| sudoer | shcherbak: blocks? | 00:00 |
| jahbulon | Stereocaulon, ok ... | 00:00 |
| shcherbak | sudoer: em, columns? | 00:00 |

| major_redhat | and all i want to do is be able to play minecraft on my linux machine and that would be super awesome | 00:00 |
| shcherbak | sudoer: so grep and diff and loop would be faster, but need awk | 00:01 |
| jahbulon | Stereocaulon thanks for infos | 00:01 |
| Stereocaulon | jahbulon, np | 00:01 |
| major_redhat | i don't know if it helps, but i'm running 10.04 64-bit | 00:01 |
| katzee | how is this possible? | 00:01 |
| DasEi | YiamiYo: pm you ? | 00:01 |
| YiamiYo | DasEi, sure | 00:02 |
| YiamiYo | DasEi, it says something about otr :s | 00:02 |
| major_redhat | any ideas? following the standalone instructions on the java website isnt going to help if i cant log in as root | 00:03 |
| zerodowntime | seriously, can anyone help me with this port forwarding issue I am having with openssh server, ubuntu 10.10, and a linksyse wrt54g router? i have already spent half a day trying to get this to work | 00:03 |
| major_redhat | zerodowntime: do you know the ip address of the router | 00:04 |
| Stereocaulon | major_redhat, You'll probably have to ditch the default Java and install Sun/ Oracle Java instead. | 00:04 |
| zerodowntime | yes i do and i have it all set up on the router | 00:04 |
| shcherbak | zerodowntime: DZM is option in WRT | 00:04 |
| major_redhat | Stereocaulon: i assume thats through the ubuntu software center? | 00:04 |
| SaMuRai | Welcom to >>>> http://salon-rhone-alpes.skyrock.com/ <<<< ;) | 00:04 |
| zerodowntime | problem is whenever i nmap my ip it does not show up as ssh open | 00:05 |
| lcojtpb | everytime i try to play a movie with movie player i get could not read from source how do i fix this? | 00:05 |
| zerodowntime | tried the dmz - same thing | 00:05 |
| shcherbak | zerodowntime: own firewall? | 00:05 |
| Stereocaulon | major_redhat, the ditching part..yes, you can do that through Software center, but I recommend Synaptic for this | 00:05 |
| shcherbak | zerodowntime: does nmap works in Lan? | 00:06 |
| zerodowntime | no firewall on the computer - i can ssh locally between a netbook via wireless to my desktop which is wired through my router | 00:06 |
| === desti_T2 is now known as desti | ||
| Stereocaulon | major_redhat, through Synaptic you can also install Sun/ Oracle Java, provided you have Universe enabled | 00:06 |
| zerodowntime | but i can not ssh outside the network | 00:06 |
| MichaelKohler | I've now tried to start SGD from a usb-stick, but I only get two options "default" and "list devices/partitions".. when I select one of them (doesn't matter which one) ", a message is displayed "automatic boot in 10 seconds.." counting down, after that the countdown begins again | 00:07 |
| major_redhat | Stereocaulon: synaptic is open, what entries am i looking for to filter | 00:07 |
| Stereocaulon | sun-java | 00:08 |
| Stereocaulon | major_redhat, sun-java | 00:08 |
| snake_ | does anyone know how to remote desktop another ubuntu computer? | 00:08 |
| major_redhat | Stereocaulon: thanks | 00:08 |
| Stereocaulon | major_redhat, np | 00:08 |
| shcherbak | zerodowntime: check Iptables, try to ssh/telnet router (set remote administration) | 00:08 |
| shcherbak | zerodowntime: (via pulic IP) | 00:09 |
| shcherbak | public | 00:09 |
| zerodowntime | so ssh works from 192.168.100 (desktop) and 192.168.104 (netbook) but if i try to ssh directly to my ip it says the connection is refused. i set up the router to portforward 22-22 to 192.168.1.100 but it says the connection is refused. if i nmap the local ip ssh is open but the external ip shows nothing | 00:09 |
| Stereocaulon | snake__, just enable Preferences => Remote Access => Enable Other users to view your desktop/ Use your desktop | 00:10 |
| MichaelKohler | bad internet connection, sorry | 00:10 |
| snake_ | Stereocaulon, thanks | 00:10 |
| Stereocaulon | snake_, remember to disable visual desktop effects on the target computer, or your VNC session won't work | 00:11 |
| echoecho | Hello! I am trying to upgrade subversion to 1.6, but when I run "apt-get update" and similar it seems the latest in the Ubuntu repository is 1.4. How can I add 1.6 to my sources? Do I need to look for unstable? | 00:11 |
| shcherbak | zerodowntime: try to check if router is accesable from public (not lan) side, best to set remote admin. That | 00:11 |
| Stereocaulon | echoecho, use a PPA for subversion if you want a higher version, or compile it yourself | 00:12 |
| echoecho | What's a PPA? | 00:12 |
| major_redhat | Stereocaulon: anything specific i should mark for installation? im using 64bit linux | 00:12 |
| Stereocaulon | !ppa | echoecho | 00:12 |
| ubottu | echoecho: A Personal Package Archive (PPA) can provide alternate software not normally available in the offical Ubuntu repositories - Looking for a PPA? See https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+ppas - WARNING: PPAs are unsupported third-party packages, and should be used at your own risk. | 00:12 |
| echoecho | Ah, gotcha. Why is 1.4 the latest in the repositories? Hasn't 1.6 been out for like a year? | 00:13 |
| jihedamine | anyone knows an applet to easily access documents ? (bookmark...) | 00:13 |
| zerodowntime | so i set iptables to iptables -A INPUT -p tcp --dport ssh -j ACCEPT | 00:13 |
| Stereocaulon | major_redhat, I'm also using 64-bit Linux just use sun-java and you'll probably need Java3D as well, don't know if that's is in the repo's though | 00:13 |
| jihedamine | (a gnome applet) | 00:13 |
| major_redhat | ah ok | 00:13 |
| Stereocaulon | echoecho, the Ubuntu release team requires a lot of testing, before any version can be included in the main package source. That's why it takes a while, sometimes it might not come out until the next release of Ubuntu | 00:15 |
| zerodowntime | output is ACCEPT tcp -- anywhere anywhere tcp dpt:ssh but still not able to ssh outside of external ip | 00:15 |
| echoecho | Stereocaulon: Gotcha. No problem as long as I have an option. How can I migrate from an typical "apt-get" install to a "PPA" install? Do I have to disable one? | 00:15 |
| BonSequitur | Okay, quick question. I installed Xubuntu, but I want to have a Gnome environment installed as well. However, apt-get install gnome depends on both swfdec-mozilla and epiphany-extensions, which of course are mutually exclusive. | 00:16 |
| Stereocaulon | echoecho, you don't have to "migrate", just include the PPA in your sources, if it exists on Launchpad | 00:16 |
| shcherbak | zerodowntime: yes, but have you tried to hook up to dls with on router? | 00:16 |
| shcherbak | *DSL* | 00:16 |
| echoecho | Stereocaulon: so if I just include a PPA of subversion and say "apt-get update && ... upgrade" it will grab either the PPA or the official, whichever is newer? | 00:16 |
| Stereocaulon | echoecho, https://launchpad.net/~anders-kaseorg/+archive/subversion-1.6 | 00:17 |
| Stereocaulon | echoecho, try at *your own* risk | 00:17 |
| echoecho | Stereocaulon: fair enough :) | 00:17 |
| Stereocaulon | echoecho, yes, that is correct, the PPA will override the normal version | 00:17 |
| Stereocaulon | echoecho, no guarantees that this new version will play nice with available frontends. Another thing is that this package might require different libraries that may conflict with other packages. | 00:19 |
| echoecho | Stereocaulon: gotcha. I will try this on a dev machine before live. | 00:19 |
| Stereocaulon | echoecho, smart move ;-) | 00:19 |

| Jordan_U | MichaelKohler: How did you create the USB stick? | 00:23 |
| MichaelKohler | Jordan_U: using UNetBootin | 00:24 |
| Jordan_U | MichaelKohler: Unetbootin doesn't work with Super GRUB2 Disk. | 00:24 |
| MichaelKohler | oh | 00:25 |
| MichaelKohler | does the Startup Disk Creator work? | 00:25 |
| Jordan_U | MichaelKohler: Unfortunately no, you need to use the terminal based utility "dd" to make a bootable USB with Super GRUB2 Disk. | 00:26 |
| MichaelKohler | Jordan_U: could you tell me how to do so or do I need to google it myself? :) | 00:27 |
| DasEi | MichaelKohler: unebootin works fine too | 00:27 |
| Jordan_U | MichaelKohler: I will tell you :) | 00:27 |

| Keith-BlindUser | I'm wondering how to get USB microphones working under Ubuntu? I'm not sure if the USb microphone name can easily be discovered so that you can just set the volume of that device with amixer or osmething, but that would be cool if I could figure out how to get that working. | 00:28 |
| Jordan_U | MichaelKohler: Do you have any data on the USB drive that you want to keep? | 00:28 |
| DasEi | Jordan_U: sure dd does the trick ? I succesfully did (unetbootin/sdg2) | 00:28 |
| MichaelKohler | Jordan_U: no | 00:28 |
| katzee | i cant restore the network monitor icon on the notification area | 00:29 |
| Jordan_U | DasEi: I'm sure dd works. Last time I tried unetbootin it didn't work (and I didn't expect it to). Did you test all of the menu entries? | 00:29 |
| katzee | it disappeared installing Wicd | 00:29 |
| DasEi | Jordan_U: yes, but it was a version smaller then the newest 1.2 or such | 00:30 |
| Jordan_U | DasEi: I'm the developer of Super GRUB2 Disk so if unetbootin now works I'd like to advertise that in the documentation :) | 00:30 |
| DasEi | Jordan_U: I will verify and call you back :) | 00:30 |
| hiexpo | katzee, you have to reinstall networlk manager than because wicd reokaced it | 00:30 |

| marsfligth | I mean *.kar files | 00:37 |
| Jordan_U | MichaelKohler: Ok. Be *absolutely sure* that is your USB drive, as we are going to whipe whatever drive you select when we write SG2D to it. | 00:37 |

| Vadtec | DasEi: its rather weird...when i ran CentOS, i never had a problem with dhcp | 00:38 |
| DasEi | Vadtec: try sudo pppoeconf | 00:38 |
| Vadtec | DasEi: does ubuntu require dhcpserver to be installed along side dhcpclient to fully use dhcp? | 00:38 |
| DasEi | Vadtec: no | 00:39 |
| DasEi | Vadtec: but a modem itself provides no dhcp, it get's the adress from provider | 00:39 |
| Jordan_U | MichaelKohler: Run "sudo umount /dev/sb1" to be sure there isn't a mounted partition on that drive then run "sudo dd if=/path/to/super_grub_disk_hybrid-1.98s1.iso of=/dev/sdb". Note that it's "sdb" that you want to write to and *not* "sdb1". | 00:39 |

| al_nz1 | i like the new version but how do I turn off locking the desktop every ten or so minutes of inactivity? | 00:45 |

| toonacid | ivanoats: Find which one is ntfs. | 00:46 |
| Jordan_U | MichaelKohler: Did you reboot with the USB in or did you remove the USB drive while you were still booted? If you removed the USB drive it may not have actually written anything to the drive by the time you removed it. | 00:46 |
| Vadtec | DasEi: i have eth0 setup to use DHCP, just like this windows laptop | 00:46 |

| Jordan_U | MichaelKohler: Try doing it again but run "sync" afterward and "eject" the device via nautilus before unplugging it. | 00:49 |
| Dulak | Vadtec: did you power cycle the cable modem since you switched things around? cable modem's cache the mac address from the connected nic for efficiency, whenever you change you have to reboot the modem to make it forget this info | 00:49 |
| DasEi | Vadtec: so dhcp is the way t o go | 00:49 |
| Vadtec | Dulak: at least once, but ill give it a try again | 00:49 |
| Jordan_U | DasEi: I don't understand what you meant by "loop boot confirmed, no avail on latest sdg via unetbootin". | 00:49 |

| Vadtec | DasEi: yeah | 00:50 |
| Vadtec | DasEi: yes | 00:50 |
| Vadtec | DasEi: eth0 is the wan side, eth1 is the lan side | 00:50 |
| Dulak | Vadtec: do you have link green on the modem and the nic it's plugged to? | 00:50 |
| Vadtec | Dulak: id have to flog my self if i didnt :P | 00:50 |
| DasEi | Jordan_U:you where right, unetbootin doesn't work no more with latest sdg2, it jumps back to start after 10 secsãutoboot | 00:50 |
| Dulak | Vadtec: just covering all bases here, it should just work with cable, you dhcp and it should get a public ip assigned | 00:51 |
| DasEi | Vadtec: de-configure eth2 in /etc/network/interfaces | 00:51 |
| DasEi | Vadtec: comment that block out (#) | 00:51 |
| Vadtec | DasEi: to what effect? | 00:52 |
| Vadtec | DasEi: you mean eth1? | 00:52 |
| Vadtec | DasEi: its statically configured | 00:52 |
| Vadtec | DasEi: and its not even hooked up to the switch atm | 00:52 |
| DasEi | Vadtec: so one can take down and up the nic manually, eth1 o'course | 00:52 |
| DasEi | Vadtec: switch would be handy, as of no jump around | 00:53 |

| cyphase | i thought mayb there was some way to dig into nautilus metafiles or something | 00:55 |
| Jordan_U | MichaelKohler: Since it's a hybrid CD/USB image to mount it you would actually run "sudo mount /dev/sdb /mnt/" rather than sdb1. | 00:55 |
| cyphase | maybe* | 00:55 |

| DasEi | cyphase: what does gone bad mean ? no more upspin ? | 00:56 |
| katzee | ok, i can say it's impossible to restore that icon | 00:57 |
| katzee | i tried everything but the OS reinstall | 00:57 |
| BonSequitur | Okay, so this one is really weird. I have a Synaptics touchpad configured for true multitouch. Under XFCE, it works perfectly - double-tap middleclicks, that is. However, when I log into a regular Ubuntu desktop session, Gnome seems to gratuitously mess with my settings. | 00:57 |
| cyphase | DasEi, it spins up, but it won't even show up in /dev. apparently it has to many reallocated sectors, thought i dont know why im not able to at least read it | 00:57 |
| Jordan_U | MichaelKohler: What happened when you tried to boot from it? Can you mount it now (using sdb instead of sdb1)? | 00:57 |
| tester | ut oh the Xubuntu 10.10 put me in here by default. Should I ask my question in #xubuntu ??? | 00:57 |
| MichaelKohler | Jordan_U: it just didn't do anything (and kept restarting) and yes, I can mount it now | 00:58 |
| DasEi | cyphase: tried to fsck the UNmounted drive ? does fdisk -l see it ? | 00:58 |
| BonSequitur | As a result, the touchpad now slavishly obeys the 'mouse' settings, but also double-tap now right clicks. This is undesirable, but an option for that is annoyingly not actually implemented on the mouse settings applet or in gpointing-devices. | 00:58 |

Basically, every once in a while my system cpu usage jumps to 100% although no user programs are straining the cpu at all. I have an i7 920 and plenty of free ram. This normally lasts a few minutes and the computer is completely unusable during this time. Also, it seems that there is increased network usage during this period. I have a sneaking su | 00:58 |
| fiber | spicion that it is pulseaudio that is causing the problem simply because it is also messing up with other things (vlc can't play sound most of the time for example) | 00:58 |

| cyphase | DasEi, reallocated sectors are at the drive level, and like i said, it wont even show up in /dev. when the computer is booting up it keeps spitting out ata errors | 00:58 |
| DasEi | cyphase: does fdisk -l see it ? | 00:59 |

| yxz97 | Hello | 01:16 |
| yxz97 | does anyone here is official support? | 01:16 |
| yxz97 | well i have a simple request | 01:16 |
| Ycarene | Is there a reason that they took away the ability to change the gdm login theme? | 01:16 |
| DasEi | !ask | yxz97 | 01:16 |
| ubottu | yxz97: Please don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line and in the channel, so that others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) | 01:16 |
| andreyka | DasEi: I'm searching for default ubuntu theme, not other themes. And there is nothing similar on that sites. | 01:17 |
| yxz97 | why the hell is not the torrent for version 10.10 here http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/downloadmirrors#dvd | 01:17 |
| yxz97 | DasEi, wasn¿t necesary | 01:17 |
| DasEi | yxz97: which torrent exactly 10.10 dvd 32 or 64 ? | 01:18 |
| angelnetbook_ | hello | 01:18 |
| snow_ru | hmm I always has the problem of : missing something.sty and want to use ubuntu apt-get install to install the package. But Is there anyway to search for the dev package name given the sty file missing ? | 01:18 |
| yxz97 | both | 01:18 |
| yxz97 | DasEi, both | 01:18 |
| WALoeIII | can I get aptitude to download a .deb for a different architecture | 01:18 |
| snow_ru | both what ? | 01:19 |
| DasEi | yxz97: http://mirror.anl.gov/pub/ubuntu-iso/DVDs/ubuntu/10.10/release/ | 01:19 |
| Ycarene | I really want to change how my login screen looks, how do I do that? | 01:19 |
| rww | yxz97: Erm, it is. That page links to mirrors like (once you select version) http://mirror.mcs.anl.gov/pub/ubuntu-iso/DVDs/ubuntu/10.10/release/ , which have .torrent links | 01:19 |
| Jordan_U | yxz97: Please watch your language. There are torrent links on all of the mirrors linked to on that page. | 01:19 |

| DasEi | yxz97: so welcome to ubu-sky | 01:20 |
| yxz97 | where the ubuntu roadmap? | 01:20 |
| Vadtec | DasEi: power cycle didnt even help | 01:20 |
| yxz97 | ubu-sky? DasEi what the hell is that ? | 01:20 |
| Vadtec | DasEi: i can see the bootp requests in tcpdump, but i do not see a response from the modem at all | 01:21 |
| DasEi | yxz97: was a reaction to hell; google milestone natty | 01:21 |
| Vadtec | DasEi: i see 0.0.0.0.bootpc > 255.255.255.255.bootps, but there is no return... | 01:21 |
| DasEi | (roadmap) | 01:21 |
| Vadtec | DasEi: yet I see proper dhcp flows on this windows laptop when i connect it up | 01:22 |
| enthdegree | Does anyone have experience with Xfbdev? | 01:22 |
| yxz97 | My distro has no moe support hell | 01:22 |
| rww | yxz97: I don't know if there's a language barrier here, but adding "hell" to random sentences isn't necessary or nice. | 01:22 |
| yxz97 | I hate this but I will have to update my OS again all.. | 01:22 |
| mkanyicy | enthdegree, no | 01:22 |
| Ycarene | I'm going to go out on a limb and say that you can no longer change your gdm theme. | 01:22 |
| yxz97 | rww, I don't know if there is a language missunderstaning with you, but I said hell just because... | 01:22 |
| DasEi | Vadtec: I wasn't fast enough, I wanted you to comment interfaces to then try sudo ifdown eth1 && sudo ifup eth1 inet dhcp | 01:22 |
| enthdegree | seriously. :P X stuff really badly documented | 01:23 |
| enthdegree | thanks anywhoo | 01:23 |
| enthdegree | *how | 01:23 |
| yxz97 | rww, just because ..... | 01:23 |
| * yxz97 hummm | 01:23 | |
| yxz97 | rww, without intention at alll... | 01:23 |
| yxz97 | I mean, is this kind of church? | 01:23 |
| rww | yxz97: Then don't. It's making your attitude seem problematic :( | 01:23 |
| yxz97 | rww, why? | 01:24 |
| DancingAnna | Attempting to boot ubuntu into a single user mode... init 2 doesn't seem to do it. Anyone know what I should use? | 01:24 |
| yxz97 | I seem problematic? rww nahh | 01:24 |
| yxz97 | you need chillout rww | 01:24 |
| yxz97 | hahahaaha | 01:24 |
| DasEi | yxz97: just keep on a friendly, technically oriented level | 01:24 |
| Jordan_U | DancingAnna: Hold shift during boot and select "recovery mode" or run "init 1". | 01:25 |
| yxz97 | rww, your semantic is not my aim ;-) | 01:25 |
| yxz97 | DasEi, ok, just like here is very, very military.. seems to me | 01:25 |
| jmichaelx | is there a way to get vdpau working with apps that use gstreamer as their backend? for example, i would like to be able to play HD videos in Miro, but without vdpau, this doesn't go too well. | 01:25 |
| Dulak | There are rules, they are enforced. If that's a problem, don't participate. | 01:26 |
| yxz97 | Dulak, ok | 01:26 |
| mkanyicy | yxz97, how can we help you? | 01:26 |
| yxz97 | Y go then | 01:26 |
| rww | yxz97: being polite isn't unreasonable. | 01:26 |
| yxz97 | I go | 01:26 |
| yxz97 | were there is free to speak! | 01:26 |
| DasEi | yxz97: not really, but as supporting can be nervy as having computer-issues, a more lighten up approach is nicer | 01:26 |
| rww | meh | 01:26 |
| yxz97 | rww, L | 01:27 |
| Vadtec | DasEi: configuring eth1 for dhcp is pointless, its not hooked up to the modem, nor is it supposed to be | 01:27 |
| * yxz97 lol | 01:27 | |
| Vadtec | DasEi: besides, ive tried using eth1 to connect to the modem, i get the same results as with eth0 | 01:27 |
| n0a1ias | ?join #backtrack-linux | 01:27 |
| yxz97 | DasEi, yeah, I know what a nerve rww right? | 01:28 |
| DasEi | Vadtec: eth0 is wan, you said so wan0 | 01:28 |
| DasEi | yxz97: just keep on a friendly, technically oriented level | 01:28 |
| jmichaelx | n0a1ias: s/?/\// | 01:28 |
| yxz97 | DasEi, ok | 01:28 |
| DancingAnna | Jordan_U Thanks... most linux seems to use init 2 for single user... know why ubuntu does it differently? Would it cause any problems if I altered the init scripts to make init 5 the normal runlevel? | 01:28 |
| Vadtec | DasEi: my setup is this, modem <-> eth0 <-> ubuntu <-> eth1 <-> lan (at least that is what i am aiming for) | 01:29 |
| yxz97 | DasEi, no trolling? | 01:29 |
| * yxz97 hahaha | 01:29 | |
| Dulak | DancingAnna: what distro uses runlevel 2 for single user? Never, ever, ever seen that, in 15 years of using linux. | 01:29 |
| yxz97 | my first question was a bit weird, but I found the page that look more official to me | 01:30 |
| yxz97 | http://releases.ubuntu.com/10.10/ | 01:30 |
| yxz97 | at first | 01:30 |
| Jordan_U | DancingAnna: In traditional SYSV init, runlevel 2 is single user mode with networking (init 1 is single user mode without networking, and is what most people mean if they just say "single user mode). | 01:30 |
| yxz97 | hehe | 01:30 |
| Dulak | DancingAnna: runlevel 1 is single-user, on every unix, ever. | 01:30 |
| yxz97 | ok thanks anyway, your your time | 01:30 |
| Vadtec | DasEi: ill call my ISP in a bit, maybe this modem is being lame or they dont like the mac of my eth0 NIC | 01:30 |
| DasEi | Vadtec: ah, so what was that wan info about ? so that procedure (no mention in interfaces, manaually take eth0 up down n up) was the advice then | 01:30 |
| yxz97 | what is the most valuable here is the time... remember | 01:30 |
| Vadtec | DasEi: thanks for the help though, if worse comes to worse, i have a crappy linksys i can hook up so i can get my linux back online | 01:31 |
| DasEi | Vadtec: if it works on other machines, you should be able to work it out | 01:31 |
| yxz97 | why https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LucidLynx is supported until 2013 | 01:31 |
| yxz97 | and 10.10 until 2012 | 01:31 |
| firewaterburnz | I feel that I am very close to having my Tl-wn321g wirless usb connection functioning, I have done make install to create the rt73 driver, blacklisted conflicting drivers, when I (lsmod) the rt73 module is running, but when I (sudo ifconfig ralan0 up) I get ERROR while getting interface flags: No such device. Can anyone provide any guidance please | 01:31 |
| Vadtec | DasEi: yeah, this isnt my first go at dchp on linux, just my first go with ubuntu | 01:31 |
| rww | yxz97: because 10.04 is a Long Term Support release | 01:31 |
| rww | !lts | 01:31 |
| ubottu | LTS means Long Term Support. LTS versions of Ubuntu will be supported for 3 years on the desktop, and 5 years on the server. The current LTS version of Ubuntu is !Lucid (Lucid Lynx 10.04) | 01:31 |
| yxz97 | if 10.10 is newest than the other? | 01:31 |
| Dulak | Vadtec: you can put openwrt on a linksys router, with QOS and everything. I have a pair I use and it's solid. | 01:32 |
| Jordan_U | DancingAnna: Ubuntu uses upstart which doesn't really have a concept of runlevels, so anything above 1 (except 6) boots the full system. | 01:32 |
| yxz97 | what makes a version to be choose as LTS version? | 01:32 |
| yxz97 | what makes a version to be choose as LTS version? rww | 01:32 |
| Vadtec | Dulak: sadly, not my linksys...its a rev 3, which cant be flashed | 01:32 |
| * Vadtec sighs | 01:32 | |
| yxz97 | a kernel stuff? rww | 01:32 |
| DasEi | Vadtec: maybe boot a live cd and then check ifconfig, to see how it connects | 01:32 |
| yxz97 | rww, are you engineer or just programmer? | 01:32 |
| firewaterburnz | lsusb does recongnize device Bus 001 Device 002: ID 148f:2070 Ralink Technology, Corp. RT2070 Wireless Adapter | 01:32 |
| rww | yxz97: 6.06, 8.04, and 10.04 are LTSes. They're generally spaced every two years. | 01:32 |
| Vadtec | DasEi: yeah, gotta find my live cd :P | 01:33 |
| Vadtec | afk peeps, supper time | 01:33 |
| Dulak | Vadtec: ?? v 3.1 is what I use and they are flashable, it's v 5+ that is a problem and you can still run ddwrt-micro on those even still | 01:33 |
| Vadtec | thanks again for the help | 01:33 |
| DasEi | Dulak : nick-miss ?! | 01:33 |
| yxz97 | ahah interesting how the tech go | 01:33 |
| yxz97 | right | 01:33 |
| DasEi | Dulak: no, fine | 01:34 |
| yxz97 | I remember when redhat was the leader | 01:34 |
| yxz97 | and now is ubuntu | 01:34 |
| yxz97 | hahahahahaha | 01:34 |
| DasEi | !ot | 01:34 |
| ubottu | #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, for all Ubuntu-related support questions. Please use #ubuntu-offtopic for other topics (though our !guidelines apply there too). Thanks! | 01:34 |
| yxz97 | DasEi, want me to go? | 01:34 |

| maco | oh dang... | 01:40 |
| DasEi | YiamiYo: ah, so no win7 on the raid ones | 01:40 |
| jmichaelx | we are in need of some serious troll filtering atm | 01:40 |
| yxz97 | con-man, is a troll! | 01:40 |
| YiamiYo | win7 is on the raid0...it's loader isn't | 01:40 |
| con-man | actually I'm a long time linux user who frequents this channel and both gives and receives support | 01:40 |
| Pici | jmichaelx: Its already been taken care of. | 01:40 |
| maco | jmichaelx: the spammy flooder was removed from the server | 01:40 |
| Flannel | yxz97: Stop that. | 01:40 |
| Chr|s | ehh gets everyones attention | 01:40 |
| maco | con-man: then you should know better than to flood the channel with one letter per line | 01:40 |
| yxz97 | mkanyicy, how does that work internally | 01:41 |
| con-man | maco, no ones perfect :( | 01:41 |
| histo | What's with all the trolls tonight? | 01:41 |
| Chr|s | I guess its going to be a long night trying to figure this out... anyone here run TeamSpeak 3 on amd64 computer? | 01:41 |
| yxz97 | tell me the story :-) | 01:41 |
| mkanyicy | yxz97, what? | 01:41 |
| jmichaelx | histo: exactly what i was wondering. | 01:41 |
| cheby | histo: someone blew up their bridge | 01:41 |

| ubottu | rooks, please see my private message | 01:41 |
| histo | Chr|s: I do | 01:41 |
| yxz97 | mkanyicy, yeah, I mean is better do a format of my hard drive because old files can be remove saving hard drive space maybe?? is that a possibility? | 01:41 |
| DasEi | YiamiYo: win7 is on the raid, you boot from the single drive ? how is the raid set up, fake(hard) raid or software raid ? | 01:42 |
| histo | Chr|s: what sort of problems are you having with teamviewer? | 01:42 |
| DancingAnna | Jordan_U Thanks again :) I'm still just learning stuff here. My class notes said that 2 was supposed to be commandline without starting the full system, and I was wondering why ubuntu didn't do that. | 01:42 |
| aarcane | what is the point of that kind of spam? they're not even advertising a product.. | 01:42 |
| yxz97 | mkanyicy, or an upgrade does this? | 01:42 |
| rww | aarcane: They enjoy being disruptive. Comment about it furthers that goal :( | 01:42 |
| cheby | aarcane: to make you ask questions | 01:43 |
| yxz97 | mkanyicy, the upgrade also upgrades my kernel and drivers? | 01:43 |
| Chr|s | histo: everything works fine except the mic, I talk into it, it goes through, but its not understandable. Very laggy choppy sounding | 01:43 |
| YiamiYo | my raid is fake (i think) and i have installed ubuntu + win7 on it...the other hdd has ubuntu + windows loader...my pc starts from the raid0 mbr where is grub2 | 01:43 |
| mkanyicy | yxz97, yes it does | 01:43 |
| yxz97 | mkanyicy, and my question about saving hard drive space? | 01:43 |
| Chr|s | histo: oh wait, its TeamSpeak not Team Veiwer :) | 01:43 |
| Jordan_U | DancingAnna: You're welcome. | 01:43 |
| yxz97 | my HDD is small in capacity | 01:43 |
| yxz97 | :( | 01:43 |
| histo | Chr|s: I use teamspeak as well | 01:43 |
| mkanyicy | yxz97, then do a clean install then | 01:44 |
| yxz97 | mkanyicy, how? | 01:44 |
| aarcane | yxz97, I had that problem before too, but then I got a magic e-mail that changed my life. | 01:44 |
| mkanyicy | yxz97, insert a live cd and install from it | 01:44 |
| yxz97 | aarcane, is a troll! | 01:44 |
| Chr|s | histo: alright, are you using TeamSpeak 3 on amd64 computer? | 01:44 |
| yxz97 | aarcane, email? wtf, Jesus | 01:44 |
| histo | Chr|s: yes | 01:44 |
| yxz97 | !!trol | 01:44 |
| Pici | yxz97: I believe you were asked to stop doing that. | 01:44 |
| jmichaelx | aarcane: that was classic | 01:44 |
| aarcane | thank you, jmichaelx. | 01:45 |
| jmichaelx | yw | 01:45 |
| Dulak | if you want a really small version of ubuntu in terms of hdd space, have a look at lubuntu | 01:45 |
| DasEi | YiamiYo: so you created a softraid at setup in both, win7 and ubuntu at install ? or did you use the mobo's tool to set up raid before so the installers would just find md0 ? | 01:45 |
| Chr|s | histo: how did you you get your headset to work with it? my mic doesn't work clearly | 01:45 |
| yxz97 | Pici, don't believe its a fact! | 01:45 |

| DasEi | . | 01:46 |
| YiamiYo | DasEi, i used mobo's tool...but my grub still sees it as 2 drives with no partitions...it only looked ok at ubuntu installation | 01:46 |
| Chr|s | histo: I tried every option in the sound preferences | 01:46 |
| yxz97 | Flannel, ok sorry | 01:46 |
| mkanyicy | yxz97, lol | 01:46 |
| histo | Chr|s: I noticed on my pc I had to mics listed for input and had to select the seconnd one. You should see the little leds light up as you talk. Also check alsamixer and make sure nothing is muted. | 01:46 |
| DasEi | YiamiYo: so, and now you want to have the single drive as option in grub, too ? | 01:47 |
| n0a1ias | jmichaelx, what? i meant a / but i hit shift by mistake | 01:47 |
| yxz97 | mkanyicy, hey you | 01:47 |
| yxz97 | mkanyicy, did answer my question | 01:47 |
| Dulak | DasEi: umm not sure what that has to do with my point, but thanks for making the bot private message me, yer a real pal. | 01:47 |
| YiamiYo | i can boot from the singles drive ubuntu...but it does not boot windows 7 | 01:47 |
| Chr|s | histo: ok, I checked alsamixer, nothing was muted earlier | 01:47 |
| jmichaelx | n0a1ias: yes, that is all i was trying to tell you | 01:47 |
| yxz97 | aarcane, wtf, magic email? | 01:47 |
| YiamiYo | you can check my grub.cfg and see if everything is how it should be: http://pastebin.com/7iKUs996 | 01:47 |
| DasEi | Dulak: in terms of small hd-space | 01:47 |
| yxz97 | aarcane, speak quick or dieee! | 01:47 |
| n0a1ias | ok, sorry jmichaelx | 01:47 |
| Pici | yxz97: He was making a joke, just ignore it. | 01:48 |
| Chr|s | histo: when I talk, the input lvl moves like it is suppose too | 01:48 |
| aarcane | yxz97, it was a joke, but I really do get e-mails from newegg with cheap prices on large hard-drives. try one of those. | 01:48 |
| mkanyicy | yxz97, keep your language clean please, this is a family-friendly channel | 01:48 |
| Dulak | DasEi: the minimal iso still installs like 2g of stuff though, it's only small to download the iso, not what actually gets installed | 01:48 |
| aarcane | ubuntu server is only a few hundred mb by default. | 01:48 |
| maco | yxz97: microcenter sends out those emails too. $60 for a 1TB drive lately | 01:49 |
| Pici | Dulak: No it doesn't, it installs only a base system. cli only. | 01:49 |
| Jordan_U | Dulak: You can choose to install only a base system. | 01:49 |
| Dulak | Ahhh ok I get it now. | 01:49 |
| DasEi | Dulak: nah, expert install really drags it down | 01:49 |
| yxz97 | aarcane, I just bough a computer, and ihave no more oney | 01:49 |
| yxz97 | money to buy, but is a possibility I first need make sure if I can get one for this computer..... | 01:49 |
| yxz97 | the model... | 01:49 |
| Flannel | Dulak, DasEi: the minimal (and Alternate CD) install a standard install by default, but you can install a GUI-less system as well, from either of them (they're the same installer, one just includes packags on the CD, the other requires their download during install) | 01:49 |
| aarcane | yxz97, if that's true than you have more drive space than you're admitting. I haven't seen anything for sale with less than 250GB. | 01:49 |
| DasEi | YiamiYo: teamview again ? | 01:50 |
| yxz97 | I have 120G aarcane | 01:50 |
| yxz97 | :P aarcane | 01:50 |
| maco | aarcane: not necessarily. my 5 months old laptop has only 16GB, but it's an SSD | 01:50 |
| Pici | Flannel: I didn't think that the alternate CD gave you any package selection options.. | 01:50 |
| aarcane | yxz97, then you've got enough for ubuntu. quit wining and go install. | 01:50 |
| maco | Pici: there's an option to use aptitude's gui | 01:50 |
| maco | Pici: i think | 01:50 |
| maco | er...tui | 01:50 |
| Pici | maco: yeah, maybe | 01:50 |
| Flannel | Pici: If you go into expert mode it does, yeah. But even without that, you can do the gui-less install ("install a command line system" | 01:50 |
| yxz97 | may I make an observation? | 01:51 |
| Flannel | yxz97: If it's offtopic, please make it in #ubuntu-offtopic. This is a support channel. | 01:51 |
| jmichaelx | is there a way to get vdpau working with apps that use gstreamer as their backend? for example, i would like to be able to play HD videos in Miro, but without vdpau, this doesn't go too well. | 01:51 |
| yxz97 | Flannel, yes sorry again | 01:51 |
| Dulak | I have a 120g machine running lucid and windows xp, not sure what your issue is my ubuntu takes like 3g with a ton of packages installed, and windows runs fine in 30g of space with several big games installed. | 01:51 |
| yxz97 | how make I clean install | 01:51 |
| yxz97 | formatting my hard drive? | 01:52 |
| aarcane | I have a ubuntu on an 8 gig ssd, it works fine. | 01:52 |
| jmichaelx | aarcane: dell mini-9? | 01:52 |
| Pici | yxz97: Yes, but its really not necessary for upgrading Ubuntu. | 01:52 |

| ubottu | Dulak: As you can see, this is a large channel. If you're speaking to someone in particular, please put their nickname in what you say (use !tab), or else messages get lost and it becomes confusing :) | 01:54 |
| jmichaelx | aarcane: i also have ubuntu on an 8GB ssd, but on a mini 9... i do always wish however, that I had ordered the 16GB drive | 01:54 |
| histo | jmichaelx: I believe you have to use the nvidia drivers from their site or the current ones for vdpau | 01:55 |
| histo | jmichaelx: I used to use it for folding but haven't played with it for a while | 01:55 |
| aarcane | jmichaelx, you can buy an upgraded one from runcore, I believe. | 01:55 |
| histo | aarcane: why would you uby a driver? | 01:56 |
| jmichaelx | histo: i do have nvidia-current installed from the maverick repos. do you really think vdpau would work better with gstreamer apps if i installed the most recent drivers from the nvidia site? | 01:56 |
| Dulak | histo: if I mean something to be addressed to someone in particular, I use their name | 01:56 |
| dstar | I'm trying to install linux-backport-modules-wireless-maverick-generic, but I can't -- it depends on linux-backports-modules-wireless-2.6.35-23-generic which doesn't seem to exist! | 01:56 |
| dstar | Anyone seen this before? | 01:56 |
| hceasy | uhhh | 01:56 |
| histo | jmichaelx: if it's not working with current. I would try the ones from nvidia.com. I'm sure there is information on the forums about vdpau | 01:56 |
| litropy | Hi, peeps. How do I check what user group my usb device is? | 01:57 |
| jmichaelx | aarcane: i have thought about upgrading it... but right now i'm thinking i'd rather save up for a newer dual-core atom netbook, possibly with an ION gpu | 01:57 |
| histo | !info linux-backports-modules-wireless-2.6.35-23-generic | 01:57 |
| ubottu | Package linux-backports-modules-wireless-2.6.35-23-generic does not exist in maverick | 01:57 |
| Chr|s | histo: im not sure whats going on, hear everyone fine, but they say im cutting o ut, I went through sound preferences and checked everything out | 01:57 |
| jmichaelx | histo: i have consulted the forums for info on this, and have not yet come up with anything. | 01:57 |
| zulgaban | hi | 01:57 |
| histo | Chr|s: they can hear you but your cut out? Then I would adjust your levels | 01:58 |
| histo | jmichaelx: google maybe? | 01:58 |
| aarcane | jmichaelx, my friend shirin just got an awsome asus system with nvidia ion. I nearly creamed my pants when I saw it. the beast is awsome. | 01:58 |
| Chr|s | histo: they can hear me cut out, its not understandable its choppy. I ajusted the lvls | 01:58 |
| jmichaelx | histo: <sigh> yes, i have googled. may i ask where you got yor info on installing the driver from the nvidia site? or did you just pull that out of nowhere? | 01:59 |
| histo | Chr|s: I don't know I have no issues like that. Running 10.10 amd64 and teamspeak 3. I would test the mic in a different app and see if there is an issue. | 01:59 |
| dstar | histo: Exactly. The package doesn't exist, but the maverick-generic package depends on it. I guess I could let aptitude install the 2.6.35-22 version instead.... | 01:59 |
| Chr|s | I tested in mumble, worked fine | 01:59 |
| histo | jmichaelx: You just download it and use the installer that they provide. Let me see if I can find you the info on vdpau and folding | 01:59 |
| jmichaelx | aarcane: those new asus netbooks rock.... sorry for the OT here | 01:59 |
| jmichaelx | histo: i know how to install it, i was just wondering what makes you think this would fix the vdpau+gstreamer problem? if you have a link or reference on that, it would be MUCH appreciated | 02:00 |
| banker247_ | i'm sure some people actually get the woodchuck question wrong.. | 02:01 |
| histo | jmichaelx: you also need gstreamer that is compiled for vdpau | 02:01 |
| jmichaelx | histo: that may well be | 02:01 |
| jmichaelx | histo: i take it that is not the case with the gstreamer in the maveric repos? | 02:01 |
| jmichaelx | maverick* | 02:02 |
| aarcane | ubuntu + xbmc-live + vdpau works perfectly ootb on 10.04. gstreamer is the weak link. | 02:02 |
| histo | jmichaelx: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1037625 here is vdpau mplayer and smplayer | 02:02 |
| histo | jmichaelx: may provide some insite | 02:02 |
| jmichaelx | aarcane: yes... i have XBMC working great, as well as SMplayer.... and to a degree with VLC | 02:02 |
| aarcane | jmichaelx, gstreamer is a beast and an epic failure. you should avoid it at all costs. | 02:02 |
| histo | jmichaelx: on the forums I see people having problems with gstreamer-bad and vdpau | 02:03 |
| jmichaelx | histo: mplayer and smplayer are working fine... plus most anything relying on xine.... it is gstreamer that i am having issues with | 02:03 |

| histo | jmichaelx: correct. | 02:03 |
| aarcane | jmichaelx, gstreamer == bad. avoid gstreamer. | 02:03 |
| aarcane | gstreamer is someone's attempt to poorly reinvent a perfectly working wheel. | 02:04 |
| KimLaRoux | what's better than gstreamer? | 02:04 |
| greezmunkey | aarcane: what? They give that wheel corners?? | 02:04 |
| jmichaelx | aarcane: bad thing is that i think some kde apps (amarok, for one?) are considering switching away from xine, and toward gstreamer.... at least i read something to that effect not too long back | 02:05 |
| aarcane | KimLaRoux, mplayer, xine, vlc, xbmc, mythtv, etc.. pretty much anything. | 02:05 |
| Chr|s | histo: im going to try to plug in my headset in the back to see if it works that way | 02:05 |
| jmichaelx | KimLaRoux: xine seems to be a much better backend to me | 02:05 |
| etherealite | Anyone know how to get phpmyadmin to stop logging me out after 1400 seconds? I don't understand how ubuntu has packaged the configs. | 02:05 |
| Chr|s | right now im at a loss, this should be working fine | 02:05 |
| tiox | Far as small Linux goes, Damn Small Linux would fit the bill: 50MB in size! But then that means for support you'd have to go through their channels. | 02:06 |
| tiox | But it's still Debian, and they still use the .deb format, I think. | 02:06 |
| histo | Chr|s: like I said check mic with another app. Confirm that teamspeak is the problem. | 02:06 |
| KimLaRoux | I think both xine and gstreamer are piece of trash | 02:06 |
| greezmunkey | Is there an "Asterisk" channel here? | 02:06 |
| * tiox never had a problem with neither | 02:06 | |
| tiox | What's going on? | 02:06 |
| syn-ack | Asterisk? Sure. | 02:06 |
| histo | greezmunkey: /msg alis list asterisk | 02:07 |
| aarcane | KimLaRoux, xine is pretty crappy, held together liek bubblegum and duck tape.. but it's still better than gstreamer. | 02:07 |
| Chr|s | histo: yeah, I have, I installed and set up mumble fine | 02:07 |
| jmichaelx | tiox: one caution, though.... DSL appears to have been abandonned, with no updates to it for a few years now | 02:07 |
| tiox | Sounds sad. | 02:07 |
| tiox | I thought DSL was still active. | 02:07 |
| KimLaRoux | so far the only music player I found that was worth the mention is Aqualung | 02:07 |
| jmichaelx | tiox: ever messed around with tiny core? | 02:07 |
| histo | Chr|s: Dunno then perhaps the teamspeak forums? Not really a ubuntu problem. Unless you've messed with pulse settings etc... | 02:07 |
| histo | KimLaRoux: moc (music on console) | 02:08 |
| KimLaRoux | sadly I cant use it as a back-end for kde apps | 02:08 |
| jmichaelx | histo: moc FTW | 02:08 |
| nubuntu | anyone know where I can find a fix to get the clock applet for gnome panel to re-attach to the panel: mine's floating 1/2 way up my screen, and when I add 3 different location timezones, I can't see the top 1/2 of the global map | 02:08 |
| * jmichaelx loves his moc | 02:08 | |
| Chr|s | well actually it is, I am using ubuntu, packages were made for ubuntu. Thanks for trying to help none the less | 02:08 |
| aarcane | KimLaRoux, try mpd. | 02:08 |
| histo | !resetpanels | nubuntu | 02:08 |
| ubottu | nubuntu: To reset the gnome panel to defaults, type this in a !terminal: « gconftool --recursive-unset /apps/panel && killall gnome-panel » | 02:08 |
| nubuntu | it floats higher for each tz added | 02:08 |
| nubuntu | I'll try that, cheers | 02:09 |
| tiox | Ah yes, dormant is the status on distrowatch | 02:09 |
| KimLaRoux | can mpd be setup as a phonon backend? | 02:09 |
| greezmunkey | histo: no such channel :/ | 02:09 |
| nubuntu | will that mean I have to add them all back to the panel? | 02:09 |
| greezmunkey | histo: I tried # and ## as well... | 02:09 |
| histo | greezmunkey: right, you can msg alis to search for channels | 02:09 |
| toonacid | Someone who has Apache2 installed, can they do me a favor? I need a ls -l list of /var/log/apache2 and /var/log (to see what permissions the apache2 folder has also) | 02:09 |
| aarcane | KimLaRoux, mpd is a different kind of music player. try to think differently :) | 02:09 |
| greezmunkey | histo: thanks, I'll try googling it. | 02:09 |
| nubuntu | hmm | 02:09 |
| jmichaelx | tiox: you should give tiny core a shot... it's main dev was also in reality the main dev for DSL | 02:09 |
| nubuntu | I think I'm going to have to reboot | 02:10 |
| histo | toonacid: I believe they should be owned by root:root | 02:10 |
| NilBud | Someone looking for a small distro? | 02:10 |
| nubuntu | ok, I now have no panels: to I restart gconf? | 02:10 |
| histo | toonacid: but no longer have apache2 installed to check | 02:10 |
| toonacid | histo: Thanks. I also need a quick list of the /var/log/apache2 folder however.. | 02:11 |
| histo | toonacid: let me check my webserver remotely | 02:11 |
| Wolfhm | ? | 02:11 |
| tiox | THanks for the info jmichaelx. | 02:11 |
| tiox | I ought to challenge myself and see how useful a small OS is on a 512MB USB drive. | 02:12 |
| KimLaRoux | aarcane, Aqualung is easy enough and has a perfect playback, I don't feel like messing with the server/client setup of MPD | 02:12 |
| histo | toonacid: okay everything is root:adm except for other_vhosts_access_log which is root:root | 02:12 |
| toonacid | histo: Thanks! | 02:12 |
| histo | toonacid: apache2 is root:adm | 02:12 |
| aarcane | KimLaRoux, I use the terminal alot, so the switch to mpd made absolute sense for me. | 02:12 |
| tiox | I mean shit, they're a drop in the bucket compared to a sizeable USB drive or SD card. | 02:13 |
| toonacid | histo: What are the log file names inside the folder? Last thing I need. Thanks for your help. | 02:13 |
| Skapare | something changed the background image while I was installing a batch of packages ... I changed it back OK for my userid ... but it also changed it for the login screen ... How can I configure it back for the login screen? | 02:13 |
| KimLaRoux | aarcane, that's understandable... but I like simple things that just works =P | 02:14 |
| magicjoe | hi. i need a little help. my ubuntu starts to boot and then says, cannot display this video mode. i screwed up and turned it up too high and rebooted. problem is if i cant get back in, how do change it back? | 02:14 |
| aarcane | KimLaRoux, that's why I switched to MPD :) | 02:14 |
| histo | toonacid: there are access.log error.log the one I mentioned and then backups of old logs ex: access.log.1.gz etc... | 02:15 |
| Skapare | magicjoe: is there a recovery mode option in boot menu? | 02:15 |
| magicjoe | i booted into recovery mode, and have a root shell prompt | 02:15 |

| etherealite | Anyone know how to get phpmyadmin to stop logging me out after 1400 seconds? I don't understand how ubuntu has packaged the configs. | 02:16 |
| histo | magicjoe: you set it higher in gnome or in grub? | 02:16 |
| magicjoe | in gnome | 02:16 |
| aarcane | magicjoe, try mv /etc/X11/xorg.conf /etc/X11/xorg.conf.bak and shutdown -r now | 02:16 |
| histo | etherealite: configs are in /etc/ | 02:16 |
| Skapare | aarcane: shouldn't that be the other way around? | 02:16 |
| magicjoe | ok lemme give that a go | 02:16 |
| toenail | is there a virtual memory setting in ubuntu cause i dont have enough ram and the systems is lagging like hell | 02:16 |
| histo | magicjoe: if there are no settings in xorg.conf you can delete or move your .gconf folder. | 02:16 |
| Donkeyy | Hi | 02:17 |
| histo | toenail: how much ram do you have? Also do you have swap? | 02:17 |
| Donkeyy | How do I create a ntfs partition in ubuntu?? | 02:17 |
| Donkeyy | if I use the program GPARTED | 02:17 |
| toenail | 512 ram and the swap is 2 gigs | 02:17 |
| aarcane | Skapare, maybe. but if it's missing, it should be autodetected or recreated :) | 02:17 |
| Donkeyy | it says create a msdos file system | 02:17 |
| Donkeyy | will that work on ntfs? | 02:17 |
| histo | Donkeyy: You can use system admin disk utility | 02:17 |
| Donkeyy | In ubuntu? | 02:18 |
| Skapare | aarcane: but it would be faster to move his .bak into place? | 02:18 |
| histo | Donkeyy: msdos could be fat or something else. You can also use mkfs from the command prompt | 02:18 |
| entropy4 | hi | 02:18 |
| entropy4 | hi | 02:18 |
| magicjoe | no such file or directory | 02:18 |
| Donkeyy | histo: Are you saying in ubuntu? | 02:18 |
| histo | toenail: you shouldn't be having issues with memory management | 02:18 |
| histo | Donkeyy: yes | 02:18 |
| toenail | its runs fines until i get wine running or firefox | 02:18 |
| aarcane | Skapare, if he set it using the GUI, it wouldn't have let him set it too high, so that probably won't help. | 02:18 |
| Skapare | magicjoe: try the other way around ... mv /etc/X11/xorg.conf.bak /etc/X11/xorg.conf | 02:18 |
| Donkeyy | histo: where is mkfs? | 02:19 |
| Skapare | aarcane: oh, I have set it bad myself before ... doesn't always catch it for some cards | 02:19 |
| toenail | wel its not a memory problem it just it runs like crap when i get those going | 02:19 |
| Skapare | aarcane: err, for some monitors | 02:19 |
| histo | Donkeyy: in terminal you can use it. | 02:19 |
| aarcane | well, either way he should be better off :) | 02:19 |
| histo | Donkeyy: sudo mkfs.ntfs (options) (device) | 02:20 |
| magicjoe | no such file or directory | 02:20 |
| Skapare | aarcane: if the mv doesn't work, then yeah, rm ot mv to a crazy name would be next step | 02:20 |
| toenail | its using up alot of resorces and from what i remeber in windows you can use virtual memory and the system runs alot smoother | 02:20 |
| Donkeyy | histo: there is no desktop program? | 02:20 |
| Skapare | ot=or | 02:20 |
| histo | toenail: that's why we have swap | 02:20 |
| Donkeyy | histo: I have to be very careful because I have one HD with important data | 02:20 |
| histo | Donkeyy: Click On System > Administration > Disk Utility | 02:20 |
| Donkeyy | histo: a desktop version would be safer | 02:21 |
| Skapare | aarcane: you know how to change the background image at login time (gdm)? | 02:21 |
| etherealite | histo I know, but the phpmysql configs have no effect on my logout duration checkout line 37 and 36 in the config: http://pastie.org/1312224 | 02:21 |
| Donkeyy | histo: ok | 02:21 |
| etherealite | histo no effect | 02:21 |
| Donkeyy | histo: I am there | 02:21 |
| histo | etherealite: you may have to restart the service after editing the config | 02:21 |
| etherealite | histo how? | 02:21 |
| magicjoe | wait a minute.... | 02:21 |
| KERO_netbook | droppin sum deuce | 02:21 |
| magicjoe | i think i must have changed the settings for grub not gnome | 02:21 |
| toenail | ok well how come i run a simple audio program through wine and it sucks all the resorces | 02:21 |
| histo | etherealite: see if sudo /etc/init.d/phpmyadmin restart or something similiar | 02:21 |
| sexy | What can I use to stream music? | 02:21 |
| magicjoe | because i was changing the screen where you login | 02:22 |
| magicjoe | thats grub splash screen yeah? | 02:22 |
| magicjoe | and thats where it is crashing | 02:22 |
| histo | magicjoe: no your probably chaned your settings in gnome. Like ssytem > Preferences > resolution or something | 02:22 |
| Skapare | magicjoe: login is gdm unless you replace it with something else | 02:22 |
| fiber | Hello, I'm having a strange problem that results in 100% cpu usage. Basically, every once in a while my system cpu usage jumps to 100% although no user programs are straining the cpu at all. I have an i7 920 and plenty of free ram. This normally lasts a few minutes and the computer is completely unusable during this time. Also, it seems that there is increased network usage during this period. Anyone have an idea? | 02:22 |
| histo | magicjoe: that is X's resolution. changing the grub resolution settings would just change the framebuffer resolution | 02:23 |
| aarcane | Skapare, I used to, before they took all the configuration items out of gdm-config. try finding gdm.conf and poking at it. | 02:23 |
| magicjoe | yeah i was trying to get some cool splash screen for that screen though, and now its not booting | 02:23 |
| bazhang | fiber, try top in the terminal to see what its doing | 02:23 |
| sexy | fiber, does that only happen on Ubuntu? | 02:23 |
| Donkeyy | histo: what do I so in disk utility | 02:23 |
| Skapare | fiber: can you get a console shell open and run the "top" command with nice ... like "nice --19 top" ? | 02:23 |
| arthuza | fiber: have you run "top" to see what's using it? | 02:23 |
| fiber | bazhang: it's a system process... it doesn't show up as a user program in top | 02:23 |
| histo | Donkeyy: right lcikc on the partiion you want to format it to ntfs | 02:23 |
| histo | Donkeyy: if there isn't a partitoin you need to create one on the disk. | 02:23 |
| fiber | sexy: Yes... infact only in 10.10... i had 9.04 on before and it worked like a charm | 02:24 |
| histo | magicjoe: what exactly were you editing or changing? | 02:24 |
| Four2zero | damn in-game irc doesnt work | 02:24 |
| Skapare | aarcane: well I might try that ... or just look for a file being changed ... I have drive snapshots from before so I can see what changed | 02:24 |
| Donkeyy | histo: it does not appear to be there | 02:24 |
| Donkeyy | how do I create one histo | 02:24 |
| histo | Four2zero: what ingame irc? | 02:24 |
| magicjoe | it wasnt in synaptic | 02:24 |
| Donkeyy | histo: right clicking does nothing | 02:24 |
| fiber | But yea, no programs actually show up as using a lot of resources... however at the top I can see that "Sys" is using 100% | 02:24 |
| histo | Donkeyy: right click ont ehd isk and create a parition | 02:24 |
| Skapare | aarcane: was hoping they would try to make it GUI user friendly | 02:24 |
| Four2zero | oops wrong channel | 02:24 |

| sexy | Can anyone help me with setting up SlimServer? or any other program I can use to stream my music? | 02:25 |
| histo | Donkeyy: you need to do some reading this is way beyond the scope of this channel | 02:25 |
| histo | Donkeyy: you have to havec a parition on a disk to format it. | 02:25 |
| histo | sexy: mpd or vlc can stream music | 02:25 |
| Skapare | magicjoe: yeah, I understand ... the images help scare little nieces away from the computer :) | 02:25 |
| sexy | histo: thanks, looking into it | 02:26 |
| magicjoe | lol | 02:26 |
| histo | sexy: np. I prefer moc but I don't think it will do streaming | 02:26 |
| magicjoe | pretty much | 02:26 |
| histo | sexy: atleast to other clients | 02:26 |
| Donkeyy | histo: it keeps saying failed to delete partiion or create one | 02:27 |
| YiamiYo | can grub chainload to windows 7 loader which is in different drive?? | 02:27 |
| magicjoe | but yeah, i was trying to take tarballs and run dpkg on them myself, and probably got one that wasnt for my architecture and now i cant get it | 02:27 |
| histo | Donkeyy: what exactly are you trying to do? Is this a new disk? Is there free space etc... | 02:27 |
| Skapare | magicjoe: 2 rows of 72 log sharp teeth dripping of a mix of acidic saliva and victim blood | 02:27 |

| greezmunkey | histo: wierd, that search yielded nothing yet #asterisk exists - got my question answered too! | 02:27 |
| Donkeyy | histo: I am trying to backup important data on a second hd | 02:27 |
| Donkeyy | and then format the primary | 02:28 |
| Firefishe | I'm using ubuntu 10.04 LTS. I use kde, gnome, and xfce, but mostly kde 4.5.1. I am experiencing the issue of the balance of my sound system always being started with a bias toward the left speaker. I can correct this manually through gnome-volume-control-applet, but it never stays put between boots. | 02:28 |
| histo | greezmunkey: huh that's odd | 02:28 |
| histo | Donkeyy: is the second hd already formated? | 02:28 |
| Skapare | magicjoe: did the mv of the files work? | 02:28 |
| Donkeyy | yes it had ntfs on it like it should | 02:28 |
| magicjoe | oh hey i know the program to back stuff up donkey.....remastersys | 02:28 |
| Donkeyy | thats what ubuntu is saying | 02:28 |
| histo | Donkeyy: okay then mount the second drive and copy the files. Why are you trying to format it? | 02:29 |
| magicjoe | its perfect, look it up, its easy and even i have backed up an ubuntu onto a bootable live cd/installation cd | 02:29 |
| fiber | Skapare: arthuza: bazhang: sexy: any ideas? It gets so bad that even vim takes ages to respond to any sort of input... and it happens quite frequently! The main problem is I have no clue how to even get information regarding what is happening... how can I check what in the system is hogging the CPU? | 02:29 |
| Donkeyy | histo its not letting me mount it | 02:29 |
| magicjoe | sorry skapare. no that mv command didnt work | 02:29 |

| john38 | Guest69375, im using wireless router on this computer | 02:32 |
| YiamiYo | can grub chainload to windows 7 loader which is in different drive??anyone?? | 02:32 |
| histo | Donkeyy k | 02:32 |
| histo | YiamiYo: I believe so | 02:32 |
| magicjoe | so how do i change the gdm resolution settings from the command line? | 02:33 |
| YiamiYo | histo, this is my grub.cfg : http://pastebin.com/7iKUs996 | 02:33 |
| fiber | barbatruc: thanks, I'll try iotop... top doesn't give any information regarding this problem since the offending process isn't within userland. | 02:33 |
| cappicard | hey folks. anyone using msn via pidgin? I'm getting alot of inability to verify certificate chains from oscar.msn.com or something like that | 02:33 |
| YiamiYo | but when i choose windows 7 from grub i only see black screen with a blinking pointer | 02:33 |
| barbatruc | fiber: iotop will show you the processes using the hard drive | 02:33 |
| histo | YiamiYo: well you have it pointing at hd0 but you said it's on a different drive? | 02:34 |
| Donkeyy | histo: when I try to access the other HD the basic desktop way, I get this message http://pastebin.com/Zq4KpUcB | 02:34 |
| histo | Donkeyy: can you pastebin the output of sudo fdisk -l | 02:35 |
| Donkeyy | histo: ok but this wont delete anything right? | 02:35 |
| magicjoe | HEY!!! I got in! I su to my username, and then did startx. that got me past the login screen. PLEASE tell me how to fix those settings! | 02:35 |
| mrproper | I am in 10.10 and gnome-shell doesn't alt-tab. Can someone help me debug? | 02:36 |
| histo | Donkeyy: right it will just list parittions | 02:36 |
| Donkeyy | ok histo | 02:36 |
| Donkeyy | one sec | 02:36 |
| magicjoe | my login screen settings errors and says cannot use this display | 02:36 |
| YiamiYo | histo, i have a single drive (hd0) and 2 more in raid0...i'm trying to load the windows loader from grub which is in raid0 mbr | 02:36 |
| histo | YiamiYo: yeah grub config is messed up then it's pointing at hd0 not hte raid. | 02:36 |
| francela | como configuro los usuarios en samba | 02:36 |
| sexy | histo: I installed it, but how do I use it now? | 02:36 |
| francela | ?? | 02:36 |
| YiamiYo | histo, so...what i have to do? | 02:37 |
| histo | sexy: I would take a look at the wiki. YOu need an app to attach to the server and play whatever it is streaming. | 02:37 |
| Donkeyy | histo: http://pastebin.com/ws4WWeP0 | 02:37 |
| greezmunkey | Stupid question of the hour: What do you do to verify which version (32 or 64 bit) is installed? | 02:37 |
| evilgeenius | My ubuntu can never recover from going into hibernate/sleep mode. Does anyone know why? I have the latest version of ubuntu and it has never worked. Is there a solution? I can make it happen by closing my laptop lid for a couple of seconds. | 02:37 |
| histo | greezmunkey: uname -a | 02:37 |
| sexy | histo: But I haven't even specified my music directory. How can it be streaming anything? I feel like I haven't fully configured it | 02:38 |
| histo | Donkeyy: is there data on sdb1 ? | 02:38 |
| greezmunkey | histo: I did that, I get: Linux ubuntu 2.6.32-25-generic #45-Ubuntu SMP Sat Oct 16 19:48:22 UTC 2010 i686 GNU/Linux - so is the i686 indicative of a 64 bit system? (I honestly forgot which on I installed here) | 02:38 |
| histo | Donkeyy: the drive you can't mount? | 02:38 |
| Donkeyy | yes | 02:38 |
| Donkeyy | histo: there is windows I believe | 02:38 |
| histo | sexy: I don't use it but that wiki should explain. And the clients can control the server | 02:38 |
| Donkeyy | histo: But I dont need it | 02:38 |
| histo | greezmunkey: x86 | 02:39 |
| Donkeyy | histo: as long as it has ntfs | 02:39 |
| Pici | greezmunkey: No, i616 is 32bit. if it said x86_64 then it would have been 64 bits. | 02:39 |
| Donkeyy | and I can transfer data via linux | 02:39 |
| Kevindeuxieme | evilgeenius> same here, no version of ubuntu as ever been able to recover from sleep or hibernation on my laptops... my solution is to just turn the damn thing off, wors well^^ | 02:39 |
| greezmunkey | Thanks Pici and histo | 02:39 |
| DrManhattan | Ubuntu sure does look nice though | 02:39 |
| DrManhattan | lots of nice eye candy | 02:39 |
| histo | Donkeyy: okay then you can format that parittion. sudo mkfs.ntfs -f /dev/sdb1 | 02:39 |
| DrManhattan | I wish there were more games | 02:39 |
| histo | Donkeyy: that will format the /dev/sdb1 parition | 02:39 |
| Donkeyy | ok | 02:40 |
| histo | DrManhattan: there are plenty of games | 02:40 |
| DrManhattan | Nah nothing good | 02:40 |
| Donkeyy | lol, have a nice day it says | 02:40 |
| histo | Donkeyy: also you may want to laungh cfdisk /dev/sdb1 and remove the boot flag on the drive if you aren't booting it. | 02:40 |
| Donkeyy | ok histo I think it did it | 02:40 |
| histo | Donkeyy: the drive is set with a boot flag on the ntfs parition. | 02:41 |
| DasEi | YiamiYo: did you reboot ? | 02:41 |
| YiamiYo | DasEi, not yet | 02:41 |
| histo | DrManhattan: what kind of games do you like? | 02:41 |
| Vadtec | Dulak: hmmmm, interesting, seems ddwrt has support for the wrtg54g v5 (not the v3 i thought it was)...im gonna try dropping ddwrt on it | 02:41 |
| Donkeyy | histo: FATAL ERROR: Cannot open disk drive Press any key to exit cfdisk | 02:41 |
| DasEi | YiamiYo: ping me when done | 02:41 |
| DrManhattan | 3d fps | 02:41 |
| YiamiYo | histo, so i cannot boot from windows loader using grub? | 02:41 |
| DrManhattan | it's all about the fps | 02:41 |
| histo | Donkeyy: hrm... | 02:42 |
| histo | Donkeyy: gparted should be able to remove that boot flag as well. | 02:42 |
| histo | Donkeyy: I would also delete the partition and create a new one just to be sure the table isn't all jacked. | 02:42 |
| Dulak | Vadtec: openwrt for the v3 imo it's better than ddwrt | 02:42 |
| Vadtec | Dulak: its actually a v5 | 02:43 |
| histo | DrManhattan: urban terror nexuiz sauerbraten open arena | 02:43 |
| histo | DrManhattan: quakelive.com | 02:43 |
| Donkeyy | histo: didn't we do that? | 02:43 |
| Dulak | Vadtec: ahh, then you are stuck with ddwrt-mini | 02:43 |
| histo | Donkeyy: we only formated the parition. Think of the parition as a container. You need to format the container to use it. | 02:43 |
| sexy | Nope. I'm not understanding how to use this. The wiki just says how to install it.. | 02:43 |
| Donkeyy | histo: well said | 02:43 |
| nuffaaha | new to ubuntu: my wireless configures but will not activate..help? | 02:43 |
| Vadtec | Dulak: as long as its better than the crap image from linksys :D | 02:43 |
| Dulak | Vadtec: it's the amount of ram, they skimped on the ram at v5+ | 02:44 |
| Vadtec | Dulak: yeah | 02:44 |
| Donkeyy | histo: How can we do it gparted? | 02:44 |
| YiamiYo | anyone else here who knows how i can chainload to windows loader which is in different drive than grub? | 02:44 |
| Vadtec | :( | 02:44 |
| histo | Donkeyy: I believe something may be wrong witht he partition table on the drive. The thing that tells the drive where the containers are. So open up gparted so you can use a gui to manage the disk. | 02:44 |
| histo | Donkeyy: hit alt+f2 and type in gparted. It should come up if it's installed. If not you can install it.... sudo apt-get install gparted | 02:44 |
| akm22562 | Hi all! I am not new to Linux but new to Ubuntu. I have a GSM modem in a netbook. Was using gnome-phone-manager for SMS support. It works but holds a device lock on /dev/ttyUSB0 (the modem). | 02:44 |
| histo | YiamiYo: you have to point grub to the raid. The people in #grub2 maybe able to help more. I'm busy right now. Unless someone else can chime in. | 02:45 |
| rue_more | suggestions on verifying a disk from another linux computer? | 02:45 |
| Donkeyy | histo ok I think im in | 02:45 |
| neroman | anyone know how I can get the chat/broadcast/mail back up on the top right panel (i'm new obviously) | 02:45 |
| Vadtec | back in a bit, gonna try flashing this silly thing... :P | 02:45 |
| histo | Donkeyy: you should have /dev/sda and /dev/sdb sdb is the one you were saying was the drive you want to use. So delete the parition on it and remove the boot flag. Create a new parition and format to ntfs | 02:46 |
| sexy | histo: It just says, Connect to your MPD server using your favorite MPD client and you should be good to go! ...but I dont know even know what port its running on | 02:46 |
| YiamiYo | histo, no one is in #grub2 :s | 02:46 |
| Donkeyy | histo yes, its /dev/sdb | 02:47 |
| waldy | Afternoon all - Q: Has anyone here had experience setting up Apache2.2 on Ubuntu Server 10.04.1 and if so, what can cause Apache to not get host images (.gif / .jpg) and binary files properly. It treats everything like text, which is causing obvious problems here...... | 02:47 |
| MrAnthrope | What is the location of the image files for Appearance Preferences (r-click desktop --> change desktop background) ? | 02:47 |

| MrAnthrope | Whatever you do, don't UNINSTALL plymouth or you will have to reinstall Linux :) | 02:49 |
| Donkeyy | histo: do I right click and select new? | 02:49 |
| coz_ | magicjoe, you are talking about where you put user name and password ...yes? | 02:50 |
| veovis1 | I'm using Ubuntu server after mainly using Arch, and I can't find any information on how to do this: I want to start a screen session at boot as my user, even if no one has logged in. Can anyone point me to the file I need to add the command to? | 02:50 |
| MrAnthrope | That's not splash, that's the login background. | 02:50 |
| MrAnthrope | Oh I thought he said splash. Ignore me. | 02:50 |
| magicjoe | couldnt find that package | 02:51 |
| histo | Donkeyy: you need to delete the old parition first | 02:51 |
| akm22562 | Anybody know where the gnokii conf is I dont have a ~/.gnokiirc file? | 02:51 |
| coz_ | magicjoe, you could reset gnome to its defaults...I believe that should reset the log in screen | 02:51 |
| histo | Donkeyy: then you can create a new on in the free space on the drive | 02:51 |
| magicjoe | MrAnthorpe:ok login background, how can i reset it? | 02:51 |
| coz_ | magicjoe, however I havent tried it so I am not sure | 02:51 |
| histo | YiamiYo: #grub | 02:51 |
| magicjoe | MrAnthorpe: Could not find that package. | 02:51 |
| ubuntu_ | kokmmmmmmmmm | 02:51 |
| Donkeyy | histo: when I scroll up to partition and select delete the delete is greyed | 02:51 |
| DrManhattan | quake live simply crashes my firefox | 02:52 |
| coz_ | magicjoe, if you want to reset gnome to default run this command and reboot sudo rm -rf .gnome .gnome2 .gconf .gconfd .metacity then restart X | 02:52 |

| coz_ | magicjoe, save to desktop | 02:57 |
| coz_ | magicjoe, read it | 02:57 |
| Skapare | aarcane: so is that why Ubuntu is getting away from Gnome? | 02:58 |
| neroman | anyone from Abany,NY? | 02:58 |
| john38 | histo, yeah worked fine before | 02:58 |
| Donkeyy | histo: when I am done everything do I remount it or leave it unmounted? | 02:58 |
| coz_ | magicjoe, then remember to follow the directions again so that when you log off it doesn bring up that dialog | 02:58 |
| histo | john38: check system > admin > hardware drivers | 02:58 |
| Pici | neroman: You may want to try asking in #ubuntu-us-ny | 02:58 |
| aarcane | Skapare, I think it's the other way around, but I don't know. | 02:58 |
| Donkeyy | histo: if I want windows to read it for example | 02:58 |
| histo | Donkeyy: when you are done you need to mount it to use it. | 02:58 |
| histo | Donkeyy: windows is completely seperate. | 02:58 |
| john38 | histo, i just installed win 7 and ubuntu to dual boot on this computer using router | 02:59 |
| Donkeyy | histo: I know but I mean I just have some media like pics and movies I want to transfer | 02:59 |
| Donkeyy | will those be accessable | 02:59 |
| john38 | histo, and swapped HDD's from both | 02:59 |
| poutyface | I've installed 10.10.1 64bit, and my machine has 4GB of RAM. However I only see 3.6GB. Do I need to install a -pae kernel? | 02:59 |
| histo | Donkeyy: the pictures and movies are in windows or ubuntu? | 02:59 |
| Skapare | aarcane: is it "more user friendly" to reduce choice, or to increase choice (that maybe one of the choices will be what the user wants to do)? | 02:59 |
| Donkeyy | they were in windows | 02:59 |
| john38 | histo, theres nothing wrong with adapter | 03:00 |
| psusi | poutyface, pae only applies to 32 bit kernels | 03:00 |
| aarcane | Skapare, it's more end-user friendly, and less power-user friendly. | 03:00 |
| Donkeyy | but ubuntu could access them | 03:00 |
| Donkeyy | histo | 03:00 |
| jrib | poutyface: how are you determining how much you see? | 03:00 |
| Skapare | PAE is being depricated ... no one needs it anymore | 03:00 |
| poutyface | jrib: free -m | 03:00 |
| john38 | histo, could it be when installed win 7 and configured networks for internet that it got messed up | 03:00 |
| histo | Donkeyy: well you can use windows or ubuntu to copy the files over | 03:00 |
| histo | john38: no windows has nothing to do with networking in ubuntu | 03:01 |
| magicjoe | coz: hey what do i do with this file? i opened it and did the first step, nothing happened....now it wants me to logout? | 03:01 |
| Donkeyy | ok, so I must keep it mounted right? | 03:01 |
| ephram_mcbeal | Hi. Anyone use 10.10 installed in an iBook G4? | 03:01 |
| DrManhattan | this isnt working at all and im very disappointed | 03:01 |
| MACK1E | ran the update manager, found a flash something another, it locked up hosed my entire update manager | 03:01 |
| cats4gold | is anyone available to help me use the make command? | 03:01 |
| cats4gold | it should be simple, but something isn't working | 03:01 |
| psusi | poutyface, most likely your motherboard does not support memory hoisting so things like the video frame buffer are being allocated under the 4gb mark for compatability with 32 bit operating systems, and that makes the ram at those addresses if it can not be hoisted | 03:01 |
| evilgeenius | Kevindeuxieme: I'd have thought that ubuntu would have figured out how to reliably return from sleep mode by now,,, | 03:02 |
| Skapare | aarcane: and I'm not a "power user" in the GUI sense ... I'm a hardware/systems guy ... I hack BIOSes, boot loaders, kernels, and init scripts ... I'm clueless about GUI environments | 03:02 |
| jrib | poutyface: is it possible you have a computer that uses ram for video memory? | 03:02 |
| veovis1 | barbatruc: That worked, thanks. | 03:02 |
| poutyface | cats4gold: use it for what, exactly | 03:02 |
| john38 | histo, what the heck could it be i just reinstalled ubuntu 10.04 64 bit on other computer | 03:02 |
| veovis1 | unfortunately, I have to go | 03:02 |
| barbatruc | veovis1: sweet | 03:02 |
| veovis1 | shutting down | 03:02 |
| poutyface | jrib: ah, yes, I do. I should have thought of that :) | 03:02 |
| Skapare | aarcane: if it's "abstract" it makes no sense to me | 03:02 |
| psusi | s/makes/masks | 03:02 |
| cats4gold | poutyface: compiling the source for a minecraft mapper | 03:02 |
| histo | john38: no idea. is the card being detected lspci or lsusb and are the drivers being loaded? | 03:02 |
| aarcane | Skapare, sounds like someone else I know. anyway, I'm poofing. | 03:02 |
| john38 | histo, the gnome network applet "wave sign had red exclamation | 03:02 |
| Skapare | aarcane: bye ... and thanks | 03:03 |
| magicjoe | coz: are you there? | 03:03 |
| subone | My SMPlayer now shows no video and I'm forced to go back to using gnome-mplayer for the time being. IDK why because it was working before and it is using the same mplayer as gmplayer is. What would be my first step to troubleshoot this issue or determine why this suddenly happened? | 03:03 |
| john38 | histo, this is the weird part when i reinstalled network connections shows up as wired auto etho0 | 03:03 |
| histo | john38: most likely cuz networking is disabled you get that. just enable it. | 03:03 |
| Evanah649 | hi guys | 03:04 |
| xman | hey evan | 03:04 |

| coz_ | magicjoe, yes you have to log out after running the first command | 03:04 |
| john38 | histo, what is lspci or lsusb?? | 03:04 |
| magicjoe | coz: HEY I THINK ITS SOLVED!!!! SWEET THANK YOU | 03:04 |
| cats4gold | Can I post an error, or will that stretch the page a bit much? | 03:04 |
| histo | john38: they show devices detected by the system | 03:04 |
| Evanah649 | i need help lol. trying to run a game under wine and after installing it gives an error saying "Failed to initialize direct3D. Aborting." Does anyone know how to fix this? | 03:05 |
| coz_ | magicjoe, then when you have chosen the background image ,, log back in and then run the second commad to prevent the dialog from opening each time | 03:05 |
| Skapare | hmmm ... I posted my question on ubuntuforums.org ... but then realized I didn't yet do a net wide google ... so I do that and get ONE hit ... my post | 03:05 |
| john38 | histo, when i right click on gnome network applet its has check to networking enabled | 03:05 |
| john38 | histo, if networking is disabled how do i enable it | 03:06 |
| cats4gold | Can anyone look at this error I get when running make? | 03:06 |
| Skapare | coz_: is there a simple way to just change the GDM login background image? | 03:06 |
| coz_ | Skapare, that is about the simplest way I know of | 03:07 |
| * Skapare doesn't want one for grub | 03:07 | |

| j_ | ?? | 03:08 |
| histo | john38: under that same menu | 03:08 |

| ubottu | john38: Wireless documentation, including how-to guides and troubleshooting information, can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs | 03:08 |
| john38 | histo, but Enable Networking is checked | 03:09 |
| histo | john38: you'll ahve to follow the troubleshooting or howto's or ask someone else | 03:09 |
| Evanah649 | so did anyone get this error when trying to run a game under wine - "Failed to initialize direct3D"? | 03:10 |

| Donkeyy | I have a very interesting question | 03:13 |
| Donkeyy | I have a 80gb HD if I want half linux half windows which one should I instal first? | 03:14 |
| === Semitones is now known as SillyTones | ||
| psusi | Donkeyy, best to install windows first, then ubuntu | 03:14 |
| histo | Donkeyy: windows | 03:14 |
| histo | !dualboot > Donkeyy | 03:14 |
| ubottu | Donkeyy, please see my private message | 03:14 |
| Donkeyy | psusi: OK, but can I specify how much hd I want reserved for windows | 03:14 |
| Donkeyy | I dont remember it askin | 03:15 |
| Skapare | coz_: I wish someone would just write a straight-forward no-non-sense no-hidden-agenda document that just tells people what all those fields in all the gnome config files really mean | 03:15 |
| psusi | Donkeyy, just install windows normally using the whole hd, then when you install ubuntu, it will ask you how much to shrink windows by | 03:15 |
| DrManhattan | I demand someone help me fix my quakelive | 03:15 |
| * DrManhattan shakes his fist | 03:16 | |
| histo | DrManhattan: the quakelive forums maybe a good start. | 03:16 |
| Donkeyy | psusi: what if the hardrive with windows was full? | 03:16 |
| histo | DrManhattan: try launching firefox from terminal so you get some output when it crashes also. | 03:16 |
| === nova is now known as nova|away | ||
| psusi | Donkeyy, full as in full of files, or full as in only one partition using the whole disk? | 03:16 |
| histo | Donkeyy: If there is no empty space it can't resize it. | 03:16 |
| DrManhattan | fine. | 03:16 |
| histo | DrManhattan: Does it just close or what? | 03:17 |
| Donkeyy | histo: exactly | 03:17 |
| Donkeyy | so histo if I am to install windows first, wouldn't it use the whole hard disk like always | 03:17 |
| histo | Donkeyy: but if your windows drive is completely full you have other issues to contend with. pagefile.sys etc... | 03:17 |
| histo | Donkeyy: it will use the whole disk or you can tell it to create a smaller partition, only use lets say half the drive. | 03:18 |
| Kevindeuxieme | you can always shrink the partition fromm windows after install | 03:18 |
| illdecree | histo: could you help me with bluetooth on meerkat? i've got my headphones paired, but don't know how to pipe the music to them instead of the speakers... | 03:18 |
| Donkeyy | yes histo thats exactly what I want to do | 03:18 |
| histo | Donkeyy: you can resize paritions to make room for ubuntu. The installer will do this. | 03:18 |
| histo | Donkeyy: either way it will work. | 03:18 |
| Donkeyy | the ubuntu installer histo? | 03:18 |
| cats4gold | Can somebody take a look at this? http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1626112 | 03:19 |
| Kevindeuxieme | the windows one to be on the more or less safe side | 03:19 |
| psusi | Donkeyy, yes, the Ubuntu installer will shrink the windows partition to make room, as long as it isn't full | 03:19 |
| DrManhattan | .mozilla/firefox/t1zozy09.default/extensions/quakeliveplugin@idsoftware.com/plugins/npquakelive.i386.so: wrong ELF class: ELFCLASS32] | 03:19 |
| histo | Donkeyy: correct after windows is installed just run the ubuuntu installer. If there is no room outside of the parition it will want to resize the /dev/sda1 and create room. | 03:19 |
| histo | !dualboot | Donkeyy | 03:19 |
| ubottu | Donkeyy: Dual boot instructions: x86/AMD64: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WindowsDualBootHowTo - MACs: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MacBookPro https://help.ubuntu.com/community/YabootConfigurationForMacintoshPowerPCsDualBoot | 03:19 |
| histo | DrManhattan: are you running 64bit? | 03:19 |
| DrManhattan | yep | 03:20 |
| histo | DrManhattan: you need the ia32libs | 03:20 |
| DrManhattan | ok | 03:20 |
| histo | DrManhattan: unless they have a 64bit version | 03:20 |
| DrManhattan | ia32-libs is already the newest version. | 03:21 |
| message144 | Hi, are there any advantages to using UFW over iptables other than simplicity? | 03:21 |
| humanMeat | hrm | 03:22 |
| humanMeat | openvpn people insist openvpn is still good software | 03:22 |
| humanMeat | even though their installer for the windows client comes with a client that hasn't been updated since 2005 | 03:22 |
| illdecree | what's wrong with openvpn? i've got little experience with it, but i was never unhappy with it...? | 03:23 |
| humanMeat | illdecree | 03:23 |
| illdecree | humanmeat: yes? | 03:23 |
| humanMeat | would you use some software that has not been updated for the latest versions of an OS | 03:23 |
| humanMeat | for 5 years? | 03:23 |
| humanMeat | and it breaks when you run the installer | 03:23 |
| illdecree | i wasn't aware of that LOL. been years since i used it or even looked at it | 03:23 |
| jacky | No, humanMeat. | 03:23 |
| greezmunkey | cats4gold: yeah, your make script can't find a file: fatal error: zlib.h | 03:23 |
| jacky | humanMeat: what are you referring to. | 03:23 |
| humanMeat | jacky, openvpn 2.14 | 03:23 |
| illdecree | so, i wouldn't. good to know, b/c i was actually considering it for a project awhile back... | 03:24 |
| humanMeat | it comes packaged with a openvpn gui client 1.03 copyright 2002-2005 | 03:24 |
| illdecree | hey, humanMeat, are you good with bluetooth in meerkat? | 03:24 |
| humanMeat | no | 03:24 |
| humanMeat | i haven't used bluetooth yet | 03:24 |
| humanMeat | lolol | 03:24 |
| jacky | humanMeat: wow, I never knew that. DEFINITELY a security issue. | 03:25 |
| illdecree | i haven't either, and i'm stuck... | 03:25 |

| maco | vic20gmr: thisd be the place for all levels of tech support (though mostly new user stuff gets answered the most as more people know it) | 03:28 |

| humanMeat | vic20gmr, linux is not for hardcore gaming | 03:30 |

| humanMeat | wine only works "almost" and crashes a lot the other non-almost times | 03:30 |
| message144 | illdecree, yeah, ive never had luck with the analog headphones on my ubuntu machines.. the logitech usb support is really good though | 03:31 |

| message144 | illdecree, of course it depends on the sound card | 03:31 |

| vic20gmr | i see many good games for linux, nexuiz and assault cube appeal to me, and the only windows games i would run either havelinux native bnaries, or are old enuff for performance to not be so much an issue | 03:31 |
| illdecree | i'll have to remember that. do you know of any good USB to headphones (wireless) setups that are good? even if they are RF, i'd consider them. i just wanna be able to walk around at work and not have to take off my headphones 1000x a day | 03:32 |
| vic20gmr | i als ran quake 4 on a friends computer, under ubuntu 10.04 lts fine | 03:32 |

| vic20gmr | maco wud thre be advantge to my using it instead of ubuntu [keeping in mind my main task is gaming]? | 03:34 |
| maco | vic20gmr: i dont know. i havent used it. it may have fewer services running in the background which would divert less cpu usage away from your game. itd only matter if you're on old hardware though | 03:34 |
| vic20gmr | illdecree o recomend virtualbox | 03:35 |
| histo | DrManhattan: looks like a currrent but with quakelive i'd search there forums | 03:35 |

| john38 | how do i tell ubuntu to use lsusb and load network drivers | 03:54 |
| Luqman | I would like to know where ubuntu mounts the filesystem while it is installing | 03:54 |

| Luqman | Skapare, as in use kill -STOP ? | 03:55 |
| Skapare | Luqman: as in, press Ctrl+Alt+F1 and do "df" | 03:55 |
| Luqman | ctrl+alt+f1 breaks it? | 03:56 |
| Skapare | Ctrl+Alt+F7 to get back | 03:56 |
| Luqman | I didn't know that | 03:56 |
| Skapare | not "break" ... but "break in" | 03:56 |
| Luqman | I thought it let it run in the background | 03:56 |
| Luqman | would it sort of pause? | 03:56 |
| vic20gmr | maco if i put visual effects on lowest setting, do you think that will have a positive impact on 3d game performance? | 03:56 |
| Skapare | it will still run ... but that "break in" is a switch to a text console | 03:56 |
| Skapare | no, it will keep going | 03:56 |
| maco | vic20gmr: no, i think itll be negative. visual effects should be off | 03:56 |

| Skapare | it's not even in background ... it's "in" another console | 03:57 |
| vic20gmr | maco, ok thanks | 03:57 |

| mappum | how can i set my libraries I have recently installed (apt-get) to be included in g++? | 04:01 |
| Skapare | gasull: not sure if needed here, but I have seen SOME programs that fail if a URL ends in the host:port part w/o a trailing '/' | 04:01 |
| ollie_ | bello | 04:01 |
| d3v0 | it says (cannot connect to smtp server) | 04:01 |
| Skapare | gasull: you might append / to that proxy URL and try again just to be sure | 04:01 |
| ollie_ | vista or ubuntu u decide should i unistall vist | 04:01 |
| Skapare | gasull: I assume you verified the proxy with a browser | 04:01 |
| bkanuka | hey is there a way to hide messages about people joining or leaving and just see the talk? | 04:01 |
| Skapare | mappum: "my libraries" are your own personal ones? installed by what means? | 04:02 |
| rww | bkanuka: /set irc_conf_mode 1 | 04:02 |
| taroven | bkanuka: Assuming xchat, rightclick #ubuntu in your channel list, head to Settings, and toggle "Hide Join/Part Messages" | 04:02 |
| gasull | Skapare: thanks but it doesn't work :-( | 04:02 |
| rww | bkanuka: (what I said is for all channels, what taroven is for one channel) | 04:03 |
| capleton | hey, in a terminal, how can you tell the free space left on a particular device? | 04:03 |
| sacarlson | gasull: is proxy from your self posible? does your proxy from yourself work with a browser? | 04:03 |
| rww | capleton: df -h | 04:03 |
| mappum | Skapare: ones I am assuming are standard such as zlib and pnglib, i used apt-get | 04:03 |
| bkanuka | rww: where should I learn about these things? | 04:03 |
| shcherbak | john38: refer to this https://help.ubuntu.com/community/HardwareSupportComponentsWirelessNetworkCardsTP-Link, eventually try to find installation method by googling usb ID with linux or ubuntu | 04:03 |
| Skapare | gasull: then I guess you'll need to do some network sniffing to see what is happening wrong | 04:03 |
| taroven | Anyone aware of a way to lock a devices volume in Pulseaudio/ALSA? Having some annoying overdrive issues, and my volume gets reset on user switches. | 04:03 |
| Skapare | gasull: or wait until I get around to doing a proxy at work + time to debug it | 04:03 |
| rww | bkanuka: I got that off Google, but #xchat might be helpful ;) | 04:04 |
| shcherbak | john38: what version of Ubuntu we talk? | 04:04 |
| bkanuka | also what program SHOULD i be using? xchat or gnome xchat | 04:04 |

| Vadtec | Dulak: well, at least i got my wrt54g v5 flashed to dd-wrt :D | 04:04 |

| capleton | thnx rww | 04:05 |
| bkanuka | rww: thanks. I know i should just google but i've yet to find a solid guide. I haven't found xchat very new user friendly | 04:05 |

| bkanuka | sorry, not xchat, IRC | 04:05 |
| gasull | sacarlson: I'm using ssh tunneling as a proxy | 04:05 |
| taroven | Skapare: For example, I use two sound devices (one USB, one internal) - The USB device is set to 100% volume, internal needs to be set to 63% to prevent overdrive. Switching users puts the USB device to 11% and the internal to 89% every time. | 04:06 |
| Skapare | gasull: what ssh option? | 04:06 |
| sacarlson | gasull: ok and does firefox work with it? | 04:06 |
| Skapare | taroven: even though you have set the volume also in the other user? | 04:06 |
| sexy | AHH this is getting frustrating. Niether MPD nor Subsonic are working. Any help? | 04:06 |
| taroven | Skapare: Correct. Bit odd if you ask me. | 04:07 |
| gasull | Skapare, sacarlson: yes, Firefox is working with it: ssh -ND 7777 -p 587 example.com | 04:07 |
| john38 | shcherbak, i think when i configured network with windows 7 it messed up everything | 04:07 |
| shcherbak | can you give me line from lsusb? | 04:07 |
| taroven | Skapare: Gimme 20 seconds and I'll doublecheck. | 04:07 |
| d3v0 | im having a problem with evolution mail i cant send mail but i cant receive it, none of my settings have changed and the error i get says i cant connect to smtp server | 04:07 |
| Skapare | taroven: agreed, odd ... each user has its volume state which has issues ... but it shouldn't require repeating that on every switch | 04:07 |
| shcherbak | john38: are you using wubi? | 04:07 |
| john38 | shcherbak, several | 04:07 |
| john38 | shcherbak, im running windows 7 and ubuntu dual boot on this one | 04:08 |
| Skapare | gasull: you have specified HTTP proxying, not SOCKS proxying, in that config | 04:08 |
| john38 | shcherbak, i have only ubuntu on other computer with usb adapter | 04:08 |
| Skapare | gasull: I'm not sure it can do socks proxying | 04:09 |
| shcherbak | john38: only line for that device (need to plugged in), if this is dual-boot configs are independent. | 04:09 |
| Skapare | gasull: but you might try "http://" -> "socks://" or "socks5://" to see if | 04:09 |
| d3v0 | im having a problem with evolution mail i cant send mail but i cant receive it, none of my settings have changed and the error i get says i cant connect to smtp server | 04:09 |
| taroven | Skapare: Correction, volume on the other user was completely screwed. Still very confused as to why the second user would be able to force my volume levels while mine have no effect on it. | 04:10 |
| john38 | shcherbak, it said Atheros Communications Inc | 04:10 |
| shcherbak | d3v0: make sure thet configuration is ok (password and ssl) | 04:10 |
| Skapare | gasull: otherwise you might need to run a socks library wedge (forget the name of it) to force all connect() sys calls to call a socks support function | 04:10 |
| shcherbak | john38: yes, whole line | 04:10 |
| john38 | shcherbak, hold on | 04:10 |
| Skapare | taroven: each user has its own volume level ... logout one and login other, it will change to the other's volume ... direct user switch I believe would do exactly the same | 04:11 |
| gasull | Skapare: tried with "socks". Also, I captured the network traffic with Wireshark while using "http" in /etc/apt/apt.conf | 04:12 |
| Skapare | taroven: it makes sense in cases where each user is a different real person playing different stuff ... but it's annoying when one user is crossing up multiple stuff at different levels AND multiple userids that have to keep changing | 04:12 |
| Luqman | Okay after some trickery, I've got btrfs mounted with compress :D | 04:13 |
| Skapare | gasull: it will try to do HTTP style proxying ... any chance you can set up an HTTP proxy server at the far end of your SSH connection ... and use -L on SSH to pass the connection to the proxy server? | 04:13 |
| === michael is now known as Burzmali | ||
| Luqman | Thanks for the help Skapare | 04:14 |

| === Guest11570 is now known as Burzmali | ||
| taroven | Skapare: *shrug* It's not a big deal either way. I've got the second user's login details if I need to reset it again. I'm a lot more curious about the second part of the original question, preventing overdrive by either locking ALSA PCM volume or setting a custom max level to the pulseaudio volume controls. | 04:14 |
| xTheGoat121x | Hibernate is currently not working on my laptop -- it had previously worked. I can list symptoms when needed | 04:14 |
| john38 | shcherbak, BUS 001 Device 005: ID 0cf3:9271 Atheros Communications, Inc. | 04:14 |
| Skapare | taroven: what you need is basically single-state volume levels so a user switch OR logout/login doesn't change it | 04:15 |
| Skapare | taroven: but ... that seems to not be considered the "friendly way" by certain people | 04:16 |
| bkanuka | I had some people help me out a few minutes ago - thanks. I've just been messing around in xchat settings | 04:16 |
| Skapare | taroven: similar to the "I want my wireless connection to stay up across user switch" | 04:16 |
| shcherbak | john38: have you tried Hardware Drivers from menu? | 04:17 |
| sexy_ | Can someone please help me set up Subsonic or MPD? Having a tough time | 04:17 |
| taroven | Skapare: Not a big enough deal to bother with, honestly. I can always just readjust if needed. I still do want volume sliders that make sense though - ie, 100% volume not sounding like I just blew out my speakers. | 04:17 |
| john38 | shcherbak, well i cant connect to internet so i dont know | 04:18 |
| john38 | shcherbak, ?? | 04:20 |
| Skapare | taroven: there is separate volume and master volume settings at the driver/device level ... and maybe 100%+100% is in fact overdriving ... and maybe setting master to 50% might at least limit the peaking issues | 04:20 |
| Skapare | taroven: a full mixer app might be able to make all the settings ... dunno if they will "stick" though | 04:21 |
| gasull | Skapare: it works with tsocks :-) | 04:21 |
| john38 | shcherbak, im using TL-WN722N usb adapter | 04:21 |
| Skapare | taroven: over on my slackware box I use alsamixer for that ... settings stay across users ... but go back to defaults on reboot | 04:21 |
| Skapare | gasull: \o/ | 04:22 |
| gasull | Skapare: when you mentioned using "socks://" I realized what the problem was. Thanks. | 04:22 |
| taroven | Skapare: Yeah, aware of using alsamixer for that. I've had a bit of success setting master down a bit (since pulse seems to go by PCM for the most part), but like you said it doesn't seem to stick across boots. | 04:22 |

| git__ | i want to have USB to work perfectly | 04:25 |
| taroven | Skapare: Hm. Good idea. I'll hit up Google for the commands. Thanks for the help. | 04:25 |
| arrrghhh | git__, usb is usually the smallest of problems. wifi and video cards are probably #1 culprit of pain. | 04:25 |
| Skapare | mappum: normally that's done in the including source's #include directive | 04:26 |
| Skapare | mappum: where did zlib.h get installed at? | 04:27 |
| mappum | Skapare: i dont know, i used apt-get | 04:27 |
| git__ | i'm in the market for a laptop | 04:27 |
| john38 | shcherbak, could it be networking is disabled theres a check next to Enable networking | 04:27 |
| git__ | and want one that works great with Ubuntu 10.10 | 04:27 |
| Skapare | mappum: do command: ls -l /usr/include/zlib.h | 04:28 |
| Skapare | if it's there, then in C/C++ program this should work: #include <zlib.h> | 04:28 |
| mappum | it does not exist, I am assuming i installed the wrong package | 04:28 |
| Skapare | what was the package name? | 04:29 |
| mappum | well i installed zlibc but there are other names | 04:29 |
| mappum | xlib-bin? | 04:29 |
| mappum | *zlib | 04:29 |
| Skapare | mappum: install zlib-dev | 04:30 |

| arrrghhh | i'm just strikin out. | 04:32 |
| Skapare | mappum: try zlib1g-dev | 04:32 |
| Shoggoth | I seem to remember that it is somehow possible to compile and install software from source and then tell the dpkg system about it so it doesn't get overwritten | 04:32 |
| Shoggoth | how do you do this? can someone please remind me | 04:33 |
| Skapare | Shoggoth: build it into a .deb would seem reasonable to me | 04:33 |
| shcherbak | john38: but I have not find to many confimed test. Use this one -- http://linuxwireless.org/en/users/Drivers/ath9k_htc | 04:33 |
| bastidrazor | Shoggoth: use checkinstall instead of make install | 04:33 |
| mappum | Skapare: thank you, it worked. I am just wondering, where did you go to find that? | 04:33 |
| Shoggoth | Skapare: yes that's one way... but I remember doing it another way at somepoint | 04:33 |
| Skapare | Shoggoth: otherwise I keep stuff away from where dpkg would install it | 04:33 |
| Shoggoth | bastidrazor: that might be what I'm looking for... | 04:34 |
| bastidrazor | !checkinstall | 04:34 |
| ubottu | checkinstall is a wrapper to "make install", useful for installing programs you compiled. It will create a .deb package, which will be listed in the APT database and can be uninstalled like other packages. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CheckInstall - Read the warnings at the top and bottom of that web page, and DO NOT interrupt CheckInstall while it's running! | 04:34 |
| Skapare | mappum: I have a collection of files I generated by having aptitude get a package list then generate info on every package ... a four hour long run | 04:34 |
| Shoggoth | ok | 04:34 |
| Shoggoth | so has anyone used it to build and install wine? | 04:35 |
| john38 | shcherbak, can't find the link to download? | 04:35 |
| AngryKoala | arrrghhh, this is weird. When I mount /dev/sda1 , which is my windows hdd, it mounts my root in /dev/sdb1 instead | 04:35 |
| Skapare | mappum: unfortunately, the script uses some C programs I wrote, too ... so it's not ready for public use | 04:35 |
| john38 | shcherbak, ath9k_htc keeps redirecting me to another page | 04:35 |
| Skapare | mappum: eventually it will be | 04:36 |
| arrrghhh | AngryKoala, make sure you're using the right disk. ls -lah /dev/disk/by-uuid | 04:36 |
| arrrghhh | the uuid of NTFS partitions is very obvious... | 04:36 |
| mappum | Skapare: maybe it should be turned into a public service rather than a public script | 04:36 |
| shcherbak | john38: you, most likely want to get ar9271.fw | 04:36 |
| arrrghhh | no dashes, usually all caps i believe. | 04:36 |
| Skapare | mappum: that's an idea, too | 04:36 |
| shcherbak | john38: what page? | 04:36 |
| AngryKoala | arrrghhh, yup, the only one Not in my /etc/fstab is /dev/sda1 which is different than all the rest | 04:37 |
| john38 | shcherbak, http://linuxwireless.org/en/users/Drivers/ath9k_htc | 04:37 |
| shcherbak | to get right firmware -- http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/dwmw2/linux-firmware.git;a=tree | 04:37 |
| Shoggoth | bastidrazor: do I have to do a apt-get hold afterwards? | 04:37 |
| Skapare | mappum: not sure what the best WUI would be for it ... but I could just provide a tarball of all the data each week and let someone else do the web part | 04:37 |
| arrrghhh | AngryKoala, your fstab should mount by uuid... does it not? | 04:37 |
| shcherbak | for instructions -- http://linuxwireless.org/en/users/Drivers/ath9k_htc | 04:37 |
| arrrghhh | the /dev location can change... | 04:38 |
| Skapare | mappum: would be nice if ubuntu.com just did this ... that, afterall, have the master data | 04:38 |
| bastidrazor | Shoggoth: you can yes if the repositories hold a newerr version | 04:38 |
| AngryKoala | arrrghhh, correct, my fstab mounts by uuid, I'm just saying that the only uuid left is linked to /dev/sda1 | 04:38 |
| shcherbak | john38: make sure to have coffe ready before you start | 04:38 |
| john38 | shcherbak, ok | 04:38 |
| Skapare | mappum: and that data downloads via apt-get update | 04:38 |
| Shoggoth | bastidrazor: thanks... yes unfortunately my program will only work with wine 1.1.33 which is much older than what's in the repo | 04:38 |
| arrrghhh | AngryKoala, ic. well that makes no sense then :P | 04:39 |
| Shoggoth | bastidrazor: I shall embark on this quest :) thanks again! | 04:39 |
| AngryKoala | arrrghhh, yes i know...which is why i need help lol | 04:39 |
| bastidrazor | Shoggoth: best of luck | 04:39 |
| mappum | Skapare: have you contacted them? that would be pretty helpful to the community | 04:39 |
| arrrghhh | AngryKoala, please pastebin the output of that ls command, and the mount command you are attempting. also, your mount point exists? where are you trying to mount it? | 04:39 |
| Skapare | mappum: as soon as I get lxc working right, I'll set up doing this for a few versions of ubuntu | 04:40 |
| bastidrazor | AngryKoala: as suggested earlier, you should be using UUID's in fstab instead of /dev/ .. it solves the issue | 04:40 |
| AngryKoala | bastidrazor, im using uuids | 04:40 |
| shcherbak | john38: on firmware page find ar9271.fw and download it (get also whole family of ar7010, just in case) | 04:40 |
| rww | Skapare, mappum: http://packages.ubuntu.com/ can search for which packages contain a given file. | 04:40 |
| rww | when it's up, anyway | 04:41 |
| mappum | rww: oh. nevermind then. | 04:41 |
| Skapare | rww: that's part of the solution, at least | 04:41 |
| Skapare | rww: it goes down a lot? maybe they should run ... oh wait ... what distro was that? | 04:41 |
| rww | Skapare: Yes. I suspect it runs on the same 486 as wiki.ubuntu.com. | 04:42 |
| john38 | shcherbak, its only 0 bytes blank | 04:42 |
| rww | and keyserver.ubuntu.com | 04:42 |
| rww | yay Canonical hosting :\ | 04:42 |
| Skapare | rww: one problem is the package list has a lot of package names that were transitional aliases where another change took place, and the name is still there now dangling | 04:43 |
| AngryKoala | arrrghhh, http://pastebin.com/UQBZVKj9 | 04:43 |
| john38 | shcherbak, do i click on title, blob, history or raw | 04:43 |
| Skapare | rww: they show up as "State: not a real package" and the like | 04:43 |
| shcherbak | john38: rathe on file itself | 04:43 |
| rww | Skapare: Yes, virtual packages. packages.ubuntu.com ignores them | 04:44 |
| Skapare | rww: maybe they are running it on a netbook reached via wireless at 100m | 04:44 |
| rww | http://packages.ubuntu.com/search?searchon=contents&keywords=zlib.h&mode=exactfilename&suite=maverick&arch=any | 04:44 |
| john38 | shcherbak, its a blank file 0 bytes | 04:45 |
| rww | so still requires familiarity with things, but it's a useful tool | 04:45 |
| john38 | shcherbak, am i clicking ar9271.fw then adding stuff to text | 04:47 |
| john38 | shcherbak, is that how this works | 04:47 |
| taroven | Skapare: Turns out that setting "flat-volumes = no" in /etc/pulse/daemon.conf at least makes PA levels less annoying to deal with. I can live with that. Ended up just killing the Gnome volume controls on the second user, there's a volume wheel on the speakers for that anyway. =P | 04:47 |
| frederick85 | I'v got this issue where my mouse doesn't work occasionally after booting 10.10, like I said it is occasional and the workaround I'm currently using is turn it off and on again and it has a chance that it will work. | 04:48 |
| MrAnthrope | Hey guys, I installed Guild Wars and everything is fine except I installed an icon theme and it has messed up my desktop icon for guild wars. How can I make a GW icon that isn't a sheet of paper? lol | 04:48 |

| shcherbak | john38: it detect supported hardware with no connection, just cannot install it | 04:54 |
| john38 | shcherbak, what do i do first | 04:54 |
| nit-wit | frederick85, it is probably the mouse what makes it work when this happens? | 04:54 |
| john38 | shcherbak, should i transfer any file to that computer | 04:55 |
| john38 | shcherbak, i dont have aht9k_htc driver | 04:55 |
| frederick85 | nit-wit, to get it working again I shut down the computer and start it up again | 04:55 |
| nit-wit | frederick85, have you tried unplugging then plugging back in? | 04:56 |

| bastidrazor | MrAnthrope: right click > properties > Basic > click the icon below the word Basic > select a new icon to use | 04:57 |
| nit-wit | frederick85, have you tried another mouse to see if this happens? | 04:57 |
| frederick85 | nit-wit, no but it never does that on windows so it's something with ubuntu | 04:58 |
| MrAnthrope | lol omg. Thanks bastidrazor :) | 04:58 |
| greezmunkey | frederick85: what nit-wit said, or what i found with my system - moving the mouse to a differant usb port solved the issue for me. Wierd, I know... | 04:58 |

| shcherbak | john38: oki, you told me that you used this usb on second machine? | 05:09 |
| john38 | shcherbak, worked fine before i swapped HDD's from second machine to this machine and back | 05:09 |
| sexy | MPD has web server access right? | 05:10 |
| rypervenche | lapion: Have you done anything with your accounts recently? Go into your accounts and check the nicknames and everything. | 05:10 |
| john38 | shcherbak, when i reinstalled ubuntu on second machine it still showed up wired connection auto etho0 as if it was on this computer | 05:10 |
| lapion | rypervenche, nope no changes to accounts.. only regular updates with update mngr | 05:10 |
| rypervenche | lapion: Check the account info anyways to see if anything has changed. | 05:11 |
| shcherbak | john38: i thought that it is wlan0 not eth0 | 05:12 |
| john38 | shcherbak,arent you understanding me | 05:13 |
| lolzer | i am not able to see the sdcc software that i installed | 05:13 |

| lapion | Nothing is changed in my user settings.. | 05:16 |

| shcherbak | john38: if i get it right, on one of them adapter should work, right? | 05:17 |
| * lapion thinks the applet creator decided that if you can't switch users because one only has one user on the system the user name need not be visible.. | 05:17 | |

| shcherbak | john38: what about sudo ifconfig wlan0 up? | 05:28 |
| humanMeat | my remote server is listening on that port number? | 05:28 |
| john38 | shcherbak, should i reset router to factory settings and config again | 05:28 |
| humanMeat | how would I confirm this greezmunkey | 05:28 |
| humanMeat | apparently the output looks like it's giving me lip service | 05:29 |
| humanMeat | like from a remote place. | 05:29 |
| humanMeat | i'm in windows | 05:29 |
| greezmunkey | humanMeat: It looks like you are running OpenVPN on it, is that right? | 05:29 |
| humanMeat | yes.. | 05:29 |
| john38 | shcherbak, wlan0: error fetching interface information: Device not found | 05:29 |
| shcherbak | john38: no need, have you used adapter on Ubuntu at all? | 05:29 |
| humanMeat | the server is running. i can't seem to get my client to connect it keeps timing out or something | 05:29 |
| humanMeat | i made some windows firewall exceptions | 05:29 |
| greezmunkey | humanMeat: stop and restart the openvpn service, then try connecting to it again. | 05:30 |
| humanMeat | did that | 05:30 |
| john38 | shcherbak, yes this worked fine before i swapped HDD's and installed win 7 | 05:30 |
| shcherbak | john38: on 10.10 or 10.04? | 05:30 |
| john38 | shcherbak, 10.04.1 | 05:30 |

| CrunchyChewie | better yet, is anyone familiar with running deluge in daemon/thin client mode? | 05:35 |
| john38 | shcherbak, maybe win 7 disabled wireless lan with router | 05:35 |

| DasEi | Shoggoth: try : sudo apt-get remove --purge network-manager* --dry run | 05:56 |
| Dr_Willis | bhaskar: dont think it matters.. Virtualbox can easially use the Host machines network connection. I dont see the point in trying to get vbox to use a specific network. Unless you are refering to using 2 Dialup Modems.. that would be just.. old-skool... | 05:57 |
| DasEi | Shoggoth: that won't do anything but tell you would would be removed, output ? | 05:57 |

| DasEi | Shoggoth: so that would work, before (you still want connectivity) we look at your config : | 06:00 |
| AbhiJit | zhill29, i told you to use gdm2setup | 06:00 |
| Dr_Willis | zhill29: depends on what you want to change. You can tweak the theme/settings a little bit. theres also some alternative GDM screens in the repos. | 06:00 |

| zhill29 | Dr_Willis I want to be able to download the gdm themes from gnome-look and install them | 06:02 |
| AbhiJit | zhill29, also try art manager its in software center | 06:02 |

| DasEi | Shoggoth: how do you connect ? | 06:02 |
| DasEi | ifconfig tells you | 06:02 |
| Shoggoth | currently eth0 is connected | 06:02 |
| Shoggoth | but I want to bridge eth0 and eth1 together into br0 | 06:03 |
| greezmunkey | bhaskar: you would have to bond the modems using ml-ppp, but the issue is that unless your ISP is going to bond thoes two dialup connections at their end, it will not do you any good to do the work at your end. | 06:03 |

| Shoggoth | ie. when I'm done I don't want either eth0 or eth1 to have an address at all | 06:04 |

| MrAnthrope | haha awesome :) | 06:31 |
| MrAnthrope | You rock, saji89. | 06:31 |
| saji89 | MrAnthrope: No problem. :) | 06:31 |
| matthewg42 | I want to get a list of fixes/updates which have been applied to the fglrx package. I only just installed it, and I don't know how to ask apt/dpkg to tell me historical changes. | 06:31 |
| red2kic | matthewg42: "aptitude changelog fglrx" ? | 06:32 |
| matthewg42 | red2kic: I got to this in the manual page just as you said it! | 06:33 |
| matthewg42 | thanks! | 06:33 |
| linuxrunner | how can you change your session in 10.10? | 06:33 |
| matthewg42 | pity there have been no updates since I last tried it... I was hoping resume might have been fixed :( | 06:33 |
| red2kic | You're welcome. hoho | 06:33 |
| === AbhiJit_ is now known as AbhiJit | ||
| Dr_Willis | nimbiotics: check the package manager for 'fax' software yet? | 06:33 |
| AbhiJit | linuxrunner, which session? | 06:34 |
| red2kic | linuxrunner: Log out. I presume. | 06:34 |
| Dr_Willis | linuxrunner: you mean select KDE instead of gnome and so on? the GDM screen has a menu after you select your user. at the bottom. | 06:34 |
| DasEi | matthewg42: for apt need apt-log or a bash-scrpt, but dpkg has : /var/lib/dpkg/info | 06:34 |
| linuxrunner | That means I have to turn off auto login then? | 06:34 |
| Lavagolemking | Any ideas? | 06:34 |
| saji89 | linuxrunner: Which is your current Ubuntu version? | 06:35 |
| linuxrunner | Maverick | 06:35 |
| matthewg42 | desti: thanks! | 06:35 |
| red2kic | linuxrunner: Not really. You can log out right now and select a different session after autologin. | 06:35 |
| saji89 | linuxrunner: So its Ubuntu 10.10, so you'll login to 10.10 in the usual way. | 06:36 |
| linuxrunner | When I click on my name in GDM, it auto-loads. No chance to change anything. | 06:36 |
| Dr_Willis | linuxrunner: it rembers your last selected.. logout. change.. its the default. | 06:36 |
| Dr_Willis | linuxrunner: check menu items at the bottom. You have your set up with no password or somthing? | 06:36 |
| Dr_Willis | linuxrunner: wha tare you wanting it to change to? | 06:36 |
| linuxrunner | Lubuntu | 06:36 |
| Dr_Willis | the .dmrc file has the default linuxrunner . but i dont know what to chang it to select Lubuntu. | 06:37 |
| saji89 | linuxrunner: I think it may be beacuse you don't have a password. Usually you're shown the options when you click on your name and you're prompted to enter your password. | 06:37 |
| Dr_Willis | #lubuntu may know | 06:37 |
| linuxrunner | I have a password, but I have auto-login set under admin > Login Screen | 06:38 |
| DasEi | tempeldirne: pm you ? | 06:38 |
| Dr_Willis | ive never noticed GDM auto-logging in when i just select a user.. ive always had to enter a password. it would Login the first time automatically. but after i logged out. it would wask | 06:38 |
| saji89 | linuxrunner: Auto login means you're happy with the surrent settings. If you need any change in it, disable auto login, chnage the ones you need to, via gdm and then enable auto login again. | 06:39 |
| Dr_Willis | I think theres other autologin settings that may change teh bahaivor. | 06:39 |
| tempeldirne | DasEi, hm? | 06:39 |
| linuxrunner | Alright, so auto-login has to be disabled. At least I know.. | 06:39 |
| saji89 | linuxrunner: Yep try it. SO what is it exactly that you want to change in the GDM options? | 06:40 |
| Dr_Willis | acually the Login Tool here in System -> admin. has a pull down for what 'default window manager' to use. it seems | 06:40 |
| saji89 | Dr_Willis: Actually linuxrunner hasn't told us what exactly he wants to change in his login behaviour. | 06:40 |
| linuxrunner | I don't want to change the changing the default session. | 06:40 |
| saji89 | linuxrunner: MEans? | 06:41 |
| linuxrunner | I was hoping for a quick and easy way to change sessions... | 06:41 |
| saji89 | linuxrunner: Sorry. That means? | 06:41 |
| saji89 | linuxrunner: Ok. Now I got it. Just disable auto login and then you have your thing.. :) | 06:41 |
| linuxrunner | that's what I was going to do, but I just wanted to check... thanks | 06:42 |
| Dr_Willis | linuxrunner: edit your users .dmrc is another way | 06:42 |
| saji89 | linuxrunner: No problem. | 06:42 |
| nikolam | I get this message while trying to install dnsmasq: WARNING: The following packages cannot be authenticated! | 06:43 |
| nikolam | dnsmasq Install these packages without verification [y/N]? ^C What was going on with signatures? | 06:43 |
| nikolam | I am on LTS but it should come from default repo, right? | 06:44 |
| coz_ | nikolam, did you by chance put in a repo manually? | 06:44 |
| coz_ | nikolam, although that package is listed in the repository let me try to install it hold on | 06:45 |
| coz_ | nikolam, I just installed that package on lucid from synaptic with no errors | 06:46 |
| saji89 | nikolam: Had you done a fresh install of the LTS or an upgrade to the LTS? | 06:46 |
| Dr_Willis | could be the keys got changed or the package got hacked. or somthign odd with the keyservers. | 06:46 |
| coz_ | well it installed here with no errors | 06:47 |
| Dr_Willis | or it got updated. and dident get signed right. | 06:47 |

| saji89 | Dr_Willis: coz_ Can't something have gone wrong during a distribution upgrade to the LTS? | 06:47 |
| coz_ | saji89, many things can go wrong with an upgrade,, I never suggest upgrades but rather clean installs for that reason | 06:48 |
| Dr_Willis | saji89: it ould i guess.. some keys didetn get signed.. but i guess one could try to install other packages an dsee if they report the same issue. | 06:48 |
| Dr_Willis | I rarely upgrade. | 06:48 |
| saji89 | Dr_Willis: Ya that's a way.. | 06:48 |
| === Squirrely|BNC| is now known as Squirrely | ||
| saji89 | nikolam: try installing some other package from the LTS repository and check whether it shows you the same warning. | 06:49 |
| coz_ | yeah one out of thousands :) | 06:49 |
| saji89 | Dr_Willis: Me too. I also do fresh install nowadays. Especially with my love for PPA's.. :) | 06:49 |
| al_nz1 | if I have a text file list of words, like "West Avenue" on one line, how would I remove the space to just get "WestAvenue" ? | 06:51 |
| Dr_Willis | al_nz1: awk, sed, tr, | 06:52 |
| Dr_Willis | or perl, or proberly a dozen other ways. | 06:52 |
| al_nz1 | will google those ta | 06:52 |
| rww | al_nz1: sed -i 's/ //g' nameoffile | 06:53 |
| Dr_Willis | sed may be the easisets. google for 'sed examples' theres 1000's of pages with them | 06:53 |
| yagoo | Dr_Willis, or u can simply say rtfm :p | 06:53 |
| al_nz1 | rww: ta | 06:53 |
| rww | -i changes the file, remove it if you just want to use stdout | 06:54 |
| Dr_Willis | found some '100 sed tricks' thing the other day that gave decent examples. | 06:54 |
| al_nz1 | rww: what if I have "Able Tasman Street" and I want to remove "Street altogether and have "Able Tasman" become "AbleTasman" ? | 06:54 |
| Dr_Willis | al_nz1: then you got to start scripting a littel bit. :) | 06:55 |
| Lavagolemking | al_nz1: sed s/West\ Avenue/WestAvenue/ NAME_OF_TEXT_FILE | 06:55 |
| rww | al_nz1: the format of the part inside 'quotes' is s/old thing/new thing/, and the g on the end means "replace all on the line, not just the first occurance" | 06:55 |
| Dr_Willis | regular explressions will also be handy tolearn. | 06:55 |
| yagoo | Dr_Willis, /to learn/tolearn | 06:55 |
| yagoo | Dr_Willis, you forgot the " " space!! | 06:55 |
| al_nz1 | hmmm | 06:56 |
| Dr_Willis | sed ate it... | 06:56 |
| siliconesoul | hello to all ;) | 06:56 |
| awanti | how to import .xml file from Openoffice database application | 06:56 |
| Aeronius | Greetings! Just (impulsively) bought a Dell Studio 1558 with 6GB RAM and an arrandale i5-460M processor. As I'm a huge Ubuntu fanboy, I really need it to work with Ubuntu. Am I in trouble? | 06:56 |
| yagoo | awanti, .xml file is a textfile... | 06:56 |
| Lavagolemking | Anyone have any ideas on getting Ubuntu to stop trying to make me upgrade away from the LTS version? | 06:56 |
| yagoo | Lavagolemking, turn off auto-updating? | 06:57 |
| red2kic | Aeronius: Use a LiveCD to test everything? | 06:57 |
| Aeronius | nope, it's being shipped soon | 06:57 |
| yagoo | Aeronius, can you spare your old machine for me :) | 06:57 |
| yagoo | Aeronius, some 6 gig sounds good to me there :) | 06:57 |
| yagoo | Aeronius, use the x86-64 ubuntu version download | 06:58 |
| Aeronius | I can find a couple of bug notes in the forums but they're small issues | 06:59 |
| al_nz1 | rww: so for the second example I need scripting? | 06:59 |
| Aeronius | so can I assume same model number works? | 06:59 |
| awanti | can i import .xml file on ubuntu (opnen office Base) | 06:59 |
| Aeronius | yagoo: that was another issue I'm considering, do I do 64 bit or not? | 06:59 |
| Lavagolemking | yagoo: Not like they'll notice, (half of IT doesn't know what "Linux" is) but they require us to have automatic updates to be on my school's network. Automatic updates would be ideal. | 06:59 |
| rww | al_nz1: s/ Street//g, assuming you want all occurances of Steet gone. | 06:59 |
| Dr_Willis | Aeronius: i alwyas use 64bit if the hardware supports it. | 07:00 |
| yagoo | Aeronius, that chip is 64bit.. might as well use the 64bit kernel | 07:00 |
| al_nz1 | rww: the problem is the list contains streets, avenues, ways, places etc, so I want everything after the first space gone..... | 07:00 |
| Dr_Willis | Aeronius: only real reason i woudl go 32bit - is if you had some apt-cacher machine setup and the rest of the lan is 32bit allready. :) | 07:00 |
| matthewg42 | my flash has just this evening started playing audio about 4 octaves too low! | 07:00 |
| al_nz1 | rww: otherwise I need to code for every road/place/street type etc | 07:01 |
| Dr_Willis | al_nz1: now you are talking in termes that 'regular expressions can use' :) | 07:01 |
| yagoo | Aeronius, I would recommmend leaving a reservation space for 32bit ubuntu install.. for just in case you need or having a hard time installing some bit 32bit app u need on linux | 07:01 |
| Aeronius | Dr_Willis: ok, so why is the download page still recommending 32bit? | 07:01 |
| Dr_Willis | al_nz1: After teh first space? or Befor the first space? | 07:01 |
| rww | al_nz1: That's doable in sed with regular expressions, but I'm going to sleep now, so someone else can show you. | 07:01 |
| yagoo | Aeronius, but u can run 32bit apps on 64bit linux | 07:01 |
| Dr_Willis | Aeronius: 'idiot proofing' | 07:01 |
| awanti | not in textfile it is in microsoft .xml file | 07:01 |
| matthewg42 | anyone else getting crazy low pitched audio with flash videos (e.g. youtube)? | 07:01 |
| al_nz1 | rww: ok | 07:01 |
| al_nz1 | Dr_Willis, after the space | 07:01 |
| netwrkspider | hi | 07:01 |
| matthewg42 | other apps working fine... vlc and such. | 07:01 |
| Dr_Willis | Aeronius: so people that have NO idea what 64/32bit means.. download one that will at least work. | 07:01 |
| al_nz1 | sounds like I just need to red up on sed | 07:01 |
| Dr_Willis | al_nz1: sed can do that also i imagine. | 07:02 |
| al_nz1 | red=read | 07:02 |
| Aeronius | I can see they're no longer saying that 64 isn't for daily use any more | 07:02 |
| Aeronius | that's cool | 07:02 |
| Dr_Willis | al_nz1: or awk can print just the first word of each line.. but that wasent what you were asking to do earlier. | 07:02 |
| al_nz1 | Dr_Willis, I need to manipulte this file in a number of ways... | 07:02 |
| yagoo | Aeronius, you can read the previous options.. it's your call.. but 64bit is the way of the future so i'd recommend installing it... | 07:02 |
| Aeronius | ok, ok I'll do it! | 07:03 |
| Dr_Willis | http://ubuntu-user.com/Online/Blogs/Marcel-Gagne-Orbiting-Planet-buntu/Stop-Apologizing-For-Linux | 07:03 |
| Dr_Willis | al_nz1: AWK may be a smarter tool to use then for complex changes. | 07:03 |
| Aeronius | you got to understand, I take a long time to make these kind of decisions | 07:03 |
| awanti | plz. any budy can help me how to import microsoft excel file into Opneoffice Base | 07:03 |
| Dr_Willis | Aeronius: check that url above for some inro on the 'reccomended 32bit' astuff. | 07:03 |
| greezmunkey | Aeronius: yet you impulsively bought the hardware... | 07:04 |
| Dr_Willis | awanti: check the OO help files/docs to see if it can be done? theres not some file -> import item in the menus? | 07:04 |
| Dr_Willis | awanti: what have you even tried? | 07:04 |
| * yagoo would install adobe flash 64bit which came out sept20 on a new system... | 07:05 | |
| yagoo | booya! | 07:06 |
| alesan | hi | 07:06 |
| alesan | so I am installing updating my mom's PC to ubuntu 9.10 remotely | 07:06 |
| coz_ | awanti, dont you want to open that with openoffice calc ? | 07:06 |
| matthewg42 | so weird.... audio is growly and low in flash on firefox only. I noticed an update to flash this evening. | 07:06 |
| alesan | now my question is: why ubuntu changes GUI and colors every time? isn't this crazy? my mom is completely lost now | 07:07 |
| matthewg42 | chrome has it's own install of flash, right? | 07:07 |
| Dr_Willis | matthewg42: i noticed a update to the 'flash installer' but im not sure if that updated flash or not | 07:07 |
| alesan | gdm is completely new (and much worse than before) | 07:07 |
| matthewg42 | Dr_Willis: aha, yes | 07:07 |
| AbhiJit | !upgrade | 07:07 |
| ubottu | For upgrading, see the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes - see also http://www.ubuntu.com/desktop/get-ubuntu/upgrade | 07:07 |
| Dr_Willis | alesan: the users home settings shouldent have changed.. Unless i guess shes using the default theme. | 07:08 |
| alesan | Dr_Willis, no ok but now the window frame is a different color and gdm is completely different | 07:08 |
| Dr_Willis | alesan: theres been a move to gdm2, and other changes. yes. | 07:08 |
| alesan | is 10.04 much different from 9.10? | 07:08 |
| Dr_Willis | alesan: yes. | 07:08 |
| alesan | I usu kubuntu myself and I have my own problems with kde4 | 07:09 |
| greezmunkey | heh | 07:09 |
| Dr_Willis | kubuntu 10.10 is VERY nice and useable. | 07:09 |
| alesan | Dr_Willis, I am not even tihnking to go to 10.10 | 07:09 |
| Dr_Willis | lots of nice new features and stability now. Ive rarely seen a crash in it. (i cant even think of any i have seen) | 07:09 |
| alesan | I will stay with the LTS version | 07:09 |
| matthewg42 | I uninstalled flashplugin-installer and reinstalled it. fresh .mozilla directory & deleted ~/.macromedia... still same thing. weird! | 07:09 |
| Dr_Willis | I dont see much to gain from a home/desktop use sticking to LTS. but do what you want. | 07:09 |
| alesan | so I was asking if 10.04 is not much different than 9.10 or if I will find surprises | 07:10 |
| awanti | actually i was using ms access i have saved all files now i am unable to open that ms database files in Ubuntu. Now i am trying to import that .xml whiles | 07:10 |
| Aeronius | greezmunkey: You're right, I impulsively bought the hardware, for around 608 bucks. I'll bet you would too... | 07:10 |
| awanti | .xml files | 07:10 |
| alesan | Dr_Willis, the problem is that every 6 months or so, if you do not upgrade, you get warnings all the time the system is not update anymore | 07:10 |
| alesan | and my mom freaks out | 07:10 |
| alesan | and I live on another continent | 07:10 |
| Dr_Willis | alesan: you could disable the warnings i guess. | 07:10 |
| alesan | Dr_Willis, and keep a system not updated? will you repeat that when some ubuntu op is around? | 07:11 |
| coz_ | alesan, ah well in all honesy I reverted to back to 10.04 LTS for sound drivers reasons otherwise i would be on 10.10 | 07:11 |
| Dr_Willis | alesan: theres a setting to automatically install security updated if you want. | 07:11 |
| greezmunkey | alesan: so setup remote access into the box so you can help her out while you are away. That may make her feel better aboutit. | 07:11 |
| alesan | Dr_Willis, on 9.04? | 07:11 |
| Dr_Willis | whats the point in a warning if shes trained to hit 'cancle' all the time. | 07:11 |
| iflema | alesan put ya old girl on a LTS release... 10.04 is a LTS.... 3 years stay same give/take.... | 07:12 |
| alesan | greezmunkey, of course I setup a ssh tunnel for vnc | 07:12 |
| alesan | iflema, exactly, that is what I will do | 07:12 |
| greezmunkey | alesan: there you are :) | 07:12 |
| matthewg42 | solved it, in a very weird way... firefox's volume was not at 100% in kmix (I'm using kubunbu), as soon as I changed the volume, the sound corruption fixed itself. I suspect a problem with pulse. | 07:12 |
| coz_ | awanti, see if any of these open with open office http://www.exinfm.com/free_spreadsheets.html | 07:12 |

| WXZ | I changed the icon of the folder already | 07:15 |
| iflema | alesan 10.04 will do both those tasks... and a nice new ui change... and buttons can go back on the right if you wish ;) | 07:15 |
| greezmunkey | alesan: there are hardware skype phones available now, pretty cheap too. Set her up with one of those, and half of your issues are solved. | 07:15 |
| alesan | iflema, nooo 10.04 is the one that is like a MAC? | 07:15 |
| Dr_Willis | I got a skype phone that uses wifi. - Dont need a pc. just a router. | 07:15 |
| alesan | greezmunkey, the quality of those phones is very low | 07:15 |
| alesan | they do not have the webcam | 07:15 |
| iflema | alesan you can click a couple o time and have it look like karmic 9.10 no dramas | 07:16 |
| alesan | nor the chat, that is the one we use most often :) | 07:16 |
| greezmunkey | Dr_Willis: exactly, and video calling in a dedicated hardware device is already here as well. | 07:16 |

| greezmunkey | Dr_Willis: get two - one for each eye. | 07:16 |
| alesan | Dr_Willis, my mom does not have wifi | 07:17 |
| Dr_Willis | break down and get her a $30 router then. :) | 07:17 |
| Dr_Willis | wife carried the Skype phone to the store the other day.. frogot it wasent a cell phone. | 07:17 |
| shmup | rofl | 07:17 |
| Dr_Willis | dident work to good once wh3e was out of range. :) | 07:17 |
| Gerwin | alesan: The animal with horns would be Intrepid Ibex :x? | 07:17 |
| alesan | she has the PC connected with ethernet to a 5GHz powerstation and has a link of 10km to the top of a nearby mountain where the signal bounces back to the city and gets internet access | 07:18 |
| Dr_Willis | !ibex | 07:18 |
| ubottu | Ubuntu 8.10 (Intrepid Ibex) was the ninth release of Ubuntu. End Of Life: April 30th, 2010. See !eol and !upgrade for more details. | 07:18 |
| shmup | so, on windows i'm used to using winscp, and when editing a file, and saving, it automatically uploads. | 07:18 |
| alesan | Gerwin, yes, what was the one before that | 07:18 |
| netwrkspider | dr.. Install skype on ur mobile no need to buy skype phone | 07:18 |
| shmup | i'm looking for something similar on ubuntu. firezilla, gftp, none of these will automatically upload. any ideas? | 07:18 |
| Dr_Willis | netwrkspider: she dont like the fancy new phones.. :) | 07:18 |
| alesan | h... what was the ubuntu version beginning with h... | 07:19 |
| Silicone | interesting thinks pages from ubuntu doe's load as it should... why? tried 2 browsers already | 07:19 |
| netwrkspider | dr : lol | 07:19 |
| Gerwin | alesan: Hardy Hedgehog | 07:19 |
| Gerwin | !hardy > alesan | 07:19 |
| ubottu | alesan, please see my private message | 07:19 |
| Gerwin | Hmm | 07:19 |
| Gerwin | Sorry for that | 07:19 |
| Dr_Willis | shmup: you could always mount the remopte location via the sshfuse or fusessh tools, and then the ssh remote appears as a local directory. so ANY app can do that. | 07:19 |
| Silicone | doesn't | 07:19 |
| coz_ | shmup, I believe winscp works under wine | 07:19 |
| shmup | yeah Dr_Willis, someone did recommend that to me. | 07:19 |
| alesan | yes hardy was the one she liked best: fast, easy, no things | 07:20 |
| alesan | ok | 07:20 |
| hp | ai | 07:20 |
| shmup | and coz_ actually it does, but i'm relatively new, and having a hard time specifying gvim as the editor | 07:20 |
| shmup | from within winscp | 07:20 |
| shmup | i could browse for it, but i can't find where gvim is ~.~ | 07:20 |
| veovis1 | shmup: I'm having trouble with the name, but I remember something that could do that | 07:20 |
| alesan | anyway: somebody has a link how to reset the intercae of 10.04 to a normal one? I need that before I start :) | 07:20 |
| shmup | rack that brain, veovis1 :D | 07:20 |
| alesan | interface | 07:20 |
| coz_ | shmup, how about grsync | 07:20 |
| WXZ | how do you change an icon in the places menu | 07:20 |
| Dr_Willis | shmup: you got xming or somtning setup on the windows box to display gvim? | 07:20 |
| xangua | alesan: normal interface¿ | 07:20 |
| coz_ | shmup, or | 07:20 |
| shmup | gvim is also on windows | 07:21 |

| benji_ | Hi, how ubuntu is supposed to be used concerning the major upgrades ? The preferred way is to reinstall the whole OS ? (I am running Karmic Koala and the support for it ends in April) | 07:21 |
| shmup | i didn't like that method, coz. not sure why. i might try what doc said, and mount. | 07:21 |

| xangua | benji_: upgradee to lucid lynx | 07:21 |
| shmup | grsync | 07:21 |
| benji_ | xangua, how do you do that? | 07:21 |
| WXZ | xangua: so even if I change the theme, it'll still look like a "normal" folder | 07:21 |
| coz_ | shmup, http://themediahost.de/secpanel/ | 07:21 |
| xangua | benji_: just open the update manager, should be aviable since a long time ago | 07:22 |
| Silicone | So, somebody knows what it might be? Doesn't load pages as it should... no graphic.. but not all pages.. that is strange. | 07:22 |

| Dr_Willis | Ill stick with my Nvidia drivers.. and disable the splash screen. :) | 07:25 |

| webresourc | but betbeans says that the directory is not writable | 07:43 |
| Dr_Willis | archana8763: personally i would install openssh on the machines and use scp. or samba. | 07:43 |

| Dr_Willis | droopal: this is a comercial dvd? | 07:43 |
| droopal | yes it is | 07:44 |

| archana8763 | Dr_Willis, Actually , this method worked on previous ubunt... but not in this... At that time, i just isntaleld apache, created symbolic link, shared a directory... but not now... :( | 07:44 |
| droopal | ok, thank you, will give it a try, if I can work it out. | 07:45 |
| webresourc | I did that chmod -R +w ./www/ | 07:46 |

| nomad99 | MalelDraconis: try this maybe http://ubuntusite.com/gyachie-yahoo-messenger-for-linux/ | 07:52 |
| sparr | archana8763: you're going to have to be a lot more specific | 07:52 |
| archana8763 | sparr, i want to share a ntfs drive with a symboliv link in /vaw/www/share... the browser says 403 forbidden no p[ermission error. | 07:53 |
| sparr | does the user under which your apache process runs have read permission to the ntfs drive? | 07:54 |
| archana8763 | sparr, Yes, from this useraccount, I can open, edit , delete all the files in the ntfs drives.. | 07:54 |
| Dr_Willis | NTFS adds a whole new layer of issues.. :) | 07:54 |
| sparr | is there an entry in error_log for the attempt? | 07:54 |
| sparr | have you tried #httpd ? | 07:54 |
| Dr_Willis | archana8763: you might need to mount the ntfs via fstab. so the uid/gid/umask can be set to allow ALL users full access. | 07:55 |
| archana8763 | sparr, where is the error_log file in my ubuntu? | 07:55 |
| Dr_Willis | archana8763: also that would mount the ntfs at boot time. Not on 'first access' by a user. | 07:55 |
| sparr | probably /var/log/httpd but maybe /var/log/apache or /var/log/apache2 | 07:56 |
| nomad99 | MalelDraconis: try here https://launchpad.net/~loell/+archive/ppa | 07:56 |
| archana8763 | sparr, first two files are empty. third one does not exist. | 07:57 |
| archana8763 | Dr_Willis, I once had all my ntfs drives in fstab and it only made the boot-time tooo slow. :( | 07:57 |
| sparr | then "httpd -S" to find the config file, edit the config file to find the log directory | 07:57 |
| archana8763 | httpd -S says no command found. | 07:58 |
| archana8763 | Dr_Willis, and with lot of error mesasges/ | 07:58 |
| archana8763 | sparr, I did the same method in 10.4 and it just worked.. After adding symbolic link, I was able to access from my laptop... | 07:59 |
| sparr | then find the httpd binary and try again | 07:59 |

| archana8763 | Dr_Willis, My ntfs drives gave many error messages when i had added it fstab. | 08:05 |
| sparr | droopal: cp film /media/drive | 08:05 |
| Dr_Willis | archana8763: try mounting it bya hand with the ntfs.3g command and some differnt options. see if you can get iot working. | 08:05 |
| Dr_Willis | archana8763: i would guess you were doing somthing wrong then. | 08:06 |
| Dr_Willis | droopal: copy a file to a external hd same as you copy t anywhere else.. | 08:06 |
| Aeronius | sparr: splain your disk benchmark comment | 08:06 |
| droopal | I'm copying from dvd so how would I do that, baring in mind, I am not too sure about the terminal | 08:06 |
| droopal | which software do I use | 08:06 |
| sparr | Aeronius: the 2x increase in speed on cpu-intensive tasks makes sense. the disk benchmark thing is just weird | 08:06 |
| archana8763 | sparr, the drive is full and i have no extra space to move those files out and then to convert to another file system... | 08:06 |
| Dr_Willis | droopal: you mean to ask how to 'rip' a video dvd to a movie.avi file? | 08:06 |
| droopal | oh yes | 08:07 |
| droopal | sorry | 08:07 |
| sparr | droopal: you're copying a video dvd? that's a lot more complex | 08:07 |
| archana8763 | sparr, It says no permission. how do i grant permission then? | 08:07 |
| Dr_Willis | droopal: use handbreak tool is one way. | 08:07 |
| Dr_Willis | droopal: k9copy also can do it. | 08:07 |
| droopal | where do I get those from? | 08:07 |

| archana8763 | sparr thanks for your replies.. | 08:08 |

| justin_ | Hey everyone | 08:10 |
| xuekan | sparr:so is that means i cann't visit that site normally with proxy? | 08:11 |
| droopal | Dr_Willis: will k9copy work on Ubuntu, as I am not using KDE | 08:11 |

| justin_ | I've just installed ubuntu 10.10 64bit, and I installed the restricted nvidia drivers, and after that my theme seems to have reverted to a much older style with the exception of the window decoration. Any idea what might be causing that? | 08:19 |
| justin_ | http://i.imgur.com/o9J6O.jpg | 08:21 |
| justin_ | ^To make my issue more clear | 08:21 |
| Dr_Willis | justin_: play with the theme settings. see if you can make it go to how you like. the nvida drivs shouldebnt alter the users settings at all. | 08:21 |
| justin_ | Yeah, I realize they shouldn't alter anything | 08:21 |
| justin_ | That's why I was concerned | 08:21 |
| Dr_Willis | I dont even see whats the issue in the snapshot. :) | 08:22 |
| justin_ | I haven't been able to get anything but the window decoration to change | 08:22 |
| Dr_Willis | but i always tewek my theme. | 08:22 |
| justin_ | Ahh | 08:22 |
| justin_ | Well | 08:22 |
| justin_ | Allow me to explain lol | 08:22 |
| Dr_Willis | justin_: ive seen where for some odd reason theme settings dont change untill one logs out. | 08:22 |
| Dr_Willis | then they would start working again. | 08:22 |
| justin_ | Hmm... well, I've restarted a couple times since then | 08:22 |
| justin_ | It hasn't changed back | 08:22 |
| justin_ | Even after messing with the appearance settings | 08:22 |
| Dr_Willis | Ive seen where people accidently run stuff as root and have root owned config files in their homes also. | 08:23 |
| Dr_Willis | see if the stuff works with a new user as a test. | 08:23 |
| justin_ | I already did that. No such luck | 08:23 |
| justin_ | =/ | 08:23 |
| Dr_Willis | so even with a new user - the settings dont change? | 08:24 |
| Dr_Willis | that is odd. | 08:24 |
| justin_ | Yeah, very odd | 08:24 |
| justin_ | =/ | 08:24 |
| Dr_Willis | You could run gnome-appearance-properties from a terminal. and look for messages. | 08:24 |
| Dr_Willis | could also try disabling compiz as a test/ | 08:24 |
| justin_ | Hmm | 08:25 |
| justin_ | I just disabled compiz, and I still can't get the panels or any of the other stylings to change | 08:25 |
| justin_ | Only the window decoration | 08:25 |
| justin_ | D: | 08:25 |
| justin_ | No strange messages from gnome-appearance-properties either | 08:26 |
| Dr_Willis | you are using the settings under teh customize button? or just the theme tool? | 08:26 |
| justin_ | I've tried both | 08:26 |
| Dr_Willis | reboot! Oh wait this isent #windows ... | 08:27 |
| sinthetek | does anyone know how to make terminal history get saved permanently? | 08:28 |
| === Shishire is now known as Shishire|Away | ||
| sinthetek | every time i close a terminal, my command history apparently gets deleted | 08:28 |
| justin_ | sorry about that, xchat just stopped letting me input text .__. | 08:28 |
| Dr_Willis | sinthetek: check your bash settings and the permissions of /home/USERNAME/.bash_history | 08:29 |
| jhanarato | hi folks :-) | 08:31 |
| droopal | Dr_Willis: I think its working, I am using k9copy, at least it seems to be copying directly to the external hd at the moment, I will know for definate if it has when I try to play it back. | 08:32 |
| palint240 | pls | 08:32 |
| palint240 | gallium? | 08:32 |
| palint240 | chanel ? | 08:32 |
| Dr_Willis | droopal: i tend to use k9cpy to make a .iso backup. vlc and other players can play those. | 08:32 |
| palint240 | what is the chanel of gallium | 08:32 |
| Dr_Willis | palint240: try #gallium | 08:33 |

| Besogon | ) | 08:40 |
| bagira | Besogon, i imagine that would be better than a used one | 08:41 |
| bagira | im weird about germs | 08:41 |
| Silicone | yo! Skype web site does't work! It doesn't render the css or shows images! Tried everything . Chrome FF Opera it doesn't work only here . In windows everything is workin! | 08:41 |
| bagira | but yeah, when I run sbopkg -i gdm, it returns "Error 1", how to fix? | 08:41 |
| Silicone | anygivenname, format everything! = | 08:42 |
| Silicone | yo! Skype web site does't work! It doesn't render the css or shows images! Tried everything . Chrome FF Opera it doesn't work only here . In windows everything is workin! | 08:42 |
| SwedeMike | Silicone: !repeat | 08:43 |
| SwedeMike | !repeat | Silicone | 08:43 |
| ubottu | Silicone: Don't feel ignored and repeat your question quickly; if nobody knows your answer, nobody will answer you. While you wait, try searching https://help.ubuntu.com or http://ubuntuforums.org or http://askubuntu.com/ | 08:43 |
| bagira | does anyone know why sbopkg is returning an error for gdm? after the error it's telling me that GDM is not in the slackbuilds repo | 08:43 |
| anygivenname | no way | 08:43 |
| bazhang | bagira, this is not slackware | 08:43 |
| bagira | bazhang, say what? | 08:43 |
| bazhang | bagira, wrong channel | 08:43 |
| bagira | wait. I'm on slackware? | 08:44 |
| Silicone | doesn't any one knows why the CSS on skype web-site is not working?? | 08:44 |
| SwedeMike | anygivenname: you have to find something that can resize your partitions as well, I'd recommend creating a new partition and copying /home there and mount it as /home | 08:44 |
| luca__ | !list | 08:44 |
| ubottu | This is not a file sharing channel (or network); be sure to read the channel topic. If you're looking for information about me, type « /msg ubottu !bot » | 08:44 |
| Silicone | iall sites works well... except skype, youtube, hotmail | 08:44 |
| bagira | Ah. THAT WOULD EXPLAIN WHY EVERYTHING _WORKS_! | 08:44 |
| bazhang | bagira, please take chat elsewhere | 08:45 |
| Silicone | SwedeMike so you know what can be? | 08:45 |
| Dr_Willis | anygivenname: youmay want to use gparted to resize the partiions | 08:46 |
| FishFace | 1 MB/sec transferring large files from SATA drive to external USB IDE in a external case. Case is cool. Why would this be so slow? | 08:46 |
| Silicone | you may look how skype is displayed... http://yfrog.com/7bscreenshotsvqp | 08:46 |
| Dr_Willis | Im convinced.. im switching to slackware.. oh wait.. its lacking in features.. guess not. :) | 08:46 |
| anygivenname | Dr_Willis: will this format my existing partiion ? | 08:46 |
| Dr_Willis | anygivenname: gparted can RESIZE existing partitions. | 08:46 |
| Dr_Willis | anygivenname: your HD proberly looks like this --> (sda1 40gb) (a LOT of unallocated space) | 08:47 |
| veovis1 | But be careful you do just resize | 08:47 |
| oliver_ | hi | 08:47 |
| oliver_ | i have got a question | 08:47 |
| oliver_ | ich habe eine frage | 08:47 |
| veovis1 | !ask | 08:47 |
| ubottu | Please don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line and in the channel, so that others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) | 08:47 |
| oliver_ | J'ai une question | 08:47 |
| Dr_Willis | anygivenname: youmay want to make a /home partition if you got the space now also. | 08:47 |
| oliver_ | ok | 08:47 |
| oliver_ | : | 08:47 |
| oliver_ | i have got a problem with the "abhängikheitsbaum" | 08:48 |
| xixor | Hi everyone, a quick question. Anyone know how I can free as much memory as possible? I've already stopped X with sudo /etc/init.d/kdm stop and I am at the console, and ubuntu is using 411MB memory still. Anyone have suggestions on how to reduce this further? I am trying to factor a huge matrix for some numerical analysis and I need to free up as much of my 6GB as possible... thanks! :) | 08:48 |
| bazhang | oliver_, english here please | 08:48 |
| anygivenname | how do I expand the filesystem to fill that partition without losing data ? | 08:49 |
| Silicone | does anybody knows what to do? when i try to access several sites.... they are displayed this way....http://yfrog.com/evscreenshot1uyp | 08:49 |
| Keith-BlindUser | Hi everyone. I need some assistance. I've just rebooted into Windows in order to talk with you folks. I was messing around somehow in the sound prefferneces under system, and now I dn't get the Ubuntu drumb noise, no log-in sound, etc. No bell or whatever in Gnome-terminal, etc. How do I fix that? And no, the mute audio isn't selected, nor is "no sound" either. | 08:50 |
| Silicone | from win everything works well | 08:50 |
| Keith-BlindUser | "Ubuntu" was selected in the theme box or whatever that is, but still no go at all. | 08:50 |
| dpreacher | I've a problem with getting a freeagent drive detected and mounted on ubuntu karmic koala. details -> http://wrttn.me/953e9b/ | 08:50 |

| Silicone | http://yfrog.com/evscreenshot1uyp | 08:51 |
| anygivenname | I installed gparted....cant find it | 08:51 |
| bazhang | Silicone, dont repeat so often, every ten minutes or so should do | 08:51 |
| anygivenname | in the apps | 08:51 |
| Silicone | bazhang, repeated just to display link normal, so everybody can see it better | 08:52 |
| anygivenname | ah it went to system/adm | 08:52 |
| Keith-BlindUser | I was in the sound effects tab also. | 08:52 |
| Keith-BlindUser | When I lost the "ding" x login etc. But now it's gone. *sighs* | 08:53 |
| cryptodira | does anyone have the solution for making the backlit keyboard work beyond bootup ?? toshiba satellite, AMD, lucid. | 08:53 |
| Silicone | nobody answer | 08:54 |
| Dr_Willis | cryptodira: check the forums for your exact make laptop. see if any one else has had an issue/fix's | 08:56 |
| Dr_Willis | Silicone: looks like flash may be crashing or somthing. | 08:57 |
| Silicone | does anybody knows what to do? when i try to access several sites.... they are displayed this way.... | 08:58 |
| Silicone | http://yfrog.com/evscreenshot1uyp | 08:58 |
| Silicone | Dr_Willis, also on skype.com? they also use flash? | 08:58 |
| bourke | hi, how can I tell what libraries an executable is linked against? | 09:00 |
| Dr_Willis | Silicone: try a differnt browser. run browsers from terminal, look for error messages.. is about all i can suggest | 09:00 |
| anygivenname | i installed gparted.....is there a way to expand the partition without losing data ? | 09:01 |
| Silicone | Dr_Willis, i tried FF, Opera, Chromium.. the same issue, from windows everything it's okay... also rune browser from terminal... how to look at error messages? | 09:01 |
| bazhang | anygivenname, to a disk you are current;ly using/have mounted? | 09:02 |
| anygivenname | bazhang: my old hdd was 40gb...my new hdd is 500gb...i used clonezilla to copy the old o the new so as to boot exactly the same....now discovered it used only 40gb out of the 500gb | 09:04 |
| FishFace | Silicone: I have no answer. But just asking. You see no images on any sites right? | 09:04 |
| Silicone | FishFace, nope, just on serveral... | 09:04 |
| bazhang | anygivenname, to a disk you are currently using/have mounted? | 09:04 |
| anygivenname | yes | 09:04 |
| bazhang | anygivenname, boot from livecd or gparted livecd then | 09:05 |
| Silicone | FishFace, also not just images are not show, site don't display items in the order as it should | 09:05 |
| Silicone | FishFace, http://yfrog.com/evscreenshot1uyp here you can see how it displays | 09:06 |
| cryptodira | Dr_Willis: seems that plenty of folks have the backlit keyboard problem.... and not just with toshiba products.... the consensus is that disabling ACPI will allow the backlight to work... but kill plenty of other things.... is there a "rewards" program in the ubuntu world, where a bounty can be paid for a solution to this problem?? | 09:06 |
| anygivenname | how do I create gparted livecd ? | 09:06 |
| FishFace | Silicone: OK. Well, good luck fixing it. If it was just Firefox I might be able to help. Since its all browsers, I don't know. | 09:06 |
| bazhang | anygivenname, download the iso, burn to cd | 09:06 |
| Silicone | FishFace, thx, will try to.... | 09:06 |
| anygivenname | I should not lose data expanding the partition, should I ? | 09:07 |
| anygivenname | I mean doing it thruh bootable disk | 09:07 |
| bazhang | anygivenname, no guarantees, make backups if you wish to be 100% certain. boot from gparted live cd and resize | 09:07 |
| anygivenname | bazhang: then it is safer to just create another parttion with the unallocated 460GB | 09:10 |
| oren-logic | русскоговорящие есть? | 09:10 |
| bazhang | anygivenname, sure. both should be okay though. any time you do not backup means you are willing to part with that data. | 09:10 |
| bazhang | oren-logic, #ubuntu-ru | 09:11 |
| shmup | so when i try to stop the mysql server | 09:11 |
| anygivenname | bazhang: what do you mean ? | 09:11 |
| shmup | http://pastie.org/1312603 | 09:11 |
| shmup | and it tells me that.. | 09:11 |
| shmup | i then try the utility and it does nothing | 09:12 |
| shmup | http://pastie.org/1312606 | 09:12 |
| anygivenname | gparted will create primary partition 458.5GB ext 2 on /dev/sda.....is this right? | 09:16 |
| adka | hi all. i'll install google Earth but i got the problem on time installation, i'm got the message : xml parse error not found. please help me | 09:17 |

| Dr_Willis | erez_: its like showing all the firfox instances.. open a 2nd and 3rd firefox and try it again | 09:22 |

| empezando_ | how i can change screen resolution 1440x900@60Hz | 09:31 |
| empezando_ | in server with gnome basic | 09:31 |
| X-Sleepy-X | empezando_: /join #ubuntu-server | 09:31 |
| empezando_ | there no one answer | 09:32 |
| X-Sleepy-X | empezando_: oh, you installed gnome? | 09:32 |
| snake | how can i get my PPPoE info? | 09:32 |
| empezando_ | yes, basic core (it's a server) | 09:32 |
| X-Sleepy-X | empezando_: well then try to find some screen settings in the system > settings menu | 09:33 |
| empezando_ | at preferences max is 1024x768 | 09:33 |
| Beefcakes | If I want to install windows 7 and ubuntu, what should I install first ideally? | 09:33 |
| X-Sleepy-X | empezando_: what kind of graphics card do you have? | 09:33 |
| snake | Beefcakes, windows | 09:33 |
| rocket16 | Beefcakes: Install Windows 7, and then add Ubuntu. | 09:34 |
| X-Sleepy-X | Beefcakes: i'd go for windows, and make sure to spare some space for ubuntu | 09:34 |
| empezando_ | ops, one moment | 09:34 |
| snake | Beefcakes, if you don't ubuntu won't boot up | 09:34 |
| Beefcakes | what bootloader will i end up using? | 09:34 |
| rocket16 | Beefcakes: Grub2 | 09:34 |
| snake | Beefcakes, grub | 09:34 |
| Beefcakes | but does it work either way if i install ubuntu first? | 09:34 |
| Beefcakes | can I add an entry to the windows bootloader to list ubuntu? | 09:34 |
| sinthetek | doh! forgot i was in here | 09:34 |
| X-Sleepy-X | Beefcakes: might be more of a hassle | 09:34 |
| rocket16 | Beefcakes: No, because Windows Bootloader will erase Grub2 | 09:34 |
| rocket16 | Beefcakes: That will be difficult | 09:34 |
| Beefcakes | ohh. ubuntu cannot be booted up from the windows bootloader?:) | 09:35 |
| n3rV3 | Beefcakes, look up easybcd if you want to edit windows bootloader but i wont suggest it if you are new to ubuntu/linux | 09:35 |
| rocket16 | Beefcakes: Yes, but then you need to use Wubi (-5% performance) | 09:35 |
| empezando_ | x-Sleepy, nvidia agp 64mb, i need reebot to know more | 09:35 |
| === Xeross|AFK is now known as Xeross | ||

| Beefcakes | rocket16: disk level virtualization? Wubi doesn't seem to work for me. hangs during install. | 09:35 |
| X-Sleepy-X | empezando_: hang on | 09:36 |
| sinthetek | thanks for your help, Dr_Willis. it had occurred to me it might be a permission problem with .bash_history but i thought perhaps there was some sort of intermediate mechanism at work that was supposed to append to it with euid 0 or some such | 09:36 |
| empezando_ | excuse me? i'm spanish, hang on=reboot? | 09:36 |
| kotsos | hello, i am using a usb 3g broadband modem,it works perfectly.What i need now is some kind of bandwidth monitor in order to monitor my bandwidth usage,uptime,and connection speed.I am using xfce | 09:36 |

| ubottu | macotech: LAMP is an acronym for Linux-Apache-MySQL-PHP. However, the term is often used for setups using alternative but different software, such as Perl or Python instead of PHP, and Postgres instead of MySQL. For help with setting up LAMP on Ubuntu, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ApacheMySQLPHP - See also the Server CD installation process (different in Edgy+) | 11:11 |

| Abdur | can ubuntu support exe installation ? | 11:25 |
| st__ | miha, had you checked ODBC Jet drivers? | 11:25 |
| miha | Abdur you can run simple .exe with wine | 11:25 |
| ikonia | Abdur: no | 11:25 |
| st__ | Abdur, yes, via Wine | 11:25 |
| ikonia | Abdur: ubuntu is Linux - .exe is a windows file, they are not native to Linux | 11:25 |

| ikonia | Abdur: https://help.ubuntu.com will give you an introduction to ubuntu | 11:25 |
| miha | st__ not really, there's a question on ubuntu.si forums. it's interesting topic for me, so far i needed only to read, i write with java and jackess... | 11:26 |
| Abdur | thank you | 11:26 |
| miha | st__ "is there any linux program that can create/write access db" | 11:26 |
| miha | st__ so i thought i'd ask here | 11:27 |
| yeats | amarcolino: can you do 'sudo apt-get -f install' and post the output? | 11:27 |
| yeats | amarcolino: post = paste at http://paste.ubuntu.com/ | 11:28 |

| not_default | how can i check lucid cdrom integrity at boot? I have no prompt before the "installation or live" prompt | 11:44 |
| yeats | amarcolino: you can only discover that using dpkg output - aptitude/apt-get doesn't give you enough information | 11:44 |

| daedra | juk: It seems this is the stage at which your boot has failed, yes. If not, then GRUB | 12:19 |
| littlejoey_z | all right folks and ladies, I am going back to my thesis | 12:19 |
| liangruijia | hello | 12:19 |
| daedra | juk: If GRUB, then you may need to boot into a live environment - try your ubuntu livecd, and fix it from there | 12:20 |

| Guest32155 | jrib I am willing to remove them all. | 12:20 |
| jrib | !resetpanel | Guest32155 | 12:20 |
| ubottu | Guest32155: To reset the panel to defaults, type this in a !terminal: « gconftool --recursive-unset /apps/panel && killall gnome-panel » | 12:20 |
| daedra | GRUP - grep and GRUB combined! | 12:20 |
| night | GRUB ???? | 12:20 |
| jrib | Guest32155: use that example then (but use "/" instead of "/apps/panel") | 12:20 |
| jef91 | So I installed my ubuntu from a minimal CD and for some reason my normal user does not have permission to mount removeable media through nautilus - am I missing a package or something? | 12:20 |

| mreichelt | Hi there! I am using Ubuntu 10.04, and ICQ stopped working in Empathy (as usual if the bad guys at ICQ change the infrastructure). But will there be an official update soon to fix this? | 12:21 |
| jrib | jef91: you should tell us what you install exactly. gvfs-mountsomethingorother takes care of the mounting iirc | 12:22 |
| daedra | mreichelt: how should we know?! Try looking at Empathy's site | 12:22 |
| jef91 | let me check for that package jrib | 12:23 |
| NAJI | i need some help deciding what to do: I have a IBM-T42 working great with ZTE 3G modem, i plan to buy a better computer and internet of course | 12:23 |
| jef91 | gvfs-backends I believe - thanks for the tip jrib | 12:24 |
| mreichelt | daedra: because the Update has to be included into the official _ubuntu_ 10.04 updates | 12:24 |
| jrib | jef91: there's a daemon that should run, I don't know what package it's in | 12:25 |

| replicasex | Hey everyone I have a really irritating (read: frothing at the mouth) problem with compiz settings. I installed Macbuntu on a whim, didn't like it, and uninstalled it -- and now I can't use my normal compiz animations. Whenever I try to enable it in CCSM it'll just disable itself. | 12:28 |
| replicasex | It's really really frustrating. | 12:28 |
| replicasex | Everything is using its stupid fade effect, not the ones I actually want to be using. I've tried going into preferences and resetting but it does nothing. | 12:29 |
| jrib | replicasex: check permissions | 12:29 |
| bazhang | replicasex, tried in #compiz yet? | 12:29 |
| lidbjork | I have a local server at home, with a small LAN. I usually log into this server with ssh. Is there a way to configure it so I don't have to enter my user's password when I log into it, but only from my home computer? | 12:29 |
| jef91 | yea jrib that package does not exist in 10.04 :-/ | 12:30 |
| replicasex | jrib, in what way? | 12:30 |
| dong | .. | 12:30 |
| jrib | replicasex: whatever way you want, use ls -l, find, right click properties on the gconf directories responsible for the settings | 12:30 |
| jrib | jef91: waiting for you to answer my original question about what exactly you installed :) | 12:31 |
| replicasex | i've never had an issue with changing animations and so on before, I think it's doubtful that permissions are the problem now. | 12:31 |
| jef91 | not a whole lot jrib | 12:31 |

| jef91 | I just want it to work jrib - what package is that? | 12:32 |
| replicasex | That's what I get for expecting something to be simple, I guess. | 12:32 |

| Gnea | okay, well Kclock doesn't recognize the gnome IPC, so that's probably why it's not accepting it | 13:00 |
| AbhiJit | how to 'add' font to firefox? | 13:00 |
| DrManhattan | how do I get the function for my mouse3 in firefox ack? | 13:00 |
| littlejoey_z | Gnea: ok but is there an easy workaround? | 13:00 |
| DrManhattan | you know, you click mouse3 and it lets you scroll around the screen | 13:00 |
| Gnea | replicasex: did you upgrade something for this to happen? sorry, I wasn't around earlier. | 13:00 |
| Gnea | littlejoey_z: use a gnome-based clock? | 13:00 |
| AbhiJit | hello | 13:00 |
| AbhiJit | how to 'add' font to firefox? | 13:00 |
| FishFace | BajK: are you using the boot CD to try and get info from the bad HD? If not, why not just disable the HD in your bios? | 13:01 |
| littlejoey_z | AbhiJit: did you check the repos? | 13:01 |
| replicasex | Gnea, as I said earlier I installed and then uninstalled the frivolous macbuntu transformation package. | 13:01 |
| replicasex | And before you ask, of course I googled for the problem. | 13:01 |
| AbhiJit | hmmm | 13:01 |
| * AbhiJit should really get a english class | 13:01 | |
| Gnea | replicasex: I can help you better if you don't assume what it is I'm going to ask, thanks. | 13:01 |
| AbhiJit | ok short story in long format | 13:02 |
| Gnea | replicasex: because in this case, you assumed wrong. | 13:02 |
| AbhiJit | i have a website which needs a special devanagari font to be installed in web browser | 13:02 |
| AbhiJit | http://www.loksatta.com/old/font_help.htm | 13:02 |
| AbhiJit | so i downloaded this font | 13:02 |
| ikonia | replicasex: where did you get macbuntu ? | 13:02 |
| FloodBot4 | AbhiJit: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. | 13:02 |
| DrManhattan | I got it, nevermind - "use Autoscrolling" | 13:02 |
| AbhiJit | now in windows i used to just copy paste the font to windows/font and browser will show it | 13:02 |
| ikonia | !fonts > AbhiJit | 13:02 |
| ubottu | AbhiJit, please see my private message | 13:02 |
| AbhiJit | :s | 13:02 |
| Gnea | !info macbuntu | 13:02 |
| ubottu | Package macbuntu does not exist in maverick | 13:02 |
| Gnea | huh | 13:03 |
| replicasex | ikonia, soruceforce, it's a very popular transformation pack | 13:03 |
| littlejoey_z | lol ok it is getting crowded, I will look in ubuntu forums | 13:03 |
| replicasex | There was a recent update that I was interested in -- I've installed it before, never had issues. | 13:03 |
| ikonia | replicasex: ok - so as a high level summary, you had a working ubuntu cssm, downloading an external package, now the cssm package doesn't work, yes/no ? | 13:03 |
| Gnea | replicasex: yeah, if it's third-party, we likely don't support it | 13:03 |
| replicasex | Essentially. | 13:03 |
| amarcolino | yeats: didn't work I have a good hunch it's something with apt, will be loading the snapshot image I made earlier before doing system settings, it will take long but at least it will be working | 13:03 |
| Gnea | it could work, but it's not something we support by default | 13:04 |
| ikonia | replicasex: ok, so if you contact the support team from the soruceforge project page, then can explain what it changes and how, they will know how to undo it | 13:04 |
| replicasex | well the third party program is gone, and I really wish there was a way to simply revert to a previous windows manager state | 13:04 |
| replicasex | ikonia, already done. | 13:04 |
| yeats | amarcolino: good luck! | 13:04 |
| fsc__ | so...i have a bin file...and dont know how to install it | 13:04 |
| fsc__ | can you help me? | 13:04 |
| replicasex | Is there a command that would totally reset/redo all of that stuff? | 13:04 |
| Solow | any idea why the uubntu installation doesnt work for me at all? | 13:04 |
| Gnea | replicasex: have you attempted to create a new account, copy your documents over, delete the current account and move the new one back to the old name? | 13:04 |
| ikonia | replicasex: ask the macbuntu support team what it changes, then we can work out how to revery | 13:04 |
| hexabit | hi! is it ok to take over a discontinued project like nubuntu if i cant contac the former developer? | 13:04 |
| ikonia | revert | 13:04 |
| ikonia | replicasex: ok, so have they responded yet | 13:05 |
| replicasex | No. | 13:05 |
| AbhiJit | i have followed the instructions given by ubottu and still firefox is not using that font to display that website | 13:05 |
| ikonia | fsc__: what are you trying to install ? | 13:05 |
| fsc__ | rar software | 13:05 |
| fsc__ | a software to open .rar files | 13:05 |
| ikonia | replicasex: no | 13:05 |
| replicasex | Gnea, no but if I were to do that I might as well just reinstall, it's easy enough. | 13:05 |
| ikonia | replicasex: have the macbuntu support team responded ? | 13:05 |
| ikonia | Gnea: bravo | 13:05 |
| replicasex | ... like I said, no. | 13:06 |
| fsc__ | leandrosansilva brasilian or Portuguese? | 13:06 |
| ikonia | replicasex: re-install then if you can't wait | 13:06 |
| Gnea | replicasex: well sure you could, but that would just be too easy, wouldn't it? | 13:06 |
| ikonia | replicasex: I have told you how to install rar | 13:06 |
| ikonia | replicasex: sorry - not you | 13:06 |
| ikonia | fsc__: I have told you how to install rar | 13:06 |
| fsc__ | i wasnt here sorry | 13:06 |
| Chr|s | anyone have any suggestions on how to get my mic working on TeamSpeak 3? | 13:06 |
| replicasex | It just seems completely crazy that such a petty problem is unsolvable | 13:06 |
| ikonia | fsc__: you where | 13:06 |
| fsc__ | bathroom | 13:06 |
| glaucomarques | bom dia , pessoal. | 13:07 |
| gustavoferreira | hello everyone, i'm getting an issue when compiling gtkextra from source, first of all, can i use this channel to ask this kind of questions? Compiling from source code? | 13:07 |
| ikonia | replicasex: it seems crazy that you would install a software package from an unknown source, not-knowing how it works then complain that it changes things | 13:07 |
| Gnea | replicasex: it's only unsolvable because you refuse to follow any advice that you ask for. | 13:07 |
| fsc__ | taking care of my physiological needs | 13:07 |
| AbhiJit | arora is displaying that website but the dumb firefox is not | 13:07 |
| replicasex | ikonia, it wasn't unknown I've installed and uninstalled the package a number of times. | 13:07 |
| ikonia | fsc__: open the package manager, search for "rar" and install the free-rar pacakge | 13:07 |
| ikonia | !info rar-free | 13:07 |
| replicasex | Without any issues whatsoever. | 13:07 |
| ubottu | Package rar-free does not exist in maverick | 13:07 |
| leandrosansilva | fsc__: brazilian | 13:07 |
| ikonia | replicasex: then you should know what it changes and how to fix it | 13:07 |
| fsc__ | glaucomarques bom dia...portugues | 13:07 |
| ikonia | !rar | 13:07 |
| ubottu | rar is a non-free archive format created by Rarsoft. For instructions on accessing .rar files through the Archive Manager view https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FileCompression. There is a free (as in speech) unrar utility as well, see !info unrar-free | 13:07 |
| Gnea | replicasex: instead, you insist on whining like a child in an increasingly unprofessional manner. | 13:07 |
| fsc__ | ikonia, where is the package manager situated? | 13:08 |
| ikonia | fsc__: install the package unrar-free from the package manager | 13:08 |
| ikonia | !synaptic | fsc__ | 13:08 |
| replicasex | Goodness all the smarmy folk are out today, aren't they? | 13:08 |
| ubottu | fsc__: synaptic is Ubuntu's Graphical Package Manager. For a good howto see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SynapticHowto | 13:08 |
| Gnea | replicasex: 'unknown', in this case, clearly refers to the global knowledge of the Ubuntu community, not just you. | 13:08 |
| Koopa516 | !info unrar-free | 13:08 |

| ikonia | replicasex: good look with the re-install, or support fom the macbuntu guys, I suggest we leave it there | 13:08 |
| Gnea | !attitude | replicasex | 13:08 |
| ubottu | replicasex: The people here are volunteers, your attitude should reflect that. Answers are not always available. See http://wiki.ubuntu.com/IRC/Guidelines | 13:08 |
| gustavoferreira | fsc_: it isn't bom dia here in portugal xD lol 13h | 13:08 |
| Gnea | replicasex: save the snark for elsewhere. | 13:09 |
| rautamiekka | I would like to make a combination CD-RW which asks whether you wanna boot up the x86 Minimal Installer or the x64 one. Is this possible and how ? | 13:09 |
| ikonia | gustavoferreira: fsc__ this channel is English only please | 13:09 |
| gustavoferreira | i know, and i asked a question in english :s | 13:09 |
| replicasex | Oh do back off. My expression of frustration is hardly *the attack* you seem determined to construe it as. | 13:09 |
| ikonia | rautamiekka: not on a CD as there isn't enough room | 13:09 |
| Gnea | replicasex: welcome to /ignore | 13:09 |
| ikonia | replicasex: It's not an attack, we just don't support that package, so I suggest you contact/wait for response from the macbuntu guys, or re-install | 13:10 |
| ikonia | Gnea: lets drop it please. | 13:10 |
| rautamiekka | ikonia: Yes there is if there's only the Minimal CD images of both architectures and a boot menu. | 13:10 |
| Gnea | ikonia: as you can see, I have. | 13:10 |
| ikonia | rautamiekka: how much space is free on the standard install CD | 13:10 |
| gustavoferreira | someone helps here please? | 13:10 |
| ikonia | rautamiekka: ahhh sorry, the minimal for both arch, not the minimal and normal | 13:10 |
| rautamiekka | ikonia: I said "Minimal Install", not the 650MB regular one ! | 13:10 |
| Gnea | !ask | gustavoferreira | 13:10 |
| ubottu | gustavoferreira: Please don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line and in the channel, so that others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) | 13:10 |
| rautamiekka | ikonia: Minimal is 20 megas. | 13:11 |
| ikonia | rautamiekka: that should be easy enough, just the custom boot menu, thats all you'll need and then point at the right images, check out syslinux | 13:11 |
| gustavoferreira | but i've already did that, see: hello everyone, i'm getting an issue when compiling gtkextra from source, first of all, can i use this channel to ask this kind of questions? Compiling from source code? | 13:11 |
| rautamiekka | ikonia: Now we're talking. Is there anything specific I need to know ? | 13:11 |
| Gnea | gustavoferreira: as was stated, don't ask to ask, just ask. | 13:11 |
| wafic | now wireless is working after restart the wireless disappears completly | 13:11 |
| Exploiter | using ubuntu from last 2 years, just find out that my refresh rate was 50, changed it to 70 just now. and it fucking awsome. from last 2 years i was using ugly font.. dawmm it... | 13:12 |
| ikonia | rautamiekka: not really, if you can make a CD - you will be fine, it's just the changes to syslinux you need and that's easy/well documented | 13:12 |
| ikonia | Exploiter: control the language please. | 13:12 |
| Exploiter | yeah ofcourse.. but just look at compiz.. | 13:12 |
| Gnea | gustavoferreira: I don't see any reason why you couldn't compile gtkextra | 13:12 |
| Exploiter | it didnt set the refrest rate to default.. | 13:12 |
| replicasex | something very odd is going on here -- now I can't enable/disable anything in CCSM at all :\ Even things that don't have anything to do with window animations. | 13:13 |
| ikonia | replicasex: please stop asking about it, we won't suppot the changes that package has made | 13:13 |
| Solow | any idea why the uubntu installation doesnt work for me at all? | 13:13 |
| gustavoferreira | oh, sorry: my problem is, i use ubuntu for about an year and half, and unfortunately for me, always when i have a source package to compile, i never get that done, it always gives me errors when for example i take make, i can use pastebin to show you what are the errors so you cna help me? | 13:13 |
| Gnea | gustavoferreira: sure | 13:14 |
| gustavoferreira | ~paste | 13:14 |

| hexabit | hi! is it ok to take over a discontinued project like nubuntu if i cant contac the former developer? | 13:15 |
| hexabit | bump hehehe | 13:15 |
| Gnea | heh, it's actually isn't | 13:15 |
| ikonia | hexabit: it's not an ubuntu project, so nothing do with us though | 13:15 |
| Gnea | er, doesn't | 13:15 |
| ikonia | Gnea: I have it listed in universe | 13:15 |
| hexabit | ikonia: ok | 13:16 |
| ikonia | Gnea: ahh hardy was the lasst time I see it | 13:16 |
| Gerwin | gustavoferreira: Do you get the required dependencies before trying to compile the source code? | 13:16 |

| Stridskanin | I have bash shell script that dumps some S.M.A.R.T. data into a text file. Eventually I want to make it run automatically on a schedule. But right now I have that script sitting in the home folder of my main user account. It works fine, but where is the most logical place to put that since it is a system wide script and doesn't really belong to a user? | 13:16 |
| ikonia | Stridskanin: it really doesnt matter where - it's your choice | 13:17 |

| AbhiJit | canot add font to firefox | 13:17 |
| gustavoferreira | Gerwin: my problem is that, i'm used to install everything from deb files or synaptic, so i never bother with dependencies, and that's why i came here, so you could tell me if some dependency is missing? | 13:18 |
| AbhiJit | whereas arora is showing the same website | 13:18 |

| rautamiekka | Stridskanin: To me, I think it really should be in the user's $HOME who maintains the script. | 13:18 |
| AbhiJit | ikonia, i followed that | 13:18 |
| AbhiJit | ikonia, and still it is not working | 13:18 |

| Solow | Am I asking such weird questions? I've been asking the same question for 2 days and nobody has replied yet. | 13:19 |
| Gnea | gustavoferreira: it's a fix | 13:19 |
| ikonia | AbhiJit: did all the steps in the install process work | 13:19 |
| rautamiekka | Solow: If someone doesn't know an answer, you won't get an answer. | 13:20 |
| gustavoferreira | Gnea: ok | 13:20 |
| glaucomarques | http://paste.ubuntu.com/534573/ | 13:20 |
| glaucomarques | any idea ? | 13:20 |
| AbhiJit | ikonia, im using lts. so i double click on font. and it told me that it got installed. and still it is not working | 13:20 |
| Solow | rautamiekka, that's... obvious. It's just frustrating. | 13:20 |
| xmj | hello | 13:20 |
| ikonia | AbhiJit: how did you check ? | 13:20 |
| AbhiJit | hi xmj | 13:20 |
| ikonia | Solow: what is your problem | 13:20 |
| AbhiJit | ikonia, on the same window it first display 'install font' button after clicking that button in the same place it shows grayed 'installed' button | 13:20 |
| rautamiekka | Solow: It sure is. I know from experience. Just keep repeating the question when you have the energy for it. Never leave the computer to do something else after asking. | 13:21 |
| ikonia | AbhiJit: run suco fc-cache -f -b | 13:21 |
| AbhiJit | ikonia, and thing is arora is displaying that website well but frefox is not | 13:21 |
| xmj | 会中文吗？ | 13:21 |
| Gnea | rautamiekka: lol | 13:21 |
| AbhiJit | ok | 13:21 |
| Solow | I'll rephrase my question... Is there any reason why all ubuntu installations would fail? ubuntu server is stuck at 45% when starting the partitioner. ubuntu netbook and desktop freeze right after 'preparing ubuntu installation' (where you get to select 'download updates while installing'). | 13:21 |
| xmj | 大家好 | 13:21 |
| ikonia | Solow: many reasons | 13:22 |
| Gnea | Solow: sounds like a hardware problem | 13:22 |
| ikonia | Solow: what hardware is this on ? | 13:22 |

| ubottu | xmj: For Ubuntu help in Chinese 您可以访问中文频道： #ubuntu-cn 或者 #ubuntu-tw 或者 #ubuntu-hk | 13:22 |
| rautamiekka | Solow: Would be HDD problem or even motherboard. | 13:22 |
| AbhiJit | ikonia, invalid option b | 13:22 |
| Solow | ikonia, Gnea, I've installed ubuntu before on this machine. many times before. I've tried 2 hard drives, one fresh from the box. | 13:22 |
| Gnea | Solow: could even be a bad hdd cable | 13:22 |
| ikonia | AbhiJit: sory -v | 13:22 |
| ikonia | AbhiJit: typo | 13:22 |
| AbhiJit | ok | 13:22 |
| Solow | Gnea, but this is only with 10.10, never installed it before. I did install 9.04 (?) and 10.04. | 13:23 |
| ikonia | Solow: what hardware is this on | 13:23 |
| Solow | Acer extensa 5220 btw | 13:23 |
| AbhiJit | ikonia, fc-cache succeded. and still not working in firefox | 13:23 |
| Gnea | Solow: 10.10 changed many things and is not an LTS release | 13:23 |
| Sheepherd | ikonia, ive not been able to successfully edit fstab to get me permission for that newly created drive. u know a good place where to look that up? | 13:24 |
| ikonia | AbhiJit: firefox should pickup fonts from the font server, have you restarted firefox | 13:24 |
| AbhiJit | ikonia, yes restarted | 13:24 |
| ikonia | Sheepherd: what is the issue ? | 13:24 |
| Solow | ikonia, acer extensa 5220, 1GB ram, dual core processor. | 13:24 |
| replicasex | ikonia, it's fortunate that ubuntu is so easy to reinstall. | 13:24 |
| Solow | ikonia, oh and 320GB hd and 80GB hd. (tried both) it's a laptop. | 13:24 |
| replicasex | and that I don't keep my data on the same partition ikonia :P | 13:25 |
| maxyjj | guys i have a wireless bcm card every time i install the driver it gives me this :Please have a look at the log file for details.: /var/log/jockey.log | 13:25 |
| AbhiJit | ikonia, chromium and arora did successfully picked up the font. but firefox not :( | 13:25 |
| ikonia | replicasex: I dont care, install it or don't | 13:25 |
| ikonia | AbhiJit: you are using firefox from the repos yes ? | 13:25 |
| maxyjj | i have put the log in here http://pastebin.com/rNs6wZV | 13:25 |
| AbhiJit | ikonia, yes | 13:25 |
| Solow | Gnea, what is LTS? does this have anything to do with the fact it fails? | 13:25 |
| ikonia | AbhiJit: it should pickup from font server. | 13:25 |
| AbhiJit | ikonia, 3.6.12 | 13:25 |
| AbhiJit | ikonia, ok | 13:25 |
| ikonia | Solow: what happens when you try to install the desktop ? | 13:25 |
| Sheepherd | ikonia, i edited it like this: http://paste.pocoo.org/show/293895/ and the drive disappeared. im not sure if i understood the fstab concept though. | 13:26 |
| Solow | Gnea, ikonia, may I add, that the 'live disk' does work. (it's on my usb, used unetbootin) | 13:26 |
| Solow | ikonia, said it at [14:21]: I tried server, desktop, and netbook. same result everywhere. | 13:26 |
| ikonia | Solow: you have no mount point | 13:26 |
| ikonia | Solow: sorry - not you | 13:26 |
| Sheepherd | ikonia, im talking about the last entry | 13:26 |
| ikonia | Solow: what happens when you try to install the desktop | 13:26 |
| dhoine | My rc.local does not start automatically, what could be wrong? | 13:26 |
| ikonia | Sheepherd: you are missing a mount point | 13:26 |
| Gnea | Solow: long-term support, and 10.04 is the current LTS release, which means that the changes introduced in 10.10 are often sudden and need to be worked out - problems like this often happen due to the nature of the direction that the Ubuntu developers are taking the distribution in | 13:27 |
| Solow | ikonia, I just answered that question :p | 13:27 |
| ikonia | Solow: what is the problem when you try to install the desktop version | 13:27 |
| yeats | maxyjj: your paste didn't come through | 13:27 |
| Solow | Gnea, I see. so perhaps i should just try 10.04. | 13:27 |
| Gnea | Solow: so you can install via the usb drive? | 13:27 |
| MichaelKohler | !restore | 13:28 |
| Solow | ikonia, I already said that, three times so far. :S | 13:28 |
| Gnea | Solow: I've stuck with 10.04 and haven't regretted it a single bit. | 13:28 |
| MichaelKohler | !grub | 13:28 |
| ubottu | grub is the default boot manager for Ubuntu releases before Karmic (9.10). Lost GRUB after installing Windows? See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestoreGrub - GRUB how-tos: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto - See !grub2 for Karmic onwards. | 13:28 |

| shubbar | Does anyone have Genius Mousepen? | 13:28 |
| Sheepherd | ikonia, isnt rw the value for the fourth column? | 13:28 |
| ikonia | Solow: this is why you are not getting help - I'm asking you to explain what happens when you install the desktop version | 13:28 |
| ikonia | Solow: instead of saying "I've said" tell me, as I obviously didn't see it, or you didn't explain it clearly | 13:28 |
| maxyjj | yeats : here it is http://pastebin.com/VPj6gFi1 | 13:29 |
| ikonia | Solow: 2nd coloumn "none" needs to be a mount point | 13:29 |
| Gnea | Solow: do you have any error messages or screenshots of the error when the error occurs during install? | 13:29 |
| ikonia | Solow: sorry - not you | 13:29 |
| Solow | ikonia, I answered this question three times already. I'll paste the answer again: | 13:29 |
| Solow | ikonia, [14:21] <Solow> I'll rephrase my question... Is there any reason why all ubuntu installations would fail? ubuntu server is stuck at 45% when starting the partitioner. ubuntu netbook and desktop freeze right after 'preparing ubuntu installation' (where you get to select 'download updates while installing'). | 13:29 |
| jimbauwens | Hello, I am using notify-send in a script to display some output, but I have a problem, notify-send doesn't support tabs. So, is there another way to display notifications from a script, one that also supports tabs? | 13:29 |
| Gnea | Solow: when it freezes, does the screen have a red tint to it? | 13:29 |
| ikonia | Sheepherd: second column "none" is telling /dev/sda4 not to mount | 13:30 |
| Solow | Gnea, no it doesnt really 'freeze' it just, keeps loading. I left it on for 2 days, nothing changed. | 13:30 |
| glaucomarques | http://paste.ubuntu.com/534573/ | 13:30 |
| glaucomarques | any idea? | 13:30 |
| Gnea | Solow: did you check alt-f4 messages? | 13:30 |
| Solow | Gnea, it's the second screen in installation, where it does three checks, internet, hd, and something else. you can select to download updates, and third party software during installation, when you click forward the loading cursor comes up, and this stays the same. for 2 days. | 13:31 |
| Solow | Gnea, no.. what's that? | 13:31 |
| maxyjj | yeats: did the link work | 13:32 |
| Sheepherd | ikonia, aaaaaah thx man! and thx for letting me research that stuff myself. i highly appreciate it =) | 13:32 |
| yeats | maxyjj: try 'sudo apt-get install bcmwl-kernel-source' and reboot | 13:32 |
| yeats | maxyjj: yes it did | 13:32 |
| Gnea | Solow: in Linux, there are typically 6 virtual consoles outside of X. they can be accessed by pressing ctrl-alt-f1 through f6 if already in X, or simply alt-f1 through f6 outside of X | 13:32 |
| Sheepherd | ikonia, and i mean it. no irony. | 13:32 |
| Gnea | Solow: during installation, console #4 is typically set aside for logging purposes | 13:33 |
| Solow | Gnea, ah right, I knew that, i didnt check yet. so i'll leave it to load, and press alt+f1 | 13:33 |
| maxyjj | restaring be back | 13:33 |
| reber | hi. What's the name of the package to monitor files installed during an install (make install of whatever bin installer) ? | 13:33 |
| Solow | Gnea, so, alt+f4? | 13:33 |
| Gnea | Solow: yup | 13:33 |
| Gnea | Solow: when it freezes, try it out, see if the error is there | 13:33 |
| Solow | Gnea, "Do you really want to quit the installation now?" | 13:33 |
| ikonia | Sheepherd: welcome | 13:33 |
| ikonia | Sheepherd: "none" is only for swap partition, file systems need a mount point, eg: /mnt | 13:34 |
| Gnea | Solow: again, it's alt-f4 if you're NOT in X | 13:34 |
| Solow | Gnea, yeh, i cant get back, i did ctrl+alt+f1 :p | 13:34 |
| gustavoferreira | Gnea: when i do make install, do i have to use it whit sudo? | 13:34 |
| Gnea | therefore, if you're trying to install server, it doesn't load X like desktop does | 13:34 |
| Gnea | gustavoferreira: yes. | 13:34 |
| gustavoferreira | Gnea: ok, many thanks | 13:35 |
| Gnea | Solow: X is on f7 or f8 | 13:35 |
| yeats | Solow: have you tried using the alternate installer cd? it avoids many problems... | 13:35 |
| Gnea | Solow: you've got 10 f-keys, try them :p | 13:35 |
| Solow | Gnea, yes i did, no errors anywhere | 13:35 |
| Gnea | er 12 | 13:35 |
| Gnea | lol | 13:35 |
| maxyjj | yeats: still the same messege Please have a look at the log file for details.: /var/log/jockey.log | 13:35 |
| Gnea | Solow: what about kernel messages? | 13:36 |
| gustavoferreira | Gnea: that fixed my problem, thanks again. | 13:36 |
| Solow | Gnea, how do i find those? | 13:36 |
| Gnea | gustavoferreira: cheers | 13:36 |

| Solow | ok uhm, let's see | 13:37 |
| Gnea | if you want to get fancy: dmesg | more | 13:37 |
| maxyjj | its a wired problem looked every were on the internet and no luck | 13:37 |

| Solow | Gnea, last 2 lines | 13:39 |
| night | i wana sparkle effects | 13:39 |
| collabra | night: there's alot more plugins and such to compiz,... unless you installed them all. | 13:40 |
| yeats | maxyjj: for whatever reason, jockey-gtk never works on my Dell mini | 13:40 |
| maxyjj | yeats: i'll restart and see what will my one is dell e6400 | 13:40 |
| night | where i can find plugins | 13:40 |
| Gnea | Solow: okay - here's the next test - reboot, start installation again - but before it installs packages, look at dmesg to see if that error is there yet or not, or if it shows up during the installation of the packages | 13:40 |
| Sheepherd | ikonia, yea i figured. whats up with that lost+found folder anyways? i read its used for recovery but do i have to actually see it? it seems i could hide it with $mv lost+found .lost+found but how do i get into that other drive now? its mount point is /dump but $cd /dump doesnt work since its a drive and not a directory. | 13:40 |
| collabra | night: not only does searching for 'compiz' get you results,.. but searching in the descriptions for 'compiz' will get you more. | 13:41 |
| Solow | Gnea, but it doesnt install anything yet | 13:41 |
| Gnea | Solow: exactly. | 13:41 |
| Solow | Gnea, it doesnt even get to installation. | 13:41 |
| collabra | night: perhaps you're not spelling it right.... | 13:41 |
| Gnea | Solow: oh? | 13:41 |
| Solow | Gnea, i'll just boot from live cd, make screenshot ok | 13:42 |
| Gnea | Solow: what stage is it stuck at? | 13:42 |
| Gnea | Solow: sure | 13:42 |

| shmup | https://github.com/redcar/redcar/wiki/installation | 13:47 |
| yeats | maxyjj: so you're doing 'sudo apt-get install bcmwl-kernel-source' and it's not telling you it's already installed? | 13:47 |
| shmup | i'm having problems where they say "You can run Redcar with a full path to the binary (On Ubuntu: /var/lib/gems/1.8/bin/redcar) " | 13:47 |
| shmup | have noooo idea how that works | 13:47 |

| shmup | howdy | 13:53 |
| maxyjj | yeats: on the top icon it say wireless network not found | 13:54 |
| Dibbler___ | an any of you recomend a new reader with nzb support that's command line , and stable ? | 13:54 |
| Gerwin | Dibbler___: I'd recommend you look into SABnzbd+, although that's not a command line client, but rather one that's using a web interface. | 13:54 |
| Dibbler___ | that's just as good | 13:55 |
| Dibbler___ | thnx for the info | 13:55 |
| Dibbler___ | how about a torrent client | 13:55 |

| Gerwin | Dibbler___: tranmission-cli | 13:56 |

| Gerwin | Dibbler___: Uhm, yes, but it's a headless server with a web interface only. | 13:57 |
| ZykoticK9 | Dibbler___, torrentflux is an apache based torrent client, bittornado is a CLI client | 13:57 |
| Dibbler___ | gerwin , that's fine , it has to run on a remote location | 13:57 |
| Gerwin | Dibbler___: Also, it's not available through apt, you have to set it up yourself :) | 13:58 |
| Dibbler___ | i'll manage | 13:58 |

| jimbauwens | Diverdude, I'm sorry, don't really know how to do that :) I'm sure you can, but never did it. | 13:59 |
| Gerwin | Dibbler___: Well, since the uTorrent version is still in alpha, you can't be sure it works ;) | 13:59 |

| Norrland | Diverdude: If it's possible to sync your iphone with rhytmbox using files on your laptop. Then you could just mount the dir with music/videos with sshfs | 14:01 |

| fsc__ | im using package manager | 14:06 |
| jimbauwens | diverdude, you can have both, and compare them | 14:06 |

| IdleOne | zelhar: what details are you looking for? | 14:06 |
| fsc__ | should i mark all the files in the folder for installation? | 14:06 |
| LinuxAdmin | cordoval_, just insert "echo test >> /var/log/syslog" at the beginning of that file and see what happens | 14:06 |
| zelhar | If you add the ppa using the command "sudo add-apt-repository ppa:user/ppa-name" then it doesn't store it in the sources.list | 14:07 |
| ZykoticK9 | zelhar, check in /etc/apt/sources.list.d/ | 14:07 |

| Solow | nm... windows will do | 14:09 |
| fsc__ | in the package manager should i select all the files in the folder? | 14:09 |
| cordoval_ | LinuxAdmin: nothing there | 14:10 |
| cordoval_ | the problem is standard | 14:10 |
| LinuxAdmin | cordoval_ my ideia is just for troubleshooting. I think you had inserted a command that returns an error at the beginning of the file and that's why the rest of the script doesn't work | 14:10 |
| Diverdude | jimbauwens, do you know which ppa it is? | 14:10 |

| Abhishekam | The Bansee sound menu plugin... thhe plugin that makes it accesible from the sound control in the desktop UI. | 14:13 |
| collabra | fsc__: sudo apt-get install unrar-free | 14:13 |
| Abhishekam | Like what Rhythymbox has by default. | 14:14 |
| jimbauwens | Abhishekam, look in the plugins | 14:14 |
| IdleOne | fsc__: or from the Software center, search for unrar-free and then install it. | 14:14 |
| jimbauwens | Abhishekam, in preferences | 14:14 |

| jimbauwens | Abhishekam, what version of banshee do you have? | 14:15 |
| HRPufnstuf | I got a 2nd partition, and have it mounted (I can see it), but how do I give PERMISSION to read/ write to it? | 14:15 |
| === gaurava is now known as GauravAggarwal | ||
| IdleOne | Diverdude: set it in system > admin > preferred apps | 14:15 |
| Abhishekam | Let me check. It shujld be the most recent. | 14:16 |
| ikonia | HRPufnstuf: what file system is on the second partition ? | 14:16 |
| Abhishekam | 1.8.0 | 14:16 |
| IdleOne | Diverdude: sorry, that should be system > prefs | 14:16 |
| jimbauwens | Diverdude, yeah, just put banshee to the default media application | 14:16 |
| Diverdude | ahh nice | 14:17 |
| geboy | i love ubuntu!!!!! | 14:17 |
| jimbauwens | Abhishekam, are you afraid of unstable builds? | 14:17 |
| === GauravAggarwal is now known as gaurava | ||
| HRPufnstuf | ikonia: What you mean? It has all the regular folders (bin, boot, etc.). | 14:17 |
| Abhishekam | Nope. | 14:17 |
| jimbauwens | Abhishekam, ppa:banshee-unstable-team/ppa | 14:17 |
| geboy | but what am i gonna do once inside one???? rofl... everything just seems 'new' | 14:18 |
| ikonia | HRPufnstuf: is it ext4 ? | 14:18 |
| Diverdude | jimbauwens, hmmm something seems to be weird in banshee | 14:18 |
| jimbauwens | Diverdude : what? | 14:18 |
| Diverdude | jimbauwens, all songs seems to appear like 500 times in the list | 14:18 |
| jimbauwens | diverdude: oh, weird | 14:19 |
| jimbauwens | Diverdude, maybe you should try banshee unstable (I use it, and it is stable enough) | 14:19 |
| Diverdude | jimbauwens, but its only in 2 of the playlists | 14:19 |
| rinzai | hi everyone! | 14:20 |
| IdleOne | Diverdude: I have the same issue with banshee duplicating albums/songs | 14:20 |
| rinzai | sorry for the ultra-mega-noob networking question.... | 14:20 |
| geboy | what is the low resource gui for an ubuntu server? | 14:20 |
| geboy | rinzai: what is it? | 14:20 |
| ceb_2 | alien says .deb file generated but there is no file! | 14:20 |
| juk_ | anyone tried to boot ubuntu from 4G usb? | 14:20 |
| rinzai | At my place we have a router to connect to the internet and two laptops (one mine, the other my flat mate) | 14:20 |
| cordoval_ | thanks LinuxAdmin I am dealing with the problem at #git | 14:20 |
| HRPufnstuf | ikonia: ext2 | 14:20 |
| jimbauwens | Diverdude, maybe unstable fixes it : ppa:banshee-unstable-team/ppa | 14:21 |
| geboy | rinzai: and? | 14:21 |
| IdleOne | geboy: you can install xubuntu-desktop (xfce) or lubuntu-desktop (lxde) lubuntu is lighter they say. | 14:21 |
| rinzai | if he connects to is work via VPN, are we both using the VPN? :-S | 14:21 |
| maxyjj | yeats: it seems that when i restart it gets disabled and then i have to install it again to make it work | 14:21 |
| ceb_2 | it says 'bjfiltercups_2.2-3_i386.deb generated' but i can't find the file, anyone? | 14:21 |
| rinzai | I want some piece of mind that I can browse freely, without him getting into trouble while on VPN (on his laptop) | 14:21 |
| geboy | rinzai: if the router is a separate box, i don't think so | 14:22 |
| Diverdude | jimbauwens, hmmm that is really annoying...each song is repeated so many times | 14:22 |
| jimbauwens | diverdude: yeah, dont' now what the problem is | 14:22 |
| geboy | IdleOne: does that mean i have to reinstall everything or can you name the package i should install? | 14:23 |
| rinzai | we both use this router: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/BT_Home_Hub | 14:23 |
| rinzai | geboy, thanks | 14:23 |
| geboy | rinzai: np | 14:23 |
| rinzai | so basically, I should be aware when he's on VPN, right? | 14:23 |
| jimbauwens | Diverdude, is it local music, or music on the iPhone? | 14:24 |
| IdleOne | geboy: sudo apt-get install xubuntu-desktop will install the GUI and default apps for Xubuntu, lubuntu-desktop will do the same for Lubuntu. your choice which to install | 14:24 |
| Diverdude | jimbauwens, its music on the iphone | 14:24 |
| Somelauw | My computer froze completely. | 14:24 |
| Norrland | rinzai: if your friend is using a client on his laptop, it means that only his laptop is conneted to the companys network | 14:24 |
| xmj | hello | 14:24 |
| jimbauwens | diverdude, weird | 14:24 |
| geboy | rinzai: i think you have a separate connection | 14:24 |
| xmj | hello | 14:24 |
| Somelauw | My dmesg looks dirty: http://pastebin.com/q0uEDE45 | 14:24 |
| Somelauw | What do you think? | 14:25 |
| collabra | !cn | 14:25 |
| ubottu | For Ubuntu help in Chinese 您可以访问中文频道： #ubuntu-cn 或者 #ubuntu-tw 或者 #ubuntu-hk | 14:25 |
| rinzai | geboy, Norrland : thanks a lot. Yes, he's using a client on his laptop. Cool, feel more relaxed now ;-P | 14:25 |
| rinzai | thanks again! | 14:25 |
| Norrland | rinzai: np | 14:25 |
| geboy | rinzai: unless the router u use is a messed up configured one. but seeing the product u use it shouldn't interfere any connection made by each user connected to the router | 14:25 |
| Skapare | Somelauw: what do you think is wrong in that dmesg? | 14:25 |
| jimbauwens | Diverdude, do you have the iPod/iPhone plugin enabled? | 14:26 |
| === Thor^^ is now known as ThorFuruseth | ||
| Diverdude | jimbauwens, where do i do that | 14:26 |
| geboy | IdleOne:thanks alot. | 14:26 |
| yeats | maxyjj: can you do 'lsmod' in a terminal and paste the output at http://paste.ubuntu.com/? | 14:26 |
| === ThorFuruseth is now known as Thor^^ | ||
| jimbauwens | Diverdude, in preferences>plugins | 14:27 |
| Somelauw | Skapare: 1. My computer froze. 2. It says my BIOS is broken. | 14:27 |
| geboy | IdleOne: one more thing, how much space it consume? | 14:27 |
| geboy | rinzai: don't mention it// | 14:27 |

| ocean22 | hi guys. i just installed ubuntu 10.110 along with windows xp and linux mint.it was all working fine but when i updated the 10.10 the boot menu list is not offering windows xp nor linux mint.i tried doing sudo grub update but no joy.can any one help pls | 14:28 |
| Diverdude | jimbauwens, yes it is checked | 14:28 |
| maxyjj | yeats: ok | 14:28 |
| yeats | maxyjj: can you also do 'cat /etc/modules' and 'cat cat /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf' and paste those too? | 14:28 |
| IdleOne | geboy: 192 MB of additional disk space will be used. for lubuntu-desktop | 14:28 |
| yeats | maxyjj: sorry - second command should be 'cat /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf' not 'cat cat' :-) | 14:28 |
| jimbauwens | Diverdude, maybe the best is to install banshee unstable | 14:28 |
| geboy | how can you guy knows so very much about ubuntu and|or linux??? | 14:29 |
| Skapare | Somelauw: HP plays "fast and loose" with ACPI | 14:29 |
| IdleOne | geboy: you will soon also :) | 14:29 |
| jimbauwens | geboy: because its fun | 14:29 |
| geboy | IdleOne: thanks | 14:29 |
| Somelauw | Skapare, Okay so it'snormal. | 14:29 |
| Skapare | Somelauw: not normal ... but typical | 14:29 |
| merlin2049er | hey | 14:30 |
| IdleOne | geboy: if you type: sudo apt-get install lubuntu-desktop it will list all the packages that will be installed and also show the amount of space needed. | 14:30 |
| merlin2049er | whats up | 14:30 |
| Somelauw | Skapare, but do you have any clue how to figure out the reason why it hang? | 14:30 |
| ocean22 | hi guys. i just installed ubuntu 10.110 along with windows xp and linux mint.it was all working fine but when i updated the 10.10 the boot menu list is not offering windows xp nor linux mint.i tried doing sudo grub update but no joy.can any one help pls | 14:30 |
| IdleOne | geboy: you can hit N and ENTER to abort the install | 14:30 |
| Skapare | Somelauw: it can still be a cause of problems and workarounds may be needed, such as turning off ACPI entirely (I've had to do that with a couple HP machines in the past) | 14:30 |
| geboy | jimbauwens: i think it is. i'm starting to feel it after so many unsuccessfull config of freeradius integration with my mikrotik....lol (it still unsucsessfull tho....rofl) | 14:30 |
| Somelauw | Skapare, because it hangs more often. The file I printed was called dmesg.0 | 14:30 |
| maxyjj | yeats: here it is http://paste.ubuntu.com/534591/ | 14:30 |
| Diverdude | jimbauwens, how is that done? | 14:31 |
| geboy | IdleOne: ok, i'll try that tonight... | 14:31 |
| e-anima | hi | 14:31 |
| IdleOne | geboy: sure thing. we are here 24/7 | 14:31 |
| geboy | IdleOne: i believe you are...you guys rocks... | 14:31 |
| e-anima | someone hre using virtalbox to run adobe lightroom and has a very hard peformance decrease like 1:10. mainly caused by low hdd i/o access/speed | 14:31 |
| jimbauwens | Diverdude, add ppa:banshee-unstable-team/ppa | 14:31 |
| epictetus | e-anima: are you using an nvidia card? | 14:32 |
| e-anima | yes | 14:32 |
| epictetus | using restricted drivers? | 14:32 |
| yeats | maxyjj: this lsmod was done before enabling the bcm driver again? | 14:32 |
| Somelauw | By the way, are you saying hp makes bad computers? | 14:32 |
| e-anima | and drivers of nvidia installed | 14:32 |
| Skapare | Somelauw: and there have been HP machines (desktops) that I have had to simply give up on and send them back as "not compatible with Linux" | 14:32 |
| pityonline | Hello! I want to filter some comments by email address? Is there a way to solve that? | 14:32 |
| epictetus | hmm | 14:32 |
| epictetus | dunno then | 14:32 |
| pityonline | Hello! I want to filter some comments by email address? Is there a way to solve that? I mean wordpress. | 14:32 |
| e-anima | maybe it is normal. i am not sure | 14:32 |
| jimbauwens | diverdude, and then update | 14:32 |
| geboy | Somelauw: just not prepared for the best thing like linux ... | 14:32 |
| geboy | :) | 14:33 |
| Somelauw | Skapare, but is the freeze related to that problem or what is the cause? | 14:33 |
| maxyjj | yeats: shell i install bcm and read it again | 14:33 |
| e-anima | but if, i maybe could rais speed with ad ssd. | 14:33 |
| IdleOne | jimbauwens: what is the version of banshee in that ppa? | 14:33 |
| baske | hi, does anyone have experience of intel 4965AGN wireless network adapter? | 14:33 |
| LinuxAdmin | pityonline, can you be more specific? | 14:33 |
| yeats | maxyjj: yes please, and also paste the output of 'cat /etc/modules' - thanks | 14:33 |
| brontoeee | e-anima, was that a question? then yes | 14:33 |
| Skapare | Somelauw: could be ... if it misdirected device or memory mappings that can happen ... but it would generally ALWAYS happen if it is due to bad ACPI | 14:33 |
| baske | trying to get 300Mbit from it (worked in 10.04 but not in 10.10) | 14:33 |
| maxyjj | yeats: yes sir | 14:33 |
| Somelauw | I don't really know what an acpi is. | 14:33 |
| Somelauw | !help acpi | me | 14:34 |
| geboy | !acpi | 14:34 |
| e-anima | brontoeee the ssd thing? | 14:34 |
| Skapare | Somelauw: does the freeze always happen? does it happen immediately on boot ... or after some time? | 14:34 |
| brontoeee | e-anima, no, the lightroom running superslowly | 14:34 |
| geboy | Somelauw: so does our bot doesnt know acpi... | 14:34 |
| e-anima | yes | 14:34 |
| jimbauwens | IdleOne : good point! | 14:34 |
| Skapare | look up ACPI on wikipedia | 14:34 |
| ZykoticK9 | Somelauw, ACPI is the update of APM - it for power management usually | 14:34 |
| e-anima | i have no data to compare. only my slow result | 14:34 |
| jimbauwens | Diverdude, STOP! | 14:34 |
| Somelauw | I was downloading some updates and working at the same time. Probably everything froze and I couldn't use the mouse or keyboard. | 14:34 |
| geboy | Somelauw: what if you turn of that in ur bios | 14:35 |
| jimbauwens | Diverdude, wrong ppa :) | 14:35 |
| Diverdude | jimbauwens, idid what you said and the same :( | 14:35 |
| maxyjj | yeats: its done http://paste.ubuntu.com/534593/ | 14:35 |
| IdleOne | jimbauwens: I didn't make a point, I was asking out of curiosity | 14:35 |
| Skapare | ACPI was originally a way for hardware to tell software "this is how to turn me off" but it grew into more | 14:35 |
| e-anima | so maybe someone runs it in virtualbox too and has some data to compare (speed) | 14:35 |
| pityonline | LinuxAdmin: Er, there are too many spam comments on my blog, they were sent by someone@qq.com. | 14:35 |
| e-anima | thats the question | 14:35 |
| Diverdude | jimbauwens, whoops i already added and updated | 14:35 |
| Somelauw | I was downloading some updates and working at the same time. <<Suddenly>> everything froze and I couldn't use the mouse or keyboard. | 14:35 |
| jimbauwens | Diverdude, IdleOne, Its a older version of banshee | 14:35 |
| brontoeee | pityonline, considered using akismet? | 14:36 |
| jimbauwens | diverdude, its ok, it never updates to a lower version | 14:36 |
| Skapare | Somelauw: so it's an irregular freeze ... more likely bad memory | 14:36 |
| maxyjj | yeats: this wireless is playing games with me | 14:36 |
| IdleOne | jimbauwens: ha, apt prefers the newer version so it won't install it | 14:36 |
| Somelauw | Should I turn of my acpi? (?) | 14:36 |
| brontoeee | pityonline, considered using any antispam wp plugins? | 14:36 |
| jimbauwens | diverdude: Ill look for the good ppa | 14:36 |
| Skapare | Somelauw: other causes are bad power supply or voltage regulators | 14:36 |
| pityonline | brontoeee: I used akismet already. | 14:36 |
| geboy | Somelauw: i was having the same thing when using my ECS mobo. turned the setting off and everything just went smooth using 9.04 tho | 14:36 |
| Skapare | Somelauw: go ahead and try turning off ACPI to see if that changes things ... maybe will, maybe won't | 14:37 |
| jimbauwens | Diverdude : ppa:banshee-team/banshee-unstable | 14:37 |
| Somelauw | Should I bother asking the manufactorer or will they tell me I shouldn't use linux? | 14:37 |
| IdleOne | What is the command to purge a PPA? | 14:37 |
| jimbauwens | Diverdude, thats the good one | 14:37 |
| Skapare | Somelauw: how old is it? | 14:37 |
| Somelauw | Are there any disadvantages of unabling the acpi? | 14:37 |
| geboy | Somelauw: i think they will tell you don't linux | 14:37 |
| Somelauw | About a year. | 14:37 |
| Skapare | Somelauw: desktop? laptop? netbook? | 14:37 |
| Somelauw | laptop | 14:37 |
| pityonline | brontoeee: Is there a way to do it like this: when someone fills a mail address as qq.com, show a msg like "Sorry @QQ.COM are not allowed to comment here." | 14:38 |
| Somelauw | I think I should have bought a Dell. | 14:38 |
| yeats | maxyjj: yes - something is not automagically happening that should be | 14:38 |
| jimbauwens | IdleOne, ppa-purge (i think it is not there by default)? | 14:38 |
| Skapare | if they tell you it is not linux compatible, ask them if they can recommend a manufacturer that is compatible with linux (most are) | 14:38 |
| Skapare | Somelauw: Dell isn't much better | 14:38 |
| yeats | maxyjj: can you paste 'lspci -vv' output (looking for model info for your wireless card) | 14:39 |
| jimbauwens | Diverdude, really got to go, pm me for further information | 14:39 |
| maxyjj | yeats: yap | 14:39 |
| brontoeee | pityonline, sure its possible, just you will have to make something that simple probably yourself | 14:39 |
| pityonline | brontoeee: btw, no IE6 user can see my comments area now, cuz i found too many spam were sent by IE6. | 14:39 |
| IdleOne | jimbauwens: ppa-purge command not found | 14:39 |
| geboy | Skapare: shouldn linux compatible with anything? | 14:39 |
| ZykoticK9 | IdleOne, ppa-purge isn't in default install | 14:39 |
| jimbauwens | idleone: you need to download it ::) | 14:39 |
| Diverdude | jimbauwens, ok added it...but i dont think anything new is installed when i run sudo apt-get update | 14:39 |
| IdleOne | ahh | 14:39 |
| brontoeee | pityonline, sounds like akismet is not working for you? | 14:39 |
| maxyjj | yeats: http://paste.ubuntu.com/534595/ | 14:39 |
| jimbauwens | diverdude: do sudo apt-get install banshee | 14:40 |
| IdleOne | thank you ZykoticK9 and jimbauwens | 14:40 |
| Skapare | geboy: CPUs, yes ... chipset configs made by silly mobo manufacturers AND incorrectly configured ACPI ... then all bets are off | 14:40 |
| pityonline | brontoeee: akismet works, but i wanna make it no QQ.COM mails can comment. | 14:40 |
| share | gufw or firestarted? | 14:40 |
| geboy | Skapare: make sense. | 14:41 |
| jimbauwens | IdleOne : http://www.webupd8.org/2010/04/ppa-purge-now-available-via-getdeb.html | 14:41 |
| Skapare | Somelauw: I could recommend .US brands ... you'll have to find others in .NL | 14:41 |
| IdleOne | jimbauwens: it's also in the default repos | 14:41 |
| share | isn't advised to have 2 firewalls installed right? | 14:41 |
| brontoeee | pityonline, you will have to find a dumb plugin like that or write that sort of functionality yourself, make a plugin i guess i would be usefull for somebody else as well....dunno | 14:41 |
| Skapare | geboy: ACPI is one big complicated mess that should never have been | 14:41 |
| Chr|s | im not sure what else to do, Im at a loss. I can't get my headset working properly with TeamSpeak 3 | 14:41 |
| jimbauwens | Idleone, ok | 14:41 |

| brontoeee | *dumb | 14:45 |
| Skapare | geboy: then Intel comes along after there are 30 different ways to do things ... so they make a "standard" to tell the software how to do it ... and then 29 out of 30 manufacturers get it wrong | 14:45 |
| maxyjj | yeats: http://paste.ubuntu.com/534597/ | 14:45 |
| Skapare | geboy: trying new things is fine ... but once it is obvious they are all going to do it, they need to standardize | 14:45 |

| Lemmiwinks | I set the power saving mode of my CPU to "conservative" in my /etc/rc.local but it looks like a service on startup resets the mode to"ondemand". Which one could that be and how to siable it? | 14:45 |
| maxyjj | yeats: yes it works but if i restart the laptop it will be gone | 14:45 |
| geboy | Skapare: geez...thats a mess alright.. for me, if something failed and no cure, i'll just turn off the feature, and see if i can live with it... | 14:46 |
| geboy | :) | 14:46 |
| Skapare | geboy: that's the usual workaround | 14:46 |
| yeats | maxyjj: try this: 'sudo gedit /etc/modules' and add (at the end, on a single line) 'wl', then save, then reboot and see if you have wireless | 14:46 |
| Skapare | but in the case of Somelauw's problem, I doubt it is ACPI ... I suspect bad memory or bad voltage causing corruption somewhere | 14:47 |
| ZykoticK9 | maxyjj, yeats DON'T use "sudo gedit..." use "gksu gedit.." see !gksudo | 14:47 |
| geboy | skapare: or you can throw it out the window | 14:47 |
| pipp | asdf | 14:47 |

| ZykoticK9 | !gksudo | brontoeee | 14:47 |
| pipp | #inserraum | 14:47 |
| ubottu | brontoeee: If you need to run graphical applications as root, use « gksudo », as it will set up the environment more appropriately. Never just use "sudo"! (See http://psychocats.net/ubuntu/graphicalsudo to know why) | 14:47 |

| ZykoticK9 | ocean22, the typical fix would be to boot into 10.10 and run "sudo update-grub" then reboot (but I think you said you tried that already) | 14:49 |

| brontoeee | ZykoticK9, if i run 'sudo gedit stuff.conf' i do actually expect user config for gedit to load with my gedit, since there is no root user in ubuntu, so i dont understand, or maybe i lack some knowhow here... | 14:57 |

| sl33k_ | I cant load up my ubuntu, it shows ====>"gnome power update not installed properly" ? | 15:47 |
| oliver_ | what is blacksheep | 15:47 |
| agentsmith | well, this is not a matter of hacking a password .. it's about showing/hiding the password stored in the field | 15:48 |
| HHabib1 | But you might suffer a little bit with GTK and C# or VB together eventually you will get used to it. not saying that you can not use .NET there but you might experience some bugs. | 15:48 |
| IdleOne | agentsmith: look in system > admin > passwords and keys | 15:48 |
| smw | bobbysmith0072, ah, completely different problem. That is under system -> administration -> login screen | 15:48 |
| bobbysmith0072 | thats smw! I kept looking under users and startup | 15:48 |
| IdleOne | agentsmith: that should be prefs and not admin | 15:48 |

| Krishnandu | HHabib1, sudo apt-get install mono?? | 15:49 |
| smw | bobbysmith0072, your welcome | 15:49 |
| HHabib1 | yep or you can just download the package and install it the usual way. | 15:49 |
| sl33k_ | I cant load up my ubuntu, it shows ====>"gnome power update not installed properly" ? | 15:49 |
| IdleOne | agentsmith: what version of ubuntu? | 15:49 |
| agentsmith | only encryption and keyrings | 15:49 |
| HHabib1 | you can get it from the Ubuntu Software Center too .. | 15:49 |
| IdleOne | agentsmith: ok look there | 15:49 |
| rautamiekka | rootlinuxusr: "vol_id" is unknown command. | 15:49 |
| oliver_ | can i have blacksheep from the software center too | 15:50 |
| HHabib1 | only if you are using 10.10 or 10.04 not sure about the previous editions ... | 15:50 |
| agentsmith | 10.04 | 15:50 |
| smw | Krishnandu, sudo apt-get install mono-complete installs more stuff | 15:50 |
| Krishnandu | HHabib1, actually I wanted to know what's the total alternative of GUI development in Linux. As in VB we don't have to think about GUI design, we used to drag and drop widgets and concentrate on development. | 15:50 |
| agentsmith | it's not in encryption and keyrings | 15:50 |
| rootlinuxusr | @rautamiekka Try this, http://ohioloco.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1243293 | 15:50 |
| IdleOne | agentsmith: i don't know in that case | 15:50 |
| HHabib1 | in Mono GTK is good. I use it most of the time. | 15:50 |
| smw | Krishnandu, you have two choices. GTK and QT | 15:50 |
| Krishnandu | But here in qt and gtk+, it seems that I need to concentrate more on creating windows and widgets(writing code for them) rather than concentrating on app development | 15:51 |
| sl33k_ | I cant load up my ubuntu, it shows ====>"gnome power update not installed properly" ? | 15:51 |
| agentsmith | is password and keys in 10.10? | 15:51 |
| smw | Krishnandu, both of them work on windows, mac, and linux | 15:51 |
| HHabib1 | Qt is not for VB as far as I know. it is mostly used with C++ and Python maybe Ruby .. | 15:51 |
| IdleOne | sl33k_: sudo apt-get -f install | 15:51 |
| HHabib1 | Qt runs on windows too Krishanandu | 15:51 |
| Krishnandu | HHabib1, ya qt is in c++ and gtk+ in C, but both have language bindings | 15:51 |
| mun_ | does anyone know why my system can't open OSS and complain that /dev/dsp doesn't exist? indeed /dev/dsp doesn't exist, so am I missing some package? | 15:51 |
| HHabib1 | if you are used to VB then Mono provides the same way you develop on VS ..exactley the same. | 15:52 |
| Chousuke | Krishnandu: there are UI designers for Qt and GTK, but I am inclined to agree. | 15:52 |
| HHabib1 | and you won't miss the usual commands like Msgbx and stuff. | 15:52 |
| ugliefrog | anyone have the n52 gamepad | 15:52 |
| Chousuke | Krishnandu: However I don't think this channel is the best place for that discussion :/ | 15:52 |
| Krishnandu | Chousuke, That's the thing...I need to concentrate on windows programming rather than my application programming | 15:52 |
| smw | !anyone | ugliefrog | 15:53 |
| ubottu | ugliefrog: A large amount of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..." Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out? | 15:53 |
| Krishnandu | Chousuke, come to #ubuntu-offtopic | 15:53 |
| Chousuke | Krishnandu: I am there | 15:53 |
| HHabib1 | the only thing that bugs me about Mono is that it is not smooth with the .NET libraries ... | 15:53 |
| coz_ | Krishnandu, you can also try the ##linux channel | 15:53 |
| ugliefrog | I have a USB n52 game Pad.....when I start Rhytmbox it becomesd unresponsive and hte led lights on it start flashing...HELP | 15:53 |
| HHabib1 | Regardless that using .NET is missing the whole Idea about Ubuntu as a "Free Software" | 15:53 |
| Krishnandu | HHabib1, Well..it's not like that I want to stick with .NET, I can try new things. But qt and gtk+ forces me to write code for creating windows and widgets and etc. rather than on application programming | 15:54 |
| Krishnandu | thanks coz_ | 15:54 |
| HHabib1 | you won't write Code for the GUI when using Mono ..I promise :D | 15:54 |

| LoganJRuff | !ask | FreakyCheeseMan | 17:52 |
| ubottu | FreakyCheeseMan: Please don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line and in the channel, so that others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) | 17:52 |
| olivvv_ | stupid beginner question, whats the equivalent of right click > new file ? | 17:53 |
| GameDude | can you create a sub-version of Ubuntu to use on a game console you are creating? or is there something more you have to go through with the company? | 17:53 |
| magicianlord | how do i know which of those debs to dl? i dont need all of them | 17:53 |
| duffydack | chris|, unplug it, type sudo modprobe snd-usb-audio then plug it in and look at the end of dmesg. also lsusb. one more time | 17:53 |
| magicianlord | like dpkg is already installed | 17:53 |

| duffydack | chris|, does it say Logitech 'anything' ? (brb) | 17:53 |
| FreakyCheeseMan | Ok. I told windows 7 to shrink it's partition space by 500 gigs, which worked- it says there's that much unalocated space. However, when I try to install ubuntu, it says it doesn't have the 2.something gigs it needs, and won't let me proceed. | 17:53 |
| FreakyCheeseMan | Oh, 10.10, 64 bit. | 17:53 |
| sebsebseb | FreakyCheeseMan: how did you try to dual boot? | 17:54 |
| smw | GameDude, you can use it however you like | 17:54 |
| GameDude | sweet | 17:54 |
| FreakyCheeseMan | I burnt a CD. | 17:54 |
| smw | GameDude, If you want to use the ubuntu logo in ads, you need permission | 17:54 |
| LoganJRuff | FreakyCheeseMan, just install Windows, then install Ubuntu. Ubuntu will automatically shrink Windows to your desired size and do all the hard work for you. | 17:54 |
| smw | GameDude, however, those are normally given out free of charge | 17:54 |
| FreakyCheeseMan | Except it didn't- it wouldn't let me proceed, as it said I didn't have enough free space. | 17:54 |
| FreakyCheeseMan | That or it didn't let me proceed for some other reason. | 17:55 |
| FreakyCheeseMan | But the "Next" button was greyed out. | 17:55 |
| collabra | LoganJRuff: he's not using wubi | 17:55 |
| LoganJRuff | FreakyCheeseMan, you shrunk Windows before you used a LiveCD, right? | 17:55 |
| LoganJRuff | collabra, I know | 17:55 |
| Roasted | There was an add-on in synaptic that allowed me to right click a file and "run as administrator" so I could run things as root without booting up gksudo nautilus. Any idea what this was called? | 17:55 |
| Halabund | Hi, I have 20 GB of unallocted free space on my hard drive. How much of that do you think I should assign to the system partition when installing ubuntu (and how much to the home dir)? | 17:55 |
| s5s | hey guys my Logitech wireless (2.4 GHz) mouse isn't working :/ | 17:55 |
| FreakyCheeseMan | Yeah, I shrunk the windows partition by 500 gigs (TB drive) | 17:56 |
| HHabib | s5s: have you tried it on other computer? portably it's a hardware problem ? | 17:56 |
| collabra | FreakyCheeseMan: Windows is showing 500 gigs of free space? | 17:56 |
| LoganJRuff | Halabund, / needs at least 7 gigs and /home gets whatever is left over after the other parts | 17:57 |
| FreakyCheeseMan | 500 gigs of unallocated space, yes. | 17:57 |
| s5s | HHabib: mouse works perfectly well on other computers and I think it worked perfectly well in Lynx | 17:57 |
| HHabib | s5s: did you check the batteries ? :) | 17:57 |
| FreakyCheeseMan | Well, 460.5 gigs. | 17:57 |
| s5s | HHabib: Of course. I think this is a pointless quiestion | 17:58 |
| joel__ | CAN one start there own ubuntu business? is there help for that | 17:58 |
| LoganJRuff | joel__, what do you have in mind? | 17:58 |
| s5s | HHabib: It is ubuntu - I'm just trying to find out what exactly it is. I thing it might be ther driver | 17:58 |
| IdleOne | joel__: yes you can but offtopic for this channel | 17:58 |
| LoganJRuff | joel__, Go to #ubuntu-offtopic | 17:58 |
| joel__ | actually have a location where computers and printers can be purchased. | 17:59 |

| joel__ | With certificate? | 17:59 |
| === Xeross is now known as Xeross|AFK | ||
| collabra | FreakyCheeseMan: windows sometimes still takes up that space without a partition,... have you made sure that 500 gigs is actually free? | 17:59 |
| s5s | Why doesn't modprobe evdev insert module evdev? I have the module installed | 17:59 |
| collabra | FreakyCheeseMan: and then,... what is ubuntu saying on install,... it shows no free space when you partition for ubuntu? | 18:00 |
| FreakyCheeseMan | Collabra: How would I do that? Also, the system is new- I just got it yesterday, window's hasn't had a lot of time to mess things up yet. | 18:00 |
| LoganJRuff | collabra, That's what I was thinking - because he parted it in windows. Windows is a bit of a selfish child and likes to make sure he's not parting the room for Linux, or anything else Windows doesn't approve of and; therefore, will continue to keep the room allocated | 18:00 |
| joel__ | thanks you so much.,, i'm rreally going to set up a PASS with social security | 18:00 |
| joel__ | and i have a goal | 18:00 |

| Halabund | LoganJRuff, thanks, that's useful info | 18:01 |
| collabra | FreakyCheeseMan: no,... LoganJRuff,... that's not what i'm saying,... windows allocates the space before partitioning,... i'm just wondering if windows is allocating that 500 gigs,... | 18:01 |
| FreakyCheeseMan | collabra: I boot rom the CD, if I say "Try" it works, if I say "Install" it says "For best results have these three things (power supply, internet access, 2.something gigs free), and only has the first or first two checked off (other internet issues I think I've resolved, more on that later) From there it won't let me proceed. | 18:01 |
| s5s | Why TF doesn't modprobe do what I tell it to do!!! I want to insert evdev into the kernel and it doesn't to it! | 18:02 |
| sshc | Hello, Ubuntuers. Sometimes my wallpaper (the one with cherries) starts to appear blocky. Does this sound familiar to you? | 18:02 |
| === bitsflash is now known as flashkidd | ||
| collabra | FreakyCheeseMan: i would suggest going back to windows and make sure that allocation in windows is fully deleted before proceeding. | 18:02 |
| FreakyCheeseMan | collabra: I have the window open right now- it says it's unallocated, and doesn't give me an option to delete beyond that. What should I do? | 18:03 |
| collabra | FreakyCheeseMan: then,.... in ubuntu,... make sure you fully understand the install process. | 18:03 |
| sshc | Sometimes Firefox's text also becomes unreadable and strange; it might be related? | 18:03 |

| collabra | FreakyCheeseMan: hmmm,... then, I think you might be misunderstanding the ubuntu install... | 18:05 |
| smw | hi bigtux | 18:05 |
| FreakyCheeseMan | collabra: It's extremely possible, but it didn't give me a lot of room to misunderstand. | 18:05 |
| collabra | FreakyCheeseMan: Cause' windows has no control over that partition when the ubuntu disc is running | 18:06 |
| === flashkidd is now known as bitsflash | ||
| collabra | FreakyCheeseMan: maybe ubuntu cant find the 500,... you might need to manually partition | 18:06 |
| sshc | Hello, Ubuntuers. Sometimes my wallpaper (the one with cherries) starts to appear blocky. Does this sound familiar to you? | 18:06 |
| === bitsflash is now known as flashkidd | ||
| collabra | FreakyCheeseMan: is it a RAID or something | 18:07 |
| FreakyCheeseMan | collabra: I'm willing to try it, but it didn't let me proceed beyond that point. How would I partition manually? | 18:07 |
| FreakyCheeseMan | collabra: The hard drive? Let me check. | 18:07 |
| collabra | FreakyCheeseMan: multiple harddrives? | 18:08 |
| jasono | Hi, new Ubuntu Team/Project on Launchpad. Members needed. https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-advertising | 18:08 |
| FreakyCheeseMan | collabra: No, just the one. Can't tell if it's RAID or not- my tech skills are a mite rusty, I've been using a mac for the last six years. | 18:08 |
| collabra | FreakyCheeseMan: if there is only one harddrive,... it isn't raid | 18:08 |
| === flashkidd is now known as bitsflash | ||
| FreakyCheeseMan | collabra: Ok. | 18:09 |
| collabra | !partitioning | 18:09 |
| ubottu | For help with partitioning a new install see: https://help.ubuntu.com/8.04/switching/installing-partitioning.html - For partitioning programs see !GParted, !QtParted (!Kubuntu 8.10 and lower) or !PartitionManager (!Kubuntu 9.04 and up) - Other partitioning topics include !fstab !home and !swap | 18:09 |
| collabra | FreakyCheeseMan: check that out ^^^^^^ | 18:09 |
| FreakyCheeseMan | collabra: It occurs to me that it might have been complaining about the connection rather than the free space when it wouldn't let me proceed (am checking link). If that's the case it still wouldn't explain why it thought it didn't have enough space, but might be something I could solve later.... should the CD be able to install from an offline computer? | 18:10 |
| sshc | Hello, Ubuntuers. Sometimes my wallpaper (the one with cherries) starts to appear blocky. Does this sound familiar to you? | 18:10 |
| collabra | FreakyCheeseMan: get to know it,... and manually partition... all you'll likely have to do is show ubuntu the partition and then do a 'guided partitioning' ,.... if ubuntu has that,... i'm not sure. | 18:11 |
| torpedo | hello to everyone, i have an doubt with the net gestor of ubuntu | 18:11 |
| collabra | FreakyCheeseMan: yeah,.. if you download the 'live' cd ,... i suggest LTS,... you'll have the whole O.S. on disk... then after you get online,... you'll update it | 18:12 |
| FreakyCheeseMan | collabra: Ok. Would I do that from the "Try It" option (ie, running ubuntu from the CD without installing), or the installation process? Cause I never got to any of these options during the installation. | 18:12 |
| FreakyCheeseMan | Alright. | 18:13 |
| collabra | FreakyCheeseMan: either one,... whichever works,... boot without installing,.. OR straight to the install.... | 18:13 |
| FreakyCheeseMan | collabra: Alright, thanks for the help. May be back in a while after I try it- need to finish getting AVG up on the windows half before I do any more rebooting. | 18:14 |

| Yownanymous | I'm trying to install an installer through wine (that I know is completely safe) but it's going on about permission-bit being required and not letting me run it at all, how do I get around it? | 18:17 |
| torpedo | sorry for my english, i'm using network manager and appears a monitor | 18:17 |
| smw | torpedo, have you tried #ubuntu-es? | 18:17 |
| Gerwin | Yownanymous: Right-click the file, click the Permissions tab, and enable the 'Program can be run as executable' option, or something similar. | 18:17 |
| Yownanymous | that's ridiculous | 18:18 |
| Yownanymous | why don't they just give you a warning? | 18:18 |
| Yownanymous | too much authoritative crap in ubuntu as of late | 18:18 |
| torpedo | smw yes, but they don't know what's that | 18:18 |
| Gerwin | >_> | 18:18 |
| chandrageetha | how to add my yahoo contact account on empathy? | 18:19 |
| smw | torpedo, I do not know what you are talking about either. But that might be because of the language barrier | 18:19 |
| smw | chandrageetha, I told you | 18:19 |
| smw | chandrageetha, click on your username in the top right corner. Then click "chat accounts" | 18:19 |
| dogarrhea1 | so apparently openvpn is useless | 18:20 |

| doriangrey | smw, yes | 18:23 |
| smw | click the left arrow key to select the accept button, then click enter | 18:23 |
| coz_ | karthick87, did you go into system/preferences/keyboard shortcuts and check or change the keybinding? | 18:24 |
| dogarrhea1 | smw, it has no use for me because their software is buggy and useless, correct. | 18:24 |
| dogarrhea1 | like i can download and install wireshark and it works | 18:24 |
| Ards | exit | 18:24 |
| dogarrhea1 | i can download openvpn and it has copyright 2002-2005 on the client software | 18:24 |
| dogarrhea1 | and doesn't work | 18:24 |
| dogarrhea1 | and errors on install | 18:24 |
| dogarrhea1 | when i run the installer. and this is packaged with latest 2.1.4 on openvpn's site | 18:25 |

| Random832 | sebsebseb, when i log out of X my network disconnects. this _seems_ to be by design since network mnager runs iin te panel, but how do i change it without losing the ability to pick a network from the menu | 18:25 |
| dogarrhea1 | smw, are you on windows 7 64 bit? | 18:25 |

| Gerwin | torpedo: That means it's an ad-hoc network, a direct connection between computers, without a router in between. | 18:25 |
| smw | dogarrhea1, I installed it on ubuntu just fine | 18:25 |
| smw | dogarrhea1, I have not used it on windows | 18:25 |
| chandrageetha | yes, clicked, and? | 18:25 |
| dogarrhea1 | that's where we differ smw.. | 18:25 |

| NOBLE-6 | hi awanna brodcasting from my computer which program should I use? | 18:40 |
| dogarrhea1 | smw, if you can't help you don't have to respond lol | 18:41 |
| chandrageetha | dear smw, actually what i am doing when i create account there? | 18:41 |
| rkokkelk | exit | 18:41 |
| smw | chandrageetha, what you add an account to empathy, it logs you in. Empathy can handle multiple accounts at the same time. | 18:41 |
| NOBLE-6 | any program for brodcastin radio by internet i will use it in ubuntu SO | 18:41 |
| Gerwin | dogarrhea1: As smw told you several times, you're asking for Windows help in an Ubuntu channel, no one will help you. | 18:42 |
| dogarrhea1 | i noticed | 18:42 |
| smw | chandrageetha, I do not know exactly how to do it. It should be pretty obvious once you click the "chat accounts" button | 18:42 |
| chandrageetha | in empathy i hv already created my yahoo account, but is not highlighted. so cannot click on that | 18:43 |

| smw | _SKiTZO, never used it... I like wicd personally. But you need to disable networkmanager to use it | 18:48 |

| smw | !wicd | _SKiTZO | 18:48 |
| smw | !info wicd | _SKiTZO | 18:48 |
| ubottu | _SKiTZO: wicd (source: wicd): wired and wireless network manager - metapackage. In component universe, is optional. Version 1.7.0+ds1-5 (maverick), package size 40 kB, installed size 88 kB | 18:48 |
| androidbruce | rooks, it's not a lan based scanner, it's attached to a windows machine then shared. so it's smb | 18:48 |
| smw | _SKiTZO, tell me how cnetworkmanager works :-). | 18:49 |
| _SKiTZO | smw: its quite astounding that a large distro like ubuntu doesnt come with a default set of wifi management for comandline that doesn't suck :P (i am assuming here that cnetworkmanager sucks) | 18:49 |
| _SKiTZO | smw i will :D | 18:49 |
| rooks | androidbruce, my bet would be that windows box doesnt propagate scanning function to others, does scanning work on other windows boxes? | 18:49 |
| androidbruce | rooks, yeah haven't tried adding the shared scanner | 18:50 |
| androidbruce | on other windows machines | 18:50 |
| androidbruce | i can try with my wife's lappy | 18:50 |
| dogarrhea1 | what are the differences between proxy servers and NAT services? | 18:50 |
| androidbruce | i should prob just make my ubuntu machine the host | 18:50 |
| smw | _SKiTZO, they focus on the gui... | 18:50 |
| dogarrhea1 | do they both do the same thing? | 18:50 |
| _SKiTZO | it appears to me that it isnt in apt | 18:51 |
| _SKiTZO | or preinstalled | 18:51 |
| _SKiTZO | thats just mean.. no easy way to manage wifi from the shell | 18:52 |
| smw | dogarrhea1, no, they are not the same. NAT is low level routing. Proxies are at a higher level | 18:52 |
| smw | dogarrhea1, nat is a subset of proxy actually | 18:52 |

| ubottu | Zenger: Please don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line and in the channel, so that others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) | 18:54 |
| _SKiTZO | lyrae: i knew a command but i forgot it. it owuld let you script a screenshot | 18:54 |
| FreakyCheeseMan | partition. The installer won't let me proceed (don't know if that's because of the lack of space or the connection), and I can't figure out how to fix things while running from the CD. In fact, it's given me no indication that it recognizes the hard drive at all. | 18:54 |

| phillyj | bashrc and .profile had a bunch of 'if' statements but no PATH=$..... line | 18:54 |
| _SKiTZO | lyrae: you could run it from the script | 18:55 |

| FreakyCheeseMan | rigved: Possible but not practical, as we somehow don't own an ethernet cable, and I'd have to move the machine to do so anyway; may buy a cable later today, but I want to make sure that will solve the problem first, including the bit with the hard drive. | 18:59 |

| _SKiTZO | dominicdinada: df -haT will show all mounts | 19:02 |
| FreakyCheeseMan | rigved: yes, assuming live CD means the same thing as "That thing I downloaded from the ubuntu website and burned onto a DVD". It doesn't work perfectly though- some programs don't seem to want to open, and I've found nothing that indicates that it knows about the hard drive. | 19:02 |

| FreakyCheeseMan | (Am semi-new to Linux- tried it once before without much success, ~6 years ago. Been using a mac since) | 19:03 |
| rigved | FreakyCheeseMan: yes. LiveCD is when you run th eUbuntu OS from your DVD without installing it first. | 19:03 |
| _SKiTZO | same goes for cdroms, usbkeys etc | 19:03 |
| _SKiTZO | /mnt is reserved for internal drives that are likely to be part of the system | 19:03 |

| rigved | FreakyCheeseMan: then start the LiveCD. do not install. then check if it detects your hard drives | 19:04 |

| rigved | FreakyCheeseMan: check using GUI. under Places | 19:05 |
| rigved | FreakyCheeseMan: or you can use CLI | 19:05 |
| _SKiTZO | FreakyCheeseMan: the whole os actully runs from the CD, so you can see what works and not :) | 19:05 |
| shcherbak | phillyj: PATH=$PATH:/usr/hla you do not need more (~/.bashrc serve for one user only) | 19:05 |
| _SKiTZO | FreakyCheeseMan: once you are satisfied (or not) you can decided whether or not to install. installing is just an icon on the desktop | 19:05 |
| FreakyCheeseMan | _SkiTZO: That's actually somewhat worrying, as the OS has been a little buggy- I assumed such was the result of limited functionality due to the CD. Still, I'm pretty sure I want to install- but the installation process isn't working. | 19:06 |
| shcherbak | Zenger: what card are you using (and driver), try in menu Apperance to enable desktp effects | 19:06 |
| _SKiTZO | FreakyCheeseMan: the install wizard will be really friendly along the way and provide all sorts of options for dualbooting, installing inside or erasing, and will warn you if you ever try to do something "dangerous" | 19:06 |
| Zenger | yep , it crashes when doing that =( | 19:06 |
| _SKiTZO | FreakyCheeseMan: what harware are you running on? | 19:07 |
| shcherbak | Zenger: your cars may not handle compiz | 19:07 |

As for failing, on the live CD it just flashed the "joining" icon for a while then re-prompts me for the password (doesn't say it's wrong, it just restarts.)

| AprilToo | Installing 10.10 server from a USB, it boots fine and I get several steps into the installation. Then it says failed to copy file from CDROM, retry? yes or no. I can execute to the ash shell and see that my USB drive is mounted /cdrom and the contents of it. | 19:31 |

| AprilToo | beuken: did you use pendrivelinux.com to make the USB? | 19:33 |
| TheSlob | FreakyCheeseMan: if you can recycle a linksys wrt54G (version 2-4) or a linksys wrt54gL then you can use that with dd-wrt firmware | 19:33 |

| === parrot is now known as Guest36178 | ||
| _SKiTZO | wrt's rule :D | 19:33 |
| TheSlob | FreakyCheeseMan: or check the dd-wrt website for other compatible hardware | 19:33 |
| FreakyCheeseMan | _SKiTZO: Well, if I were to use what I'm thinking of, it should mean it no longer goes through either of my two wireless cards at all. I think. And signal strength has been an issue- my house is several hundred feet from the router, so that was a problem with my old computer. Right now I have this one set up in the spare bedrrom of my dad's place, to make sure I'm only wrestling with one problem at a time. | 19:33 |

| FreakyCheeseMan | The connection is only half the problem, though- maybe even less. Right now I'm having two issues at installation, one or both of which are preventing me from moving forward- lack of network access and lack of hard drive space. The latter mystifies me. | 19:34 |
| _SKiTZO | FreakyCheeseMan: the behavious you are describing of he link working lisghtly then going out and so forth is perfectly normal when the signal strength is borderline | 19:34 |

I'm able to get online on the windows half through an external USB wireless card, but I had to install drivers and ubuntu doesn't seem to be recognizing it. | 19:39 |
| marcio_ | I had a problem with my DVD... it is mounted but I could not playback it, could someone help me? | 19:39 |
| AprilToo | beuken: look further on their site - they do have a linux on linux USB instruction that may be different than what you did | 19:39 |
| _SKiTZO | ace_steel: i dont even know what gok is so you will have to just lay it out there and hope that someone will pick up on it. no guarantees | 19:39 |
| FreakyCheeseMan | I have no idea why it thinks it doesn't have enough space, and everything aimed at fixing that seems to take place futher down the line than it's letting me get. I think ubuntu may not be recognizing the existence of the HD at all. | 19:39 |
| FreakyCheeseMan | I'm unsure whether it's the lack of internet, the lack of space or both that's making the installation refuse to proceed. | 19:40 |
| ace_steel | _SKiTZO, its an onscreen keyboard | 19:40 |
| traskmind | I'm running Unity (ubuntu-netbook) on my laptop here on 10.10, but whenever I boot into Netbook Edition I get my wallpaper but the side bar and top bar are both missing (they flash every once in a while however).

| shcherbak | tripelb: for net speed (real one) -- speedtest.net, steaming video is rather bad idea, rather download if you can (vlc, mplayer can play movies while downloading and mplayer have better audio syn), load (top htop) will tell you rest | 19:42 |
| ace_steel | _SKiTZO, i downloaded it frm synaptic pkg mangr | 19:42 |
| rofflecoptor | my ubuntu broke :( | 19:42 |
| MalelDraconis | how do you download something to wine? i.e.: yahoo messenger? | 19:42 |
| _SKiTZO | ace_steel: i won't be able to help you because i dont know anything about it. but if you put your problem precisely into words then someone else might be able to identify with your problem and help you :) | 19:43 |
| shcherbak | MalelDraconis: procces like with standart windows install | 19:43 |
| traskmind | MalelDraconis, make sure Wine is already installed and ready to go, then you download the Windows installation file of the application you want (Yahoo Messenger) and run it with Wine (right click, Open with Wine). | 19:43 |
| shcherbak | !wine | MalelDraconis | 19:43 |

I said movies not streamed work well. Youtube and Jon Stewart only stream. Watching a stream is normal. -- 3. I see htop could be better http://htop.sourceforge.net/index.php?page=comparison | 20:13 |
| jjovereats | Since SSD write speeds are much better than those of HDDs, journaling is unnecessary because of the high unlikelyhood of data corruption (because it writes so fast. REIUB is all that is needed on ext2.) | 20:13 |

| Chiwauwa | Is autofs the way to go if I have a '/something is not ready yet or not present" issue during startup related to a mount of a NFS share? I assume that this is due to a race condition ... or is there a more simple approach ... I've spent an hour or so on autofs and that brought me nowhere even though it looks fairly straigth forward. Thanks. | 20:22 |

| almostsix | I'm having keyboard problems. I'm running Lucid Lynx, converted from Xubuntu using http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/puregnome. I had the problem before, too. The problem is that, occasionally, keyboard input is ignored entirely. Changing the focus somewhere else and then back again fixes it. | 20:38 |
| Consigliar | helplessat well, you have to grep for the text whereever; use slocate too to find the right file to edit | 20:38 |
| Chiwauwa | canthus13, just at the end or does it has to be in a specific order? | 20:38 |

| Chiwauwa | canthus13, trying now with 50 | 20:45 |

| jjovereats | Cannot help you there. If it's USB, set it up that ay. If it's two jacks, plug them in. | 20:45 |

| FiNKu | shachaf: well bonding is just improving availabilty, you're not increasing bandwidth. | 20:46 |

| firewaterburnz | Is there a way in ubuntu to manually assign a driver to a usb device? | 20:47 |
| FiNKu | almostsix: i would start by looking in messages.log in about the time you had the issue | 20:47 |
| jjovereats | firewaterburnz: That's debian stuff. | 20:47 |
| firewaterburnz | r u saying debian can but ubuntu can not jjovereats? | 20:48 |
| jjovereats | No, but I am saying it's harder than debian. Ubuntu is supposed to be user friendly. | 20:48 |
| FiNKu | shachaf: I'm not 100% sure about this, but I think your source IP would always be the first interface listed within the subnet required, prob thus eth0 | 20:48 |
| jjovereats | It's Ubuntu, not umbuntu. | 20:48 |
| Chiwauwa | Consigliar, did you propose to mount in rc.local? | 20:49 |

| geboy | Seveas: what do you mean leaving the extra package. i actually want to remove things i don't need quickly, i'm running a virtual machine and LAMP and Radius in one box :) | 21:34 |
| merlin2049er | sup | 21:34 |
| Seveas | geboy, then use debfoster to clean up | 21:35 |
| merlin2049er | i've got trouble upgrading to 10.10 | 21:35 |
| michaelxq | joeyeye, thanks for the help mate | 21:35 |
| Seveas | it's a very nice tool | 21:35 |
| shcherbak | Seveas: silly of me, but still it does not have permissions | 21:35 |
| geboy | thats all this pc will do, but i need the most minimal gui to mess around since i'm not yet familiar with the terminal commands | 21:35 |
| joeyeye | michaelxq, FreeRapid is good I've heard | 21:35 |
| merlin2049er | whats freerapid? | 21:36 |
| Seveas | shcherbak, just never do .* for dotfiles. At one point you try to rm dotfiles as root and will wipe more than you wanted :) | 21:36 |
| electrofreak | Seveas, been there, done that :-P | 21:36 |
| Seveas | electrofreak, you're not the only one :) | 21:36 |
| Seveas | I've never done it myself, but had the pleasure of seeing a colleague wreck a server :) | 21:36 |
| Chiwauwa | canthus13/Consiglier: adding 'hard' to fstab seemed to do the trick. I took a long detour due to the fact that I at some point had added a ' to the top of the file :-s A message is now shortly shown and then the boot procedure is continuing ... I guess it manages to get connected and the continues. Thank you. | 21:37 |
| shcherbak | Seveas: yes, good lesson, does exlude help here? | 21:37 |
| intrader | Anyone, slow YouTube sound/video Ubuntu Maverick on T61p laptop compared to Windows Vista on lesser machine R61 laptop | 21:37 |
| jjoo | zsh helps :) | 21:37 |
| Seveas | laptop crashed while ssh'ed to a server where he had vim open with lots of open files. He thought he'd remove vims swapfiles with rm .* :) | 21:37 |
| geboy | gonna try that debfoster. thanks alot Seveas, shcherbak | 21:38 |
| electrofreak | Seveas, yea, I did it several years ago. right after I hit enter I was like "Oh shiiiii..... Ctrl+C+C+C+C+C!!!!" | 21:38 |
| merlin2049er | whats with "could not calculate the change?" | 21:38 |
| merlin2049er | i can't upgrade | 21:38 |
| Seveas | merlin2049er, that means you've confused apt. What are you trying to do? | 21:38 |
| ActionParsnip | intrader: what windows does is of no value, its a different OS with different support | 21:39 |
| merlin2049er | upgrade to 10.10 from 10.04 | 21:39 |
| Seveas | and how are you doing that? | 21:39 |
| merlin2049er | using the built in upgrade button | 21:39 |
| merlin2049er | when i check for updates | 21:39 |
| Seveas | ok, then you're at least trying to do it the right way :) | 21:39 |
| merlin2049er | k | 21:40 |
| Seveas | the error message says more than not being able to calculate. Can you pastebin the complete error? | 21:40 |
| merlin2049er | should i download the iso | 21:40 |
| merlin2049er | hmm, where would i find that | 21:40 |
| ActionParsnip | intrader: can you give the output of: uname -a; lsb_release -a; dpkg -l | grep flash; dpkg -l | grep swf; dpkg -l | grep gnash use http://pastie.org to give the output | 21:40 |
| electrofreak | anyway... does anyone have experience with Overclocking Phenom II in Linux? I've bumped the multi upto 18.5x for 3.7GHz, but as soon as I go to 19x, Cool n quiet disables. So then I decided to start bumping up the FSB (my goal is 4.0GHz), but when I boot Ubuntu, /proc/cpuinfo seems to indicate it is still only at 3.7 (when I add load, of course) | 21:41 |
| intrader | ActionParsnip, true, but I don't enjoy youtube on ubuntu maverick. the sound is properly synchronized with the video. So when I watch youtube I use the less powerful R61 machine running Windows Vista. I think ubuntu should do better. | 21:41 |
| ActionParsnip | merlin2049er: use the server upgrade method on the upgrade page, you need to edit one file first so it looks for normal upgrades rather than wanting to stick to LTS releases | 21:41 |
| merlin2049er | what server upgrade method? | 21:41 |
| Seveas | merlin2049er, in the same place as where you see that error. Maybe a more info button? (Sorry, I don't know that gui very well, I upgrade from the CLI) | 21:41 |
| ActionParsnip | intrader: ubuntu can and does, we just need to do some investigating | 21:41 |
| merlin2049er | ok, how do i upgrade from cli | 21:42 |
| merlin2049er | i think i got the same problem with the cli | 21:42 |
| ActionParsnip | !upgrade | merlin2049er | 21:42 |
| ubottu | merlin2049er: For upgrading, see the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes - see also http://www.ubuntu.com/desktop/get-ubuntu/upgrade | 21:42 |
| ActionParsnip | merlin2049er: did you edit the releases file? | 21:42 |

| merlin2049er | no | 21:42 |

| XenoPhoenix | Hi guys, I have a x64 10.10 server install on a gigabyte GA6KIEH-RH board, ALC883 audio. I'm trying to get surround sound working for xbmx however however alsa mixer does not show any other channels than front? Any help is appreciated :) | 21:43 |
| ActionParsnip | intrader: scroll up | 21:43 |
| intrader | ActionParsnip, oh! | 21:43 |
| merlin2049er | ok hold on | 21:44 |
| merlin2049er | third party sources disabled | 21:44 |
| merlin2049er | so far | 21:44 |
| ActionParsnip | XenoPhoenix: doesnt xbmc need an x server? | 21:44 |
| XenoPhoenix | ActionParsnop: yeah I have one install one it :) | 21:45 |
| XenoPhoenix | installed even | 21:45 |
| merlin2049er | how do u edit the release file? | 21:45 |
| ActionParsnip | XenoPhoenix: so why install server, when you wanted a desktop OS? | 21:45 |
| ActionParsnip | merlin2049er: gksudo gedit /path/to/file | 21:46 |
| halabund | Just installed Ubuntu 10.10 (dual boot with XP). Now the computer won't boot at all, all I get is "grub: out of disk". (I booted from the live cd now...). What can I do? | 21:46 |
| merlin2049er | what's the file called? | 21:46 |
| ActionParsnip | merlin2049er: its in the release notes, read the notes and you will find the file, thats why i gave the link.... | 21:46 |
| XenoPhoenix | ActionParsnip: I don't want a desktop OS, I don't use it as a desktop it's primarily a fileserver / but considering it sits in my living room and hosts all my media it makes sense to use it for XBMC too considering it is perfectly capabale :) | 21:46 |
| merlin2049er | ic | 21:47 |
| f8ejf | Hello. Anybody knows if/why the uinput module is missing in the 2.6.35-22-generic kernel in Maverick? | 21:47 |
| ActionParsnip | XenoPhoenix: the whole idea of the server is to NOT have an x server to reduce used resources and to improve security | 21:47 |
| merlin2049er | still downloading something | 21:47 |
| ActionParsnip | XenoPhoenix: a fileserver does not need any special stuff so using the server OS for that is really obscure | 21:47 |
| electrofreak | anyway... does anyone have experience with overclocking Phenom II in Linux? I've bumped the multi upto 18.5x for 3.7GHz, but as soon as I go to 19x, Cool n quiet disables. So then I decided to start bumping up the FSB (my goal is 4.0GHz), but when I boot Ubuntu, /proc/cpuinfo seems to indicate it is still only at 3.7 (when I add load, of course).

| Xplat_ | Hi, does anyone know of a recent program for ubuntu that emulates Mac OS X and Windows? | 21:49 |
| XenoPhoenix | ActionParsnip: I do a lot more that just that on it, that isn't really the issue here and desktop doesn't make a difference anyway as i tested with a live CD to see if it was a server kernal issue anyway | 21:49 |
| ActionParsnip | intrader: try: sudo apt-get --purge remove flashplugin-installer; sudo apt-get --purge autoremove; sudo apt-get clean; sudo apt-get update; sudo apt-get install flashplugin-nonfree | 21:49 |
| k23 | Xplat_: you mean virtualbox? | 21:49 |

| ayush | is there a linux equivalent for the Mac OS X spotlight? | 21:50 |

| merlin2049er | http://pastebin.com/6Kx3Acn2 | 21:51 |
| merlin2049er | thats what i get | 21:51 |
| k23 | Xplat_: ok | 21:51 |
| f8ejf | Anybody knows if/why the uinput module is missing in the 2.6.35-22-generic kernel in Maverick? | 21:51 |
| Seveas | merlin2049er, and nothing error like above that message? | 21:51 |
| Xplat_ | greezmunkey: yes, that's what the jist of my situation is. | 21:52 |

| === ayush is now known as ayush_ | ||
| Seveas | geboy, -minimal and -standard should stay there. I thought you wanted to remove all gui apps though, but now you say you need xfce? | 21:53 |
| greezmunkey | Xplat_: I do not know of one for OSX, but there is wine (a windows emulator) | 21:53 |
| === edson is now known as ecanto | ||
| merlin2049er | no , maybe it's my nvidia driver? | 21:53 |
| intrader | ActionParsnip, please give the command as pastebin so I can see it in the T61P machine. I have tried copying screen and messed up. | 21:53 |
| === ecanto is now known as dmesg | ||
| Xplat_ | greezmunky: I know of Wine, but I want one for OS X. | 21:53 |
| Seveas | merlin2049er, most likely reason is that a package from a 3rd party repo is messing things up | 21:53 |
| karthick87 | How to add guest account without password? | 21:54 |

| Seveas | nuffaaha, search help.ubuntu.com for screencast | 21:54 |
| Seveas | greezmunkey, only tangentially | 21:54 |
| nuffaaha | thank you | 21:54 |
| intrader | ActionParsnip, still there? | 21:54 |
| greezmunkey | Seveas: now there's a ten dollar word :) | 21:55 |
| nuffaaha | and if i run into difficulties, what is another idea for this | 21:55 |
| MalelDraconis | Xplat_, http://mac-on-linux.sourceforge.net/wiki/index.php/FAQ | 21:55 |
| halabund | Just installed Ubuntu 10.10 (dual boot with XP). Now the computer won't boot at all, all I get is "grub: out of disk". (I booted from the live cd now...). What can I do? | 21:55 |
| geboy | Seveas:no no, i mean, i'm using xfce, but i need the least resource-eater gui. i read one of debfoster in the ubuntu forum and a guide to make ubuntu as least as it could while having a desktop with xfce | 21:55 |
| Seveas | greezmunkey, I'll msg you my account number so you can transfer the $10 :) | 21:55 |
| Xplat_ | greezmunky: sort of, but I'm looking for an operating system or some software that emulates the operating systems. | 21:55 |
| greezmunkey | Seveas: heh | 21:55 |
| rooks | nuffaaha, recordmydesktop command | 21:55 |
| merlin2049er | i disabled all the sources in the repository | 21:55 |
| merlin2049er | might that work? | 21:55 |
| Xplat_ | MaleDraconis: I need a PPC computer to use that. | 21:55 |
| MalelDraconis | hmm | 21:56 |
| Seveas | geboy, then be very careful about ubuntu-desktop. Pruning that with debfoster will remove too much. Removing it with apt-get will not | 21:56 |
| nuffaaha | what is the command? sudo apt-get rcordmydesktop ? | 21:56 |
| MalelDraconis | *shrugs* I can't even figure out how to get net working for Wine, so no idea | 21:56 |
| Xplat_ | I guess what I want is a combined kernel operating system or something that allowes me to combine kernels of diferent OSes into one. | 21:56 |
| geboy | Seveas, so i'll just let that 4 package there, i asume for the sake of the day... | 21:57 |
| Xplat_ | Like the dead project that is: E/OS. | 21:57 |

| MalelDraconis | probably best to just dual-boot, Xplat_ | 21:57 |

| antivirtel | hello all, I've just installed 5x(the 5th try) ubuntu 10.4 to a Pentium II based system, with 147 MB RAM and with 3GB + 10 GB HDDs, and this grub "kills my ideas", never started this system, at last: "error: unknown filesystem", the partitioning: hda - 3GB[hda1|200MB,/boot, ext3; hda2|3GB,swap] & hdb - 10GB[hda1|10GB, /, ext4] What is my mistake?!... I think the partitioning is *wrong*. | 21:58 |
| Seveas | antivirtel, use a computer built in *this* century. | 21:58 |
| guntbert | karthick87: such an acount should already be there | 21:58 |
| antivirtel | :D:D:D | 21:58 |
| MalelDraconis | so... anyone know how to fix net problems with Wine??? | 21:58 |
| POVaddct | cliana35: you have to set a default route over the router's ip adress: route add default gw <ip-of-the-router> | 21:58 |
| Xplat_ | MaleDraconis: I found something called E/OS LX, but the project is dead and taken by another project, and I can't find the files anywhere. | 21:59 |

| MalelDraconis | Xplat_, that sucks.. | 21:59 |
| Romanaski | i need a favor and help | 21:59 |
| merlin2049er | how do i figure out which package is broken | 21:59 |
| abarbaccia | hey for some reason no Ubuntu One options show up in nautilus. is this broken for 10.10? | 21:59 |
| Xplat_ | MaleDraconis: Is there a replacement? | 21:59 |
| intrader | ActionParsnip, I copied by email to the other machine and executed the commands to uninstall, reinstall flash | 22:00 |
| cliana35 | POVaddct: so its route add default gw <ip-of-the-router> and then ifconfig eth0 <ipthatiwant> netmask 255.255.255.0 up ? | 22:00 |
| Romanaski | ubuntu server installed.. and i edited one line in the ntp.conf so time can be closer to mine, becauyse server time is almost a day off and throws logs outta wack.. well i changed it and its still not changing the time.. is there another way to change the time ? | 22:00 |
| guntbert | karthick87: it is active, click on the top right the "off" button and see "guest session§" | 22:00 |
| MalelDraconis | Xplat_, I have no idea, I'm in here trying to figure out how to get Wine progs to connect to the net.. so I'm kinda lost on this subject | 22:00 |

I think the partitioning is *wrong*... | 22:00 |
| POVaddct | cliana35: no, you must set the default route _after_ setting your own ip | 22:00 |

| cliana35 | POVaddct: :) | 22:01 |
| POVaddct | cliana35: and of course your own ip must be in the same subnet as the router's ip | 22:01 |
| MalelDraconis | Xplat_, I just did a quick net search of your question 'cause I was curious about that too | 22:01 |
| cliana35 | POVaddct: yes :P | 22:01 |
| joeyeye | Starlight, Any x86/AMD PC will run ubuntu ... | 22:01 |
| Starlight | joeyeye: And to get it to run virtualizations? And does all the new hardware have Ubuntu drivers? | 22:02 |
| merlin2049er | how about just downloading the iso and upgrading from that? | 22:02 |
| intrader | ActionParsnip, In the small screen it is acceptable, but full screen, not quite. The Windows Vista on slower machine is dead right | 22:03 |
| merlin2049er | argh | 22:03 |
| joeyeye | Starlight, do you mean run a VM to host other OS's ? If so, yes - use VirtualBox from Oracle | 22:03 |
| merlin2049er | this sucks | 22:03 |
| detuneyourradio | hi guys. i'm having networking issues with ubuntu. i can connect to the router but not to the internet. it's not my eth card, the cable, or the modem, or the router, checked all those. just stopped working suddenly. anyone aware of a recent issue i might have? | 22:03 |
| Seveas | merlin2049er, does /var/log/dist-upgrade/apt.log provide any clues? | 22:03 |
| MalelDraconis | Really need an answer to this question, I've asked several times w/o any response: I can't get Wine programs to access the net at all, how do I fix this, I've checked the Wine faq's/documentation, can't find anything | 22:03 |
| Seveas | merlin2049er, or /var/log/dist-upgrade/main.log | 22:04 |
| greezmunkey | antivirtel: I am no expert, but I don't think it is too good of an idea to mix ext3, and ext4 in the same system. It may work, but it just seems wrong. | 22:04 |
| intrader | ActionParsnip, exactly the same screen size on both - only difference is the OS and the version of flash for the OS | 22:04 |
| Romanaski | i went into the NTP.conf | 22:04 |

| merlin2049er | yeah i think i did | 22:05 |
| greezmunkey | antivirtel: use ext3 then, put your boot and swap on the small drive, and /hoome on the large one. Try that. | 22:05 |
| detuneyourradio | joeyeye: i also have dual boot on my desktop where i'm having the problem and windows can connect fine. but when i boot into ubuntu, network manager says i'm connected but i can only connect to the router. any requests to websites etc through firefox or other programs just immediately timeout. | 22:06 |

| joeyeye | detuneyourradio, 2 name servers ? Is that what you expect ? 1 of them at least should be the address of your router | 22:08 |
| Romanaski | can anyone help me? | 22:08 |
| joeyeye | Starlight, no. | 22:08 |
| Starlight | Ok, cool! | 22:08 |
| Seveas | Starlight, depends on the type of virtualization. If you want KVM you need a processor that supports it | 22:08 |
| merlin2049er | ok i wont bother upgrading | 22:08 |

| detuneyourradio | joeyeye: the domain is natnow.rr.com which is my isp, and the two nameservers match the DNS servers listed on my router config page. i'm not sure what to expect though i've never used that command before. my networking knowledge is just basic. | 22:09 |
| Seveas | the recommended way of doing virtual machinses, if your cpu supports it :) | 22:09 |
| Starlight | Yeah I wont need KVM.. | 22:09 |
| greezmunkey | antivirtel: yes, you will not need much in the way of swap, and /boot doesn't have to be that large, but your /home is where all your data will go, so it should get the lions share. | 22:09 |
| joeyeye | detuneyourradio, do you use DHCP from your router to get ubuntu's IP ? or have you set as static IP ? | 22:10 |
| aboleth | Jordan_U: hey are you there now? | 22:10 |
| merlin2049er | thanks for your help | 22:10 |
| antivirtel | greezmunkey, yeah, but I HAVE TO mount somewhere "/", the /boot and /home isnt that all... so you think /boot as "/"? | 22:10 |
| aboleth | Jordan_U: i'm using irssi on grml now | 22:10 |
| detuneyourradio | joeyeye: i use dhcp. i treid setting a static ip to see if that would make a difference but i got the same problem | 22:10 |
| merlin2049er | I'll do a clean install eventually | 22:10 |
| Jordan_U | aboleth: Yes. | 22:10 |
| greezmunkey | antivirtel: essentially, yes. | 22:10 |
| antivirtel | greezmunkey, ok thanks ... my last try | 22:10 |
| antivirtel | tomorrow :D | 22:11 |
| guntbert | Romanaski: 1) please try to keep your question on one line - 2) use !pastebin for showing us longer files/outputs... | 22:11 |
| aboleth | Jordan_U: i was busy with other things and i couldn't get x to work right on grml so i just gave up with it and am doing everything in text mode | 22:11 |
| merlin2049er | what the best way to back up desktop and files in ubuntu? | 22:11 |
| detuneyourradio | joeyeye: the weird thing is this occured randomly i didn't make any major changes to my system recently. i've been running ubuntu for like 3 years. | 22:11 |
| phormUlate | hello | 22:11 |
| aboleth | Jordan_U: so what should i do about my drive right now? | 22:11 |
| Seveas | merlin2049er, rsync to another linux machine | 22:11 |
| joeyeye | detuneyourradio, can you ping your router ? | 22:11 |
| detuneyourradio | joeyeye: yes, and i can also log into the router's page via firefox and see all the settings | 22:11 |
| merlin2049er | hmm, i want to back it up to an external hard drive then format and reinstall - recover | 22:11 |
| Rotham_ | whats the easiest way to shrink my ubuntu partition? | 22:12 |
| phormUlate | anyone know where to make changes so I can automount in an ubuntu "startup (usb) disk" with a casper loop.... fstab doesn't stick | 22:12 |
| intrader | Anyone, is AcitionParsnip still around. I don't see a command to find out, sorry | 22:12 |
| phormUlate | use gparted rotham | 22:12 |
| * aboleth | 22:12 | |
| aboleth | sorry i was just testing something there | 22:12 |
| Seveas | merlin2049er, that works as well, as long as the external drive has a linux filesystem like ext3 | 22:12 |
| aboleth | i'm trying to get used to thsi client | 22:12 |
| phormUlate | no worries | 22:12 |
| Rotham | cool thx | 22:12 |
| joeyeye | detuneyourradio, weird. Try to ping www.yahoo.com | 22:12 |
| phormUlate | np | 22:12 |
| merlin2049er | ok | 22:12 |
| detuneyourradio | joeyeye: i get back the response, "unknown host www.yahoo.com" | 22:13 |
| merlin2049er | looks like i got it already installed | 22:13 |
| Jordan_U | aboleth: Do you know for sure which device name (/dev/sdX) is your failing drive and which is your good one? | 22:13 |
| detuneyourradio | joeyeye: does this mean network manager is not communicating with the dns server? | 22:13 |
| merlin2049er | is there a gui with it | 22:13 |
| joeyeye | detuneyourradio, right. So DNS is broken. Check that you have not left DNS as static in your IP config settings | 22:13 |
| Seveas | merlin2049er, neh, but it's easy | 22:13 |
| yeats | detuneyourradio: your router has an IP from your ISP? | 22:14 |
| merlin2049er | i'm scared of command lines | 22:14 |
| merlin2049er | lol | 22:14 |
| detuneyourradio | joeyeye: where can i check my ipconfig settings? | 22:14 |
| Seveas | merlin2049er, hehe | 22:14 |
| aboleth | Jordan_U: i forget how to list drives, but i think i'll know if i do that | 22:14 |
| joeyeye | detuneyourradio, in network-manager | 22:14 |
| phormUlate | damn, does noone know where I can add automounts to a usb ubuntu install? fstab will not persist | 22:14 |
| Seveas | no worries, I'll give you the exact commands once you've plugged it in :) | 22:14 |
| merlin2049er | anyways, ttyl | 22:14 |
| Jordan_U | aboleth: "blkid" | 22:14 |
| merlin2049er | thanks 4 your help | 22:14 |
| yeats | detuneyourradio: if you can connect to your router that means the problem is not Ubuntu | 22:14 |
| aboleth | Jordan_U: it only lists a squashfs volume, which i assume is the livecd. i don't think any of the other drives are mounted right now | 22:15 |
| intrader | Anyone, how do I find out if someone is still listening? | 22:15 |
| phormUlate | talk about their mom | 22:15 |
| yeats | intrader: just ask your question - someone may reply | 22:15 |
| Seveas | intrader, /whois <nickname> will tell you how long a person has been idle | 22:15 |
| Seveas | though phormUlate's suggestion is more fun :) | 22:16 |
| intrader | thanks | 22:16 |
| Jordan_U | aboleth: Odd, they shouldn't normally need to be mounted to be listed in blkid. Try "fdisk -l". | 22:16 |
| detuneyourradio | joeyeye: in network connections i just have one set up and under ipv4 settings everything is set to automatic (DHCP) | 22:16 |
| aboleth | this is off topic but i wish irssi would show if you were on the last line or not | 22:16 |
| phormUlate | i am booting a usb install via cd to usb1... this is hard enough to deal with without automounted swap | 22:16 |
| aboleth | Jordan_U: it gives no output | 22:16 |
| yeats | aboleth: if you're not on the last line, it will show --more-- in the lower right | 22:17 |
| joeyeye | detuneyourradio, delete /etc/resolv.conf and then disconnect/reconnect network | 22:17 |
| greezmunkey | aboleth: just hold down the page down key for a second or two. That will ensure that you are. | 22:17 |
| intrader | Anyone, problem is that I would like to youtube on maverick, but synchronization between voice and video is very poor. On another lesser laptop running Windows Vista synchronization is perfect | 22:17 |

| detuneyourradio | joeyeye: ok did that but still not working. when i did cat/etc/resolv.conf after delting it not just lists one nameserver and that's it | 22:18 |
| sl33k_ | i am getting this error while installing --> could not get lock /s/s / | 22:18 |
| sl33k_ | what is the issue? | 22:18 |
| joeyeye | detuneyourradio, and is the nameserver the ip address of your router ? | 22:19 |

| Xplat_ | Does anyone know of a dead website cache program? | 22:20 |
| Jordan_U | Romanaski: You need to boot from an OS on another partition, and ideally one on another drive (like a liveCD/USB). | 22:20 |
| POVaddct | Romanaski: is this a normal system? or maybe a virtual server? | 22:20 |
| detuneyourradio | joeyeye: no it's not. it's the same IP as the what the router lists as the outside DNS servers on the router config page | 22:20 |

| MagicJ | how can I stop all the users showing on the "sign on menu". Some don't anyway, how is this controlled | 22:21 |

| joeyeye | detuneyourradio, the issue is with the DNS set up | 22:23 |
| Jordan_U | intrader: Have you tried using html5? http://youtube.com/html5 | 22:23 |

| sudilav | hey all, needing help loading up ubuntu onto my netbook | 22:23 |
| intrader | Jordan_U, better on chrome | 22:24 |
| joeyeye | detuneyourradio, on your router you *should* just let your ISP set the dns servers during DHCP, do you have them hard coded to specific ones in the router ? | 22:24 |
| phormUlate | persistent init scripts in ubuntu usb casper loops via syslinux?? | 22:24 |
| detuneyourradio | joeyeye: no i don't have them hardcoded in the router. i've also done the dhcp release/renew several times but no go. | 22:24 |
| detuneyourradio | greezmunkey: tried that and now firefox takes several seconds to timeout instead of immediately timing out. | 22:25 |
| CooKieMonster | what the advantage of latets ubuntu version compare to 804 | 22:25 |

| sudilav | and tried 10.04 versions | 22:28 |

| joeyeye | detuneyourradio, oh well no need to solve that | 22:28 |
| dijonyummy | probably due to having a /media/diskstation mount at home, but not elsewhere, but how to prevent it from hanging when inside the /media directory? | 22:28 |

| netsurf3 | I can uninstall and reinstall but that presents problems with it wanting to remove a good portion of the OS | 22:30 |
| Seveas | netsurf3, rm -rf ~/.pulse and relogin | 22:30 |
| Rotham | au revoir! | 22:30 |
| Seveas | sl33k_, yes | 22:30 |
| Jordan_U | netsurf3: Seveas: I'd recommend "mv ~/.pulse ~/.pulse-bak" instead of rm. | 22:30 |
| sudilav | what architecture should i use for intel celeron btw? | 22:30 |
| greezmunkey | detuneyourradio: type sudo iptables -L in a terminal, if you have more than about 9 lines of output you have a firewall running. See what you get. | 22:30 |

| sudilav | still doesn't explain why it aint working then... it was working with ubuntu before, but then i fucked up the partitions, partition table seems to have vanished and had to reload in knoppix (which is a pain in the ass). is there any known issues with an advent verona or something? | 22:32 |

| David664 | Creating persistence file 100% complete X Cancel | 22:43 |
| David664 | it doesnt give me an okay option | 22:43 |
| leeping | greezmunkey, I already added it to the bashrc. :) I agree that it's a strange problem, but every system I've upgraded to lucid has had this happen. I don't think it was in Jaunty. | 22:43 |

| LoganJRuff | Donkeyy, please direct your questions to the entire room so that we can all assist you. | 22:44 |
| Donkeyy | LOgan I have done so | 22:44 |
| Zenger | Donkeyy: the rule is : Type your problem and wait. Someone might know the answer. If i or somebody else doesn't answer maybe they haven't noticed yet or don't know your problem | 22:45 |
| Donkeyy | LoganJRuff: but I will do it for the third time | 22:45 |
| LoganJRuff | Donkeyy, when you direct your questions to someone, the rest of us think that person is helping you and we ignore it. Furthermore, if no one knows any solution to your situation, no one will respond. Please have patience. | 22:45 |

| LoganJRuff | Thank you Donkeyy | 22:45 |
| Donkeyy | Ubuntu asked me to update the ATI driver | 22:45 |
| Donkeyy | and it wont start | 22:45 |
| Donkeyy | after Installed it | 22:46 |
| LoganJRuff | What won't start? | 22:46 |

| Donkeyy | LoganJRuff: ubuntu | 22:46 |

| greezmunkey | Is /proc located in a differant place on server than it is on desktop? It should be /var/proc right? | 22:47 |
| Donkeyy | yes LoganJRuff | 22:47 |
| k23 | n0wje: I told you :) | 22:47 |
| sl33k_ | where can i get a short and comprehensible cheat sheet for ubuntu keyboard shortcuts? | 22:48 |
| LoganJRuff | greezmunkey, it can also be /proc | 22:48 |
| ActionParsnip | !shortcut | 22:48 |
| ubottu | Keyboard shortcuts can be set in System -> Preferences -> Keyboard Shortcuts. If your multimedia keys don't work with that, try the 'keytouch' package, explained at http://keytouch.sourceforge.net - See !Keyboard for changing layouts | 22:48 |

| k23 | n0wje: a screenshot | 22:49 |
| POVaddct | greezmunkey: proc filesystem should always be mounted on /proc. many system tools rely on that. | 22:49 |
| greezmunkey | LoganJRuff: I feel like an idiot, thanks! | 22:49 |
| n0wje | ah ok | 22:49 |

| nucc33 | 1.3.0? | 22:54 |

| salami | ah, had my power settings set to only show the notification when charging or discharging =) | 23:03 |
| gogeta | Jordan_U, its a feature in xandros where you inserd a sd card and expand the total fs size | 23:03 |

| virhilo | network card working | 23:07 |
| ActionParsnip | sl33k_: try a few, see which you like | 23:07 |
| Jordan_U | gogeta: Try setting the filesystem label on the partition you want to use to "casper-rw". You might need to boot with the SD card in for it to work. | 23:07 |
| intrader | ActionParsnip, you are back. I have reinstalled, without improvement in sound/video synch | 23:08 |
| ActionParsnip | yeastwars: if you run: sudo lshw -C network you can use the product line to find guides | 23:08 |
| gogeta | Jordan_U, think you got thw wrong idea inserting sd expands fs on a installed systemn not live cd | 23:08 |
| sl33k_ | which is the shorcut button to navigate through the top bar (not alt + f1) | 23:08 |
| ActionParsnip | intrader: not sure then dude | 23:08 |
| sl33k_ | for sound, bluetooth, those navigating | 23:09 |
| Jordan_U | gogeta: Then you'll need to explain more clearly what you're trying to accomplish. | 23:09 |
| gogeta | Jordan_U, its a obscure feature trust me if there was any doc n it i woulkd have fund it | 23:09 |
| gogeta | Jordan_U, later netbooks did it at the hardware level | 23:10 |
| intrader | ActionParsnip, something is slower, XORG, OS, flash, I don't know either, but I am watching a youtube on Go, and on T61p Maverick it is terrible. But on R61p on Windows Vista, it is perfect! | 23:10 |
| gogeta | Jordan_U, its as i said it when you insert sd card it expands your whole fs not just showing it as sepret media | 23:11 |

| ActionParsnip | vic20gmr: the usb-creator will allow you to make the bootable usb device | 23:15 |
| Jordan_U | vic20gmr: We don't support 8.10. If you tell us why you think you need 8.10 we may be able to help you get a supported release doing what you want. | 23:15 |
| vic20gmr | no longer supported doesnt answer myy question | 23:15 |

| Gnea | unitedpotsmokers: with wine | 23:30 |
| Jordan_U | greezmunkey: Likely the only way to get better speed would be to go back to VGA text mode (low resolution) or, if available, install kernel mode setting drivers for your graphics card. | 23:30 |
| coz_ | unitedpotsmokers, well did you download any adobe air applications? | 23:31 |
| xiamx | hello everyone, i accidently broke my kernel | 23:31 |

| ActionParsnip | intrader:sure, gimme a sec | 23:31 |

| intrader | ActionParsnip, my t61p is now tracking this conversation. but the old thread contents are not there. | 23:31 |
| Jordan_U | xiamx: How did you "break" the kernel and what happens when you try to boot? | 23:31 |
| xiamx | followed this guide http://news.softpedia.com/news/How-to-Fix-the-Big-and-Ugly-Plymouth-Logo-in-Ubuntu-10-04-140810.shtml | 23:32 |

| Skapare | well, I found where the problem with the wrong default background image really came from ... now I need to figure out how to make a script to modify one value in the file named /var/lib/gconf/debian.defaults/%gconf-tree.xml | 23:32 |
| unitedpotsmokers | Gnea, when i click on it, i need to choose an installer package... | 23:32 |
| coz_ | unitedpotsmokers, you dont need wine with these as far as I know...I never used wine when testing them | 23:32 |
| Skapare | and I bet they don't provide an XML tool for scripts to do that | 23:32 |
| xiamx | i chrooted with livecd, changed every settings back, but i cant run grub-update within chroot nor update-initramfs -u | 23:32 |
| greezmunkey | Jordan_U: That's kind of what I thought, it's probably too much trouble for what it worth, and I'd rather have the screen real-estate. I can live with it this way. Thanks! | 23:32 |
| ahs4n | i am getting this during boot up --> error: no such device: ...... | 23:32 |

| ActionParsnip | xiamx: then you changed your hostname in /etc/hostname but not in /etc/hosts so you will need to use root recovery mode to get ustuck | 23:34 |
| xiamx | Gnea, the problem is that my initramfs is broken | 23:35 |
| Gnea | unitedpotsmokers: don't worry about it until you download an AIR app | 23:35 |
| Jordan_U | ahs4n: Is this after a fresh install of Ubuntu? | 23:35 |
| ahs4n | ya | 23:35 |
| Gnea | xiamx: that shouldn't matter, just make sure it's using "quiet splash" only | 23:35 |
| xiamx | ActionParsnip, how do i get to root recovery mode | 23:35 |
| ActionParsnip | ahs4n: http://ohioloco.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1499540 | 23:36 |
| ActionParsnip | xiamx: hold shift at boot, select recovery mode, select root | 23:36 |
| Gnea | xiamx: you can still fix it by making it look like this: "quiet splash single" | 23:36 |
| xiamx | Gnea, ill try that | 23:37 |
| xiamx | Gnea, just to make it clear, i edit that line on my grub menu? | 23:37 |
