[00:00] <shiftingcontrol>  i downloaded a file from code.google.com and package din have ./configure how can i install tad file ?
[00:00] <hiexpo> pidgin don't need that
[00:00] <lynx--_> hiexpo: I got it from here: http://code.google.com/p/scanmem/
[00:00] <lynx--_> this is a link to the script
[00:00] <lynx--_> http://pastebin.com/eSxAD5xf
[00:00] <WACOMalt> Anybody with Jack experience in Ubuntu studio?
[00:00] <paddy_> when i use `time` with -a I get `-a: command not found`, what is wrong?
[00:01] <lynx--_> I suggest taking a look at lin 114
[00:01] <lynx--_> that's the one that gives me errors
[00:01] <lynx--_> I even try running it from the taskbar in gnome
[00:01] <lynx--_> Applications -> Games -> Game Conqueror
[00:01] <lynx--_> it still doesn't work
[00:01] <lynx--_> I tried both making scanmem with gameconqueror, and installing, and also installing from two ubuntu .deb packages
[00:02] <RetroGamer> hi guys...hoping you can help, apt isn't working for me...it keeps getting stuck at "waiting for headers" no matter what I try (apt-get update was the last attempt) yet the repo in my sources.list is pinging fine
[00:02] <lynx--_> gameconqueror_0.12-1~svn20100926-0ubuntu1_all.deb
[00:02] <Cmdr_W_T_Riker> paddy_: the argument time takes will be executed and time, among other things, measures how much time it took to run it.
[00:02] <lynx--_> hiexpo: I got it from here: http://code.google.com/p/scanmem/
[00:02] <lynx--_> this is a link to the script itself: http://pastebin.com/eSxAD5xf
[00:02] <Cmdr_W_T_Riker> paddy_: so 'time -a' will end up in time trying to execute -a
[00:02] <WACOMalt> is there a JAck audio interface channel?
[00:03] <anygivenname> VirusTB: tar -zxvf nameof.tar.gz  only listed the files in it
[00:03] <paddy_> Cmdr_W_T_Riker, but -a is an command line option for time
[00:03] <gaveen> shiftingcontrol, depends on the type of build system it uses. What's the package?
[00:03] <lynx--_> is ntpdate 0.pool.ntp.org && hwclock -w a reliable way of setting the date and time?
[00:03] <paddy_> Cmdr_W_T_Riker, see man time
[00:03] <anygivenname> how to insall it ?
[00:03] <lynx--_> does it account for switching from daylight savings to standard since it was switched?
[00:03] <hiexpo> lynx--_, ok i am looking at it > one sec
[00:03] <WACOMalt> Where can I get help with Jack Audio system?
[00:04] <lynx--_> Is there a program that automatically sets ALSA to record from what is being played?
[00:04] <lynx--_> I can do it manually, but is there a way to set it to do it by default
[00:04] <lynx--_> like TotalRecorder
[00:04] <Cmdr_W_T_Riker> paddy_: hmm you're right :-) i don't know what's happening there.
[00:04] <gaveen> WACOMalt, Try #jack
[00:05] <shiftingcontrol> gaveen:think it is using cmake not make,http://code.google.com/p/speedcrunch
[00:05] <gaveen> shiftingcontrol, let me check
[00:06] <paddy_> the program `time` won't accept any options specified in it's man page and instead tries to execute them, what is wrong?
[00:06] <shiftingcontrol> gaveen:sure i ll wait
[00:06] <kazoo> How can get my computer's information?
[00:06] <kazoo> like the arch processor etc.
[00:06] <dalaristmobile> So I have a Realtek NIC that doesn't work on boot, or in a live cd, but if I run /etc/init.d/networking restart it works but only negotiates a 10mbps connection.  Anyone have any ideas of where I should head to get this fixed?
[00:07] <paddy_> kazoo, cpuinfo
[00:07] <jpds> kazoo: "sudo lshw"
[00:07] <paddy_> !cpuinfo
[00:07] <hiexpo> lynx--_, ok you hee /
[00:07] <lynx--_> I hee /
[00:07] <hiexpo> ^ here
[00:07] <hiexpo> ^ here
[00:07] <lynx--_> I'm here
[00:07] <rallias> does anyone know if there is a perl implementation of php?
[00:07] <shiftingcontrol> kazoo:uname -m
[00:07] <wendico> hi
[00:08] <hiexpo> lynx--_,  ok why tou decide to do this way just install the ppa
[00:08] <paddy_> kazoo, nano /proc/cpuinfo
[00:08] <lynx--_> what's the ppa
[00:08] <hiexpo> ^ you
[00:08] <lynx--_> oh yeah
[00:08] <lynx--_> well
[00:08] <lynx--_> I tried both packages, both PPA and DEB
[00:08] <lynx--_> it still didn't work
[00:08] <paddy_> kazoo, This one is a bit safer: less /proc/cpuinfo
[00:08] <FloodBot4> lynx--_: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[00:08] <gaveen> shiftingcontrol, You need either cmake or qmake. Try these instructions: http://gitorious.org/speedcrunch/mainline/blobs/master/INSTALL
[00:08] <lynx--_> so I tried compiling it manually
[00:09] <lynx--_> it kept giving me that requires error message
[00:09] <hiexpo> you have a deb package ? ltnx-
[00:09] <jpds> shiftingcontrol: By the way, that shows the arch of the current running kernel, not what the CPU is capable of.
[00:09] <paddy_> the program `time` won't accept any options specified in it's man page and instead tries to execute them, what is wrong?
[00:09] <lynx--_> yes, but I'm not using it
[00:09] <RetroGamer> hi guys...hoping you can help, apt isn't working for me...it keeps getting stuck at "waiting for headers" no matter what I try (apt-get update was the last attempt) yet the repo in my sources.list is pinging fine
[00:09] <shiftingcontrol> jpds:yep he asked arch
[00:09] <hiexpo> lynx--_,  why debs are great
[00:09] <lynx--_> I uninstalled the PPA and DEB and used http://code.google.com/p/scanmem/
[00:09] <vulcan_hacker> rallias, i develop in both perl and php, i havent heard anything like that... why dont you ask in #perl ?
[00:09] <shiftingcontrol> gaveen:thanks hust now installed cmake and trying
[00:09] <lynx--_> I used the scanmem-0.11.tar.gz and typed ./configure --enable-gui && make; make install
[00:09] <RetroGamer> are my messages actually getting through to the channel?!
[00:09] <rallias> vulcan_hacker: thanks
[00:09] <airtonix> No
[00:09] <DrkShadow> help? $ ls -l bin/rsync: -rwxr-xr-x 1 drkshadow drkshadow 829167 2010-04-09 19:07 bin/rsync; $ bin/rsync: -bash: bin/rsync: No such file or directory
[00:10] <lynx--_> it still said  File "/usr/local/share/gameconqueror/GameConqueror.py", line 114, in __init__ self.builder.add_from_file(os.path.join(WORK_DIR, 'GameConqueror.xml'))
[00:10] <lynx--_> gobject.GError: Unhandled tag: 'requires'
[00:10] <daftykins> RetroGamer: *crackle* yep
[00:10] <hiexpo> ok did you read the dependencies it nneds first
[00:10] <lynx--_> I'm using the latest version of GTK
[00:10] <lynx--_> I'm using the latest version of PyGTK
[00:10] <vulcan_hacker> rallias, ur welcome
[00:10] <lynx--_> yes
[00:10] <airtonix> DrkShadow, why is /bin/rsync owned by you and not root ?
[00:10] <daftykins> RetroGamer: pinging from the same PC?
[00:10] <wendico> im trying to install offline mi wifi rt3090 with the deb pacage from http:// ppa.launchpad. net/markus- tisoft/ rt3090 but when i executed it tells me that i need a dependenci : dkms, what is this? should i donwload that packet to?
[00:10] <lynx--_> all it needed was libreadline6, which I have
[00:10] <DrkShadow> airtonix: _not_ /bin. bin/rsync. Local directory.
[00:11] <daftykins> wendico: yes, it's the kernel module system
[00:11] <RetroGamer> daftykins, indeed...I'm not sure whats wrong with it
[00:11] <hiexpo> lynx--_,  scanmem requires libreadline to read commands interactively, and /proc must be mounted.
[00:11] <airtonix> DrkShadow, ok
[00:11] <airtonix> DrkShadow, if you are trying to run local copy, you need to put ./ infront of it... : ./bin/rsync
[00:11] <daftykins> RetroGamer: checked all your settings, network gateway, DNS, proxy? not using a web proxy at all?
[00:11] <DrkShadow> airtonix: omfg... when did that come about?? I've never had to use ./ if it had a directory in front.
[00:12] <mac9416> !offline > wendico
[00:12] <airtonix> DrkShadow, since ... forever ?
[00:12] <DrkShadow> $ ./bin/rsync: -bash: ./bin/rsync: No such file or directory
[00:12] <mac9416> wendico, you should also look at Keryx.  http://keryxproject.org
[00:12] <RetroGamer> daftykins, aye I checked all that...its at this point that I would usually purge the program and reinstall....but its apt ><
[00:12] <DrkShadow> /dev/sda1 on / type ext4 (rw,errors=remount-ro) -- so.. not something about noexec being set..
[00:12] <airtonix> DrkShadow, just a gues but is that "bin" dir actually == ~/bin ?
[00:13] <DrkShadow> /home/drkshadow/rsync-dev/bin/rsync
[00:13] <airtonix> DrkShadow, so have you tried using full absolute path ?
[00:13] <daftykins> RetroGamer: is it physical or a VM?
[00:13] <wendico> daftykins: mac9416: taking a look at your advices, thanks
[00:13] <DrkShadow> $ /home/andrew/rsync-dev/bin/rsync: -bash: /home/andrew/rsync-dev/bin/rsync: No such file or directory
[00:13] <paddy_> the program `time` won't accept any options specified in it's man page and instead tries to execute them, what is wrong?
[00:13] <lynx--_> so hiexpo
[00:13] <RetroGamer> daftykins, physical
[00:13] <lynx--_> what do I do
[00:13]  * DrkShadow is confused :-)
[00:13] <lynx--_> I searched for the erropr message on google or similar types
[00:13] <lynx--_> It seems like it has to do with a PyGTK version issue
[00:13] <airtonix> DrkShadow, btw if you put files in ~/bin then they are automatically put on the $PATH for your users session by virtue of the ~/.profiles actions
[00:14] <RetroGamer> daftykins, I'm on it now...the internet is otherwise working fine
[00:14] <daftykins> RetroGamer: hmm can you wireshark it from another box, or backup sources.list and try another mirror for fun?
[00:14] <hiexpo> tru to build with out gui
[00:14] <mac9416> wendico, the problem is that most software packages depend on others and those in turn depend on even more. It takes software like Keryx to find all those dependencies for you. Hope that makes sense.  :-)
[00:14] <tr3nton> im trying to figure out where monitor settings are stored - I can't seem to find any xorg.conf file - or is it just detected at boot time and not in any config file?
[00:14] <hiexpo> try
[00:14] <RetroGamer> daftykins, I have a UNR netbook...does it use the same package store?
[00:14] <airtonix> DrkShadow, /home/andrew/rsync-dev/bin/rsync
[00:14] <daftykins> RetroGamer: have to admit i have no idea
[00:14] <DrkShadow> ugh, I included too much info there.
[00:15] <RetroGamer> daftykins, I shall check sources.list
[00:15] <DrkShadow> airtonix: anyway, the result is as given: file not fonud.
[00:15] <airtonix> DrkShadow, does that rsync bin have to live at that exact location ?
[00:15] <tr3nton> i.e. if I go into gnome-monitor-settings and changed settings and apply, where is that saved to?
[00:15] <DrkShadow> airtonix: well, I'm going to say yes.
[00:15] <wendico> mac9416: if i use the synaptic package option to "export" a package from this computer will be like an "instaler" or thats why you link me to the keryx project so i can do that xd?
[00:15] <airtonix> DrkShadow, are in the same directory as "rsync" ?
[00:15] <tr3nton> gnome-display-properties rather
[00:15] <DrkShadow> airtonix: huh?
[00:15] <hiexpo> DrkShadow, why file not found no such dir    ?
[00:16] <airtonix> DrkShadow, cd /home/andrew/rsync-dev/bin
[00:16] <DrkShadow> airtonix: just did that.. same thing: -bash: ./rsync: No such file or directory. ls -l rsync: -rwxr-xr-x 1 drkshadow drkshadow 829167 2010-04-09 19:07 rsync
[00:17] <lynx--_> It seems like it has to do with a PyGTK version issue
[00:17] <lynx--_> It seems like it has to do with a PyGTK version issue!
[00:17] <RetroGamer> daftykins, same sources and it works fine under UNR...something on this laptop has gone wrong
[00:17] <wendico> by the way, it is posible to update offline? just download all the upgrades (like a mocosoft service pack) and then install them in offline computers? is it easy?
[00:17] <DrkShadow> airtronix: also copied it to ~/rsync-dev, ./rsync, same thing: file not found.
[00:17] <airtonix> DrkShadow, sorry no idea.. too early in the morning for me
[00:17] <DrkShadow> If it's possible it's a library issue, that's it -- it was compiled on a previous (7.x? 8.x?) version of ubuntu..
[00:18] <DrkShadow> but I think it should throw an error, not file not found, if that's the issue.
[00:18] <airtonix> DrkShadow, yeah and it is set as executable right ?
[00:18] <tr3nton> !X11
[00:18] <daftykins> RetroGamer: do both resolv.conf's link to the router IP or the ISP's DNS? (or opendns/google DNS etc?)
[00:18] <DrkShadow> but yes.. that seems to have been it. I recompiled, it works not..
[00:18] <DrkShadow> airtonix: check out the ls :-/
[00:19] <dli> anyone to help me with bug #500658 ?
[00:19] <dli> mouse pointer stuck at the upper-left corner of screen
[00:20] <RetroGamer> daftykins, it keeps saying something about retriving packages from unauthenticated sources......
[00:20] <LucidGuy> I want to simply list all the connections on a specific device(or all) and live current transfer speeds.  Netstat? syntax?
[00:20] <airtonix> dli, if you are trying to inspire people to help you then more information is helpful.
[00:20] <dli> airtonix, mouse pointer stuck at the top-left corner and can not be moved anymore, I can still click though
[00:20] <RetroGamer> daftykins, when I do an apt-get install: WARNING: The following packages cannot be authenticated!
[00:20] <daftykins> RetroGamer: on the problematic one?
[00:21] <daftykins> or UNR?
[00:21] <RetroGamer> daftykins, aye
[00:21] <RetroGamer> UNR is fine
[00:21] <daftykins> you must have a repo that you've not imported a key for
[00:21] <hiexpo> dli, get a cat it will move
[00:21] <airtonix> dli, are you using synergy? are you using VNC or Rdp or Freenx ?
[00:21] <RetroGamer> daftykins, I haven't added any repos
[00:21] <dli> airtonix, no, native X server, i.e., on localhost
[00:22] <xangua> RetroGamer: then next time you add extra repositories remember to also add the gpg key; sudo add-apt-repository "ppa's namee" does both
[00:22] <RetroGamer> xangua, I haven't got any extra repos
[00:22] <dli> airtonix, not from vnc, nx, or the rdp (never heard of)
[00:22] <RetroGamer> xangua, I am trying to install python-pygame from the ubuntu main
[00:23] <daftykins> RetroGamer: can you pastebin the exact error and your sources?
[00:23] <RetroGamer> daftykins, sure one sec
[00:23] <dli> airtonix, the bug was initially reported in 2009, but still affect me running 10.10: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xserver-xorg-input-synaptics/+bug/500658
[00:23] <vulcan_hacker> dli, do you have touch screen on your system?
[00:23] <dli> vulcan_hacker, no, only touchpad
[00:24] <airtonix> dli, address the room, i was merely prompting you to be more descriptive.
[00:24] <wendico> uff with the offline help of ubottu i cant do with synaptic, i cant generate the offline pacackes, i will give it a try with the keryxproject
[00:24] <airtonix> dli, and keep it on one line
[00:24] <dli> vulcan_hacker, the bug reported as: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xserver-xorg-input-synaptics/+bug/500658
[00:25] <chipmonkduck> help ﻿I need to change the directory where pan tries to write files
[00:25] <dli> vulcan_hacker, I should test whether this bug affects ubuntu only. never had this in debian, arch, or gentoo
[00:26] <jiohdi> chipmonkduck: what kind of files?
[00:26] <vulcan_hacker> dli, then i have no idea... but i had lot of experience TRYING to fix that issue with touchscreen on my hp tx1000... pointer used to stick on the top left edge... click worked, mouse worked, touchpad worked, but not touch... different story i guess
[00:26] <vulcan_hacker> dli, not touchscreen*
[00:27] <jiohdi> chipmonkduck: do you mean the download files?
[00:27] <dli> vulcan_hacker, did you try the workaround I found, "Alt-F7" to recover the pointer
[00:27] <jiohdi> like pictures?
[00:27] <RetroGamer> daftykins, I now appear to have lost my right click and c+p functionality.........
[00:27] <chipmonkduck> am downloading multipart (several rar files) of a cough movie
[00:28] <jiohdi> chipmonkduck: shift-s
[00:28] <jiohdi> it opens a dialogue you can point to any folder or create a new one
[00:28] <chipmonkduck> and i do that where?
[00:28] <r3sno> i am running hardy and trying setup my wifi netowkr. when i start the unlock on the "network settings" i get could not authenticate. an unexpected error has occured
[00:28] <jiohdi> chipmonkduck: on the file you wish to down load
[00:28] <vulcan_hacker> dli, no, did not know that... tried many things... mostly with /etc/X11/xorg.conf (not 100% sure about the exact file)... and eGalaxTouch
[00:29] <chipmonkduck> am loading list from *.nzb file
[00:29] <dli> vulcan_hacker, eventually, it was a touchscreen driver bug, I suppose?
[00:29] <daftykins> chipmonkduck: things of that nature can't be helped with in here
[00:29] <jiohdi> chipmonkduck: sorry never tried one of those
[00:29] <dli> vulcan_hacker, I still can not decide whether this is a touchpad(synaptics) bug or a more general X bug
[00:30] <DrkShadow> When I was restoring some database backups I overwrote the "mysql" database. That caused mysql to crap itself.. at this point I'd like to remove _everything_ mysql (apt-get remove --purge doesn't delete databases) and reinstall.. how do I do that?
[00:32] <tr3nton> !xrandr
[00:32] <r3sno> DrkShadow: if purge doesnt do it, youd have to login and do it manually
[00:33] <DrkShadow> actually, I think it's that I removed mysql-server rather than mysql-server-5.1
[00:35] <anygivenname> pls somebody tell e how do I install .tar.gz ?
[00:35] <xangua> !compile | anygivenname
[00:36] <tr3nton> is it possible to disable overscan from ~/.config/monitors.xml directly?
[00:37] <anygivenname> what compile!!!
[00:37] <Angstrom_> oh yeah, I like how these shittie turds don't answer my question

[00:39] <squ1d1> is there a way to repair an istallation without losing your personal files?s
[00:40] <ectospasm> squ1d1: usually if you have /home on a separate partition it's much easier
[00:40] <dli> squ1d1, if you can back up /home, not a problem
[00:40] <psusi> you don't need a separate /home partition, just do not check the format box when you reinstall
[00:41] <psusi> manual partition and leave format unchecked
[00:41] <dli> squ1d1, what to repair? what's broken
[00:41] <ectospasm> psusi: but it's MUCH easier to backup and reinstall the OS if its on a separate partition.
[00:42] <ectospasm> ...otherwise you have old files getting in the way
[00:42] <psusi> ectospasm, the installer will delete them just fine
[00:43] <squ1d1> Dli, everytime I logoff my user for more then 10 minutes or shut down it acts odd and goes to the boot loading screen or crashes
[00:43] <squ1d1> Im not thinking its a kernel panic
[00:43] <ectospasm> psusi: I wouldn't trust that
[00:43] <psusi> ectospasm, do you have any rational reason not to or just spreading fud?
[00:43] <ectospasm> psusi: but I do things the old school way, so...
[00:44] <dli> squ1d1, but it runs smoothly as long as you are logged in
[00:44] <ribas> guys, hi
[00:44] <squ1d1> yea.
[00:44] <squ1d1> Dli, yea.
[00:44] <ribas> forgot the disk label in menu.cfg to install from a usb from unetbootin
[00:44] <Oins> Hi. I have a question about networking. If my IP Range starts from 192.168.0.100 and i have the submask /24, then the IP 192.168.0.200 should be available, or not?
[00:45] <ribas> Annoying "can't find cdrom" message when installing with the debian installer
[00:45] <ectospasm> Oins: .200 should be available
[00:45] <dli> squ1d1, that's very interesting, what do you mean "crash"?
[00:45] <Oins> ectospasm: ok, my router sux
[00:45] <ectospasm> Oins: .1 - .254 should be available in /24
[00:45] <ectospasm> Oins: not necessarily
[00:45] <Oins> ectospasm: thanks
[00:45] <ribas> I can mount the sdb1 to /cdrom but that would be cheating ;)
[00:45] <jrib> Oins: those types of questions should really be in a place like ##networking
[00:46] <JEHD> bonsoir à tous et à toutes
[00:46] <ectospasm> Oins: your router may be limiting it to less than /24
[00:46] <ribas> Anyone knows of the boot switch ? is it uid?
[00:46] <jrib> !fr | JEHD
[00:46] <Oins> ectospasm: i can setup the start IP at the router DHCP. this is 192.168.0.100 ... and the Pool-Size (should be tha mask) is 24
[00:46] <squ1d1> Dli, I mean a command line cursor blinging no GUI. Lights are on, nobodies home.
[00:46] <Oins> ectospasm: but i cant set the .200 at the static mac table... message: "wrong ip, change DHCP settings"

[00:48] <ectospasm> Oins: sounds like your router is deficient
[00:48] <dli> anygivenname, usually, you untar it "tar zxvf foo.tar.gz", cd to the foler, read INSTALL, README
[00:48] <jrib> anygivenname: what exactly do you want to install?
[00:48] <juanmaperraco> thank!
[00:48] <ribas> i should find my own solution but have lost lots of time in google ;(
[00:48] <dli> squ1d1, it sounds like a broken upstart (init) to me.
[00:48] <jrt4> I just did a clean reinstall of Ubuntu (10.04-->10.10). Everything was working fine for months before. Now, whenever I do CPU intensive work, my computer suddenly shuts off (this often happens with overheating). How can I ensure that ACPI thermal regulation is working properly? Which logs could I look at for errors?
[00:49] <squ1d1> Dli, so in theory, replace the init folder?
[00:49] <dli> squ1d1, you'd better run sshd on it, and try network login
[00:49] <Oins> ectospasm: seems so... :(
[00:49] <anygivenname> there is no readme nor anything in it to be read....that's why I am asking
[00:49] <hiexpo> anygivenname, what is the tar name so we can help you ?
[00:49] <jrt4> (And what else could cause a sudden shutoff besides overheating?)
[00:49] <anygivenname> utorrent
[00:49] <ectospasm> Oins: check to see if you can flash the firmware with something better, like dd-wrt
[00:50] <hiexpo> anygivenname, where you get it so we can look at it ?
[00:50] <commodore> Stupid AWN. I hate it.
[00:50] <xangua> anygivenname: you have a lot of native torrent apps in repositories
[00:50] <dli> squ1d1, check your /etc/default/rcS file
[00:50] <commodore> dffdfgdfg
[00:50] <commodore> dfbdfbdfb
[00:50] <commodore> df
[00:50] <commodore> bdf

[00:50] <commodore> fb
[00:50] <hiexpo> i think utorrent is window s
[00:51] <Oins> ectospasm: already checked this. there is now better fw. it's the router from my provider (o2)
[00:51] <dli> squ1d1, something relevant could be "man insserv"
[00:51] <squ1d1> Dli,
[00:52] <squ1d1> Im not seeing anything troubling in ect/defualt/rcS
[00:52] <daftykins> Oins: are you trying to set a static DHCP lease on an O2 branded netgear DG934G?
[00:52] <spoljo> Is it safe to run custom scripts at startup from /etc/rc.local?
[00:52] <dli> squ1d1, could be the video driver (X) also, try to force using the vesa driver and see
[00:53] <hiexpo> anygivenname, use deludge
[00:53] <dli> squ1d1, it's either the init system or X to me
[00:53] <DrkShadow> gawd.. that took forever. I'm guessing it's mysql-common that messed things up (removed things, deleted files, reinstalled all of mysql _except_ mysql-common)
[00:53] <squ1d1> Dli, would reinstalling ubuntu be a crime.
[00:54] <anygivenname> where is that?
[00:54] <Oins> daftykins: i think it's not a netgear... it's named ZyXEL ...
[00:54] <mbrochh> hello everyone. as of ubuntu 10.10 i get a window saying "sim pin unlock required" everytime i boot. How can I get rid of this?
[00:54] <dli> squ1d1, no, just don't want to be caught by the same bug again
[00:54] <squ1d1> Im thinking about attempting to reinstall
[00:54] <nats> hello,everyone!!
[00:54] <squ1d1> see where it goes
[00:55] <squ1d1> thank you though Dli.
[00:55] <Oins> daftykins: static ip at my pc should work, but i tried to setup the DHCP from the router
[00:55] <dli> squ1d1, backup your /home, /etc, maybe, /var (you should know, if it's important to you), use rsync -avxAH, or simply: cp -av
[00:55] <daftykins> Oins: ah ok, saw one of the above at mine. are you doing a static DHCP lease and it won't let you select .200 as the IP?
[00:55] <daftykins> i know consumer netgears refuse to let you set a static lease outside the DHCP scope, which is daft
[00:55] <nats> I want to develop cortex-M0 by ubuntu?
[00:56] <nats> Can somebody help me!1
[00:56] <ectospasm> mbrochh: is your mobile phone connected to your computer?
[00:56] <nats> Nobody answer to me!!??
[00:56] <Oins> daftykins: yes right. you can assign a MAC to a IP. if i try to set .200 i get the error: "wrong ip, change DHCP settings".... the ip .110 eg works
[00:57] <daftykins> nats: i have no idea what your question means
[00:57] <daftykins> Oins: so is your DHCP start and end IP addresses set to stop way before 200?
[00:58] <daftykins> e.g. on a typical netgear, if a scope is .2 up to .20, trying to choose .21 will result in an error
[00:58] <Angelman> Ok, this is random, Ubuntu 10.10 keeps randomly freezing but then it will work after like a few seconds
[00:58] <nats> I want to use ubuntu develop to cortex-M0,but I don't know how to do !
[00:58] <hiexpo> nats, be patient if someone knows they will help you remember everyone here helps to help no money this week   :) we help to help you      > Please do not flood
[00:58] <ectospasm> Angelman: could be the desktop responsiveness bug... When it "pauses", does the HDD light go on?
[00:58] <Angelman> yeah
[00:58] <Angelman> ok ty
[00:58] <Angelman> as long as it isnt my hw
[00:59] <Oins> daftykins: lol, now it works. the "pool-size" is not the netmask.. it's the numbers of the available ip addresses....
[00:59] <daftykins> Oins: yeah a value up to 253 ?
[01:00] <daftykins> odd way of doing it
[01:00] <jrt4> I just did a clean reinstall of Ubuntu (10.04 --> 10.10). Every time I do heavy CPU intensive work, I experience sudden shutdowns (this generally happens with overheating). But everything was working fine in 10.04 for months, so I doubt a hardware problem suddenly occured right after a reinstall. It seems that the default ACPI configuration is screwed up somehow. How should I go about fixing this?
[01:00] <Angelman> yeah its the kernel
[01:00] <Oins> daftykins: yes, with the poolsize 150, it works
[01:00] <daftykins> Oins: ok i gotta run, enjoy! :)
[01:00] <anygivenname> sux
[01:00] <Oins> daftykins: too easy :D
[01:00] <Angelman> jrt4 I am going through that, you need to compile 2.26.15 rather than 2.26.22
[01:01] <Oins> Thanks for your help, guys!

[01:01] <kings> hi hello
[01:01] <GeekyAdam> !pastebin
[01:01] <jrt4> Angelman -- do you have a bug report or something I could look at to understand the cause?)
[01:01] <jrt4> (Thanks, by the way)
[01:01] <Angelman> https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/131094
[01:01] <ectospasm> Angelman: there's a link to a launchpad bug describing the problem.  May be fixed in 2.6.36, which you'll find PPAs for
[01:01] <ectospasm> I haven't had the problem since I upgraded to 10.10
[01:02] <Angelman> right, but I know .15 works I forgot about this bug
[01:02] <kings> how are u doing hope all things are o.k with u
[01:02] <Angelman> not just Ubuntu suffers from this issue
[01:02] <Angelman> they need to just get .35 out of RC
[01:03] <jrt4> Angelman, I'm not having problems with Ubuntu slowing down or freezing. My PC is literally shutting off -- i.e. suddenly powering down.
[01:03] <GeekyAdam> i stopped vsftpd and now it won't start back up :( http://paste.ubuntu.com/529016/
[01:03] <jrt4> That bug report seems to be dealing with something else.
[01:03] <Angelman> jrt4 boot up and do a memtest from the Ubuntu disk
[01:04] <ectospasm> jrt4: right, the bug isn't about shutting down.  Check your temperature gauges
[01:04] <kings> hi hello
[01:04] <dli> jrt4, are you sure it's not overheating, if you can monitor cpu/video card temp
[01:04] <Angelman> make sure your ram isnt dieing too lol
[01:04] <Angelman> clean out the cathair :-P
[01:04] <jrt4> ectospasm, As I said -- it seems like it is overheating. My question is why. It wasn't happening at all prior to the upgrade.
[01:04] <ectospasm> jrt4: look into lm_sensors
[01:04] <jrt4> The upgrade didn't magically fill my fans with cathair.
[01:05] <kings> hi hello how are doing?
[01:05] <Angelman> jrt4 clean out the dust and cathair recently?
[01:05] <jrt4> Something must be screwed in ACPI.
[01:05] <ectospasm> jrt4: could be a driver for a sensor changed, and you've uncovered a bug.
[01:05] <Angelman> hey I went through this a few weeks ago lol I was blaming Ubuntu up and down
[01:05] <anon33_> i'm trying to launch gnome-color-profiles from the command line but I'm finding no luck - can anyone help me find the executable?
[01:05] <jrt4> ectospasm, OK. How would I diagnose this so that I can file a useful bug report. I'm not seeing anything in the logs.
[01:06] <ectospasm> jrt4: like I said, look into lm_sensors logs.  I haven't looked into them in some time
[01:06] <ectospasm> jrt4: ... so I don't know where to guide you
[01:06] <jrt4> ectospasm, Oh, sorry. I missed when you said that. I'll take a look. Thanks a bunch.
[01:06] <xrdodrx> how do I disable ubuntu's notifications?
[01:07] <alteregoa> xrd: no clue
[01:07] <Angelman> im sure Ubuntu will have a fix for this ty :)
[01:07] <dli> xrdodrx, remove the origin: sudo apt-get remove update-notifier
[01:07] <alteregoa> xrd: maybe some cryptic setting in a xml file
[01:08] <alteregoa> ubuntu should install it automaticly without the crap around
[01:08] <alteregoa> like osx
[01:08] <alteregoa> thank god ubuntu leaving x11
[01:08] <xrdodrx> dli, is there a way to disable only certain notifications
[01:08] <xrdodrx> !offtopic | alteregoa
[01:08] <dli> xrdodrx, then, right click, maybe, there's something there
[01:08] <alteregoa> !offtopic banana
[01:09] <xrdodrx> dli, nope
[01:09] <dli> xrdodrx, as you can see, I don't have update-notifier, couldn't help much on that
[01:10] <jrt4> ectospasm, I don't have an lm_sensors log file and none of the system log files (syslog, messages, kern.log) have anything related to lm_sensors in them. Any other suggestions?
[01:11] <ectospasm> jrt4: nope, sorry
[01:11] <jrt4> (Searches for "temp" and "thermal"  also aren't turning anything up ...)(
[01:11] <ectospasm> jrt4: maybe find the time of the last boot in messages or syslog, and find that
[01:11] <mbrochh> hello everyone. as of ubuntu 10.10 i get a window saying "sim pin unlock required" everytime i boot. How can I get rid of this?
[01:11] <mbrochh> ectospasm, no it is not
[01:11] <jrt4> ectospasm, That was the first thing I did, and there is nothing.
[01:12] <ectospasm> jrt4: out of luck then
[01:12] <jrt4> ectospasm, Should I use sleeping pills or a plastic grocery bag?
[01:12] <dli> mbrochh, are you running bluetooth?
[01:12] <ectospasm> jrt4: razor blades, so much more emo
[01:12] <mbrochh> dli, yes the bluetooth icon on my laptop i son
[01:13] <jrt4> :) Thanks anyway. I'll go post something on a few forums ...
[01:13] <ectospasm> mbrochh: sounds like your Bluetooth stack is trying to connect to your mobile phone
[01:13] <dli> mbrochh, and the message is probably from bluetooth applet, maybe, you can supply the sim pin, or blacklist the phone bluetooth in applet
[01:14] <mbrochh> ecolitan, ok i disabled bluetooth... i BET when i login again it will be enabled again...
[01:14] <mbrochh> i will try, brb
[01:14] <ectospasm> um...
[01:15] <mbrochh> ectospasm, dli, bluetooth was not the issue
[01:15] <mbrochh> it is still off but the message persists
[01:16] <dli> mbrochh, how did you disable bluetooth?
[01:16] <mbrochh> it says the mobilebroadband device ericsson f3507g requires a sim pin code before it can be used
[01:16] <dli> mbrochh, from your WLAN card, then
[01:16] <mbrochh> dli using the bluetooth icon in the system bar
[01:16] <mbrochh> dli yes probabli
[01:16] <mbrochh> i have this card for ages and never saw this message
[01:16] <mbrochh> i just want it to shut the fuck up :)
[01:16] <mbrochh> i dont know any pin
[01:16] <dli> mbrochh, disable bluetooth in /etc/init.d/
[01:17] <h00k> !language | mbrochh
[01:17] <mbrochh> hehehe
[01:17] <dli> mbrochh, or even remove the bluetooth* bluez* package
[01:17] <dli> mbrochh, then, you are sure
[01:17] <dli> mbrochh, sudo apt-get remove "bluetooth*" "bluez*"
[01:18] <ribas> why don't you disable the bluetooth in the bios if you don't use it?
[01:19] <mbrochh> ribas: ok i will try that... but still i dont think the message is related to bluetooth at all

[01:32] <mbreslin> smw: I haven't used the program yet so that seemed the best solution, in the future is there some standard way to do what I asked?
[01:33] <blakkheim> hvipen: tip: don't use windows
[01:33] <mbreslin> smw: also, when installing the tarball will I be able to upgrade later with apt-get?
[01:33] <smw> mbreslin, update a package if you only have a tarball?
[01:33] <mbreslin> smw: correct
[01:33] <hvipen> have to use them all
[01:33] <smw> mbreslin, then you need to uninstall the tarball
[01:33] <ka1ser> hvipen: that should be because of your network
[01:34] <onewing> I don't really know what else I'm looking for in the syslog for more information
[01:34] <hvipen> yea prob -
[01:34] <smw> mbreslin, tarballs and packages don't mix. If you are good, you could create your own package from a tarball...
[01:34] <hvipen> i have 100 fullduplex on all
[01:34] <smw> mbreslin, however, that is considered advanced.
[01:34] <mbreslin> I see, so I guess it doesn't matter uninstalling provided I keep the config files
[01:34] <mbreslin> thanks
[01:35] <smw> mbreslin, np

[01:36] <theSamowar> i have a question
[01:36] <DavidJonas> Hi guys, I really need help here. I'm desperately trying to figure out a network problem. I have a router connected to the internet and i am Trying to acess it through a universal repeater. Aparently everything is fine, i get an ip from the main router through dhcp but somehow i cant ping it. Nothing passes through the repeater
[01:37] <theSamowar> can it be that u can install ubuntu but kubuntu per se doesnt want to get installed and has hardware issues?
[01:37] <onewing> The same issue seemed to appear in opensuse, but there was a patch available that seemed to correct the issue with wpa supplicant
[01:37] <theSamowar> like that there are differences between gnome and kde
[01:38] <robbiedeal> good evening everyone
[01:38] <Jef91> What is the package name for the GUI installer in Ubuntu 10.10?
[01:38] <smw> Jef91, ubiquity?
[01:39] <Jef91> thanks smw
[01:39] <smw> Jef91, ubiquity-frontend-gtk
[01:39] <robbiedeal> anyone around that might be able to give me a little partitioning advice?
[01:40] <smw> robbiedeal, sure
[01:40] <robbiedeal> thanks smw
[01:40] <smw> robbiedeal, desktop or server?
[01:40] <robbiedeal> gaming desktop install, 2x 500gb sata drives 7200primary, 5400secondary, sole ubuntu install
[01:41] <robbiedeal> well gaming will be the primary time spent, but it will be used for other things hehe
[01:41] <smw> robbiedeal, wow. ubuntu gets both hard drives?
[01:41] <mbrochh> dli, ectospasm disabling WWAN in by BIOS solved the problem..
[01:42] <robbiedeal> yep, everything i do with windows (games wise) runs beautifully in wine, so im finally ditching windows haha
[01:42] <robbiedeal> i have VBox for anything that i need windows for =D
[01:42] <smw> robbiedeal, wow, that is good to know :-)
[01:42] <smw> robbiedeal, ok, I suggest making an LVM
[01:43] <mbrochh> now on the the next one... I want to use USA International (AltGr dead keys).. i added this layout in my keyboard preferences, yet everytime i reboot, german is selected again... sometimes in the system bar it even shows USA but i only get german keys
[01:43] <smw> robbiedeal, that will allow you to make both hardrives look like one
[01:43] <mbrochh> how can i ensure that USA layout is being activated on startup?
[01:43] <theSamowar> sorry that i spammed the channel... so i want to ask again in one question: is it possible that i can install ubuntu on my computer but if i try to install kubuntu i get errors? IS there somehow a difference between hardware compatibility between gnome and kde?
[01:43] <hey_joe> there used to be an old application that would monitor network traffic and display images from the feed...
[01:43] <hey_joe> anyone remember what i am talking about?
[01:43] <hey_joe> if i recall, it was in a ubuntu repo recently last time i used it
[01:43] <tangodown40> how would I go about upgrading my kernel to 2.6.36?
[01:44] <smw> theSamowar, no difference
[01:44] <smw> robbiedeal, I suggest 100GB for / (unless you think you need more) and twice ram for swap
[01:44] <smw> robbiedeal, the rest can be /home
[01:44] <hey_joe> driftnet
[01:44] <b0ngl0ad> anybody from florida here
[01:44] <robbiedeal> smw, ok, jotting this down, will need to do a little research on LMV also, had nto heard of it before now
[01:44] <b0ngl0ad> wrong channel
[01:44] <theSamowar> smw:  but how can it be then that i just installed my computer with ubuntu but everytime i try to install kubuntu he cannot go on anymore and suddenly falls into the "terminal mode" showing me a lot of problems
[01:45] <smw> robbiedeal, actually, will you need alot of hdd space for /home?
[01:45] <onewing> O, I'm able to confirm that I am able to connect if authentication is turned off.
[01:45] <smw> robbiedeal, where do you store games?
[01:46] <onewing> It just seems that WPA supplicant is failing
[01:46] <robbiedeal> usually in /home/user/games
[01:46] <robbiedeal> but again i dont really know if the way i am doing it is the most efficient haha
[01:46] <smw> robbiedeal, You have too much hard drive space
[01:47] <smw> robbiedeal, it is hard to think about efficiency with that much hdd space :-P
[01:47] <robbiedeal> hahaha sorry =\
[01:47] <onewing> So my wireless is able to connect if I turn authentication off on the router, but WPA Supplicant fails when I need to authenticate
[01:47] <smw> robbiedeal, you could setup one harddrive for wine and windows and the other for linux
[01:47] <david_> hello
[01:48] <david_> anyone help with rules?
[01:48] <LinuxReign> I would erradicate all the propietary software If I could.....
[01:48] <robbiedeal> with it being sole ubuntu should i worry about a /boot partition?
[01:48] <LinuxReign> :P
[01:48] <smw> david_, what rules?
[01:48] <david_> well been years since i used irc
[01:48] <smw> robbiedeal, the truth is that separating anything other than data dirs is a waste of time
[01:48] <david_> i know there was some rules what we could talk about and such
[01:49] <smw> robbiedeal, if this was a server, I would say differently
[01:49] <robbiedeal> hmmm, so /, swap, and /home should be more than enough seperation?
[01:49] <smw> david_, the rule is, ubuntu support only in this room. Everything else in #ubuntu-offtopic
[01:49] <david_> k
[01:50] <david_> thx
[01:50] <smw> david_, the other rule is don't annoy people
[01:50] <david_> lol
[01:50] <david_> i will try
[01:50] <smw> david_, common sense and you are good ;-)
[01:50] <Koopa516> Hmm...
[01:50] <david_> looking for good place to replace p2p
[01:50] <smw> robbiedeal, yeah. I think that is pretty good
[01:51] <theSamowar> is there a way of showing the close, minimize and expand icons on the edge in the top right corner instead of top left?
[01:51] <smw> david_, replace what p2p?
[01:51] <david_> pretty much a noob
[01:51] <robbiedeal> ok thank you very much smw, just getting some important stuff backed up and then gonna get to redoing everything
[01:51] <david_> i am in states
[01:51] <david_> new things going on here with p2p
[01:52] <hd1> trying to prepare a custom meerkat image for ec2... not sure how to direct dpkg to install packages + dependencies with a different root, any idea?
[01:52] <smw> robbiedeal, cool. You may want to use raid with that much hd space. lol
[01:52] <smw> robbiedeal, that way, if one hard drive fails, you don't lose data
[01:53] <smw> hd1, why not use the official image and modify it?
[01:53] <sacarlson> david_:  p2p you mean like file shareing like torrents?
[01:53] <david_> yeah
[01:53] <smw> david_, what about torrents?
[01:53] <david_> should i not talk about it on here?
[01:53] <flyeng4> can I get some help getting my nfs server going ... http://pastebin.com/DR5q32Sq
[01:54] <sacarlson> !torrent
[01:54] <hd1> smw: the official image is 15gb, we need a 10gb image and custom packages on it
[01:54] <robbiedeal> smw, its a laptop with 2 internals, 1 model too early for native raid support through bios, i do have a 2tb external that i am doing backups of important data to though
[01:54] <smw> hd1, ok
[01:54] <hd1> smw: and boss is a cheapskate
[01:54] <david_> well many friends have gotten letters from comcast about them tracking downloads as of a month ago
[01:55] <hd1> in a perfect world, I'd do as you suggest, but this is the somewhat less perfect, real world
[01:55] <hd1> honestly, in a perfect world, I'd not need to work, but again...
[01:55] <david_> trying to stay hidden or at least not get in any trouble
[01:55] <h00k> david_: if you're talking about piracy, that isn't appropriate here.
[01:55] <david_> thx hook
[01:56] <david_> i was wondering about that
[01:56] <david_> and i wasnt
[01:56] <david_> ;)
[01:56] <h00k> !piracy
[01:56] <flyeng4> not nfs gurus on?  ... http://pastebin.com/DR5q32Sq
[01:56] <smw> david_, yeah, illegal stuff falls under common sense. You are supposed to talk in PMs about that ;-)
[01:56] <hd1> where can i get a zero-day release of gcc? <g>
[01:56] <hd1> that sort of thing
[01:56] <david_> lol

[01:58] <robbiedeal> smw: one more quick question if you dont mind
[01:58] <hd1> Tomas_AU: samba
[01:58] <smw> robbiedeal, I don't mind
[01:58] <david_> i need to find a list of commands

[01:59] <robbiedeal> smw: if i copy my entire /home/user folder to a back up drive, once i get reinstalled, and reinstall the programs, can i simply drop the contents into the new /home/user folder?
[01:59] <david_> i just answered
[01:59] <jfer> Tomas_AU: to get started have  a look at samba
[01:59] <anonn> Anyone know how to submit a program to the official repository?
[01:59] <smw> robbiedeal, yep
[01:59] <robbiedeal> smw, ok thank you
[02:00] <smw> robbiedeal, just make sure you also copy the .* files
[02:00] <robbiedeal> well i was going to copy the user folder directly from /home, will that get them all if i have hidden files shown?
[02:01] <smw> robbiedeal, I have no idea. Try it out
[02:01] <smw> robbiedeal, just check that the .* files copied
[02:01] <tecnovicio> hy ppl
[02:02] <GeekyAdam> hi
[02:02] <robbiedeal> ohhh crap, just thought about something, so i guess one more question and i am betting the answer is no, will it copy properly onto an NTFS partition? that is what the external is currently set to
[02:03] <DrkShadow> So I just upgraded a server. I booted, and was somewhat stricken: Filesystem check forced. (filesystem has not been checked in 371 days.) On a server that runs all the time, how should I scan filesystems periodically? bleh :-)
[02:03] <GeekyAdam> so im running vsftpd on ubuntu server 10.04 (i think thats what came with it), but its giving me problems. anyone else have problems with it or suggest a different ftp server?
[02:03] <tecnovicio> i hava an HP with a ralink wifi card. i've just instaled 10.10 and the system freezes at boot saying the rt2800 don't respond. can anyone give me some light ? maybe a way to remove or blacklist the module?
[02:03] <GeekyAdam> Technoviking: is the system a laptop and has a wifi button you need ot switch on?
[02:03] <g0dkar_> hey, can someone help me with gwibber?
[02:04] <g0dkar_> I would like to turn off it's spell checker
[02:04] <h00k> GeekyAdam: I might suggest using sftp (with openssh-server)
[02:04] <GeekyAdam> yeah ive been using that once and awhile...but i like ftp for faster file transfers when im dicking with the server locally. i dont have ftp port open externall so if i want to ftp from home i have to use sftp but when im local i want to be able to use ftp.
[02:05] <MACK1E> anyone care to help a guy trying to convert to the ubuntu world, got a major problem with my wireless comfort 5000 microsoft keyboard, my F1 F2 keys are hosed and when I push them my machine just freezes

[02:15] <anonn> Anyone know how to submit a program to the official repository?
[02:15] <g0dkar_> xangua: a bit aggressive, but that will certainly work (believe me, I hadn't thought of that till now...)
[02:15] <g0dkar_> xangua: thx! :)
[02:16] <hiexpo> anonn, careful
[02:16] <nicholas__> has anybody had any problems with UNE 10.10
[02:17] <zachtib> cyanogenmod
[02:17] <hiexpo> nicholas__, what kinda probs?
[02:18] <Xplat_> I have a question regarding makefiles.
[02:18] <nicholas__> the unity being buggy, slow, or non responsive
[02:18] <hiexpo> Xplat_, ask
[02:19] <Xplat_> If there was a makefile of a different format than the native, and I converted it, would that change the project?
[02:19] <detrix> Hi everyone.  problem: wife has a netbook (acer) been running Ubuntu Standard Gnome (not the UNE). She found a program that was very similar to a PIM program she used on windows, but it is a bunch of KDE programs.  Would this cause her computer to run really slow?
[02:20] <Met4physica> detrix: no
[02:20] <hiexpo> no
[02:20] <rusivi> detrix: I run KDE programs in GNOME on a laptop and find no material slowdown in comparison to the GNOME equivalent.
[02:21] <Xplat_> If there was a makefile of a different format than the native, and I converted it, would that change how the project works?
[02:21] <detrix> rusivi: its starting to act alot like a windows machine
[02:21] <rusivi> detrix: Except you do not get a virus ;)
[02:22] <detrix> rusivi: how ture
[02:22] <detrix> how true
[02:22] <detrix> We are about to reformat the hard drive and reinstall Ubuntu
[02:23] <yagoo> detrix, and its frozen?
[02:23] <Xplat_> hiexpo: If there was a makefile of a different format than the native, and I converted it, would that change the project?
[02:24] <nicholas__> I've read alot of articles about how slow the une 10.10 is and I'm unsure if I should upgrade to that version
[02:24] <detrix> yagoo: No, just gets really slugish, with internet loading, typing in chat programs.
[02:24] <nxnn114> Hi I have a problem with my realtek nic. It will only work after a reboot and is not recognized by my bios or ubuntu after a cold boot. here is the link to the launchpad bug I filed on it in the past https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/45
[02:24] <nxnn114> 9282 it has been a problem for many versions of ubuntu and is still and issue in lucid. any ideas would be greatly appreciated!
[02:24] <yagoo> detrix, how old is the hardware? maybe it's just the improper video driver
[02:25] <detrix> yagoo: hardware is about 3 years old
[02:25] <Xplat_> Nobody knows?
[02:25] <yagoo> detrix, what is sluggish exactly?
[02:26] <yagoo> detrix, is it only internet apps?
[02:26] <detrix> yagoo:  possibly
[02:27] <Xplat_> yagoo, I have a question regarding makefiles.
[02:27] <yagoo> Xplat_, that's not a question.. that question makes no sense...
[02:29] <Xplat_> yagoo, I'm trying to convert a .pbxproj file to a makefile using a program. If I succeeded, would the project work differently?
[02:30] <hiexpo> Xplat_, sure
[02:30] <Hilikus> i just updated to 10.10 and firefox won't open now. it crashes every time. i started in safe mode and nothing, same thing
[02:30] <Hilikus> what else can i try
[02:31] <Xplat_> hiexpo, I can't convert a .pbxproj file to a linux makefile and have it work on a mac?
[02:31] <yagoo> Xplat_, isnt that from iphone dev tools?
[02:31] <yagoo> or xcode?
[02:31] <yagoo> what?
[02:32] <hiexpo> Xplat_, if you wanna use someelses stuff just ask them and tell them what you wanna do
[02:32] <adrian_kx> hi guys

[02:40] <tom1> hello, i had a question about allocating space for partitions for a windows 7/ubuntu/data partition configuration
[02:40] <chien> convivial  hiexpo communautraire...
[02:40] <wang2> anyone?
[02:41] <tom1> should i still put /home on a separate partion? should this be shared with windows or should i do that with another partition? thanks
[02:42] <mbergamo> Hey everyone, I have a quick question. I am on Ubuntu 10.10 and have Lubuntu 10.04 on a different partition, but internet isn't working on the Lubuntu box. I tried copying my bcmwl-kernel-source .deb file to the  Lubuntu box's var/cache/apt/archive and dpkg it on the other partition but it's saying permission is denied.
[02:42] <gogeta> mbergamo: lubuntu uses the same kernel as ubuntu
[02:43] <mbergamo> gogeta: i had to install it for Broadcom 802.11 Linux STA wireless driver
[02:43] <gogeta> mbreslin: did you do sudo dpkg
[02:44] <gogeta> mbergamo: did you do sudo dpkg -i
[02:44] <adrian_kx> ubuntu renders wine unusable
[02:44] <adrian_kx> dam
[02:44] <chien> sans blague  la logique n'est pas tout une part a l'innconu....
[02:45] <tom1> when dual booting, do i need separate partitions for /home and a shared data partition? what should I be storing where?
[02:45] <adrian_kx> can launch anything with wine
[02:46] <adrian_kx> cant
[02:46] <mbergamo> gogeta: i mounted the other partition and tried to send the .deb file over but it is saying there was an error oppening file: permission denied.
[02:46] <adrian_kx> how can i uninstall all security measures
[02:46] <gogeta> mbergamo: you probly have to do sudo cp to the other partaation
[02:46] <gogeta> mbergamo: move the file as root
[02:47] <mbergamo> gogeta: ok i'll try that thank you
[02:47] <nxnn114>  Hi I have a problem with my realtek nic. It will only work after a reboot and is not recognized by my bios or ubuntu after a cold boot. here is the link to the launchpad bug https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/459282
[02:47] <chien> partition patition...!
[02:47] <djnate> end
[02:48] <gogeta> mbergamo: so like cp file.deb /mount/lubuntuhome/user
[02:48] <gogeta> mbergamo: forgot sudo

[02:49] <drbanzai> Anybody know of a terminal program that supports color ansi graphics?  I'm playing an old BBS door game via telnet, and the graphics are always messed up.  I've tried the default Ubuntu terminal, Syncterm, and pterm...any others?
[02:49] <gogeta> tom1: just 2 windows and linux
[02:49] <chien> vaya tios...on va rester sur la 10.04?

[02:49] <ASULutzy> Hey all, I wrote a little shell script here that is pretty simple. Wanted to remux a bunch of .avi's I had into .mp4's. http://pastebin.com/icdbxxN1 For some reason, the script fails, and I don't get why, output here: http://pastebin.com/W0PGAKu9 Finally, here's the output of echo'ing $file instead of ffmpeg'ing it http://pastebin.com/01KerYRM Thanks for your help!
[02:49] <adrian_kx> anyone having problems with apps under wine?
[02:49] <gogeta> tom1: you dont need home but can be usefull for reinstalls
[02:49] <Dr_Willis> tom1:  (Windows) (linux /) (swap)   - But i would use a (Home) parittion also.
[02:49] <tom1> i think i'd like a shared data partition so should i use 4?
[02:49] <adrian_kx> i just found a the solution:D
[02:49] <adrian_kx> heheh
[02:50] <adrian_kx> google rullz
[02:50] <Dr_Willis> tom1:  Linux can read/write NTFS fine these days.
[02:50] <ASULutzy> tom1: Having /home on a separate partition is a pretty good idea.
[02:50] <tensorpudding> tom1: a shared data partition would be a decent idea
[02:50] <tom1> (windows)(linux)(swap)(home)(shared)?
[02:50] <gogeta> tom1: the linux mount point will be simply /
[02:50] <tensorpudding> you'll need an extended partition though
[02:51] <gogeta> tensorpudding: i think you ned extended for more then 3
[02:51] <tom1> okay, i'm not clear on the difference between /home and what i'll be putting on the data partion
[02:51] <chien> viva linux tios...avec 2 troyens on reste en place au poker open source.
[02:51] <gogeta> tom1: /home simply acts as a sepret storage for your personal file / is your data or data and personal file if you dont use home
[02:51] <tensorpudding> tom1: /home is where user files go
[02:51] <BasEBallBoy> Alright, so I'm on my cousins computer and he has an amd64 bit proccessor, I tried installing flash 10, it says flash 10 isn't supported for amd64
[02:52] <gogeta> personal files
[02:52] <ASULutzy> tom1: /home contains your user data. Documents, downloads, everything that isn't part of the system. Think of it as your "My Documents" folder. / is everything else. Think of it as C:
[02:52] <ASULutzy> BasEBallBoy: Just apt-get install flashplugin-nonfree
[02:52] <tom1> okay, so i should still keep /home separate from the shared partition probably?
[02:52] <chris062689> I have a question, I'm currently connected to a windows computer through cifs.   I'm using the command..  sudo mount -t cifs //192.168.2.108/ChrisFiles/ -o username=Chris,password=PASS /mnt/winserver  Is there a way I can replace 192.168.2.108 (the LAN address) with just the name (myserver) so it doesn't matter if I'm on the LAN or if I'm using a VPN?
[02:52] <gogeta> tom1: /home is a partation
[02:52] <ASULutzy> tom1: Yes, because you can use different linux distributions, or reinstall Ubuntu or do whatever, without losing your documents so long as /home is on a separate partition
[02:53] <Dr_Willis> tom1:  your shared parttion wont be ext2/3/4 it will be vfat/ntfs most likely - so  it cant be /home/
[02:53] <gogeta> tom1: you can do it like this windows linux / swap  or you can do windows /home / linux swap
[02:53] <chien> windaube laissez tomber..
[02:53] <tensorpudding> !fr | chien
[02:54] <gogeta> tom1: all /home does is seprrate your personal file from the core os
[02:54] <gogeta> files
[02:54] <chien> merçi.
[02:54] <gogeta> tom1: linux works fine with or without but without a format = all data lost
[02:55] <tom1> sorry, without a format?
[02:55] <tensorpudding> tom1: keeping the personal files distinct from the operating system files is a good plan
[02:55] <gogeta> tom1: with a format
[02:55] <wang2> hello, is there a way to display in Ubuntu (GNOME) if the caps lock key is on or off?
[02:55] <gogeta> tom1: if you dont have /home
[02:56] <geez> Hi, I have successfully installed karmic remix on my netbook alongside the existing windows xp. now, I have burned a DVD with 10.10. I booted from the DVD but the only option i have is to wipe the disk. I need to retain the windows 7 os. Do I have the wrong version for installing side-by-side?
[02:56] <tensorpudding> tom1: it makes backup easier, and if you ever wanted to wipe your install completely, you wouldn't have to do anything special to preserve your personal files
[02:56] <Dr_Willis> wang2:  ive seen somne panel applets that can do that. Check the OMGubuntu web site. ive seen them mentioned there.
[02:56] <chris062689> geez: it should have the option to install alongside Windows in the installer
[02:56] <BasEBallBoy> ASULutzy: Thanks
[02:56] <tom1> okay, how much space should be left for /home?
[02:56] <drbanzai> Anybody know of a terminal program that supports color ansi graphics?  I'm playing an old BBS door game via telnet, and the graphics are always messed up.  I've tried the default Ubuntu terminal, Syncterm, and pterm...any others?
[02:56] <wang2> Dr_Willis: thanks, my keyboard has no led's :(
[02:56] <gogeta> tom1: but if your gona share storage with windows you probly whont need a /home to keep personal files in
[02:56] <tensorpudding> tom1: it depends on what you plan to put there
[02:57] <blakkheim> drbanzai: urxvt is worth a try
[02:57] <tom1> i mostly just planned to use the shared partition
[02:57] <tom1> i wasn't sure what would go in /home
[02:57] <drbanzai> blakkheim, Thanks, I'll check it out
[02:57] <tensorpudding> tom1: any configuration files go in /home
[02:57] <gogeta> tom1: then you only need / swap and windows
[02:57] <tom1> is it okay if config files are on the shared partition?
[02:57] <tensorpudding> tom1: but if you keep all your heavy media files in the shared partition, /home can be rather small
[02:57] <gogeta> tom1: windows being ntfs
[02:58] <gogeta> tom1: your confighs still get stored in /home no matter how you format
[02:58] <tom1> ok
[02:58] <tensorpudding> tom1: configuration files are created in the user's home directory, for a variety of reasons
[02:58] <gogeta> tom1: as i said the only diffrence with a home partation is there sepreated from root
[02:59] <Fyrboy5> Can someone help me with resolution issues in 10.04
[02:59] <dazappa> is there anyway more gracefully to restart x than killing its pid and running startx?
[03:00] <gogeta> tom1: but unlesss you plain on storing critcal data on linux you whont need /home if you dont care losing it on a reformat
[03:00] <gbear14275> hmm... how do you reset your password on freenode?
[03:00] <Fyrboy5> If i try to change to anything other than 1920x1200 the screen fades to a whitish gray color
[03:01] <tom1> okay, i have a 150 gb hd in my laptop...does this seem reasonable (windows7-50gb)(ubuntu-20GB)(swap-2GB)(home-2GB)(shared-76gb)
[03:01] <tom1> i have no idea how much to leave for windows 7
[03:01] <tom1> and is 2gb too much for /home?
[03:01] <gogeta> tom1: install windows first
[03:01] <gogeta> tom1: to little
[03:01] <smw> tom1, too much?!
[03:02] <dazappa> gbear14275: I believe you'll have to contact freenode staff about that one
[03:02] <squ1d1> DLI, problem solved :)
[03:02] <BonSequitur> Just a quick question: Does Ubuntu 10 support the multitouch features of newer netbook trackpads?
[03:02] <gogeta> tom1: /home if where you store file / is where apps and stuff get installed / whont need to be very large unless you install alot of apps
[03:02] <gogeta> is
[03:02] <gogeta> files
[03:02] <Utopos> so I would add "root@178.162.240.74:orange38" to my hosts file ?
[03:02] <mbergamo> gogeta: sorry i got kicked off, but i think i'm making a mistake somewhere. where can i find the actual mount name? as of now its just labeled as '20 GB filesystem'
[03:02] <Utopos> oh CRAP
[03:03] <tom1> i use matlab on both partitions which is kind of large
[03:03] <reva> Hi good evening; I am looking for some help in troubleshooting Ubuntu 10.10 networking issue: It does not connect to the internet.
[03:03] <BonSequitur> Sadly I haven't used Linux in several years, but now I'm getting a netbook I'm considering it again.
[03:03] <tensorpudding> tom1: 2GB is more than enough on a small system if you intend to store all your documents on the shared partition
[03:03] <gogeta> mbergamo: /home is where you store downloads and stuff / is where apps get installed to so home needs to be large enough for your needs
[03:03] <Utopos> i have a new problem LOL i need to change that ssh pass D:
[03:03] <gogeta> mbergamo: / doesent need to be very large unless you install lots of apps
[03:04] <tom1> can't i download to the shared partition?
[03:04] <Fyrboy5> no one has heard of this issue?
[03:04] <reva> I am home so any suggestions you have I will try tomorrow morning when I go in to work. The localhost is working find.
[03:04] <Diamondcite> BonSequitur: My own information is probably out dated, but I think multi touch is kind of hit and miss at the moment, but I don't know of the current status.
[03:04] <gogeta> tom1: asa i said if your not going to store critical data on linux you dont need /home only / and let / act as both
[03:05] <tensorpudding> tom1: when I used to use a shared partition, I configured it so that there were symlinks from folders on the shared partition to folders on the main partition
[03:05] <tom1> okay, is 50 gb enough/too little for windows 7?
[03:05] <squ1d1> Question, I recently uninstalled evolution but yet it still shows up on the applications list
[03:05] <gogeta> tom1: install windows first
[03:05] <squ1d1> how can I fix
[03:05] <Utopos> echo "root@178.162.240.74:orange38" >> .networking_conf
[03:05] <gogeta> tom1: or windows will overwright grub
[03:05] <tom1> gogeta: i will, but how much space should i leave it?
[03:05] <Utopos> fuck wrong tty
[03:05] <tom1> after
[03:05] <BonSequitur> Diamondcite: Okay, thanks. Is Ubuntu 10 netbook still fairly new in general, or is it just that?
[03:05] <h00k> !language | Utopos
[03:05] <gogeta> tom1: you can resize it and put linux on after
[03:06] <tom1> gogeta: right, i was just wondering what to resize it to
[03:06] <reva> The ubuntu 10.10 came with Network Manager .8 installed. When I ran it in VirtualBox, it connects to the internet fine. Anyone has suggestion on how to fix this?
[03:06] <Diamondcite> BonSequitur: 10.10 was released just last month. My own netbook isn't multi touch and so I can't comment on how well it works.
[03:06] <yanick_> hi, is there something similar to CutePDF Writer in Ubuntu ? I had installed pdfsed and pdfedit, but both doesn't work anymore
[03:06] <tensorpudding> tom1: what do you plan to use it for? i''m pretty sure 50gb will fit windows 7 and all the programs you can conceive of putting in it
[03:06] <gogeta> tom1: well if your gonna use linux lightly and not many apps or downloads 10gb is more then enough for linux
[03:07] <BonSequitur> Diamondcite: Ach, so. Thanks regardless. :)
[03:07] <Diamondcite> BonSequitur: Maybe a liveCD is a good test before installing.
[03:07] <gogeta> tom1: 10gb + swap and let windows have the rest
[03:07] <Diamondcite> BonSequitur: Another person using some other distro initially had detection troubles with the multi touch capable touch pad.
[03:07] <BonSequitur> Diamondcite: Well, it's a netbook. It doesn't have a CD drive.
[03:08] <tom1> i need matlab on both partitions. that's the only major probgram in linux...i use ubuntu mostly just for programming
[03:08] <BonSequitur> But I imagine you can set up a live USB key?
[03:08] <gogeta> tom1: as you said your gona store moston ntfs anyways
[03:08] <Diamondcite> BonSequitur: a LiveUSB or the installation medium in general ^_^
[03:08] <tom1> gogeta: right, how should i divide the windows and shared partitions?
[03:08] <BonSequitur> Well, the ubuntu install still doubles as a live$MEDIA, right?
[03:08] <Diamondcite> BonSequitur: Yes it does.
[03:08] <gogeta> tom1: first let windows install
[03:09] <BonSequitur> (Again, I haven't touched Linux in a while... sad. I used to be a slackware user, now I probably have forgotten it all and couldn't even find an xconfig file.)
[03:09] <gogeta> tom1: then you can resize windows and give linux a partation
[03:09] <tom1> gogeta: i will, but at some point i have to decide how big to make the partition that linux and windows will share
[03:09] <Diamondcite> BonSequitur: x.conf isn't valid anymore... more like xorg.conf and minimal interaction if any is needed anymore.
[03:09] <BonSequitur> But anyway, thank you. I guess I'll find out soon enough whether it works.
[03:09] <gogeta> tom1: linux can handel ntfs quite well
[03:10] <gogeta> tom1: so you can share the ntfs
[03:10] <tom1> i have lost some files recently by storing everyting on the windows partition so i am nervous about doing this now
[03:10] <gogeta> tom1: lost files?
[03:11] <gogeta> tom1: had a windows go bad did ya
[03:11] <tom1> i was writing to the windows partition from ubuntu and lost files on several occasions (it was windows fault i believe)
[03:11] <tom1> i've been working off an external hard drive since then because i'm paranoid now
[03:11] <gogeta> tom1: i see
[03:12] <ubuntu_> anyone???
[03:12] <DrkShadow> If I get thrown into rinitramfs, how can I continue booting?
[03:12] <tom1> is it possible to resize the windows and shared partitions after everything is installed or is that a bad idea?
[03:12] <gogeta> tom1: well if you whant to store on linux
[03:12] <Diamondcite> DrkShadow: Can you pick to boot from a recovery kernel?
[03:13] <Diamondcite> DrkShadow: Also please tell us the last thing you did before this happened
[03:13] <gogeta> tom1: well for a shared partation it needs to be fat32
[03:13] <gogeta> tom1: if you worryed abought ntfs messing up
[03:13] <DrkShadow> diamond: I just put ubuntu 9.04 on a USB key. I booted and got dumped into initramfs. It said /lib/modules/<kernel>/modules.dep didn't exist. It does exist.
[03:13] <gogeta> tom1: windows cant see linux formats
[03:13] <tom1> i just wanted to write to an isolated partition (i was planning on making it ntfs for file size limit reasons)
[03:14] <DrkShadow> oddly enough, my usb key doesn't show up in /dev...
[03:14] <gogeta> tom1: well 7 needs 10gb to install
[03:15] <Diamondcite> DrkShadow: That almost seems like terrible compatability..
[03:15]  * DrkShadow sighs at ubuntu
[03:15] <chien> liens magnets in place with trasmission ..?
[03:15] <Diamondcite> DrkShadow: Was the key recently altered?
[03:15] <DrkShadow> ubuntu 10.04 LTS finds the USB just fine... but doesn't really have a live cd portion..
[03:15] <gogeta> tom1: we can do windows 40gb linux 10gb rest to shared
[03:15] <DrkShadow> diamond: I just wrote it from the ISO, does that count?
[03:15] <Diamondcite> DrkShadow: Err.. no idea should be fine?
[03:16] <detrix> Hi, I am not sure how this happened, but somehow the Me menu icon is missing.  How do I get the icon back in the system tray?
[03:16] <tom1> gogeta: okay, i might make linux 20 so there's room after matlab installation
[03:16] <tom1> 2gb for swap?
[03:16] <Diamondcite> DrkShadow: The site should have had instructions on how to install ubuntu 10.10 on the USB key in the download section.
[03:16] <gogeta> tom1: if you whant
[03:16] <DrkShadow> it finds a USB serial device. *sigh*
[03:16] <DrkShadow> diamond: the server portions seem to just not have a livecd portion... only an installer.
[03:16] <tiox> Where can I find the themes in a Ubuntu CD-rom?
[03:16] <DrkShadow> maybe I can just grab a USB adapter..
[03:17] <DrkShadow> use my netbook :-\
[03:17] <chien> referiancieds
[03:17] <gogeta> tom1: being you gonna use a sepret partation to move data you defently whont need /home for stoage
[03:17] <gogeta> storage
[03:17] <Diamondcite> DrkShadow: I'm not sure what you wish to use it for and I'm out of time at the moment.. "Please stay on the line and another able person will help you as soon as possible."
[03:17] <tom1> gogeta: okay, i'll skip the /home idea
[03:17] <Rogan_> *knock knock* Idiot question. What is the ubuntu repository?
[03:18] <tiox> Rogan_, sarcasm or serious question?
[03:18] <Rogan_> for 10.4 LTS, if that matters
[03:18] <Rogan_> Serious question...
[03:18] <gogeta> tom1: yea its only maters on reformats but if you backup by other means its not nedded
[03:18] <skumara> how to run ubuntu one from command line?
[03:18] <chien> referiands liens magnets.!!!
[03:18] <DrkShadow> ubuntu 10.04 server.. is there any way to check on fsck progress? FreeBSD has a ctrl-T which will output a percentage
[03:18] <DrkShadow> I mean.. it's been going for an hour and a half and I have no idea how much longer it's going to be or even if it's frozen.
[03:19] <DrkShadow> (hard drive light doesn't work)
[03:19] <tom1> gogeta: okay, is it possible to install software on the shared partition or is that a bad idea?
[03:19] <trism> !repository | Rogan_
[03:19] <detrix> Hi, I am not sure how this happened, but somehow the Me menu icon is missing.  How do I get the icon back in the system tray?
[03:19] <gogeta> tom1: will possable with windows
[03:19] <tiox> The Ubuntu repository can be found in Synaptic. As for the actual repository location, open gedit /etc/apt/sources.list or enable Software Sources via alacarte, it's under Administration, then open that to find the Ubuntu repositories.
[03:19] <gogeta> tom1: linux you whont need to
[03:19] <tom1> ok
[03:20] <tiox> Beats the biscuits out of editing things in a text document.
[03:20] <tiox> (And oh, alacarte can be accessed simply by right clicking the menu bar and editing the menus)
[03:20] <gogeta> tom1: if you mean for using wine installs can be anywhere i never harmed anything like that before anyways
[03:20] <tiox> Does that answer your question, Rogan_?
[03:21] <tom1> can i install matlab on a shared partition or does it need to be with the os?
[03:21] <skumara> ubuntu one is not connecting to cloud in ubuntu 10.10. when open it freezes for long time and the setup screen sso does not appear. anyone can help?
[03:21] <gogeta> tom1: it will need to be with the os unless thers a portable apps version
[03:21] <nxnn114> Hi Everyone! I have a problem with my realtek ethernet card. It will only work after a reboot and is not recognized by my bios or ubuntu when booting cold. Here is the link to the bug listing for this https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/459282. Any ideas or fixes would be greatly appreciated!
[03:21] <tom1> okay thanks
[03:21] <Rogan_> It answers my question, but also tells me that I had the wrong problem.
[03:21] <Rogan_> :P
[03:22] <tiox> What was the problem *really?*
[03:22] <chien> ok tios referencien solo liens magnets.!
[03:22] <Rogan_> Uhm, so I'm attempting to install Zabbix via apt-get and apparently it's in the default ubuntu repository
[03:22] <tiox> Just open Synaptic (under System>Administration) and look it up.
[03:23] <tiox> If it isn't there, then it might not be supplied in the Ubuntu repositories for 10.10 anymore.
[03:23] <Jyggaa> crap, i just did root@myserver:/somedir# chown -R user:group .*
[03:23] <yagoo> nxnn114, doesn't realtek have bleeding edge code for linux for that?
[03:23] <Jyggaa> argh!
[03:23] <tiox> What the fu-*BOOM*
[03:23] <gogeta> tom1: but on the windows side you should be able to install to shared
[03:23]  * DrkShadow notes that Intel boards have TERRIBLE Linux compatibility
[03:23] <chien> pyrate bay no muertos.
[03:23] <nxnn114> yagoo: Are you asking or telling?
[03:23] <gogeta> tom1: just nt the linux side
[03:23] <tom1> oh okay
[03:24] <Jygga> why the F*** doesnt that just chown the files below the dir im in right now?
[03:24] <tom1> so what do i really need to save on the windows partition?
[03:24] <gogeta> tom1: but you can save your work etc to shared
[03:24] <tiox> Did you cd to that directory Jygga?
[03:24] <Rogan_> Doesn't look like it's there. You don't happen to have an idea of what repo I might find it in?
[03:24] <Jygga> yes tiox
[03:24] <chien> liens decentralisés..!
[03:24] <tiox> Ugh, I don't know then.
[03:24] <Jygga> i was in the directory i wanted to chown
[03:24] <Jygga> including its contents
[03:24] <tiox> And for you, Rogan_, take a look -- Google is your friend.
[03:25] <Jygga> but now all files on the server are chowned *sob**cry*
[03:25] <Jygga> great
[03:25] <Jygga> last backup to the rescue
[03:26] <tiox> Right now I want to know if the old Ambiance and Radiance themes would be found in a 10.04 CD/USB installer?
[03:26] <tiox> .
[03:26] <Fyrboy5> If i try to change to anything other than 1920x1200 the screen fades to a whitish gray color anyone have any ideas?
[03:26] <tiox> Because I loved them. And when I use Ambiance_R/Radiance_R from gnome-look it's not compatible with Synaptic.
[03:26] <Fyrboy5> If i try to change to anything other than 1920x1200 the screen fades to a whitish gray color anyone have any ideas? Ubuntu 10.04
[03:27] <tiox> i.e. Synaptic defaults to standard Gnome theme.
[03:27] <TeslaTony> How is Ubuntu's NTFS support? I want to create a backup and media server, and I want it to be accessible to windows, but would rather now screw myself over with incompatibilities
[03:27] <chien> viva gnu linux!!
[03:27] <Rogan_> Screw it, I'll do it from source.  Thanks though :D
[03:27] <trism> Jygga: .* includes .., so you told chown to recursively chown the parent directory
[03:27] <mercutio22> I need to access a video encoded in a DVD and for some reason its not being automounted in my desktop. Any ideas why that is so? How could I mount it manually:?
[03:27] <Jygga> ye got that trism ;)
[03:28] <elleryss> hi
[03:28] <gogeta> mercutio22: bad burn or encrytped dvd?
[03:28] <elleryss> i have  a question
[03:28] <elleryss> does wine really words with all programs from windows?
[03:28] <mercutio22> gogeta: I can access it in a windows box
[03:29] <gogeta> elleryss: well not all but many
[03:29] <Fyrboy5> If i try to change to anything other than 1920x1200 the screen fades to a whitish gray color anyone have any ideas? Ubuntu 10.04
[03:29] <elleryss> ok
[03:29] <TeslaTony> elleryss: Wine works with a lot of programs right off the bat, but there are some that either need some extras to work, or refuse to work at all
[03:29] <tiox> TeslaTony: If Windows is in the same partition, just save in the Windows partition.
[03:29] <gogeta> elleryss: you can look up programs in the winedb and see how well they work or dont
[03:29] <Newbei> ok
[03:30] <Newbei> thanks
[03:30] <tiox> That CAN be done, right?
[03:30] <Newbei> im really new..
[03:30] <Newbei> but i love ubuntu now
[03:30] <bsmith093> dell vostro 1710  laptop touch pad not responding
[03:30] <tiox> What do you wanna know Newbei?
[03:31] <tiox> Maybe someone will answer my question on where the Ubuntu themes are on a CD while we talk.
[03:31] <TeslaTony> tiox: It's a 2Tb backup drive I have stuffed a good distance from the computer. Windows can't handle ext, and FAT can't hand;e 2Tb, so that leaves NTFS
[03:31] <gogeta> mercutio22: you saves on the shared partation as long as its a windows formated hdd yes aka ntfs or fat
[03:31] <Newbei> many things .. cant explain it briefly coz i type so slow
[03:31] <tiox> PM me then, I can answer basic user configuration questions.
[03:31] <Fyrboy5> If i try to change to anything other than 1920x1200 the screen fades to a whitish gray color anyone have any ideas? Running Ubuntu 10.04 with Mobility Radeon 9700
[03:32] <Newbei> :)
[03:32] <gogeta> mercutio22: oh you mean the dvd
[03:32] <Newbei> this is a good channel!!!!
[03:32] <tiox> TeslaTony: Maybe, save the files on a USB drive?
[03:32] <gogeta> mercutio22: it could be encrypted and linux isnt likeing it
[03:32] <mercutio22> gogeta: yes..
[03:32] <gogeta> mercutio22: some new dvds are like that
[03:32] <mercutio22> gogeta: yes most likely
[03:32] <mercutio22> gogeta: maybe adding the medibuntu stuff
[03:32] <gogeta> mercutio22: thers a fix but i forgot it lol
[03:33] <tiox> Sorry Tesla, I do not know a more comprehensive answer other than save off-site.
[03:33] <chien> quizas sous ubuntu...
[03:33] <gogeta> mercutio22: well is it showing up and not playing
[03:33] <tiox> i,e. on an(other) external device.
[03:33] <Newbei> you can accept newbie questions?
[03:33] <Newbei> like
[03:33] <tiox> Ask me anythng.
[03:33] <tiox> anything*
[03:33] <Newbei> where can i fine the partition ?
[03:33] <maco> !fr | chien
[03:33] <tiox> There is no such thing as stupid questions. Just stupid people. :P
[03:33] <Newbei> becouse its dual OS
[03:34] <DrManhattan> how difficult is 32 bit compatibility in 64 bit gentoo
[03:34] <tiox> If you want to mess with partitions, then open up gparted.
[03:34] <gogeta> DrManhattan: ask gentoo
[03:34] <Newbei> ok
[03:34] <Newbei> wait
[03:34] <DrManhattan> I am so sorry
[03:34] <tiox> I assume you know what you would know what to do from there.
[03:34] <DrManhattan> I lost track of the channel I was in
[03:34] <tiox> By defaultm run applications is Alt+F2
[03:34] <gogeta> DrManhattan: lol
[03:34] <tiox> default, *
[03:35] <mercutio22> gogeta: its not even showing up I am afraid
[03:35] <chien> comment pour y aller maco
[03:35] <gogeta> mercutio22: what movie is it
[03:35] <gogeta> mercutio22: good bet if i do a bit of serching ill find out
[03:35] <Jygga> hmmm i got a backup from a few days ago, is there a way to crawl that backup directory structure to chown all files and directories that are in the backup?
[03:35] <mercutio22> gogeta: its a recorded meeting
[03:35] <Fyrboy5> If i try to change to anything other than 1920x1200 the screen fades to a whitish gray color anyone have any ideas? Running Ubuntu 10.04 with Mobility Radeon 9700
[03:35] <DrkShadow> ok, ubuntu LTS 10.04, detects errors on a partition, says run fsck manually, but won't drop me to a shell. When I reboot, it doesn't give any recovery menu option. How can I do anything with it?\
[03:36] <gogeta> mercutio22: umm now thats odd it shouldent be encrypted
[03:36] <Jygga> its a remote server and i would have to go on a rescue shell and whatnot otherwise
[03:36] <tiox> newbei: It might also interest you to know, you can change the button positions of metacity/GTK themes in gconf-editor, navigate to apps/metacity/general and toy with button_layout
[03:36] <chien> cool tios ici....
[03:36] <mercutio22> gogeta: I think they encript it as DVD video
[03:36] <DrkShadow> the errors are on a RAID5, so I can't boot to USB because it likely won't have the drivers, and I can't easily throw it in another machine..
[03:36] <tiox> That way, if you don;t like window controls on left, you can move them to right.
[03:36] <j_ayen_green> Everything seems to run fine for me in 10.4 in terms of performance, except for mysql...on localhost, anything with a lot of writes, it is probably 10x slower than what I experience online or in windows+wamp
[03:36] <Newbei> :)
[03:36] <Newbei> im lost
[03:36] <Newbei> wait
[03:36] <gogeta> mercutio22: yea it should show as a dvd video or at least a data disk
[03:36] <Newbei> im looking for my c:
[03:36] <tiox> Just query me.
[03:36] <mercutio22> gogeta: installing the codecs from medibuntu hasn't helped...
[03:36] <gogeta> mercutio22: do other dvd movies work
[03:37] <Newbei> where my win7 is
[03:37] <Newbei> i cant fine id
[03:37] <gogeta> mercutio22: i also rember the win7 burning softwhere using some odd format ubuntu does not see
[03:37] <tiox> I am not well-versed on toying with partitions, since I run Ubuntu independently. Someone else can better answer both yours and Tesla's question.
[03:37] <mercutio22> gogeta: don't know... lemme try and get another one
[03:37] <gogeta> mercutio22: if they burned with that

[03:57] <nxnn114> Hi Everyone! I have a problem with my realtek ethernet card. It will only work after a reboot and is not recognized by my bios or ubuntu when booting cold. Here is the link to the bug listing for this https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/459282. Any ideas or fixes would be greatly appreciated!
[03:58] <trism> cwesley32: it is still in the System/Administration menu but hidden by default, you can right click the menu and check the box to enable it, or you can access it through the ubuntu software center, Edit/Software Sources
[03:58] <gogeta> nxnn114: having windows in hibernate can couse that bug
[03:58] <cordoval_> anyone familiar with nullmailer?
[03:58] <danDenz> is there anyway to force apt to do a dist-upgrade? everytime I try to launch it through Syste/Administration/Update Mgr, it quits after fetching the 1st 2 files for the upgrade manager...
[04:00] <nxnn114> gogeta: Ubuntu is the only thing installed on the computer...although I use virtual box to run windows from time to time. However, the status of the windows xp doesn't affect whether or not the internet works. The card is only and always recognized after a reboot.
[04:00] <gogeta> nxnn114: yea thats a odd one
[04:01]  * danDenz needs help :(
[04:01] <gogeta> nxnn114: but it sounds like a powermangment bug or bios bug
[04:01]  * danDenz would offer soul, but that already has a lean on it
[04:01] <gogeta> !ask
[04:02] <gogeta> danDenz: oh you did ask humm you can do sudo apt-get dist-upgarde but things may go wrong
[04:02] <nxnn114> gogeta:Ya in older versions of ubuntu there was a power management error which I think is reflected in the bug. But now it just doesnt work unless I restart it. Also, when going into the bios it only recognizes the card after a reboot so I have no idea what the error could be
[04:03] <danDenz> @gogeta: everytime i try that, it tells me that i'm up-to-date
[04:03] <gogeta> nxnn114: you can disabe powermangment threw grub and force the bios to handel everything
[04:04] <chien> vaya tios ...!
[04:04] <gogeta> nxnn114: by adding acpi=off noapic
[04:04] <nxnn114> gogeta: Ya? quick synopsis on how to do thaT?
[04:04] <nxnn114> thanks
[04:04] <danDenz> i had to change update manager from LTR only, and now it has a button to upgrade to 10.10, but it hangs/quits after fetching the 2 'upgrade mgr' files
[04:04] <gogeta> nxnn114: i would do it temp after a reboot see if it stillworks after shutdown
[04:05] <gogeta> nxnn114: just add em to your kernel line and hit enter
[04:05] <nxnn114> gogeta: ok ill will try that and see thanks
[04:05] <gogeta> nxnn114: if it works we can add it to d.40 as a perment grub line
[04:05] <zfe> i have issues with my audio card
[04:05] <nxnn114> cool
[04:05] <zfe> the xternal jack doesn't work
[04:05] <chien> fedora ou mandriva..?
[04:05] <zfe> looked on forums but it seems there is no solution
[04:05] <zfe> :\

[04:06] <ruffzzz> kubuntu 10.10 networkmanager widget won't show me my dsl connection. i need help
[04:06] <chien> ja!
[04:06] <gogeta> nxnn114: if a laptop you will lose all power mangment on a desktop the same but on a desktop it doesent matter alot
[04:07] <nxnn114> gogeta: its a desktop
[04:07] <maco> chien: english only here please
[04:08] <ruffzzz> chien: anglais s'il vous plait
[04:09] <ruffzzz> somebody help me
[04:09] <ruffzzz> please
[04:09] <gogeta> nxnn114: well then losing power mangment whont matter mutch at least in terms of battery life lol
[04:09] <gogeta> nxnn114: and if bypassing it fixes it yay
[04:10] <chien> for us in banlieu in france we prefere ubuntu thank cannonical...!!
[04:10] <nxnn114> gogeta: I added "acpi=off noapic" and it does not work after a cold boot
[04:11] <mercutio22> gogeta: yeah! =] Wtf were they thinking
[04:11] <gogeta> nxnn114: did the bios see at the cold boot
[04:11] <nxnn114> i will try it again
[04:12] <gogeta> nxnn114: sounds like maybe its a bios issue and now a power
[04:12] <gogeta> not
[04:13] <nxnn114> gogeta: how do I go about looking into that?
[04:14] <Keshi> Hello.
[04:14] <LoganJRuff> Hello Keshi
[04:15] <gogeta> nxnn114: i had that bug with my wifi card and i just had to edit a file to block ubuntu from controling it
[04:15] <gogeta> nxnn114: but it was years ago
[04:15] <Keshi> I was wondering I am using Ubuntu 10.10 on a MacBook Pro 7.1. It is working well and it cool and stuff but the fan in the notebook seems to be coming on when the computer in not that hot.
[04:15] <Keshi> Is there anywhere to adjust that?
[04:15] <nxnn114> gogeta: gotcha...well let me know if you can recall anything about it thanks for the help so far though
[04:16] <chien> we comes of people thahk you...y viva la open source..!
[04:16] <gogeta> nxnn114: but i rember if i disabled power mangment it also worked but being its a netbook i had to find a better fix
[04:16] <gogeta> nxnn114: when you knoe your cards cisable agaiin boot withpower mangment off it should stay that way
[04:17] <gogeta> visable
[04:17] <nxnn114> gogeta: huh?
[04:17] <gogeta> nxnn114: and add it as a perma line in grub d.40
[04:17] <gogeta> nxnn114: when its switched to on boot with power mangment off so ubuntu cant turn it off again
[04:18] <gogeta> nxnn114: at that point it should not go invis again
[04:18] <nxnn114> gogeta: I'm not following your last couple of lines...
[04:18] <chien> gogeta joue au poker..?
[04:19] <gogeta> nxnn114: when you knoe you lan card going to work after reboot at that point disable power mangment then shutdown disable power mangment again if the card stays working we found the issue
[04:19] <kirkmoreno1> Does anyone know of a IRC channel for Java that is not invite only
[04:19] <nxnn114> ok
[04:19] <gogeta> nxnn114: of it failes again we need to block controle a diffrent way

[04:25] <maco> and i speak enough spanish to know what it means in french
[04:25] <fallinphamous> it wont even boot it will say panic and a bunch of stuff pops up in the black screen
[04:25] <chien> sorry..
[04:26] <nxnn114> gogeta: so should I make the power management off permanent first or just shutdown now and then try it again as temporary?
[04:26] <fallinphamous> prakriti, it wont even boot up it will go to a black screen and a bunch of codes pop up
[04:27] <gogeta> nxnn114: well to make shure it stick do a shutdown and once again disable power mangment if the card keep working add as a perment line
[04:27] <prakriti> fallinphamous, have you tried booting from a cd or usb stick?
[04:28] <nxnn114> ok
[04:28] <gogeta> nxnn114: with power mangment off it should not be able to turn off the card
[04:28] <gogeta> nxnn114: we will see
[04:28] <chien> rabelais jajaja!
[04:29] <fallinphamous> prakriti, only a live cd but i don't want that. I havnt tried the usb one but I dont have a flash drive
[04:29] <Madpilot> chien, you've been told repeatedly about #ubuntu being English-only, and why. And swearing in *any* language is against the rules here. Clear?
[04:29] <MHartwell> has anyone gotten RockMelt browser to work under WINE?
[04:30] <prakriti> fallinphamous, i mean for testing
[04:30] <zzzzzz> 彩色文本行

[04:30] <gogeta> Madpilot: just so he gets it lol
[04:30] <grendal_prime> not this one this one but one in another machine
[04:30] <fallinphamous> Prakriti Umm what do you meen by testing?
[04:31] <prakriti> fallinphamous, you have a problem, you dont know whats wrong, so you need to troubleshoot,  try different things
[04:31] <nxnn114> gogeta: ya that doesnt work
[04:31] <gogeta> nxnn114: to bad
[04:31] <MHartwell> grendal_prime: nothing better than SpinWrite ... costs about 80 dollars, boots into freedos and tests / fixes the drive
[04:31] <marienzisgay> What did the sheriff say about the nigger shot 15 times? Worst case of suicide he'd ever seen.
[04:31] <gogeta> nxnn114: man i rember the bug not the fix lol
[04:31] <grendal_prime> hmm...was looking for something that might already be installed
[04:31] <grendal_prime> like chkdsk
[04:32] <grendal_prime> something like that
[04:32] <nxnn114> gogeta: I saw something somewhere about enabling "onboard lan boot rom" in the bios but I tried that and it didnt seem to work either
[04:32] <fallinphamous> Prakriti, lol i think i will just get a new graphics card lol I dont feel like messing with stuff
[04:32] <gogeta> nxnn114: naa it was a config i had to edit
[04:32] <tayfahlman> hey
[04:32] <gogeta> nxnn114: pretty mutch it blacklisted my card from the power mangment
[04:33] <MHartwell> on the other hand, grendal_prime .... drives are cheap, you might want to just copy the contents of BAD?Drive to NEWDrive and be done with it
[04:33] <nxnn114> gogeta: gotcha...hmmm did yours not recognize in the bios either unless on reboot?
[04:33] <gogeta> nxnn114: well it got fixed so
[04:34] <gogeta> nxnn114: but seems to have poped up aain for you
[04:34] <gogeta> again
[04:34] <nxnn114> gogeta: ya this has been an issue since Hardy for me
[04:34] <ANTRat> !iscsi
[04:35] <cmo> Anyone find 10.10 a problem?
[04:35] <greezmunkey> lo
[04:36] <dmenear> cmo: a problem how?
[04:37] <grendal_prime> MHartwell, i might even have a replacement drive sitting in the box next to me. but why the hell would i want to throw out s drive that works fine.  they guy that gave me the laptop said the deive was bad. it had windows on it.
[04:37] <gogeta> nxnn114: man it was some obscure fourm post years back
[04:37] <gogeta> nxnn114: noww to find it
[04:38] <nxnn114> on the ubuntu forums?
[04:38] <grendal_prime> which could just in fact make the drive bad cause he didnt know any better.  there was a hickup in the install though.  where it looked like the drive was experienceing write problems. the install compleated and its been running fine for 4 days now
[04:38] <gogeta> nxnn114: looks like its a bios bug
[04:38] <nxnn114> Did you post in that topic? could make it easier to find
[04:38] <nxnn114> gogeta: is that different from yours then?
[04:39] <gogeta> nxnn114: i just rember sercing for wifi
[04:39] <gogeta> nxnn114: and dissapering from bios
[04:40] <DrkShadow> mysql was slow in 10.04 because php couldn't find the mysql socket to connect with.. so wit was opening a TCP connection, which took a few seconds (!!?) each time a page was loaded.
[04:40] <gogeta> nxnn114: someone had you issue and a bios update fixed it
[04:40] <nxnn114> gogeta: so you think I should look for a bios update?
[04:41] <grendal_prime> looks like i can just use fsck.ext4 /dev/sda1 but i will have to run from the installer disk or something cause the file system cannot be mounted of course
[04:42] <gogeta> nxnn114: it shouldent be to hard normaly the pc maker post them on there website
[04:42] <lof> 4:41 here hello all

[04:48] <gogeta> has
[04:48] <lof> it loads 3 interfaces in usb ttys but doesn't connect
[04:48] <rdvonz> greezmunky: Fixed. Guess what the problem was? The hue slider--for no reason at all--moved all the way to one side.
[04:48] <gogeta> lof: oh you wanna connect
[04:48] <rdvonz> I found it in a forum link, why would that ever happen?
[04:48] <rdvonz> Irritating.

[04:50] <skiloup> I'm running Maverick and my laptop is now initiating a shutdown on it's own when I leave it on.  I haven't found anything useful in the xsession-errors or syslog.  Why would this just start happening?
[04:50] <greezmunkey> rdvonz: http://forum.doom9.org/archive/index.php/t-117993.html carries on a interesting conversation regarding xvid issues as well, but I'm glad you located the issue!
[04:50] <lof> i downloaded a legacy midi package but it didin't help i'm looking for clues
[04:51] <gogeta> lof: why would you need tts for 3g
[04:51] <gogeta> lof: i dont think it diales
[04:51] <chien> do you know holding nuts poker on ubuntu 10.10?
[04:52] <gogeta> lof: if your cards supported you should be able to conect with the network manager
[04:53] <lof> i think i need to use additional software
[04:53] <Gent> I have a Toshiba p105 here running maverick that I can't get any sound on, audio driver is snd-hda-intel conexant [possible conflict with soft modem?] (waikkiki)
[04:53] <gogeta> lof: but 3g support on linux is worse then wifi support
[04:53] <gogeta> lof: well you can look up you model there see what it needs
[04:54] <chien> no money but reputacion...!
[04:54] <lof> do you know any additional repositories
[04:54] <Gent> any ideas?
[04:54] <lof> compatibles
[04:55] <gogeta> lof: well if you can see you card and start dialing that means its partaly working
[04:55] <gogeta> lof: you might need wvdial if you dial tones
[04:55] <lof> it only shows up in debug
[04:55] <gogeta> lof: and the gui for it
[04:55] <gogeta> lof: well what card is it

[05:01] <porjo> I'm having a consistent issue with dhclient (dhcp) where at boot time I get an IP but  no DNS resolvers in resolv.conf. If I manually do a 'dhclient -r' followed by 'dhclient -n' , resolv.conf is populated correctly. What should I check?
[05:01] <lof> do you have a search term to get there
[05:02] <CarlFK> porjo: what are you using for a dhcp server ?
[05:02] <porjo> CarlFK: Windows server
[05:02] <ken> CarlFK: well thanks for at least answering. I just wish there was something I could do, see i'm a bit poor and i'm lucky to even have internet and somehow my windows got corrupted and I lost my original windows disk. So now I'm stuck with a duel partitioned drive I suppose.

[05:06] <CarlFK> Wicked: yeah - but you can install the normal kernel

[05:06] <Wicked> what about https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/LowMemorySystems#Install an Ubuntu command-line system

[05:09] <greezmunkey> ken: do you have access to another PC?

[05:19] <_vaibhav_> deww: ah.. let me try..
[05:20] <agdurrette> how do i tart a script when my server starts?
[05:20] <ShapeShifter499> is the following possible?    have any vbox guest that supports seamless mode to cover linux desktop 1?   so that when I switch to 1 I get windows os instead of a linux desktop
[05:20] <gogeta> greezmunkey: i rember i used to order em in mass and set em in shops
[05:20] <gogeta> greezmunkey: but i guess it got to xpensiv for them
[05:20] <SeanInSeattle> How to use PPA repositories?
[05:20] <snipe> if i use wubi to install ubuntu in windows , does it hurt perfomance versus having it's own partition?
[05:21] <SeanInSeattle> I'm confused as to how they work.
[05:21] <gogeta> greezmunkey: not it cost like 5 bucks for 20
[05:21] <ShapeShifter499> wups    I meant to post in #vbox channel
[05:21] <ShapeShifter499> sorry
[05:21] <gogeta> greezmunkey: now
[05:21] <gogeta> greezmunkey: or 1 bascily they charge the shipping after your free one
[05:21] <justin_> I used wubi to install into windows and it was bad
[05:21] <YankDownUnder> Anyone know of a fix for the SMB issues in Nautilus?
[05:22] <justin_> wiped and installed on entire drive
[05:22] <agdurrette> how do i tart a script when my server starts?
[05:22] <gogeta> YankDownUnder: uninstall windows
[05:22] <gogeta> YankDownUnder: lol kidding but the windows firewall likes to block samba
[05:22] <YankDownUnder> gogeta, Hehehehe...yeah...would be nice, eh!?! :)
[05:22] <gogeta> YankDownUnder: you have to adjust it to allow the linux ip
[05:23] <gogeta> YankDownUnder: being linux likes to use a diffrent subnet
[05:23] <snipe> would be better off to gparted or something to resize the windows partition then ... can't uninstall windows , i'm not the only user

[05:23] <justin_> or vbox for linux part

[05:24] <gogeta> justin_: you broke another system didnt you
[05:24] <YankDownUnder> gogeta, Yeah mate - and it's about to affect all my clients - ergo, find the fix before doing updates...
[05:24] <justin_> I broke lots learning lol
[05:25] <gogeta> justin_: your the only one i knoe that can trash a ubuntu system
[05:25] <justin_> haha Im very reckless
[05:26] <justin_> first time i broke one i sudo'd nautilus to avoid using term
[05:26] <justin_> screwed all permissions
[05:26] <gogeta> justin_: i rember that one

[05:31] <gogeta> justin_: centos = refhat

[05:32] <Fobax> has anyone heard of this before?
[05:32] <justin_> impossible?
[05:32] <YankDownUnder> greezmunkey, Ta - this is basically the issue - as I have it. Rather strange that this isn't being addressed fast enough but.
[05:32] <justin_> put up a bigged hacked banner on front page
[05:32] <gogeta> justin_: quite hard to hack unless it was a disgruntled user
[05:32] <justin_> traced back to china but ip was prolly spoofed
[05:33] <gogeta> justin_: probly
[05:33] <gogeta> justin_: unless of course you never udated heh
[05:33] <eaerth> anyone use ladspa plugins?
[05:33] <justin_> hahaha yeah that was a part of the problem
[05:33] <eaerth> through hydrogen
[05:33] <greezmunkey> YankDownUnder: It looks like the fix may be adding the line as in post #6, as the later posts indicate. This solution was nominated as a fix for the bug.
[05:33] <justin_> it was a new job for me though
[05:33] <gogeta> justin_: but to change wallpaper yea someone had the passord
[05:34] <gogeta> justin_: and walked in threw vnc

[05:35] <justin_> i walked into a cluster f***
[05:35] <gogeta> Fobax: herd of what
[05:36] <YankDownUnder> greezmunkey, Oddly enough, just checked all my workstations/servers here, and they're apparently all fine - the line already exists.
[05:37] <greezmunkey> YankDownUnder: yet the problem still exists??
[05:38] <YankDownUnder> greezmunkey, Si, Oui, Ja, Da, Yes. :)
[05:38] <Fobax> gogeta: I've found a bug where if I hit the ctrl-alt-arrow keys too switch virtual desktops fast enough, sometimes the desktops shuffle with programs moving to other virtual desktops
[05:38] <gogeta> Fobax: humm probly not unherd off
[05:38] <shebang_wafflesa> fobax: it ,oves program windows over to another desktop?
[05:39] <gogeta> Fobax: i dont switch desktops to mutch
[05:39] <shebang_wafflesa> moves**
[05:39] <Fobax> yeah, they just move from one to the other, sort of randomly, but only when I change virtual desktops quickly
[05:40] <shebang_wafflesa> fobax: which wm are you using?
[05:40] <gogeta> Fobax: sounds like a glitch in compiz
[05:40] <Fobax> like usually I have thunderbird open on the top left one, and once in a while it'll just move it to the one below it
[05:40] <Fobax> I'm using compiz
[05:40] <shebang_wafflesa> it might be a feature
[05:40] <Fobax> it must be a race condition of some sort
[05:41] <Fobax> it is rare, and only happens when I switch twice and quickly
[05:41] <irfan_> need webpage editor for linux
[05:41] <irfan_> where can i get ?
[05:41] <gogeta> shebang_wafflesa: only a feature when they cant fix it hehe
[05:41] <shebang_wafflesa> somee wm's will movee the focused window to another desktoip with certain keybindings
[05:41] <Fobax> yeah, that's with shift, but this moves quite a few around
[05:42] <Fobax> and sometimes swaps whole virtual desktops
[05:42] <irfan_> anybody know ?
[05:42] <Fobax> I've got 9 of them organized in a 3x3 grid, and sometimes it'll just move the top 3 down to be the bottom 3, shifting the other 6 up
[05:42] <greezmunkey> YankDownUnder: Have you been able to locate any specific information in your log files?
[05:42] <gogeta> Fobax: yea defently in some sort of condetion where compiz doesent see the switch for some or all and moves em
[05:42] <Fobax> irfan_, what type of webpage editor do you want?
[05:42] <justin_> irfan: gedit is what i use
[05:42] <Fobax> gogeta, exactly
[05:43] <irfan_> okeee
[05:43] <justin_> color coded and everything
[05:43] <shebang_wafflesa> This is why i use openbox :P
[05:43] <justin_> or i use the free online code editors and then copy the code to text file
[05:43] <Fobax> gedit has syntax highlighting
[05:44] <gogeta> Fobax: maybe your pc is to epic fast heh
[05:44] <Fobax> gogeta: it's a slow laptop... may not be fast enough
[05:44] <gogeta> Fobax: yea could be some sort of lag
[05:45] <Fobax> justin_, check out the ubuntu software centre, look under developer tools/web development
[05:45] <gogeta> Fobax: i genrely avoide compiz being its more a gadgit
[05:45] <Fobax> gogeta, it's got to be some sort of race condition
[05:45] <gogeta> Fobax: preforance over eye candy
[05:45] <justin_> i havent had to do any serious development yet lol
[05:46] <Fobax> gogeta, I don't use most of the features of compiz, but I do appreciate good virtual desktop support
[05:46] <justin_> simple php - html edits
[05:46] <gogeta> Fobax: i can do multi workspaces just fine on 2d
[05:46] <justin_> since linux anyways
[05:46] <Fobax> justin_, then gedit will work just fine for you
[05:46] <YankDownUnder> greezmunkey, Apparently, the "proper" fix is to upgrade from gvfs-1.6.1 to gvfs-1.6.3 or 1.6.4 => to which all deps on gvfs are broken... :) Lovely that, eh!
[05:46] <justin_> yeah so far
[05:46] <gogeta> Fobax: virtule desktop has been around forever
[05:47] <Fobax> gogeta, true, but I've found these to work better than the previous iterations
[05:47] <Fobax> though this one bug is annoying
[05:47] <Fobax> bit me twice today
[05:47] <gogeta> Fobax: you can use the same hotkeys on 2d as with compiz minus the eye candy
[05:48] <gogeta> Fobax: in face i think there aruldy maped that way
[05:48] <gogeta> fact
[05:48] <Fobax> quite possibly, but I'd rather not give up compiz
[05:48] <Fobax> I'd prefer to just have this bug fixed
[05:48] <Jygga> what would be the reason that it takes ages to extract a .log file from a .tar.bz2 with tar xvpjf that is only 162MB ?
[05:48] <greezmunkey> YankDownUnder: I found two things that may interest you. Essentially the messaging is broken. Something called Dolphin (rather than Nautlius) seems to work better with CIFS shares than does Nautilus. You test that out...
[05:48] <gogeta> Fobax: just a personal hate lol
[05:48] <gogeta> Fobax: i even turn off aero in 7
[05:49] <Fobax> can't say I've ever used win 7 (or even vista)
[05:49] <greezmunkey> YankDownUnder: hmm, the sentence should have been: You can try testing that out. (new keyboard, sorry)
[05:49] <gogeta> Fobax: vista need to be burned but 7 is nice
[05:49] <justin_> win 7 is pretty solid
[05:49] <justin_> vista was a$$
[05:49] <YankDownUnder> greezmunkey, I'd love to, however, that would entail a mass migration for me (here at home) and then all my clients - no can do. And yes, I've been trying for the past few days to find a fix for this, and it all appears to boil down to simply gvfs
[05:50] <justin_> classic microsoft every second release bug
[05:50] <Fobax> anyway, I'd still like this bug fixed... Any suggestions on where to report it or look for duplicate bugs?
[05:50] <gogeta> Fobax: this is how you install vista heh http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gjB1XzayjtA
[05:50] <Nisstyre65> !bug
[05:51] <Fobax> gogeta, installing vista is not a fix
[05:51] <gogeta> Fobax: video is vista and paper shredder
[05:51] <YankDownUnder> Vista doesn't even come under the heading of "Operating System" - more like "Missing Operating System"
[05:52] <miststlkr> having a problem with Empathy, if anyone has a suggestion.  I am trying to get the icon back in the box.  The green speech bubble icon has started showing up rather than staying in the messaging indicator/applet as normal.  I figured out to make a new empathy.desktop file in /usr/share/applications/ which adds "Chat" back to the indicator, but as soon as Emapthy opens, the icon pops back out onto the panel instead of staying in the
[05:52] <miststlkr>  box.
[05:52] <YankDownUnder> miststlkr, I have empathy for no one (pun intended)
[05:53] <Fobax> gogeta, heh, awesome
[05:53] <gogeta> Fobax: and when the shredder jams heh
[05:54] <nafiux> Hi! Can you help me? I'm trying to write data in a swap partition in C
[05:54] <rosander> When you say write data, do you mean mount the swap for the os to use?
[05:54] <rosander> because you can't use swap as a place to store files
[05:55] <greezmunkey> YankDownUnder: Yikes, man. I wish I had an answer for you on that.
[05:55] <nafiux> Nop, I'm trying to put data in the swap partition...
[05:55] <nafiux> Data without files
[05:55] <rosander> swap has one purpose.
[05:55] <nafiux> I know that I can't use swap to store files...
[05:55] <rosander> swapon /dev/[partitionpoint]
[05:55] <YankDownUnder> greezmunkey, hehehehehe...yeah - so do I - however, it's now a puzzle that requires solving. Either the community will resolve the issue, or I'll have to think of a quicksmart way of resolving it myself (more than just a few computers/servers to deal with - like way more)
[05:56] <YankDownUnder> Wife swapping, or memory swapping?
[05:56] <nafiux> Is for a class propose
[05:56] <nafiux> I need to use a partition (swap for example) for put data... only data, bytes...
[05:56] <miststlkr> YankDownUnder:  slim chance, but perhaps I can help.  I came in after you asked though, mind repeating?
[05:56] <nafiux> I'm not interested in write files, only brute data
[05:57] <justin_> l8r
[05:57] <bobthemilkman> nafiux: Um, dd if=inputfile of=/dev/devicename?
[05:57] <bobthemilkman> You'll overwrite any sort of partition on the device, though.
[05:57] <foenix> #pocoo
[05:57] <chrisa> Has anything changed regarding apt's handling of build-dep in 10.04+? On 9.10 I can pull down nearly everything I need between installing build-essential and then build-deping gcc, but on 10.04 I can't seem to get gcc's build dependencies installed. It just never installs anything and I haven't installed them myself
[05:57] <bcao_laptop> hi ,all Is there a spice client for ubuntu 10.10 64 bit ?
[05:57] <bobthemilkman> Also, you shouldn't do that to your swap partition unless you want to crash your server.
[05:58] <nafiux> Ok.. i need other swap partition
[05:58] <bobthemilkman> Actually, you shouldn't do it to any mounted partition unless you want to crash your server and/or delete your file structure.
[05:58] <bobthemilkman> No, you need another blank partition.
[05:58] <YankDownUnder> miststlkr, There is an issue with Nautilus/Gnome browsing SMB shares on a network. There is a Dbus error that spits forth precious little information. It turns out to be a gvfs issue, and one must upgrade to gvfs-1.6.4 in order to resolve the issue. However, if you try to just force the install, you break everything that uses gvfs. Ergo, updates are out of the question, and a different resolution has to be found. :)
[05:58] <nafiux> and the S.O. do not use this second partition
[05:58] <bobthemilkman> You don't want another swap partition, you want another partition.
[05:59] <bobthemilkman> But unless you're doing advanced file structures, you could just write to a file instead of a device. It works equally well.
[05:59] <nafiux> ok, other partition... but, can I write data without filenames?
[05:59] <gogeta> bobthemilkman: i think he can use dd to dump to a image file
[05:59] <nafiux> I can't use files...
[05:59] <bobthemilkman> Well, you can write data to /dev/[nameofdevice], which is a pseudo-file that points to a device.
[05:59] <nafiux> I need to write bytes in a partition (new)
[05:59] <nUboon2Age> Question: I understand there is a way for us to put Unity on Ubuntu.  Anyone know how to do that?
[05:59] <nafiux> ok
[05:59] <histo> !unity | nUboon2Age
[05:59] <bobthemilkman> nafiux: A file is just a sequence of bytes. A device is just a sequence of bytes.
[06:00] <bobthemilkman> You can put a file in a partition in a device. It's the exact same.
[06:00] <bobthemilkman> Well, almost the exact same.
[06:00] <histo> histo
[06:00] <nafiux> But I need that the system don't know the filename
[06:00] <gogeta> nafiux: need to write data to swap???
[06:00] <bobthemilkman> Well, run gparted, create a new partition, and then use dd of=/dev/[newpartitionname]
[06:01] <bobthemilkman> You'll be writing bits to the new partition without any use of files on the storage medium.
[06:01] <nafiux> :o
[06:01] <bobthemilkman> Keep in mind, though, that /dev/[partitionname] is itself a pseudo-file used by the operating system to point to the device.
[06:01] <nafiux> what type of partition? ext3? ext4? or without type
[06:01] <bobthemilkman> Doesn't matter. When you start writing data to it, it will override the partition type.
[06:01] <nafiux> Yes, I know that all in linux are pointers...
[06:01] <miststlkr> YankDownUnder:  Sorry... as I said, chances were slim, but it was worth offering
[06:02] <gogeta> nafiux: if you want raw data dump to a image file grab the hex brake down to assembly
[06:02] <YankDownUnder> miststlkr, Your "empathy" towards my conflict is well noted, my friend! Beers on me tonight! :)
[06:03] <gogeta> nafiux: whont be mutch use other then you did it
[06:03] <bobthemilkman> But it still seems much easier to just of to any file within a partition, than to a partition itself.
[06:03] <nafiux> But I need write data every moment, I can't dump to a imagen and next grab the hex...
[06:03] <bobthemilkman> I'm not sure I understand the purpose of your homework.
[06:03] <rosander> So after an update none of my tool bars will start. No xorg logs entries nor message. Any thoughts on where I can find info on the problem?
[06:03] <nafiux> ok! :P the purpose Is:
[06:04] <gogeta> nafiux: i dont see a point in this but whatever
[06:04] <greezmunkey> YankDownUnder: I was just looking into what it takes to "remove" Nautilus, and still keep the system operating properly...I understand now why you don't want to do it.
[06:04] <nafiux> I need to make a server that save data from a user, but the server can't know the filename... the server need to write raw data, in a partition and return the start position of the data to the user
[06:05] <nafiux> and next the user need get the file from the server sending the start position and lenght of file
[06:05] <YankDownUnder> greezmunkey, Hehehehehe...yeah - lovely that, eh! As I said, now it's a "puzzle" to be solved...not merely a problem...hehehehehe...yet another reason to make sure there is beer on hand for this... :)
[06:05] <gogeta> nafiux: so you need to do it to a file not the entire partation
[06:05] <bobthemilkman> nafiux: You can use a file as a partition.
[06:06] <gogeta> bobthemilkman: whont the system still see the file after dd clone it
[06:06] <ubuXubu> good morning.
[06:06] <bobthemilkman> Well, here's what you can do.
[06:06] <nafiux> But I need to use a partition (for example a pointer to /dev/hd3)
[06:07] <bobthemilkman> dd if=rawdatafile of=/dev/[partitionname]
[06:07] <nafiux> Can I write data with: fopen("/dev/partitionname")?
[06:07] <bobthemilkman> Then you'll have the contents of rawdatafile at the beginning of that partition
[06:07] <nafiux> ok!!
[06:07] <bobthemilkman> Yes
[06:07] <miststlkr> alright all, guess tonight isn't my night to get help.  I have to jet and get some dinner in me.  cheers all, and better luck with your issues! :-D
[06:07] <bobthemilkman> But you might as well just write the contents of rawdatafile to another file, not another partition.
[06:07] <nafiux> Wow! I want to read about "dd" command now... :)
[06:07] <gogeta> bobthemilkman: well he said they cant see the file but still be able to remake it
[06:08] <bobthemilkman> I mean, you can do dd if=/dev/sda1 of=$HOME/partitionimage
[06:08] <bobthemilkman> And then you can edit partitionimage instead of /dev/sda1
[06:08] <bobthemilkman> gogeta: I mean place a file in a file.
[06:08] <gogeta> bobthemilkman: of he can brake it down to base64 hehe
[06:08] <greezmunkey> YankDownUnder: About the only common thread I can find to side step the issue is to use midnight commander, mc or the like to move files to and from shares.
[06:09] <gogeta> bobthemilkman: then its just raw code in a test fine
[06:09] <gogeta> text
[06:09] <bobthemilkman> Create a file that contains, for example, 0000FFFF0000FFFF
[06:09] <nafiux> yes...
[06:09] <bobthemilkman> Or rather, 0000FFFF0000EEEE
[06:09] <bobthemilkman> Where FFFF and EEEE are the contents of different files
[06:09] <rosander> ubuntu 10.10 update, desktop lost all toolbars. Anyone help debug it?
[06:09] <gogeta> nafiux: well if you can use a file base564 is easy
[06:09] <gogeta> base64
[06:10] <bobthemilkman> And then your user needs to remember the positions 0x5 and 0xC.
[06:10] <bobthemilkman> But you can do that with an actual file, not with a partition.
[06:10] <bobthemilkman> The data works the exact same way.
[06:10] <nafiux> ok bobthemilkman!
[06:10] <bobthemilkman> You only need to use an actual partition to do this if you're worried about access times or are developing a new filesystem, which I don't think you are.
[06:10] <gogeta> bobthemilkman: guess i like to cheat
[06:11] <nafiux> gogeta, what about base64?
[06:11] <gogeta> nafiux: base64 takes files and turns them into raw code text files
[06:11] <gogeta> nafiux: used to be a old trick before email attacments
[06:11] <nafiux> Yeah, I remember...
[06:12] <gogeta> nafiux: then you can reassemble it back to whatever useing a base decoder
[06:12] <nafiux> Yes! I'ts good idea, because if the server administrator open the file, he can't read the content easy
[06:13] <gogeta> nafiux: just garbeled
[06:13] <gogeta> nafiux: code heh
[06:13] <gogeta> nafiux: and unless hes relly old school he whont knoe its base
[06:13] <gogeta> nafiux: probly assume its some sort of crypto
[06:14] <nafiux> yeah

[06:17] <Sterist> bobthemilkman lol read my first message :)
[06:17] <bobthemilkman> Sterist: So you want me to use google for you?
[06:17] <bobthemilkman> You could have had your answer by now if you just googled it.
[06:17] <rooks> Sterist, lol.... it almost fits into notalwaysright.com
[06:18] <chowtamah> hello please, some one help me to configure webcam in 10.10
[06:18] <Sterist> bobthemilkman believe it or not, there are actually people who have gone through the mic fixing process before and know exactly where to find the link
[06:18] <Sterist> never asked a specific person
[06:18] <bobthemilkman> Sterist: And if you google for that, I bet one of them has written a guide on how to do it!
[06:19] <Sterist> !troll | bobthemilkman
[06:19] <Sterist> haha it worked :)
[06:19] <bobthemilkman> I'm not trolling. I'm teaching you how to solve your problems.
[06:19] <enkrypted> Hello, when I installed Ubuntu I chose to put my home folder from a previous install in a encrypted partition mounted at /home. I did this through the installer. I would now like to make my /home partition un-encrypted all the time, to make file recovery easier. How should I do this?
[06:19] <bobthemilkman> If you don't want to solve your problems, then I can't help you.

[06:22] <YankDownUnder> greezmunkey, Currently, my "simple" resolution is to create a script for users workstations that runs on login to mount the smb shares on the network; that's the "bandage" (or Microsoft solution); I'll make a permanent resolution after the application of large quantities of alcoholic substances (i.e., beer)

[06:29] <histo> sorry vboxvideo not xboxvideo.  What am I missing to get X to start?
[06:33] <gogeta> histo: you may have to add your ccount to the video group so x cant start
[06:33] <gogeta> account
[06:33] <gogeta> can
[06:34] <gogeta> histo: you also will need xorg
[06:34] <gogeta> histo: so you have the drivers
[06:34] <ubuntu> ok so display is broken in ubuntu 10.04
[06:35] <ubuntu> how the hell can i fix it without reinstalling
[06:35] <histo> gogeta: I have xorg let me check if i'm in video group
[06:35] <histo> gogeta: I'm not in video group but I don't think ubuntu uses that group
[06:35] <gogeta> histo: i beleve it does
[06:35] <gogeta> histo: at least on my install i have it
[06:35] <ubuntu> anyone know how to fix a current install from live cd?
[06:36] <histo> gogeta: well with sudo X doesn't start either
[06:36] <realeyes> thats what im trying to do
[06:36] <gogeta> histo: humm
[06:36] <realeyes> but im trying to fix grub
[06:36] <gogeta> histo: did you slect the wrong video driver
[06:36] <histo> gogeta: that would eliminate the video group possiblity
[06:36] <histo> gogeta: I didn't select one. X does now
[06:37] <gogeta> histo: you still can using reconfigure i beleve
[06:37] <gogeta> histo: being its a server to gui it may not have those auto features
[06:37] <ubuntu> how can i find out the exact error gnome is having with trying to start x??
[06:38] <ubuntu> its somehting about the display
[06:38] <histo> gogeta: it's nto a server. and Xorg defaults to detecting equipment now
[06:39] <gogeta> histo: being its complaning abought a driver it seems it configued wrong or your lacking the nedded driver
[06:39] <gogeta> histo: the driver package should be like xorg-ati or whatever card
[06:40] <ubuntu> is there a way to reset xorg back to defaults so that it loads my desktop??
[06:42] <gogeta> ubuntu: you should be able to uninstall whatever driver messed up your system from the term
[06:43] <ubuntu> gogeta, my install just hangs at the loading screen
[06:43] <ubuntu> gogeta, then says something about not being able to start the display manager
[06:43] <ubuntu> gogeta, and i didnt install any new vid driver
[06:43] <ubuntu> gogeta, i put it to sleep and when i woke it up it said this
[06:43] <Jordan_U> realeyes: What problem are you having exactly?

[06:44] <mbergamo> hey everyone, sorry to bother you but i have a quick question. i set up a partition for lubuntu but my wireless (and wired) internet wont work. I have a broadcom BCM4321 and it works on Ubuntu, but without any internet connection I'm struggling with getting it on my Lubuntu 10.04. I downloaded the appropriate .deb file but whenever I try to move it from Ubuntu to my Lubuntu partition it says 'error opening file, permission deni
[06:44] <mbergamo> ed'. I tried sudo cp <.deb_file> /dev/sda5/home/<user>/ but its saying "no such file or directory", does anyone have any idea on how to set this up?
[06:44] <ActionParsnip> !broadcom | mbergamo
[06:44] <gogeta> ubuntu: umm
[06:44] <realeyes> the problem i'm having is when i choose to boot linux from grub2 it gives a list of errors before booting into 10.10
[06:44] <shebang_wafflesa> Does anyone know if you can specify CFLAGS with a switch in GNU make?
[06:45] <ActionParsnip> mbergamo: you can use the livecd to get those broadcom things going
[06:45] <SamVib> anybody wanna help me?
[06:45] <ubuntu> gogeta, ps-in on a live cd right now
[06:45] <realeyes> modprob: FATAL: could not load (etc...)
[06:45] <gogeta> ubuntu and even after a reboot same result hua
[06:45] <ubuntu> gogeta, yep, several reboots
[06:45] <ActionParsnip> SamVib: ask your question and find out
[06:45] <Jordan_U> realeyes: What errors? Do you have any problems after booting?
[06:46] <ActionParsnip> realeyes: if you pastebin your dmesg output, it will help
[06:46] <gogeta> ubuntu sounds like something whent wrong after it woke up probly something got crupted
[06:46] <ubuntu> gogeta, anyway to fix it without reinstalling?
[06:46] <SamVib> So here's the problem: when I try to boot into the live CD it boots back into windows.
[06:46] <gogeta> ubuntu you should be able to invoke fsck from the live cd and check the disk for any errors
[06:46] <ubuntu> gogeta, i really hate loosing everything
[06:46] <realeyes> i will post a pic of the screen
[06:46] <SamVib> and when I try to install it alongside of windows I get errors.
[06:46] <ubuntu> gogeta, how exactly would i do that?
[06:46] <gogeta> ubuntu and hopwefully recover
[06:47] <gogeta> ubuntu like sudo fsck /dev/sda1
[06:47] <ubuntu> gogeta, can i do that from live cd?
[06:47] <ActionParsnip> SamVib: did you md5 test the iso you burned? Did you burn slowly? Did you check the CD for defects just after booting the CD
[06:47] <SamVib> I burned at the standard. how do I check the md5?
[06:47] <gogeta> ubuntu or whatever partation ubuntu is on
[06:47] <SamVib> thanks for the help.
[06:47] <ubuntu> gogeta, i think my hd is /dev/sda or something like that, how can i find out the exact wording for it?
[06:47] <gogeta> fdisk -l
[06:48] <ActionParsnip> SamVib: if you didn't md5 test, how do you know you iso was complete or consistant??
[06:48] <SamVib> I just burned it using Imgburn
[06:48] <ActionParsnip> !md5 | SamVib
[06:48] <ActionParsnip> SamVib: you don't, so you need to test it, bad iso will make a bad install cd and need redownloading
[06:49] <SamVib> Alright.
[06:49] <ubuntu> gogeta, how do i unmount it?
[06:49] <gogeta> ubuntu shouldent have even got mounted
[06:49] <ActionParsnip> SamVib: also when the cd starts to boot, press spacebar and you can test the cd for defects
[06:50] <gogeta> ubuntu but might click it unmount
[06:50] <SamVib> it doesnt boot at all
[06:50] <gogeta> right
[06:50] <gogeta> ubuntu should be in your desktop or natuls
[06:50] <ActionParsnip> SamVib: ok, did you set your bios to boot cd first?
[06:50] <SamVib> yes
[06:50] <ubuntu> says its clean?
[06:51] <ActionParsnip> SamVib: how did you put the iso on the cd? What steps did you take?
[06:51] <SamVib> I burned it using Imgburn
[06:51] <gogeta> ubuntu it should have threw a scan
[06:51] <realeyes> http://img132.imageshack.us/img132/9544/imag0003s.jpg
[06:51] <hasek79> if i put an upgraded vid card into my ibm's pci slot with unbuntu 10.04 see it or do i have to install drivers first?
[06:51] <ubuntu> gogeta, it was like immediate that the msg came back
[06:51] <ActionParsnip> SamVib: so you never extracted the files from the iso?
[06:51] <realeyes> that is what i see after i hit enter on my grub2 screen
[06:51] <SamVib> it just was a .iso
[06:52] <ubuntu> gogeta, i think it did a scan, but it was only one line
[06:52] <ubuntu> gogeta, says this, /dev/sda6: clean, 227809/6807552 files, 12426786/27225600 blocks
[06:52] <SamVib> I also had it installed on a partition, and it rebooted then I hit Ubuntu, and took me to a black screen that said something Grub2
[06:52] <ActionParsnip> hasek79: if you use a proprietary driver currently, remove it. Udev will more than likely pick it up or you can load proprietary drivers for it once you boot with the new card in
[06:53] <SamVib> GNU Grub that was it
[06:53] <realeyes> Jordan_U, ActionParsnip: http://img132.imageshack.us/img132/9544/imag0003s.jpg
[06:53] <ActionParsnip> SamVib: do you have more than 1 optical. Drive?
[06:53] <realeyes> that is what i see when i try to boot my 10.10
[06:53] <gogeta> ubuntu didnt correct anything
[06:53] <SamVib> no ActionParsnip
[06:53] <hasek79> i dont know what those drivers are
[06:53] <ubuntu> gogeta, so how do i go about it now?
[06:53] <SamVib> I have a laptop ActionParsnip
[06:53] <gogeta> ubuntu touch /forcefsck this will make it run hen you reboot
[06:54] <gogeta> touch /forcefsck
[06:54] <gogeta> sudo touch /forcefsck
[06:54] <ActionParsnip> SamVib: ok put the cd in and reboot then press F12 lots, then choose cd to boot
[06:54] <ubuntu> then i guess i should reboot then, ps---do u have aim?
[06:55] <SamVib> alright. I will be back if It doesn't work.
[06:55] <ActionParsnip> realeyes: the flash has hidden the important data
[06:55] <mbergamo> ActionParsnip: i've been on that page once before, but i keep having trouble getting into the restricted folder, which is why i downloaded the package to send over to the other partition. can i change the folder with chmod? and if so what parameters must i put in. thank you in advance!
[06:55] <SamVib> wait ActionParsnip boot into the Live cd then f12?
[06:55] <realeyes> ActionParsnip: I will reboot and get another pic
[06:55] <gogeta> ubuntu kinda odd coming back clean yet something whent bad
[06:56] <ActionParsnip> SamVib: no, f12 will make the cd boot
[06:56] <SamVib> ok
[06:56] <ubuntu> gogeta, i know, hope this next scan fixes this
[06:56] <ActionParsnip> mbergamo: just mount the other partition as writable, or use a usb storage
[06:56] <ubuntu> gogeta, otherwise ill be back shortly
[06:57] <ActionParsnip> mbergamo: or run: gksudo nautilus ,and copy it over
[06:57] <ubuntu> gogeta, thank you, and here go nothin..
[06:57] <gogeta> ubuntu might have to boot recovery and run sudo touch /forcefsck
[06:57] <hasek79> how do you see what your computers spec are? like i want to see how big my vid card is? how would i go about doing that?
[06:57] <ActionParsnip> mbergamo: or kdesu doplhin ,for kde (you get the idea)
[06:58] <ActionParsnip> hasek79: lshw-gtk for gui, or run: lshw | less ,for terminal based goodness
[06:58] <Keshi> It there anyway I can see which programme started a process.
[06:58] <SamVib_> it just asked me if I wanted to boot it to safe mode and all that stuff..
[06:58] <SamVib_> didnt work
[06:58] <Keshi> When I login something starts using Python and running my computer's CPU to 100%.
[06:58] <ubuntu> gogeta, brb
[06:59] <ActionParsnip> SamVib: could try using usb. Sounds like a bad disk to me
[06:59] <ActionParsnip> Keshi: I think if you run: ps -ef | grep -i python ,one of the colomns should identify the parent
[07:00] <SamVib_> I don't really have a USB to work with ActionParsnip
[07:01] <ActionParsnip> SamVib_: try the cd in another system if you can, or try a usb optical drive if you have one
[07:01] <tim> hello I am having driver issues any one can help?
[07:01] <gogeta> tim: na
[07:01] <gogeta> lol
[07:01] <hasek79>  ActionParsnip: under display is the "bits" how many megs the vid card is?
[07:01] <SamVib_> I found a USB drive actionparsnip. how would I go about booting from there
[07:01] <Keshi> ty.
[07:02] <gogeta> hasek79: hes gone again
[07:02] <hasek79> oh
[07:02] <gogeta> lol poor guy took me sersly
[07:02] <hasek79> dang it
[07:02] <hasek79> im still learning
[07:03] <guntbert> gogeta: please don't make such "jokes" in a support channel
[07:04] <realeyes> ActionParsnip: http://img844.imageshack.us/img844/417/imag0008o.jpg
[07:05] <gogeta> realeyes: not her man
[07:05] <realeyes> what?
[07:05] <gogeta> realeyes: he left
[07:05] <JoeMaverickSett> realeyes: are you familiar with commandline? if so give this a try http://goo.gl/502Sp
[07:05] <gogeta> realeyes: or its another darn netsplit
[07:06] <realeyes> JoeMaverickSett: Are you understanding the problem my computer is having?
[07:06] <JoeMaverickSett> realeyes: according to the bug report it's very similar..
[07:06] <realeyes> that link you gave me is all in french :/
[07:06] <KB1JWQ> realeyes: Roll back to the previous kernel?
[07:07] <realeyes> uh no. Make my current kernel work?
[07:07] <JoeMaverickSett> realeyes: but you can follow the commands. with google translate. :)
[07:07] <gogeta> KB1JWQ: i wouldent being it had a expolite
[07:07] <hasek79> can you create a launcher to open the terminal then run a cmd?
[07:07] <gogeta> hasek79: yep there called scripts
[07:08] <hasek79> how?
[07:08] <glitchd> gogeta, hey i figured it out, this ubuntu that u were just talking to
[07:08] <gogeta> glitchd: was it crupption
[07:08] <JoeMaverickSett> realeyes: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/642421/comments/37 tells you in english. :)
[07:08] <glitchd> gogeta, not exactly
[07:08] <realeyes> thanks man
[07:09] <glitchd> gogeta, i was trying to get my machine to turn off the touchpad while im typing so i had to put some lines into xorg.conf
[07:09] <gogeta> hasek79: open your favret text edtior then put your comand in then save it as a sometime.sh then make it excutable
[07:09] <gogeta> glitchd: haha
[07:09] <hxcjonnysniper> i need help opening ports for transmission
[07:09] <glitchd> gogeta, evidentially what i put was messing with the display manager
[07:09] <JoeMaverickSett> realeyes: but i recommand a backup of initramfs.conf before you do. to be safe. :)
[07:09] <gogeta> glitchd: at least you found it
[07:10] <glitchd> gogeta, i noticed it said there was a problem at line 14, so i read down to line 14 and jus deleted it until end section, saved and rebooted and bam my desktop came up on next boot
[07:10] <hxcjonnysniper> i need help opening ports for transmission
[07:10] <gogeta> hasek79: well save it with whatever name you like you can do multi comands etc
[07:10] <glitchd> gogeta, thank you for your help, i thought i was goin to have to reinstall, thats a pain in the gonads
[07:10] <ActionParsnip> hxcjonnysniper: are you behind a router?
[07:10] <guntbert> hxcjonnysniper: ports - where do you want to open them?
[07:11] <glitchd> gogeta, and im kind of a noob at this, so small problems are huge for me to fix
[07:11] <gogeta> glitchd: heh
[07:11] <realeyes> Then use Synaptic to reinstall initramfs-tools.
[07:11] <realeyes> How do I do that?
[07:11] <realeyes> apt-get ???
[07:11] <hxcjonnysniper> guntbert: yeah im on the routers ip address site too. i dont know what to put under trigger port and trigger start.
[07:12] <JoeMaverickSett> realeyes: sudo apt-get install --reinstall initramfs-tools
[07:12] <ActionParsnip> hxcjonnysniper: then port forward on the router, set the pc you are running transmission on to a static ip so that dhcp lease expires don't break the connection
[07:12] <gogeta> hxcjonnysniper: it may be ufw blocking said port and notroughter most are upnp these days
[07:12] <ActionParsnip> realeyes: sounds good to me
[07:12] <ubuntunoob> I was wondering if there are any programs for ubuntu that i can see all ips that connect to me and disconnect from them if needed, I want to use to kick people from my game whenever some1 hacked joins it.   TY!
[07:12] <glitchd> gogeta, yea nd ive got a super fucked up memory, so even when i learn something, its not long before its gone from my brain..
[07:12] <realeyes> Thanks guys.
[07:12] <realeyes> Seems to be working.
[07:12] <JoeMaverickSett> let's say i have a .backup file and i want to roll back my changes by using it, how should i do it?
[07:12] <gogeta> glitchd: lol
[07:12] <JoeMaverickSett> realeyes: it works? :)
[07:12] <realeyes> One more reboot will let me know.
[07:12] <guntbert> hxcjonnysniper: that depends greatly on your router - please look into the router's documentation or ask their support
[07:13] <JoeMaverickSett> realeyes: hehe! i'm crossing my fingers. :P
[07:13] <ActionParsnip> hxcjonnysniper: the port is defined in transmission prefs, set that manually too so you know what's what
[07:13] <glitchd> gogeta, lol 94 lincoln grand marquis are no good for the brain
[07:13] <glitchd> gogeta, especially at 60 mph
[07:13] <glitchd> gogeta, lol
[07:13] <ActionParsnip> ubuntunoob: do you mean connect to the pc itself?
[07:14] <hxcjonnysniper> actionparsnip:how do i set it on atatic ip?
[07:14] <guntbert> glitchd: please watch your language and keep to the topic
[07:14] <ActionParsnip> JoeMaverickSett: the file extension doesn't tell you much in linux
[07:14] <glitchd> guntbert, ok
[07:14] <JoeMaverickSett> ActionParsnip: or .bak ?
[07:14] <ActionParsnip> JoeMaverickSett: how did you make the file,
[07:14] <ubuntunoob> yes....so I can disconnect them from my room/game
[07:14] <glitchd> gogeta, thx again
[07:15] <JoeMaverickSett> ActionParsnip: no i'm was just wondering if i made a backup file. such as this; sudo cp /etc/initramfs-tools/initramfs.conf /etc/initramfs-tools/initramfs.conf.backup
[07:15] <guntbert> JoeMaverickSett: don't worry about static right now, that can come later as well (if needed at all)
[07:15] <realeyes> it worked
[07:15] <realeyes> now all i see is 'too many connections'
[07:15] <realeyes> before it boots
[07:15] <ActionParsnip> hxcjonnysniper: use network manager. Right click it -> edit connections. Wired networks. Click auto eth0 and click edit, ipv4 tap change to static ip. You may need to set dns manually so use 8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4
[07:15] <JoeMaverickSett> guntbert: i don't get you. O_O
[07:15] <guntbert> JoeMaverickSett: sorry, wrong nick
[07:15] <JoeMaverickSett> guntbert: ah, okie. :D
[07:16] <tangodown40> Does anyone know how to force the ACCESS KEYS to stay on, instead of only appearing when ALT is pressed?
[07:16] <guntbert> hxcjonnysniper:  don't worry about static right now, that can come later as well (if needed at all)
[07:16] <ActionParsnip> JoeMaverickSett: you can rename a file to anything you want, the extension doesn't change the data so throwing file extensions out does nothing
[07:16] <JoeMaverickSett> ActionParsnip: okie, thanks. :)
[07:17] <ActionParsnip> JoeMaverickSett: then delete the current one and copy the backedup file in then match the name
[07:17] <JoeMaverickSett> ActionParsnip: alrighty. btw, is there a standard extension for a backup file? no?
[07:18] <ActionParsnip> JoeMaverickSett: if you cp back (in your example) by reversing the 2 filenames, it will restore (good backing up by the way, rollback paths are very professional)
[07:18] <JoeMaverickSett> ActionParsnip: ah, okie. that clears it. thanks again. :)
[07:18] <hxcjonnysniper> actionparsnip:there is no static ip option.
[07:19] <ActionParsnip> JoeMaverickSett: there's no standard extension for much in linux, windows uses the extension to identify the file. Linux is more advanced and doesn't care
[07:19] <JoeMaverickSett> ActionParsnip: heh, okie.
[07:20] <ActionParsnip> hxcjonnysniper: drop down the dhcp bar and one other option will be dhcp (address only). You may find it worded as 'manual'. I don't know the precise wording and I am not at my pc so I cannot give you EXACTLY what it will say
[07:20] <ActionParsnip> JoeMaverickSett: you can rename .png to .jpg and the OS will still see a png file
[07:21] <JoeMaverickSett> ActionParsnip: ah, that i've seen. :)
[07:21] <guntbert> ActionParsnip: don't you think that configuring a static ip address isn't exactly urgent for hxcjonnysniper ?
[07:22] <ActionParsnip> JoeMaverickSett: similarly, bash scripts don't need unsightly .sh extensions but they do let you know its a shell script, bit its not necessary
[07:22] <hxcjonnysniper> guntbert:my connection is messing up. kind of important. maybe not to you but to me it is.
[07:22] <JoeMaverickSett> ActionParsnip: hhmm, very well explained. :D
[07:22] <ActionParsnip> guntbert: just avoiding in future saying the link doesn't work when dhcp does a number on him
[07:23] <guntbert> hxcjonnysniper: ActionParsnip: sorry, I was obviously misreading (thinking about transmission ports ....)
[07:23] <Paul__12> Im trying to install netbook remix on a netbook that i just got, and it seems to be stuck at "preparing to install" does anyone know how long it should take
[07:23] <ActionParsnip> guntbert: its early :)
[07:24] <ActionParsnip> Paul__12: did you md5 test the iso you transferred,
[07:24] <Paul__12> no, im not sure how to do that
[07:24] <ActionParsnip> Paul__12: then the iso may have been damaged as you haven't checked its health
[07:24] <ActionParsnip> !md5 | Paul__12
[07:25] <ubuntunoob> I play Diablo2 and I play their open servers where people can join my game via my pc, but I want to be able to remove/disconnect people i want out of my game,  any idea on  any programs for ubuntu?
[07:25] <ActionParsnip> Paul__12: bad iso will cause bad install experience and will need redownloading
[07:26] <ActionParsnip> ubuntunoob: if you are the server you can kick whom you wish, its built into the game
[07:26] <Paul__12> yeah thats what i thought too, so i redownloaded it and followed the directions on the ubuntu site
[07:27] <Eryn_1983_FL> hey peeps  has anybody worked with awesome on  ubuntu karmic? iam  trying to get it to read my config file..  and it won't..
[07:27] <Eryn_1983_FL> i  asked there too... they all asleep or ignoring me
[07:27] <Eryn_1983_FL> in awesome channel..
[07:27] <Agent001> Is there a program that shows to-do list on a ubuntu desktop?
[07:27] <ActionParsnip> Paul__12: test the iso, if its ok, we can try different stuff. Torrents add extra checking in the torrent protocol so can help get a good image
[07:27] <ubuntunoob> not built into the game, I need the ability to kick there ip addresses from being connected with me...
[07:27] <Eryn_1983_FL> i am  trying to get it to put my  apps in  cetain  tags and my background to be  set..
[07:28] <Paul__12> oh so try torrenting it?
[07:28] <ActionParsnip> Paul__12: sure, it strains the canonical servers less too
[07:28] <ActionParsnip> !find awesome
[07:28] <ActionParsnip> !info awesome
[07:28] <Paul__12> alright, could a shitty thumb drive be the problem too?
[07:28] <ActionParsnip> Funky
[07:29] <Paul__12> and just to make sure, i let it run like an hour or so, and it was on the preparing screen still
[07:29] <ActionParsnip> Paul__12: sure, if you get a boot, there's an option to check the usb consistancy, just like a cd
[07:29] <Paul__12> thats not normal right?
[07:29] <Eryn_1983_FL> yeah..
[07:30] <Eryn_1983_FL>  ActionParsnip  i know what  awesome is..
[07:30] <codeblade> anyone used new fedora?
[07:30] <guntbert> !ot | codeblade
[07:31] <ActionParsnip> Eryn_1983_FL: it was for my own education, that cool with you?
[07:32] <bullun88> who can give me link for the router hacking
[07:32] <ActionParsnip> Paul__12: flash drives have limited writes and do degrade with time
[07:32] <guntbert> bullun88: this channel is for ubuntu support only, please don't ask here
[07:32] <ActionParsnip> !ot | bullun88
[07:32] <bullun88> owh thanks
[07:32] <Paul__12> yeah, its fairly new though
[07:33] <ActionParsnip> bullun88: try ##networking
[07:33] <ActionParsnip> Paul__12: still worth checking, you have an issue so you need to find out what works so you can zero in on what's bad. Also test ram
[07:34] <Paul__12> how long should it take to install though, not over an hour?
[07:35] <ActionParsnip> Paul__12: on a 300mhz cpu with 128mb ram it could possibly take longer
[07:35] <Paul__12> its got a gig and i think its 1.6ghz
[07:40] <lolo_> hello

[07:47] <nuckable> hi everyone, i know this isn't really strictly ubuntu-related but i have a little bit of a problem with my putty showing garbled characters when i try to input utf-8 characters
[07:47] <petan> nuckable: what os
[07:48] <nuckable> petan: i'm on windows 7
[07:48] <nuckable> it used to work fine until not long ago, and i have no clue what changed in the meantime
[07:48] <nuckable> i already tried plugging a keyboard into the linux box itself and the characters show up fine there
[07:48] <petan> nuckable: you connect to english bash? or you use some localization on target os
[07:49] <nuckable> so it has to be because of putty, but i really don't have any clue what else i could try, btw i did set the character encoding to utf-8 in the settings
[07:49] <elleryss> hi
[07:49] <pog> good morning, is there somebody who installed usb_modswitch under Ubuntu 8.04?  I'm wondering whether it's quicker and less risky than a release update to 10.04?  (never touch a running system:-)
[07:49] <nuckable> petan: the locale prints out everything as de_AT which is fine, cause i'm from austria
[07:49] <nuckable> all the LC_Variables
[07:49] <sureshot> Hello all it has been a long time since i used ubuntu. i want to customize the kernal for amd multicore. can someone point me in the right direction
[07:50] <elleryss> hello
[07:50] <mo--> nuckable: are all characters garbled or are some showing up fine?
[07:50] <petan> elleryss: hi, just ask
[07:51] <crashanddie_> nuckable, sorry to ask this, but you did change the Window > Translation  > Received data assumed to be in which charset: to UTF8 ?
[07:51] <petan> try unicode
[07:52] <elleryss> how do i connect to my printer via wifi from my windows
[07:52] <crashanddie_> sureshot, --> that way
[07:52] <elleryss> i used samba
[07:52] <petan> elleryss: what relation with ubuntu it has
[07:52] <petan> elleryss: did you configure it in cups
[07:52] <elleryss> it detect but but cant fine the printer
[07:52] <elleryss> im new in ubuntu
[07:52] <elleryss> noobie i should say
[07:53] <sureshot> did not understand crashanddie
[07:53] <mo--> elleryss: can I assume you opened the printer settings and tried adding a network printer -- if so, how far did you get?
[07:53] <crashanddie_> sureshot, you asked us to point you in the right direction
[07:53] <petan> elleryss do you see printer but can't connect? is it accessible in /etc/samba/smb.conf?
[07:54] <elleryss> i cant see the printer
[07:54] <crashanddie_> sureshot, it was a joke. Sorry. To be fair, the kernel already has all the requirements to leverage multicore AMD CPUs, there should be any need for recompilation
[07:54] <elleryss> but i can see my windows
[07:54] <mo--> elleryss: sorry, I assumed you wanted to use a printer that you made accessible in windows with ubuntu - forget my question please.
[07:54] <petan> elleryss: but machine? did you set sharing
[07:54] <elleryss> yea mo
[07:54] <sureshot> ok it is 254 am in the morning hehehe so how do i get the kernel source for amd multi core
[07:54] <petan> elleryss: aha
[07:55] <crashanddie_> sureshot, kernel source for amd multicore?
[07:55] <mo--> sureshot: kernel source is for all target systems ;)
[07:55] <mo--> sureshot: are you looking for an image?
[07:55] <nuckable> now on the box itself it looks like this öäüß€
[07:55] <nuckable> crashanddie_: yes i did
[07:56] <sureshot> ok i miss read your post crashanddie sorry .. have not been in bed yet .. i would like to custimize it for learning purpouses
[07:56] <nuckable> mo--: the first 3 show up fine
[07:56] <elleryss> i can see my windows on *share
[07:56] <crashanddie_> sureshot, then just learn how to compile the kernel, and how to use menuconfig
[07:56] <elleryss> but cant see any printer
[07:56] <sureshot> ok is that in the documentation some ware
[07:57] <mo--> newbie--: can you access any share on the ubuntu machine from windows?
[07:57] <nuckable> these characters show up fine on your side: öäüß€ right?
[07:57] <newbie--> nope
[07:57] <nuckable> should be oau with 2 dots on top
[07:57] <newbie--> i cant sir
[07:58] <mo--> nuckable: its oe ae ue ss and euro
[07:58] <nuckable> then a german sharp s (that looks like a b) and a euro sign
[07:58] <nuckable> mo--: exactly
[07:58] <nuckable> now look at how it looks from putty
[07:58]  * newbie-- needs to get use to asking
[07:58] <nuckable> sec
[07:58] <newbie--> ubuntu is just pretty
[07:58] <newbie--> loveing it
[07:58] <newbie--> :)
[07:58] <airtonix> !enter
[07:58] <nuckable> mo--: Ã¶Ã¤Ã¼Ãâ¬
[07:59] <mo--> nuckable: looks like it was written in utf8, and now displayed in the wrong charset
[07:59] <newbie--> mo
[07:59] <nuckable> and i have no clue why, it used to work fine... =/
[07:59] <allan8904> hey, is it possible to get rig of the top bar in firefox?
[07:59] <airtonix> allan8904, have you tried ?
[07:59] <rooks> nuckable, it looks like garbage here too
[08:00] <nuckable> i doubt it's the server, cause it works fine on the box itself, so it's gotta be something about putty
[08:00] <mo--> newbie--: I'm trying to remember how I set up samba access... ;) what happens when you access the ubuntu box via its ipaddress? do you get asked to enter a username and password, or does it timeout?
[08:00] <nuckable> rooks: the stuff from putty or from the linux box?
[08:00] <allan8904>  airtonix: not the one with file, edit, view and all that, the one with the icon, minimise maximise and close
[08:00] <airtonix> allan8904, again.... have you tried ?
[08:00] <rooks> nuckable, on box it was ok, the last test was garbage
[08:01] <rahsputin> good morning
[08:01] <newbie--> it doesnt say anything it just stop
[08:01] <allan8904>  airtonix: nope, because i have no idea where to start....
[08:01] <nuckable> rooks: that's my problem =(
[08:01] <rooks> nuckable, *hug*
[08:01] <airtonix> allan8904, right click it ?
[08:01] <rooks> :)
[08:01] <nuckable> locale shows all variables set properly as de_AT.utf-8
[08:01] <nuckable> except LC_ALL
[08:01] <allan8904>  airtonix: so what your'e saying is get rid of the window decorations?
[08:01] <nuckable> that one is empty
[08:01] <airtonix> ...
[08:02] <rahsputin> when a library package recommends for instance: libdbus  must i necessarily also install dbus etc... ?
[08:02] <rahsputin> libdbus recommends dbus
[08:03] <nuckable> hmm... when i press Ã¶ it shows as 2 characters
[08:04] <nuckable> btw, i've also tried re-downloading putty and erasing the old configuration in the registry
[08:05] <nuckable> oh wait, now i remember, i messed with the ssh, server, could that be related?
[08:05] <crashanddie_> nuckable, what do you think?
[08:05] <nuckable> crashanddie_: well i remember that i wanted to try to set up the system to use key authentication instead of password
[08:05] <gogeta> nuckable: probly
[08:06] <nuckable> that would make sense o_o
[08:06] <crashanddie_> rahsputin, when you buy a dvd from the thrift shop, and the salesman recommends a dvd in the same section, must you necessarily also buy it?
[08:06] <airtonix> allan8904, http://imagebin.org/122620
[08:06] <gogeta> nuckable: i think ubuntu does both by defult
[08:06] <nuckable> is there someplace on ubuntu where i can find a copy of the original ssh configuration?
[08:06] <airtonix> allan8904, is this your first time using firefox ?
[08:06] <gogeta> nuckable: at least i knoe it sends keys
[08:06]  * nuckable failed at making a backup =(
[08:06] <airtonix> nuckable, not if you didn't back it up before modifying it
[08:06] <nuckable> ugh
[08:06] <rahsputin> crashanddie_: ;-)
[08:07] <airtonix> !enter
[08:07] <allan8904> airtonix: thats not what i'm trying to do...
[08:07] <airtonix> allan8904, yes it is....
[08:07] <gogeta> nuckable: you can always do a rmeove purging the config and resinstall it will be defult again
[08:07] <gogeta> nuckable: remove and remove config
[08:07] <allan8904> airtonix: so you're telling me that i can make the whole top bar dissapear?
[08:07] <nuckable> i guess that's my best bet
[08:08] <airtonix> allan8904, you can make the navigation bar the address bar and the menu bar dissapear
[08:08] <nuckable> i really need to backup config files =/
[08:08]  * airtonix steals nuckables enter key
[08:08] <nuckable> airtonix: sorry =(
[08:08] <cong06> I want a  "launcher" on my flash drive that will run a script relatively. It seems ".desktop" files won't work for this. Any ideas?
[08:09] <airtonix> cong06, you can give scripts icons
[08:10] <allan8904> airtonix: thats not what i'm after, i want to make the bar at the very top dissapear. Like the one with the down icon (on your screenshot), the page name, "mozilla firefox", minimise maximise and close
[08:10] <nuckable> alright, i'll give that a try thanks for your help guys <3
[08:10] <allan8904> airtonix: i think it might be part of the window decoration
[08:10] <airtonix> allan8904, thats not the top bar... it s called the window manager frame
[08:10] <allan8904> airtonix: ok then....window manager frame :)
[08:11] <airtonix> allan8904, nothing to do with firefox. and if you're not running compiz or openbox then you can't remove window frames per application
[08:11] <cong06> airtonix: can you point me to where? Also can you advise on how to code into the script that it shouldnt prompt to "display"?
[08:12] <airtonix> cong06, script (or really just a file ) should be marked executable... and to make it look "pretty" you right click it and select properties then click the large icon button on the top left to change the icon
[08:12] <slide> I made a launcher with the following command, "java -Xmx1024M -Xms512M -cp ~/bin/Minecraft.jar net.minecraft.LauncherFrame" but it just doesnt launch even though the same command works in a terminal
[08:12] <cong06> except that changes settings in Nautilus. I'm interested in saving all the related files in a flash drive, so the script can be put in any computer with the settings showing up there.
[08:13] <airtonix> cong06, then start using a liveusb ?
[08:13] <SamVib> is there a taskiller for ubuntu?
[08:13] <airtonix> SamVib, yes : either xkill (then click on window) or gnome-system-monitor
[08:15] <cong06> slide: what I did is I wrote a script with the line: "/usr/bin/java -jar /home/user/.minecraft/bin/start_minecraft.jar". Then I linked it in /usr/bin/minecraft
[08:15] <cong06> slide: now all I do is: alt+f2, minecraft. Unless I missed the initial issue?
[08:16] <slide> thanks let me try that
[08:18] <slide> awesome that worked thanks
[08:18] <slide> now to get the docky icon to be this better higher resolution version heh
[08:21] <nuckable> that fixed it =3 öäüß€

[08:35] <cong06> bukem: replace your keyboard. maybe plug in a USB keyboard and see if it works better

[08:45] <tessarakt> How do I change partitions after installation?
[08:45] <bukem> just rumig' through the ubuntu forums like you are dumpster diving
[08:46] <tessarakt> partman is not really working
[08:46] <Cyber_Akuma> tessarakt: gparted
[08:46] <tessarakt> it says it cannot find udpkg
[08:46] <tessarakt> Cyber_Akuma, that is not really as intuitive as partman ...
[08:47] <tessarakt> especially, it does not show LVM stuff properly
[08:47] <Cyber_Akuma> Then you should have asked how to use partman under ubuntu, not how to manage partitions :P
[08:47] <Cyber_Akuma> I have never used partman though so I cant help you there
[08:51] <normmand> Initially, can't get video working in skype and google chat. after adding in a script, can get video in skype. anyone have worked on google chat video here?
[08:53] <tessarakt> gnaa ...
[08:53] <tessarakt> why can't those things just work?
[08:53] <linux_inferno> hey
[08:55] <S-CM> hello, i have a problem with my modem
[08:55] <guest1> thetabyte is here&
[08:55] <linux_inferno> Im trying to install 10.10 server 64. It hangs when I get to 73% (Updating list of available packages) Does anyone know how to fix this? My google-ing has been unfruitfull
[08:55] <guest1> thetabyte is here?
[08:56] <crashanddie_> linux_inferno, sounds like your internet connection isn't working very well.
[08:57] <SC-M> hello i have problem with my modem (OLIVE V-ME 110)
[08:58] <linux_inferno> crashanddie_: That sounds logical. However, I am sharing the same connection with this machine, plugged into the same machine. I tried using DHCP during the install and using manual configuration. No difference. Also no difference when trying to use onboard lan and pci-e lan cards
[08:59] <linux_inferno> crashanddie_:  plugged into the same switch****
[08:59] <crashanddie_> linux_inferno, so you're getting a correct IP address?
[08:59] <wechat> is there any sense in RoundCube Webmail on DCHP-Internet box?
[08:59] <linux_inferno> crashanddie_: Yes. I have the correct IP
[08:59] <linux_inferno> SC-M: What is your problem
[08:59] <crashanddie_> linux_inferno, what repository is it trying to connect to?
[09:00] <linux_inferno> crashanddie_: How would I check
[09:00] <linux_inferno> Do I have to run the install with expert mode or with quiet off?
[09:01] <llutz_> wechat: static ip would be preferred but if you hold your dns uptodate, dhcp shouldn't matter
[09:02] <rocket16> Previously, IBus supported Bengali, Hindi and a group of several languages. But now, only Chinese is being supported by it by default. How can I set it to type in Bengali and Hindi? (Indo-Aryan languages of India)
[09:02] <robman> evening all
[09:03] <wechat> llutz_ thanks , I have to install bind9? What to try for training dovecot+postfix+courier : Ubuntu Server or ubuntu Desktop with X?
[09:04] <linux_inferno> wechat: why not run a VM
[09:04] <llutz_> wechat: a dns-proxy like dnsmasq should be sufficient and is much easier to setup than bind9. server/desktop... its your choice, i only run debian-servers :)
[09:07] <tgywa> Hi
[09:07] <chipmink> does anyone have a favorite linux irc client?
[09:07] <wechat> linux_inferno: I was asked to try webmail and I saw some ubuntu server 8 with postfix. I really like it and I gonna try coz it's cool But I have simple comp in my firm where I began to work -- and even admins don't know how to up webmail. I'm gonna show'em that linux is cool. That's all/ Thanks. oh, I used gNewSense , I really liked that debian-lenny-like-distro, but very-very old packages. I respect Debian, but in small town in ^russia^ it's better began with U
[09:08] <tgywa> How can I test if a machine will crash?
[09:08] <tgywa> How can I test if an Ubuntu machine will crash?
[09:08] <tgywa> can it be by putting too much load?
[09:09] <wechat> chipmink: wechat - it has nice wordcompelition but you have to add some perl scripts for sound. For quick speech I use pidgin.
[09:09] <robman> tgywa - that's a very broad question 8)
[09:09] <chipmink> i was tryin to install purple pack on pidgin
[09:09] <chipmink> but it refuses to install
[09:09] <wechat> tgywa: ddos, icmp flood, to much loggin to fit the disk
[09:10] <chipmink> i am almost tempted to go to mirc under wine
[09:10] <wechat> chipmink: what is purple pack anyway?
[09:10] <wechat> chipmink: OMG
[09:11] <tgywa> wechat, thank u ! ... but do you think that ... an Ubuntu machine should stand all those pressures ... to call it stable ...?
[09:12] <wechat> tgywa: experienced admins use some apps to attack their boxes -- they must know'em
[09:12] <robman> chipmink: xchat is ok-ish if you like gui's (but not my fav)
[09:12] <pan> ls
[09:12] <chipmink> purple pack is plugins for pidgin
[09:13] <pan> i don't think so
[09:13] <tgywa> wechat, The thing is that I am running Ubuntu 10.04  on Hyper-V ... with the new Linux integration component incorparated. the question now is ... is that can I relay on that kind of server setup  ? Or is it kind of unstable

[09:50] <tapas> i'm trying to compile an app that depends on gtk 1.2
[09:50] <tapas> it seems the libgtk1.2-dev packages aren't in ubuntu anymore?
[09:51] <wechat> what app? why so old?
[09:51] <tapas> it's called soundtracker :D
[09:51] <daniele> i have to copy all files from a folder that has whitespaces in its name from terminal, any help? if i do "for file in `ls /my/folder`; do cp /my/folder/$file /folder/copy/$file; done;" doesnt work.
[09:51] <tapas> wechat: actually it doesn't find gtk-config either
[09:51] <qzt1827> tapas: isn't soundtracker avaiable as a ubuntu package?
[09:51] <llutz_> daniele: cp /folder\ with\ space/* /target/
[09:52] <tapas> tapas@olive:~/src/bld/soundtracker-0.6.8> apt-cache search soundtracker
[09:52] <tapas> tapas@olive:~/src/bld/soundtracker-0.6.8>
[09:52] <qzt1827> tapas: oh..
[09:52] <qzt1827> tapas: in 8.04 it was still present
[09:52] <mynameistux> hey, what text file do I have to modify to claim ownership of a partition, and set it to mount to a folder within my own home directory
[09:52] <qzt1827> tapas: also in debian lenny
[09:52] <daniele> llutz: i cant do that! i have many files and folder with whitespaces inside the 'master' folder, i must do it in the for loop..
[09:53] <mynameistux> I want /dev/sdc3 to be owned by mynameistux, and to mount to /home/mynameistux/old_home_dir at boot
[09:53] <wechat> mynameistux: ЫныеуьКуысгуСВ,

[09:54] <crashanddie_> mynameistux, /etc/fstab
[09:54] <mynameistux> I just don't know what to put into fstab
[09:54] <bukem> why does adobe not make products for linux!?!
[09:54] <tapas> ok it seems no more gtk-1.2 support in ubuntu?
[09:55] <wechat> mynameistux: look what is in /etc/mtab when partition is mounted and copy it and modify the text
[09:55] <mynameistux> it's trying to mount in the right place, but I don't own it
[09:55] <wechat> bukem: adobe > /dev/null
[09:55] <qzt1827> tapas: yeah. so you have to build gtk-1.2 from source as well
[09:55] <mynameistux> so it screws up the startup and I have to press S to skip mount
[09:55] <wechat> bukem: there is abobe air for linux and pdf reader
[09:55] <llutz_> mynameistux: mount it, then "sudo chown -R mynameistux:mynameistux /home/.../folder"
[09:56] <bukem> wechat .. oh yeah .. but it main products dreamweaver...photoshop etc
[09:56] <tapas> how inconvenient
[09:56] <wechat> photoshop > Pixel -- I like it but it for money
[09:57] <tapas> and compiling gtk is such a hassle

[09:57] <llutz_> mynameistux: depends on sdc3 size
[09:57] <mynameistux> it's 100gig

[09:58] <DigiSAS> could anybody be so kind as to help me add an App i added with Ubuntu Software Centre onto the program menu?
[09:58] <rage_>  there is a problem in skype, after 2 min video conf its crash. ubuntu 10.10.
[09:58] <mynameistux> I guess it has to change the owner for every single file
[09:58] <freeburn_> and for a painful reason most of the development libreries are missing from ubuntu so its not a good building environment
[09:58] <rage_> can anybody help me?
[09:58] <llutz_> mynameistux: thats what it does
[09:58] <freeburn_> i usually build stuffz in fedora...
[09:58] <bukem> rage_ skype is working on my 10.10
[09:58] <ubuntu> i just want to upgrade current ubuntu with ubuntu10.10file.iso.................
[09:58] <bukem> ubuntu : you got a usb?
[09:58] <ubuntu> yes
[09:58] <rigved> DigiSAS: can you see the app inside the Applications menu?
[09:59] <wechat> bukem: wait I got some links for
[09:59] <rage_> its work fine for me too. but its crash after 2 minutes of video call :)
[09:59] <bukem> ubuntu: can you load it on there and boot from usb?
[09:59] <freeburn_> you need to download the alternate cd if you wanna upgrade offline
[09:59] <freeburn_> live cd cant be used for upgrading
[09:59] <DigiSAS> rigved: no, the app in question is cutecom and minicom, i can launch from command line
[09:59] <mynameistux> ok, that looks done
[09:59] <mynameistux> all my old files are in a folder in my current home folder
[10:00] <bukem> rage_ : havn't worked video call .. you sure it wasn't the other dudes problem
[10:00] <ubuntu> im on liveusb now running ubuntu 10.04
[10:00] <mynameistux> and when I right click them, I am listed as the owner
[10:00] <mynameistux> you guys are LEGENDS

[10:00] <DigiSAS> rigved: if i type cutecom at a prompt it opens the gui
[10:00] <rage_> its not other dudes problem :)
[10:00] <ubuntu> want to upgrade to 10.10 with iso file
[10:00] <mynameistux> one day, minstrels will sing songs about you :)
[10:00] <mynameistux> cheers
[10:00] <randomparticle> suggestions welcome, thanks

[10:01] <bukem> wechat: awe .. thanks
[10:01] <tarzeau> ~/KDE/Share/Apps/Clipper what's that good for?
[10:01] <tapas> DigiSAS: isn't minicom a console application?
[10:01] <bukem> ubuntu: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1616821
[10:01] <DigiSAS> tapas: yes it is, but cutecom isnt
[10:01] <rigved> DigiSAS: i think that cutecom will be available under Applications > Accessories. please check and tell.
[10:01] <wechat> tarzeau: clipboard manager?
[10:01] <bukem> ubunut: forget that last one
[10:02] <bukem> ubuntu ^
[10:02] <ubuntu> :)
[10:02] <tapas> DigiSAS: yeah the menu should have them already if you installed them via apt
[10:02] <Jordan_U> randomparticle: Are you booting a 64 bit kernel, and does your hardware use 64 bit EFI?
[10:02]  * tapas is shocked.. no more gtk1.2 support..
[10:03] <ubuntu> :(
[10:03] <qzt1827> tapas: really a pity. soundtracker is a very good program for making modfiles.
[10:03] <randomparticle> Jordan_U: yes to both, thanks
[10:03] <rigved> DigiSAS: if yes, just right click on cutecom and then select "Add this launcher to panel". same goes for minicom.
[10:03] <tapas> https://launchpad.net/~adamkoczur/+archive/gtk1.2
[10:03] <tapas> there's a ppa it seems
[10:03] <qzt1827> tapas: but we must admit is uses outdated technology like gtk1.2 and only OSS (no ALSA) for sound output
[10:04] <Jordan_U> randomparticle: Try booting without the noefi parameter.
[10:04] <ubuntu> how do i upgrade using a local .iso file?????????
[10:04] <qzt1827> tapas: it does work with OSS emulation of ALSA, but it blocks the soundcard for other sound apps
[10:04] <tapas> qzt1827: that's ok
[10:05] <tapas> qzt1827: my soundcard allows multiple opens :D
[10:05] <rigved> DigiSAS: if no, then right click on Applications, and select "edit menus".
[10:05] <Jordan_U> !upgrade | ubuntu
[10:05] <randomparticle> Jordan_U: could do. i have tried video=efifb irqpoll acpi=force before and the screen went blank
[10:05] <qzt1827> tapas: wow
[10:05] <randomparticle> but perhaps that's not caused by the missing noefi
[10:05] <Jordan_U> randomparticle: I assume you've tried booting with no extra kernel parameters?
[10:06] <randomparticle> there's no video without video=efifb
[10:06] <tapas> qzt1827: and it's a pity that the OSS emulation doesn't do software mixing for all apps..
[10:06] <randomparticle> unfortunately, there are millions of different kernel argument permutations :)
[10:06] <tapas> i tried to talk the alsa devs once into letting me try to implement it
[10:06] <tapas> they would not have it
[10:06] <songlixu> 你好
[10:07] <ubuntu> cool thanks!!!!!!!!!!!!

[10:09] <user81_> Hello, hope anybody can help. I'm having a weird dpkg problem:  E: Fout tijdens verwerken van bups-driver-gutenprint (NewVersion1)
[10:09] <user81_> , E: Problem with MergeList /var/lib/apt/lists/nl.archive.ubuntu.com_ubuntu_dists_lucid_main_binary-i386_Packages
[10:09] <user81_> . The problem seems to be that dpkg is referring to bups-driver-gutenprint instead of cups-driver-gutenprint. I've checked /var/lib/dpkg/status but no mention of bups-driver-gutenprint, just the proper cups line. Should I change it to bups, eventhough I know it is the wrong package name?
[10:09] <randomparticle> might it be a problem that the keyboard is not directly attached to the machine?

[10:09] <xuekan> how to update to a newer version of ubuntu?

[10:10] <hata> songlixu: join #ubuntu-cn  thx
[10:10] <xuekan> for example from 10.04 to 10.10.
[10:10] <Jordan_U> randomparticle: How is it attatched?
[10:11] <user81_> xuekan: modify apt to accept non-LTS upgrades
[10:11] <user81_> then sudo apt-get dist-upgrade
[10:11] <randomparticle> USB cable to Apple Cinema Display USB port, ACD to computer
[10:11] <randomparticle> i think it's just a normal USB hub in the display
[10:11] <randomparticle> i would attach directly to the machine, but the cable won't stretch that far
[10:12] <songlixu> 找一个翻译bei

[10:15] <Jordan_U> randomparticle: Can you try with a kernel with Ubuntu's kernel config, either the stock kernel or a 2.6 kernel from the mainline kernel "ppa": http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/ ?
[10:16] <user81_> It's not a root is full problem, it refers to a package 'bups-driver-gutenprint' which should be 'cups-driver-gutenprint' the latter of which is referred to by /var/lib/dpkg/status
[10:16] <user81_> must have happened during an update
[10:16] <randomparticle> Jordan_U: ok, i will do that
[10:17] <Benkinooby> hi, how can i disable the system beep everythime i delete something in nautilus?
[10:17] <cong06> Benkinooby: System > Preferences > Sound ?
[10:19] <Benkinooby> cong06, i already set sound theme to "no sound" and muted "alert volume"
[10:19] <wechat> user81_: you can't upgrade at all?
[10:19] <randomparticle> i'm confused by this "noefi" option. it's widely recommended in various forums for efi booting, and yet supposedly disables efi runtime service access. i'm not sure why that would be a good idea or not
[10:19] <user81_> nothing, everything results in an error
[10:19] <ao> hi,can someone introduce some book about latex,i want to study,thanks
[10:19] <user81_> apt-get -f install, yadayada doesn't work either
[10:19] <obengdako> help rhythmbox banshee and totem won't play through pulseaudio unless i'm using jack-pulse and gstreamer settings are fine to use pulseaudio but only these apps don't work they work if i kill pulseaudio then they probably use alsa
[10:20] <user81_> tried dpkg-reconfigure cups-driver-gutenprint also to no avail
[10:20] <cong06> Benkinooby: just wondering. Can you disable the system beep in bios?
[10:20] <Jordan_U> randomparticle: There are times when it's better to try to access things directly than try to use the EFI runtime services. The largest example is that you simply can't use the runtime services from 64 bit EFI with a 32 bit kernel.
[10:21] <randomparticle> ok
[10:21] <wechat> user81_: delete some files .lock
[10:22] <Benkinooby> cong06, hm, not sure. would have to check. but i think it is not advisable to disable it, because the beep is useful in case of real errors. i don't believe that i have to disable the system beep fully just to disable it on nautlilus
[10:22] <randomparticle> what happens to BIOS calls when EFI booting? i notice quite a few bios irq warnings in amongst the kernel messages, mostly relating to the SATA controller. thanks
[10:22] <cong06> Benkinooby: true. I'm just not sure how to approach that since I've never heard of nautilus system beeping on deletes.
[10:22] <obengdako> help rhythmbox banshee and totem won't play through pulseaudio unless i'm using jack-pulse and gstreamer settings are fine to use pulseaudio but only these apps don't work they work if i kill pulseaudio then they probably use alsa

[10:25] <obengdako> julie3 go ahead
[10:25] <tukadafoonday> Hey guys, can you use windows drivers for the printer? Or do they have to be linux specific?
[10:25] <user81_> i'll give that a try
[10:27] <cong06> Benkinooby: did you see http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=595620 ?
[10:28] <cong06> Benkinooby: actually, that link seems useless. idk? google's not turning up anything?
[10:29] <Benkinooby> cong06, i always google before i ask here... ofc i keep on googling
[10:29] <cong06> ;)
[10:29] <Benkinooby> cong06, atm i am purging nautilus and reinsalling ti with fresh configs... maybe it helps
[10:29] <user81_> it didn't work...

[10:30] <MikeH> Having troubles
[10:30] <rigved> i have ubuntu 10.04 on my laptop. it can only be run in low-level graphics mode. should i convert to xubuntu or lubuntu? which one "looks" better and is low on resource-consumption?
[10:30] <wechat> ш for Lubuntu
[10:31] <wechat> I
[10:31] <Scarra3> Ok I still can not figure out why my alps touchpad does not work on Ubuntu 10.10
[10:31] <MikeH> I've set some files to g+w (-rw-rw-r--) chgrp them to 'mygroup', but owner is mike. I've added another user 'bob' added him to ehd group, but he still does not have permission to write to these files?
[10:31] <Benkinooby> cong06, i even followed http://www.arsgeek.com/2006/08/23/how-to-turn-off-the-annoying-system-beep-in-linux-debianubuntu/ without luck....
[10:32] <wechat> MikeH: chgrp, chmod
[10:32] <lestat> Benkinooby: tried modprobe -r pcspkr ?
[10:32] <julie3> does anyone know how i can access files on an unrecognized hard disk with a live cd?
[10:32] <MikeH> wechat, yes, I've chgrp -R ehd . and then chmod -R g+w .
[10:32] <Scarra3> Any ideas?

[10:35] <MikeH> wechat, usermod -a -G mygroup bob
[10:35] <MikeH> already done :/
[10:35] <lestat> MikeH: when you add a user to a group, you need to relogin for the change to take effect, or use newgrp
[10:35] <wechat> maybe SetUserID or SetGroupID but unsecure
[10:35] <MikeH> lestat, thanks for that, but still no luck :/
[10:36] <MikeH> does it matter that there are two softlinks "en route"?
[10:36] <MikeH> ie. /home/bob/sites -> /sites/
[10:36] <MikeH> then /sites/somesite/ -> /home/mike/sites/somesite/
[10:36] <lestat> Benkinooby: it's the system beep from your terminal that is annoying you ?
[10:36] <wechat> MikeH : gconf-editor > apps > nautilus > set advanced permission > you will see everything in rwx-style
[10:37] <MikeH> bob just goes to /home/bob/sites/somesite/
[10:37] <MikeH> wechat, I do not have X installed.
[10:37] <MikeH> g+w should be sufficient, shouldn't it?
[10:37] <Benkinooby> lestat, i set the beep to visual there so it just blinks what is ok for me. it is nautilus that drives me crazy!
[10:38] <wechat> MikeH: true-lish
[10:38] <lestat> Benkinooby: a ok :\
[10:38] <MikeH> wechat, '-rw-rw-r--' suggests that group permissions are working ok, anyway?
[10:38] <Benkinooby> lestat, i am really deparate right now. i really tried everything.
[10:38] <Benkinooby> desperate
[10:39] <wechat> MikeH : files or folders? without x you can't open folders then try rwX
[10:39] <MikeH> wechat, files
[10:39] <MikeH> I can read them
[10:39] <MikeH> I just cannot write them
[10:40] <wechat> give us ls -la
[10:40] <MikeH> I just did
[10:40] <MikeH> all the files are -rw-rw-r--
[10:40] <wechat> and group of them?
[10:40] <MikeH> -rw-rw-r--  1 mike ehd
[10:40] <wechat> and the directory where are the files permission
[10:41] <MikeH> ehd being the group I've been referring to as 'mygroup'
[10:41] <MikeH> wechat, lrwxrwxrwx  1 mike mike   21 2010-11-10 10:22 tomato -> /home/mike/dev/tomato
[10:41] <obengdako> julie3, so  if the filesystem is unknown it is likely to be destroyed
[10:42] <julie3> can fsck do that?
[10:43] <ph0n7r1c> hi guys i am trying to setup a network boot
[10:43] <ph0n7r1c> but i have a problem
[10:43] <wechat> julie3: e2fsck
[10:43] <ph0n7r1c> the problem is i have the tftp server setup with the files need but it not booting
[10:43] <bazz> if i have a drive that i'm currently not booting (i.e. i have a couple of partitions that i'm keeping data on but nothing else), is it definitely safe to install grub on it?  (that is, i don't risk messing up my existing partitions by installing grub to the mbr right?)
[10:44] <wechat> MikeH : links doesn't follow the rights probably
[10:44] <julie3> wechat: what do you mean?

[10:44] <wechat> julie3: the command to check disk
[10:45] <Licuadora> Before I disconet my internet connection, are there any Ubuntu essential packages to run the sys good?
[10:45] <julie3> wechat: but i did fsck while the disk was mounted and that's what caused it to break, i think
[10:45] <obengdako> julie3, fsck is delicate and depending on how you use it you could corrupt your disk i had my disk corrupted by that once
[10:46] <julie3> obengdako: so it could erase the whole disk?
[10:46] <wechat> julie3: something like this http://paste.ubuntu.com/529261/
[10:47] <obengdako> julie3, do you really have important stuff on your harddrive
[10:47] <MikeH> wechat, lestat : lol `newgrp` didn't do it.
[10:47] <MikeH> Logging out and in did :D
[10:47] <wechat> MikeH: there are differnet groups -- try everything from the beginning
[10:48] <julie3> obendako: school files that are quite important
[10:48] <MikeH> right
[10:48] <MikeH> last thing
[10:48] <lestat> MikeH: have you restarted X ?
[10:48] <MikeH> lestat, no X, but logging out of ssh and back in again solved it
[10:48] <lestat> MikeH: well that's what i told you first .. :p
[10:48] <wechat> user81_: dpkg --configure -a
[10:49] <MikeH> lestat, I thought you said newgrp would do the same :P
[10:49] <obengdako> julie3,  hmmm the disk should be still be recoverable
[10:49] <MikeH> next thing
[10:49] <MikeH> How do I stop files the new user creates from being inaccessible to me?
[10:49] <MikeH> setuid?
[10:49] <lestat> MikeH: yeah it should have, have you run newgrp <theNewGroup> ?
[10:49] <julie3> obengdako: i might try a systemrescuecd when i have a cdrom at hand
[10:49] <user81_> tried all of those, the same error keeps coming up; dpkg, aptitude and apt won't allow any commands except dpkg-reconfigure - which doesn't work either
[10:49] <wechat> setuid is unsecure
[10:49] <lestat> MikeH: but it will apply the new group only to the shell in which you run newgrp, not globally, for that you need to relogin
[10:49] <MikeH> lestat, embarassed - no just newgrp :(
[10:50] <MikeH> wechat, is there another way?
[10:50] <MikeH> wechat, I don't want files another user creates being inaccessible?
[10:50] <wechat> user81_: failsafe mode to try
[10:50] <lestat> MikeH: change your umask to prevent access to new files from other users
[10:50] <julie3> wechat: what do i do after i have done e2fsck?
[10:51] <MikeH> lestat, my point is, say 4 users have access. 1 creates a new file, and I have to manually chgrp and chmod g+w it so everyone can see it
[10:51] <MikeH> lestat, surely there is a way for this to be done automatically?
[10:51] <wechat> MikeH: chmod 700 file
[10:51] <MikeH> I thought this is what setuid was for
[10:51] <lestat> MikeH: aaah i see
[10:51] <liunxe> Hi ... How are you? .. I have a problem after the installation of GNOME Shell - Hundreds of windows opened up automatically - I can not do something .. Do you have a solution .. .. ?
[10:52] <Jordan_U> julie3: Just run "sudo fsck -y /dev/sdXY" and make sure it's not mounted this time.
[10:52] <MikeH> wechat, I think you misunderstand. I'm worried about not being able to access new files
[10:52] <MikeH> not restricting it
[10:52] <obengdako> julie3, please if there is an exact error message that could help please paste it here so we can see the exact problem so everyone  can know how to start
[10:53] <lestat> MikeH: you need sgid bit on parent folder + correct umask
[10:53] <_Geri_> hi, i heard there is a new windowing system in ubuntu. its compatible with X? (like.. a program who are using some xlib, will still run)?
[10:53] <MikeH> lestat, there are several levels of directories, so I need to sgid just the top one?
[10:54] <mattwj2002> hi guys
[10:54] <mattwj2002> I have a question
[10:54] <mattwj2002> is there any way to burn a blu-ray in Ubuntu?
[10:54] <user81_> wechat: It seems to be solved by deleting /var/lib/apt/lists/nl.archive*
[10:54] <wechat> julie: first read man e2fsck ; read man http://linux.about.com/library/cmd/blcmdl8_tune2fs.htm
[10:55] <lestat> MikeH: like umask 770 and make the parent folder owned by you:group and 2770 on the parent folder,  then your file should create with proper perms
[10:55] <c0nv1ct> mattwj2002, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CdDvd/Burning
[10:55] <wechat> user81_: there can be Uncomplited downloaded files -- I deleted them all last problem with dpkg
[10:55] <itguru> I need to generate some RPM files to run under centos,  are there tools available to build them on my ubuntu box?
[10:56] <lestat> MikeH: every directory you want to create files in with proper permissions need the sgid bit, newly create folder will inherit the sgid bit iirc, but you need to set the sgid bit on existing folders
[10:57] <mattwj2002> thanks c0nv1ct
[10:57] <mattwj2002> :D
[10:57] <mammut> can I install mongo db on ubuntu dapper 6.06?

[10:58] <lestat> MikeH: is it good ?
[10:58] <lestat> jpds: really ?

[11:17] <mk0> ?
[11:18] <Error404NotFound> whats the best note taking plus todo style tool for ubuntu? tomboy/gnote/sticky notes are very limited, i can't define tasks/priorities/projects
[11:18] <crashanddie_> mk0, you may want to tell us what the alt+selection does
[11:18] <jrib> Licuadora: you can use ~/.mozilla/plugins/ .  However, java is in the repositories, so you can just install it through APT and save yourself headaches
[11:18] <crashanddie_> !best Error404NotFound
[11:18] <jrib> !java > Licuadora
[11:18] <wechat> mk0 : what text to select
[11:18] <wechat> Licuadora: wait
[11:18] <crashanddie_> !best > Error404NotFound
[11:18] <Licuadora> jrib: I am using the 64bit .so file of Flash player
[11:18] <jrib> Licuadora: ok, use ~/.mozilla/plugins/ then
[11:19] <wechat> Licuadora: http://www.java.com/en/download/help/linux_install.xml
[11:19] <Licuadora> But I can't find the plugins folder, is not there, not even with ctrl-h
[11:19] <madst3in> flash player just released a new update was crashing alot manualy install it
[11:19] <mk0> it's can be called like "free selection". select the  arbitrary part of text
[11:19] <jrib> Licuadora: create ~/.mozilla/plugins/ and use it
[11:19] <mattwj2002> according to a mac os formun it works under ubuntu
[11:19] <mattwj2002> :)
[11:19] <Licuadora> madst3in: What do you suggest?

[11:26] <redvil> hello there..anyone knows an iTunes equivalent app in Ubuntu?
[11:27] <ectospasm> redvil: I don't know of one that will interface with iTunes
[11:27] <ectospasm> redvil: there probably won't be one until Apple releases iTunes for Linux (heh. heh. heh.)
[11:27] <wolf23> hello firends
[11:27] <redvil> ectospasm: i already use rhythmbox for the mp3s but i need one that supports file transfer
[11:28] <ectospasm> redvil: from what to what?
[11:28] <redvil> ectospasm: thanks anyways..it's just that i've been 'googling' like crazy and couldn't find one
[11:29] <ectospasm> redvil: "support file transfer" is too vague, transferring from what device to what device?
[11:29] <redvil> ectospasm: i can transfer mp3 files from Ubunt to iPhone..but not other files..like pdf and lit files
[11:29] <wolf23> i have a file .avi 500 mb on the penrive , is there a way to decrease the size of this video to give more space on my pendrive?
[11:29] <ectospasm> redvil: gtkpod might be able to do that
[11:29] <redvil> ectospasm: ok then, i'll give that one a try..thanks
[11:29] <wolf23> sorry ...i have a file .mpg 500 mb on the penrive , is there a way to decrease the size of this video to give more space on my pendrive?
[11:29] <ectospasm> wolf23: convert it to a compressed format
[11:29] <rudi> wolf23, you could use a video editor to reduce the size
[11:29] <sresu> Hibernate(Suspend to disk) is not working. How to fix it?
[11:29] <wechat> redvil: always when googling crazy, nothing can be founded -- try to read attentionasly one site by another
[11:29] <ectospasm> wolf23: or *more* compressed format (-;
[11:30] <redvil> wechat: did that too..it seems that there really is no iTunes equivalent app for ubuntu
[11:30] <wolf23> ectospasm,  sorry the format is mpg.. how could i solve this plz
[11:30] <redvil> wechat: might try gtkpod for file transfers other than mp3s
[11:30] <ubuntu_every_ONE> Hey guys. Did anyone have issues with conky having Winsow Decoration apllied to it? And adding an exception for conky doesn't work?
[11:31] <ubuntu_every_ONE> Window**
[11:31] <ectospasm> wolf23: find a format that has a better average compression ratio.  Or move the .mpg from your thumbdrive
[11:31] <wechat> redvil: aTunes BUT it is not the newest iTunes style
[11:31] <rudi> ubuntu_every_ONE: what does your conkyrc look like?
[11:31] <ubuntu_every_ONE> Ubuntu should have multiple channels.
[11:31] <mk0> and one more question: years ago i had a gui music player with button "go to now playing song". very useful feature, i can't remember what player it was. does anyone know?
[11:32] <redvil> wechat: aTunes? is that in synaptic?
[11:32] <wechat> no no no
[11:32] <dariocravero> Hi guys, I'd like to know if there's -or will be- a 64-bit version of UNE. I'm getting an Asus 1215n which comes with the Atom D525 which is a 64-bit processor :)
[11:32] <rudi> mk0, not that i can think of sorry man :(
[11:32] <wechat> redvil : I don't know anythin 'bout gtkpod sorry
[11:32] <rudi> dariocravero: does it have >4GB of RAM?
[11:33] <dariocravero> rudi, 4GB
[11:33] <wolf23> rudi,  if the file  is 500mb how could i decrease it to be less size
[11:33] <dariocravero> rudi, actually it comes with 2 but I can upgrade to 4 (which I'll do as soon as I get it since I've already bought the modules)
[11:34] <wechat> mk0: http://www.atunes.org/?page_id=6 deb will be good for г
[11:34] <rudi> dariocravero: hmm, not sure if there will be 64bit version, but you could install a vanilla copy of 64bit Ubuntu onto it install the UNE extras over that?
[11:35] <rudi> wolf23, what version of ubuntu are you using?
[11:35] <rudi> wolf23, afaik 10.10 comes with a video editor preinstalled
[11:35] <dariocravero> rudi, well, I actually did something like that on my desktop :P I only installed the unity package though, is there anything else to it? Like some power management stuff or anything?
[11:35] <rudi> use that to try reduct the size
[11:36] <rudi> dariocravero: tbh, I don't think so. I'm running vanilla ubuntu on my netbook (I couldn't stand the UNE interface) and I haven't noticed any difference in battery life at all
[11:37] <dariocravero> rudi, great then :)
[11:37] <dariocravero> rudi, I'll go with that and let you know what happens :P
[11:37] <rudi> dariocravero: cool stuff :) hope it goes well!
[11:38] <dariocravero> rudi, it will! ;) btw, didn't you find that unity made the whole thing really slow?
[11:38] <rigved> how i make apt-get remove command ignore "couldn't find package name" errors. i want "if the package doesn't exist, then don't remove it amd continue with the remaining commands"
[11:39] <dariocravero> rudi, because it can be hugely improved by upgrading to kernel 2.6.36 in ppa
[11:39] <wolf23> rudi, 10.10
[11:39] <sagaci> rigved: does it have a -f force command?
[11:39] <wechat> rigved: apt-get remove file || apt-get <comman>
[11:39] <awanti> how to install OpenEMM .tar.gz package
[11:39] <wechat> rigved: || - means continue when error
[11:40] <wolf23> rudi, afaik is a video program?
[11:40] <rigved> sagaci: no
[11:40] <wechat> awanti: first `tar -xvzf OpenEMM.tar.gz` and  read all the INSTALL files there
[11:41] <rigved> wechat: so - sudo apt-get remove || <list>
[11:41] <wechat> rigved: wait I gonna use the `for` command

[11:42] <randomparticle> hard to know what to do at this point
[11:42] <wechat> rigved: ` for i in $(cat packages-to-delete-list.txt) ; { apt-get -why remove $I ; }
[11:42] <randomparticle> could i insert an initramfs script that would help diagnose this?
[11:43] <randomparticle> i can't type any diagnostic commands due to the mentioned lack of a working keyboard
[11:43] <rigved> wechat: this is a shell script, right? thanx
[11:43] <js_> what's a util i can use to simply set the background of X to a color? without using an image that is

[11:46] <maedox> meatbun: is it not in /var/log/syslog?
[11:46] <wechat> rigved: http://paste.ubuntu.com/529289/
[11:46] <meatbun> maedox, let me check
[11:47] <meatbun> maedox, ops.... where is syslog on fedora?
[11:49] <maedox> meatbun: not sure. don't think it's a file as on ubuntu
[11:49] <wechat> rigved: I used to make so : for  a in `dpkg -l | grep kde` ; { sudo aptitude -y purge $a ; }
[11:49] <acuster> hey all, how does one get one of the /etc/init.d/ scripts to start at boot time?
[11:50] <acuster> it seems there is a command update-rc.d but it is confusing with legacy info versus current approach
[11:50] <maedox> « update-rc.d script-name defaults » or supply start stop levels with priority like this: « update-rc.d script-name start 80 2 3 4 5 . stop 20 0 1 6 . »
[11:50] <jrib> !upstart | acuster
[11:51] <acuster> well, that's  a whole different game, no?
[11:51] <jrib> acuster: in any case, what exactly do you want to start at boot time?
[11:51] <wechat> maedox: sorry , maybe sudo apt-get -y remove $i
[11:51] <studentz> Hi there
[11:51] <acuster> /etc/init.d/slapd
[11:51] <rigved> wechat: thanx a lot :)
[11:51] <jrib> acuster: if you installed it with the repositories it probably starts already
[11:52] <acuster> I can manually add the symbolic links in the /etc/rc*.d/ files
[11:52] <wechat> rigved: man anyway I can't remember all for now
[11:52] <acuster> but that seems not how it is done anymore
[11:52] <wechat> rigved: thanks
[11:52] <acuster> jrib, but it does not
[11:53] <studentz> best front end for C++ app   GTK +    wxForm Qt ?
[11:53] <meatbun> maedox, i think it's call /var/log/messages but can't confirm. no read access to it
[11:54] <jrib> acuster: if there is no corresponding file in /etc/init/ then you can just do it how you used to (with update-rc.d.  Actually you were never supposed to use that as a user.  Instead use something like sysv-rc-conf).  But you should read the documentation.  Maybe it's just configured not to start with something like /etc/default/slapd
[11:54] <maedox> meatbun: I don't think messages contains what syslog will on ubuntu, but I'm not sure. there is a /var/log/secure on fedora which shows login sessions created.
[11:55] <meatbun> maedox, can you test it for me?
[11:55] <meatbun> ssh mae@192.168.x.x cat .bashrc
[11:55] <maedox> yes, one moment
[11:56]  * meatbun is going to upgrade his distro via local alternate cd method
[11:56] <maedox> yupp, /var/log/secure shows session opened from IP, and then closes it.
[11:56] <meatbun> ok, thx

[12:01] <rigved> i have heard metacity is lighter than compiz
[12:01] <maedox> meatbun: yeah :D
[12:01] <theadmin> rigved: Go to preferences -> Appearance and disable desktop effects.
[12:01] <mary> wechat: i know but when i try to add HOME it tells me it cant
[12:01] <wechat> meatbun: yes - I have the problems with compiz and dpkg and kernel - so I used to say Alpha is not for work - but I DO like fresh packages anyway
[12:01] <meatbun> maedox, i put a 'history -c' on my .bashrc, for 'exit' alias

[12:02] <maedox> meatbun: if you execute some commands you don't want saved you can add a blank/whitespace at the starte of the line ;)
[12:02] <wechat> meatbun: dont' forget also `cat /dev/null > ~/.bash_history`
[12:02] <michaelribeiro> good morning

[12:03] <wechat> mary : not that way
[12:03] <rigved> theadmin: ok. one moment
[12:04] <theadmin> rigved: Huh. Integrated things should just work, I dunno.
[12:04] <meatbun> maedox, oh... i didn't know blank spaces....part... now it all make sense. cause i copy and paste a lot. and wonder how  come it did not save
[12:04] <rigved> theadmin: it's very old laptop, like six years i think
[12:04] <wechat> mary : *launcher* is_not_ a link which is  home
[12:04] <theadmin> rigved: Okay, try this: "metacity --replace &" (it should give a number after this...) and then, after Metacity appears, type "disown NUMBER"
[12:04] <theadmin> rigved: From there, disable the effects %)
[12:05] <mary> wechat: ok so how do i do that?
[12:05] <wechat> mary: why not to choose add launcher with a comman like that probably `nautilus ~`
[12:05] <wechat> mary: nautilus /home/mary
[12:05] <rigved> theadmin: it's a Intel Graphics 82852/855GM Integrated Graphics Device
[12:06] <mary> wechat: tried that as well it doesnt work, but i just found out: open nautilus in home and drag the icon onto the panel
[12:06] <mary> that works

[12:12] <sqezzz> join #holland
[12:12] <phoenix_firebrd> crashanddie_: thank you
[12:12] <wechat> quacked: install grub on another place and edit grub config file
[12:12] <theadmin> quacked: Huh. Well, um, you'd have to use GRUB either way, I think, the OS needs a bootloader
[12:12] <x0rs_w> I am having a weird problem within version 10.04. After being booted up for a few hours my internet starts doing weird things like whenever I try to load a base webpage (www.google.com, www.foxnews.com) it wants to download a save the index.htm or index.php file. I reboot and this fixed the problem for a few hours, but it eventually comes back

[12:13] <quacked> im trying that easybcd
[12:13] <theadmin> x0rs_w: Sounds like a browser issue to me

[12:13] <quacked> wechat, how?
[12:13] <theadmin> x0rs_w: Huh. How do you connect, do you use NetworkManager?
[12:14] <x0rs_w> theadmin: yes, network manager default wired connection
[12:14] <crashanddie_> x0rs_w, it really sounds like a server issue. Are you using some sort of proxy?

[12:19] <ahri^> kmiksi: what sort of help do you need?
[12:20] <theadmin> kmiksi: What exactly do you need help with? I could, probably :D

[12:20] <kmiksi> thanks
[12:20] <theadmin> crashanddie_: ...I don't, I'm just saying that I know some of it and could help
[12:21] <ahri^> kmiksi: if you only want it to output the size, do: du -sh FILENAME | cut -f1

[12:24] <MikeH> is it possible to establish when a user was created

[12:24] <kmiksi> ahri: du -sb $file | awk '{print $1}'
[12:24] <MikeH> would it be in syslog or similar?
[12:24] <kmiksi> very thanks
[12:24] <ahri^> theadmin: thanks, worked a treat :)
[12:25] <ahri^> kmiksi: yeah awk works too, cut is probably very slightly more efficient, but then again you could chop the var up inside bash for more efficiency
[12:26] <ahri^> kmiksi: tbh, you should check out #bash -- they're very helpful
[12:27] <kmiksi> ahri: thanks, really
[12:27] <theadmin> ahri^: Well, to be precise "du" is not a bash built-in.
[12:27] <airwater> on school i can choose a own subject (for example asp.net) and make my own syllabus on it and work it out. Can somebody give me some advice which programming language atm is very hot and which is very much needed at jobs
[12:28] <theadmin> airwater: C and C++ is _always_ needed, Python is my favorite. Java is popular too.
[12:28] <airwater> i already got the subjects C++ and java theadmin
[12:28] <nothingspecial> sosaited: Install pulse audio volume controll
[12:29] <ahri^> theadmin: i was meaning chopping it up after var=$(du -sh), really
[12:29] <airwater> Sharepoint ??
[12:30] <nothingspecial> sosaited: pavucontrol rather
[12:30] <paolo88> hi
[12:31] <paolo88> Does gcc compile fortran code, or i must install gfortran too?
[12:31] <theadmin> paolo88: gcc is for C.
[12:31] <ahri^> airwater: i'd pick python, definitely. ruby's neat but not so widespread. php's useful to know (but not very pretty) (but then neither is C++ :p)
[12:32] <airwater> ahri^ is python usefully in the future, also with jobs you think ?
[12:32] <paolo88> theadmin: so nothing compilator for fortran code is include into gcc
[12:32] <jpds> airwater: Yes.
[12:33] <airwater> and what about Hibernate
[12:33] <charlie> hi
[12:33] <jpds> airwater: That's something bears do.
[12:33] <ahri^> airwater: i'm currently using python in my day job, so yeah
[12:33] <ahri^> airwater: and google uses python
[12:34] <airwater> so python and perl
[12:35] <airwater> i just learned Java in blue-J and in little bit eclipse is that the same as J2EE
[12:35] <ahri^> airwater: i wouldn't bother with perl unless you want to do lots of sysadmin stuff
[12:36] <ahri^> airwater: you do know that hibernate is a java framework for saving objects to a database?
[12:36] <airwater> no
[12:36] <ahri^> airwater: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hibernate_(Java)
[12:37] <ahri^> it's an ORM
[12:37] <ahri^> (which is explained on an article linked from the above article)
[12:37] <airwater> i dont get the crap about orm :p

[12:39] <ahri^> i have a question about pulse audio; what's the accepted way to choose a networked PA device these days? it used to be padevchooser but that seems to be "the old way" ?
[12:41] <airwater> Are there any cool stuff you can build with java lol ?
[12:42] <psycho_oreos> define: cool
[12:43] <aeMaeth> it always seemed like java was frowned upon
[12:43] <ahri^> aeMaeth: by whom?
[12:44] <kencausey> Yesterday I came by because I was trying to install 10.10 AMD64 Desktop but as soon as I selected Install (or Try) from the installation menu I lost video support (the monitor would go into standby).  I could hear the CD churning away but I couldn't see to do anything.  rigved suggested I use the alternate CD to install and I did so.  But once I reached the restart point to boot up into my 'nearly'
[12:44] <kencausey> complete installation the same problem occurred.  This is a Dell desktop with onboard nvidia graphics.  Help?
[12:44] <airwater> i learned just java in blue-j is that the same as J2EE ?
[12:46] <rigved> kencausey: now when your boot starts, press shift. that will bring up the grub2 menu. select recovery mode. then select "low-level graphics mode"
[12:47] <dude> how can i save my running settings into an xorg.conf?
[12:50] <rigved> !offtopic | airwater
[12:51] <rigved> airwater: btw, blue-j is not completely same as java
[12:52] <kencausey> rigved: OK, where do I go after that to get properly working video?
[12:52] <pig> #A4eXiaStrasbourg
[12:52] <kencausey> rigved: oh, and thanks again ;)
[12:53] <rigved> kencausey: i have a laptop with the same problem. i am still trying to figure it out myself...:)
[12:53] <tsaknorris_> ineed xml help!?!?!?!? private chat someone?
[12:53] <kencausey> rigved: OK, I see.  Well, I guess I'm going back to Debian then, thanks.
[12:53] <rigved> kencausey: one option is to shift to a lighter version, like lubuntu.

[12:54] <tsaknorris_> is that correct
[12:54] <rigved> kencausey: or you can always load int failsafe graphics mode. only you will not have special desktop effects. everything else will work the same as in ubuntu.
[12:55] <wechat> tsaknorris_: http://irc.netsplit.de/channels/?chat=xml
[12:55] <rigved> kencausey: i don't mind loading onto failsafe graphics mode always. atleast i still have ubuntu running on my laptop. it's compromise between ease of use and looks

[13:22] <rigved> ronnie_vd_c: when you type anything after that, are you able to get your normal screen back?
[13:23] <ronnie_vd_c> rigved: my normal screen gets back when i open my laptop screen
[13:24] <ronnie_vd_c> also my secondairy screen is blanked, and showed when closing/opening
[13:24] <ronnie_vd_c> my goal is to use my secondairy screen, and keep my laptop screen closed
[13:24] <rigved> ronnie_vd_c: i think it is a power-saver feature.

[13:26] <rigved> !xrandr | dude
[13:26] <ronnie_vd_c> rigved: yes, its powersaving. but the settings lid_ac is in gconf apps>gnome-power-manager>buttons and when set to "nothig" it should do nothing. otehr possible values are blank, suspend,poweroff

[13:44] <rgu2010> umer: twitter works fine anyway on gwibber. it is facebook messages that gwibber swallows
[13:44] <ikonia> umer-siddiqui: what about it ?
[13:44] <umer-siddiqui> it's best if you want to use facebook plus twitter
[13:44] <umer-siddiqui> right via your desktop
[13:45] <umer-siddiqui> but you need to install adobe air
[13:45] <daniele> hi all
[13:45] <ikonia> umer-siddiqui: depends if you want to rely on closed source problematic software like adobe air that's not supported
[13:45] <umer-siddiqui> you can install adobe air by ubuntu software center
[13:45] <daniele> is possible to keep ubuntu to open a nautilus window when a device (usb key for esample) is mounted?
[13:45] <umer-siddiqui> well as far as my experience i love to use tweet deck on my ubuntu box

[13:47] <macsim> hi, all my scp transfert from ubuntu to ubuntu stalled any idea ? I didn't found anything about this on google thanks
[13:47] <umer-siddiqui> macism
[13:47] <umer-siddiqui> install ssh server on the machine
[13:47] <umer-siddiqui> type scp -r user:192.168.1.1/home/user/files foldername u want to scp
[13:47] <chicognu> user124, yes
[13:47] <user124> so i have a creative soundblaster x-fi card
[13:47] <sipior> macsim: stalled immediately, or in then middle of the transfer?
[13:47] <user124> and the problem is with 5.1 system
[13:48] <label> o
[13:48] <_raven_> possible to use old graphics cards (withoud cudar) to build up a small supercomputer?
[13:48] <umer-siddiqui> how can i see on which workspace i am any short cut key
[13:48] <user124> when i change music the 5.1 turns off..
[13:48] <macsim> sipior, at the middle of the transfer
[13:48] <chicognu> user124, what is the exact problem with that ?
[13:49] <user124> and its like 2.0
[13:49] <user124> i always have to reconfigure it
[13:49] <user124> in sound preferences - profile
[13:50] <_raven_> possible to use old graphics cards (withoud cudar) to build up a small supercomputer?
[13:50] <sipior> _raven_: older cards will lack the performance to beat modern CPUs, even if you're a clever enough programmer to get anything out of them.
[13:50] <chicognu> user124, I don`t now how help u .. but one thing: the songs you are hearing are 5.1 ?
[13:50] <hemza> I need a good dictionary EN-FR , FR-EN and a check spelling for Ubuntu and OpenOffice.org
[13:50] <ylmfos> 嗨
[13:50] <konradh> Hey, is there a tool wich says, how often I use which program?
[13:50] <_raven_> siupior
[13:50] <user124> yes, the songs are 5.1
[13:50] <chicognu> user124, if you star  to play a dvd and change it, the problem will repeat ?
[13:51] <_raven_> sipior, no way to put some of them into a computer and have a rendering machine?
[13:51] <dropdriv1> Are there any fun (toy) web frameworks built around per-session coroutines?
[13:51] <user124> yes its the same with dvd too.. or even with youtube
[13:51] <sipior> macsim: could you post here the command you are using? also, i assume you've made sure the network between the two machines is copacetic?
[13:51] <konradh> Hey, is there a tool that tells, how often I use which programme?
[13:52] <fishcooker> how to config the keyboard stuff?
[13:52] <chicognu> user124, did tha, with root or sudo execute alsamixer
[13:52] <konradh> @fishcooker: which keyboard stuff?
[13:52] <chicognu> user124, and check if alsamix have the controls to all 5 chanels
[13:52] <sipior> _raven_: you might be able to get something running, but don't expect that to beat a modern CPU. if nothing else, bus speed limitations will make it difficult to keep the cards full.
[13:52] <k-rad> #ubuntu-women needs a logged irc chat room
[13:53] <k-rad> oops #ubuntu-women

[13:57] <konradh> Hey, do you know an application that tells me how often I use which programme?
[13:57] <heartinfei> haha  you are funny!
[13:57] <_raven_> any way to put some of old graphics cards into a computer and have a rendering machine?
[13:57] <dude> so when log in, one of my monitors gets no signal. then i go to monitor preferences, change something, the signal switches to the one that didnt work before. then i click on "restore previous settings" and suddenly both screens work like they should. its only after booting, relogin or x restart works fine. what is this?

[14:01] <wechat> congratulatons > heartinfei
[14:01] <ikonia> maitrey: formatting with what file system
[14:01] <maitrey> ikonia: ntfs
[14:01] <dr0id> I had used screen to execute a python file forever..now I want to stop executing that file, how do I do that?
[14:01] <ikonia> maitrey: it won't support unix permissions
[14:01] <dr0id> when I type screen -x or screen can't see that running
[14:01] <dr0id> somone please help
[14:01] <macsim> sipior, stalled too with rsync/ssh
[14:02] <maitrey> what formate shall i choose to be able to use pendrive with windows?
[14:02] <sipior> macsim: does it stall going the other direction?
[14:02] <llutz> maitrey: vfat
[14:02] <m4xx_> where are the the settings stored for the "Applications" menu?
[14:02] <m4xx_> on ubuntu 10.04
[14:03] <ikonia> dr0id: screen -r
[14:03] <macsim> sipior, I try
[14:03] <Robinux> guys, is 10.04 server more stable than 10.10?
[14:03] <zroysch> hi
[14:03] <zroysch> i installed ubuntu 10.10 on this desktop and nm-applet is failing to start. any idea how i can fix this?
[14:04] <zroysch> imean it starts when i run the command but not at startup
[14:05] <ikonia> Robinux: no
[14:05] <ikonia> Robinux: it will be supported longer though
[14:05] <ikonia> !lts > Robinux
[14:05] <m4xx_> i'de like to copy a few applications in one submenu to another
[14:05] <ltcosta> hello.. i need some help please.
[14:05] <ikonia> ltcosta: you need to ask a question then
[14:05] <macsim> sipior, no it works in the other direction
[14:05] <ltcosta> I can't acess other windows machine in the same workgroup
[14:05] <dr0id> ikonia: http://pastie.org/private/lr7kxrq06mljzsqwy11vxa
[14:05] <sipior> macsim: did you address the other machine by its ip address this time, or hostname?
[14:05] <macsim> sipior, allways IP
[14:05] <ikonia> dr0id: there are two screens running, neither attatched, screen -r $screen_id to connect to it
[14:05] <dr0id> how to stop 1 ?
[14:05] <macsim> sipior, maybe purge ssh and reinstall it ?
[14:05] <rigved> ltcosta: do you want to share files or do some remote control?
[14:05] <ikonia> dr0id: connect to it, then kill it
[14:05] <Pici> dr0id: kill the PID or connect and then kill it.
[14:05] <dr0id> thanks:)
[14:05] <sipior> macsim: not sure what that would accomplish, did you make extensive changes to the ssh configuration?
[14:05] <macsim> sipior, I didn't touch it
[14:05] <ikonia> Pici: maybe better to connect to it and kill it so the screeen session ID is released, it's a stupid bug that it hangs around
[14:05] <Robinux> ikonia, thanks, but damn how can it be that something older is supported longer :O
[14:05] <ltcosta> anyone can help me to acess a windows machine in my workgroup??? it is open but i can't open it
[14:05] <dr0id> ikonia: ohh, and how do I exit from this screen now ? :P
[14:06] <lestat> MikeH: yo
[14:06] <EvaLuaTe> hello
[14:06] <ikonia> Robinux: read the LTS information
[14:06] <ikonia> dr0id: just type exist
[14:06] <lestat> MikeH: still same problem ?
[14:06] <ikonia> dr0id: exit
[14:06] <Robinux> i know about LTS, but i thought that after the LTS is over for 10.04 for example, it then applies to 10.10?
[14:06] <EvaLuaTe> if I have written a new program, how can I get it included in ubuntu?
[14:06] <ikonia> !motu > EvaLuaTe
[14:06] <sipior> macsim: when the transfer is stalled, can you try running top on the remote machine, see if anything unusual is running concurrently?
[14:06] <hemza> i need a good dictionary - it should work without internet connection- for ubuntu
[14:06] <dr0id> ikonia: nah, doesn't works...
[14:06] <UrbanSombrero> Howdy. What's the deal with file sharing in Lucid and Maverick? I have one laptop with each and would like to move my home directory from one to the other.
[14:06] <ikonia> dr0id: when you connect to the screen, do you have a command prompt ?
[14:06] <rigved> !samba > ltcosta
[14:06] <coz_> EvaLuaTe,   I would  go to #ubuntu-dev  first
[14:06] <dr0id> yeah
[14:07] <ikonia> Robinux: no, it doesn't, check the documentation
[14:07] <rigved> ltcosta: you need to install that
[14:07] <EvaLuaTe> ikonia, sorry, I didn't receive any message
[14:07] <Robinux> meaning 10.10 will become LTS?? right or not ikonia
[14:07] <ikonia> dr0id: type exit then
[14:07] <dr0id> and the python script is running continuously and outputting some data
[14:07] <EvaLuaTe> coz_, ok, thank you
[14:07] <Robinux> oh
[14:07] <ikonia> EvaLuaTe: the bot should have sent you a pm
[14:07] <dr0id> I want to exit without killing it ikonia
[14:07] <ikonia> dr0id: kill the script then,
[14:07] <macsim> sipior, nothing spacial
[14:07] <EvaLuaTe> ikonia, it didn't...
[14:07] <ikonia> dr0id: exist the screen, but not kill the process running within the screen
[14:07] <ltcosta> i did
[14:07] <ikonia> dr0id: that can't be done, if you kill the screen, it will kill anything running in the screen
[14:08] <m4xx_> a search for "duplicate menu" on google is mostly about how to remove duplicate menus by deleting them in the menu editor.
[14:08] <coz_> EvaLuaTe,   I would also assume that yo
[14:08] <ikonia> !motu > EvaLuaTe
[14:08] <ikonia> EvaLuaTe: try now
[14:08] <coz_> EvaLuaTe,   that you would have to get onto one of the mailing lists as well
[14:08] <EvaLuaTe> ikonia, yeah, now it worked
[14:08] <ikonia> excellent
[14:08] <dr0id> weird, I just don't want to kill the process but get out of this screen
[14:08] <macsim> sipior, by the way my desktop computer is Ubuntu LTS and my laptop is Ubuntu 10.10, LTS -> 10.10 doesn't work
[14:08] <dr0id> I think closing the console will do it, but that's not a good solution
[14:08] <ikonia> dr0id: alt + a then +d
[14:09] <dr0id> gr8 :)
[14:09] <user124> re, it seems something is still wrong with that asla.. the musicbox changed track and it turned back to 2.0 but it still write 5.1
[14:09] <erUSUL> dr0id: if you are using gnu screen just dettach from the script. like ikonio just said. if you do not use screen stop the script send it to background and disown it then clse the terminal
[14:09] <sipior> macsim: were you trying to copy an entire directory, by the way?
[14:09] <Robinux> ikonia, i guess i'll go for 10.04 mate thanks
[14:09] <ltcosta> it is just install???
[14:09] <ltcosta> i don
[14:10] <ltcosta> i dont want to share, only to see
[14:10] <macsim> sipior, I try with a directory it's stall so I try with a simple tiny file and it's stalled too
[14:10] <UrbanSombrero> All: What method would you recommend for bulk file transfer from a Lucid machine to a Maverick machine? Does personal file sharing work between the two? The things I read suggested that it's not really working out of the box.
[14:10] <sipior> macsim: could you paste the *exact* command you used?
[14:10] <m4xx_> anyone? =[
[14:11] <sipior> UrbanSombrero: how much data we talking about?
[14:11] <UrbanSombrero> sipior: Oh, I dunno, call it 30-40 GB
[14:11] <zhouyuyuan> what?
[14:11] <sipior> UrbanSombrero: rsync is probably the easiest route

[14:20] <sipior> macsim: bizarre.
[14:20] <macsim> sipior, I just saw I got an udev upgrade, I restart the computer
[14:20] <bruceber> Since I've upgraded to 10.10 I can't log into my ubuntu box via ssh (publickey) unless I'm already logged into the machine.  My ~ is encrypted.  This wasn't an issue w/ 10.04.  Anyone else having this problem, or is able to log in  w/ a similar config?
[14:20] <macsim> sipior, let see if its fix something
[14:20] <BluesKaj> hiyas
[14:21] <histo> Trying to adjust volume of an app playing music but want system volume to stay at a different level
[14:22] <rigved> histo: left click on the sound icon i your top panel, then click on sound preferences. under the applications tab, you will see a list of currently running apps which are using sound. control any as you wish
[14:22] <histo> rigved: nice is there a way to do that with console?
[14:23] <macsim> sipior, I restart but it doesn't change transfert still stall

[14:24] <histo> coz_: yeah alsamixer won't show output for specific app though like gnome-volume
[14:24] <sync3time> histo,  that functinality seems like it must be a pulseaudio thing

[14:40] <bushbaby> Hi, Is it possible to install ubuntu straight to a drive from within windows? The install is not for this computer so i'm not looking for wubi, just a way to reformat and install to a blank hdd from within windows. Thanks

[14:43] <Galvatron> amigaman2: Try with "sudo add-apt-repository"
[14:43] <amigaman2> also when i refresh those repos from his site fail
[14:44] <BluesKaj> younder, go into software sources and change the sources to "main"
[14:44] <amigaman2> ok but once again  it will not update key says not changed in term
[14:45] <Galvatron> amigaman2: Paste the output of add-apt-repository in http://pastebin.com
[14:45] <alienmindtrick> how do i set up google voice to use in empathy?
[14:46] <callaghan> coz_: Elementary isn't my favourite theme either, but nautilus-elementary compared to nautilus just looks sleek and sexy (except the location bar ;) )
[14:48] <coz_> callaghan,   understood :)
[14:48] <Galvatron> I went here with an issue as well
[14:50] <amigaman2> http://pastebin.com/kScGndSe

[14:53] <jurgster> hi everyone
[14:53] <gamerpro2000> Hey guys, does anyone know when the multiseat patches are going to be integrated into the main ubuntu branch?
[14:53] <gamerpro2000> for gdm
[14:53] <Roland> what package contains the kernel?
[14:54] <Roland> linux image?
[14:54] <LjL> yes linux-image-blah-blih-bloh
[14:54] <ryan_languagelab> Has anyone successfully set up an OpenLDAP server in 10.10?
[14:55] <gamerpro2000> I'm trying desperately to get a 4 seat multiseat setup working for an ubuntu 10.04 install
[14:55] <amigaman2> http://pastebin.com/PgwuwQ9P there thats what you wanted
[14:55] <Isenn> How do i get back my.cnf? It's missing
[14:55] <gamerpro2000> and, well, it turns out GDM 2.32 didn't get the patches for multiseat to work well added in.
[14:55] <Galvatron> I have an issue as well: In my Bub 10.10 something - not shown in any monitoring tool - eats up hundreds of megabytes of RAM. Since i have only 768MB, this "leak" leads to swapping. The only way to get the missing memory back is a reboot.
[14:55] <amigaman2> <Galvatron >did you get that?
[14:56] <Galvatron> Yes
[14:56] <Typh> what does it mean if I don't have bold in gnome-terminal? Font is Monaco, and bold works fine on other systems.
 if it states the key hasn't changed  shouldn't I see the updated package?
[14:57] <Galvatron> amigaman2: Try to remove this repo from /etc/apt/sources.list and /etc/apt/sources.list.d
[14:57] <jurgster> i am still fresh with linux, googled ref my problems with ubuntu and am slowly getting tiered of not finding what i need. usualy i have my now running ex.hdd on a station but lugging my pc around would be daft so laptop. but my ubuntu wont boot unless i do safe mode. pls help
[14:57] <Galvatron> And after an update add it with the terminal command
ok  don't even know why thery are there lol
[14:59] <jurgster> ??? thinking im thowen out ???
[15:00] <jurgster> oh no
[15:00] <jurgster> :P
never mind last statement
[15:03] <amigaman2> lol
[15:06] <dobak> hi
  could you guide me here on this ?
[15:08] <dobak> why noone drow
 sudo add-apt-repository is this part right?
[15:08] <dobak> where are people
[15:09] <Galvatron> amigaman2: First: 'gksu gedit /etc/apt/sources.list" and remove this PPA, if it is there.
[15:09] <amigaman2> done
[15:09] <jurgster> bum crashed
[15:09] <amigaman2> via gui but  updated my sources list as well
[15:09] <Galvatron> amigaman2: Next "gksu nautilus /etc/apt/sources.list.d" and delete any filec containing the PPA's name
[15:10] <amigaman2> ok the back up  list lol i see where your going there
[15:10] <ripps> Okay, I have 2 monitors, my main is on the right, and a smaller vga one is on the left. I don't really care if X is on the left, I just want an always on commandline. Both using the same X display would be prefered, so that I can launch apps on the right monitor by entering commands in the left
[15:10] <Galvatron> When the PPA is nowhere to be found, "sudo aptitude update"
[15:11] <Galvatron> And finally make a clean addition of this PPA via "sudo add-apt-repository ppa:hydr0g3n/ppa"
[15:14] <tapplek> something is seriously wrong with opengl since I did an update yesterday. glxinfo now hangs indefinitely without producing any output, as do all opengl applications
 done
[15:16] <Galvatron> tapplek: what card do you have?
[15:16] <tapplek> although kwin compositing seems to work oddly
[15:16] <jurgster> right i think i found the problem causing it not to boot, it troes
[15:16] <Galvatron> tapplek: And which drivers are you using?
[15:16] <tapplek> ATI Radeon 7xxx. I forget; I don't know how to tell with glxinfo not working
[15:17] <jurgster> right i think i found the problem causing it not to boot, it tries to load nvidia driver that is not installed on this laptop
[15:17] <ripps> does anybody know how make only 1 monitor my desktop, and the second only populated with widgets?
[15:17] <siddhion> hello, for some reason i have lost the use of my SUPER key. I checked my key board shortcuts and it is not being used there. I used it for the Expo effect and window manipulation (resizing & pinning to edge of screen). Any ideas on how I might regain the use of it?
[15:17] <h-> hi.. my shortcutkeys (alt-f1/2) dont work under ubuntu, running virtualbox also. could this be related?
[15:17] <Galvatron> tapplek: I best recommend asking in the #radeon channel
[15:18] <Crys> Hello! I'm running 10.04.1 on an AMD64 server with qla2xxx fibre channel HBA. In the past few months I'm having trouble with kernel crashes and it's getting worse. It started with a crash every two months but in the last few weeks I sometimes have two, three crashes a day. In the beginning I saw some lines related XFS on the crash screen. Since I only run XFS on the external storages attached to the qla2xxx HBA, I think my issue is related to https://bugs.launc
[15:18] <Crys> hpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/268242
[15:18] <tapplek> thank you Galvatron
[15:18] <Crys> https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/268242

[15:19] <pc_> good night
http://pastebin.com/PgwuwQ9P
[15:20] <Crys> I've tried the suggested solution pci=nomsi without luck. linux-crashdump doesn't dump anything neither does a remote syslog setup give me more information. Any advice? :)
[15:20] <tgywa> is there anyone who is familier with smartmonitor tool?

[15:21] <awanti> Hi, anyone can help me.. I want to install Openemm on my ubuntu machine... i need installation steps... plz. any one!!
IF I could I'd send ya a beer
[15:22] <tgywa> Ok ... does any one know the cause of this error: "SMART ENABLE failed - this establishes that this device lacks SMART functionality."?
[15:23] <maedox> tgywa: It means the disk doesn't support S.M.A.R.T.
[15:23] <amigaman2> no if nvidia would get on the 3d vision boat for linux i'd be set
[15:23] <tgywa> maedox, thank u ... but how can I make the disk support SMART?
[15:24] <red2kic> tgywa: The hard drive you have may be quite old. Most HDD today supports SMART to determine if your HDD is failing or not.
[15:24] <maedox> tgywa: you can't make it, it must support it. All new disks the last few years should.
[15:24] <xrdodrx> maedox, There's no way to "make" it support SMART
[15:24] <xrdodrx> woops, tgywa

[15:27] <BluesKaj> uhm helpme , how did you make it to 3rd yr ? :)
[15:27] <maedox> siddhion: what do you mean? Super is normally the key with a microsoft logo on it, but I guess it depends on the kblayout
[15:27] <helpme> made it through with a 2.5
[15:27] <amrish> Hey Guyz!!
[15:27] <helpme> it was only cuz of my non-engineering courses that i got through....
[15:27] <smellynoser> Hi - Is there anyway to disable usb 2.0 and run all usb ports at usb 1.1? I don't have an ehci-hdc module
[15:27] <siddhion> maedox, yes that is the key i am talking about. The Windows key also known as the Super key.
[15:27] <red2kic> helpme: You sounds as if you're struggling. If you dislike it that much, then you should consider switching your majors.
[15:28] <siddhion> maedox, for some reason it is not working anymore. I used to use it for Expo compiz effect
[15:28] <maedox> siddhion: it should work by default. doesn't it? I has always worked for me.
[15:28] <amrish> m facing problem with my sound system ..i have updated to ubuntu 10.10 and its not working now?(sound system)

[15:29] <xrdodrx> Jprim, hi c:
[15:29] <amrish> help me out Guyz!! my sound system is not working
[15:29] <siddhion> maedox, it used to work but something happened, i think i messed around with some settings somewhere maybe in System > Preferences > Keyboard  or Compiz Config.. I am just not sure.
[15:30] <Jprim> Has anyone jailbroken their iPad? Any iPad linux distros?
[15:30] <maedox> siddhion: oh, ok, I see. Then I'm not much help. Not sure where to look. Maybe you could try to set another keyboard layout temporarily and see if it works then.
[15:31] <xrdodrx> Jprim, I don't think it's advisable to completely remove Apple's iPad OS
[15:31] <maedox> Jprim: I think I saw someone getting Android on it?
[15:31] <goltoof> Jprim,   !offtopic
[15:31] <amrish> can anybody help me to sort out problem with my sound system

[15:32] <Jprim> Ok thanks wasn't sure if there was ubuntu on iPad yet
[15:33] <maedox> siddhion: there might be something under System > Preferences > Keyboard > Layouts > Options button. Check if Alt/Win key is set to 'default'.
[15:33] <tapplek> how do you restart X in ubuntu without rebooting
[15:33] <aeon-ltd> tapplek: kill it and start it
[15:33] <maedox> tapplek: ctrl+alt+f1  then sudo service gdm restart
[15:34] <tapplek> stopping /etc/init.d/x11-common doesn't seem to do anything
[15:34] <tapplek> oh. gdm
[15:34] <aeon-ltd> tapplek: yeah gdm will never let X be fully killed, it will always spawn it again

[15:42] <JediMaster> hi guys, I'm trying to change a user's password via: passwd username, and all I get is: "passwd: password updated successfully" and no password prompt, what's going on?
[15:43] <CrimsonEspada> Can anyone help with checking for X... configure: error: Can't find X includes. Please check your installation and add the correct paths!
[15:44] <jevin> i am getting absolutely terrible performance with 10.04 x86-64 (performance is fine in win7). a 2 second hdparm benchmark takes 24 seconds to execute! see https://gist.github.com/671007
[15:44] <Yerushalmi> Hey folks. I get segfaults whenever running vlc or mplayer. With people's help yesterday we managed to determine that it's a problem with my permissions - can somebody help with this?
[15:44] <jevin> aptitude safe-upgrade will take minutes to install a small package like 'file' and x windows often freeze for several seconds at a time
[15:44] <jevin> the cpu usage as shown by htop is almost nil while the system load values are huge
[15:45] <jevin> is there some bug in my IO or what?
[15:45] <Pixon> JediMaster:check the syntax for passwd
[15:46] <Chousuke> jevin: is something using a lot of memory? or disk?
[15:46] <JediMaster> Pixon, what about it, it's passwd username as I've been using
[15:46] <MarkSS> Is it normal for /etc/.java   /dev/.udev     /dev/.initramfs   to be hidden directories?
[15:47] <Pixon> JediMaster:which version of ubuntu??
[15:47] <xilo> anyone able to connect to msn on empathy?
[15:47] <jevin> Chousuke, right now i've got 1GB free ram, disk usage (reads/writes) should be very low, im just doing stuff like chatting in empathy and xhcat and i still freeze up
[15:47] <siddhion> hello, for some reason i have lost the use of my SUPER key. I checked my key board shortcuts and it is not being used there. I used it for the Expo effect and window manipulation (resizing & pinning to edge of screen). Any ideas on how I might regain the use of it?
[15:47] <JediMaster> this has only started happening since upgrading the machine from 10.04 to 10.10, I've just found someone else with a similar issue, they installed libpam-cracklib and it fixed it, I tried it and it's working now too, more than likely it was the pam authentication options that were reset
[15:47] <quiescens> MarkSS: default installation has no hidden directories in /etc
[15:48] <jevin> when i do something that does more IO like aptitude safe-upgrade the performance is unusable
[15:48] <JediMaster> Pixon 10.10
[15:48] <Chousuke> jevin: hm, yeah
[15:48] <coz_> siddhion,  are you using  compiz?
[15:48] <MarkSS> quiescens: What would cause /etc/.java?
[15:48] <siddhion> coz_, yes
[15:48] <quiescens> MarkSS: oh sorry, wait, default installation simply doesn't have java
[15:48] <quiescens> lol
[15:48] <coz_> siddhion,  ok lets try something   open ccsm and go to preferences
[15:48] <Chousuke> jevin: which kernel version are you using? IIRC newer kernels have some IO optimisations
[15:48] <jevin> right now i have htop open, xchat, empathy and my system load is 5.6 while the cpu usage totals less than 15%
[15:49] <Chousuke> jevin: try installing iotop and see if you get anything there
[15:49] <siddhion> coz_, ok i am there
[15:49] <coz_> siddhion,   there hit the "Export" button and name the file and export to the Desktop , then click the  Reset to defaults button
[15:49] <jevin> Chousuke, 2.6.32-26-generic
[15:49] <Chousuke> jevin: I'm not sure if Ubuntu's .32 has the optimisations
[15:49] <sipior> jevin: can you paste the whole cpu line from top?
[15:49] <MarkSS> I have gotten Java since then.  Is this something I should worry about?  I know I've seen it in the updates list at least once
[15:49] <Yerushalmi>  I get a segfault whenever I run vlc or mplayer. Yesterday with help from this chatroom we managed to determine that it's a problem with my permissions - can somebody help with this?
[15:49] <jevin> Chousuke, i did but I need to enable CONFIG_TASK_DELAY_ACCT in the kernel to get anything useful
[15:49] <coz_> siddhion,  see if the use of Super returns... if so , then there was a conflict within the compiz settings and you can delete the exported settings and start resetting compiz one setting at a time
[15:50] <jevin> Chousuke, so im getting ready to build my current kernel version/config with that enabled and also the latest kernel to see if its fixed
[15:50] <quiescens> MarkSS: i believe it is normal when you have java
[15:50] <coz_> siddhion,  if you get a "conflict" dialog... use those dialogs to fix the conflict which may mean disabling other keybindings within compiz
[15:50] <Chousuke> jevin: if you know how to do that, go ahead.
[15:50] <j_ayen_green> I have a shell script that does several iterations of copying an old sql dump file to another name and then does a mysqldump. Problem is that it's remote mysql, and if the isp has given me a class c that I haven't white listed yet, the first mysqldump will die. I'd like to test for that rather than have 20 0-byte dump files at the end of the script.
[15:51] <siddhion> coz_, ok i reseted and the SUPER key is still not working
[15:51] <gp5st> hi! I'm trying to get a serial card to work. it's a 'NetMos Technology PCI 9865 Multi-I/O Controller'.  It has 6 serial ports ttyS[0-3] and ttyD[0-1].  I connected 4 and 6 together with a null modem cable, and opened up gtkterm, and connected 2 terminals (the ones I believe are the cords labeled 4 and 6 from what others have posted) to 2 windows.  DTR and RTS are both lit in the status bar of gtkterm for both windows.  Am I doing something wrong?  Ho
[15:51] <Chousuke> jevin: Also, you can make deb packages from kernel sources with make-kpkg
[15:51] <Chousuke> jevin: you don't need to, but I think it makes things easier to manage :)
[15:51] <coz_> siddhion,  mm   somehow you have to be sure that the keyboard itself is not broken
[15:52] <coz_> siddhion,  does the right super key work?
[15:52] <jevin> sipior, here you go https://gist.github.com/671007 it took >30 seconds to start a new shell and open top
[15:53] <siddhion> coz_, the right super key? I have one key with a pointer going through a list. i guess that would be it?
[15:53] <coz_> siddhion,  this is a laptop?

[16:04] <sjk> Hello. I've got a MacBook (fourth generation) and I'd like to dualboot OS X and Ubuntu. The documentation says that "This information will not work for iMac (11,1) users and recent version of Ubuntu (e.g. Maverick).". Does that mean that it wont work for 10.10, or does it just mean it wont work for 10.10 on the iMac?
[16:05] <sjk> (I don't have an iMac, so if that's the case then there are no worries)
[16:05] <sjk> Here's the page I'm looking at: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MactelSupportTeam/AppleIntelInstallation

[16:44] <Kage[Work]> Got a quick packaging question..  So I work for my uni, and we use GroupWise here.  My department maintains our own minid server.  So, we have an .rpm of the GroupWise client, and using alien I converted it to a .deb.  I tried to extract everything and make a custom package out of it, but shlibs keep breaking (whereas leaving it alone as the .deb alien produces works fine).
[16:44] <Kage[Work]> So, my question is this: Since the alient-produced .deb works fine, and I'm tired of mucking with it.. How can I place the .deb on our minid server without a .changes or .tar.gz ?
[16:46] <aeMaeth> hxcjonnysniper, that's not ubuntu related, that's a router issue
[16:47] <drizz|e> anybody know what do i need to make a hotspot server out of ubuntu?

[16:48] <Quagmire> Hello Guys, I upgraded a business laptop to 10.04 the other day and some nice guy here was helping me, but he had to leave and while I did get things running I didn't get one thing straightened out. The guy had me go to the other side of my hdd & take the partition that had Win XP sitting dormant and make a small partition inside of it about 2gb in size where I'm pretty sure he was going to have me place my old /Home folder (from the
[16:48] <Quagmire> old 9.04 install) since we labeled the 2gb partition as /home and the other big area where XP was overwritten as /
[16:50] <Quagmire> Could someone help me get my old /home folder working inside of 10.04 correctly?
[16:50] <aeMaeth> Quagmire, can you copy the old /home/ into the new /home/ so you can delete it?
[16:50] <wakko10warner> http://www.alsa-project.org/db/?f=7a...23fc584f63cd6d <-- could someone help me get my microphone working please. I included the output of alsa-info.sh
[16:50] <ct529> I have aserious problem with evolution on ubuntu 1004 lts. I have 480 emails in my inbox, but evolution says "downloading message 57275" and takes ages to download a message header or search through messages. What is going on?
[16:51] <tola_> I've just started using Ubuntu One in Ubuntu 10.04 to sync files and I feel like I'm missing something. There's no icon in my notification area and no special icons for folders I'm syncing. Is that right?
[16:51] <joe_> Hi, I just installed photoshop with crossover, on my ubuntu...however it does not appear in my menue?
[16:51] <hdon> Quagmire, could you run "mount" and give us the output. also give us the output of fstab
[16:51] <Quagmire> aeMaeth: I'm pretty sure I can, but I want to make sure I do things right, so I don't create problems.
[16:52] <hdon> Quagmire, fstab is in /etc/fstab
[16:52] <Quagmire> hdon: do you want me to run Mount in a terminal window?
[16:52] <hdon> Quagmire, yes lowercase m
[16:53] <hdon> Quagmire, give us your results with http://pastebin.com/
[16:53] <Quagmire> hdon: one minute and I will do a pastebin of the output of the mount
[16:53] <hdon> Quagmire, please include also /etc/fstab
[16:53] <hdon> Quagmire, mount will 90% certain tell us you haven't finished accomplishing your goal of your old /home
[16:54] <hdon> but always best to be certain ;)
[16:54] <histo> why would synaptic be a dependancy of firefox?
[16:54] <Quagmire> hdon: http://pastebin.com/QeaspWyt
[16:55] <hdon> histo, lol is it?
[16:55] <timahvo1> timahvo1: says hi
[16:55] <IdleOne> histo: apturls maybe? I have no idea really
[16:56] <Quagmire> hdon: I have gparted installed if you need any info from it
[16:56] <hdon> Quagmire, so your current /home is not the /home you want?
[16:57] <rusivi> joe_: You should direct questions about crossover to channel #crossover
[16:57] <hdon> Quagmire, if that is the case then you made a mistake creating a new /home partition (/dev/sda3)
[16:57] <aeMaeth> tola_, check under your name on the top right near the shutdown
[16:57] <asus_> HU
[16:57] <histo> hdon: yeah installing on my system it pulled synaptic and about 55mb of garbage. 200+MB installed space
[16:57] <asus_> Hi
[16:57] <asus_> does anybody now how to install Metatrader 4 in Xubuntu ?
[16:58] <hdon> histo, what's your list.sources say?
[16:59] <nevermind> did anybody manage to run Age of Empires 1 on Ubuntu?
[16:59] <histo> asus_: aparently it works in wine
[16:59] <nevermind> it says it needs CD
[16:59] <kmiksi> nevermind: try PlayOnLinux
[16:59] <Quagmire> hdon: What is the logical way to fix things? I believe I dragged certain things over to the small partition ...and i said it wrong we made it 10 gb
[16:59] <rooks> i managed to get my asics shoes and run around :)
[16:59] <mrcreativity> can anyone tell me if its possible to use a usb drive as an apt source
[16:59] <asus_> in my case it even does not run setup
[17:00] <histo> asus_: install wine and download mt4setup from fxopen then open a terminal cd to where your downloaded it. Then wine mt4setup.exe
 yes, just add it to sources list
[17:00] <histo> asus_: perhaps check the wine appsdb maybe someone has a way to get it going
[17:00] <Buttons840> i've connected to a remote server using nautilus, and the connection is shown on my desktop;   how can i reference files on the remote server from the shell, i want to run a meld on a local file vs the remote file?
[17:00] <mrcreativity> nevermind, how exactly do i do that?
[17:00] <kmiksi> mrcreativity: you can use AptOnCd
[17:00] <asus_> i did it but i recieve error window and nothing happens
[17:01] <histo> asus_: look on wine's appdb or as in #winehq
[17:01] <hdon> Quagmire, well you'll want to repartition to get your old home back. have you confirmed that you still have access to your old /home ?
[17:01] <Dantix> hi all! I'm trying to install desktop version and the computer hangs with the white Ubuntu's logo on black screen and blinking CapsLock/ScrollLock. Where can I start to troubleshoot this?
[17:02] <Quagmire> hdon: I have 1.8gb of info stored in the small 10gb /home folder we made the other day, but I still don't have all of my old info over there from the OLD /home folder. It looks like I copied some stuff over when someone else was helping me, but that is not the best fix, so now I have some moved and some not. Dang whatr a small mess
[17:02] <rusivi> asus_: http://appdb.winehq.org/objectManager.php?sClass=version&iId=2893
[17:03] <X-Sleepy-X> Dantix: The flashing thing on capslock etc sound like when i get kernel panic on an old laptop of mine....
[17:03] <X-Sleepy-X> Dantix: what kind of pc hardware do you have?
[17:03] <IdleOne> Could someone walk me through adding Windows 7 to Grub2?
[17:04] <Dantix> X-Sleepy-X: regular asrock with SiS chipset, Celeron 800, 640Mb RAM
[17:04] <Quagmire> hdon: What is the best way to get this resolved without creating total mayhem
[17:04] <mbeierl> lmk if this is not the right place to ask: I like to have proposed turned on, and use tux-on-ice ppa kernels at the same time.  problem is that proposed often gives me kernels that are newer than the tux-on-ice ppa kernels.  How do I "prefer" kernels from the ppa instead of proposed?
[17:05] <tiberious_> IdleOne: something about chainloader +1 or something?
[17:05] <twig11> Please help me with a problem I'm having with sound. When I switch users with Rhythmbox open in the original account, Rhythmbox refuses to play any sound in the second account. Is there a way to fix this?
[17:05] <X-Sleepy-X> Dantix: sound like it should work. have you tested the alternate cd?
[17:05] <evident> hi everybody! I have da dualboot system and with a ntfs partition which is automatically mounted when starting... when I open nautilus it is shown there as "system" ( the name of the partition)... but on which path is it? I would like to start nautilus from the command line to the workspace folder in that partition...
[17:05] <IdleOne> tiberious_: to be honest I have never edited grub.cfg and I am worried I am going to break everything
[17:05] <Dantix> X-Sleepy-X: I'm just downloading the new 10.10
[17:06] <hdon> Quagmire, well firstly you need to gain access to your old /home. do you know what partition that is on?
[17:06] <aeMaeth> evident, it's probably somewhere in /media/<folder with a bunch of random letters and numbers>
[17:06] <mbeierl> evident: go to a terminal and type "mount" and see if it shows there
[17:06] <Quagmire> hdon: Does it make more sense to just copy manually everything out of the old /home folder and bring the documents info over a bit at a time to make sure i don;t create havoc
[17:06] <X-Sleepy-X> Dantix: as alternate?
[17:06] <IdleOne> tiberious_: basically I installed Ubuntu but the windows7 install is not showing up in grub as a boot option.
[17:07] <AngryMatter> how to swith back to Gnome from Unity ? Im running 9.x
[17:07] <Quagmire> hdon: I can clearly see all of my old home folder... well the part I didn't already start moving a bit at a time to the NEW /home folder
[17:07] <Dantix> X-Sleepy-X: yes, but are ther a way to get more information from the installer?
[17:07] <mrcreativity> AngryMatter, u need to choose the session type during login
[17:07] <evident> thanks at aeMaeth and mbeierl ... it worked... it was in /mount... just didnt know where... though of something like /dev/sda* but didnt find anything there
[17:07] <evident> it was just in /media/sytem/workspace
[17:07] <hdon> Quagmire, it can be easier to copy your old /home if your UIDs and GIDs are different, i guess
[17:08] <Quagmire> hdon: the situation is that I started moving things over from the old to the new
[17:08] <hdon> can you finish?
[17:08] <AngryMatter> mrcreativity: ooh.. thanks.. I was only trying the gdmmanager with no luck. thanks :) Seems that Unity has a long way to go.
[17:08] <Quagmire> Well actually my User ID is different
[17:08] <X-Sleepy-X> Dantix: perhaps if you press ctrl alt f1 or f2 to get to a console mode...
[17:08] <X-Sleepy-X> Dantix: im not sure though
[17:08] <Quagmire> I'm not sure what GID stands for
[17:08] <mbeierl> evident: the /dev/sdX things are the actual access to the raw data.  the file system itself is not accessible through those paths
[17:08] <MTec007> how can i seperate empathy from the notifier applet on the panel?
[17:08] <Yan_Nick> hey guys, why I got a "invalid argument" after ran "sudo iwconfig wlan0 essid NETWORK_ID key WIRELESS_KEY" ?
[17:09] <twig11> I need help with a problem I'm having with sound. When I switch users with Rhythmbox open in the original account, Rhythmbox refuses to play any sound in the second account. Is there a way to fix this?
[17:09] <Yan_Nick> " invalid argument "WIRELESS_KEY"."
[17:09] <Dantix> X-Sleepy-X: ok I'll try that, anyway thanks!
[17:09] <hdon> Quagmire, the UID i refer to is numeric, not the username text
[17:09] <mrcreativity> AngryMatter, i dont like unity
[17:09] <X-Sleepy-X> Dantix: you could perhaps also start the installer without the quiet option if you're able to and if it is one...
[17:09] <Quagmire> hdon: excuse me I didn't address that last stuff directly to you. Hmmm I'm a bit lost, maybe you can help me get this. I'm far from dense. LOL
[17:09] <hdon> Quagmire, GID = group id
[17:10] <hdon> Quagmire, use "groups username" to find the groups you're in
[17:10] <Dantix> X-Sleepy-X: I didn't see such option on installer screen
[17:10] <Quagmire> I got nothing when I typed groups username into the terminal
[17:10] <X-Sleepy-X> Dantix: perhaps you'll see it in the alternate cd
[17:11] <Dantix> X-Sleepy-X: right
[17:11] <hdon> Quagmire, you need to identify which partition contains your old /home, then you need to mount the partition. i originally asked you for the output of "mount" command and the file /etc/fstab. still waiting on the l.atter
[17:11] <X-Sleepy-X> Dantix: by pressing one of the F# keys
[17:11] <hdon> Quagmire, did you type literally "username" and not your own username?
[17:11] <Quagmire> hdon: groups: username: No such user
[17:11] <hdon> ^^ Quagmire
[17:11] <Dantix> X-Sleepy-X: I'll try to find it, thanks
[17:12] <Quagmire> hdon: I gave you the pastebin of the mount. I can repost it.
[17:12] <asus_> does anybody now how to install Metatrader 4 in Xubuntu ? i try all links but i could not install it i ve just receive and error icon and the title File not found
[17:12] <X-Sleepy-X> Dantix: best of luck
[17:12] <hdon> Quagmire, i have the pastebin of mount. i am waiting on the fstab
[17:12] <hdon> Quagmire, please pastebin the contents of /etc/fstab
[17:12] <Quagmire> hdon: I'll get it real quick
[17:13] <MTec007> Hello, how can I separate empathy from the notifier applet on the panel?
[17:13] <xrdodrx> MTec007, you can't at this time :(
[17:13] <MTec007> xrdodrx: what package makes it work hand in hand?
[17:14] <xrdodrx> MTec007, you're talking about the notifications that appear, correct?
[17:14] <Quagmire> hdon: http://pastebin.com/HM5CPY82  This is the Fstab infp
[17:14] <xrdodrx> such as when you connect to a wireless network, etc.
[17:15] <Owner1> does anyone know how to install all parts of ubuntu studio?
[17:15] <MTec007> something is doing it, so there is something that can be removed. no when i get a new message, i dont get a window that pops up, it just hides in the notifier applet until i open it
[17:15] <IdleOne> Owner1: sudo apt-get install ubuntustudio-desktop
[17:16] <hdon> Quagmire, ok well this provides no clues concerning which partition is your old /home. you'll need to run "fdisk -l" on your disks like /dev/hda /dev/hdb /dev/sda /dev/sdb and find partitions which are marked as (probably) Linux
[17:16] <IdleOne> Owner1: you will need to log out and select Studio at the login screen under the Session button.
[17:16] <IdleOne> after installing that package
[17:16] <X-Sleepy-X> MTec007: i usually remove indicator-me and indicator-messages
[17:16] <MTec007> X-Sleepy-X: i will try it
[17:17] <hdon> Quagmire, to try one, choose an empty directory, or mkdir a new directory (this is your mountpoint,) then use "mount -r -t auto /dev/xxxx mountpoint"
[17:17] <Vartonst> Привет
[17:17] <hdon> Quagmire, then if you finish with it, use umount mointpoint or umount /dev/xxxx
[17:17] <X-Sleepy-X> MTec007: perhaps you only need to loose one of them but it will affect all the programs using those packages
[17:17] <IdleOne> !ru | Vartonst
[17:17] <Jygga> can somebody tell me how the file ownership in /var/run should look like?
[17:17] <hdon> Quagmire, do all this as root (use "sudo bash" to get your hands on a dangerous root shell)
[17:17] <MTec007> i dont like the new "social network" being tied into my OS
[17:18] <X-Sleepy-X> MTec007: me neither
[17:18] <Quagmire> hdon: I'm trying the commands you listed, but not getting anywhere with them
[17:18] <hdon> MTec007, your panel isn't really your OS
[17:18] <chengjiangtao> 0
[17:18] <Jygga> chown -R bla:bla .* is fun -.-
[17:18] <hdon> Quagmire, you'll simply have to be much more specific than that
[17:18] <X-Sleepy-X> MTec007: then just run sudo apt-get remove indicator-me indicator-messages and log out and back in again
[17:18] <Quagmire> hdon: I have GPARTED open and there is info listed there
[17:18] <MTec007> its not my web browser either, it shouldnt have social networking on it
[17:18] <hdon> Quagmire, that will suffice for fdisk -l
[17:19] <MTec007> brb
[17:19] <hdon> Quagmire, unfortunately i am completely unfamiliar with gparted
[17:19] <Quagmire> hdon: I can see that my old 9.04 system and home folder is all listed inside of a /dev/sda5
[17:21] <Kindari|work> What would you suggest for converting avi files to dvd.
[17:21] <IdleOne> winff
[17:22] <IdleOne> Kindari|work: winff it's in the repositories/Synaptic
[17:22] <hdon> Quagmire, oh, i see, so you didn't have a separate partition for /home on your old system!
[17:22] <Kindari|work> Will that let you make dvd menus and such?
[17:23] <IdleOne> Kindari|work: no, it converts files.
[17:23] <hdon> Quagmire, well i suppose you can mount that and copy your files if you want. do you need help mounting?
[17:23] <aeMaeth> Kindari|work, like devede?
[17:23] <X-Sleepy-X> MTec007: wb
[17:24] <mike___> sudo rm -rf /
[17:24] <bouncing> Hey all, a while ago I installed an app I can't find and I'm wondering if anyone knows its package name. It took mail like a local sendmail server, but then logged into an authenticated smtp account to send it (like a gmail account). It was very handy for desktop use. Anyone know what I'm talking about?
[17:24] <IdleOne> !danger
[17:24] <MTec007> X-Sleepy-X: wonderful, its exactly what i wanted
[17:24] <Quagmire> hdon: I sent a link to a screenshot of my system in a private message
[17:24] <X-Sleepy-X> MTec007: :D
[17:25] <MTec007> lol @mike___
[17:25] <Kindari|work> aeMaeth: just looked at devede, looks like what I want. Have you used it before, is it reliable?
[17:25] <IdleOne> MTec007: not funny
[17:26] <X-Sleepy-X> IdleOne: it would have been if he entered it in his terminal by mistake instead of here
[17:26] <tola_> aeMaeth: thanks, I found it. I was hoping for some kind of status icon!
[17:26] <aeMaeth> Kindari|work, i have used it to author dvd's if i remember correctly it can make some basic menu's but nothing professional level, good for giving videos to friends and family, or personal backup imo
[17:26] <MTec007> IdleOne: i know but at the same time..
[17:26] <Kindari|work> aeMaeth: thanks.
[17:27] <IdleOne> MTec007: at the same time encouraging trolls by laughing are the stupidity they do gives them a reason to keep doing it.
[17:27] <X-Sleepy-X> isn't it possible to ctrl c that command?
[17:27] <aeMaeth> and really i say non-prefessional because i don't think you could change where buttons go, etc.  but it'll put chapters on and such
[17:27] <IdleOne> s/are/at
[17:28] <MTec007> IdleOne: i though there was a safety to prevent that command?
[17:28] <Kindari|work> MTec007: do you want to test it?
[17:28] <x_> my ubuntu10.10 cant recognize my wifi card centrino 6200 agn
[17:28] <MTec007> Kindari|work: no
[17:28] <IdleOne> ok then.
[17:28] <aeMaeth> then lets put it in our past
[17:28] <MTec007> yeah
[17:28] <chengjiangtao> 的
[17:29] <chengjiangtao> 有人在吗
[17:29] <aeMaeth> one day we will look back on this and laugh, and laugh, and laugh, and laugh, ohhhhhh boy
[17:29] <IdleOne> !cn | chengjiangtao
[17:30] <x_> guys help! my ubuntu10.10 cant recognize my wifi card centrino 6200 agn
[17:30] <x_> plz
[17:31] <X-Sleepy-X> x_: have you looked in jockey-gtk for a driver?
[17:33] <alkisg> If I need to upgrade my Lucid kernel to some newer version (e.g. because of atl1e bugs), what's the recommended way to do that? https://edge.launchpad.net/~kernel-ppa/+archive/ppa/+packages ?
[17:33] <Sean93_> how would i rename several files with different extrensions? for example abc.rar and abc.sfv to ab.rar and ab.sfv? i want to keep the extensions of the files the same
[17:34] <alkisg> Sean93_: man rename
[17:34] <andai> what's the wine channel?
[17:34] <Sean93_> alkisg, i though you renamed files with mv?
[17:35] <alkisg> Sean93_: yes, but if you want regexes, then there's another app called rename
[17:35] <X-Sleepy-X> !wine | andai
[17:35] <Sean93_> andai, its #winehq oe #wine-hq i think
[17:35] <andai> X-Sleepy-X: thanks
[17:36] <Sean93_> alkisg, what are regexes?
[17:37] <Sean93_> alkisg,  thanks
[17:37] <x_> i dont know what is that
[17:37] <alkisg> Sean93_: regexes are a way to match and replace strings, see http://manpages.ubuntu.com/rename for an example
[17:37] <holmser_> XChat highlights my spelling errors, is there a way to have it correct them?
[17:38] <IdleOne> holmser_: baclspace
[17:38] <Sean93_> holmser_, right click, spelling suggestion
[17:38] <IdleOne> backspace*
[17:38] <alkisg> Sean93_: wrong link, that's the one: http://manpages.ubuntu.com/manpages/karmic/man2/rename.2.html
[17:38] <alkisg> Dah no
[17:38] <alkisg> How many rename are there :D
[17:39] <IdleOne> Sean93_: heh, thanks I had no idea xchat did that :)
[17:39] <alkisg> Sean93_: ok, that's the one: http://manpages.ubuntu.com/manpages/dapper/man1/prename.1.html
[17:39] <crissi> hello
[17:39] <aeMaeth> IdleOne, i thought it was part of a larger spellcheck...
[17:39] <X-Sleepy-X> crissi: hi
[17:39] <crissi> i just upgraded to 10.10 some days
[17:40] <crissi> now i have the problem that sh connections freeze after some minutes
[17:40] <crissi> ssh
[17:40] <crissi> it happens after upgrade
[17:40] <crissi> whats wrong there and how to fix it?
[17:41] <defacer> apt-get -P ssh-server
[17:42] <defacer> apt-get install ssh-server
[17:42] <crissi> ssh server?
[17:42] <crissi> is on the client
[17:42] <X-Sleepy-X> openssh-server
[17:42] <crissi> the server has not changed
[17:42] <joe85> I am trying to install Ubuntu on my Kingston SSD after the install the system says "now you'll reboot", then nothing happens. So I force a reboot. I just get a flashing cursor when trying to boot the ssd
[17:43] <X-Sleepy-X> joe85: try getting into recovery mode and run fsck
[17:43] <defacer> try to press ESC when booting to see text mode what's happen, try to enter single user after and see the logs using messages or dmesg
[17:50] <twig11> I need help with a problem I'm having with sound. When I switch users with Rhythmbox open in the original account, Rhythmbox refuses to play any sound in the second account. Is there a way to fix this?
[17:50] <bouncing> anyone... smtp proxy that proxies to an authenticated smtp relay account (ala gmail, etc)?
[17:50] <goltoof> !anyone | bouncing
[17:50] <tado> every time i subscribe to a feed, the feed is opened automatically in thunderbird and not in liferea, does anyone know how to set liferea as the default rss reader?
[17:50] <blue_anna> Does anyone know how to diagnose keyboard issues with xwindows?
[17:51] <bouncing> goltoof: That is my real question. An SMTP server that just takes all email and proxies it through an authenticated account.
[17:51] <alkisg> If I need to upgrade my Lucid kernel to some newer version (e.g. because of atl1e bugs), what's the recommended way to do that? https://launchpad.net/~kernel-ppa/+archive/ppa ?
[17:51] <bouncing> twig11: Does other sound play in other apps?
[17:51] <AbhiJit> tado, it opens in default web browser. so set liferea as default web browser
[17:51] <blue_anna> how do I diagnose keyboard issues with xwindows?
[17:52] <goltoof> alksig, change your sources to maverick (the newest one)
[17:52] <bouncing> blue_anna: That's a pretty broad question, but xev is almost always useful
[17:52] <goltoof> alkisg,   then sudo apt-get update
[17:52] <tado> AbhiJit: why would i set it as default web browser? wouldn't that mess up with my actual web browser?
[17:52] <joe85> I pressed escape
[17:52] <joe85> but it does not show me any messages
[17:53] <alkisg> goltoof: that'll update all my packages - I'm *only* looking for a newer kernel, not to leave my LTS...
[17:53] <blue_anna> bouncing, on boot, my login screen appears. if I try to enter a password, no text is entered. but I can ctl+alt+backspace so there is some functionality. if I unplug the keyboard and plug it back in, I can then enter the password like normal
[17:53] <AbhiJit> tado, yes it wll mess up. but tahts the way
[17:53] <bouncing> blue_anna: But you can type your username?
[17:53] <blue_anna> bouncing, I haave the same issue once I log in .. xev sees the keypress events, but still no text is entered until I replug the keyboard
[17:53] <tado> AbhiJit: there is not way to avoid thunderbird from opening rss feeds? or to set liferea as default reader?
[17:54] <tado> AbhiJit: and thunderbird is not a web browser either...
[17:54] <AbhiJit> tado, there will be but i not sure
[17:54] <blue_anna> bouncing, no, I dont think so .. I have 10.10, I select my username, not type it
[17:54] <blue_anna> the mouse works just fine
[17:54] <blue_anna> :P
[17:54] <bouncing> blue_anna: Do you select your username with the keyboard or mouse? Like to tab, etc work?
[17:55] <blue_anna> ooh, I cannot just press enter to select the username .. I usually use the mouse for taht though so I barely noticed
[17:55] <cousin_mario> hello
[17:55] <tado> AbhiJit: alright, will keep looking then. must be a way: that's what liferea is supposed to do after all...
[17:55] <cousin_mario> the network applet disappeared after rebooting
[17:55] <bouncing> blue_anna: What if you press ctrl+alt+f1 to access a text console? Does it switch to text-mode and can you type there?
[17:55] <AbhiJit> hmm
[17:55] <cousin_mario> after a power loss, to be exact
[17:56] <twig11> bouncing: I just checked, and it seems that there is no sound in any app in the second account
[17:56] <blue_anna> bouncing, oddly, yes
[17:56] <goltoof> alkisg,   check kernel version:  uname -r ,   find available kernel images:   apt-cache search linux-image,  install kernel by specifying version number:   apt-get install linux-image-x.x.x-xx
[17:56] <blue_anna> bouncing, and also the ctl+alt+backspace work
[17:56] <blue_anna> and the console works just fine, always
[17:56] <joe85> any idea what to do if I get stuck at a blinking cursor? early someone recommended I press escape to see what was happening but that doesnt do anything
[17:56] <bouncing> twig11: Sounds like a locking issue. The only thing I can think of is to kill pulseaudio
[17:57] <twig11> Which is done how?
[17:57] <mohadib> is it possible to diable the warning about using /etc/init.d/foo stop as oppsoed to "service" command
[17:57] <twig11> bouncing: How?
[17:57] <mohadib> what if i dont want to use service
[17:57] <bouncing> blue_anna: That's a weird problem. And you said after you login, xev reports events but you can't type anything (out of curiosity, how did you start xev?)
[17:57] <abbig> hi there, I have a question related with overriding DSDT. How can I load custom DSDT in 2.6.35 kernel without recompiling the kernel? Patch from http://gaugusch.at/kernel.shtml seems not to work. Any ideas?
[17:57] <bouncing> twig11: You'd have to be root and run something like "pkill -9 pulseaudio", but that's just a guess.
[17:57] <blue_anna> bouncing, I put it in my history with the console .. oo I forgot to mention, the number pad works once I log in :) so I can scroll through the history with that
[17:58] <blue_anna> bouncing, then I copy and paste a \n
[17:58] <twig11> bouncing: does pulseaudio restart automatically, or what?
[17:58] <bouncing> blue_anna: Wow. Do the xev events look the same after you unplug your keyboard?
[17:58] <abraao> hi all
[17:58] <blue_anna> bouncing, yes
[17:58] <abraao> i would like to know how can i disable acpi using a live cd
[17:59] <abraao> someone?
[17:59] <blue_anna> abraao, I think it is a service? sudo serivce acpi stop
[17:59] <bouncing> twig11: It might. But if you kill it before you switch users, that would isolate the problem.
[17:59] <frk> abraao, past boot option noacpi
[18:00] <bouncing> blue_anna: I'd also try another desktop. Like if you're on Gnome, try logging into xfce or KDE if you have those installed. It might be a gtk/gnome issue, since xev is reporting
[18:00] <bouncing> That would at least isolate the problem
[18:00] <blue_anna> bouncing, well, the problem is before the desktop .. its at the login screen
[18:00] <abbig>  How can I load custom DSDT in 2.6.35 kernel without recompiling the kernel? Patch from http://gaugusch.at/kernel.shtml seems not to work.  Any ideas?
[18:01] <bouncing> blue_anna: right, but the login screen (gdm, kdm, etc) use the same libraries. gdm uses gnome libraries, kdm uses KDE libraries, etc.
[18:01] <bouncing> If gtk+ is somehow buggy, it would affect both gnome and gdm.
[18:01] <blue_anna> bouncing, well, thank you :) but, if I can't log in Im not going to find a solution by logging into a different desktop
[18:01] <abraao> thx blue_anna and frk, i find the option
[18:02] <bouncing> blue_anna: Well, you might, if as you mentioned the problem resets after the login.
[18:02] <goltoof> my screen looks TERRIBLE when I log in/out of my system.   all kinds of ugly errors appear and this is a fresh install...  i'd really like to find a way to hide it with a nifty splash screen, or have it disable the monitor before it shuts down... idk
[18:02] <bouncing> Like you could replug your keyboard in, type your password, login to xfce, and see if the problem is there again.
[18:02] <bouncing> (xfce is also gtk+ based, but it's less contrived)
[18:02] <blue_anna> bouncing, are you saying i can change the desktop manager for the login screen? how do I do this?
[18:02] <mbreslin> would I be able to run a full featured window manager like kde with acess to all the usual graphical apps over vncserver without ever having actually run it locally?
[18:02] <twig11> Where can I get a clear explanation of how sound works in ubuntu? I have read tutorials saying that pulseaudio is too buggy and how to change to ALSA, and so on, but I don't even have a clear grasp of what these are and how they work. I'd be grateful if someone could point me in the right direction for a primer on how sound works in linux and ubuntu.
[18:03] <goltoof> !sound
[18:03] <bouncing> blue_anna: Also worth a shot. If you apt-get install kdm, it will prompt you on installation whether you want it to become the default.
[18:03] <Big_Potato> Can someone look at this http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1617667
[18:03] <mohadib> anyone
[18:03] <bouncing> blue_anna: If kdm doesn't exhibit the behavior, you know it's gdm/gnome/gtk+
[18:03] <blue_anna> if you're having problems with sound, we hold weekly funerals for mobo's like yours, please see funeral.ubuntu.org for deatils :P
[18:03] <mohadib> what if i like using init scripts directly?
[18:03] <mohadib> wht if i got a lot of code that uses them
[18:04] <mohadib> i dont want to use the service command
[18:04] <Quagmire> Guys is there a way to copy my old 9.04 system on an external hdd? I keep getting error messages
[18:04] <mohadib> why is ubuntu trying to force this
[18:04] <blue_anna> bouncing, got it :) I'll try that thanks
[18:04] <bouncing> blue_anna: np
[18:04] <p4rk3r3oy> I have having an issue with a wine program...It want run while the system debugger is running...any help
[18:04] <goltoof> Quagmire,    most likely if you copy it you'll be copying the errors along with it :)
[18:04] <stodertoad> hello I am trying to share files over the network with ubuntu and when I goto personal file sharing preferences it says 'this feature cannot be enabled because the required packages are not installed...'
[18:04] <stodertoad> so what packages do i need
[18:05] <LeoSh> can hal and dbus be safely removed from an ubuntu server? (doesn't require gnome or anything else x11 related)
[18:05] <bassliner> hm, i just installed kde4 on an ubuntu 10.10 installation and kde is, even with compositing disabled, so damn slow that i can barely use it; especially moving a window on top of another slows down extremely. gnome, fluxbox and windowmaker didn't have any impacts. any idea what could be wrong here?
[18:05] <albanian> stodertoad: install sssh packet
[18:05] <whitequark> hello. I have a problem on maverick (it was on lucid, too): scrolling in GTK apps like gedit or gnome-terminal takes ages and xorg consumes 100% of cpu, while chrome scrolls smoothly. I have proprietary nvidia-legacy drivers installed. what can cause that?
[18:05] <Quagmire> goltoof: I'm just trying to make a copy so I can move partitons around and bring the info into my new install
[18:05] <IdleOne> stodertoad: you need to install samba
[18:05] <IdleOne> !samba | stodertoad
[18:06] <mbreslin> is it possible to setup vnc server and get something comperable to the default kde desktop without having ran it ever locally?
[18:06] <stodertoad> i have samba installed
[18:06] <albanian> stodertoad: install sssh packet
[18:06] <Quagmire> goltoof: There is no problems other than the way I set ubuntu up the first time back with 8.04
[18:06] <stodertoad> synaptic doesn't find sssh
[18:06] <IdleOne> because it doesn't exist
[18:06] <IdleOne> he means ssh
[18:06] <whitequark> gedit is completely unusable
[18:07] <bouncing> whitequark: Have you tried the non-proprietary drivers?
[18:07] <whitequark> bouncing: same.
[18:07] <bouncing> whitequark: Heh. Well maybe the drivers are installed, but X isn't using them.
[18:07] <goltoof> Quagmire,   personally i'd use live cd of 10.10  (or whatever you like) and drag and drop everything you want to keep
[18:07] <whitequark> bouncing: glxinfo doesn't think so
[18:07] <kencausey> In case anyone is curious my earlier problems turned out to be with the nouveau driver
[18:08] <LeoSh> any thoughts on hal and dbus?
[18:08] <whitequark> bouncing: because it displays correct Nvidia vendor strings, and nv's/nouveau's too
[18:08] <p4rk3r3oy> i am having an issue with an wine program. Says it want run while system debugger is running....any help???
[18:08] <jurgentje> Hi ... I'm trying to connect to a TI 430 board in Ubuntu... followed these steps: http://mylightswitch.com/2010/06/21/installing-mpsgcc4-and-mspdebug-on-kubuntu-1004/   ... but I don't know what /dev/tty number I must connect to (lsusb found the board on USB 005)
[18:08] <whitequark> LeoSh: should be safe to delete,
[18:08] <stodertoad> installing ssh didn't help and I have samba installed
[18:08] <Quagmire> goltoof: There are space limitations with doing it that way
[18:08] <bouncing> whitequark: I don't have any experience with glxinfo, but it seems pretty clear to me that your video isn't being accelerated.
[18:09] <Quagmire> goltoof: It stinks but there are some problems I'm stuck working with
[18:09] <bassliner> whitequark: seems like we both have the same problem
[18:09] <whitequark> bouncing: the problem that it, really, is accelerated. I can play videos with vlc or flash, and chrome scrolls perfectly
[18:09] <bassliner> whitequark: tho i just experience it under kde only
[18:09] <whitequark> bouncing: there are only problems with gtk apps
[18:09] <bassliner> whitequark: both gnome or fluxbox work flawlessly for me, but kde is, even with compositing disabled, unusably slow.
[18:09] <bouncing> whitequark: Oh that's really weird.
[18:10] <whitequark> bouncing: and only with the scrolling, e.g. moving windows is very fast
[18:10] <whitequark> also I've tried with compiz or without
[18:10] <jurgentje> I guess the core question is: how to I mount a USB port to a /dev/tty folder?
[18:10] <bassliner> whitequark: i have an nvidia 8600gts if that helps, no idea if it's using the legacy driver.
[18:10] <bouncing> whitequark: You could go to System -> Preferences -> Appearance and turn of "visual effects" to see if that helps, but that isn't really a solution.
[18:10] <whitequark> bassliner: no, it uses the mainline one
[18:10] <bouncing> whitequark: oh, nevermind
[18:10] <whitequark> bouncing: I just said that I tried with and without compiz.
[18:10] <meowsus> I'm setting up Ubuntu Server 10.10 on my laptop and have successfully configured my ethernet connection, but now i'm trying to configure my wireless. I've installed "wireless-tools" and have used "iwconfig" to determine "eth1" is my wireless device, but when i put the appropriate info into /etc/network/interfaces and restart the networking daemon, DHCPDISCOVER runs a handful of times and fails.
[18:11] <whitequark> jurgentje: all /dev/ttyUSB* devfiles are created automatically when you plug the board in
[18:11] <jurgentje> whitequark, and how do I find out on what port it is?
[18:11] <whitequark> jurgentje: try sudo cat /proc/tty/drivers
[18:11] <meowsus> What am i doing wrong? I've installed the "bcmwl-kernel-source" which is for my BCM4312 and the little wifi light showed up on my keyboard after a reboot
[18:11] <p4rk3r3oy> If u use a touch pad...it could be that...my dell didnt work well with some.....bouncy scroll
[18:11] <bouncing> meowsus: You're running Ubuntu Server on your laptop??
[18:12] <meowsus> bouncing, without any of the server packages
[18:12] <whitequark> jurgentje: wait a sec, I'll plug in a board with usb-to-serial converter
[18:12] <meowsus> I just pretty much want command line
[18:12] <blue_anna> bouncing, you were right, kdm works, its something in the chain of gdm prereqs
[18:13] <p4rk3r3oy> I have a wine program issue with the system debugger in BT4...need to term debugger...???/
[18:13] <bouncing> blue_anna: What model of keyboard do you have?
[18:13] <whitequark> jurgentje: aha, you should do "sudo cat /proc/tty/driver/usbserial", then it'll be clear for you which one belongs to your board
[18:13] <alkisg> goltoof: it seems that there's a newer kernel available in lucid-updates, due to the kernel backport process described here: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelTeam/Specs/KernelMaverickNewKernelOnLTS
[18:13] <blue_anna> bouncing, reinstalling gdm itself hasnt worked before though ..
[18:13] <blue_anna> bouncing, I've two different keyboard, it happens with both of them .. this one is a apple aluminium ANSI keyboard
[18:13] <bouncing> blue_anna: You could try apt-get install --purge gdm to make sure any configuration files are deleted too. When you do a normal uninstall, config files are kept.
[18:13] <blue_anna> bouncing, the other is a spanish keyboard
[18:13] <blue_anna> bouncing, :o
[18:14] <blue_anna> thank you
[18:14] <bouncing> err, apt-get remove --purge
[18:14] <bouncing> np
[18:14] <jurgentje> whitequark, Folder does not exist
[18:14] <p4rk3r3oy> Any help with system debugger in BT4?????
[18:15] <jurgentje> whitequark, can I pm you?
[18:15] <bassliner> hm, seems like the 8600gts isn't even supported by the nouveau driver.
[18:15] <IdleOne> p4rk3r3oy: #backtrack-linux
[18:15] <whitequark> jurgentje: sure
[18:15] <p4rk3r3oy> yes...a wine program want run while the debugger is running....disable it???
[18:16] <IdleOne> p4rk3r3oy: ask in #backtrack-linux for BT4 support
[18:17] <bodwick> hello, when I copy some url into clipboard a window with bowser selection pops up .. it's annoying - anyone know which app is responsible for this?
[18:18] <p4rk3r3oy> IdleOne  how would you get there....p4rk3r3oy=<newbie(linux)
[18:18] <IdleOne> p4rk3r3oy: /join #backtrack-linux
[18:18] <tim167_> hello, can someone help me with "xsendkeycode" ? i try "xsendkeycode 116 1;xsendkeycode 116 0" but nothing happens...
[18:18] <xangua> bodwick: an image says more than a thousand words...
[18:18] <joe85> anyone know how I can fix my ubuntu install? I've just got a blinking cursor when I try to start my system
[18:18] <p4rk3r3oy> thanks....cool
[18:18] <meowsus> Can i get some help configuring wifi access via the command line?
[18:19] <p4rk3r3oy> duh
[18:19] <blue_anna> bouncing, well this is kind of interesting, I purged it completely and then reinstalled it, switched it to be the default service again and stopped kdm and started gdm .. and the problem reappeared
[18:20] <bouncing> blue_anna: Well there you have it. It must be something about your hardware configuration, maybe your USB BUS.
[18:20] <blue_anna> bouncing, but, this was working until i upgraded to 10.10
[18:20] <bouncing> GTK is doing something funny with it
[18:21] <tim167_> where can i find a correct list of keycodes of key mapping for use with xsendkeycode and my keyboard ?
[18:22] <blue_anna> tim167_,  xev
[18:22] <bouncing> blue_anna: Well, you could file a bug report... I'm not really literate as to how gtk works, so I'm not sure what other advice I have.
[18:22] <blue_anna> bouncing, ok-- thanks
[18:22] <tim167_> blue_anna: thanks!
[18:22] <blue_anna> that was a lot of verification , I appreciate it bouncing
[18:23] <bouncing> blue_anna: no problem
[18:23] <chiz> Hello!

[18:24] <chiz> I want my GUI back
[18:24] <chiz> How to start GUI?
[18:24] <chiz> From console?
[18:24] <blue_anna> chiz sudo service start gdm
[18:24] <chiz> xfce
[18:24] <chiz> I have xfce as GUI
[18:24] <blue_anna> chiz that uses gdm unless you changed it
[18:25] <chiz> sudo service start gdm
[18:25] <blue_anna> gdm start
[18:25] <chiz> Thanks!
[18:25] <chiz> ho
[18:26] <chiz> Can I do it without exit from irc?
[18:26] <IdleOne> no
[18:26] <blue_anna> chiz sure, just do it ctl+alt+f# different from your current console
[18:26] <M1> ctrl-alt-f7 ??
[18:26] <blue_anna> like that
[18:28] <chiz> ha-ha
[18:28] <chiz> Thanks!!!
[18:28] <chiz> = ((
[18:29] <chiz> start: Job is already start

[18:29] <blue_anna> chiz if it is already running go to ctl+alt+f8 and use it :P
[18:29] <leo_rockway> hello everyone
[18:29] <leo_rockway> I wrote an init script that puts a file in /var/run/. Do the files in this directory get deleted on restart?
[18:30] <chiz> em...
[18:30] <blue_anna> leo_rockway, no
[18:30] <chiz> there is a little problem :-)
[18:30] <blue_anna> chiz might be easier for you just to restart it .. replace start with restart
[18:30] <chiz> There is smth
[18:30] <chiz> no
[18:30] <leo_rockway> blue_anna: thank you... that's unfortunate :S
[18:31] <blue_anna> leo_rockway, put it in /tmp instead
[18:31] <chiz> I can;t login to xfce
[18:31] <leo_rockway> blue_anna: yes, I think I'll do that. Thank you.
[18:31] <leo_rockway> but I thought maybe /var/run got purged on restart, so I figured I'd ask.
[18:31] <chiz> I installed ati catalyst bla-bla-bla and after restart I can't login to xfce, just to cinsole = ((
[18:31] <WatcherOfTheSkie> hello there, i compiled my own kernel and try to get it working for ubuntu 10.10. can anyone help me with the generation of an initrd image ?

[18:36] <alienmindtrick> how do i setup google voice to work in empathy?
[18:37] <blue_anna> alienmindtrick, it just does, doesnt it? what part of the set up do you need help with?
[18:37] <albino> ubottu: the second half of the "Does anyone ..." usually contains the real requestion
[18:38] <blue_anna> alienmindtrick, you mean google chat? or you can connect to the network, but the audio doesnt work?
[18:38] <alienmindtrick> @blue_anna:  is there a guide for it?  i couldn't find one.  if there is, i can probably do it.  i'm using ubuntu 10.10
[18:39] <blue_anna> alienmindtrick, cripes , its been a while .. but I can tell you the settings if you want to walk through it with me .. I'm on google chat now
[18:39] <alienmindtrick> @blue_anna:  i'm not sure if i should be setting up google voice or google chat to serve as my voip in empathy
[18:39] <alienmindtrick> @blue_anna:  that would be most helpful!
[18:39] <dsecjohn> mmm ubuntu
[18:39] <blue_anna> alienmindtrick, as far as I know, google voice is the audio part of google chat .. but I get the feeling to hear you talk about it, that I'm wrong
[18:40] <alienmindtrick> @blue_anna:  no, i think you're probably right.
[18:40] <geremy_> stupid question- I'm looking at the total memory usage reported by free and the graphical system monitor and comparing that the what I get by adding everything reported by ps aux and getting wildly divergent results, does anybody know what specifically accounts for this?
[18:41] <p4rk3r3oy> thanks....that was easy...
[18:41] <alienmindtrick> @blue_anna:  when i set up google voice to provide clickable phone #s for autodial, i did that through google chat.  you're probably point on.
[18:41] <blue_anna> alienmindtrick, ok my bad .. I was confused, and I don't use that
[18:41] <Cyber_Beast> Can anyone give the easiest way to install "Handbrake" for ubuntu 10.10?
[18:42] <alienmindtrick> @blue_anna:  lulz.  there's probably a reason for that, yeah?
[18:42] <blakkheim> Cyber_Beast: handbrake.fr, download the deb, install with dpkg
[18:42] <blue_anna> alienmindtrick, god does not play dice with the universe
[18:43] <blue_anna> alienmindtrick, http://www.ubuntugeek.com/gtalx-google-voice-chat-has-arrived-in-ubuntu-9-10-karmic.html looks promising
[18:43] <Cyber_Beast> blakkheim: Eventually I was led to this page... https://edge.launchpad.net/~stebbins/+archive/handbrake-snapshots
[18:43] <blue_anna> in the comments
[18:44] <alienmindtrick> @blue_anna:  thanks.  i'll peruse that and see what i can destroy ;)
[18:44] <Cyber_Beast> blakkheim: Eventually I was led to this page... https://edge.launchpad.net/~stebbins/+archive/handbrake-snapshots and when I update my repo, it gives me error of PUBLIC KEY
[18:45] <linus> ragazzi per chiedere qualche consiglio tecnico?
[18:45] <blakkheim> Cyber_Beast: that's entirely different than what i just told you to do
[18:45] <tensorpudding> !it | linus
[18:45] <linus> sorry
[18:46] <blue_anna> linus, tranquillo
[18:46] <Cyber_Beast> blakkheim: I am not able to find download link to download .deb file on the same site.
[18:46] <blakkheim> Cyber_Beast: uh.. http://handbrake.fr/downloads.php
[18:47] <blakkheim> Cyber_Beast: it takes you to the launchpad site and the debs are there
[18:47] <c4pt> hello i was wondering if someone could give me a suggestion i am have two video cards in my system and i am trying to run nvidia-settings from the nvidia binary i can load the nvidia module but when i try to use nvidia-settings as root i get this error http://www.pastie.org/1287746
[18:48] <blakkheim> Cyber_Beast: https://edge.launchpad.net/~stebbins/+archive/handbrake-snapshots/+files/handbrake-cli_svn3667ppa1%7Emaverick1_i386.deb
[18:48] <blue_anna> c4pt, try sudo nvidia-settings
[18:48] <blue_anna> ooo you are root
[18:48] <blakkheim> Cyber_Beast: or if you have x86_64, https://edge.launchpad.net/~stebbins/+archive/handbrake-snapshots/+files/handbrake-cli_svn3667ppa1%7Emaverick1_amd64.deb
[18:49] <c4pt> blue_anna, i did
[18:49] <hermit> hi folks
[18:49] <c4pt> blue_anna, im running it directly as root
[18:49] <horseatingweeds> Is there a gnome setting that widens the file name column in nautilus, so you can see longer file names?
[18:49] <c4pt> blue_anna, sorry yes i am root
[18:49] <Guest99914> Hi all
[18:50] <nando> Hello?
[18:50] <xangua1> Cyber_Beast: blakkheim or simply add the ppa...
[18:50] <Guest91647> I was burning a CD with Brasero and something went wrong, the light keeps flashing. I took out the CD (opened the drive with a paperclip), but now it's still flashing. Seems like something keeps trying to read/write the drive.Does anyone know if there is a way to softreset my dvd-rom drive without rebooting the computer?
[18:50] <blakkheim> xangua1: if you will scroll up you'll see he has already done so, but is having problems getting the public key
[18:50] <Cyber_Beast> xangual: Can you tell me how to add ppa.
[18:51] <blue_anna> Guest91647, do you know if it is a sata dvd drive?
[18:51] <hermit____> yes its sata
[18:51] <xangua1> blakkheim Cyber_Beast sudo add-apt-repository ppa:stebbins/handbrake-snapshots , does all the work
[18:51] <nando> can anyone help me with an apache problem? It doesn't want to load images or stylesheets. Tried the stuff they have online with no success.
[18:51] <Cyber_Beast> xangual: I already did that, that gives me an error of PUBLIC_KEY
[18:51] <xangua1> blakkheim Cyber_Beast if eveno with add-apt-repository the key is not added that means the keyserver is down, try later
[18:52] <xangua1> even*
[18:52] <chengjiangtao> 看电影喽，天快亮了
[18:52] <blue_anna> hermit____, you should be able to just unplug the sata cable and plug it back in .. if you dno't eletricute yourself everything should sync up just fine .. note: you are taking your life in your own hands :D but it is safe from the software side of things
[18:52] <Cyber_Beast> blakkheim & xangual:  Thanks for the info. Appreciated.. :)
[18:52] <c4pt> blue_anna, or a suggestion to run twinview with dual monitors in xorg.conf with 3840 X 1080 combined resoloution
[18:52] <hermit____> blue_anna: thanks, i was just wondering if it could be done without looking for a screwdriver!
[18:53] <c4pt> blue_anna, cant seem to figure it out i usually use nvidia-settings and its just done
[18:53] <c4pt> blue_anna, guess its the laziness of a gui
[18:53] <anythingnormal> ni hao ma chenjingtao ^^ ni shi zhong guo ren ma?
[18:53] <chengjiangtao> 是的，
[18:53] <blue_anna> c4pt, you have two cards or jsut two monitors to one card?
[18:53] <blakkheim> !cn
[18:54] <chengjiangtao> yes
[18:54] <anythingnormal> yes i think so
[18:54] <c4pt> blue_anna, well i have two cards and two monitors but at the moment i just want to use one card with both monitors
[18:54] <chengjiangtao> 我的英语很差
[18:54] <nando> can anyone help me with an apache problem? It doesn't want to load images or stylesheets. Tried the stuff they have online with no success.
[18:54] <c4pt> blue_anna, i usually just enable twinview and combine 1920x1080 + 1920x1080 (for 3840x1080)
[18:54] <adventureinn> i selected "English (USA)" when logging in and "English (USA)" is at the top of my language prefs, however when I log in everything is in Spanish. What could be causing that?
[18:54] <chengjiangtao> my english bad
[18:55] <blakkheim> chengjiangtao: /join #ubuntu-cn
[18:55] <hermit____> nando: do you have a .htaccess file with compression on for certain files?
[18:55] <nando> no
[18:55] <hermit____> nando: it does load html and php files?
[18:55] <nando> been a while since i used irc to. how do you talk to a specific person again?
[18:55] <chengjiangtao> thank you
[18:56] <blue_anna> c4pt, I was thinking it might be trying to talk to the wrong card .. but I'm not sure how to get around that .. you can find the proper pci address with lspci
[18:56] <nando> yes html and php is fine
[18:56] <c4pt> blue_anna, yeah ive tried that
[18:56] <hermit____> nando: i'm not sure either, this must be like the second time in 4 years for me
[18:56] <c4pt> blue_anna, one is 8:0:0 the other is 7:0:0
[18:56] <c4pt> blue_anna, if i totally remove the one i am not using and reload X i still cant run nvidia-settings
[18:57] <c4pt> blue_anna, and all instances that point to the other card also (card0, card1 etc)
[18:57] <blue_anna> c4pt, oo, that sounds bad
[18:57] <nando> people were saying that they had the same problem as i did except that if they typed in the path to the image for them it would just come up with the path. for me it comes up with the image. but still doesnt work on the website
[18:57] <c4pt> well i guess i am going to uninstall the nvidia binary and try to use apt-get for nvidia
[18:57] <home-alone> hi ! what ubuntu games have online multiplayer . no matter what genre they are ...
[18:57] <c4pt> bbl
[18:58] <hermit____> nando: so you're saying the images load just fine if you type the path by hand in your browser?
[18:58] <nando> yep
[18:58] <blue_anna> c4pt, do the other commands work? nvidia-settings -q screens for isntance?
[18:58] <chengjiangtao> ni shi zhong guo ren?

[18:59] <hermit____> nando: i'll have a look, first i have to disconnect my dvd-drive, it's going crazy
[18:59] <chengjiangtao> ni zhong wen hen hao

[19:02] <Robinux> heya guys i wanna ask the bot about sshd
[19:02] <hermit____> set it to http://67.174.248.137/
[19:02] <nando> hermit____: what?
[19:03] <Robinux> need my friend (on windows) to upload a file to me a file through ssh
[19:03] <p4rk3r3oy> wow...sounds like a good one....i just want to term the debugger........
[19:03] <realcooluser> Anyone have any experience on joining a Linux box to a Server03 domain?  I've tried a few things but I just haven't been able to quite get it right yet.
[19:03] <Buttons840> home-alone: i suggest you look at http://www.newerth.com/?id=downloads   it's a commercial game called savage which i was able to run in ubuntu; just donwload there linux binaries --  oh, and the game is legally free now, they've released the game for free (it's about 8 years old)
[19:03] <hermit____> nando: in your wordpress admin page, go to settings>general
[19:04] <hermit____> nando: third field
[19:04] <jurgster> so solved the crashing but can not get drivers active for "82852/82855 GM/GME/PM/GMV Processor to I/O Controller" can anyone say what the drivers are to get full benifits of this grafx
[19:04] <Buttons840> jurgster: i was able to open it by specifying wester character encoding; i'm supprised it wasn't detected automatically though
[19:04] <nando> hermit____: oh okay
[19:04] <hermit____> nando: it's set to http://192.168.1.3/ instead of http://67.174.248.137/
[19:04] <nando> so thats my internal ip... it should be my external huh?
[19:05] <hermit____> it doesn't matter if it's the same server
[19:05] <hermit____> at least not for you
[19:05] <drizz|e> anyone know how to set my ip address to be linked to a domain name. so i can call my box using name not number?
[19:05] <xubuntu_froob> erm
[19:05] <xubuntu_froob> oaky
[19:05] <xubuntu_froob> well
[19:05] <xubuntu_froob> this is annoying
[19:05] <FloodBot4> xubuntu_froob: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[19:05] <jurgster> it happens example work with german pc transfer to ubuntu English and it starts worrying
[19:05] <hermit____> drizzle: try dyndns or a service like that
[19:05] <xubuntu_froob> but i cant kill x.....on xubuntu -_-
[19:06] <antivirtel> hello all, I wonder what way can I use an en-US extension to my hu-HU openoffice? (Professional Template Pack : http://extensions.services.openoffice.org/en/project/TemplatePack_II )
[19:06] <xubuntu_froob> anyone know what process to kill? gdm nor xdm work and the forums seem to be useless for me
[19:06] <antivirtel> xubuntu_froob killall <proc name> or kill pid
[19:06] <blue_anna> xubuntu_froob, what are you doing?
[19:06] <nando> hermit____: that did the trick! Thanks alot man. just curious. how did you diagnose that so quick?
[19:06] <hermit____> xubuntu_froob: service is called Xorg
[19:06] <drizz|e> hermit____ i have made an account at nic.cz.cc but i don't know where to set it to point me
[19:07] <hermit____> drizzle: you have a dynamic or a static address?
[19:07] <Robinux> !cmds
[19:07] <drizz|e> hermit____: static
[19:07] <Pici> !brain | Robinux
[19:07] <xubuntu_froob> im installing the nvidia drivers
[19:08] <xubuntu_froob> and i know its Xorg...but killall Xorg has always done nothing for me lol
[19:08] <hermit____> drizzle: then you must be able to put in your ip in there somewhere... easy as that, i don't know about nic.cz.cc but i do know dyndns works
[19:08] <yotam> Hi guys, I'm trying to install race for the galaxy on my machine. I have downloaded the files from here http://www.keldon.net/rftg/ and got the following error
[19:08] <yotam> gui.c:21: fatal error: gtk/gtk.h: No such file or directory
[19:08] <hermit____> xubuntu_froob: you need the pid
[19:08] <allowoverride> how can i move a window on the desktop using the keyboard?
[19:08] <act_as_coder> Any alternatives to streamtuner for radio listening with streamripper functionality
[19:08] <act_as_coder> ?
[19:08] <nando> well I gotta go. Thanks alot hermit____
[19:08] <xubuntu_froob> okay well lemme check it
[19:08] <hermit____> nando: np, good luck with it
[19:08] <yotam> What do I need to install (apart from libgtk2.0-dev which is installed)?
[19:08] <drizz|e> hermit____: ok so i put my ip on its dns server input and tried to call it, it gives me error
[19:08] <c4pt> blue_anna, i removed the nvidia binary and it still didnt work so finally hiding it from the system (the other card ) completely i could once again run nvidia-settings (since the cards are different)
[19:09] <allowoverride> for some reason my clock, when i left click it, the calendar is not attached anymore to the clock on the systray. suggestions to have it reattach? thanks
[19:09] <xubuntu_froob> no xorg service
[19:09] <kv102t> afternoon, I want to create ISO files in ubuntu 10.4 -- what software (GUI plz)
[19:09] <Jygga> hi, could somebody with an up to date 10.10 please give me the file that  find / -fprintf filestructure '%h%p %u:%g \n' creates?
[19:10] <xubuntu_froob> but i did find the gdm process thats probably keeping my xserver alive
[19:10] <jurgster> bye
[19:10] <r3in> hey,
[19:10] <r3in> sorry to bother you guys
[19:10] <allowoverride> and each time i click it, it shows up in a diff spot, all of which not attached like it was before..
[19:10] <hermit____> xubuntu_froob: then try kill -9 pid
[19:10] <adrian15> kv102t: cdburner, k3b
[19:10] <allowoverride> How can i reattach the calendar to the clock on the systray?
[19:11] <Jygga> i need it to restore default user ownership after chown -R user:group .* -.-
[19:11] <adrian15> allowoverride: Have you tried dragging and dropping to the clock it self ?
[19:11] <hermit____> drizzle: are you sure your router is set right for connections from outside?
[19:11] <gdoteof> is there anyway to get thunderbird 3 from the repositories?
[19:11] <Jygga>  find / -fprintf filestructure '%h%p %u:%g\n'
[19:11] <hermit____> gdoteof: look for ubuntuzilla ppa
[19:11] <kv102t> adrian15: k3b lets me create ISO burn images?
[19:11] <r3in> I seem to be having a problem with using multiple wlan adapters in ubuntu 8.10. I can use one adapter, with no problem (doesnt matter which) and configure the second, but cannot connect with it
[19:11] <Jygga> would be eternally thankfull 8/
[19:11] <allowoverride> i can not activate the calendar, no, i tried
[19:11] <r3in> I have tried on three Pcs in different order
[19:11] <fergal32> hi everybody
[19:11] <r3in> and cant figure it out on any
[19:12] <r3in> but on 10, they work fine
[19:12] <adrian15> kv102t: Yes, any linux burner program has an option to select an iso file instead of an actual dvd or cdrom device when burning
[19:12] <r3in> any suggestions/help wouldbe greatly appreciated
[19:12] <allowoverride> the only way to activate it is when i left click the clock the first time, and each time it moves to a diff spot on the desktop. very odd
[19:12] <xangua1> allowoverride: right clic>add>clock
[19:12] <fergal32> any luck with wireless intel 5100agn to work in N-Mode?
[19:12] <Jygga> r3in upgrade?
[19:12] <allowoverride> i tried to read the clock just now, the same result
[19:12] <xubuntu_froob> interesting
[19:12] <adrian15> Jygga: I think you cannot do that unless you had a backup somewhere
[19:13] <xubuntu_froob> i killed the gdm-binary...and im still up and running
[19:13] <xubuntu_froob> kewl
[19:13] <xangua1> !panels | allowoverride
[19:13] <yotam> How long should I wait before reposting?
[19:13] <r3in> Jygga: not really an option, am actually using BT (on a patched ubuntu 8.10 kernel)
[19:13] <hermit____> xubuntu_froob: is it really killed? did you run kill with sudo?
[19:13] <allowoverride> xangua1: are you saying that will reset all my shortcut/icons as well?
[19:13] <r3in> belive me, If I thought that was a solution, I would of already :P
[19:13] <xubuntu_froob> yup
[19:13] <adrian15> allowoverride: If clock was an standalone application you could delete its .folder but I suppose clock might be integrated into gnome... maybe tweaking gnome registry but i do not know how to do that
[19:14] <allowoverride> i was just going to ask, where is that info stored
[19:14] <allowoverride> in a ./ file?
[19:14] <drizz|e> hermit____: i tried canyouseeme.org and passed port 80
[19:14] <allowoverride> opps. ./. file
[19:14] <gdoteof> hermit____: W: Failed to fetch http://downloads.sourceforge.net/project/ubuntuzilla/mozilla/apt/dists/all/Release  Unable to find expected entry  main/binary-amd64/Packages in Meta-index file (malformed Release file?)
[19:14] <adrian15> r3in: So you want to use two wlan adapters at the same time ?
[19:15] <allowoverride> xangua1: so lets say i run that command you said, and it still does it, then where would i fix it?
[19:15] <hermit____> gdoteof: strange, but you can download the .deb packages manually from there
[19:15] <r3in> adrian15: correct
[19:15] <adrian15> r3in: And network-manager switchs off one adapter when connecting to the other one ? Or how?
[19:15] <allowoverride> i would assume /apps/panel
[19:15] <gdoteof> hermit____: will they be maintained by aptitude?
[19:15] <allowoverride> ill have a look there first
[19:16] <r3in> only use console,
[19:16] <hermit____> gdoteof: no
[19:16] <fergal32> does anybody got an intel wireless 5100AGN got working in n-mode?
[19:16] <r3in> in 10, it works fine though
[19:16] <r3in> (no network manager) iw, iwconfig, and dhclient3
[19:16] <hermit____> gdoteof: but you can add the ppa later, when this problem is fixed. Or try it again and see if it was your connection
[19:17] <allowoverride> under the gnome2 panel, where is the clock stored?
[19:17] <allowoverride> under .gconf i think
[19:17] <allowoverride> brb
[19:17] <adrian15> r3in: You do not use graphical interface in any way ?
[19:17] <Jygga> adrian15 i had a backup but it was taken before the last upgrade
[19:18] <hermit____> drizzle: i can't say what the problem is, i would try with another service
[19:18] <r3in> adrian15: on that box, and on the others (using a livecd for test) no
[19:18] <hdon> what's the name of that hashing algorithm that generates somewhat pronounceable mnemonics?
[19:19] <adrian15> r3in: You might have installed an alternate ubuntu instead of a server edition one. I recommend you to uninstall network-manager package to avoid any misterious problem
[19:19] <hermit____> have to go, bye
[19:19] <r3in> adrian15: sorry, thought stated before, am using BT with a patched 8.10 kernel
[19:19] <adrian15> Jygga: If you could reinstall your system with the same packages would be ok? I mean do you have many users and care about their permissions or not ? Or how?
[19:20] <Pici> r3in: We do not support Backtrack here.  Please use their support channel at #backtrack-linux
[19:20] <Jygga> adrian15 reinstalling is of course an option but i wanted to exhaust all options before i do that, i am currently manually checking if stuff works and if not fixing the ownership for those files in question but it takes AGES
[19:21] <r3in> Pici: did / was / thanks anyways
[19:21] <yotam> Hi guys, I'm trying to install race for the galaxy on my machine. I have downloaded the files from here http://www.keldon.net/rftg/ and got the following error
[19:21] <yotam> gui.c:21: fatal error: gtk/gtk.h: No such file or directory
[19:21] <yotam> What do I need to install (apart from libgtk2.0-dev which is installed)?
[19:21] <FloodBot4> yotam: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[19:21] <adrian15> Jygga: Yeah, I know. If you had a backup you could try to re-create permissions from it to the live system. I know it can be done. Otherwise there is not a magic command that restores default permissions
[19:22] <allowoverride> interesting, when i move the panel 0 to the top, the calendar is attached properly. i usually move it to the bottom with the properties.
[19:22] <adrian15> yotam: Check INSTALL file in the tar.gz you have download for requirements
[19:22] <Jygga> adrian15 well i have the basic stuff working by restoring from backup using it as reference in a script and i know theres no magic command but i told you what i could need already ^^
[19:22] <Jygga>  find / -fprintf filestructure '%h%p %u:%g \n'
[19:22] <r3in> in a somewhat related issue
[19:23] <adrian15> allowoverride: The calendar appears below bottom so that you cannot see it ;) That's maybe your problem.
[19:23] <r3in> unity causes freeze on ubuntu ten using ati drivers
[19:23] <adrian15> Jygga: So your question is then?
[19:23] <yotam> adrian15, I tried. Here it is: http://pastebin.com/VyRr3Tu6
[19:23] <allowoverride> adrian15: i usually move the panel to the bottom and it sticks to the top right above the clock, as it should and has for years in gnome
[19:24] <Jygga> no question, just a plea to run that command on your up to date 10.10 and give me the resulting file
[19:24] <adrian15> allowoverride: I know, I know
[19:24] <allowoverride> but when i put it at the bottom after a clean install and moving it to the bottom where i like it, it then goes in the middle, the top, so forth, all over each time
[19:24] <allowoverride> its a bug
[19:25] <allowoverride> the reason i like it all the way at the bottom is so i can set clock to view times all over the world, and it shows up on desktop nice and neat.
[19:25] <adrian15> yotam: I do not find anything on that INSTALL. Maybe the README file points a REQUISITES file or equivalent?
[19:26] <allowoverride> anyone here know xml fairly well? these conf files for panel are written in xml. maybe there is a setting i can tweek
[19:26] <adrian15> Jygga: Ah, ok, I am sorry I am not on ubuntu right now.
[19:26] <MagicJ> when I do an apt-get upgrade on ONE of my lucid machines I get the message that some packages have been help back,  output is at: http://paste.ubuntu.com/529534/
[19:27] <tiox> I figured out something. :P
[19:27] <Pici> MagicJ: Use apt-get dist-upgrade
[19:27] <allowoverride> what does the entry in an xml.conf file for gnome panel "panel_right_stick" do?
[19:27] <plwert> Any recommendations for software that could help me manage jobs that I dispatch to machines through ssh? Right now I have a script that greedily sends tasks to the first available machine and tells me when it completed, but it's a bit rough around the edges (no way to add jobs once started, must kill manually, etc.) and someone has probably solved a similar problem before.
[19:27] <home-alone> when i minimize a windows it just disapears what to do...????
[19:27] <MagicJ> pici - will do - brb - but why
[19:27] <Pici> !dist-upgrade | MagicJ
[19:27] <xangua1> !panels | home-alone
[19:28] <tiox> If anyone here doesn't like the 10.10 Ambiance/Radiance themes, just get the Ambiance_R and Radiance_R themes from Gnome-look and after extracint the theme (Desktop, for example), go into terminal and type in sudo mv ~/Desktop/Ambiance_R /usr/share/themes
[19:28] <home-alone> ok thanks it is done ...
[19:28] <adrian15> home-alone: Do you have a "windows selector" in your gnome panel ?
[19:29] <allowoverride> xangua1: i asked you, if that command doesnt work then what is the next step? do you know?
[19:29] <tiox> extracting*
[19:29] <home-alone> no . it does not has windows selector
[19:29] <MagicJ> ubottu = ty for th explanation, what is weird is that I supposendly have six machines that are the same and this is the only one where tjs is the issue
[19:30] <tiox> After that, simply go into appearance and change themes. They both use the 10.04 theme styles and for me, it's a pleasant change of pace.
[19:30] <MagicJ> Pici - that did seem to do it - ty - I still don't understand how that ONE machine got out of step
[19:30] <Pici> MagicJ: That is a bit weird.
[19:30] <adrian15> home-alone: I am sorry. I do not know the exact name, you know you can click on a window name and the window gets restored or minimized. If you do not have this then windows will of course disappear. You can always try ALT+TAB to see windows.
[19:31] <tiox> And if you still want the button controls on the left, go into gconf-editor and navigate to apps/metacity/general and change button_layout to suit, of course.

[19:31] <allowoverride> adrian15: i see the calendar, but its not in the right spot
[19:31] <luluhouse7> I deleted two partitons (on purpose) and re-installed ubuntu in their place. I have a dual boot and widows was hibernated while  I did this. After I was done I logged back into Windows and when I looked at My Computer it still has the partitions marked. What weirder is that when I play the music off of it , it works fine. Ubuntu should currently be where the partitions are, how is it possible that I deleted and overwrote it and i
[19:32] <allowoverride> is there a hotkey i can use to move a window that i can not mouse to activate?
[19:32] <luluhouse7> alt
[19:32] <chiz> how to say smth direct to someone?
[19:32] <duckx0r> how do I use the alert command so that it doesn't show the command in the OSD?
[19:32] <ActionParsnip> allowoverride: hold alt and you can drag from any point in the app
[19:32] <yotam> adrian15,  I checked that ass well: http://pastebin.com/wPCN6nKS. I can't find any other suspect file
[19:32] <home-alone> alt+tab works but i want to see minimize windows on the panel
[19:33] <ActionParsnip> luluhouse7: does ubuntu boot ok?
[19:33] <chiz> duckx0r, are this message bold for you?
[19:33] <duckx0r> chiz, the command is bold and the message is regular
[19:33] <luluhouse7> actionparsnip: yes i was just in it
[19:33] <allowoverride> xangua1: do i add a ? at the end of that command? is there a space after gnome-panel   ?
[19:33] <chiz> duckx0r, what command?
[19:33] <xangua1> ¿¿¿???
[19:34] <ActionParsnip> home-alone: you can use the gnome shortcut app to define a key to maximize the active window
[19:34] <ActionParsnip> luluhouse7: truly freaky
[19:34] <allowoverride> !terminal: ? gconftool --recursive-unset /apps/panel && killall gnome-panel ?  do i include a ? at the end of that command
[19:34] <f0g> Ever since upgrading to 10.10, I've been getting a lot of lag on this system.  Load is fairly low, but windowing lags, sound skips, etc.
[19:34] <allowoverride> or is that a deliminator?
[19:35] <Rickardo1> Which method is best to share a folder between 2 ubuntu servers on same lan?
[19:35] <evolu> wow I've never even been in a chan with over 50 people in, hey
[19:35] <allowoverride>    !terminal: ? gconftool --recursive-unset /apps/panel && killall gnome-panel ?
[19:35] <ActionParsnip> luluhouse7: what file system does ubuntu report it as? sudo parted -l ,will show you
[19:35] <allowoverride> where does that command start, after the first question mark
[19:35] <Kaizen> if i moved my ubuntu partition to a new computer would it upgrade itself to new processor etc. or crash and burn?
[19:35] <tiox> f0g: Seek the Ubuntu forums for troubleshooting and fix-ups. But then again, you jumped from an LTS stable to a current version. :P
[19:35] <home-alone> well i want a permanent solution not alt+tab all the time
[19:35] <tensorpudding> Kaizen: "upgrade itself"?
[19:35] <luluhouse7> actionparsnip: ubuntu doesn
[19:35] <f0g> tiox: Is there a smooth downgrade path besides flatten & reinstall?
[19:35] <adrian15> luluhouse7: Do not expect Windows being hibernated and reawaken to take into account changes that happened when it was hibernating.
[19:35] <chiz> Please, tell me how to remove programm from console/terminal. I can't start xfce = ((
[19:35] <ActionParsnip> Rickardo1: there is no best. Samba is probably easiest. Depends on your needs
[19:35] <allowoverride> xangua1:   gconftool-recursive-unset /apps/panel && killall ....
[19:35] <duckx0r> chiz, for example, if I execute `alert "hello world"`, the OSD appears with the text 'alert "hello world" \n hello world' (where \n is a line break)
[19:36] <tensorpudding> Kaizen: it will work if the architectures match up
[19:36] <Rickardo1> ActionParsnip: Is it the fastest?
[19:36] <Kaizen> tensorpudding reconfigure itself for the new cpu and memory etc.
[19:36] <chiz> duckx0r: no is it bold?
[19:36] <luluhouse7> actionparsnip: ubuntu doesn't see it
[19:36] <allowoverride> xangua1:  is this the right command?   >>>>>>   gconftool --recursive-unset /apps/panel && killall gnome-panel
[19:36] <ActionParsnip> Kaizen: it'll boot fine. You may want to remove any proprietary drivers
[19:36] <tiox> I might need confirmation on this one... could f0g be able to use the dist-upgrade command with a 10.04 disk to downgrade?
[19:36] <tensorpudding> Kaizen: ubuntu boots from an initrd, which should contain drivers for about everything
[19:36] <duckx0r> chiz, the first line is bold and the second line is not bold
[19:36] <adrian15> yotam: sudo apt-get install apt-file ; sudo apt-file update ; apt-file search STRING ; # You should replace STRING with the file that it is not being found. It would advise you which package to install
[19:36] <trism> duckx0r: the alert alias is for running commands and alerts when they are done, if you just want to send a notification, use notify-send
[19:36] <luluhouse7> actionparsnip: then how are all the files still working?
[19:36] <allowoverride> i think that ubbotu needs a little tweeking lol to display a more clear cmd
[19:37] <ActionParsnip> Rickardo1: ftp will be fatest as its very simple but its least secure. Over lan its fine over www its poor
[19:37] <duckx0r> trism, yeah, that's what i'm looking for. thanks
[19:37] <yotam> adrian15,  thanks, I'll try
[19:37] <tensorpudding> Kaizen: but for proprietary drivers and stuff, it won't work out of the box
[19:37] <ActionParsnip> luluhouse7: I thought you said you put ubuntu on the partition with the music on...
[19:37] <chiz> Plz, help me to remove programm
[19:37] <Xplat_> can anyone look at this link? I need insight on the program or the scripts that make up the program it is referring to: http://joenotcharles.livejournal.com/82623.html (I think I may have compiled it wrong)
[19:38] <ActionParsnip> chiz: use software-center
[19:38] <allowoverride> nope, that cmd didnt work, and i just lost of my friggen shortcuts,, thanks... :|

[19:39] <tiox> :P
[19:39] <ActionParsnip> agross_: jeeves is the man
[19:39] <tensorpudding> just don't tell them to bing it
[19:39]  * tiox has super Google-fu skills
[19:39] <sampleee> http://paste.ubuntuusers.de/399254/
[19:39] <agross_> all the first links in google searches end up rickrolling me
[19:40] <agross_> =D
[19:40] <f0g> tiox: Any thoughts?
[19:40] <chiz> duckx0r: how it works?
[19:40] <brontoeee> how would i enable remote desktop access on a remote machine via ssh cli?
[19:40] <chiz> duckx0r: how to print manual about software-center?
[19:40] <tiox> Not really. I truged through with configuring the upgrade in the hopes there were additional drivers for my laptop.
[19:40] <karthick87> How to watch mounted DVD's with vlc in 10.10?
[19:41] <adrian15> brontoeee: What do you mean?
[19:41] <f0g> Alternately, we could figure out why it's being slow. :D
[19:41] <allowoverride> brontoeee: rdesktop hostname
[19:41] <luluhouse7> Actionparsnip: windows shows 3 partitions: Drive C, HD3 and HD4 which were NTFS (it can't see non NTFS aka Ubuntu), Ubuntu shows 2: Drive C (under a different name) and itself
[19:41] <agross_> bronoeee: are you wanting to forward X windows?
[19:41] <allowoverride> granted you have rdesktop install on your linux client
[19:41] <tiox> Here's somethng, if you wanna downgrade, else, explain in great detail what is being slow; Someone might help you out. https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DowngradeHowto
[19:41] <brontoeee> allowoverride, how do i enable it on the server, it refuses me currently
[19:41] <adrian15> karthick87: Why don't you open the iso directly with vlc ?
[19:41] <brontoeee> ?
[19:41] <chiz> duckx0r: it says root: could not initiate dbus
[19:41] <allowoverride> oh.. on the windoze server/desktop?
[19:42] <brontoeee> allowoverride, no, ubuntu to ubuntu
[19:42] <agross_> that requires the remote user permissions to be enabled
[19:42] <f0g> It's overall graphics/audio slowness... but it might be related to the pulseaudio error I keep seeing in the logs.
[19:42] <allowoverride> right click my computer properties
[19:42] <allowoverride> oh.....
[19:42] <adrian15> brontoeee: Please define "remote server"... what's that vnc, rdp, on Linux, on Windows ?
[19:42] <karthick87> adrian15,It seems like VLC cannot open/play mounted DVD images (video) /in Ubuntu 10.10
[19:42] <ActionParsnip> brontoeee: the default for openssh-server is to forward X. If you connect with the -X switch you can run gui apps and they will attach to the local screen but be running on the server
[19:42] <allowoverride> forward -X with ssh
[19:42] <f0g> pulseaudio[1760]: ratelimit.c: 10 events suppressed
[19:42] <sampleee> hello! need help with crashing X
[19:42] <agross_> or -Y
[19:42] <sampleee> please help
[19:42] <allowoverride> allow X forwarding in ssh/sshd_config
[19:42] <ActionParsnip> sampleee: remove the nvidia driver then reboot and reinstall it
[19:42] <sampleee> ^^
[19:42] <f0g> I see 9, 8, 10, 7, 8... random numbers of suppressed events.
[19:43] <brontoeee> allowoverride, ok, let me try
[19:43] <milton> anyone here use imageMagick?
[19:43] <allowoverride> make sure your firewall has 6000 something port open, i dont know by memory,
[19:43] <f0g> But, for example, I can Control-C a tail -f of a log file, and it might take 20 seconds to respond, even though the system is totally unloaded.
[19:43] <ActionParsnip> karthick87: vlc can open iso files without them mounted
[19:43] <allowoverride> i believe you also need to work with adding xhost and exporting that display
[19:43] <adrian15> karthick87: But why do you want to play a mounted image, instead of an iso directly ?!
[19:43] <duckx0r> chiz, what are you trying to do?
[19:44] <chiz> duckx0r: :-)
[19:44] <techmik67> is there an easy wiki, or does anyone have a couple of minutes to help a COMPLETE linux nub finish my dual boot setup?
[19:44] <tiox> The only bad thing from downgrading like that is, you'll have a mess of files to deal with.
[19:44] <chiz> duckx0r: uninstall ati drivers
[19:44] <allowoverride> you can test it if you can x-window back say xclock or xeyes locally to your client desktop
[19:44] <ActionParsnip> milton: a little
[19:44] <tiox> So in the end it might be easier to just run over your current installation with the steamroller that is format and reinstall.
[19:44] <karthick87> adrian15, if it can play iso files directly then no issues :)
[19:44] <allowoverride> brontoeee:  its pretty tricky, lots of little steps
[19:44] <ActionParsnip> allowoverride: its default in openssh-server
[19:44] <allowoverride> ActionParsnip: ?
[19:44]  * tiox knocks on f0g's head, "You there?"
[19:44] <milton> I've been lookin for documentation
[19:44] <brontoeee> allowoverride, no, i need vlc type of connection, rdp i guess? so how to enable rdp on the server, if my current access is command line only (via ssh)
[19:45] <allowoverride> the client needs to be running openssh-server
[19:45] <duckx0r> chiz, hold on, i'll find something for you
[19:45] <ActionParsnip> allowoverride: forwarded x is default in openssh-server
[19:45] <milton> can't find much
[19:45] <Pici> milton: Their website has quite comprehensive documentation.
[19:45] <adrian15> karthick87: It should. If you cannot open them from open dialog just issue: vlc /path/to/file.iso in a console
[19:45] <chiz> duckx0r: thanks!
[19:45] <luluhouse7> Actionparsnip: windows shows 3 partitions: Drive C, HD3 and HD4 which were NTFS (it can't see non NTFS aka Ubuntu), Ubuntu shows 2: Drive C (under a different name) and itself
[19:45] <allowoverride> ActionParsnip: ic
[19:45] <ActionParsnip> brontoeee: what activities will you do once connected?
[19:45] <milton> Pici: yea your right
[19:45] <allowoverride> so by applying the switch -X it should automagically window an xhost back to client ?
[19:45] <tom967> hi
[19:45] <Pici> milton: http://www.imagemagick.org/Usage/
[19:45] <allowoverride> that never works lol
[19:46] <duckx0r> chiz, type this command in a terminal: sudo apt-get remove --purge fglrx-kernel-source xorg-driver-fglrx fglrx-modaliases libamdxvba1
[19:46] <milton> guess i was just hoping for a php.net
[19:46] <ActionParsnip> allowoverride: yes: ssh -X user@server
[19:46] <karthick87> adrian15, Thank you :)
[19:46] <mrstocks> the sounds speakers and headphone running at the same time is a default problem?
[19:46] <allowoverride> ActionParsnip:  you need to modify config files on both sides, not to mention firewalls
[19:46] <duckx0r> chiz, then reboot after it
[19:47] <allowoverride> brontoeee: is your server an ubuntu server? i think you mentioned that b4
[19:47] <allowoverride> or another desktop
[19:47] <f0g> tiox: Yeah, sorry. Got all laggy
[19:47] <milton> Pici: thanks for the link
[19:47] <ActionParsnip> allowoverride: the x forwarding is default so youonly need an x server tostick the apps to. Desktop linux distros will do this by default, windows will need xming installed an running
[19:47] <f0g> Best case is that I can somehow fix it as it is right now
[19:47] <allowoverride> i do not advise running a gui on the ubuntu server or any server for that matter
[19:47] <brontoeee> allowoverride, actually ubuntu desktop turned into server, but it has gnome running
[19:48] <tiox> Here's another downgrade guide for 10.04: http://www.khattam.info/howto-downgrading-from-ubuntu-10-04-lucid-lynx-to-9-10-karmic-koala-2010-03-15.html
[19:48] <ActionParsnip> brontoeee: the kernel is mildly different
[19:48] <ActionParsnip> !downgrade
[19:48] <etrask> Hello, I am unable to make a bootable 10.04.1 USB stick (it seems to be a known bug, having to do with a graphics driver). However I was wondering: If I were to use the alternate installer (Thus no graphics driver would be needed), would the system be bootable after it is installed? I don't want to try it and have it not work
[19:48] <brontoeee> allowoverride, this will be video playback server, so it needs something
[19:48] <ActionParsnip> etrask: use the alternate iso
[19:48] <brontoeee> xish
[19:49] <Kaizen> how can i see what speed my network card is on ubuntu, it's only transferring at 10MB/s it should be 100
[19:49] <f0g> Then how do we fix the slowness problem? ;)
[19:49] <ActionParsnip> etrask: if you boot to a black screen, websearch: black screen ubuntu boot ,and click the ubuntugeek link
[19:49] <allowoverride> brontoeee: example, i have my freebsd server as a media server, no desktop, gui, so forth, i simply smb to that share, and open up media locally. no frills, it works fine
[19:49] <mrstocks> Is the a official update for utunbu to repaire the should system? (headphone and speaker at the same time)
[19:49] <ActionParsnip> Kaizen: sudo lshw -C network
[19:49] <tiox> Well, what applications are being slow?
[19:49] <erUSUL> Kaizen: sudo ethtool eth0
[19:49] <tiox> Or is it just the entire machine?
[19:50] <etrask> I'll check that out ActionParsnip thank you
[19:50] <chiz>  duckx0r : do I need to sudo apt-get autoremove ?
[19:50] <ActionParsnip> Kaizen: if its wrong, use: sudo ifconfig eth0 rate=100M ,websearch for the exact command, it won't be far off
[19:50] <allowoverride> no need to ssh , or config anything, just have smb 139 port open on the server, or use tcpwrappers, hosts.allow. hosts.deny, there are many ways . but if your trying to xwindow back to your server, try ActionParsnip suggestions, i have other ways of making this work which is not supported here.
[19:51] <duckx0r> chiz, autoremove only removes the downloaded packages in  your apt cache directory and has no effect on installed packages. so you can clear it if you want, or if not, just leave it
[19:51] <Kaizen> hmm it says 100MB/s and so does my windows 7 but it's only going at 10.. hrm
[19:51] <chiz> ok
[19:51] <chiz> wish me a good luck

[19:59] <bobbi> hey all. i was having a MAJOR problem with all my virtual terminals flickering when enabling proprietary graphics drivers. i read somewhere to add a vga=792 boot option in /boot/grub/menu.lst, but it aint there anymore (ubuntu 10.10). so instead, out of sheer luck, i modified the line GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet splash" in /etc/default/grub to GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet splash vga=792" and my consoles aint flickering anymore. my que

[20:10] <helen_> oh
[20:10] <helen_> sorry
[20:10] <ActionParsnip> Not preg
[20:10] <helen_> i should say
[20:10] <ukev> ActionParsnip, yes I know, but I don't want to do that allways on all systems if there is an easier ubuntu way and it seems like there is one otherwise the check for xterm-color doesn't make sense

[20:13] <InJaKi> has anyone ever had a problem with the power supply with ubuntu? with a sudden freeze of their screen? i am using a dual-boot ubuntu 10.10 & Win7 and my comp keeps crashing under ubuntu and nothing happens under win7.
[20:14] <laler> i'm also dualbooting with InJaKi and no problems
[20:14] <ActionParsnip> ukev: cool, watch the bug :)
[20:14] <laler> with win7*
[20:14] <strouthos> Is there a program of good use for organizing and editing a (small) dictionary?
[20:14] <InJaKi> well
[20:15] <ActionParsnip> InJaKi: can you restart the x server, or does the OS just reboot. "Crash" doesn't tell us much...
[20:15] <neves> are you all english ?
[20:15] <laler> -_-
[20:15] <InJaKi> ActionParsnip : my screen just freezes, and then just bam, a total reboot of my system
[20:15] <ActionParsnip> neves: I'm sure some aren't.
[20:16] <InJaKi> laler how much is your power supply?
[20:16] <ActionParsnip> InJaKi: can you restart x before it reboots
[20:16] <Pici> neves: We have a number of alternate language channels, is there one you are looking for?
[20:16] <helen_> gstreamer-properties .. got it
[20:16] <laler> 600w
[20:16] <InJaKi> nope
[20:16] <laler> how much is yours?
[20:16] <InJaKi> nothing
[20:16] <neves> ok great i will be able to improve my englsih
[20:16] <InJaKi> 350
[20:16] <laler> 350 !!!
[20:16] <InJaKi> yeah :E
[20:16] <laler> :3
[20:16] <laler> get a new one
[20:16] <ActionParsnip> laler: how much ram and what cpu type / speed do you have?
[20:16] <ActionParsnip> InJaKi: ^
[20:16] <laler> 4gb standard ram, q6600 @ 2.4
[20:16] <InJaKi> i know, but the odd thing is i can play heavy 3D games on win7 and nothing on ubuntu
[20:17] <ActionParsnip> laler: if its underpowered then win7 wouldn't be fine would it...
[20:17] <neves> it's normal
[20:17] <InJaKi> intel duo core 2.4 - 2gb ddr2
[20:17] <neves> openGL and dirextX are different
[20:17] <rocket16> I installed Exaile compiling it, so how can I remove it?
[20:17] <eurythmia> hey, I use thunderbird as my email client at work, and for some reason it now blocks all images and remote content. Is there some way I can disable that behaviour for emails coming from a certain domain name? (I would like to enable all remote content from all of my co-workers)
[20:17] <ActionParsnip> InJaKi: your cpu is fine
[20:17] <laler> yeah ActionParsnip
[20:17] <laler> But he should still get a better one
[20:18] <laler> by definition
[20:18] <ActionParsnip> rocket16: try removing it in terminal, what is output?
[20:18] <ActionParsnip> laler: why, it is powering the system just fine
[20:18] <laler> yeah
[20:18] <InJaKi> i am using a Asus P5ND2 SE mobo btw
[20:18] <laler> untill you plug something in and your pc reboots
[20:18] <ActionParsnip> laler: so why waste money on something that isn't broken?
[20:18] <rocket16> ActionParsnip: As I didn't use a Package manager, so it returns "The package Exaile is not installed".
[20:18] <InJaKi> i am trying for 2 months now to get ubutu running
[20:19] <laler> he also said he plays heavy games on windows, ActionParsnip, so i'm guessing he has a fairly power consuming videocard
[20:19] <rocket16> ActionParsnip: Ah, found the way! http://www.linuxforums.org/forum/applications/2226-how-do-i-uninstall-program.html Thanks for the help. :)
[20:19] <ActionParsnip> rocket16: use: sudo apt-get --reinstall install exaile
[20:19] <InJaKi> nvidia Geforce 7900GT
[20:19] <ZykoticK9> rocket16, consult the source code for any uninstall instructions - perhaps something like "make uninstall" or similar.  good luck.
[20:19] <laler> rocket16: "whereis <programname>" helps, if you compiled it
[20:19] <ActionParsnip> rocket16: then remove it
[20:19] <laler> 350w is not enough
[20:19] <laler> my 2 cents
[20:19] <InJaKi> laler
[20:20] <goltoof> gonna ask anyway even though it may not make sense,  i just need to setup "blog.site.com" to reflect "site.com/blog"   what all do i need to change in apache to accomplish this?
[20:20] <ubuntu_> kurcze, jestem pierwszy raz na takich kanałach, i chyba z tąd pójdę, ponieważ nie chcę zostać zbanowany ;(
[20:20] <laler> thats probaly not the reason why ubuntu freezes
[20:20] <laler> but
[20:20] <ActionParsnip> laler: sure but it doesn't reboot in windows, so its powerful enough.only just but its ok
[20:20] <laler> yeah
[20:20] <laler> ok
[20:20] <InJaKi> also, it gets over 75 C under ubuntu, my vid card
[20:20] <laler> ill stop talking
[20:20] <PeterNL> I want to format my microSD card, but when i open gparted, ir says "Input/output error during read on /dev/sdb"
[20:20] <laler> PeterNL, je kaart is kapuutt
[20:21] <ActionParsnip> InJaKi: sounds likely to be the cause. I'd check what it can tolleratea
[20:21] <rocket16> ActionParsnip ZykoticK9 laler Thanks guys, I found the same solution, i.,e "sudo make uninstall". :) Thanks all.
[20:21] <goltoof> site.com/blog works, just need blog.site.com   to reflect it's contents
[20:21] <InJaKi> ive tried a new nvidia card that only gets 35C and still it crashes
[20:21] <PeterNL> laler: No, it is not. it worked 5 minutes ago (as read only, but that was because of the lock switch on the microSd to SD adapter)
[20:22] <ActionParsnip> rocket16: that'll be it if you compiled the source, yes. Ubuntu usespackages to make things neater to uninstall
[20:22] <laler> He's gone actionparsnip
[20:22] <InJaKi> ive got this sexy casing for my comp, with lights and all, abd when i disconnet all the lights and my floppy i am getting less crashes
[20:22] <ActionParsnip> PeterNL: try using dd to output s to the device
[20:22] <laler> lol injaki
[20:22] <PeterNL> ActionParsnip: I will :D
[20:22] <laler> lights, 7900 gt, win7 + 350w
[20:22] <InJaKi> wat lol? niet sexy dan? :X
[20:22] <ActionParsnip> laler: looks like you got it right, mybad
[20:23] <laler> sexy hoor :) daar niet van
[20:23] <PeterNL> InJaKi: your lights draw too much power from your PSU :D
[20:23] <laler> lool
[20:23] <MindVirus> Anyone have any experience with swapspace?
[20:23] <doolph> hello how can I grow filesystem?
[20:23] <InJaKi> but still, under win it doesnt crash, and under ubuntu it does
[20:23] <laler> because people like injaki the northpole is melting
[20:23] <PeterNL> laler, InJaKi: sinds wanneer man je hier NL praten?
[20:24] <goltoof> !nl
[20:24] <laler> sinds ik hier daarnet iets in het nederlands zei en rebels was
[20:24] <InJaKi> you may not
[20:24] <ActionParsnip> InJaKi: your psu is way too small for lights. You can get enough juice in. The fact that when you remove the lights you get less crashes points to this in a massive way
[20:24] <goltoof> laler, PeterNL....   seriously
[20:24] <laler> sorry
[20:24] <PeterNL> goltoof: that's (more or less) what I said, but in Dutch...
[20:24] <laler> injaki is guilty too
[20:25] <InJaKi> ActionParsnip : explain to me why i dont have those crashes under win7?
[20:25] <doolph> hello how can I grow filesystem?
[20:25] <PeterNL> InJaKi: when my gfx cooler broke, and my card heated up to 120C windows shut the computer down. Ubuntu let it go further than that...
[20:25] <laler> lol
[20:25] <goltoof> doolph,   water?
[20:26] <laler> sunlight helps too
[20:26] <ActionParsnip> InJaKi: possibly some better power management software. Remember company's work FAR closer with Microsoft so their hardware works. They don't show the same love to linux in many cases
[20:26] <area51pilot> :P
[20:26] <goltoof> sudo apt-get vitamins
[20:26] <chadi> Reinstallation of upower is not possible, it cannot be downloaded. | when attempting to apt-get install --reinstall upower. Any idea why?
[20:26] <MindVirus> Anyone know anything about swapspace?
[20:26] <PeterNL> doolph: cowshit (or was it cowsay?)
[20:27] <InJaKi> so ubuntu acts faster with a screen freeze and reboot just to be more safe ActionParsnip ?
[20:27] <PeterNL> !swap | MindVirus
[20:27] <ActionParsnip> goltoof: unknown option 'vitamins' ;-)
[20:27] <MindVirus> PeterNL: I don't mean swap, I mean swapspace.
[20:27] <laler> InJaKi, try to see what kind of voltages you're running under win7, under ubuntu and in the bios
[20:27] <psusi> psu too small for lights?  what kind of lights are we talking about?
[20:27] <PeterNL> !swapspace | MindVirus
[20:27] <MindVirus> swapspace is a program that dynamically allocates swap files.
[20:27] <ActionParsnip> InJaKi: idont understand that. Can you. Please expand..
[20:28] <InJaKi> i am trying to say, that linux shuts down faster with better software then windows would.
[20:28] <InJaKi> to protect your comp
[20:29] <jay_> Hello. I'm running ubuntu 10.10 netbook remix. I'm having a hard time installing the adobe flash plugin. It says to get from 'maverick-partner', so I click 'Use This Source', but nothing changes, no install button, just the "use this source" button.
[20:30] <PeterNL> ActionParsnip: 0 bytes (0 B) copied, 5.0974e-05 s, 0.0 kB/s
[20:30] <PeterNL> And it is NOT broken!
[20:30] <ActionParsnip> InJaKi: all I can say is that due topoor support most likly byyourboardmanufacturer, all your hardware will be running. At full power using more Watts which in your case are bare minimum. The windows side. Will probably have some software to monitor stuff andclock it slower and this is lacking in linux. If you give your system more power. It will be able to run as it wishes without issue
[20:31] <laler> ^ what he said
[20:31] <InJaKi> ActionParsnip : Ty for your time, and laler to
[20:31] <ActionParsnip> PeterNL: i'd go with dead card, could try waving a strong magnet over it but ONLY as a last ditch before it goes in the bin
[20:32] <InJaKi> ive made an post on eu and us forum with this problem and no replies
[20:32] <laler> asus support is equal to how african countries support their population
[20:32] <InJaKi> lmfao
[20:32] <laler> i'm not joking
[20:32]  * InJaKi licks laler
[20:32] <laler> its terrible
[20:32] <PeterNL> But it worked 5 minutes ago. I even copied everything to my HDD before the reformatting
[20:32] <ActionParsnip> InJaKi: i'd post a bug too, possibly with acpi
[20:33] <InJaKi> good, then i will get at least 650 PS then ?>
[20:33] <laler> 600 is fine
[20:33] <ActionParsnip> laler: asus make eee pc which loves linux :)
[20:33] <psusi> heh... I have an asus mobo and once wrote them asking for the data sheet on the chipset so I could fix their broken ACPI tables... they wanted me to sign an NDA
[20:33] <PeterNL> I've got light too, running with a 350W PSU :D
[20:33] <laler> heh, actionparsnip :)
[20:33] <karthick87> Is there any reminder software available in ubuntu..?
[20:33] <PeterNL> My lights react to my sound card output :D
[20:33] <goltoof> karthick87.... kcal
[20:33] <X-Seti> Just had the upgrade manager crash in me upgrading from 10.04 -> 10.10
[20:34] <laler> that's gangsta, PeterNL
[20:34] <PeterNL> laler: I got a video of it (on a Ubuntu server)
[20:34] <ActionParsnip> I have a 250w psu in one of mine with 2gb ram and a sempron 3000 @ 1.6ghz am2 :)
[20:34] <laler> Get me it :)
[20:34] <X-Seti> i know it was installing the stuff it downloaded 3 hours ago, not to sure what to do next, I do not feel like installing from scratch, I have way to much stuff on here.
[20:34] <karthick87> goltoof: i want a reminder software that should pop up when the time comes
[20:34] <goltoof> karthick87,    or not  :S     forgot the name, i'll find it
[20:34] <ActionParsnip> Onboard everything too. Its sweet
[20:34] <jay_> I need help downloading/installing the adobe flash plugin for firefox.
[20:35] <goltoof> karthick87,    yea i know what you're talking about..

[20:35] <InJaKi> anyway, thnx eveyone 8)
[20:35] <InJaKi> everyone*
[20:35] <InJaKi> sigh
[20:35] <goltoof> karthick87,     ah,  kalarm
[20:35] <ActionParsnip> Jay_: if you install ubuntu-restricted-extras ,it install flash for you
[20:35] <PeterNL> laler: http://peter-server.homelinux.net/kijkdoos/
[20:35] <goltoof> karthick87,     brilliant program... the author is cool too
[20:36] <laler> I've got a 10 year old laptop ( 750 mhz, 128mb ram ) and it just doesnt die, works fine with linux
[20:36] <laler> i love it
[20:36] <karthick87> which one you recommend?
[20:36] <laler> Ill watch it PeterNL :)
[20:36] <ActionParsnip> laler: its an asus p1-ah2 pundit check it out :)
[20:36] <karthick87> goltoof, which one you recommend?
[20:36] <PeterNL> laler: that server has a 600MHz cpu with 256MB ram
[20:36] <goltoof> karthick87,      sudo apt-get install kalarm
[20:37] <mikebeecham> can anyone point me how to remove gmailwatcher from my memenu?
[20:37] <mikebeecham> I seem to have two in there now
[20:37] <laler> Ah i will check it out actionparsnip
[20:37] <laler> cool PeterNL :-D
[20:38] <laler> Sine when do servers play music
[20:38] <ActionParsnip> laler: it has a quirk where the white monitor cable (I forget the name) only works under linux :)
[20:38] <karthick87> goltoof, thankyou :)
[20:38] <duckx0r> how do I create a launcher to launch multiple commands? if I do "command1 && command2" it doesn't do anything
[20:38] <goltoof> karthick87,     npr
[20:39] <laler> That's really cool actionparsnip =D
[20:39] <PeterNL> laler: kijkdoos is my desktop, flappie is the laptop, and my server is just my server. all of them run ubuntu or debian. An then there's my phone, Android 2 :D
[20:39] <ActionParsnip> duckx0r: i'd ask in #bash too
[20:39] <laler> the server should be called surfer
[20:39] <laler> in the same fashion as your other pc's
[20:39] <aeon-ltd> duckx0r: pastebin your syntax
[20:39] <PeterNL> laler: I could do just that :D
[20:39] <laler> :)
[20:39] <PeterNL> my phone is usually called foon
[20:39] <duckx0r> aeon-ltd, the syntax is fine because it works in a terminal
[20:40] <PeterNL> like PeterNLfoon when I use AndIRC
[20:40] <aeon-ltd> duckx0r: pastebin anyways?
[20:40] <PeterNL> err, AndChat it is
[20:40] <ActionParsnip> PeterNL: snap, right now in the cold
[20:41]  * PeterNL points at PeterNLfoon 
[20:41] <PeterNL> brb
[20:41] <duckx0r> aeon-ltd, http://pastebin.com/eUjRTNjP
[20:42] <aeon-ltd> duckx0r: whats your terminal?
[20:42] <PeterNL> actually my server is usually called by it's FQDN, so things work from the outside as well
[20:43] <laler> What do you do with your server?
[20:43] <cyx> hi there
[20:43] <duckx0r> aeon-ltd, it's not a terminal. it's a gnome launcher
[20:43] <laler> My friend got a bigass expensive microsoft server but we dont have a clue what to do with it
[20:43] <cyx> anyone know why openssl / curl on ubuntu 10.04 is buggy?
[20:43] <PeterNL> laler: remove all of the MS stickers, and but linux on it (DUH!)
[20:44] <PeterNL> put*
[20:44] <laler> I suggested that
[20:44] <laler> but he wanted to have remote desktop at all cost
[20:44] <laler> since he's a MS noob
[20:44] <laler> :(
[20:44] <laler> atleast i tried ;)
[20:44] <PeterNL> What's wrong with ssh, or X forwarding?
[20:44] <PeterNL> Give him putty+xming
[20:44] <laler> He's an IT proffesionial, he should know better
[20:44] <kunguz> I can hear sound from avi files but can not see any image. I am using ubuntu netbook edition with poulsbo graphics accelerator, any idea how to solve this?
[20:45] <goltoof> kunguz,     vlc
[20:45] <steve_> I have a good question ... When I type something into firefox, it autocompletes what it thinks I will choose as web site.  I want that to stop.  How do I do that?
[20:45] <aeon-ltd> duckx0r: you may need 'yourterminal -e (your commands) amd you may require a second terminal -e 2ndcommand'
[20:45] <kunguz> goltoof: I already install vlc from package manager
[20:45] <goltoof> KungFuJesus,    probably missing codecs
[20:45] <amarcolino1> PeterNL: give them cygwin
[20:45] <duckx0r> aeon-ltd, ok thanks
[20:46] <aeon-ltd> duckx0r: tell me if it works
[20:46] <kunguz> goltoof: I have installed several codec but somehow still no luck. I can see a small preview picture in nautilus but can not see any picture in any player
[20:46] <kunguz> I can play flash videos on the same computer very efficiently
[20:46] <goltoof> tried with other players?  smplayer? gnomeplayer?
[20:46] <steve_> and something else ... who can help me get Kvirc to work?
[20:47] <kunguz> goltoof: yes, but no chance. Do you know any codec package name for it? maybe I missed to install one?
[20:47] <peeps[work]> how do i get rid of this pidgin notifications in the upper corner.  it is dstracting and I can't stand it
[20:48] <brontoeee> kunguz, mediainfo , google for it, read on how to install it carefully, then type : mediainfo filewithnopicture.avi
[20:48] <steve_> So, 1st question : how do I stop firefox, etc from autocompleting the sites I already visited?
[20:48] <goltoof> kunguz,    probably corrupt?   not sure man
[20:48] <steve_> and 2nd, what do I need to do to get Kvirc to work
[20:48] <steve_> ??
[20:48] <brontoeee> steve_, delete the browser history?
[20:48] <kunguz> brontoeee: Thank you, for this information I am trying it right away
[20:49] <sinisterstuf> I wanted a lighter login manager so I tried SLIM and XDM but neither of them work, ubuntu only starts when GDM is set as the default, what can I do to use the others, it just sortof freezes and the tty showing the processes just says starting slim (or xdm) I even left it for 6 hours nothing happened!
[20:49] <duckx0r> aeon-ltd, it works if i have one command, but not two
[20:49] <steve_> brontoeee: more than that.
[20:49] <kunguz> goltoof: I am pretty sure that file is not corrupted because I am playing it from a disk and it worked well with another computer
[20:49] <goltoof> steve_    if you have a bookmark to a site then it'll still autocomplete that site.. fyi
[20:49] <duckx0r> aeon-ltd, this is what i'm putting for 2 commands: gnome-terminal -e "notify-send \"Keyboard layout changed to English\" \&\& setxkbmap us"
[20:50] <duckx0r> aeon-ltd, i also tried it without escaping the &'s
[20:50] <brontoeee> kunguz, then its something else, maybe to do with your graphics and drivers in general, shrug
[20:50] <retfar> steve_: turn off auto completion in preferances
[20:50] <steve_> brontoeee: more than that.  I went to sites that I don't want reference to.
[20:50] <steve_> and that I haven't bookmarked
[20:50] <usuario> hey. Any idea how can I disable the auto muting when the front headphone is connected?
[20:51] <brontoeee> steve_, and if you delete the browser history what happens?
[20:51] <steve_> it still autocompletes
[20:51] <goltoof> steve_,     Edit > Preferences > Privacy > Location Bar ... select None
[20:51] <steve_> brontoeee: I have put the cache to 0 MB and to not retain history
[20:52] <duckx0r> aeon-ltd, ok i got it. i had to do sh -c
[20:53] <brontoeee> steve_, firefox right?
[20:53] <aeon-ltd> duckx0r: try gnome-terminal -e "notify-send 'Keyboard layout changed to English' && gnome-terminal -e 'setxkbmap us'
[20:53] <steve_> among others
[20:53] <aeon-ltd> duckx0r: meh, you got it in the end :)
[20:53] <aeon-ltd> anyways
[20:53] <goltoof> steve_,   did you try what i suggested?
[20:53] <goltoof> in FF
[20:53] <steve_> I have cromium, opera and sea monkey
[20:54] <steve_> yes, I did ... and I think it works
[20:54] <goltoof> works for me  :)
[20:54] <Scunizi> What do I use for managing PGP Keys in a kde environment?
[20:54] <duckx0r> aeon-ltd, yep. thanks for your help
[20:55] <brontoeee> steve_, close ff, then rename /home/user/.mozzila to /home/user/.mozilla_old, start firefox
[20:55] <aeon-ltd> duckx0r: your welcome, glad i could help a little :)
[20:55] <goltoof> o_0
[20:55] <brontoeee> oh, it allready works, nm then
[20:56] <sinisterstuf> anybody know why ubuntu won't start when I use a login manager other than GDM?
[20:56] <sinisterstuf> is there some extra configuration that needs doing?
[20:57] <frW> If I want to make a dist-upgrade from "karmic", is it safe to change that to "natty" and then do a dist-upgrade?
[20:58] <guntbert> frW: no
[20:58] <frW> guntbert, why not?
[20:58] <guntbert> !upgrade | frW
[20:58] <guntbert> frW: upgrades go only step by step
[20:58] <frW> Right, thanks. :)
[20:59] <guntbert> frW: you're welcome :-)
[20:59] <frW> Hmm from 9.10 to 10.04, there's just 2 commands to run.. seems easy enough
[21:01] <steve_> and what do I do with Kvirc??
[21:01] <night> i wana books
[21:02] <night> intelligents books
[21:02] <steve_> brontoeee: And thx for the FF help
[21:02] <goltoof> night...  sudo apt-get books
[21:02] <lucas-arg> Im having problems with nvidia-current from x-swat ppa and ubuntu startup and shutdown process, some times it works ok and some times it doesnt... Im guessing its an nvidia propietary issue since I didnt have any problems when I had native drivers working... is there any way to fix the problem?
[21:02] <night> are you joking
[21:03] <Catuba> hi

[21:05] <night> yes that what i mean
[21:06] <goltoof> i use figlet for ascii-art, any other good ones out there?
[21:06] <aeon-ltd> night: a programming language? then ask on their respective channels, i.e ask in #C if you wanna learn C

[21:07] <sinisterstuf> goltoof, figlet's pretty good, have you checked Jave for drawing ASCII art? supports figlet fonts too…
[21:07] <miguel000> I wonder why I can not start my ubuntu when my disk is set to AHCI mode :(
[21:07] <miguel000> It freezes during the bootup
[21:08] <usuario> hey. Any idea how can I disable the auto muting when the front headphone is connected?
[21:09] <Nattgew> I've set my remote desktop settings to allow connections, but my VNC client keeps saying it can't connect

[21:10] <cardamon> Hey guys.
[21:10] <sinisterstuf> goltoof, it makes drawing in ascii really really easy
[21:10] <kosaidpo> hello
[21:10] <kosaidpo> guys anynoe can have a test chat with me in skype

[21:11] <st0rm> problema con un programa c ¿alguien quiere echar una mano?
[21:11] <miguel000> my laptop hangs during stratup when I set AHCI mode instead of IDE mode for my internal sata disk in the bios. Any ideas why this can happen?
[21:11] <goltoof> night,  it'd really help for you to nail down all the basics, ie, navigation, group, user, directory and file permissions, opening and editing files, etc  before you even think about programming
[21:11] <Nattgew> !ssh night
[21:11] <yitz_> Thanks, Pici
[21:11] <Pici> yitz_: you're welcome.

[21:13] <aeMaeth> my default java handler for chrome seems to handle it better than firefox, is there any way to see which version of what each is using, in hopes of getting firefox to use chrome, if indeed there's a difference?
[21:13] <goltoof> sinisterstuf,    found that one recently, charmed my pants off
[21:13] <sinisterstuf> goltoof, indeed I've done that too, was fun, but somehow failed to impress my friends with it…
[21:13] <cardamon> I need to do some simple stuff in java, and I prefer to write in vim when I can.  I've got openjdk installed, but I haven't done any other work to set up an environment.  Please point me in the right direction?
[21:14] <cardamon> Screen real estate's at a premium on a netbook, so I don't like working in netbeans.
[21:14] <goltoof> sinisterstuf,     hey   have you ever seen that star wars movie that's entirely in ascii?   where can i find it?
[21:14] <ejv> can anyone assist me in backing up a GPT partiton table? :)
[21:14] <sinisterstuf> cardamon, have you tried a lightweight IDE like geany instead of netbeans?
[21:14] <night> i wana use microsoft software on linux
[21:14] <kbrosnan> aeMaeth: those words don't make any sense
[21:15] <aeMaeth> kbrosnan, which part sounds the most insane?
[21:15] <goltoof> !wine   | night
[21:15] <cardamon> sinisterstuf: I still prefer woorking in a term.
[21:15] <sinisterstuf> goltoof, no I haven't, I do remember one that looked like a DOS platform game though
[21:15] <goltoof> sinisterstuf,     ah maybe it's a dos thing.
[21:15] <aeMaeth> kbrosnan, i messed up and said "firefox use chrome" but i meant the same java, like if the open one and the sun one are installed?
[21:15] <kbrosnan> aeMaeth: Java is a plugin, they would both use the same java
[21:15] <sinisterstuf> cardamon, ok well, I never set it up myself but I remember you could always use the java command to run the code once I'd written it
[21:16] <brontoeee> goltoof, i think that was telnet server
[21:16] <cardamon> I just need to setup my environment, right?
[21:16] <aeMaeth> kbrosnan, ok, good to know
[21:16] <night> ok but when i download windows messenger windows live is not running
[21:16] <aeMaeth> any ideas on why one would react so different?
[21:16] <night> its request framework
[21:16] <kbrosnan> aeMaeth: are you confusing Java and JavaScript
[21:16] <goltoof> night,  it really helps when you include the name of the person you're talking to in your message....   look at what the group is doing
[21:17] <night> ok sorry
[21:17] <usuario> Hello,  how can I disable the auto muting when the front headphone is connected?
[21:17] <aeMaeth> possibly...i'll just end this hear
[21:17] <aeMaeth> *here
[21:18] <night> goltoof i have wine but windows live messenger 2011 is not running with me
[21:19] <sinisterstuf> night, what's wrong with a Linux messenger for WinLive like emeseen, pidgin or empathy?
[21:19] <goltoof> night,   why do want live messenger for anyway?    plenty of other apps in linux that'll connect to your live account
[21:20] <night> because the topic name is not supported with color
[21:20] <goltoof> night,   pidgin will connect you to live, aim, yahoo, gtalk, irc, etc
[21:20] <aeMaeth> does pidgin support video?
[21:21] <sampleee> hi people

[21:45] <z00m> i just noticed that app running on the desktop and wanted it
[21:46] <z00m> the monitor software for network, cpu, ram etc
[21:46] <hiexpo> z00m, well what did you think that app was   > captain kangaroo
[21:46] <rww> AkTiV: For IRC network sta... meh.
[21:47] <z00m> hiexpo, do u understand me or not ?
[21:47] <z00m> im wanting the app on the right hand side of the desktop on that video
[21:47] <z00m> :S
[21:47] <z00m> the monitor software
[21:48] <hiexpo> z00m, oh ok my bad than
[21:48] <z00m> no worries
[21:48] <edgarin> Hi
[21:48] <z00m> any idea what the monitor software is called ?
[21:48] <edgarin> Somebody here?
[21:48] <z00m> so i can see how many connections ive got active and network traffic
[21:48] <hiexpo> let me see again what distro it is
[21:48] <rlankfo> z00m: network monitoring?
[21:49] <z00m> im guessing its ubuntu
[21:49] <MiMe> I'd like to take part in developing Ubuntu applications, where should I start from? (actually I know I should google, but I found different articles, which explained different proccesses)
[21:49] <rlankfo> z00m: you could use something like cacti
[21:49] <z00m> rlankfo, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kM595bbXcVo
[21:49] <rlankfo> z00m: http://www.cacti.net/
[21:49] <z00m> its being used on this desktop at the start of the video
[21:51] <rlankfo> z00m: i have no idea what that is since i don't use the gui
[21:51] <rlankfo> maybe eg-sysmon or something
[21:51] <joe85> why does the Ubuntu installer ignore my drive selection?
[21:51] <rlankfo> wmsysmon perhaps
[21:52] <hiexpo> z00m, ok it's a ubuntu desktop with compiz i think it's eg-sysmon
[21:53] <joe85> Does Ubuntu not work with RAID controller?
[21:53] <Luxi^^> join #ubuntu
[21:54] <brontoeee> hmm, nx seems to work well for remote gnome access, i do wonder however if this is not overshoot?
[21:56] <Jygga> joe85 you can set up any storage device known to man and run ubuntu on it
[21:58] <nellie> trying to fix my moms pc. it has ubuntu 10.04 and going to upgrade to 10.10 but now spair hard drive is not found but when i ran live cd it sees it. im back to main os not live cd and gone still. how do I get it to see hard drive again.. it has ntfs format
[21:59] <chien> hello everybody.
[22:00] <MattQC> hello hello
[22:01] <chien> i'am lost again but bonsoir.
[22:02] <MattQC> Salut chien
[22:02] <MattQC> hello
[22:02] <wang_> hey
[22:02] <tripelb> U-10.04.  I want to print a section of a web page. Not the ads it is surrounded by. How do I do this?
[22:02] <guntbert> MattQC:  Do you have an ubuntu support question?
[22:03] <chien> some one have news about poker th..?...salut MATT
[22:03] <wang_> how do I disable starting apache2 and mysql on reboot
[22:03] <guntbert> !ot | chien
[22:03] <fserb> hey guys. Are python-qt4 deps broken on maverick?
[22:03] <tripelb> In Windows I ccould choose the part with the mouse and "print selection" ? I know I can "select" the text and print selection.
[22:04] <MattQC> chien: Sorry, I know little of Poker
[22:04] <tripelb> U-10.04.  I want to print a section of a web page. Not the ads it is surrounded by. How do I do this?
[22:04] <anygivenname> is there a way to shut down the apps opened remotely from on the server ?
[22:04] <chien> ok .viva linux!!!
[22:04] <guntbert> MattQC: please keep to the topic of this channel - ubuntu support
[22:04] <joe85> total fail
[22:04] <joe85> Ubuntu ruined my bootmgr again
[22:04] <gokr> wang_: http://seerofsouls.com/wiki/How-Tos/RemovingServicesAtBootTime
[22:04] <MattQC> I am, I am; guntbert, I was merely retorking the other intervenor
[22:04] <MattQC> tripelb; you are using Firefox?
[22:05] <guntbert> MattQC: please don't :-)
[22:05] <MattQC> My apologies.
[22:05] <tripelb> mattgyver, chrome  oops mattqc
[22:05] <rocket16> whar's the new font for Ubuntu 10.10's name? I think I lost it after installation. :(
[22:05] <MattQC> I am new; I must learn the humour of this place, and how to keep it in check
[22:05] <nellie> my ubuntu has stopped showing my secondary hard drive and card reader or any usb devices I plug in but if I run live cd everything shows up and works fine. any idea how to fix?
[22:05] <gokr> wang_: Oops, this might be better: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuBootupHowto
[22:05] <joe85> Anyone know how to solve "error: no such disk. grub rescue>"
[22:06] <MattQC> I have little experience with Chrome, however with Firefox I would usually hold down the Ctrl key, while selecting what I want
[22:06] <tripelb> lucky for me MattQC I opened it in Open office and the way Funky Tables happened it was pages 2 and 3. The image in OO was notihing at all like the page. Good for me.
[22:06] <guntbert> MattQC: this channel is for support - best show your humor elsewhere :-)
[22:06] <Jordan_U> joe85: Do you have more than one hard drive?
[22:06] <joe85> Jordan_U, yes.
[22:06] <gokr> I just dropped in here to check if others feel Firefox has started to behave "bad" in Ubuntu. Like getting unresponsive often etc, possibly related to flash.
[22:06] <tripelb> MattQC, OK  next time firefox. Thank you so much.  PS humor at the end is good. <3 U
[22:07] <MattQC> tripelb, I know, Ooo is somewhat wonky. I was chatting with some developers in the LibreOffice forum last night actually
[22:07] <wang_> gokr, I have nothing in /etc/rc3.d
[22:07] <wang_> for mysql nor apache2
[22:07] <MattQC> Once that project goes gold, we should have better integration
[22:07] <Jordan_U> joe85: Try changing the boot order. That error usually means that grub is not being installed to the drive you're actually booting from (what you're getting is a left over half installation from an older grub).
[22:07] <joe85> Jordan_U, I tried booting both. The one that gives grub rescue is my Windows drive. The Linux drive just shows a flashing cursor.
[22:08] <MattQC> Now for my question... is anybody here particularly good with Wine?
[22:08] <tripelb> MattQC, FYI there is a channel called #ubuntu-offtopic -- with some of the same people.  (OO doth lack. On the other hand, I have it.)
[22:08] <Metalan> Hi guys
[22:09] <Metalan> My wireless stopped working and I'm trying to rule out a faulty wireless card. How can I do this?
[22:09] <MattQC> I'm an Ooo fan as well, won't say otherwise.
[22:09] <guntbert> MattQC: there is #wine ...
[22:09] <Jordan_U> joe85: Follow this guide to re-install grub: http://grub.enbug.org/Grub2LiveCdInstallGuide then when you're done pastebin the output of "debconf-show grub-pc" so we can figure out why it wasn't upgraded properly.
[22:09] <MattQC> Metalan: what type of wireless card do you have?
[22:09] <hiexpo> iwconfig
[22:09] <blue_anna> how do I set in resolve.conf the localhost as the nameserver permanently with dnsmasq?
[22:10] <Metalan> MattQC: Onboard wireless card.
[22:10] <RandomizeR> hey guys, i need a quick answer: i'm installing ubuntu to dual-boot with windows 7 on my HP laptop. where should i put the bootloader?
[22:10] <RandomizeR> the windows 7 C drive?
[22:10] <tripelb> mattqc damn I got an old page and one I'd asked for but it Didnt fit page like it showed on the screen. Bad OO. No donut.
[22:10] <RandomizeR> i really don't wanna screw windows up such that it cann't boot anymore
[22:11] <MattQC> RandomizeR: make a clone of Windows before fooling around: Clonezilla
[22:11] <fserb> anyway I can fix the python-qt4 broken dependencies before it's solved on the repository?
[22:11] <hiexpo> Random832, than better to use a vm
[22:11] <area51pilot> RandomizeR: use WUBI or Backup data and see MattQC post
[22:12] <RandomizeR> MattQC, yeah, actually i just decided i'm not gonna do anything else until i backup my entire system
[22:12] <hiexpo> mack cd copies
[22:12] <RandomizeR> i already moved some partitions around and ended up losing the HP boot recovery utility
[22:12] <Dwade09> guys this is weird i turn my sound bar up and down on using the slider near the clock, i always have to use sound pref or alsa mixer or the pulse audio control volume. im tired of having to do that how do i fix it perm where all i have to do is use the slider under the volume icon near the clock?
[22:12] <area51pilot> RandomizeR: using WUBI will load Ubuntu into Windows like a program..wont affect Windows
[22:13] <RandomizeR> mainly cuz i had 4 primary partitions so i couldn't get linux to fit in there, i had to remove a partition and make it extended
[22:13] <MattQC> tripelb: Okay, just ran your experiment with Ooo pasting via Firefox
[22:13] <MattQC> It works, okay
[22:13] <nellie> I have a slave hard drive with ntfs format and usb card reader and thumb drive that my ubuntu will not recognize any longer but it works fine in live cd mode. I need to see the slave drive to back everything up to install 10.10 can some one help me fix this please?
[22:13] <RandomizeR> yeah, but most of my work would be on Ubuntu, i just don't wanna lose the original windows that came with the laptop
[22:13] <hiexpo> get rid of alsa
[22:13] <MattQC> Nellie: try fixing the filesystems via Disk Utility
[22:13] <Dwade09> hiexpo,  that towards me?
[22:14] <frW> I just made a dist-upgrade and after that all my init-scripts were gone, is there a way to list all init scripts that are enabled?
[22:14] <hiexpo> Dwade09, yup
[22:14] <blue_anna> how do I set in resolve.conf the localhost as the nameserver permanently with dnsmasq?
[22:14] <blue_anna> !dnsmasq
[22:14] <MattQC> Cheerio
[22:15] <Dwade09> hiexpo,  not sure if that will work sometimes i have to use it to unmute my mic or my speakers cause it doesnt auto unmute sometimes.
[22:15] <RandomizeR> thanks area51pilot MattQC
[22:15] <Jordan_U> joe85: Make sure that when you get to the grub-install portion of the instructions you install to the mbr, like /dev/sda, *not* to a partition, like /dev/sda1.
[22:15] <area51pilot> np
[22:16] <nellie> mattqc, disk utility did not show any other drives
[22:16] <Lok> hi all

[22:26] <zaxonspox> Chaos2358, choose to "block your desktop" not to logout
[22:26] <Chaos2358> zaxonspox, under what? dont have that option
[22:27] <Jordan_U> joe85: You have fakeRAID, which means that you need to install to one of the /dev/mapper/ devices.
[22:27] <Jordan_U> joe85: (and mount from one of them as well).
[22:27] <zaxonspox> Chaos2358, click on the icon you click when you want to logout, or turn off PC, and select "block" or what is written there The desktop
[22:28] <joe85> I did install to a dev/mapper device
[22:28] <Jordan_U> joe85: What mount command did you try to use?
[22:28] <Chaos2358> i am the only user and when i click the power button icon it gives me shutdown restart suspend and hibernate zaxonspox
[22:28] <hiexpo> Chaos2358, go to system/preferences/power management
[22:28] <joe85> I didnt, I just selected it from the install menu. ARe you saying I need to follow that wiki and use the mapper instead of the standard /dev
[22:28] <joe85> ?
[22:29] <Dwade09> guys this is weird i turn my sound bar up and down on using the slider near the clock, i always have to use sound pref or alsa mixer . im tired of having to do that how do i fix it perm where all i have to do is use the slider under the volume icon near the clock?
[22:29] <Jordan_U> joe85: What install menu?
[22:29] <zaxonspox> Chaos2358, and options like: "Guest Session", "Switch user", "Block desktop" ?
[22:29] <joe85> Jordan_U, I thought you were talking about the initail Ubuntu Setup.
[22:30] <Chaos2358> zaxonspox,  nope. single user with no guest optinons
[22:30] <Jordan_U> joe85: No, I was not.
[22:30] <FlexGuy> who used vfw.c ? from libavdevice?
[22:30] <jechid> hello
[22:31] <FlexGuy> hi
[22:31] <jechid> lots of people around ...
[22:31] <hiexpo> Chaos2358, i told you how to fis it
[22:31] <hiexpo> ^ fix
[22:31] <wideyes> hello all! anyone have a suggestion for a good channel to discuss dhcp settings?
[22:31] <Chaos2358> not close the lid??
[22:31] <zaxonspox> Chaos2358, i am also only user, but i have those options
[22:31] <blue_anna> Dwade09, you click and drag on the little round thing and set it to your preferred volume
[22:31] <jechid> i have a quick question about my ubuntu 10.10 installation...
[22:31] <demon002_> Anyone here point me to a tutorial for Dual-Boot: Ubuntu 10.10 Netbook Remix and BackTrack4-Final
[22:32] <Chaos2358> hiexpo what not close it?
[22:32] <Chaos2358> zaxonspox, not on mine i dont know why i had them on 10.04 but not after upgrade
[22:32] <Dwade09> blue_anna,  i have it wont work
[22:32] <blue_anna> jechid, just ask :)
[22:32] <blue_anna> Dwade09, it is greyed out ?
[22:32] <hiexpo> Chaos2358, go to system > preferences > power management > and change when lid is closed do nothing
[22:33] <demon002_> Anyone here point me to a tutorial for Dual-Boot: Ubuntu 10.10 Netbook Remix and BackTrack4-Final
[22:33] <Chaos2358> hiexpo ok sorry it was the other guy who said not to close it. i dont have a "do nothing" setting. only blank screen and suspend
[22:33] <zaxonspox> Chaos2358, try pressing CTRL+ALT+L (by me is block/disable desktop)
[22:33] <jechid> i noticed in my home directory a directory called Ubuntu-i386, which includes an image file Ubuntu_HDDImage.img which is 19.5GB in size
[22:33] <Dwade09> blue_anna,  no i just drag the slider and nothing happens i have to go down to sound pref to the output tab to do the sound
[22:33] <jechid> no idea when or how this got created
[22:33] <Chaos2358> zaxonspox, does nothing
[22:34] <aeon-ltd> jechid: did you happen to remaster recently? or backup your entire sys?
[22:34] <jechid> is this file supposed to be there
[22:34] <jechid> i don't recall doing any backup of my system
[22:34] <hiexpo> demon002_, look of bt website
[22:34] <jechid> don't actually know how to do it
[22:34] <masen> jechid: are you using WUBI?
[22:34] <usuario> Hello,  how can I disable the auto muting when the front headphone is connected? as soon as I plug the frontal headphone on my desktop it mutes everything, including the headphone..
[22:34] <jechid> no its a plain installation
[22:34] <joe85> Jordan_U, Where should I install grub?
[22:35] <demon002_> hiexpo thanks for answering, it only has a tut for 6.6 ubuntu/ BT4 dual boot
[22:35] <jechid> hmm, perhaps i did try some backup a few weeks ago
[22:35] <Chaos2358> hiexpo, any other ideas?
[22:35] <aeon-ltd> jechid: no nothing of that size should be there, unless you tried to backup or create somekind of 'cover all' backup iso
[22:35] <hiexpo> Chaos2358, 1 sec
[22:35] <masen> jechid: have you looked at what the image contains? perhaps mounting it as a loop device?
[22:35] <jechid> ok, i vaguely recall trying out backups, perhaps this was created
[22:36] <jechid> i am not familiar with the img format
[22:36] <jechid> can this be mounted
[22:36] <FlexGuy> who used vfw.c ? from libavdevice?
[22:36] <aeon-ltd> jechid: its like .iso but can be used for usb
[22:36] <Chaos2358> hiexpo and i am sorry i also have hibernate and shutdown options in power managment for when lid is closed but not 'do nothing"
[22:36] <aeon-ltd> jechid: yeah it should be mountable
[22:36] <jechid> ok. i think i would just delete it since i dont need a full backup of the system
[22:37] <jechid> i am using ubuntu one to selectively backup data files
[22:37] <joe85> Jordan_U, Where should I install grub?
[22:37] <zaxonspox> Chaos2358, open from terminal gconf-editor and navigate to /apps/desktop/gnome/lockdown
[22:37] <masen> jechid: good call, removing an image file shouldn't affect anything but free HD space!
[22:37] <jechid> thank you for your help
[22:37] <hiexpo> demon002_, no it has lots there how to dual boot with windows etc    site is http://www.backtrack-linux.org/ channel is @ #backtrack_linux
[22:37] <jechid> now i just need to recall how i created that monster file
[22:37] <hiexpo> backtrack-linux
[22:37] <jechid> :-)
[22:38] <Chaos2358> zaxonspox, what is locking down going to do? i want the running applications to keep running
[22:38] <demon002_> hiexpo oh ok i was checking the wiki, ill look again. Thanks!
[22:38] <jechid> thanks all
[22:39] <Vogg> howdo ~ any1 know the diff tween: Dev/sda ATA generic & Dev/sda1 Windows[...]\XP (Loader) : what do i choose for multiboot with windows already installed ? thanks
[22:39] <GeamT> salut à tous, j'ai essayé le dernier gimp et je ne le trouve pas à ma convenance. Comment faut il faire pour réinstaller l'ancienne version stable ?
[22:39] <karthick87> how to download a whole website that i can read if offline
[22:39] <zaxonspox> Chaos2358, and they will be running, but protected from "his figners" ("him to watch but he has wandering fingers")
[22:39] <GeamT> tout en gardant les plugins
[22:39] <karthick87> how to download a whole website?So that i can read if offline
[22:40] <goltoof> !fr | GeamT
[22:40] <GeamT> euhh
[22:40] <hiexpo> Chaos2358, that is weird i have do nothing but i still run 9.10 maybe they deleted that op
[22:40] <GeamT> lol ok thanks
[22:40] <joe85> okay well that was a waste of time
[22:40] <Chaos2358> zaxonspox, ok gotcha but those little fingers also like to stick pennyys in the keyboard so i need to be able to close it
[22:41] <goltoof> GeamT,   de rien  :)
[22:41] <Chaos2358> hiexpo before i installed ubuntu on this i had the option running win xp
[22:41] <blue_anna> in a system backup (not /home), do I need to backup anything other than /etc /usr /opt ?
[22:41] <hiexpo> Chaos2358,  i agree that is a good option to have
[22:41] <Dwade09> anyone? know how to fix the sound?
[22:41] <night> goltoof
[22:42] <night> gotoloof
[22:42] <zaxonspox> Chaos2358, do you have a mini button that "catches" the closing lid, or magnes inside of your lid?
[22:42] <aeon-ltd> !tab | night
[22:42] <dancek> blue_anna, some of /var
[22:42] <goltoof> !arabic   | night
[22:42] <Chaos2358> yes but i dont understanp why it wouldnt be there anymore if it is an op in 9.10
[22:42] <Chaos2358> zaxonspox, i have the internal mags.
[22:43] <Jordan_U> joe85: You should install grub to /dev/mapper/pdc_dcgiiaijhg, /dev/mapper/pdc_bbaeihfibd, or /dev/mapper/pdc_baaacbeicb (or all of them).
[22:43] <dancek> blue_anna, to get an idea what each folder contains, see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Filesystem_Hierarchy_Standard
[22:43] <zaxonspox> Chaos2358, you can plug it out :P i did so once, but, one more thing to do
[22:44] <nightcracker> a quick question all, can I put dual boot ubuntu desktop live and ubuntu netbook live on my USB stick, given that my USB stick has the required size? preferably with casper-rw
[22:44] <Dwade09> guys this is weird i turn my sound bar up and down on using the slider near the clock, i always have to use sound pref or alsa mixer . im tired of having to do that how do i fix it perm where all i have to do is use the slider under the volume icon near the clock?
[22:44] <Chaos2358> zaxonspox, plug it out? meaning permanantly disable? not an option i need it to suspend when I AM using it but do nothing when he is using it
[22:44] <zaxonspox> Chaos2358, in gconf-editor, navigate to /apps/gnome-power-manager there is a key "buttons" which contains "lid_sc" and "lid_battery"
[22:44] <blue_anna> dancek, why var?
[22:44] <hiexpo> Chaos2358, they took things away i guess  thats why i have stuck with 9.10
[22:45] <dancek> blue_anna, well, you've got stuff such as APT package state in there
[22:46] <nightcracker> a quick question all, can I put dual boot ubuntu desktop live and ubuntu netbook live on my USB stick, given that my USB stick has the required size? preferably with casper-rw
[22:46] <dancek> blue_anna, also all kinds of server content (databases, web sites etc) reside in var
[22:47] <blue_anna> dancek, ok, thanks ... apt state I guess makes sense .. that is going to be /var/lib I think
[22:47] <Jordan_U> nightcracker: Yes, but you might have a conflict if you want both to be persistant.

[22:52] <Gnea> MrDudle: that's a tough one. check the documentation for it and make sure that the installed SDL lines up with the version it requires

[22:55] <joe85> Jordan_U, yes I'll boot backinto the live CD. It basically said I was trying to write directly to the partition and that was not a GOOD IDEA AT ALL, and was VERY unreliable, and then it said had to pass --force params to get it to take.
[22:55] <hiexpo> mello, so you have ubuntu now is that the system you used to download the 10.10 iso
[22:56] <Jordan_U> joe85: That's because you were installing to a partition rather than the mbr.
[22:56] <mello> no i downloaded ubuntu 10.10 from a win 7 pc

[22:56] <aeon-ltd> The-Jag: pastebin or screenshot
[22:57] <Gnea> joe85: installing a bootloader to the MBR tells the harddrive where and what operating systems to boot from. If the MBR doesn't know about the existance of bootloaders on partitions, it's not going to try to give the option to load them at boottime.

[23:02] <Dwade09> DouweZ,  i done that but i do not see it there
[23:02] <blue_anna> Robinux, you can use nslookup [ip addr] to get the non-local name
[23:02] <DouweZ> Hmm the name isn't very clear
[23:03] <Sia-> no one?
[23:03] <DouweZ> But it should be in there Dwade09
[23:03] <night> goltoof belive i think you open
[23:03] <Dwade09> DouweZ,  i know you know but its not
[23:03] <Robinux> jeez i need someone to point me to a guide on setting up an sshd account so that i can rcp/pscp into it
[23:03] <DouweZ> Dwade09: Then I have absolutely no idea
[23:03] <LoganJRuff> Sia-, I did not see your question. You can repeat yourself by scrolling up using your arrow up key. Please be considerate in repeating yourself and do not spam the chat. =)
[23:03]  * Captain_Intern is away: Away
[23:03] <blue_anna> Sia asks if it is possible to fix a system if you find it is funky after an upgrade
[23:04] <LoganJRuff> Robinux, you might do better to ask in ##linux
[23:04] <blue_anna> which I would like to know too
[23:04] <DouweZ> Format and reinstall?
[23:04] <LoganJRuff> Thank you blue_anna
[23:04] <Dwade09> can someone tell me how ot add my volume control button back ont he bar its not under the add and i cant find it anywhere
[23:04] <Robinux> LoganJRuff, ok
[23:04] <night> good personality goltoof
[23:04] <frW> Anyone that can explain why I am getting all these errors when trying to run apt-get install? http://filipekberg.se/log.txt "dpkg: error processing procps (--configure):" "subprocess installed post-installation script returned error exit status 1"
[23:04] <frW> ideas?
[23:04] <DouweZ> Too drastic perhaps?
[23:04] <Sia-> LoganJRuff, i'm not spamming, your message does't make any sense.
[23:05] <joe85> Jordan_U, http://pastebin.com/CWDegyLV
[23:05] <The-Jag> pls, does anyone have banshee?
[23:05] <night> how old are you goltoof
[23:05] <LoganJRuff> blue_anna, Sia- it depends on the issue. If you have a few broken packages then a repair is as simple as uninstalling and reinstalling the packages. If you find configuration files, etc out of alignment then you might need to reinstall your Ubuntu.
[23:05] <jacksonbrandao_> Alguem
[23:05] <jacksonbrandao_> ja desistalou
[23:05] <jacksonbrandao_> o unity do ubuntu?
[23:05] <MR_Chickhabit> linux mint IRC is useless, isnt nautilus the same on ubuntu and linux mint?
[23:05] <cyberrider> !br
[23:05] <Sia-> LoganJRuff,  its possible to see the upgrade log? that will be better for me
[23:05] <Jordan_U> joe85: You should install grub to /dev/mapper/pdc_dcgiiaijhg, /dev/mapper/pdc_bbaeihfibd, or /dev/mapper/pdc_baaacbeicb (or all of them). *not* to a partition like /dev/mapper/pdc_dcgiiaijgh1.
[23:06] <LoganJRuff> MR_Chickhabit, Nautilus is the same as far as I know
[23:06] <LoganJRuff> Sia-, I will look into that for you. Please give me a minute. =)
[23:06] <blue_anna> Sia-, look for it with this: ls /var/log/dist-upgrade/
[23:06] <joe85> oh right
[23:06] <LoganJRuff> Thanks blue_anna / Sia- please refer to blue_anna's bash command.
[23:07] <joe85> Jordan_U, I tried and it says the same thing
[23:07] <LoganJRuff> I am in Arch and could not remember where Ubuntu keeps it's upgrade logs. =P
[23:07] <Jordan_U> joe85: Please pastebin the exact output anyway.
[23:07] <Sia-> LoganJRuff, :9 yes thnx blue_anna
[23:07] <blue_anna> de nada
[23:08] <zaxonspox> frW try apt-get check
[23:08] <joe85> Jordan_U, to be clear. pdc_dcgiiaijgh1 is wrong but pdc_dcgiiaijgh should work correct?
[23:08] <Jordan_U> joe85: Correct.
[23:08] <frW> zaxonspox, and then?
[23:08] <frW> Still gives me the same errors
[23:08] <zaxonspox> frW what's the Output?
[23:09] <mello> hiexpo: ok checked the md5sum dosent seem to be any problems there
[23:09] <blue_anna> i that not spam?? amazing :D joe85 Jordan_U

[23:09] <karmiclaw1> hey guys can some one help me with fork() ... How do i make the parent check if the child process has exited without have to block it with waitpid()
[23:10] <MR_Chickhabit> is that a no?
[23:11] <MR_Chickhabit> do i even have voice?
[23:11] <Kyle__> How can you install all the netbean plugins for all users in ubuntu?
[23:11] <Zaneo> So I have a dilema, I need to install xubuntu on a computer with no OS, I have a ubuntu live cd, my question is there anyway to install xubuntu from the linux live ubuntu?
[23:11] <Kyle__> apt-cache search netbeans doesn't seem to show any of the plugins.
[23:11] <zaxonspox> frW i would play around procps, try to reinstall it, or remove and install again
[23:11] <blue_anna> karmiclaw1, man waitpid
[23:11] <LoganJRuff> Zaneo, install ubuntu then apt-get install xubuntu-desktop
[23:12] <karmiclaw1> i did waitpid
[23:12] <Jordan_U> Mrcheesenips: Yes.
[23:12] <karmiclaw1> waitpid blocks the parent till the child exits
[23:12] <javier__> #Irc.freenode.net
[23:12] <Zaneo> I read that could be messy, is that true?
[23:12] <karmiclaw1> and it doesnt help if i pass WNOHANG
[23:12] <mello> driving me crazy that ubuntu woont boot, what can be the problem?
[23:12] <blue_anna> do {  w = waitpid(cpid, &status, WUNTRACED | WCONTINUED); }while (!WIFEXITED(status) && !WIFSIGNALED(status)); ...
[23:12] <joe85> Jordan_U, http://pastebin.com/3uYiqK80
[23:12] <blue_anna> karmiclaw1, do {  w = waitpid(cpid, &status, WUNTRACED | WCONTINUED); }while (!WIFEXITED(status) && !WIFSIGNALED(status)); ...
[23:12] <LoganJRuff> Zaneo, it is a little messy, yes. You will need to remove any GNOME apps you are not using.
[23:13] <karmiclaw1> hey thanks i will try that  and let you know
[23:13] <LoganJRuff> Zaneo, my only other suggestion is to get a Xubuntu disc.
[23:13] <Zaneo> Yeah we don't have access to one or we would
[23:13] <blue_anna> karmiclaw1, wait() blocks, waitpid can't, or else the example they give wouldnt be in a while loop
[23:13] <Zaneo> The motherboard refuses to boot from usb
[23:13] <Kyle__> Anyone?  Netbeans in ubuntu?
[23:14] <Jordan_U> joe85: Simple typo. It shoudl be /dev/mapper/pdc_dcgiiaiijhg, not /dev/mapper/pdc_dcgiiaijhg.
[23:14] <Jordan_U> joe85: Use tab completion to be sure you get the filename correct.
[23:15] <frW> zaxonspox, I can't remove procps before those other crap stuff are installed..
[23:15] <Jordan_U> joe85: Whait, let me look over those outputs again.
[23:15] <frW> can i clear apt-get somehow so it forgets to configure those packages?
[23:16] <joe85> Jordan_U, I cannot find my typo but tab completion did complete the installation
[23:16] <zaxonspox> frW apt-get clean / autoclean
[23:16] <Jordan_U> joe85: That was actually my misreading, sorry.
[23:17] <joe85> Jordan_U, anything else I do or just umount and reboot?
[23:17] <Jordan_U> joe85: What is the output of "ls -l /dev/mapper/pdc_dcgiiaijhg" ?
[23:17] <spope> what does it mean when kjournald2 is eating up a lot of processing power?
[23:17] <Jordan_U> joe85: And what version of Ubuntu are you using?
[23:18] <joe85> Jordan_Um, brw-rw---- 1 root disk 252, 0 2010-11-10 23:15 /dev/mapper/pdc_dcgiiaijhg
[23:19] <spope> Jordan_U, how do I find out?
[23:19] <spope> its been awhile since I installed it
[23:19] <joe85> Jordan_U, 10.04
[23:19] <frW> zaxonspox, they still show up 0 upgraded, 1 newly installed, 1 to remove and 0 not upgraded. 16 not fully installed or removed.
[23:20] <joe85> Jordan_U, should I reboot or is there anything else I must do in LiveCD?
[23:20] <Jordan_U> joe85: "/usr/sbin/grub-probe: error: cannot stat `/dev/mapper/pdc_dcgiiaijgh'." is a very odd error to be getting when the file exists.
[23:20] <Thangalin> How do I uninstall Nepomuk, strigi, and akonadi without uninstalling KDE?
[23:21] <joe85> Jordan_U, I don't know why it does that. When I autocomplete it works but I checked the spelling several times and it looked right.
[23:21] <Thangalin> I have already disabled Nepomuk. I would really like to have the programs eliminated. :-)
[23:21] <joe85> Jordan_U, is there anything else I need to do in liveCD?
[23:21] <blue_anna> is there an ubuntu source-dist ?
[23:21] <the_eye_> system freeze in games with ati x700 ubuntu 10.10 ? any help
[23:22] <Jordan_U> joe85: You can try installing the grub packages from 10.10 within the chroot.
[23:22] <zaxonspox> the_eye_, dont use ATI, it is shittin under integrated gfx
[23:22] <the_eye_> its laptop
[23:22] <LoganJRuff> !language | zaxonspox
[23:22] <joe85> Jordan_U, Im going to reboot and see if this works
[23:23] <LoganJRuff> the_eye_, http://www.mail-archive.com/ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com/msg2583897.html
[23:24] <LoganJRuff> the_eye_, With a little Googling I have come to the conclusion that I do not really want an ati x700. =P
[23:24] <xevious> How do I rerun the graphical configuration for a package?
[23:24] <the_eye_> yes this is the bug
[23:24] <the_eye_> :P
[23:24] <histo> Is there a way to tell if i'm connected using 802.11N vs G or B ?
[23:24] <joe85> Jordan_U, I get the same error
[23:25] <LoganJRuff> histo, use iwconfig and it should display what it's using
[23:25] <joe85> "error: no such disk. grub rescue>"
[23:25] <histo> LoganJRuff: it says 802.11bgn
[23:25] <adac> Guys I have a really bad problem. When my notebook runs on batteries then my lan network becomes totally slow. Any ideas?
[23:25] <hiexpo> adac, is because of power management
[23:26] <LoganJRuff> histo, .... this was asked the other day. I am trying to remember. What does your router use?
[23:26] <adac> hiexpo, yes? How can i disable that?
[23:26] <histo> LoganJRuff: it's in mixed mode right now its a N 300Mbps capable router
[23:27] <adac> hiexpo, in the powermanagment I do not see an option for lan
[23:27] <zaxonspox> frW try something linke: apt-get install --reinstall procps
[23:27] <Chunjee> Does anyone know if its possible to extend laptop display cables by cutting soldering a longer cable in? Specifically working with 14G010010602 on eee700 2G Surf.
[23:27] <LoganJRuff> histo, I think it's connecting using N then. IIRC they connect using the highest(?) protocol available. If both your wireless card and your router are N capable then they should both be connecting using that.
[23:27] <hiexpo> adac, go to system >  preferances > power management >
[23:28] <joe85> Jordan_U, I have two hard drives and before I just got a blinking cursor when I'd boot up my Ubuntu drive. Now I get an error that says "error: no such disk. grub rescue"
[23:28] <hiexpo> adac, battery
[23:28] <LoganJRuff> Chunjee, it's called splicing and if you have to ask then you're probably not skilled enough to do it.
[23:28] <DarkStar1> What channle can I go to for tomcat help?
[23:28] <Jordan_U> joe85: Are you trying to dual boot with windows? Because if you're not there's not much reason to use FakeRAID, and FakeRAID is often problematic (as you can see).
[23:28] <adac> hiexpo, I'm there
[23:28] <LoganJRuff> DarkStar1, did you try #tomcat?
[23:28] <frW> zaxonspox, same.. :/
[23:28] <Chunjee> I'm just wondering if it uses copper cable or something specific
[23:28] <Jordan_U> joe85: What is the output of "ls" from the shell that gives you?
[23:28] <DarkStar1> LoganJRuff: I tried #tomcat6 :D
[23:28] <hiexpo> adac, on battery power
[23:29] <joe85> Jordan_U, I have a RAID0 configuration with 3 Caviar Black 750GB hard drives that have my Windows Installation. I have to use the RAID.
[23:29] <trojan_spike> Chunjee, a chop job u mean,, im sure it is,, aslong as u know what your doing.. and its an unused/old laptop
[23:29] <adac> hiexpo, yes
[23:29] <zaxonspox> frW mayby use Synaptic? because apt relays on commandline and procps have with it some problems
[23:29] <hiexpo> select do nothing on all
[23:29] <adac> hiexpo,  But i don't see a LAN option
[23:29] <LoganJRuff> Chunjee, copper will probably work. Did you also ask in #hardware?
[23:30] <joe85> The Ubuntu will go on a 64GB Kingston SSD. I wish I could not use the RAID but there is nothing I can do now.
[23:30] <trojan_spike> joe85, is your raid on-board / or a raid card?
[23:30] <hiexpo> adac, is has nothing to with lan it is saving power
[23:30] <joe85> trojan_spike, it is on-board AMD SB
[23:30] <adac> hiexpo, by making the LAN connection slow?
[23:30] <adac> Well very slow
[23:31] <hiexpo> adac, yes
[23:31] <LoganJRuff> adac, yes
[23:31] <trojan_spike> joe85, check the forum,, using ur m-board type as a reference,, possible drivers needed
[23:31] <adac> this worked before. But since the upgrade it seems to be broken
[23:31] <adac> hiexpo, LoganJRuff
[23:31] <frW> zaxonspox, ok, i've got it installed, seem to lack man on their page.. Is it used same as apt?
[23:31] <LoganJRuff> adac, it cuts power to your ethernet / wireless cards thus making your internet slow and conserving power.
[23:31] <Jordan_U> joe85: Can you run "ls" in the grub rescue shell and tell me the output?
[23:31] <bluethundr> I am attempting to install compile openssh-5.6p1 under ubuntu 10.. but I am getting a zlib.h error http://pastebin.ca/1987633
[23:31] <zaxonspox> frW Synaptic is like a GUI for apt
[23:32] <bluethundr> what ubuntu package has zlib.h?
[23:32] <joe85> Jordan_U, it is blank
[23:32] <Chunjee> Thanks LoganJRuff / trojan_spike , I'll pull the cabling apart a bit and check with #hardware if I have any doubts.
[23:32] <LoganJRuff> Chunjee, good luck!!
[23:32] <frW> zaxonspox, I only got SSH-access
[23:32] <zaxonspox> frW ah soo
[23:32] <bluethundr> also what is the aptitude equivalent of yum whatprovides "*/zlib.h" from CentOS?
[23:32] <Jordan_U> joe85: That would normally suggest a problem with the BIOS.
[23:32] <trojan_spike> :) i'd like to help Chunjee
[23:32] <frW> zaxonspox, Well I am a bit out of ideas really :/
[23:33] <zaxonspox> frW did you read the man apt-get  ?
[23:33] <frW> zaxonspox, yes, anything special that you are reffering too?
[23:34] <Jordan_U> joe85: Try "debug=disk" then "ls".

[23:36] <goltoof> trying to install tor in 10.10   ... no repos for maverick,  just use lucid instead?
[23:36] <adac> hiexpo, LoganJRuff I deselected all. Still it remains slow

[23:37] <ike_> hi I just updated to Maverick and my mouse/keyboard is not working. I tried a mouse that directly connected, but no such luck either. I need help
[23:37] <joe85> Jordan_U, I am trying to move that SSD out of hte RAId

[23:38] <hiexpo> mello, depends on format
[23:38] <goltoof> !patience | ike_
[23:38] <dingurt> In other words, take a number and sit down.
[23:39] <goltoof> dingurt.... kinda redundant,  he might already be sitting
 run sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade
[23:39] <dingurt> ike_, what's the question?
[23:39] <zaxonspox> frW tried this? apt-get -f install procps
[23:39] <ike_> hi I just updated to Maverick and my mouse/keyboard is not working. I tried a mouse that directly connected, but no such luck either. I need help
[23:39] <Tuna> mello: how are your other hds partitioned and what filesystems?
[23:39] <mello> the are formated ntfs
[23:39] <dingurt> ike_, usb or ps/2?
[23:40] <hiexpo> dingurt, no wait 4 someone that knows that can help you
[23:40] <ike_> usb
[23:40] <ike_> and the normal mouse slot
[23:40] <frW> zaxonspox, yes it doesnt work either. :/
[23:40] <isis> does anyone use ubuntu skype here?
[23:40] <x0rs> is there a way to take a snapshot of my driver versions so that I can revert if an upgrade screws things up?
[23:40] <joe85> Jordan_U, debug=all followed by ls is blank
[23:40] <zaxonspox> frW tried this? apt-get --reinstall install procps  ?
[23:40] <mello> Tuna: i found them in disk utility shouldi press create partition? and if so what should i choose?
[23:40] <goltoof> someone here got tor running in 10.10?

[23:40] <zaxonspox> frW tried aptitude?
[23:41] <frW> yep
[23:41] <dingurt> ike_, I would suggest hooking up a PS/2 keyboard with the power off
[23:41] <Tuna> mello: do the drives have data? are they formatted?
[23:41] <mello> Tuna: they are formated
[23:41] <bodwick> isis: problems with skype?
[23:42] <ike_> ok. is there any reason that the UPnP would not work, i did JUST update
[23:42] <hiexpo> sup Tuna
[23:42] <Jordan_U> joe85: That is *very* odd.
[23:42] <bisanthe> hi there, i can't connect any online radio. it says "gstreamer needs some packages". but which packages??
[23:42] <dingurt> ike_, your USB driver may not be loading... check the logs if the keyboard is being recognized
[23:42] <bisanthe> is there anyone who can help me??
[23:42] <Jordan_U> joe85: Can you try installing Ubuntu 10.10, or at least the grub packages from Ubuntu 10.10?
[23:43] <zaxonspox> frW did read thah some1 suggested to move /bin/ps before reinstalling, but it might be risky or maight fail
[23:43] <Tuna> mello: formatted with what filesystem?
[23:43] <ike_> the boot screen recognizes the keyboard
[23:43] <dingurt> ike_, it will say something like:
[23:43] <dingurt> [    0.818241] input: AT Translated Set 2 keyboard as /devices/platform/i8042/serio0/input/input4
[23:43] <frW> zaxonspox, hm..
[23:43] <mello> Tuna: forme windows disks so i think its ntfs
[23:43] <joe85> Jordan_U, I am going to fix my Windows bootmgr and then install Ubuntu on that other drive now that it is not part of the RAID.
[23:44] <zaxonspox> frW try this code: #  chattr -i /bin/ps
[23:44] <zaxonspox> # mv /bin/ps /bin/ps2
[23:44] <zaxonspox> # apt-get -f install procps
[23:44] <dingurt> hmm, since it is USB have you tried hotplugging the keyboard?
[23:44] <hiexpo> !ask \ bisanthe
[23:44] <esl> hi guys...
[23:44] <ike_> i will go try a few things and then come back and report
[23:44] <Tuna> mello: ubuntu should see them
[23:44] <dingurt> well, I would try the PS/2 keyboard first
[23:44] <esl> i have a problem...
[23:44] <dingurt> good luck
[23:45] <dingurt> esl, I have many...
[23:45] <mello> Tuna: hmm weird then, i can see them in disk utility, should i choose format disk or partiotion disk like i would have to do in windows
[23:45] <esl> I'm a programmer
[23:45] <goltoof> dingurt,    but a b*tch ain't one....  amirite?

[23:46] <hiexpo> !ask
[23:46] <esl> could u give me a some help?
[23:46] <Tuna> mello: if you have no data you want to save you can format them. if you want windows to be able to see the disks they have to be fat32 or ntfs. if not go with ext4

[23:48] <frW> zaxonspox, same shit :/
[23:49] <blue_anna> how do I check the current runlevel

[23:50] <zschallz> Hi... when I run sudo iptables -t nat -A POSTROUTING -s 192.168.1.0/24 -o eth0 -j MASQUERADE and then sudo iptables --list, the rule isn't listed (I guess because it wasn't created). Could someone please help me figure out why?
[23:50] <frW> zaxonspox, hehe yes I do :)
[23:50] <zschallz> I've enabled ip_forward.
[23:50] <Typh> what does it mean if I don't have bold in gnome-terminal? Font is Monaco, and bold works fine on other systems.

[23:52] <frW> zaxonspox, thanks a lot for the patience and help!
[23:52] <sarge1221> Hey just curious but is there away to fix a flash drive that won't start up besides just restarting ubuntu?
[23:52] <blue_anna> thanks
[23:52] <holocene> on 10.10, when I open my Place|Desktop, the brasero appl launches and asks if I want to burn a disk. How do I stop this?
[23:52] <hipitihop> I'm pretty sure I'm OT here, but can someone point me to a channel where I can ask questions about disabling ports on a router's WAN IF
[23:52] <dingurt> sarge1221:  what do you mean "fix"?
[23:53] <x0rs> does anyone know a way to take a snapshot of my driver versions so that I can revert if an upgrade screws things up? Or should I just ignore automatic updates for my home workstation?
[23:53] <sarge1221> dingurt: make it connect to the OS so i can browse the files without restarting ubuntu everytime it won't load up for whatever reason. "fix"
[23:53] <dingurt> sarge1221:  have you tried hotplugging it?
[23:53] <sarge1221> dingurt: what is hotplugging it?
[23:54] <yagoo> x0rs, you can choose to keep your kernel version & modules.. installing a new kernel is a positive choice.. you don't need to replace your existing kernel
[23:54] <retfar> sarge1221: mount /dev/sda? if it's in /etc fstab
[23:54] <dingurt> sarge1221:  unplugging it and plugging it back in
[23:54] <x0rs> yagoo: oh, so if updates screw something up I just boot to my old kernel?
[23:54] <dingurt> sarge1221:  if that works, then do what retfar says...
[23:55] <sarge1221> dingurt: that does no good it auto shuts itself off everytiem i do that and the only thing that fixes the problem is to restart ubuntu. Strangely it is like ubuntu linux doesn't register as it being there.
[23:55] <dingurt> sarge1221:  i dunno man... what does /var/log/messages say when it shuts off?
[23:56] <sarge1221> dingurt: what exactly from terminal do i need to type from terminal to get the results?
[23:56] <RedSingularity> How can i reinstall the x server in lucid?
[23:56] <hiexpo> he told ya
[23:57] <retfar> sarge1221: less /etc/fstab look for the dev if it not there look aaaaat /etc/mtab
[23:57] <dingurt> sarge1221:  tail /var/log/messages
[23:57] <dingurt> sarge1221:  when is shows the drive is off
[23:57] <esl> do u know "configure: error: cannot find output from flex; giving"
[23:59] <sarge1221> dingurt: here is results> http://pastebin.com/zWBjJHvJ
[23:59] <goltoof> whats a good cli anonymity test?  if there is such a thing
