[00:00] <Wicked> (its openssh-server)...but you should really learn how to use apt
[00:01] <ronghail> thank you
[00:01] <Sonsee> Ok. Why does compiz --replace need sudo in Kubuntu anyway?
[00:01] <neurochrome> Jordan_U, guest menu is fine...
[00:01] <CrazyK> I'm trying to install Ubuntu x86-64 10.10 on my windows 7 machine with an intel dualcore t4400 using VirtualBox....I have a 64-bit image of ubuntu, and 64-bit virtual box, running 64-bit windows 7....when i try to boot up the image to install a virtual machine it says i dont have an x86 based processsor that i have an i686????

[00:02] <neurochrome> Sonsee, that is weird...
[00:02] <ikonia> CrazyK: that is a known issue with vbox - check the vbox forums
[00:02] <joshy> ikonia: error from evolution: unable to authenticate to IMAP server
[00:02] <Freeze_Off_My_Kn> ikonia, What about the latest and the greatest flashplayer for linux @ http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/
[00:02] <CrazyK> excellent, what should i search for
[00:02] <Sonsee> neurochrome: any suggestions?

[00:02] <ikonia> Freeze_Off_My_Kn: ....is not supported
[00:02] <neurochrome> Sonsee, is this to get it to run on startup?
[00:02] <ikonia> msseu: what do you need/want
[00:02] <Sonsee> neurochrom: yes
[00:03] <Freeze_Off_My_Kn> ikonia, but I installed the flashplayer deb from that site it worked
[00:03] <neurochrome> Sonsee, have you tried "compiz --replace &"
[00:03] <ikonia> Freeze_Off_My_Kn: so ?
[00:03] <msseu> ikonia: sorry
[00:04] <Jordan_U> Sonsee: It should not, and you should not ever run compiz with sudo.
[00:04] <msseu> was inadvertently
[00:04] <Sonsee> neurochrome: if I run it without sudo it crashes and asks to send a bug
[00:04] <Sonsee> what should I do, then?
[00:05] <joshy> ikonia: to config it for MS Outlook i have to take the internal server adress and then calling the server with rpc-procedures over http
[00:05] <joshy> ikonia: do you have any suggestions / web-pages?
[00:05] <neurochrome> Sonsee, from the terminal?
[00:05] <ikonia> joshy: I just use the evolution exchange menu
[00:05] <ikonia> joshy: you asked before and I've said no, I never have  problem with it
[00:05] <Sonsee> neurochrome: yes

[00:06] <joshy> ikonia: ;(
[00:06] <matteusbarreto> ?
[00:06] <matteusbarreto> help
[00:06] <neurochrome> Sonsee, in a terminal you should run  "compiz --replace & exit"
[00:06] <ikonia> matteusbarreto: ask a question then
[00:06] <a931bw> Hey all
[00:06] <a931bw> What is mpd?
[00:06] <neurochrome> Sonsee, does it give any error, have you checked your logs?
[00:06] <joshy> ikonia: which url do you use? dns-name/owa? or only dns-name? Which Security do you use?

[00:07] <ron_> Can anybody help me get red5 to work? its not sending out replies when you access it http://rons-forum.co.uk:5080/demos/port_tester.html
[00:07] <Sonsee> neurochrome: yes, it crashes. WIthout sudo. WITH sudo it works fine.
[00:07] <shawnboy> yeats, FIXED. I don't know why that happened. I thought that was just a windows thing (having to mysteriously reinstall things) but it all works now.
[00:07] <neurochrome> Sonsee, check your logs for errors
[00:07] <Sonsee> kubuntu 10.10, upgraded from 10.04
[00:07] <yeats> shawnboy: sometimes packages can get corrupted - glad you could fix it!
[00:07] <shawnboy> yeats, I simply uninstalled ATI's proprietary driver Catalyst 10-10 then reinstalled it.
[00:08] <shawnboy> yeats, anyway thanks again for responding to me.
[00:08] <yeats> shawnboy: great - happy to help
[00:08] <shawnboy> yeats, sometimes I just need a push.
[00:08] <yeats> ;-)
[00:08] <shawnboy> bye all.
[00:08] <Sonsee> neurochrome: oh, come on !!! why does it work with & exit ?? )))))) lol I did it without & exit
[00:08] <joshy> ikonia: Eine direkte Anbindung von Evolution an Exchange 2007 per OWA ist aktuell noch nicht möglich. Ich denke aber, dass die Entwickler sehr bald hier ein Update nachschieben werden. (Stand 07. Jun 09, Ubuntu 9.04)
[00:09] <Sonsee> thanks, anyway
[00:09] <ikonia> joshy: English please.
[00:09] <neurochrome> Sonsee, lol so it works with that command I said? ;0)
 yes !
[00:10] <neurochrome> Sonsee, if you add the command to Startup Applications it doesn't need the exit (because it is not run in a terminal then)
[00:10] <joshy> A direct connection from Evolution to Exchange 2007 via OWA is not currently possible. But I think that the developers will soon follow up on an update here. (Release 07 Jun 09, Ubuntu 9.04) (c) by google

[00:10] <ikonia> joshy: 2003 and 2010 as I said earlier
[00:10] <neurochrome> Sonsee, the command to run in Startup Apps is "compiz --replace"
[00:10] <shelliumTV> hi
[00:11] <shelliumTV> i cannot mount cd
[00:11] <joshy> which security settings?
[00:11] <shelliumTV> i cannot mount cd, what is the solution
[00:11] <DasEi> shelliumTV: let's have a look
[00:11] <Sonsee> neurochrome: but it needs an end (&) I guess ;) because without it doesn't work.
[00:11] <DasEi> shelliumTV: made a mountdir ?
[00:11] <Four_Loko_Mafia> joshy, Kannst du bitte gehen lecken eines Esels Bälle
[00:11] <shelliumTV> no
[00:11] <DasEi> shelliumTV: sudo mkdir /media/cd

[00:12] <AudeDai> sorry
[00:12] <shelliumTV> yes
[00:12] <shelliumTV> its a laptop
[00:12] <Sonsee> thank you ;)
[00:13] <DasEi> shelliumTV: sudo mount /dev/sr0  /media/cd
[00:13] <Four_Loko_Mafia> joshy, Mein Arsch tut weh vom Sitzen auf diesem Stuhl für eine lange Zeit
[00:13] <joshy> Four_Loko_Mafia: ?
[00:13] <neurochrome> Sonsee, the & is only needed in the terminal, to continue the process, the reason you use exit is to close the terminal, without using exit you kill compiz when you want it to continue
[00:13] <DasEi> shelliumTV: and please put nick in front, if you answer to someone :)
[00:13] <crawler> AudeDai: your whole question doesn't seem to fit, please paste it here then give us the link: http://paste.ubuntu.com/
[00:13] <Four_Loko_Mafia> joshy, are you from Germany ?
[00:13] <DasEi> shelliumTV: cd /media/cd && ls
[00:14] <joshy> Four_Loko_Mafia: Nope
[00:14] <DasEi> shelliumTV: can see cd now ?
[00:14] <Four_Loko_Mafia> joshy, no problem
[00:14] <AudeDai> Crawler: http://paste.ubuntu.com/534085/
[00:14] <shelliumTV> DasEI: it says ; mount: mount point /media/cd does not exis
[00:14] <joshy> Four_Loko_Mafia: But I understand what are you saying
[00:14] <DasEi> shelliumTV: see above
[00:14] <ikonia> shelliumTV: /cdrom is normal
[00:15] <DasEi> shelliumTV: sudo mkdir /media/cd
[00:15] <tripelb> crawler, thanks.
[00:15] <Four_Loko_Mafia> joshy, huh ?
[00:15] <crawler> tripelb: got it working?
[00:15] <DasEi> ikonia: cdrom0 here
[00:16] <shelliumTV> DasEI: done
[00:16] <joshy> Four_Loko_Mafia: What do you want to say?
[00:16] <DasEi> shelliumTV: sudo mount /dev/sr0  /media/cd
[00:16] <DasEi> shelliumTV: cd /media/cd && ls
[00:16] <Four_Loko_Mafia> joshy, Absolutely nothing at the moment
[00:17] <shelliumTV> DasEI: done
[00:17] <tripelb> crawler, et al. This page you recommended contains some kind of "patch" I cound figure out how to use or since it's from 2008, if it might jam up my entire system. This is a big bad bruise in the usability of Ubuntu.
[00:17] <DasEi> shelliumTV: so cd is visible now ?
[00:17] <sharma> Can anyone tell me how to install Metasploit in Ubuntu 10.04

[00:17] <joshy> Four_Loko_Mafia: Dann is ja gut
[00:17] <tripelb> crawler, et al. This page you recommended contains some kind of "patch" I cound figure out how to use or since it's from 2008, if it might jam up my entire system. This is a big bad bruise in the usability of Ubuntu.  (the link was -- http://brainstorm.ubuntu.com/item/12628/)
[00:17] <ikonia> joshy: English please
[00:18] <shelliumTV> DasEI: Nope
[00:18] <joshy> ikonia: And from Four_Loko_Mafia it's allowed?
[00:18] <DasEi> shelliumTV: but a cd is inserted ?
[00:18] <crawler> tripelb: well, the second solution from gekko looks promising (installing nautilus-actions)
[00:18] <ikonia> joshy: I didn't see him not speak english
[00:18] <shelliumTV> DasEI: yes it is
[00:18] <sharma> cAN ANYONE TELL ME HOW TO INSTALL mETASPLOIT IN UBUNTU 10.04
[00:19] <joshy> [01:13] <Four_Loko_Mafia> joshy, Mein Arsch tut weh vom Sitzen auf diesem Stuhl für eine lange Zeit
[00:19] <ikonia> shelliumTV: I can tell you how to get yourself ignored for typing in caps in a channel
[00:19] <DasEi> shelliumTV: cd /media/cd && ls   , l= lowercase L
[00:19] <ikonia> shelliumTV: sorry - not you
[00:19] <a_dude> Can someone please confirm if the CoreDumpDirectory
[00:19] <ikonia> sharma: lose the caps
[00:19] <a_dude> Apache directive is supposed to work in 10.04?
[00:19] <crawler> tripelb: did you try that (what gekko suggested)?
[00:19] <sharma> innkonia: kk buddy
[00:20] <DasEi> sharma: not native , look at w3af
[00:20] <Sofus2004> I want to mount a windows partition on my linux machine on a non root user. I can do this fine, but when the directory is mounted I cant write to this directory unless I sudo the files in. Is it not possible just to do this with normal rights?
[00:20] <tripelb> crawler, that's what I was referring to. Will look at it again. I didnt undersanbd taht it did that.
[00:20] <DasEi> sharma: or ask in bt-channel, wrong chan here
[00:20] <DasEi> !compile > sharma
[00:21] <treble54> when I suspend my laptop, it usually wakes up right after it gets shaken or bumped; is there a way to prevent this?
[00:21] <tripelb> crawler, I dont see a commment from gekko here
[00:21] <treble54> (besides not bumping or shaking it)
[00:21] <DasEi> shelliumTV: mount        > does this show the cd mounted ?
[00:21] <tripelb> crawler, oh on comments on that page
[00:21] <TimothyA> how do I prevent users to list the contents in /home ?
[00:22] <a_dude> I have a new Ubuntu 10.04 server, and certain OpenX urls (php ad script) seems to trigger an apache segementation fault.  I'm trying to pin down the cause for that segfault, does anyone have any tips?  Thanks!
[00:22] <ikonia> TimothyA: change the permissions
[00:22] <crawler> tripelb: yes, sorry i should have been more clear
[00:22] <tripelb> crawler, oh on the comments part. will look
[00:22] <TimothyA> to what? setting it to 0750 makes the directory entirely inaccessible
[00:22] <TimothyA> and all its subdirectories
[00:22] <G1Bs0N> chmod
[00:22] <shelliumTV> DasEI: yes it is
[00:22] <G1Bs0N> how
[00:22] <TimothyA> including the user's own directory
[00:22] <AudeDai> Is it okay to ask my question again?
[00:22] <bluethundr> does anyone know the concise dpkg command on ubuntu that manages dependencies, for example dependencies for openssh? ( the senior SA mentioned it briefly and it is not apt-get or aptitude) :)
[00:22] <DasEi> shelliumTV: so cd there, and list it, or go via places graphically
[00:23] <ikonia> bluethundr: what do you mean "manage"
[00:23] <treble54> are there any options (or a means of prevention) in preventing my laptop coming out of suspension because of a physical bump?
[00:23] <bluethundr> as in automatically install the packages that openssh needs if you were to build it from source
[00:23] <Ebrahem> My system keeps freezing/rebooting at random times and I haven't been able to find a pattern. Is there any log file I should keep an eye on?
[00:23] <G1Bs0N> ??\\
[00:23] <G1Bs0N> sshh
[00:23] <ikonia> bluethundr: that's nothing to do with dpkg or apt
[00:24] <ikonia> bluethundr: they are for pre-existing packages
[00:24] <bluethundr> ikonia, ok understood
[00:24] <G1Bs0N> battery nooooooooooo
[00:24] <bluethundr> G1Bs0N, that might be a memory issue.. you might want to keep an eye on things with top and/or free -m
[00:24] <ikonia> G1Bs0N: what do you need help with ?
[00:24] <treble54> are there any options (or a means of prevention) in preventing my laptop coming out of suspension because of a physical bump?
[00:24] <G1Bs0N> brb a lot
[00:25] <G1Bs0N> smb shares
[00:25] <G1Bs0N> using cifs and unicode
[00:25] <TimothyA> come on, this should be an easy question to answer; how do I prevent the user from listing the contents in /home, but still allow the user to access their own user directory?
[00:25] <ikonia> G1Bs0N: ask questions then
[00:25] <Four_Loko_Mafia> Ebrahem, type cat /etc/lsb-release
[00:25] <Four_Loko_Mafia>  copy and paste to the screen
[00:25] <ikonia> TimothyA: I've answered it, change the permissions on /home
[00:25] <TimothyA> to what?
[00:25] <Sonsee> ok, now the emerald --replace command does not start. It gives a seg. f. of KDE decorator. The command is in script which is in .kde/Autostart. Compiz starts just fine.
[00:25] <ikonia> TimothyA: owner only would work on the sub dirs
[00:26] <Ebrahem> Four_Loko_Mafia, maverick
[00:26] <TimothyA> ....and what would that be? 777? :P
[00:26] <crawler> tripelb: i just tried it, and it works.  the only thing you need to change is instead of parameter=0 it needs to be parameter=%d.
[00:26] <ikonia> TimothyA: 700
[00:26] <TimothyA> access denied
[00:26] <DasEi> bluethundr: apt does itself; else can view : apt-cache depends package_name
[00:26] <ikonia> TimothyA: you need to use sudo
[00:26] <Four_Loko_Mafia> Ebrahem, Go with 10.04 a stable release
[00:26] <TimothyA> ...I meant for the user
[00:26] <bluethundr> DasEi, ok thanks
[00:26] <TimothyA> he still can't access his own directory
[00:26] <ikonia> TimothyA: what command did you use
[00:26] <TimothyA> chmod 700 /home
[00:26] <TimothyA>  chmod 700 /home
[00:27] <xrdodrx> Anybody have a fix for gnibbles in 10.10?
[00:27] <ikonia> TimothyA: the owner of /home is root - that won't work, I said the subdirectories
[00:27] <TimothyA> .... the problem is that I don't want to show what directories there are in /home
[00:27] <DasEi> shelliumTV: cd open ?
[00:27] <TimothyA> at all
[00:27] <Ebrahem> Four_Loko_Mafia, I highly suspect it is a hardware issue
[00:27] <joshy> ikonia: normal imap working; exchange not...
[00:27] <ikonia> TimothyA: remove execute permissions from /home then
[00:27] <_jay> I have encountered a repeatable bug- some websites cause firefox to make my screen black and log me out, if someone is brave enough to confirm, or point me in the direction of a error log that would be great
[00:27] <shelliumTV> no
[00:27] <shelliumTV> its ok
[00:27] <TimothyA> ....I did, and then people can't get in their own folder
[00:27] <shelliumTV> thnx for help
[00:28] <ikonia> TimothyA: what permissions did you set it to ?
[00:28] <Ebrahem> Four_Loko_Mafia, regardless of the os, this keeps happening (livecd, 10.04, 10.10, windows 7)
[00:28] <jrib> TimothyA: give people ONLY execute permission...
[00:28] <DasEi> TimothyA: configure groups, set -r for unwanted users
[00:28] <moumou> exit
[00:29] <TimothyA> you could have just said 711 ...
[00:29] <jrib> TimothyA: 771...
[00:29] <TimothyA> I did 711 and everything still works
[00:30] <TimothyA> why would group need 7 as well?
[00:30] <ikonia> TimothyA: show me the output of "id" for the user you are testing with
[00:30] <ikonia> TimothyA: it doesn't
[00:30] <jrib> TimothyA: the only suggestion I can give you is that you take some time to understand the difference
[00:30] <ikonia> TimothyA: 711 - the group is execute only
[00:30] <TimothyA> then I'm wondering why jrib just suggested 771
[00:31] <TimothyA> as the original permissions were 755
[00:31] <jrib> TimothyA: I didn't, I suggested you understand the difference
[00:31] <ikonia> TimothyA: mistake/example
[00:31] <phillipsjk> _jay: sounds like you are running out of memory to me. As a stop-gap you can try disabling JavaScript.
[00:31] <_jay> I have 8 gig of ram tho...
[00:31] <TimothyA> I think I was confusing d with x then in that case
[00:31] <jrib> TimothyA: huh?
[00:31] <TimothyA> nevermind
[00:32] <_jay> I did uninstall java tho- it is the scripts that are doing it
[00:32] <jrib> TimothyA: anyway it doesn't matter much what you set as the group permissions since it's root:root.  You should just make it 751 (I thought the original permissions were 775)
[00:32] <_jay> with noscript running it doesn't crash
[00:32] <phillipsjk> _jay why the plural then? sounds like it would be one specific website otherwise.
[00:32] <TimothyA> 775 sounds like a bad idea to me
[00:32] <_jay> well, its been happening recently
[00:32] <_jay> also while viewing a pdf in firefox
[00:33] <jrib> TimothyA: why? who do you expect to be in the root group? :P
[00:33] <ikonia> TimothyA: why ?
[00:33] <crawler> tripelb: another thing i forgot to mention, is you must restart nautilus before the :Open containing folder" will show up in the context menu.  do this by pressing Alt+F2 and typinig killall nautilus.  then press Alt+F2 again and type nautilus.
[00:33] <ikonia> TimothyA: I think you need to go and have a read about permissions
[00:33] <STF> Can someone of you tell me a good site to learn linux/unix scripting?
[00:33] <phillipsjk> _jay. since about version 6 of the Adboe reader, PDFs have supported JavaScript....
[00:33] <_jay> but I have pinpointed a guilty site for testing
[00:33] <jrib> !bash | STF
[00:33] <Mooner85> i have iptables enable with INPUT DROP policy. i want to serve ftp trought proftpd and i open up port 21. But it still doesnt work. the proftp config are fine, i can access my ftp inside the machine with ftp://127.0.0.1 but i can not access it throu another machine. can anyone help me?
[00:33] <ikonia> STF: this is ubuntu support, not generic linux, check the web out
[00:33] <_jay> interesting
[00:33] <YBH_1> But do U Luv me TSA Dude?http://www.drudgereport.com/tsa3.jpg
[00:33] <bluethundr> it was apt-get build-dep that I was looking for :)
[00:33] <jrib> !ot | YBH_1
[00:34] <bluethundr> is there a variation of that which does NOT actually install anything but just tells you what the deps are?
[00:34] <_jay> so, I guess just keep noscript running in these cases
[00:34] <jrib> bluethundr: apt-cache show
[00:34] <tripelb> crawler, I tried, didnt work. Then I saw his edit. --- ooops I see what you said. but gekko said his parameters were wrong and I did NOT understand what s/he was telling me to do
[00:34] <jrib> bluethundr: or apt-cache depends even
[00:34] <histo> bluethundr: apt-cache showpkg packagename
[00:34] <phillipsjk> _jay have you posted a link to the site in question?
[00:34] <ikonia> bluethundr: deps for the package, or the building of the package
[00:34] <_jay> I can pm it to you
[00:34] <crawler> tripelb: ok, you have nautilus-actions installed yet?
[00:34] <jrib> ikonia: good call
[00:35] <bluethundr> I am building a package and am attempting to write the changelog
[00:35] <Mooner85> i have iptables enable with INPUT DROP policy. i want to serve ftp trought proftpd and i open up port 21. But it still doesnt work. the proftp config are fine, i can access my ftp inside the machine with ftp://127.0.0.1 but i can not access it throught another machine. can anyone help me? what should i do?
[00:35] <jrib> bluethundr: so just read debian/control, no?
[00:35] <crawler> tripelb: all he was saying was instead of put 0 in the parameter box, put %d instead
[00:35] <ikonia> bluethundr: the package deps are what you want then, you're building the package,
[00:35] <tripelb> crawler, to be cler I tred it again after the killall
[00:35] <tripelb> OK will do it again crawler with %d
[00:36] <bluethundr> I patched a version of openssh-5.6p1 that I downloaded from the openssh site and patched it with the openssh-lpk patch which stores RSA keps in an openLDAP directory
[00:36] <bluethundr> and am attempting to build a package for ubuntu hardy 9.10
[00:36] <jrib> bluethundr: no question in there :)
[00:37] <jrib> bluethundr: also ubuntu hardy is 8.04, 9.10 is karmic
[00:37] <bluethundr> heh.. just stating my goal there. I am attempting to write the changelog for the ubuntu package I am creating and need to know the deps for openssh
[00:37] <bluethundr> :)
[00:37] <jrib> bluethundr: they're in the control file, though I'm not sure why you need to know them
[00:38] <jrib> bluethundr: are you creating an openssh package from scratch instead of patching the existing one for some reason?
[00:38] <bluethundr> jrib ok thanks.. I am a little more used to centOS packaging. this is my first attempt at a debian style package
[00:39] <bluethundr> jrib I did a custom install of openssh-5.6p1 that includes the openssh-LPK patch and am attempting to turn it into an ubuntu package
[00:39] <tripelb> crawler. Still no. I looked in the r-click submenu and under all the menus. I used the system->preferences. did the kllall. restarte nautilus, did a search, chose a file and r-clicked, etc.  Now what can I try?  10.04
[00:39] <jrib> bluethundr: you should just patch the existing openssh package
[00:40] <bluethundr> yes but there is no package of 5.6p1 :)
[00:40] <jrib> bluethundr: but you can upgrade the existing package
[00:41] <jrib> !packaging > bluethundr
[00:41] <bluethundr> thanks jrib
[00:42] <jrib> bluethundr: there's also #ubuntu-packaging and #ubuntu-motu that can help you with specific questions
[00:42] <tripelb> crawler Isnt there a pastebin for a screenshot?
[00:42] <bluethundr> jrib, excellent stuff thanks for the tip!
[00:42] <crawler> tripelb: no, but here is mine: http://img593.imageshack.us/img593/5023/screenshoteditactionope.png
[00:43] <jsimancas> Hi people
[00:43] <Hilikus> how's video support for an intel videocard? i'm thinking of getting a MOBO with an integrated intel videocard
[00:44] <crawler> tripelb: that's it...those three boxes should be filled in like so.  then restart nautilus, and if you right-click any file you should have a context menu item called "Open containing folder".  if not, i can't help you..maybe it's because i'm still running jaunty
[00:44] <swim> is anybody here very proficient in virtual machine???
[00:44] <histo> Hilikus: i'd get something wtih nvidia if it was me.
[00:45] <Jordan_U> Hilikus: As long as it's not poulsbo (which I think is only used in netbooks) intel cards have good support.
[00:45] <jolaren> ls
[00:45] <histo> Jordan_U: I don't think they have good support
[00:46] <Jordan_U> histo: How so? They may not be high performance but their open source drivers are usually pretty solid.
[00:46] <histo> Jordan_U: I'd prefer to go with a manufacturer that actively develops drivers for linux personally
[00:46] <tripelb> crawler mine is VERY different. Heh. Here it is. http://picpaste.com/gekko_and_n-actions-iFVw6v7q.png
[00:47] <Hilikus> i don't care for 3d stuff. i mostly use it for mythtv
[00:47] <Jordan_U> histo: Intel does. They develop the open source drivers, and release full specifications. They have been doing so for far longer than ATI has, and nvidia still refuses to even give specs (though their proprietary drivers are pretty good).
[00:48] <G1Bs0N> im following http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=288534  to mount smb
[00:48] <G1Bs0N> its not working
[00:48] <Jordan_U> histo: Intel contributes *a lot* of code not only to support their cards but to improve the linux graphics stack as a whole.
[00:48] <tripelb> crawler, yours is so much more clear.
[00:48] <crawler> tripelb: ok, for context label put: Open containing folder - that's all you need on the first page.
[00:49] <dennda> If only they produced decent graphics cards supporting newer OpenGL versions properly... :-)
[00:49] <tripelb> crawler, got it
[00:49] <crawler> tripelb: then for the command (in the command tab) you'll need to put nautilus - and for parameters, you need %d
[00:51] <CrazyK> I had a problem earlier because im trying to install ubuntu 64-bit 10.10 on windows 7 64bit host with an intel t4400 dual-core processor and was referred to the forums but no solutions have worked =|
[00:51] <Sofus2004> How come I cant write to a windows share with a user, but I can with my root account?
[00:51] <DasEi> CrazyK : wubi/dual or vm ?
[00:52] <CrazyK> vbox
[00:52] <CrazyK> sorry
[00:52] <CrazyK> virtualbox
[00:52] <histo>   Sofus2004 depends how it is being mounted
[00:52] <histo> !fstab | Sofus2004
[00:52] <DasEi> CrazyK : haven't tried win 7, where do are you stuck ?
[00:52] <yeats> CrazyK: try enabling virtualization in your BIOS settings
[00:52] <CrazyK> When I try to boot the ubuntu image, it says it detects my processor as i686 instead of x86
[00:52] <CrazyK> wi tried
[00:52] <Sofus2004> histo: sudo mount -t smbfs //192.168.1.118/Linux/ /home/windows/ -o username=Guest,password=
[00:53] <CrazyK> theres no virtualization setting in bios
[00:53] <CrazyK> and i just updated it to the latest bios version
[00:53] <CrazyK> flashed it etc
[00:53] <CrazyK> =|
[00:53] <Sofus2004> histo: My user can write to that dir normally
[00:53] <yeats> CrazyK: are you sure your processor supports virtualization?
[00:53] <DasEi> CrazyK: host is 64bit os, and in seetings enabled Vt/dualcore ?
[00:54] <CrazyK> in settings of what?
[00:54] <histo> Sofus2004: Guest will own it
[00:54] <coldfire> heh
[00:54] <Sofus2004> histo: So I should make a user on my windows machine that has a user called the same as on my linux machine?
[00:55] <DasEi> CrazyK: vbox, maybe ask in their channel, that's a vboxquestion
[00:55] <histo> Sofus2004: no the username=   line is the issue
[00:55] <histo> Sofus2004: unless you login name on the linux machine is Guest
[00:55] <DasEi> CrazyK: #vbox
[00:55] <CrazyK> DasEi, it says my processor doesnt have vt-x, am I doomed for ANY kind of virtualization
[00:55] <Sofus2004> histo: Oh. I thought that was meant for the login to the windows machine.
[00:55] <CrazyK> or can i use wubi/vm etc
[00:55] <G1Bs0N> is there a way to get to the samdatabase
[00:56] <yeats> CrazyK: not any kind, but try running 32-bit Ubuntu
[00:56] <histo> Sofus2004: nope
[00:56] <DasEi> CrazyK: kinda processor ?
[00:56] <histo> Sofus2004: that will specify the user that owns the mount and can write to it
[00:56] <CrazyK> t4400
[00:56] <CrazyK> intel
[00:56] <G1Bs0N> say that again
[00:56] <DasEi> CrazyK: strange then , either ask in #vbox or just use a 32bit ubuntu
[00:56] <G1Bs0N> i think it is something easy i am overlooking
[00:57] <CrazyK> well i kinda wanted the 64bit ubuntu because im going to be developing ruby on rails apps and sites on there :(
[00:57] <yeats> CrazyK: there's really not a whole lot of difference in the user experience between 32 and 64 bit
[00:57] <CrazyK> alrighty, thanks for the help guys
[00:57] <yeats> CrazyK: esp. in a VM
[00:57] <CrazyK> thanks guys
[00:57] <Sofus2004> histo: It mounts fine with my username but I still cant make any files
[00:58] <Sofus2004> And the dir switches from my user to root when I mount it.
[00:58] <tripelb> crawler: thanks so much. I have to put this to bd now. I've copied all of this into a text file so that I will have it all. Again TY
[00:58] <crawler> tripelb: ok, good luck
[00:59] <histo> Sofus2004: whats the group set as? check the moutn with ls -l
[00:59] <G1Bs0N> how do i edit my samba so i can add users and pass
[01:00] <Sofus2004> When it is not mounted: drwxr-xr-x 2 sofus sofus 4096 2010-11-19 01:16 windows  And when it is mounted: drwxr-xr-x 1 root    root       0 2010-11-19 01:01 windows
[01:00] <histo> G1Bs0N: /etc/samba/smb.conf
[01:00] <histo> Sofus2004: what is the command you are using to mount it?
[01:01] <Sofus2004> histo: sudo mount -t smbfs //192.168.1.118/Linux/ /home/downloads/windows/ -o username=sofus,password=
[01:01] <G1Bs0N> k
[01:02] <G1Bs0N> hmm put that in conf?
[01:02] <G1Bs0N> or fstab
[01:02] <histo> Sofus2004: sudo mount -t smbfs //192.168.1.118/Linux /home/downloads/windows -o uid=1000,gid=100
[01:03] <Sofus2004> histo: That did it! Mind explaining what the error was?
[01:03] <histo> Sofus2004: also you should be using cifs instead of smbfs.
[01:03] <histo> Sofus2004: that just specified your user uid=1000 and group users by the gid=100
[01:04] <histo> Sofus2004: not sure why the other way wasn't worky maybe a type or something.
[01:04] <histo> Sofus2004: s/type/typo
[01:04] <AegNuddel> Is there anyone that can suggest good check-printing software for ubuntu?
[01:04] <xrt> 早安
[01:04] <Sofus2004> histo: perhaps, oh well. Thanks alot for the time, really apreciated.
[01:04] <G1Bs0N> i am using cifs
[01:04] <xrt> 有说中文的吗
[01:05] <histo> AegNuddel: looks like kmymoney can do it in kde.  I'm sure the accounting software can aswell
[01:05] <crawler> !cn | xrt
[01:05] <histo> AegNuddel: gnucash or grisbi
[01:06] <G1Bs0N> hmm
[01:06] <AegNuddel> I have looked at gnucash before... not looking for a financial manager, just the printing software. Would making a custom template in glabel work
[01:07] <xrt> 中文频道是什么阿
[01:07] <Hilikus> if i get mobo with an intel videocard that has an HDMI work can I expect the HDMI output to work with ubuntu?
[01:07] <histo> AegNuddel: well if you make your own template no need for all the other stuff.
[01:07] <Sean93> how do i test my internal network speed??
[01:07] <histo> Hilikus: yes the only thing i've had issues with is sound over hdmi
[01:07] <AegNuddel> histo, will just have to figure out the measurements then :)
[01:08] <Hilikus> histo: i see. it has optical audio so worst case i can use that
[01:08] <histo> AegNuddel: yeap and be prepaired to adjust them.
[01:08] <histo> Hilikus: some people don't have issues thoug. I would search for the mobo you are thinking of getting along with ubuntu in google or the forums.  See if any people are haivng issues.
[01:09] <crawler> Sean93: see netio: http://freshmeat.net/projects/netio/
[01:09] <Arteymis> Hello :)

[01:10] <ubuntuguy> Hello
[01:10] <ubuntuguy> I need help
[01:11] <Arteymis> What's your problem?
[01:11] <ubuntuguy> Hello
[01:11] <ubuntuguy> Hm
[01:11] <ubuntuguy> I wanted to know how to remove windows xp from ubuntu dual boot
[01:11] <Arteymis> You mean delete win xp?
[01:11] <ubuntuguy> Yeah
[01:11] <ubuntuguy> And keep ubuntu only
[01:11] <Arteymis> Well..
[01:12] <Arteymis> I'm not so exped in grub configuring
[01:12] <ubuntuguy> Aww, but is it possible?
[01:12] <Arteymis> It's surely possible
[01:12] <syn-ack> yes
[01:12] <Arteymis> Everything could be edited
[01:12] <chuyzoz> Could somebody help me out, I'm having trouble changing permissions of a mounted external hard drive
[01:12] <ubuntuguy> Because I'm going to download ubuntu right now with dual boot and I want to make sure I could remove windows when I'm ready
[01:13] <syn-ack> ubuntuguy:  sudo dkp-reconfigure grup-pc and follow the on screen prompts after you remove your windows partitions will reinstall and configure grub for you
[01:13] <syn-ack> rather grub-pc
[01:13] <ubuntuguy> Thanks
[01:13] <ubuntuguy> Let me copy that
[01:13] <syn-ack> np
[01:13] <syn-ack> and I messed the command up further
[01:13] <chuyzoz> Could somebody help me out, I'm having trouble changing permissions of a mounted external hard drive
[01:13] <digitalfiz> so i click an image link in xchat and it is opening it in "eye of gnome" ? is that something new? it usually opens all links in a browser
[01:13] <syn-ack> hold on
[01:13] <Arteymis> What's going on with your hard drive?
[01:13] <mortenmj> hi. i've got an options dialog that is too big for my netbook screen, and it doesn't have a scrollbar. what can i do to see the lower part of it?
[01:14] <syn-ack> sudo dpkg-reconfigure grub-pc ubuntuguy
[01:14] <Arteymis> DUse alt+click to move it
[01:14] <chuyzoz> Arteymis : If i open up a terminal in my external hard drive and try to change the file permissions to anything i can't seem to get it to worrk
[01:14] <ubuntuguy> So I just type that code in the termial and it will remove windows xp for me?
[01:14] <Arteymis> mortenmj: use Alt+click to move it
[01:15] <ubuntuguy> If i open up a terminal in my external hard drive and try to change the file permissions to anything i can't seem to get it to worrk
[01:15] <chuyzoz> the permissiions are not changed... (i'm doing ls -l before and after)
[01:15] <leealis> hello everyboydy
[01:15] <leealis> everybody*
[01:15] <eeepc> mortenmj: hold down the alt key, then left click and drag
[01:15] <leealis> how would i go about blacklisting my nvidia driver?
[01:15] <syn-ack> ubuntuguy: no, it will reconfigure grub AFTER you manually remove the windows partition
[01:15] <Arteymis> chuy: use sudo through terminal
[01:15] <dennister> does anyone know how to retrieve old IRC logs?
[01:15] <chuyzoz> so .. sudo chmod 700 <nameoffile>
[01:15] <ubuntuguy> This chat is too confusing
[01:16] <ubuntuguy> lol
[01:16] <chuyzoz> i've been trying to do that
[01:16] <mortenmj> Arteymis, eeepc: thank you, sirs
[01:16] <Jordan_U> !logs | dennister
[01:16] <Arteymis> It should do it
[01:16] <syn-ack> ubuntuguy: standby
[01:16] <ubuntuguy> Does anyone know how to install wifi on computer?
[01:16] <Arteymis> ubuntuguy: actually it's supposed to be configured already on ubuntu
[01:16] <syn-ack> ubuntuguy: check your private message, please
[01:16] <dennister> Jordan_U: thx, will try
[01:16] <ubuntuguy> Syn, how?
[01:17] <Jordan_U> dennister: You're welcome.
[01:17] <Arteymis> ubuntuguy: otherwise check your additional drivers
[01:17] <syn-ack> ubuntuguy: which irc client are you using?
[01:17] <ubuntuguy> Not sure
[01:17] <Arteymis> XChat
[01:17] <ubuntuguy> lol
[01:17] <ubuntuguy> Arteymis I need full verison right
[01:17] <ubuntuguy> Nope
[01:17] <syn-ack> ubuntuguy: lemme see if I can't find it
[01:17] <ubuntuguy> I'm on windows
[01:17] <chuyzoz> arteymis, sudo doesn't work , i can't change the permissions
[01:17] <FloodBot2> ubuntuguy: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[01:17] <ubuntuguy> webchat.freenode.net
[01:17] <syn-ack> yep
[01:17] <ubuntuguy> Arteymis I need full ubuntu verison for it to pick up wifi?
[01:18] <syn-ack> ubuntuguy: did you see another box come up with my nick in it?
[01:18] <Arteymis> chuyzoz: Does the hd has permission already?
[01:18] <ubuntuguy> Nope
[01:18] <ubuntuguy> Syn, you could email me
[01:18] <syn-ack> nah
[01:18] <ubuntuguy> I really need help lol
[01:18] <Arteymis> ubuntuguy: Ubuntu will take your wifi in charge don't worry
[01:18] <syn-ack> ubuntuguy: hold on a sec
[01:18] <chuyzoz> if i go to system -> administration -> user/groups -> advanced settings ... the option "access external storage devices automatically " is selected
[01:18] <ubuntuguy> Arteymis, with full verison right?
[01:18] <Arteymis> ubuntuguy: Of ubuntu?
[01:19] <ubuntuguy> Yeah
[01:19] <yazdmich> hi
[01:19] <Arteymis> Yea
[01:19] <bojangles> i installed openssh on my computer but want to be able to disable when i don't need it
[01:19] <ubuntuguy> Alright, going to install it now
[01:19] <Arteymis> k
[01:19] <bojangles> sudo /etc/init.d/ssh stop says it's stopping but i can still access it
[01:19] <ubuntuguy> But are you guys sure I could remove windows xp afterwards?
[01:19] <leealis> how would i blacklist my nvidia driver?
[01:19] <Arteymis> ubuntuguy?
[01:19] <ubuntuguy> Yes
[01:19] <Arteymis> Is it your first time?
[01:19] <yazdmich> how can i remove the 5 GB virtual drive created by oracle vm ware?
[01:19] <G1Bs0N> virgin yes
[01:19] <G1Bs0N> srry
[01:19] <Arteymis> XD
[01:19] <G1Bs0N> wrong channel\
[01:20] <Arteymis> I hope XD
[01:20] <yazdmich> i need my 5 GB back
[01:20] <TeruFSX> yazdmich you should be able to delete it from vmware
[01:20] <ubuntuguy> Yes
[01:20] <syn-ack> hrm
[01:20] <yazdmich> ok
[01:20] <Jordan_U> bojangles: That doesn's stop already active connections. You shouldn't be able to start a new ssh session though.
[01:20] <yazdmich> thanks
[01:20] <syn-ack> where is the webchat portal... ack
[01:20] <ubuntuguy> It is
[01:20] <ubuntuguy> But I could remove windows xp afterwards right, for sure?
[01:20] <Jordan_U> syn-ack: http://webchat.freenode.net
[01:20] <bojangles> Jordan_U: it seems that i can though
[01:20] <Arteymis> Move in a private room (and gibson shh!), ill help you with basic stuff
[01:20] <bojangles> i killed the ssh connection and opened a new one just fine
[01:20] <ubuntuguy> Alright
[01:20] <ubuntuguy> How to get to private room
[01:20] <ubuntuguy> ?
[01:21] <G1Bs0N> private room ?
[01:21] <TeruFSX> ubuntuguy /msg Arteymis
[01:21] <syn-ack-web> hrm
[01:21] <TeruFSX> with the message you want to send
[01:21] <bojangles> Jordan_U: the computer with openssh says "* Stopping OpenBSD Secure Shell server sshd"
[01:21] <syn-ack-web> ubuntuguy: Check this out. I'm going to test something
[01:21] <chuyzoz> how can i change permissions in an mounted drive ?
[01:21] <Jordan_U> bojangles: Use "sudo service ssh stop".
[01:22] <G1Bs0N> Artemiys: it
[01:22] <bojangles> Jordan_U: "connection refused"... thank you. so is that the only command i need to stop/start it (and not worry about what i tried the first time)?
[01:22] <ChrisB> hello
[01:22] <Jordan_U> bojangles: Yes.
[01:22] <ChrisB> i need some serious help
[01:23] <ChrisB> i have been looking all over for the answer and i still have not found it
[01:23] <syn-ack> ubuntuguy: did you get the pm this time again?
[01:23] <Jordan_U> ChrisB: Just state your problem. If anyone can help they will.
[01:24] <bojangles> Jordan_U: okay, do i use sudo service ssh start also?
[01:24] <syn-ack> ubuntuguy: The tab on the top of your client
[01:24] <G1Bs0N> ChrisB: we all need serious help
[01:24] <G1Bs0N> welcome to life
[01:24] <G1Bs0N> at ubuntu
[01:24] <chuyzoz> i can't seem to be able to change permissiosn in a mounted drive, can anyone help? i've tried sudo chmod # and doesn't seem to work. how can i check if i am able to write to the drive ?
[01:24] <Jordan_U> bojangles: Yes.
[01:24] <bojangles> Jordan_U: okay, if i start and then try to stop again it says "stop: unknown instance"  but the connection closes?
[01:25] <G1Bs0N> chyzoz: me too
[01:25] <ChrisB> i need help formatting my hard drive to ntfs format but i cant do that becasuse my only  hard drive i have it says is file system
[01:25] <G1Bs0N> chmod
[01:26] <chuyzoz> gibson... sudo chmod doesn't work for me
[01:26] <xrdodrx> G1Bs0N, if the help in this channel is not satisfactory, Canonical provides for-pay technical support
[01:26] <Jordan_U> bojangles: That's because you started sshd from "/etc/init.d/ssh start". If you don't use service then upstart isn't aware of that instance on sshd.
[01:26] <Wicked> hmm. this laptop has a ati card...i was never asked to use restricted drivers...and i dont see any options in the hardware manager
[01:27] <Wicked> !ati
[01:27] <G1Bs0N> ??? excuse me
[01:27] <Nikon> sup g1bs0n

[01:27] <ChrisB> noone helped me
[01:27] <najwa> hello
[01:27] <Jordan_U> Wicked: It's likely that your ATI card is old enough that it's no longer supported by the proprietary "fglrx" driver.
[01:27] <ChrisB> :(
[01:27] <G1Bs0N> Ello
[01:28] <najwa> good morning all
[01:28] <G1Bs0N> Nikon: that was ages
[01:28] <xrdodrx> !ops
[01:28] <Nikon> so is this crash override or the plague ?
[01:28] <maco> xrdodrx: what?
[01:28] <G1Bs0N> !amberalert
[01:28] <KB1JWQ> xrdodrx: Help you with something?
[01:28] <bojangles> Jordan_U: is there an easy way to limit the machines that can i access the ssh machine? (not just specific ip ranges)?...sorry i'm very new to the ssh server area (clearly)
[01:29] <ChrisB> where is another chat room i can go to or can i like pm the head dog in here and have him help me
[01:29] <Wicked> Jordan_U, hmm. its a radeon x1200

[01:36] <mayahustle> Hi, I just finished setting up my dvd player in ubuntu, installing the restricted package, and running the libdvdread4 install script, etc... but there still seem to be dvds that can't be played.  Specifically, I have a sherlock holmes dvd, by warner bros that never gets passed the first 3 seconds of playback.. any ideas?
[01:36] <magn3ts> Anyone have any hot data recovery tips?
[01:37] <Sonja> whenever i wake up ubuntu, it doesn't autoconnect to my wifi. i have to tell it "connect to this one please". any way to make it auto-search and connect for known wifi networks?
[01:37] <mayahustle> I also noticed that the dvd has a label, "This dvd is copy protected and may be played only on licensed devices".. i have no idea what kind of drm they mean here
[01:37] <Sean93> when i try to start ushare i get "interface wlan0 is down" but it is not, how do i fix it?
[01:37] <Nikon> maco: where can i file a complaint to get xrdodrx removed ?

[01:39] <Jordan_U> mayahustle: It's an annoying form of DRM where they virtually "scratch" the disk (provide invalid checksums so that a read appears to have failed). Ironically, the easiest way to play such a DVD is to copy it to your hard drive using GNU ddrescue.
[01:39] <ChrisB> where is a less crowded chattroom so i can actually get help
[01:39] <magn3ts> ChrisB, no where
[01:40] <magn3ts> !ask
[01:40] <Blue11> quick question for you - if I do a:  sudo apt-get update and don't want one of the updates when I do upgrade, how do I tell it hey I don't want this upgrade (one particular item) -- make sense?
[01:40] <gaten> arcsky: you mean after install?
[01:40] <osmosis> is there by any chance a compiz plugin that inverts everything EXCEPT the images so I dont get faces that look like blue man group?
[01:40] <Jordan_U> ChrisB: You don't need to format your hard drive before installing windows. The windows installer will whipe and format the drive during install.
[01:40] <arcsky> gaten: yeah after install
[01:40] <ChrisB> i did and noone replied the two times i did it
[01:41] <mayahustle> Jordan_U:.. whatis the name of this kinda drm? and although I know how to use ddrescue, is there no way around this? it's kind of annoying to have to copy a dvd everytime I want to play it
[01:41] <XMR> How do I install a propriety driver that will allow me to use my WiFi without having WiFi to connect to the internet with ?
[01:41] <mayahustle> I'm thinking in terms of using something like redbox
[01:41] <xrdodrx> ChrisB, there are other ways to get help with ubuntu than IRC.
[01:41] <ChrisB> but jordan it dosent do that it tells me where to save the windows operating system but it says none of my partitions are right for it
[01:41] <xrdodrx> !forums | ChrisB
[01:42] <Jordan_U> ChrisB: For help installing windows try asking in ##windows.
[01:42] <gaten> arcsky: try the wiki? https://wiki.ubuntu.com/EncryptedHomeFolder
[01:42] <ChrisB> how do i join that jordan
[01:42] <magn3ts> I have a hard drive that I backed up to. The drive shows 200GB used, but the folder where the files should be is empty.
[01:42] <Rogan_> Hi there, using command line cp, what option would I specify if I wanted to copy the _contents_ or a directory, not the directory and it's contents but just everything inside it? (If it's even possible, or if there is a better way to do that)
[01:43] <mayahustle> Jordan_U: Thanks for your help, much appreciated!
[01:43] <gaten> XMR: ethernet or sneakernet
[01:43] <jrib> Rogan_: use a glob
[01:43] <gaten> magn3ts: is it using the filesystem you think it is?
[01:43] <xrdodrx> ChrisB, type "/join ##windows" without quotation marks
[01:44] <magn3ts> gaten, it's an ext4 drive, it shows utilization when I check disk usage in gnome, but the folder where the files should be is empty
[01:44] <Rogan_> jrib: Can you elaborate a little? Or should I practise using google
[01:44] <ChrisB> if i have a private chat on the left side of my chatroom will it exit out of that
[01:44] <XMR> gaten: I don't have the option of Ethernet and have no idea what's Sneakernet ...
[01:45] <XMR> gaten: (and no idea how to whisper ... )
[01:45] <Maahes> where can I set the number of virtual desktops in metacity?
[01:45] <gaten> magn3ts: did you try 'ls -l' or 'du' from the cli?
[01:45] <jrib> Rogan_: foo/* is an example of globbing.  So is foo/.*  (for example)
[01:45] <xrdodrx> ChrisB, which IRC client are you using?
[01:45] <Solow_> hello, my installer seems to stop when opening the partioner. (45%) anything i can do?
[01:45] <Rogan_> Ah, sweet thanks! I understand now :)
[01:45] <gaten> XMR: sneakernet is usb ;) put the files you need onto a usb and walk em over to the other pc.
[01:46] <magn3ts> gaten, yes, I've done everything I can reasonably think of
[01:46] <magn3ts> gaten, disk usage analyzer shows total usage as 200MB
[01:46] <magn3ts> but the FS reports 230GB used.
[01:47] <XMR> gaten: i think i have the files on pc ... i copied the url it was trying to access and downloaded the file it was pointing at ... went back on the ubuntu and installed it, but it still didnt change anything so i guess i didnt do it right
[01:48] <gaten> XMR: reboot? and is it a kernel module?
[01:48] <Amaranth> magn3ts: Are you telling the disk usage analyzer to scan your home or the whole disk?
[01:48] <Amaranth> magn3ts: it does home by default
[01:48] <gaten> magn3ts: hmm. try doing that as root? or trying on another system
[01:48] <XMR> gaten: it's actually the live version, i don't want to make the full install untill i know for sure that everything works ...
[01:49] <magn3ts> Amaranth, both
[01:49] <bojangles> Jordan_U: thanks again for your help
[01:49] <Jordan_U> bojangles: You're welcome.
[01:49] <gaten> XMR: oh ok. well then if its a kernel module, you'll have to modprobe it to load it
[01:49] <aboleth> Jordan_U: i'm on grml now, but my usb mouse isn't working. i know it's not an ubuntu question, but how could i fix that, i'd really like to be able to have that working before i start recovering the files
[01:49] <magn3ts> Amaranth, the FS reports 200+GB used, but the FS is only aware of maybe a few GB of actual usage. It has "journaled" the file usage, but it has lost the refernces to the files or something.
[01:49] <XMR> gaten: i dont even know what that means :/
[01:49] <aboleth> wait someone actually responded on #grml
[01:49] <aboleth> i thought it was empty since i didn't see anyone talk for several minutes
[01:50] <Jordan_U> aboleth: I don't know, and unfortunately I need to leave right now :(
[01:50] <aboleth> Jordan_U: will you be back today?
[01:50] <Amaranth> magn3ts: I think your only option is probably going to be running fsck and hoping it puts the files back instead of marking the space as free
[01:50] <Amaranth> magn3ts: Normally I'd say to make a backup of the disk first...
[01:50] <Jordan_U> aboleth: Possibly. If not I will be tomorrow.
[01:50] <magn3ts> Amaranth, it's a VDI, it's easy for me to backup and try things out fortunately
[01:50] <gaten> XMR: er ok. does the site where you downloaded the drivers have a help/howto install?
[01:51] <Jordan_U> aboleth: Keeping in mind that I'm probably in a different time zone that you (it's currently 17:51 where I am).
[01:51] <aboleth> Jordan_U: ok, well then i'll try recovering it whenever you get back
[01:51] <XMR> gaten: this is the link i used - http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/main/p/patch/patch_2.6-2ubuntu1_i386.deb
[01:51] <XMR> gaten: so i think this is the help for that site, no? :)
[01:52] <aboleth> Jordan_U: i'm in eastern time, but i'm not sure what time it is now, but it's almost certainly after 19:00
[01:52] <Maahes> There's a setting in apps>metacity>general called num_workspaces but its a checkbox, not an integer value
[01:53] <gaten> XMR: hah, kinda. where did you get that link, we need some documentation to go along wiht it to figure this out
[01:54] <XMR> gaten: i can email you a "screen shot" i took with my cell phone of the problem - that's where i found the link as well.
[01:55] <XMR> gaten: also, there's this link which describes it as a known issue, but doesnt specify how to fix it (at least not well enough for me to understand it anyways) - http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1606271

[02:00] <crf> ALSO, this only happens when I logged in as one user, I can suspend in another account
[02:00] <gaten> sounds like permission issues
[02:01] <XMR> gaten: it was written on the error message that the web address could not be resolved ..

[02:21] <DarkStar1> Sonic132: I never had a problem doing that with grub2
[02:21] <joeyjones> *9.04
[02:22] <willis__> is there any drawback to encrypting my home directory?
[02:22] <rediago> trying to mount it from a live cd?
[02:22] <Sonic132> DarkStar1: So I can just do it and Grub will compensate?
[02:22] <B45h_V|> sonic132: then it's grub2. If you're doing the changes from within Ubuntu you can execute sudo update-grub in the end to be sure
[02:22] <rediago> any one know any succinct c programming tutorials
[02:22] <Sonic132> rediago: Are you typing to me? Cause I don't know what your referring to.
[02:22] <spikebike> Anyone know if thunderbird on Ubuntu maverick uses the system SSL certs?
[02:22] <rediago> specifically geared towards linux
[02:22] <rediago> no
[02:22] <DarkStar1> Sonic132: I never had any problems on my normal PC but I haven't used netbook remix
[02:23] <Sonic132> B45h_V|: Ok...so use gparted to merge the two partitions and then update grub?
[02:23] <DarkStar1> Sonic132: grub2 auto updated when I did mine a while back.
[02:23] <B45h_V|> sonic132: might work without the update-grub, but to be sure I'd do it
[02:24] <DarkStar1> as long as you're not crossing swap or / territory
[02:24] <Solow_> every time i try to install ubuntu, the installation stops.
[02:24] <Sonic132> B45h_V|: Yeah...I think I will.
[02:24] <Solow_> freezes
[02:24] <Sonic132> DarkStar1: What if I wanted to expand my swap space? Or should I actually?
[02:24] <wlixw> hi
[02:24] <wlixw> someone's here?
[02:24] <willis__> solow_ have you tried the alternate installer?
[02:24] <Sonic132> DarkStar1: It's 2.25Gib right now and I believe this laptop have 2GB of RAM.
[02:24] <rediago> @sonic then try gparted live cd
[02:25] <B45h_V|> sonic132: then you should be fine
[02:25] <Solow_> willis__, what? I dont understand sorry. I tried desktop, and server. server crashes while loading the partioner, and desktop while (checks) right after 'preparing to install ubuntu'
[02:25] <Sonic132> rediago: Would I have to, to merge the partitions? They'd need to be unmounted correct?
[02:25] <pmp6nl> Hello, does anyone know the command to add to the startup applications to delay them... something I can add right from system--preferences--startup
[02:25] <DarkStar1> Sonic132: yeah! do as rediago said
[02:26] <Sonic132> DarkStar1: Ok.
[02:26] <shcherbak> pmp6nl: in the script sleep <seconds>
[02:26] <Sonic132> Everyone: But I could still do sudo update grub from the Gparted disc?
[02:26] <wlixw> well, installing the new Xubuntu, on Compaq 1.8 ghz, 512 Mb Ram... 20 gb hd.. I think i'm installing on a flash drive usb..
[02:27] <pmp6nl> shcherbak so I cannot just add it to the command in the menu, it has to be in the actual script?
[02:27] <B45h_V|> sonic132: may be, but it would not help :p
[02:27] <shcherbak> pmp6nl: well, two line script.
[02:27] <jc> i can't see my chat on the panel,but it is there.who can tell me what is going on
[02:27] <Sonic132> B45h_V|: Ok...so should I be worried?
[02:27] <pmp6nl> scherbak: something like sleep 300;
[02:28] <rediago> and again: anyone know a good C programming tutorial
[02:28] <Solow_> in all honesty, i'm looking at ubuntu netbook screenshots, and it looks like it would be a great os for my desktop as well. is this weird?
[02:28] <rediago> that is brief and effective
[02:28] <shcherbak> pmp6nl: i.e. sleep 10; firefox &; disown %1; exit
[02:28] <wlixw> Someone's know why my pc crashes everytime I launch Firefox in Xubuntu?
[02:28] <rediago> wlixw
[02:28] <wlixw> hi
[02:28] <rediago> tha could be for many reasons can you be more specific
[02:28] <wlixw> thank you for according your time
[02:29] <wlixw> well
[02:29] <B45h_V|> sonic132: not sure... If the Linux-partition does not change you'll probably be fine, if it does it might be tricky
[02:29] <pmp6nl> shcherbak: so I would need to create a separate script to startup all of the applications, I cant edit the startup scripts that already exist (btw where are they)?
[02:29] <solidrock> guys, i'm using ubuntu 10.04 and i want to create a sample 100Mb file how do i do that ?
[02:29] <stork_> hi are there programs for internet tv available?
[02:29] <Sonic132> B45h_V|: Well it should change. I am trying to merge the old Windows partition into Ubuntu's to gain all the space on the HD.
[02:30] <wlixw> I have this old Compaq
[02:30] <shcherbak> pmp6nl: why do you want to delay them?
[02:30] <pmp6nl> stork start with miro or hulu desktop
[02:30] <wlixw> with Vista on it
[02:30] <spirited123> Can anyone tell me if there is any free streaming software for ubuntu? I need to be able to stream audio. Message me please.
[02:30] <wlixw> re rediago
[02:30] <pmp6nl> shcherbak: my backup application slows everything down
[02:30] <wlixw> I have this Compaq with Vista on it
[02:30] <mrhyd3> spirited123: Try VLC
[02:30] <Habstinat> So can I run Smart BootManager on a 64 bit operating system?
[02:30] <tiox> wlixw: Might work. Give it a try if you wanna.
[02:31] <B45h_V|> dd if=/dev/zero of=/path/to/file bs=1m count=100
[02:31] <Habstinat> I'm on Windows 7 at the moment.
[02:31] <tiox> But the first step is, actually DOING it. Y'know?
[02:31] <B45h_V|> solidrock: dd if=/dev/zero of=/path/to/file bs=1m count=100
[02:31] <tiox> Make a boot CD or USB (Read Ubuntu's website for instruction), then uh, try it.
[02:31] <solidrock> tnx B45h_V|
[02:31] <B45h_V|> sonic132: is the linux partition the first on the hdd (sda1)
[02:31] <solidrock> trying out now
[02:32] <tim__> tds
[02:32] <Sonic132> B45h_V|: No, I was under the impression that if it was Windows would not like it.
[02:32] <shcherbak> pmp6nl: not sure it does much sens to run backup @ boot, you could write script to trigger it while loads are low.
[02:32] <Sonic132> Windows (sda1) Linux (sda2) Swap (sda3)
[02:33] <pmp6nl> shcherbak: no sorry, its not a backup script but a backup program: spideroak.  I would also like to delay dropbox
[02:33] <Sonic132> Also, I don't know if it's relevant. But sda1 is labeled 'boot'. Should I change that?
[02:33] <chid> no
[02:34] <DarkStar1> Sonic132: Yeah.. you have a bit of a cut and paste job if Linux isn't the 1st partition :)
[02:34] <chid> is there anything wrong with the cron line, 28 * * * * /home/charley/dev/test.pl
[02:34] <solidrock> @B45h_V|, invalid bs=1m so i changed it to 1M
[02:34] <Sonic132> DarkStar1: What do you mean?
[02:34]  * tiox loves hos wilxw left without even thanks or a good-bye...
[02:34] <Sonic132> DarkStar1: Editing grub menu.lst or whatever it's called now?
[02:34] <B45h_V|> sonic132: so you got these options: find someone that is better skilled than I am -.-, try it all in a vm or do a reinstall (depending on the amount of progs the easiest)
[02:35] <B45h_V|> sonic132: oh, or do a chroot from gparted-system to the ubuntu after resizing
[02:35] <Chr|s_> hmmm, how come when I go to youtube to view a video, it is fast fowarding?
[02:35] <Sonic132> B45h_V|: Well I don't want to have to redownload everything and I just backed up the Windows partition onto Ubuntus so yeah.
[02:35] <chid> Chr|s_: what do you mean fast forwarding?
[02:35] <DarkStar1> Sonic132: If you want just the one solid partition as opposed to 2 partitions.. moving "/" will be a bit of a cut and paste job with issues...
[02:35] <tiox> Exactly that.
[02:35] <tiox> Playing faster than normal.
[02:36] <tiox> Have you tried quitting Firefox and running it again?
[02:36] <Chr|s_> chid:  exactly how I said it. video is fast forwarding, no audio..
[02:36] <chid> have you got the latest flash version?
[02:37] <chid> 64bit of 32bit?
[02:37] <chid> also what tiox said
[02:37] <Sonic132> DarkStar1: Ok...So I moved everything I want to keep from Windows (sda1) to Ubuntu (sda2). So I can reformat that partition. But I believe it's where grub is installed. Thus the problem. What if it removes grub. So can I just move grub to the resulting partition?
[02:37] <tiox> :)
[02:37] <DarkStar1> Sonic132: can't remember exactly how I did it but I know it took me almost and hour to move / and it wasn't without problems.. all because I wanted 1 solid partition.. Can't even remember if I succeded now :D
[02:37] <Chr|s_> I have amd64 and yeah I have tried that
[02:37] <DarkStar1> Sonic132: grub will not reside on the windows partition
[02:38] <shcherbak> pmp6nl: just getting familiar with both programs, do you have that much stuff to back up, I use ls, grep, cp and gzip for that purpose
[02:38] <DarkStar1> Sonic132: You can safely nuke that and reformat it
[02:38] <DarkStar1> Sonic132: then specify a mount point for your new partition
[02:38] <Sonic132> DarkStar1: Well then it should be alright then? Also, I told it to install grub to sda (no numeral following) during install. So I assumed that was sda1.
[02:39] <B45h_V|> sonic132: it went to the mbr of sda
[02:39] <pmp6nl> shcherbak: I want the programs to run on startup since they keep track of file changes and back them up.  I just want to delay them on startup say 30 seconds so everything else can load first
[02:39] <Sonic132> B45h_V|: And where is the mbr of sda?
[02:39] <Sonic132> B45h_V|: Hopefully on sda2.
[02:39] <B45h_V|> sonic132: first few bits, bevore partitions start
[02:40] <Sonic132> B45h_V|: Ah ok. So that will remain intact no matter what I do.
[02:40] <AdamDV> How can I do this: ls -l | cat
[02:40] <DarkStar1> Sonic132: Yeah
[02:40] <magn3ts> AdamDV, uh, what are you trying to do...
[02:40] <B45h_V|> sonic132: it also holds the table that defines the partitions in the first place
[02:40] <AdamDV> List the contents of all files in the current directory.
[02:40] <DarkStar1> Sonic132: Unless ofc you take a hammer to the hardware...
[02:40] <Nisstyre65> AdamDV, ls -a
[02:40] <AdamDV> and then output that to wc -l to count the number of lines of all the files in the current dir.
[02:40] <B45h_V|> DarkStar1: :D
[02:40] <magn3ts> AdamDV, "cat *" would do that
[02:41] <magn3ts> AdamDV, "wc -l *"
[02:41] <Nisstyre65> AdamDV, what's wrong with ls -a | wc -l ?
[02:41] <magn3ts> wc -l *  is the same as   cat * | wc -l
[02:41] <AdamDV> Anyway I can do that recursively?
[02:41] <Nisstyre65> actually
[02:41] <magn3ts> Nisstyre65, what are you talking about?
[02:41] <Nisstyre65> magn3ts, dunno what I was thinking lol
[02:41] <magn3ts> Nisstyre65, he wants to count the lines in all the files, not the number of files
[02:41] <magn3ts> :P
[02:42] <Sonic132> B45h_V| and DarkStar1: Ok so I deleted the NTFS partition. So how would I go about mounting it in such a way as I will have more space for packages, downloads, and such?
[02:42] <shcherbak> pmp6nl: script would be easiest, I think you could halt them externaly, but it looks less stable
[02:42] <B45h_V|> sonic132: have you considered using sda1 as /home/* partition?
[02:42] <kaboom> I'm dual booting Ubuntu and Kubuntu. I want to remove Kubuntu and go back to just Ubuntu. Help?
[02:42] <B45h_V|> that would be very easy and helpful at the same time
[02:42] <Sonic132> B45h_V|: I was thinking about it. But what about '/' ? What happens to that?
[02:43] <DarkStar1> Sonic132: Yeah.. What he said..
[02:43]  * DarkStar1 points at B45h_V| 
[02:43] <B45h_V|> sonic132: it remains the same size, but your userfiles are not stored on it anymore
[02:43] <sunshinepants> AdamDV: find ./ -type f |wc -l
[02:43] <tx23> For an older ATI Radeon X300 on Ubuntu 10.10, would it be better to use the default open source drivers or the manufacturer's proprietary drivers?
[02:43] <pmp6nl> shcherbak, hummm youd think i could tell it to wait 30 secs pretty easily....
[02:43]  * DarkStar1 again points at B45h_V| 
[02:44] <Sonic132> B45h_V|: Isn't '/' where all packages are installed? Where I'd really need the extra space? Or no?
[02:44] <DarkStar1> Nope
[02:44] <B45h_V|> sonic132: you're right, but what size does your sda2 have?
[02:44] <Nisstyre65> Sonic132, /usr is where it's all put
[02:44] <bombshell> hello
[02:44] <Nisstyre65> and /lib
[02:45] <Chr|s_> I am unable to get flash to work. I am running amd64
[02:45]  * DarkStar1 points at Nisstyre65 
[02:45] <bombshell> Does Banshee 0.13.1 --- come with eq?
[02:45] <bombshell> I thought it did?
[02:45] <Sonic132> B45h_V|: 49.15Gib Capacity and Sda1 is 97.66Gib
[02:45] <oxidizer> hi
[02:45] <AdamDV> Thanks :)
[02:45] <B45h_V|> sonic132: it will be hard work to fill that up with programs :D
[02:46] <B45h_V|> sonic132: my >1year old ubuntu is <11GB and I install a lot of things
[02:46] <Sonic132> B45h_V|: So I just use Gparted to set the mount point to '/home' or is there another step?
[02:46] <B45h_V|> move your files first
[02:46] <Disk1of5> whats the best way to create a new encrypted home for a new user on a netbook? in the default install theres a option to do so but for new users there is not one?
[02:47] <Sonic132> B45h_V|: I already moved the off the old NTFS and formatted it to Ext4.
[02:47] <Sonic132> *them off
[02:47] <oxidizer> any one can tell me how to install Dock in ubuntu 10.10
[02:47] <B45h_V|> create a mountpoint with sudo mkdir /media/sda2 then sudo mount /dev/sda2 /media/sda2
[02:47] <hiexpo> cairo dock
[02:47] <magn3ts> oxidizer, what dock?
[02:48] <oxidizer> any
[02:48] <DarkStar1> I'm out
[02:48] <magn3ts> they're all basically the same- install the package or find a ppa with more current versions
[02:48] <B45h_V|> then you do sudo rsync -a -v -P /home/<yourusername>/ /media/sda2/
[02:48]  * DarkStar1 waves a goodbye
[02:48] <shcherbak> pmp6nl: http://tombuntu.com/index.php/2007/11/23/how-to-pause-a-linux-process/
[02:49] <pmp6nl> shcherbak thanks for your help!
[02:49] <vinooo> where should i put template files in 10.10? so they can appear on "create document"
[02:50] <B45h_V|> sonic132: pay attention to the / when using rsync
[02:50] <tecnico> Disk1of5: generally the partition is what's encrypted or the mount point. So you may have a couple of options. Create a new logical volume and mount it as /home/newuser and encrypt that. Or you could use something like a loop to mount some encrypted file as the user's home directory.
[02:50] <B45h_V|> so really use /media/sda2/ and not /media/sda2
[02:50] <Sonic132> B45h_V|: You know I think your assuming that I'm the only user of this laptop. But what if I want to leave space for my Dad as well and other users?
[02:50] <tx23> Currently, I am unable to get Ubuntu 10.10 to display graphical output unless the "nomodeset" kernel parameter is specified in GRUB. How can I fix this so that nomodeset is no longer necessary?
[02:50] <B45h_V|> ok
[02:50] <B45h_V|> I see
[02:51] <Solovei> I need help with Empathy!
[02:51] <B45h_V|> sonic132: in that case the command would be sudo rsync -a -v -P /home/<yourusername> /media/sda2/
[02:51] <ronaldo__> BOA NOITE !!! ALGUEM PODE ME AJUDAR A INSTALAR UMA PLACA UBS WIRELESS NO UBUNTU 10.10 ????????????????????????
[02:51] <Solovei> I googled the error I got in debug but it didn't return anything.
[02:51] <B45h_V|> sonic132: then set the mountpoint to /home
[02:52] <hxcjonnysniper> does anyone know if i can download graphic drivers for intel on ubuntu 10.10?
[02:52] <ronaldo__> BOA NOITE !!! ALGUEM PODE ME AJUDAR A INSTALAR UMA PLACA UBS WIRELESS NO UBUNTU 10.10 ????????????????????????
[02:52] <B45h_V|> hxcjonnysniper: intel does OSS drivers, so they're in the kernel or inexistant (as far as I know)
[02:53] <Sonic132> B45h_V|: So this is copying over all the files? So that would mean they exist twice now?
[02:53] <B45h_V|> sonic132: exactly
[02:53] <Sonic132> B45h_V|: So all the space from the other partition is now all mine? None of the other users can use it?
[02:54] <G1Bs0N> mount error 13
[02:54] <Sonic132> B45h_V|: Or...*lightbulb*. I just repeat that command replacing each users name?
[02:54] <B45h_V|> depends on how you're mounting it. If you mount sda2 on /home/<youusername> then it's all yours. If you mount it on /home then all users home-dirs will be stored on that partition
[02:55] <Sonic132> B45h_V|: Oh God...what command did you give me?
[02:55] <hxcjonnysniper> B45h_V| thanks. cause i had openGL working awhile ago. and now it wont work. and plus i can't emulate some programs through wine because of the graphic card or drivers. idk.
[02:55] <Solovei> Whatever, I'll just install pidgin or something.
[02:55] <Sonic132> B45h_V|: I think you told me the /home/username one
[02:55] <Sonic132> B45h_V|: Can I redo it?
[02:55] <G1Bs0N>  mount -t cifs -o username=server_user,password=secret //192.168.1.31/C$ /media/trash
[02:55] <G1Bs0N> \
[02:57] <B45h_V|> sonic132: yes, you can redo it. If you want the sda2 for all users just repeat the rsync command for every user, untill the homedirectories of all users are copied, then set the mountpoint to /home
[02:58] <Sonic132> B45h_V|: And I set the mountpoint to /home with Gparted right?
[02:58] <robertzaccour> anyone else having trouble connecting to msn messenger?
[02:58] <B45h_V|> sonic132: exactly
[02:58] <Chr|s_> ok installed flash fine, but when I go to youtube, it seems as the video is fast forwarding, no audio
[02:58] <Sonic132> B45h_V|: Because right now it doesn't give me the option to do that.
[02:58] <Sonic132> B45h_V|: I have to reformat it again?
[02:58] <G1Bs0N> permissin denied]
[02:58] <spirited123> Can anyone tell me if there is any free streaming software for ubuntu? I need to be able to stream audio. Message me please.
[02:59] <Chr|s_> spirited123:  check the ubuntu software center
[02:59] <Chr|s_> or even appnr.com
[02:59] <B45h_V|> sonic132: you can always edit /etc/fstab to set the mountpoint
[03:00] <jetsaredim> anyone run into a weird error where video playback of .avi files looks like a negative?
[03:00] <hxcjonnysniper> B45h_V|: oss is for sound. i need to update my intel video card drivers. and i cannot find ANYTHING. ahhhhh! im bout to pull all my hair out. lol.
[03:00] <shcherbak> spirited123: shoutcast
[03:00] <spirited123> chr: I have not installed ubuntu yet, is there a website for that?
[03:00] <jetsaredim> i tried the google, but everything there seems related to nvidia drivers yet i'm running ati
[03:00] <Kerrick> How do I access my sshfs directories that I mount via a shortcut in the terminal? I used to be able to go to ~/.gvfs and they were all there, but this seems to have changed.
[03:00] <B45h_V|> oss stands for OpenSourceSoftware
[03:01] <Chr|s_> spirited123:  I don't think so, appnr.com has many ubuntu apps that are available though
[03:01] <setup> hi, I'm trying to set BURG to default to windows 7,, 'startup manager' isnt doing it.. any help?
[03:01] <chid> hi, I'm wondering, what's the easiest way to set up a way to send 'emails' to your account in ubuntu
[03:01] <B45h_V|> sonic132: the line you'd have to add to /etc/fstab looks like this "/dev/sda2 /home ext4 rw 0 0" (without the "")
[03:01] <chid> just local emailing users, so that cron can send output to my 'email'
[03:01] <mkquist> spirited123: how about streamtuner
[03:02] <mkquist> spirited123: if you havent installed ubuntu then why ask in here?
[03:03] <spirited123> mk: Because I want to make sure there is something that will work before I install ubuntu.
[03:03] <willis__> ok thanks to iflema's advice i finally got ubuntu 10.10 installed, and now after i select it from the boot menu, and choose my name to login, all traces of interface disappear, and it's just my mouse and the wallpaper
[03:03] <G1Bs0N> permissin denied]
[03:03] <mkquist> spirited123: what are you trying to stream?
[03:03] <Chr|s_> spirited123:  stream music as something like shoutcast?
[03:04] <Sonic132> B45h_V|: http://paste.ubuntu.com/534140/ is what mine looks like now.
[03:04] <eureka_> hi all!
[03:04] <eureka_> how to back up in ubuntu?
[03:05] <Chr|s_> spirited123:  http://idjc.sourceforge.net/
[03:05] <Sonic132> B45h_V|: Also, it's still running the terminal command for my /home
[03:05] <shcherbak> willis__: Alt-Ctrl F1 does work?
[03:05] <B45h_V|> Sonic132: Did I get this right, this version is _before_ you did any changes?
[03:05] <willis__> shcherbak yes it takes me to "ubuntu login:" prompt
[03:05] <iluminator101> how do i change encrypted private passphrase from the current one
[03:05] <Sonic132> B45h_V|: This is the version before I edited the file yes.
[03:05] <shcherbak> willis__: login please
[03:06] <G1Bs0N> is it my fstab
[03:07] <Sonic132> brb...gotta go take care of my son. Terminal command still going.
[03:07] <willis__> shcherbak ifi am supposed to enter my username here, it just returns:

[03:07] <Sean93> where can i get a fuppes config file?
[03:07] <willis__> then it returns me to the same login prompt
[03:07] <STF> hi i like to know how i have to use tar correctly cause "tar -cf test.tar /home/test --exclude /home/test/edit" doesn't work
[03:08] <willis__> does that mean my hd is screwed?
[03:08] <G1Bs0N> root@bt:/# sudo mount -t cifs -o username=server_user,password=secret,uid=client_user,gid=users //192.168.1.31 /C$ /media/trash
[03:09] <B45h_V|> Sonic132: make it look like that: http://paste.ubuntu.com/534141/
[03:11] <Habstinat> My computer won't boot from a CD or a flash drive. Will using Smart BootManager fix this?
[03:11] <shcherbak> willis__: hard disk? ckdsk to check it
[03:11] <sontek> If I am on wifi can I route dhcp over my etho for everyone on a switch?
[03:11] <Guo_Si_nullGee> Hey, you know what sucks?
[03:12] <Ubuntu_TheXPhial> vaccuums
[03:12] <shcherbak> willis__: from live cd
[03:12] <Guo_Si_nullGee> Hey, you know what sucks in a metaphorical sense?
[03:12] <Ubuntu_TheXPhial> black holes
[03:12] <Guo_Si_nullGee> Hey, you know what just isn't cool?
[03:12] <[thor]> :D
[03:12] <Ubuntu_TheXPhial> lava?
[03:13] <willis__> shcherbak thanks i will do that next, first i have to make a beer run or i am gonna go crazy
[03:13] <solidrock> guys, how do i find largest file on linux without specifying the size on it
[03:14] <otantik> yo
[03:14] <Solow_> Kudos for the installer!
[03:14] <Solow_> seriously
[03:14] <Solow_> it's freakin epic
[03:15] <STF> how do i have to use tar correctly cause "tar -cf test.tar /home/test --exclude /home/test/edit" doesn't work
[03:15] <dan2> is there a way to automatically download debugging symbols in ubuntu like debuginfo-install in fedora?
[03:15] <Habstinat> In other words, if my computer refuses to boot from a CD but will still read CDs fine, can I boot from a CD with Smart BootManager (http://sourceforge.net/projects/btmgr/), or is it for different purposes?
[03:15] <swim> does anybody know of any programs for ubuntu that will allow a user viewing pdf's to save a bookmark of their current location???
[03:15] <Sean93> where can i get a fuppes config file?
[03:16] <Habstinat> ...Are there any other alternatives to booting Ubuntu from a CD or flash drive then?
[03:17] <B45h_V|> guys, it's 4:17 in the morning here - good night
[03:18] <swim> Habstinat i used to dual boot, then there's always thumb drives and external hard drives too
[03:18] <mkquist> what do i need to install to compile c?
[03:18] <Habstinat> swim: I know, I have a wubi'd Ubuntu install on my computer right now, but I want to switch to a partition.
[03:19] <mkquist> Habstinat: is you comp set to boot from cd in bios?
[03:20] <Habstinat> mkquist: Yup, and when I try to exclude my regular hard drive and leave CD, this is what happens: http://twitpic.com/36yh44/full
[03:21] <Habstinat> mquist: It's definitely broken. I've gone over this with at least 10 people for over a week now.
[03:21] <Sonic132> Ok so I moved my /home directory to the new partition. How do I get rid of the duplicates? Also, why are there two partitions still? Is that the way it's supposed to look?
[03:21] <mkquist> Habstinat: checked the cd to make sure its good?
[03:22] <mkquist> Habstinat: like it boots on other machines?
[03:22] <MintBerryCrunch> Hey this is probably a common problem but I've researched and tried everything...I have no sound on ANY applications, installed 10.4 only 2 days ago. It had sound at first, then I installed pulseaudio and it's gone completely. I ran a debug in the terminal, messed with settings in both volume and pulse, and i turned up the volume in the alsa terminal control thing. Any suggestions?
[03:22] <Habstinat> mkquist: Of course. MD5sum is correct and it boots on my other PC.
[03:23] <mkquist> Habstinat: got me there then
[03:23] <STF> can anyone help me with tar?????
[03:23] <Habstinat> mkquist: Posting to forums now to reach more people.
[03:23] <MintBerryCrunch> STF: You mean unpacking?
[03:23] <STF> packing
[03:24] <swim> Habstinat you said you don't want to use pendrive??
[03:24] <MintBerryCrunch> wanna do it with the archive manager or the terminal?
[03:24] <STF> terminal
[03:24] <Sonic132> STF: Why can't you just right-click and extract?
[03:25] <Sonic132> STF: Ok...why can't you just right-click and compress?
[03:25] <STF> first i don not need to extract sth; second i have only the terminal
[03:25] <Habstinat> swim: I'm all for pendrives, but those don't work either. Let me explain...
[03:25] <Sonic132> Ouch
[03:25] <sin_tax> I'm running dual boot right now - If I delete my Ubuntu partition and expand my NTFS partition to take up the unused space, will GRUB no longer appear (wil I boot straight into windows)?
[03:25] <MintBerryCrunch> is that a -pkg command then?
[03:25] <DJJeff> ubuntu 10.10 why is my USB Game Joystick controlling the mouse?
[03:25] <MintBerryCrunch> i know dkpg is depackage
[03:25] <Habstinat> swim: Regular installer isn't recognized with flash drive. Alternate installer boots, but halfway through installing I get a fatal error about not having a kernel.
[03:26] <STF> i have probs with the excluding command of tar
[03:26] <swim> oh crap
[03:26] <Habstinat> swim: The installer asks if I want to continue without a kernel, but I asked here and people said to just exit the installation at that point.
[03:26] <MintBerryCrunch> If anyone has had no audio with a fresh install of Ubuntu 10.04 and fixed it, please send me a message. I only need a second, just point me in the right direction
[03:26] <Sonic132> Do I have to set one of the partitions to the 'boot' label? Or does it matter with Ubuntu?
[03:27] <DJJeff> MintBerryCrunch: try changing the sound output in your sound settings?
[03:27] <shcherbak> MintBerryCrunch: google pulseaudio fix 10.04 there is how to on forum
[03:27] <STF> does anyone can help now with this stupid crapp named tar???
[03:28] <shcherbak> STF: what exacly do you want to do?
[03:28] <MintBerryCrunch> Yeah, i did the sound settings, pulse audio settings, the alsa configuration in the terminal, everything is turned up
[03:28] <swim> Habstinant have you tried a fresh alternative install file and disc???  i had a prob like that with debian 5.0 and for some reason that helped..
[03:28] <MintBerryCrunch> if i installed alsa sound and pulse audio would that cause a possibl conflict?
[03:29] <Sonic132> STF: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BackupYourSystem/TAR
[03:29] <macabre> i have a weird issue, when i open my php files chrome downloads the file instead of displaying the page..
[03:29] <STF> shcherbak: i want to secure all files in tar.bzip file, but i need to exclude some dirs and this doesnst work
[03:29] <Habstinat> swim: The alternate installer was burned to my flash drive using the recommended tools and it had the right MD5sum.
[03:29] <Habstinat> swim: Also, my name doesn't have the word "ant" in it :P
[03:30] <Sonic132> STF: Maybe the link I pasted will work for you.
[03:30] <mkquist> MintBerryCrunch: so you 'had' sound until you installed pulseaudio?
[03:30] <ubuntu4shane> macabre, your permissions on the php file probably aren't set right
[03:30] <shcherbak> STF: all files? do you mean home?
[03:30] <macabre> ubuntu4shane: yea they are ok i can open them with gedit
[03:30] <STF> sonic132: thx, i hope it will
[03:30] <willis__> omg i think i actually successfully booted ubuntu from my hd
[03:30] <ubuntu4shane> macabre, on your computer?
[03:30] <STF> shcherbak: I mean my hole System
[03:31] <willis__> beer run saves the day!
[03:31] <ubuntu4shane> macabre, you have to have a server setup with php installed to open php files with chromium on your computer
[03:31] <Sonic132> Why does 'sudo update grub' not work? I'm getting 'command not found' errors.
[03:31] <macabre> ubuntu4shane: im running apache and php
[03:31] <DrManhattan> In installed a dual boot of osx86 and ubuntu. I installed ubuntu first and put grub on the mbr - I guess the chameleon bootloader wiped out grub but the linux partitions are still there. How can I reclaim my ubuntu install without wiping out my osx86 ?
[03:31] <mkquist> Sonic132: update-grub
[03:31] <mkquist> Sonic132: hyphen
[03:31] <jk_> Sonic132, the command is "update-grub" so if you include the dash it should work.
[03:32] <Sonic132> Ahhh! Thank you guys.
[03:32] <nicolas> howdy folks
[03:32] <Habstinat> No offense to any of you, but this is one of those problems that you can ask about a hundred times, but nobody will ever know exactly how to fix it :P Hoping a forum topic will help.
[03:32] <nicolas> anyone in here that knows his / her way around samba ? the channel itself is pretty much dead
[03:34] <sacarlson> nicolas:   samba should almost work plug and play
[03:34] <nicolas> well it is ..for the most part
[03:34] <nicolas> thought i would have the biggest problem getting the windoze comp to connect
[03:34] <nicolas> turns out its my other comp with ubuntu 10.10 on it
[03:35] <upfwnv03> ?
[03:35] <macabre> anyone else had this problem before? php files are downloading instead of displaying in the wndow
[03:35] <Dwade09> what do i type into the terminal to see if my laptop has hdmi support?
[03:35] <sacarlson> nicolas: can't share your samba files on 10.10?  can't share other files with 10.10?
[03:36] <nicolas> i can share between my main and the win7 comp
[03:36] <nicolas> but not between two 10.10 clients
[03:36] <mdg2> Hello.  I have an old paraport webcam I want to see if I can make run.  dmesg shows lp0 - anyone know how to set this up in cheese?
[03:36] <nicolas> smbtree throws me a funny protocol negotiation failed: NT_STATUS_IO_TIMEOUT error
[03:36] <shcherbak> STF: does --exclude help?
[03:37] <nicolas> configs are right tho..both 10.10 can get on the win7
[03:37] <willis__> so after days of profanity and tears i've finally installed and successfully booted into ubuntu 10.10 (thanks iflema!) but now it doesn't seem capable of connecting to my wireless network... please tell me there's a nice quick fix for this one? =)
[03:37] <mdg2> Hello.  I have an old paraport webcam I want to see if I can make run.  dmesg shows lp0 - anyone know how to set this up in cheese?
[03:37] <nicolas> willis...using ndiswrapper ?
[03:37] <STF> shcherbak: no
[03:37] <willis__> i'm sorry nicolas but i don't know what that is
[03:38] <shcherbak> STF: why? supposed to work for you.
[03:38] <willis__> i am trying to get my start in the linux world whether this OS wants me to or not
[03:38] <nicolas> willis.. does ubuntu find your wireless card or stick without problems :
[03:38] <Dwade09>  what do i type into the terminal to see if my laptop has hdmi support?
[03:38] <STF> shcherbak: I test it in a smal dir with only on sub dir and it is packing the sub dir also
[03:39] <STF> shcherbak: tar -cf test.tar /home/test/pastebinit --exclude /home/test/pastebinit/po
[03:39] <yanko> #ubuntu-es
[03:39] <mdg2> paraports anyone?
[03:40] <willis__> it finds my wireless card, the available wireless networks, i choose mine, enter the WPA2 passcode, and it just hangs and eventually says "Disconnected"
[03:40] <nicolas> hmm signal strength is ok ?
[03:40] <willis__> it looks like it's trying to pull an IP but fails... all the installers also said they failed to configure the DHCP connection
[03:41] <shcherbak> STF: if this fails, bash with ls and array should do
[03:41] <nicolas> whats ifconfig telling u ?
[03:42] <Sonic132> Is my fstab set up right? http://paste.ubuntu.com/534141/ Also, How and where do I delete the duplicates of the /home directory that I (w/help) relocated?
[03:42] <mdg2> parallel port video setup anyone?
[03:42] <STF> shcherbak: How do you mean it
[03:43] <wangww> hell;o
[03:44] <willis__> nicolas i'm not sure what to look for but it lists eth0, lo, and wlan0 with a lot of information after each
[03:44] <phrix> hi, I need to add user for samba... no additional like home directory, etc, but only username... any clue??
[03:44] <bastidrazor> Sonic132: /home           ext4    defaults        0       2   is what you should have..
[03:44] <nicolas> wlan0 is the interesting one. does it have an assigned ip at the moment ?
[03:45] <shcherbak> STF: to build list of arguments out of ls and pass it to tar
[03:45] <nicolas> like..inet addr:som.thi.ng.or.another.
[03:45] <TeruFSX> phrix basically create a user, make its home directory /dev/null, and make its shell /bin/false
[03:45] <willis__> after inet addr: it says fe80::215:e9ff:febd:a026/64
[03:46] <Solow_> "no required driver detected for unity"
[03:46] <STF> shcherbak: dam it  i give it up for today
[03:46] <Pun1sh3r> never give up
[03:46] <Pun1sh3r> ever
[03:46] <phrix> TeruFSX, hmm... it's not adding but username right...?? thanks
[03:47] <TeruFSX> phrix begin with a normal user
[03:47] <shcherbak> STF: yes, writing back up software is exausting
[03:47] <nicolas> that looks like the inet6 addr
[03:47] <TeruFSX> manually change their shell and home folder
[03:47] <Sonic132> bastidrazor: Ok changed. How do I reload it to see if that fixed it? It seemed a bit buggy. That's why I asked if it was good or not.
[03:47] <TeruFSX> and delete their home folder
[03:47] <phrix> TeruFSX, what you mean by normal user??
[03:47] <bastidrazor> Sonic132: reboot
[03:47] <phrix> TeruFSX, oh I see
[03:47] <Sonic132> bastidrazor: Ok. Hopefully it works.
[03:48] <bastidrazor> Sonic132: did you change anything else?
[03:48] <nicolas> DHCP connection is set to dynamic or static in the router / modem ?
[03:48] <phrix> TeruFSX, oh... how about login??
[03:48] <TeruFSX> well
[03:48] <TeruFSX> if their shell is set to /bin/false, they cannot log in
[03:49] <Guo_Si> Hey, you know what sucks?
[03:49] <phrix> TeruFSX, oh I see... thanks
[03:49] <willis__> dhcp dynamic in the gateway
[03:49] <TeruFSX> i believe you can blank the shadow password field and make it impossible for them to long in
[03:49] <TheXPhial> vaccuums
[03:49] <nicolas> if u can..set the mac address of the wireless card as trusted in the router and try without wep wpa first
[03:49] <TeruFSX> what
[03:49] <Guo_Si> Hey, you know what sucks in a metaphorical sense?
[03:49] <TeruFSX> what
[03:49] <TheXPhial> black holes
[03:49] <Guo_Si> Hey, you know what just isn't cool?
[03:49] <TheXPhial> lava?
[03:50] <humanMeat> open source software/
[03:50] <TeruFSX> Hot tea
[03:50] <willis__> nicolas thanks i will try
[03:50] <TeruFSX> that was nice
[03:50] <nicolas> np..hope it helps to narrow it down
[03:51] <nicolas> oh ya..check the router log..maybe there are some denied entries in there
[03:51] <Guo_Si> Hey, you know what sucks?
[03:51] <mdg2> setup parallel port webcam?

[03:56] <slax00> hi
[03:57] <Amtrask> Hello all. I have a wireless card that does not work, by default, with 10.04, but it DOES work with 10.10. If I were to install a 10.04 system, upgrade it fully while it's plugged into the ethernet (which works), would the wireless card suddenly be supported? How could I find this out?
[03:57] <slax00> could someone say me what is the best network manager for wireless in linux?
[03:57] <misteralexander> Hello all -- I'm trying to troubleshoot a DELL touchpad, which SHOULD be governed by "xserver-xorg-input-synaptics" package, but isn't.  The afformentioned package is installed and working correctly.  Any ideas?
[03:57] <Amtrask> slax00 I had good experiences with wicd
[03:58] <slax00> yessssss thanks
[03:58] <MikeChelen> how do you stop pulseaudio?
[03:58] <slax00> I was reading about this manager
[03:58] <slax00> :P
[03:58] <Amtrask> it got my wireless working on my laptop when nothing else would
[03:58] <willis__> i've attempted to plug an ethernet cable directly into the router from the pc to see if networking in general is a problem, and it's not connecting that way either, same result as trying to connect to wifi. the network icon moves a lot and then it eventually tells me i'm disconnected
[03:59] <hypatia> willis__: sounds like there might be an issue with your router
[03:59] <hypatia> willis__: have you tried running dhclient from the commandline and seeing what it does?
[04:00] <willis__> my router works with my desktop when it's running winxp and with my laptop right now running kubuntu 10.4
[04:00] <hypatia> the spinny network icon means "i am running a dhcp request"
[04:00] <Amtrask> MikeChelen: just a one time thing? You could kill the process with a 'kill -9 xxxx'
[04:00] <willis__> hypatia dhclient listst a lot of "permission denied" things
[04:01] <hypatia> willis__: you need to do it as sudo
[04:01] <willis__> thanks sorry i'm rather new to linux
[04:02] <Amtrask> Would upgrading 10.04 fully (while it's plugged into ethernet) make add support for my wireless card, which doesn't work under 10.04 but does under 10.10?
[04:02] <willis__> it keeps alternating DHCPDISCOVER on eth0 and DHCPDISCOVER on wlan0 255.255.255.255 port 67 interval #
[04:03] <wangww> hello ,everyone
[04:04] <hypatia> willis__: that's normal; that's your wireless and your wired interfaces
[04:04] <willis__> it finally says "No DHCPOFFERS received. No working leases in persistent database - sleeping."
[04:04] <hypatia> willis__: yeah so it's not getting any offers from the router
[04:05] <willis__> why would it work with every other OS but this one?
[04:05] <hypatia> willis__: that was the next thing i was going to ask you, that's mega weird
[04:05] <willis__> friends bring laptops over, no problems pulling IP, i definitely know how to set up a DHCP network
[04:05] <hypatia> willis__: cool, sorry for the newbie instructions then :)
[04:06] <willis__> no i appreciate any and all help, that wasn't meant to sound proud =) more like pathetic
[04:06] <hypatia> willis__: question: open wifi or closed?
[04:06] <willis__> the SID is broadcast, it uses WPA2
[04:06] <hypatia> willis__: one kinda wacky thing you see sometimes is if it's an open network and other people are using it, you /can/ run out of dhcp addresses
[04:06] <hypatia> ok, not that then :)
[04:07] <hypatia> willis__: one more sillyish thing to try: reboot the router
[04:07] <willis__> wow.... the interface devices died again... i guess it takes 10 times longer when i'm in the actual OS but it still happens... my nightmare is complete
[04:08] <hypatia> willis__: what do you mean the interface devices?
[04:08] <willis__> mouse and keyboard stop working
[04:08] <hypatia> oh bummer
[04:08] <willis__> i had to use the alternate installer because i couldn't complete the normal one due to the same problem
[04:08] <Amtrask> "Oh were you still using those?"
[04:08] <hypatia> i was having that on 10.04, just upgraded to 10.10 today and it went away
[04:08] <hypatia> Amtrask: lol
[04:08] <willis__> but in the installer it happened within a minute or two, in the actual OS i guess it takes 10-20
[04:08] <hypatia> willis__: is this a desktop or laptop?
[04:09] <willis__> desktop
[04:09] <kish> i get the message
[04:09] <kish> *** System restart required ***
[04:09] <kish> how do i find out why it needs to restart
[04:09] <realeyes> whats up in here?
[04:09] <kish> and can i skip restarting?
[04:09] <phrix> #joke
[04:09] <realeyes> let's see some screen shots!
[04:09] <hypatia> willis__: about the network configuration - is it DHCP to a public IP, or a NAT'ed IP?
[04:09] <bastidrazor> kish: from some package you've installed recently, more than likely
[04:09] <Amtrask> kish: you most likely installed updates that have to replace some files that can't be closed until the system shuts down
[04:09] <Amtrask> kish: I don't think it'll ever FORCE you to restart, but you probably should
[04:10] <kish> oh
[04:10] <willis__> i believe it's NAT'ed, but at this point i'm just wondering how to uninstall ubuntu
[04:10] <willis__> it has broken my spirit, after 3 days of attempts
[04:10] <kish> hm i see plymouth has been updateds
[04:11] <kish> updated*
[04:11] <intrader> Anyone, I would like to share tomboy notes, and one or more files. On the first computer I used synchronize from tomboy - that seems to have worked. On the second computer when I start synchronize in tomboy, it find a few duplicates (which I rename), and it looses one of the notes. Then when I start tomboy from Applications or Terminal it aborts after Initializing Mono.Addins. As to the file sharing, I don't see the ubuntu folde
[04:11] <intrader>  r. I am running Maverick.
[04:11] <willis__> is there more to it than erasing the partition? will i need to reformat the disk?
[04:11] <Palace_Chan> I am trying to recover my sda1 which is not booting (i get no init found, try passing init = bootarg) and as per recommendation on the forums I booted from an Ubuntu live CD and tried running e2fsck or gparted check but for both it tells me "device or resource busy"
[04:11] <Amtrask> willis__ erasing the partition and making sure your bootloader can load whatever other OS you want should be enough
[04:12] <hypatia> willis__: i'm sorry to hear that... but yeah, it should just be a matter of formatting the partition :/
[04:12] <willis__> thank you amtrask, i think i'm finally going to have to give a different linux flavor a try
[04:12] <willis__> as much as i really wanted to make this work
[04:12] <hypatia> willis__: you might wanna try the wubi installer for ubuntu
[04:12] <willis__> i did
[04:12] <hypatia> oh, failsauce.
[04:12] <Amtrask> willis__ yeah, sorry things didn't work out for you :(
[04:12] <hypatia> willis__: was this 10.10 or 10.04?
[04:12] <willis__> 10.10
[04:13] <willis__> i was so pumped when the alternate installer finally worked and i booted the system, but i can't handle the dual smackdown of failed network connections and interface devices =) and i take a lot with a smile
[04:14] <Palace_Chan> I also tried making a directory in the live cd and mounting /dev/sda1 there but it freezes trying to mount
[04:14] <CkhiKuzad> How do i view my xchat log files? I cant seem to find them?
[04:14] <iflema> willis__ :(
[04:14] <Amtrask> willis__ hate to recommend another distro, but if you're set on it anyway: Mint is pretty nice
[04:15] <airtonix> willis__, Amtrask mint is just ubuntu with a different theme
[04:15] <willis__> would i expect to encounter the same problems if i tried kubuntu?
[04:15] <Amtrask> airtonix it is, but maybe they changed something that won't hang his system
[04:16] <Amtrask> willis__ it's hard to say, without knowing exactly what's causing your issues. I think the only real difference bewteen the _buntus is the window manager
[04:16] <Amtrask> willis__ so if that's the cause, maybe switching to kubuntu or xubuntu would help
[04:16] <Palace_Chan> i also try making a directory to actually mount sda1 on, then i run mount and it says trying ext4 and just seems to freeze up
[04:17] <SamVib> Can I install ubuntu on a 4GB high speed SD card? Transfer rate is 15mp/s
[04:18] <willis__> thank you amstrask, nicolas, and iflema for all your help
[04:18] <willis__> sorry i meant amtrask =)
[04:18] <Amtrask> willis__ glad to help, even if we couldn't do much :(
[04:18] <willis__> the effort is enough =)
[04:19] <Gnea> SamVib: 15mp/s? wow
[04:19] <SamVib> Gnea, yep
[04:19] <Gnea> SamVib: what's the 'p' stand for?
[04:20] <SamVib> per
[04:20] <airtonix> ...
[04:20] <Gnea> okay
[04:20] <Gnea> so what's a megaper?
[04:20] <airtonix> SamVib, what makes you think you can't ?
[04:20] <Solow_> xD
[04:21] <SamVib> airtonix, well. I thought it would lag a lot.
[04:22] <airtonix> SamRastin, why ?
[04:22] <Gnea> SamVib: under what pretense?
[04:22] <airtonix> SamRastin, and 'lag' is a really vague term
[04:22] <airtonix> ...
[04:23] <airtonix> SamVib, So you haven't even tried yet? (not forgetting alot of people use ubuntu on liveUSB sticks which are much slower than 15 Mb/s
[04:24] <gavriil> umm how do i open a closed port ... on my desktop
[04:24] <airtonix> gavriil, with ufw
[04:24] <gavriil> cud yu elaborate ... pls
[04:24] <airtonix> !english
[04:25] <airtonix> cud is something cows chew
[04:25] <gavriil> lol
[04:25] <gavriil> *could
[04:25] <airtonix> gavriil, sudo apt-get install gufw
[04:26] <gavriil> ty
[04:26] <sec^nd> where can I find the column command to install ?
[04:26] <gavriil> ty
[04:26] <Gnea> SamVib: can your computer boot from an SD card?
[04:28] <sec^nd> its a basic unix command and its missing
[04:29] <sec^nd> its needed for a unix command
[04:29] <kish> i have no idea
[04:29] <sec^nd> -.-
[04:29] <sec^nd> thanks kish that was helpful
[04:30] <kish> why isnt it installed ?
[04:30] <SamVib> How come ubuntu and windows share the same harddrive?
[04:30] <MrAnthrope> Man I really want to play Pharaoh right now...
[04:30] <c0nv1ct> sec^nd, install bsdmainutils
[04:31] <kish> samvib, it's the only harddrive you have
[04:31] <c0nv1ct> sec^nd, i had it by default i believe, i dont recall installing it or seeing it as a dep
[04:31] <UndiFineD> sec^nd, is this what you need ? http://lowfatlinux.com/linux-columns-cut.html
[04:31] <Gnea> SamVib: because the hard drive is partitioned to make it happen
[04:31] <sec^nd> thanks c0nv1ct
[04:31] <SamVib> Yes, I know that. H
[04:31] <sec^nd> c0nv1ct: why doesn't it come installed in coreutils ?
[04:31] <away> where help me with sb 5.1 vx and win xp ?
[04:32] <c0nv1ct> sec^nd, no clue, i've never had to install it in any linux i've used
[04:32] <Sam^Vib> How do I go about unistalling ubuntu? I want to install it on a 4gb sd card.
[04:32] <away> the problem is microphone not work
[04:32] <airtonix> !who > sec^nd
[04:32] <c0nv1ct> Sam^Vib, you dont uninstall an OS, you just reformat
[04:32] <Gnea> Sam^Vib: the first step is to get it installed on the sdcard. you can install it on the card like you would a usb drive.
[04:33] <Sam^Vib> Gnea, so install it on the SD card, then unistall it on the 30GB parition I made?
[04:34] <sec^nd> -.-
[04:34] <sec^nd> thanks c0nv1ct
[04:34] <sec^nd> !thanks
[04:34] <Gnea> Sam^Vib: that's quite simplified, but basically yeah - make sure the sdcard works fine first for a few days, then remove the partition, just in case something goes wrong with the sdcard
[04:35] <dw5304> hello guys
[04:35] <JoshuaP> dw5304: Hello.
[04:35] <Kim> I'm struggling to sync folders using Ubuntu One on my netbook.  "Synchronize on Ubuntu One" isn't a menu option when I right click.

[04:35] <Gnea> !language | billy-the-kid
[04:35] <JoshuaP> billy-the-kid: Not smart.
[04:36] <Sam^Vib> So, can I take my sd card anywhere and change the bios and boot on any PC?
[04:36] <Gnea> billy-the-kid: that's a nice hostmask you've got there.
[04:36] <dw5304> im trying to create a pxe rdp wraper so i can log into a rdp session on server 2008 r2 any one have any idea where i can start w/ this?
[04:36] <Gnea> Sam^Vib: as long as that PC will boot from an sdcard, sure
[04:36] <Sam^Vib> ;D
[04:36] <dw5304> dont know much about it and am looking for infomation
[04:37] <Sam^Vib> thanks Gnea, and #unbuntu for all the help!
[04:37] <Gnea> !usb | Sam^Vib
[04:37] <Gnea> Sam^Vib: check those sites out, lot of good info there

[04:41] <dw5304> 1455
[04:41] <MrAnthrope> ~
[04:41] <IdleOne> MrAnthrope: yeah, it's a little slow
[04:41] <MrAnthrope> haha.
[04:41] <dw5304> lol thats slow?
[04:41] <MrAnthrope> The room I usually hang out in on Freenode has less than 30.
[04:41] <dw5304> ah
[04:41] <MrAnthrope> But I know them all.
[04:41] <dw5304> nothing wrong w/ that
[04:42] <willis__> oh god... i tried to erase the ubuntu partition, and now when i boot i get "error: no such device: cf2192dd-33fd-4d13-b71e-f2bed8c70146. grub rescue>"
[04:42] <MrAnthrope> :(
[04:43] <iflema> willis__ youll need the windows install cd to replace boot or install grub to its own partition to boot winblows :P
[04:43] <MrAnthrope> haha winblows. Is that politically correct?
[04:43] <willis__> yikes...
[04:43] <dw5304> yep
[04:43] <dw5304> its is
[04:43] <willis__> can i do that by booting off the ubuntu cd i've got?
[04:44] <IdleOne> !grub
[04:44] <DrManhattan> ok, can anyone point me on a good howto for blacklisting partitions from the update-grub command? I'd like to just set my windows and osx paritions up manually and have grub handle the multiboot but without the funky stuff ubuntu's bootloader apparently likes to insert into osx86
[04:45] <jamescarr> hmmm
[04:46] <suresh> hey i have a usb internet device .. i have to type sudo wvdial cdma .. thing is somethings going wrong with it a cant really understand
[04:47] <jamescarr> going to try using some of the different xml modules out there to parse a 200mb RDF file
[04:47] <MrAnthrope> Who else in here is a complete Ubuntu novice and just installed the other day?
[04:47] <jamescarr> wish me luck :)
[04:48] <MrAnthrope> Maybe I should find a chat suited for newbs.
[04:49] <jamescarr> wrong channel
[04:49] <IdleOne> MrAnthrope: this channel is suited for all levels of Ubuntu support, if you are looking to just chit chat you can /join #ubuntu-offtopic and there is also a #ubuntu-beginners
[04:50] <MrAnthrope> ooh that last one sounds more what I need. Thank you Oh Great Idle One.
[04:50] <IdleOne> sure thing
[04:50] <dw5304> IdelOne any chance u can help me w/ a pxe disklessboot to rdp?
[04:50] <IdleOne> dw5304: not really but https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DisklessUbuntuHowto

[04:51] <home> hey
[04:51] <home> ubuntu 10.10 has been driving me nuts
[04:51] <home> especially with all the constant freezing and crashes
[04:52] <home> could anyone here have the expertise to help me?
[04:52] <airtonix> !enter
[04:53] <home> For some particular reason, my computer experiences freezing and crashing, I have no idea what causes it. It all started after I had a clean install of ubuntu 10.10, I had problems with 10.04 so.. Now I am having problems again.. please help me :*(
[04:53] <willis__> wow, i can't even follow those instructions to move grub to the MBR, because my input devices keep dying
[04:53] <c0nv1ct> home, crashing with what error
[04:53] <willis__> it seems i have destroyed my computer out of some foolish interest in trying a new OS =(
[04:54] <dw5304> ----
[04:54] <home> I do not know how to diagnose the problem
[04:54] <dw5304> opps sorry
[04:54] <home> Everything just suddenly freezes, I cannot move my mouse and there is no input from the keyboard either, please I am a total noob. Would like to learn how to fix it
[04:54] <home> I have to do a cold reset
[04:54] <airtonix> !who
[04:55] <dime> hey.. i had a question regarding routing.. so i currently have a machine on 2 networks that each have a gateway out.. 1 is ethernet and 1 is wifi.. both the ethernet and wifi have port 22 forwarded to this system.. however, the system will only accept incoming connections from the internet (outside of their respective internal networks.. stuff from inside the netmask all gets to the system fine) from whichever one is currently s
[04:55] <dime> et as the gateway it's using...
[04:55] <dime> is there anyway i can get it to listen to all ip's from both networks?
[04:55] <dime> ufw is disabled
[04:56] <home> Hopefully, I can do my work.. for the next 30 mins without it freezing again
[04:56] <home> I am seriously regarding switching to debian or fedora
[04:56] <c0nv1ct> dime, if your ListenAddress in sshd_config is set to 0.0.0.0 it should be listening on all interfaces
[04:56] <home> in an attempt to fix this problem
[04:56] <cjlacayo> dont you dare
[04:56] <home> thats what I dont want to do
[04:57] <dime> if your system is freezing without any issue in the logs, then it's likely a hardware issue, home
[04:57] <home> Ubuntu 9.10.. WAS PERFECT
[04:57] <home> but
[04:57] <home> Ubuntu 9.10, was the perfect os, everythign was perfect
[04:57] <jisiko> yea my systems sleeps to
[04:57] <home> no crashes or anything
[04:57] <DrManhattan> cmon there has to be a was to tell os-prober not to list my windows and osx partitions automatically
[04:57] <home> But, ever since upgradign to 10.04 and above, only crashes :/
[04:57] <jisiko> i have to do a cold boot if i live it running over night
[04:57] <home> BTW, Gallium3D rocks :)
[04:58] <jisiko> how do i fix this !Home
[04:58] <dime> c0nv1ct, that's what i thought.. but even when it won't listen to outside ip's from that network, it will still listen to stuff inside the network.. let me give that a shot anyways.. i may have to do the same with apache, i'm guessing
[04:58] <dime> i had the same problem actually
[04:58] <dime> it turned out my video card was bad.. so likely not the same scenario
[04:58] <dime> upgraded kernel stopped supporting it i guess
[04:59] <rammyIRC> my virtualbox is no starting up.....
[04:59] <dime> it was a really old ati card.. it gave me some really confusing errors at the time
[04:59] <willis__> wow so i seriously think i'm screwed here... i just want my computer to boot back into winxp, but the instructions to move grub to MBR that somebody linked don't work for me, because i can't mount the filesystem the instructions refer to
[04:59] <home> Win xp.. LOL
[04:59] <iflema> willis__ some hardware is simply not supported properly or at all (usually because of the manu's business policies) try another machine (different hardware)... or not.... boot the livecd and press any key to get the menu (when ya see the accessibility symbol), press F6, escape that and edit the boot string... remove quiet splash and add text and boot with no gui then deal with grub and itll want somewhere t live... best to use win
[05:00] <c0nv1ct> willis__, which filesystem is that?
[05:00] <home> one of my other systems are also messed up :/
[05:00] <willis__> please tell me how to edit the boot string
[05:00] <home> the hard drive isnt even being detected by the BIOS >.>
[05:00] <willis__> sorry to be such a pain
[05:00] <home> 1home
[05:01] <home> !home
[05:01] <airtonix> dime, you need to enable ufw and use its before rules to get routing working
[05:01] <c0nv1ct> willis__, what exactly are you trying to do?
[05:01] <airtonix> dime, https://www.nowhere.dk/articles/tip_nat_with_ubuntus_ufw_firewall
[05:02] <willis__> i have installed ubuntu, but my input devices constantly failed, so i attempted to delete the partition it was installed on, which seems to have also contained grub
[05:02] <c0nv1ct> airtonix, you shouldn't need a firewall just to route
[05:02] <willis__> now when i try to boot, all i get is a grub recovery prompt, and i have no clue how to get it to boot back into windows as it used to
[05:03] <Anusien> I had to go restoring some stuff from backup, so I made my system read-only via ALT-SYSRQ-U. When I reboot, the system is still read-only. When I try a remount, I get this: "mount: / not mounted already, or bad option". Any other answers please?
[05:03] <c0nv1ct> willis__, are you on a livecd now?
[05:03] <willis__> c0nv1ct yes i am currently booted from the livecd
[05:03] <c0nv1ct> willis__, /dev/sda is your boot hdd?
[05:03] <dime> airtronix, ufw is disabled.. enabling it didn't help unfortunately.. let me try flushing iptables
[05:04] <willis__> that is the hard drive that contained windows, but i installed linux to my second hard drive, which i think was labeled sbd
[05:04] <c0nv1ct> willis__, ok, but i want the first bootable drive, this is where grub puts it's data in the MBR
[05:05] <willis__> c0nv1ct, yes sba should be the main bootable drive
[05:05] <dime> flushing iptables didn't work.. sigh
[05:05] <airtonix> dime, i have same setup as you (wlan0 interface leads to the WAN, eth0 leads to my internal network)
[05:05] <dime> airtronix, my eth0 also leads to another wan
[05:05] <c0nv1ct> willis__, ok, i'm going to give you a command that you have to be very careful with, type it exactly as shown
[05:05] <dime> i can hit the box from both internal networks
[05:05] <dime> i want to be able to hit the box from the internet via both networks though
[05:05] <airtonix> dime, that might be the overall problem then. i think you can only have one default route
[05:06] <willis__> c0nv1ct thank you i will be extremely precise
[05:06] <c0nv1ct> willis__, dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/sda bs=446 count=1
[05:06] <dime> i can manually route to both
[05:06] <c0nv1ct> willis__, the bs=446 is VERY important, it will only zero out the MBR where grub is
[05:06] <Anusien> What do I need to do to make my fs not read-only after ALT-SYSRQ-U?
[05:06] <willis__> ahh i will have to try that in a sec, my interface devices died again
[05:06] <dime> but it won't accept incoming connections from both when it should....
[05:06] <c0nv1ct> willis__, if any more than the first 446 bytes are zeroed, you will have data loss
[05:06] <airtonix> dime, turn ufw on and run : watch -n1 -d "tail /var/log/ufw"
[05:06] <banker247> hey guys i ran chkroot kit and it came back with.. wlan0: PACKET SNIFFER(/sbin/wpa_supplicant[1308], /sbin/dhclient3[2381])
[05:07] <banker247> what is that?
[05:07] <airtonix> dime, or even watch what ever iptables log you've got
[05:08] <iflema> banker247: dhcp.... no dramas
[05:08] <dime> hrmm.. i guess i'll check with tcpdump next.. thanks
[05:08] <home> LOL banker
[05:08] <home> rootkits :/
[05:08] <banker247> iFith, it also sais it found these suspicious files... can i show you in pm?
[05:08] <iflema> banker247: dhcp is listerning/sniffing
[05:08] <home> <<< needs help
[05:09] <A_New_Server> home, don't ask to ask
[05:09] <airtonix> banker247, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dynamic_Host_Configuration_Protocol
[05:09] <banker247> iflema, is that normal.?
[05:09] <airtonix> banker247, read the above page...
[05:09] <iflema> banker247: dhclient3 yes.. the other im not sure....
[05:10] <Anusien> I can't find anything on google; how do I restore my filesystem to be rw after using the SYSREQ key to mount everything read-only?
[05:10] <airtonix> banker247, it is if you are using wifi
[05:10] <home> My problem is that Ubuntu 10.10 is freezing, upgraded the kernel, did memtest, nothing wrong is being detected :/
[05:10] <airtonix> home, have you tried using 10,04 ?
[05:10] <home> Yes
[05:10] <banker247> you mean the wpa_supplicant?
[05:10] <home> the problem started ever since 10.04
[05:10] <airtonix> then use that instead
[05:10] <home> all my other computers are fine and awsome
[05:10] <c0nv1ct> Anusien, does mount -o remount,rw not work?
[05:10] <airtonix> ....
[05:10] <banker247> hey air.. i dont see anything about the wpa_supplicant in that web
[05:11] <home> 9.10 worked in this computer perfectly, except no catalyst driver :*(
[05:11] <Anusien> c0nv1ct: Nope. I tried ` sudo mount -o remount,rw /` and got back "mount: / not mounted already, or bad option"
[05:11] <home> 10.04... was bad
[05:11] <home> 10.10 is an improvement however, but the freezing and crashes still happen
[05:11] <airtonix> banker247, that page is for dhcp_client. wpa_supplicant is all about authenticating to wpa or wep wifi access points
[05:11] <banker247> what about?.. it said they were suspicious
[05:11] <banker247> /usr/lib/pymodules/python2.6/.path /usr/lib/xulrunner-1.9.2.12/.autoreg /usr/lib/firefox-3.6.12/.autoreg /usr/lib/jvm/.java-6-openjdk.jinfo
[05:11] <banker247> i think my systems been jacked i'm kinda worried
[05:12] <home> What have you been doing banker..
[05:12] <airtonix> banker247, what makes you think that ? did you install software from a source that is not the offical repos?
[05:12] <iflema> banker247 unless someone was behind the keyboard... not very likely....
[05:12] <banker247> was on unsecure network..
[05:12] <c0nv1ct> Anusien, dang, thats all i had... every time i've alt-sysrq-u it has been followed by a "b" or "o" :\
[05:12] <airtonix> banker247, and ?
[05:12] <home> thats possible banker
[05:12] <Anusien> c0nv1ct: What is b and o?
[05:12] <home> Its better to be in a secure network than a non-secure one
[05:12] <c0nv1ct> Anusien, reboot or poweroff
[05:13] <Anusien> Which one is reboot? I'll try that
[05:13] <c0nv1ct> Anusien, i.e alt-sysrq-r,e,i,s,u,b
[05:13] <Anusien> oh right
[05:13] <c0nv1ct> Anusien, that is the standard safely reboot sequence
[05:13] <Milossh> hello, I have added ppa:voria/ppa yesterday(needed it to get some packages for samsung notebooks) and now I have kernel updates it's offering me. Is it safe enough?
[05:13] <airtonix> banker247, unless you installed software from an non offical repository and unless someone physcially sat infront of your machine and isntalled software without you knowing...
[05:13] <banker247> home,  do you know anything about those files?
[05:14] <banker247> airtonix, i'm sure that didn't happen airtonix
[05:14] <airtonix> banker247, xulrunner is a firefox thing
[05:14] <unistudent> Hello, what's the recommended home folder permissions; I currently recieve: You do not have the permissions necessary to view the contents of "home" -- when viewing in nautilus.
[05:14] <ameridumb> derp
[05:14] <home> !banker247 not really sure
[05:14] <ameridumb> herp derp
[05:14] <airtonix> banker247, so then you've only been installing software from offical repositories ?
[05:14] <c0nv1ct> Milossh, probably safe, maybe they fixed the suspend to ram issue with samsung netbooks
[05:14] <home> banker247, not really sure
[05:14] <SeanInSeattle> Is there a way that I can override the general/non-language syntax highlighting rules for vim?  Or am I limited to overriding it per language in ~/.vim/syntax/python.vim ?
[05:14] <banker247> airtonix, yes not doing anything out of the ordinary and noone sat in front of my comp
[05:15] <Milossh> c0nv1ct: so, it's canonical's repo?
[05:15] <Milossh> or third party one?
[05:15] <airtonix> banker247, then have you googled the autoreg thing ?
[05:15] <banker247> airtonix, but i have been on a series of unsecured networks.. *traveling*
[05:15] <c0nv1ct> Milossh, PPA's are all third party afaik
[05:15] <home> should have just cracked into networks :/
[05:15] <home> I am sure its much safer
[05:15] <airtonix> banker247, and i assume when you're on these 'unsecure' networks that you only send login data over encrypted tunnels (https, ssh, ssl, etc)
[05:16] <LtHummus> Is there a way I can create a samba share from the command line?
[05:16] <banker247> airtonix, just casual browsing airtonix
[05:16] <airtonix> LtHummus, yes
[05:16] <Milossh> c0nv1ct: but wouldn't that mess up things when canonical offers me kernel updates?
[05:16] <banker247> airtonix, not really logging into anything
[05:16] <home> airtonix 9.10 was perfect, 10.10 is also close to being perfect for me
[05:16] <LtHummus> airtonix: how can I accomplish that?
[05:16] <c0nv1ct> Milossh, it shouldnt, they are all based on the same code
[05:16] <unistudent> airtonix: https can be seen before it's sent
[05:16] <Milossh> ok, thanks
[05:16] <banker247> airtonix, i dont understand how i'd send login data over non-encrypted tunnels.. don't all places uses https ssh etc?
[05:16] <home> airtonix: Really gotta find the problem :/
[05:17] <misteralexander> Hello all -- I'm trying to troubleshoot a DELL touchpad, which SHOULD be governed by "xserver-xorg-input-synaptics" package, but isn't.  The afformentioned package is installed and working correctly.  Any ideas?
[05:17] <airtonix> banker247, so then you've not sent your user name and password out across un-encrypted channels ? <<< if not then you're just being paranoid (which is health, but don't let it rule you)
[05:17] <airtonix> banker247, facebook doesn't. (and you'd be silly to use the same username/password for a website that you use on your machine)
[05:17] <banker247> airtonix, i have not no.. never sent my username and pw anywhere
[05:17] <banker247> airtonix, my machine is completely different than anything i'd use anywhere
[05:17] <unistudent> on 10.10 I can no longer work with WPA :(
[05:18] <airtonix> banker247, then you can calm down. i'd spend time googleing what xulrruner wants with autoreg java
[05:18] <heslam> hey guys. what's an ideal wakeups-from-idle per second value using powertop? i'm getting 100 + (sometimes 200 - 300!) and i'm worried it's too much
[05:18] <banker247> airtonix,  i've just heard of instances where whilst connecting to an unsecured network your machine can be breached..
[05:18] <airtonix> LtHummus, in terminal : info samba
[05:19] <airtonix> banker247, unless you can elaborate on that 'hear-say' i'd not worry about it
[05:19] <home> its amazing how many unprotected networks there are
[05:19] <home> WEP is really dangerous also
[05:19] <banker247> they're all over and most people autologin to them!
[05:19] <airtonix> banker247, http://psychocats.net/ubuntu/security
[05:20] <unistudent> I'm stuck with WEP with 10.10 :(
[05:20] <home> WPA2 is good... but it can also be cracked..
[05:20] <heslam> home: BT distribute routers that use WEP by default
[05:21] <tiox> Asking real quick, is there any way I can make the close buttons on pidgin reasonably large when tabs are set on top/bottom?
[05:21] <airtonix> LtHummus, there are various circumstances under which Samba operates, which is the one you are dealing with ? (desktop user shares, server headless admin controlled shares, server LDAP Kerberos Shares ) ?
[05:21] <home> heslam: I know... here bell canada routers have WEP set up by default... its amazing how many networks are in my neighbourhood with WEP
[05:21] <unistudent> heslam: I'm with BT, I've had nothing but problems
[05:21] <Ubuntuguy> How to remove windows from my computer
[05:21] <Ubuntuguy> How can I remove windows now that I have ubuntu?
[05:21] <home> unistudent: whats BT?
[05:21] <airtonix> Ubuntuguy, this is not a windows support channel
[05:21] <heslam> british telecom
[05:21] <unistudent> home: British ISP
[05:21] <Ubuntuguy> ik that
[05:21] <airtonix> !ot
[05:21] <Ubuntuguy> ...
[05:21] <heslam> unistudent: you can set your BT homehub to use WPA2, if you like
[05:21] <Ubuntuguy> I want to remove windows from dual boot with ubuntu
[05:22] <heslam> that's what i've done
[05:22] <tiox> Ubuntuguy, just reinstall Ubuntu after backing everything up and have Ubuntu overwrite the entire drive.
[05:22] <Ubuntuguy> So ubuntu is my only operating system
[05:22] <home> unistudent: It amazes me how unsecure some networks are
[05:22] <airtonix> heslam, format the partition ?
[05:22] <home> Ubuntu is great for desktops
[05:22] <airtonix> home, stay on topic.
[05:22] <unistudent> heslam: I know, but since updating to 10.10 my card no longer works with WPA- a wpa-supplicant error
[05:22] <Ubuntuguy> That's a lot of work, I have to reinstall it again
[05:22] <Ubuntuguy> Why?
[05:22] <tiox> Hmmm.
[05:22] <heslam> airtonix: i'm talking about routers, sorry
[05:22] <airtonix> Ubuntuguy, ? because formatting the partition that windows is on won't remove ubuntu ?
[05:22] <home> airtonix I really need help finding out why ubuntu 10.10 crashes..
[05:22] <tiox> Well, you can use gparted to delete the WIndows partition and resize the Ubuntu partition to max the capacity of the drive.,
[05:23] <heslam> unistudent: ah, right
[05:23] <Ubuntuguy> I though there was a way of removing windows in the terminal
[05:23] <Ubuntuguy> with a code
[05:23] <banker247> airtonix, is there a way to determine if an unsecured network is a possible attack point? - these things are really freaking me out living in the city and all
[05:23] <tiox> Sorry, Ubuntuguy we can talk in PM.
[05:24] <Ubuntuguy> Alright
[05:24] <Ubuntuguy> Invite me to one tiox
[05:24] <tiox> Just doubleclick my name.
[05:24] <slgma> i use ubuntu (with gnome) and i installed k9copy, but i cant read the text because of my color scheme - is there anyway to fix it just for the single app or would i have to change all my colors?
[05:24] <tiox> Or use the /msg command, or /query, whatever applies.
[05:24] <home> airtonix: Do you have any experiences with Ubuntu freezing up?
[05:24] <airtonix> banker247, well are you using samba to share folders ? or do you just use ssh to connect to your other ubuntu machines ?
[05:25] <heslam> home: freezing up in what way?
[05:25] <shawnboy> What native software is recommended for ripping (legal backup) of DVDs in Ubuntu?
[05:25] <jamfade> anyone else having trouble with pidgin and msn?
[05:25] <banker247> airtonix, i'm not connecting anywhere just staying on my local machines and no sharing
[05:25] <airtonix> home, sometimes but i have no idea what your circumstances are, you haven't provide any useful details
[05:25] <airtonix> banker247, then i wouldn't worry.
[05:25] <home> heslam: Freezing as in, my mouse suddenly stops working, keyboard stops responding, everything in screen freezes
[05:25] <heslam> jamfade: if pidgin hasn't been  connecting properly recently, there's a hack to fix it.
[05:25] <home> heslam: I have to do a cold reset
[05:25] <airtonix> home, that could describe quite alot of different scenarios
[05:26] <banker247> airtonix, ok ;0.. thanks i'll keep reading up on it. just got kinda spooked after i ran the rootkit checker
[05:26] <home> airtonix: Well, I could be more specific, but it just happens randomly
[05:26] <heslam> jamfade: http://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/2010/11/fix-pidgin-ssl-error/
[05:26] <airtonix> banker247, you might like to bookmark : commandlinefu.com
[05:26] <shawnboy> home: when that happens can you shutdown using Alt-PrtScrn-REISUB
[05:26] <jamfade> home: memtest first
[05:26] <heslam> home: are you using compiz or any sort of hardware acceleration?
[05:26] <jamfade> heslam: thanks!
[05:26] <Four2zero> i have install proftpd with gadmin and been trying to get my external ip to allow the connection but its not working, any feedback is appreciated.
[05:26] <home> heslam: No
[05:26] <ilovegajaforkyou> hello all
[05:26] <home> jamfade: Did a memtest, was fine
[05:27] <airtonix> banker247, and read the ubuntu security forums
[05:27] <n1gg3r> :D
[05:27] <heslam> home: and does it happen in other OSes?
[05:27] <home> shawnboy: I only did alt-printscreen.. I have no idea what you are talkign about, please explain.. MAybe that can help in determining whats wrong with my system
[05:27] <airtonix> banker247, this one is nice too : http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=510812
[05:27] <home> heslam: No
[05:27] <shawnboy> Four2zero: no experience with that software but I assume you've forwarded ports in your router?
[05:27] <home> heslam: Just this computer, with 10.04,10.10
[05:27] <Four2zero> shawnboy yes portforward the private ip
[05:28] <home> heslam: Although, 10.10 is a big improvement from 10.04, freezing takes longer
[05:28] <n1gg3r> whats the differance in ubuntu and fedora?
[05:28] <home> heslam: I can actualyl get work done
[05:28] <Four2zero> im able to access via local lan just fine but external via web browser is no go.
[05:28] <airtonix> n1gg3r, change your nickname.
[05:28] <n1gg3r> airtonix: no
[05:28] <shawnboy> home: don't know how much help it is, but it at least tells you how hard a "freeze" it is. Next time freeze, do alt-prtscrn while pressing one at a time "busier" backward. see if it shuts down.
[05:28] <Four2zero> he must be a nigg3r !!!
[05:28] <heslam> home: it's not a temperature thing, is it? just a shot in the dark, but some people were complaining about recent versions of ubuntu waking up the CPU constantly and overheating their computers
[05:29] <n1gg3r> airtonix: as a matter a fact fuck you
[05:29] <airtonix> !language
[05:29] <shawnboy> have you tried getting to it from external place using public IP? What happens?
[05:29] <home> heslam: No cpu temperature is perfect
[05:29] <shawnboy> Four2zero:
[05:29] <Four2zero> shawnboy ?
[05:29] <home> heslam: is 48Celsius right now.. which is pretty good for a pentium 4 processor
[05:30] <shawnboy> Four2zero: forgot to put your name to my question couple lines above
[05:30] <slgma> i use ubuntu (with gnome) and i installed k9copy, but i cant read the text because of my color scheme - is there anyway to fix it just for the single app or would i have to change all my colors?
[05:30] <home> shawnboy: I tried to look at the syslogs
[05:30] <shawnboy> What software is recommended for DVD ripping in Unbuntu? Anyone?
[05:30] <slgma> shawnboy
[05:30] <slgma> are you trying to make an iso?
[05:30] <slgma> or a video file
[05:30] <heslam> home: i'm all out of ideas, to be honest. the only thing i could suggest is trying a different graphics card, just on the off chance it IS that
[05:31] <airtonix> shawnboy, apt-cache search transcod
[05:31] <home> heslam: If I take off the graphics card, my monitor wont work, no ports :/
[05:31] <shawnboy> home: Sorry, I'm just trying to give my 2 cents worth. not an expert when it comes to those things. I'd consider video driver issues.
[05:31] <slgma> shawnboy,  are you trying to make an iso or a video file
[05:31] <shawnboy> slgma: want to make VOBs (backup) DVDs I own.
[05:31] <heslam> home: you could always try a spare one, if you can get your hands on one
[05:31] <cappicard> heya folks. has anyone have a subdomain setup in bind9 (maverick)? i have brolly.local and then samba.brolly.local.  both kamisama.brolly.local and kamisama.samba.brolly.local point to the same IP address. I cannot ping kamisama.samba.brolly.local (host not found), but yet host kamisama.samba.brolly.local resolves it fine.
[05:31] <slgma> so you want iso
[05:31] <slgma> which has vobs inside of it
[05:31] <slgma> just use ubuntus default program
[05:31] <slgma> brasero
[05:32] <Four2zero> shawnboy if you mean by accessing via web browser no cant access it.
[05:32] <home> heslam: I agree, but thats unlikely... I might have to revert back to 9.10 :/
[05:32] <airtonix> shawnboy, look through apt-search or use synaptics to look for "transcoding" software
[05:32] <shawnboy> thanks airtonix
[05:32] <slgma> it can rip any dvd into an iso, which contains the vob files
[05:32] <home> heslam: I would hate to change ubuntu :/
[05:32] <airtonix> !enter > slgma
[05:32] <slgma> which can be accessed by mounting the iso or opening it with the archive manager
[05:32] <heslam> home: i was installing mint on an old AMD athlon yesterday and that would randomly lock up after X amount of minutes. but it only locked up when running it off a livedisc. i can't think of anything else :P
[05:32] <slgma> im trying to help someone here and youre telling me im hitting enter too much
[05:32] <slgma> MY BAD, DIDNT KNOW IT WAS AN EMERGENCY
[05:32] <airtonix> heslam, have you played with the boot parameters to adjust how the kernel uses the video ?
[05:32] <home> heslam: My Amd Athlon runs perfectly with ubuntu, with just 3gb ddr2 ram.. and intrgated graphics
[05:33] <slgma> !smd > airtonix
[05:33] <home> heslam: on the other hand.. this computer just... is bad
[05:33] <airtonix> slgma, its not up for discussion.
[05:33] <home> heslam: It all started with 2.6.31 kernel :/
[05:33] <_vaibhav_> I have enabled hibernate on 10.04, but when I do hibernate it dose not save session.. it strats like I shut it down last time.. How I  can make it work?
[05:33] <slgma> wasnt trying to discuss it
[05:33] <shawnboy> Four2zero: again, I'm no expert, just trying get momentum for you. if it were me I'd be using a true FTP client to test, not web browser.
[05:33] <slgma> all i did was respond
[05:33] <heslam> home: have you tried using linux mint? it's close enough to ubuntu that, if it does work, would be an okay replacement, and if it doesn't might illuminate why
[05:33] <slgma> i use ubuntu (with gnome) and i installed k9copy, but i cant read the text because of my color scheme - is there anyway to fix it just for the single app or would i have to change all my colors?
[05:33] <Four2zero> well filezilla works fine.
[05:34] <home> heslam: Thats, what I am thinkign of doing at this point, try other operating systems
[05:34] <shawnboy> Four2zero: firewall issues?
[05:34] <heslam> airtonix: unless you meant to address home, then my problem's no longer a problem :)
[05:34] <airtonix> heslam, ok
[05:34] <Four2zero> no firewall installed on ubuntu
[05:34] <heslam> home: i recommend it. mint10 has a pretty new theme, so that's something to look forward to ;)
[05:35] <shawnboy> Four2zero: what's that about Filezilla?
[05:35] <xangua> !firewall | Four2zero
[05:35] <home> heslam: I really am not sure at this point :/
[05:35] <airtonix> home, i don't suppose you get these problems using a livecd or liveusb ?
[05:35] <home> airtonix: No live Cd's are perfect
[05:35] <home> airtonix: Puppy linux is... AWSOME
[05:35] <home> airtonix: runs perfectly and no freezing or so whatsover
[05:36] <slgma> i use ubuntu (with gnome) and i installed k9copy, but i cant read the text because of my color scheme - is there anyway to fix it just for the single app or would i have to change all my colors? anynone?!?!
[05:36] <airtonix> home, may i suggest that you run one and at the menu to choose what to do, that you press f6 and write down the boot command in the text field and try using that on your isntalled system ?
[05:36] <home> airtonix like choose  to turn of acpi?
[05:36] <heslam> home: you could try testing the drive for errors, too. i suppose that might be the only other difference between your ubuntu install and the others
[05:36] <airtonix> slgma, unfortunately kdeapps on gnome don't play well and you need the global appearance editor for kde to manage that...hopefully you can install kubuntu-desktop ?
[05:36] <home> heslam: How can I test them?
[05:37] <home> heslam: the hard drive of this computer
[05:37] <home> heslam,airtonix: Ubuntu is running fine right now
[05:37] <xangua> airtonix slgma just install qt4-qtconfig and edit the qt4 apps appearence
[05:37] <home> heslam,airtonix: But sooner or later, it will freeze :/
[05:37] <xangua> !enter | home
[05:37] <shawnboy> I can't keep up tonight. Gotta run. Thanks airtonix and slgma for your input. goodnight.
[05:37] <slgma> youre welcome
[05:38] <airtonix> home, and have you left a liveusb running for a couple of hours ?
[05:38] <hxcjonnysniper> my sound stopped working. the sound indicator on the taskbar disappeared and everything. anyone know whats wrong?
[05:38] <home> airtonix: CD, and no :/
[05:38] <airtonix> home, try that first. maybe your memory sticks are having a fault ?
[05:38] <heslam> home: the disk utility has a check filesystem (as well as a way to check SMART data and run self tests. the other command line disk programs will have similar features
[05:38] <willis__> so suppose you had a 4 year old desktop pc with 2 hard drives, and windows xp was installed on the primary hdd. you installed ubuntu 10.10 on the secondary hdd, with the grub boot, but linux never worked properly, and then in an attempt to remove ubuntu you deleted the linux partition on the second hdd, which seems to have messed up the bootloader, and now you boot into a grub recovery terminal. You cannot use either the ubuntu 10
[05:38] <willis__> .10 or the kubuntu 10.4 cds you have, because booting off of either one will result in your mouse and keyboard dying before you can even enter a console command. you have a working kubuntu laptop and a good internet connection. how do you get the desktop to boot again?
[05:39] <home> airtonix: Like I said, the problems started with 10.04 .. and continued to 10.10 (although the errors from 10.04 are gone, the freezing is still there)
[05:39] <home> heslam: Yes, it has a rating of good
[05:39] <netbrain> hey i can put ubuntu on main macbook air
[05:39] <airtonix> willis__, enable the pxeboot option from the desktop (hopefully it has one) and setup your laptop to be a dhcp and tftp server
[05:40] <willis__> airtonix: is that option in the bios? that seems to be the only thing i can effectively access on the desktop
[05:40] <home> heslam,airtonix: I really appreciate your guys help..
[05:40] <airtonix> willis__, if the desktop bios does not allow for pxeboot , then you can use PLOP iso
[05:40] <RexM2> Hi guys... I have a question about Transmission, the bittorrent client
[05:40] <ubuntuguy_> d/c
[05:40] <ubuntuguy_> tiox
[05:40] <heslam> home: i have to go now, but i wish you luck! try mint10, it may help :P
[05:40] <airtonix> RexM2, ask.
[05:40] <willis__> airtonix: thanks, writing all this down
[05:40] <home> heslam: I will burn it in case, better start exploring again
[05:41] <airtonix> willis__, i assume your goal is to repair the grub instance already isntalled on the machine ?
[05:41] <heslam> night!
[05:41] <home> good night..
[05:41] <home> airtonix: So :/ is looking at logs going to help?
[05:41] <RexM2> Ok... I installed Ubuntu last week on my desktop, and it's working great.  Except - all of a sudden, Transmission has disappeared.  It is on the computer, but it doesn't show up anywhere when I start it.  When I download a torrent, now I'm told that Transmission is already running, but I can't see it anywhere.
[05:41] <slgma> xangua
[05:42] <slgma> what you said worked exactly how i wanted it to
[05:42] <slgma> thanks alot man
[05:42] <airtonix> RexM2, make sure you didn't remove the notification tray from the gnome-panel
[05:42] <willis__> airtonix: anything that will allow me to boot into winxp, which is the only os that's been functional and stable
[05:42] <airtonix> willis__, ok i think you'll need to ask about bartPE in ##windows
[05:42] <home> I might have to go back to windows.. xp
[05:43] <RexM2> Airtronix - Im a newbie. How do i do that?
[05:43] <home>  well 7
[05:43] <willis__> airtonix can you just tell me generally what that is before i ask about it?
[05:43] <ubuntuguy_> How to remove windows xp from dual boot with ubuntu 10.10?
[05:43] <home> I find dual booting pretty simple.. except
[05:43] <home> when it comes to WUBI installer
[05:43] <airtonix> RexM2, assuming you havn't changed the default desktop panels, (one on top, one of bottom) there should be a area in the top right that shows a network connection and what looks like a gear stick or a road sign.
[05:44] <airtonix> home, you didn't mention you were using wubi
[05:44] <_jesse_> ubuntuguy_: you wish to remove windows from the system?
[05:44] <ubuntuguy_> Yes
[05:44] <ubuntuguy_> Jesse
[05:44] <home> airtonix: I am not using WUBI, this system is a clean, fresh install of ubuntu 10.10
[05:44] <_jesse_> ubuntuguy_: you can just use gparted and delete the relevant partitions
[05:44] <home> airtonix: The only operating system is Ubuntu
[05:44] <RexM2> Yes, airtonix, that is still there.  The top right shows the ethernet connection, the volume, the time and date, and the message icon.  No sign of Transmission.
[05:44] <airtonix> home, ok thats good...wubi is a horrible blight.
[05:45] <ubuntuguy_> Can you instruct me on how to do so in a private chat please
[05:45] <home> Only, if we all had the knowledge.. to answer
[05:45] <airtonix> RexM2, in terminal do you see transmission listed when you run : ps -fe |  grep [trans]mission
[05:45] <RexM2> I will check now Airtonix.
[05:46] <home> airtonix: Any measures I can take to try to diagnose the freezing problem?
[05:46] <airtonix> home, do some reasearch on boot parameters (its a common thing that needs to be done for laptops)
[05:46] <RexM2> When I type that command in Terminal, I get this:  dt        1724     1 69 00:10 ?        00:25:06 transmission
[05:46] <home> airtonix: This is a desktop :/
[05:47] <RexM2> dt is the name of my desktop
[05:47] <home> airtonix: A tower.. anyways
[05:47] <airtonix> RexM2, ok now, type : sudo killall transmission -9
[05:47] <home> airtonix: My laptop runs ubuntu fine..
[05:47] <airtonix> home, thats not my point
[05:48] <home> airtonix: So boot parameters?
[05:48] <RexM2> OK I did that, Airtonix!  What next?
[05:48] <Four2zero> okay well i re-installed proftpd without gadmin-proftpd never liked it anyhow. But now here's the issue with filezilla is able to access localhost via privat address however will not connect via external ip can we get this to work with proftpd ?
[05:48] <airtonix> RexM2, try starting transmission up from the terminal, run : transmission
[05:48] <RexM2> ok
[05:49] <airtonix> RexM2, this will give you a shortterm activity log
[05:49] <airtonix> home, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BootOptions#Kernel%20Options
[05:49] <RexM2> Run isnt a valid command.. they give me things like zrun and grun as legit commands.
[05:49] <home> airtonix: I think the problem is with the ACPI
[05:50] <airtonix> RexM2, just : transmission
[05:50] <RexM2> ok
[05:50] <airtonix> RexM2, like i have done here : http://pastebin.com/FDGFz3jU
[05:51] <hxcjonnysniper> why does my computer have no sound???? it says my sound hardware is missing. anyone know?
[05:52] <RexM2> OK I typed transmission.  I got this - Message: err: Did not receive a reply. Possible causes include: the remote application did not send a reply, the message bus security policy blocked the reply, the reply timeout expired, or the network connection was broken.
[05:52] <RexM2> And i got that same old popup warning that transmission is already running and that i must stop it
[05:53] <airtonix> RexM2, after you killed transmission first time check that it is infact dead
[05:53] <RexM2> Sorry Airtonix.. how do i check that out?
[05:53] <airtonix> RexM2, sudo killall transmission -9 &&  ps -fe |  grep [trans]mission
[05:53] <shcherbak> RexM2: killall transmission && transmission

[05:54] <Aeronius> query: spell checking works almost everywhere but Lyx. How can I enable?
[05:54] <blackstar> hello, i'm running Maverick, can some one help to make ubuntu delete TMP at startup?
[05:55] <KiiK> airtonix: wget, I need to make a list myself,not sure if there have any way work with Packages.gz
[05:55] <airtonix> KiiK, http://ftp.osuosl.org/pub/mariadb/mariadb-5.2.3/kvm-deb-karmic-x86/debs/binary/ is a webpage.

[05:56] <RexM2> Did you see my last post, Airtonix? I can be patient.
[05:57] <hxcjonnysniper> why do i have no sound hardware all of the sudden???!?? i just rebooted my computer to find out i no longer have sound.
[05:57] <airtonix> RexM2, run that kill transmission command again a few times : sudo killall transmission -9
[05:57] <shcherbak> hxcjonnysniper: lspci to find your card
[05:57] <RexM2> ok will do
[05:58] <hxcjonnysniper> shcherbak: Intel Corporation 82801H (ICH8 Family) HD Audio Controller
[05:59] <RexM2> OK i ran that command about 12 times.
[05:59] <shcherbak> hxcjonnysniper: go to Sound preferences, and check all tabs, also run any player and see is it connected (last tab)
[06:00] <shcherbak> RexM2: you can try to: kill <pid number of transmission>
[06:00] <chungbd> hi all
[06:01] <hxcjonnysniper> shcherbak: it says i have no hardware. im missing the sound notification on my toolbar too.
[06:01] <RickFX> hey gang
[06:01] <chungbd> i want install ubuntu 10.10 without bootloader. What can I do?
[06:01] <RickFX> For a laptop, are the broadcom wireless drivers working on Ubuntu ?
[06:02] <sagaci> RickFX: they might but you'll usually need to install them via Additional drivers
[06:03] <RickFX> ah
[06:03] <RickFX> Right now i'm running centos 5.5 and I'm finding it impossible on my level
[06:03] <RickFX> I use linux at work every day
[06:03] <RickFX> But not to custom compile a specific package from a huge library and copy it to a specific folder and then run a 2 page command and so on
[06:03] <RickFX> :-D
[06:04] <panik> I am forced to use windows :(
[06:04] <panik> Most of the time, that is
[06:04] <shcherbak> hxcjonnysniper: hm, any clue in logs?
[06:04] <hxcjonnysniper> shcherbak: no clue.
[06:04] <chungbd> anyone help me
[06:05] <chungbd> please
[06:05] <shcherbak> hxcjonnysniper: have you tried live cd?
[06:05] <airtonix> RickFX, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CompilingEasyHowTo
[06:05] <airtonix> !ask | chungbd
[06:05] <hxcjonnysniper> shcherbak: boot it from the live cd?
[06:06] <airtonix> RickFX, https://wiki.ubuntu.com/CompilingSoftware
[06:06] <chungbd> airtonix: i want to install ubuntu 10.10 without install grub
[06:06] <airtonix> chungbd, why ?
[06:06] <chungbd> because i have grub before
[06:06] <airtonix> chungbd, nvm i dont care why... i dont know how to
[06:07] <shcherbak> hxcjonnysniper: yes, only thing in my head, atm
[06:17] <tiox> Another satisfied customer, I guess.
[06:17] <tiox> ubuntuguy left happy.
[06:18] <tittn> hello
[06:18] <tittn> i having trouble launching skype on ubuntu 10.10 can anybody help ? http://pastebin.com/HCaCdicH
[06:19] <shawnboy> How do I list available package updates using CLI?
[06:21] <dl551> I installed some updates and lost all sound :(
[06:25] <tittn_> i rly need skype :((
[06:26] <Rockefeller_Sold> tittn, Why ?
[06:26] <tittn_> it keeps crashing
[06:27] <Zorlin> Hey guys
[06:27] <Zorlin> I'm having an issue with sound - any time multiple programs are using sound both will come out distorted and "slow"
[06:27] <Zorlin> they'll be slowed down and sound mildly demonic :P
[06:28] <MintBerryCrunch> Hey this is probably a common problem but I've researched and tried everything...I have no sound on ANY applications, installed 10.4 only 2 days ago. It had sound at first, then I installed pulseaudio and it's gone completely. I ran a debug in the terminal, messed with settings in both volume and pulse, and i turned up the volume in the alsa terminal control thing. Any suggestions?
[06:28] <MintBerryCrunch> Zorlin: I wish I had demonic sounds, haaha
[06:28] <tittn_> lol
[06:28] <gnumerous> sound deamons? hrmm
[06:29] <MintBerryCrunch> Haha
[06:29] <humanMeat> where's the ubuntu off-topic
[06:29] <tittn_> i there a skype channel ?
[06:29] <MintBerryCrunch> Can anyone point me in the right direction to fix the problem? I don't need a step-by-step walkthrough, I'm just out of ideas and wondering if anyone else has this problem
[06:30] <tittn_> try alsa ?
[06:30] <rww> humanMeat: #ubuntu-offtopic
[06:30] <kak> hi
[06:31] <tittn_> http://pastebin.com/HCaCdicH not wanna spamm but just wondering if there is a fix for this skype problem :(((
[06:31] <kak> anybody here?
[06:31] <rdw200169> MintBerryCrunch: well, if sound worked before, w/out pulse, you're probably experiences some sort of issue b/w pulse and alsa.  sometimes, the alsa config doesn't quite match up and pulse can't find the sound card.  you can modify the pulse config to reflect the actual hw device you want it to load for source/sink.  subsequently, you can adjust the module loading perameters for the pulse sound daemon
[06:31] <MintBerryCrunch> I installed ALSA as well as PulseAudio
[06:31] <nit-wit> yepp
[06:31] <MintBerryCrunch> could there be a clash there?
[06:32] <nit-wit> kak wahts uo I just logged on
[06:32] <MintBerryCrunch> also, in the ALSA configuration in the terminal i turned everything up, but it was still negative decibals it said...not sure if that's normal or what
[06:32] <rdw200169> MintBerryCrunch: pulseaudio.org is going to be your best bet on finding what all the things are you can change/do with pulse are.  subsequently, running the pulseaudio sound daemon from the terminal with verbosity turned on will help to identify what issues pulse is having loading modules, identifying sound cards, etc...
[06:33] <MintBerryCrunch> rdw: Now we're talking. I'll look that up and give it a shot, I appreciate the help
[06:33] <sijomz_> wow, this is my first time here
[06:33] <sijomz_> hello people
[06:33] <nit-wit> sijomz_, howdy
[06:34] <sijomz_> I'm a linux newb...is the place to ask questions?
[06:34] <Beef_Inevitable> sijomz_, Ask away
[06:34] <nit-wit> sijomz_, whts the question there is also #ubuntu-beginners
[06:34] <sijomz_> perfect.
[06:35] <sijomz_> ah, I'm just getting around to using ubuntu. just finished installing it
[06:35] <pAth0s> whats up with kismet being from 2008 in packages? :(
[06:35] <sijomz_> I'm primarily an OS X user
[06:35] <nit-wit> sijomz_,  is it woking?
[06:36] <sijomz_> for the most part haha
[06:36] <nit-wit> sijomz_, *working
[06:36] <nit-wit> sijomz_,  excellent in the voice of Mr Burns
[06:36] <rdw200169> MintBerryCrunch: subsequently, there are some apps that are supposed to make pulse work better after its working somewhat.  those would be, earcandy, pavucontrol, padevchooser. yes, its true that padevchooser is somewhat deprecated, along w/pavucontrol.  regardless, they still work fine (and do a better job than anything else)
[06:36] <sijomz_> it's pretty bare, but I want to get the interesting graphics support from Compiz
[06:36] <sijomz_> or Beryl?
[06:37] <MintBerryCrunch> Under the hardware options in the volume preferences it says 1 next to my sound card...does that mean it's the only one, or is it assigned as 1, and 0 is the default?
[06:37] <MintBerryCrunch> Because that could explain it
[06:37] <nit-wit> sijomz_,  i don't use much bling myself but others do
[06:38] <rdw200169> MintBerryCrunch: well, from the terminal you can get a list of what alsa detected via: aplay -L
[06:39] <sijomz_> yeah, I wanna try the bling...Snow Leopard is kinda eh these days
[06:40] <rdw200169> MintBerryCrunch: you can also get a list of detected cards via: cat /proc/asound/cards
[06:41] <rdw200169> MintBerryCrunch: the names and nomenclatures from those two sources are going to be the ones you see referenced in pretty much *every* sound configuration app that has anything to do w/alsa (to include pulseaudio)
[06:41] <kako> rdw200169: I've installed puppy linux on my pen drive after that I've made ubuntu startup disk on it, but it did not boot and saw this message "unknown keyword in configration file.'
[06:42] <rdw200169> kako: thats a isolinux issue related to making a bootable iso, i believe.
[06:43] <MintBerryCrunch> rdw: taking a loot at all that, thanks again
[06:43] <rdw200169> kako: kako you need to find the issue in the iso's configuration file for isolinux, and move forward from there.
[06:43] <rahil> ads
[06:44] <kako> rdw200169 so what can I do ? I think there is a problem in the boot record
[06:44] <istinspring> hello guys. what is the best way to run script from another ip address? (i have dedicated server with a stack of ips and want to split operations around)
[06:44] <ahtmly2k> i have browsing restriction from my country's provider.. How do i bypass that?
[06:44] <rdw200169> kako: i cannot help you more, since i have never made a bootable USB...
[06:45] <kako> rdw200169 thanks
[06:45] <rdw200169> kako: check to see if this is your issue: http://www.khattam.info/solved-syslinux-unknown-keyword-in-configuration-file-2010-09-01.html
[06:45] <MintBerryCrunch> yeah, it's definitely detecting my card
[06:46] <sijomz_> what are some other irc channels you guys recommend?
[06:46] <ubuXubu> ##hi_jack_this is a good one sijomz_
[06:46] <tittn_> are there any replacement programs for skype ?
[06:46] <sijomz_> that looks like a virus...haha
[06:47] <tittn_> the so called sollution on launchpad dont work
[06:47] <kako> rdw200169 thanks this helps.
[06:47] <MintBerryCrunch> titn_: Skype works fine for me, even video. I got it from the standard software center. What distro are you using?
[06:47] <tittn_> 10.10
[06:48] <tittn_> it recently stopped working after update :s
[06:48] <Lancelot> tittn_: they don't update it much, does it just crash?
[06:48] <tittn_> it launches then logs in and disapears
[06:49] <rdw200169> MintBerryCrunch: and, you absolutely *must* read this thoroughly.  its well written, and solves a lot of 'questions' regarding how to troubleshoot
[06:49] <rdw200169> MintBerryCrunch: http://www.pulseaudio.org/wiki/PerfectSetup
[06:49] <Lancelot> tittn_ : fun...have you tried running the windows version under WINE
[06:49] <tittn_> http://pastebin.com/HCaCdicH this is what i get when i launch it from console
[06:49] <tittn_> lol
[06:49] <tittn_> srsly
[06:49] <rdw200169> MintBerryCrunch: and of course https://wiki.ubuntu.com/PulseAudio
[06:50] <tittn_> so fed up with windows atm xD
[06:50] <Bruce_Wayne> Is there any alternative application of "Microsoft IntelliPoint" in ubuntu?
[06:51] <tittn_> but i give the wine stuff a shot but the probem i have is described in forums also so im not the only one with this problem
[06:51] <Lancelot> tittn_ : same...I only use it to sync my ipod and play steam games
[06:51] <xuekan> het guys, when I click the register button of facebook register page,there is no respond, what's wrong?
[06:51] <Lancelot> tittn_ : Yeah, Skype doesn't update it often
[06:51] <Lancelot> tittn_ : I stuck with Karmic
[06:52] <tittn_> you use skype in wine also ?
[06:53] <sijomz_> what's a good IRC client for ubuntu
[06:53] <tittn_> xchat is pretty good
[06:53] <sijomz_> right now, using colloquy in snow leopard
[06:53] <FishFace> Clevercam 360 with USB. Pretty old. Looking for software to detect or use the camera. Listed in lsusb ok.
[06:53] <MintBerryCrunch> Konversation or xchat imo
[06:53] <gnumerous> i use pidgen
[06:53] <rdw200169> MintBerryCrunch: oh, and, pavucontrol is *instrumental* in finding out the answer to: Is it actually playing? This is due to the fact that it will *show* you a vu meter per application regardless of whether or not you *hear* anything ;)
[06:53] <sijomz_> I've heard good things about konversation
[06:54] <MintBerryCrunch> sijomz: it's waht i'm currently using, i'm quite happy with it
[06:54] <MintBerryCrunch> *what
[06:54] <xuekan> what's wrong? here no respond too?
[06:54] <sijomz_> ah ok, trying it right now ;) thanks!
[06:54] <rdw200169> xuekan: you may have better luck on #mozilla ?
[06:54] <tittn_> lol i try to download skype windows version and i get redirected to linux version :p
[06:55] <sijomz_> sweet, my first install haha i always thought linux applications had to be compiled or run through terminal
[06:55] <MintBerryCrunch> rdw: According to that guide i've installed everything correctly. I usually do all my installations by terminal, but for things that use hardware I use the software center to make sure it's done right. According to the site for the perfect installation everything is there.
[06:55] <sijomz_> I'm just using the 'software center'
[06:55] <xuekan> rdw200169:thanks, I do not even know there is such a channel.
[06:55] <Lancelot> tittn_ : No, I'm still using Karmic
[06:56] <Lancelot> tittn_ : The client works fine for me
[06:56] <rdw200169> MintBerryCrunch: then its time for the 'ole pavucontrol test to see if pulse is actually *seeing* any clients trying to send audio to the sound card
[06:56] <tittn_> thats the older ubuntu ?
[06:56] <MintBerryCrunch> rdw: Noob question, how do I get into that? I've looked at the PulseAudio sound options under the System->Preferences tab
[06:56] <MintBerryCrunch> Sorry, looks like I need more than just a point in the right direction :\
[06:57] <rdw200169> MintBerryCrunch: sudo apt-get install pavucontrol && pavucontrol
[06:57] <niteshade> need some help: the trash folder on my USB disk somehow became read-only, and now i can't delete it
[06:57] <tittn_> nope skype 5 in wine fails
[06:57] <Lancelot> tittn_ : yes
[06:57] <niteshade> any attempts to chmod it have been unsuccsessful
[06:57] <Lancelot> tittn_ : are you using 1.3?
[06:57] <rdw200169> tittn_: yes, 1.3 is most important. its a goooood update!
[06:58] <tittn_> yes i addes the sources of wine for latest version
[06:58] <tittn_> makes steam alot faster :D
[06:59] <tittn_> ow lol weird
[06:59] <tittn_> still at 1.2.1
[06:59] <rdw200169> tittn_: you gotta get wine1.3 or it will keep you at wine1.2
[07:00] <DanaG> Argh, every time I boot, I end up with my root mounted read-only!
[07:00] <DanaG> http://itunes.apple.com/us/app/whos-the-carrier/id369314290?mt=8
[07:00] <DanaG> Er
[07:00] <DanaG> Wrong
[07:00] <DanaG> Paste
[07:00] <FloodBot4> DanaG: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[07:01] <DanaG> That's me missing the Spacebar and hitting enter by mistake.
[07:01] <DanaG> Stupid iPod keyboard.  Anyway: http://pastebin.com/Sd62dtvV
[07:01] <tittn_> cos its not stable yet ?
[07:01] <MintBerryCrunch> rdw: Definitely making sense now, I can see that my card is right, but I only see the sound being used in wine and my microphone
[07:02] <DanaG> "mountall: event failed".
[07:02] <rdw200169> DanaG: did you do a disk check?  its possible / is getting remounted read-only due to drive issues (bad sectors, etc...)
[07:02] <BlackCoffee> hello..anyone here knows how i can control the songbird player from the panel?
[07:03] <niteshade> anyone going to help me?
[07:03] <rdw200169> MintBerryCrunch: is the vu meter bouncing around and such?
[07:03] <DanaG> Nope, if I log in and sudo mount -o remount,rw /, it works, and gdm immediately starts.
[07:03] <fodder70> niteshade, reformat it
[07:03] <DanaG> This breakage happened when I switched to SSD.
[07:04] <niteshade> THE WHOLE DISK!?  It's just the trash folder that it lock out
[07:04] <fodder70> you could delete it
[07:04] <niteshade> it doesen't let me delete
[07:04] <niteshade> because it says "read only"
[07:05] <ilab> How can I see the checksum of a package in the repository ?
[07:05] <niteshade> everything but the trash folder is ok tho
[07:05] <MintBerryCrunch> rdw: Under the "Input Devices" the red bar is bouncing VERY slightly, filling maybe 1-3% of the bar
[07:05] <rdw200169> MintBerryCrunch: yes, then alsa probably has a meter all the way down
[07:05] <niteshade> the trash folder is 1gb, and i really need the space
[07:06] <rdw200169> MintBerryCrunch: check with alsamixer on the command line, it shows you all the sliders
[07:06] <MintBerryCrunch> rdw: Right, I had maxed out the sound and also tried 3/4 of the way full with the alsamixer, but it was always negative decibals no matter what I tried
[07:06] <rdw200169> MintBerryCrunch: leave the 'music' or whatever playing and screw with the different sliders until you find it ;)
[07:06] <DanaG> It seems like ubuntu boots so fast, it tries to mount a partition by uuid before it has even figured out the uuid.
[07:06] <kish_> it dies...the network card will actually stop working whenever i do either of these operations: try uploading a jpg to imageshack.us using opera, try scp a file to a remote server or try moving a file to an sshfs drive
[07:07] <kish_> why is this happening? I got 10.10 running on an asus eepc 1514n
[07:07] <niteshade> you know what, i'm really tired, it's late, and i don't have the patience or attention span to wait for my question to be answered when i could be sleeping.  G'night
[07:07] <MintBerryCrunch> rdw: Should the master be 0 decibal gain at max? that doesn't sound remotely right
[07:07] <kish_> nothing but a complete reboot will get the NIC back upo
[07:07] <kish_> i can't ping any hosts
[07:07] <rdw200169> DanaG: ah yes, SSD, so jealous... have you checked the syslog to find what mount said was the reson for the ro remount? i doubt that there wouldn't be *something* helpful...
[07:07] <juk> what's wrong with GoogleEarth Linux version, i can't install it
[07:07] <kish_> i can't do anything
[07:08] <DanaG> It's not REmounting ro... It seems to be never RW mounting in the first place.
[07:08] <rdw200169> MintBerryCrunch: i usually keep Master/PCM/Front at 100% and then control the actual levels per application or via the Pulse master in pavucontrol
[07:09] <DanaG> I may just end up hardcoding sda6 in fstab.
[07:09] <mouse> For some reason the default keyring will only start on reboot and not on system startup.  How do I fix this?
[07:09] <rdw200169> MintBerryCrunch: yes, Master doesn't amplify, just hold back, so when the master slider is at 100% it's not resisting sound throughput
[07:10] <rdw200169> DanaG: you can also change the UUID to make it correct
[07:10] <MintBerryCrunch> rdw: Gotcha. I have firefox and a movie open, no sound while I'm playing with it. However, I did notice that neither are even showing up under the Playback tab
[07:10] <DanaG> It IS correct.
[07:11] <DanaG> It just seems to be too fast for its own good.  Like, mountall tries to use uuid before udev has figured out uuid.
[07:11] <rdw200169> DanaG: fair enough, go with the tried and true /dev/sda6 ;)
[07:12] <tittn> No luck with wine 1.3.7 :(
[07:13] <rdw200169> tittn: dang! hey, at least you can run foobar2000 with equalizer support ;) (a recent 1.3 bugfix ^^)
[07:14] <rdw200169> MintBerryCrunch: getting closer!
[07:14] <tittn> lol
[07:14] <rdw200169> MintBerryCrunch: hmm... could be gstreamer-pulseaudio...
[07:15] <banker247_> i setup an apache2 server.. which user should administer this server?
[07:16] <rdw200169> banker247: you will have more luck finding an 'official' answer to that question in #ubuntu-server ;)
[07:16] <banker247_> thx
[07:17] <Flannel> banker247_: Any user can adminster the server.  www-data is the user apache2 runs as, so if you're having permission problems, make sure www-data can do whatever you're trying to do.
[07:17] <rdw200169> MintBerryCrunch: silly question, but you do have gstreamer0.10-pulseaudio installed, right?
[07:18] <tittn> where can i submit bugs for ubuntu ?
[07:18] <palomer> hello
[07:19] <palomer> I'd like to do something like cp -r D1/* D2
[07:19] <palomer> but I don't want it to copy directories, just files
[07:19] <MintBerryCrunch> rdw: Should, let me check real fast
[07:19] <juk> what's wrong with GoogleEarth Linux version, i can't install it
[07:20] <MintBerryCrunch> rdw: Yes
[07:20] <tittn> does it spin the otherway round ?
[07:20] <MintBerryCrunch> rdw: If that was it I would be relieved and would have slammed my head on the desk, but it's in there

[07:36] <Guest61397> well, it isn't in etc, so...?
[07:36] <jrib> Guest61397: your system would not work without it
[07:37] <Guest61397> hmm..hidden file?
[07:37] <jrib> Guest61397: no
[07:37] <jrib> Guest61397: anyway, what's your real question?
[07:37] <Guest61397> I'm in etc and there is no fstab file.
[07:37] <Guest61397> I'm trying to mount my dvd...
[07:37] <jrib> Guest61397: why?
[07:38] <Guest61397> so I can use it.
[07:38] <Guest61397> dvd rw player...
[07:38] <jrib> !who | Guest61397
[07:38] <jrib> Guest61397: is this a movie or data dvd?
[07:38] <Guest61397> jrib: data dvd
[07:39] <MintBerryCrunch> rdw: Back, it didn't play the usual ubuntu startup music I noticed, but I'm going to give some other stuff a shot
[07:39] <ubuntu_> hello
[07:39] <jrib> Guest61397: just to satiate my curiousity... pastebin your command and the full output when you run: « cat /etc/fstab » in a terminal
[07:39] <MintBerryCrunch> rdw: No, still nothing :(
[07:40] <Aeronius> query: spell checking works almost everywhere but Lyx. How can I enable?
[07:41] <aioobe> Hi! I'm about to install ubuntu on my Lenovo R60. The site recommends me to use 32-bit, but I believe I have a 64 bit laptop. What to choose?!
[07:41] <jrib> aioobe: how much ram?
[07:41] <Guest61397> jrib:  when I type in /etc/fstab, I get the following:  bash: /etc/fstab: Permission Denied
[07:41] <jrib> Guest61397: just to satiate my curiousity... pastebin your command and the full output when you run: « cat /etc/fstab » in a terminal
[07:41] <aioobe> jrib: 2 gb
[07:41] <ubuntu_> When I log into my regular install, I immidiately get a network disconnected you are now offline bubble. wired and wireless networking then does not work. right clicking network manager shows a grayed out networking disabled, and ifconfig shows no eth0 nor wlan0.
[07:42] <jrib> aioobe: no point in using 64bit, it's only useful if you have 4GB or more of rame really
[07:42] <aioobe> I might upgrade to 4 gb... will I get in trouble?
[07:42] <jrib> aioobe: just use 64bit then
[07:42] <aioobe> Ok! There is no troubles finding drivers for 64 these day?
[07:42] <aioobe> s
[07:42] <Guest61397> jrib:  incoming:  # /etc/fstab: static file system information.

[07:42] <maicod> hi I wanted to try out my USB IR-toy with lirc under linux and I followed a guide on the website of my USB IR-toy which recommended MythBuntu so I installed that but it speaks of device /dev/ttyUSB0 and I don't see it in /dev . what can be the cause ?
[07:43] <jrib> aioobe: nope, 64bit has been usable for years on the desktop
[07:43] <FishFace> ubuntu_: Good luck on that. I had the same problem a while back. Never got it fixed :\
[07:43] <aioobe> thanks! Good to know!
[07:43] <jrib> Guest61397: so you have a /etc/fstab ...
[07:43] <MintBerryCrunch> aioobe: Just a heads up, 64-bit has had more problems in the past. For instance, in Jaunty 64-bit it was damn near impossible to install flash without a wrapper
[07:43] <panik> I thought the new kernel allowed for more than 4 GB in 32bit versions now
[07:43] <Guest61397> ok, so how do I mount my dvd drive then?
[07:43] <ubuntu_> FishFace hmm. nothing short of a reinstall?
[07:43] <MintBerryCrunch> Guest: Virtual or a real physical drive?
[07:44] <jrib> Guest61397: have you tried other disks?
[07:44] <Guest61397> jrib:  because, I cannot see it in my etc file???
[07:44] <jrib> Guest61397:  I don't know why you can't find it, it's there
[07:44] <rdw200169> MintBerryCrunch: have you attempted running pulse from the Terminal?  follow the directions to disable autospawn and run from the command line so you can see the output: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/PulseAudio/Log
[07:44] <FishFace> ubuntu_: That is what I ended up doing. But I never asked in here how to fix it.
[07:44] <miststlkr> opening a can of worms here, but anyone have an ID3 tag editor they like to recommend?
[07:44] <ubuntu_> FishFace, let's see were this gets me.
[07:44] <panik> Guest61397: try <<sudo cat /etc/fstab>>
[07:45] <jrib> miststlkr: easytag?
[07:45] <ubuntu_> When I log into my regular install, I immidiately get a network disconnected you are now offline bubble. wired and wireless networking then does not work. right clicking network manager shows a grayed out networking disabled, and ifconfig shows no eth0 nor wlan0. any ideas?
[07:45] <Guest61397> jrib:  DOH!  I didn't go far enough down...it is there.  I was looking at folders.  Wow that was dumb...
[07:45] <rdw200169> miststlkr: MusicBrainz Picard! MusicBrainz Picard! MusicBrainz picard!
[07:46] <Guest61397> jrib:  now I just have to figure out how to actually mount my drive. /sigh
[07:46] <Guest61397> thanks for the help
[07:46] <jrib> Guest61397: have you tried other disks?
[07:46] <Guest61397> jrib: what do you mean 'other disks'...like a different drive?
[07:46] <rdw200169> miststlkr: the package name is 'picard'
[07:46] <jrib> Guest61397: I mean other dvd disks
[07:47] <miststlkr> jrib; rdw200169, thanks.  will look into them
[07:47] <blocky> My Ubuntu 10.10 box hangs whenever I attempt to suspend or hibernate and requires a hard reset. What is the first step in diagnosing this problem?
[07:47] <Guest61397> jrib:  I know you won't believe me after the first fiasco, lol, but my system doesn't see my dvd drive
[07:47] <rdw200169> !picard > miststlkr
[07:47] <jrib> Guest61397: even if you put something in like your ubuntu cd?
[07:47] <Guest61397> correct
[07:47] <ubuntu_> blocky, what is the size of your swap?
[07:48] <jrib> Guest61397: do you not have /dev/dvd ?
[07:49] <Guest61397> not sure...
[07:49] <blocky> hmm I'm not sure... should I see it mounted in df?
[07:49] <Guest61397> jrib:  where would I look?
[07:50] <jrib> Guest61397: ls /dev/dvd
[07:50] <MintBerryCrunch> rdw: I didn't get anything after following those directions,
[07:50] <fourcolors> how do you make a file executable in the terminal on ubuntu?
[07:50] <Guest61397> jrib:  cannot access /dev/dvd:  No such file or directory
[07:50] <jrib> !permissions > fourcolors
[07:50] <jrib> Guest61397: you used the drive to install ubuntu though?
[07:51] <rdw200169> MintBerryCrunch: there isn't anything in the file?
[07:51] <maicod> does anyone know why /dev/ttyUSB0 or /dev/usb/ttyUSB0 aren't there ?
[07:51] <rdw200169> MintBerryCrunch: nothing popped up on the terminal?
[07:51] <Aeronius> query: spell checking works almost everywhere but Lyx. How can I enable?
[07:51] <krunal> so whats this new "v 11" all about
[07:51] <Guest61397> jrib:  actually, no.  I installed ubuntu on another machine.  However, I know this drive works.
[07:51] <fourcolors> can someone tell me?
[07:51] <fourcolors> that doc was confusing
[07:52] <rdw200169> fourcolors: chmod +x <file>
[07:52] <jrib> Aeronius: don't write "query:".  Most people will ignore that thinking you are addressing someone named query.  My guess is because lyx uses qt, not gtk.  Look into that
[07:52] <fourcolors> thanks rdw200169
[07:52] <jrib> Guest61397: how?
[07:52] <Aeronius> oh... thanks!!!
[07:52] <krunal> By the way my new Dell XPS 15 arrives next week - and I can't wait to install Ubuntu on it....i'll report my progress
[07:52] <Guest61397> jrib:  I installed ubuntu on another computer, pulled out the hard drive, and put in on this computer.
[07:53] <krunal> can someone tell me why browsing web browsers is soooo slow on ubuntu ?
[07:53] <jrib> Guest61397: ok, but how do you know the dvd drive works?
[07:53] <TheSarge> So are we supposed to use the kernel patch that Linus put out? Or the bashrc route?
[07:53] <rdw200169> Guest61397: in my experience, it is best to re-install for new motherboards ;) save you a *lot* of headache later
[07:53] <Guest61397> Oh, lol, because it was working before with the other hard drive I had on this machine, like 2 days ago.
[07:53] <MintBerryCrunch> rdw: Nothing popped up at all, which took me by surprise. I followed the directions using both terminals, too
[07:54] <rdw200169> MintBerryCrunch: alright, just run $ pulseaudio -D
[07:54] <jrib> Guest61397: I guess you have to go explore udev.  /etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-cd.rules is where I would start.  (doing other things at the moment)
[07:54] <rdw200169> MintBerryCrunch: from the terminal, or, $ pulseaudio -vvvv -D
[07:54] <MintBerryCrunch> rdw: Daemon startup failed
[07:55] <Guest61397> jrib:  fair enough.  I was actually using ubuntu to verify if my NIC was bad (it wasn't).  I had tried a wireless NIC and it wouldn't work either.  It apparantly is a software issue considering I've done everything else possible (drivers, tcp/ip, winsock) and nothing worked.
[07:55] <rdw200169> MintBerryCrunch: well, first, ps -AF | grep pulseaudio , to make sure it isn't already running
[07:55] <Guest61397> jrib:  I thought I'd give ubuntu a try since I had it on here but, I think I'll just go pick up w7...
[07:55] <FishFace> Guest61397: Its unlikely that Ubuntu will not see any CD or DVD drive. I would say go check your connections once more and make sure you see it in your BIOS setup screen.
[07:55] <Guest61397> jrib:  thank you very much for the help, much appreciated.  /salute.
[07:55] <jrib> Guest61397: you could try installing it without swapping hard drives and see if it just works
[07:56] <MintBerryCrunch> rdw: Oh it is, must have turned it back out without realizing it. When it didn't do anything I closed the terminal and checked another video just in case
[07:56] <Guest61397> jrib:  again, thanks a lot...i'll check it out :)
[07:56] <rdw200169> Guest61397: i agree, whole-heartedly, ... install fresh on that comp ...
[07:56] <TheSarge> krunal: I have a Deminsion 15
[07:56] <TheSarge> Or however you spell it
[07:56] <TheSarge> Ubuntu runs great on it
[07:57] <TheSarge> i3 is perfect for bettery life
[07:57] <rdw200169> MintBerryCrunch: yuppo, easy, killall pulseaudio, pulseaudio -vvvv -D
[07:57] <krunal> nice
[07:57] <krunal> TheSarge, desktop right?
[08:01] <c2tarun> i installed xnest and opened emacs into it by my chroot environment of hardy. i want gnome to be installed in hardy.. how can i do that???
[08:01] <MintBerryCrunch> rdw: Killed it, did the instructions again. I did what it said for the first window, nothing popped up. Did the second window, it just says "Welcome to PulseAudio!" The next step is reproduce the bug, does that mean I should try playing a video again?
[08:03] <rdw200169> MintBerryCrunch: hmm... with pulse running in one terminal, run pacmd in the other
 rdw: Killed it, did the instructions again. I did what it said for the first window, nothing popped up. Did the second window, it just says "Welcome to PulseAudio!" The next step is reproduce the bug, does that mean I should try playing a video again?
[08:04] <rdw200169> MintBerryCrunch: you should get a >> indicating that you can type stuff
[08:04] <c2tarun> i installed xnest and opened emacs into it by my chroot environment of hardy. i want gnome to be installed in hardy.. how can i do that???
[08:04] <MintBerryCrunch> rdw: I'm tempted just to do a fresh install again at this point...what order should I install ALSA and/or Pulse?
[08:04] <MintBerryCrunch> rdw: I MUST have messed up somewhere
[08:04] <rdw200169> MintBerryCrunch: well, they're both installed default with Ubuntu Desktop
[08:05] <MintBerryCrunch> rdw: Ummm...I definitely installed them practically immediately, maybe that's how I screwed it up
[08:05] <MintBerryCrunch> rdw: Should I uninstall them both and reinstall? Can't possibly make it worse
[08:06] <rdw200169> MintBerryCrunch: well, you could purge pulseaudio and re-install to get the configuration files back ? sudo apt-get purge pulseaudio* or something like that
[08:06] <rdw200169> MintBerryCrunch: you *must* purge though or all the config's remain unchanged after re-installation
[08:07] <MintBerryCrunch> gotcha
[08:07] <MintBerryCrunch> rdw: I think I'm just going to do a reinstall
[08:07] <c2tarun> please help me someone :(
[08:07] <rdw200169> MintBerryCrunch: heck, i'm surprised you had to install it at all, i know that 10.10 comes with it by default
[08:07] <c2tarun> need to install gnome in a hardy chroot environment.
[08:08] <MintBerryCrunch> rdw: It probably did come with it and I didn't bother to notice
[08:08] <MintBerryCrunch> rdw: I'm running 10.4 but that probably comes with it as well
[08:08] <rdw200169> MintBerryCrunch: one side point... did you happen to look up your motherboard to see if there were any sound issues online?
[08:09] <rdw200169> MintBerryCrunch: or your desktop model, etc..., usually issues with (even rare) hardware usually ends up somewhere in the Ubuntu Forums
[08:09] <MintBerryCrunch> rdw: I've been using Ubuntu off and on with this comp since Intrepid, never had issues this bad before. And like I said, it was working before I messed with it, I'm almost convninced it was a user error somewhere along the line
[08:10] <maicod> hi when I do lsusb I see my usb device but I don't see /dev/ttyUSB0 or /dev/usb/ttyUSB0 . how can that be ?
[08:10] <karthick87> I am getting this error while installing packages "Waiting for other software manager to quit"..Can anyone help?
[08:11] <roccity_> karthick87, do you have synaptic ot the ubuntu software center open?
[08:11] <rdw200169> MintBerryCrunch: i can't say i haven't had the same issues before!  I've buckled and re-installed a few times ... just make sure you save /home!
[08:11] <karthick87> roccirt_: Nope
[08:11] <karthick87> roccity_: Nope
[08:12] <roccity_> then it maybe a lock. check in system-->Administration-->system monitor
[08:12] <roccity_> karthick87, look under processes
[08:12] <MintBerryCrunch> rdw: Yeah, I'm downloading 10.10 now, backing up a few things on the external in the meantime. Luckily it was just 2-3 days ago I did the install so it's not like I'm about to lose a lot of data
[08:13] <roccity_> karthick87, anything that says apt-get or synaptic?
[08:13] <Grav> hi after update my folders opens in geany php editor... How can I open folders as folders ?
[08:14] <rdw200169> MintBerryCrunch: good deal! i generally keep a separate /opt so i can use some of my 'special' apps b/w distros, like foobar2000
[08:14] <karthick87> roccity_: I have checked but no such process
[08:15] <rdw200169> MintBerryCrunch: i used to re-use the same /home over and over and over, but now i find that if i start w/a fresh /home and migrate old configs carefully, i have a better looking/feeling desktop
[08:15] <MintBerryCrunch> rdw: Good advice, thanks
[08:16] <rdw200169> MintBerryCrunch: heh, its good to live in a world where 1TB drives are $60...
[08:17] <roccity_> well you can open a terminal and type as root rm /var/lib/dpkg/lock
[08:17] <roccity_> br carefulo using root though
[08:18] <roccity_> karthick87, this should remove the lock that you are talking about
[08:18] <MintBerryCrunch> rdw: When I was a senior in Highschool I bought a 1gb flash drive for $80...we've come a long way since then :P
[08:18] <skpl> hi, when i login to ubuntu it asks for a password to unlock the default keyring but i dont know it. can anyone help?
[08:19] <napster> Where can I get redhat-artwork_0.96-2_i386.deb file from?
[08:19] <rdw200169> skpl: it should be the same as your login password
[08:19] <napster> or any later version
[08:19] <MintBerryCrunch> skpl: The password you used to log in I would assume
[08:20]  * napster just need the old fedora bluecurve theme on his ubuntu machine ;)
[08:20] <solidrock> skpl: you may delete you keyring
[08:21] <imap_303_30> hello
[08:21] <__Kanu> hai all
[08:21] <imap_303_30> how well does a radion hd 5870 work on ubuntu?
[08:23] <ubuXubu> skpl To deal with this problem, run seahorse/"Passwords and Encryption" and go to its "preferences" in the menu. That's the (mostly hidden) location that manages the keyrings.
[08:23] <Bruce_Wayne> imap_303_30: why are you asking this.. are you facing some problems?
[08:23] <ubuXubu> imap_303_30, i have that card in my laptop works great
[08:24] <imap_303_30> I want to run ubuntu, but i heard from my cousin that performance of my graphics card could suffer greatly with linux
[08:24] <mkquist> ok so what do I need to intstall to compile c programs?
[08:24] <imap_303_30> i would want to run WoW in wine and get the easy 90+ fps i am getting on windows
[08:25] <napster> I just need the old fedora bluecurve theme on my ubuntu machine ;) And I'm unable to figure out a way to do it! Please help me out. I'm on 10.10
[08:25] <ubuXubu> imap_303_30, ubuntu knows that card and will offer you a the non gnome drover for it.
[08:25] <juk> mkquist: gcc
[08:25] <ubuXubu> driver*
[08:25] <MintBerryCrunch> imap: Not necessarily. I've got a decent nvidia geforce that I *swear* runs wow smoother than windows. FAR less lagspikes, and I just got rid of windows 7
[08:25] <TheSarge> How can I be sure Ubuntu is taking full use of all 4 logical cores?
[08:25] <TheSarge> I read I might need to enable smp support or something?
[08:25] <imap_303_30> hmm
[08:25] <imap_303_30> i'm going to have to try a dual boot
[08:26] <karthick87> roccity_: Thank you :)
[08:26] <roccity_> karthick87, did it work?
[08:27] <roccity_> karthick87, was it a lock
[08:27] <krunal> does ubuntu come pretty well tweaked for internet speeds? or are there any tweaks i can apply
[08:27] <b0nn> hrm, anyone got unity working on their netbook?
[08:27] <ubuXubu> imap_303_30, the only issue i have had with ubuntu and the 5870 card is on th boot up-splash screen, there is a bug there, it flashes briefly during the boot up, there is a fix for that though.
[08:27] <b0nn> if so, what did you do to get it going?
[08:27] <Ali_nz> After upgrading from v9 to v10.04 I get a graphics error when I boot and no keybaord or mouse. I can however get to command line with networking - anyone know how to fix this?
[08:27] <FishFace> krunal: You don't have to do anything. It will handle what is thrown at it
[08:27] <karthick87> roccity_: Yes that did the trick
[08:28] <Ali_nz> (keybaord/mouse working at command line)
[08:28] <imap_303_30> something i wouldn't care about, thanks!
[08:28] <roccity_> karthick87, cool no prob
[08:28] <imap_303_30> now to find a torrent download :p
[08:28] <mkquist> juk:  and how?  i did apt-get install build-essential and still having problems
[08:28] <karthick87> roccity_: Actually what the above command will do?
[08:28] <ubuXubu> imap_303_30, same here i didnt even bothr trying to fix it...card works great.
[08:28] <juk> mkquist: what problem
[08:28] <Shai124> Hello , does someone can recommend me on good tool which i can use to reduce flv file size ?
[08:28] <G1Bs0N> is taking suggestions for good samba.conf settings
[08:29] <juk> mkquist: cc windows8.c
[08:30] <imap_303_30> ahhh, nice and fast torrent
[08:30] <imap_303_30> gatta love torrents
[08:30] <roccity_> karthick87, huh what the rm .... command?
[08:30] <krunal> thank you FishFace
[08:30] <FishFace> krunal: Yep :)
[08:30] <ubuXubu> imap_303_30, ru going for 1004 or 1010
[08:30] <karthick87> roccity_: yes
[08:30] <roccity_> karthick87, it removes any lock on dpkg that you might have
[08:30] <imap_303_30> i'm going to go with the latest, 1010
[08:30] <krunal> im a first time linux user - glad to be with ubuntu
[08:31] <roccity_> karthick87, because you can only run one instance of apt-get
[08:31] <imap_303_30> or would you recommend something else?
[08:31] <ubuXubu> imap_303_30, ok my experience wit hthe 5870 is with 1004 but that shouldnt matter
[08:31] <sirlark> hi, was installing some packages via synaptic when the power cut out. now I can't install or remove. I'm told to run dong --configure - a, but no change
[08:31] <roccity_> karthick87, so if this crashes or whatever it might leave the lock on and just shut down the gui or whatever
[08:31] <solidrock> sirlark : dpkg --reconfigure -a
[08:32] <karthick87> roccity_: fine :)
[08:32] <sirlark> dong = dpkg stupid iPhone auto correct
[08:32] <solidrock> ahaha
[08:32] <solidrock> lol
[08:32] <mkquist> juk: stdio.h no such file or directory
[08:33] <DASPRiD> sirlark, haha
[08:33] <karthick87> What codec is required for playing .ts files??
[08:33] <juk> mkquist: pastebin your code, im not telepath
[08:33] <mkquist> juk: k
[08:34] <juk> mkquist: and join #programming to paste it
[08:36] <mkquist> juk:  the error is 'stdio.h: No such file or directory'
[08:37] <juk> mkquist: read prevouse two posts
[08:37] <Shai124> can ffmpeg reduce FLV file size ?
[08:41] <ikonia> mkquist: what are you trying to build ?
[08:43] <FishFace> Shai124: I would give Avidemux a try. Its about the best thing I have used for any video work. Never did flv's though.
[08:46] <G1Bs0N> my fstab looks like scribble
[08:46] <__Kanu> how can i do a apt-get through a proxy in my terminal in ubuntu 10.04?
[08:47] <eablount> hello
[08:47] <__Kanu> answer pleaseeeeeeeeeeee
[08:48] <eablount> hello anyone here

[08:50] <eablount> SLI
[08:50] <G1Bs0N> video card i have a whole network i need to mount
[08:50] <ubuXubu> did ubuntu offer you a driver after the installation
[08:50] <eablount>  I cannot get through installation beacsue I cannot select next and stuff
[08:51] <eablount> the menus are way too big
[08:51] <ubuXubu> one moment
[08:51] <Keshi> Hello I was dusting my keyboard and now gnome is high contrast mode.
[08:51] <Keshi> How do I "fix" it?
[08:52] <llutz_> Keshi: super+N
[08:52] <G1Bs0N> super user
[08:53] <__Kanu> how can i do a apt-get install through a proxy in my terminal in ubuntu 10.04?
[08:53] <iflema> eablount try hold <alt> + left click and move the mouse up....
[08:53] <__Kanu> please any one answer , its really urgent
[08:53] <aioobe> can I somehow search for files not owned by me?
[08:53] <llutz_> __Kanu: export http_proxy="yourproxy"
[08:53] <aioobe> (in my home directory)
[08:53] <Keshi> llutz: Was super+m is the end. Ty.
[08:53] <G1Bs0N> locate
[08:53] <G1Bs0N> find
[08:53] <iflema> eablount on a window you need to see the bottom of, that is...
[08:53] <__Kanu> then?
[08:54] <G1Bs0N> what proxy
[08:54] <Mario1776> Hello. This is probably a dumb question but... in Ubuntu Netbook Remix, can the file system be accessed by the user? When saving or opening files it is possible to see the file system but for the life of me I have not been able to figure out where there is a manager or explorer for the user to access the file system.
[08:54] <llutz_> __Kanu: sudo apt-get whatever
[08:54] <folivora> __Kanu: echo 'Acquire::http::Proxy "http://wwwproxy.address:8080";' > /etc/apt/apt.conf
[08:54] <Gnea> Mario1776: yeah. what version did you install?
[08:54] <Mario1776> 10.10
[08:55] <ubuXubu> eablount, so where exactly are you in the installation process right now? if u have menus it sounds like its installed?
[08:55] <SuperPaco69> does any one knows about aircrack running on ubuntu??
[08:55] <__Kanu> __Kanu: echo 'Acquire::http::Proxy "http://wwwproxy.address:8080";' > /etc/apt/apt.conf  ???
[08:55] <G1Bs0N> anyone on fstab and nodes of machines in the same workgroup?
[08:56] <Gnea> Mario1776: haven't gotten that far, I'm sticking with 10.04. There's a panel with icons on it and one of them says "files & folders" that's usually how I access it
[08:56] <eablount> well I cannot select at the bottom of the menus so I went into try
[08:56] <ibyss> Can someone help me with actually getting my "emerald"  theme working with compiz? Each time I run "emerald --replace", my screen refreshes, and all my "close/minimize/etc" buttons disappears from the windows. Then the screen refreshes again with the "buttons" reappearing.
[08:56] <folivora> __Kanu: that will add your proxy into you apt.conf :)
[08:56] <G1Bs0N> pretty much how do map uniux group admin to smb shares ?
[08:57] <G1Bs0N> \
[08:57] <folivora> ofc you need to replace wwwproxy... with correct proxy address
[08:57] <__Kanu> my proxy address is 10.47.1.101 , can u give me how to configure in the file?
[08:57] <eablount> it is seeing the driver I need to install but I cannot get to the bottom of the menu to sletec install it
[08:57] <__Kanu> and port is 3128
[08:58] <Mario1776> 10.10 has the files and folders tab, but it is limited to basic folders like music videos documents, no option to dig any deeper
[08:58] <eablount> I cannot even rezie the window
[08:58] <eablount> half the window is at the bottom and I cannot go any higher
[08:59] <ubuXubu> The most intuitive way to shorten the menus (At least the "Applications" and "System" menus) would be to simply add more sub-menus eablount
[08:59] <eablount> I tried that
[08:59] <eablount> cannot select okay
[08:59] <eablount> the menus are way too big
[09:00] <Gnea> Mario1776: no up-arrow?
[09:00] <iflema> eablount did you try: hold <alt> + left click and move the mouse to adjust window position?
[09:00] <eablount> there we go that is what I was looking for
[09:00] <eablount> thanks
[09:00] <__Kanu> my proxy please................?
[09:00] <eablount> that is all I needed
[09:01] <Gnea> Mario1776: at the top there isn't an icon to click on to browse the whole computer and networks?
[09:01] <llutz_> __Kanu: export http_proxy="ip.og.xour.proxy:port"
[09:01] <tittn> hello i try again does anybody know how to fix skype crash http://pastebin.com/HCaCdicH
[09:02] <__Kanu> my proxy address is 10.47.1.101 and port is 3128
[09:02] <__Kanu> can u give me the http_proxy value?
[09:02] <llutz_> __Kanu: so you know what you have to fill in
[09:02] <__Kanu> yes yes
[09:02] <__Kanu> i have given all cominations and it is not working here

[09:06] <llutz_> !pm | __Kanu
[09:06] <karthick87> I wanna install both ubuntu 10.04 and 10.10 on same system like dual boot.Now i m using ubuntu 10.04..Any advive..??
[09:06] <Gnea> usually I just disable the bluetooth hardware
[09:06] <ikonia> karthick87: totally seperate partitions, and use 10.10's grub
[09:06] <agentsmith> hey folks, ubuntu noob here ... quick question: how do you share files/folders over a network between linux computers only?
[09:06] <Gnea> karthick87: it'd be like dualbooting with windows - just set it up and go
[09:06] <tittn> sudo /etc/init.d/bluetooth stop ?
[09:06] <llutz_> !nfs > agentsmith
[09:06] <Gnea> agentsmith: typically with NFS
[09:06] <ikonia> agentsmith: nfs, samba,
[09:07] <G1Bs0N> agent smith
[09:07] <agentsmith> yes
[09:07] <phrix> hi...
[09:07] <G1Bs0N> eello
[09:07] <G1Bs0N> ello

[09:08] <DASPRiD> phrix, yes, someone can.
[09:08] <ikonia> karthick87: install to two seperate partitions, and make sure you are using the grub boot loader from 10.10
[09:08] <G1Bs0N> dont follow suse instructions
[09:09] <Gnea> !samba | phrix
[09:09] <tmkd> hi

[09:09] <Sibo> hi
[09:09] <Gnea> !dualboot
[09:09] <G1Bs0N> !root
[09:09] <ikonia> there is nothing wrong with swat
[09:09] <FishFace> Anyone have a tip while using VLC and .wmv's? System load goes above 20.00 and about as unstable as it can be.
[09:10] <Gnea> G1Bs0N: SWAT works quite well. being old means it's more solid.
[09:10] <G1Bs0N> i was hating
[09:10] <Gnea> hate is for the weak.
[09:10] <G1Bs0N> apt-get swat?
[09:10] <karthick87> ikonia: thank you
[09:10] <G1Bs0N> i wont comment
[09:10] <lowebb> Hey Guys, Here's one for you. When will ubuntu get a decent oulook for exchange email alternative
[09:11] <Gnea> lowebb: when microsoft opens up its protocol
[09:11] <llutz_> lowebb: hopefully never
[09:11] <G1Bs0N> lowebb:AD-HOc
[09:12] <lowebb> Gnea: OWA: fundamentals are there, Evolution looks like its from the 80's
[09:12] <lowebb> And has more bugs than a swamp
[09:12] <tittn> i uninstalled bluetooth but same story skype keeps shutting down after login
[09:12] <Gnea> lowebb: 'OWA'?
[09:12] <rww> Outlook Web Access
[09:12] <Gnea> ah yes
[09:13] <madurax86> whats the most stable kernel for an i5 450M?
[09:13] <ikonia> madurax86: the current ubuntu stable one
[09:13] <Gnea> madurax86: anything that comes with recent Ubuntu releases will work with it
[09:13] <eablount> yeah I am loading 10.10
[09:13] <madurax86> ikonia: im having alot of troubles with that
[09:13] <G1Bs0N> more on swat
[09:13] <eablount> is the version I am loading on my desktop
[09:13] <ikonia> madurax86: define trouble
[09:13] <ikonia> G1Bs0N: do you want/need something ?
[09:14] <madurax86> ikonia: it gets stuck in randomly
[09:14] <G1Bs0N> yea where do i start
[09:14] <G1Bs0N> hmm
[09:14] <Gnea> start doing what?
[09:14] <ikonia> G1Bs0N: you ask a question
[09:14] <madurax86> ikonia: nothing is found on kern.log
[09:14] <ikonia> G1Bs0N: as I told you yesterday twice
[09:14] <G1Bs0N> rofl
[09:14] <ikonia> madurax86: what do you mean by "stuck"
[09:14] <G1Bs0N> dont ground me'
[09:14] <Gnea> !attitude | G1Bs0N
[09:14] <ikonia> G1Bs0N: I'm not laughing, this is a support channel, you want support ask for it - you want to chat, don't do it in this channel
[09:15] <Gnea> G1Bs0N: if you don't want to be treated like a child, don't act like one.
[09:16] <madurax86> ikonia: not responsive, 2.6.35-22 and 2.6.35-23 doesnt respond to sysrq + alt + b but 2.6.37-5 does but the problem stays with all kernels
[09:16] <ikonia> madurax86: where did you get 2.6.37-5 ?
[09:17] <madurax86> ikonia: xorg-edgers ppa
[09:17] <ikonia> madurax86: ok - so now that's totally unsupported
[09:17] <eablount> btw thanks for the help earlier.  I prolly be back if I have issues that cannot be answered in my home channel
[09:17] <eablount> you have a good day wherever you are
[09:17] <madurax86> ikonia: oh anyways 2.6.35-23 and 22 are both having the problem
[09:18] <ikonia> madurax86: when they freeze, does caps lock still work on your keyboard ?
[09:18] <madurax86> ikonia: i havent tried, tell me some stuff to try the next time it gets frozen
[09:18] <noelferreira> can anyone help me with 10.10 wireless conection? it says i have a local conection and it is not compatible with ahavi detection server. do i need this process running?
[09:18] <solidrock> do you have great torrent site
[09:18] <madurax86> i filed a bug too but i dont think that was informative
[09:19] <ikonia> madurax86: caps lock shows if the whole system is locked as a hardware device or if the kernel is still running, but not working (just as guide)
[09:19] <Gnea> solidrock: ubuntu.com has a number of torrents available
[09:20] <madurax86> ikonia: and it gets frozen more often in 2.6.35-22
[09:20] <Mohammad[B]> my ubuntu is 10.10, i have a problem with hibernate, it is hibernated very good but when i start again the machine this has been reset and i see just a restarted ubuntu without my changes, please help me
[09:20] <ikonia> madurax86: is all your hardware fully supported
[09:20] <ikonia> madurax86: are you overclocking
[09:20] <ikonia> madurax86: do you have ok healing
[09:20] <Gnea> Mohammad[B]: did hibernate work with 10.04?
[09:20] <ikonia> madurax86: is your PSU up to the job
[09:21] <Mohammad[B]> Gnea: no
[09:21] <ikonia> madurax86: healing I meant "power"
[09:21] <Gnea> Mohammad[B]: how much ram and swap do you have?
[09:21] <llutz_> Mohammad[B]: check /etc/initramfs-tools/conf.d/resume for the UUID of your swap
[09:21] <madurax86> ikonia: 2.6.37-5 responded to sysrq+alt+b that means the kernel  is running right?
[09:21] <ikonia> madurax86: those are good things to check, run memcheck off your livecd too
[09:21] <madurax86> ikonia: this is a notebook, asus k42jc
[09:21] <Mohammad[B]> Gnea: 2 GB of ram and 4 GB of swap partition
[09:21] <Kartagis> hey
[09:21] <Gnea> Mohammad[B]: okay, sounds good on that end
[09:21] <madurax86> ikonia: well windows runs with out a problem
[09:22] <Mohammad[B]> oh
[09:22] <Gnea> Mohammad[B]: so hibernate has never worked? what's the make/model?
[09:22] <Mohammad[B]> llutz_: thanks
[09:22] <Kartagis> it seems I need C header files that match my kernel. how do I get them?
[09:22] <Mohammad[B]> Gnea: let me check what say llutz_
[09:22] <madurax86> ikonia: memtest makes it very hot
[09:22] <llutz_> Mohammad[B]: if you change that file, run "sudo update-initramfs -u" after it
[09:22] <Mohammad[B]> brb
[09:22] <Gnea> Mohammad[B]: good idea
[09:23] <Gnea> llutz_: just noticed I don't even have that file
[09:23] <ikonia> madurax86: thats not a good sign
[09:23] <ikonia> madurax86: windows is not a good test
[09:23] <Gnea> but then, this system hibernates just fine
[09:23] <llutz_> Gnea: but it seems to be needed for working resume (at least it was here)
[09:23] <Kartagis> it seems I need C header files that match my kernel. how do I get them?
[09:24] <Gnea> llutz_: honestly, I've got an empty directory
[09:24] <madurax86> ikonia: fans do work on the memtest at full speed but im kinda afraid is there any memtest app that i can run inside the OS?
[09:24] <Gnea> llutz_: maybe it's a requirement on 10.10?
[09:24] <ikonia> madurax86: no
[09:24] <ikonia> madurax86: if you are afraid, then there is probably an issue with your hardware
[09:25] <wisevoyager> Hi everybody! :)
[09:25] <llutz_> Gnea: i'm not sure. it was empty here too and resume failed. after creating resume-file it workd
[09:25] <tabasko> hi wisevoyager :)
[09:25] <wisevoyager> tabasko! hi.. :)
[09:26] <Gnea> llutz_: must depend on the system it's running on
[09:26] <MrsB> Kartagis make sure you have installed the -devel package for your kernal and also build-essentials which has all the buildy stuff in it
[09:26] <llutz_> Gnea: it wasn't important enough for me to spend more time to evaluate if that file is the only way to get hibernation working
[09:26] <Gnea> llutz_: right on
[09:26] <madurax86> ikonia: does running memtest on a notebook normally result in high heat?
[09:27] <ikonia> madurax86: yes, as it's working your machine hard
[09:27] <Mario1776> I took a picture of File & Folders but it looks like crap cause I used my webcam so I detailed everything that you can see in the image. http://img23.imageshack.us/img23/411/ubuntunetbookremix.jpg . The main bar for File & Folders has the items listed below: Left and Right Navigation Button; Search Box; All Files, Documents, Folders, Images, Audio, Video, Presentations and Other. Then there is a section called "Favorite Folders
[09:27] <madurax86> ikonia: BIOS would shutdown it if it gets too high right?
[09:27] <Ebrahem> Hello. Can someone look at http://pastebin.com/4tXyULCY and confirm if the setup is alright?
[09:27] <ikonia> madurax86: depends on your device and how it's configured
[09:28] <madurax86> ikonia: ok i'll be back with the results of memtest
[09:28] <ikonia> madurax86: it will probably take about 12 hours at least to do a full test
[09:28] <hariom> I want to install minimal GUI on my Ubuntu 10.04 server. I will be running VPN and PPTP clients to connect with remote server and will need GUI like network manager. Which Desktop to install XDM, GDM etc?
[09:29] <Gnea> Mario1776: you could've just launched gimp and created a screenshot
[09:29] <Kartagis> MrsB, thanks
[09:29] <eXtreme> hariom,  xdm is a very minimum.  gdm is full featured
[09:29] <Mohammad[B]> Gnea: llutz_ thanks, problem resolved
[09:29] <Mohammad[B]> :)
[09:29] <madurax86> ikonia: mm are you sure that this is a hardware failure?
[09:29] <ikonia> madurax86: no
[09:29] <MrsB> Kartagis yw
[09:30] <madurax86> ikonia: has it happened to others you know?
[09:30] <ikonia> madurax86: I have no idea,
[09:30] <madurax86> ikonia: btw the way i can allocate and use all the RAM in this machine, i've tried that
[09:30] <wisevoyager> I'm facing trouble whilst installing packages from betavine, I've often this message. Does anyone know what's the major causes? http://pastebin.com/RNcCVCjn
[09:31] <madurax86> ikonia: ok thanks for your time :)
[09:31] <hariom> eXtreme: I currently have xdm installed. But I feel that there few plugins are not installed properly. I don't see network icon to start pptp client connection. I have install network-manager-pptp but there is no network icon to start it.
[09:32] <hariom> I don't if this is desktop gui issue or something else
[09:32] <hariom> In menu I see Systems -> Preferences -> "Network Connections"
[09:33] <hariom> but on the panel bar there is no icon to connect the connection created in Network connections.
[09:34] <hariom> eXtreme: Does gdm install office packages etc? I don't need any such packages.
[09:35] <inflex> hiya all, tried upgrading to 10.10 from 10.04 but during the process the machine lost power and now I've got a broken apt database... any way I can clean it all up?
[09:35] <inflex> (all the 10.10 packages downloaded it seems)
[09:35] <wisevoyager> tabasko Hi!
[09:36] <MikeChelen> hariom: use apt-get install -s to simulate
[09:37] <iceroot> inflex: sudo apt-get install -f
[09:37] <iceroot> inflex: or  sudo dpkg --configure -a

[09:42] <heslam> does anyone know what i need to change to increase the button sizes?
[09:43] <llutz_> hariom: you have to tell _what_ to install, add the packagename
[09:44] <darkwatch84> hi
[09:46] <hariom> llutz: I did write package name. but as it is already installed, it doesn't make any sense. In what situations one needs to simulate apt-get?
[09:47] <darkwatch84> !list
[09:48] <llutz_> hariom: to check whats going to be installed before you install stuff
[09:48] <hariom> ok
[09:48] <hariom> Got it.
[09:49] <eXtreme> sometimes there's a confiiguration file that cntrols the taskbar icons.  you might need to edit that.  look in /home  somewhere
[09:50] <hariom> llutz: can you tell which package to install to get a network icon which can initiate VPN or pptp connection? I have connection setting added in "Network Connection" in Systems->Preference menu
[09:50] <wisevoyager> Hi everyone! I'm facing trouble whilst installing packages from betavine, I've often got this message. Does anyone know how to fix it? http://pastebin.com/RNcCVCjn
[09:51] <juk> wisevoyager: there's no such package
[09:52] <wisevoyager> juk can you tell me more?
[09:52] <ikonia> wisevoyager: it means that package doesn't exist
[09:52] <wisevoyager> juk: can u tell me more, I'm newbie
[09:52] <ikonia> wisevoyager: the package doesn't exist - what mode do you need
[09:54] <eXtreme> <wisevoyager,  you might need to add the download site to /etc/apt/sources.list
[09:55] <e-anima> puh i installed lightroom in virtual box. taht is so damn slow on opening an image.

[10:12] <lowebb> How come MAC has out of box support for Microsoft Exchange when it seems impossible in Ubuntu?
[10:13] <jpds> lowebb: Did you pay for the Ubuntu?
[10:13] <llutz_> !ot | lowebb license issues, proprietary crap etc
[10:13] <lowebb> jpds: I'm not having a dig. I contribute as much as anyone, so loose the attitude. It's a valid question about why evolution has so poor exchange integration
[10:14] <Foobaz> ping
[10:14] <jpds> lowebb: Ask GNOME.
[10:14] <lowebb> llutz_: Its proprietary for MAC's as well, I dont buy that
[10:14] <lowebb> jpds: If you dont know thats fine, quiet now
[10:15] <ikonia> lowebb: that's not how to talk to people.
[10:15] <llutz_> lowebb: i guess they payed for it,, but thats all off-topic here. /j #ubuntu-offtopic
[10:15] <ikonia> lowebb: this channel is Ubuntu support only
[10:15] <lowebb> My HTC Desire Android phone has full exchange support
[10:16] <dvanstone> good morning if I have updates can I rebuild the kernel at the same time
[10:18] <dvanstone> ikonia, you say I need to pay for support to use this channel?
[10:18] <popey> dvanstone: no, he didnt
[10:19] <ikonia> dvanstone: no
[10:19] <dvanstone> ikonia, sorry my morning eyes are fuzzy
[10:20] <Kartagis> !find version.h
[10:21] <Kartagis> The path "/usr/src/linux/include" is a kernel header file directory, but it does not contain the file "linux/version.h" as expected. <--- how can I fix this?
[10:21] <ikonia> Kartagis: what are you trying to build
[10:21] <Kartagis> ikonia, vmware-server
[10:21] <ikonia> Kartagis: you need the kernel source package
[10:22] <Kartagis> ikonia, what  package exactly?
[10:22] <dvanstone> popey: at an update can I rebuild the kernel or would this require something extra special?
[10:22] <Kartagis> 2.6.35-22
[10:22] <ikonia> Kartagis: the kernel source package for the kernel y ou are running
[10:22] <popey> dvanstone: why do you want to rebuild the kernel?
[10:22] <ikonia> dvanstone: why do you want to rebuild the kernel
[10:22] <popey> *echo
[10:22] <internetdown> Hi, my internet stopped working after a reboot yesterday. The wireless connects to the router but I can't access the internet. Other laptops connecting to the router are fine.
[10:23] <ikonia> internetdown: check you got an IP address from the router
[10:23] <internetdown> ikonia : Yes I have an ip address
[10:23] <blackdoggy> e something went wrong with my themes.. no light theme will work and there is a  question mark in all the installed theme when i go to apprarence settings
[10:23] <Kartagis> linux-source-2.6.35 <--- I'm getting this
[10:23] <ikonia> internetdown: check you have dns servers and the default route is fine
[10:23] <dvanstone> so I can see this choice as a new start choice
[10:24] <ikonia> dvanstone: you don't need to rebuild a kernel
[10:24] <internetdown> ikonia : Yes all of them are fine, same values as they used to be for weeks. n
[10:25] <ikonia> internetdown: what happens if you ping wwww.google.com
[10:25] <phrix> hi... I need some help with samba running on MM.. this is smb.conf http://paste.ubuntu.com/534221/ ... then I run command useradd -s /bin/false -d /dev/null test && smbpasswd -L -a test... any clue??
[10:25] <popey> dvanstone: ?
[10:25] <dvanstone> ikonia: I am aware of that but asking can I to give a new option a boot
[10:25] <internetdown> ikonia : Do I just type that into the terminal?
[10:25] <ikonia> dvanstone: then you should know you don't need to rebuild a kernel for that
[10:25] <ikonia> internetdown: yup
[10:26] <ikonia> phrix: you've not stated a problem
[10:26] <internetdown> ikonia : It says ping: unknown host www.google.com
[10:26] <phrix> ikonia, oh sry...
[10:26] <ikonia> internetdown: nslookup www.google.com
[10:26] <ikonia> internetdown: ok, so dns isn't working
[10:27] <phrix> hi... I need some help with samba running on MM.. this is smb.conf http://paste.ubuntu.com/534221/ ... then I run command useradd -s /bin/false -d /dev/null test && smbpasswd -L -a test... the problem is, it's not acessible when I try with windows... any clue??
[10:27] <ikonia> phrix: what is the name of the windows user you are trying to connect with ?
[10:27] <internetdown> ikonia: qBittorrent seems to be able to connect to peers though the download is awfully slow
[10:28] <ikonia> internetdown: probably because DNS is not working
[10:28] <phrix> ikonia, test
[10:28] <ikonia> internetdown: do the test I gave you please
[10:28] <ikonia> phrix: can you ping the ubuntu box from the windows box first of all ?
[10:28] <dvanstone> popey: i would like to rebuild the kernel so the update and non update would have separate build
[10:28] <ikonia> dvanstone: you don't need to rebuild the kenrel for that
[10:28] <phrix> ikonia, of course... no problem with the network..
[10:29] <ikonia> phrix: ok - can you telnet to the samba ports
[10:29] <kuku_> j
[10:29] <phrix> ikonia, what's it??
[10:29] <internetdown> ikonia : it says ;; connection timed out ; no servers could be reached
[10:29] <ikonia> phrix: look in services
[10:29] <phrix> ikonia, sry, I dont understand.. >,<
[10:29] <ikonia> internetdown: there is your problem, you have no working dns servers
[10:29] <ikonia> phrix: check either the samba docs, or the services file
[10:30] <internetdown> ikonia: My primary dns is my routers ip, other laptops are able to connect to it and access the internet
[10:30] <ikonia> internetdown: is your broken machine set to use that same dns up
[10:30] <ikonia> ip
[10:31] <internetdown> ikoni: Yes
[10:31] <ikonia> internetdown: how are you checking that
[10:31] <Kartagis> ikonia, I've installed linux-source-2.6.35 but I still get that message
[10:31] <stephan_> is there somthing like zvim? (like zless but for editing)
[10:31] <ikonia> Kartagis: what message ?
[10:31] <phrix> ikonia, hmm... sry, at first I've open the samba with windows, the shared folder is appeared... but, it wont be opened and said it's not accessible...
[10:31] <Kartagis> The path "/usr/src/linux/include" is a kernel header file directory, but it does not contain the file "linux/version.h" as expected. <--- how can I fix this?
[10:31] <internetdown> ikonia: I clicked on the Connection Information option in the Network Manager
[10:31] <Kartagis> The path "/usr/src/linux/include" is a kernel header file directory, but it does not contain the file "linux/version.h" as expected.
[10:32] <ikonia> internetdown: look in /etc/resolv.conf
[10:32] <ikonia> internetdown: pastebin the output of that file for me please
[10:32] <ikonia> phrix: so do the test I asked you to
[10:32] <ikonia> Kartagis: look in /usr/src - what's there
[10:32] <phrix> ikonia, the samba docs ya??
[10:32] <ikonia> phrix: get the samba ports, and telnet to them from the windows machine
[10:33] <dvanstone> Kartagis what is uname -r
[10:33] <Kartagis> ikonia, http://pastebin.com/ccQBXjPt
[10:33] <idodeisuke> doesn anyone know why the apply-button of the networkmanager-openvpn-edit-connection-windows is grayed out?
[10:33] <Kartagis> dvanstone, 2.6.35-22-generic
[10:33] <idodeisuke> i cant save any openvpn connection setting :(
[10:33] <idodeisuke> ;(
[10:33] <dvanstone> that is it
[10:33] <ikonia> Kartagis: you need a symlink to linux-source-2.6.35 from linux
[10:33] <internetdown> ikonia: I'm using a different laptop now. I opened the file on the broken machine and it's empty except for one line #Generated by Network Manager
[10:34] <ikonia> internetdown: that's why there is no dns
[10:34] <ikonia> internetdown: that file controls the dns server
[10:34] <internetdown> ikonia: So how do I get it to generate a properly configured file?
[10:34] <Ebrahem`> my system keeps freezing at random times. my question is, is 10.04 64bit more stable than 10.10?
[10:34] <phrix> ikonia, I dont know how to telnet... T_T
[10:34] <ikonia> phrix: telnet $erver $port
[10:34] <Kartagis> oh, okay
[10:34] <ikonia> internetdown: network manager should do it for you
[10:35] <internetdown> ikonia : I tried deleting the old connection profile and creating a new one. Same result.
[10:35] <ikonia> internetdown: put the line "nameserver 1.1.1.1" in that file, replacing 1.1.1.1 with your dns server ip address
[10:36] <dvanstone> phrix: fyi telnet is very insecure
[10:36] <Ebrahem`> Is 10.04 64bit more stable than 10.10?
[10:36] <rah> how much space does a fresh install of ubuntu desktop 10.10 need?
[10:36] <london5634> do you guys know the song from Kid frost- la raza?
[10:36] <ikonia> dvanstone: it's a socket test
[10:36] <internetdown> ikonia : How do I get permissions to edit that file?
[10:36] <ikonia> london5634: that's nothing to do with ubuntu
[10:36] <ikonia> internetdown: use sudo
[10:37] <london5634> hold on i have aquestion
[10:37] <ikonia> london5634: this channels topic is ubuntu support only
[10:37] <internetdown> ikonia : sudo gedit?
[10:37] <ikonia> internetdown: gksudo gedit
[10:37] <london5634> i cannot play that song in ubuntu
[10:37] <london5634> why is that?
[10:37] <ikonia> london5634: probably codec
[10:37] <ikonia> !codecs | london5634
[10:37] <phrix> ikonia, i've telnet on port 139... it shows nothing...
[10:37] <london5634> codecs cool whats that?
[10:37] <ikonia> phrix: does it connect
[10:37] <ikonia> london5634: check the URL ubottu just sent
[10:38] <london5634> ubuntu i love you
[10:38] <ikonia> london5634: stop messing around
[10:38] <dvanstone> Ebraham: 10.4 would be the more stable because simply it has had more time in the field to fix random issues but both are stable
[10:38] <internetdown> ikonia : It just got fixed on its own! I simply opened the file in gksudo gedit and the dns ip was there. My internet is working again!
[10:38] <london5634> ikonia im not messing around,sorry if i offend,with all ur respect
[10:38] <ikonia> internetdown: there we go
[10:38] <rdw200169> london5634: codecs allow your computer to translate compressed (e.g. mp3) files to a format your sound card can recognize ;)
[10:39] <rah> I have 9GB of space in my partition table, is that enough to install ubuntu?
[10:39] <ikonia> internetdown: network manager probably took a minute or two to update
[10:39] <ikonia> rah: yes
[10:39] <phrix> ikonia, no...
[10:39] <rah> ikonia: with how much to spare?
[10:39] <london5634> why r u guys in ubuntu real mean with people?
[10:39] <london5634> i just needed some help and u offend me
[10:39] <ikonia> phrix: there you go so either a.) samba is not running on the server b.) something is blocking it
[10:39] <ikonia> rah: it take 2 gig to install, the more the better
[10:39] <internetdown> ikonia : Thanks a lot for your time. I learnt about the configuration file which controls name resolution. Thank you again. :)
[10:40] <rah> ikonia: ok, thanks
[10:40] <ikonia> internetdown: welcome
[10:40] <london5634> ikonia is a hemaphrodite haha good bye
[10:40] <rdw200169> london5634: not trying to be mean ;) if you go to Applications -> Software center, and search for 'mp3', you should see 'Gstreamer Extra plugins'
[10:40] <yaramazgeyik2> who use a-desk on ubuntu?
[10:40] <Lumee> Hi
[10:40] <theorifice> I've got printer sharing turned on and am printing from an osx machine, but even though I have enabled printing from all users I still get asked for credentials when I print
[10:41] <rdw200169> i wonder if he actually needed help...
[10:41] <theorifice> If I enter in proper user info, I can print
[10:41] <popey> more than you know rdw200169
[10:41] <Ebrahem`> dvanstone, is there any known/wide problem with 64bit? like random freezing and stuff? I googled but got nothing, however, this has become annoying now
[10:41] <ernopp> is there some ubuntu tool that does more advance browser simulaton, beyond ab?
[10:41] <yaramazgeyik2> anyone use a-desk?
[10:41] <theorifice> but I want to allow printing from any guest on the network without authorization
[10:42] <Lumee> I'd like simulate the behaviour of a embeded system in my own pc, with limited memory asigned, limited Hz of CPU, and anything else... Do you know some program for do it?
[10:42] <rdw200169> theorifice: reluctantly, i doubt many people here know much about the mechanisms osx uses for print sharing :(
[10:42] <theorifice> no, the print server is an ubuntu machine ...
[10:42] <phrix> ikonia, I've telnet from localhost... it connected... so, what's wrong?
[10:43] <yaramazgeyik2> ...
[10:44] <theorifice> Lumee: If you're just interested in simulating a barebones sytem, then check out qemu
[10:44] <yaramazgeyik2> anyone use a-desk??
[10:44] <dvanstone> Ebraham: I have assorted distros of 64bit ... what I was saying is normally the newest build has the most issues because it is the most advanced or cutting edge
[10:44] <idodeisuke> why i cant save any openvpn connection setting? the apply button is greyed out ;(
[10:44] <theorifice> Lumee: What embeddd system are you wanting to emulate ?
[10:44] <kiira> hi guys, when i played a video file there is sound but no images
[10:45] <theorifice> kiira: is your monitor on ?
[10:45] <kiira> yes
[10:45] <ikonia> phrix: it means its running but something blocking you
[10:47] <rdw200169> theorifice: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/NetworkPrintingWithUbuntu this may help, there is a note about osx
[10:47] <dvanstone> Ebraham: and with each version build many times you need to go back though the basics to get video and other issues resolved is there a specific issue you have?
[10:47] <usuario> es
[10:47] <usuario> -es
[10:48] <usuario> #ubuntu-es
[10:48] <Ebrahem`> dvanstone, please add a ` to my nickname so the highlighter works :)
[10:48] <Chr|s_> Good Morning. I am having problems with my Flash for viewing videos. I am on a amd64 computer. Installed the latest beta drivers to try to correct my problem. The video shows up fine, but it acts like it is fast forwarding, no audio. Any ideas?
[10:48] <usuario> como pongo el chat español?
[10:49] <dvanstone> Ebraham` sorry it is early
[10:49] <Ebrahem`> dvanstone, my issue is, the system kept having random rebooting at random times. I changed the conf of my system and I am down to 1 TB HDD, let me link you a pastebin I had
[10:50] <Lumee> theorifice: a sigma chipset motherboard with 64 megas ram memory and 1Ghz
[10:50] <phrix> ikonia, any clue how can I know what's blocking it??
[10:51] <ikonia> phrix: a firewall ?
[10:51] <dvanstone> Chr|s_, try building it again wrapped over 32
[10:51] <Lumee> usuario: /join #ubuntu-es
[10:53] <Ebrahem`> dvanstone, http://pastebin.com/4tXyULCY
[10:53] <phrix> ikonia, just ufw, I've stopped it... still doesnt work.. T_T
[10:53] <dvanstone> Ebraham` you are not initiating the reboot
[10:54] <Ebrahem`> dvanstone, what do you mean?
[10:54] <theorifice> rdw200169: Ah I figured it out. I had guest=no in my samba configuration
[10:54] <theorifice> probably a remnant of past printer share configurations
[10:55] <dvanstone> Ebraham`-are you telling it to reboot is there a menu that comes up what is happening
[10:55] <Chr|s_> dvanstone:  this is what I followed http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1358591&highlight=amd64+flash
[10:57] <Ebrahem`> dvanstone, the story is. The system kept rebooting as in lost of power and comes up again. Regardless of the OS (tried windows 7/ubuntu 32bit 10.04.1 and ubuntu maverick). It looked like a hardware problem. I checked for loose connection and stuff but everything seemed fine. memtest is fine. So, I unhooked the old hdd I had and came down to one hdd as it shows in the pastebin
[10:57] <dvanstone> Chr|s_ I know this aint from a buntu site but this is what I use fedoraproject.org/wiki/Flash
[10:58] <Chr|s_> dvanstone:  ok I'll take a look
[10:58] <Ebrahem`> dvanstone, however, now the system stopped the rebooting, but instead, it freezes at random times. I kinda found a pattern but then when I tried to trace back the problem it stopped happening. However, it froze again. I can tell the pattern I suspected if you want
[10:59] <dvanstone> Ebraham` it sounds like your machine is having an issue processor,power supply
[10:59] <dvanstone> maybe the processor is overclocked
[11:01] <Ebrahem`> The test I have been trying to do is, run ubuntu then mount /dev/sda2 then run virtualbox - windows 7 64bit (which reside in /dev/sda2/VMs/HardDisks/file.vdi) and download a 500 files from download.microsoft.com
[11:02] <Ebrahem`> dvanstone, when I leave the system idles for about 9minutes, it freezes. the first try the download stopped at 25% (113MB), second 30%, third because I was typing down stuff, the idling was a bit late so 74%
[11:03] <dvanstone> Ebraham` if the machine has a voltage issue not syncing w/ processor then the issue you describe happens
[11:03] <Ebrahem`> fourth 30%, fifth 74%, and the last one (even though I idled it didn't freeze) and the download completed. however, when I connected to IRC and was looking for an advise, it froze again
[11:04] <Ebrahem`> dvanstone, how do I make sure that is the problem?
[11:04] <dvanstone> Ebraham` are you using the same machine now
[11:04] <Ebrahem`> i am on mac now, I don't want to get random dc from irc.
[11:05] <Ebrahem`> dvanstone, is there a way to trace back the problem? like exhausting the system with I/O stuff or anything
[11:05] <dvanstone> Ebraham` like I said I have seen this random restart issue when I have volage issues w/ the processor
[11:06] <Ebrahem`> dvanstone, execuse my ignorance, does that mean a problem with the psu or cpu?
[11:06] <dvanstone> only way I know is to see what voltage the processor recomends and adjust in bios
[11:07] <dvanstone> what is the processor amd or intel
[11:07] <Ebrahem`> intel core quad q6700
[11:07] <yaramazgeyik2> intel zenon ^^
[11:08] <dvanstone> if you have an older power supply it may be over volage at 3.? that is supposed tyo be 2.3
[11:08] <dvanstone> sometimes you can underclock it in the bios
[11:09] <dvanstone> sometimes depends on the board
[11:11] <florian_> good morning
[11:11] <Chr|s_> hmm removed everything flash, reinstalled it back still having same issue
[11:11] <florian_> i know that it's maybe much better to talk to the empathy team but i can't find 'em here
[11:11] <florian_> I got several "network error" messages from empathy during connecting to icq
[11:12] <florian_> i use ubuntu 10.10 and i should have the finest upgrade
[11:12] <timo> florian_: so do I with 10.04. I think there's already a bug report about it
[11:12] <gbls> hi there - looking for some help installing an nvidia driver
[11:12] <dvanstone> Chr|s_ are you still using the 64 beta version or the 64 demo I found that the wrapped method works fine
[11:13] <florian_> do you guess that icq changed their protocol?
[11:13] <florian_> meebo works
[11:13] <Ebrahem`> dvanstone, I am at the bios. cpu vcore 1.29V - 3.3V is 3.248V - 5V is 4.961V - 12V is 12.232 V - ICORE is 20.333A - I12V is 2.532A
[11:13] <timo> florian_: I suppose so. I didn't research it further, since I haven't actually used ICQ for years
[11:13] <Ebrahem`> dvanstone, does that make any sense?
[11:13] <Chr|s_> dvanstone:  I went to the site you linked but all I can see is using Yum to do it. I want to try to get the 64bit to work. So i'll hang in there for now
[11:15] <stephan_> how to work arroun "unknown suffix -- ignored" with gzip
[11:15] <gbls> hey = can someone help with an NVidia Driver Problem please
[11:15] <stephan_> the file hat the wront ending, it want to force to process as *.gz file
[11:16] <ghostlines> x11-forwarding works when I connect to my server, but when I connect to another sever I get a: Error: no display specified error. Any suggestions why this may be happening?
[11:16] <dvanstone> Chr|s_ yum is just a different aptitude manager replace w/ apt-get
[11:17] <florian_> Do you think that it's easy to force my friends to change from icq to jabber? :)
[11:18] <gbls> florian : short of pointing a gun at their heads?
[11:19] <FishFace> florian_: Try Pidgin. ICQ works with that
[11:19] <gbls> yeah pidgin is good
[11:19] <dvanstone> Ebraham` maybe the auto voltage is gone buy a simple power supply tester like http://www.google.com/search?aq=f&sourceid=chrome&ie=UTF-8&q=power+supply+tester it is the only method I know to really test a build
[11:20] <MaDstein_> uhaaaa
[11:20] <florian_> I saw a fix. No pidgin doesn't work for me.
[11:20] <minx> Agree, it`s too hard to force friends from icq
[11:21] <MaDstein_> i use kmess
[11:21] <MaDstein_> kinda good stable pp
[11:21] <florian_> Disabling SSL during connect helps for me
[11:21] <MaDstein_> best im client
[11:23] <dvanstone> does anyone know much on systemtap
[11:23] <concon> Do I need to restart networking after making changes to iptables?
[11:23] <florian_> concon,  i don't think so
[11:23] <ranjan> concon, iptables  is dynamic. no need to restart the network
[11:23] <yaramazgeyik2> ANYONE USE A-DESK???
[11:24] <concon> ranjan: It's always been dynamic?
[11:24] <ranjan> concon, yes
[11:24] <ranjan> concon, you may check it by a simple test
[11:25] <concon> ranjan: How?
[11:25] <ranjan> try pinging to a machine with iptables and just use iptables to block icmp traffic and you can see that ping replys wont come.
[11:25] <concon> I just added a subnet to ACCEPT and it can't ping the machine
[11:25] <ranjan> while pinging make iptables to drop ping
[11:25] <dvanstone> Ebraham` - have you looked at intels site for common issues w/ the Q6700
[11:26] <ranjan> concon, what? subnetting means there should be proper forwarding/routing done. or else you wont be able to ping one subnet from other
[11:26] <concon> ranjan: The settings are identical to the other 10 subnets we have, but I can't get it to work. I've tried service iptables status and it says $iptables: unrecognized service
[11:28] <ranjan> concon, i hope you are using ubuntu isnt it?
[11:28] <concon> jaunty
[11:28] <concon> If not I'd go to #my_distro
[11:28] <ranjan> i dont think ubuntu has iptables by default. i think it uses ufw.
[11:29] <concon> ufw is not running
[11:29] <concon> iptables, however, is installed
[11:29] <concon> And configured
[11:30] <ranjan> concon, try ps aux | grep -i iptables
[11:30] <Chr|s_> grrr. Doing everying I am being told to do for flash and still nothing
[11:30] <concon> Ofc, iptables isn't running -_-
[11:31] <concon> Gah, it's configured in /etc/network/interfaces
[11:31] <dvanstone> Chr|s_ uname -r
[11:31] <lesshaste> does anyone else have problems with X hanging after a recent update? It just hangs for a few minutes especially when I am running kile. I can go to a VT and strace kile where I see "kile: cannot connect to X server"
[11:32] <Chr|s_> dvanstone:  2.6.35-22-generic
[11:33] <concon> ranjan: Do I need to restart networking after making changes to /etc/network/interfaces or is it enough to run ifdown/ifup ?
[11:33] <dvanstone> it should work give me a sec I need a refresh new kernel
[11:33] <Chr|s_> alright
[11:33] <concon> When I think about it, I probably shouldn't run ifdown on a box I'm connected to through ssh
[11:33] <basilic> hello all, I would like to know if the samsung universel driver for linux work correctly?
[11:34] <ranjan> concon, what changes have you made to /etc/network/interfaces
[11:36] <concon> I've added this " up route add -net 10.10.10.23 netmask 255.255.255.0 gw INTGW " and " down route del -net 10.10.10.23 netmask 255.255.255.0 gw INTGW "
[11:36] <Chr|s_> This is so weird, never seen flash do this lol
[11:37] <Chr|s_> seems like the video when play is pressed it is fast forwarding without any sound
[11:37] <Chr|s_> plays a 2 minute video in 15-20 seconds
[11:38] <ranjan> concon, i think routes are also added dynamically. but just try restarting.
[11:39] <concon> ranjan: Excuse me for not thinking, I can just add this route manually this time

[11:43] <Chr|s_> Firefox 3.6
[11:43] <sw0rdfish> awesome
[11:44] <eXtreme> firefox 3.6.12 was crashing flash player for me.
[11:44] <ActionParsnip> eXtreme: check you only have flashplugin-nonfree when you run:  dpkg -l | grep flash; dpkg -l | grep gnash; dpkg -l | grep swf
[11:44] <dvanstone> Chr|s_ are you using ccsm
[11:44] <jatt> use chrome
[11:45] <ActionParsnip> jatt: +1 :D
[11:45] <jatt> sw0rdfish: it should do it automatically
[11:45] <Chr|s_> dvanstone:  no I don't have any desktop effects enabled, didn't install or set up ccsm
[11:45] <dvanstone> ok
[11:45] <grobda24> Looked at this till I'm blue in the face - xorg.conf: http://paste.ubuntu.com/534243/ - I always have to use nvidia-settings to switch from 640x480 to 1440x900. How can I fix it at 1440x900 ?
[11:46] <ActionParsnip> grobda24: if you only want to use that res, don't have the other lines
[11:46] <Chr|s_> brb real fast
[11:47] <grobda24> ActionParsnip, remove unneeded modelines AND metamodes ?
[11:47] <ActionParsnip> sw0rdfish: it mounts the partition, you don't mount disks
[11:47] <sw0rdfish> i see
[11:47] <ActionParsnip> grobda24: sure, keep it simple (you could just comment it out to keep the text instead)
[11:47] <woodmaven> Hi, I have just burned the ubutu Iso image and I can't get my Mac to boot from the CD, can anyone help?
[11:48] <grobda24> ActionParsnip, cool, thanks ... I'll try this now
[11:48] <ActionParsnip> woodmaven: hold C at boot, isn't that the mac way?
[11:48] <ActionParsnip> woodmaven: did you MD5 test the ISO? Did you burn it slowly?
[11:48] <woodmaven> I tried that and it doesn't work
[11:49] <woodmaven> what do you mean MD5 test?
[11:50] <ActionParsnip> !md5 | woodmaven
[11:50] <woodmaven> I'll try, thanks
[11:51] <Cygn> Hello, can anyone tell me if i can delete the last entry of my MBR, which is completly messed up and causes that i can not start ubuntu anymore: http://www.3tagetape.de/GRUB.pdf (My Partitions, MBR and the Error's shown bei rEFIt) without an Effect on my other partitions
[11:52] <Jordan_U> Cygn: I would switch from a hybrid mbr to pure GPT. Hybrid mbrs are only required with Windows, and cause a lot of problems.
[11:53] <Jordan_U> Cygn: You can use GPT fdisk (gdisk) to do that.
[11:53] <Cygn> Jordan_U: i Use Windows as well as ubuntu and mac os
[11:54] <Jordan_U> Cygn: :(
[11:54] <UserX7> how do i split windows in byobu?
[11:54] <ActionParsnip> Cygn: pretty expensive rig dude
[11:54] <Cygn> rig?
[11:54] <ActionParsnip> Cygn: system
[11:54] <Cygn> Sorry my english is not that well.
[11:54] <Cygn> it is :)
[11:55] <pinoyoragon> my wicd cannot connect to wired networks but wireless only
[11:55] <kalos> Ciao @LL
[11:55] <Jordan_U> Cygn: Yes, that last partition is completely invalid. Do you know how it was created?
[11:55] <Cygn> Jordan_U: Not exactly, but i think from rEFIt.
[11:56] <cs09aas> Hi, I have a dual booting machine and I can no longer see windows in the bootloader. How can I get it back?
[11:56] <Cygn> I'm sorry, i have to leave, did not expect that my friend comes along that soon, will be here in a hour again and ask a few more questions before deleting it. Thank you VERY much by now.
[11:57] <dvanstone> ActionParsnip: good morning
[11:57] <Jordan_U> Cygn: If rEFIt created it then that's a bug. With "pure" GPT the msdos partition table will have a single EFI protective partition spanning the entire drive and nothing else. Your MBR has 3 partitions *and* a 4th protective partition which spans the whole drive, which means it overlaps all of the other 3 partitions.
[11:58] <cs09aas> Was that an answer for me?
[11:58] <Cygn> Jordan_U: But the first EFI seems to be correct, doesn't it?
[11:58] <pinoyoragon> need help please, I can't connect to wired-networks using wicd but it works in wireless. i'm using ubuntu 10.10.
[11:58] <ActionParsnip> hi dvanstone
[11:58] <Jordan_U> Cygn: Yes, the first partition is correct for a hybrid mbr.
[11:59] <ActionParsnip> pinoyoragon: if you run: sudo lshw -C network    you'll see the wired chip, you can websearch for guides using the product line
[11:59] <Jordan_U> cs09aas: What is the output of "sudo os-prober"?
[11:59] <obengdako> cs09aas, run update-grub
[11:59] <ActionParsnip> cs09aas: sudo apt-get install os-prober; sudo os-prober; sudo update-grub
[12:00] <ActionParsnip> cs09aas: should do it
[12:00] <woodmaven> Ok I performed an md5 check, the hashes match exactly, now what?
[12:00] <cs09aas> ActionParsnip : many thanks I will try this and let you know of the outcome
[12:00] <Jordan_U> ActionParsnip: You don't actually need to run os-prober separately. update-grub uses os-prober itself.
[12:00] <obengdako> cs09aas, got my message?
[12:01] <hariom> How to get sound in my fresh ubuntu 10.04 machine? I have installed minimal (jeos). I can see speak icon on the panel but no sound when I run a audio
[12:01] <obengdako> and of course as root
[12:01] <ActionParsnip> woodmaven: you should check the ISO before burning so you know its a good image. Please do this in future as it speeds up support and you don't waste CDs
[12:01] <cs09aas> obengdako: yep got that just doing it now
[12:01] <cs09aas> ActionParsnip: This is the output from sudo os-prober.. http://www.wired.com/epicenter/2010/11/the-path-to-social-network-tranquility-is-lined-by-50-friends/
[12:01] <juk> hariom: what are using to play audio
[12:01] <ActionParsnip> Jordan_U: ahh, i though os-prober just populated the os_prober file, then update-grub to add the new config
[12:01] <cs09aas> sorry
[12:01] <woodmaven> the iso was fine, thereforeI assume the disk is fine
[12:01] <cs09aas> chris@chris-HP-Touch:~$ sudo os-prober
[12:01] <cs09aas> /dev/sda1:Windows 7 (loader):Windows:chain
[12:01] <cs09aas> chris@chris-HP-Touch:~$
[12:01] <ActionParsnip> cs09aas: it's really not

[12:02] <Chr|s> dvanstone:  weird
[12:02] <cs09aas> ActionParsinp: sorry, cntrl C didn't work!
[12:02] <AivarasKivilius> Sorry Bot :D
[12:02] <hariom> any music from the internet or skype etc
[12:02] <Chr|s> dvanstone: I found out the problem
[12:02] <ActionParsnip> cs09aas: please use a pastebin for multiple lines of output
[12:02] <hariom> juk:any music from the internet or skype etc
[12:02] <dvanstone> what?
[12:02] <Chr|s> dvanstone: had wroung audio device selected
[12:02] <Chr|s> now video is playing normal
[12:02] <ActionParsnip> cs09aas: ok then run: sudo update-grub    reboot to test
[12:02] <juk> hariom: ah skype
[12:03] <cs09aas> Sure. rebooting now
[12:03] <ActionParsnip> Jordan_U: see cs09aas's output, the grub isn't updated and needs manually running ;)
[12:03] <dvanstone> i have that issue when i record not play/
[12:03] <dvanstone> flash
[12:05] <hariom> juk: what libraries I need to install?
[12:05] <doolph> there's any web server management interface?
[12:05] <cs09aas> ActionParsnip: many thanks for your advice, that worked perfectly. just ouf of interest do you know why this happens? its happened in the past and I just reinstalled the operating systems!
[12:06] <Chr|s> dvanstone:  yeah weird
[12:06] <ActionParsnip> cs09aas: no idea, i just know the fix. i dont use windows or dual boot personally
[12:06] <cs09aas> ActionParsnip: what was the os-prober you suggested I downloaded?
[12:06] <obengdako> cs09aas, true i dual boot but it may have happened because of your past activities but the fix is available
[12:07] <juk> hariom: sorry i don't know check in skype if not mutted
[12:07] <ActionParsnip> cs09aas: it scans the disks for OSes and puts them in /etc/grub.d/30_os-prober    afaik
[12:07] <cs09aas> obengdako: ok, it was random, I just rebooted from lubuntu and it dissapeared! Many thanks for help with the fix. this is my first time using this and I will definatly be back
[12:08] <hariom> juk: Infact no sound on youtube videos
[12:08] <cs09aas> ActionParsnip: ah ok, then update grub puts the os's back into the grub folder then?
[12:08] <Jordan_U> cs09aas: os-prober is a script which searches for operating systems and outputs information about them which can be used by other programs. update-grub uses os-prober to add windows to your grub.cfg, so without os-prober installed update-grub won't find windows.
[12:08] <vega-> does dapper desktop-version (already eol) still get updates for those packages that are in dapper-lts-server (supported until 2011-06) ?
[12:08] <ActionParsnip> cs09aas: update-grub reads all the grub confi files and eerates grub.cfg
[12:08] <ActionParsnip> *generates
[12:09] <obengdako> cs09aas, great to hear and the update-grub does rewrite the grub loader to have the updated os list
[12:09] <Jordan_U> ActionParsnip: No, /etc/grub.d/30_os-prober is a shell script which calls os-prober.
[12:09] <cs09aas> Excellent, thanks everyone for your help :)
[12:09] <juk> hariom: what ubuntu version?
[12:09] <hariom> juk: 10.04 lucid
[12:10] <cs09aas> Second question - how can I install flash into chromium? I am using lubuntu so its a very minimal OS and it doesn't come with flash player, making sites such as the BBC website useless!
[12:10] <tmade> Hello everybody. I´m running ubuntu server 10.10 and installed gnome. How can i disable running x? I´ve "update-rc.d -f gdm remove" and i get  "Removing any system startup links for /etc/init.d/gdm ..." but x is still starting!?
[12:10] <ActionParsnip> Jordan_U: i see, i'm just making guesses here, can you fill in cs09aas please
[12:10] <Jordan_U> ActionParsnip: Already did :)
[12:10] <ActionParsnip> cs09aas: sudo apt-get install flashplugin-nonfree    and you'll haveit
[12:10] <Xeross> I am attempting to install Ubuntu 10.10 however when hitting Forward on the Preparing to Install ubuntu page it just sits there with a loading graphics
[12:10] <ActionParsnip> cs09aas: i use lubuntu too, its all I use these days
[12:11] <juk> hariom: can you run ubuntu-bug
[12:11] <ActionParsnip> Xeross: did you MD5 test the ISO you downloaded?
[12:11] <cs09aas> ActionParsnip: thanks running that now, there is so much I need to learn about lubuntu, I put it on a SSD and it boots in 15 seconds!
[12:11] <ActionParsnip> cs09aas: xpud boots in 3
[12:12] <cs09aas> ActionParsnip: I am just having to google that to see what it is all about, first time I have heard of it!
[12:12] <obengdako> now lubuntu what does this mean exactly don't get me confused
[12:13] <cs09aas> obengdako: i believe its just a light version of Ubuntu
[12:13] <Xeross> ActionParsnip: Just did, matches
[12:13] <ActionParsnip> obengdako: its ubuntu which uses lxde and openbox instead of gnome and compiz/metacity
[12:13] <LjL> !lubuntu
[12:13] <obengdako> cs09aas, a ha i though i knew that
[12:13] <obengdako> ActionParsnip, i see
[12:13] <ActionParsnip> Xeross: good, you should ideally do that BEFORE burning so you know the image is good and you wont waste disks
[12:14] <ActionParsnip> obengdako: it is a lot lighter and smaller and more energy efficient
[12:14] <Xeross> ActionParsnip: I always use USB sticks instead of CD's
[12:14] <ActionParsnip> Xeross: ok, did you test the USB consistency once the USB starts to boot? Have you tested your RAM?
[12:14] <cs09aas> ActionParsnip: is xPud worth installing? have you had experience in using it?
[12:15] <Xeross> ActionParsnip: How would I check this consistency
[12:15] <Xeross> ActionParsnip: And my RAM is fine, thanks for asking
[12:15] <jussi> tmade: you might have better success asking in #ubuntu-server
[12:15] <tmade> jussi: thanks!
[12:15] <jussi> yw
[12:15] <ActionParsnip> cs09aas: it has about 6 apps, torrent client, browser, text editor and a few others, its very minimal and you will have to doa lot of manual config
[12:15] <dvanstone> ActionParsnip: can it be a desktop choice or would that cause an issue
[12:16] <ActionParsnip> Xeross: have you tested it?
[12:16]  * hashashin nas
[12:16] <Xeross> ActionParsnip: Weird part is when I mount a disk the installer immediatly pops up asking if I want to unmount it before install, but other than that it doesn't do anything
[12:16] <skataria> how to install google-chrome
[12:16] <ActionParsnip> dvanstone: sure, its small and punchy but has few drivers, there is a driver pack on the xpud site you can incorporate
[12:16] <ActionParsnip> !info google-chrome
[12:16] <ActionParsnip> hmm
[12:16] <cs09aas> ActionParsnip: I think i will give it a go, sounds like a perfect 'instant boot' OS
[12:17] <cs09aas> I'm off guys, thanks again for your help.
[12:17] <dvanstone> just google google chrome
[12:17] <dvanstone> it has a package installer
[12:17] <LjL> !info chromium-browser | skataria
[12:17] <ActionParsnip> LjL: you beat me
[12:17] <LjL> dvanstone: bad idea to "just google" stuff instead of getting it from the repositories...
[12:18] <ActionParsnip> skataria: theres a daily ppa you can use too if you want bleeding edge
[12:18] <dvanstone> that is how I built from the download
[12:18] <nskcnkc> k
[12:18] <Xeross> ActionParsnip: So because this installer fails to load my RAM is broken, I highly doubt it
[12:19] <skataria> ActionParsnip: i am very newbies in ubuntu i was using fedora so i am not understanding what you say
[12:19] <skataria> :(
[12:19] <nskcnkc> but are those iso stable enough to be used on a physical machine
[12:19] <LjL> skataria: just install the package "chromium-browser" using any method. it's in the repositories. if you don't know how to do it, i suggest you read up on it because it's very important
[12:19] <juk> skataria: you new to google too?
[12:19] <LjL> !software > skataria    (skataria, see the private message from ubottu)
[12:19] <LjL> juk: please
[12:20] <skataria> thanks LjL
[12:20] <LjL> skataria: if you're in a hurry, just open a terminal and type "sudo apt-get install chromium-browser", that'll get it installed
[12:20] <juk> lol hax has funny host
[12:22] <Xeross> ActionParsnip: So installer asks if I want to unmount, normally you'd press yes but pressing no makes it actually continue
[12:23] <dvanstone> ActionParsnip: so is http://www.google.com/chrome not a stable build for ubuntu?
[12:23] <Xeross> ActionParsnip: Or so it seemed, but something makes it continue
[12:24] <j0rd_> i dont know if this is the right place but im running ubuntu and i need to build a txt list of directory paths for all files in a directory and all sub-directories (as in recursivly)
[12:24] <juk> j0rd_: du /
[12:24] <j0rd_> thanks juk, will try that
[12:25] <ActionParsnip> dvanstone: sure but it's already in the ubuntu repos
[12:25] <ActionParsnip> Xeross: if tats what the installer wants i'd play along
[12:25] <Xeross> It looks like the installer is just really slow
[12:26] <dvanstone> ActionParsnip: I ask because that is where I point people to
[12:27] <j0rd_> juk, is it possible to exclude specific directories.?
[12:27] <juk> j0rd_: grep
[12:27] <j0rd_> jux :D
[12:27] <ActionParsnip> Jordan_U: find /path/to/folder > ~/Desktop/result.txt
[12:27] <juk> j0rd_: du dir/ | grep -v speces
[12:27] <ActionParsnip> j0rd ^ see above
[12:28] <LjL> dvanstone, the thing is, the policy in this channel is to prefer things that are in the repositories over third-party builds. especially so over builds that aren't in the form of .deb files, but even when they are - as is the case with Chrome - getting them from the repos gives stronger guarantees that they will keep working on system updates, and won't interfer with other packages
[12:28] <ActionParsnip> Jordan_U: wrong target, sorry
[12:28] <j0rd_> thanks guys, writing that up now
[12:28] <ActionParsnip> j0rd_: it will show all files and folders in and below the folder you specify
[12:29] <dvanstone> ActionParsnip: that makes sense
[12:30] <j0rd_> sweet giving it a go now, basically i just need a list of file paths for all media files in a directory "My-Music" but its a mess so i need to exclude a few things, like iTunes artwork cache and such
[12:30] <dvanstone> ActionParsnip: I guess I have had to build one too many from source
[12:30] <ActionParsnip> dvanstone: use it if you wis, its all good :)

[12:31] <pog> How can I avoid, that the internal wlan-device is not attached, so that the led ist not "active"
[12:32] <argued> Hi there - I ve had NVIDIA-linux-x86-260.19.12 drivers installed on this system for a good while, working so-so but after recent xorg update things got broken so I ve unistalled those and now it only gives me option to run in low graphics mode - How can I re-enable to install proprietary drivers once again? the search for available drivers gives me no options.
[12:32] <pog> when I rmmod all modules, the device wlan0 is away, but the led still is active.

[12:34] <mgj> naming your scripts .sh and so on might make organizing files easier

[12:38] <DamienCassou> sometimes my network connection acts very strangely: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/152013/reports/network-sawtooth.png. I'm sure it's from me (my computer, or ISP) because it happens with different servers. Does any of you have an idea?
[12:38] <aobasher> did any one try this http://www.webupd8.org/2010/11/alternative-to-200-lines-kernel-patch.html ???

[12:39] <ActionParsnip> DamienCassou: verstrange, i'd run ntop and see what's what
[12:39] <argued> ranjan: for what purpose and how?
[12:39] <erUSUL> aobasher: that patch wont help unless you heavily use the terminal
[12:39] <mgj> DamienCassou, faulty drivers perhaps? The graph could be interpreted as the NIC resetting over and over again
[12:39] <ranjan> argued, you want driver for your nvidia card right??
[12:39] <argued> yes
[12:40] <pksadiq> !nvidia | argued
[12:40] <DamienCassou> ActionParsnip: I'm installing ntop right now. Do I need to pass any option? What should I have a look at?
[12:40] <ranjan> then either install the proprietary one or go for opensource one. i would suggest the opensource one even if it is in the experimental stage
[12:40] <DamienCassou> mgj: I'm using a wifi proprietary driver
[12:40] <ranjan> argued, then either install the proprietary one or go for opensource one. i would suggest the opensource one even if it is in the experimental stage
[12:41] <mgj> pksadiq, should he not be using the ones provided by ubuntu's "Additional drivers" ? Binary drivers causes problems for some people
[12:41] <ranjan> argued, the opensource driver is also providing 3d stuffs. i am using it
[12:41] <aobasher> erUSUL : I am a professional user . I wonder if any one tested?? Are there any good results!!
[12:41] <pksadiq> mgj: not some, but *many*
[12:41] <erUSUL> aobasher: phoronix forums
[12:41] <erUSUL> aobasher: phoronix forums ?
[12:42] <mgj> DamienCassou, i'm not a network engineer, but do your NIC behave in the same way in other OS's ?
[12:42] <ActionParsnip> DamienCassou: its like top, but for network traffic, just run it and watch. you may also want to run: dmesg | tail    to see any kernel messages recently
[12:42] <argued> @ pksadiq - thx I ll give it a try
[12:42] <argued> @ ranjan - ok, I ll try that as well - the I am looking for is how to once again re-enable the prorietary one
[12:42] <mgj> DamienCassou, actually just listen to ActionParsnip instead
[12:43] <aobasher> erUSUL: no
[12:44] <simulo> j #cisco
[12:44] <DamienCassou> mgj: I never tried with another OS (I have mac os on my computer but I rarely use it). Is there a tool on mac os x to see if the problem persists there?
[12:45] <mgj> DamienCassou, probably, i dont know osx too well. A naive test would be to start downloading a large file from a reliable source (local network perhaps) and watch if the speed oscillate like the graph you showed
[12:46] <Chr|s> Ok, I have a question. I like Thunderbird and u ninstalled the default mail client on ubuntu, how do I have it show up able to click in notification menu?
[12:46] <mgj> DamienCassou, considering you are using a 3rd party driver i dont think its too far-fetched to assume it may be the cause of your problems
[12:46] <mgj> DamienCassou, but again, it could be a number of things. Hard to say for certain
[12:47] <karthick87> How to install stackapplet in ubuntu 10.04??
[12:47] <mgj> karthick87, synaptics package manager.... ?
[12:48] <mgj> or good ol' apt-get
[12:48] <karthick87> mgj: Tired but it is not there.
[12:48] <mgj> karthick87, huh? I just checked, i have it available
[12:48] <DamienCassou> mgj: don't see anything with dmesg
[12:48] <albin> I connect to the internet using wireless adhoc. It works well. When I connect the wired adapyter ubuntu try to access internet through the wired only, and stops using the wireless. Solutions?
[12:49] <pksadiq> !find stackapplet
[12:49] <mgj> karthick87, are you using a local mirror for your country, or the official repo? I have had bad experiences with packages missing in local mirrors
[12:50] <mgj> DamienCassou, hmm, strange. dmesg *should* show your something if the driver was causing problems. Hmm....
[12:50] <karthick87> mgj: How to verify tat?
[12:51] <DamienCassou> mgj: the problem with dmesg is that there is no timestamp. However, looking at the lines, I don't see anything
[12:51] <mgj> albin, im not sure if there is an easier solution, but i guess you could setup a iptables rule to force the use of wifi for internet
[12:51] <DavidJonas> Hi ppl!!
[12:51] <dvanstone> Chr|s_ are you talking about the notification area
[12:51] <mgj> karthick87, synaptics -> settings -> repositories
[12:52] <pksadiq> does anybody know how to follow a username in a channel in irssi?, that is, I want to make the statements to be bold for the questions asked by a perticular person, olso the answers said to him
[12:52] <albin> mgj I guess
[12:52] <mgj> albin, that is a sucky solution tho, but i dunno anything better =/
[12:52] <j0rd_> Hi guys, im using this command: du --exclude=Cache ~/Documents/backup/My-Music > ~/Documents/list-test.txt  which gives me a directory listing and full paths for said directories but i need the contents of the directories themselves, can anyone point me in the right direction, i got this far thanks o <jux> and <ActionParsnip> but im stuck at the last hurdle.
[12:52] <karthick87> mgj: see this http://imgur.com/aTWpq
[12:52] <DamienCassou> mgj: I can reproduce the problem with another computer on the LAN
[12:52] <erUSUL> albin: make sure the wired connection does not mess up the routing in your box. right click on the network applet. choose edit connections go to wired; edit->ipv4 tab. choose dhcp only address. then do not set up default gateaway.
[12:53] <DavidJonas> I have a pipe question, How can I, for example run "cat" on all the results for a "find" statement, I tried: find -name *.txt | cat
[12:53] <mgj> DamienCassou, you might be able to use "watch dmesg | tail" to monitor dmesg messages
[12:53] <DavidJonas> obviously didn't work :)
[12:53] <DamienCassou> DavidJonas: find ... -exec cat '{}' \;
[12:53] <albin> erUSUL, I have to use static IP, but there is no gateway set up in any way
[12:53] <erUSUL> DavidJonas: use find's -exec
[12:53] <mgj> DamienCassou, oops, watch "dmesg|tail"
[12:53] <DavidJonas> Thanks!!!
[12:54] <erUSUL> albin: what is the output of « ip route » with both connections active?
[12:54] <llutz> DavidJonas: or: find -name *.txt | xargs cat
[12:54] <mgj> karthick87, ahh, so you are using the local mirror for india. Try selecting "Main server" instead, update, and see if you can find the package you are looking for
[12:54] <DamienCassou> mgj: no new lines are added.
[12:55] <erUSUL> llutz: -print0 | xargs -0 or it will fail on filenames with spaces ;)
[12:55] <llutz> true
[12:55] <mgj> DamienCassou, you said you could reproduce the problem, but did you do it in linux? You need to do it from another OS (or using a different driver) to verify if its the driver which is causing your problems
[12:56] <albin> test
[12:56] <napster> I changed my icon theme, but some of the icons are unchanged! How can I fix it? Missing icons are for "Computer", "Trash" etc. The icons for these are present in /usr/share/icon.
[12:56] <DamienCassou> mgj: not yet, I have to finish my download before :-). I will try to use an RJ45 cable on linux first and then reboot to mac os x
[12:56] <DamienCassou> mgj: however, last time I had this problem, I rebooted my computer and things were back to normal in linux
[12:57] <DavidJonas> thanks a lot llutz erUSUL and DamienCassou all of you were right :)
[12:57] <DavidJonas> this channel rocks
[12:57] <mgj> DamienCassou, strange. Rebooting really shouldn't be a solution. My guess is still a sucky driver, but perhaps someone else has a better explaination
[12:58] <DamienCassou> mgj: I will also try to disable wifi and enable it again in the network-manage-applet
[12:59] <karthick87> mgj: Still it is not there.
[13:00] <mgj> DamienCassou, couldnt hurt. But again, thats a sucky solution..... it really shouldnt be necessary
[13:00] <mgj> karthick87, did you remember to update after selecting "Main server" ?
[13:00] <pksadiq> karthick87: in terminal try sudo apt-get stackapplet
[13:00] <pksadiq> karthick87: sudo apt-get install stackapplet
[13:01] <DamienCassou> mgj: I agree but I'm not a network expert either. If I reboot on os x and things work correctly, it is possible that it will get worse if I use it for a few hours. I won't be patient enough however :-)
[13:01] <karthick87> mgj: I ran this  "sudo apt-get update" after i changed it to Main server
[13:02] <mgj> karthick87, what error do you get when you try running the command pksadiq gave you?
[13:02] <mgj> package not found?
[13:02] <sobersabre> hi. is there a special # for netbooks ubuntu ?
[13:02] <pksadiq> !find stackapplet
[13:02] <erUSUL> !une
[13:02] <mgj> DamienCassou, anything is possible :). But if everything works perfectly in osx, i'd say its probably the driver you are using in linux
[13:02] <karthick87> mgj: E: Couldn't find package stackapplet
[13:02] <pksadiq> karthick87: are you using lucid?
[13:03] <karthick87> pksadiq: yes i am using lucid
[13:03] <pksadiq> !find stackapplet lucid
[13:03] <sobersabre> ok. I have tried to install "unr" on Lenovo S30-3
[13:03] <sobersabre> via a USB drive.
[13:03] <pksadiq> !find stackapplet lucid | karthick87
[13:03] <albin> erUSUL, http://pastebin.com/yUr4w7M6
[13:03] <napster> !icon
[13:03] <sobersabre> It ddidn't work, the installation stalled, the usb drive would disconnect, and the installation would keep blinking with '_' forever.
[13:03] <mgj> DamienCassou, i had a similar problem with a broadcom wifi chip once.... but luckily for me, an update to the driver a few years later solved everything :P
[13:04] <sobersabre> So, what could I have done differently, in order to be able to reach to at least live session ?
[13:04] <awanti_> I am unable to open microsoft access data base in Ubuntu 10.10 pc. I have installed every thing related to Database from Ubuntu Software Center.
[13:04] <mgj> pksadiq, good thinking! I've never used stackapplet, assumed it had been in the repos for a long time
[13:04] <erUSUL> albin: the broken one looks ok o.0! only a default route.... dunno why it fails.
[13:04] <Xeross> Is there a way to have wireless enabled by default I have to enable it in the nm-applet -> Enable Wireless
[13:04] <Xeross> every time I boot
[13:05] <ActionParsnip> j0rd_: the find command on its own finds everything, i suggest you use that
[13:05] <DamienCassou> mgj: I also have a broadcom one
[13:05] <mgj> DamienCassou, ugh.... as you might imagine, i dont like broadcom devices much after that experience
[13:06] <mgj> DamienCassou, if you havent already, you might want to research if a opensource driver exists for yours
[13:07] <erUSUL> albin: it is maybe a dns issue? have you tried with numeric ip's on the broken situation?
[13:07] <andre_pl> my VPN connection stopped working recently after an udpdate and I can't figure out what's wrong with it :( anyone got any troubleshooting ideas? it just refuses to connect.
[13:07] <pksadiq> karthick87: any way you may try the maverick version at http://packages.ubuntu.com/maverick/stackapplet
[13:07] <awanti_>  I am unable to open microsoft access data base in Ubuntu 10.10 pc. I have installed every thing related to Database from Ubuntu Software Center
[13:07] <DamienCassou> mgj: I'll soon have to choose a new laptop. Do you have an idea on how to choose it to maximize linux compatibility?
[13:08] <mgj> DamienCassou, usually IBM Thinkpads run linux very well in my experience
[13:08] <j0rd_> actionparsnip, for some resaon im only getting directorys from "du ./" not their contents
[13:08]  * dvanstone time to eat
[13:09] <DamienCassou> mgj: thank for the info :-)
[13:09] <mgj> np
[13:09]  * dvanstone wishes everyone a good day
[13:09] <albin> erUSUL, I have DNS set on the wireless, and nothing set for dns on the wired
[13:10] <albin> erUSUL, Any way to change what 'ip route' outputs?
[13:10] <sobersabre> guys, what can cause netbook ubuntu to stall after the choosing of "Try Ubuntu Netbook Edition.."
[13:11] <sobersabre> ?
[13:11] <mgj> DamienCassou, even if you chose not to run linux on it, im really a sucker for thinkpads. Great build quality of the case, and it keeps looking the same even after years of use - unlike laptops that uses more flashy/shiny cases
[13:13] <DamienCassou> mgj: running linux is not an option for me :-)
[13:13] <mgj> =O
 sometimes running from a live distro can be slow
[13:13] <mgj> you mean "NOT running linux is not an option"..... ? =)
[13:13] <j0rd_> can take a bit to get from chooser screen to actual desktop
[13:14] <Sn4k3> can anyone help to record with ffmpeg
[13:15] <jofo> Hello
[13:15] <jofo> I'd like to add a few lines in the file /usr/share/X11/locale/en_US.UTF-8/Compose
[13:15] <jofo> How can I do it?
[13:15] <k4r4mb4> How to find out what my laptop keyboard layout is, so I can choose the right one?
[13:16] <DamienCassou> mgj: there is an updated deb package for natty. Do you think I can install it on maverick (https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/bcmwl/5.60.246.2+bdcom-0ubuntu1) ?
[13:16] <ActionParsnip> sobersabre: bad iso, bad ram
[13:16] <k4r4mb4> jofo nano /usr/share/X11/locale/en_US.UTF-8/Compose
[13:16] <jofo> k4r4mb4 : What does it look like? Do you have a photograph of it?
[13:16] <mgj> DamienCassou, i honestly have no idea, sorry. If you are feeling lucky i guess you can try :)
[13:17] <k4r4mb4> it is almost like this one http://www.dummies.com/how-to/content/the-general-keyboard-layout-on-a-laptop.navId-323008.html
[13:18] <jofo> k4r4mb4> jofo nano /usr/share/X11/locale/en_US.UTF-8/Compose ← In fact I already know how to edit the file. I actually wanted to know how I could propose those additional lines to X.org.
[13:18] <silicone> hi there :)
[13:19] <mgj> hi!
[13:19] <silicone> someone told me you're crazy :)
[13:19] <silicone> in linux :)
[13:19] <silicone> i'm a newbie here :)
[13:19] <DamienCassou> mgj: I'm trying, bye and thank you
[13:20] <mgj> DamienCassou, you're welcome. Good luck!
[13:20] <akaedu> hello ,erveryone
[13:20] <mgj> silicone, "someone" is correct, there are some very skilled people inhere
[13:20] <silicone> one question, why i can't ping my router? but i'm on internet?
[13:21] <k4r4mb4> coz your router does not allow ICMP requests
[13:21] <silicone> from windows i can do it
[13:21] <mgj> silicone, you sure you are pinging the correct IP? Perhaps your router is setup to not respond to pings (for some weird unknown reason)?
[13:21] <andre_pl> my VPN connection stopped working recently after an udpdate and I can't figure out what's wrong with it :( anyone got any troubleshooting ideas? it just refuses to connect.
[13:21] <silicone> from ubuntu can't
[13:21] <krisphillips> Hey guys, I'm trying to create custom desktop environments for users on my network.  I have LDAP and I'm trying to figure out how to copy the icons, gnome panels, etc. so that I can put users in a group and they get a certain setup.  I figure I need to have the group use a .gconf folder I have made, but how do I make an LDAP group use a certain folder?
[13:21] <Ebrahem`> is there a way to create 9.10 startup disk using maverick usb creator?
 it is almost like this one http://www.dummies.com/how-to/content/the-general-keyboard-layout-on-a-laptop.navId-323008.html ← That looks like a common US keyboard layout. No?
[13:22] <krisphillips> Ebrahem, why couldn't you do it?
[13:22] <SpiderFred> hi, I installed updated on lucid and now I cant use flash, and when I click to install it again it say that installer is already installed
[13:22] <k4r4mb4> yes but when I press arrow keys numbers appear instead of moving the cursor
[13:22] <silicone> so nobody knows? :)
[13:23] <mgj> SpiderFred, did you try restarting your browser?
[13:23] <krisphillips> silicone, you can't ping your router?
[13:23] <Ebrahem`> krisphillips, I get unkown keyword error and stuff. while googling, it says maverick cannot create old startup disks due to incompatibility
[13:23] <silicone> kris, yes
[13:23] <jofo> k4r4mb4 : That's strange. I don't know your configuration.
[13:23] <krisphillips> silicone, this might sound patronizing and please don't take it this way, but are you sure of your router's IP address?
[13:23] <SpiderFred> mgj, yes I did and it didnt helped
[13:23] <napster> How can I put the window titles to the center?
[13:23] <silicone> ok, i tried now from terminal, it was possible..
[13:23] <saikat> hello :-)
[13:24] <krisphillips> Ebrahem, try using netbootin
[13:24] <lixinfish> hello, I have several partition using btrfs, and when I try to create a deb from .run file, also when I try to download the latest vmware, the error comes out like "Your hard drive is full. "
[13:24] <silicone> that time i tried from network management
[13:24] <lixinfish> why is this? I have a lot free space in my disks
[13:24] <krisphillips> silicone: what is yoru default gateway showing up as?
[13:24] <krisphillips> *your
[13:24] <silicone> router is my default gateway
[13:25] <silicone> 192.168.1.1
[13:25] <krisphillips> and if you open terminal and type "ping 192.168.1.1" it gives you timeouts?
[13:25] <k4r4mb4> try to ping the router as a root
[13:25] <silicone> kris, from terminal everithing works just fine... from ping - network tools. i can't
[13:26] <ActionParsnip> lixinfish: you can check with: df -h
[13:26] <ActionParsnip> k4r4mb4: why ping as root? users can ping
[13:26] <krisphillips> silicone, try launching the net tools as root from command line
[13:26] <k4r4mb4> ok
[13:26] <mgj> so much careless root usage =P
[13:26] <silicone> kris, how?
[13:26] <ActionParsnip> k4r4mb4: it was a question, why as root?
[13:27] <krisphillips> mgj, pinging from terminal might not matter, but sometimes network tools has permissions problems.
[13:27] <ragax> !italia
[13:27] <ragax> !it
[13:27] <lixinfish> ActionParsnip: and..then? the partition is 97% but have 28G free space
[13:27] <silicone> i don't know commands in ubuntu ;(
[13:27] <karthick87> pksadiq: i have installed stackapplet now..I tried adding it to my panel but i can see only a single dot.And the applet is not visible..
[13:27] <krisphillips> silicone: open terminal, type su, put in your root password, then type the command line name of the application you are trying to run and it should launch as root
[13:27] <silicone> how to  start with root priveleges?
[13:27] <saikat> from last 2 days i am having a problem in my acer aspire 5745 laptop, just after installing latest update the NumPad stops working , plase help !!
[13:28] <ActionParsnip> lixinfish: should be enough, do you have write access to where the deb is being made?
[13:28] <Dr_Willis> silicone:  ping ip#, or sudo ping ip#
[13:28] <mgj> krisphillips, alright.... i dont use network tools, wouldn't know. Just seems strange to me that it would require root
[13:28] <ActionParsnip> silicone: sudo -i    will give you a root terminal
[13:28] <Dr_Willis> Ive seen ping locked down on some disrtos. never noticed it on ubuntu.
[13:28] <krisphillips> mgj: Seems strange to me too, but I've had it happen before.  Don't ask me why.  F-ing technology is all I have to say to that.
[13:28] <mgj> =)
[13:28] <ActionParsnip> silicone: you must tread VERY carefully with it as you can ruin your OS with bad commands
[13:28] <krisphillips> :P
[13:28] <silicone> su: Authentication failure hmmm
[13:29] <gp500> yeah, IRC for the first time in surely 10years
[13:29] <k4r4mb4> yeah ping is locked , they think you can hack with ping
[13:29] <Dr_Willis> silicone:  its sudo, not su.
[13:29] <krisphillips> silicone: you need to type in the password for your ROOT user
[13:29] <lixinfish> ActionParsnip: I used sudo, and still reporting error.
[13:29] <Dr_Willis> My Ping Permissions are --> ls -l /bin/ping
[13:29] <Dr_Willis> -rwsr-xr-x 1 root root 35648 2010-07-28 10:51 /bin/ping
[13:29] <krisphillips> sudo will also work, but I wanted to go full root just to rule anything out
[13:29] <DamienCassou> mgj: looks like the update of the driver worked correctly. The problem has disappeared too but it may reappear
[13:29] <mgj> ActionParsnip, like doing "chmod 666 /" as root. It did not work out well. Dont ask why i once thought it would be a good idea....
[13:30] <ActionParsnip> mgj: yikes
[13:30] <krisphillips> mgj: I can see why that wouldn't work out well ;) .
[13:30] <mgj> DamienCassou, awesome!
[13:30] <ActionParsnip> krisphillips: there is no pasword for the root user....
[13:31] <DamienCassou> mgj: don't know : I had to reboot to complete the installation of the update and, as I told you, last time I rebooted the problem went away.
[13:31] <mgj> krisphillips, it was interesting. My user no longer had access to "su" or "sudo" so i was pretty screwed
[13:31] <silicone> i have only one user and one pass. an this pc.. i type it and it shows me the failure
[13:31] <krisphillips> ActionParsnip: Perhaps not, but until you set one you can't authenticate
[13:31] <DamienCassou> mgj: will see
[13:31] <Dr_Willis> sudo - uses the initial users password.
[13:31] <mgj> DamienCassou, ah.... the exciting waiting-game begins then =)
[13:31] <DamienCassou> mgj: looks like so
[13:31] <ActionParsnip> krisphillips: your first user can use sudo and use its own password to authenticate admin access
[13:31] <krisphillips> Dr_Willis: Yes, but sudo only elevates the current users permissions and still isn't as high as root
[13:32] <ActionParsnip> krisphillips: sounds like you are confusing root with users in the admin group which can use sudo, there is a massive difference
[13:32] <Dr_Willis> krisphillips:   theres sudo -i and sudo -s. Theres not really any differances that ive ever seen between using thiose and logging in directly as root.
[13:32] <ActionParsnip> krisphillips: it's equal to root when you use sudo
[13:32] <krisphillips> ActionParsnip: Quite the opposite.  I'm saying they are nothing alike.  root has WAY more permissions that a sudo'ed user
[13:32] <Dr_Willis> I note that 'ping' is 'suid' bit set. (here at least) so ping should be running as root anyway.
[13:33] <k4r4mb4> why is ping considered dangerous so users can not ping?
[13:33] <ActionParsnip> krisphillips: it really doesn't, the command is ran AS root when you use sudo and gksudo, you can see it if you run: ps -ef   and look at the command you ran
[13:33] <silicone> syn attack :)))))
[13:33] <Dr_Willis> k4r4mb4:  some very 'locked down' systems feel that many of the network testing tools are not needed by a normal user.
[13:33] <ElNota> k4r4mb4: It isn't dangerous, it just tells to another user "Yes, I'm here!"
[13:33] <ElNota> Or to a webpage
[13:34] <Dr_Willis> ping can be abused i imagine. somehow. :)
[13:34] <krisphillips> Dr_Willis: True, but that's like saying that Ubuntu should recognize my monitor's screen resolution correctly without me needing to edit the xorg.conf file ;) .  (hint: it doesn't).  HAHA.
[13:34] <ActionParsnip> Dr_Willis: floodpin, ping -f ;)
[13:34] <Dr_Willis> krisphillips:  i dont have a xorg.conf
[13:34] <silicone> don't type so fast :)
[13:34] <krisphillips> Dr_Willis: Most people don't anymore, but Ubuntu still doesn't display my monitor correctly unless I make one
[13:34] <Dr_Willis> silicone:  so.. does just 'ping your.routers.ip.number' work or not?
[13:35] <ActionParsnip> krisphillips: it can be used if you like
[13:35] <krisphillips> Dr_Willis: He said that ping from terminal works to 192.168.1.1
[13:35] <silicone> willis, from terminal yes, from network tool - not...
[13:35] <krisphillips> Just not his net tools
[13:35] <Dr_Willis> so its the gui network tool thats the issue.. id run that network tool from a terminal, and see if any error messages show up.
[13:36] <LuitvD> my PC won't boot properly anymore, since yesterday's updates
[13:36] <krisphillips> Dr_Willis: That's why I suspected a permissions issue somewhere.  Why would terminal be able to do it but not a tool that just runs a terminal application?
[13:36] <LuitvD> running Lucid
[13:36] <LuitvD> what can I do to get it running again?
[13:36] <Dr_Willis> krisphillips:  perhaps that tool is not using the the ping cli program. but its own ping...
[13:36] <krisphillips> LuitvD, going to need a bit more information than "Its broke"
[13:37] <krisphillips> Dr_Willis: Possibly.  Not really sure, which is why I say just try running it as root, then try with a sudo'ed user
[13:37] <krisphillips> if it works as root
[13:37] <rezolute> I've seen so many 'my pc wont boot properly after updating' comments in there that I'm staying away from ubuntu for a bit longer. heh.
[13:37] <silicone> how to start a prog from command line? just typing network Tool??? :) sory, i'm a bit newbie here
[13:38] <LuitvD> krisphillips: it seems to boot up properly up until the boot splash screen disappears and the screen remains blank
[13:38] <LuitvD> not even raising the elephant get's it back on it's feet
[13:38] <krisphillips> LuitvD, does it boot in recovery mode?
[13:38] <LuitvD> krisphillips: in low graphics mode it does, yes
[13:39] <krisphillips> LuitvD, then its likely that XServer screwed the pooch when you updated it or a video driver did
[13:39] <silicone> so tell me please how to launch the programm from command line?
[13:39] <krisphillips> What graphics adapter do you use?
[13:39] <LuitvD> krisphillips: I thought so... I have a Radeon 5770, so you reckon which driver I use :P
[13:39] <krisphillips> silicone: We already told you what to do.  You type the name of the application in terminal to run it
[13:40] <pokoko222_> for the first time my ubuntu has failed me, it starts just the prompt what is going on?
[13:40] <pokoko222_> how can i fix my ubuntu
[13:40] <krisphillips> LuitvD, did you use the restricted driver (aka fglrx from ATI) or did you just leave it as it was when you installed it?
[13:40] <krisphillips> and use the radeon driver?
[13:40] <silicone> silicone_soul@siliconesoul-desktop:~$ Network Tools Network: command not found
[13:40] <krisphillips> Those are the only two really
[13:40] <Dr_Willis> silicone:  drag/drop the icon to the desktopp. right click on it. select properties.. see wht the actual binary name is called.
[13:40] <silicone> dr, okay..
[13:41] <Dr_Willis> silicone:  the cli command is not going to be 'network tools' i imagine
[13:41] <zhang_> hi
[13:41] <silicone> gnome-nettool this is it?
[13:41] <Dr_Willis> silicone:  run it and see....
[13:41] <krisphillips> silicone: that's it
[13:41] <LuitvD> krisphillips: well, I guess this would be the best reason to reïnstall with 10.10 I guess
[13:42] <krisphillips> LuitvD, reinstall why?
[13:42] <silicone> (gnome-nettool:16553): Gtk-CRITICAL **: IA__gtk_widget_get_toplevel: assertion `GTK_IS_WIDGET (widget)' failed
[13:42] <silicone> when trying to ping
[13:42] <krisphillips> LuitvD, do me a favor.  Open terminal and run lspci -v and tell me what driver is being used for your primary video adapter
[13:42] <LuitvD> krisphillips: I have it running with LVM now too, which I want to change for months
[13:42] <pokoko222> guys why dont i get GUI ubuntu, i just get prompt
[13:43] <LuitvD> krisphillips: in recovery mode?
[13:43] <krisphillips> LuitvD, haha.  Well if you're planning on wiping it out anyway, go for it
[13:43] <krisphillips> LuitvD, wait............crap.  I guess what won't work, since it'll likely say "vesa"
[13:43] <karthick87> pksadiq: stackapplet not seen in the panel
[13:43] <silicone> Dr_Willis, also cant ping :)
[13:43] <LuitvD> krisphillips: normally it'd be running with the proprietary drivers ATi releases
[13:44] <krisphillips> LuitvD: Its up to you.  There are ways we can troubleshoot if you want, but if you prefer to just reinstall go for it
[13:44] <pokoko222> how can i fix my ubuntu guys please help
[13:44] <LuitvD> krisphillips: in recovery mode it still tells me "Kernel driver in use: fglrx_pci
[13:44] <pokoko222> i just get prompt at start
[13:44] <LuitvD> krisphillips: well, I do want to troubleshoot
[13:44] <atxq> I want to access the command line from my server through my laptop. How can I do this?
[13:44] <krisphillips> pokoko222: "Its broke isn't nearly enough information.  Need more please.  How is it "
[13:44] <LuitvD> krisphillips: maybe other people are in the same situation now
[13:44] <krisphillips> broke"
[13:44] <pokoko222> krisphillips i just get prompt at start
[13:45] <pokoko222> and i try dir and cd and all that and my files are fine
[13:45] <pokoko222> but my gui is lost
[13:45] <pokoko222> i have no idea how it hapened
[13:45] <krisphillips> pokoko222: what happens when you try running xstart
[13:45] <pokoko222> just a sec
[13:45] <krisphillips> LuitvD, if you're using fglrx, everytime you update XServer you need to boot into safe graphics mode and reinstall the drivers
[13:45] <Dr_Willis> its 'startx' i belive...
[13:46] <krisphillips> Dr_Willis: Thanks.  My bad.
[13:46] <LuitvD> krisphillips: great :P
[13:46] <LuitvD> krisphillips: thanks :) I'll get the newest drivers then
[13:46] <krisphillips> LuitvD: Don't you love it ;) .
[13:46] <atxq> does anyone know how to access the command line on another ubuntu computer?
[13:46] <krisphillips> LuitvD: Hold up.  I'll get you started
[13:46] <Dr_Willis> atxq:  'ssh' is the answer to that..  once you install the ssh server on the other box.
[13:46] <pokoko222> krisphillips my connection failed i will try now on the other pc
[13:46] <krisphillips> Wait, nevermind
[13:46] <krisphillips> I don't remember your device
[13:47] <krisphillips> Download the latest from ATI, though and it'll fix your graphics issues
[13:47] <LuitvD> yeah
[13:47] <LuitvD> already downloading
[13:47] <mgj> atxq, use ssh
[13:47] <krisphillips> I run about 100 desktops at a school ;)
[13:47] <krisphillips> and they all have ATI cards in them
[13:47] <LuitvD> it's HD 5770 for me ;)
[13:47] <mgj> atxq, if your laptop is running windows, you can use putty for ssh
[13:47] <krisphillips> I'm well aware of how stupid ATI cards can be with linux
[13:47] <atxq> so ssh-server on the other computer and ssh-client on my local one and I can gain access to the other computer?
[13:47] <pokoko222> krisphillips it says no such command exists
[13:47] <LuitvD> love the card, hate the ATi + Linux fail
[13:47] <krisphillips> pokoko222: Then you have a problem
[13:48] <krisphillips> hope you backed up
[13:48] <pokoko222> ouch
[13:48] <mgj> atxq, yeah.... i believe the ssh server package is called openssh-server
[13:48] <script-ek> hi to all
[13:48] <pokoko222> krisphillips so what do i do now
[13:48] <atxq> thanks
[13:48] <Dr_Willis> !ssh | atxq
[13:48] <krisphillips> pokoko222: Welcome to the world of reinstall :)
[13:48] <krisphillips> Then restore from your backup
[13:48] <pokoko222> krisphillips yeah but how
[13:48] <krisphillips> If you made one ;)
[13:48] <mgj> Dr_Willis, nice.... i should learn how to use the bot =P
[13:48] <silicone> One more question please, how can i specify to which partition to install ubuntu? when i try manual mode and trying to do so..it tells me that have no files...
[13:48] <pokoko222> i cant even set the cd as start up krisphillips
[13:48] <LuitvD> krisphillips: aren't the open source drivers in a usable state yet?
[13:48] <script-ek> are there a channel where we can talk of bery hurd kernel problem?
[13:49] <LuitvD> krisphillips: love to try those...
[13:49] <LuitvD> krisphillips: another reason for 10.10 on my desktop: kernel modesetting will probably work there
[13:49] <script-ek> are there a channel where we can talk of very hard kernel problem?
[13:49] <juk> script-ek: what's that?
[13:49] <atxq> thanks
[13:49] <juk> script-ek: oh
[13:49] <krisphillips> LuitvD: I run them now. :) HDMI sound and everything is working now.  KMS will work with the open source and not the ATI driver, but you won't have 3D graphics for gaming.  Its a trade off
[13:49] <script-ek> the problem is with acpi i think
[13:49] <pokoko222> krisphillips wait you mean startx not xstart?
[13:49] <krisphillips> Yes, startx
[13:49] <juk> script-ek: just try to ask
[13:50] <script-ek> sure
[13:50] <pokoko222> dont scare me like that no more :D krisphillips ok so what now i get bash
[13:50] <juk> script-ek: no one is gonna hurt you
[13:50] <LuitvD> krisphillips: HDMI sound worked for me already with 10.04
[13:50] <krisphillips> LuitvD: It always worked with the ATI driver, but I'm just saying that it NOW works with the open source driver.  It didn't used to about a year ago.
[13:50] <silicone> is here any newbie room? :))))))
[13:51] <script-ek> juk: i have a tablet pc with acceleromer, when i rotate my tablet, the screen of it go in power-off, but the system don't crash
[13:51] <juk> silicone: #ubuntu-offtopic
[13:51] <pokoko222> krisphillips sorry connection failed
[13:51] <pokoko222> what did you say
[13:51] <boch> hi all, one question, can i use ubuntu 10.10 as a live distro on my usb stick ??
[13:51] <LuitvD> krisphillips: ah, great :P didn't know it didn't work with open source drivers before
[13:51] <pokoko222> i have bash now
[13:51] <silicone> bosh, you can
[13:51] <Dr_Willis> boch:  yes,.
[13:51] <script-ek> i have this message from dmesg
[13:51] <krisphillips> LuitvD: Yup :P .  Thats why I used to use fglrx.  However, the lack of KMS was ticking me off once that feature came out after 9.04
[13:51] <anirudhr> Hello, has anyone here been able to get the embedded terminal in nautilus elementary working on 10.04?
[13:52] <bobbi> hey all. i have a shell script string variable (sh) and i need to apply the string "=?ISO-8859-1?Q?" at the start and "?=\r\n" at the end. how do i do this?
[13:52] <bazhang> anirudhr, from the 3rd party PPA?
[13:52] <krisphillips> Stupid green artifacts before and after logging in and out were bugging me
[13:52] <Xeross> Is there a way to do the same as "Networking->Enable Wireless" from the command line ?
[13:52] <LuitvD> krisphillips: I'm really interested on AMD/ATi's view on Wayland... would be awesome if they'd work on it (as nVidea already told us they won't (yet))
[13:52] <boch> Dr_Willis: should i install it in a particular way? i mean, to load the system to RAM
[13:52] <juk> script-ek: pastebin, but unless tablet running ubuntu wrong channel
[13:52] <pokoko222> krisphillips buddy what now?
[13:52] <krisphillips> pokoko222: try running in recovery mode
[13:52] <dakochan> Hi, my composite is not working...
[13:52] <greenleaf> ?
[13:52] <script-ek> juk: ACPI: EC: GPE storm detected, transactions will use polling mode
[13:52] <pokoko222> krisphillips how
[13:53] <krisphillips> LuitvD: Nice thing about both companies is that there are open source drivers ;) .  At least we can get Wayland working with the open source.
[13:53] <script-ek> juk: where i can go?
[13:53] <dakochan> anyone has problem with compiz today?
[13:53] <juk> script-ek: your tablet channel
[13:53] <LuitvD> krisphillips: yeah :D
[13:53] <krisphillips> pokoko222: hold the shift key when you're computer is booting up.  You'll get the GRUB menu and you can select recover mode from the list
[13:54] <pokoko222> krisphillips and then what
[13:54] <script-ek> what is the channel of my tablet?
[13:54] <LuitvD> krisphillips: oeh, I just found out I was still running 10.9 drivers ...
[13:54] <pokoko222> i did that actually
[13:54] <pokoko222> fix broken packages?
[13:54] <LuitvD> krisphillips: 10.10 would have run much better
[13:54] <krisphillips> pokoko222: Fix your graphics issues using the premade menu option
[13:54] <juk> script-ek: first you tell me, what color socks im wearing
[13:54] <krisphillips> LuitvD: There aren't many changes from 10.9 and 10.10
[13:54] <pokoko222> krisphillips sorry what premade option?
[13:54] <krisphillips> Mostly just minor artifacts bugs
[13:55] <xwjie> ?
[13:55] <krisphillips> pokoko222: There is an option that says something about "Fix graphics problems" or something like that
[13:55] <BluesKaj> howdy
[13:55] <script-ek> juk, where i have to go?
[13:56] <LuitvD> krisphillips: and proper GL ES support
[13:56] <juk> script-ek: what kind of colour my socks?
[13:56] <script-ek> what is the socks?
[13:56] <krisphillips> LuitvD: Oh rly?  I didn't see that one in the change list :D
[13:56] <script-ek> juk: what is the socks?
[13:56] <krisphillips> LuitvD: I'll have to try it out and see what I see ;0
[13:56] <LuitvD> krisphillips: the 10.10 one, 10.11 was less impressive
[13:56] <zkriesse_> juk: And script-ek move that to #ubuntu-offtopic
[13:57] <krisphillips> They're already on 10.11
[13:57] <krisphillips> I haven't kept up since i switched to radeon
[13:57] <krisphillips> for my driver for my graphics adapters at the school
[13:57] <juk> script-ek: :p
[13:57] <LuitvD> 10.9 > 10.10 should have been (a bit) better with 2D performance too
[13:57] <tgywa> Hi ...
[13:57] <script-ek> hehe
[13:58] <script-ek> juk: are there a channel dedicate to linux kernel?
[13:58] <tgywa> How can I know the parent process of a given process ?
[13:58] <Cygn> Jordan_U told me earlier in this Chan, that the fourth partition of my MBR is obvious the Reason why my partitions overlap and i cannot boot ubuntu. Can anyone tell me, how the "bootability" of my MAC OS X could be effected if i delete this fourth entry from my MBR? (MBR+Partitions+Error: http://www.3tagetape.de/GRUB.pdf)
[13:58] <juk> script-ek: #kernel?
[13:58] <krisphillips> LuitvD: I'm just getting ticked that nobody has bothered to look at my bug report I submitted about 2 weeks ago for a segmentation fault with the radeon driver :(
[13:59] <greenleaf99> what's with the ongoing problem with ICEauthority??
[13:59] <juk> script-ek: #kernelnoobs
[13:59] <LuitvD> krisphillips: segmentation fault with what? VT switching perhaps?
[13:59] <krisphillips> LuitvD: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xorg/+bug/674112
[13:59] <script-ek> juk: i am the only one user of this channel
[13:59] <LuitvD> ah, multiseat X
[14:00] <pokoko222> krisphillips there is no such option
[14:00] <lea123> Hello I wonder if GRC is a reputed website to do an audit of our machine....
[14:01] <LuitvD> krisphillips: yay, it booted normally again
[14:01] <LuitvD> krisphillips: thanks for that :)
[14:01] <krisphillips> LuitvD: NP :P
[14:01] <juk> !ask | script-ek
[14:01] <durt> lea123, grc.com has been around for a while, what do you mean audit?
[14:01] <LuitvD> krisphillips: finally the high-pitch fan noise stopped :P
[14:02] <krisphillips> HAHA
[14:02] <LuitvD> (my graphics card struggling)
[14:02] <krisphillips> LuitvD: Can't..............control...................fan........................speed
[14:02] <LuitvD> krisphillips: yeah :-P heheh
[14:02] <krisphillips> lol
[14:02] <krisphillips> Your video card was unhappy ;)
[14:02] <LuitvD> krisphillips: the card does, actually
[14:03] <LuitvD> krisphillips: instead of the driver
[14:03] <lea123> I am using 10.10 and it says port1 is open  and its
[14:03] <lea123> true stealth analysis shows as failed for me
[14:03] <lea123> Name: tcpmux
[14:03] <lea123> Purpose: 	TCP Port Service Multiplexer
[14:03] <FloodBot1> lea123: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[14:03] <LuitvD> krisphillips: at bootup it's noisy until the driver gets loaded, but when it's running for a while without the driver it's even more noisy when it warms up
[14:03] <krisphillips> Gotcha
[14:03] <LuitvD> anyway, I'm off then
[14:03] <crashanddie_> How should I record sound being played at the moment?
[14:04] <LuitvD> I'll remember to fix this before rebooting into an updated X now :)
[14:04] <lea123> durt: I mean a security check of system prepardness...
[14:04] <juk> crashanddie_: sound recorder
[14:04] <crashanddie_> juk, where do I select the sound output as recording input?
[14:05] <juk> crashanddie_: you confused me
[14:05] <krisphillips> So, does anybody know how I can create custom desktop environments for users in a certain group?
[14:05] <crashanddie_> juk, I want the output of my soundcard to be recorded
[14:05] <pokoko222> please someone help, how do i get my ubuntu GUI back?
[14:05] <durt> lea123, you mean a port scan, ya, grc is ok. He's been around for a long time. But interpret the results correctly. An d understand what's going on between that machine and grc.com
[14:05] <Xeross> How can I have wireless enabled at boot ?
[14:06] <juk> crashanddie_: i got you, you whant to record any sounds playing on your desktop, right?
[14:06] <crashanddie_> aye
[14:06] <krisphillips> pokoko222: Like I said, you're likely going to have to reinstall
[14:06] <tieinv> lea123  you could ask in #GRC
[14:07] <juk> !recordmydesktop| crashanddie_
[14:07] <juk> !recordmydesktop | crashanddie_
[14:07] <crashanddie_> you broke it!
[14:07] <napster> How can I put the window titles to the center?
[14:07] <AdvoWork> anyone recommend a network designer, ie like visio but for ubuntu? tired dia and its "ok" but not perfect..
[14:08] <pokoko222> krisphillips ok but how
[14:08] <krisphillips> Put in your disc and wipe your machine
[14:08] <krisphillips> pokoko222: What do you mean, how?  Same way you installed Ubuntu the first time
[14:08] <Cygn> Can anyone tell me how i get to know what happens if i delete this obvisiusly silly entry or could point me to a channel even more fitting for the topic of MBR/Hybrid Boot Managers? i want my ubuntu back :( http://www.3tagetape.de/GRUB.pdf (The Last Entry)
[14:09] <pokoko222> krisphillips well the thing is it does not boot from cd for some reason
[14:09] <durt> AdvoWork, not unless you want to customise one of the cad programs, dia is it.
[14:09] <krisphillips> pokoko222: if it doesn't boot from CD, check your BIOS settings
[14:09] <mojo_> e
[14:09] <pokoko222> i did set that up but still it does not read the cd
[14:10] <krisphillips> pokoko222: Then you have a bad drive or a bad CD.  Only explanation
[14:10] <krisphillips> if your machine won't boot from a CD, that's a machine issue
[14:10] <krisphillips> Not an ubuntu issue
[14:10] <pokoko222> i have windows xp cd in my cdron but does not matter, it still does not read the cd at all
[14:11] <pokoko222> it is OS issue cant be hardware
[14:11] <meanieface> pokoko222: are you saying you can boot an xp disc?
[14:12] <pokoko222> yes it is botable
[14:12] <pokoko222> why not, you can do it before you enter in linux
[14:12] <meanieface> pokoko222: perhaps its how you burned the disc
[14:12] <pokoko222> heh nope, it does not show on screen that it will boot it
[14:12] <meanieface> pokoko222: im asking can you boot to ANY disc
[14:13] <pokoko222> seems not
[14:13] <pokoko222> it should give message that it tries to do that but it does not
[14:13] <meanieface> then it is definitely your rom drive, not the os's problem
[14:13] <Guest13294> Can someone help me with actually getting my "emerald"  theme working with compiz? Each time I run "emerald --replace", my screen refreshes, and all my "close/minimize/etc" buttons disappears from the windows. Then the screen refreshes again with the "buttons" reappearing.
[14:13] <pokoko222> it ignores my bios setup where i setup the cd as first
[14:14] <meanieface> pokoko222: it won't give you an error all the time when you try to boot from a disc

[14:16] <[1ur1]> I installed ubuntu for 32bits when it should have been 64... do I need to reinstall or is there any way to change systems architecture?
[14:16] <LadyNikon> [1ur1]: reinstall... i had the same problem
[14:16] <Guest13294> [1ur1]: To be very honest, I would rather do a re-install of Ubuntu.
[14:16] <a931bw> a931bw@a931bw-desktop:~$ wine '/home/a931bw/GTAViceCity/gta-vc.exe'
[14:16] <a931bw> and then it freesez
[14:16] <a931bw> freezes
[14:16] <a931bw> nothing happens
[14:16] <a931bw> but its still running
[14:16] <FloodBot1> a931bw: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[14:17] <LadyNikon> a931bw: you have to limit your pastes and lines to 3
[14:17] <Guest13294> [1ur1]: You're in luck if you own a USB flash drive device. (usb install is faster/better).
[14:17] <LadyNikon> so if you don't type in a sentence .. you will probably get kicked for flooding
[14:17] <[1ur1]> LadyNikon, Guest13294: Thank you... I'll do it
[14:17] <[1ur1]> ;-)
[14:17] <a931bw> ok, any ideas whats wrong?
[14:18] <LadyNikon> !wine
[14:18] <BluesKaj> [1ur1], 32 bit runs just as well as 64 bit unless you have more than 4G of Ram , otherwise you won't notice any performance improvement
[14:18] <Xeross> How can I have wireless enabled at boot ?
[14:18] <juk> LadyNikon: no, just don't use enter as punctuation
[14:19] <LadyNikon> juk: freezes enter nothing happens enter.. those arent sentences.. hence enter isnt a punchuation
[14:19] <c0nv1ct> a931bw, how did you install the game?
[14:19]  * LadyNikon cant spell til her coffee is ready
[14:19] <a931bw> from installer
[14:19] <a931bw> it works
[14:19] <a931bw> if i double click gta-vc.exe
[14:19] <a931bw> from nautilus
[14:19] <a931bw> but i need to launch it from term
[14:19] <LadyNikon> a931bw: remember that sentence thing we just talked about?
[14:19] <a931bw> sorry, forgot.
[14:19]  * Guest13294 sends LadyNikon a coffee which is now ready to be consumed.
[14:19] <Xeross> a931bw: wine gta-vc.exe
[14:20] <Xeross> a931bw: In folder of the exe file
[14:20] <c0nv1ct> a931bw, have you tried from the menu?
[14:20]  * LadyNikon drinks :D and thanks Guest13294 
[14:21] <a931bw> convct
[14:21] <a931bw> i want to add it to menu
[14:21] <a931bw> i'm using fluxbox
[14:21] <a931bw> xeross
[14:21] <FloodBot1> a931bw: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[14:21] <a931bw> it owrks
[14:22] <c0nv1ct> a931bw, fluxbox-generate-menu doesn't pick it up?
[14:22] <a931bw> it doesn't
[14:23] <c0nv1ct> a931bw, you are going to get kicked if you don't stop flooding.  use complete sentences...
[14:23] <atxq> so every time I coonect an usb flash driver os sd card, I get a pop up windows asking me which appication to open with. how can I disables this?
[14:24] <a931bw> Fluxbox menu gen, doesn't pick it up

[14:31] <c0nv1ct> WilliamHerry, you'll probably need to convert it to iso with bchunk
[14:32] <WilliamHerry> bchunk need .cue file, which i lost
[14:32] <WilliamHerry> i don't have .cue file
[14:32] <c0nv1ct> WilliamHerry, make a new one? they are just simple text files
[14:33] <atxq> you can make a new .bin file
[14:33] <WilliamHerry> how to make a new one
[14:34] <jyg> Hello all
[14:34] <c0nv1ct> WilliamHerry, does fuseiso need a cue?
[14:34] <jyg> every since I upgraded to 10.10 my phone no longer mounts
[14:34] <WilliamHerry> i try
[14:34] <jyg> i'm looking at /var/log/messages and it seems to recognize usb storage
[14:34] <jyg> and it does a usb mode switch
[14:35] <jyg> but I never get a device (let along an automount)
[14:35] <jyg> er, let alone
[14:35] <jyg> i just did an apt-get upgrade, didn't help
[14:35] <c0nv1ct> jyg, dmesg would be the place to look, not syslog
[14:35] <Stam> What linux distro will run fast on a 300mhz 300 mb ram pc??
[14:35] <ikonia> Stam: we only support ubuntu here
[14:36] <Stam> ikonia: will ubuntu run
[14:36] <WilliamHerry> it works , thanks c0nv1ct
[14:36] <wegue> try arch linux?
[14:36] <ikonia> Stam: slowly,
[14:37] <MrsB> Stam try Puppy or Damn Small Linux
[14:37] <Ibyss> Stam: Maybe mint version of debian?
[14:37] <ikonia> Ibyss: mint is based on ubuntu, so it's the same requirements
[14:37] <Stam> Which one is less complicated of them all
[14:37] <Ibyss> ikonia: But that mint is based on debian actually.
[14:38] <jyg> c0nv1ct, yes i mean dmesg
[14:38] <Pici> But this channel still only supports Ubuntu. Try ##linux instead.
[14:38] <Stam> Ibyss: I tried Fedora it was very slow and Ubuntu was sort of slow
[14:38] <ikonia> Pici: nice
[14:38] <pokoko222> how do i open read cd from terminal?
[14:38] <Ibyss> Stam: Which us why I suggest to you "Debian version of  Linuxmint". Based on Debian. Polished debian, you can check the screen shots on their website

[14:46] <captain_> that's not possible

[14:50] <wp1> I treated ntfsresize as if it were resize2fs, eg, I shrunk the volume, remade the partitions, and ran ntfsresize without options (fill the last bit of the shrunken partition).  NTFS now thinks it is 500GB (the former size) when it should be about 420GB.  In other words, it is corrupt and I can't force it to resize.  The NTFS partition is now convinced it is corrupt.  Is there anyway I can reclaim the partition?  I don't care about the missing tail end of data (

[14:57] <wendico> greetzfromme have you try looking for the program in your menus? have you try to configure your menu to show your program? have you try running de command "dockbarx"?

[14:58] <greetzfromme> wendico,  yup to all 3
[14:58] <icarus-c> greetzfromme, is it an applet?
[14:58] <Cygn> ikonia: so everybody can see my partition table, would it help if i rename the file?
[14:58] <wendico> greetzfromme xd
[14:58] <rzq> 这里人挺多阿
[14:58] <ikonia> Cygn: no, just explain what you want to do
[14:58] <ikonia> Cygn: your question made no sense, so explain it
[14:59] <wendico> rzq, are you sure? :)
[14:59] <yangyu> ？？？
[14:59] <wendico> !cn | rzq
[14:59] <greetzfromme> icarus-c,  it's a panel replacement
[14:59] <yangyu> where are you from?
[14:59] <yangyu> ikonia?
[14:59] <c0nv1ct> jyg, it does the same to my phone actually...
[14:59] <icarus-c> greetzfromme, try right click on gnome panel -> add to panel  and see if dockbarx is there

[14:59] <jyg> blargh
[15:00] <wendico> how to patch a driver? can u link something or help me plz?
[15:00] <rzq> how r u
[15:00] <Cygn> ikonia: in this pdf you see my partition and mbr table, the last entry, as you can see points to every block on my whole disk. This makes no sense, especially because there is a working EFI at first at my MBR Table. Because of that i wanted everybody to have a look at the table and tell me if that should effect the other working partitons and how i can delete it
[15:00] <juk> wendico: what driver?
[15:00] <greetzfromme> icarus-c,  nothing
[15:00] <ikonia> Cygn: from what I understand that's how refit works, are you using refit?
[15:00] <Cygn> ikonia: exactly
[15:00] <icarus-c> Cygn, i believe fdisk -l output is more useful
[15:01] <ikonia> Cygn: if you delete it I think refit won't work - so you'll have a non-booting system unless you put something else on the mbr
[15:02] <Cygn> ikonia: that means rEFIt uses two entries in a mbr?
[15:02] <jyg> c0nv1ct, bbiaf
[15:02] <Cygn> ikonia: i was sure that a second entry makes no sense
[15:02] <ikonia> Cygn: no, I think the first boots the program, the second is a "virtual" entry, I'm, not %100 on refit though
[15:02] <ikonia> Cygn: maybe ask the guys in ##apple
[15:03] <Cygn> ikonia: but that would mean that my partitions would contain twice as much space as my disk has... that's impossible

[15:16] <rah> I can't believe that with 650MB, LVM doesn't come with everything
[15:17] <Pici> rah: Its not something that most users need for their desktop installs.
[15:17] <rah> Pici, I beg to differ
[15:17] <rah> why would someone do an install *without* LVM?
[15:17] <c0nv1ct> rah, because they dont need it?
[15:18] <rooks> yeah, lvm is for specyfics stuff
[15:18] <goltoof_> there's a lot of ways to search for something, locate grep find etc, what's one command i can use to find a string virtually anywhere on the system?
[15:18] <c0nv1ct> rah, lvm is very useful on my server, which was available on the ubuntu-server disc, but not so much for my desktop
[15:18] <rah> c0nv1ct, by that logic, insurance is unnecessary

[15:22] <goltoof_> jrib:   search for something... did i mention that? :P
[15:22] <jrib> :/
[15:22] <Pici> goltoof_: You'd need two commands to search.  One for file names and one for stuff inside files.
[15:22] <goltoof_> Pici:  i figured that
[15:22] <goltoof_> Pici:  and dir names too ?
[15:22] <basyirstar1> ikonia, i have join, now what?
[15:22] <ikonia> basyirstar1: ask your question

[15:26] <iszak> So I've installed gnome-main-menu and want a quick search in the menu, how can I do that?
[15:27] <juk> iszak: try gnome-do
[15:27] <MatterOfFact> Sure, but with Gnome crashed, alt-f2 wouldn't work, would it?
[15:27] <Gloch> hmm seems all i had to do was delete the .gnome dir after all :)
[15:27] <maxehmookau> Hi, wondered if anyone can help me. I'm trying to isntall Ubuntu 10.10 netbook on an acer netbook off a usb stick. The injstallation won't find the hard drive and tries to isntall on the memory stick
[15:27] <ActionParsnip> maxehmookau: did you MD5 test the ISO you put on the USB stick?
[15:27] <iszak> juk, I kind of just want it in the menu like on windows 7.
[15:28] <maxehmookau> actionparsnip: yep
[15:28] <BluesKaj> pw-toxic, this is a good tutorial : http://hintsforums.macworld.com/archive/index.php/t-29244.html
[15:28] <pw-toxic> BluesKaj, thanks this was whati was looking for.. i just didnt remember the "scp" command
[15:28] <ActionParsnip> maxehmookau: ok then run:
 np
[15:28] <ActionParsnip> maxehmookau: dmesg | less    ,see if the drive is detected
[15:29] <maxehmookau> actionparsnip: how can i do that from the installer? also, i'm fairly sure the drive isn't detected, it doesn't show up in the partition manager
[15:29] <iszak> supposedly it's baked in, but I can't find it.
[15:29] <juk> iszak: you may report your wishes somewhere to gnome devs
[15:30] <sirlark> Juk: dpkg was interrupted, you must manually run 'sudo dpkg --configure -a' to correct the problem; did that, but still get errors: dpkg: unrecoverable fatal error, aborting: files list file for libao-common is missing final newline
[15:30] <iszak> juk, my wishes already exists it seems.

[15:39] <ActionParsnip> bobbi: no worries duder
[15:39] <iszak> Thanks anyway juk, seems there's a bug report for it anyway.
[15:40] <juk> iszak: yeah you may bump them
[15:40] <bobbi> ActionParsnip: i have this program i need for my script, makemime, but it only comes buntled in the package maildrop which requires exim4 mta and so on. how do i just install makemime?
[15:40] <wendico> i want to patch a driver, can i just use "patch -p0" from wich folder should i run it, can y paste after the command the content of the patch or should i create a file with the patch?
[15:40] <iszak> juk, no account so I can't.
[15:41] <juk> iszak: get one
[15:42] <iszak> Maybe later.
[15:42] <ActionParsnip> bobbi: you could pin the packages you don't want and they wont be installed. The packages are deps so should be installed.
[15:43] <juk> iszak: there are forums brainstorm launchpad
[15:43] <UserX7> how do i remove a file that end with a " in command line?
[15:43] <juk> UserX7: you tab

[15:45] <UserX7> erUSUL: didn't recognise the file when i did that
[15:46] <Chr|s> im having mic issues trying to set up teamspeak
[15:46] <UserX7> nevermind -- turns out it wasn't a " but a ”
[15:46] <bobbi> ActionParsnip: hmmm ok, pin.... i haven't got any problems with installing a lot of packages and deps, but aint it a bad idea to got a lot of mta's running when your not using them?
[15:46] <ActionParsnip> dwarder: if its for mounting or fstab, ust use auto
[15:46] <erUSUL> UserX7: worked here
[15:46] <UserX7> i.e. file and file” in that dir -- so couldn't tab complete
[15:46] <Silasle> What is the terminal command to get the numbers of the mouse buttons?
[15:47] <UserX7> " != ”. i thought it was a "
[15:47] <erUSUL> Silasle: numbers?
[15:47] <ActionParsnip> bobbi: not sure
[15:47] <Silasle> erUSUL,  button1,button2, aren't they called names like these?
[15:47] <ActionParsnip> Silasle: use xev and press the buttons
[15:47] <bobbi> ActionParsnip: ok thanks
[15:48] <dwarder> ActionParsnip: udisks --mount /dev/cdrom --mount-fstype=auto ?
[15:48] <erUSUL> Silasle: yes; 1 2 3 from left to right
[15:48] <dwarder> ActionParsnip: Mount failed: Error mounting: mount: you must specify the filesystem type
[15:48] <Silasle> ActionParsnip, Thanks, that was what i wanted!
[15:49] <iszak> juk, any shortcut to show it?
[15:49] <ActionParsnip> dwarder: sure, why not
[15:49] <blackswan> i want to route traffic destined for a particular subnet over a particular interface; is there some program i can use to configure this sort of thing? i know how to do it in a shell script, what i want to know is is there some tool that makes this kind of thing easier.
[15:49] <ActionParsnip> dwarder: i'd rad the udisks manual to see what you should use
[15:49] <ActionParsnip> blackswan: router , is the command you need
[15:49] <ActionParsnip> rote sorry
[15:49] <ActionParsnip> route
[15:50] <ActionParsnip> there. I can now type, next week: fire
[15:51] <blackswan> actionparsnip: i know to use route, i mean is there some fancy routing table configuration utility that sets it all up at boot time and slices your bread for you too, or do i just stick the route commands in a shell script in /etc/init.d and be done with it
[15:51] <ActionParsnip> blackswan: http://linux.about.com/od/commands/l/blcmdl8_route.htm    has some examples too
[15:51] <dwarder> ActionParsnip: ok, thanks
[15:51] <ActionParsnip> blackswan: i'd add them in /etc/rc.local but as long as they get ran its fine
[15:52] <syn-ack> it's called iptables. :P

[15:54] <juk> IcyJ: external display? what's that?
[15:55] <IcyJ> external monitor
[15:55] <IcyJ> a LCD monitor
[15:56] <IcyJ> just your standard run-of-the-mill 19" lcd monitor connected thought the VGA port

[15:56] <Silasle> *remote
[15:56] <IcyJ> how, I see no option like that in the power settings dialog
[15:56] <juk> IcyJ: yeah check in power managment
[15:57] <goltoof_> IcyJ:  no option for what happens when you close the lid?  it should be there
[15:57] <IcyJ> There is "blank screen", suspend, hibernate, and shutdown

[16:00] <ActionParsnip> dv_: there were links at the bottom pointing to ppas though :D

[16:01] <Benkinooby> hi is it possible to have ftp over ssl in nautilus?
[16:01] <IcyJ> juk: it does not suspend, it is just blanking the screen
[16:02] <juk> Benkinooby: nautilus sftp://ipaddress
[16:02] <juk> IcyJ: you sure?
[16:02] <IcyJ> the  laptop stays running, music keeps playing, but the screen goes blank

[16:43] <slgma> something like that?
[16:43] <spotter> ActionParsnip, nope, plain networkmanager
[16:43] <ActionParsnip> slgma: try: man gnomebaker
[16:43] <Acorn> Can anyone help me change the brightness of my laptop's screen?
[16:43] <spotter> says 54Mbps though
[16:43] <Acorn> There are no options in power management and the function keys on my keyboard don't work
[16:44] <Acorn> I have a Sony Vaio pcg-fx701
[16:44] <ActionParsnip> spotter: G == 54mbps
[16:44] <spotter> well, could be the card isn't doing N
[16:44] <shashwatpns> How to add a grub2 entry or make it automatically search the disk for OS(s) or install K Grub Editor in ubuntu (GRUB2)???
[16:44] <spotter> wlan0     IEEE 802.11abg  ESSID:"shaya-n"
[16:44] <Broder> Sorry, I can't see any option in parted to manipulate ext4 filesystem options
[16:44] <slgma> ActionParsnip, i dont see anything other than gnomebaker [options]]
[16:44] <spotter> but it does N in windows
[16:44] <cfs_xubuntu> I have a question, probably quite trivial for most of you. How do I change the background login image in xubuntu 10.10?
[16:44] <ActionParsnip> spotter: n == 160mbps
[16:44] <Acorn> this is really hurting my eyes :(
[16:44] <spotter> ActionParsnip, I know
[16:45] <ActionParsnip> slgma: not sure then dude
[16:45] <slgma> :(
[16:45] <slgma> you load gnomebaker before the iso everytime? that seems inconvenient
[16:45] <slgma> if you burn alot of movies i mean
[16:45] <slgma> i like just double clicking the iso and it opening up ready to burn
[16:45] <cablop> how can i edit the locale?
[16:45] <Dr_Willis> !locale
[16:45] <ActionParsnip> slgma: i dont burn much as I have a fileserver but yeah i open the app then the iso
[16:46] <cablop> i want it to show some things correctly
[16:46] <cablop> or custom
[16:46] <slgma> well thanks anyway, gnomebaker is an awesome app
[16:46] <spotter> hmm
[16:46] <slgma> it handles isos way better than brasero
[16:46] <spotter> [234617.776058] iwlagn 0000:03:00.0: Tunable channels: 13 802.11bg, 24 802.11a channels
[16:46] <cablop> like time in 24h or use date in ISO format
[16:46] <slgma> and for some reason, brasero doesnt know how to eject my dvd drive
[16:46] <slgma> but gnome baker does
[16:46] <spotter> why isn't it doing N
[16:46] <Dr_Willis> slgma:  brassero has all sorts of bugs/quirks it seems.
[16:46] <slgma> i hope canonical decides to go with gnomebaker over brasero in the future, they defintely made a bad call replacing pidgin with empathy
[16:46] <slgma> Dr_Willis, agreed
[16:47] <slgma> the newest one does an image checksum every time
[16:47] <slgma> takes like an extra 10 minutes
[16:47] <slgma> and i can tfind out how to turn it off
[16:47] <Broder> are you sure that gparted is my solution?
[16:47] <ActionParsnip> slgma: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=828468
[16:47] <slgma> if you use kde apps while using gnome ubuntu- do the kde libraries stay loaded after you close the kde apps?
[16:48] <spotter> http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1323025
[16:48] <slgma> thanks ActionParsnip, you are a gentleman and a scholar
[16:48] <ActionParsnip> slgma: i try :)
[16:48] <slgma> alot more helpful than most people in here, who some wouldve already did !enter > sigma 10x by now
[16:49] <ActionParsnip> spotter: maybe you need a newer driver or a compile tomake it use n
[16:49] <slgma> its hard to type a certain way for 15 years, and do it in every channel on irc except 1
[16:49] <ActionParsnip> slgma: then ease up on the enter key as you are scrolling the channel which isnt cool
[16:49] <spotter> ActionParsnip, I'm using maverick
[16:50] <slgma> well like i said, i try not to
[16:50] <slgma> hard to stop such an old habit, but im glad you are understanding
[16:50] <ActionParsnip> spotter: still may have an older driver than the one you need
[16:50] <ActionParsnip> spotter: the linux driver for your chip may not support n speed
[16:50] <miniwifi> hi can I use secure wifi for mini.iso installation? i.e. netboot
[16:50] <sirdustin> h
[16:51] <sirdustin> hi
[16:51] <ActionParsnip> miniwifi: sure if you can configure it to work
[16:51] <Chaos2358> hey guys need a lil help. I am installing a package from the web. supposed to daownload and extract to /tmp/droidcam/. I download and using archive manager open my sys>tmp and extract there. then try to run in terminal cd/tmp/droidcam but it is telling me it isnt there. when i navigate to the tmp folder i can see the droidcam files i just extracted there though. any help?
[16:51] <miniwifi> How do I do it? DHCP doesnt seem to work and it doesnt ask for PW
[16:51] <slgma> you guys have any expericnce with DeVeDe? im looking for an alternative - or a way to make my options save
[16:52] <cablop> how can i customize or make my own locale for ubuntu? i need to customize some date, cash and time formats
[16:52] <ActionParsnip> miniwifi: do you find SSIDs?
[16:52] <juk> !locale | cablop
[16:52] <miniwifi> BTW Id also appreciate if u told me how to install it from a local .iso instead - Ive just got a flash drive thats only 1gb
[16:53] <miniwifi> no, netboot seems to be only looking for LAN
[16:53] <ActionParsnip> miniwifi: the desktop ISO is only 700Mb so 1Gb is plenty
[16:53] <miniwifi> it says in the docs that 2gb is needed
[16:54] <sirdustin> miniwifi? what are you needing help with?
[16:54] <ActionParsnip> miniwifi: you can use the 1-2-3 creator from pendrivelinux or if you have an installed ubuntu you can use usb-creator
[16:54] <miniwifi> I use unetbootin
[16:55] <ActionParsnip> miniwifi: that'll do too
[16:55] <mod> re all
[16:55]  * duffydack uses isos with grub on his usb stick
[16:55] <mod> hey c0nv1ct, did you happen to figure it out? :)
[16:55] <cablop> thanks juk but this talks only about selecting a locale, not about modify or make your own
[16:56] <miniwifi> ok Ill try proper installation, but netboot would be fun - any ideas on how to attempt setting up wifi with it?
[16:56] <sirdustin> i do
[16:56] <miniwifi> so that packages are downloaded with wifi
[16:57] <hagabaka> do I need to partition/format the USB drive to use it as bootable install media? I used unetbootin on Windows and it worked fine, but when I use dd or unetbootin in Linux, the result doesn't boot
[16:57] <miniwifi> +1 for hagabaka, and if formatting is needed, what file system should we use?
[16:57] <netwrkspider> hi
[16:57] <tato_42> which txt editor is best to use on gnome
[16:57] <home> RAWR
[16:57] <sirdustin>  what you need to do is use a wired connection to up date your wifi part then restart and try the wifi out
[16:58] <sirdustin> minfi
[16:58] <netwrkspider> gedit

[16:59] <Chaos2358> ok let me rephrase this. I have created the folder/directory of "droidcam" in the file system>tmp but when i attempt "cd/tmp/droidcam" I get the returm line "no such file or directory. any help?
[16:59] <hagabaka> I tried making it just contain one partition with FAT16 or FAT32, but neither worked. if I just used dd, fdisk shows it has a "Linux" partition and it didn't work either
[16:59] <goltoof_> tato_42:   not gui, cli..  way more powerful than gedit, but way harder to learn/use
[16:59] <crissi> i still have the problem with hanging ssh connections under maverick.. any ideas what is the problem at 10.10?
[16:59] <netwrkspider> @cri : u r ryt

[17:03] <reber> ActionParsnip, "reber: you could rmmod usb_hid    maybe" Do you think a big pickaxe hit on my laptop would disable my touchpad maybe ?
[17:04] <sirdustin> aww there you go loL its the format here to ask that, so always try to present it
[17:04] <goltoof_> reber:   i think so, but it might disable a few other things as well.. try man pickaxe
[17:04] <ActionParsnip> reber: if you remove the module,it will cease to work, you can modprobe it back in later if you want

[17:16] <stevecoh1> any other partitioning gurus out there?
[17:16] <karthick87> davidsandy: Then just boot your cd by changing the first boot device to CD Rom in Bios..
[17:16] <miniwifi> aka1: but whats the problem?
[17:16] <Phoenixz> I updated my laptop yesterday and ever since my lap is friggin slow, having avg loads of 5 or more.. Any known bug in the last ubuntu update that might be causing this?!?
[17:16] <aka1> miniwifi , it isnt seen by ubuntu

[17:17] <dewy> still nothing
[17:17] <miniwifi> aka1: be sure you turned it on, for me its usually the problem
[17:17] <goltoof_> dewy:  just don't do recursive chmod, unless it doesn't matter to who who has rwx
[17:17] <IdleOne> aka1: you tried going to System > Administration > Printing?
[17:17] <davidsandy> karthick87: but i dont want to get it on the system boot..

[17:18] <dewy> goltoof thanks :) is 755 the correct one because i ddi try that?
[17:18] <stevecoh1> any partition-editing gurus around?
[17:18] <aka1> IdleOne , im on it , but i just have my old printer in there
[17:18] <IdleOne> aka1: ok, click on ADD and search for your model
[17:18] <miniwifi> aka1: next step is ensuring usb is plugged in. Then google "lucid cannot epson" - some guy points to a site with a driver
[17:18] <ActionParsnip> davidsandy: you just tell vbox to use the iso in its cd drive. you dont extract it or anything like that
[17:19] <dewy> goltoof: it must be something like that as i get this error "You don't have permission to access / on this server."
[17:19] <davidsandy> ActionParsnip: didnt get u
[17:19] <cjuner> I am looking for a new netbook or laptop with an intel or amd GPU. Which intel/amd GPUs support vaapi (and are fast enough to play 720p/1080p h264)?
[17:20] <goltoof_> dewy,  in all honesty, i'm kind of struggling with the same issue myself, i moved my default www to ~/localhost and got permission errors.... i'm still not savvy on this whole group/user/permission   :/
[17:20] <juk> davidsandy: what you didn't get? pick iso file in vbox
[17:20] <swim> hey, does anybody know of any channels where i can get help with a lamp installation???
[17:20] <ActionParsnip> davidsandy: in vbox, in the CD drive tab of the virtualbox, point the CD drive to the MD5 tested ISO and it will boot.
[17:20] <cjuner> with a free driver, (not poulsbo!)
[17:20] <goltoof_> dewy:  then php won't work so i kind of gave up because everything important is on my production server anyway
[17:20] <miniwifi> cjuner: r u sure thats #ubuntu material?
[17:21] <goltoof_> swim  #web
[17:21] <dewy> goltoof, was it just not working at all ? or would you see all the php code in the browser
[17:21] <ActionParsnip> !lamp | swim
[17:21] <swim> thanks goltoof
[17:21] <goltoof_> swim #apache .. but i think apache is soemthing else
[17:21] <davidsandy> juk: yeah dude.. thats what the problem is... the ISO directory in found but i dont find any files in it..
[17:22] <juk> davidsandy: you were told to pick iso file not a directory
[17:22] <goltoof_> dewy: it just doesn't display the output
[17:22] <slgma> if you install kde apps (like k9copy, k3b,soundkonverter) it has to download the KDE libs...do those libs stay loaded even after you exit the programs? loaded in memory i mean
[17:22] <juk> davidsandy: moreover md5sum checked
[17:22] <goltoof_> dewy:  completely blank
[17:22] <Doinkle> Hi.  I want to install Virtualbox(I am running 10.10 x64).  Is the PPA route the best way to install it?  I found this page but it is for lucid.  Any hints or suggestions?  Thanks.  http://www.unixmen.com/news-today/1002-virtualbox-32-is-released
[17:22] <goltoof_> dewy:  i had a similar problem before where it prompted to save the php file
[17:23] <goltoof_> dewy:   don't remember how i fixed that though :/
[17:23] <dewy> goltoof: was this line in your virtual hosts "DirectoryIndex index.html"
[17:23] <slgma> Doinkle, do you have ubuntu tweak installed?
[17:23] <Doinkle> slgma, yes.
[17:23] <slgma> go into the source center in it, and enable the virtual box repository
[17:23] <Doinkle> wow. ok
[17:23] <slgma> then install it with synaptic
[17:23] <goltoof_> brb
[17:23] <dan-mytt> Doinkle: There is an up-to-date version in the packages list in synaptics
[17:24] <slgma> Doinkle, the virtual box official source i think
[17:24] <slgma> not the open source edition
[17:24] <ActionParsnip> davidsandy: watch this from 4:10 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HL7kIqGXFrM&feature=related
[17:24] <Doinkle> is it OSE?  i prefer the non-free
[17:24] <slgma> no, not ose
[17:25] <slgma> ose one sucks
[17:25] <slgma> get the other one
[17:25] <netwrkspider> hi
[17:25] <jditto2> i need some help with samba on 10.04.  where is the password file.  it's not /etc/samba/smbpasswd on mine.  i have lost after a distribution upgrade.  i managed to get users from my old smbpasswd file into new one by running pdbedit but now i want to know the location so i can back it up.
[17:25] <netwrkspider> hi
[17:25] <Doinkle> slgma, ya lost me.. i see the virtualbox in the sources list as you said... are you saying this is OSE and NOT non-free?
[17:25] <slgma> if you install kde apps (like k9copy, k3b,soundkonverter) it has to download the KDE libs...do those libs stay loaded even after you exit the programs? loaded in memory i mean
[17:25] <ActionParsnip> !info virtualbox-ose | Doinkle
[17:25] <slgma> theres 2 sources doinkle
[17:25] <slgma> one is ose, the other is not

[17:38] <palmeira> @ JuJuBee just upload it to youtube ;)
[17:38] <ron__> airtonix: not as much as it is right now useually :D
[17:38] <IdleOne> JuJuBee: upload to youtube or whatever video service you like and then embed the player on your site.
[17:39] <airtonix> ron__, but yes i get those same problems. chalk it up to fail microsoft server
[17:39] <JuJuBee> IdleOne: Id rather host it on our web server
[17:39] <JuJuBee> Needs to be on intranet
[17:39] <JuJuBee> not inter
[17:39] <palmeira> JuJuBee: you could convert it to fla
[17:39] <palmeira> JuJuBee: you could convert it to fla video, and embed it on the website
[17:40] <sniperjo> ive got a Ubuntu on a  GMA 500 system and it wont s2ram, instead, it takes me to tty1 and crashed
[17:40] <JuJuBee> palmeira: what do I use to convert to fla?
[17:40] <palmeira> JuJuBee: then it would load the video, inducing a "stream" idea.
[17:40] <airtonix> JuJuBee, apt-cache search transcode
[17:40] <azm> Hi, where can I get restricted drivers manager ?
[17:40] <azm> I dont know how it is called in repos
[17:41] <palmeira> JuJuBee: i don't know how to convert to flv, i'm just saying flv, because almost everyone as flash player, gnash, etc
[17:41] <airtonix> JuJuBee, the concept of converting a video from one format to another is called transcoding (especially when it involves a change of frame rate)
[17:41] <palmeira> JuJuBee: i'm sure you could recode the video with one of the million apps for video encoding
[17:42] <ThePub> When I'm at a commandline, how does the system determine if the command I've attempted to run is in an uninstalled package?  (it gives you the feedback telling how to install it, for example)
[17:42] <SeanInSeattle> Is it possible to run grep recursively and have it output the filename right before the matching line?
[17:43] <palmeira> JuJuBee:  http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=562209 see if it helps
[17:43] <ThePub> SeanInSeattle: yes.. it's an option, read the manual page
[17:43] <huck> hi all, yesterday i installed Windows xp on my second Hd, and today i format the first hd, and installed Ubuntu 10.04 ,now my problem is this, grub2 doesn't work correctly, when i do update- grub on the list Windows xp doesn't exists, so anyone can tell me how to restor grub2 on the start and how add Windows xp on the grub.cfg
[17:43] <NikitaUtiu> hi all
[17:43] <IdleOne> ThePub: the command issued to run an app will go to /usr/bin/app and try to run it. if it is not there it returns info about installing. the exact code used I don't know.
[17:44] <petan> huck: casn you describe where xp are
[17:44] <palmeira> huck: use ubuntu forums, there's plenty of guides and tutorials on how to efectively setup a dual-boot system
[17:44] <azm> Hi, where can I get restricted drivers manager ?

[17:45] <SeanInSeattle> ThePUB:  Thanks dude.  I appreciate it.
[17:45] <huck> petan: yes sda1
[17:45] <ThePub> IdleOne: will have to look a little closer then :)  thank you.  I'd rather just have it run apt-get for me, instead of telling me.  Yes.. I'm laze ;p

[17:45] <azm> Hi, where can I get restricted drivers manager ?
[17:46] <IdleOne> ThePub: that would be a little insecure, if you succeed make sure it asks for sudo pass before installing.
[17:46] <petan> huck: what happens
[17:46] <ThePub> SeanInSeattle: I haven't had to do that for ages though so didn't know.  Glad you found it.  According to the grep on 10.10 the -H option does it, and it should automatically do it when you're recursively searching files.
[17:46] <davi> hi, how can i install codecs in lubuntu
[17:46] <palmeira> wildc4rd: ubuntu comes packed with at least more than 1 alternative, so just test the apps and choose wisely
[17:46] <huck> petan: give me a second , ill try it istantly
[17:46] <NikitaUtiu> airtonix: well, now that was easy
[17:46] <ThePub> IdleOne: It would *have* do, no?  :)  Normal user couldn't just install a package without first using sudo.
[17:46] <IdleOne> JuJuBee: if you want a GUI app try winff
[17:46] <palmeira> davi:  https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats
[17:46] <NikitaUtiu> airtonix: thanks
[17:46] <IdleOne> ThePub: true.
[17:47] <ThePub> IdleOne: it's no less secure though imo than plain text telling a user exactly how to do it anyways.. no?  You still have to supply a password one way or another.
[17:47] <huck> petan: how can i link you the terminal code here? i just paste?

[17:51] <jep1985> i have a question.. how do i stop grub from automatically booting into entry 0.. need to change the timeout and i'm not familiar with grub2 at all
[17:51] <magicianlord> is it safe to install to a single partition sda1, with no swap file with 1gb ram?
[17:52] <palmeira> jep1985: you can just gedit grub
[17:52] <palmeira> jep1985: and edit the timeout, default choice, etc
[17:52] <MrsB> magicianlord its safe but you won't be able to hibernate without a swap, either partition or file. Its sometimes good to have a separate /home in case you need to reinstall or format the root partition it keeps your files safe
[17:53] <magicianlord> i do not like hiberations. i prefer suspend. so its ok
[17:53] <jurgster> hi all, finaly found a way to upgrade to 10.10 from 10.04 and it botches up. running in safe mode with gui but not in normal boot. anyone help

[17:54] <MrsB> magicianlord the defualt low battery behaviour on laptops is usually to hibernate, not sure if it is intelligent enough to realise it cant do so
[17:54] <petan> huck: I tell you what to type in conf file, I am making it now
[17:54] <palmeira> herro: sudo killall processname
[17:54] <huck> petan: thank you very much petan!!!!
[17:55] <magicianlord> MrsB: i changed the behavior to shut down instead, which i prefer
[17:55] <herro> pal it says no process killed
[17:55] <MrsB> you're good to go then magicianlord the memory at 1gb is plenty for everyday use really

[17:57] <pietro10> Hi. I've set up JACK and put in the proper connections, but don't hear anything. JACK is running on alsa; I didn't change any settings. What do I need to do to get it to work?
[17:57] <airtonix> karthick87, it might be if you create a python script to do that (which utilises the openoffice python api)
[17:57] <pietro10> let me pull up my sound hardware...
[17:57] <petan> huck: try it then
[17:57] <goltoof_> karthick87:  consider that there might already be a py script that does that
[17:58] <herro> how do i kill this nohup process? nohup java -Xmx1024M -Xms1024M -jar minecraft_server.jar nogui &
[17:58] <magicianlord> if you dpkg -t firefox and all its dependencies, will apt-get normally upgrade it later ?

[18:00] <huck> petan: i should add it on the finish of all text?
[18:00] <IdleOne> JuJuBee: beats me, press enter and see if it explodes :)
[18:00] <magicianlord> hmm, but that doesn't download hte dependencies
[18:00] <JuJuBee> IdleOne: I did and it just closes the output and does nothing.

[18:07] <Benkinooby> hi, i want to access my folder via ftp. using filezilla with ftp over expicit tls/ssl works fine. but when using nautils, go->location and the type sftp://username@server it asks me for a bassword to unlock some kind of keyring. i gave all passwords that might be connected to that thing but no luck.  what am i doing wring?
[18:07] <IdleOne> Benkinooby: your keyring pass is usually the same as your sudo password
[18:07] <pietro10> What's the proper way to set up JACK in 10.10? I don't hear anything from any program with it up...
[18:08] <archangelpetro> if i update my .bashrc to include a new 'export' environemntal variable.. how do i update it so that this will be globally recognised?

[18:08] <Sirisian|Work_> So we're supposed to be restarting things in the new ubuntu server with "service cups restart" but it just sits there and hangs. The command runs, but you have to press ctrl+c to get back to bash. Why? Seems like a big
[18:08] <Sirisian|Work_> bug*
[18:09] <Benkinooby> IdleOne, i used that one too . no luck. if i click cancle, i am asked to enter a pw again. this time from an other window. this seems to be the pw for the user on the serve. anyways, afterwards it tells me "chould not find username@server/"

[18:09] <share> How can I refresh places in Nautilus
[18:10] <Benkinooby> IdleOne, woha... works :D
[18:10] <IdleOne> Benkinooby: glad I could help
[18:11] <pietro10> share: click the refresh button on the toolbar?
[18:11] <Benkinooby> IdleOne, thx! it wasn't the sudo pw though. i think skiping the first pw-enter-window does the trick :P anyways, thank you for your time and attention
[18:11] <share> pietro10: not that
[18:12] <pietro10> share: then what do you mean by refresh
[18:12] <navneeth> Hi. Is there a way to read the list of PPAs from command line (something akin to opening sources.list for regular repos)?

[18:17] <dewy> Hey im getting this error with a local lamp server "You don't have permission to access / on this server" i have added myself to the group www-data and created a new folder called projects that apache is pointing to. Any ideas?
[18:17] <home> ok.. *sigh*
[18:17] <goltoof_> dewy, sounds more like www-data doesn't have permission to access the dir you specified
[18:17] <home> might have to give up on ubuntu :/
[18:18] <dewy> goltoof :)
[18:18] <home> and go with fedora or MINT
[18:18] <goltoof_> check group perms of the dir and add www-data to the dir
[18:18] <goltoof_> err group
[18:18] <dewy> goltoof any ideas on how to give www-data permission
[18:18] <florian_> home if this is the reason, you  can give up with each linux and bsd operating system
[18:18] <goltoof_> dewy... no  :P
[18:18] <share> rocket16: it does kill nautilus but doesnt solve my problem
[18:18] <ronghail> home:   ok sounds good
[18:18] <goltoof_> not a clue
[18:18] <share> maybe it's maverick bug
[18:19] <rocket16> share: Is it still mounted?
[18:19] <share> rocket16: no
[18:19] <share> rocket16: the problem is ubuntu shows those unmounted devices.. i dont want to logout
[18:19] <DorianST> I have multiple users on my system. How do I make it so on one of my desktop users so that no other users can access/see inside their home folder?
[18:19] <rocket16> share: Then you can start nautilus with gksudo command as root, and try unmounting that.
[18:20] <ronghail> chmod 700 ~user
[18:20] <share> rocket16: root doesnt show them
[18:20] <share> because they are not mounted
[18:21] <rocket16> share: Then I believe it's better to log out, or use "killall -user username" command (Which does nearly the same thing).
[18:21] <goltoof_> dewy:   please let me know if you find out
[18:21] <share> rocket16: whenever i unmount this happens, i think it's a bug
[18:22] <magicianlord> if you install debs via dpkg -i, is that any different than download the same files with apt and having apt-get install them from /apt/archives?

[18:26] <c0nv1ct> http://i.imgur.com/9cgzl.png  <- what could be causing this if not processes or i/o?
[18:27] <klong> does anyone mind sharing their output of: hdparm -tT /dev/sda     ?   im wonder if my results are typical.
[18:28] <bungyfing> How can i get the PID of something thats creating a window, if i dont know the process name
[18:28] <ccta-server> Can anyone recommend a user friendly way to share files with ubuntu through the internet?
[18:28] <SeanInSeattle> Can someone direct me to a tutorial for how to install Empathy themes?
[18:29] <abhijeet> ccta-server, you can have apache server running on your ubuntu machine.
[18:29] <goltoof_> klong,  Timing cached reads:   6628 MB in  2.00 seconds = 3315.65 MB/sec
[18:29] <goltoof_>  Timing buffered disk reads:  394 MB in  3.01 seconds = 131.01 MB/sec
[18:30] <ccta-server> i thought about that, but dont see how users will be able to upload files
[18:30] <abhijeet> ccta-server, otherwise you can use the opera's file sharing feature.. I am not sure if it is available for linux
[18:30] <ccta-server> basically i want them to see the shares as if they were local and be able to access files just like file explorer
[18:31] <c0nv1ct> ccta-server, what you want is a vpn then
[18:31] <MrsB> ccta-server have a look at sshfs and fuse
[18:32] <docsy> hey there quick question, randomly my browser (chrome) has been telling me to install flash player again.  i noticed i did some updates but now i cant get flash going again.  ubuntu 10.10 x64bit.  any help would be appreciated
[18:32] <ccta-server> Which vpn would you recommend that is secure?
[18:32] <ccta-server> sshfs and fuse will work with the users using windows boxes?
[18:32] <ericpersson> I have a "protocol version mismatch" error with input-utils on maverick(10.10) and can find lots of user having the same problem on the net, but cant find a solution, anyone have any clues?
[18:32] <c0nv1ct> ccta-server, openvpn works for me
[18:33] <MrsB> ccta-server nope not the way you want
[18:33] <ccta-server> ok
[18:33] <n2diy>  I just aquired a Compaq Presario with 64m of ram, any hope of loading Xubuntu, or linux on it?
[18:34] <ccta-server> is the builtin vpn client on windows any good
[18:34] <MrsB> n2diy Puppy linux is very resource friendly
[18:34] <ccta-server> pptp?
[18:34] <Junaos> n2dly - You can definitely run linux on that...however, I don't know about running Ubuntu - or any XWindows - unless you went with text mode, ubuntu-minimal
[18:34] <n2diy> MrsB: ok, thanks.

[18:41] <keshav> if apt-get is for installing, what's for uninstalling?
[18:41] <LjL> keshav: still apt-get
[18:41] <llutz> keshav: apt-get
[18:41] <jpds> keshav: apt-get remove <package>
[18:41] <lockersnatch> Magnum: and what is a traitorgnome
[18:43] <rocket16> keshav: It's better to use aptitude rather than apt-get for many issues. It's a polished wrapper added to apt-get.
[18:45] <keshav> Thanks guys. rocket16 thanks! I'll read on it

[19:00] <fuzzyghost> Okay, I've installed OSS, alsa-oss package, but still no sound in Quake 3
[19:00] <webresourc> Help with Virtual Host please on LAMP ?
[19:00] <fuzzyghost> I've posted a couple of threads online.
[19:00] <c0nv1ct> webresourc, if you want help, explain the problem first
[19:00] <Okitain> fuzzyghost: run Q3 under ioQuake3
[19:00] <Pici> webresourc: Can you pastebin your config file
[19:01] <fuzzyghost> @Okitain:  Tried that, IOQuake3 doesn't work.
[19:01] <Okitain> O_o
[19:01] <fuzzyghost> Tried svn build, a couple of run files, and nothing.
[19:02] <CrazyK> Hey there, I was wondering where I could get the latest source.list for 10.10?
[19:02] <fuzzyghost> The SVN failed, and didn't install.
[19:02] <fuzzyghost> The 27MB run generates an executable that does nothing.
[19:03] <CrazyK> Anyone?
[19:03] <fuzzyghost> The other run file (around 2.7 or so MB), requires I build from source, but it doesn't work.
[19:03] <webresourc> c0nv1ct: I have create in my sites-available the file phpbb.nik and I have enter inside info about my virtual host, then I made out a symbolic link of that file in sites-enabled. I have also create the paths for my virtual host that will host my file, and then I create and the hosts record for my site "127.0.0.1    phpbb.nik" finally I restart the Apache but when I enter in my browser address bar the phpbb.nik still I get as result
[19:03] <webresourc> the default apache site. Any idea please ?
[19:03] <fuzzyghost> I have a couple of threads online, one is on the Ubuntu Forums:  Sound frustrations with games and flash
[19:04] <Neosano> how can I know if I should install 32 bit or 64 bit? I'm in ubuntu right now
[19:04] <fuzzyghost> Another is on the Linux Mint Forums:  OSS Support
[19:04] <fuzzyghost> And a third on the IOQuake3 forums, Install IOQuake3 in Linux
[19:04] <StaRetji> Folks, my ubuntu install on boot give messages that my driver has to checked as it wasn't checked for 20 reboots. And it does this on each boot? Help please :)
[19:04] <c0nv1ct> Neosano, do you have 4gb or more of ram?
[19:04] <StaRetji> hard drive*
[19:05] <c0nv1ct> Neosano, or plan on upgrading to 4gb or more?
[19:05] <CrazyK> Does anyone know where I can get the latest up to date copy of the sources.list file for 10.10? Update repositories
[19:05] <fuzzyghost> Okitain, you wouldn't know of a .DEB file for IOQuake3, would you?
[19:05] <Neosano> c0nv1ct, System monitor says I have 3.9 gb, dunno
[19:05] <Okitain> Neosano: if you have a dual-core, you can safely install 64-bit.
[19:05] <Okitain> fuzzyghost: haven't found it yet.
[19:05] <Neosano> Okitain, 4 cores here
[19:05] <fuzzyghost> Or a place to download an older, full-install run file?
[19:05] <Pici> webresourc: Do you need a virtualhost for this?  are you planning on running other sites on your same serveR?
[19:05] <c0nv1ct> Neosano, you don't know how much ram is installed in your system?
[19:06] <Neosano> c0nv1ct, I don't remember..
[19:06] <webresourc> pici: Yes
[19:06] <webresourc> I like to use it as Web Server for my projects
[19:06] <webresourc> also what do you sugest ?
[19:06] <webresourc> to run my application on default path ?
[19:07] <Pici> webresourc: I assume that you're trying to browse from the same machine that you're hosting from?
[19:07] <webresourc> Pici: yes
[19:07] <c0nv1ct> Neosano, might as well go with 64bit then
[19:08] <Neosano> c0nv1ct, oh, ok :O
[19:08] <Okitain> Neosano: you should install 64 bit if you want to address more than 4 gb of memory and have a boost in parallelised applications.

[19:08] <CodeMaster1> Hi, I am trying to use gparted live USB, I boot gparted then get stuck on the text welcome scree.
[19:08] <shashwat_> I remember that tere is some command in Grub 2 o automatically search for OSes and add tem to the menu. ne1 know ?
[19:08] <CrazyK> So I guess it's safe to assume that the sources.list file is current when I dl the ISO correct?
[19:08] <CodeMaster1> I have used the same USB to boot gparted (and install ubuntu) before

[19:16] <c0nv1ct> krunal, you may want to read the logs on both ends to get details on the problem
[19:16] <Okitain> azm, there is a thing called "jockey" in your system

[19:18] <c0nv1ct> krunal, syslog and samba log in linux, system and application log in windows
[19:18] <azm> Okitain, I just dont know if fglrx is needed before installation of ati drivers or if its the same already
[19:18] <azm> Okitain, Install the ATI/AMD proprietary fglrx graphics as described in the previous section, if it is not yet installed.
[19:18] <azm> this sentence
[19:18] <krunal> okay thanks..how do i check samba log?

[19:19] <fuzzyghost> Have a good one all.
[19:20] <Magralthea> Kheuuk!
[19:20] <Okitain> madjoe: do you have memtest86+ installed?
[19:20] <lockersnatch> madjoe: I thought memtest was only in grub2?
[19:20] <madjoe> Okitain: I do
[19:20] <madjoe> lockersnatch: could be
[19:20] <krunal> c0nv1ct, what doess this mean: [2010/11/19 12:33:51.178072,  0] smbd/server.c:500(smbd_open_one_socket)

[19:20] <lockersnatch> oh well
[19:20] <madjoe> lockersnatch Okitain: I'm on Ubuntu Karmic x64
[19:20] <Okitain> madjoe, is your distro up to date (Ubuntu 10.04 at least?)
[19:21] <Okitain> Upgrade maybe?
[19:21] <madjoe> I can't :(
[19:21] <c0nv1ct> krunal, it means it tried to listen on a port that was already being used
[19:21] <krunal> ah interesting
[19:21] <Magralthea> lockersnatch: Be funny instead. Many likes that.
[19:21] <krunal> c0nv1ct, the linux computer tried to listen to a port on the pc or the linux
[19:22] <c0nv1ct> krunal, it can only listen on it's own machine
[19:22] <krunal> c0nv1ct, okay... so what should I do?
[19:22] <Okitain> madjoe, why?
[19:22] <madjoe> Okitain: because of actual projects I'm running at the moment
[19:22] <c0nv1ct> krunal, keep looking, that is the log for the server, you are having client troubles
[19:22] <odofad> anybody ever installed a "option GT 3g quad" 3g datacard in lucid or maverick?
[19:23] <c0nv1ct> krunal, also, i assume with all your searching, you attempted to access the share via the CLI with similar results?
[19:23] <Magralthea> krunal: I have a frind in solitary prison. Do you know if i can send him a tape or something ?
[19:23] <krunal> c0nv1ct, yes..i tried CLI
[19:23] <Magralthea> Fail to answer and this freenode will not exist anymore (Sorry for that)
[19:24] <krger> Shit, that's all it takes?
[19:24] <lockersnatch> Magralthea: i dont follow...be funny instead?
[19:24] <madjoe> Okitain: is there any easy way of testing my RAM?
[19:24] <Magralthea> lockersnatch: I shall agree.
[19:25] <lockersnatch> Magralthea: ....?
[19:25] <Okitain> madjoe: well, there are some LiveCDs that boot memtest86
[19:25] <madjoe> hm.. ok
[19:25] <krunal> so when is ubuntu v 11 coming ?
[19:25] <lockersnatch> april
[19:25] <Pici> !natty | krunal
[19:25] <madjoe> Okitain: my synaptic shows I have memtestx86 installed
[19:25] <c0nv1ct> krunal, 2011 of course
[19:25] <Magralthea> lockersnatch: Ill spend the next week crushing things if i get unhappy. Now, be happy! :)
[19:25] <madjoe> Okitain: do you know what's the command in GRUB for memtest?
[19:26] <krunal> have any of you seen a test version yet?
[19:26] <lockersnatch> Magralthea: oh im happy as a pig in slop
[19:26] <Okitain> madjoe: checking it out.

[19:29] <Laban> Hi
[19:29] <lgarceau> imap-30_303_: it's true it's hard to type everything on one line heh?
[19:29] <Dr_Willis> SandCube:  if you want it to show windows and stuff under neeth. you need to use the compiz transparancy feature i think
[19:30] <madjoe> Okitain: maybe I can't see it because I'm on WuBi
[19:30] <imap-30_303_> where the hell are my hard drives mounted to so i can add them to wine?
[19:30] <Okitain> WuBi?

[19:30] <donut> hello
[19:30] <goltoof_> imap-30_303_:  mount
[19:30] <Laban> Why does my Grub break every time I run system upgrade? After a kernel update through ubuntu update center it broke... again.
[19:30] <Dr_Willis> SandCube:  actually using terminator here.. I do see the windows underneeth now :) how.. annoying.
[19:30] <Laban> I'm presented with the grub prompt.
[19:30] <imap-30_303_> where are they mounted to though?
[19:31] <Dr_Willis> SandCube:  to it may be you just need compiz enabled. if its not.
[19:31] <imap-30_303_> i try browsing them on wine and they are nowhere to be found
[19:31] <webresourc> I try to install the phpBB on my virtual host and require some folder to be writable. How can I change permission to folder to make it writable ?

[19:32] <madjoe> Okitain: what should I do with it?
[19:32] <Okitain> It is found in my /boot/grub/grub.cfg
[19:32] <Dr_Willis> huckfh:  you are meaning to say you now have windwos XP on HD2 - and Ubuntu 10.04 on HD #1 ?
[19:33] <Sean93> i need some help configuring fuppes
[19:33] <SandCube> Dr_Willis, gocha! Checking my 'appearance preferences' I see that visual effects are not enabled. Just tried to enable it but did not work on the virtual machine, I will try it later when I restart nativelly
[19:33] <huckfh> Dr_Willis: yes
[19:33] <imap-30_303_> when i click places, it shows all my drives. how do i know where they are mounted to?

[19:33] <odofad> anybody using a "option GT 3g quad" 3g datacard in lucid or maverick?
[19:34] <Okitain> madjoe: get rid of wubi ASAP!
[19:34] <madjoe> Okitain: as soon as I get the new machine.. this one is just for testing
[19:34] <c0nv1ct> imap-30_303_, open a terminal and type `mount` and you'll see
[19:34] <Dr_Willis> SandCube:  using Compiz on a VM. i dont think is doable..
[19:34] <madjoe> Okitain: http://codepad.org/jq3VCz8K
[19:34] <lockersnatch> ahh id give my left nut for a new machine
[19:35] <lockersnatch> (sry bout that, impulse reaction)
[19:35] <c0nv1ct> lockersnatch, you can have my i7 with 12gb ram
[19:35] <reggie_> hey folks
[19:35] <SandCube> Dr_Willis, I think I had it working on the vm, too.... I dunno why it's not allowing me to enable it
[19:35]  * lockersnatch breaks out the scalpel
[19:35] <jamesturk> anyone in here using an intel i5/i7 with the integrated graphics?
[19:35] <lockersnatch> whats your addy? :)
[19:36] <Okitain> madjoe, try putting my code somewhere there...
[19:36] <Dr_Willis> SandCube:  honestly. i cant imagine why you WANT to enable it.. :)
[19:36] <madjoe> Okitain: I don't know if it could break something so I would be unable to boot again
[19:37] <huckfh> Dr_Willis: would you like see my grub.cfg contents?
[19:37] <SandCube> Dr_Willis, too much free time lol
[19:37] <Okitain> Then backup the previous file and restore it from Windows if you need it.
[19:37] <Sean93> i need some help configuring fuppes on 10.10
[19:38] <madjoe> Okitain: how can I access my wubi linux through Windows?? windows detects my whole linux dedicated space as one huge file
[19:39] <Okitain> Aagrh!
[19:39] <Okitain> just make a live-USB
[19:39] <Okitain> For restoration of those.
[19:39] <Okitain> Or... I really dunno how does Windows do that.
[19:39] <madjoe> crap, there should be an easy way of doing this
[19:40] <huckfh> Dr_Willis: are u still there?^^
[19:40] <Dr_Willis> huckfh:  you dont edit grub.cfg by hand anyway.. the normal fix is to 'reinstall grub' and it should see/install to the grub.cfg
[19:40] <BluesKaj> madjoe, you access wubi install from the bootmenu that's installed when you installed ubuntu in wubi
[19:40] <Dr_Willis> huckfh:  im in and out all day.. got to watch the grandkids.. so i may leave at any time.
[19:41] <petan> huckfh: hm
[19:41] <madjoe> BluesKaj Okitain: I think I'll manually enter linux16	/boot/memtest86+.bin  in GRUB
[19:41] <StealthB> I need a bit of help, will this USB CD/DVD drive work with Ubuntu
[19:41] <StealthB> http://www.ebuyer.com/product/185891
[19:41] <huckfh> Dr_Willis: ok i try to reinstall it thanks.
[19:41] <lockersnatch> !HCL
[19:41] <lockersnatch> !HCL | StealthB
[19:42] <BluesKaj> madjoe, grub should be installed if ubunru is installed , maybe hold down the shift key to get grub when booting
[19:42] <StealthB> lockersnatch, that does not help me a great deal after looking
[19:43] <StealthB> do USB CD/DVD drives generally work out the box with ubuntu or not, is a better question.
[19:43] <madjoe> BluesKaj: I did, but nothing happened... there are two menus during booting of my Ubunt... first one to select OS, and second to select Ubuntu kernel - should I hold down the shift key on the second boot menu?
[19:44] <Okitain> StealthB: it seems it will
[19:44] <StealthB> Okitain, thats good then
[19:44] <StealthB> Just want something for my laptop and wondered if it would work or not, cheers man
[19:44] <bandoz> re
[19:45] <BluesKaj> madjoe, well if you can see grub then select the ubuntu kernel
[19:45] <littlejoey_z> hehe this seems faster than the forums :)
[19:45] <madjoe> I'm doing it this way, BluesKaj: I wait for the menu to select Ubuntu kernel, and then press the ESC key, then I can see GRUB
[19:46] <cb1> any software for controlling robosapien on ubuntu ?
[19:46] <huckfh> Dr_Willis: i reinstalled grub-pc but still doesn't find Win Xp on the grub.cfg list
[19:46] <littlejoey_z> hmm what is robosapien cb1? is it a robot of some kind?
[19:46] <Dr_Willis> littlejoey_z:  a toy robot.
[19:47] <littlejoey_z> ok interesting
[19:47] <Dr_Willis> huckfh:  Theres some grub touble shooting guides that may help. Or You could add a custome entry in /etc/grub.d/40_custom for it.
[19:47] <BluesKaj> magj fine whatever works
[19:47] <Ibyss> Can someone help me with getting a theme installed? I can't seem to make my theme to appear exactly like this picture here: http://linuxmint-art.org/content/preview.php?preview=2&id=134416&file1=134416-1.jpg&file2=134416-2.jpg&file3=134416-3.jpg&name=Cadmium+OSX
[19:48] <Ibyss> What I've done so far is got the gtk theme engine for murrine, equinox. I installed the emerald theme manager. I got the emerald theme loaded (it's showing and working apparently), but I just can't seem to make the location bar look exactly as seen in the picture (Each directory/folderpath is like separated, a gap in between giving it the ugly look).
[19:48] <trism> ron__: late response, but just got the error, the solution is here: http://www.ubuntugeek.com/how-to-fix-ssl-certificate-problem-in-pidgin-and-msn.html (I prefer option 2)
[19:48] <cb1> littlejoey_z : yeah.. a toy robot from wowwee
[19:48] <Dr_Willis> Ibyss:  looks like its using the  nautilus-elementry variant. and the breadcrumbs feature of it.
[19:48] <huckfh> Dr_Willist: can you please tell me the correctly line to add Win Xp for my case? Win XP is installed on the sdb1
[19:49] <mygeblo> guys, i have this weird problem with an HP printer. Ubuntu has already autodefined it and everything was OK. The moment I tried to print a long edged document, the printer just printed the odd-number pages and left me hanging without showing the "continue to print" message. I've tried removing it, restarting cups, but nothing worked. any ideas?
[19:50] <Dr_Willis> huckfh:  i dont have a single pc with XP on it..   Heres my grub.cfg tjhat has some entryes for Vista however...  should proberly be the same. http://pastebin.com/b8tcY0L0
[19:50] <cb1> Ibyss: thats some theme!!
[19:50] <littlejoey_z> huckfh, I've never had problems with grub, usually windows shows up "by itself" in grub. I did install ubuntu on top of windows though. wait I'll try to find you a link
[19:51] <huckfh> thank you all guys
[19:52] <huckfh> Dr_Willis: the thing is this os-prober doesn't find WIn XP automatically
[19:53] <Dr_Willis> huckfh:  i would suggst checking the forums.  Theres proberly some example entries for it. or some fix's to make it scan better.
[19:54] <anan> #programming
[19:54] <malkoun> huckfh: there is probably a way to do that manually too, by editing some conf file, there was a link in wiki for grub, now I can't seem to find it

[20:02] <scriptwarlock> Dr_Willis, in bios theres no usb boot options
[20:03] <Dr_Willis> scriptwarlock:  unetbootin, lili, pendrivelinux web site has others..  usb creator tool on the ubuntu iso/cd, and proberly more i cant rember
[20:03] <meonkeys> I installed and started mysql in a schroot, but mysql overwrote /var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock outside the chroot! Anyone know why/how?
[20:03] <Dr_Willis> scriptwarlock:   the laptop came with no usb? or could be its enabled by default, or on some Fkey as it boots.. how old is this thing?
[20:03] <scriptwarlock> Dr_Willis, i have no problem on usbs on ubuntu only on this laptop that i cant boot on usb port.. there is a usb port of course
[20:04] <Dr_Willis> scriptwarlock:  I have some pc's where i hit a F key that kicks it into a 'select boot devuce mode' that shows my usb devices.
[20:04] <Mysteries> Have you considered wubi, script war lock
[20:04] <santagada> anyone knows why my keyboard (102 keys) (us_intl) does a ć instead of ç?

[20:05] <Dr_Willis> scriptwarlock:  i dont mean in the bios.. i mean as it boots.. I hit F11 on my laptop and it then pulls up a menu. Ive never even looked to see if it has a usb entry in the bios.

[20:05] <rohan7> I've already got java installed, java 6 update 18, but I want it to update to jave 6 update 22
[20:06] <Dr_Willis> rohan7:  find a ppa. would be the best way I think.
[20:06] <imap-30_303> how do i access another drive from terminal?
[20:06] <rohan7> Dr_Willis: ok i'll try
[20:06] <Dr_Willis> imap-30_303:  mount the filesystem, cd /media/filesystemmountpoint_or-whever-its-at
[20:06] <Mysteries> What do you mean by another drive, I map
[20:07] <imap-30_303> i'm trying to access my main ssd
[20:07] <Dr_Willis> !mount | imap-30_303
[20:08] <imap-30_303> it's already mounted
[20:08] <Dr_Willis> imap-30_303:  then.. cd to the mountpoint..
[20:08] <Dr_Willis> !cli
[20:08] <imap-30_303> i dunno where the mountpoint is
[20:08] <bastidrazor> imap-30_303: type mount and it will list all drives mounted
[20:08] <Dr_Willis> imap-30_303:  'mount' command shows them . if they are mounted via fstab/hand...
[20:08] <Mysteries> Willis you sure do l ove those triggers
[20:09] <santagada> really hate this awful keyboard bug
[20:09] <Dr_Willis> Mysteries:  no one ever seems to bother to read the urls :)
[20:09] <imap-30_303> thanks for the help
[20:09] <Kyle__> Is checkinstall still a good way to go for compiling local packages?  It's been a long LONG time since I've needed to.
[20:10] <bastidrazor> Kyle__: yes, it is the preferred method actually
[20:10] <Kyle__> bastidrazor: Cool.  Thanks.
[20:11] <rohan7> Dr_Willis: I found this one - https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/lucid/+source/sun-java6/6.22-0ubuntu1~10.04  but I didn't find a ppa for it, it says to download manually, aren't that files source files?
[20:11] <Kyle__> bastidrazor: FOr some silly reason the default thttpd package doesn't use $HOME/public_html for ~ redirection.
[20:11]  * Kyle__ kindof missed building his own stuff anyway.
[20:11] <Dr_Willis> rohan7:  no idea. I dont think so. I rarly use java other then to isntall it from the repos and thats it.
[20:12] <amr> i have a ubuntu install and im getting this error when trying to boot: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/52148/IMG00027-20101119-1928.jpg
[20:12] <amr> any ideas?
[20:12] <bastidrazor> Kyle__: #httpd is a great place for apache issues
[20:12] <amr> additionally, im trying to install ubuntu netbook remix 10.10 to fix this, but it's just hanging on the 'preparing' stage
[20:12] <Kyle__> bastidrazor: apache is heavier than I want, recompiling thttpd for ~ pages is easy enough,.
[20:12] <imap-30_303> just ran a benchmark on my ssd, 257 MB/s :D
[20:12] <amr> i saw this might be because of the dodgy partitions, so i've been trying to delete them from the livecd and it says 'in use' - but they're not mounted
[20:12] <bastidrazor> Kyle__: even so, #httpd can help.
[20:12] <rohan7> Dr_Willis: do u have any idea how to make head phones work on ubuntu
[20:13] <Dr_Willis> rohan7:  i plug mine in.. and they work..
[20:13] <Kyle__> bastidrazor: K.  I'll peek in there.  Thanks
[20:13] <Dr_Willis> rohan7:  I see several people a week with either the Phones not working.. or they work  and dont turn off the speakers atomatically..  Theres proberly 100+ threads on it on the forums.
[20:13] <Dr_Willis> rohan7:  im not sure what the generic fix is.. perhaps use 'jackd' but ive never had tod o that
[20:14] <rohan7> Dr_Willis: lol, mine doesn't work that, I've even downloaded the Intel motherboard sound drivers for ubuntu, but those are for 32 bits, I'm on 64bit
[20:14] <scriptwarlock> Dr_Willis, this is an old laptop and has no usb boot options and no f11 boot menu. anymore idea?
[20:15] <rohan7> Dr_Willis: jackd is a software r u talking?

[20:38] <mayahustle_> so, I just bought a thinkpad t410s, and everytime I plug it into a monitor, the display has these wavy lines moving through it. It looks like a refresh rate issue, but the "monitor" gui in the preferences tab wont' let me set the refresh rate. any ideas?
[20:39] <helo> sounds like interference
[20:39] <kirllos> hi
[20:39] <mayahustle_> interference?
[20:39] <lyndon> @mayahustle_ are you using extended desktop?
[20:39] <Sean93> i need some help configuring fuppes on 10.10
[20:39] <kirllos> somebopdy know how to install backtrack tool in ubuntu?
[20:39] <helo> dunno, i've had problems like that from interference, but it could definitely be something else
[20:39] <mayahustle_> yes, I am using extended desktop
[20:39] <mayahustle_> I need this laptop for presentations, and I've noticed this issue on two different projectors and a monitor
[20:39] <kirllos> somebopdy know how to install backtrack tool in ubuntu?
[20:40] <kirllos> Francais? =)
[20:40] <lyndon> try it without extended desktop (ie. just the external monitor)
[20:40] <kirllos> somebopdy know how to install backtrack tool in ubuntu?
[20:40] <Lars_G> Is there a virtual/meta/task package that provides the barest minimal Xorg environment possible? not even xubuntu (xfce) but barebones xorg
[20:40] <mayahustle_> alright, I'll give it a try
[20:41] <yeats> !repeat
[20:41] <lyndon> @Lars_G server edition?
[20:41] <lyndon> then install xorg
[20:42] <mayahustle_> :lyndon still having the problem, whether its extended or mirrored
[20:42] <Lars_G> lyndon: that's the package name? xorg? or do I need to resolve xorg pieces beyoudn that?
[20:43] <Lars_G> lyndon: Ok it's a metapackage, thank you very much
[20:43] <phh> noone for oem ?
[20:43]  * hashashin nas
[20:44] <lyndon> i had an issue a while back with 10.04 that wouldn't allow me to use extended desktop but worked perfectly fine as just the external monitor.
[20:45] <lyndon> i can't remember what fixed the issue. i think it was just an update.
[20:45] <lyndon> all the same, i'd log a bug report on launchpad to see if someone can come up with a solution for you.
[20:45] <lyndon> @Lars_G:   no problem.
[20:45] <hristo> Hristo
[20:45] <mayahustle_> okay, do you think perhaps it could be a driver issue? I noticed that its running the i915 driver, could this chip perhaps not have a compatible driver yet?
[20:46] <mayahustle_> I'm not sure how to check the chipset, I can only see what driver ubuntu thinks it should be using
[20:46] <hristo> I don 't speak english
[20:46] <trism> phh: it is still there, highlight "Install Ubuntu", hit F4, select OEM install

[20:59] <lyndon> shane4ubuntu:   only if there are people there who know what they are doing. otherwise it's just question after question.
[20:59] <Ganymede> When I enable time synchronization in System -> Admin -> Time and Date on Ubuntu Desktop, where does that get reflected in text-based config files? I have a bunch of machines, some Ubuntu Server, some Desktop, and they are getting time synch issues so I need to know on which machines to add ntpdate into /etc/cron.daily and which ones are already good to go.
[20:59] <Seveas> Ganymede, don't do that. Just install ntpd and it keeps time in sync constantly.
[20:59] <lyndon> Ganymede: personally, i would do them all
[21:00] <lyndon> Ganymede: or do what Seveas said :p
[21:00] <Ganymede> Seveas, Oh, I thought ntpd was actually the NTP server daemon software...let me take a look.
[21:00] <Sean93> i installed all these dependincies for a program i have now removed, "sudo apt-get install build-essential subversion autoconf automake gettext libtool libpcre3-dev libxml2-dev libsqlite3-dev libfaad-dev libmad0-dev libflac-dev libmagickwand-dev libvorbis-dev libtwolame-dev libmpcdec-dev uuid-dev libavformat-dev libavutil-dev libavcodec-dev libmpeg4ip-dev libmp4v2-dev libtag1-dev libexpat1-dev" how do i know what ones i don'
[21:00] <Sean93> t need anymore and can remove?
[21:01] <Seveas> Ganymede, ntpd is a daemon you run on your local system to keep time in sync with others. It can *also* be used by others to get the current time. It's sort of peer-to-peer
[21:01] <StaRetji> folks, is there a know issue between opengl applications and jpeg pictures? I mean, I'm having problem where opengl application (XBMC) will not properly load jpg pictures. It will load half of the picture, or scrambled image. Any ideas?
[21:01] <hamilton_> hi
[21:01] <mgmuscari> is there some way that i can disable wifi-a mode under ubuntu?
[21:02] <dajhorn> Sean93: `apta-get autoremove --purge` will cleanup unused dependencies.
[21:02] <dajhorn> Sean93: Typo:  apt-get
[21:02] <Sean93> dajhorn, thanks
[21:03] <Ganymede> Seveas, Thanks, we usually try to minimize the number of daemons here...I guess ntpd won't be a big deal though.
[21:03] <Sean93> dajhorn, i installed the program from source not apt-get, will this still work?
[21:03] <Seveas> Ganymede, if you want your time in sync, you can't get out of ntpd :)
[21:04] <dajhorn> Sean93: Welcome.  Any package name that you gave at the command line will be marked "manual" and not removed.  Installs from source to /usr/local (or elsewhere) are not recognized by apt.
[21:04] <sapiens__> hi
[21:04] <dajhorn> Sean93: If you did an `apt-get source --build`, then those packages are removed normally..
[21:05] <Sean93> dajhorn, the program that i have now removed was installed from source but all the dependincies were installed by apt-get
[21:05] <Sean93> dajhorn, i used compile to install the original program
[21:05] <dajhorn> Sean93:  If you installed those by naming each one of them at the command line, then they are "manual" packages, and you must individually remove each.
[21:06] <Sean93> dajhorn, how do i know if i need them for other programs?
[21:06] <dajhorn> Sean93: `apt-get remove` will tell you what is removed.  If you see something that you need, then say "n" to the "are you sure?" question.
[21:07] <sapiens__> any solution for atheros wifi cards on Ubuntu?
[21:07] <Sean93> dajhorn, the problem is i have no idea what i need lol
[21:07] <dajhorn> Sean93: Watch for the ubuntu-desktop package in the removal list.  This package is the one that you want to keep.
[21:07] <lolzer>  hi i just installed emu8051 from the software center... it shows its installed but i cant find it in the application list
[21:07] <lolzer> can any1 help me???
[21:07] <Ganymede> Seveas, I've just installed the ntp package and I see ntpd running...but the clock is still 40 seconds off according to ntpdate -q pool.ntp.org. Will I have to wait for a day or something before it learns my clock drift and synchronizes accordingly?
[21:07] <dajhorn> Sean93: If you don't remove the ubuntu-desktop, then you'll have a working system.

[21:08] <Silicone> hi to all once again ;)
[21:08] <Silicone> have a little problem
[21:08] <Seveas> Ganymede, ntpd will adjust things slowly. Do a one-off ntpdate for an initial sync (you need to kill ntpd to run ntpdate)
[21:08] <Silicone> installed ubuntu at home...
[21:08] <matrix> @Silicone Hi
[21:08] <Ganymede> Seveas, Okay, thanks again.
[21:08] <Silicone> installed all okay, but when reboots, it doesnt ask me what to boot...
[21:08] <Seveas> the reason ntpd adjusts slowly is that many applications misbehave if you change time drastically
[21:08] <Silicone> i did the same at work and was good
[21:09] <Silicone> at home doesnt
[21:09] <Seveas> so something running in the background should not do that :)
[21:09] <Silicone> reinstalled grub
[21:09] <Silicone> no help at all (
[21:10] <dajhorn> Silicone: Hold the right <shift> key at power on to get the boot menu.  If you only have one operating system installed, then the latest boot loader won't show you the menu.
[21:11] <Silicone> i had installed 2 OSs before installing Ubuntu... win 7 and win xp.. i formated the partition with win xp... but i think in ntldr file on win 7 remains that i have to systems.. maybe that is the problem?
[21:11] <Sean93> how do i see a programs dependincies

[21:13] <dajhorn> Silicone: Did you say "no" when the Ubuntu installer asked "install grub?"
[21:14] <lockersnatch> Silicone: does it let you boot to ubuntu?
[21:14] <Sean93> are any of those important?
[21:14] <Silicone> dajhorn, it doesn't asked... also i'm from live ubuntu now, and someone suggested me to reinstal grub... no help from this...
[21:15] <cysioland> I have a problem. Electronic CAD Yenka cannot play sound for ex. buzzers or speakers. I don't see Yenka in sound apps list. On Windows or Wine that worked. What I must do???

[21:15] <lockersnatch> ahh i could go for some gin about now
[21:15] <ginbuntu> is it possible to use a light window manager and still have hibernate/suspend working?
[21:15] <sin__tax> I am putting the finishing touches on my triple boot and have a small fix needed for the ubuntu part... When I boot into Ubuntu from Chameleon, I get a GRUB menu with OSX/Windows/Ubuntu... How can I bypass that so booting goes straight to ubuntu?
[21:15] <Silicone> lockersnatch, i can't boot to ubuntu...also when instaled ubuntu, specified i to create a partiotion for itself from largest disk...
[21:16] <Silicone> still i don't see any new partitions..
[21:16] <lockersnatch> Silicone: are you sure you created the partition for linux?
[21:16] <dajhorn> Silicone:  Grub is the boot program that shows you the menu and starts Ubuntu.  You need grub, even if you want to start Microsoft Windows.
[21:16] <lockersnatch> Silicone: when you boot to windows, and go to disk management, how many partitions do you see
[21:16] <swordz> Can anyone help with my wireless and 10.10 issue?
[21:16] <swordz> It takes me 20/30 attempts to connect
[21:17] <lockersnatch> swordz: you are lucky you got it to connect at all as far as im concerned..i couldnt, and i ended up switching back to 10.04 LTS
[21:17] <Silicone> dajhorn, Grub is installed, also i tried to reinstall it, when reinstalled it shows me 2 OSs...  but when  restart and boot... doesn't show me the menu to choose the OS
[21:17] <swordz> I'm seriously considering that
[21:17] <lockersnatch> swordz: several other people have had similar probs w/ 10.10
[21:17] <major_redhat> swordz: ive seen that issue personally
[21:18] <dajhorn> Silicone: You get that menu by holding the right <shift> button at boot time.  Did you try that?
[21:18] <dajhorn> Silicone: This doesn't work when you're starting from the Ubuntu Live disc.
[21:18] <lockersnatch> major_redhat: have we had this convo before?  either we have or im having deja vu
[21:18] <sin__tax> I've had no trouble with wireless on 10.10... on 3 different laptops..  lucky I guess.
[21:18] <major_redhat> lockersnatch: no idea
[21:18] <Silicone> lockersnatch, seems that  it created a partition that names simply file system...
[21:18] <cysioland> Can somebody help me?
[21:19] <Silicone> dajhorn, nope, i didn't ry.. let me try now
[21:19] <major_redhat> i usually stick with the LTS whenever I install ubuntu
[21:19] <Silicone> will be back in a minure
[21:19] <Silicone> minute
[21:19] <lockersnatch> yea i think thats good protocol
[21:19] <lockersnatch> at least if you are using it for production

[21:30] <Silicone> Can anybody help me with Grub to boot Ubuntu ithat is installed fresh?
[21:30] <diemos> I have a server box in which I have a SCSI adapter with a SCSI HDD connected to. I downloaded Ubuntu server and the installation went fine. Recognized the HDD, wrote the partition tables, and finished the installation no problem. However, when I try to boot to the newly installed OS, I get this error: [ 0.734603] Kernel panic - not syncing: VFS: Unable to mount root fs on unknown-block(0,0)
[21:30] <kiwi_> i wish to upgrade a particular package from my 10.04 install to the 10.10 version. how?
[21:30] <lolzer> i need to convert them to hex in this case
[21:30] <Flannel> lolzer: Doesn't your compiler do that for you already?
[21:31] <doriangrey> yes it show me 2 different of drivers, the one i am using is the recommended one
[21:31] <shane4ubuntu> doriangrey, does that show any drivers enabled?  (green) if not, pick the recommended one and enable it.
[21:31] <doriangrey> yes it was enabled alredy
[21:31] <Flannel> lolzer: sdcc, for instance, outputs a hex file in the intel format so you can download it straight into your uC

[21:37] <katzee> not really, not lately. i installed a theme and changed some compyz confs
[21:37] <Ibis> Might be missing the "notification" icon on the panel.
[21:37] <Silicone> Ibis, i had 2 OS's previously.. i deleted win xp.. remains only win 7.. then i installed ubuntu.. rebooting and now it also apears to select between win 7 and XP
[21:38] <katzee> i see the notification icon, but if i click it, it just says "Wired Networks -> disconnected"
[21:38] <Chzz> helo           "I am an MCSE, but it has been 100 days since I last ran Windows"
[21:38] <katzee> it used to show me eth0 and my adsl conenction
[21:38] <shane4ubuntu> doriangrey, ok, go to System -> Preferences -> Appearance Preferences
[21:38] <shane4ubuntu> doriangrey, in the Visual effects tab are any of those options checked?
[21:38] <OY1R> what is typical impedance on a about 100ft random wire antenna ?
[21:38] <Ibis> katzee: You're using wifi then, right?
[21:39] <katzee> no, im on another pc now
[21:39] <katzee> wireless is working thou
[21:39] <Silicone> Ibis, any suggestions?
[21:39] <Ibis> If not, then all  I can really say is to check the wiring (I have some dumb ethernet cords that keeps sliding out the sockets. :()
[21:39] <doriangrey> shane4ubuntu yes the extra one
[21:40] <katzee> ibis: i plugged and re-plugged it into the network card socket and router's
[21:40] <shane4ubuntu> doriangrey, ok, set that to none, just to test things, then run a video and see if that is the problem
[21:40] <jk_> katzee, For quite some time now, I've had to manually start networking any time I reboot, although no errors show up in the logs. You might try "sudo service networking start" to see if that helps. Be prepared for a rather long wait for anything to happen (around a minute for me).
[21:40] <milo_b> Hello, there is a command "stdbuf" available in Coreutils version 7.5.   In 10.04 when I "apt-get install", all I see is Coreutils.   How do I check which version of coreutils is installed, and how can I get to 7.5 of greater?
[21:41] <katzee> jk_: it just says "networking stop/waiting"
[21:41] <guntbert> milo_b: apt-cahe policy coreutils
[21:42] <Ibis> katzee: Any reaction? You can also right click the "network manager thing", then select "eth0", and set that to automatic connect".
[21:42] <OY1R> hah wrong chan sry.
[21:42] <Chzz> new user, downloaded image, trying to put on pen, "data error in 'casper\filesystem.squashfs'. File is broken"
[21:42] <Ibis> o_O @ OY1R
[21:42] <katzee> Ibis: problem is i dont see "eth0" in that panel anymore... i just see it if i go on the networking administration panel
[21:42] <katzee> Ibis: and its already "auto connect"
[21:42] <katzee> Ibis: i know its strange, cant understand why
[21:42] <shane4ubuntu> katzee, personally I use wicd, don't much care for network manager
[21:43] <OY1R> Ibis, look up and you will see..
[21:43] <OY1R> heh
[21:43] <jk_> katzee, That's the response that I get, but afterward the networking works.
[21:43] <xslashxr> how do you pipe an output of shell command out to a variable within a bash script?
[21:43] <doriangrey> shane4ubuntu  same
[21:43] <katzee> jk_: well nothing happened yet :(
[21:43] <shane4ubuntu> katzee, wicd gives you good and easy control over network stuff
[21:43] <jk_> katzee, probably a different problem then.
[21:44] <doriangrey> shane4ubuntu audio is ok but i see only black video
[21:44] <milo_b> guntbert:  Thanks.  I can see that I have 7.4-2ubuntu3.   Do you know how I can get a later version?
[21:44] <Silicone> i had 2 OS's previously.. i deleted win xp.. remains only win 7.. then i installed ubuntu.. rebooting and now it also apears to select between win 7 and XP
[21:44] <Ibis> You can delete the connection. Then re-add in "Auto eth0".   IPv4 settings should be set to "auto dhcp".
[21:44] <Ibis> Unless you're doing som fancy networking.
[21:44] <shane4ubuntu> doriangrey, hmm, that is odd, is it like that for all videos or just one in particular that you are trying to view?
[21:44] <flying_penguin> I'm having a problem loading and saving configuration info for some of my gtk applications (firefox, gnome-alsamixer) and having problems with applications connecting to dbus. It seems like a permissions problem but all the configs are set up properly as far as I can tell. anyone know what to do about this
[21:44] <doriangrey> shane4ubuntu for all video
[21:45] <guntbert> milo_b: what release of ubuntu?
[21:45] <shane4ubuntu> doriangrey, what type of video?  wmv mpg  avi??
[21:45] <doriangrey> shane4ubuntu  avi
[21:45] <Silicone> i had 2 OS's previously.. i deleted win xp.. remains only win 7.. then i installed ubuntu.. rebooting and now it also apears to select between win 7 and XP
[21:45] <Silicone> i had 2 OS's previously.. i deleted win xp.. remains only win 7.. then i installed ubuntu.. rebooting and now it also apears to select between win 7 and XP
[21:45] <Starscream> sh cannot share internet on ubuntu 9.04 - after all procedure the internet stops working at all. Onlu uninstalling dnsmasq ipmasq helps gen it back
[21:45] <milo_b> guntbert: I have 10.04
[21:45] <Silicone> ups
[21:45] <FloodBot2> Silicone: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[21:45]  * dreamtraveler bye
[21:46] <doriangrey> shane4ubuntu  mpg too
[21:46] <shane4ubuntu> doriangrey, hmm, I'm not sure, that really seems like a compiz error, before compiz would block video, but that was a while ago
[21:46] <sirdustin> hi
[21:46] <shane4ubuntu> doriangrey, what player are you using?
[21:46] <shane4ubuntu> !hello | sirdustin
[21:46] <shane4ubuntu> !hi | sirdustin
[21:46] <sirdustin> hi:)
[21:46] <guntbert> milo_b: on 10.10 I have 8.5, maybe there is one on a ppa for you (or backports?)
[21:47] <doriangrey> shane4ubuntu  banshee media player , vlc
[21:47] <Silicone> shane4ubuntu, maybe you know what to do?
[21:47] <dajhorn> Silicone: You probably have the Windows boot loader installed.   The advice that you were given earlier is likely correct:  Install Grub Manually.
[21:47] <shane4ubuntu> Silicone, are you using an odd ball boot loader?
[21:47] <Silicone> dajhorn, i reinstalled.. and nothing changed
[21:47] <Ibis> Silicone: What does your partitions look like, and how many harddrives are you using?
[21:47] <doriangrey> shane4ubuntu what is compiz error?
[21:48] <dajhorn> Silicone: Did you run `update-grub` according to the instructions?
[21:48] <shane4ubuntu> doriangrey, compiz is the 'special effects' thing
[21:48] <dajhorn> Silicone: You're probably at the point where you'll need to pastebin a cellphone photo of the boot menu that you're getting.
[21:48] <quentusrex> I found an Xorg segfault that I can easily reproduce.
[21:48] <Silicone> Ibis, have 2 phisical drives, and 4 virtual
[21:48] <shane4ubuntu> doriangrey, in a terminal try this:  vlc nameofvideo.avi
[21:49] <quentusrex> wait
[21:49] <shane4ubuntu> doriangrey, you will have to be in the right directory
[21:49] <quentusrex> doriangrey, is gnome crashing when you start vlc?
[21:49] <shane4ubuntu> doriangrey, then we will need the output of what happen to show us the errors.
[21:49] <quentusrex> that is the same bug I have. It is an X.org seg fault
 what that mean odd ball boot loader>
[21:49] <Silicone> it was a bootloader from win 7...
[21:49] <shane4ubuntu> Silicone, if it isn't grub it is odd. :)
[21:50] <quentusrex> When starting a video with VLC player X.org will seg fault. Here is the backtrace: http://paste.ubuntu.com/534393/
[21:50] <katzee> sorry, crashed
[21:50] <sirdustin> lol
[21:50] <shane4ubuntu> Silicone, sorry, this is an Ubuntu channel, if you want to use that bootloader, you are probably going to need windows people help.
[21:50] <Ibis> It's all good, WB.
 seems to be so, since it let me choose only between win 7 and win xp...
[21:50] <Silicone> can i somehow disable it?
[21:50] <katzee> i was saying, wicd is not installed and even if my wireless is working i cant install it cause of the strange way my wireless works... i should be able to connect to a pppoe connection to make it work
[21:50] <Silicone> maybe than grub will work?
[21:50] <shane4ubuntu> Silicone, windows isn't very "Linux" friendly
[21:51] <shane4ubuntu> Silicone, you need to install grub, as it will load windows
[21:51] <enth> Adding Option "Rotate" "CCW" makes startx break with "AddScreen/Screeninit failed for driver 0" Removing it makes everything work, but it all appears sideways ofc. Does anyone have an idea how to fix this?
 i don't want that bootloader...  also grub is installed, and i tried to reinstall it.. doesn't help
[21:51] <doriangrey> shane4ubuntu the video i have on the desktop, how to change directory to desktop?
[21:52] <shane4ubuntu> doriangrey, cd Desktop
[21:52] <shane4ubuntu> doriangrey, then:  vlc video.mpg
[21:52] <shane4ubuntu> doriangrey, or whatever was the name of the video
[21:52] <doriangrey> shame4ubuntu  no such directory i get
[21:52] <shane4ubuntu> Silicone, grub should have been installed automatically on install
[21:52] <shane4ubuntu> doriangrey, is your computer in English?
[21:53] <doriangrey> shane4ubuntu  yes
 it was, but when pc boots, shows me bootloader from windows
[21:53] <shane4ubuntu> doriangrey, ok, cd ~/Desktop
[21:53] <Ibis>  katzee: Wow, so you're using a different network manager than from the one I'm using.
[21:53] <shane4ubuntu> Silicone, that is odd, probably need to re-install?  how many hdd are you working with?  did you install on the primary hdd?
[21:53] <katzee> Ibis: i was using ubuntu's default
[21:54] <katzee> Ibis: is my router working in a strange way, i have to enable a pppoe connection on windows too
[21:54] <john38> I just installed windows 7 dual boot with Ubuntu on Host computer but now other computer wont pick up internet signal??
 i have 2 phisical HDD.. on 1 of them is win 7... second is partitioned to 3 parts... one of them is for ubuntu
[21:54] <doriangrey> shane4ubutu ok i did
[21:54] <TheSarge> It seems alt 2 switches tabs in the terminal as well as windows in irssi? Is there a way to fix this conflict?
[21:55] <shane4ubuntu> Silicone, that is your problem, grub was not installed on the primary boot hdd
[21:55] <Ibis> So you're a dsl user then if you're talking about pppoe.
[21:55] <Ibis> Hmm, weird,.
[21:55] <shane4ubuntu> doriangrey, can you put the output of the terminal in a pastebin  !pastebin
[21:55] <banker247> what is the command to find all *.sh files from a directory and its subs?
[21:55] <shane4ubuntu> doriangrey, paste.ubuntu.com
 if i will change in bios to but from another, it should work?
[21:55] <john38> help?
[21:56] <TheSarge> Also how can I change the resolution in the tty's?
[21:56] <shane4ubuntu> Silicone, perhaps, if ubuntu installed the bootloader on the disk it was installed on, then probably you would have to boot off that hdd
[21:56] <john38> I just installed windows 7 dual boot with Ubuntu on Host computer but now other computer wont pick up internet signal??
[21:56] <jrib> banker247: find -name '*.sh'
[21:56] <Ibis> katzee: Before the problem occurred, you always had to set pppoe up on windows and linux too?
[21:56] <lockersnatch> john38: define 'other computer'
 ok, i will try, and will get back with results, thanks for suggestion
[21:57] <banker247> jrib, thank you
[21:57] <katzee> Ibis: yep
[21:57] <doriangrey> shane4ubutu http://paste.ubuntu.com/534396/
[21:57] <shane4ubuntu> Silicone, no problem, I'm not 100% sure that is the issue, but it really seems like that is the problem
[21:57] <Ibis> And when you plug and unplug the cable,, does linux respond to that?
[21:57] <katzee> Ibis: if i just use the straight eth connection, it wont go on the internet properly, like failing on the dns, interrupting traffic
[21:57] <katzee> Ibis: it just doesnt
[21:57] <shane4ubuntu> doriangrey, type the first 4 letters of my nick and hit tab, it should complete it for you.
[21:57] <lockersnatch> shane4ubuntu: i thought HDD to boot from had to be set to master...or am i just high
[21:57] <john38> lockersnatch i have two computers sharing internet connection this computer has windows 7 and ubuntu other computer only has ubuntu but internet signal wont connect?
[21:58] <doriangrey> shane4ubuntu, :) ok
[21:58] <shane4ubuntu> lockersnatch, I *think* that is old school
[21:58] <shane4ubuntu> lockersnatch, with the new sata stuff, switches are out.
[21:58] <doriangrey> shane4ubuntu,  u got the log?
[21:58] <lockersnatch> shane4ubuntu: pre SATA you mean?
[21:59] <lockersnatch> shane4ubuntu: rephrase; do you mean pre sata?
[21:59] <john38> lockersnatch, i have two computers sharing internet connection this computer has windows 7 and ubuntu other computer only has ubuntu but internet signal wont connect?
[21:59] <lockersnatch> john38: so the computer that is having the trouble is the one that is only running ubuntu?
[21:59] <shane4ubuntu> lockersnatch, yes, before sata drives, there were the master/slave switches on the drives
[21:59] <Stereocaulon> Running Maverick, running into a weird error. Under Locations => Personal Folder tries to open all files contained in /home/$USER in Totem :-P Does anyone know where the Tab "Locations" is defined, so that I may restore it into it's old glory?
[21:59] <shane4ubuntu> doriangrey, yes, but is that all there was?
[22:00] <doriangrey> shane4ubuntu,  yes
[22:00] <shane4ubuntu> doriangrey, can we try this:  totem video.mpg
[22:00] <john38> lockersnatch, yeah
[22:00] <shane4ubuntu> doriangrey, you can also use the tab to complete the video name in such a case.
[22:00] <jrib> Stereocaulon: go to nautilus, right click on a directory, you should be able to make them open up in nautilus there
[22:00] <sin__tax> Aw... No two-finger scrolling on this laptop... Is synaptics the only pad that Ubuntu supports this on?
[22:01] <lockersnatch> john38: how are you trying to connect to the internet w/ the problematic computer
[22:01] <shane4ubuntu> doriangrey, there wasn't much info there to work from
[22:01] <sin__tax> This laptop has an ALPS touchpad and two fingered scrolling is greyed out
[22:01] <john38> lockersnatch, with adapter
[22:01] <john38> lockersnatch, using router on this one
[22:01] <Ibis> katzee: I believe the problem is with wiring, I already said it before, did you check the wire going to the dsl box?                       Linux must always respond to the wire before it can even be a linux problem
[22:01] <katzee> Ibis: i did check it and also tried to plug this one im using on this pc
[22:01] <lockersnatch> shane4ubuntu: sorry i didnt see you had already mentioned pre sata
[22:01] <katzee> Ibis: nothing happens
[22:02] <doriangrey> shane4ubuntu,  with totem there is not info at all
[22:02] <linseo> where do I paste code to show and give a URL here?
[22:02] <Ibis> Or a rare problem where the "network wir-something" doesn't work :x
[22:02] <lockersnatch> john38: you are using a routing device (such as linksys, netgear, etc) to connect?
[22:02] <shane4ubuntu> lockersnatch, no prob
[22:02] <john38> lockersnatch, linksys
[22:02] <Stereocaulon> jrib, true, but that does not fix the link to my Personal Directory that is situated in "Locations" on my Gnome Panel.
[22:02] <shane4ubuntu> doriangrey, wow, and still no video with totem?
[22:02] <jrib> Stereocaulon: you mean "Places" right?
[22:02] <john38> lockersnatch, was installing windows 7 in this one bad move
[22:02] <doriangrey> shane4ubuntu,  no video
[22:02] <lockersnatch> john38: what is the current UTP port configuration?
[22:03] <shane4ubuntu> doriangrey, give me a few minutes let me google this, what was your nvidia card again?
[22:03] <jrib> Stereocaulon: are you translating what it actually says?
[22:03] <doriangrey> shane4ubuntu,  how i can get the right model?
[22:03] <Stereocaulon> jrib, yes, probably, running the Dutch version of the Desktop. It is indeed one of the perils of "direct" translation of GUI elements
[22:03] <shane4ubuntu> doriangrey, in the terminal: lspci | grep VGA
[22:03] <Ibis> katzee: Well, sorry I can't be much of help. I would research this, but the connection on my end is slow today. :/
[22:04] <lockersnatch> john38: the reason i ask is b/c im not seeing the correlation between the win install and the internet connection isue
[22:04] <shane4ubuntu> doriangrey, copy and paste would be easiest with that.
[22:04] <Stereocaulon> jrib, and yes, I do mean "Places"
[22:04] <katzee> Ibis: i googled it up a bit, nothing to do... i cant even figure out what to search lol
[22:04] <jrib> Stereocaulon: it should work.  Right click on a directory, open with other application, select "File Browser", mark the checkbox for it to remember
[22:04] <doriangrey> shane4ubuntu,  01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: nVidia Corporation G96 [GeForce 9700M GT] (rev a1)
[22:04] <john38> lockersnatch, the problematic computer doesnt even pick up signal from router could it be broken adapter?
[22:05] <john38> lockersnatch, i might have forced it out of usb port
[22:05] <shane4ubuntu> doriangrey, ok, quick google turns up, probably a codec issue, have you installed any codecs?
[22:05] <shane4ubuntu> !restricted
[22:05] <Ibis> I would of searched "wicd not responding to ethernet cable" or something similar.
[22:05] <doriangrey> shane4ubuntu, i think the extra pack
[22:05] <shane4ubuntu> !restricted | doriangrey
[22:06] <tango__> VLC Media player is good for Video
[22:06] <shane4ubuntu> doriangrey, see the multimedia issues thing above, you need to look at those pages, and see if you are missing codecs
[22:06] <shane4ubuntu> tango__, I agree, however vlc isn't showing video either, only sound
[22:06] <jahbulon> hey
[22:06] <Ibis> YOu might have to manaually set up your eth0 connection, give it a new name and try some settings that matches your "Current connection".
[22:06] <john38> lockersnatch, ?
[22:07] <lockersnatch> john38: is the prob computer connected to router via UTP?
[22:07] <doriangrey> shane4ubuntu, ok i ll ceck it out
[22:07] <john38> lockersnatch, UTP??
[22:07] <shane4ubuntu> doriangrey, sorry we couldn't nail it down, but I'm pretty sure it is a codec issue.
[22:07] <katzee> Ibis: already did, still doesnt display. im installing wicd now, from .deb
[22:07] <tango__> i downloaded a stack of codecs
[22:07] <katzee> Ibis: lets see what it says
[22:08] <Stereocaulon> jrib, yes that does indeed work. Thanks! I'm very curious to find out how it came to be that way that it opened in Totem and *only* when clicked upon the link Places => Personal Files. Opening the directory  /home/$USER just opens the right directory without hassle.
[22:08] <sw0rdfish> heya guys how to install opera? what's the name of its package
[22:08] <john38> lockersnatch, USB Adapter
[22:08] <lockersnatch> john38 unshielded twisted pair (ethernet cable)
[22:08] <doriangrey> shane4ubuntu, ok np i ll read those pages and hope i ll find solutions.. btw thanks for the help
[22:08] <jrib> Stereocaulon: no idea what causes it.  It's some sort of bug probably, because you aren't the first to ask about it
[22:08] <shane4ubuntu> doriangrey, no prob
[22:09] <john38> lockersnatch, wireless router
[22:09] <katzee> Ibis: is there a way to "revert" to an older point of the OS install, like win does? like before today's updates
[22:09] <Ibis> I find it weird having TWO different network managers. I remember doing something similar to this in the past and I got a conflict between two network managers, either that or I messed up when trying to set one up.
[22:09] <lockersnatch> john38: you have a USB to ethernet adapter, or you are connected wirelessly?
[22:09] <dajhorn> sw0rdfish: Opera isn't packaged in the Ubuntu partner repo, so you should get it from the upstream web site.
[22:09] <Ibis> katzee: Did the update included the network manager?
[22:09] <sw0rdfish> i see\
[22:09] <sw0rdfish> crap, i have to compile it right?
[22:09] <shane4ubuntu> Ibis, if you are using wicd, I know that network-manager can be removed
[22:09] <john38> lockersnatch, im broadcasting router wirelessly from this computer and a usb adapter on prob computer
[22:10] <Ibis> And no there is no reverts as far as I know about linux
[22:10] <shane4ubuntu> !who | sw0rdfish
[22:10] <katzee> Ibis: i looked into the updates history, and nothing net manager seems to be unchanged
[22:10] <Ibis> shane4ubuntu: Lol, tnx for the tip, but I'm not touching that. xD
[22:10] <dajhorn> sw0rdfish: No, they provide a tarball for Ubuntu on their main download page.
[22:10] <katzee> Ibis: wicm is failing too
[22:10] <katzee> Ibis: lol
[22:10] <john38> lockersnatch, i entered in all necessary router info on prob computer its like usb adapter isnt working
[22:11] <shane4ubuntu> Ibis, ok, wasn't sure, just caught bits and pieces here and there.
[22:11] <Stereocaulon> jrib, I do have an idea though...I'm used to open Video_TS folders with VLC if the menu support on a particular DVD is lacking. I had a particulary troublesome DVD last weekend that refused to play past a certain chapter on *any* Media player. It must have been that time that the anomaly took place.
[22:11] <john38> lockersnatch, damn could i have broken it
[22:11] <Ibis> I like my other manager better anyway, as it has more options (such as mac address spoofing)
[22:11] <Hellz_Bellz> hello i just installed munin and munin node and its not working
[22:11] <Hellz_Bellz> Ibis: you can do that with ifconfig
[22:11] <sw0rdfish> dajhorn, thanks!
[22:11] <Stereocaulon> jrib, I even needed to *rip* the DVD before I could play that bloody chapter...
[22:12] <dajhorn> sw0rdfish: Welcome.
[22:12] <Hellz_Bellz> ifconfig hw type ether DE:AD:BE:EF:CA:FE
[22:12] <TheSarge> Anyone? How do you change the text size/mode in a tty?
[22:12] <Ibis> Sounds complicated, I like doing it all in GUI. xD
[22:13] <Stereocaulon> TheSarge, you mean a pure text-tty, accesible through Ctrl+F[n] ?
[22:13] <dikiy> TheSarge, setterm?
[22:13] <Stereocaulon> TheSarge, that should be Ctrl + Alt + F[n] ...
[22:13] <Hellz_Bellz> Ibis: how do you use linux if you dont like using the terminal?
[22:13] <Hellz_Bellz> thats like... 90% of what i do lol
[22:14] <dajhorn> TheSarge: fbset
[22:14] <TheSarge> Stereocaulon: Ya thats how you switch to them, how do you change the font size?
[22:14] <Hellz_Bellz> can someone help me with munin, its not working out of the box and after configuration it still doesnt work
[22:14] <TheSarge> dajhorn: I mean permanantly?
[22:14] <Keith-BlindUser> Hi folks. I was wondering if anyone might be able to help me with something? I'm using Ubuntu10.04. Previously, I was running kerenl 2.6.32.22-generic. Now I'm running the 25-generic version. The problem is that Windows is the last entry in my Grub menu. I'm trying to figure out how to remove the 22-generic entrys?
[22:14] <Stereocaulon> Hellz_Bellz, actually, that is a triumph, because it confirms that even people that are not comfortable with the cmd-line run Linux nowadays.
[22:14] <dajhorn> TheSarge: Kernel command line.
[22:15] <Keith-BlindUser> I used to press down arrow four times to land on the Windows entry. Now I have to press it way too many times.
[22:15] <TheSarge> dajhorn: ?
[22:15] <dajhorn> TheSarge: That VT is called the "frame buffer".   Change the mode and resolution with fbset after boot, or before boot with a kernel command line.
[22:15] <jrib> Keith-BlindUser: uninstall the package for the kernel
[22:16] <Ibis> Hellz_Bellz: Oh I love using the terminal, I even currently have that added as a short cut on my panel. It's not a day  igo through without using it. I love the funny "jokes/fortunes" that comes with it.
[22:16] <TheSarge> dajhorn: Yes I remember. I can add that to grub. But I am not dual booting..
[22:16] <Stereocaulon> TheSarge, try "man stty' ( - change and print terminal line settings)
[22:16] <TheSarge> So how do I set that up if not using grub?
[22:16] <Hellz_Bellz> ... you use open suse?
[22:16] <Scott_AG> Can anyone help me with my server? For some reason, it's not showing all the ram but when I run memtest it's all there.
[22:16] <scriptwarlock> whew i finally installed ubuntu in toshiba sattelite a10
[22:16] <Hellz_Bellz> Ibis: that only comes standard on open suse so far as i know
[22:16] <dajhorn> TheSarge: You are using grub even if you aren't dual booting.  The boot menu is just hidden by default in Maverick.
[22:16] <dikiy> Keith-BlindUser, vi /boot/grub/grub.cfg
[22:16] <Ibis> Hellz_Bellz: LinuxMint, jsut another ubuntu spin off. :D
[22:16] <Hellz_Bellz> you have to configure it for ubuntu
[22:17] <Hellz_Bellz> oh
[22:17] <Hellz_Bellz> lol
[22:17] <Hellz_Bellz> cowsay
[22:17] <katzee> is there a way to list eth devices?
[22:17] <katzee> not ifconfig
[22:17] <katzee> i want to see the actual device name, driver etc
[22:17] <Hellz_Bellz> iwlist
[22:17] <TheSarge> dajhorn: Really.. You use a bootloader when you don't dual boot?
[22:17] <Hellz_Bellz> or iwconfig
[22:17] <dajhorn> TheSarge: Yes.  Always.
[22:17] <Keith-BlindUser> Does anyone know how to do this? And I don't know much about the default Ubuntu kernel, so here goes. Does anyone know if the default Ubuntu kernel permits resuming from a spessifyed swap partition? And also, where do I place the resume= line with the new grub2? I know how to work with the old Grub1.x stuff.
[22:17] <Hellz_Bellz> ohhhh katzee use lspci -v -v or lsusb -v -v
[22:17] <Silicone> shame4ubuntu are you still here?
[22:18] <Hellz_Bellz> depending on the bus the eth device is on
[22:18] <Hellz_Bellz> katzee:  are you trying to configure your system for pentesting?
[22:18] <Ibis> Silicone: So you do not like the linux "bootloader" and prefer the one that came with windows for selecting OSes to use?
[22:18] <dikiy> Keith-BlindUser, have you more swap-partition?
[22:18] <dajhorn> TheSarge: Unless you did something extremely weird, your current system has a /boot/grub/grub.cfg file and a regular grub installation.
[22:18] <TheSarge> dajhorn: Sweet, guess that makes sense something has to load the kernel I guess. What is the command to list the availible modes for fbset so i can test someo out before I write the line?
[22:19] <Silicone> Ibis for me no matter what boot loader.. i'd like just to have an option to choose wich OS to be booted
[22:19] <katzee> Hellz_Bellz: i dont even know what pentesting is :P i just want my wired connection back
[22:19] <TheSarge> /s/someo/some
[22:19] <katzee> the device is listed correcly and the driver seems to be the correct one... i cant really understand whats the problem
[22:19] <Stereocaulon> katzee, try: "lspci| grep -i ethernet"
[22:19] <Hellz_Bellz> katzee: open /etc/interfaces and telll me of it says "auto eth0"?
[22:19] <TheSarge> Silicone: I only boot Linux and I am proud :) Now that I have a powerful machine I just run win& in a Vbox when I need it.
[22:19] <Keith-BlindUser> My experience in passed grub was that you could use something like: resume=/dev/sda1 for instance. Is that true or faulse for the new grub2 that Ubuntu uses these days? And if it is still "true," then what file to I add resume to?
[22:19] <dajhorn> TheSarge: Start here: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/FrameBuffer
[22:19] <Keith-BlindUser> Assuming the ubuntu kernel supports the ability to "resume"
[22:20] <TheSarge> I love when people give me RTFM instead of a simple command.
[22:20] <Keith-BlindUser> The resume line won't be any good if the kernel doesn't have that compiled in or whatever.
[22:20] <Ibis> Silicone: You're able to manually add an entry to that boot list, and erase the previous winXP entry as a bonus through windows 7.  Good luck knowing the exact command that will trigger ubuntu
[22:20] <Silicone> TheSarge, since i'm new to Ubuntu, i need 2 systems... in the future we will see
[22:20] <TheSarge> Can anyone just tell me the command to list the availible modes for fbset please?
[22:20] <rohan7> can't run firefox, it says -  error while loading shared libraries: libasound.so.2: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
[22:20] <katzee> Hellz_Bellz: theres not interfaces inside /etc/
[22:20] <Ibis> It's important to know Ubuntu's partition as well.
[22:20] <Silicone> Ibis, how?
[22:20] <Ibis> Or no boot soup for you!
[22:21] <dikiy> Keith-BlindUser, leave the resume option away.
[22:21] <dikiy> That is the best way
[22:21] <imfckd> Hi everyone, so today I was upgrading my ubuntu desktop from 10.04 to 10.10 somehow it froze so I rebooted the computer, tried to log in to a shell but I couldnt so I booted from a live cd mounted my partition ..chrooted to it and did a " sudo dpkg --configure -a" but now I get " rocessing was halted because there were too many errors" please help!!
[22:21] <TheSarge> Silicone: You can still have 2 systems, and use them both at the same time with VirtualBox. I would only do it if you have at least 4GB DDR3 and a Quad core. For Win7 I mean.
[22:21] <Ibis> Silicone: idk, Dont use windows 7, but I did something like that on windows XP, through a tool called    msconfig
[22:21] <jahbulon> how can i create a second partition if i formatted all when i installed ubuntu without make .ing a partition
[22:21] <Hellz_Bellz> katzee:  thats /etc/network/interfaces
[22:21] <katzee> Stereocaulon: that cmd shows it correctly
[22:21] <Hellz_Bellz> sorry lol
[22:21] <Ibis> Maybe on windows 7, you can use the run command to run "msconfig"
[22:21] <Stereocaulon> imfckd, did you switch from 32 bit's to 64 bits during the upgrade?
[22:22] <LinuxAdmin> rohan7, whhy not reinstall it?
[22:22] <Ibis> And click on te boot tab and add an entry, (Where you see XP and win7".
[22:22] <katzee> Hellz_Bellz: no lol, no auto eth0
[22:22] <katzee> Hellz_Bellz: just "auto lo" and "iface lo inet loopback"
[22:22] <streamex> hi guys
[22:22] <imfckd> stereocaulon: sorry, but I don't remember if I was running 64 or 32 initially
[22:22] <rohan7> LinuxAdmin: even after reinstalling, it says the same
[22:22] <Silicone> TheSarge... i have this requirements.... but honestly i'm not ready yet to have windows thru virtual
[22:22] <Hellz_Bellz> put in that line in
[22:22] <Silicone> Ibis, i will try
[22:23] <Stereocaulon> imfckd, what did you do to upgrade?
[22:23] <Silicone> gone to win 7
[22:23] <Hellz_Bellz> katzee: put that line in but replace "eth0" with the name of your wired device
[22:23] <TheSarge> Silicone: Why not? It is just the same as dual booting, except you can use both at once...
[22:23] <katzee> Hellz_Bellz: its eth0 actually
[22:23] <imfckd> stereocaulon: used the "update manager" tool
[22:23] <katzee> Hellz_Bellz: reboot required?
[22:23] <Keith-BlindUser> So arey ou saying that Ubuntu will just know how to resume out of the box if I need to hibernate the system?
[22:23] <rohan7> LinuxAdmin: actually, I forced some 32 bit apps to install in 64bit version, later on I can't load firefox, not only firefox but gnome-panel too
[22:24] <Hellz_Bellz> katzee:  no just type "/etc/init.d/networking restart"
[22:24] <Stereocaulon> imfckd, so you chrooted to you original // directory? In that case you should lookup the logs from the update manager to see what went wrong.
[22:24] <rohan7> LinuxAdmin: so, after I login I don't see top bar and bottom bar,
[22:24] <katzee> Hellz_Bellz: ignoring unknown interface eth0=eth0
[22:25] <Stereocaulon> imfckd, strike one / from my last message ;-)
[22:25] <LinuxAdmin> rohan7, try "apt-get install libasound2"
[22:25] <Hellz_Bellz> eh
[22:25] <streamex> wtf... cant join a channel
[22:25] <Hellz_Bellz> katzee: im lost then lol
[22:25] <streamex> #telepathy ... =\
[22:25] <katzee> Hellz_Bellz: i wonder how can something like this happen randomly
[22:25] <rohan7> LinuxAdmin: ok let me try
[22:25] <imfckd> stereocaulon: yes I did. Ok so the location would be /var/log/>
[22:25] <imfckd> ?
[22:25] <Gnea> streamex: you probably need to identify
[22:25] <katzee> Hellz_Bellz: everything used to work since 4h ago
[22:26] <Stereocaulon> imfckd, yes, that would be the location indeed.
[22:26] <streamex> yo
[22:26] <imfckd> stereocaulon: /var/log/messages?
[22:26] <Gnea> yo?
[22:26] <streamex> =\ why i can't join a channel "#telepathy"
[22:26] <Stereocaulon> imfckd, /var/log/apt/term.log
[22:26] <Gnea> streamex: because you need to identify with nickserv. /msg nickserv help
[22:27] <Ibis> !click-here Silicone http://dandar3.blogspot.com/2009/06/how-to-add-ubuntu-904-boot-entry-to.html
[22:27] <Silicone> Ibis, ok thx
[22:28] <Ibis> Shhhh bot! *is jealous of not being able to use said bot*
[22:28] <imfckd> stereocaulon: I see this "Can not write log, openpty() failed (/dev/pts not mounted?)" as my last 2 errors
[22:28] <helo> hmm... i just noticed the "RT" in the priority column in top
[22:28] <Ibis> Silicone: Knowing your partitions is extremely important.
[22:28] <helo> does this mean i'm running a -rt patched kernel?
[22:28] <toolbear> hi. how do you get rid of warnings like "This is not dpkg install-info anymore, but GNU install-info"?
[22:30] <Stereocaulon> imfckd, that last error basically tells you that it could not display the next error messages on your terminal, /dev/pts is your Pseudo Terminal Device.
[22:30] <Silicone> Ibis, thx.. gone for a reboot
[22:31] <Ibis> toolbear: Since when that error popped up?
[22:31] <katzee> i think there are problems with this card
[22:31] <imfckd> stereocaulon: the rest above these two errors are just " Setting up 'package name" ... " messages
[22:31] <katzee> http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/linux-laptop-and-netbook-25/wireless-slow-to-connect-791161/ this guy is having problems too, same laptop, same card
[22:31] <katzee> oh no, he got problems with the wireless...
[22:32] <guntbert> Keith-BlindUser: if your swap partition/file is big enough for the complete RAM, yes, I tries to resume from there on every boot
[22:32] <guntbert> *it trries...
[22:32] <guntbert> meh
[22:32] <geekfuu> which wireless card?
[22:32] <katzee> Realtek RTL8111/8168B
[22:32] <rohan7> LinuxAdmin: nope !! still the same error
[22:32] <katzee> not wireless, eth
[22:33] <geekfuu> ah
[22:33] <katzee> i got problems with my wired network, wireless is working
[22:33] <rohan7> LinuxAdmin: it says - libasound2 is already the newest version.
[22:33] <Stereocaulon> katzee, what wired ethernet card are you using?
[22:33] <LinuxAdmin> rohan7, try also "sudo apt-get install libasound2-plugins"
[22:33] <katzee> Stereocaulon: Realtek RTL8111/8168B
[22:34] <imfckd> stereocaulon: before I get the error " Processing was halted because there were too many errors" I see a lot of these messages prior to failing  "dependency problems - leaving unconfigured"
[22:34] <rohan7> LinuxAdmin: ok, if it doesn't work?
[22:34] <LinuxAdmin> try it first
[22:34] <Chalkie1983> Hi can someone tell me, if i use wubi to install ubuntu onto my dedi box located in a data centre is ssh or remote desktop installed?
[22:34] <rohan7> ok
[22:35] <Silicone> Ibis, you must get a beer from me ;)
[22:35] <Stereocaulon> imfckd, those errors are all linked to the update you did, it would be interesting to see the first lines related to the update...If you still remember exactly when you upgraded, you could search for that timestamp
[22:36] <imfckd> stereocaulon: this is some of the errors: http://pastie.org/1311966
[22:36] <geekfuu> katzee did you try the realtek linux drivers?
[22:36] <Silicone> Ibis, are you still here?
[22:36] <guntbert> katzee: did you already !pastebin your /etc/network/interfaces ?
[22:36] <katzee> geekfuu: no, but everything was working just fine just a couple hours ago
[22:36] <katzee> guntbert: nope
[22:37] <guntbert> katzee: please do
[22:37] <geekfuu> sorry just catching up here, what version are you running?
[22:37] <katzee> guntbert: cant, im not on that pc, but output is "auto lo" and "iface lo inet loopback"
[22:37] <imfckd> stereocaulon: here are the first lines : http://pastie.org/1311969
[22:37] <katzee> geekfuu: 10.10
[22:38] <jihedamine> Hi, is there a gnome applet to pin documents (files) ?
[22:38] <katzee> geekfuu: i added "auto eth0"
[22:39] <katzee> geekfuu: but its ignoring it
[22:39] <Stereocaulon> imfckd, very strange, all of the errors you run into are dependency problems. Did you have lots of forced .deb-file installs or PPA's?
[22:39] <guntbert> katzee: ok, and ifconfig eth0 gives a sensible answer?
[22:39] <rohan7> LinuxAdmin: didn't work, libasound2-plugins is already the newest version
[22:40] <katzee> guntbert: it shows something, but dont know what it should show, show me yours
[22:40] <Chalkie1983> can someone help me with a rather weird situation?
[22:40] <banisterfiend> how do i install 'configure' and friends?
[22:40] <geekfuu> do ifconfig eth0 from a terminal katzee
[22:40] <katzee> geekfuu: did it, it shows a block
[22:40] <katzee> geekfuu: mac address seems to be right
[22:40] <imfckd> stereocaulon: all I did was upgrade to 10.10 using update manager .. I have to admit I made the mistake of opening firefox then installation froze but being the idiot that Im rebooted and then I couldnt get in
[22:40] <guntbert> katzee: http://pastebin.com/zCvxXYTi
[22:41] <rohan7> LinuxAdmin: any new ideas mate?
[22:41] <guntbert> katzee: wired is not in use now
[22:41] <dvanstone> Good Afternoon
[22:42] <katzee> guntbert: thats pretty much my output, but last line is Interrupt:52 Base address:0x8000
[22:42] <LinuxAdmin> is your os 32 or 64 bits?
[22:42] <Chalkie1983> my situation: i have a windows xp pro box in a data centre with 2 hdd's. If i install using wubi is ssh or remote desktop already installed?
[22:42] <rohan7> 64 bit
[22:43] <Stereocaulon> imfckd, just the dependencies that Firefox uses should not block your ability to even boot properly. No, I don't think that your open Firefox session has anything to do with it.
[22:43] <LinuxAdmin> witch graphical environment are you using?
[22:43] <Stereocaulon> LinuxAdmin, Gnome2, XFCE and FluxBox
[22:43] <rohan7> LinuxAdmin: Ubuntu 10.04 x64bit Gnome
[22:43] <guntbert> katzee: thats ok, so try adding a line:  auto eth0           (and nothing else) to /etc/network/interfaces
[22:44] <katzee> guntbert: already tried, but /etc/init.d/networking restart outputs
[22:44] <katzee> ignoring unknown interface eth0=eth0
[22:44] <Vadtec> greetings all, is it necesary to use a crossover cable when connecting directly to a motorola cable modem when running ubuntu? i highly doubt it, but ubuntu 10.04 LTS+dhcp+my cabel modem resufes to work
[22:44] <LinuxAdmin> rohan7, weren't firefox already installed on your system?
[22:45] <LinuxAdmin> have it worked already?
[22:45] <vincent1> Hello,  Does anyone here know how to fix sound coming out of both headphones and built in speakers on a laptop running 10.10
[22:45] <imfckd> stereocaulon: but rebooting the machine broke the upgrade so I'm guessing some of the necessary files to log in properly were broken.. I was able to boot but the login screen was blank and the clock was at the bottom and I couldnt move the mouse or type anything at all
[22:45] <rohan7> LinuxAdmin: I've been using it for the past 3 days until I messed up with alsa
[22:45] <Chalkie1983> i guess no one knows the answer to my question then
[22:46] <Stereocaulon> imfckd, but can you still use a terminal tty (using Ctrl + Alt + F2 ) for instance?
[22:46] <geekfuu> katzee: is there a line below auto eth0 in /etc/network/interfaces
[22:46] <guntbert> katzee: please check once mor if the line is exactly as I suggested above
[22:46] <rohan7> LinuxAdmin: yes it worked already, firefox 3.6.12
[22:46] <NoirSoldats> How do I configure NVidia with multiple options for display setup? EG: When plugged in to my docking station use a three monitor setup with a specific external monitor being Primary and extending the desktop on to a second monitor and my laptop screen. and when not plugged in to the dock just use my laptop's screen?
[22:46] <katzee> guntbert: yes there is auto lo, delete it?
[22:46] <guntbert> Chalkie1983: please be patient
[22:47] <geekfuu> "iface eth0 inet dhcp"
[22:47] <guntbert> katzee: no, leave it !!
[22:47] <Chalkie1983> guntbert in all honesty i didnt think it was possible, im not being rude or obnoxious
[22:47] <guntbert> katzee: listen to geekfuu
[22:47] <katzee> geekfuu: add that?
[22:47] <geekfuu> last line below auto eth0
[22:47] <geekfuu> it should say that
[22:47] <geekfuu> out of the box
[22:47] <katzee> geekfuu: it doesnt
[22:48] <geekfuu> add it :)
[22:48] <Stereocaulon> imfckd, You might try using apt autoclean to first clean your apt tree and then try a dist-upgrade again.
[22:48] <guntbert> Chalkie1983: don't worry, but it usually take some time till someone can/will read your original question
[22:48] <mclrk> !spoon
[22:48] <rohan7> LinuxAdmin: I think I might re-install the OS
[22:48] <Vadtec> geekfuu: if you get a min, i have a question i bet you can answer about why dhcp might not be working on my box
[22:48] <guntbert> !who | geekfuu
[22:48] <imfckd> stereocaulon: I tried doing that but I couldnt .. the whole thing was unresponsive
[22:49] <rohan7> LinuxAdmin: any suggestions if I can resolve it without re-installing whole Ubuntu?
[22:49] <Stereocaulon> imfckd, so the keyboard didn't even work properly?
[22:49] <LinuxAdmin> rohan7, have you tried "sudo apt-get install firefox"?
[22:49] <katzee> geekfuu: DHCPDISCOVER on eth0 to 255.255.255.255 port 67, keeps doing it, no way
[22:49] <katzee> geekfuu: why 255.255.255.255?
[22:49] <DasEi> Chalkie1983: just came in, what's your problem ?
[22:50] <alesan> has ubuntu a firewall by default?
[22:50] <katzee> geekfuu: no DHCPOFFERS received
[22:50] <Chalkie1983> my situation: i have a windows xp pro box in a data centre with 2 hdd's. If i install using wubi is ssh or remote desktop already installed?
[22:50] <rohan7> LinuxAdmin: yes, it says - firefox is already the newest version.
[22:50] <DasEi> alesan, yes ufw , but not enabled
[22:51] <Stereocaulon> imfckd, hmm, you could try to chroot from a Live CD to your original root partition and try to dist-upgrade from there. I'm not sure if that would work if you've had other partitions for /etc, /home and such.
[22:51] <LinuxAdmin> rohan7, I wouldn't reinstall os just because firefox, try google chrome
[22:51] <DasEi> Chalkie1983: no
[22:51] <Chalkie1983> i dont want windows xp on the box but i dont see why i spend £60 a month on rack space when they wont install ubuntu for me.
[22:51] <Chalkie1983> DasEi is there no way for me to remotly install ubuntu?
[22:51] <rohan7> LinuxAdmin: the only thing I can see in my current OS is, terminal window and nautilus
[22:52] <RailsDeveloper> Hey there, got Ubuntu 10.10 32-bit running on virtualbox host is windows 7 64-bit and I can't seem to get my wireless card to get detected in ubuntu....i've tried many things from the forums and nothings worked =( please help!!!
[22:52] <rohan7> LinuxAdmin: chrome, opera they don't install somehow
[22:52] <Stereocaulon> rohan7, just apt-get purge firefox and start the install anew.
[22:52] <imfckd> stereocaulon: I just booted into a live cd and chrooted to my original root partition and then did "sudo apt-get dist-upgrade" it's running now downloading a bunch of packages.. I hope it works! =(
[22:53] <LinuxAdmin> rohan7, in that circumstances I would reinstall os, you had to make a lot of mistakes
[22:53] <rohan7> Stereocaulon: it's not just firefox , gnome-panel too -- error while loading shared libraries: libasound.so.2: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
[22:53] <Chalkie1983> !remoteinstall
[22:53] <Stereocaulon> imfckd, I hope so too. You *did* make a backup, didn't you?
[22:53] <RailsDeveloper> Hey there, got Ubuntu 10.10 32-bit running on virtualbox host is windows 7 64-bit and I can't seem to get my wireless card to get detected in ubuntu....i've tried many things from the forums and nothings worked =( please help!!!
[22:54] <rohan7> LinuxAdmin: yeah i was hoping so
[22:54] <Stereocaulon> rohan7, those libs are not critical to your system, but it is an indication that something is missing or misconfigured
[22:54] <flying_penguin> I'm having problems connecting to my gconf server and dbus it looks like a permissions problem but I've checked all my config files. Ive also tryed reinstalling and reconfigureing gconf. I found on google some similare problem but no solutions that worked for me. dose anyone know how to fix this?
[22:54] <imfckd> stereocaulon: yeah I do nightly backups, maybe some things I left in the desktop but could care less about those files
[22:55] <toolbear> hi. how do you get rid of warnings like "This is not dpkg install-info anymore, but GNU install-info"?
[22:55] <Stereocaulon> imfckd, All right, in that case it's safe to experiment.
[22:55] <imfckd> stereocaulon: just the hassle of installing everything again
[22:55] <brontoeee> RailsDeveloper, wireless card detected in virtualized os? why would you need that?
[22:55] <imfckd> =(
[22:55] <Chalkie1983> DasEi1 is there no way for me to remotly install ubuntu?
[22:55] <Stereocaulon> imfckd, on the other hand, you will have a spanking clean box again, freed of all the muck that has accumulated all those years.
[22:55] <DasEi1> Chalkie1983: sorry, was disconnected
[22:56] <imfckd> stereocaulon: we will see how it goes.. thanks for your help
[22:56] <Chalkie1983> its okay DasEi1 thanks for taking the trouble to answer my questions :)
[22:56] <Stereocaulon> imfckd, don't mention it, glad to help a fellow penguin ;-)
[22:57] <RailsDeveloper> Hey there, got Ubuntu 10.10 32-bit running on virtualbox host is windows 7 64-bit and I can't seem to get my wireless card to get detected in ubuntu....i've tried many things from the forums and nothings worked =( please help!!!
[22:57] <meoblast001> if i just sshed as root, where does configuration data get stored?
[22:57] <meoblast001> like when i store a known host permanenetly?
[22:58] <Chalkie1983> RailsDeveloper if you are using a virtual box you dont want to use the wifi card but use a nat bridged connection between virtualbox and windows 7
[22:59] <Jordan_U> meoblast001: 1: You probably don't need or want to be running ssh as root. 2: /root/.ssh/known_hosts
[22:59] <meoblast001> ok, thanks
[22:59] <RailsDeveloper> Chalkie1983, Im doing that now but im trying to use airsnort and some other programs that require my wireless card =\ am I just going to have to dual boot and do the airsnort from its own ubuntu installation?
[22:59] <meoblast001> Jordan_U: 1 is the reason i need to know 2
[22:59] <DasEi> Chalkie1983: how do you acces the remote pc ?
[23:00] <Chalkie1983> i use remote desktop connection at the moment
[23:00] <mkanyicy> Chalkie1983, ssh
[23:00] <meoblast001> Jordan_U: thanks
[23:00] <Jordan_U> meoblast001: You're welcome.
[23:01] <DasEi> Chalkie1983: please put nick in answer ; so why not install virtualbox and then ubuntu in it ?
[23:01] <RailsDeveloper> Chalkie1983: Will Ubuntu only be able to detect wireless from its own installation?
[23:01] <toonacid> Anyone familiar with fail2ban?
[23:01] <DasEi> toonacid: little
[23:01] <Chalkie1983> RailsDeveloper im not 100% sure i have used virtual box before thats all
[23:02] <RailsDeveloper> Chalkie1983: Alrighty, thanks for the help! Much appreciated :)
[23:02] <DasEi> toonacid: mor soecific ?
[23:02] <DasEi> p*
[23:02] <Chalkie1983> DasEi: I would but then that leaves me with windows xp and ubuntu running together, i want to wipe windows eventually
[23:02] <toonacid> DasEi: I'm typing it up...
[23:02] <mubix> evenin'
[23:03] <imfckd> stereocaulon: it gives me errors again.. i should just do a fresh install and forget it
[23:03] <DasEi> Chalkie1983: have you got physical acces to that system ?
[23:03] <Chalkie1983> no its over 400 miles away
[23:03] <mubix> quick ?: I've done a bunch of searches but I'm definitely not hitting the right keywords or something. Anyone know why the 'Intrepid' directory disappeared on the apt repos?
[23:04] <Chalkie1983> DasEi: no its over 400 miles away
[23:04] <erUSUL> !eol | mubix
[23:04] <mubix> oh wow, 8.10 is EOL?
[23:04] <DasEi> Chalkie1983: so could be dangerous as in loosing connection then
[23:04] <Pici> mubix: Yes, since end of April 2010.
[23:04] <spivwaq> Hi
[23:05] <Jordan_U> Chalkie1983: Why do you want to run airsnort on a computer in a server room belonging to someone else?
[23:05] <Stereocaulon> imfckd, sorry to hear that, but check up on the sanity of the HDD first, before you loose more precicous time
[23:05] <DasEi> mubix: yes, no :
[23:05] <DasEi> !LTS
[23:05] <snake__> is there a diagnostic for seeing why my lamp server is not working?
[23:05] <yeats> mubix: yes, but that fact doesn't explain why it disappeared from the old-releases repo - no idea why
[23:05] <mubix> wow.. ok
[23:05] <Chalkie1983> DasEi: yes, i do have a machine setup here with windows xp on and networked together to try it before i try it on my dedi box
[23:05] <jrib> snake__: define "not worknig"
[23:05] <yeats> mubix: possible someone needs to know that :-/
[23:05] <iFith> !Maverick
[23:05] <iFith> :)
[23:05] <Chalkie1983> Jordan_U: it wasnt me that wanted to do that it was RailsDeveloper
[23:06] <snake__> jrib, so i can view the contents of my server on my local network, but it cannot be found anywhere outside of my lan.
[23:06] <Jordan_U> Chalkie1983: Sorry for the mixup.
[23:06] <DasEi> Chalkie1983: you said it has two drives, so can mount ubuntu iso by virtualclone drive, boot it and install to the other hd and then..
[23:06] <Chalkie1983> Jordan_U lol thats okay
[23:06] <Chalkie1983> yes it has 2 drives
[23:06] <Pici> yeats: Its still available on old-releases
[23:06] <jrib> snake__: that's likely a router issue
[23:07] <Chalkie1983> DasEi: yes it has 2 drives, one for windows and the other is spare
[23:07] <DasEi> Chalkie1983: boot again that live cd, chroot in the done installation and configure ubuntu for ssh
[23:07] <snake__> jrib, i have nat set up, plus my firewall is off on my router.
[23:07] <snake__> *NAT
[23:07] <Chalkie1983> DasEi: is it possible to do that in windows xp?
[23:07] <toonacid> DasEi: Hopefully you're able to answer my question .. I made this script which will convert a named port (like 'ssh') to it's respective port number, however fail2ban is having issues here... It seems that it works, but when the variable gets to the %(port)s and %(protocol)s, I don't think the variables expand or something.. You can see here. http://pastebin.com/YPC3ky1T
[23:07] <DasEi> Chalkie1983: should be, virtualclonedrive is there
[23:08] <yeats> Pici: last I looked the directory for intrepid wasn't there which is why there's an uptick of 8.10 users asking about it
[23:08] <yeats> Pici: of course, I run lucid (wasn't a fan of 8.10 ;-) )
[23:08] <Jordan_U> Chalkie1983: There are ways to make a completely automated Ubuntu server install, and set it up to boot within windows, but it's not exactly a common task.
[23:08] <Pici> yeats: It was recently removed from the regular mirrors, although about 6months late.
[23:08] <jrib> snake__: port 80 needs to be forwarded
[23:08] <Chalkie1983> Jordan_U: i can understand that hence why i am here :)
[23:09] <snake__> jrib, is this possible on netgear?
[23:09] <Jordan_U> Chalkie1983: If possible, it might be easier to give a virtual machine access to the second drive, install Ubuntu in the VM, then boot into the second drive normally.
[23:09] <jrib> snake__: probably, you have to check its documentation
[23:09] <alesan> hi! how do I check what is the network configuration from THE COMMAND LINE?
[23:09] <snake__> jrib, cool. thanks.
[23:09] <bazhang> alesan, ifconfig
[23:09] <Pici> alesan: ifconfig
[23:09] <Stereocaulon> alesan, ifconfig
[23:09] <alesan> nono wait
[23:09] <alesan> ok
[23:09] <alesan> I know that
[23:09] <yeats> Pici: ah - that explains a lot
[23:09] <Jordan_U> alesan: nm-tool
[23:09] <alesan> but, how it is static IP, DHCP, etc
[23:10] <Stereocaulon> Jordan_U, yes... nice interface that tool
[23:10] <alesan> yes but I want to check the "configuration"
[23:10] <alesan> for example if UBUNTU will get a dhcp address or if it is set on static
[23:11] <alesan> and, in case how to change it from the command line
[23:11] <alesan> is it possible?
[23:11] <alesan> my impressoin is that UBUNTU does not have many command line commands
[23:11] <yeats> !enter | alesan
[23:12] <alesan> for example in Slackware it was enough to check a text file
[23:12] <alesan> or change it to change the network config
[23:12] <DasEi> toonacid: I can't answer that, you will have to describe which interaction you want beetween portchanging and fail2ban and then ask in #bash or  #phython
[23:12] <Stereocaulon> alesan, that *is* done through ifconfig. Ubuntu has lot's of cmd-line tools, it's a spin-off of Debian
[23:12] <alesan> yeats, what is a work/sentence ration that is satisfactory for your sensibility?
[23:12] <alesan> Stereocaulon, ok where is the config stored?
[23:13] <yeats> alesan: /etc/network/interfaces
[23:13] <alesan> s/ration/ratio
[23:13] <alesan> yeats, cat /etc/network/interfaces
[23:13] <alesan> auto lo
[23:13] <alesan> iface lo inet loopback
[23:13] <alesan> but I want to check eth0's config
[23:14] <Jordan_U> alesan: If you prefer to use text based configuration files you can edit /etc/network/interfaces and use "ifup" and "ifdown". This will be used instead of network-manager which is more dynamic.
[23:14] <ste> !list
[23:14] <alesan> Jordan_U, it's not that I want to, but now I only have remote access to this computer
[23:14] <alesan> thourgh ssh
[23:15] <ste> |list
[23:15] <Stereocaulon> alesan, check route to see if you find a common gateway that you recognize. That way you can find out if you are using dhcp or not
[23:15] <alesan> the gateway is 192.168.1.1 I know that otherwise I could not connect to this computer :)
[23:15] <dvanstone> is there a way to change rpm to deb
[23:15] <jrib> alesan: check out nmcli and/or cnetworkmanager
[23:15] <alesan> so there is no way to change network-manager configuration from the command line?
[23:15] <Stereocaulon> dvanstone, alien
[23:16] <yeats> alesan: can you ssh -X and do 'network-manager' from the CLI?
[23:16] <alesan> yeats, good idea, let's see
[23:16] <ferris_> I am looking to embed linux on a samsung mp3 player can someone point me in the right direction?
[23:16] <DasEi> dvanstone: yes...but
[23:16] <Jordan_U> alesan: If you're using Ubuntu 10.10 you can also use "nmcli" to edit network-manager configuration.
[23:16] <dvanstone> Stereocaulon: does it work the other way also?
[23:17] <yeats> alesan: probably *sudo* network-manager
[23:17] <Stereocaulon> !offtopic | ferris_
[23:17] <yeats> alesan: wait - maybe not ...
[23:17] <DasEi> dvanstone: really no other possibillity ? compilig is always safer, if you really think you need to, use alien- own risk
[23:17] <alesan> Jordan_U, this is the problem: this is my mom's PC. it is at most a 7.10, maybe a 7.04
[23:17] <spivwaq> I removed the evolution notification from panel... how can I get it back?
[23:17] <alesan> I am connecting remotely to update it :)
[23:17] <ferris_> yeah... i am using ubuntu but wondering how I might embed it... or if it is even possible
[23:18] <jrib> alesan: you should just do a fresh install, it's too old
[23:18] <erUSUL> !rockbox | ferris_ it is not linux but it is *free*
[23:18] <alesan> yeats, I cannot find that command or binary "network-manager"
[23:18] <alesan> jrib, impossible, I am at 6000miles from there
[23:18] <yeats> alesan: right - sorry for the bad info... I'm looking
[23:18] <Stereocaulon> alesan, try to find out first which version you are running. Certain command might have changed slightly.
[23:18] <Jordan_U> alesan: Then it should not be connected to the internet, let alone be accessible through the internet via ssh.
[23:18] <dvanstone> Stereocaulon: so compile from source works best then
[23:18] <nucc33> HI guys, Im fixing a mate computer, I wanna know this is 32 or 64 bit version of Ubuntu, anywhere I can see that?
[23:19] <jrib> nucc33: uname -m
[23:19] <DasEi> dvanstone: safer then alien, see :
[23:19] <DasEi> !compile
[23:19] <DasEi> dvanstone: may I ask which app ?
[23:19] <Jordan_U> alesan: It is completely insecure to be running Ubuntu 7.04, it hasn't had security updates in years and there are *known* vulnerabilities.
[23:19] <Stereocaulon> nucc33, try uname -a
[23:19] <alesan> Jordan_U, how do I check the version?
[23:19] <dvanstone> a whole build /rebuild
[23:19] <DasEi> alesan: lsb_release -a
[23:20] <dvanstone> fun
[23:20] <bazhang> alesan, lsb_release -a
[23:20] <alesan> oh ok
[23:20] <alesan> 9.04 :)
[23:20] <alesan> sorry for the false alarm
[23:20] <alesan> I got confused
[23:20] <alesan> 7.04 was my ex-gf's one :)
[23:20] <jrib> alesan: that's too old too, just not as much
[23:20] <Stereocaulon> alesan, well, 7.10 was a nice distro.
[23:21] <alesan> jrib, THAT IS THE REASON I want to update it
[23:21] <jrib> alesan: so update it
[23:21] <DasEi> alesan: though there is some stuff to learn, consider upgrading to lucid, worth the hassle, and then got lts-version
[23:21] <dvanstone> Stereocaulon: shouldnt that be uname -r
[23:21] <alesan> jrib, how? I only have an ssh access to it. what do you recommend to do?
[23:22] <Stereocaulon> dvanstone, uname -a shows everything, also if it's 32 or 64-bit
[23:22] <jrib> alesan: pick up your phone and tell someone on the computer the the buttons to press
[23:22] <Jordan_U> !upgrade | alesan
[23:22] <alesan> DasEi, what is the recommended upgrade path from 9.04 to "LUCID"?
[23:22] <dvanstone> I thought that you were looking for the build
[23:22] <DasEi> alesan: can do a dist-upgrade from command line
[23:22] <dvanstone> kernel
[23:22] <jrib> alesan: there are server instructions you could use but honestly the better solution is to teach the person using the computer how to keep it up to date
[23:23] <Stereocaulon> alesan, if you just want to upgrade it, try sudo dist-upgrade
[23:23] <DasEi> alesan:install update-manager
[23:23] <arcsky> guys how can i encrypt my /home dir?
[23:23] <Jordan_U> Stereocaulon: There is no such command.
[23:23] <jrib> Stereocaulon, alesan: "sudo dist-upgrade" is not how you upgrade.  ubottu's link has correct instructions
[23:23] <alesan> jrib, couldn't ubuntu update itself? people want to use a computer for facebook and skype, not maintain it
[23:23] <jahbulon> hey guyz ...
[23:23] <jahbulon> i have a issue
[23:23] <alesan> ok thanks!
[23:23] <alesan> bye
[23:23] <jrib> alesan: it asks "do you want me to upgrade myself" and the user clicks "yes"
[23:24] <Stereocaulon> jrib, you are of course right, I forgot the apt-part
[23:24] <DasEi> jrib. ales.. just left, but it'll hardly on ssh
[23:24] <jrib> Stereocaulon: that's not the proper way to upgrade ubuntu
[23:25] <Stereocaulon> jrib, not even on 9.04?
[23:25] <TeruFSX> Does anyone know how to add more languages to gedit?
[23:25] <DrGrov> Good evening
[23:25] <jrib> Stereocaulon: not since like dapper iirc
[23:25] <TeruFSX> or create the required plugins, rather
[23:25]  * dvanstone ** is off to see the wizard **
[23:25] <DrGrov> How can I easily update from 10.04 LTS to 10.10? I am in dire need to update since 10.04 is acting up really much of late.
[23:25] <jrib> !upgrade > DrGrov
[23:26] <Stereocaulon> jrib, oh my, and I've been using Ubuntu since Warty...Shame on me :-/
[23:26] <jahbulon> i have a 150 HDD when i installed ubuntu i did noyt make any partition .. now i wanna create 1!! how can I?
[23:26] <MichaelKohler> I have a dual boot system (ubuntu + windows) and I have installed a program on windows which needs a reboot. since then it doesn't boot correctly anymore, it just displays "grub loading.." and reboots again... what could I do?
[23:26] <DasEi> jahbulon: humm ? but can boot ubuntu ?
[23:27] <DrGrov> I would love to be able to keep my /home partition, both my wifes and mine. Can that be easily saved?
[23:27] <Jordan_U> MichaelKohler: The program you installed most likley has DRM which overwrites grub.
[23:27] <baunax> DrGrov: from you can configure which kind of updates you should be warned of
 yes ...
[23:27] <Jordan_U> MichaelKohler: What version of Ubuntu are you using?
[23:27] <jrib> DrGrov: if you upgrade, your home doesn't get touched
[23:27] <DasEi> MichaelKohler: grub2 ? get supergrubdisk greater version 1, use autorepair
[23:27] <Stereocaulon> DrGrov, yes, just make a tar-archive of it, if you Home is not too big
[23:28] <DasEi> jahbulon: so there are definitly parti's , install gparted and re-check
[23:28] <baunax> DrGrov: and then use the in the Update Manager you'll see a button every time a new release is ready
[23:28] <MichaelKohler> Jordan_U: maverick
[23:28] <MichaelKohler> DasEi: I guess I'll need to try that
[23:28] <MichaelKohler> thanks guys
[23:28] <nucc33> jrib, that did return i686, is that 64 bit?
[23:28] <snake__> jrib, ok, if my settings are correct; I should be able to give my friend my external ip, and it will forward to my servers internal ip. correct?
[23:28] <jrib> nucc33: 32bit
[23:28] <DrGrov> jrib: You absolutely sure about that?
[23:29] <jahbulon> DasEi: sudo get-apt gparted ?
[23:29] <DasEi> MichaelKohler: live cd would also work, but if grub"body" is still there.. there are some apps known to damage grub
[23:29] <Stereocaulon> DrGrov, if your homedirs of both you and your wife are unencrypted, just tar-bzip it and you are done. Might take some time though
[23:29] <DrGrov> Stereocaulon: The problem is my home is around 120GB
[23:29] <DasEi> jahbulon: sudo apt-get install gparted
[23:29] <nucc33> jrib, if you had 8gb of ddr3 ram, what would you install?
[23:29] <jrib> DrGrov: yes.  The only way you would lose your home would be if you chose to do a fresh install.  If you use update-manager to upgrade, it just upgrades packages
[23:29] <jahbulon> DasEi: thx
[23:29] <jrib> nucc33: 64bit
[23:29] <DasEi> jahbulon: sudo gparted, when done
[23:29] <nucc33> blast, then I need to reinstal
[23:29] <Stereocaulon> DrGrov, in that case, do you still have unpartitioned space which spans 120GB?
[23:30] <DrGrov> jrib: Ok, that is great. That is something I am in dire need of. How about configuration settings for Transmission, Pidgin, Firefox, Chromium, OpenOffice etc? Config files for these applications will be untouched?
[23:30] <DasEi> !grub > MichaelKohler , the section lost grub after windows could also be used , but sgd is simpler
[23:30] <snake__> jrib, should i change my server port to 80? or keep it a 3306?
[23:31] <DrGrov> Stereocaulon: Unfortunately not since I am a bit of a heavy user which costs me a lot of space :(
[23:31] <MichaelKohler> !grub
[23:31] <jrib> DrGrov: yes, they won't be touched.  You should have backups of course since software is software... but nothing should be touched
[23:31] <Stereocaulon> DrGrov, you might try a backup to an externa drive than, if you happen to have one.
[23:31] <jrib> snake__: whatever you want
[23:31] <snake__> jrib, but how does my router know where to go?
[23:32] <jrib> snake__: you tell it :)
[23:32] <Stereocaulon> DrGrov, sorry about my spelling, my keyboard is acting up.
[23:32] <DrGrov> Stereocaulon: I think I will try to backup for about 4GB of the most important things I have and remove everything else. A good way to get a "fresh" install.
[23:32] <DrGrov> Stereocaulon: No worries :)
[23:32] <snake__> jrib, but it does not ask me...
[23:32] <DrGrov> jrib: Ok. Is 10.10 stable enough to use?
[23:32] <furiousDingo> yep
[23:32] <Jordan_U> MichaelKohler: If you want to use a LiveCD you already have to re-install grub then follow this guide: http://grub.enbug.org/Grub2LiveCdInstallGuide . If you want to use Super GRUB2 Disk then just boot SG2D, select the option "Detect any GRUB2 installation (even if mbr is overwritten)". That will allow you to boot Ubuntu, once Ubuntu is booted run "sudo dpkg-reconfigure grub-pc -pcritical" to re-install grub.
[23:32] <jrib> snake__: you need to consult your router's documentation, I don't know about it
[23:32] <DasEi> MichaelKohler: http://download.berlios.de/supergrub/super_grub_disk_hybrid-1.98s1.iso
[23:32] <YiamiYo> hello...i've got a problem...i cannot mount my cd with ubuntu 10.10...i cannot even find the cd "path" at my dev: http://pastebin.com/iVpMFVyi
[23:33] <Stereocaulon> DrGrov, yes it's stable enough, don't expect any fancy differences between Maverick and Lucid though
[23:33] <DasEi> YiamiYo: open a terminal ..
[23:33] <YiamiYo> ok...
[23:34] <DasEi> YiamiYo: sudo mkdir /media/cd
[23:34] <wolfric> is there anyway of doing full disk encryption after the os is already installed?
[23:34] <DasEi> YiamiYo: one optical drive only ?
[23:34] <DrGrov> Stereocaulon: Ok, then I will still give 10.04 another chance. I've had some really painful experiences in the past 4 months... It is killing me since every 2-3 boots is acting up and disabling sound, shutdown possiblity, reboot possiblity and suspend. Only thing to do is to jump to tty1 and sudo reboot and hope it works out better then the next time.
[23:34] <YiamiYo> y
[23:34] <snake__> jrib, it says it must be 80
[23:34] <DasEi> YiamiYo: sudo mount /dev/sr0 /media/sr0 (with a cd inserted)
[23:34] <DrGrov> Stereocaulon: I think I will just do the update once Ubuntu is called Deathstar or something that cool :) LOL
[23:35] <DasEi> YiamiYo: sudo mount /dev/sr0 /media/cd (with a cd inserted) , ^sorry
[23:35] <katzee> i cant get to restore the old network manager after wicd uninstall
[23:35] <katzee> :\
[23:35] <Stereocaulon> DrGrov, sounds like you are experiencing hardware difficulties there.
[23:35] <DasEi> YiamiYo: cd /media/cd
[23:35] <YiamiYo> DasEi, did you see my pastebin post?
[23:35] <YiamiYo> mount: special device /dev/sr0 does not exist
[23:35] <MichaelKohler> Jordan_U, DasEi: thanks. I'll try and ask if I have a question :)
[23:35] <DasEi> YiamiYo: ls   , file there ? - no, didn't
[23:35] <Stereocaulon> DrGrov, well, if Oracle ever releases a Linux, it might be called just that.
[23:36] <DasEi> MichaelKohler: welcome
[23:36] <DrGrov> Stereocaulon: Yes, it is painful. The specs otherwise are brutal and working out perfectly well. Just an Ubuntu issue... I've read about it on the forum that others have experienced the same problems.
[23:36] <Jordan_U> MichaelKohler: You're welcome.
[23:36] <Stereocaulon> DrGrov, What hardware is acting up/ not well-supported in your box?
[23:36] <yggdrasil> how can i install an older kernel on my ubuntu ?
[23:37] <yggdrasil> the kernel from 9.04 ?
[23:37] <Stereocaulon> yggdrasil, you should be able to simply select it from Grub
[23:37] <yggdrasil> uh
[23:37] <yggdrasil> well grub wont see it if its not installed
[23:37] <DasEi> yggdrasil: why that ? well, can install and then point grub to boot it
[23:38] <DrGrov> Stereocaulon: I have an HP xw9300 Workstation with 2 AMD Opteron 64 @ 2.4GHz each (9.6GHz), 8GB RAM, 32GB SSD for root, 250GB 2,5" ultra fast hard drive, 1GB nVidia GTS250... That is the specs currently.
[23:38] <katzee> someone knows how to restore the default network manager panel icon?
[23:38] <Jordan_U> yggdrasil: You likely can't without things breaking (like X drivers requiring features of the newer kernel).
[23:38] <snake__> where do i change the settings of my port number and ip address for apache2?
[23:38] <yggdrasil> theres a driver for my twinahan ir remote control , the driver works fine in 9.04 but not in lucid. and im guessing that this is compiled into the old kernel.
[23:38] <Trea> what software would you guys recommend for streaming movies and such to my playstation?
[23:38] <jahbulon> DasEi: so i did install gparted and shows that all my HDD has just i partition /dev/sda1 file sistem .. boot....  +and 2.5 GB each swap=-linux and extended and
[23:38] <yggdrasil> as a .ko ?
[23:38] <Stereocaulon> DrGrov, Wow! sounds like you could start a forest fire if you run that one too long ;-)
[23:38] <yggdrasil> ok then i need to find the source for that kernel module and compile it on this kernel...
[23:38] <yggdrasil> ;(
[23:38] <DasEi> jahbulon: so there are your partitions ?
[23:39] <DrGrov> Stereocaulon: I am not exactly sure what is causing the problem but on the thread I was reading it seems like the problem is not a new one since others are also experiencing it but nevermind. I'm happy :)
[23:39] <YiamiYo> any idea on how to mount my cd? here is my /dev : http://pastebin.com/iVpMFVyi
[23:39] <DasEi> YiamiYo: ls   , file there ?
[23:39] <DasEi> YiamiYo: do a ls of your /dev
[23:39] <DrGrov> Stereocaulon: The only thing now I want is to upgrade to 16GB RAM but the cost is 1200 EUR to change all the 8 x 1GB to 8 x 2GB.
[23:39] <YiamiYo> i did
[23:39] <YiamiYo> DasEi, i did
[23:40] <DrGrov> Stereocaulon: No wonder my electricity bill with the wife is 55 EUR per month in average. I bet the darn computer is taking a huge cake of that sum LOL
[23:40] <Stereocaulon> DrGrov, Whoa, are you a video editor or do you plan to use this box to solve the next Fermat equation?
[23:40] <DasEi> YiamiYo: I just told you, enter mount (no parameters) to see if cd is mounted now, and the paste is ls -s
[23:40] <DasEi> ls -l
[23:40] <phap__> hi all
[23:40] <yggdrasil> does ubuntu compile drivers into the kernel ?
[23:40] <yggdrasil> or does it have kernel  modules for everything
[23:40] <Stereocaulon> yggdrasil, yes, lot's of them
[23:40] <yggdrasil> right
[23:40] <DrGrov> Stereocaulon: Nah, I just like to have the most baddest computer in the hood :) LOL
[23:41] <yggdrasil> so i need to tell it to not used the compiled module and create one from src then i think
[23:41] <DasEi> yggdrasil: mainly integrated (speed), but can use modules, still
[23:41] <YiamiYo> DasEi, it's not there
[23:41] <yggdrasil> right i guess ill have to look for the src for that module and make it
[23:41] <Ibis> Can someone help me with fixing/messing with the "Location bar", the gaps in between each folder? I'm using a theme that suppose to overlap the other, and instead of that happening, I'm getting these ugly eye-soring gaps. I can't seem to make my theme to appear exactly like this picture here: http://linuxmint-art.org/content/preview.php?preview=2&id=134416&file1=134416-1.jpg&file2=134416-2.jpg&file3=134416-3.jpg&name=Cadmium+OSX
[23:41] <DrGrov> Stereocaulon: Got it for 650 EUR from my dear cousin who thought he wanted to go for a better laptop. Then it happened so that he did not find anything and kind of regrets the selling :)
[23:41] <Stereocaulon> DrGrov, you probably have that one right now...Maybe the mobo has some chips that are not quite supported fully.
[23:41] <DasEi> YiamiYo: what is not where ?
[23:41] <yggdrasil> and then, figure out how to tell it to go with module instead of internal compiled moduel
[23:41] <Ibis> Notice, the location bar has no gaps in between.
[23:41] <Trea> Can anyone recommend what software i should use to stream stuff to my ps3?
[23:42] <Loshki> yggdrasil: which module, btw?
[23:42] <Stereocaulon> DrGrov, That's a sweet deal :-D
[23:42] <YiamiYo> DasEi, my cd is not mounted
[23:42] <yggdrasil> hid-twinhan ?
[23:42] <DasEi> yggdrasil: kernelcheck could be of your interest
[23:42] <DrGrov> Stereocaulon: Yes, that is my main concern. It has a huge amount of chips which are completely useless or so I would think.
[23:42] <YiamiYo> and sr0 is not in /dev
[23:42] <DrGrov> Stereocaulon: I am thinking that the SSD drive is probably also a reason for it acting up.
[23:42] <yggdrasil> hid_twinhan             2197  0
[23:42] <yggdrasil> hid                    67032  3 hid_twinhan,hid_logitech,usbhid
[23:42] <DasEi> YiamiYo: you set the cd dir , inserted a cd, mounted without error and now it's not there ?
[23:43] <ste> server oltreirc
[23:43] <Loshki> yggdrasil: sorry, dunno anything about it.  I see hits in google though...
[23:43] <DasEi> YiamiYo: which distro  ?
[23:43] <yggdrasil> right im looking at that, lots of problem reports but no fixes
[23:43] <DrGrov> Stereocaulon: Sure is since the 2 AMD Opteron 64 @ 2.4GHz cost about 250-280 EUR a piece about a year ago.
[23:43] <Hanibal> Hi! Is there any software that recognizes evil server access and blocks it? E.g. spambots crawling my websites for mail addresses, etc.?
[23:44] <Stereocaulon> DrGrov, it may have a poorly configured ventilation system. Overheating gives weird behaviour.
[23:44] <YiamiYo> DasEi, ubuntu 10.10
[23:44] <DrGrov> Stereocaulon: That will not be the case I predict...
[23:44] <YiamiYo> DasEi, 64 bit
[23:44] <DrGrov> Stereocaulon: I kind of looked into it when my cousin put it together and showed the ventilation system...
[23:44] <DasEi> YiamiYo: sudo apt-get install pastebinit hwinfo
[23:44] <DasEi> YiamiYo: sudo hwinfo | pastebinit
[23:45] <DrGrov> Stereocaulon: If I remember correctly it was a Nexus or Zalman fan.... A Nexus power source I think it had...
[23:45] <DrGrov> Stereocaulon: My cousin built it to have almost the best of the best pieces put together.
[23:45] <Stereocaulon> DrGrov, OK, you have a badass box, but that's not why you are here, you are trying to solve a problem...
[23:45] <ste>  server emulemorp
[23:45] <DrGrov> Stereocaulon: Yes, that is true
[23:45] <Stereocaulon> DrGrov, sounds really groovy though
[23:45] <DrGrov> Stereocaulon: Thanks :)
[23:46] <Chr|s> anyone here run TeamSpeak 3 on amd64 and able to get a headset working properly?
[23:46] <DrGrov> Stereocaulon: I think I will wait for 10.10 updating yet. I will need to find a viable solution for the backup taking first.
[23:46] <YiamiYo> DasEi, http://pastebin.com/nGHchhVX
[23:46] <DrGrov> Stereocaulon: I did not even think too much about backup since I thought it would go pretty easily but can never be sure though. Thanks for pointing that out.
[23:47] <katzee> someone knows how to restore the default network manager panel icon?
[23:47] <ste> join #esmeralda_aiuto_volontario
[23:47] <Stereocaulon> DrGrov, I use a remote VPS (Virtual Private Server) for the really important files that I made myself and an external HDD for the rest
[23:48] <Stereocaulon> katzee, just add it by right clicking on an empty space of the Gnome Panel and Select Network Manager from there
[23:48] <katzee> Stereocaulon: thought bout that, but i have not Network Manager in that list
[23:49] <Chr|s> I guess its going to be a long night trying to figure this out
[23:49] <DrGrov> Stereocaulon: Thanks for a good tip.
[23:50] <blackshirt> good morning all
[23:50] <Stereocaulon> DrGrov, I've been burned before by the lack of backup. And I made the proper preparations to avoid loosing data again.
[23:50] <yggdrasil> sweet looks like its jsut ong .32 kernel. so im gonna roll back to .31 and see if it makes a diff..
[23:50] <yggdrasil> bll
[23:50] <DrGrov> Stereocaulon: That is a really good thinking.
[23:50] <zerodowntime> anyone know much about linksys wrt54g routers?
[23:51] <DasEi> YiamiYo: is a very huge log, but for now can't find any cd in there , cable not attached ?!
[23:51] <DrGrov> Stereocaulon: Thanks for the help, I gotta go and play some nice games. Have some unfinished business.
[23:51] <Stereocaulon> DrGrov, happy gaming to you sir!
[23:51] <DrGrov> Stereocaulon: Thank you sir!
[23:51] <YiamiYo> DasEi, my drive is working...i used it to install ubuntu
[23:51] <DasEi> YiamiYo: try yourself to find the device in there, shall be in the laast third of that monster
[23:52] <Stereocaulon> blackshirt, good morning to you, how can we help?
[23:52] <RailsDeveloper> Anyone know how to enable a wireless adapter in
[23:52] <RailsDeveloper> ubuntu 10.10 usuing vbox
[23:52] <jahbulon> guyz i have a problem... when i installed my ubuntu .. i did not create any partition. now i need 1 to install win on it ...i can create now ...
[23:53] <YiamiYo> DasEi, the only thing i can find about cd is in line 1886
[23:53] <exitweb> jahbulon, try with live cd and gparted
[23:53] <Stereocaulon> jahbulon, just use gparted from a live CD to resize your partition and make room for an extra partition
[23:53] <zerodowntime> can anyone point me in the right direction here? I have a Linksys WRTG4G router that I am trying to get the port forwarding set up to point ssh to my desktop. SSH work locally between my netbook and desktop, but I want to access my desktop whenever I am away from home
[23:54] <jahbulon> 10x both i will try
[23:54] <zerodowntime> I am running Unbuntu 10.10 on both machines with openssh server
[23:54] <rodrigo__> you are install the ubuntu with other operacional system?
[23:54] <blackshirt> Stereocaulon: thank's..can you help me to disable SOAP on ubuntu ??
[23:54] <RailsDeveloper> Anyone know how to use a wireless adapter in ubuntu 10.10 using virtualbox?
[23:54] <lcojtpb> hi guys im trying to rip a movie on my laptop before i leave to iraq and im using acidrip it says mincoder interupted by user how can i fix this
[23:54] <DasEi> YiamiYo: there are some more entries the like, but the value-fields are empty, check /var/log/syslog for cdrom (use search funktion of gedit)
[23:55] <zerodowntime> I have already set up the router to allow for port forwardng but whenever I nmap my ip or try to access my machine via my ip connection is refused
[23:55] <DasEi> YiamiYo: hwinfo is like probing but nothing found (like a lost cable)
[23:55] <Stereocaulon> blackshirt, you mean the application communication protocol?
[23:56] <YiamiYo> DasEi, could find nothing about cdrom there
[23:56] <alex__> 201.76.239.56
[23:56] <YiamiYo> anyone else knows why my ubuntu 10.10 64 bit cannot mount my cd?this is my /dev: http://pastebin.com/iVpMFVyi
[23:57] <DasEi> YiamiYo: this is a fresh install with no private data ? I can look over ssh , if you don't mind
[23:57] <blackshirt> Stereocaulon: yes, soap on php
[23:57] <sudoer> i wanted to get your guys opinions, if I am going to store a list of numbers in a flat file, what do you think is the best way to store it, each number by line, or 1 line seperated by a comma, 2nd question, if i wanted to compare 2 files to see which numbers are in both, how would you recommend I do it?
[23:57] <YiamiYo> DasEi, cannot port forward right now...you can do it with teamviewer though
[23:57] <sudoer> speed is most important to me
[23:57] <Stereocaulon> blackshirt, no sorry, can't help you with that. You might try #php and #apache channels to get some more specific info on it
[23:58] <jahbulon> Stereocaulon: i don't have a live cd .. but i installed gparted and can't resize it
[23:58] <DasEi> sudoer: line - wise, and see man diff
[23:58] <Stereocaulon> jahbulon, that's because you cannot unmount the root of a running system
[23:58] <blackshirt> Stereocaulon: thank's for advice frends
[23:58] <Stereocaulon> blackshirt, good luck!
[23:58] <katzee> i cant believe it... i did hibernate -> turn on again and the network icon was on the panel. shut it down, on again and its gone again...
[23:58] <major_redhat> hey all, im having issues trying to install Java as root
[23:59] <jahbulon> Stereocaulon: so how can i do it ?
[23:59] <major_redhat> i keep getting an 'authentication failure' even though I know i'm typing in the correct password
[23:59] <shcherbak> sudoer: it depence, line is easier, csv tricky, blocks most fun
[23:59] <Stereocaulon> jahbulon, to upll this off you really *need* to have a live media (USB-Stick or Live CD) There is no other way.
[23:59] <DasEi> YiamiYo: d/l ing..
[23:59] <Stereocaulon> jahbulon, upll => pull
