[00:01] <gl1d3r> Does anyone know how to get a password protected wifi connection working on an ubuntu server?
[00:01] <shcherbak> radi: uhh, well... skipped few line,  i guess

[00:01] <radi> :)
[00:01] <gabri> shcherbak yes, some users, that run mirc, can't read me correctly
[00:01] <lyrae> i have a netbook wired to a router in another room. How can i, from this desktop, find the ip of the netbook so i can ssh into it?
[00:02] <radi> oh well, at least edje compiled now
[00:03] <share> hm
[00:03] <heebie> lyrae: You can do an nmap of the entire network and see what IP's have active SSH ports, then try each one.
[00:03] <vinooo> can you guys help me? my disable touchpad key doesnt work. dmesg: Use 'setkeycodes e00d <keycode>' but i dont know its keycode and xev doesnt help
[00:03] <radi> anyway, have fun, im off to bed watching Shrek :D
[00:03] <Ginbun2> my laptop can't seem my samba share on my desktop pc
[00:03] <lyrae> heebie, will it find the netbook if it's not but i haven't logged in yet?
[00:04] <Gustavo_> can someone help me please I need the bcm4312.deb or at least a place where to get it I had tried every other way put I can`t get internet on my netbook
[00:04] <heebie> vinooo: Sounds like you don't have the keyboard type set right.
[00:04] <linuxpusher> Hmmmmm chow
[00:04] <heebie> lyrae: If it's connected to the network & running an SSHD, it shoudl.
[00:04] <vinooo> heebie, it's strange because the Touchpad on/off notification appears
[00:04] <lyrae> heebie, thanks (it should be because I can putty it from windows)
[00:05] <heebie> If you know the IP to get to it via putty on Windows.. you should be able to get to it form Linux as well.
[00:05] <shcherbak> gabri: rather terminal setting, but not sure
[00:06] <gabri> shcherbak,  okk thx
[00:06] <Uggie> I'm trying to fix my sound. The thread in ubuntu forums re: doing that suggests to completely remove the alsa drivers then reinstall them. For some that means it takes the Gnome Desktop with it, and it has to be reinstalled. My question is: Will this take things such as my evolution email with it? How much will I have to restore from backups?
[00:07] <heebie> Uggie: Your mail should be fine.. the configuration of your mail, and your mail itself, is likely held in your home directory.
[00:07] <heebie> Uggie: But.. if you back up your home directory, and /varf/spool/mail that should take care of it.
[00:08] <The_Paco> I've chown and chgrp a bunch of mp3s and a directory I want to move them to to my name and my group, but can't move them to the directory without sudo. Why?
[00:08] <Ddorda_dok> hey guys. i have updated my system and since than i cant load linux kernel. i get black screen after grub loads. ideas what can i do?
[00:08] <edbian> The_Paco, What are the permissions on the destination folder?
[00:09] <heebie> Paco: You can't move things if they aren't owned by you.. you have to become the super-user.  Once you change the ownership to your own account & group, you should be able to move them.
[00:09] <heebie> Ddorda_dok: Did you install nVidia video drivers perchance?
[00:09] <Uggie> heebie: Thx. I really didn't want to hear that, but I did need to know. . .:-/
[00:10] <heebie> Hi. i've just installed 10.10, and for some reason..after updating to the nVidia drivers from nVidia.. the system won't boot anymore.  I haven't found any fixes online other than switching back to the "nv" driver (which uses xorg's nvidia driver that doesn't support 3d or acceleration) instead… and on top of that the system just won't boot.  Has anyone else run across this?
[00:10] <Ddorda_dok> heebie: not at all. i don't even have an nVidia card
[00:10] <jellow> I need help setting up iptables i want to forward wlan0 ( Laptop wireless card ) to my PC over the eth0 interface , This is my iptables script http://pastebin.ca/2000429
[00:10] <Palestine> i need help with back track distro, where i can find the bt helpers?
[00:10] <The_Paco> edbian, also owned by me and in my group, also can't move it
[00:10] <bonhoffer> i can't update my 7.04
[00:10] <jellow> Palestine: remote-exploit i think
[00:11] <The_Paco> heebie, per ls -l they're under my username and group, should be mine, and I have rwx
[00:11] <Palestine> ok athank u i will try jellow
[00:11] <heebie> jellow: Do you have IP forwarding turned on?
[00:11] <edbian> The_Paco, Can you pastebin ls -l on the files and ls -l on the dest folder?
[00:11] <heebie> Paco: then check the perms on the destination folder like someone else said.
[00:11] <jellow> Palestine: it's not the help channel any more look at topic
[00:11] <bonhoffer> current dist not found in meta-release file
[00:11] <bonhoffer> any thoughts?
[00:11] <jellow> heebie: no let me try that
[00:12] <Jordan_U> !EOL | bonhoffer
[00:12] <The_Paco> min
[00:12] <bonhoffer> Jordan_U: i know
[00:12] <bonhoffer> i added the EOL repos
[00:12] <bonhoffer> my question is how to get past the step they recommend -- and get the current dist not found in the meta-release file
[00:13] <jellow> heebie: ye it was enabled just double checked
[00:14] <heebie> jellow: you checked in proc  (I don't remember the exact path)
[00:14] <jellow> heebie: cat /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward returns 1
[00:14] <jellow> had to look it up
[00:14] <heebie> That's that one.
[00:14] <Jordan_U> bonhoffer: Could you pastebin your /etc/apt/sources.list and the output of "sudo apt-get update"?
[00:14] <bonhoffer> Jordan_U: sure
[00:15] <heebie> jellow: It looks like you've got a forward in one direction, but not in the other for the return traffic.
[00:16] <jellow> heebie: i thought output was by default to accept so did not need it
[00:16] <Palestine> jellow its seems no one alaive in #remote-exploit u don't know how ?
[00:17] <The_Paco> edbian, http://paste.ubuntu.com/535710/
[00:17] <heebie> You're forwarding everything that comes in on one interface to the other, but what gets the replies to those packets, and inbound packets, to go back out the wlan0?
[00:17] <jellow> Palestine: it's says int there topic please go to backtrack-linux
[00:17] <bonhoffer> Jordan_U: http://www.pastie.org/1321590
[00:18] <Jordan_U> bonhoffer: Could you also pastebin the contents of /var/lib/update-manager/meta-release ?
[00:18] <edbian> The_Paco, The only way that shouldn't be working is if you're not logged in as john
[00:18] <The_Paco> I think I know what's going on. This is the base directory of a partition owned by root
[00:19] <bonhoffer> http://www.pastie.org/1321592
[00:19] <heebie> Paco: If it's a mount, you can change the ownership, or the perms.
[00:19] <jellow> heebie: so i just add another line and inverse the in-interace and the -out-interface?
[00:19] <bonhoffer> ^ ^ Jordan_U
[00:20] <heebie> jellow: Probablyi more complicated than that.. if all packets coming in to eth0 go out to wlan0 as well.. then no "native" traffic to that machine will flow.
[00:21] <magicianlord> Why is the OpenOffice window corrupted if many other windows/programs are opened simultaneously?
[00:21] <heebie> jellow: You might want to look up how to create a bridging firewall.. there are pre-made methods out there that should work.. then you make firewall rules that allow or disallow traffic as necessary to protect the inside from the outside.
[00:22] <magicianlord> Does Ubuntu 10 work with Virgin Mobile mobile broadband?
[00:22] <jellow> heebie: I've tried a few scripts that were floating around on various forums have had little success
[00:22] <Jordan_U> bonhoffer: That has sources.lst has repositories for "gutsy", but you said you're upgrading from 7.04, "feisty".
[00:22] <swim> hey, i got a caution sign in my system notification box and when i clicked on it it takes me to update manager which is now downloading linux kernel..  does anybody know what is up with that??
[00:22] <CharlieSu> I've installed 10.04 on a Dell inspiron 410 but it didn't find my built-in ethernet card.. what is the best way to troubleshoot this?  I don't see any interface when i look at 'dmesg' output
[00:23] <magicianlord> CharlieSu: is this is a broadcom card?
[00:23] <bonhoffer> Jordan_U: i thought i needed to do that to upgrade to gutsy
[00:23] <bonhoffer> per the guide
[00:23] <heebie> charlieSu: Do you have a dual-boot with Windows set up?  If you use it in Windows.. then reboot into linux WITHOUT shutting it down.. it might work.
[00:24] <swim> hey, does anybody know why my update manager is needing to download kernel 2.6.35-23???
[00:25] <swim> i've got 10.10 and have been updating often
[00:25] <magicianlord> swim: why not?
[00:25] <swim> is that common??? magicianlord
[00:25] <magicianlord> swim: kernel upgrades are common. it's ok.
[00:26] <Jef91> Is there a terminal command that will output the chipset of my motherboard?
[00:26] <swim> it came about after a red caution sign in my notification area
[00:26] <kuvutu> lshw
[00:26] <Jordan_U> bonhoffer: That's only for "Some users have reported that they still have to download packages from archives.ubuntu.com while everything resides on old-releases". And I don't understand the reasoning even then.
[00:26] <Verminator> swim: yes its normal and common to get kernel updates, its like updateing the core of the OS along w/ drivers
[00:26] <magicianlord> ok
[00:26] <fujiewen> こんいちは
[00:26] <fujiewen> よ
[00:26] <magicianlord> what did the caution sign say?
[00:26] <swim> okay, thanks guys
[00:26] <Jordan_U> bonhoffer: Change your sources.lst back and try the upgrade again.
[00:26] <magicianlord> i always upgrade to hte latest kernel
[00:26] <bonhoffer> Jordan_U: thanks -- i'll look into it
[00:26] <acc_> Hi #Ubuntu.  Recently, I was attempting to remotely upgrade an old Ubuntu box up to Maverick.  I got as far as Karmic (it was on Intrepid), and during the do-release-upgrade phase, I was kicked off ssh and unable to connect to port 9004, so I had the owner reboot the box.  It would fail to boot past "waiting for xx filesystem," so I had to pay them a visit.  Not having any other options available and being in a hurry, I booted Knoppix and ran "dpkg --co
[00:26] <Jordan_U> bonhoffer: You're welcome.
[00:27] <fujiewen> あなた何ゐしていますか。
[00:27] <Jordan_U> !jp | fujiewen
[00:27] <fujiewen> 。。。
[00:27] <jellow> Jef91: you don't need to use multiple channels you get the same answer in both , just twice as much work as everyone else
[00:27] <jrenner> hey guys I have a question about running ubuntu in a VM I want to create an account on windows that all it does is fire up a virtualbox running ubuntu preferably with as little windows crud running in the background as possible. anybody know how?
[00:28] <swim> it said that update information is outdated and that this may be because of a network problem or a repository that is no longer available, among a lot of other things
[00:28] <fujiewen> ubottu, what are you doing?
[00:28] <ramrebol> my brasero chash. I have the same problem: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/brasero/+bug/675158    How can I fix this?
[00:28] <Jordan_U> jrenner: The windows side of that is a question for ##windows. If you only want to use Ubuntu, then why bother with windows and virtualbox at all?
[00:28] <tensorpudding> jrenner: that sounds like a windows question
[00:29] <heebie> Hi. i've just installed 10.10, and for some reason..after updating to the nVidia drivers from nVidia.. the system won't boot anymore.  I haven't found any fixes online other than switching back to the "nv" driver (which uses xorg's nvidia driver that doesn't support 3d or acceleration) instead… and on top of that the system just won't boot.  Has anyone else run across this?
[00:29] <magicianlord> Does it matter if you put noatime in ext2 boot partition to fstab? also, does nodiratime add speed ni additino to noatime?
[00:29] <tensorpudding> you can have virtualbox start at boot, fullscreened, if you want, but that won't change the way windows logs in
[00:29] <jrenner> Jordan_U: actually I just got tired of ubuntu breaking everytime I upgraded (i need to run both windows and ubuntu)
[00:29] <magicianlord> heebie: did you blacklist nouveau?
[00:29] <gregL> ! disk backup
[00:29] <heebie> blacklist nouveau?
[00:29] <magicianlord> heebie: ok. easy fix, i think...
[00:30] <chaos92> i just installed ubuntu, webcam does not work im new to this please help me
[00:30] <gregL> ! backup
[00:30] <CharlieSu> magicianlord: i don't know if it is broadcom or not.. how cna i tell?
[00:30] <ki__> Hi. Looking for a ventrilo client. Mangle doesn't seem to want to connect to my friends vent server
[00:30] <heebie> nouveau?  blacklisting it?  I don't know what you mean.
[00:31] <Blanet> Could someone explain to me how to open up a text file using a simple c code?
[00:31] <fujiewen> あなたは何をしていますか。
[00:31] <acc_> Okay no responses, so I'm taking my question to ubuntu-users. ;-)
[00:31] <magicianlord> heebie: when the system is starting up, hold shift until you see 'grub loading' and continue to hold it, until it shows you the two kernel lines to select. the second line will end in 'recovery'. select that one, and then a window will come up after a while, where you should select 'drop to root prompt'. from the root prompt, type 'tell init 3'. no quotes.
[00:31] <jellow> Blanet: ask in #C be warned you will get flamed
[00:31] <jisiko> hi guys
[00:32] <[thor]> fujiewen: this channel is english support only, please to go #jp-ubuntu for help in japanese.
[00:32] <jisiko> how do i get my mic to work
[00:32] <jellow> Blanet: ##C
[00:32] <jisiko> my mic wont work
[00:32] <heebie> magicianlord: Then what?
[00:32] <jisiko> its driving me nuts
[00:32] <chaos92> I just installed ubuntu, webcam does not work im new to this please help me
[00:32] <magicianlord> heebie: then, you should log into your username, and then type 'sudo nano /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf,' when the file opens, at the bottome of it, add the line 'blacklist nouveau'. then hit ctrl+o to save, and then ctrl+x to exit. reboot and try it
[00:32] <Blanet> Jellow: Why will i be flamed?
[00:32] <[thor]> fujiewen: please excuse my mistake, the correct channel is #ubunt-jp
[00:32] <[thor]> :S
[00:33] <[thor]> i give up
[00:33] <Verminator> Blanet: probably b/c a simple google search will turn up lots of answers
[00:33] <jellow> Blanet: because you have not researched
[00:33] <tensorpudding> Blanet: that's not an #ubuntu question, ask in ##c
[00:33] <tensorpudding> or possibly read the API docs for stdlib
[00:33] <heebie> magicianlord: What is nouveau?
[00:34] <magicianlord> CharlieSu: broadcom chips are problematic, and chances are that is what your have not working. you have to compile it or google it, and hten search synaptic package manager for a precompile ubuntu pkg. as long as you know your chipset, you should be able to get it to work
[00:34] <tensorpudding> rather, stdio
[00:34] <chaos92> I just installed ubuntu, webcam does not work im new to this please help me
[00:34] <tensorpudding> which can open files for reading, and all that jazz
[00:34] <magicianlord> heebie: it's the opensource nvidia driver that is installed by default. however, it conflicts with nvidia's driver if you instal their drivers by yourself, and blacklisting it allows nvidia drivers to boot normally
[00:35] <heebie> Oh. OK.
[00:35] <magicianlord> i also have an nvidia chipset and this procedure works properly for me
[00:35] <Ginbun2> !torrent
[00:35] <Jordan_U> heebie: You shouldn't use the drivers from nvidia's website, you should use System > Administration > Hardware Drivers.
[00:36] <magicianlord> i usually blacklist it before installing nvidia, but that shouldnt matter much
[00:36] <chaos92> ok, if i don't gets my webcam to work i will switch back to windows
[00:36] <heebie> Jordan: That's what I used.. but they messed things up. I'll try what magicianlord said & see if that works.
[00:36] <magicianlord> Jordan_U is correct that its better to intsall the drivers from within ubuntu, but doing it without that should work ok also, as long as you do what i described. and you'll have more recent drivers
[00:37] <magicianlord> heebie: it should work.
[00:37] <heebie> Thanks magicianlord :)  I'll give it a go.. and come back screaming if it doesn't work! ;)
[00:37] <fujiewen> 私はりんごを持っています。
[00:38] <magicianlord> haha
[00:38] <Scunizi> heebie: magicianlord check x-swat PPA for repos that make installing the latest driver easier.. once the PPA is listed as part of your repo's then update/upgrade reboot and done
[00:38] <magicianlord> i need to reboto
[00:39] <Verminator> chaos92: i can't help with your cam problem as I've never used one, but may I suggest that you try doing a google search on your particular cam model and ubuntu
[00:40] <Ginbun2> Al "No Peg if you were in Hell you﻿ be on a throne and the devil be packing"
[00:40] <Ginbun2> lol, epic
[00:40] <chaos92> i tried that before, but nothing really came up
[00:41] <Scunizi> chaos92: load a program called cheese (sudo apt-get install cheese) and see if it recognizes your cam.. google <cam name model and ubuntu> ... look in www.ubuntuforums.org for others with the same cam and the solutions they have.
[00:41] <john> hello
[00:41] <Verminator> chaos92: try maybe the ubuntu forum or at least post here w/ some more information like make of cam, version of ubuntu, computer model and more descriptive info about what is wrong
[00:42] <john> hello
[00:42] <chaos92> yeah, i loaded cheese, it didn't recognise the model
[00:42] <HHabib1> hello john ..how can we help ?
[00:42] <mgibson> I've setup a pptp vpn connection from the command line so I can "pon vpn1" and "poff vpn2".  What's the "proper" way to make this run on boot?
[00:42] <john> i need help with grub
[00:42] <john> i want to take the memtest off my grub
[00:42] <HHabib1> Alright. what is your problem exactley ..

[00:43] <HHabib1> are you duel booting ?
[00:44] <john> memtest is the first one, and when i just turn it on it goes straight there. i have to stay and wait to select one
[00:44] <john> yes
[00:44] <john> i'm running ubuntu, xubuntu, and fedora
[00:45] <HHabib1> to remove these entries, we’ll need to edit the file /boot/grub/menu.lst.  You can do this by using Alt+F2 and then typing in the following  command: gksu gedit /boot/grub/menu.lst
[00:45] <HHabib1> did you got your file opened yet ?
[00:45] <john> run in terminal?

[00:48] <john> yes please
[00:48] <HHabib1> john you should get a little dialog box with a textBox in it the second you click on Alt+F2
[00:48] <john> yes
[00:48] <HHabib1> the tittle of the box is Run Application.
[00:48] <HHabib1> did you get that ?
[00:48] <john> but there's an option "run in terminal" do i check it?
[00:48] <Verminator> HHabib1, np not trying to insult or anything, just trying to help
[00:49] <HHabib1> no do not check the run in terminal box
[00:49] <john> understood
[00:49] <HHabib1> inside of that textBox write this : gksu gedit /boot/grub/menu.lst

[00:54] <cbilljones> ubuntunoobz, your using as a dhcp server?
[00:54] <jmills> john: I'm not sure which version of grub you are using.  If you are using grub2, you should check out man page grub-set-default.
[00:54] <HHabib1> alright john try this in the box that shows up after you click ALT F2 : /boot/grub/grub.cfg
[00:55] <jmills> john: you should be able to type man grub-set-default in the terminal to see the man page.
[00:55] <ubuntunoobz> cbilljones dont think so
[00:55] <john> ok
[00:55] <john> how do i find out which grub i'm using
[00:55] <HHabib1> do you see a text file now john ?
[00:55] <john> yes
[00:56] <cbilljones> ubuntunoobz, then im a little confused as to what your doing, could you elaborate on the setup a bit?
[00:56] <HHabib1> good ...look for the memtest entry you want to remove and take off the whole scope of it.
[00:56] <john> doesn't say anything about grub selections
[00:57] <HHabib1> it should show up like this : menuentry "Memory test (memtest86+)" {
[00:57] <HHabib1> 	insmod part_msdos
[00:57] <HHabib1> 	insmod ext2
[00:57] <HHabib1> 	set root='(hd0,msdos1)'
[00:57] <HHabib1> 	search --no-floppy --fs-uuid --set 8506e20a-a56d-4235-9a36-f1fd81882322
[00:57] <HHabib1> 	linux16	/boot/memtest86+.bin
[00:57] <HHabib1> }
[00:57] <ubuntunoobz> just went to create a wirless network, made a name no security and hit ok and made it open to all users
[00:57] <FloodBot4> HHabib1: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
[00:57] <john> nope
[00:57] <CharlieSu> magicianlord: My chipsets are rs880m+sb820M. How can I figure out what network device this is?
[00:57] <HHabib1> it have to be there ...search for the word memtest
[00:57] <cbilljones> ubuntunoobz, so ip adresses are assinged from the ubuntu server?
[00:58] <jim_dandy> Hi All! I am looking to do a headless install. I have already customized a livecd, so thats no problem, but I need to install ubuntu server, not desktop. What is the easiest way to move from installed package set A to B?
[00:58] <cbilljones> ubuntunoobz, and is it the server itself you cant log into after reboot?
[00:58] <HHabib1> john : in gedit you can search for words ..look for memtest
[00:58] <ubuntunoobz> i guess, my dad said that on windows we had a fluctuating ip address
[00:58] <share_> lol
[00:58] <magicianlord> CharlieSu: ati chipsets
[00:59] <cbilljones> ubuntunoobz, do you have a wireless router?
[00:59] <shar3> is there a ppa for metacity
[00:59] <ubuntunoobz> yeah if u reboot the server, and try to connect to it with my laptop (also ubuntu 10.10) and it just wont connect
[00:59] <CharlieSu> magicianlord: What does that mean for me? is there a special option during the install for that chipset?
[00:59] <ubuntunoobz> no im using the onboard wireless card to route it on the server
[00:59] <jim_dandy> Is there a way to quickly trim ubuntu-desktop down to ubuntu-server?
[01:00] <john> i'm geditting nowhere
[01:00] <john> i don't see anything you're seeing
[01:00] <cbilljones> ubuntunoobz, sounds to me like your using as a dhcp server for your wireless; im not an expert there, let me see if the service maybe needs to be added to startip
[01:00] <magicianlord> CharlieSu: not during the install. you may need to search for either chipset and ubuntu on google, and a solutino should turn up. it may be just a matter of knowing what package to install from terminal
[01:00] <magicianlord> either chipset name you listed
[01:00] <HHabib1> Did you click ALT + F2 and then wrote this command : /boot/grub/grub.cfg in the text Box and clicked run ?
[01:00] <john> there is a command to run in terminal for the options to pop up. do you know it
[01:01] <conundrum> hello, can somebody help me configure my wireless card on my ubuntu server? had a friend install it on an old HD and networking has not been configured
[01:01] <HHabib1> do not check the run in terminal box ..we do not want it to run in terminal.
[01:01] <heebie> Well, I've tried to ban nouveau..and it didn't make any difference in the behaviour on boot.. it still doesn't work. :/  Any other ideas?
[01:01] <john> helloooo. i think i have something here
[01:01] <john> one sec
[01:01] <magicianlord> heebie: what happens exactly
[01:01] <HHabib1> :/
[01:02] <ubuntunoobz> is the built in wireless card a good router?
[01:02] <matt_791> Is is possible to list new apps in the "paid apps" section of ubuntu?
[01:02] <cbilljones> ubuntunoobz, im not sure, it should work fine i think
[01:02] <heebie> magicianlord: On boot, it gets to the "loading ubuntu" type of screen, but it's wrong.. the Ubuntu logo is just text, and the color-changing dots just periods (.).. then it goes to having a flashing underscore cursor in the upper left of the screen and sits there indefinitely.
[01:03] <cbilljones> ubuntunoobz, you have wired coming in and broadcasting wireless out, right?
[01:03] <heebie> magicianlord: I was able to get into recovery mode no problem, and that's where I am now.
[01:03] <mbeierl> Anyone gone with the intel  i7-740QM quad-core processor?  how did ubuntu like it?
[01:03] <john> ok, i see nothing about memtest
[01:03] <john> o
[01:04] <magicianlord> heebie: ok, and then did you properly add blacklist nouveau to the bottom of htat file
[01:04] <john> how do i edit in there
[01:04] <heebie> ubuntunoobz: A wireless card isn't a router.. the computer can ACT as a router and should do a decent job.. but you'd likely want to have multiple NIC's in it.
[01:04] <HHabib1> well something is wrong with your grub mate ...cuz I am on 10.10 ubuntu and it's showing up here at my end
[01:04] <magicianlord> was the file populated with other entries when you opened it?
[01:04] <mbeierl> doesn't memtest need to be added to grub2 now?
[01:04] <john> nope
[01:04] <HHabib1> to edit the entries you just take off the whole scope of the parameter that you do not want.
[01:04] <ubuntunoobz> erm i have a sprint air card that i get internet from via usb then i route it via onboard wireless card
[01:04] <gbear14275> my gparted is crashing...
[01:04] <heebie> magicianlord: cat /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf  | grep nouveau
[01:04] <heebie> blacklist nouveau
[01:04] <john> but delete doesn't work. neither backspace
[01:04] <gbear14275> how do I troubleshoot it?
[01:04] <cbilljones> ubuntunoobz, can you check your startup apps and see if dhcp-server is listed there, system>preferences>startup applications
[01:04] <HHabib1> you have to be sudo ...
[01:04] <HHabib1> root
[01:05] <gbear14275> HHabib1: you talking to me?
[01:05] <heebie> HHabib1: I was root when I made that change.
[01:05] <ubuntunoobz> hang on
[01:05] <john> and how do i do that
[01:05] <HHabib1> no I am talking to John gues :)
[01:05] <heebie> Oh.. HHabib1 WASN'T talking to me.. so please ignore what I siad :)
[01:05] <heebie> said even. :/
[01:05] <HHabib1> lol
[01:05] <HHabib1> alright
[01:06] <ubuntunoobz> no its not there cbilljones
[01:06] <HHabib1> john  you are supposed to be asked for a password the moment you try to open /boot/grub/grub.cfg
[01:06] <john> never did
[01:06] <heebie> magicianlord: I double-checked the name of the module itself, and that is the correct spelling. :/
[01:06] <HHabib1> your on ubuntu 10 right ?
[01:06] <tim167> how can in find directories by size (for example find all subdirs of a certain dir that contain more than 100MB)
[01:07] <john> yep
[01:07] <heebie> tim167:  find . -type d -size +100MB
[01:07] <bastidrazor> john: it is readable by all, but writeable by no one
[01:07] <john> i guess
[01:07] <cbilljones> ubuntunoobz, do you have a file: /etc/default/dhcp3-server?
[01:07] <linguinii> Every time I want to use skype after restarting my computer, to get my microphone to work, I have to go to System > Preferences > Sound > Hardware , select my Internal Audio (the other choice being my web cam), select input, and change a value.  Is there some way to make this change permanent?
[01:07] <john> far top it says read only
[01:08] <heebie> linguinii: Are you saving your ALSA settings at any point?
[01:08] <tim167> heebie: thanks i'll try that :)
[01:08] <HHabib1> john please check out this : http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1195275
[01:08] <linguinii> heebie, Not that I know of.  skype says "pulseaudio"...
[01:08] <ubuntunoobz> nope i do not
[01:08] <conundrum> how can i install a package (network manager) without networking, transferred from a mounted device?
[01:08] <ectospasm> conundrum: .deb + dpkg
[01:08] <pierreth> hello, i am unable to install ubuntu 10.10
[01:08] <heebie> conundrum: Add the media on the device to your repository and it shoudl find it there.
[01:09] <cbilljones> ubuntunoobz, hmm ive never actually done this, i think we need someone who knows more about this
[01:09] <pierreth> the installation is not progessing
[01:09] <ubuntunoobz> kk i g2g anyways
[01:09] <linguinii> heebie, In skype, my microphone is "PulseAudio server (local)"
[01:09] <ectospasm> pierreth: at what point is it not progressing?
[01:09] <jasono> Hello. Can someone please help me?
[01:09] <spivwaq> Hi everyone, don't know if this is enough to help: the wireless icon has disappeared from my panel and I can no longer connect... what can I do?
[01:09] <ProtiK> aeon-ltd: You still here?
[01:09] <ectospasm> !ask | jasono
[01:09] <ubuntunoobz> it works now im connected to it now
[01:09] <heebie> linguinii: If you are setting mixer settings etc.. you should save your ALSA settings at some point.. although I'm not sure how.  ALSA settings wouldn't be in skype..the would be in the mixer, or on the command-line.
[01:09] <cbilljones> ubuntunoobz, alright, sorry i couldnt help, try again later
[01:09] <HHabib1> pierreth are you installing from a cd or upgrading ?
[01:09] <pierreth> ectospasm, at the point for formatting the drive
[01:10] <pierreth> HHabib1, from a cd
[01:10] <jasono> This is the problem. http://paste.ubuntu.com/535728/ It's also keeping me from installing software in the software center.
[01:10] <HHabib1> burn another and try again ...
[01:10] <linguinii> heebie, Are ALSA and pulse audio mutually exclusive?  Or am I getting mixed up with something else (OSS or something?).
[01:10] <heebie> spivwaq: Make sure that you've got the correct module for your wifi set to load somewhere in /etc/modprobe.d for starters? (I'm not sure how to tell which would be the right one.)
[01:10] <pierreth> but the computer is not crash
[01:10] <magicianlord> heebie: wher are we nwo
[01:10] <magicianlord> now
[01:10] <HHabib1> I know ..but the cd might be scratched ...happens all the time.
[01:10] <heebie> linguinii: ALSA are the mixer settings.. Pulseaudio is just an output driver.  Two separate pieces that work towards the send end result.
[01:10] <tim167> heebie: hmmm find -type d -size +20M doesnt return anything, though i'm sure there are directories larger than 20 MB
[01:11] <pierreth> it is like that for 3 hours are so
[01:11] <cbilljones> linguinii, pulse uses alsa, oss and alsa are mutually exclusive
[01:11] <HHabib1> check it again with a new cd and if it did not work we will find something out ...
[01:11] <pierreth> should I wait more?
[01:11] <HHabib1> take the cd out restart and then put a new cd
[01:11] <HHabib1> no do not wait
[01:11] <jasono> Help
[01:11] <heebie> magicianlord I don't know what else to try right now.. machine gets to a flashing underscore cursor and sits there.
[01:11] <jasono> http://paste.ubuntu.com/535728/
[01:11] <HHabib1> restart or turn off the computer and burn a new cd then try again
[01:11] <linguinii> cbilljones, Ah, thanks.  I was mixed up.  Hmm.  So I need to set some alsa mixer settings...
[01:11] <HHabib1> with the new cd
[01:11] <pierreth> ok, thank you
[01:11] <sbeck> tim167, where are you looking ?
[01:11] <HHabib1> your welcome.
[01:12] <sbeck> Are the folders you mean beneath your actual position ?
[01:12] <tim167> sbeck: ~
[01:12] <cbilljones> linguinii, what is the issue? i missed your first post i think
[01:12] <ProtiK> aeon-ltd: If you are, I tried the desktop thing, didn't work. I tried again on another netbook, so I figured it must be something to do with the flash drive. I tried flash drive and I still have the same issue with both operating systems and on both netbooks.
[01:12] <linguinii> heebie, Oh, I think I misread; I am not setting mixer settings.
[01:12] <heebie> tim167: Check the man page for find.. it should tell you if -size is relevant to directories.. it might only apply to files.
[01:12] <tim167> heebie: yes, looks like it
[01:12] <jasono> Can someone please help me?
[01:12] <magicianlord> heebie: did you enter the blacklist.conf file properly? was there existing text in there
[01:12] <heebie> linguinii: You described changing mixer settings for your microphone etc.. I assumed you meant in ALSAmixer.
[01:12] <jasono> heebie help?
[01:13] <tim167> os there another way to find directories by their size ?
[01:13] <tim167> i mean the total size of their contents
[01:13] <heebie> magicianlord: Yes, what I output here was a grep for the file for just that line.. and I double-checked the spelling of the module and it's correct.
[01:13] <linguinii> heebie, I'm changing The "connector" value in the Input tab of "Sound Preferences" [I think]
[01:13] <linguinii> Actually, I'm trying to remember which value it is that is changed; I don't typically do it.  My mom does, and I'm trying to find a way so she doesn't have to every time she uses skype.
[01:13] <heebie> linguinii: I don't know why skype wouldn't save your prefs.  Perhaps you don't have write access to the configuration file?
[01:14] <spivwaq> heebie, it did work for the past three months til about last saturday
[01:14] <spivwaq> my wireless connection i mean
[01:14] <Jordan_U> tim167: That would be a very time consuming task, as the only way to tell the size of a directory is by recursively checking the size of its contentents.
[01:14] <heebie> spivwaq: What worked?
[01:14] <tim167> o remember in windows you could just sort the folders in the filemanager by directory size, but here in ubuntu, for folders it says only how many files it contains (and only one level down)
[01:14] <linguinii> heebie, it is not skype settings; it is System > Preferences > Sound
[01:14] <ectospasm> tim167: du -h
[01:15] <jasono>                Can someone Please help me? I cannot install any software in the ubuntu software center without it telling me it's an "untrusted package"
[01:15] <magicianlord> heebie: did you enter the right file
[01:15] <heebie> linguinii: OK.. so those would be alsa settings.. but it's very strange that it doesn't remember them if you're using a system control panel.
[01:15] <heebie> magicianlord: /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf
[01:15] <tim167> ectospasm: interesting!
[01:15] <magicianlord> heebie: was there other entries in that file when you openede it?
[01:15] <CharlieSu> magicianlord: I've searched w/ APT but am unable to find any ATI packages that have to do w/ anything other than video support..
[01:16] <heebie> magicianlord: Yes, a lot of them.  I put mine at the bottom. (The output that I sent to the channel earlier was grep of the file to only show the specific line that I added.)
[01:16] <linguinii> heebie, And actually she might be changing the device from "0802 Analog Mono" to "Internal Audio Analog Stereo".  I'll ask for sure.
[01:16] <ProtiK> Can anyone help me with a problem I'm having? I'm trying to install Ubuntu onto my netbook (tried both netbook and desktop editions) and I'm hitting a snag. When I get to the screen that says "For the best results, please ensure that this computer yadayadayada" and click forward, the netbook acts like it's loading, but from what I can tell it's not doing anything. The cursor can still be...
[01:16] <ProtiK> ...moved and it's showing the loading icon, so I'm assuming it didn't crash. I've checked the hashes of both ISOs (100%), tried a few flash drives, and even tested on another netbook, but this issue exists throughout all of those conditions. All I want is to install Ubuntu on my netbook, can anyone help me?
[01:16] <john> this is what i was looking for:  grep menuentry /boot/grub/grub.cfg
[01:16] <magicianlord> heebie: didnt see your output. sorry. ok, it looks like hte right file.
[01:16] <magicianlord> heebie: you could also try blacklisting nvidiafb. are you on 10.04 or 1010
[01:16] <john> thanks habib for pointing me in the right direction
[01:16] <heebie> magicianlord: I'm on 10.10
[01:16] <cbilljones> protik, are you connected to the net during install?
[01:17] <ProtiK> I've tried being connected and not being connected, same thing both times
[01:17] <bonhoffer> i have 8.04 and i am trying to upgrade to latest version -- should i go to 8.10 before going higher?
[01:17] <magicianlord> heebie: ok. the process i described had worked for me on an nvidia 6100 chipset motherboard
[01:17] <HHabib1> your welcome john
[01:17] <Blazento> my wireless connection suddenly stopped working 2 months ago after working for 4 months. what should i look for to troubleshoot this/
[01:17] <sbeck> tim167, I sent you something in a qry.
[01:17] <heebie> magicianlord: I don't have an nVidia chipset.. just an nVidia video card.
[01:17] <Sickler> im having trouble with 10.10 and vlc were vlc skips or exits fullscreen if you will and renters fullscreen have it "adjusts" suggestions?
[01:17] <cbilljones> protik, what version? 10.10?
[01:17] <magicianlord> heebie: yes, mine is integrated
[01:18] <ProtiK> cbilljones: Yeah, 10.10 for both editions
[01:18] <Sickler> im having trouble with 10.10 and vlc were vlc skips or exits fullscreen if you will and renters fullscreen after it "adjusts" suggestions?
[01:18] <cbilljones> protik, what model of netbook? ill see if its a known issue
[01:18] <linguinii> heebie, Oops, I was wrong.  She changes the device from "Internal Audio Analog Device" to "0802 Analog Mono"
[01:18] <heebie> magicianlord: I just switched to ubuntu from Gentoo to try it out.. and the same nVidia driver version/revision was working in Gentoo.
[01:19] <ProtiK> cbilljones: I have the problem on an 'Acer Aspire One ZG8' and an 'Eee PC 1000HD'
[01:19] <heebie> linguinii: analog mono? icky poo!  It might change that back because it's a mono driver.
[01:19] <magicianlord> heebie: yeah. that process tends to work.
[01:19] <linguinii> heebie, so is that the "alsa device setting" I am changing?
[01:19] <Sickler> im having trouble with 10.10 and vlc were vlc skips or exits fullscreen if you will and renters fullscreen after it "adjusts" suggestions?
[01:19] <magicianlord> i run arch and ubuntu
[01:20] <sbeck> tim167, are you still there ?
[01:20] <heebie> linguinii: It might not be.
[01:20] <bonhoffer> i am not sure if i should try to go from 8.04 to 9.10
[01:20] <bonhoffer> the guide has 8.10 to 9.10 in there
[01:20] <heebie> bonhoffer: Yes, you should. ;)
[01:20] <cbilljones> protik, you have suffient ram i assume?
[01:20] <bonhoffer> heebie: but i get WARNING: Failed to read mirror file
[01:21] <airtonix> heebie, um? what?
[01:21] <rooks> !twitter
[01:21] <bonhoffer> heebie: you think i should go from 8.04 direct to 9.10?
[01:21] <Sickler> im having trouble with 10.10 and vlc were vlc skips or exits fullscreen if you will and renters fullscreen after it "adjusts" suggestions?
[01:21] <bonhoffer> not stop by 8.04
[01:21] <heebie> bonhoffer: Maybe 9.10 isn't support.. but you could go to 9.04 which is a long-term relase.
[01:21] <heebie> release :/
[01:21] <bonhoffer> so 8.04 to 9.04
[01:21] <cbilljones> 9.04 isnt LTS
[01:21] <rooks> is there a twitter application that uses indicator-applet mailicon?
[01:21] <heebie> bonhoffer: Is there a particular reason for the upgrade?
[01:21] <cbilljones> 8.04>10.04 for LTS
[01:21] <bonhoffer> heebie: yes -- i want to get out of EOL
[01:22] <heebie> bonhoffer: So why are you only going to 9.x?
[01:22] <cbilljones> bonhoffer, i would upgrade to 10.04
[01:22] <heebie> 10.04LTS is out there.
[01:22] <ProtiK> cbilljones: Both have 1GB ram
[01:22] <airtonix> bonhoffer, upgrades (as fickle as they are) are only going to work for you in sequence, you can not skip versions in the upgrade process (and honestly if you'd had the foresight to put /home on a separate partition when you first isntalled ubuntu then you'd be able to do a clean install of a new version without all the intermediate steps while retaining your home data)
[01:22] <bonhoffer> heebie: agreed -- but i shouldn't jump/skip
[01:22] <cbilljones> protik, ok were good there
[01:22] <trism> rooks: gwibber, it should be installed by default, and listed as Broadcast in the indicator message area
[01:22] <heebie> It's easy enough to TAR up your home directory. ;)
[01:22] <bonhoffer> airtonix: agreed -- so the question is what constitutes a version
[01:22] <airtonix> heebie, :(
[01:22] <Verminator> john__, might I suggest you look at http://members.iinet.net/~herman546/p20.html   and   https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Grub2#/boot/grub/grub.cfg    Your change will get over written on the next kernel upgrade
[01:23] <airtonix> bonhoffer, a change in the number ?
[01:23] <bonhoffer> 8.04 to 8.10 to 9.04 to 9.10 . . .
[01:23] <Sickler> im having trouble with 10.10 and vlc were vlc skips or exits fullscreen if you will and renters fullscreen after it "adjusts" suggestions?
[01:23] <rooks> trism, how to make gwibber refresh feeds when closed?
[01:23] <bonhoffer> airtonix: so you can't skip a single number
[01:23] <bonhoffer> 8.04 to 9.04 for exampe?
[01:23] <bonhoffer> example?
[01:23] <edbian> bonhoffer, no
[01:23] <airtonix> bonhoffer, no, but the exception to that rule is that you can go from LTS version to LTS version
[01:23] <heebie> bonhoffer: You should be able go from 8.x-9.x, then 9.x to 10.x
[01:23] <bonhoffer> o.k.
[01:23] <xangua> bonhoffer: or you could just upgrade from 8.04 to 10.04
[01:23] <airtonix> xangua, no you can not.
[01:24] <bonhoffer> xangua: i think airtonix would disagree with you
[01:24] <cbilljones> protik, i dont see any fix at this point, i would maybe try alternate installe
[01:24] <xangua> airtonix: yes........
[01:24] <Verminator> bonhoffer: as a rule of thumb, I think most people recomend not using the upgrade and do a fresh install of the newer version
[01:24] <airtonix> ^
[01:24] <heebie> If youi want, you can go from 8.04 to linux-from-scratch, or any other distro you like, as long as you've got backups of your data and configs.
[01:24] <augdawg> where can i learn how to hack on unity using vala?
[01:24] <bonhoffer> Verminator: agreed -- but this is a server and i don't want to move a bunch of config files
[01:24] <augdawg> (or any other language for that matter)
[01:25]  * heebie is a network & systems engineer and does this kind of thing on servers and VM's all the time.
[01:25] <trism> rooks: you can set the refresh rate in the preferences, and it will continue to run if you select Gwibber/Close Window when you close it, instead of Gwibber/Quit (there will be an arrow next to it in the indicator if it is still running)
[01:25] <bonhoffer> things like my.cnf
[01:25] <Gnea> wasn't 7.04 the previous LTS?
[01:25] <ProtiK> cbilljones: Do you know of any other linux distros that are as user friendly as Ubuntu? I've been using Windows my whole life and the idea of having to compile my own kernel kind of scares me.
[01:25] <airtonix> bonhoffer, personally i'd only do an upgrade if a) i had a gun to my head, or b) it was the only way i could keep my life support machine running
[01:25] <bonhoffer> all the apache files
[01:25] <ProtiK> :P
[01:25] <Verminator> bonhoffer: sorry, missed that part
[01:25] <gbear14275> yeah so my gparted is crashing...
[01:25] <gbear14275> anyway I can figure out why?
[01:25] <airtonix> bonhoffer, like i said before. put things you want to retain on separate partitions next time you do a clean install.
[01:25] <heebie> I think the .04's are pretty much always LTS.  I know 10.04 is, and I know 6.04 and 8.04 have bene.
[01:25] <Jordan_U> bonhoffer: Do *not* upgrade to 8.10. You can, and should, go directory from one LTS release (8.04) to another (10.04).
[01:25] <cbilljones> rprotik, i would stick with ubuntu, but you can get the alternate installer wich usually you use if short on ram, but it may work better for you
[01:26] <edbian> ProtiK, ?  Why do you think you have to compile the kernel?
[01:26] <edbian> ProtiK, (mint btw is very user friendly)
[01:26] <Gnea> !LTS
[01:26] <bonhoffer> Jordan_U: i don't see how i can do that
[01:26] <Jordan_U> heebie: 9.04 isn't.
[01:26] <tensorpudding> it's only the spring release every other year that's LTS
[01:26] <heebie> Jordan_U: really? Weird!
[01:26] <linguinii> heebie, Maybe I'll try getting a different microphone device to work (I think it defaults to the one in the MB rather than the one in the web cam)
[01:26] <Jordan_U> !upgrade | bonhoffer
[01:26] <mingdao> 1412 nicks! wow!
[01:26] <Verminator> gbear14275: try running ti from terminal and see what error msg it spits out
[01:26] <bonhoffer> Jordan_U: i have 8.04 now
[01:26] <cbilljones> protik, i would stick with ubuntu, but you can get the alternate installer wich usually you use if short on ram, but it may work better for you
[01:26] <ProtiK> edbian: My friend said something about having to compile a kernel for some linux distros, I think he said it was gentwo
[01:26] <Gnea> heebie: it's a 3 year cycle for desktops, so with 10.04 being the current LTS, that makes 7.04 the previous LTS
[01:26] <rooks> trism, hey, sweet, thanks!
[01:26] <gbear14275> [01:26] <gbear14275> libparted : 2.3
[01:26] <gbear14275> [01:26] <gbear14275> glibmm-ERROR **:

[01:26] <FloodBot4> gbear14275: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
[01:26] <tensorpudding> ProtiK: in Gentoo, you compile everything yourself
[01:27] <Jordan_U> Gnea: *8.04 and 6.10
[01:27] <edbian> ProtiK, oh yeah.  It's spelled gentoo.  It's one of the few linux distros that have compile the kernel.  Most do not.
[01:27] <tensorpudding> ProtiK: or rather, it is compiled on your machine, you don't have to do anything
[01:27] <cbilljones> gnea and heebie, no 8.04, then 10.04; 7.04 is not LTS
[01:27] <Verminator> Gnea, heebie: that is wrong, 8.04 was the previous LTS
[01:27] <heebie> ProtiK: Gentoo, (maybe gentwo is a variant of it)  you pretty much compile everything.  You get a slightly faster system, but it does take a lot more administration time to keep it up.
[01:27] <bonhoffer> Jordan_U: i am running do-release-upgrade, we will see where this goes
[01:27] <ProtiK> edbian, tensorpudding: Oh alright, thanks :P
[01:27] <edbian> ProtiK, No problem
[01:27] <gbear14275> Verminator: http://pastebin.com/kjKaRGJq
[01:27] <Gnea> !8.04
[01:28] <tensorpudding> the advantage to compiling things yourself is that you can configure the way they're built to an extent
[01:28] <Gnea> and so it was :)
[01:28] <xangua> !lts > Gnea
[01:28] <cbilljones> !7.04
[01:28] <tensorpudding> the disadvantage is that you have to recompile them every time you want to upgrade anything
[01:28] <Gnea> okay, I got it
[01:28] <airtonix> bonhoffer, you might like to get in the habit of keeping /var on a separate partition and then do something about automating the install of your apache, dns, dhcp service configurations with preseeding.
[01:28] <ProtiK> cbilljones: Where can I find this alternate installer?
[01:28] <IVerbNouns> Hi everyone I am having an issue with ubuntu that keeps ejecting my cd tray has anyone heard of this?
[01:28] <cbilljones> protik, http://www.ubuntu.com/desktop/get-ubuntu/alternative-download
[01:29] <heebie> IVerbNouns: Sounds like a strange driver issue. I can't say I've ever heard of it.
[01:29] <ProtiK> cbilljones: Thanks babes :D
[01:29] <mingdao> I have 10.04.1 and wanted grub legacy rather than grub2, so I removed grub2 and installed grub legacy ... what is the proper way to get a menu.lst to edit, or to edit a grub.cfg?
[01:29] <Gnea> Jordan_U: not sure why I thought that a LTS release would occur every 2 years instead of every 3...
[01:29] <Verminator> gbear14275: I dont know what those errors mean, someone here might know, I was just making the suggestion so you could get more info to troubleshoot the problem with
[01:29] <cbilljones> protik, no problem, good luck :)
[01:29]  * heebie is off to see if magician's other idea works.
[01:29] <BLZbubba> upstart is the biggest piece of crap of all time
[01:29] <Jordan_U> mingdao: Why don't you want grub2?
[01:29] <Gnea> Jordan_U: well, 3 instead of 2... blah
[01:30] <IVerbNouns> does anyone know where the drivers for my cd drive are located?
[01:30] <airtonix> IVerbNouns, kernel modules*
[01:30] <mingdao> Jordan_U: have used Linux for 7 years but never grub ... have grub legacy booting it 4 OSes, and when I installed 10.04.1 grub2 messed it all up
[01:30] <airtonix> mingdao, is that the only reason?
[01:30] <mingdao> airtonix: probably so ;)
[01:30] <Jordan_U> mingdao: "messed it all up" how?
[01:31] <Thunderguy> Hey, I'm trying to figure out how after I 'cleaned' my /var/cache/apt/archives, how do I get it to re-download so I can use aptoncd?
[01:31] <mingdao> airtonix: since I know next to nothing about grup anyway
[01:31] <cbilljones> what is the channel for daily build again?
[01:31] <airtonix> mingdao, you really ought to bite the bullet and learn how to use grub2, its alot better thant grub1
[01:31] <mingdao> Jordan_U: it found only one of four OSes and could only boot that and Ubuntu
[01:31] <IVerbNouns> airtonix: anything more specific? I need to begin troubleshooting an issue that causes my cd drive to eject randomly.
[01:31] <mingdao> airtonix: define "a lot better"
[01:31] <cbilljones> !11.04
[01:31] <mingdao> airtonix: it's just a bootloader ... just boot the OS and all's good
[01:32] <edbian> mingdao, If you feel so strongly why did you install grub2 in the first place?
[01:32] <bonhoffer> airtonix: agreed, i like your separate partition idea
[01:32] <airtonix> mingdao, i leave that as an research exercise for you.
[01:32] <bonhoffer> is there a blog on that?
[01:32] <bonhoffer> or howto?
[01:32] <Jordan_U> edbian: It's the default in Ubuntu since 9.10.
[01:32] <CharlieSu> I was having network troubles w/ 10.04 but installed 10.10 and see that my ATI chipset automatically works..  It is using the 'atl1c' module .  Is this available for 10.04 ?
[01:32] <mingdao> edbian: I didn't ... that was installed by default by Ubuntu
[01:32] <airtonix> bonhoffer, not that i;ve seen, and i haven't bothered to document the way i do it
[01:32] <bastidrazor> Thunderguy: use apt-get -d   the -d will download-only and not try to install.. but you will need to provide package names
[01:32] <Sickler> im having trouble with 10.10 and vlc were vlc skips or exits fullscreen if you will and renters fullscreen after it "adjusts" suggestions?
[01:32] <HHabib1> Grub legacy is the best if you ask me . but dude let's be frank ..advancement have to take place.
[01:32] <mingdao> Does anyone know how to answer my question or just argue their choices?
[01:32] <gbear14275> found this...https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gparted/+bug/617885  But still not much able to read bug reports
[01:32] <bonhoffer> airtonix: sounds simple enough -- but i have to change the default paths
[01:32] <PoOKing> I have been failing at opening a port using the ufw. Any ideas?
[01:33] <Thunderguy> bastidrazor: Oh ok, is there any way with bash that I can use 1 command to get the package names and send them over to apt?
[01:33] <airtonix> bonhoffer, not really.
[01:33] <HHabib1> mingdao you want the old grub back is that what you want mate?
[01:33] <edbian> mingdao, What is your question?
[01:33] <bastidrazor> Thunderguy: package names for?
[01:33] <mingdao> HHabib1, edbian: What is the proper way to get a menu.lst to edit, or to edit a grub.cfg with grub-0.97?
[01:33] <airtonix> bonhoffer, you use fstab to say that the directory /var is now located on X drive/partition
[01:33] <Thunderguy> bastidrazor: for everything installed, say if I used dpkg --get-selections, but how would I auto-send it to apt?
[01:34] <edbian> mingdao, install the grub-legacy package.  Then I think grub-update creates a menu.lst automatically.
[01:34] <mingdao> HHabib1: my first post: I have 10.04.1 and wanted grub legacy rather than grub2, so I removed grub2 and installed grub legacy
[01:34] <bonhoffer> airtonix: got it
[01:34] <bonhoffer> cool -- i like that idea
[01:34] <cheekee> I think Grub2 is a pain in the ass, but it is worth spending a couple of days to understand
[01:35] <Sickler> can someone help my figure out why my video flickers every now and then (vlc and ati)
[01:35] <HHabib1> okay mate we got few steps to do if you wanna downgrade grub2 ...are you gonna do that with me ?
[01:35] <airtonix> bonhoffer, heres something i found quickly http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1467468&page=1
[01:35] <bastidrazor> Thunderguy: that i don't know.
[01:35] <mingdao> HHabib1: with you mate!

[01:36] <airtonix> bonhoffer, http://askubuntu.com/questions/247/whats-your-recommendation-on-drive-partitioning-schemes-for-a-desktop-and-home-s
[01:36] <mingdao> HHabib1: NB: my system is booting now via grub-0.97 installed from another OS
[01:36] <HHabib1> we gonna first do a backup copy just in case something happens ...
[01:36] <HHabib1> do the following ...in the terminal write this : sudo cp /etc/default/grub /etc/default/grub.old
[01:36] <mingdao> done
[01:37] <HHabib1> now this : sudo cp -R /etc/grub.d /etc/grub.d.old
[01:37] <heebie> No luck on my video problem. :(
[01:37] <mingdao> done ... you can omit the sudo if you want, I'm root
[01:37] <airtonix> bonhoffer, although interesting point made at this : http://askubuntu.com/questions/247/whats-your-recommendation-on-drive-partitioning-schemes-for-a-desktop-and-home-s/3603#3603
[01:37] <HHabib1> okay now last one in packing up steps is : sudo cp -R /boot/grub /boot/grub.old
[01:37] <HHabib1> it's alright you can remove it mate.
[01:38] <mingdao> done ... remove what?
[01:38] <HHabib1> the sudo
[01:38] <ifme> habib. got time for one more problem
[01:38] <HHabib1> now let's remove grub2 do this : sudo apt-get purge grub2 grub-pc
[01:38] <mingdao> HHabib1: not to be rude, but the above steps aren't really needed, as I have only installed grub legacy and am using grub on anotehr OS
[01:38] <HHabib1> ifme let me finish with that dude first ..one thing at a time.
[01:38] <ifme> ok
[01:39] <mingdao> Package grub2 is not installed, so not removed
[01:39] <cheekee> If you don't take a time-out to understand Grub2, you'll be back here in a few wks
[01:39] <HHabib1> mingdao just follow I promise I will work out your problem ..I do not wanna screw up your system without doing a backup plan
[01:39] <mingdao> HHabib1: already removed grub2 and installed legacy before coming here
[01:39] <Sickler> can someone help my figure out why my video flickers every now and then (vlc and ati)
[01:39] <mingdao> HHabib1: no problem
[01:39] <heebie> Sickler: How often is every once in a while?
[01:40] <mingdao> cheekee: no, I won't ... this install is for testing to install to customer's computers, and they will only have one OS and use the default
[01:40] <Guest16187> Hi everyone I am having an issue with my cd tray randomly ejecting itself. Im trying find where on my system I can locate my cd drives drivers so I can begin troubleshooting.
[01:40] <ifme> i'm in gparted, and i want to know which sda not to remove. i don't want to dualboot. xubuntu has everything ubuntu 10 has.
[01:40] <HHabib1> okay your saying that you installed your grub 0.97 already right ?
[01:40] <mingdao> HHabib1: yes
[01:40] <Sickler> heebie, at first it was every minute, did some changes and now its every 5
[01:40] <Sickler> heebie, but it still happens
[01:40] <mingdao> HHabib1: before coming here ... and another OS with legacy is booting all 4 OSes now
[01:40] <HHabib1> okay type this in the terminal : sudo update-grub
[01:40] <heebie> Sickler: and it's not just some videos etc.?
[01:40] <Sickler> every iso i play
[01:41] <mingdao> HHabib1: but I want to edit grub and have my shiny, new Ubuntu system do it ;)
[01:41] <heebie> every iso?
[01:41] <Sickler> heebie,  every iso i play, yes
[01:41] <HHabib1> I know ..we gonna update it ..look up the list and everything will be fine ..did you update your installed grub yet ?
[01:41] <heebie> an iso isn't a video file you can "play".. what are they iso's of?
[01:41] <mingdao> HHabib1: Updating /boot/grub/menu.lst ... done
[01:41] <mingdao> HHabib1: thanks, that's what I needed
[01:41] <mingdao> HHabib1: appreciate your time
[01:42] <Sickler> heebie, yes vlc can play iso;s of dvds
[01:42] <claudiomet> Greetings! I have a little question :(
[01:42] <HHabib1> no no wait there's still few steps brother
[01:42] <cheekee> mingdao: then do a complete job for your customers...Grub2 is the new Grub...if they can't work with it then...
[01:42] <heebie> Sickler: That's not "playing" an ISO.. it mounts the ISO, then plays the DVD content that's on the ISO.
[01:42] <spivwaq> Hi all, starting Saturday I can't connect w/ wifi or cat5, could connect w/ wifi for the past 3 months..any ideas?
[01:42] <mingdao> cheekee: that is what they'll get ... but I've been working with another Linux project for almost a decade and don't have time for reading about new grub atm
[01:42] <Sickler> heebie, well it still flickers,
[01:42] <ifme> my gparted
[01:43] <BLZbubba> gdisk rules, parted drools
[01:43] <mingdao> cheekee: I will later ... right now I am finishing getting a business license for a company in this country, and preparing a quick and unexpected trip overseas
[01:43] <heebie> Sickler: You're probably just seeing glitches in decoding that happen when a lot of different things are going on. (If swapping of large pages of RAM to/from the swap partition are occurring, or disk writes, or if your video card is running low on RAM, or if your computer is etc...)
[01:43] <HHabib1> mingdao ...I am not finished ..you still have to deal a lil with your dev/sdX mate
[01:43] <mingdao> cheekee: so much going on I didn't want to keep reading "info grub" ... gave me the headache
[01:43] <mingdao> HHabib1: ?
[01:43] <BLZbubba> upstart sucks the sweat off a dead man's balls
[01:43]  * heebie is off for another reboot.
[01:43] <mingdao> HHabib1: I'm all ears mate!
[01:44] <claudiomet> anybody can help me with vlc+pidgin+musictracker ?
[01:44] <cheekee> mingdao: It takes 2 days to figure out...1 wk max...better than leaving a problem that will take a genius to sort out in a yrs time
[01:44] <HHabib1> sudo grub-install /dev/sdX in your terminal ..choose the correct device ...usually the one that has ubuntu installed on it.
[01:44] <Sickler> heebie, i am only useing 630mb of 2gb of ram and my hdd isnt even working
[01:44] <mingdao> cheekee: read, please ... I have more to do that read atm ... can do it on the 23 hour plane trip
[01:44] <HHabib1> cheeke : give the guy a break he seems to be busy with other projects man
[01:45] <airtonix> bonhoffer, is your webserver an intranet only thing ?
[01:45] <bonhoffer> no -- it's open
[01:45] <airtonix> bonhoffer, does it intergrate with ldap and kerberos ?
[01:45] <HHabib1> aright mingdao did you do the last command ?
[01:45] <v_v> !byobu
[01:45] <mingdao> HHabib1: a question, if you will ... Ubuntu and the other 3 OSes are on /dev/sdc ... /dev/sda and /dev/sdb are LVM in RAID, with OSes there, also ... can grub boot those in RAID?
[01:45] <bonhoffer> airtonix: kerberos, but why ldap
[01:46] <HHabib1> I do not know mingdao ...
[01:46] <xangua> claudiomet: the only wai i found for pidgin to show what i was seeing on vlc was to vlc sentd the info of the music/video to last.fm and then from last.fm to pidgin; don't remember how
[01:46] <CharlieSu> This is supposed to be fixed in Lucid I believe.  How do I use it?  https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/557130
[01:46] <airtonix> bonhoffer, well ldap is a better place to store users and group memberships in my humble opinion
[01:46] <mingdao> HHabib1: can I not use grub shell rather than grub-install?
[01:46] <HHabib1> yes
[01:46] <xangua> claudiomet: you can read more info at the musictacker site http://code.google.com/p/musictracker/
[01:46] <claudiomet> xangua: I hace the solution but I need to clarify one little thing
[01:47] <cheekee> mingdao: ok, but I wish you luck, with your future projects, if you take a shortcut on this
[01:47] <mingdao> HHabib1: you're hurting a brother who uses urxvt 95% of the day
[01:47] <bonhoffer> airtonix: so i am not using kerberos and ldap very effectively
[01:47] <HHabib1> haha
[01:47] <mingdao> cheekee: man, puleeze get a grib ... ;)
[01:47] <AsHeS35> hey guys i've some problem about setup
[01:47] <airtonix> bonhoffer, although im not that experienced with kerberos yet (i had the impression that they work together to provide centralied single sign on service)
[01:47] <claudiomet> xangua: to connect vlc+pidgin using musictracker, vlc must be launched as "vlc --control dbus"
[01:47] <mingdao> HHabib1: I'm not a n00b to *nix ... have worked with Slackware project for 7 years
[01:47] <Guest15782> @bonhoffer That is totally nerdy
[01:47] <HHabib1> cheekee your not the one who wrote grub2 are ya ? :D
[01:48] <mingdao> just the promoter :-)
[01:48] <HHabib1> mingdao I know brother ...keep the good work :D
[01:48] <AsHeS35> how can i fix grub error 17
[01:48] <ubuntu> still need help
[01:48] <airtonix> !ask
[01:48] <xangua> claudiomet: ok, didn't know that. bad thing i no longer use musictracker
[01:48] <heebie> AsHeS35: Have you googled what a grub error 17 is yet?
[01:48] <ubuntu> i want to take some stuff off of gpartd
[01:48] <AsHeS35> yes
[01:48] <claudiomet> xangua: how can I make this change permanent (launch always "vlc" as "vlc --control dbus")
[01:48] <claudiomet> ?
[01:48] <AsHeS35> heebie:yes
[01:48] <heebie> AsHeS35: So..what is the error? :)
[01:48] <Guest15782> How do I look up a domains IP form the CL?
[01:48] <ubuntu> i only want one system now. not dual boot
[01:48] <HHabib1> alright where did that other guy that wants help go ?
[01:48] <claudiomet> xangua: creating an alias doesn't work
[01:49] <AsHeS35> heebie:its about hdd but i couldn't understand
[01:49] <HHabib1> seems to be gone mad on me ..alright :/
[01:49] <heebie> AsHeS35: that's not descriptive enough for me to understand either. What did it specifically say?
[01:49] <cheekee> I actually spent 1 month to understand the Grub2 docs, not 1 wk or 2, but having understood it...Legacy Grub is trash
[01:49] <mingdao> HHabib1: I did run "grub-install /dev/sdc" to follow through with you, it's just not done it's thing yet
[01:50] <HHabib1> alright now echo "grub hold" | sudo dpkg --set-selections just to keep it not to upgrade to grub2 automatically ..
[01:50] <Guest15782> ubuntu: you can wipe your HD during install from the CD
[01:50] <AsHeS35> heebie: i tried to setup ubuntu two times and when i opened the computer,i saw that
[01:50] <HHabib1> you know at night they do "bad" upgrades mate :D
[01:50] <mingdao> cheekee: I got to finish doing paperwork with the Chinese gov't to open a business; then make a trip to America ... in the next 2 weeks. When I return, or while lounging in the States, I'll get with the program ... okay?
[01:50] <heebie> AsHeS35: A quick google makes it seem like you ahve to turn on LBA mode in the BIOS on your computer.
[01:50] <HHabib1> lol
[01:51] <cbilljones> guest15782, i believe ddig does that
[01:51] <Sickler> can someone help my figure out why my video flickers every now and then (vlc and ati)
[01:51] <cbilljones> dig
[01:51] <mingdao> HHabib1: still at "Searching for GRUB installation directory ... found: /boot/grub"
[01:51] <AsHeS35> heebie:there isn't a choice which i can do
[01:51] <HHabib1> alright as soon as your done put that command it will keep it not to "grow" to be grub2 again
[01:51] <AsHeS35> heebie:i don't have a choice like that
[01:51] <heebie> AsHeS35: What kind of BIOS is it?
[01:51] <AsHeS35> heebie:asus
[01:51] <cheekee> mingdao: no probs, you seem quite clever...It will probably take you only a few days to understand Grub2
[01:51] <mingdao> Sickler: you might need to post some more relevant information ... don't post to me personally, I don't know Ubuntu yet :-)
[01:52] <mingdao> cheekee: more like a month most likely ;)
[01:52] <cheekee> lol
[01:52] <ijij> [05:20] <mingdao> Slackware has been losing users to other 64-bit arches, as well as these point-and-click distros such as Ubuntu.
[01:52] <AsHeS35> heebie:asus p5
[01:52] <ijij> heh
[01:52] <heebie> AsHeS35: I've not seen an Asus where you couldn't set that... but I haven't bought a new Asus motherboard in like 7-8 years now.
[01:53] <mingdao> HHabib1: should it take this long? I entered the command about 7 minutes ago and it's finally getting it done :-)
[01:53]  * mingdao is a n00b for sure
[01:54] <HHabib1> yeap that's alright
[01:54] <mingdao> HHabib1: finally, it's installing grub
[01:54] <`d-_-b`> hi all. i`m looking out for preconfig for hybrid ... anyone?
[01:54] <AsHeS35> heebie:i search it for a while,i dk where it is ?
[01:54] <HHabib1> after that command do a reboot and you should be "good to go" ...wish you a good trip back home.
[01:54] <mingdao> HHabib1: I'd wager the LVM / RAID made it loop a bit ... and the extra 550G drive hanging off sdd I forgot about ;)
[01:54] <AsHeS35> heebie:i looked boot options and hdd options there is no choice like that
[01:54] <HHabib1> lol
[01:55] <Guest15782> how do I look up a domain's IP from the CL?
[01:55] <AsHeS35> heebie:may be i try 32 bit version ?
[01:55] <heebie> AsHeS35: it shoudl be right on the first page of the BIOS. There should be a spot where it shows the hard-drive types, and it's usually set to "Auto" by default.
[01:55] <heebie> AsHeS35: I don't think a 32-bit version of the OS will make a difference.
[01:55] <cbilljones> guest15782, did you try dig?
[01:55] <BLZbubba> so on lucid server is there any way to skip the upstart boot process?  it is having an issue with udev or nfs or something and even rescue mode doesn't work
[01:55] <AsHeS35> heebie: do i make a live-cd ?
[01:56] <heebie> BLZbubba: Does it throw you error messages?
[01:56] <photofroggy> need a little help with shell scripting
[01:56] <CharlieSu> How does a backported driver work?  I want access to a module (atl1c) that was backported to 10.04
[01:56] <BLZbubba> heebie: no
[01:56] <CharlieSu> photofroggy: shoot
[01:56] <BLZbubba> of course not
[01:56] <heebie> AsHeS35: You download a Cd image from the Ubuntu site and burn it to CD.
[01:56] <BLZbubba> is there a way to use sysvinit instead?
[01:56] <`d-_-b`> Needed>>>ircd.conf - hybrid<<<Anyone?
[01:56] <AsHeS35> yes i did it
[01:56] <heebie> BLZbubba: No error messages at all? :(
[01:56] <AsHeS35> heebie:yes i did it
[01:56] <photofroggy> CharlieSu: how would I start a process in a shell script without it waiting for the process to finish?
[01:56] <CharlieSu> photofroggy: you'd like it to background?
[01:56] <AsHeS35> heebie:if i setup on boot,is it gonna be okay ?
[01:57] <photofroggy> CharlieSu: and if possible, have it on a specific screen?
[01:57] <mingdao> HHabib1: thanks, mate ... for your help and the best wishes
[01:57] <BLZbubba> or maybe a way to tell upstart to write verbose output to a log file
[01:57] <HHabib1> your welcome brother :)
[01:57] <photofroggy> CharlieSu: not really background, pushing it to a specific screen would be ideal
[01:57] <CharlieSu> photofroggy: not sure about that.. sorry.
[01:58] <photofroggy> CharlieSu: well, what about background?
[01:58] <ubuntu4shane> photofroggy: what app are you trying to do that with?
[01:58] <photofroggy> ubuntu4shane: a python script
[01:58] <netwrkspider> Hi ubuntu
[01:58] <BLZbubba> this is just retarded, i hope red hat doesn't make this mistake
[01:58] <CharlieSu> photofroggy: what is the end goal?
[01:58] <photofroggy> just to launch the process...
[01:58] <ubuntu4shane> photofroggy: ok, what do you mean by pushing it to a specific screen like tty?  or the virtual screens?
[01:58] <netwrkspider> which type of mistake
[01:59] <photofroggy> ubuntu4shane: a virtual screen, I guess, one created with `screen -dmS name`
[02:00] <ubuntu4shane> photofroggy: hmm, that is a bit over my head, usually scripting isn't GUI related
[02:00] <heebie> AsHeS35: I don't know if it'll be O.K.  I don't know why you're getting that error.  It could be that it's just a really old motherboard. (It would have to be REALLY REALLY old not to understand LBA mode.)
[02:01] <AsHeS35> heebie:i setupped some other linux version which is pardus and i delete on win7(the motherboard is REALLY REALLY new )
[02:01] <AsHeS35> heebie:is it  a problem for ubuntu ? or setup
[02:01] <c10> hola a todos como estan?
[02:02] <ubuntu4shane> !es | c10

[02:05] <CharlieSu> photofroggy: can you not just shell out to do that?
[02:06] <photofroggy> CharlieSu: ? I want to use a cronjob
[02:07] <CharlieSu> photofroggy: you want start something in in a named screen that is spawned from a python script?  right?
[02:07] <photofroggy> CharlieSu: managed to bash this out http://pastie.org/1321781
[02:07] <photofroggy> no I want the python script to run in a named screen, CharlieSu
[02:08] <`d-_-b`> guys why dont u just use private instead of quoting ur nicknames every 5 secs :D
[02:08] <`d-_-b`> i dont mind but its kinda funny :D
[02:09] <photofroggy> makes it easier for other people to contribute ideas, if they know anything useful
[02:09] <IdleOne> `d-_-b`: because in a channel this large, which at the moment is slow, quoting or highlighting the person you are speaking to makes it easier to follow a conversation
[02:09] <`d-_-b`> i know man i was just kiddin` :)
[02:09] <`d-_-b`> go on ...
[02:09] <`d-_-b`> :)
[02:09] <`d-_-b`> IdleOne u dont get me, do u? :)
[02:10] <IdleOne> `d-_-b`: starting to
[02:10] <sol326> well if you ask a question in a serious chat you get a serious answer what do you expect

[02:10] <lucas_> hi! I installed some packages from Mint and now the original "ubuntu desktop" release is renamed to "LinuxMint". Is there any way to change it back?
[02:10] <IdleOne> lucas_: a clean install of Ubuntu
[02:10] <IdleOne> !mintsupport | lucas_
[02:11] <xangua> lucas_: something you don't DO is to mix repositorioes from other distros
[02:11] <`d-_-b`> lucas_ - get a Mac :D
[02:12] <mfilipe> anyone know how can I improve my Ruby? it is very slow. :(
[02:12] <`d-_-b`> mfilipe - go for an iMac Work Station
[02:12] <mfilipe> :(
[02:13] <kaolbrec> hrrmf. Google is not forthcoming. Is the lifecam VX-800 supported by ubuntu?
[02:13] <lucas_> 'd-_-b': Don't have so much money to waste ;)
[02:13] <IdleOne> `d-_-b`: Do you plan on helping people with actual support or just feel like playing?
[02:13] <CharlieSu> photofroggy: why does it need to run in screen and can you not just do http://pastie.org/private/qgzcyhzgzzwmmubcsmdbq
[02:13] <mfilipe> `d-_-b` in other distribution it was fast but in Ubuntu it is slow
[02:13] <commodore> Die. Buntu nooks
[02:14] <photofroggy> CharlieSu: because I'd like to be able to see what the program is doing if I need to
[02:14] <photofroggy> CharlieSu: but most of the time I don't need to
[02:14] <`d-_-b`> IdleOne im not joking. it`s a solution, don`t u think ? :D
[02:14] <CharlieSu> photofroggy: if you're running it from cron why don't you log the output ?  redirect it to a file or to a local syslog facility
[02:14] <oldschool> mneptok are you still around and not bizzy ?
[02:15] <photofroggy> CharlieSu: not really ideal..
[02:15] <oldschool> :)
[02:15] <CharlieSu> photofroggy: why?
[02:15] <mfilipe> `d-_-b` a dumb solution but yeah, it is a solution
[02:15] <CkhiKuzad> I know it is really obnoxious when people just go "hay guise help me pl0x!" in here, but basically thats what I'm going to have to do. I need help from someone who knows how to modify compiled python programs, and then recompile them. I'm trying to modify my Software center binary so that it wont work like "Download>Install>Download>Install>Download>Install" and will work like "Download>Download other packages while installing l
[02:15] <CkhiKuzad> ast package>Installing other packages while still downloading the other packages"
[02:15] <CharlieSu> photofroggy: you can run it w/ screen like i showed you..  screen will exit once the process is complete..  if it is still running and you'd like to see the output you can attach it
[02:16] <IdleOne> CkhiKuzad: #ubuntu-packaging might be able to help
[02:16] <CkhiKuzad> Thanks IdleOne.
[02:16] <ubuntu4shane> CkhiKuzad: if you get that done, submit it to Ubuntu, because that would be a good improvement all around.
[02:16] <photofroggy> CharlieSu, great, but how do I name that screen?
[02:17] <CharlieSu> photofroggy: add the -S 'name' option
[02:17] <photofroggy> I tried that just now and it didn't seem to want to work
[02:17] <photofroggy> one min
[02:17] <CharlieSu> pastebin it..
[02:17] <CkhiKuzad> ubuntu4shane, Is why I'm trying to do it, it would save everyone who doesnt use CLI based packaging a lot of time
[02:17] <photofroggy> nvm, it was a bug in my code :)
[02:18] <CharlieSu> photofroggy: figured :)
[02:18] <photofroggy> CharlieSu: thanks for the help :)
[02:18] <`d-_-b`> ph0n7r1c CONGRATS!
[02:18] <ubuntu4shane> CkhiKuzad: I use cli, but kind of like the new Software center, but that would be a very nice improvement.
[02:19] <`d-_-b`> photofroggy : CONGRATS TO U TOO!
[02:19] <_Tristan1> photofroggy: do I know you?
[02:19] <photofroggy> _Tristan1: I dunno, who are you?
[02:19] <CkhiKuzad> I like the screenshots of the packages in the SC, something that apt doesn't have. I use apt more because of the speed, but i like the center.
[02:19] <_Tristan1> photofroggy: I'm tristiano77, who are you?
[02:19] <photofroggy> lol
[02:19] <photofroggy> _Tristan1: I'm photofroggy
[02:19] <photofroggy> :P
[02:19] <CharlieSu> photofroggy: no problem..
[02:20] <_Tristan1> knew it!
[02:20] <photofroggy> sort of obvious though

[02:24] <jonathan> @idleone: yes i installed using wubi
[02:24] <cbilljones> jonathan, you have at least 3 if you include swap

[02:27] <ubuntu4shane> jags: I think you can do that with parcelite
[02:28] <egsome> After I have attached my second monitor to my Dell Inspiron N5010 ( Intel GFX Card ) ( Ubuntu 10.10 64bit ), I've got blurry text almost every where, any ideas ?
[02:28] <jonathan> hmmmm, so there ain't a way to just view windows files in this partition just like in partition 1?
[02:28] <cbilljones> jonathan, do you see it in places?
[02:29] <ubuntu4shane> jags parcellite
[02:29] <jags> thank you ubuntu4shane
[02:29] <ubuntu4shane> jags: parcellite does this with parcellite -c
[02:29] <jonathan> @cbilljones: i only see part1, no part2 shown but when i open my computer, part2 is shown as file system
[02:29] <ubuntu4shane> jags install parcellite then run parcellite --help it gives you a brief overview of using it, pretty simple
[02:30] <cbilljones> jonathan, so you see it in "computer"?
[02:31] <lyecum>  大家好

[02:46]  * Gulfstream totally would use 11.04 instead of 10.10 on a pruduction machine
[02:46]  * phaeton would toadilly use 17.99
[02:46]  * Gnea looks at Gulfstream

[02:50] <XuMuK> phaeton: http://code.google.com/p/burg/wiki/InstallUbuntu
[02:50] <cbilljones> i mean burg
[02:50] <zoidfarb> For testing/compatibility purposes, I'd like to be able to install several older legacy versions of Firefox. Could anyone give me some tips on how to set this up?
[02:51] <XuMuK> Dr_Willis: I've got a NVidia 8600GS and it works greatly...
[02:51] <Dr_Willis> ubuntu4shane:  an alernative to GRUB that has fancy themeing.. somnthing that grub will proberly get in the near future.
[02:51] <lykeus> I upgraded my laptop from 10.04 to 10.10 using the update-manager and now what to also update my main PC. Since I have limited bandwith I was wondering if there is a cache folder so that I could copy the files over?
[02:51] <Dr_Willis> XuMuK:  it worked.. i just dident get the pertty themes.. i could of been dongs omthing wrong.  I had a text menu.
[02:51] <pc-moon> anyone help i have problem
[02:51] <Dr_Willis> lykeus:  /var/cache/apt/
[02:51] <pc-moon> in ubuntu
[02:51] <XuMuK> Dr_Willis: but did you install them?
[02:52] <Dr_Willis> lykeus:  you may want to set up 'apt-cacher-ng' on the main machine to cache stuff automaticaly for the whole lan.
[02:52] <cbilljones> pc-moon, post your issue, someone will help if they can
[02:52] <XuMuK> I mean burg themes
[02:52] <ubuntu4shane> Dr_Willis: cool, that will be nice,  I have seen some nicer grub menus in other distros that I always liked.
[02:52] <ubuntu4shane> !question | pc-moon
[02:52] <Dr_Willis> XuMuK:  used some 'burg' tool that downloaded/installed  them (or so it said)  they never seemed to take efffect.  but i dident  really look into it much more
[02:52] <pc-moon> i installed ubuntu 8 in desktop
[02:52] <pc-moon> but i can't connect with internet
[02:52] <Dr_Willis> pc-moon:  8.04 8.10 ?
[02:53] <pc-moon> no another computer
[02:53] <TheConundrum> is there a way to get a package and all dependencies in a .deb?
[02:53] <lykeus> Dr_Willis: There doesn't appear to be all debs in there. I still have to download an awful lot of files (around 1GB).
[02:53] <Dr_Willis> pc-moon:  you may want to try a newer version.
[02:53] <ubuntu4shane> pc-moon: wireless or hard-wired?
[02:53] <XuMuK> Dr_Willis: the way I installed it was by adding burg ppa and apt-get it...
[02:53] <Dr_Willis> lykeus:   there may be a limit to the cache size.
[02:53] <pc-moon> no caple
[02:53] <pc-moon> i have DSL caple
[02:53] <pc-moon> but not connect
[02:53] <Dr_Willis> !dsl | pc-moon
[02:53] <Dr_Willis> bye all.. bbl.
[02:54] <pc-moon> also i have alpha USB
[02:54] <pc-moon> but not define from ubuntu
[02:54] <pc-moon> i wanna upgrade by anyway
[02:54] <ubuntu4shane> pc-moon: is there any reason you went with Ubuntu 8?  Ubuntu 10.10 is the latest, and Ubuntu 10.04 is the latest Long Term Support version, may be best to use one of them.
[02:55] <ubuntu4shane> pc-moon: it would be best for you download the latest Ubuntu image and install that.
[02:55] <ProtiK> Hey, I was having a problem installing Ubuntu on my netbooks earlier. Someone suggested I try to install the alternative version, which appears to be working so far, up to the point where it asks me to identify the CD ROM drive. Being a netbook, this is impossible, and it won't continue until I do. What do?
[02:55] <pc-moon> i need more time to download 10
[02:55] <ubuntu4shane> pc-moon: either of the two I mentioned above.
[02:56] <ubuntu4shane> pc-moon: upgrading is going to be a very long process, you are going to be best off starting with a fresh install
[02:56] <pc-moon> okey i'll install ver 10 and back
[02:56] <lykeus> Dr_Willis: darn, ok. Haven't thought of that. Maybe I should increase that for the next time. What would be the way of getting a list of urls to all the debs. (I suppose apt-get won't work for that unless I update the sources.list, and I don't know what side-effects that might cause).
[02:57] <ubuntu4shane> lykeus: Dr_Willis signed off. :(
[02:57] <pc-moon> thank u
[02:57] <ProtiK> Anyone?
[02:57] <ubuntu4shane> pc-moon: no problem
[02:57] <cbilljones> protik, i think your issue is covered on this wiki:  https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/FromUSBStick
[02:57] <ProtiK> cbilljones: Oh hey, you again. :D Thanks bro
[02:58] <cbilljones> protik, no problem, you will need to start over, but there is a workaround
[02:58] <ProtiK> cbilljones: Can do, thanks.
[02:58] <bonhoffer> i just upgraded, now i can't ssh to my server
[02:59] <lykeus> Someone knows how to get a list of urls for the debs neccessary to dist-upgrade ones system?
[02:59] <bonhoffer> how do i start the ssh daemon
[02:59] <bonhoffer> i can connect directly through the server's website
[03:00] <disappearedng> Hey any way I can boot without the bootscreen?
[03:00] <cbilljones> !ssh
[03:00] <ubuntu4shane> bonhoffer: sudo servic sshd start
[03:00] <bonhoffer> servic or service
[03:00] <ubuntu4shane> bonhoffer: sudo service sshd start
[03:00] <ubuntu4shane> bonhoffer: typo. :)
[03:01] <bonhoffer> ssh root@75.127.97.105
[03:01] <ProtiK> cbilljones: I don't see where the workaround is, can you post a keyword or something so I can jump to it?
[03:01] <XuMuK> disappearedng: and what do you want instead?
[03:01] <ubuntu4shane> bonhoffer: 3rd time is a charm:  sudo service ssh start
[03:01] <Pici> bonhoffer: The service name is ssh, not sshd.
[03:01] <disappearedng> cause I am installing ubuntu on mac
[03:01] <disappearedng> and it just hangs at the screen
[03:01] <cbilljones> protik, can i PM you?
[03:01] <disappearedng> can't even get dmesg
[03:02] <ProtiK> cbilljones: Sure
[03:02] <XuMuK> disappearedng: with no errors?
[03:02] <disappearedng> it just hangs at "ubunut"
[03:03] <disappearedng> let me try to boot into recovery mode
[03:03] <ubuntu4shane> disappearedng: I think if you hit ctrl alt F1 you can see the boot process and see what is hanging
[03:04] <XuMuK> disappearedng: try to delete "quiet splash" at the COMMAND string in /etc/default/grub and do "sudo update-grub" and restart after...
[03:05] <arthax> good night i need help
[03:05] <XuMuK> disappearedng: this will give you dmesg output at boot time...
[03:05] <arthax> i have a problem whit mi ubuntu 10.04 whit apt-get
[03:06] <arthax> sorry whit synaptic
[03:06] <ubuntu4shane> arthax: what error are you getting?
[03:06] <XuMuK> arthax: what exactly?
[03:06] <N00bsauce> I think I found a bug with the maverick installer. http://img843.imageshack.us/img843/6923/screenshot4c0.png  If somebody can take a look. The installer is incorrectly reading my partition table
[03:06] <arthax> if i can search a package mark a error :   traslationl18es
[03:07] <Greenster> I Installed UBUNTU using WUBI - Just avoid the partitions on a new netbook - The netbook came with Windows7. After installing UBUNTU I now have 2 bootloaders (Windows Boot Manager & Grub) Is it possible to Remove one of them???
[03:08] <tinytim> i am confused -- i can't install ssh -- i get W: Not using locking for read only lock file /var/lib/dpkg/lock
[03:08] <arthax> if this problem its result in ubuntu 111.04
[03:08] <arthax> sorry ubuntu 11.04
[03:08] <tinytim> ubuntu 10.4
[03:08] <tinytim> plus i can't ssh to the server
[03:09] <kgs> Does anyone have anything to say about installing fluxbox on Ubuntu 10.10? How does it mesh with the system?
[03:09] <XuMuK> tinytim: close all synaptic/update-manager/apt-get processes and try again...
[03:09] <ubuntu4shane> tinytim: probably the update is running in the background, (checking the repos) wait a few moments and try again, for ssh I'm pretty sure you want to install ssh-common
[03:09] <arthax> tanks xumuk
[03:09] <tinytim> thanks
[03:09] <arthax> i can try , say you later
[03:09] <toqek> hi all
[03:09] <Greenster> I Installed UBUNTU using WUBI - Just avoid the partitions on a new netbook - The netbook came with Windows7. After installing UBUNTU I now have 2 bootloaders (Windows Boot Manager & Grub) Is it possible to Remove one of them???
[03:10] <ubuntu4shane> Greenster: I think the way wubi setups the install you better leave it the way it is, there may be a way, but I'm not real sure.
[03:11] <tinytim> ubuntu4shane: how can i see if the update is running in the background?
[03:11] <tinytim> ps aux
[03:11] <XuMuK> Greenster: it isn't a good idea to install the WUBI version...
[03:11] <tinytim> ?
[03:11] <alraune> tinytim: or top/htop
[03:11] <needinfo> Have bamboo tablet MTE-450A on Lucid (10.04). Pad buttons and finger circle move cursor to upper left of screen. How much work will I have to do to correct this problem?
[03:11] <ubuntu4shane> tinytim: hmm  top   or sudo apt-get update  and see if that throws the same error.
[03:12] <XuMuK> tinytim: this is one of many ways... but it'd be "ps aux|grep -i update"
[03:12] <ubuntu4shane> tinytim: there ya go! ^^  that would be the best.
[03:12] <emma> Anyone here have any insight into whether you can expect this to work well with Ubuntu -- Broadcom BCM4313
[03:12] <emma> as a wireless device ^
[03:13] <alraune> !broadcom
[03:13] <kgs> emma: I might have that same card.
[03:13] <N00bsauce>  I think I found a bug with the maverick installer. http://img843.imageshack.us/img843/6923/screenshot4c0.png  If somebody can take a look. The installer is incorrectly reading my partition table I'm afraid it might overwrite data /dev/sda3 is the target. Fresh install from LiveCD. fdisk reads the same thing. Only way I could create ext4 is via mkfs. Also tried it with the partition being RAW.
[03:13] <lucas-arg> how can i solve this http://paste.ubuntu.com/535748/ ?
[03:13] <alraune> emma: ^saw ubott.. ?
[03:13] <tinytim> XuMuK: thanks!
[03:13] <lucas-arg> cant remove those packages
[03:13] <XuMuK> tinytim: wlcm!
[03:14] <emma> kgs: is that what it says when you do iwconfig?
[03:14] <alraune> lucas-arg: can boot another kernel and then get rid of it
[03:14] <tinytim> XuMuK: hmm . . . no upgrades running
[03:15] <lucas-arg> alraune: im in other kernel... not 2.6.35-25
[03:15] <lucas-arg> alraune: im in 2.6.35-26
[03:15] <ToastyJustice> Hrm, has anyone successfully connected to WPA2 Enterprise Wifi around here? My university doesn't support linux :/
[03:15] <ubuntu4shane> XuMuK: are you sure it is upgrade?  or upgrade-manager?
[03:15] <ubuntu4shane> tinytim: are you still getting the error when you try now?
[03:15] <nibz_> ToastyJustice: with network manager? no. with wpa-supplicant, yes
[03:15] <XuMuK> ubuntu4shane: not sure, it was that he sad...
[03:15] <tinytim> http://pastie.org/1321860
[03:16] <ubuntu4shane> tinytim: you have connection issues
[03:16] <tinytim> oh . . .
[03:16] <ubuntu4shane> tinytim: are you connected?
[03:16] <tinytim> this is on a vps (linode)
[03:17] <tinytim> i can't ssh in, but they provide an ajax console
[03:17] <alraune> lucas-arg: sudo apt-get autoremove && sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade
[03:17] <XuMuK> tinytim: did you try to reboot and do the same just after the sistem is booted?
[03:17] <ubuntu4shane> tinytim: ahh, ok, that would explain, because you aren't connected to the web there, that is why you have all the errors
[03:17] <kgs> emma: iwconfig doesn't give me any info about the driver or anything like that.
[03:17] <lucas-arg> alraune: mmm how will this solve it?
[03:17] <tinytim> XuMuK: i can try to reboot again
[03:18] <ToastyJustice> nibz_: wpa-supplicant you say? I'll check it out, thanks :)
[03:18] <alraune> lucas-arg: seems like your packagement is borked
[03:18] <ubuntu4shane> lucas-arg: in the terminal run sudo apt-get -f install
[03:18] <alraune> lucas-arg: *management
[03:18] <ubuntu4shane> lucas-arg: and see if that fixes it.
[03:18] <XuMuK> tinytim: try it after reboot without opening synaptic nor update-manager...
[03:18] <alraune> ubuntu4shane: next step :)
[03:19] <ubuntu4shane> alraune: :)  just thought I would throw that in there. :)
[03:19] <lucas-arg> alraune: ubuntu4shane same problem with both options
[03:19] <alraune> lucas-arg: if that doesn't do it, try from init 1 and also try by synaptic
[03:21] <lucas-arg> alraune: i think the problem is that synaptic removed -image first and then tried to remove those packages...
[03:21] <emma> kgs: ahh i thought it would tell the wireless device
[03:21] <alraune> lucas-arg: dpkg -l | linux-backports-modules-alsa*
[03:21] <alraune> lucas-arg: still installed ?
[03:22] <lucas-arg> alraune: those are the only backport packages i have installed right now
[03:22] <kgs> emma: Nope. But wait.. it is probably located somewhere on the laptop itself... that is if the sticker hasn't rubbed off or something. Let me give it a look real quick.
[03:22] <alraune> lucas-arg: sudo dpkg -r linux-backports-modules-alsa*
[03:23] <emma> kgs: oh thanks :)
[03:24] <N00bsauce> Needing some assistance in determining the source of failure http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=10155776
[03:24] <kgs> emma: It is... BCM94312HMG.
[03:24] <tinytim> anyone know why /etc/fstab is read only sudo won't even open it
[03:25] <lighta> how come sudo don't open it tinytim ? sudo gedit /etc/fstab ?
[03:25] <ubuntu4shane> tinytim: ls -l /etc/fstab
[03:26] <tinytim> one second
[03:26] <kgs> emma: Scratch that last line... my card is a BCM4312
[03:26] <XuMuK> ubuntu4shane: may be cat? fstab isn't a directory...
[03:26] <lighta> i'm trying to join ##java but nothing happend, is it my irc client or ?
[03:26] <tinytim> -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 186 Nov 23 22:18 /etc/fstab
[03:26] <XuMuK> aah... sorry
[03:27] <tinytim> should be able to do it
[03:27] <ubuntu4shane> tinytim: you should be able to edit that, with sudo nano /etc/fstab
[03:27] <ubuntu4shane> tinytim: be careful messing around with that file, back it up
[03:27] <ubuntu4shane> tinytim: are you working via ssh?
[03:27] <StrangeCharm> is it possilbe to set up raid, lvm, or disk encryption on the regular install disk?
[03:27] <tinytim> ubuntu4shane: kind of -- working via lish
[03:28] <ubuntu4shane> tinytim: ok, I'm not familiar with lish, but you probably know if you have gui or not, and if you prefer nano or vi
[03:29] <ubuntu4shane> tinytim: backup the file before messing around with it though. :)
[03:29] <tinytim> yeah -- but nano tells me i have a read-only file system
[03:29] <tinytim> same problem as emacs
[03:29] <XuMuK> tinytim: open it wit sudo nano instead...
[03:29] <yxz97> http://grupoice.go.cr/esp/temas/wcam/trans/wm3.htm
[03:29] <tinytim> sudo nano -- what i did before
[03:30] <yxz97> I cannot see that page
[03:30] <ubuntu4shane> tinytim: ohh, that is going to be a mounting prob, or they way lish is interacting.
[03:30] <yxz97> The requested plugins are:
[03:30] <yxz97> MMSH protocol source
[03:30] <alraune> tinytim: sudo chmod +w /etc/fstab
[03:30] <XuMuK> don't do that
[03:30] <yxz97> No packages with the requested plugin found
[03:30] <yxz97> what can I do ?
[03:30] <ubuntu4shane> tinytim: no, they way the filesystem is mounted is read only, it doesn't matter
[03:30] <c4pt> hi i was wondering how do i change my user's icon ?
[03:31] <tinytim> ubuntu4shane: yeah -- i don't think it will help
[03:31] <c4pt> i cant seem to do this in users and groups from the menu bar

[03:33] <ubuntu4shane> tinytim: hmm, I"m not sure on that, but based on the error, it is either 1.  Mounted as read only, or 2.  lish is limiting your writing ability.
[03:33] <XuMuK> c4pt: click on icon in session indicator applet at the top panel

[04:40] <xangua> SingAlong: that's !offtopic , there is a puppy-lucid
[04:40] <djohns> ubuntu server as a start?
[04:40] <alraune> xangua: or delete the wrong certificate and get proper one from msn
[04:40] <milo> xangua, alraune: let me try
[04:40] <Gnea> stellarnight: if you could clue us in to what hardware you're using, we might be able to get it working
[04:40] <bazhang> SingAlong, couple of ways; minimal iso and buildup, or use the ubuntu customization kit
[04:41] <stellarnight> Gnea: I'm running Gnome Version: 2.32.0, Ubuntu 10.10 Maverick Meerkat, MacBook Pro 5,2.  My wireless card is a Broadcom Corporation BCM4322 802.11a/b/g/n. I've tried System->Administrator->Additional Drivers and System->Administrator->Windows Wireless Drivers.

[04:43] <Agent007> Can I cut a mp4 video file in halves so it doesn't skip?
[04:43] <Gnea> stellarnight: have you located and read this page yet:  https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MacBookPro5-1_5-2/Maverick
[04:43] <Sameyeam> How can I stop having to type password in twice on each boot?
[04:43] <alraune> Agent007: checkout handbrake,various formats possible
[04:43] <dome> and how do i install a theme
[04:44] <alraune> Agent007: lucid ?
[04:44] <sol326> http://iscsi-scst.sourceforge.net/iscsi-scst-howto.txt
[04:44] <sol326> anyone have any experience with the kernel rebuild?
[04:44] <alraune> Sameyeam: can have automated login
[04:44] <ferris_> SingAlong, what do you mean? Are you trying to make a live cd? or a distro that uses a menu based desktop manager?
[04:44] <Agent007> alraune, i played the mp4 file on mplayer and vlc, and the file skips while the audio plays
[04:44] <dome> i want to install a theme
[04:44] <SingAlong> ferris_: whats a menu-based desktop manager?
[04:45] <N00bsauce> !theme > dome
[04:45] <alraune> sol326: take a look at kernelcheck, very handy tool
[04:45] <xangua> dome: drag it to the 'appearen' window
[04:45] <SingAlong> ferris_: just looking to add a few pkg and remove a lot of ones not required
[04:45] <tinytim> i am loaded only as a read only file system how do i re mount as writable?
[04:45] <Agent007> alraune, but i played a smaller size mp4 file and it was fine
[04:45] <SingAlong> ferris_: and probably change the GNOME to Xfce etc
[04:45] <SingAlong> or anything lighter.
[04:45] <alraune> Agent007: so a corrupted file
[04:45] <tinytim> it is /dev/xvda that i want to reload
[04:46] <shmup> Where might I find Startup Applications in 10.10?
[04:46] <shmup> System -> Preferences -> ??
[04:46] <sol326> alraune: server program??
[04:46] <ferris_> uninstalling gnome through synaptec will remove a lot of packages, and then install xfce
[04:46] <stellarnight> Gnea: Yeah, that has been my bible for the last few days. I have installed all the apt-get that is suggests. It incorrectly suggests System->Administration->Hardware Drivers when in fact it should suggest System->Administration->Additional Drivers.
[04:46] <alraune> sol326: you asked about rebuilding a kernel
[04:46] <Agent007> alraune,  are there any other possibility?
[04:47] <sol326> yes... within the current kernel..
[04:47] <djohns> if you wanna go lite might wanna try lxde
[04:47] <Gnea> stellarnight: well, if additional drivers isn't working, how would either be correct?  They're apparently in the midst of updating their documentation on it, have you signed on to help out with that?
[04:47] <dome> that didn't work
[04:47] <alraune> sol326: http://kcheck.sourceforge.net/
[04:48] <N00bsauce> Anybody know if there is a ubiquity equivalent from cli (not alternate cd)?
[04:48] <alraune> Agent007: can try ffmpeg, but that has a-- rather complex syntax
[04:48] <alraune> !info ffmpeg
[04:48] <stellarnight> Gnea: When I first was trying to install STA it failed. It told me to go to jockey.log. I've been having internet problems lately that have been preventing me from logging on to help out. ;)
[04:49] <alraune> Agent007: it also lets you alter specs of a peg aca sampling and such
[04:49] <Agent007> It seems I already have ffmpeg
[04:49] <alraune> sol326: what is the cause for your attempt ?
[04:50] <Gnea> stellarnight: well that sucks, but now that you're back on, you might want to give it a shot, perhaps someone within that circle knows how to fix your problem better than we can at this point
[04:50] <brodymcd> dvd drive works, in bios, can play from VLC, does NOT show up in places... when I find it in nautilus, it has an X on it and says I have no permissions, cannot even change them with root... can someone help me get my dvd back?

[05:28] <ferris_> always install win7 first, then ubuntu... reinstall ubuntu
[05:28] <weed_up> but i installed ubuntu in a removable hard disk
[05:28] <didt> I'm running rsync from live ubuntu cd. I can't sync some files because "Permission Denied (13)" error. Is there a way to get permissions and transfer these files??
[05:29] <youlun> cong: Can you be more specific? I've already found several places in Kubuntu to configure language options. I have my input method set to ibus, and in ibus preferences I have "Show icon on system tray" checked.
[05:29] <Jacenzzz> I can't boot into a LiveCD or a USB,,,
[05:29] <Seven_Six_Two> didt, are the partitions mounted rw and are you owner or part of group? Is it only certain directories? Certain files?
[05:29] <weed_up> and then insatlled win7。。。forgot to remove the disk
[05:30] <didt> I'm running ubuntu and I can't copy files from one drive to another drive because I keep getting an error saying that I don't have permission. Help?
[05:30] <rahduke> hey i need to take permissions of all files and folders located at /media/bigdrive, my user name is rahduke. I just built a new pc
[05:30] <rahduke> whats the chown command i need
[05:30] <alraune> Jacenzzz: that will be hard then, can attach the drive to another running ubuntu ?
[05:30] <alraune> !who | Jacenzzz:
[05:30] <ferris_> weed_up, there may be a different way to get ubuntu up and running and some one else might help but the way I would do it is to reinstall ubuntu
[05:31] <Seven_Six_Two> rahduke, man chown          sudo chown -R rahduke.rahduke /media/bigdrive
[05:31] <rahduke> thanks seven
[05:31] <alraune> brokendatapoint: any changes ?
[05:31] <didt> I'm running ubuntu and I can't copy files from one drive to another drive because I keep getting an error saying that I don't have permission. Help?
[05:32] <Seven_Six_Two> didt, I replied already
[05:32] <Jacenzzz> @alraune I guess...its my laptop. It's a dualboot system but because GRUB is screwed up i cant get into windows either. I have a win7 CD and I ran startup repairs but its still not working
[05:32] <ice799> Hi there. Does ubuntu have a list of who maintains which ubuntu packages? Are some packages just pulled directly from debian and automatically rebuilt for ubuntu? I'm curious because I've taken over the release of a project that has an ubuntu package and I am trying to figure out how to alert the ubuntu package maintainer that a new release is coming.
[05:32] <didt> Seven_Six_Two. Didn't see it. While running ubuntu live CD is not possible to get permissions to external drives?
[05:32] <stellarnight> Jacenzzz: I'm not sure if this is related to your problem but check it out. https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MacBook5-2/Maverick/#Basic%20Installation%20Instructions
[05:32] <weed_up> anyone have some documents descripting the struction of UFS boot sector
[05:33] <didt> Seven_Six_two It's hard to see when someone responds to me because I'm using a web IRC chat because Ubuntu live CD doesn't have xchat anymore. :(
[05:33] <Seven_Six_Two> didt, open a terminal and type  mount     look for "r" or "rw" on the applicable lines. If your drive/partition isn't listed, you have to mount it
[05:33] <alraune> Jacenzzz: sure,win7 won't fix grub, and the box you're talking off now ?
[05:33] <Sameyeam> I can no longer get NTFS config tool to open thus my 3 drives fail to load on boot. How can I fix this?
[05:34] <Seven_Six_Two> didt, how much memory do you have? You can install stuff from live cd if you have enough memory or (I think) a swap drive that it can detect
[05:34] <ferris_> weed_up, if you have both ubuntu and winblows then you could probably get away with just installing the grub boot loader...
[05:34] <Seven_Six_Two> didt, *install stuff while running the live cd
[05:34] <Jacenzzz> Its not a Mac. I dont mind losing my Ubuntu...I can reinstall that anyday. I just need to get win7 back
[05:34] <weed_up> i really  tired in reinstalling systems- -
[05:34] <didt> Seven_Six_Two Yes it's only certain files, not whole directories (I don't think). I'm not sure if the partition is mounted RW. I know that I can read a lot of the files but some of them I can't.
[05:36] <Jacenzzz> @alraune Its not a Mac. I dont mind losing my Ubuntu...I can reinstall that anyday. I just need to get win7 back
[05:36] <Seven_Six_Two> didt, are you trying to go from an internal to internal? How big are the source and destination? Are the permissions and owner the same as at least 1 successfully copied file?
[05:36] <stellarnight> Jacenzzz: Fair enough. I'm not sure how to fix GRUB. I've never had any success reinstalling it once it gets messed up.
[05:36] <alraune> Jacenzzz: then go to #windows and eplained how fixmbr works
[05:36] <shmup> so this might not be the right place, but can someone point me in the right direction for getting two separate wallpapers for my extended display?
[05:37] <Jacenzzz> appreciate it!
[05:37] <weed_up> ferris_: my two systems are in two separate HDD
[05:37] <didt> Seven_Six_Two The source drive is a 1TB internal. And the destination is an external 640gb USB drive.
[05:37] <shmup> i have the extended display going. just want two different wallpapers ;x
[05:37] <alraune> Jacenzzz: also can try supergrubdisk
[05:37] <ferris_> Jacenzzz, is winblows listed in the boot loader?
[05:37] <stellarnight> shmup: That is an interesting question.
[05:37] <shmup> i've done it on windows, quite easily
[05:38] <alraune> Jacenzzz: http://www.supergrubdisk.org/
[05:38] <shmup> i'm sure it's been done on ubuntu
[05:38] <Sameyeam> Is there a way to have my 3 NTFS drives mount automatically at boot?
[05:38] <Jacenzzz> I dont see anything in the bootloader....
[05:38] <stellarnight> shmup: Right click-> change desktop background doesn't work I gather?
[05:38] <Jacenzzz> it just says "error: no such partition" "grub-rescue>"
[05:38] <alraune> Sameyeam: put 'em in fstab
[05:38] <didt> Seven_Six_Two the permissions of all of the files appear to be the same 1000 USER Access Read and Write.
[05:38] <Seven_Six_Two> didt, I've seen that error when I ran out of space. Try emptying your trash, and ensure you're not out of space. All drives actually hold less than advertised because different bases are used in advertised sizes and actual sized
[05:38] <shmup> stellarnight, nope. changes both of 'em. :/
[05:38] <jrmcm> how do i install adobe flash player 10.xx
[05:39] <shmup> stellar, i'm considering trying a wallpaper with double the width
[05:39] <alraune> !fstab | Sameyeam
[05:39] <Seven_Six_Two> didt, and of course formatting takes up some of the space too
[05:39] <shmup> to see how it handles, by default
[05:39] <shmup> stellarnight *
[05:39] <didt> Seven_Six_Two My drives have plenty of empty space on them.
[05:39] <weed_up> ferris_:i need some documents descripting the struction of UFS boot sector，so that i，maybe，i can fix it by winhex
[05:40] <stellarnight> shmup: does your wall paper currently stretch across all desktops or display the same picture multiple times once per desktop?
[05:40] <Sameyeam> alraune, thanks.
[05:40] <didt> Seven_Six_Two - After I get the permissions error I can still transfer other files, so it doesn't have anything to do with size. Most of the files are about the same size 500mb-1Gb
[05:40] <Sameyeam> ubottu, thanks
[05:40] <night> freenode means what guy
[05:40] <stellarnight> Jacenzzz: When you first boot up do you get a boot loader screen?
[05:40] <shmup> stellarnight, i know what you're thinking. naw, it doesn't stretch it currently. but that might be the ticket, though. finding a way to display the same background across both
[05:40] <shmup> stellarnight, stretched.
[05:40] <alraune> Sameyeam: can pastebin your work on fstab, if unsure
[05:40] <Seven_Six_Two> didt, what is the filesystems of the two drives?
[05:41] <alraune> !paste
[05:41] <didt> Seven_Six_Two The permissiosn issue is somwhat random. Some files transfer and other files dont'.
[05:41] <ferris_> Jacenzzz, get yourself a windows boot disc and boot to a prompt run fixmbr then reinstall ubuntu
[05:41] <Jacenzzz> @stellarnight no...I can get into BIOS though
[05:41] <didt> Seven_Six_Two EXT4 and NTFS I'm pretty sure.
[05:41] <Seven_Six_Two> didt, ntfs is destination?
[05:41] <didt> Seven_Six_Two NTFS is the destination, yes.
[05:42] <ferris_> Jaceenzzz, try booting into windows first, but that is what I would try first.
[05:42] <Jacenzzz> @ferris_ cant boot into windows
[05:42] <stellarnight> shmup: have you tried compiz? Maybe there is a plugin that will allow it there.
[05:42] <shmup> stellarnight, it worked :)
[05:42] <shmup> stellarnight, i just have to set the background to "span" in appearance preferences
[05:42] <shmup> instead of stretch/center, etc
[05:42] <Jordan_U> Jacenzzz: What happens when you try boot from CD/USB? What CD did you try? What did you use to make the bootable USB?
[05:43] <ferris_> Jacenzzz, boot using the disc into a prompt and then run fixmbr
[05:43] <stellarnight> shmup: Nice! Good to know.
[05:43] <ferris_> Jacenzzz, then after running fixmbr try to boot into windows
[05:43] <Jacenzzz> @Jordan_U CD doesnt work, USB used to work now it gets stuck booting.
[05:43] <didt> Seven_Six_Two Does it have something to do with the fact that I'm running from a live CD instead of an installation of Ubuntu?
[05:43] <Jacenzzz> @ferris_ will do
[05:44] <night> guys i use sony vaio laptop and my compize is not have full plugins i need  more plugins how
[05:44] <stellarnight> Jacenzzz: do you have a live cd that will boot? You might be able to reinstall GRUB there and recover both installs.
[05:44] <Jordan_U> Jacenzzz: How did you try to create the bootable USB? What exactly happens when you try to boot from it?
[05:44] <Seven_Six_Two> didt, ok. I thought maybe file size limit, but ntfs doesn't suffer as far as I know. Are the file sizes similar for all rejected copies? Do the same files always fail?
[05:44] <didt> Seven_Six_Two Basically, I need to get the files off of this drive so that I can reformat it to NTFS.
[05:44] <Jacenzzz> @Jordan_U friend made the USB for me...I have used it before but now it gets stuck when searching for the partitions
[05:45] <Suit_Of_Sables> hey gang! Is bit streaming HD audio possible under linux? Or do I have yet another reason to hate DRM?
[05:45] <ferris_> Jordan_U, check to see if your system can boot from a USB device before going through the trouble... check your cmos
[05:45] <Seven_Six_Two> didt, The live cd shouldn't affect it, you obviously have the ntfs driver.
[05:45] <didt> Seven_Six_Two Yes, they always fail to transfer in RSYNC and in Ubuntu (Copy and Paste). And they are all pretty much the same size.
[05:45] <Jacenzzz> @ferris_  how do I get into the window terminal?
[05:45] <Seven_Six_Two> didt, are they particularly large?
[05:45] <ferris_> you will need a boot disc
[05:46] <Jacenzzz> i have one
[05:46] <ubuXubu> run>cmd
[05:46] <Jacenzzz> I'm at the system recovery options
[05:46] <didt> 600-700mb. SHouldn't be a problem considering I transfered files as large as 7.7GB in RSYNC.
[05:47] <bbranigin> hey, can somone explain what the nice collumn in  system monitor means if it has a negative value?
[05:47] <ferris_> Jacenzzz,  it has been a while but you should get some sort of menu list to choose from...
[05:47] <Seven_Six_Two> didt, no, that wouldn't be a problem. I was thinking that it could be fat32 instead
[05:47] <night> my compize has not complete plugins i need more
[05:47] <ferris_> if you google it there are instructions on that
[05:48] <Seven_Six_Two> didt, do you see any error messages in the terminal, or any output from dmesg  (or rsync log if there is one)
[05:48] <wheredoi> where do i put the icon theme package i just downloaded
[05:48] <ubuXubu> Jacenzzz, wut are u trying to do
[05:48] <Seven_Six_Two> ubuXubu, I think he needs to  chkdsk /fixmbr
[05:48] <stellarnight> Jacenzzz: A bit off topic for here but check this: http://www.ehow.com/how_4836283_repair-mbr-windows.html
[05:48] <Jacenzzz> Startup Repair, System restore, system image recovery, windows memory diagnostic, and command prompt....the command promt wont run fixmbr
[05:49] <Seven_Six_Two> ubuXubu, fdisk /fixmbr          maybe
[05:49] <ubuXubu> so he bkew out his windows bootloader?
[05:49] <didt> Seven_Six_Two I backed up a bunch of files last month with rSync from the same source and destination drives. Not a problem. Now that I'm running in a Live CD it's not working.
[05:49] <ubuXubu> blew*
[05:49] <night> seven six two i have compize but it has not complete plugins i need more
[05:49] <ferris_> ubuXubu, grub is screwed up, he wants to get win7 back, so I told him to boot to a command prompt and run fixmbr and then try to boot into windows, and then reinstall ubuntu
[05:50] <ferris_> ubuXubu, he doesn't care about reinstalling ubuntu... just getting win7 back
[05:50] <didt> Seven_Six_Two I have a feeling that If I reinstall Ubuntu I'll be able to access the files. I have no evidence of that, but I bet it's true.
[05:50] <ubuXubu> ferris, so he has windows on c drive and ubuntu beside it but he cant boot to windows?
[05:50] <ferris_> no, it is on a separate drive
[05:50] <Seven_Six_Two> didt, ok that narrows it down. do the files have any special characters? ntfs is slightly more restrictive, and I'm not sure what error you'd get from rsync
[05:51] <ferris_> if I am understanding correctly
[05:51] <Jacenzzz> @stellarnight how was that offtopic???? o.O THANKS
[05:51] <ubuXubu> has he backed up all his files?
[05:51] <didt> Permission denied (13)
[05:51] <Jacenzzz> I put ubuntu into D:
[05:51] <ubuXubu> i doubt he has 2 hard drives
[05:51] <didt> Seven_Six_Two Permission denied (13)
[05:51] <stellarnight> Jacenzzz: Off topic in that it was unrelated to ubuntu. :P Hope it helps.
[05:51] <Seven_Six_Two> didt, unless there's a bug on the cd you have, there's no reason it wouldn't work just like it would from an install. You could try a different live cd if you have another.
[05:51] <night> guys please help me
[05:51] <Jacenzzz> not 2 physical...just 2 partitions
[05:51] <ubuXubu> ok
[05:52] <Jordan_U> ubuXubu: ferris_: He's using wubi. It's a known bug in wubi that unfortunately has not been fixed that makes windows and ubuntu unbootable.
[05:52] <ferris_> ubuXubu, I am not sure... I am not anywhere near him unless he is OC
[05:52] <ubuXubu> ok good then wubi is just a file run insdie windows
[05:52] <ubuXubu> he did not partition at all
[05:52] <Seven_Six_Two> night, don't target ppl with questions right away, ask the channel. You don't need to ask to ask, or declare that you need help. everyone here is either helping or needs help as well.
[05:53] <ferris_> Jordan_U, thanks. I have not heard of that yet... I have never installed linux inside windows... I give Linux its own partition
[05:53] <ubuXubu> now. listen...if he doesnt care about wubi(ubuntu), we do a recovery if he has backed up all his important data.
[05:53] <night> ok seven six two i have not complete compiz plugins
[05:53] <Seven_Six_Two> didt, how many directories deep are the failing files?
[05:53] <night> how i get more plugins
[05:53] <ubuXubu> Jacenzzz, so you did not use wubi or you did?
[05:54] <ferris_> ubuXubu, you have it from here, I will sit back and learn
[05:54] <Jacenzzz> ubuXubu, I did use Wubi :/
[05:54] <ubuXubu> ok Jacenzzz
[05:54] <lonejack> Hi, does anyone uses sony vaio on Ubuntu or is aware of a compatibility list for linux?
[05:54] <didt> Seven_Six_Two NO, there's not special characters in the file names. And there's no logical connection between the files that wont transfer. They have different extensions, different names, regular characters. Some .avi files transfered and others did not. One of the files that didn't transfer was a PDF, the rest were AVI.
[05:54] <Seven_Six_Two> night, there should be some available in synaptic. Or you can visit the compiz website for more downloads complete with install instructions
[05:54] <ubuXubu> so then u did not partition your drive at all unless you have other OS's?
[05:54] <Jacenzzz> Nope...just threw ubuntu into D:
[05:55] <ubuXubu> Jacenzzz, do you have important data on this computer?
[05:55] <stellarnight> night: Have you tried System->Administration->Synaptic Package Manager?
[05:55] <ferris_> lonejack, I had a vaio... but it was quite old. I had several issues with it... mostly wifi and graphics
[05:55] <alraune> lonejack: http://www.linux-laptop.net/
[05:55] <didt> Seven_Six_Two They all have the same exact permissions.
[05:55] <Jacenzzz> yes...its my school computer
[05:55] <Jacenzzz> I have windows backed up though... I'm not completely retarded
[05:55] <ferris_> lonejack, I might be able to help. what is the issue?
[05:55] <ubuXubu> can you back up your data to a remote drive Jacenzzz
[05:56] <didt> Seven_Six_Two I'm not the "owner" of the files so I can't change the permissions. How will I ever be able to change the permissions and read these files?
[05:56] <Jacenzzz> my last backup is a two weeks old...it has all of the important stuff...its on an external though
[05:56] <lonejack> ferris_, I'would like to buy one this type: http://support.vaio.sony.eu/computing/vaio/specifications/index.aspx?m=VGN-FS285B
[05:56] <lonejack> ferris_, is old
[05:57] <lonejack> ferris_, but for 100 Euro
[05:57] <ubuXubu> Jacenzzz, if this computer was bought new it may still have the original built in hidden recovery partition
[05:57] <lonejack> alraune, thnak you
[05:57] <ubuXubu> Jacenzzz, what type of computer is it
[05:57] <emma> is there a 'best' laptop for Ubuntu/Linux?
[05:57] <Seven_Six_Two> didt, sudo chmod 777 filename.ext   should let you change them, or you should be able to   sudo username   to switch to that user.
[05:57] <didt> Seven_Six_Two I've read from these files in several linux distrobutions over the last 2 months or so. (I'm a bit of a distro hopper.) So I don't have any clue what is causing this problem.
[05:57] <alraune> lonejack: np, snack you :)
[05:57] <Jacenzzz> ASUS G51JX-A1
[05:58] <ubuXubu> Jacenzzz, did u get it new
[05:58] <didt> Seven_SIx_Two The failing files are the same levels deep as the successful files.
[05:58] <Jacenzzz> yep back in April
[05:58] <emma> Is there a best laptop for Ubuntu/Linux?
[05:58] <histo> !best | emma
[05:58] <ubuXubu> Jacenzzz, on an asus the recovery partition is accessed by turning on the computer and tapping the f9 key over and over
[05:58] <emma> oh geezus i should have known.
[05:58] <ubuXubu> i have an asus also
[05:58] <alraune> emma:no,but dell is reported to work well, as others, espececially pre-installed brands
[05:58] <histo> emma: you can get a hardware compatibility list
[05:58] <didt> Seven_Six_Two /drive/dir/dir/file
[05:59] <didt> Seven_Six_Two So, they're not deep at all.
[05:59] <ubuXubu> Jacenzzz, then u will see it boot to recovery..do not choose restore choose recovery.
[05:59] <alraune> emma:to me also thinkpads and medions did fine
[05:59] <rww> emma: Canonical's HCL list tends to be useful for me: http://webapps.ubuntu.com/certification/
[05:59] <rww> !hcl | emma: this might be, also
[05:59] <ferris_> lonejack... http://ubuntufs.wordpress.com/about/  google is a good friend for this
[06:00] <Jacenzzz> ubuXubu, F9 didnt do anything
[06:00] <alraune> emma: look here :http://tuxmobil.org/
[06:00] <ubuXubu> Jacenzzz, try it again from the off position
[06:00] <histo> alraune: why are you doing that here?
[06:00] <histo> emma: hold on I'll get you list
[06:00] <didt> Seven_Six_Two Can I set permissions recursively in all of the sub dirs? How would I do that/
[06:00] <ubuXubu> tap it rapidly the moment u turn it on Jacenzzz
[06:01] <realeyes> hey guys
[06:01] <Jacenzzz> ubuXubu, did that....still didnt do anything
[06:01] <ferris_> lonejack... there are some issues but with patience it looks like they can be overcome... and now that 10.10 is out you may have very few issues
[06:01] <realeyes> how do I install java on Ubuntu?
[06:01] <realeyes> Java for firefox?
[06:01] <ubuXubu> well then what happens when you tap f9? Jacenzzz
[06:01] <histo> emma: https://help.ubuntu.com/10.04/hardware/C/index.html
[06:01] <ferris_> realeyes, ubuntu 10.10?
[06:01] <Jacenzzz> ubuXubu, goes into grub rescue>
[06:01] <lonejack> ferris_, I'm convinced
[06:01] <realeyes> yes
[06:02] <histo> emma: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LaptopTestingTeam
[06:02] <lonejack> ferris_, thank you
[06:02] <alraune> histo: question was which lappi works good with linux
[06:02] <ubuXubu> Jacenzzz, well ok is there tools offered to rubuild your grub
[06:02] <Seven_Six_Two> didt, damn. Ok. I think I am stumped. I read about an rsync bug that started 4 deep. first google result for "rsync Permission denied (13)"   you can set recursively with    sudo chmod  -R 777 /topdirectorytochange
[06:02] <Jacenzzz> Super Grub disc?
[06:02] <nit-wit> ubuXubu,  just logged on whats up
[06:03] <realeyes> ferris_: yes.
[06:03] <ubuXubu> need to recovery windpows
[06:03] <intrader> Hi, I have a FAT USB stick that contains a Smalltalk installation that worked on both Windows XP and ubuntu until Nov 10. After that date, now I am not able to open Pharo.sh as Maverick attempt to open it as an open office document.
[06:03] <ubuXubu> says he only did a wubi install
[06:03] <didt> Seven_Six_Two But this doesn't happen with just RSYNC.
[06:03] <ferris_> realeyes, go to java and get to the download and there will be instructions for it
[06:03] <ubuXubu> says he backed up all files
[06:03] <ferris_> then you need to enable it in firefox
[06:03] <nit-wit> ubuXubu,  build the windows partition first install and loading grub to the mbr is easy what grub are you using waht distro
[06:04] <Seven_Six_Two> realeyes, java installer should be available in synaptic, possibly under restricted packages metapackage
[06:04] <realeyes> i know there are just a few commands you can put in the terminal
[06:04] <ubuXubu> it is Jacenzzz nit-wit
[06:04] <Seven_Six_Two> didt, oh that's right. what were you using in the gui?
[06:04] <nit-wit> ubuXubu,  build the partition=ntfs with gparted first
[06:04] <ubuXubu> mine asus is fine
[06:04] <didt> Seven_Six_Two Thanks for that command. I think that helped. I didn't get an error when it ran. So I hope the permissions are changed.
[06:04] <ubuXubu> nit-wit, right now he booted to grub recovery
[06:05] <didt> Seven_Six_Two I was using cut and paste in the right click menu.
[06:05] <ubuXubu> Jacenzzz, tell us where u are at now
[06:05] <Seven_Six_Two> didt, hopefully. what program though? nautilus? konqueror?
[06:05] <nit-wit> ubuXubu, thans I will look at the logs here
[06:05] <didt> Seven_Six_Two Looks like it's working now. rSync.
[06:05] <Jacenzzz> I'm trying to repair the win7 MBR with my win7 bootdisc
[06:05] <didt> Seven_Six_Two Nautilus.
[06:05] <oldschool> mneptok you around ?
[06:06] <Seven_Six_Two> didt, oh ok. well if it's fixed, bonus!
[06:06] <didt> Seven_Six_Two The files are transfering.
[06:06] <alraune> intrader: make it executable and launch from terminal,also rightclick open with > terminal
[06:06] <didt> Seven_Six_Two Yeah, it's fixed. Thanks. I should have just asked for that command in the first playce. ;) Had I known that was all I needed.
[06:07] <wrektjet> hello. which log file contains the events for shutdown?
[06:07] <ubuXubu> Jacenzzz, we will stand by if you have more questions
[06:07] <Seven_Six_Two> didt, lol, np. you know to use   ls -al   to see more in terminal, right?
[06:07] <nit-wit> Jacenzzz,  from the booted W7 in the recovery console  bootrec.exe /fixmbr
[06:07] <alraune> wrektjet: /var/log/syslog
[06:08] <intrader> alraune, I don't know how to make 'it executable and launch from terminsl' - rightclick on the file opens it as Open Office
[06:08] <nit-wit> Jacenzzz,  the auto repair works fine if the boot flag is on the correct partition
[06:08] <realeyes> if I have 10.10; whats some good stuff to do to it using the terminal? :P
[06:08] <alraune> intrader: open a terminal and cd to the file's folder
[06:09] <airlynx> I'm using Ubuntu Studio 10.04 which was upgraded from 8.04, but I've always had issues with the audio shutting off while doing anything but using JACK, any program that doesn't use JACK will run audio for a little while, then the audio shuts off, but the program still runs, can someone please help me troubleshoot this?
[06:09] <Seven_Six_Two> intrader, is the executable bit still set?
[06:09] <alraune> !manual | realeyes
[06:09] <intrader> alraune, I am there in the terminal
[06:09] <nit-wit> ubuXubu,  sorry to intrude
[06:09] <wrektjet> alraune, would there be a line there for "shutdown" of some kind? (i came home and found my comp off trying to figure out y)
[06:09] <alraune> intrader: sudo chmode +x YourFile.sh
[06:09] <ubuXubu> nit-wit, no sweat i dont care how we fix it just so it gets done
[06:09] <Jordan_U> Jacenzzz: Once you get into Ubuntu I can tell you how to prevent this from happening again.
[06:10] <nit-wit> ubuXubu,  thts the way I feel
[06:10] <Seven_Six_Two> intrader, sudo chmod +ux yourfile.sh
[06:10] <Jacenzzz> @Jordan_U dont use Wubi? lol
[06:10] <Jordan_U> Jacenzzz: That's the simplest solution, yes :)
[06:10] <Jacenzzz> @nit-wit + ubuXubu I'm in win7
[06:10] <Jacenzzz> booted up like a champ
[06:11] <nit-wit> Jacenzzz,  was the command that fixed it
[06:11] <alraune> wrektjet: you can see bootup/shutdown if logging is enabled  there, also dmesg might be possible
[06:11] <ubuXubu> Jacenzzz, i am also have an asus with w7 and ubuntu installed by wubi
[06:11] <intrader> Seven_Six_Two, no, I can change it either in terminal or gui
[06:11] <Jordan_U> Jacenzzz: Could you mark yourself as affected by this bug? I think it needs more attention.
[06:11] <Jacenzzz> @nit-wit yes...I was told the wrong comand for mbr
[06:11] <intrader> alraune, '+ux' invalid mode.
[06:11] <ubuXubu> thats why i know f9 boot to the built in recovery partition
[06:11] <Jacenzzz> @Jordan_U most definitely!
[06:11] <nit-wit> right now with wubi there are grub updates so be careful
[06:12] <Jordan_U> Jacenzzz: Here is the bug report: https://bugs.launchpad.net/wubi/+bug/610898
[06:12] <ubuXubu> apparanty his built in recovery is gone so he is using the disks
[06:12] <Jacenzzz> ubuXubu, I dunno either...mean and Ubuntu always end up having fights like these. first time my GRUB was ever screwed up though
[06:12] <Seven_Six_Two> intrader, I said +ux,  alraune said chmode (it's chmod)
[06:12] <nit-wit> any wubi user remember that command it will reload the mbr
[06:12] <alraune> Seven_Six_Two: thanks for watching
[06:13] <ubuXubu> well if u backed up data we can do complete reinstall as a worse case scenario
[06:13] <Jacenzzz> @nit-wit already saved it in a text file haha
[06:13] <alraune> intrader: sudo chmod +x YourFile.sh
[06:13] <nullkuhl> hello..
[06:13] <nullkuhl> how do i end X
[06:13] <nullkuhl> ?
[06:13] <Seven_Six_Two> intrader, and you can do it from gui if either you're owner of file or you start file manager as root
[06:13] <Seven_Six_Two> alraune, ;)
[06:13] <Jacenzzz> ubuXubu, I was completely repaired to do that. I do frequent backups just in case ;)
[06:14] <nit-wit> Jacenzzz,  there is a whole command set for rebuilding other part sif you go to the UF and PM me as wilee-nilee I will give them to you
[06:14] <ubuXubu> are you having any luck with nit-wit instruction to repair the boot loader
[06:14] <nit-wit> ubuX
[06:14] <nit-wit> ubuX i think he is in
[06:15] <ubuXubu> cool
[06:15] <intrader> alraune, '+x' eventually leads to getting Permission Denied
[06:15] <con-man> anyone know of good DJ software in linux?  I know there is nothing compared to what you can get in Windows but still
[06:15] <jerich> anyone know how to change log in screen in 10.10
[06:15] <Seven_Six_Two> con-man, I tried mixxx and it was neat. so was djplay (I think I got the names right)
[06:15] <theorem> jerich: yes
[06:15] <dan2> does ubuntu provide an unstripped vmlinux object for use with oprofile?
[06:16] <alraune> intrader: ? sudo chown $USER YourFile.sh
[06:16] <theorem> jerich: it was a mighty pain in the ass to find how to
[06:16] <psycho_oreos> con-man, don't know but you might want to have a look at the stuff that comes with ubuntu studio
[06:16] <Seven_Six_Two> con-man, you might want to look into using JACK, but let me warn you, you'll have a lot of reading to do.
[06:16] <nit-wit> jerich,  what are you looking for a background
[06:16] <jerich> wish it was like prevoius versions of ubuntu or any linux release's for that matter \
[06:16] <intrader> Seven_Six_Two, when I stick the USB in a window opens automatically without sudo permissions and therefore the gui is not working to change the execute bit. This used to until Nov 10.
[06:16] <Jacenzzz> @nit-wit what do you mean rebuilding other parts?
[06:17] <theorem> jerich: it doesn;t work like 10.04 ??
[06:17] <jerich> was hoping to huck a penguin on there
[06:17] <nit-wit> jerich, I have used burg but thatis a grub replacement actually grub in drag
[06:17] <Seven_Six_Two> intrader, and is the file owner different on the file than your current username for some reason?
[06:17] <theorem> http://pastebin.ca/2000745
[06:17] <theorem> jerich: see if that works for you
[06:17] <nit-wit> Jacenzzz, some time people will delete the /boo/bcd part by removing a partition
[06:17] <stellarnight> 3,2,1, good night everyone. Thanks for all the support. :)
[06:18] <Seven_Six_Two> intrader, and can you not do it from a terminal?
[06:18] <jerich> try the grub? lol
[06:18] <nit-wit> Jacenzzz, /boot/bcd*
[06:18] <AbhiJit> anyone can tell me the fdisk syntax for partitioning full drive?
[06:18] <theorem> AbhiJit: use cfdisk
[06:18] <intrader> alraune, I get '-rw-r--r-- 1 intrader intrader 189 2010-04-07 06:46 Pharo.sh'
[06:18] <AbhiJit> theorem, ok
[06:19] <intrader> Seven_Six_Two, no
[06:19] <Jacenzzz> I'm trying to uninstall Ubuntu now so I can do a fresh install not using Wubi but it wont uninstall....
[06:19] <airlynx> I'm using Ubuntu Studio 10.04 which was upgraded from 8.04, but I've always had issues with the audio shutting off while doing anything but using JACK, any program that doesn't use JACK will run audio for a little while, then the audio shuts off, but the program still runs, how do I troubleshoot this?
[06:19] <intrader> alraune, Seven_Six_Two, the volume is FAT
[06:19] <jerich> use a boot disk to format it
[06:19] <nit-wit> Jacenzzz,  use the uninstall in the wubi folder
[06:19] <jerich> airlynx use a boot disk to format
[06:20] <alraune> intrader: ah, so perms then
[06:20] <airlynx> very funny jerich
[06:20] <Seven_Six_Two> intrader, out of my depth. I don't know how permissions are handled on fat
[06:20] <alraune> intrader: ah, so no* perms then
[06:20] <Jacenzzz> @nit-wit I did o.O
[06:20] <alraune> intrader: ./YourFile.sh
[06:20] <nit-wit> Jacenzzz,  so what do you see going on
[06:20] <Seven_Six_Two> intrader, while in the same directory, that is
[06:21] <intrader> alraune, Seven_Six_Two, it used to work until Nov 10. ./Pharo.sh - permission denied
[06:21] <Seven_Six_Two> ;)
[06:21] <airlynx> I've tried looking online, but my problem is too general to google, I get all sorts of stuff but nothing very relative, I need some help figuring out what the problem is
[06:21] <krunal> what irc app do u guys prefer to use
[06:21] <Jacenzzz> @nit-wit error excecuting command=C:\Windows\sysnative\bcdedit.exe  /delete
[06:21] <jerich> airlynx so all your doing is wipeing clean?
[06:21] <alraune> intrader: try prefix sudo, then find out where it wants to write to
[06:21] <nit-wit> Jacenzzz,  are you in admin
[06:21] <zen> 10.04 + nvidia resolution issue: When resolution settings are not correct during boot, does it just end up in terminal or show appropriate message? Because I tried commiting the nvidia generated xorg.conf for 1024x768, this resolution works perfectly fine with vesa driver. In my case the when using nvidia xorg for 1024x768 it just hangs to terminal while F8 terminal shows "Checking battery states [OK]"
[06:21] <airlynx> jerich, I think you have me confused
[06:22] <Jacenzzz> @nit-wit yep
[06:22] <airlynx> jerich, I'm having issues with audio crashing in my apps
[06:22] <jerich> airlynx probly
[06:22] <jerich> oh my bad lol
[06:22] <intrader> alraune, I have tried - I don't 'know where it wants to write'
[06:22] <shmup> does ubuntu come with adobe flash? i'm trying to remove it so i can test lightspark
[06:22] <nit-wit> Jacenzzz,  try the remove programs in the standard program remover forget the name
[06:22] <shmup> all i see in the package manager is "flashlugin-installer"
[06:22] <shmup> flashplugin*
[06:23] <alraune> zen: try sudo nvidia-xconfig from out of x, restart gdm then
[06:23] <krunal> ubuntu support usb 3.0 ?
[06:23] <intrader> alraune, Seven_Six_Two, behavior changed after Nov 10
[06:23] <shmup> right clicking on a youtube vid and going to properties shows "flash 10.1" but i cannot find it
[06:23] <alraune> intrader: alsodoesn't work with sudo ?
[06:24] <airlynx> Okay, more specific question, if I think PulseAudio is causing the problem, can I remove any/all PulseAudio packages and if I do so will the system automatically revert to ALSA?
[06:24] <nit-wit> Jacenzzz,  I know very few windows commands
[06:24] <Seven_Six_Two> intrader, you mentioned that...  Does it run from a local drive? Is it too big to pastebin the .sh file? Do you remember updating, installing or removing *anything*?
[06:24] <Seven_Six_Two> airlynx, for the most part it will be ok
[06:24] <Lancelot> is there a channel where I can connect with xchat?
[06:24] <Jacenzzz> @nit-wit since its obviosly corrupt, can I just delete the files?
[06:25] <intrader> alraune, that is correct, it does not work with sudo
[06:25] <shmup> Lancelot, not sure what you mean.
[06:25] <Seven_Six_Two> airlynx, you will lose your panel volume control, but there are others
[06:25] <alraune> airlynx: pulse is like a proxy for sound, while oss or alsa provide the drivers
[06:25] <ubuXubu> https://wiki.ubuntu.com/WubiGuide
[06:25] <alraune> intrader: no idea then
[06:25] <shmup> In xchat you'd just /server irc.freenode.net
[06:25] <shmup> and /join #ubuntu
[06:25] <airlynx> alraune, I've never used
[06:25] <strent> !x11
[06:25] <Lancelot> shmup, I can't connect to irc//irc.adelais.net using xchat, but I can with chatzilla
[06:25] <airlynx> alraune, I've never used PulseAudio before upgrading to 10.04
[06:25] <nit-wit> Jacenzzz, probably but your in windows with no ubuntu or other files open correct
[06:25] <shmup> Lancelot, try just connecting to irc.freenode.net
[06:26] <rww> Lancelot: remove the irc:// from the front; you just want the irc.adelais.net part
[06:26] <Jacenzzz> @nit-wit correct
[06:26] <Lancelot> okay
[06:26] <shmup> Lancelot, and what rww said. :P
[06:26] <Seven_Six_Two> strent, doesn't everything get restarted with sudo service programname restart
[06:26] <intrader> Seven_Six_Two, the problem is that I can't set Pharo.sh as executable in a FAT volume, and therefore I can execute it. Someone mentioned to mount the USB as executable, but I don't know how.
[06:26] <Avasz> what does this error mean? W: GPG error: http://ppa.launchpad.net maverick Release: The following signatures couldn't be verified because the public key is not available: NO_PUBKEY D0AFF96872D340A3
[06:26] <alraune> airlynx: maybe haaven't realized, was there by default before
[06:26] <Lancelot> rrw, well it's an improvement...
[06:26] <Avasz> i get that when i do apt-get update and i cant install any applications
[06:26] <intrader> alraune, thanks anyway!
[06:26] <nit-wit> Jacenzzz,  that is strange I have installed wubi just to check it out, it always was removed easily
[06:27] <strent> Seven_Six_Two: huh?
[06:27] <alraune> Avasz: need to install the pgp-key
[06:27] <rww> ubottu: gpgerr | Avasz
[06:27] <shmup> What is the flash package called that Ubuntu comes with? 10.10
[06:27] <Seven_Six_Two> intrader, type   mount   in terminal. is usb mounted rw?  (not sure if you mentioned before) you can't mount executable
[06:27] <saganbyte> Hi there :)
[06:27] <rww> shmup: flashplugin-installer
[06:27] <shmup> rww, I removed it.
[06:27] <shmup> I can still watch Youtube vids.
[06:27] <Lancelot> rww, my connection is getting refused, I think it's trying to go to port 0 >.>
[06:27] <shmup> Right clicking < properties still reveals Flash 10.1
[06:27] <nit-wit> Jacenzzz, if you remove the file the bootloader will still be in the windows startup but that can be removed
[06:27] <Seven_Six_Two> strent, you called ubottu about restarting services
[06:27] <Jacenzzz> @nit-wit  its always removed easily for me too...just everything had to be difficult this time
[06:27] <Avasz> how to find that GPG keywords for the repositories?
[06:27] <saganbyte> Somehow I m not able to affect the power management settings to 'never' put the computer to sleep
[06:27] <saganbyte> I m using Ubuntu 10.10
[06:28] <rww> Avasz: try D0AFF96872D340A3
[06:28] <Avasz> ok
[06:28] <strent> i dont think so :s
[06:28] <krunal> anybody having pidgin issue with MSN?
[06:28] <rww> Avasz: In the future, you should probably use add-apt-repository command instead of adding the line manually.
[06:28] <nit-wit> Jacenzzz, I would run a chkdsk /r
[06:28] <alraune> Avasz: sudo apt-key adv --keyserver keyserver.ubuntu.com --recv-keys D0AFF96872D340A3
[06:28] <Seven_Six_Two> shmup, there are .so files in your browser plugins directory. did you remove or completely remove?
[06:28] <intrader> Seven_Six_Two, as soon as I stick the USB in, a window opens showing the folders in the USB. I don't have a chance to tell it that it is executable.
[06:28] <shmup> Seven_Six_Two, I did not. Will do, thanks. :)
[06:28] <rww> Lancelot: huh. Put port 6667 on the end, then
[06:28] <strent> krunal: see http://squidsrants.blogspot.com/2010/11/pidgin-msn-and-other-protocols.html
[06:29] <rww> Lancelot: /connect irc.whateveritwas 6667
[06:29] <alraune> Avasz: sudo apt-get update,  still error ?
[06:29] <Avasz> ok
[06:29] <Avasz> wait.. i am doing
[06:29] <alraune> y
[06:29] <Avasz> alraune, no errors. thanks.
[06:29] <nit-wit> Jacenzzz,  takes a while but it never hurts to run these every so often
[06:29] <Lancelot> rww, still going for port 0
[06:29] <airlynx> listening to Pandora.com right now, the audio is working for now, but it keeps doing strange things, like it's being interrupted
[06:29] <alraune> Avasz: spread the world
[06:29] <Jacenzzz> @nit-wit  I do them every week...
[06:29] <Avasz> alraune, but still.. i cant install applications
[06:30] <rww> Lancelot: try asking in the #xchat channel, assuming nobody else here has any ideas
[06:30] <alraune> Avasz: as ?
[06:30] <Avasz> mplayer
[06:30] <nit-wit> Jacenzzz,  you are a good windows user now

[06:33] <Jacenzzz> its been a fun learning experience I will say...favorite grub command is "hello" haha
[06:33] <Seven_Six_Two> Avasz, what are the unmet dependencies? do you have extra repositories enabled? restricted extras?
[06:33] <nit-wit> Jacenzzz, actually the W7 forums are not bad all gui no command line but they are trying
[06:33] <Avasz> Seven_Six_Two, yes
[06:33] <alraune> Avasz: sudo apt-get upgrade && sudo apt-get install mplayer vlc
[06:34] <nit-wit> Jacenzzz, join gthe Ubuntu forums if your not alraedy
[06:34] <zen> alraune: resolution issue: after nvidia-xconfig and restarting gdm, it hangs, had to reset xorg.conf to failsafe. Note: I can driver in xorg.conf to nvidia and it works perfectly fine but when I commit the nvidia x server genetrated xorg conf it just hangs during boot up.
[06:34] <Seven_Six_Two> Avasz, you can try sudo apt-get dist-upgrade    to install any held back packages too
[06:34] <Jacenzzz> I always forget my login haha
[06:34] <nullkuhl> hello, am using latest ubuntu 10.10, i have installed nvidia drivers from cuda page, everything seems fine, however when i try to set my resolution to HD and apply it, it works fine but after reboot or restarting X, it gets back to low resolution ., any idea ?
[06:34] <Avasz> ok.
[06:34] <Avasz> i will do it.
[06:34] <alraune> zen: installed via hardwaredrivers ?
[06:34] <nit-wit> Jacenzzz,  use firefox and a a synch there is a ff sync

[06:35] <Avasz> alraune, still doesnt work
[06:35] <alraune> zen: seldom,if recommended used,check /var/log/Xorg.0.log for additional hints
[06:35] <Avasz> do i need to remove the restricted extras?
[06:35] <izinucs> nullkuhl: if you're using nvidia-settings start it with sudo .. as in .. gksudo nvidia-settings .. when you're done save to xorg.conf
[06:35] <alraune> Avasz: next command will log you off, so first read:
[06:36] <Jacenzzz> @nit-wit  haha...Im still required to use windows for somethings...fat chance of that lol
[06:36] <nullkuhl> izinucs: i did, i just checked xorg.conf and i has the settings i want, but it seems not to be loaded/applied
[06:36] <Avasz> ok.
[06:36] <nit-wit> see you all on the other side
[06:36] <Seven_Six_Two> zen,   sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg -phigh

[06:36] <Syria> Hello there guys, I want to remove more than 4 packages in one command, how is that possible?
[06:36] <alraune> Avasz: sudo init 1         <<brings you to a simple gui where you can choose dpkg repair broken packages, run that, then sudo gdm start gets you back on the desktop
[06:36]  * Mikaze still can't play DVDs in Linux.
[06:37] <prakriti> Syria:  sudo apt-get remove package1 package2 package3
[06:37] <Avasz> so... shall i run it?
[06:37] <izinucs> nullkuhl: might have something to do with the version of nvidia-settings.. depends.. I use the x-swat PPA for the drivers and it pulls in the matching settings program for the drivers.. it may also setup the drivers differently.. you might have to use xrandr to adjust the rez.
[06:37] <alraune> Mikaze: tried vlc ?
[06:37] <Seven_Six_Two> Mikaze, have you installed the restricted-extras package and run the script for decss that comes with libdvdread4?
[06:37] <Syria> prakriti Thank you very much.
[06:37] <nullkuhl> izinucs: xrandr ?
[06:37] <Mikaze> Nope.
[06:38] <izinucs> !xrandr | nullkuhl
[06:38] <zen> Seven_Six_Two: Did that. Succefulyl execcuted, What is it suppposed to do. Because it didnt output anything.
[06:38] <izinucs> !resolution | nullkuhl
[06:38] <Syria> prakriti For example I want to remove aisleriot solitair, where can i get the package name from?
[06:38] <Seven_Six_Two> zen, reset you xorg.conf to sensible defaults when it's broken
[06:39] <nullkuhl> izinucs: what is LVDS?
[06:39] <Seven_Six_Two> zen, then restart x or reboot
[06:39] <izinucs> nullkuhl: which link did you get that at?
[06:40] <nullkuhl> izinucs: 2nd
[06:40] <prakriti> Syria: sudo apt-get search solitaire
[06:40] <nullkuhl> izinucs: am getting warning: output VGA1 not found; ignoring,   and  warning: output LVDS not found; ignoring
[06:40] <prakriti> Syria, sorry thats aptitude command line:  sudo aptitude search solitaire
[06:41] <ceaze> HI ALL

[06:41] <Seven_Six_Two> prakriti, I think you can apt-cache search
[06:41] <prakriti> Syria, Sysudo aptitude search aisleriot
[06:41] <ActionParsnip> prakriti: you can also use: apt-cache search solitare ,users can search the repos, just can't install :)
[06:42] <ActionParsnip> ceaze: mame romname
[06:42] <ActionParsnip> ceaze: there are gui frontends for it too
[06:42] <grendal_prime> hey i got some ubuntu vm's that got borked due to power outage.. i need to run fsck on them...i cant get  a boot menu on these things to put into diag mode to run fsck
[06:42] <zen> Seven_Six_Two: Yes it reset the xorg.conf. But still wondering why the nvidia generated xorg for 1024x768 doesnt work while default vesa driver for 1024x768 work fine. NOTE: Nvidia X server settings can succefully apply resolution upto 1152x864 but when the same settings are commited to xorg and rebooted it hangs during bootscreen.
[06:42] <ceaze> ActionParsnip: can you explain me in steps?
[06:43] <intrader> Seven_Six_Two, the pastebin http://paste.ubuntu.com/535781/. Sorry for delay
[06:43] <ActionParsnip> ceaze: that's all it it, its one command so I just gave you "the" step
[06:43] <Seven_Six_Two> zen, are you choosing to merge or overwrite from the nvidia-settings program?
[06:44] <ceaze> ActionParsnip, but how will it recognize the path of the rom?
[06:44] <ActionParsnip> grendal_prime: hold shift at boot and boot to root recovery, or mount an ubuntu iso with the image and fsck from livecd desktop
[06:44] <zen> Seven_Six_Two: Since I dont know how to run sudo of a GUI app, I am manually copying the preview of xorg as sudo in terminal vi
[06:44] <ActionParsnip> ceaze: you specify it, like every other command...
[06:44] <Avasz> alraune, didnt work.. i coudnt even get to sudo init 1.. it said some error.. i cant remember. like cant get to init or something
[06:44] <zen> Seven_Six_Two: Overwrite it
[06:45] <ceaze> ActionParsnip, OK

[06:45] <ceaze> ActionParsnip, If it is in a folder in downloads then what will be the path?
[06:45] <ActionParsnip> grendal_prime: i'd just restore the vm from backup, then perform a data restore if it is an sql/web server etc
[06:45] <Seven_Six_Two> zen   open a terminal and use      sudo nvidia-settings &
[06:46] <nullkuhl> izinucs: when i log off, resolution is HD , when i login to my account, resolution gets lower !, and no matter what i do, after log off, and log in again, it gets back to low resolution
[06:46] <ActionParsnip> ceaze: mame $HOME/Downloads/filename use TAB to autocomplete
[06:46] <ActionParsnip> ceaze: I suggest you read: man mame
[06:46] <ectospasm> ahtmly2k: I've seen pulseaudio fail to initialize the sound driver on my machine with lucid and maverick.  Typically rebooting solves it, but ymmv
[06:46] <grendal_prime> ActionParsnip, i just built these havent added them to the backup yet.
[06:46] <intrader> zen, gksudo command ....
[06:46] <izinucs> nullkuhl: sorry I don't have the answer.. you might try making another account and see if it behaves the same.
[06:47] <glitchd> does anyone know anything about getting flash to work in ubuntu 10.04 ff 3.6.12?????????
[06:47] <zen> intrader: thanks
[06:47] <glitchd> its driving me nuts
[06:47] <nullkuhl> izinucs: xrandr: Failed to get size of gamma for output default , does that help ?
[06:47] <ActionParsnip> grendal_prime: I see. Could just reinstall if they are fresh installs
[06:47] <zen> Seven_Six_Two: thanks . should i merge or overwrite?
[06:47] <izinucs> glitchd: sudo apt-get install flashplugin-nonfree
[06:47] <glitchd> izinucs, tried
[06:47] <grendal_prime> ya this is not giveing me any options to run fsck..just bombs out and says...nope
[06:47] <glitchd> izinucs, didnt work
[06:47] <izinucs> nullkuhl: no sorry.
[06:47] <ahtmly2k> i've reboot 3 times already.. it was just fine last night
[06:47] <izinucs> glitchd: did you restart ff?
[06:47] <grendal_prime> grrr this is not good..
[06:47] <glitchd> i posted on the forums with a snapsot
[06:47] <Seven_Six_Two> zen, I normally overwrite, but just make a backup first if you have something to save (you shouldn't yet!)
[06:47] <glitchd> shot
[06:47] <glitchd> izinucs, yes
[06:48] <glitchd> izinucs, ive tried a few diff ones
[06:48] <izinucs> glitchd: do you still have gnash installed?
[06:48] <glitchd> izinucs, idk
[06:48] <glitchd> izinucs, how do i find out?
[06:48] <ActionParsnip> glitchd: what is the output of: uname -a; lsb_release -a; dpkg -l | grep flash; dpkg -l | grep swf; dpkg -l | grep gnash ,use a pastebin to give the output please
[06:48] <izinucs> glitchd: you can only have one flash at a time.. uninstall all the others but leave the nonfree one.
[06:48] <grendal_prime> recovery mode id what i want right?
[06:48] <izinucs> gotta run.. :)
[06:48] <grendal_prime> is what i want i mean
[06:48] <glitchd> izinucs, did that already
[06:48] <lolcat> What will 11.04 be like??
[06:49] <lolcat> And why not nautilus?
[06:49] <ActionParsnip> grendal_prime: yes then root recovery
[06:49] <glitchd> izinucs, still didnt work
[06:49] <grendal_prime> is there such a thing with grub 2?
[06:49] <rww> lolcat: #ubuntu+1 for Ubuntu Natty discussion and support, not here
[06:49] <ActionParsnip> lolcat: natty is discussedin #ubuntu+1
[06:49] <lolcat> I know nautilus is WAY faster than konqueror
 i've reboot 3 times already.. it was just fine last night..
[06:49] <Keith-BlindUser> Hi all. I had a question about purchasing CDs from the Kanonical store. Does anyone know if you get CDs meant for 32-bit machines only?   Or can you choose if you purchase a pack of CDs wich type your getting.
[06:49] <ActionParsnip> lolcat: pcmanfm is faster still
[06:49] <zen> Seven_Six_Two: I have a failsafe xorg just in hand, so if something should go wrong I can recover and come to this irc. Ok will try overwriting  and rebooting. Will report back here  after 2 mins.
[06:49] <grendal_prime> ActionParsnip, never gives me an option for that
[06:49] <Keith-BlindUser> I ask this because the machines I plan to purchase some CDs for are 64-bit.
[06:50] <intrader> Anyone, how to mount a FAT usb with execute permissions so that I can do a chmod on a .sh file?
[06:50] <grendal_prime> not for the root recovery that is
[06:50] <ectospasm> ahtmly2k: did you do a cold boot or soft reboot?
[06:50] <Seven_Six_Two> intrader, I told you. You don't set executable permissions on a mount.
[06:50] <ActionParsnip> grendal_prime: hold shiftat boot, select recovery mode kernel then rootrecovery mode. Hold the down cursor off the bottom of the menu
[06:51] <grendal_prime> just a bunch of stuff on screen then inode fked up   file system has errors.
[06:51] <zen> Seven_Six_Two: !! nvidia X server couldnt open xorg.conf for writing even in gksudo mode.
[06:51] <grendal_prime> ya i dont get the root recovery mode part...every

[06:51] <ph0n7r1c> does anyone know how to ifx toshiba battery sensor please
[06:51] <Seven_Six_Two> zen, can you browse to the file?
[06:51] <zen> Seven_Six_Two: yes
[06:51] <ActionParsnip> intrader: still going huh. You could make a bash scrip to run: sh /path/to/scriptfile
[06:51] <grendal_prime> i get the menu then select recovery mode..then a tone of onscreen info that moves really fast then a / filesystem has errors
[06:52] <nullkuhl> izinucs: yes, creating another user sovled it, thanks ( is there any checkings to make before deleting old account ? any idea how to set the new one to admin or so ? )
[06:52] <ActionParsnip> glitchd: bad gateway..
[06:52] <Seven_Six_Two> zen, you tried with sudo?
[06:52] <glitchd> ActionParsnip, lemme try again
[06:52] <ActionParsnip> glitchd: try http://pastie.org
[06:52] <ph0n7r1c> i have a toshiba battery prolem in ubuntu
[06:52] <ph0n7r1c> help
[06:52] <grendal_prime> fsck / terminated with status 4
[06:52] <ubuXubu> There are two aspects to Linux permissions: the people who have access and the access they are granted. There are three groups of people: owner, group, and others. There are three types of permissions read (2), execute (1), and write (4). You simply add the permissions that you want (i.e. read and write is 2+4=6). You get three sets of permissions, which get combined to form a three digit number.For example,to give the owner, group, and others read an
[06:52] <ubuXubu> d write access the permissions would be 666. To allow only the owner to read/write and group/others to read only, then the permissions would be 622.
[06:52] <zen> Seven_Six_Two: what, you mean opening that file ? I culdnt understand
[06:52] <ActionParsnip> grendal_prime: i'd go for live cd then
[06:53] <Seven_Six_Two> grendal_prime, maybe you can fsck from a live cd?
[06:53] <zen> Seven_Six_Two: if you mean in terminal, yes i browsed to that file using sudo.
[06:54] <Keith-BlindUser> I was away from teh comptuer for a second-did anyone notice my question?
[06:54] <glitchd> ActionParsnip, http://pastie.org/1322135
[06:54] <ActionParsnip> glitchd: get all flash plugins removed that are listed there, then install only flashplugin-nonfree. I gotta changebusso will bbiab
[06:54] <Seven_Six_Two> zen, no I mean running   sudo nvidia-settings   instead of gksudo nvidia-settings     not that it should matter
[06:54] <glitchd> ActionParsnip, u gotta what??
[06:54] <ubuXubu> i would definitely specify 64bit then Keith-BlindUser
[06:54] <ActionParsnip> glitchd: switch bus. I'm on the way to work
[06:55] <glitchd> ok so ull be  back right?
[06:55] <Keith-BlindUser> Ah
[06:55] <Gnea> he'll be on a bus
[06:55] <Seven_Six_Two> Keith-BlindUser, not yet. I've never purchased them before, but you can always download the 64 bit versions
[06:55] <glitchd> ActionParsnip, ull be back?
[06:55] <Gnea> glitchd: he said he will be
[06:55] <Keith-BlindUser> So far though on the store form I see a payment confirmation form and all that stuff, but not a place to sspessify what CD type you get in the pack..am I wrong?
[06:55] <intrader> Anyone, how do I mount a FAT usb with execute permissions so that I can do a chmod on a .sh file?
[06:55] <glitchd> Gnea, k
[06:55] <zen> Seven_Six_Two: tried with sudo. Still no luck "ERROR: Unable to open X config file '/etc/X11/xorg.conf' for writing."
[06:55] <ahtmly2k> soft reboot..
[06:55] <ActionParsnip> glitchd: uninstall that package and install flashplugin-nonfree,shouldbefine.I'll be about 10. You get working :)
[06:55] <st__> intrader, with exec option
[06:55] <ahtmly2k> ill do a cold now..
[06:56] <grendal_prime> man this blows
[06:56] <intrader> st__, tell me more
[06:57] <frankie____yul> anybody got any kind of wireless usb adapters working with 10.10?
[06:57] <st__> intrader, use 'mount' command to see what the deviace name for your usb is and then mount it 'udisks --mount DEVICE --mount-option rw,exec'
[06:57] <Datz> frankie____yul: I'd assume any that worked with previous kernel versions would work with 10.10
[06:58] <infid> how do i upgrade from 10.04 to 10.10 and is it safe?
[06:58] <frankie____yul> Ok, any sugestion for wireless adapters? have tried two of them with ndiswrapper - no luck
[06:59] <psycho_oreos> infid, its not recommended, lets put it that way
[06:59] <rww> !upgrade | infid
[06:59] <Seven_Six_Two> zen, the only think I can think of is that you aren't in the sudoers file. Or something else entirely...    ;)
[06:59] <psycho_oreos> s/recommended/ideal/
[06:59] <Gnea> frankie____yul: have you seen the list of supported wifi devices?
[06:59] <frankie____yul> yeah, but it seems the list is for older versions of ubuntu
[06:59] <Seven_Six_Two> infid, you can upgrade, but I did it, and went back to 10.04
[06:59]  * Datz wants to see a comprehensive list
[07:00] <frankie____yul> and I picked netgear that was in that list and it did  not work
[07:00] <Datz> I used to have a link to a good one
[07:00] <Gnea> frankie____yul: do the math - if it works for an older release, it'll work for a newer release
[07:00] <infid> Seven_Six_Two: why is it so bad this time? i went from 9.10 to 10.04 fine
[07:00] <Gnea> frankie____yul: which netgear?
[07:00] <rww> infid: It's not.
[07:00] <Seven_Six_Two> infid, v4l2 problems, no good -rt kernel
[07:00] <intrader> st__, I don't recognize any of the `mount` output. I know the volume is named SAVES so it mounts from /media/SAVES
[07:00] <frankie____yul> gnea: just a sec,
[07:00] <Seven_Six_Two> infid, I had other minor issues, but nothing that patience wouldn't fix
[07:01] <rww> I used http://www.fsf.org/resources/hw/index_html/net/wireless/index_html/cards.html to pick a wifi card. the ath9k-using D-Link I got works fine.
[07:01] <intrader> st__, I found it - the confounded USB is '/dev/sdb1 on /media/SAVES type vfat (rw,nosuid,nodev,uhelper=udisks,uid=1000,gid=1000,shortname=mixed,dmask=0077,utf8=1,showexec,flush)'
[07:01] <psycho_oreos> frankie____yul, I suggest buying wireless dongles brand names from much more reputable small shops rather than the likes of large corporations like netgear which has a notorious habit of sharing same model numbers with different wireless chipsets
[07:01] <infid> Seven_Six_Two: are the changes major enough to where i should consider a full install? i dont really want to have to reconfigure all my current stuff unless it's major
[07:02] <Syria> prakriti The termenial gave this E: Invalid operation search
[07:02] <Seven_Six_Two> infid, is your home on a separate partition?
[07:02] <zen> Seven_Six_Two: I am in fact in sudoers file. Just tried doing gksudo gedit and pasted the nvidie xorg preview and saved. still no luck. What happens is it just hangs at the boot screen, I can even change the terminal by pressing ctrl+alt+.... I have to load grub by pressing shift and then reset the xorg.
[07:02] <psycho_oreos> Syria, sudo apt-cache search
[07:02] <zen> Seven_Six_Two: *I CANT even change th terminal .....
[07:03] <infid> Seven_Six_Two: yeah
[07:03] <Seven_Six_Two> zen, dang. sorry. I don't know what to suggest. do you see any output in /var/log/Xorg.0.log file?
[07:03] <frankie____yul> gnea: cant seem to find the model
[07:03] <psycho_oreos> frankie____yul, does it even have fcc id printed on the device itself?
[07:03] <frankie____yul> psycho_oreos: which one have you tried?
[07:04] <Gnea> frankie____yul: it's possible you're pulling my chain.
[07:04] <Ni8mare> I am facing problems in pidgin in ubuntu 10.10. It crashes when someone calls me. Please help.
[07:04] <Gnea> frankie____yul: the lsusb command doesn't show it?
[07:04] <olskolirc> how can i get an html for my desktop wallpaper on karmic
[07:04] <infid> does ubuntu install well if your home dir is on a separate partition? eg it doesn't keep ubuntu specific files on your home?
[07:04] <Seven_Six_Two> infid, you can do a disc install if you want, and during partition setup, choose to use your home partition as whatever filesystem it is, tell it where to mount and make sure "format" is deselected. Then everything will still be mostly the same.
[07:05] <Gnea> infid: works fine, although some dot-directories may need to be wiped
[07:05] <intrader> st__, does not accept 'sudo udisks --mount /dev/sdb1 --mount-option rw,exec'
[07:05] <frankie____yul> gnea it was NETGEAR RangeMax Dual Band Wireless-N
[07:05] <infid> Gnea: will it wipe them for me
[07:05] <psycho_oreos> frankie____yul, I'm using ones by alfa networks, edimax and one generic brand (ok not really recommended but I double checked with the online seller which has the chipset that I wanted). D-Link also has fairly good versioning system so if you're still willing to stick with brand names you can buy from shops I'd get D-link.. however their SOHO routers/switches aren't particularly great
[07:05] <frankie____yul> yes it was showing in lsusb
[07:05] <Gnea> infid: no.
[07:05] <Gnea> frankie____yul: great, what's the usb id?
[07:05] <Ni8mare> pidgin crashes when someone calls me in it in ubuntu 10.10. pls help
[07:06] <psycho_oreos> frankie____yul, pastebin (not paste) your lsusb output
[07:06] <zen> Seven_Six_Two: Yes, there is output iin /var/log/Xorg.0.log --> http://paste.ubuntu.com/535783/  I am unable to decipher anything meaningful from it. Any help please?
[07:06] <frankie____yul> I have already returned the the card.
[07:06] <frankie____yul> I will try to find the ubuntu forum thread where we discussed it
[07:07] <Datz> Ni8mare: perhaps try #pidgin
[07:07] <Seven_Six_Two> zen, do you have 2 monitors?
[07:07] <Ni8mare> ok
[07:08] <Datz> Ni8mare: although they'll just tell you to upgrade to the newest version
[07:08] <Gnea> frankie____yul: returned it to where?
[07:08] <zen> Seven_Six_Two: No, only one monitor.
[07:08] <frankie____yul> to the store.
[07:08]  * Gnea facepalms
[07:08] <psycho_oreos> frankie____yul, ubiquiti is also nice but rather expensive (quite plush) and again for the price you're paying from the ones I suggest you're not going to get screwed around quite easily by manufacturer deciding to change wireless chipset inside the physical device thereby forcing the lack of native linux drivers able to harness it
[07:08] <Seven_Six_Two> zen, ok because for some reason the xinerama extension is being loaded
[07:08] <Gnea> frankie____yul: so you don't have ANY wireless cards with you right now?
[07:09] <frankie____yul> nope.
[07:09] <Gnea> frankie____yul: I'm sorry you felt you had to jump to that incorrect conclusion
[07:09] <frankie____yul> man, I used like a week for that
[07:09] <Gnea> frankie____yul: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/HardwareSupportComponentsWirelessNetworkCardsNetgear#USB  if it's in that list and says it's supported, then it will work
[07:09] <frankie____yul> and to get my money back I had to return it on time
[07:10] <psycho_oreos> frankie____yul, depending on your budget in any case, and whether or not would you feel comfortable buying products online. If you're looking for a cheap one and wouldn't mind purchasing it over internet, there's rokland n3 that I'd recommend however my usage compared to yours may vary alot.
[07:10] <Seven_Six_Two> zen, this also looks odd:    (WW) AllowEmptyInput is on, devices using drivers 'kbd', 'mouse' or 'vmmouse' will be disabled.
[07:10] <frankie____yul> ok it was this card WNDA3100-200PES
[07:10] <Gnea> frankie____yul: if it doesn't work out-of-the-box then it's because 10.10 changed something, then getting someone in here along with the forums to help you would be the correct route to go, not to mention less costly
[07:10] <zen> Seven_Six_Two: hmm..
[07:10] <intrader> st__, does not accept 'sudo udisks --mount /dev/sdb1 --mount-option  rw,exec'
[07:10] <Seven_Six_Two> zen, your video card isn't reading your monitor's edid. I've read that unplugging your monitor's power cable for 30 minutes while pc is off can reset it.
[07:11] <frankie____yul> http://kb.netgear.com/app/products/model/a_id/2610

[07:11] <meowz> what's the name of the skype pkg for ubuntu?
[07:11] <meowz> i see the deb pkg on the skype webpage but would like to apt-get it
[07:12] <ActionParsnip> meowz: skype ,its in the partner repo
[07:12] <Gnea> frankie____yul: checking it out...
[07:12] <ActionParsnip> meowz: or maybe medibuntu repo
[07:12] <meowz> ActionParsnip: i have all the sources
[07:12] <krunal> ActionParsnip, have you heard anything about how i5 cpu's work with ubuntu? optimized?
[07:12] <zen> Seven_Six_Two: Thank you very much, I will try that now. If you are still here I will report you the results. Thanks once again.
[07:13] <grendal_prime> ActionParsnip, turned out to be not such a big deal...i hit the F key while it was at that haulted screen ..it said...ATEMPTING TO FIX  did the usual vodoo with inode clean up now all is good
[07:13] <ActionParsnip> meowz: I doubt you have ALL the sources
[07:13] <Seven_Six_Two> zen np. good luck
[07:13] <ActionParsnip> grendal_prime: nice. Wtg!
[07:13] <meowz> ActionParsnip: all the ones in the sources page
[07:13] <meowz> first page
[07:13] <Gnea> frankie____yul: please read this again, at the VERY BOTTOM of the page: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/HardwareSupportComponentsWirelessNetworkCardsNetgear#USB
[07:13] <psycho_oreos> frankie____yul, the other way is to look at the internal pictures via the fcc id. Honest manufacturers would print fcc id on their devices if it utilises the radio networks (meaning wireless networks and bluetooth generally) and the fcc id could then be used to view the internal pictures of the said device without one having to physically pry the device apart (thus voiding warranty)
[07:14] <frankie____yul> gnea, it was v2 not v1
[07:14] <frankie____yul> psycho_oreos:  what is fcc id?
[07:15] <Gnea> frankie____yul: doesn't matter much, did you happen to ever try wicd?
[07:15] <frankie____yul> nope
[07:15] <psycho_oreos> frankie____yul, http://spectrum.ksc.nasa.gov/fcc_id3.jpg <--- purely an example, every device has a different fcc id but is not unique (like IMEI for example)
[07:15] <Gnea> now, many wireless cards that I've had problems with started working with wicd
[07:16] <frankie____yul> man, I should have come to irc channel when I was trying to get it to work...
[07:16] <ActionParsnip> meowz: I think they have their own repo. Let me check
[07:16] <Gnea> frankie____yul: well, get the card again and try again
[07:16] <Syria> Hi, Is there anyway to remove all the games in one terminal command?
[07:16] <ActionParsnip> krunal: why ask me?
[07:18] <krunal> ActionParsnip, I thought I spoke to you about it a few days back - I guess it wasn't you . sorry
[07:18] <ActionParsnip> krunal: I have zero interest in cpu now so most likely not me ;)
[07:19] <psycho_oreos> Gnea, I wouldn't bother honestly :) just tell him to get a supported card, much less fiddling around
[07:20] <ActionParsnip> meowz: http://www.webupd8.org/2010/05/skype-in-ubuntu-partner-repository-gets.html
[07:21] <psycho_oreos> and netgear needs to get their act together because they're doing nothing more than giving their consumers who run alternative platforms grief
[07:21] <Gnea> psycho_oreos: it's supported, but obviously the page is a bit out of date
[07:21] <woyujnss> http://banner.wo8cai.com/cgi-bin/redir.cgi?vbox007
[07:21]  * psycho_oreos checks the link frankie____yul was talking about
[07:21] <psycho_oreos> !spam | woyujnss
[07:22] <psycho_oreos> !ops woyujnss spamming
[07:22] <psycho_oreos> *rolls eyes*
[07:22] <ActionParsnip> psycho_oreos: its not netgears job. They don't make the chips
[07:23] <ActionParsnip> psycho_oreos: they buy chips from broadcom/atheros/ralink and make adapters, the chip makers should make better drivers
[07:24] <ActionParsnip> Although ralink drivers are sweeeet
[07:24] <psycho_oreos> ActionParsnip, correct that they don't but they should at least properly version their products so that its easier reference.. D-Link's versioning is quite detailed with hardware rev. and firmware rev. printed clearly on the external packaging of their product which in turn can be used to easily identify if certain rev has different chipset or not
[07:24] <ActionParsnip> psycho_oreos: your OS can do that for you, but the marking makes purchase easier :)
[07:26] <rww> woyujnss: Don't advertise links in here, please.
[07:26] <rww> psycho_oreos: for future reference, you put a | after ops ;)
[07:27] <psycho_oreos> ActionParsnip, how do you mean? I mean like if one vendor doesn't have proper versioning clearly labelled on the device wouldn't that mean nothing more than giving consumers a bit of red herring trying to find ones with the right chipset to work with? I mean I wouldn't want to go buy a product, try it at home and to see that it fails to work with native and open sourced drivers but then I have to go back to the shop and return it.. isn't that purely just
[07:27] <psycho_oreos>  a redundant and time wasting factor? :)
[07:27] <psycho_oreos> rww, :/ thanks
[07:28] <psycho_oreos> s/redundant/redundancy/
[07:29] <ActionParsnip> psycho_oreos: could take a netbook down. Alternatively if you buy from company's whom preinstall linux, you can call and ask ifthey know if it will work with your chosen distro
[07:29] <psycho_oreos> Gnea, well I checked the device it is supported albeit using ndiswrapper which isn't a guaranteed method that it'll work :)
[07:29] <ActionParsnip> psycho_oreos: smart shopping :)
[07:30] <Gnea> psycho_oreos: aah, well I picked up a cisco usb card a few months ago and they had a driver to download and compile, that seemed to work ok
[07:30] <psycho_oreos> ActionParsnip, though the case is vice versa when one has a computer already running for example linux and then having to purchase a wireless card because he/she needs to setup wireless network like what a normal windows/apple users would do :) just to find that they have to do more work
[07:30] <psycho_oreos> ..
[07:30] <Nach0z> hello. can someone explain to me what exactly the swap partition is? The descriptions i've got are making it sound like just a temporary files set.
[07:31] <ectospasm> Nach0z: swap is virtual memory
[07:31] <hanasaki> on 10.10 / where is the directory for tomcat6 WAR files to be put?
[07:31] <ectospasm> Nach0z: swap is using your HDD as RAM
[07:31] <rww> and if you hibernate, swap is where your RAM is copied to so you can restore it
[07:31] <theorem> How can I add the "FreeBSD UFS2" file system as an option to the "Disk Utility 2.30.1" that comes with Ubuntu 10.04 ??
[07:32] <psycho_oreos> Gnea, hmm well I dunno what chipset that would have but ndiswrapper isn't a guaranteed solution. I have some wireless cards that sometimes works with ndiswrapper but it is a real pain if you asked me and as a power user I have to treat the ndiswrapper with much precaution unlike the native wireless drivers
[07:32] <Nach0z> gotcha. thanks guys. later all
[07:32] <meeee_> hello
[07:33] <Gnea> psycho_oreos: yeah, I try to avoid ndiswrapper at all costs
[07:33] <meeee_> anybody here?
[07:33] <ectospasm> meeee_: not I
[07:33] <meeee_> how not?
[07:34] <krunal> whats the major differences btwn ubuntu and kubuntu
[07:34] <psycho_oreos> Gnea, well that wireless dongle that frankie____yul had requires ndiswrapper :D as far as I can tell from google searches it is broadcom bcm4323 chipset which has no native linux support
[07:34] <frankie____yul> if you avoid the ndiswrapper and it does not work out of the box, no native drivers, arent you screwed? what do you thing of this one? http://is.gd/hGz4Y
[07:34] <meeee_> i like ubuntu
[07:34] <Gnea> what would cause wicd-monitor to gonuts?
[07:34] <psycho_oreos> krunal, ubuntu uses gnome frontend, kubuntu uses kde frontend. Same base, different frontends
[07:34] <rww> krunal: Kubuntu uses the KDE Desktop Environment. Ubuntu uses GNOME.
[07:35] <krunal> right I read that.. but i've never used KDE....ubuntu is my first distro i've ever used
[07:35] <Gnea> frankie____yul: sometimes the vendor has a linux driver
[07:35] <krunal> is KDE better? worse? any different?
[07:35] <frankie____yul> psycho_oreos yes, chipset name started with bcm6 I think
[07:35] <ectospasm> krunal: it's a matter of taste
[07:35] <psycho_oreos> frankie____yul, pretty much you're stuffed if ndiswrapper doesn't want to work with it :) I have a chipset that refuses to work well with ndiswrapper
[07:35] <frankie____yul> gnea, but isnt it too seldom?
[07:35] <ectospasm> krunal: you may find KDE fits your needs better than GNOME (or whatever)
[07:35] <krunal> ectospasm, i guess trying both out will be the answer...see what I like
[07:35] <ectospasm> krunal: exactly
[07:35] <coz_> krunal,   well kde can be more resource intensive than gnome
[07:35] <Gnea> frankie____yul: not with netgear/cisco
[07:36] <Gnea> frankie____yul: it's just not always obvious
[07:36] <psycho_oreos> frankie____yul, yeah that's definitely a broadcom chipset, bcm signifies broadcom which is slow to provide native linux support
[07:36] <coz_> krunal,   this is your first linux attempt?
[07:36] <krunal> my new laptop arrives Friday. I hope that I don't have much trouble getting it to work... a few things that will need attention
[07:36] <krunal> coz_, yes
[07:36] <frankie____yul> Ok, guys. so the way to go is with alfa member:networks, edimax, as suggested by psycho_oreos?
[07:36] <krunal> a few thign.. intel 6250 with wimax, geforce gtx 420m...
[07:37] <coz_> krunal, oh well... probably like everyone here...you will experiment with different Desktop Environments  and applications
[07:37] <psycho_oreos> frankie____yul, there's also hawking and rokland
[07:37] <meeee_> how can i mix ubuntu with windows on same desktop same time?
[07:37] <coz_> krunal,   honestly ...I would suggest...at some point in this journey , that you do just that,, try the different Evironments available...some with suit your needs  others will  make you angry :)
[07:37] <meeee_> how can i mix ubuntu with windows on same desktop same time?
[07:38] <histo> meeee_: what do you mean by mix?
[07:38] <histo> meeee_: dualboot?
[07:38] <Datz> meeee_: virtualization software
[07:38] <Gnea> frankie____yul: d-link is bottom of the barrel
[07:38] <krunal> coz_, yes you are right.. i'll try KDE on the new system...i really like Ubuntu 10.10 right now. It's really friendly and pretty powerful
[07:38] <meeee_> to use in same time
[07:38] <coz_> krunal,   oh yeah...and I always come back to the Gnome desktop environment
[07:38] <Datz> !kvm | meeee_
[07:38] <krunal> I had an issue with connecting to win7 shares > apparently unistalling MSN Live Assistant fixed it
[07:39] <xttaetg> How can i install Virdft
[07:39] <coz_> krunal,   I find it ,,, from my perspective,,, more logical and easier to get around in... kde is "fancier"  than gnome :)
[07:39] <psycho_oreos> frankie____yul, that's not too bad of a choice, according to google searches, its using ralink chipset which is mostly supported under linux
[07:39] <xttaetg> How can i install Virdft
[07:40] <histo> meeee_: virtualmachine
[07:40] <frankie____yul> psycho_oreos: you mean the D-link example I sent a link to?
[07:40] <histo> meeee_: and check out wubi
[07:40] <psycho_oreos> frankie____yul, yes, the D-Link DWA-140
[07:40] <coz_> xttaetg,  do mean this?   https://help.ubuntu.com/community/KVM
[07:40] <meeee_> good idea
[07:40] <meeee_> thanks
[07:41] <frankie____yul> Other choices would be one of these: http://is.gd/hGzZx
[07:41] <xttaetg> No
[07:42] <xttaetg> It's a game
[07:42] <coz_> xttaetg,  oh :)  sorry about that...do you have a link?
[07:42] <DasEi> Avasz: still online ?
[07:42] <krunal> coz_, on a new dell xps notebook...fancy might be good :)
[07:42] <meeee_> im happy to use ubuntu
[07:43] <coz_> krunal,   absolutely :)   test it out.... experiment ...that 's part of the learning process
[07:43] <xttaetg> yes ,KVM is a player?
[07:45] <coz_> xttaetg,   one hint on irc...if you type the first 2 or 3 letters of somone's name and hit the tab button to complete their name ,,,then type your message,,, they will be alerted and know that you are speaking with them :)
[07:45] <xttaetg> coz_, ok ,thank you
[07:45] <coz_> xttaetg,   :)
[07:46] <coz_> xttaetg,   now do you have a link for that game?
[07:46] <psycho_oreos> frankie____yul, I'd stick with D-Link if you need to go with really large brand :) just make sure to ask the seller which rev for both hardware and firmware the seller has prior to purchasing and then double-checking that with google to see if the chipset equipped is supported. Linksys and TP-Link afaik have poor versioning, Jensen and Zyxel I'm not too sure and again I won't recommend Netgear unless you can be certain that it has a supported chipset whi
[07:46] <psycho_oreos> ch you'll need to by fcc id and that won't be visible unless one has the actual device (not the packaging box or its manuals, etc)
[07:46] <xttaetg> yes
[07:46] <xttaetg> i have
[07:46] <coz_> xttaetg,  could I see the link please
[07:46] <xttaetg> ok
[07:46] <xttaetg> wait a moment please
[07:46] <coz_> ok
[07:48] <frankie____yul> psycho_oreos: how did you check which chipset used in DWA-140
[07:48] <frankie____yul> ?
[07:48] <digi_N810> hello, does anyone here have issues with mdadm and initrd when booting *sometimes* drops to a busy box shell?
[07:48] <xttaetg> coz_ http://vdrift.net/
[07:49] <coz_> xttaetg,  ok let me look,,, hold on
[07:49] <xttaetg> coz_ ok thanks
[07:49] <coz_> xttaetg,  are you one ubuntu 10.10  or 10.04 ?
[07:49] <psycho_oreos> frankie____yul, I type in the model number followed by appending the words `; chipset' so in that case I'd do: `DWA-140; chipset'.. and then from the results on the first few pages I get a general consensus on the chipsets it maybe reported to be equipped with
[07:50] <xttaetg> centos 5.5
[07:50] <digi_N810> anyone here use mdadm at all?
[07:50] <psycho_oreos> frankie____yul, would GBP27 be within your budget for a really decent one? :)
[07:51] <xttaetg> coz_, centos is my host os
[07:51] <coz_> xttaetg,  ooo... well  you most likely will have to download the source for that game  and then compile it manually
[07:51] <coz_> xttaetg,   I was thinking ,,,since this is ubuntu channel ...that were on ubuntu which would be an easy install with the playdeb  packages
[07:51] <frankie____yul> psycho_oreos: cant find it on the website of the local store
[07:52] <xttaetg> coz_  ok thank you very much
[07:52] <meeee_> i have ubuntu notbook installed on my laptop, the system looks perfect but if i want to watch a video on the web on the middle time is stop working. i tried on windows it is works perfect, can anyone help me why i can't watch from beginning to the end a video?
[07:52] <coz_> xttaetg,  i would go to   #centos  channel
[07:53] <coz_> xttaetg,  to do that ,, you probably already know...where you type here   type    /join  #centos
[07:53] <coz_> xttaetg,  they could better help with the installation of that game ...show them the link
[07:53] <xttaetg> coz_  my host os is ubunto
[07:53] <coz_> xttaetg,   ah ok
[07:53] <digi_N810> meeee_, what type of video? flash?
[07:54] <meeee_> i can give u link
[07:54] <coz_> xttaetg,   http://www.playdeb.net/software/VDrift
[07:54] <meeee_> http://www.echotv.hu/videotar.html?mm_id=108&v_id=5442
[07:54] <psycho_oreos> frankie____yul, which? what?
[07:54] <frankie____yul> psycho_oreos: GBP27
[07:54] <Avasz> DasEi: hi
[07:54] <filsuf> hoi .. anybody runs linux on Acer Aspire 1810T i%?
[07:54] <ice799> ls
[07:54] <filsuf> i5
[07:55] <psycho_oreos> frankie____yul, ahh I meant that as in money.. as in GBP (Great British Pounds) 27 :) I don't have pounds symbol on my keyboard :)
[07:55] <frankie____yul> psycho_oreos: I cannot find GBP27  on the website of the local store. Do you have a link?
[07:55] <ice799> Hi there. Does ubuntu have a list of who maintains which ubuntu packages? Are some packages just pulled directly from debian and automatically rebuilt for ubuntu? I'm curious because I've taken over the release of a project that has an ubuntu package and I am trying to figure out how to alert the ubuntu package maintainer that a new release is coming.
[07:55] <xttaetg> coz_  sorry,i'm wrong
[07:55] <xttaetg> coz_ my guest os is ubuntu
[07:56]  * psycho_oreos thinks he should probably just print the USD$ as it is listed on that seller site instead lol
[07:56] <xttaetg> can't install nvidia
[07:56] <coz_> xttaetg,  ok ... on that link you gave me ,,,go to it's homepage ,, and at the bottom click on how to install the playdeb pcakge  then just click the "Install now" button to install the game afterwards
[07:57] <meeee_> coz_ what do you think?
[07:57] <psycho_oreos> xttaetg, I don't think one is able to install normal drivers for emulated devices under virtual machines and video cards is one of them that is emulated on the guest OS
[07:57] <coz_> meeee_,   sorry ... the link>
[07:58] <coz_> ?
[07:58] <meeee_> http://www.echotv.hu/videotar.html?mm_id=108&v_id=5442
[07:58] <xttaetg> psycho_oreos,  thank you
[07:58] <coz_> meeee_,   I am not sure what that is about
[07:59] <psycho_oreos> xttaetg, no problems
[08:00] <Diverdude> Does anybody in here have any experience with slingbox or similar setups for wifi television?
[08:00] <xttaetg> psycho_oreos, what's the time now there
[08:00] <psycho_oreos> 18:00:41
[08:00] <coz_> Diverdude,  sorry guy I do not
[08:01] <xttaetg> psycho_oreos, where are from?
[08:01] <xttaetg> 16:02 here
[08:02] <psycho_oreos> xttaetg, beyond the black stump ;) j/k .au
[08:02] <Syria> Hi, I want to install Zimbra mail desktop but I don't know what to do with the tgz file?
[08:02] <xttaetg> psycho_oreos, i don't understan you
[08:03] <psycho_oreos> xttaetg, well its getting a little off-topic, think we should discuss it in #ubuntu-offtopic just for channel rules sake :)
[08:04] <psycho_oreos> Syria, you need to decompress/detar it
[08:04] <xttaetg> ok,i know
[08:04] <psycho_oreos> xttaetg, I'll talk to you more about it in that ot channel :)
[08:04] <Syria> psycho_oreos I can do that but whats next?
[08:04] <benzap> hello, anyone here know of an easy way to get samba shares working easily under the ubuntu remix?
[08:05] <benzap> back with nautilus, it was easy as hell, but now ican't figure it out
[08:05] <xttaetg> rpm -jxvf  files.tgz rihgt?
[08:05] <Syria> psycho_oreos I did this using right click on the file > extract here.
[08:05] <psycho_oreos> xttaetg, s/rpm/tar/ && s/j/z/
[08:06] <psycho_oreos> Syria, hmm it should appear as a directory once succesfully extracted or you get lots of files I think
[08:06] <airtonix> Whoever is moderating askubuntu.com needs to get more vigorous about it... people need to learn it's not a forum and answers are not there just to serve the selfish desires of the person posting the question.
[08:06] <Syria> psycho_oreos yes, I have two folders and one file called install.py
[08:06] <rww> airtonix: try #ubuntu-stack.
[08:07] <rww> #ubuntu doesn't oversee askubuntu.com ;)
[08:07] <xttaetg> yes ,i'm so sorry
[08:07] <psycho_oreos> xttaetg, don't worry we all learn from one way or the other :)
[08:08] <xttaetg> psycho_oreos, you are higher
[08:08] <psycho_oreos> Syria, looks like you'll need to run install.py from the console for better output
[08:08] <psycho_oreos> xttaetg, we all had to start from somewhere
[08:09] <xttaetg> hehe  you are very goog
[08:09] <xttaetg> hehe  you are very good
[08:10] <psycho_oreos> heh thanks
[08:10] <Syria> psycho_oreos I did this, I got a message telling if i want to install files for the current user, after typing yes and enter the terminal was closed
[08:11] <psycho_oreos> Syria, I suppose you double clicked on the install.py file? Then I suppose the files would have been installed as your current login (unless you want to put it somewhere else like for example around the rootfs
[08:12] <xttaetg> psycho_oreos, i can't use the command yum update
[08:12] <JesperB> Hey
[08:12] <Syria> psycho_oreos It works!! Thank you very much.
[08:13] <JesperB> Anyone got a nice theme that I can get for Gnome? Dark =)
[08:13] <xttaetg> psycho_oreos, i can't use the command yum update
[08:13] <psycho_oreos> Syria, heh np
[08:14] <xttaetg>  i can't use the command yum update
[08:14] <llutz_> xttaetg: use apt-get
[08:14] <psycho_oreos> xttaetg, that's for rpm based distro, not sure what you'll need to do, maybe put sudo in front if you're not superuser and/or check what switches yum accepts
[08:15] <frankie____yul> psycho_oreos: could you look at the data sheet and tell me if there is good chance that it will work: ftp://ftp.dlink.se/Data%20sheets/dwa-140.pdf
[08:15] <frankie____yul> it does not mention the chipset though
[08:15] <JohnnyL_> What file do I have to edit so that X doesn't auto load?
[08:15] <xttaetg> it's just can't update user the command
[08:16] <JesperB> Hey
[08:16] <JesperB> I'm trying to use ettercap via the Terminal
[08:16] <MindVirus> I am looking for a scheme interpreter and compiler. Any suggestions?
[08:16] <xttaetg> in root
[08:16] <JesperB> What's the help command ?
[08:16] <f4nt4sy> n
[08:16] <xttaetg> llutz, yes i know but i want to use the command yum update
[08:16] <MindVirus> Anyone know anything about Scheme?
[08:17] <psycho_oreos> frankie____yul, data sheets aren't particularly helpful and vendors themselves usually don't print out which chipset they use (well large ones usually don't). However DWA-140 afaik is supported for most parts, so you should have 3 options, the native driver, the sta driver by ralink or ndiswrapper
[08:17] <vubuntor804> hi
[08:17] <JohnnyL_> anyone?
[08:17] <vubuntor804> hi

[08:26] <psycho_oreos> frankie____yul, ahh bugger :/ might have to try another source hmm.. if you check the wireless-n from the left pane you'll see there's fair few other ones which are also pretty good.. maybe you can just grab the model number of the one you like from that list and pipe that into google for other potential retailers.. hmm I'm sure rokland n3 should be for sale elsewhere
[08:26] <IdleOne> figures...
[08:26] <ldunn> rww, super-sleuth.
[08:26] <rww> xttaetg: the "Couldn't look up your hostname" means that there isn't a hostname attached to your IP address. This is normal for some connections, and isn't something to worry about.

[08:28] <slacker-> Hi, I have set up nodm on a workstation. To prevent it to turn off the screen I have put xset -display :0 dpms force on in .xinitrc. Unfortunately, this line doesn't seem to have any effect and the screen is switched off after a while. what can I do?
[08:28] <kentmt> sorry i cannot enable card wireless   who can help me
[08:30] <timo> slacker-: try xset -display :0 -dpms
[08:30] <slacker-> timo: the syntax is right. If I execute it on the command line, it turns on the display immediately
[08:31] <psycho_oreos> frankie____yul, I see there's an ebay store retailing it
[08:31] <frankie____yul> saw it too
[08:31] <frankie____yul> :)
[08:31] <slacker-> timo: and i'm sure .xinitrc is executed because the command after xset is run
[08:31] <frankie____yul> this one is not the same as you sent? http://viewitem.eim.ebay.no/Rokland_n3_80211n_WIRELESSN_USB_adapter_for_Apple_Mac/130444429722/item

[08:33] <Doinkle> Hi.  Why was aptitude removed from 10.10 ?
[08:34] <rww> Doinkle: because it and tasksel took up space on the LiveCD that the developers decided could be better used by other things
[08:34] <frankie____yul> psycho_oreos: what are driver alternatives?
[08:34] <rww> (space on the LiveCD, and thus in the default installation, is very limited)
[08:34] <Doinkle> rww, got it.  in your opinion would you continue to use it on your boxes?
[08:34] <taran> I am running C program in Ubuntu but it does not accept Header files.Any HELP?
[08:34] <xttaetg> psycho_oreos, when i reboot the computer,i have to reinstall the nvidia,why
[08:34] <Doinkle> i read a few things about apt-get vs aptitude
[08:35] <llutz_> Doinkle: sudo apt-get install aptitude  && be happy
[08:35] <rww> Doinkle: I only use aptitude on my boxes :)
[08:35] <psycho_oreos> frankie____yul, would be the same choice as D-Link DWA-140 however it should have native support that device
[08:35] <Doinkle> llutz & rww thanks./
[08:35] <frankie____yul> psycho_oreos: you have tried it?
[08:35] <psycho_oreos> xttaetg, not sure, maybe you're running off USB (like liveUSB for example)
[08:36] <psycho_oreos> frankie____yul, not that device, though I wish I could afford one :/ I have bought a different product from that shop however

[09:24] <ty__> cong,  what is the issue man
[09:24] <st__> how to make.
[09:24] <cong> what does this mean:init: ureadahead main process (xxx) terminated with status 5
[09:24] <DasEi> gladiator: doesn't look to good, backup with dd if possible, give testdisk a try

[09:26] <tgywa> theo, I can't mount the first of three NFS partitions on Ubuntu 10.04.
[09:26] <gladiator> DasEi, this was the output if disktest
[09:26] <theo> @cong: Try booting in recovery mode
[09:26] <theo> @tgywa: same error?
[09:28] <sougata> cong , status 5 usually means that you have /var mounted on a separate partition
[09:28] <GuillaumeG> f
[09:29] <cong> yeah, i separate /var in a partition
[09:29] <rww> cong: ureadahead exiting with a non-zero status is not necessarily indicative of a problem. I get that error simply because I have a separate /home partition. I recommend ignoring it.
[09:29] <rww> assuming you can boot, anyway ;)
[09:30] <newlinuxuser> hey guys :)
[09:31] <cong> my partitions are  /,/home, /boot, /var, /usr
[09:31] <newlinuxuser> i was wondering what the best way is to interface with my ntfs drive that i share with windows and keep my data on (eg should i symlink it to my home folder, should i mount the drive within my home folder, etc)
[09:32] <llutz_> newlinuxuser: you are the only user on that system? mount it into your home then
[09:34] <dash9> rww, I got this answer from #virtualbox
 dash9: Well, we cannot fix the old packages. As this is only a warning, just ignore it.
 We will drop the old 2.1 packages sooner or later from the repository.
[09:35] <dash9> thanks

[09:42] <berkes> couchdb addressbook in evolution keeps crashing on me. Couchdb itself is running fine, though.

[09:43] <berkes> akios, that is essential compontent in the netbook-interface. You should best reïnstall with normal Gnome. You cannot have both Gnome and Netbook Remix.

[09:45] <gaurava> by following this article  <https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SerialConsoleHowto > .. but facing some issues with that
[09:46] <gaurava> but  no luck till this time ..
[09:46] <theo> @tgywa: I have to go
[09:46] <gaurava> can ny1 help me to troubleshoot the issye
[09:46] <gaurava> *issue
[09:49] <berkes> akios: though maybe you can find Unity (the name of the interface you have) plugins, apps or tweaks, that make it a little bit like gnome. Though I am quite certain, just switching to Gnome is by far the easiest for you :)
[09:52] <berkes> where do I find the script, command or service to (re)start desktopcouch?
[09:53] <salami> berkes: the startscripts should be in /etc/init.d/
[09:54] <salami> so according to a quick google search (assuming you want to start couchdb) you can use: /etc/init.d/couchdb [start|stop|restart]
[09:54] <berkes> salami, yes, but not desktopcouch.
[09:54] <berkes> salami, that is for the "global" couchDB, if you have that installed.

[09:57] <bilalakhtar> Diverdude: sorry I didn't note you use Userver
[09:57] <bilalakhtar> just a sec
[09:58] <bilalakhtar> Diverdude: no, I don't think so
[09:58] <bilalakhtar> Diverdude: let me search for a way to detect it
[09:58] <jfig> Server boot failure : i have a server (10.10) with softraid, wont boot, if I use rescue mode data on lvm appears ok in /target, booting from disk following messages appear "fsck from util-linux-ng 2.17.2" / "/dev/mapper/lvm1-lv1: clean, ......."
[09:59] <Diverdude> bilalakhtar, thank you
[09:59] <bilalakhtar> Diverdude: Is there a file called /dev/video0 ?
[10:00] <Diverdude> bilalakhtar, yeah
[10:01] <bilalakhtar> Diverdude: If you don't have any other video capture device connected (webcam, etc) then it means that your card is detected
[10:01] <mix> hello guys !
[10:01] <Diverdude> bilalakhtar, aha thats nice at least....there is only graphic card
[10:02] <bilalakhtar> Diverdude: Congrats, your card is detected!
[10:02] <bilalakhtar> Card above means TV tuner card
[10:02] <alk0bra> hey all :)
[10:02] <Diverdude> bilalakhtar, you see its been years since i bought this computer...Do you have any idea if ubuntu also detects type and model etc?
[10:02] <alk0bra> Hello
[10:02] <Diverdude> bilalakhtar, of the tv tuner card
[10:03] <bilalakhtar> Diverdude: it must be doing that, but for that you will need tools that would check that
[10:03] <rww> Diverdude: if it's a PCI card, try "lspci"
[10:03] <bilalakhtar> and I can't think of any in that sort :(
[10:03] <alk0bra> guys I have problem in GanckTrack
[10:03] <Diverdude> bilalakhtar, i was thinking about a command similar to lspci
[10:03] <alk0bra> any one use GanckTrack ?
[10:04] <bilalakhtar> Diverdude: Doesn't lspci do it?
[10:05] <Diverdude> bilalakhtar, hmm actually lspci shows: Multimedia video controller: Conexant Systems, Inc. CX23880/1/2/3 PCI Video and Audio Decoder  and Multimedia controller: Conexant Systems, Inc. CX23880/1/2/3 PCI Video and Audio Decoder [Audio Port]
[10:05] <Diverdude> bilalakhtar, i wonder if it is any of those
[10:07] <bilalakhtar> Diverdude: could you pastebin the whole output of lspci?
[10:07] <Diverdude> bilalakhtar, http://pastebin.com/DB7SqKQx
[10:07] <mao> is anybody there ?
[10:08] <bilalakhtar> thanks
[10:09] <s3r3n1t7> mao, yes.
[10:09] <Diverdude> bilalakhtar, any ideas?
[10:09] <mao> :) Thanks to s3r3n1t7
[10:10] <mao> I'm reading IRC info now
[10:10] <bilalakhtar> Diverdude: sorry I am not experienced in that way, and I don't know which one is the tv tuner card in that paste
[10:12] <BOOB> jeeeeeeeeee
[10:12] <greenmang0> oh BOOB
[10:12] <BOOB> pp
[10:12] <BOOB> ppp
[10:12] <BOOB> p
[10:12] <raveh> q
[10:13] <s3r3n1t7> BOOB, please don't.
[10:13] <rww> Diverdude: The two that you pasted in-channel are the capture card. There's one entry for video and one for audio.
[10:13] <solofight> people i have a 4 gig machine, can i use ubuntu 64 bit to get max performance and effortless use or it has to be 32 bit ?
[10:14] <rww> solofight: If your CPU supports 64-bit, you can use 64-bit. If not, you can use PAE.
[10:14] <rww> !pae
[10:14] <Diverdude> rww, a capture card? so it is a tv tuner card?
[10:14] <rww> Diverdude: It's http://www.conexant.com/products/entry.jsp?id=107 , by the look of it
[10:15] <rww> I'm not very knowledgable about these things, but it looks like one.
[10:15] <Diverdude> rww, hmmm yes....i wonder how to interface with that guy
[10:15] <solofight> rww: thanks for the link, will i be restricted in any way if i use the 64 bit os ?
[10:16] <rww> solofight: Not really. I use 64-bit and haven't had problems, though some people in here claim to have issues with Flash and other non-open-source stuff.
[10:16] <rww> everything in Ubuntu's repositories should work fine.
[10:16] <sllide> is there a spanish channel here?
[10:17] <rww> sllide: #ubuntu-es
[10:17] <solofight> rww: whoa, you didnt have any issues with flash right ?
[10:17] <rww> solofight: no
[10:17] <greenmang0> rww: so youtube works for you?
[10:17] <rww> greenmang0: yes
[10:18] <v_v> rww: this pae has a little problem, it's not 3.2GB RAM for 32bit data line
[10:18] <sllide> rww: thanks :)
[10:18] <greenmang0> rww: cool.... I will switch to 64bit with 11.04 :)
[10:18] <chalcedony> how can i open a .rar please?
[10:19] <rww> !rar | chalcedony
[10:20] <salami> the problem with flash was that adobe didn't offer a 64bit version of their closed-source player for quite some time, so 64bit users were limited to the opensource implementations
[10:20] <chalcedony> rww This page does not exist yet. You can create a new empty page, or use one of the page templates. https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FileCompression.
[10:20] <chalcedony> !info unrar-free
[10:20] <rww> chalcedony: remove the . from the end of the URL
[10:20] <chalcedony> ahh
[10:21] <chalcedony> ty rww
[10:21] <raveh> sudo apt-get install p7zip-full
[10:21] <raveh> sudo apt-get install unrar-nonfree
[10:21] <rww> the tl;dr is to install unrar-free, and if that doesn't work, enable the multiverse repository (if it isn't already) and install unrar.
[10:22] <solofight> rww: thank you very much
[10:23] <psyk3d> hello everyone
[10:23] <trigun420> yo
[10:23] <psyk3d> is this the right place to ask help for problems
[10:23] <solofight> rww: whats the difference between the usual 10 version and the LTS one ?
[10:23] <rww> psyk3d: with Ubuntu? yes
[10:23] <trigun420> prolly not, but go for it
[10:23] <davendizz> --channel
[10:24] <rww> solofight: LTS releases are supported for three years on desktops and five years on servers. Normal releases are eighteen months for both. 10.04 is an LTS release, 10.10 isn't.
[10:24] <davendizz> hi, just installed konversation. can anyone tell me how i access different channels please?
[10:24] <psyk3d> idk if its ubuntu related, but i've observed the same kind of problem in windows too

[10:25] <psyk3d> i downloaded a certain torrent
[10:25] <solofight> rww: whoa, thank you
[10:25] <psyk3d> but i wanted to delete it
[10:25] <psyk3d> but it just doesnt get deleted
[10:25] <solofight> the latets version of ubuntu is 10.10 is it ?
[10:25] <psyk3d> i mean it keeps creating it self
[10:25] <rww> solofight: yes
[10:26] <psyk3d> i even used sudo rm -rf but nothing happened
[10:26] <psyk3d> can you tell me what can i do to remove it
[10:27] <littlejoey> psyk3d: sorry I cam in late, what keeps creating itself?
[10:27] <davendizz> Anyone know how to access a channel list vwith konversation? The help menue doesn't work
[10:27] <Brewer_> When I plug in my headphones the sound comes through the headphones and the speakers. The only way to solve this is to use alsamixer to lower the sound from the speakers but not from the headphones.
[10:27] <psyk3d> np, those files
[10:27] <Brewer_> Is there a way to fix this for good?
[10:27] <psyk3d> wait ill type everything in a sentence :P
[10:27] <solofight> rww: thank you
[10:27] <solofight> rww++
[10:28] <psyk3d> i dled a torrent, but i wanted to delete it, it just doesnt go away, the files in the folders keep creating them selves everytime i delete them
[10:28] <rww> psyk3d: which torrent client are you using?
[10:28] <Brewer_> When I plug in my headphones the sound comes through the headphones and the speakers. The only way to solve this is to use alsamixer to lower the sound from the speakers but not from the headphones. Is there a way to fix this for good?
[10:28] <psyk3d> deluge
[10:29] <psyk3d> this>>> .fuse_hidden00011557000000b9  is the file name
[10:29] <Trigun420> Anyone ever gotten Battlefield 2142 to run with wine?
[10:29] <rww> psyk3d: right-click the torrent in Deluge, I think there's a deletion option within the program
[10:30] <littlejoey> my "theory" psyk3d: is that it is the Deluge program that keeps recreating them
[10:30] <sinisterstuf> how can I remove a package that I can't uninstall, it shouldn't be there
[10:30] <psyk3d> nope, it isnt even running atm
[10:31] <Trigun420> is the download cancelled in the program?
[10:31] <chalcedony> i downloaded unrar-free which appeared to work, but opened into a directory with other things.. how can i find the contents of this? TMate5720_5320_EXtensa_5620_5220.rar ?
[10:31] <psyk3d> yeah
[10:31] <solofight> thank you all
[10:31] <nafri> hello, is it possible to use blocking socket for connection from client... when client is connected, create a new thread for each client and perform non-blocking socket I/O inside each thread for that client....?
[10:31] <littlejoey> psyk3d: another theory is it is a permission thing maybe
[10:31] <psyk3d> i tried sudo
[10:31] <littlejoey> ic
[10:31] <psyk3d> sudo -i and su too
[10:32] <littlejoey> psyk3d: maybe because it is a hidden file? hmm let me see if this is an issue hang on
[10:32] <Trigun420> what is the file?
[10:32] <psyk3d> .fuse_hidden00011556000000b8
[10:32] <Trigun420> youve downloaded it more than once?
[10:32] <psyk3d> should i calm av on it
[10:32] <Trigun420> are you on a dual boot?
[10:33] <psyk3d> yeah
[10:33] <Trigun420> yes to dual boot?
[10:33] <psyk3d> yeah
[10:33] <psyk3d> dual boot
[10:33] <Trigun420> ok
[10:33] <Trigun420> on a shared partition?
[10:33] <Trigun420> or two partitions?
[10:33] <psyk3d> shared
[10:33] <Trigun420> alright
[10:34] <Trigun420> its more than likely a file permissions problem
[10:34] <Trigun420> imho
[10:34] <psyk3d> as in?
[10:34] <Trigun420> is it in your home folder?
[10:34] <psyk3d> nope, ive 3 partitions
[10:34] <littlejoey> yes psyk3d: use sudo chmod hmm something first
[10:34] <psyk3d> 1: win7, 2: shared, 3: linux
[10:35] <psyk3d> littlejoey: i  did
[10:35] <Trigun420> your being unclear.
[10:35] <Trigun420> I asked you originally if you were operating on a shared partition
[10:35] <psyk3d> oh that, nope
[10:35] <psyk3d> you mean like wubi stuff
[10:35] <littlejoey> ok in a terminal, what is the output of sudo rm "name of the file"
[10:35] <psyk3d> that file is on the shared partition
[10:36] <psyk3d> the directory is not empty
[10:36] <littlejoey> oh ok
[10:36] <Trigun420> can you delete any files out of that folder, and not that one?
[10:36] <littlejoey> I got it
[10:36] <psyk3d> its a directory with tonnes of other directories and that file in each of them

[10:38] <psyk3d> yeah
[10:38] <Trigun420> hmm
[10:38] <psyk3d> its a virus or something?

[10:40] <x404x> hm I am trying to send a file to my server with scp and I am getting 110 BYTES pr second, I was hoping for a tad more speed, any idea what could be wrong or what tryes to block me ? isp ? firewall ?
[10:40] <psyk3d> thanks people, ill get back to you if it doesnt work
[10:40] <Trigun420> i wouldnt bother
[10:41] <x404x> with vnc also i get average 0 bytes pr second and often timeouts , and I forwarded ports 5000-7000
[10:41] <Trigun420> you forewarded the whole range?
[10:42] <x404x> yes
[10:42] <Trigun420> that seems like a bit much
[10:42] <x404x> and yet not enough
[10:42] <Trigun420> what compression are you using with your viewer?
[10:42] <x404x> the highest
[10:42] <Trigun420> i would only foreward individual ports as needed.
[10:43] <Trigun420> how are you sending the file?
[10:43] <x404x> winscp
[10:43] <x404x> it also get timeouts all the time
[10:43] <x404x> 20 before it even list the dirs
[10:43] <danboid> Is anyone elses flash running at hyper speed under maverick?
[10:43] <Trigun420> lol
[10:43] <Trigun420> yeah

[10:44] <ech0Asus> hi, i'm having a slight issue.. mon0 is on channel -1, but the AP uses channel 4.. it stays on -1???
[10:45] <x404x> maybe try yanking the firewall out but then my net is wide open and the portranges will not be the same
[10:45] <KrimZon> does anyone know how to get ctrlproxy on lucid?
[10:45] <ech0Asus> attempting to set channel by sudo airmon-ng start wlan0 4 but it gives same error every time and remains on chan -1 and puts wlan0 on channel 5??
[10:45] <x404x> also with pasv ftp i cannot connect
[10:46] <x404x> i set the local ports on both server and client to a range forwarded
[10:47] <x404x> ssh also connects insanely slow , how much bandwith does this use ?
[10:47] <x404x> is spi a bad idea to have on ? its a kind of firewall in my router

[10:50] <shashwat> Is there a way in which you can update from 10.04 to 10.10 from the CD
[10:50] <shashwat> ???
[10:50] <rww> shashwat: only the alternate CD, not the desktop live CD
[10:51] <rww> shashwat: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MaverickUpgrades#Upgrading%20Using%20the%20Alternate%20CD/DVD
[10:51] <biopyte> i tried to upgrade from lucid to maverick on my eeepc. the upgrade exited with errors, the system is corrupted, what can i do? help is appreciated a lot. thank you
[10:51] <ectospasm> biopyte: what were the errors?
[10:51] <x404x> hm 18 bytes pr sec with the dmz active
[10:51] <x404x> doesnt look like my firewall blocks it
[10:52] <shashwat> rww:I have just got the Live CD via shpit and I dont want to Reistall
[10:52] <danboid> Yep - flash plays at turbo speed with no sound under both FF and chromium on Maverick 32 here
[10:52] <ectospasm> shashwat: the alternate CD is the only way to do it, afaict
[10:52] <rww> shashwat: then upgrade using the Internet or find a way to get an alternate CD. Desktop CD can't do it.
[10:53] <shashwat> rww and ectopasm: thanks
[10:54] <biopyte> ectospasm, couldn't unpack dejavu-ttf package or so in the middle of the unpacking process. completely weired. i can boot the old system, but then i'm stuck at the login screen with a message "Install problem! blablabla" cant login. i tried a clean install using a usb stick, but the box will not boot from the stick.
[10:54] <x404x> hm when i reconnected scp it goes fast, very fast
[10:54] <shashwat> IF THERE IS A DEVELOPER OUT HERE I REQUEST YOU TO MAKE IT SUCH THAT WE CAN UPGRADE FROM A UBUNTU DESKTOP LIVE CD, IT WILL BE GREAT TO HAVE IN SUCH A WAY.
[10:54] <ectospasm> shashwat: don't yet
[10:55] <danboid> shashwat, I can't see a CD only upgrade working unless you never installed any extra packages. If you don't have internet- how are you on irc? Why not just use Update Manager? I wouldn't recommend anyone with dial-up use Ubuntu

[10:56] <danboid> So is it just the flash plugin that the repo downloads that screwed, is it Maverick or is it my machine?
[10:57] <ectospasm> danboid: did you check to make sure npviewer.bin doesn't have it's sound muted?
[10:57] <biopyte> ectospasm, the 10.10 usb starter works perfect on my thinkpad.
[10:57] <danboid> ectospasm, That doesn't explain the more than 4x playback speed
[10:57] <ectospasm> biopyte: different hardware, different can of worms
[10:57] <ectospasm> danboid: oh, I didn't see that part of your problem.
[10:57] <gsal> hello, have any one installed mailman, I installed it and everything is fine but when a member sends to the list the message doesn't go to everyone in the list. However confirmation and welcome messages are sent from the system, any advice ?
[10:58] <danboid> I presume flash is workig for everyone else here under Maverick then?
[10:58] <ectospasm> danboid: I have no problems
[10:58] <biopyte> ectospasm: on the eepc i can even log into a text console tty1. lsusb recognizes the usb stick.
[10:58] <shashwat> k, I am not using a dial-up nor am I using a 24mbps unlimited broadband. Hence there are restrictions for me to download what amount at a time. and I was using ^Shift.
[10:58] <ectospasm> danboid: there's a flash problems thread at ubuntuforums
[10:59] <ectospasm> biopyte: could be a video card problem, then
[10:59] <ectospasm> biopyte: maybe the stock drivers don't agree with your hardware, I dunno
[11:01] <biopyte> ectospam, i still can login on tty1, do you see a way to go on troubleshooting from there?
[11:01] <danboid> biopyte, So startx doresn't work then?
[11:02] <danboid> biopyte, and you've tried a 'sudo apt-get dist-upgrade' from tty and that fails right?
[11:02] <biopyte> danboid, error "server is already active ..."
[11:03] <danboid> biopyte, CTRL+ALT+F7
[11:03] <biopyte> danboid, thats what i wish to do. however i have only wireless connection in a cafe and i dont know how to connect to the wlan without using X.
[11:04] <biopyte> danboid, if i only could connect to wireless from tty1 and then sudo apt-get dist-upgrade
[11:05] <solofight> where do i download ubuntu 64 bit for my intel machine ? one in the ubuntu download site says amd
[11:06] <rww> solofight: amd64 works on consumer Intel 64-bit processors
[11:06] <danboid> biopyte, I've been saying for years Ubuntu should ship wicd instead of network-manager as wicd has a ncurses gui to connect with. I can't remember the cli commands off the top of my head- its a pain but can be done
[11:06] <rww> (I'm assuming you don't have something weird like Intel Itanium)
[11:06] <biopyte> danboid, stupid situation, actually i need the box running to day. the usb stick is brandnew, bought it 2 hours ago. boy, someone is playing games with me ...
[11:06] <biopyte> wicd not installed
[11:07] <solofight> rww: whoa, it dosent support that is it ?
[11:07] <rww> solofight: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Amd64
[11:08] <rww> solofight: amd64 = x86_64 = Intel 64, does not equal IA-64
[11:08] <danboid> biopyte, Theres a CLI guide here https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/WiFiHowTo
[11:08] <biopyte> danboid, you cant boot from sdhc card, right?
[11:08]  * solofight blinks
[11:08] <biopyte> thanks
[11:08] <danboid> biopyte, You might be able to yes, depends on your BIOS
[11:10] <biopyte> i see, i could try to make a start-disk on the sd card using the thinkpad and then try to boot it on the eeepc
[11:11] <biopyte> i'm creating the sd startup disk right now
[11:11] <biopyte> dont believe the eeepc will boot it
[11:12] <solofight> thank you rww :) you are a savior
[11:14] <biopyte> danboid, eepc doesnt boot from the sd card
[11:16] <ectospasm> biopyte: for the USB stick, what point does it fail?  Does the indicator light even blink like it's being read?
[11:16] <raidghost> i have a MSI gx660r laptop with one speaker behind and two over the keyboard. The two in the front has no sound but the speaker on the back play sound. Has anyone else that problem?
[11:17] <monarch> i dont think so mate
[11:17] <monarch> try to change the alsamixer settings
[11:17] <biopyte> ectoplasm, the stick led is blinking.
[11:17] <raidghost> madstein: its pulseaudio driver
[11:17] <ectospasm> biopyte: so does it fail to boot the kernel, or what?
[11:17] <raidghost> it finds 2 devices
[11:17] <biopyte> i guess
[11:17] <raidghost> but not the last one.
[11:18] <biopyte> boots perfect on the thinkpad
[11:18] <ectospasm> biopyte: apples and frickin cinder blocks
[11:18] <madstein> raidghost:  try this sudo alsa force-reloaad
[11:18] <madstein> sudo alsa force-reload
[11:18] <ectospasm> biopyte: sanity check:  does a Windows install CD boot OK?
[11:18] <madstein> it might mute the sound see if the problems gets solved with it im not on trouble shooting either
[11:18] <ectospasm> biopyte: or, a LiveCD (not USB stick)?
[11:18] <madstein> i shouldnt be here
[11:19] <biopyte> ectospasm, i dont have windows. its an eepc, no CD drive.
[11:19] <ectospasm> biopyte: does it have the same behavior no matter what USB port the key is plugged into?
[11:20] <biopyte> ectospasm, i tried 2 out of three ports.
[11:20] <biopyte> ok, i once more try all ports
[11:20] <raidghost> madstein: http://login.kristshell.net/~raidghost/soundcard.txt
[11:21] <ectospasm> biopyte: wait, you said it doesn't boot, but how can you access tty1?
[11:21] <biopyte> ectospasm, thats the corrupted 10.04 still working somehow.
[11:21] <raidghost> 00:1b.0 Audio device: Intel Corporation 5 Series/3400 Series Chipset High Definition Audio (rev 06)
[11:21] <raidghost> 01:00.1 Audio device: ATI Technologies Inc Juniper HDMI Audio [Radeon HD 5700 Series]
[11:21] <biopyte> 10.04 was corrupted during the upgrade to 10.10
[11:22] <madstein> raidghost:  have u tryed to reload alsa as i said it might detec the card i had issues with intel chipset before and that was all i ad to do to iniciate the card
[11:22] <wqapol> My system autoupdated linux kernel to vmlinuz-2.6.32-26-generic but it doesnt work and just hangs druing bootup. I want to remove this and retain my ..32-22-generic version. How can I do this?
[11:22] <madstein> was a upstart scripts that was unloading the card duno why
[11:22] <raidghost> madstein: its using pulseaudio
[11:22] <raidghost> so i should try to use alsa instead?
[11:22] <ectospasm> biopyte: have you run memtest on it?  Maybe RAM decided to crap out.  I dunno, these are just shots in the dark
[11:22] <biopyte> i wil try it
[11:23] <raidghost> madstein: where to change from pulseaudio to alsa?
[11:23] <ectospasm> rabbitea1: IIRC, pulseaudio is built on top of ALSA
[11:23] <madstein> pulse audio uses alsa mate i belive its like that
[11:23] <madstein> i had those issues over an year ago i forgot
[11:23] <wqapol> Right now it boots directly to ..32-26-generic version, how can I make it to boot ..32-22-generic by default?
[11:24] <ectospasm> wqapol: you'd have to change that in grub config
[11:24] <madstein> stil on the panel on the sound icon u can edit some setings and try to use another device if any ther it proly has one ther
[11:24] <madstein> i cant help u ,uch more with it
[11:24] <madstein> im sorry
[11:24] <wqapol> ectospasm: But I am on10.04 with grub2.
[11:25] <ectospasm> wqapol: my suggestion still stands.
[11:25] <wqapol> ectospasm: You mean I have to removed the latest version from synaptic?
[11:25] <biopyte> ectospasm, how can ectospasm, memtest not installed
[11:26] <madstein> http://img718.imageshack.us/img718/2487/capturaecral.png
[11:26] <biopyte> ectospasm, thanks anyway
[11:26] <madstein> http://img4.imageshack.us/img4/5451/capturaecra1kw.png
[11:27] <ectospasm> biopyte: memtest used to be included on the LiveCD, do you not even get that boot menu when you boot off the stick?
[11:27] <biopyte> ectospasm, yesterday i had a perfect working 10.04 and i wanted to upgrade to 10.10 before taking the box with me on vacation. boy, i"m pi..ed  ;-|
[11:28] <ectospasm> biopyte: you've given us no indication on why the failure occurred.  So we don't know who to blame (-;
[11:28] <biopyte> ectospasm, no it boots the old system
[11:28] <ectospasm> biopyte: but it's corrupted
[11:28] <biopyte> yes
[11:28] <biopyte> lsusb sees the stick
[11:29] <ectospasm> biopyte: that doesn't matter, if you can't boot from it
[11:29] <nucking> hey everyone, i'm having problems installing the madwifi drivers for my wireless card
[11:29] <ectospasm> biopyte: seems like the problem is more fundamental than that.
[11:29] <ectospasm> biopyte: to isolate the problem, try a different distro (or even the alternate CD)
[11:30] <nucking> when i try to make in the downloaded package i get a bunch of errors about "struct net_device" having no member named 'priv'
[11:30] <biopyte> ectospasm, during unpacking the upgrade exited, because of a stupid deja-vu-ttf-font package it couldn"t install. i dont think that helps a lot.
[11:30] <nucking> i was following these instructions: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/MasterMode?highlight=((WifiDocs|WirelessAccessPoint))#Atheros (Madwifi)
[11:31] <ectospasm> biopyte: I'm not trying to resurrect the corrupt system.  I'm trying to figure out why you can't boot and install 10.10
[11:31] <biopyte> ectospasm, right ... it must be the usb stick or the distro...  is 10.04 boot image still available?
[11:31] <nucking> also, i'm on ubuntu-server 9.10 x86_64
[11:31] <ectospasm> biopyte: check a mirror, it should be
[11:32] <biopyte> alright
[11:32] <ectospasm> biopyte: actually, 10.04 is LTS, so it should be available somewhere on ubuntu.com
[11:32] <biopyte> downloading it
[11:32] <biopyte> already
[11:33] <bullgard4> In XMPP MultiUserChat (MUC) Server=conference.ubuntu-jabber.de, Room=ubuntu apparently not every participant can "see" every other. What is the reason for that?
[11:34] <Gabryfan82> how install in php xmlrpc by apt-get?

[11:36] <rww> lastlog -clear
[11:39] <biopyte> ectospasm, maybe the problem is solved
[11:39] <biopyte> apt-get upgrade on tty1
[11:40] <biopyte> ---> error: run "dpkg -configure -a"
[11:40] <biopyte> right now the interrupted install process from yesterday evening continues on tty1
[11:41] <biopyte> however that might still take a lot of time
[11:41] <biopyte> boy, i will never do a soft upgrade on a eeepc again.
[11:41] <biopyte> always clean install from usb-stick
[11:42] <Euthanatos> lol upgrades always fail =/
[11:43] <biopyte> Euthanatos, my experiences werent that bad so far. only once i had severe problem with some xfree86 upgrade
[11:43] <Euthanatos> I've broken every upgrade since I started with feisty =/
[11:44] <Euthanatos> I recovered with this last one and it was some x11 dependancy loop but it was kind of hairy there for a while
[11:45] <biopyte> that's not the idea of the system
[11:45] <dhruvasagar> Hi, what's the command to check the memory consumption of each process ?
[11:46] <biopyte> ectospasm, still setting up packages ... please cross your fingers.
[11:46] <Gabryfan82> how install in php xmlrpc by apt-get?

[11:47] <code_astronomer> hi, I get an avahi timeout error almost instantly after an atempt to connect to a mac on a local network
[11:48] <osmosis_paul> Hi guys, someone can help to explain me how transmit a private key not public by ssh to another machine
[11:48] <osmosis_paul> i'm using this line, but is not well formed
[11:48] <osmosis_paul> cp paul_key | ssh ubuntu@ec2-79-125-34-209.eu-west-1.compute.amazonaws.com 'home/ubuntu/.ssh/'
[11:49] <osmosis_paul> paul_key is the key to transmit by ssh to the other machine and the last folder as you can imagine the place where i want stablish
[11:49] <code_astronomer> osmosis_paul: I usually use scp to copy files to another machine
[11:49] <DrManhattan> so whats the deal with the performance of the nvidia driver that ubuntu uses?
[11:49] <code_astronomer> scp [file]   user@ip:path
[11:49] <WXZ> what does "svn co" mean?
[11:49] <osmosis_paul> code_astronomer, would you be so nice to give some example as i try to do
[11:49] <DrManhattan> compared to the one you download it's pretty slow
[11:49] <velko> WXZ: checkout
[11:50] <WXZ> so it's synonymous with "svn checkout"?
[11:50] <DrManhattan> and im not talking about nouveau im talking about the one included in the restricted drivers
[11:50] <code_astronomer> scp myFile user@localhost:/home/user/
[11:50] <Euthanatos> dhruvasagar, i prefer htop personally but try using system monitor if you prefer a gui and there's even an applet for gnome panel with a cool little mini-graph
[11:50] <WXZ> I'm going to assume yes
[11:50] <code_astronomer> osmosis_paul: scp myFile user@localhost:/home/user/
[11:51] <dhruvasagar> Euthanatos: ok I am trying htop, I am monitoring it on a VPS actually...
[11:51] <dhruvasagar> Euthanatos: htop is nice! I was using top...it wasn't that nice :)
[11:51] <Gabryfan82> php xmlrpc
[11:52] <lyrae> Does anyone know the command to flip my screen into portrait mode?
[11:52] <lyrae> since my monitor pivots
[11:52] <Euthanatos> dhruvasagar, htop is really nice because it does so much and gives so much information from an ultralight terminal application =)  I consider it indespensable to any level of linux user experience
[11:53] <Gabryfan82> how set in directadmin php xmlrpc
[11:53] <aldo> ciao
[11:53] <brontosaurusrex> lyrae, there is app like that in repos, check ubuntu software center, not sure if its is automagic
[11:54] <lyrae> brontosaurusrex, but there is also a command. And i'd like to bind the command to hotkeys
[11:54] <lyrae> brontosaurusrex, but if its automatic even better. ill check repo
[11:54] <brontosaurusrex> lyrae, oh, sorry then
[11:54] <lyrae> no no ty
[11:55] <velko> lyrae: xrandr

[11:56] <guampa> hello
[11:57] <guampa> what to do if evolution begins to segfault after an update?
[11:57] <guampa> (right when it starts)
[11:58] <Andy> Hello, I am using ubuntu on Acer 4820 TG. When I installed the graphics card drivers (I have a ti hd 5650), I was told to restart, after restarting ubuntu showed up in terminal mode, I followed some instructions and got back my desktop, BUT then again the driver for ATI was disabled, enabling it would again cause the terminal thing to happen. I also have a onboard intel graphics card. any solutions?
[11:58] <osmosis_paul> code_astronomer, thanks but does not works
[11:58] <osmosis_paul> code_astronomer, what do you think use cat instead scp???
[11:58] <jeroen> hoi
[12:00] <velko> osmosis_paul: what does not work? maybe you just have to specify the port and the user name in the command? or (if the server does not allows password authentication) the identity file. scp works for sure
[12:00] <DrManhattan> Jesus. flash is a mess in linux too
[12:01] <DrManhattan> and i don't think thats got anythign to do with ubuntu so sorries about the OT
[12:01] <osmosis_paul> velko, i already have a ssh public/private key stablish\
[12:01] <osmosis_paul> now that i try is copy a file into the machine
[12:01] <dhruvasagar> Euthanatos: I agree, but I am a little confused...I see multiple processes entries for a particular process
[12:02] <dhruvasagar> Euthanatos: but if I do ps -ef | grep process_name, then I see only 1 entry
[12:02] <velko> osmosis_paul: i already saw that. scp is the easiest way to do this. and it works for sure
[12:02] <osmosis_paul> give access denied
[12:03] <osmosis_paul> this line "scp paul_key ubuntu@ec2-79-125-55-29.eu-west-1.compute.amazonaws.com:home/ubuntu/.ssh/" give me permision denied
[12:03] <Euthanatos> dhruvasagar, use the grepped pid
[12:03] <velko> show me the ssh command you use  for successfull login to the server. and after that - the scp command which fails
[12:03] <osmosis_paul> velko, this error "paul_key: Permission denied
[12:03] <osmosis_paul> "
[12:03] <dhruvasagar> Euthanatos: I don't follow...
[12:03] <gladiator_> hi. any recommended software to recover data from a fat32 partition?
[12:03] <code_astronomer> osmosis_paul: should be /home/ubuntu/.ssh   ... you need full path
[12:04] <osmosis_paul> code_astronomer, this is the full path
[12:04] <dhruvasagar> Euthanatos: btw multiple entries I see within htop
[12:04] <code_astronomer> you need a leading /
[12:04] <tinytim> i want to set up my ubuntu with a /var partition that doesn't change
[12:04] <tinytim> that way i can upgrade distros full
[12:04] <code_astronomer> :/home/ubuntu/.ssh/
[12:04] <tinytim> using fstab
[12:04] <Euthanatos> dhruvasagar, you used ps to identify the program's process ID (pid), use the number when executing commands to refer to the program in question
[12:04] <tinytim> is this a good idea?
[12:04] <osmosis_paul> velko,  and the old ssh comman quit simple ssh ubuntu@Machine
[12:05] <Andy> uh.. anyone got a minute?
[12:05] <guampa> tinytim: no
[12:05] <Euthanatos> dhruvasagar, versus the multiple instances you're seeing proliferate htop (though in htop any one of the multiple entries will work)
[12:05] <osmosis_paul> code_astronomer, yes you're right i left the slash but even with the slash does not works
[12:05] <tinytim> guampa: why?
[12:05] <guampa> tinytim: /var by definition is for storing mutable things
[12:05] <Euthanatos> dhruvasagar, i can't explain it but I can tell you that it doesn't matter (effectively)?
[12:05] <guampa> tinytim: like caches, lock files and whatnot
[12:06] <velko> Andy: yes. but i don't know the answer to your problem. also - it is better to repost your question after a while and not asking if anybody has time...
[12:06] <dhruvasagar> Euthanatos: well my current assumption is that the multiple entries in htop are perhaps multiple threads...not processes..but at the moment I am confused
[12:06] <tinytim> guampa: does an update change those?
[12:06] <bullgard4> In XMPP MultiUserChat (MUC) Server=conference.ubuntu-jabber.de, Room=ubuntu apparently not every participant can "see" every other. What is the reason for that?
[12:06] <dhruvasagar> Euthanatos: I am trying to see what's hogging the memory
[12:06] <Andy> Hello, I am using ubuntu on Acer 4820 TG. When I installed the graphics card drivers (I have a ti hd 5650), I was told to restart, after restarting ubuntu showed up in terminal mode, I followed some instructions and got back my desktop, BUT then again the driver for ATI was disabled, enabling it would again cause the terminal thing to happen. I also have a onboard intel graphics card. any solutions?
[12:07] <ew73> So, gentlemen, I've got a problem somewhere between network-manager, my wifi driver, and one specific access point; I can't get a DHCP lease.  Who wants to see logs!
[12:07] <guampa> tinytim: package managers often use some /var subfolder for storing their dbs and package cache
[12:07] <Euthanatos> dhruvasagar, yes something like that I think.  Someone with a more technical understanding would be able to explain but if a particular program uses say %11 of the memory and has 4 instances it is consuming %11 not %44
[12:07] <guampa> tinytim: so yes
[12:07] <tinytim> guampa: thanks -- point taken
[12:07] <code_astronomer> osmosis_paul: if the machine doesn't allow ssh access, then you're out of luck with scp
[12:07] <bullgard4> !X11 | Andy
[12:10] <marcelo> hi. Is there a way of apt-install squid with build option --disable-internal-dns ?
[12:10] <guampa> marcelo: isn't that configurable in squid.conf or in /etc/default/squid ?
[12:11] <marcelo> guampa, yes, there is.
[12:11] <osmosis_paul> code_astronomer, i get it "cat /usr/local/transmit_key/paul_key | ssh ubuntu@ec2-79-125-55-29.eu-west-1.compute.amazonaws.com 'cat >> /home/ubuntu/.ssh/test'" thanks!!
[12:13] <ew73> It's an especially neat trick.  Setting a static IP works just peachy keen, but DHCP leases fail.
[12:13] <marcelo> guampa, it says #  TAG: cache_dns_program (only available )if Squid is rebuilt with the
[12:13] <marcelo> #       --disable-internal-dns option
[12:13] <gladiator_> anyone? any tools to recover files from a filesystem?
[12:15] <ew73> Well.  Whenever someone has a chance, I'd appreciate any insight in how to fix this.  http://scsys.co.uk:8002/57015
[12:16] <baba_b00ie> i installed vsftpd on my machine and deleted the /etc/init.d/vsftpd file by mistake. i tried apt-get autoremove vsftp and then apt-get vsftpd to get it back but it doesnt. how do i get that back ?
[12:16] <code_astronomer> 3
[12:16] <code_astronomer> 1
[12:16] <code_astronomer> oops
[12:17] <guampa> marcelo: gotcha. nice surprise i tought i had squid asking bind for lookups :(
[12:18] <maedox> baba_b00ie: dpkg-reconfigure vsftpd might do it, or you have to apt-get purge it, then apt-get install it again.
[12:18] <biopyte> logged in on tty1, how can i kill the X session?
[12:18] <maedox> biopyte: sudo service gdm stop
[12:18] <biopyte> thx
[12:19] <guampa> marcelo: so it's aptgetting squid source and recompiling then
[12:19] <osmosis_paul> i'm creating a bash script, someone know how to get the name of a Amazon machine?
[12:19] <baba_b00ie> thanks maedox, i'll try that now
[12:19] <saml> hey, is there a way to fresh boot?  i think during shutdown, something happened... and i can't boot anymore
[12:20] <biopyte> maedox, how should i restart X, avoiding the gdm login ... startx?
[12:20] <guampa> my evolution began to segfault when it start after an upgrade, how can i trace the problem?
[12:20] <saml> grub used to countdown.. but now it does not.   and when I press enter, it says it can't find /dev  and other stuff.
[12:20] <x404x> hm i installed openssh in cygwin yet it says command not found if i type ssh ?
[12:21] <ikonia> x404x: that's nothing to do with ubuntu
[12:21] <marcelo> sorry guampa, i never did that. Only a matter of grabbing the source with apt-get and then compiling it with all the prior options + --disable-internal-dns? (./configure && make && make install) ?
[12:21] <x404x> hm guess not sorry ;( its a bit linux related tho..
[12:22] <ikonia> x404x: it's nothing to do with linux nor ubuntu, we only support Ubuntu here
[12:22] <maedox> biopyte: avoiding gdm as in using another login manager? Not sure, but I think you have to change the default login manager.
[12:26] <baba_b00ie> thanks maedox, i did a purge and no luck. still no vsftpd in the /etc/init.d directorhy
[12:27] <Dr_Willis> 'sudo dpkg-reconfigure gdm'  if you have kdm/xdm/other dm's installed will let you select tghe one to use.
[12:27] <mars__> any thoughts on this bug? https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/680568
[12:27] <tinytim> i am being told not to use ubuntu for a server, that debian is more efficient -- is this true?
[12:27] <tinytim> i am used to ubuntu -- not sure if debian is going to force me to learn new stuff i don't care about
[12:28] <elFidel> tinytim: define "efficient" please
[12:28] <tinytim> but if it is cli, does it matter?
[12:28] <tinytim> elFidel: better use of resources (hardware)
[12:28] <robertcmk7> tinytim: Ubuntu/Debian, doesn't matter.
[12:28] <zakwilson> Debian's default install is smaller. That's true for the desktop too.
[12:28] <tinytim> elFidel: or a faster response of the server
[12:28] <xerox1> i am searching for free ubuntu / linux ebooks; any advice where to find something like that?
[12:28] <elFidel> tinytim: in case of server installs i dont see a big diff to be honest
[12:28] <tinytim> zakwilson: i don't care about disk size
[12:28] <zakwilson> You can get almost exactly the same results by installing more stuff on Debian or removing stuff from Ubuntu.
[12:29] <tinytim> zakwilson: the question is do i need to remove stuff from Ubuntu
[12:29] <doriangrey> hello i am following a tutorial "https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CompilingEasyHowTo"  but i am stuck on the step where it say run the following command ./configure coz when i run it nothing happen.. some help?
[12:29] <biopyte> ectospasm, maedox finally i got that stupid box running ... i believe it was a trivial problem ... the system ran out disk space .... no error message, nothing ... i've been troubleshooting for hours and its only the box ran out of disk space.
[12:29] <ectospasm> biopyte: jikes
[12:29] <tinytim> zakwilson: elFidel, i am going to stick with ubuntu, i have enough to worry about
[12:29] <Andy> Hello, can someone look into this please? http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1629799
[12:29] <zakwilson> Ubuntu may have more stuff that runs in the background loading at startup. If it's stuff you're going to be using anyway, that's no problem. If not, it will use a little bit more memory than the default Debian install.
[12:30] <najwa__> tinytim: i think debian and ubuntu share a lot of thing
[12:30] <biopyte> ectospasm: what is "jikes"?
[12:30] <zakwilson> More stuff also means more surface area for security vulnerabilities. You should uninstall or disable services you're not using.
[12:30] <tinytim> zakwilson: so i should look into what processes i should kill -- things like updatedb, etc
[12:30] <ectospasm> biopyte: it's how I spell "yikes"
[12:31] <biopyte> and whats that?
[12:31] <tinytim> zakwilson: agreed -- so it is not an os question -- but a configuration question
[12:31] <guampa> marcelo: me either. i guess something like that, yes
[12:31] <ectospasm> biopyte: it's a meaningless exclamation.  Like "woah!"
[12:31] <zakwilson> Debian and Ubuntu are essentially the same OS, configured differently.
[12:31] <baba_b00ie> i installed vsftpd on my machine and deleted the /etc/init.d/vsftpd file by mistake. i tried apt-get autoremove vsftp and then apt-get vsftpd to get it back but it doesnt. how do i get that back ?
[12:31] <biopyte> i see
[12:31] <ectospasm> biopyte: or "ouch" which is closer to "jikes"
[12:31] <biopyte> ectospasm, now i will try the boot from usb ... just for fun.
[12:32] <ectospasm> biopyte: good luck!
[12:32] <najwa__> baba_b00ie: purge firts, then reinstall it
[12:32] <biopyte> wait, first i will update ...
[12:32] <baba_b00ie> yay i got it.. i did another purge and the powers that be said let there be light. and then vsftpd reappeared =)
[12:33] <baba_b00ie> najwa__ second try running the apt-get purge worked.
[12:33] <zakwilson> You should not disable services by killing processes. Either uninstall them, or remove the link to the startup script from the appropriate /etc/rcx.d
[12:33] <primary-user> Doesn't killing processes only temporarily disable the service anyway?
[12:35] <zakwilson> Yes
[12:35] <subsu> which package contains the xorg kbd driver
[12:35] <subsu> I cant find it
[12:36] <carandraug> zakwilson, isn't there something like chkconfig in Debian to deal with the scripts in /et/rcx.d?
[12:36] <zakwilson> There is chkconfig
[12:38] <primary-user> KL2FL
[12:39] <acidflash> how do I mount in ubuntu 10.04 a device that doesnt have a uuid ?
[12:39] <carandraug> zakwilson, on a default installation? I use it on CentOS at work, never on my dekstop. Only checked now and it's not installed
[12:39] <Gangrel> How can i make Xsane primary scanning program for my HP scanner?
[12:39] <zakwilson> carandraug: no. There's apt-get for that.
[12:40] <primary-user> In Ubuntu, it should be usable without needing to set it as default.
[12:41] <carandraug> zakwilson, yeah, I saw it now thanks. I just thought it would be part of the default system and when I didn't saw it, I thought it maybe had some other name on Debian. Thanks
[12:41] <Gangrel> anyone can tell me how i can make Xsane primary scanning program through HPLIP?
[12:42] <doriangrey> anyone can tell why i cant get into a directory that exist but when i run cd /directory it say No such file or directory
[12:42] <smokystone> anyone knows about i2p, what is that? i only heard about p2p
[12:43] <elFidel> smokystone: wiki explains the basics pretty good.
[12:43] <ectospasm> doriangrey: is the directory executable?
[12:43] <coz_> smokystone,   12p is anonymous network  I believe  let me check
[12:43] <coz_> smokystone,    http://www.i2p2.de/
[12:43] <smokystone> ok, i am lazy to check wiki, better have a look
[12:44] <doriangrey> ectospasm, what do u mean?
[12:44] <john> how to edit grub
[12:44] <elFidel> smokystone: if you are too lazy to read wiki you should most likely NOT ask in irc ;)
[12:44] <doriangrey> ectospasm, its an folder
[12:44] <john> i'm looking to take off memtest
[12:44] <Gangrel> anyone can tell me how i can make Xsane primary scanning program through HPLIP?
[12:44] <coz_> john,  sudo gedit /etc/default/grub
[12:44] <rob_p> doriangrey: Is the directory at the root?  If not, then provide the full path.
[12:44] <ectospasm> doriangrey: check the permissions of the directory
[12:45] <coz_> john,  there is a line in that file that you  take out the #  to not show memtest in grub menu
[12:45] <doriangrey> ectospasm, how to ceck the permission?
[12:45] <john> that didn't work
[12:45] <ectospasm> doriangrey: ls -ald /directory
[12:46] <coz_> john,   copy paste this into terminal       sudo gedit /etc/default/grub
[12:46] <davide_> SAglavi
[12:47] <john> i did. it says command not found
[12:47] <coz_> john,   in terminal   lsb_release -a
[12:47] <doriangrey> ectospasm, ls -ald /bcwipe-1.9-7    like this?  if the folder name is bcwipe-1.9-7
[12:47] <gjp> sorry ,who can give me an google ipv6 hosts

[12:49] <sedulous> gjp: ipv6.google.com
[12:50] <john> there is a grub help website. know it?
[12:50] <Dr_Willis> !grub2

[13:01] <osmosis_paul> rob_p, you mean something like this? "cat /home/ubuntu/.ssh/authorized_keys >> paul_key.pub" this not working
[13:01] <rob_p> karthick87: The command I gave will install the latest *supported* version for your install.  If you need something else, you'll have to build it yourself or find a third-party prebuilt package.  Just be careful and don't expect support.
[13:01] <space> *executable
[13:01] <st__> chmod +x ./GWSetup.exe or smth like this
[13:02] <osmosis_paul> i want transfer the contain of paul_key into the authorized_key
[13:02] <karthick87> rob_p: oke
[13:02] <space> ok thnxs
[13:03] <rob_p> osmosis_paul: That will append the contents of your authorized_keys file to a file in the current directory called paul_key.pub.
[13:03] <n3rV3> osmosis_paul, is your current user name ubuntu
[13:03] <biopyte> unity ... thats it ... dont want that ... dumping it

[13:05] <acidflash> how does one mount a device in ubuntu 10.04 that doesnt have a UUID
[13:05] <n3rV3> osmosis_paul,  after running that have you checked the file paul_key.pub
[13:06] <myk_robinson> for some reason, I can't start brasero. When running from the command line, i get Unique-DBus-WARNING **: Error while sending message: Did not receive a reply. Possible causes include: the remote application did not send a reply, the message bus security policy blocked the reply, the reply timeout expired, or the network connection was broken.

[13:07] <n3rV3> doriangrey, try sudo cd into that must be owned by root or other user
[13:09] <littlejoey> jean: it happens that you might be missing some plugins from time to time... install them from the repos
[13:09] <doriangrey> n3rV3, sudo: cd: command not found
[13:10] <littlejoey> n3rV3, try sudo ./configure maybe, in the same directory where you have the file
[13:10] <hunt> Hi, I've got a fairly big problem, I'm installing ubuntu on a netbook at the moment and I'm stuck at the point where you have to choose your keyboard layout, I can not go forward or back, I can however do everything else, what do I do?
[13:10] <n3rV3> yes doriangrey look at what littlejoey has to say
[13:11] <littlejoey> oops, I meant doriangrey

[13:12] <n3rV3> john ^^
[13:12] <john> thanks
[13:12] <doriangrey> littlejoey,  the problem is that i cant get into such directory
[13:12] <hunt> andybleaden: it is not really frozen, I can not choose the correct layout ( it is set to georgia ) and I can not even go with georgia, because I can not go forward or back, but I can change to tty1 and everything else works.
[13:13] <n3rV3> !grub > john
[13:13] <littlejoey> doriangrey, can you explain what the terminal tells you?
[13:13] <Mac84> hello people! I have a problem :S

[13:21] <littlejoey> ok
[13:21] <david00> Is it possible to unmount /var in recovery mode?
[13:21] <mrnelson1986> david00, only if /var is on a seperate partition could it maybe be possible
[13:21] <david00> mrnelson1986, /var is indeed on a separate partition
[13:22] <david00> however it's always busy when I try to unmount
[13:22] <david00> I can remount read only, but I want to fsck the partition
[13:22] <tp76> Installing 10.10 and doing custom partitioning ... now it's stuck at "Scanning disks ..."  What is it doing?  Is it doing fsck on all the existing partitions or what?
[13:22] <mrnelson1986> david00, what do you need to do to it? oh fsck
[13:22] <david00> oh fsck indeed
[13:23] <mrnelson1986> david00, is a live cd/usb out of the question? seems easiest to me
[13:23] <david00> nope it's OK, will try that now
[13:23] <david00> just wondered if that was generally possible, cheers

[13:46] <littlejoey> McPels: I can't find the command online but I've had this once, I should be able to find it somewhere, I'm still looking, I think you delete the sources file or something like that
[13:47] <EnginA>  /etc/init.d/networking restart, not worked, and it is a bit risky, I'm on ssh

[13:54] <cisc0-guru> was done in one minute
[13:54] <ActionParsnip> cisc0-guru: but check the iso first, a bad iso wil make a bad cd at any speed
[13:54] <littlejoey> McPels: can you access synaptic at all?
[13:54] <cisc0-guru> but i can read the cd
[13:54] <blackshirt> KatronixSerf: are you using ubuntu system for right now ?

[13:55] <ActionParsnip> cisc0-guru: check the ISO, if it's good, boot the CD and start pressing ESC, you can then select "Check CD for defects", if ISO and CD are ok we can progress. Currently you have checked nothing so we don't know if the CD is good yet
[13:55] <ikonia> McPels: remove the ubuntu tweak stuff
[13:55] <McPels> ikonia: How can i remove it?
[13:55] <duypham> my mic don't work if i choose Digital Stereo Output, how can i solve this problem
[13:56] <ActionParsnip> McPels: can you give a pastebin of the output of: /etc/apt/sources.list.d/ubuntu-tweak-stable.list
[13:56] <littlejoey> McPels: what is the error?
[13:56] <ActionParsnip> McPels: if you delete the file, the error will go
[13:56] <ikonia> McPels: I'd first of all remove the line/file it's complaining about, then I would remove the package
[13:56] <cisc0-guru> i m burning at 8
[13:56] <ActionParsnip> McPels: or we can populate the file properly and use the repo
[13:56] <ActionParsnip> cisc0-guru: did the ISO pass MD5?
[13:57] <duypham> i'm using ubuntu 10.10, my mic don't work if i choose Digital Stereo Output, how can i solve this problem?
[13:57] <littlejoey> yeah I knew you could delete a file, I just didn't know which one :)
[13:58] <sprobe>  everytime my virtual machine starts ubuntu n a different host, the ethernet interfaces changes. how do I delete the udev persistent-net.rules on shutdown? that'd resolve it.
[13:58] <McPels> ikonia: Sorry! I don't know how to remove it!
[13:58] <tp76> So I guess I should use ubuntu-10.10-alternate-i386.iso to get a text based installation when the GUI installer fucks up, yes?
[13:58] <McPels> ikonia: I used to remove software via software cnters, but noe it doesn't work! :(
[13:59] <ActionParsnip> McPels: if you run the command I gave I can make the file work, you can then use ubuntu tweak as you wish (even though it's not supported and may cause issues)
[13:59] <KatronixSerf> oddly enough the command line is having no issues
[13:59] <joe_9> what is the best way to repartition a drive?
[13:59] <McPels> ActionParsnip: Sorry! Can u repeat it?
[14:00] <ActionParsnip> 13:56 < ActionParsnip> McPels: can you give a pastebin of the output of: /etc/apt/sources.list.d/ubuntu-tweak-stable.list
[14:00] <ActionParsnip> McPels: you could have scrolled up, just like I did
[14:01] <McPels> ActionParsnip:  I cannot get this /etc/apt/sources.list.d/ubuntu-tweak-stable.list
[14:02] <McPels> ActionParsnip: I've resently become a linux user!
[14:02] <McPels> ActionParsnip: so plz help more?
[14:02] <ZykoticK9> McPels, "cat /etc/apt/sources.list.d/ubuntu-tweak-stable.list" will display the content
[14:02] <ActionParsnip> McPels: you can still scroll up a chat, like any chat client in windows can
[14:03] <ActionParsnip> McPels: http://pastie.org
[14:03] <Ben64> whats with ubuntu-tweak-stable.list
[14:03] <ActionParsnip> McPels: paste the content of the file and click paste, the page will change, copy the address and paste the link here
[14:03] <ActionParsnip> McPels: pastebin is not Linux specific either
[14:03] <Ben64> repositories that hard now?

[14:05] <ActionParsnip> DARK_SKY: do you mean xmms2?
[14:05] <McPels> ActionParsnip: u mean i should enter "cat /etc/apt/sources.list.d/ubuntu-tweak-stable.list" in a terminal?
[14:05] <DARK_SKY> I think not
[14:05] <ActionParsnip> McPels: sure, as long as the content of the file is on a pastebin, so you can give the link so we can see the content
[14:06] <McPels> ActionParsnip: I entered that it showed: deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/tualatrix/ppa/ubuntu main #Ubuntu Tweak Stable Source
[14:06] <ActionParsnip> DARK_SKY: xmms is dead dude

[14:07] <ActionParsnip> !xmms
[14:08] <ActionParsnip> hi Nastya
[14:08] <DARK_SKY> alright, tnhanks
[14:08] <Nastya> I'm using vim in a console.  And i really need a thesaurus and a dictionary in it.  Help me please. Is it possible to find there?
[14:09] <shadow98> how can i upgrade to php5.3.3 on 10.04
[14:09] <erUSUL> Nastya: ask in #vim ?
[14:09] <ActionParsnip> McPels: what is the output of: lsb_release -c     ?
[14:10] <Ben64> shadow98: whats wrong with 5.3.2
[14:10] <shadow98> it crashes

[14:10] <Ben64> have you considered that it might not be php's fault
[14:10] <Nastya> thank you :))
[14:10] <shadow98> Ben64, I don't know what to consider...it keeps locking and crashing the whole server
[14:10] <littlejoey_> segmentation fault, I don't miss that error...
[14:11] <shadow98> i need to do something
[14:11] <shadow98> server is up and down up and down
[14:11] <Ben64> what is it running
[14:11] <shadow98> apache and php5
[14:11] <Ben64> :|
[14:11] <Ben64> i mean what is crashing it
[14:12] <Ben64> some forum software? uh... something else?

[14:12] <mawst> Anyone know how to rename bad files within a rar archive? File Roller's rename menu item is greyed out, and I can't extract the files because of weird filenames
[14:12] <B-r00t> shadow98: try to reinstall apache
[14:12] <shadow98> with what command
[14:13] <shadow98> im desperate for a fix..
[14:13] <B-r00t> shadow98: sudo apt-get install --reinstall apache
[14:13] <ActionParsnip> mawst: then use: rar x filename    edit the files then re-rar it
[14:13] <st__> mawst, you should have no problems with filenames
[14:13] <st__> mawst, is it encrypted archive?
[14:13] <mawst> No
[14:14] <virfrojan> hy all
[14:14] <mawst> Not encrypted, and integrity passes when tested in file roller
[14:14] <st__> rar uses plain unicode filenames, your system must be misconfigured
[14:14] <mawst> e.g. there's a file with an e with a ^ above it
[14:14] <ActionParsnip> McPels: the output is important so we can set the right release name
[14:14] <mawst> "e" rather
[14:14] <zvh> can someone help me, I just instaled ubuntu, and still can't connect to internet?
[14:14] <st__> mawst, try unrar in console
[14:14] <ActionParsnip> zvh: how do you connect?
[14:14] <Ben64> zvh: which method
[14:14] <McPels> ActionParsnip: So sorry! I cannot get u!
[14:15] <ActionParsnip> McPels: it's a terminal commands. run: lsb_release -c
[14:15] <zvh> LAN throught router
[14:15] <ActionParsnip> zvh: wired or wireless....
[14:15] <zvh> wired
[14:15] <McPels> ActionParsnip: So it says: Codename:	maverick
[14:16] <ActionParsnip> zvh: ok then run: sudo lshw -C network    you will see the wired LAN chip, websearch for guides using the product line
[14:16] <shadow98> i was also reading that php 5.3.3. was released with over 100 bug fixes
[14:16] <ActionParsnip> McPels: ok cool
[14:16] <McPels> ActionParsnip: So what?
[14:16] <B-r00t> shadow98: donwload php5.3.3 source and compile :)
[14:16] <ActionParsnip> McPels: run:   gksudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list.d/ubuntu-tweak-stable.list
[14:17] <rasmus_> I've heard so much about commercial software being added to the software center, but I cannot find it!  Where is it?
[14:17] <Ben64> shadow98: or upgrade to 10.10, it includes 5.3.3
[14:17] <rasmus_> The commercial software I mean. Not the software center
[14:17] <ActionParsnip> McPels: delete the text and add this line:     deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/tualatrix/ppa/ubuntu lucid main
[14:17] <shadow98> Ben64, I tried crashed my server
[14:17] <McPels> ActionParsnip: i did it. "deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/tualatrix/ppa/ubuntu main #Ubuntu Tweak Stable Source"
[14:18] <shadow98> Ben64, im running this as a cloud server at gigenet
[14:18] <ActionParsnip> McPels: save the new file, close gedit and run: sudo apt-get update
[14:18] <mawst> I think that worked. Thanks st__

[14:19] <Iranian> I've heard Ubuntu is running out of letters, how come that?

[14:25] <danboid> 1- Doesn't seem to be a way to disable the GNOME SFX other than using the Sound prefs tool. I had to re-install PA, disable the sounds then un-install PA again to get control over my sound hardware
[14:25] <ActionParsnip> !fax
[14:26] <ActionParsnip> ubottu doesn't ;)
[14:26] <ActionParsnip> danboid: could have removed ubuntu-sounds package
[14:26] <danboid> ActionParsnip, Heh! Wish you'd been around earlier. Ah well
[14:27] <LjL> !info gfax | researcher1
[14:27] <danboid> 2 - Flash probs. GNASH FINALLY works well for YT and GV so I've just divorced myself from flash for good and gone 100% FOSS. Lovely stuff- great day! :D
[14:28] <dan> uhhh, so I did something really stupid just now. I just did mv Music ../nonexistingdirectory  ... all of my music is now gone. What do? D:
[14:28] <LjL> !info efax-gtk > researcher1 an alternative
[14:28] <ActionParsnip> danboid: http://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/2010/08/open-source-flash-alternative-lightspark-final-released/
[14:29] <researcher1> LjL;Thanks
[14:29] <danboid> ActionParsnip, Yeah I know bout that but not tried it yet. Not really bothered about it now as a) don't think its in repos yet and b) GNASH does what I need just fine
[14:29] <ActionParsnip> dan: search the file system using a search tool, you may find them
[14:30] <ActionParsnip> danboid: if it ain't broke. Could always ditch gnash and use minitube as an alternative too. Lots of choice :)
[14:30] <shadow98> so is it not recommended to upgrade to 5.3.3
[14:31] <nibbler__> dan, that should not break anything??!?
[14:31] <danboid> ActionParsnip, Any idea how I might get rid of desktop visual FX? Appearance -> Visual FX -> None doesn't work and nor did 'pkill compiz'
[14:31] <xatcon>  i m using 10.04  wana update to 10.10 but my updater not showing that help me
[14:31] <danboid> ActionParsnip, ATI FOSS driver
[14:31] <dan> ActionParsnip: Thanks for the help, but I'm not sure how to do that. Also, it was a bit of a complicated situation: I had ~/Music which was a symbolic link to /media/System/Music (on an NTFS partition), then I did cd ~/Music, mv Music (i.e. a "Music" folder at /media/System/Music/Music) ../nonexistingfolder. Now neither Music/Music nor nonexistingfolder exist...
[14:31] <dan> nibbler__, unfortunately it appears it did, since I'm missing both folders D:
[14:32] <xatcon> hi , i m using 10.04  wana update to 10.10 but my updater not showing that help me
[14:32] <dan> xatcon, I think you have to do all updates first if you haven't done so already?
[14:32] <ActionParsnip> danboid: press ALT+F2 and run: metacity --replace   maybe
[14:33] <xatcon> i think ur rt
[14:33] <c0nv1ct> xatcon, http://tinyurl.com/24ttqx9
[14:33] <danboid> ActionParsnip, Tried that - no go
[14:33] <ActionParsnip> dan: use the desktop search tool in nautilus or install beagle or somesuch and see if it can find it
[14:33] <dan> ActionParsnip, awesome, I will try that now, thanks!
[14:34] <ActionParsnip> dan: may have to reach for your backups
[14:34] <dan> ActionParsnip, unfortunately I had none of my Music folder, due to lack of hard drive space :(
[14:34] <ActionParsnip> dan: a 500Gb HDD costs very little, a lot less than you value your data
[14:34] <dan> ActionParsnip, honestly can't believe such a simple move command can get rid of gigs of data though :(
[14:35] <zulax> mongo: error while loading shared libraries: libmozjs.so: cannot open.... error
[14:35] <dan> ActionParsnip, very true, and I was about to buy one today, too... *sigh*
[14:35] <danboid> dan: What I'd do then is d/l  and burn systemrescuecd on another machine then boot it on the one with the missing files then run photorec or testdisk to try recover them
[14:35] <virfrojan> hy
[14:36] <ActionParsnip> dan: you may be able to use foremost to restore data if you dont find them
[14:36] <Vana> \join #hvergelmir
[14:36] <KatronixSerf> for grub is there a way to tell it not to have a countdown? I tried doing the old command countdown = 0 but that tells it now to just go by the menu
[14:36] <reenignEesreveR> i wanna copy one machine's usernames to another ... which files should i copy?
[14:36] <danboid> dan: I've recovered deleted files off both ext4 and FAT partitions with photorec that way
[14:36] <reenignEesreveR> *usernames + passwords
[14:37] <dan> danboid, does it matter that the files were on an NTFS partition, and I think I tried moving them to my linux partition (I assume it's ext4? I'm very new to linux)
[14:37] <danboid> dan: It will do NTFS too but YMMV
[14:37] <st__> danboid, /etc/shadow. /etc/passwd
[14:38] <dan> danboid, it's still hopeful, thanks heaps for the help :)
[14:38] <st__> reenignEesreveR, that is
[14:38] <virfrojan> how i can get wine aplication for ubuntu 9.04 please
[14:38] <dan> it's not the end of the world, only a small 2500 song music collection, but quite sad if I lose it :(
[14:38] <danboid> dan: np, good luck. I must warn you that although it may recover you files, you will prob have to rename them
[14:39] <ActionParsnip> virfrojan: you'll need to either compile or find a jaunty ppa. Jaunty isn't supported any more
[14:39] <nibbler__> dan, its still strange to me, must be somewhere, a mv should not be able to delete anything, as long as you dont involve /dev/null or such :)
[14:39] <dan> nibbler__, precisely what I thought, but neither folder exists (seeing as I moved it to a non existent one) :/
[14:39] <danboid> dan: and you need to restore to a drive/ partition other than the one you think they've been deleted off
[14:39] <nibbler__> dan: how are things in /media/System/nonexistantfolder
[14:40] <reenignEesreveR> st__ , what about /etc/group ?
[14:40] <dan> nibbler__, that is a good question, I will remount partition and check
[14:40] <reenignEesreveR> st__, where is it mentioned that which particular user is  a sudoer?
[14:41] <virfrojan> what is jaunty ppa?
[14:41] <nibbler__> reenignEesreveR, he'd be a member of the sudoers group?
[14:41] <st__> reenignEesreveR, groups i believe
[14:41] <reenignEesreveR> nibbler__, which file contains information about grousp?
[14:41] <virfrojan> sorry i am a newbie
[14:41] <nibbler__> virfrojan, a ppa is a personal packet archive, that is people providing extra packages. if you trust them, you can user their packages, but its all about trust (to strangers)
[14:41] <nibbler__> reenignEesreveR, /etc/group
[14:42] <nibbler__> reenignEesreveR, or some gui-tool in the system menu
[14:42] <reenignEesreveR> this seems to have scrweed up a bit for me
[14:42] <reenignEesreveR> a particular user in the system who was sudoer is no more a sudoer
[14:42] <st__> reenignEesreveR, just add him in admin group
[14:42] <virfrojan> and please answer my question :)
[14:43] <reenignEesreveR> unfortuantely i've lost admin access now :D
[14:43] <reenignEesreveR> forutnately it was a VM i was tinkering with, i can revert to a previous snapshot
[14:43] <st__> reenignEesreveR, reboot in single user mode
[14:43] <dan> nibbler__, I fucking love you
[14:44] <reenignEesreveR> but i'd still like to know if i can easily copy all users + their psswords and groups info from another machine to my machine safely
[14:44] <reenignEesreveR> is there any "documented" method?
[14:44] <virfrojan> yeah but how to download and install the wine??
[14:44] <virfrojan> thanks before for the answer
[14:44] <nibbler__> reenignEesreveR, just cp /etc/passwd and /etc/shadow - and thing about their IDs
[14:44] <nibbler__> dan: welcome ;-)
[14:44] <dan> nibbler__, turns out it didn't end up moving to where I wanted it to at all, but since it was a symbolic link it moved to the parent on /media/System
[14:44] <B-r00t> virfrojan: sudo apt-get install wine
[14:44] <reenignEesreveR> nibbler__, that didn't work for me the last time
[14:45] <st__> virfrojan, visit winehq.org and check for binaries or repo for your version
[14:45] <reenignEesreveR> nibbler__, what about their IDs?
[14:45] <nibbler__> dan: i had to think about it aswell, did not really know how this symbolic link stuff is handled my mv etc
[14:45] <dan> ActionParsnip, danboid, thanks for your help as well :D
[14:45] <st__> reenignEesreveR, unlike windows all users have same ids
[14:45] <dan> nibbler__, yeah, man what a relief, thanks so much :)
[14:46] <v_v> reenignEesreveR: usually the acoount information is related to the /etc/passwd* /etc/shadow* /etc/group* /etc/sudoers   . as far as i know
[14:46] <st__> reenignEesreveR, you should use diff tool to merge them, not just copy over
[14:46] <nibbler__> reenignEesreveR, well, if you have a user ben as only user on machine A and a tom on B, they most likely have the same id (1000 that is) - files belong to user-ids, not to usernames. so if you copy shadow/passwd you'll change the owner name of files and dirs that belong to user 1000
[14:46] <dan> ActionParsnip, and now time to buy me an external :P
[14:47] <v_v> reenignEesreveR: and if you want the passwords kept the same, you need to make sure the encrytion is the same on the two systems
[14:47] <reenignEesreveR> the case is, i wanna make a replica of the two machines ... without doing a low level disk replica
[14:48] <nibbler__> dan: yep, its all about backups... my default answer when customers, friend, whatever or the like ask me how to recover after a misdelete, crash whatever: "copy the date from you backup" - if you dont have a backup just expect your data to be gone sooner or later
[14:48] <reenignEesreveR> so i installed the same OS (ubuntu 8.04) from scratch
[14:48] <reenignEesreveR> and installed the same packages. Now I wanna setup same users + groups as well ... could it be posssible to just copy over the files or use some tool for this?
[14:48] <dan> nibbler__, :D I'll have to go buy that 1.5TB drive I was eyeing today after all then, thanks again!
[14:49] <virfrojan> ok thanks B-r00t and st__

[14:58] <andy_> hey guys im so stuck on this problem. I am running NX but i cant open up a terminal (bash) via the client
[14:58] <AndyGraybeal> in 'lockdown-editor' i have unchecked 'lock down panels' and i still cannot edit my panels (as another user) after i log on / log out, am i missing something?
[14:58] <dr0id> Pici: just learning hehe
[14:58] <StaRetji> folks, I have strange situation. I have a.file on local machine and a.file on remote machine. So, a.file on remote machine is changed and there is content inside (text file). wget -n seems to download the file and overwrite existing (as expected). But, for some reason, once a.file is overwritten, when I open, file is empty, in other words, no text is present inside the file.
[14:58] <StaRetji> Can someone just give me a hint what could cause such a behaviour?
[14:58] <StaRetji> I also tried wget -q /remote/path/to/the/file -O /local/path/to/the/file
[14:58] <StaRetji> I don't care if it is downloaded every time and overwritten, just want to be sure that local and remote files are always the same

[15:12] <ActionParsnip> ottar: yuo havent answered my question
[15:12] <Pulsewidth> What's the best way to remove Pulseaudio in Maverick?
[15:13] <B-r00t> Pulsewidth: sudo apt-get remove pulseaudio
[15:13] <Pulsewidth> B-r00t, and then everything will use ALSA instead?
[15:13] <B-r00t> yes
[15:13] <Pulsewidth> Thanks
[15:13] <B-r00t> if you set programs to use ALSA
[15:13] <buckerss> @tieinv that doesnt sound promising. id be using skype on a netbook, which would be fustrating to have to plug an additional mic in when i have one already
[15:14] <battlehands> hello?

[15:18] <Dr_Willis> ActionParsnip:  I put an Apple Sticker on my Toshiba laptop. :) does that count.
[15:18] <booduklee> And only use the bridge can work,
[15:18] <andy_> ahhhhh why nx whyyyy? i just want you to let me open up 1 terminal
[15:19] <buckerss> @action hey, yah i can see myself when cheese starts, so that is good news. in the skype app, when i make a test call though, i cant hear myself. also, maybe i am just an idiot, but i cant seem to find the video call button in the linux version of skype. just the 'audio' call button.
[15:19] <ActionParsnip> ottar: what driver version does nvidia-settings say you are using currently?
[15:19] <booduklee> Ah,no ,I want to use pietty to connect to my vmare linux,and i can't find why nat can't determine ip address
[15:20] <ActionParsnip> Dr_Willis: hahaha definately, probably runs the same speed and cost half the price
[15:20] <booduklee> Does anyone give me some ideas?
[15:21] <mrbox> anyone successfully compile gnome shell from git? #gnome is a ghost town

[15:22] <booduklee> not good
[15:22] <booduklee> i don't like

[15:26] <ottar_> !ask how can i avoid the "update lines"? : http://dl.dropbox.com/u/13201453/Skjermdump.png
[15:26] <Pici> rooks: Use the -n argument followed by the number of lines.

[15:26] <Aufwind> >	I want to parse some pdf documents for certain parts. (Affiliations) They pdf-files do have the same format. Would it be a good idea to first convert the pdf to xml and then to parse the xml files? Or is there a better approach?
[15:26] <e-anima> anyone is a former lightroom user and has switched to lightzone or others?
[15:27] <rooks> Pici, thx i guess itll work too :)
[15:27] <mil0> can someone help me with a shell script? How do I count the number of characters stored in a variable, including spaces?
[15:27] <ActionParsnip> ottar_: what video driver does nvidia-settings say you are using?
[15:27] <lazukars> How do you install a .tar file that has already been configured.  I have downloaded a tar.gz and when I run ./configure it returns "No such file or Directory"
[15:27] <ActionParsnip> mil0: the guys ni #bash may be able to help too
[15:28] <dajhorn> mil0: Echo it through `wc` with the counting option that you want.
[15:28] <Dr_Willis> lazukars:  normally the commands are  - './configure' 'make' 'sudo make install'
[15:28] <ActionParsnip> lazukars: then either there is no configure to run, or you are in the wrong directory
[15:28] <ottar_> ActionParsnip: the latest 260.19.21
[15:28] <tck9> i have ubuntu 8.04, what's the easiest/safest way to upgrade glibc to fix the recent local privilege escalation vulnerability in glibc?
[15:28] <ActionParsnip> ottar_: ok then try: sudo nvidia-xconfig    and restart X, may help
[15:28] <Ascavasaion> Where is the anonymous directory for vsftpd
[15:29] <ottar_> how do i restart? ctrl-alt-f1 -> f7?
[15:29] <ottar_> thank you for replying, btw ;)
[15:29] <qube> ctrl + alt + backspace
[15:29] <ottar_> ok, thanks
[15:30] <qube> or sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart
[15:30] <lazukars> ActionParsnip: well it prob. does not need configure.  Two questions though.  Where should untarred folder be placed ( home directory ? )?  How do you install the folder so that it shows up as a program.  Applications > Programming >  etc.  ?
[15:30] <ActionParsnip> lazukars: what are you installing?
[15:30] <lazukars> eclipse
[15:30] <ActionParsnip> !info eclipse
[15:30] <Dr_Willis> lazukars:  it can go anywhere.. the make install will put it where it should be..
[15:31] <ActionParsnip> lazukars: its in the repo
[15:31] <Dr_Willis> cant say that ive ever used eclipse. :)
[15:31] <NeoKipling> /etc/init/tor.conf doesn't work ,how to write it?
[15:31] <lazukars> ActionParsnip:  I need a special version though
[15:31] <tobylane> Does anyone know of a program or website that will translate language files?
[15:31] <lazukars> ActionParsnip:  Here is where I downloaded it: http://eclipsesource.com/en/downloads/eclipse-galileo-download/
[15:31] <dajhorn> tck9: Hardy is still supported, so it is still getting patched.  If you need it early, then look at enabling the hardy-proposed section.
[15:32] <lazukars> 32b 3.5.2 version
[15:32] <Dr_Willis> NeoKipling:  take one of the other .conf files in there as an example perhaps.
[15:32] <Pici> tck9: That update should have come through on Oct 22.
[15:32] <ottar> ActionParsnip: it did not solve the problem
[15:32] <lazukars> Dr_Willis: you're luck, eclipse is a piece of shit
[15:32] <Pici> lazukars: Please mind your language here
[15:33] <lazukars> sorry
[15:33] <ActionParsnip> lazukars: why use the archive when it's already in the repos?
[15:33] <NeoKipling> Dr_Willis, I do tye this, the other work well ,but tor didn't work.
[15:33] <Pici> tck9: See the changelogs for 2.7-10ubuntu7 here: https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/glibc
[15:33] <lazukars> ActionParsnip:  I need 3.5.2.  The repo is version 3.6.1 or something like that
[15:34] <tck9> dajhorn: are there any docs for updating glibc with hardy-proposed? since glibc is really critical and can break the system if not done properly, i'm trying to be really careful with this
[15:34] <Dr_Willis> NeoKipling:  you could just start from /etc/rc.local  I havent played with tor in ages. There used to be a wiki page on setting it up in ubuntu
[15:34] <dajhorn> First, do you mean the AVX bug?  LP #662511
[15:34] <ActionParsnip> lazukars: i see, then read the README file, it will tell you how to install it
[15:34] <dajhorn> tck9: Do you mean the AVX bug?  LP #662511   It might not apply to the older glibc.
[15:35] <lazukars> ActionParsnip: hitting myself in the head
[15:35] <tck9> http://freshmeat.net/articles/ubuntu-new-gnu-c-library-packages-fix-security-vulnerability
[15:35] <tck9> that's the one i'm talking about
[15:35] <tck9> i tested it out and it's vulnerable
[15:36] <NeoKipling> Thanks Dr_Willis, yes, I know. I just think test upstart
[15:36] <Pici> tck9: And did you file a bug or anything?
[15:36] <dajhorn> tck9: Double-check that you have hardy-security enabled.
[15:36] <tck9> dajhorn: how do i check that?
[15:37] <dajhorn> tck9:  Look at your /etc/apt/sources.list file.  Or run something like `apt-cache policy glibc`.
[15:37] <sisif> Hello guys. What is the best driver for Ati at this moment? I`m having huge issues with both the closed and OS one ..
[15:38] <buckerss> ActionParsnip: ahh, my wireless has decided to stop working, so im kinda sol atm. ill try for a bit longer and then i may have to abandon this. thanks tho. i type the above in terminal, ya?
[15:38] <jitu> sisif, you may try fglrx
[15:38] <ottar> How do i get rid of these update-lines: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/13201453/Skjermdump.png Latest drivers nvidia 260.19.21 for gtx 285m card
[15:39] <ActionParsnip> buckerss: yes, its a terminal command, if its good you can make a script or alias
[15:39] <tck9> "unable to locate policy glibc"
[15:39] <tck9> isn't it called libc6?
[15:39] <ActionParsnip> ottar: tried a different refresh rate?
[15:39] <tck9> libc6: Installed: 2.7-10ubuntu6 Candidate: 2.7-10ubuntu7
[15:39] <sisif> jitu, I did. both the one that comes with the distro and the one on AMD / Ati website/support
[15:39] <sisif> Neither seem to worl
[15:39] <ActionParsnip> ottar: searched for bugs to see if its a known issue?
[15:40] <ActionParsnip> ottar: searched for xorg.conf examples?
[15:40] <dli> glxgears hangs core i5 GPU(arrandale), is this a known issue?
[15:40] <jitu> sisif, do you have a old card
[15:40] <sisif> jitu, XT2400
[15:40] <ottar> different refresh rate didn nothing
[15:40] <ottar> searched google, but not quite sure what this phenomenon is called
[15:40] <ottar> will search for xorg.conf
[15:41] <jitu> sisif, do ati provide support for it, check their website
[15:41] <sisif> jitu, that is HD 2400 XT. So .. which driver do you think is better for it ?
[15:41] <Inferus> is there a disk repair util on ubuntu live cd?
[15:41] <dajhorn> tck9: That version is current in hardy-updates and blurbed in the vulnerability email, so it seems that you're updated.
[15:41] <sisif> jitu, they say they do ..
[15:41] <tck9> i think i'm still on 2.7-10ubuntu6 though
[15:41] <tck9> apt-cache poliy libc6 shows Installed: 2.7-10ubuntu6 Candidate: 2.7-10ubuntu7
[15:41] <jitu> sisif, then, fglrx probably better
[15:41] <dajhorn> tck9: Right.  Sorry.  You need to do an apt-get upgrade.
[15:42] <dajhorn> tck9:  APT is telling you that you have the unpatched version installed.
[15:42] <tck9> so just apt-get upgrade libc6 ?
[15:42] <sisif> jitu, that`s what I`m using now. But the system is crashing all the time, the display switches off, etc. Overall I have LOS of issues with it
[15:43] <dajhorn> tck9: Just `apt-get upgrade` unless you have a reason not to do a fully security upgrade.
[15:43] <tck9> i don't want to upgrade everything at once.. would just rather do glibc for now ..
[15:43] <Ascavasaion> Where is the anonymous directory for vsftpd in Ubuntu?
[15:43] <ActionParsnip> tck9: sudo apt-get -y upgrade   will do it
[15:43] <NeoKipling> Is there any other poor chinese guy using tor?
[15:43] <tck9> does apt-get have a pretend flag? so that i can see what it's going to upgrade
[15:43] <ottar> ActionParsnip, i think the problem is with powermizer,it shows that the gpu is running at minimum levels
[15:44] <jitu> sisif, have you tried nomodeset
[15:44] <dajhorn> tck9: I don't think that upgrade will take a package name.  Try `apt-get install libc6`.
[15:44] <jijo> text in my webpage looks very small. is it due to graphic card problem
[15:44] <dajhorn> tck9: You'll be given an opportunity to refuse if more packages will be installed.
[15:44] <blackshirt> hello everybody
[15:45] <tck9> ok
[15:45] <Aufwind> Let's say I downloaded a piece of software. Firefox will store it into the folder "Downloads". If I want to install it. I do have to unpack it and to run sth. like "make pieceofsoftware."  Will ubuntu copy the software to somewhere else and I can delete afterwards the installationfiles or does it only configure the downloaded and unpacked fiels?
[15:45] <sisif> jitu, no, I have not. What is that ?
[15:46] <Inferus> anyone?
[15:46] <Inferus> does ubuntu contain a scandisk esq program
[15:46] <epictetus> yes
[15:46] <epictetus> there are kinda 2 seperate things you can do
[15:46] <wen__> you chose vs or qt
[15:46] <epictetus> fsck checks filesystems
[15:47] <blackshirt> does anyone here has experience setup networking under qemu
[15:47] <blackshirt> ??
[15:47] <jitu> sisif, when you boot provide the nomodeset arg in grub
[15:47] <epictetus> and then there are also ways (unrelated to fsck) to scan for bad sectors (i.e. places on the hard disk that are going bad)
[15:47] <blackshirt> Aufwind: what do you mean ???
[15:47] <jijo> The webpages look very small, is it due to the problem of graphic card
[15:47] <ActionParsnip> ottar: that'll do it, you can remove / add the option in xorg.conf to disable that
[15:47] <sisif> jitu, and this is something I have to edit in xorg,conf or in grub ?
[15:48] <Inferus> epictetus ok thanks
[15:48] <jitu> sisif, first try in grub
[15:48] <blackshirt> does anyone here has experience setup networking under qemu ?
[15:48] <jitu> sisif, dont edit any file before being sure
[15:48] <Aufwind> blackshirt: I wanted to know if I do have to copy a program before running "make" to its destination folder or if ubuntu does that for me?
[15:49] <jitu> sisif, just type it manually in grub
[15:49] <buckerss> ActionParsnip: ah cool. okay, it gives me a preload ignored error but starts up skype anyways. still no audio. in the options i can see my web cam works when i test it though
[15:49] <sisif> jitu, I see. Thank you for the advice
[15:49] <blackshirt> Aufwind: are you mean .deb packages or something else ?
[15:50] <Aufwind> blackshirt: I downloaded pdftohtml and wanted to install it. It is a tar.gz file so I first unpacked it. The readme says I shall enter make in the terminal to install it.
[15:51] <blackshirt> Aufwind: yes, usually unpack it, compile it, and install it
[15:52] <Pici> Aufwind: That binary is in the poppler-utils package.
[15:53] <Pici> Aufwind: If you still need to compile from source, you should consider using checkinstall in place of your make install command so that it is easy to remove later if needed.
[15:53] <Pici> !checkinstall > Aufwind
[15:53] <battlehands> I am following the steps on the sound troubleshooting site, and when I enter:   wget -O alsa-info.sh http://alsa-project.org/alsa-info.sh && bash ./alsa-info.sh   I do not receive the link that the support page describes.
[15:53] <ottar> ActionParsnip, powermizer wasnt the problem after all, got the card going max performance
[15:53] <ottar> strange issue...
[15:53] <ActionParsnip> ottar: sweet move dude :)
[15:54] <Geeky-Boy> does anyone know how to get canon pixma printers to work in ubuntu 10.10 64-bit (specifically canon mp630)
[15:54] <ottar> ActionParsnip, yeah, but i still get the lines :(
[15:54] <Aufwind> Pici: Thank you, I'll have a look at it immediatly
[15:54] <ActionParsnip> ottar: try a different driver
[15:54] <blackshirt> oes anyone here has experience setup networking under qemu ?
[15:55] <repete> !seen roylez

[16:34] <ZDWAY2010> hi all
, change directory permission
[16:34] <Dr_Willis> Rick_Deckard:  gksudo gedit /path/to/file.txt  is a better way
[16:34] <Dr_Willis> Rick_Deckard:  but for /var/www/ i think theres some group you can be a member of to edit the files.
[16:34] <feri> wew
[16:35] <IrqOfdeath> anyone here ever writed a linux device driver?
[16:35] <Rick_Deckard> Dr_Willis, you really want me to type the path for editing a file each time?
[16:35] <Rick_Deckard> Dr_Willis, i suppose i switch files every few seconds
[16:36] <Rick_Deckard> o_o
[16:36] <dajhorn> Rick_Deckard: Add yourself to the www-data group, logout, login to get the new group membership, and check whether you've got enough access.
[16:37] <Rick_Deckard> how can i add myself to that group?
[16:37] <jitu> Rick_Deckard, open nautilus as root , goto properties -> permission, change it as u need
[16:37] <ben42> steven, you did not get something like "usb 3-2: new full speed USB device using uhci_hcd and address 6"
[16:37] <Dr_Willis> Rick_Deckard:  you can do 'gksudo gedit' then set up the files you edit in its bookmarks or whatever...
[16:37] <Dr_Willis> Rick_Deckard:  i dont use www/groups.. so no idea on that part.
[16:38] <dajhorn> Rick_Deckard:   System -> Administration > User Settings.   Choose your user account, and click the Manage Groups button.

[16:49] <Paddy_NI> hmm
[16:49] <TheDeadCPU> wut oO
[16:50] <sjdurfey> ok, so im trying to install flash, and I need to use the command line to do some stuff and the directory that I need to create is within /opt/google/chrome ..... the problem is that directory doesnt show up when i do an 'ls' on /opt, but the directory is most definitely there as I can navigate to it through nautilus
[16:50] <abhijeet> dajhorn, i do't want to eject them.. see my problem is like this: I have one drive called "others".. One icon is showing it is mounted ( this is due to automount) and another icon with same drive is showing unmounted.. if click the second  drive button it is showing "Drive is already mounted".
[16:50] <sjdurfey> i also cannot just cd into that directory
[16:50] <battlehands> !pastebinit
[16:50] <deww> that's just weird
[16:50] <gnat_x> I'm working on my parent's machine which is a Dell that came factory installed with Hardy LTS, a while back they upgraded to Lucid LTS. anyway, among things that no longer work is the gphotofs setup i had for their camera. essentially i created a mount and unmount button which mounted the camera so that they could transfer images. However this no longer works with lucid, and i'm at a loss as to why.
[16:51] <dajhorn> abhijeet: Is the device showing up twice encrypted?
[16:51] <abhijeet> dajhorn, no it is not encrypted..
[16:51] <battlehands> ActionParsnip, http://paste.ubuntu.com/535960/
[16:52] <abhijeet> dajhorn, i just want to remove the second icon with same name from the nautilus
[16:52] <dli> gnat_x, I found shotwell is easier than direct gphoto2, but only available since 10.10, iirc
[16:52] <Morcegolas> hi
[16:52] <abhijeet> dajhorn, do u want a screen shot
[16:52] <Morcegolas> I need your help
[16:52] <Morcegolas> I trying to get root in X
[16:52] <Morcegolas> is that possible in ubuntu?
[16:52] <ikonia> Morcegolas: why ?
[16:52] <dajhorn> abhijeet: You can permanently hide devices in Nautilus by creating a HAL file that has the volume.ignore property.  This is somewhat difficult to get right.  Do a web search for more information.
[16:52] <ActionParsnip> battlehands: i'm no good with sound issues, maybe someone here can contribute
[16:52] <deww> gnat_x: check dmesg as you plug in the camera. perhaps you need to turn camera  on
[16:53] <dli> Morcegolas, gksu, or run X as root?
[16:53] <Morcegolas> because i have teamspeak server installed in /opt/ts3 and everytime i need to update my teamspeak i need to do it in terminal and its more difficult
[16:53] <battlehands> ok

[16:54] <battlehands> I need help locating the driver version of my sound setup...
[16:54] <abhijeet> dajhorn, ok

[16:54] <alexandrosorodio> hello there is there any way to add modules to kernel without recompiling the whole kernel?
[16:54] <gnat_x> woo

[16:54] <gnat_x> deww: tried that. its on. i'm getting this error when i try to look at the mounted dir: fuse: bad mount point `Pictures/Camera': Transport endpoint is not connected
[16:54] <ikonia> alexandrosorodio: sure, compile the module, drop it in to the module tree, and depmod it
[16:54] <iceroot> alexandrosorodio: put it in the initrd or load them with grub2
[16:54] <s3r3n1t7> morcegolas its possible but unreccomended.. use gksu
[16:55] <Paddy_NI> alexandrosorodio, if it supports dkms it should be very easy
[16:55] <dajhorn> alexandrosorodio: Which module do you need?  Try to use a DKMS package if one is available.
[16:55] <deww> gnat_x: what's your mount command look like that you setup for your parents?
[16:55] <ninjai_> anyone used comodo certificates with ubuntu/thunderbird? when I click the damn verify link it just says the cert is 'installed in my certificate store'.

[16:56] <dc2447> on maverick, shell-fm now gives me 'Assertion 'p' failed at pulse/simple.c:384, function pa_simple_drain(). Aborting'

[16:56] <saulus> how can I download .deb files for another architecture than the one of my pc? (Want 32-bit)
[16:56] <Morcegolas> s3r3n1t7 i need to do cp /home/morcegolas/Desktop/* / opt/ts3. But its easier to drag and drop the folders...
[16:56] <gnat_x> deww: /usr/bin/gphotofs /home/family/Pictures/Camera
[16:57] <alexandrosorodio> to tell you the exact thing i did i compiled and installed the new wireless drivers but after that i have to enable some other modules from the kernel like mac80211 and some other for the new modules to work so how do i do that?
[16:57] <dli> saulus, better to set up a 32bit chroot for that
[16:57] <jitu> saulus, do u  want to use it in vm?
[16:57] <gnat_x> weird the error just changed. ls: reading directory Pictures/Camera/: Protocol error
[16:57] <deww> gnat_x: so i am guessing it is not automounting your camera to /home/family/Pictures/Camera, did you try manually mounting it? (don't know how to fix automagic mounting)
[16:57] <beefcakes> Wow. wine msiexec /i <steam.exe> worked perfectly.
[16:58] <battlehands> any sound gurus here?
[16:58] <ActionParsnip> saulus: packages.ubuntu.com  yuo will need ia32-libs to make them install. Easier is to use a chroot
[16:58] <gnat_x> deww: yeah, when i run it manually it outputs the second error.
[16:58] <saulus> dli: how can I do this?
[16:58] <crimeboy> have some way to put an iso file content as resository inside source.list?

[16:59] <saulus> jrib: see above
[16:59] <dajhorn> crimeboy: Not directly.  You must mount the ISO file on loopback.
[16:59] <jitu> saluas, there is a s/w out there for that

[17:00] <jrib> saulus: also, you can just use packages.ubuntu.com
[17:00] <saulus> sorry jussukka, didnt mean you
[17:00] <jrib> Morcegolas: drag them where?  Why?
[17:00] <Rick_Deckard> hey, my NAS recently died. i just plugged it into my ubuntu but it cant read or mount the hd.
[17:00] <crimeboy> dajhorn: is mounted yet
[17:00] <jrib> crimeboy: use apt-cdrom then?
[17:00] <jitu> saulus, I dont remeber the name but you can google for it
[17:01] <abhijeet> ferret_, check one "Others" is mounted while other one is blow without mount...
[17:01] <deww> gnat_x: i mean... did you try rebooting? it looks like a fuse error somewhere. not too familiar with those. i say poke in /var/log for details.
[17:01] <dli> saulus, https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebootstrapChroot
[17:01] <dajhorn> crimeboy: Depending on the ISO,  you can use a regular deb line or a cdrom line.   More information in `man sources.list` and `man apt-cdrom`.
[17:01] <gnat_x> deww: good call, will do
[17:01] <crimeboy> dajhorn: ok tks
[17:01] <jmux> I'm on Ubuntu LTS 10.04 and seeing "mountall: mounted-tmp main process (446) terminated with status 127" on boot. (fstab at http://paste.ubuntu.com/535966/)
[17:01] <ferris_> others != Others
[17:01] <dli> saulus, you can add dchroot programs to your system menu, so, quite transparent to use
[17:02] <Anarchy7> hey guys do you know how can I read cursor keys from keyboard in C programming ?
[17:02] <dajhorn> crimeboy: Welcome.   `sudo apt-cdrom -d="/my/iso/mount'`  etc.
[17:02] <saulus> !APTonCD
[17:02] <jmux> 'mountall --debug' hangs at swapon
[17:02] <felipe__> ......
[17:02] <jmux> Is there a good way to debug mountall on boot?
[17:02] <X00rt1> hello i want to make a torrent of a folder containing many files, so i can ftp it to someone else to seed - when i try to do it with transmission, it asks for a tracker but i dont want to seed the thing myself - how can i do this?
[17:02] <jrib> Anarchy7: ##c
[17:03] <Anarchy7> jrib I asked there but the answer wasnt sufficient
[17:03] <dajhorn> Anarchy7: An easy way is to import curses and use  the getkey() function.
[17:03] <X00rt1> Are there any ubuntu walkthroughs for that?
[17:03] <jrib> Anarchy7: it's not an ubuntu question, ##c is the right place for C questions, not #ubuntu
[17:03] <Anarchy7> what about conio.h
[17:03] <saulus> thanks dli jitu ActionParsnip, probably the most easy way is to use packages.ubuntu.com
[17:03] <ferris_> abhijeet, I would bet that you edited fstab and had some trouble.... and tried again but then when you rebooted there were two of each.... edit fstab and remove the duplicate drives
[17:04] <abhijeet> ferret_, check this new screen shot: http://imagebin.org/124700
[17:04] <jitu> saulus, that may lead you to broken dependency
[17:04] <abhijeet> ferret_, let me check it
[17:05] <dajhorn> X00rt1: You can't.  Torrents need a tracker, and somebody needs to seed it before it appears in alternatives like the DHT.
[17:05] <Morcegolas> jrib drag folder from desktop to /opt/ts3
[17:05] <X00rt1> dajhorn OK thanks.
[17:05] <dajhorn> X00rt1: Welcome.
[17:05] <Morcegolas> jrib this is my teamspeak server, but everytime i want to update it i have to do it by terminal...
[17:05] <jrib> Morcegolas: gksudo nautilus  (make sure you know what you are doing of course)
[17:05] <ferris_> abhijeet, others != Others (DOES NOT EQUAL)
[17:05] <PeterOyore> Hi everyone I just upgraded to Ubuntu 10.04 and my work place windows are gone any help please?
[17:05] <ferris_> i would remove the "Others" drive from fstab
[17:05] <abhijeet> ferret_, ok.. but internally they are pointing to the same drive
[17:05] <abhijeet> ferret_, i have checked the fstatb there is only one entry
[17:05] <ferris_> yes they would because they are mounting the same drive
[17:06] <ferris_> abhijeet.... my name is "ferris_" not ferret_
[17:06] <beefcakes> What does compiz --replace and metacity --replace do?
[17:06] <PeterOyore> lol
[17:06] <abhijeet> ferris_, ok...
[17:06] <jrib> beefcakes: change your window manager
[17:06] <Morcegolas> jrib Thanks
[17:07] <PeterOyore>  I just upgraded to Ubuntu 10.04 and my work place windows are gone any help please?
[17:07] <jrib> PeterOyore: not sure what you mean by "work place windows"
[17:07] <ferris_> abhijeet if you type it wrong I do not get the highlighted reply from you
[17:07] <gnat_x> PeterOyore: do you mean your workspaces?
[17:08] <abhijeet> ferris_, ok ok...
[17:08] <pankaj_sharma> from where i can get  window 7 theme for ubuntu?
[17:08] <pankaj_sharma> nkj
[17:08] <abhijeet> ferris_, then what do u suggest to resolve the issue?
[17:08] <Pici> pankaj_sharma: Check gnome-look.org
[17:08] <ferris_> abhijeet, what is in your fstab file?
[17:08] <pankaj_sharma> Pici, none of theme is working
[17:08] <PeterOyore> Abhijeet yes workplaces arthurrilke
[17:09] <abhijeet> PeterOyore, ??
[17:09] <PeterOyore> arthurrilke yes workplaces I had 4 now none
[17:09] <jitu> pankaj_sharma, try murrine
[17:09] <abhinav_singh> how to check if my system is 32 bit or 64 bit
[17:09] <pankaj_sharma> jitu, ok
[17:09] <ferris_> abhijeet, what is in your fstab file? put in pastebin
[17:10] <jrib> abhinav_singh: uname -m
[17:10] <abhijeet> ferret_, http://pastebin.com/pZi2Mqqd
[17:10] <abhijeet> ferris_, http://pastebin.com/pZi2Mqqd
[17:11] <bitabit> I am willing to enter blender chat how should I do?
[17:11] <PeterOyore> abhijeet I lost my workplaces after upgrading
[17:11] <gnat_x> PeterOyore: right click on your panel. select add to panel. look for workspace switcher
[17:11] <rfranknj> hey, how do i get into the bootloader in ubuntu 10?
[17:11] <ActionParsnip> beefcakes: thy switch window manager to what you say, copmpiz --replace starts compiz as the WM
[17:11] <abhinav_singh> uname -m prints the machine hardware name...how to find if it is 32 bir or 64 bit
[17:11] <gnat_x> PeterOyore: then fiddle the prefrences to your liking
[17:12] <ActionParsnip> abhinav_singh: i686 == 32bit, x86_64 == 64bit
[17:12] <pankaj_sharma> hi ActionParsnip
[17:12] <abhijeet> abhinav_singh, uname -a
[17:12] <abhijeet> PeterOyore, I think you are taking me as somebody else
[17:12] <abhinav_singh> oh ok...thanks man ActionParsnip
[17:12] <ActionParsnip> np :)
[17:13] <abhinav_singh> i got it abhijeet....well how are you?
[17:13] <PeterOyore> gnat Can't find "panel" I tehn added one but no workspace switcher on rt click
[17:13] <abhijeet> ferris_, did u checked the pastebin
[17:13] <abhijeet> abhinav_singh, I am fine..
[17:13] <gnat_x> PeterOyore: i mean just the thing that lists what apps you have open.
[17:13] <pwasek> Are there guest tools in xen to install drivers on the guest operating systems?
[17:13] <pwasek> ?
[17:14] <ActionParsnip> !xen
[17:14] <gnat_x> PeterOyore: by default its on the top and bottom.
[17:14] <PeterOyore> gnat_x Where is that
[17:14] <ActionParsnip> pwasek: the link may mention if it's needed
[17:14] <pwasek> ya
[17:14] <pwasek> b/c i installed windows server on'
[17:14] <pwasek> xen
[17:15] <pwasek> and its missing a SCSI driver?
[17:15] <PeterOyore> gnat_x bottom is blank grey strip
[17:15] <gnat_x> PeterOyore: yup. right click that.
[17:16] <PeterOyore> gnat_x panel info upon rt click no switcher to be seen?
[17:17] <ActionParsnip> pwasek: try in #xen  there are 266 users
[17:17] <gnat_x> PeterOyore: in the add to panel window there's no workspace switcher?
[17:18] <PeterOyore> gnat_x and when I minimize a window it's gone from view?
[17:18] <ActionParsnip> PeterOyore: right click panel -> add item and add window list
[17:19] <PeterOyore> gnat_x Ahhh THAT did it  Thanks
[17:19] <krunal> never thought that having 4 desktops wouln't be enough!
[17:19] <PeterOyore> ActionParsnip thanks too
[17:19] <gnat_x> PeterOyore: it sounds like your panel gor borked. you might want to add Window list as well (then minimize will work)
[17:19] <gnat_x> krunal: neither did i, until i started using 6. ;P
[17:20] <PeterOyore> gnat_x Ok window list
[17:20] <krunal> gnat_x, im still new at this..how do i setup 6 desktops?
[17:21] <Vamp898> hi, i have a problem with ubuntuone-client. In case of trieng to use /usr/bin/python (which is Python3 on me) it fails to load. How can i set python path to /usr/bin/python2 while compile time?
[17:21] <JohnoP> quick question. I have a folder filled with files. I wanr to tar all of the files. however I want to tar the files seperatly. So I get a tar file for each file that was in the folder. What is the commends? I assume it has something to do with find?
[17:22] <Cleaver> Hey guys, I have a problem. Starting up ubuntu after installing new nvidia drivers is making my screen flash, and it wont start up x it seems. I cant read the text because of the flash and blur, but it seems like the booter is fine ect. What can I do? I tried booting failsafe as well, same result
[17:22] <PeterOyore> gnat_x   Borked indeed That worked just fine can see all. now .thanks a BUNCH!
[17:23] <Vamp898> Cleaver: did you installed the nVidia Driver by hand or did you used the official package from the repository
[17:23] <Cleaver> I just installed and activated the one suggested by default
[17:23] <Vamp898> Cleaver: try to use the nvidia-173 one
[17:23] <JimmyPage2006> hello all .. any pptp server specialists out there ?
[17:23] <Cleaver> Hmm
[17:24] <Cleaver> I dont know how to change it, since I cant really see anything except for screen flashing when trying to boot
[17:24] <rotham> hey
[17:24] <rotham> how do i put files to the server via terminal ssh?
[17:24] <dajhorn> !justask | JimmyPage2006
[17:24] <Vamp898> Cleaver: CTRL + ALT + F1 --> login --> sudo apt-get remove nvidia-current
[17:25] <llutz> rotham: scp file user@server:/path
[17:25]  * alessiofachechi saluta e se ne va!! :D
[17:25] <JohnoP> rotham - use scp
[17:25] <JimmyPage2006> have set pptp server up and can connect from windows. What is the IP address of the server for samba shares ?
[17:25] <JohnoP> quick question. I have a folder filled with files. I wanr to tar all of the files. however I want to tar the files seperatly. So I get a tar file for each file that was in the folder. What is the commends? I assume it has something to do with find?
[17:25] <rotham> llutz: do that after im already connected to the server?
[17:26] <JohnoP> no
[17:26] <llutz> rotham: nope not from inside your session
[17:26] <rotham> ahh ok
[17:26] <rotham> cool
[17:26] <JohnoP> rotham - are you using ubuntu as your local os?
[17:26] <rotham> yes
[17:26] <rotham> johnoP: yes
[17:26] <JohnoP> rotham - open a terminal and use llutz stuff
[17:27] <xow> someone can help me with drbd ?
[17:27] <malloc_> Is it possible to set parameters for a kernel module which ubuntu loads on startup?
[17:27] <Cleaver> Vamp898: nothing happens when i press ctrl + alt + f1
[17:27] <JohnoP> xow - what do you need to know
[17:27] <dajhorn> JimmyPage2006: Try the same address as would work on the local network.   The address of the PPP session should also work if Samba is listening on all interfaces.
[17:27] <JohnoP> xow - ?
[17:27] <Cleaver> screen is flashing white, i see some lines marked with black, i suppose its text, but it's blackned out, so you cant read it
[17:27] <Cleaver> its very strange
[17:27] <Cleaver> never seen anything like it
[17:27] <Cleaver> :D
[17:28] <JohnoP>  I have a folder filled with files. I wanr to tar all of the files. however I want to tar the files seperatly. So I get a tar file for each file that was in the folder. What is the commends? I assume it has something to do with find?
[17:28] <xow> JohnoP i am installing but sometimes dont work
[17:28] <JimmyPage2006> dajhorn - tried that, but PING doesn't work (nor does samba)
[17:28] <xow> and show's erros everytimes
[17:28] <Vamp898> Cleaver: try CTRL + ALT + F2, if it still doesnt work insert the Ubuntu CD, open a Terminal, Mount the partition (mkdir bla && sudo mount /dev/sda1 ./bla) and then do a chroot into it (sudo chroot ./bla bash). After you´re inside the chroot you can do "sudo apt-get remove nvidia-current"
[17:28] <ActionParsnip> JohnoP: create a test folder to play with first, i'll be something like: find /path/to/folder -type f "*" -exec tar czvf "{}.tar.gz" {} \;    i'd ask in #bash to make sure
[17:28] <tripelb> I would like to change the sound of an error -- Ubuntu 10.04 - it makes a thump and I dont like it
[17:28] <cyrus_> exit
[17:28] <JohnoP> xow - define sometimes don't work? Your have two virtaul mounts and your writing to both of them? Or sometimes it does not see one?
[17:28] <dajhorn> JimmyPage2006: Do you have any firewalling rules?  Is ufw installed and running?
[17:28] <Cleaver> after i did ctrl + alt + f2, the flashing stopped, but the screen is still unreadable
[17:29] <Vamp898> again, i have a problem with ubuntuone-client. In case of trieng to use /usr/bin/python (which is Python3 on me) it fails to load. How can i set python path to /usr/bin/python2 while compile time?
[17:29] <JohnoP> Actionparsnip - love you loads. thasnks
[17:29] <Cleaver> Thanks for the help
[17:29] <sbaker48> I just installed a new hard drive, and writing files takes a very long time. It is mounted on /home, and writing 10M bytes to /home/foo takes over 2 minutes. Writing 10M bytes to my other drive mounted at / takes under 2 seconds. However, if I boot from the Ubuntu live CD, the write is about 2 seconds for both drives. I'm not sure where to look for the cause of the trouble.
[17:29] <JimmyPage2006> dajhorn - I use firestarter - I can connecto to VPN from Vista client and get assigned local IP as per config
[17:29] <tripelb> restate: where do I get more sounds to pick one for say, the error sound. Ubuntu 10.04 is my distro
[17:29] <xow> JohnoP i've instaled, i configure and sometimes when i try reply show's erros, type, on the secondary, i set him to secondary and dont go, it stay in unknow
[17:30] <andy__> hey guys im trying to forward x11 from another remote box. I use things vnc, and nx but they connect me to the x desktop. All I want to do is run emacs through the terminal via some program. Can you guys recommend to me what I should do?
[17:30] <PeterOyore> WooHoo it working great now! Gotta love Ubuntu and #ubuntu IRC
[17:31] <dajhorn> JimmyPage2006: Firewall rules must be recomputed each time a PPTP session goes up or down.  I know that UFW doesn't do this properly, and my guess is that Firestarter doesn't either.   Disable the firewall and try again.
[17:32] <dajhorn> JimmyPage2006: On the Vista side,  right click the connection icon and go into the session properties.  You should be able to ping the server address that it shows you.
[17:32] <JohnoP> xow - pass me the error. can I assume you mean that when the system writes the same file to both server. The secondary node shows a currupted version of the file?
[17:32] <Dr_Willis> sbaker48:  sounds like it may be the 'dma' settings.. but ive not seen those issues in years.. not even sure how to set/check them any more.
[17:33] <xow> JohnoP can i pvt with u ?
[17:33] <JimmyPage2006> dajhorn - disabling firewall works
[17:34] <nick_archer_> Hello
[17:34] <dajhorn> JimmyPage2006: Okay, you have some reading to do.  At a minimum,  you must configure Firestarter to allow interface routing (forwarding) *or* ARP on behalf of the PPTP clients.
[17:35] <JimmyPage2006> dajhorn  - hmm I found some firewall rules I put in the firestarter user-pre file which I needed to get as far as the connection to connect
[17:35] <kehcho> hi there
[17:36] <JimmyPage2006> dajhorn - I also modified sysctrl.conf to allow ipv4 forwarding
[17:36] <nick_archer_> I need a bit of help, please
[17:36] <dajhorn> JimmyPage2006: The sysctrl isn't enough.  You also need to add iptables rules to let the PPTP server act like a router.
[17:36] <nick_archer_> I have an ASUS 1005ha dual boot with WinXP and Ubuntu 10.10
[17:36] <ben42> andy__ use "ssh -X <remote.box> and then start emacs on the remote machine
[17:37] <nick_archer_> I am getting error:no such partition grub rescue>
[17:37] <nick_archer_> It will not boot with either Win disk or Ubuntu disk
[17:38] <JimmyPage2006> dajhorn - thanks - will google further. At least I have isolated the cause
[17:38] <dajhorn> JimmyPage2006: Welcome.
[17:39] <andy__> hey hen42 i do use ssh -X it is soooo slow
[17:39] <andy__> the latency is horrible
[17:40] <ActionParsnip> andy__: what apps are you forwarding?
[17:40] <andy__> emacs is one, another is qt apps
[17:40] <ben42> andy__ me is using x2go and ssh (-X), so i do not have any more ideas, sorry
[17:41] <andy__> oh so if i get x2go i can just ssh -X?
[17:41] <andy__> and it will do the forwarding for me?
[17:41] <ActionParsnip> andy__: http://www.miscdebris.net/blog/2007/06/01/speed-up-ssh-x11-forwarding/
[17:42] <ben42> andy__ x2go is using the same compression methods as nx and is similar to nx, so i do not expect that it will be faster
[17:42] <andy__> hey parsnip, i sped it up like that tutorial said but I still get lag in emacs
[17:42] <tck9> why does apt-get upgrade libc6 want to upgrade other packages like openssl, mysql, linux-image, libxml, etc .. why can't it just upgrade glibc?
[17:43] <andy__> ben42, yea i heard that as well. NX is pretty fast, but I dont think you can just open up one app on it. it forwards the entire desktop to me
[17:43] <morenazasincontr> hi
[17:43] <andy__> ben42, x2go can forward one app right?
[17:44] <hyperhippo> exit
[17:44] <hyperhippo> :I oops
[17:44] <mattcaffeine> tck9, because those applications are build on and depend on libraries in the specific version of glibc.
[17:44] <ActionParsnip> tck9: dependancies of the packages, i'd just go along with it
[17:45] <ben42> andy__ did not tried that, if i use it, i want the whole desktop .... sorry
[17:45] <Rick_Deckard> hi, i had a NAS which is now damaged. i stored 2 hd's with raid 1 in it. it was a kind of linux system. when i plug in the hd ubuntu cant read it. when i take a look into the drive management ubuntu can see the hd but i cant read it
[17:45] <Roasted_> Does anybody know if UNetBootin will take a custom XP ISO and put it on a flash drive, or is UNetBootin only for Linux based distros?
[17:45] <andy__> ben42, lol. that sucks man. I need to find a solution where i can just forward one process, like emacs
[17:45] <ActionParsnip> ben42: dependsing on what you do on the desktop there may be a sleeker way
[17:46] <tck9> but even doing 'apt-get upgrade openssl' shows all those other packages .. i don't think things like mysql, libxml, the kernel, etc would be deps
[17:46] <tck9> seems like upgrade can all be used to update all packages and doesn't take paramters for specific packages
[17:47] <Pici> tck9: apt-get upgrade doesn't take any arguments.
[17:47] <djs> Noobuntu is switching to rolling release?
[17:47] <tripelb> I do the things to change the error-sound but it does not change. Please help me. I want it to be, say "glass" or "drip" instead of that loud "thonk" that is default.
[17:47] <Pici> tck9: I think someone suggested for you to use: 'apt-get install libc6' earlier
[17:47] <tck9> Pici: yeah, that's the conclusion i arrived at..
[17:47] <ActionParsnip> djs: Ubuntu maybe, yes
[17:47]  * om26er giggles
[17:47] <tck9> i'll try apt-get install libc6
[17:47] <chuy_max> hey guys do you know of a tool that allows me to add a background to pdf files? (console based)
[17:47] <djs> ActionParsnip: Mark Shuttleworth went in space?
[17:47] <ActionParsnip> djs: nubuntu is offtopic here if that's what you mean
[17:48] <tripelb> second question: can anyone else get 100 results in google search?  I can on windows. I cant on Ubuntu.
[17:48] <djs> What's nubuntu?
[17:48] <Rick_Deckard> any idea?
[17:48] <Morcegolas> hi
[17:48] <ActionParsnip> tripelb: tried a different browser
[17:48] <tripelb> o/ to ActionParsnip
[17:48] <om26er> tripelb, i would say its the job of the web browser
[17:48] <ActionParsnip> djs: go find out ;)
[17:48] <djs> no!
[17:48] <Pici> djs: rumour and speculation is offtopic for this channel, try #ubuntu-offtopic if you want to discuss.
[17:49] <tripelb> I did. ActionParsnip same in chrome and firefox.  My question is "Does it work for anyone here?"  -- That might distinguish if it is my installation or a system problem.
[17:49] <Morcegolas> everytime i restart my ubuntu i have to open terminal and execute cd /opt/teamtalk/server and run ./teamtalk -d Can i make this run auto?
[17:49] <ninjai_> can anybody tell me _where_ comodo download it's certificates for my email when I sign up for a free cert?
[17:49] <tripelb> I even trashed my FF cookie file.
[17:50] <Rick_Deckard>  hi, i had a NAS which is now damaged. i stored 2 hd's with raid 1 in it. it was a kind of linux system. when i plug in the hd ubuntu cant read it. when i take a look into the drive management ubuntu can see the hd but i cant read it
[17:50] <ActionParsnip> tripelb: not sure, is it in the options of google? like search prefs?
[17:50] <tripelb> ninjai, maybe in downloads
[17:50] <trijntje> tripelb, go to 'advanced search' and set results to 100 ;)
[17:51] <om26er> tripelb, does not work if instant search is on.
[17:51] <om26er> *works without it
[17:51] <metallico> hi guys, I have problem with the compiler failing to include any files from the asm directory
[17:51] <metallico> if in the code a file is included as <asm/file.h> the compiler will return fatal error that the file doesnt exist
[17:51] <Rick_Deckard> can anyone help me?
[17:51] <metallico> if i replace it with the full path it will work
[17:52] <tripelb> yes, that's where you set it.  Yes I have done that.. set it to 100. trijntje -- time after time. I've never had it work. Instant search is off. Has been. Do you get 100? Please try. om26er  ActionParsnip
[17:52] <om26er> tripelb, yes i have 100results
[17:52] <tripelb> <-- one of the few persons who actually uses more than 10 google results, often.
[17:52] <tripelb> om26er in chrome or FF?
[17:53] <om26er> tripelb, chromium
[17:53] <tripelb> OK then  om26er I  have an issue. I also cant change my default sound. otherwise. I'm fine.
[17:53] <ActionParsnip> tripelb: i'm at work on WinXP, no can do
[17:53] <ActionParsnip> tripelb: i can test in about 3 hours
[17:54] <tripelb> ActionParsnip, I understand. :D and you are a CLI-guy too.  I thank you for your help.
[17:54] <tripelb> ActionParsnip, would you PM me about it, so  see your answer. TY
[17:54] <tripelb> I'll be back about this.
[17:55] <ActionParsnip> tripelb: sure
[17:56] <tripelb> When I do the GUI thing to change my system sound the new sound plays in the dialog box.. It is chose. I then pick close. Nothing changes.  What could be wrong what can I do.
[17:56] <battlehands> does anyone know the website for the sound support in ubuntu??
[17:57] <om26er> !sound | battlehands
[17:57] <battlehands> ubottu, thanks
[17:58] <rolandpish> I need to choose the "recovery-mode" at grub startup menu, but the menu never shows up and it just loads the menu(or kernel) entry specified at: set default="0". How can I place a "delay" in grub.cfg file?
[17:59] <Morcegolas> everytime i restart my ubuntu i have to open terminal and execute cd /opt/teamtalk/server and run ./teamtalk -d Can i make this run auto?
[17:59] <tripelb> OK I did the sound. It works. What did I do differently?? --- I chose sound-theme ubuntu, then chose the new sound. sound -theme changed to custom. I clicked close.  --- That is all. That should be default (sound theme ubuntu) but it isnt set on install. Odd, a micro-user-feel bug.
[17:59] <DanRock007> you can
[18:00]  * tripelb bows out
[18:00] <jrib> !startup | Morcegolas
[18:00] <ActionParsnip> rolandpish: hold shift at boot
[18:01] <Morcegolas> ok
[18:01] <Morcegolas> thanks
[18:01] <kiwi_> hi. i upgraded to netbook 10.04. since then jackd dependent audio output doesnt work anymore. plain audio e.g. vlc, audacious etc. works fine. whats that jackd problem?
[18:01] <rolandpish> ActionParsnip, thanks! And, is there a command/line I can place into grub.cfg to force the delay every time I boot?
[18:02] <xevious> Is there a graphical init script manager in Ubuntu? What's the proper Ubuntu-approved way of managing runlevels?
[18:02] <kiwi_> sorry, i upgraded to 10.10
[18:03] <kiwi_> not 10.04
[18:03] <glebihan> rolandpish: I think this is done with "set timeout 5" for example
[18:04] <ActionParsnip> rolandpish: not sure, could check the !grub2 factoid
[18:04] <glebihan> rolandpish: sorry "set timeout=5"
[18:05] <rolandpish> glebihan, thanks. Should I place it under set default="0"? Or is there a specific section where it should be placed?
[18:05] <UbuntuLily_> I am running 10.10x64 which was upgraded from 10.4.  I recently discovered that my bluetooth doesn't seem to be being detected (Maybe happened when I upgraded) what can I do to reenable this?
[18:06] <arriva13> i am new to ubuntu, i just installed it from windows 7 and i want to ask, where can i find my C: disc...becasue i only can see my D: DATA disc...can anyone help me with that?? thanks a lot :)
[18:06] <glebihan> rolandpish: doesn't really matter, just place it before the menu entries list
[18:06] <saulus> hi, I got the new Desire-z (similar to the g2, rooted) and like to connect the phone to the ad-hoc network of my computer. The desire-z does not show the ad-hoc network, while the app "wifi analyzer" does. Can you help me connecting the network?
[18:06] <rolandpish> glebihan, cool, thanks a lot!
[18:06] <glebihan> rolandpish: you're welcome
[18:06] <rolandpish> ActionParsnip, thanks for your help also!
[18:07] <DanRock007> arrival13 did you do a clean install or made an extra partition? ubuntu has no C: drive, all your programs are installed into file system and your folder is there too
[18:08] <DanRock007> if you made an extra partition you could recognize it by the size
[18:08] <arriva13> i installed it as a program from win 7
[18:08] <mr_daniel> I have an ubuntu server and want to install VirtualBox non-free edition. I want to update my sources.list to automatically get updated version of VirtualBox. The apt-get lines are available here: http://www.virtualbox.org/wiki/Linux_Downloads#Debian-basedLinuxdistributions
[18:08] <DanRock007> ow ok
[18:08] <arriva13> yes, i mean it as my windows partition C:
[18:09] <mr_daniel> My question: should I edit /etc/sources.list manually with a text editor? Or is there a better way to modify the /etc/sources.list?
[18:09] <DanRock007> arrival13 it might be under places in the upper left corner
[18:09] <mr_daniel> s/sources.list/apt\/sources.list
[18:10] <DanRock007> and you will see a XXXgb filesystem
[18:10] <glebihan> mr_daniel: editing sources.list manually is ok
[18:11] <IdleOne> mr_daniel: you can use Software Sources to edit your sources.list but if you are comfortable making changes to it manually that is fine also.
[18:11] <IdleOne> mr_daniel: remember to sudo apt-get update after making changes
[18:12] <glebihan> IdleOne: mr_daniel is running ubuntu server, so I guess he doesn't have the Software Sources tool
[18:12] <IdleOne> glebihan: in that case, yeah manually
[18:12] <glebihan> IdleOne: well, not sure, as he's trying to install VirtualBox
[18:13] <mr_daniel> ok, then I'll edit sources.list manually, thanks glebihan ; IdleOne: I have an Ubuntu *server*, so unfortunately there is no 'Software Sources GUI' available, but this is ok
[18:13] <SoY_uN_tSuNaMi> hola
[18:13] <ActionParsnip> mr_daniel: if you have a ppa to add and know the ppa link you can use add-apt-repository link   to add it
[18:13] <SoY_uN_tSuNaMi> D:
[18:13] <SoY_uN_tSuNaMi> oh nooo!!!
[18:13] <SoY_uN_tSuNaMi> Dirty dianaaaa
[18:13] <dantix> hi all, I've just noticed of the VM Host option on package selector of 10.10 Server installer. What that means? what kind of virtualization support adds?

[18:14] <r000t_editsuite> Hey. I was trying to change my password and I used sudo passwd, and I noticed that my password didn't change. I think I just set a password on the root account. How do I lock it back down?
[18:15] <ssureshot> sudo passwd root
[18:15] <glebihan> r000t_editsuite: sudo passwd root -l
[18:15] <r000t_editsuite> thx
[18:16] <glebihan> r000t_editsuite: and to change your own password, don't use sudo, just passwd
[18:16] <rigved> r000t_editsuite: sudo passwd -p '!' root
[18:17] <BajK_> Ubuntu does support bluray drives/disks?
[18:17] <dajhorn> dantix: The virt-host task installs KVM and the packages required to run it.
[18:17] <BajK_> discs
[18:17] <ActionParsnip> r000t_editsuite: you just need to run: passwd; sudo usermod -p '!' root
[18:18] <Daniel_Rollt> Anyone know a solution for the No Screens error
[18:18] <ActionParsnip> r000t_editsuite: the 2nd command undoes what you did with sudo passwd
[18:18] <r000t_editsuite> ok
[18:18] <ActionParsnip> BajK_: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats/BluRayAndHDDVD
[18:19] <r000t_editsuite> Also I have a general question. I have a 1.6ghz single core laptop, and a 2.4ghz single core desktop. Both CPUs have the same socket. Now which one would you logically expect to be fasteR?
[18:19] <kotelette> salut
[18:19] <BajK_> ActionParsnip: oh well, when reading this, I dont even WANT to watch bluray. stupid ass.... with their restrictions
[18:19] <ActionParsnip> r000t_editsuite: the 2.4Ghz
[18:20] <kotelette> hi i have a probleme with language in my ubuntu
[18:20] <kotelette> could you help me
[18:20] <kotelette> ?
[18:20] <rigved> !ask | kotelette
[18:20] <r000t_editsuite> iknorite? The only difference I can find is that the laptop had a very crappy ATI card, and the 2.4 has a integrated graphics. The laptop handled everything fine, but the desktop like freezes when you open more than one tab in a browser. This is on any OS, Windows, Ubuntu, or Crunchbang
[18:20] <dajhorn> BajK_: Bluray is tolerable through AnyDVD.  Ubuntu isn't likely to get a Bluray player until the VLC libbluray is usable.
[18:20] <kotelette> rigved, ok
[18:21] <BajK_> dajhorn: well, okay, I just wanted to ask. I am not really wanting to buy a bluray (since you can download movies in the same quality :P)
[18:21] <kotelette> i want to install french language in my ubuntu but it does'nt work
[18:21] <kotelette> even with language support
[18:22] <IdleOne> !locales | kotelette
[18:22] <r000t_editsuite> So I like need to find a really cheap PCI graphics card to take the load off of this nightmare
[18:22] <kotelette> thank u
[18:22] <Daniel_Rollt> Can anyone lead me in the right direction of where to get help with the "No Screens Error" . I recently dual-booted Ubuntu with Windows 7 and its giving me headaches...
[18:23] <h4x0l2> tigerdirect.com   saw some good prices for graphics cards..
[18:23] <cozzen> does anyone have a list of relativly new native linux games?
[18:23] <glebihan> !ot | h4x0l2
[18:23] <dli> Daniel_Rollt, what video card? lspci|grep VGA
[18:23] <h4x0l2> GTA4 has been ported via wine
[18:23] <Daniel_Rollt> Let me check....
[18:23] <ActionParsnip> r000t_editsuite: grab a cheapo nvidia 7xxx or 8xxx and you'll be smug
[18:24] <ActionParsnip> h4x0l2: not really a port if it uses wine
[18:25] <r000t_editsuite> Hm. APT authentication issue
[18:26] <h4x0l2> Anyone got webcam to record video USB via cheese?
[18:26] <Daniel_Rollt> Dli: Its an Intel(R) 82852/82855 GM/GME
[18:26] <sbaker48> about my previous question about my harddrive speed: I think I figured it out. It was mounted as sync instead of async
[18:27] <dli> Daniel_Rollt, it should be supported auto. do you have problem startx?
[18:27] <Daniel_Rollt> Yeah I tried startx but it comes up with: "Fatal Error: No screens"
[18:27] <r000t_editsuite> 14 dollar GeForce 8400
[18:27] <tripelb> I fixed my google search ActionParsnip . What did I do. In preferences I changed some things. OK it does save.. - Then I turned instant off (it was set on and I didnt see it??) then on. then off.   Then I changed settings to 100 again.  Bingo !!
[18:27] <h4x0l2> 8400...
[18:27] <r000t_editsuite> holy s*** I was expecting ten times that
[18:28] <SmokeyD> hey everyone. Where is the /etc/init.d/dkms_autoinstaller script in Ubuntu Maverick? I have installed dkms, but it's not there.
[18:28] <dli> Daniel_Rollt, what about sudo X -configure
[18:28] <Daniel_Rollt> I'll try that..Thanks!
[18:28] <r000t_editsuite> And h4x0l2 Most webcams will work. Every HP one I've tried works with minimal setup
[18:28] <tripelb> ActionParsnip, oh forgot one thing. I did delete the google cookies before I did all that. But that didnt help.
[18:29]  * tripelb dances in Joy!  Anyone else want a Belgian beer?
[18:29] <dajhorn> SmokeyD: DKMS is an initramfs hook.  If you want to change something, then start at /etc/dkms or /etc/kernel.
[18:29] <h4x0l2> Takes snapshots, and view is realtime, just no video is actually recording
[18:29] <h4x0l2> when I go to playback, it is just a photo (or single video frame)
[18:29] <h4x0l2> .ogv
[18:30] <ActionParsnip> tripelb: why would you want 100 results, anything outside of 20 or so will be fairly useless
[18:30] <SmokeyD> dajhorn: I want to auto install a kernel module specific for my laptop. They provided docs on how to set it up using dkms, and I should run dkms_autoinstaller to make it build the module and install it.
[18:30] <Datz> hi, how can I stop cron services for a user temporarirly?
[18:31] <dajhorn> SmokeyD: Which module?  If you have a DEB that you installed, then you could also try the `m-a` command.
[18:32] <dajhorn> SmokeyD: If you really want to call that script directly... /usr/lib/dkms/dkms_autoinstaller
[18:32] <smallfoot-> i want use GPT not MBR
[18:32] <smallfoot-> MBR is old legacy crap
[18:32] <smallfoot-> GPT is the future
[18:32] <smallfoot-> is Ubuntu gonna be legacy or be part of the future?
[18:32] <sickn3ss> I seem to have a problem with kernel 2.6.35.8 it won't boot only with noapic acpi=off is it a known issue, does it have a fix ?
[18:32] <SmokeyD> dajhorn: no there is no deb. I really want to call that script. Thanks.  If you're interested, see http://global-social.net/tiki-view_blog.php?blogId=3#sony-VGN-Zseries-janitor
[18:33] <Vhozard> Ubuntu To Turn Into A Rolling-Release Distribution?
[18:34] <share> hello
[18:34] <dajhorn> sickn3ss: You should provide model and manufacturer information when you ask that kind of question.  There is some Launchpad chatter regarding new Intel i7 cpus being buggy.
[18:34] <dauthiwarlord> I need to use a generic driver for my display, because of gpu issues, trying to change screen resolution with "xrandr -q" and says :Screen 0: minimum 640 x 480, current 800 x 600, maximum 800 x 600 | default connected 800x600+0+0 0mm x 0mm |   800x600      61.0* |   640x480        60.0
[18:34] <share> Is it possible to make unrar extract faster; make it use more the CPU?
[18:34] <dauthiwarlord> can I add more resolution screens ?
[18:35] <sickn3ss> dajhorn, I have a laptop Fujitsu siemens esprimo mobile v6535, using intel
[18:35] <h4x0l2> dauth, what MOBO you running
[18:35] <dauthiwarlord> when I tried to change it ... only says .. display port or output don't recognized ! ignore*
[18:35] <ActionParsnip> share: set a lower nice value
[18:35] <smallfoot-> Vhozard, idk, maybe... mark mentioned he have interest in that
[18:35] <Vhozard> smallfoot- i read it on phoronix
[18:36] <dajhorn> share: No.  If unrar isn't using all of your CPU, then it is probably limited by disk write speed.
[18:36] <Vhozard> it would be a massive progression!
[18:36] <smallfoot-> Vhozard, ya, its on slashdot too
[18:36] <dauthiwarlord> VGN-FZ190FE ... gpu is out of service ... and I want to use it .. still with the prob .. with this free driver ... but with better resolution screen ...
[18:36] <ActionParsnip> share: something like -10 should make it nice and fast
[18:37] <h4x0l2> are you dual booting?
[18:37] <dauthiwarlord> and If I install the original nvidia driver (Geforce 8400m GT) ... just don't load the OS, because of gpu issues ...
[18:37] <dauthiwarlord> so I want to use the open driver .. :3
[18:37] <dauthiwarlord> or generic one!
[18:38] <share> ActionParsnip: can you give me a command example? i just use unrar e file.rar
[18:38] <Vhozard> sudo nice -10 unrar e file.rar ?
[18:38] <dauthiwarlord> trying to uprise a little .. like 1024 x 768 ... or better 1280 x 800 (15.1")

[18:39] <ActionParsnip> share: nice -10 unrar e file.rar
[18:39] <h4x0l2> try running that under windows via wine...
[18:39] <h4x0l2> then reboot
[18:39] <dajhorn> dauthiwarlord: Rename or delete the /etc/X11/xorg.conf file and reboot.  The computer will use the open driver.
[18:39] <share> ActionParsnip: tks im just reading nice man
[18:40] <h4x0l2> worked for my audio driver, might work for your video driver
[18:40] <dauthiwarlord> ..@dajhorn I'm using open driver ... but only have 800 x600 ... i want more res ... if I delete it .. It could be the same
[18:40] <BigMao> Hi there, there is a Launchpad bug that affects me and 10 other people.  I really wish that a developer would work on this as it is a pretty debilitating bug for me, but it has been up there since late April, the importance is still Undecided and the bug is still Unassigned.  Is there anything I can do?  Thanks!
[18:41] <Pici> BigMao: What bug?

[18:46] <h4x0l2> input it, reboot with graphical off disk, check all video/security/system settings that way.
[18:46] <shane4ubuntu> is there a way in linux to tell when a file was written to the disk, not the date it was modified, but when it was written to the disk?  Like a file installed today, how do I tell what was newly written to the disk?

[18:46] <riverfr0zen> Hi, I've created an upstart script on Lucid as /etc/init/my-job.conf. However, when I try to run: start my-job, I keep getting "start: Unknown job: my-job". Are there some other steps I need to take before upstart will see my startup script?
[18:47] <share> input output nice
[18:47] <dajhorn> shane4ubuntu: Maybe the file ctime is what you want.
[18:47] <ActionParsnip> khelll: do you use an nvidia / ati video card?
[18:47] <ActionParsnip> share: whats it do?
[18:47] <shane4ubuntu> dajhorn: ok, how do I see that?  ctime filename?
[18:47] <h4x0l2> ubuntunoobz, it sounds liuke this was enabled via setup to me. if it is integrated into ext4, i dont think you can shut it off without a reinstall
[18:47] <khelll> actionparsnip, yes i do
[18:47] <ubuntunoobz> damn
[18:47] <Pici> BigMao: What version of xorg-server do you have on that computer? (What does apt-cache polixy xorg-server say)?
[18:47] <wildc4rd> evenin' all
[18:47] <shane4ubuntu> dajhorn: for example, I tried, ls -l and that shows the modification date.
[18:48] <h4x0l2> then again, i never tried to shut it off, so it may be possible
[18:48] <ActionParsnip> khelll: remove the driver in the terminal, then reboot to the open driver, then reinstall the proprietary driver
[18:48] <dajhorn> shane4ubuntu: ls -c -lt
[18:48] <khelll> actionparsnip, how do i do that?
[18:48] <dajhorn> shane4ubuntu:   `man ls` has some commentary for ctime.
[18:49] <shane4ubuntu> dajhorn: that is it exactly!  Thanks
[18:49] <dajhorn> shane4ubuntu: Welcome.
[18:49] <shane4ubuntu> dajhorn: I assume that ctime is creation time?
[18:49] <khelll> actionparsnip, how to remove a driver
[18:49] <ActionParsnip> khelll: dpkg -l | grep nvidia    or   dpkg -l | grep ati    et, remove the package which provides the driver, i'd websearch a little first but that will start you
[18:49] <share> ActionParsnip: just found this article http://friedcpu.wordpress.com/2007/07/17/why-arent-you-using-ionice-yet/
[18:49] <dajhorn> shane4ubuntu: Yes.   ctime is creation,  a is access, and m is modification.

[18:51] <dauthiwarlord> ohh kk ... I got it ...
[18:51] <BigMao> Pici, I'm using Lucid (10.04 LTS)
[18:51] <blinkyb> I remove Trash from panel by mistake, how can I bring it back?? it is the panel where it have multiple windows.
[18:52] <h4x0l2> try an install of that in wine... i did that with my audio drivers, installed via wine, then reboot and it automagically worked... lol
[18:52] <Dr_Willis_> blinkyb:  right clickm, add to panel
[18:52] <dauthiwarlord> Look @h4x0l2 ... my gpu is dead ... with screen issues .. on real OS .. and on linux cant load with original drivers ...
[18:52] <swim> The update information is outdated.  This may be caused by network problems or by a repository that is no longer available.  Please update manually by clicking on this icon and then selecting 'Check for Updates'and check if some of the repositories fail.
[18:52] <dauthiwarlord> and only works on linux with lxde or xorg with low stress video ...
[18:52] <dauthiwarlord> so .. open drivers works fine ...
[18:52] <dauthiwarlord> I just want to change screen resolution ...
[18:52] <Pici> BigMao: Oh, right. Can you tell me what version this reponds with: apt-cache showsrc xorg-server | grep Version
[18:52] <dauthiwarlord> xD
[18:53] <dauthiwarlord> I only have 800 x 600
[18:53] <dauthiwarlord> and lower
[18:53] <dauthiwarlord> I wan more ... :3
[18:53] <swim> this is what displays when i mouse over this caution box that has been popping up on my top panel: The update information is outdated.  This may be caused by network problems or by a repository that is no longer available.  Please update manually by clicking on this icon and then selecting 'Check for Updates'and check if some of the repositories fail.
[18:53] <h4x0l2> right, you may be able to do this if you run the driver through wine, then just use the sony interface for screen modifications
[18:53] <dajhorn> dauthiwarlord: The maximum resolution on this computer is 1024x768.   Both of the nv and nvidia drivers should support this resolution without tweaking.
[18:53] <ActionParsnip> dauthiwarlord: lxde is sweeet :)
[18:53] <blinkyb> Dr_Willis_: I can't find "add to panel" the only place where I can find "Trash" is within any folder exactly on the side list along with other folders.
[18:54] <dajhorn> dauthiwarlord: Did you delete the /etc/X11/xorg.conf file as suggested earlier?
[18:54] <dauthiwarlord> I don't have xorg.conf file .. xD
[18:54] <h4x0l2> ^--- seconded

[18:55] <blinkyb> Dr_Willis_: yeah it worked. but how can I move it to top left corner??
[18:55] <BigMao> Pici: I might have to answer the phone in a few minutes but I will be back.  I'll let you know when I have to go
[18:55] <ActionParsnip> dauthiwarlord: you can then flesh the skeleton file out and get a better res
[18:55] <kiwi_> linux-backports-modules-alsa-2.6.35-22-generic,   in what case would you install this package?
[18:56] <blinkyb> Dr_Willis_: Thanks
[18:56] <h4x0l2> Action, do you know any explaination why some drivers automagically work once it is installed via wine?
[18:56] <Pici> BigMao: It looks like there are newer versions of xorg-server source (which would result in updated binaries) available in the repos.  1.7.6-2ubuntu7.4 is available in lucid-updates.  And This bug https://launchpad.net/bugs/563100 which has similar symptoms as yours seems to have been fixed somewhere in those releases.

[19:01] <ActionParsnip> dauthiwarlord: yes, thats why it needs doing in root recovey mode
[19:01] <dauthiwarlord> can you give me steps ?
[19:01] <h4x0l2> ActionParsnip: do you think it is possible to system auto-delegated it if it was recognized?
[19:02] <ActionParsnip> dauthiwarlord: hold shift at boot, select recovery mode, select root
[19:02] <BigMao> Pici, I have to go, I'll be back
[19:02] <Pici> BigMao: okay

[19:02] <h4x0l2> ActionParsnip: I wondered this myself, seems Ubuntu has come a very long way...
[19:02] <doriangrey> Hello i have a little prob on my ubuntu, few days ago the system bar (application places system) gone to the right side of the screen and i more like it when was in left side but i dont know how to make it come back to his original place, any help? thanks
[19:03] <dajhorn> area51pilot: `gconftool --recursive-unset /apps/panel` at a terminal prompt, and reboot.
[19:03] <dauthiwarlord> ActionParsnip: yes .. but what I do on recovery mode .. hhaaha xD
[19:03] <area51pilot> doriangray: is there a little arrow in tone of the upper screen corners?
[19:03] <greenmang0_> Pici: okies :)
[19:03] <r000t_editsuite> Will this be enough to take all the weight off of the integrated graphics? http://www.tigerdirect.com/applications/SearchTools/item-details.asp?EdpNo=1520508&CatId=319
[19:03] <Rick_Deckard> please help me :(
[19:03] <h4x0l2> ubuntunoobz: yes, emulatorzone has many, get the windows versions, I have seen all work via wine
[19:04] <dajhorn> r000t_editsuite: Nope.  Not even close.
[19:04] <r000t_editsuite> ...
[19:04] <Daniel_Rollt> Is the guy that was helping me with the No screen error still on?
[19:04] <share> 18:34:42 < dajhorn> share: No.  If unrar isn't using all of your CPU, then it is probably limited by disk write speed.
[19:04] <share> dajhorn: my disk is 1 TB, SATA 3 Gb/s, 64 MB Cache
[19:04] <r000t_editsuite> Also, I heard ATI has really bad drivers for linux
[19:04] <ubuntunoobz> emulator running an emulator? wont that be uber slow
[19:04] <share> dajhorn: i think thats not the problem
[19:05] <h4x0l2> no, I had n64 ocarina of time running no problem
[19:05] <ActionParsnip> dauthiwarlord: whats so funny?
[19:05] <dajhorn> r000t_editsuite: Your price point should be between $25-$50.
[19:05] <ActionParsnip> ubuntunoobz: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OVLpyXShF4Y
[19:05] <ubuntunoobz> yeah but my gpu is a bit slow...
[19:05] <h4x0l2> you can always dumb-down the frame rate as well
[19:05] <AH> how do i restore the desktop panels?
[19:05] <ubuntunoobz> only 256 shared memory
[19:05] <r000t_editsuite> I realize this machine will N E V E R play anything more than Portal (and I have a dedicated machine for that I'm on right now with a Quadro FX 4500 X2) I just want to be able to click a browser link and not have to wait 10 seconds for the sysem to unfreeze
[19:05] <bastidrazor> !panels | AH
[19:05] <h4x0l2> hows your swap setup
[19:06] <dauthiwarlord> ActionParsnip: I didn't know steps for commands on recovery mode ... I know how to enter on recovery mode ! :P
[19:06] <dajhorn> r000t_editsuite: You need at least a 6000 series card to get all of the modern video goodies, but the 6000 cards are falling out of nvidia-current support soon.
[19:06] <r000t_editsuite> Define goodie
[19:06] <AH> bastidrazor: do u know a key command to start term?
[19:06] <dajhorn> r000t_editsuite: VDPAU.  Full compiz acceleration.
[19:06] <r000t_editsuite> No game will run on this machine (It's Linux :p) and I have a machine I use for gaming. I don't even think compiz will be an option
[19:07] <ActionParsnip> dauthiwarlord: its Xorg -configure   same as you ran before. There isn't an x server stinking up the place now so it should pass
[19:07] <r000t_editsuite> All I want is the CPU to not be 50% on xorg whenever I'm using it
[19:07] <Awwent> What would be preferable for an ubuntu server, 10.10 or 10.04 LTS? It's not a critical server by any means.
[19:07] <r000t_editsuite> and I'm assuming xorg can run on the GPU
[19:07] <ubuntunoobz> no idea lol
[19:07] <dauthiwarlord> great thanx .. :D
[19:07] <dauthiwarlord> be right back ... .3
[19:07] <ubuntunoobz> in the bios it says on 8mb of video ram
[19:07] <dajhorn> r000t_editsuite:  That is a bug in the xorg stack, not a hardware problem.
[19:07] <ubuntunoobz> but my gpu should share up to 256.
[19:07] <AH> is there a key cmd to start term?
[19:07] <h4x0l2> ubuntunoobz: fk all, give it a try what have you got to lose?

Please update manually by clicking on this icon and then selecting 'Check for Updates'and check if some of the repositories fail.
[19:08] <dajhorn> r000t_editsuite: Install the xorg stack from the ubuntu-swat x-updates PPA and the CPU usage will go down.
[19:08] <r000t_editsuite> (Running crunchbang btw but it's based on debian like Ubuntu, so any problems like xorg you guys should be able to help with)
[19:08] <r000t_editsuite> But if I can fix this with 0 money, that's awesome

[19:08] <greenmang0_> is it possible to install ubuntu 64bit on windows 32bit with cpu 64bit using wubi?
[19:08] <AH> goltoof: thx!
[19:08] <r000t_editsuite> greenman0_ that's what I'm doing now
[19:09] <Awwent> What would be preferable for an ubuntu server, 10.10 or 10.04 LTS? It's not a critical server by any means.
[19:09] <r000t_editsuite> Wubi just makes a special file in your windows drive
[19:09] <ActionParsnip> ubuntunoobz: onboard intel won't run great but it's worth a try just to try
[19:09] <h4x0l2> 10.04
[19:09] <r000t_editsuite> the bittage does not depend on windows or anything
[19:09] <kotelette> how to rescue a file erasing by my fault
[19:09] <kotelette> the trash is empty
[19:09] <greenmang0> r000t_editsuite: ok thanks :)
[19:09] <Pici> !undelete | kotelette
[19:09] <r000t_editsuite> kotelette DO NOT MAKE ANY MORE FILEs
[19:09] <r000t_editsuite> So it's not overwritten
[19:09] <goltoof> so this localhost:631  thing is kind of an easter egg for me.  is there a listing of localhost ports and what they do?
[19:09] <r000t_editsuite> close any programs tht might write temp files
[19:09] <Awwent> h4x0l2: Ok, also, how much swap should I set up on a 768MB RAM box?
[19:09] <r000t_editsuite> and also realize that there's a good chance that your file is gone, but recovery is still something to try
[19:09] <kotelette> ok thak u man
[19:10] <r000t_editsuite> (Use something like Dropbox so when you accidentally the whole file, you can go online and undelete it)
[19:10] <AH> i run gconftool and it says no processes found, how do I get the panels restored?
[19:10] <nb72> I have a generic *nix question about command line file manipulation (sed, awk).  Is this a good channel for that question or is there a better one?

[19:11] <goltoof> area51pilot:   ATI?if my question makes any sense, i want to know if there are other browser-based configuration interfaces for ubuntu, like localhost:631, etc ?
[19:11] <dajhorn> goltoof: Look at the /etc/services file, and then do a web search on the protocol name.
[19:11] <bernardo>  I noticed that kubuntu use *a lot* of memory, propably because it has more underlining processes and daemons
[19:11] <bernardo> is there a guide somewhere to strp off unwanted daemons from kunbuntu 10.10?
[19:11] <bernardo> or to optimize performance?

[19:12] <dajhorn> goltoof: The CUPS interface that you're looking at is somewhat unique.   Look at the webmin packages.
[19:12] <bernardo> maybe try the "netbook" edition?
[19:12] <r000t_editsuite> What does speech-dispatcher do and why is it eating a whole cpu core/

[19:27] <dajhorn> dauthiwarlord: You bought this part used on eBay.  It could be a dud part.
[19:27] <dauthiwarlord> what that means ?

[19:30] <rigved> AH: this is how it's supposed to work
[19:31] <dajhorn> ranjan: Not easily.  Your packaging kung-fu would need to be very strong.
[19:31] <philinux> AH: Try the guest user does it work. If so you might be better creating a new admin user and copying your stuff over.
[19:31] <rigved> AH: did you make some other changes to your settings recently?
[19:31] <sindegra> I'm on wireless in ubuntu and I can surf through firefox, but empathy and evolution only can go online through the ethernet. If I am on wireless they don't connect. Anyone got any ideas?
[19:32] <rigved> AH: yes, you could do that too
[19:32] <dajhorn> sindegra: Start by checking the proxy settings in Empathy and Evolution.
[19:32] <goltoof> sindegra:  sounds like firewall issues, more than anything
[19:32] <AH> rigved: let me check...all i did was remove Evolution.  It had some issues
[19:32] <r-r> !guidelines
[19:32] <r-r> !guidedog
[19:32] <sindegra> dajhorn: it has no proxies. I checked.
[19:33] <sindegra> goltoof: firewall of my isp?
[19:33] <ranjan> dajhorn, what tool should I be using ?
[19:33] <ranjan> dpkg ?
[19:33] <badger32d> sindegra, are you on your home network or on a corporate / school network?
[19:33] <r-r> !tourguide
[19:33] <dajhorn> sindegra: Then check for firewalling like goltoof suggested.
[19:33] <AH> rigved: it does look reset but seems like there are some issues like I said, no panels, cannot modify desktop etc.
[19:33] <rigved> AH: ok. it's very tightly bundled. sometimes auto-removes stuff that is important
[19:33] <goltoof> sindegra:  of the router, or the os..  have you made any iptables changes?
[19:33] <philinux> AH: sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop
[19:33] <sindegra> goltoof: no iptables changes. am on a school public wireless network.
[19:33] <r-r> ! 
[19:33] <dajhorn> ranjan: Why do you want to rebundle chromium?  Doing this could be a few hours of packaging work.
[19:34] <AH> rigved: i agree
[19:34] <badger32d> thats why, sindegra. I almost bet that everything but 80 is filtered
[19:34] <goltoof> sindegra:  some ports (25 110, etc) aren't working on your wireless interface... my assumption
[19:34] <badger32d> on the wifi at least - I've seen it before
[19:34] <ranjan> dajhorn, actually i want to rebundle amarok
[19:34] <goltoof> sindegra:   oh.. a school network... maybe that explains it
[19:34] <badger32d> email usually goes over 25 ( smtp ) and chat - it all depends on the client, but I've seen that filtered out too.
[19:35] <sindegra> goltoof: how would I be able to check if a port is open?
[19:35] <dauthiwarlord> dajhorn: one question ... I used riplinux ... with live mode ... and gives me 1024 x 768
[19:35] <dauthiwarlord> ???
[19:35] <goltoof> sindegra:    nmap   ;)
[19:35] <badger32d> lol @ goltoof - that was my suggestion...
[19:35] <AH> philinux: will try that now...other user accounts have same issue...no panel/menu
[19:36] <dajhorn> dauthiwarlord: Dunno.  This is the #ubuntu support channel.  You said earlier that you're trying to use bad hardware, so you're unlikely to get additional help.
[19:36] <sindegra> badger32d: might be the case that only 80 works. but I damn will want to be sure that my wireless is functioning properly.
[19:36] <Rick_Deckard> how can i force my ubuntu to mount a partation of a gpt harddisk?
[19:36] <goltoof> sindegra:  a good indication is if you've had this problem on other networks
[19:36] <r000t_editsuite> Wow... the people in #debian are.... wow
[19:36] <Rick_Deckard> *partition
[19:37] <badger32d> sindegra - check another network, such as starbucks and see.
[19:37] <dajhorn> ranjan: Why do you want to rebundle Amarok?
[19:37] <dauthiwarlord> dajhorn: sorry about last post ... is hard to follow u ... with lower resolutions ... but really I want to add more ress ... this distro completes what a died laptop should didn't do with other distros ...
[19:37] <dauthiwarlord> help me .. :(
[19:37] <badger32d> also, if it *is* the school network, try checking this out: http://www.revsys.com/writings/quicktips/ssh-tunnel.html  -- if you have a *nix computer on another network you can connect to

[19:38] <ogennadi> Hey all. I'm trying to install mongodb from natty (http://packages.ubuntu.com/natty/mongodb) on my maverick server. But running this command "sudo apt-get install mongodb=1:1.6.3-1ubuntu1" keeps giving me version-not-found. Anyone know how to get around this?
[19:38] <fundus> dajhorn: thanks
[19:38] <fundus> badger32d: thanks
[19:38] <dajhorn> fundus: eCryptFS if you choose the per-user option.  Welcome.
[19:38] <fundus> was it always LUKS?
[19:38] <Guest852> aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
[19:38] <Rick_Deckard> any idea? i really need help please :)
[19:38] <badger32d> been LUKS since I started in 7x
[19:39] <fundus> badger32d: sweet, thanks
[19:39] <dajhorn> fundus: LUKS was sorta-kinda-mostly an enhancement of the loop driver.
[19:39] <saliak1> I'm trying to do a network install of xubuntu 10.04.  All i could find as far as netboot images was http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/netboot/.  is there no netboot image for xubuntu?
[19:39] <fundus> right, i guessed it was LUKS but wasnt sure
[19:39] <Kage|VNC> I have compressed some important files with "md5sum" and I can't seem to find the arguement to uncompress them... I tried -d but it says "md5sum: invalid option -- d"
[19:39] <AH> philinux: thx for the last suggestion...have what I need now
[19:39] <fundus> Kage|VNC: youre joking?
[19:39] <philinux> AH: sudo apt-get install gnome-panel may be enough
[19:40] <Kage|VNC> fundus, what?
[19:40] <Dice-Man> md5sum is a compression format ?!
[19:40] <fundus> Kage|VNC: you cant compress files with md5
[19:40] <hendrikus> how can we make a edubuntu - Ubuntu instal on a server so wich can be opend in a webbrowser such as the edubuntu Live Web?
[19:40] <badger32d> I occasionally compress files with SHA1, but never MD5sum...
[19:40] <dajhorn> Kage|VNC: md5sum is not a compression program like zip.
[19:40] <badger32d> ;)
[19:40] <philinux> AH: sorted then
[19:40] <Dice-Man> Kage|VNC, stop trolling
[19:40] <ranjan> dajhorn, i want to have it in one package so that i can use my previous packages of amarok.
[19:40] <fundus> Kage|VNC: it only generates hash sums
[19:41] <salat> hey..i want to change my empathy theme..but if i select a other theme, nothing happens...
[19:41] <salat> why?:D
[19:41] <dajhorn> ranjan: You'll have dependency hell.  It won't work.  A better solution would be to compile the older Amarok for whatever libraries you have on the target computer.
[19:41] <r000t_editsuite> Kage if we could fit gigs into that little hash, the world would be a much better place
[19:41] <erUSUL> Dice-Man: probably trolling
[19:41] <Kage|VNC> fundus, whats a hash sum?  its a unique string that respesents data right?  so its a compression?
[19:41] <goltoof> Kage|VNC:  what did you "really" use to compress your important files?
[19:41] <AH> either way Philinux...the suggestion worked. I can get config back to what it needs to be fairly quick
[19:41] <Dice-Man> erUSUL, yeah probably
[19:41] <goltoof> Kage|VNC:   what's the file extension?
[19:42] <philinux> AH: Good job. TRy not to fiddle too much ;)
[19:42] <fundus> Kage|VNC: try: echo "1" | md5sum
[19:42] <badger32d> I use sha1 to compress all my sql backups. Restoring them is a pain in the butt though... ;)
[19:42] <Kage|VNC> lol... so seriosuly how do I revert a MD5 hash?
[19:42] <Kage|VNC> goltoof, its .md5
[19:42] <goltoof> o_0
[19:42] <janolap1> Hi, I need help on ubuntu 10.10 to setup snmpd
[19:42] <dajhorn> ranjan:   Find the DSC file for the older version of Amarok that you want, use `dget` on it, and then do a `dpkg-buildpackage -us -uc`.   YMMV.
[19:42] <goltoof> badger32d:   what for?
[19:43] <Kage|VNC> goltoof, I did:   cat Paper.odt | md5sum > Paper.odt.md5
[19:43] <AH> philinux...Im building my Linux admin skills....as long as I dont destroy hardware, its just a learning experience.
[19:43] <Kage|VNC> goltoof, same way you use gzip
[19:43] <AH> Windows got old after 10 yrs
[19:43] <AH> as an admin
[19:43] <ken__> irc.freenode.net
[19:44] <badger32d> wait, huh? Can we please stop this MD5 stupidity? ehh? What was your question goltoof, I was afk
[19:44] <ogennadi> HI all, anyone know the deb repository URL for natty packages?
[19:44] <Kage|VNC> fundus, lol?  Why is the output longer then the input?
[19:44] <goltoof> Kage|VNC:   well i don't knwo off the top of my head... but just as long as you know,  md5 is not a compression algorithm.. it's a hashing algorithm
[19:44] <Kage|VNC> fundus, with that command
[19:44] <ranjan> dajhorn,thnk u
[19:45] <ranjan> dajhorn, i will try
[19:45] <dajhorn> ranjan: Welcome.
[19:45] <goltoof> badger32d:   why do you use SHA1 for sql backups?
[19:45] <Kage|VNC> goltoof, what do you mean its not a compression algorythm?  did I loose my data?
[19:45] <badger32d> Oh, sorry man - sarcasm
[19:45] <ogennadi> Lemme rephrase. I'm trying to install packages from natty on my maverick server. What is the url for natty packages and where can I find that URL in future?
[19:46] <badger32d> Kage - please stop. MD5 will *not* compress files. Period. If you are serious, then you seriously need to check my friend www.google.com before you come in here asking questions like that.
[19:46] <RayGalinato> Hello, I like to disable mouse acceleration by using "xset m 0 0". My question is, where can I put this so that it gets set by default upon login / startup?
[19:46] <goltoof> Kage|VNC:   it really sounds like you could use some time in the google corner.. if you're going to compress/decompress something, choose your compression method wisely
[19:47] <badger32d> goltoof - SHA1 is another hashing algorithm - I was being sarcastic. I generally use gzip for my backups.
[19:47] <goltoof> badger32d:  lol.. k thanks for making me feel dumb, i really needed that
[19:47] <BigMao> Hi Pici, I'm back. :)
[19:47] <goltoof> badger32d:  yeah i use gzip for my backups too  :P
[19:47] <badger32d> RayGalintao, did you make that into a script? check out rc-update via google
[19:47] <area51pilot> AH is now: area51pilot
[19:48] <badger32d> goltoof, no worries. I'm just a crypto geek. Hashing is a interesting world
[19:48] <dajhorn> ogennadi: Look at the prevu package.   Don't install natty packages directly on a maverick system.
[19:48] <salat> someone got a clue why my empathy themes dont work?
[19:48] <BigMao> Pici, you mentioned that there is an updated version of Xorg on the repository in lucid-updates.  I have that line enabled in my /etc/apt/sources.list, but it doesn't automatically download and install the updates.  Do I have to install the package manually?
[19:48] <badger32d> salat - what theme?
[19:49] <msergiu80> hello
[19:49] <ogennadi> dajhorn: Could you give me a link to the prevu package? I'm trying to install mongodb 1.6.3 which is available in natty but not maverick...
[19:49] <msergiu80> need some help
[19:49] <salat> badger32d: all themes dont work..
[19:49] <manhunter> hello,will ubuntu be a rolling release distro ,http://www.webupd8.org/2010/11/ubuntu-becoming-rolling-release-distro.html
[19:49] <dajhorn> ogennadi: `apt-get install prevu`
[19:50] <Pici> BigMao: If you do an apt-get update and then run apt-cache policy , does it look like there is a newer version available?
[19:50] <badger32d> gotta be more specific - how did you install / pick one theme
[19:50] <salat> badger32d: i installed a theme but and it doesnt work and the standard themes dont work either
[19:50] <ogennadi> dajhorn: Thanks a lot :)
[19:50] <dajhorn> ogennadi: Welcome.
[19:50] <badger32d> hmm, hold on a sec salat - checking something out
[19:50] <dauthiwarlord> dajhorn: Please ... can you still help me to achieve my goal .. :( ??
[19:51] <dajhorn> dauthiwarlord: No.   Maybe somebody else will help you.   I dislike troubleshooting bad/flakey/defective/broken hardware.
[19:51] <dauthiwarlord> dajhorn: Ok thnx 4 all your help.
[19:51] <ranjan> dajhorn, sorry to bother u again, should i dpkg.
[19:51] <ranjan> dajhorn, should i use dpkg
[19:52] <bahamas> if i want to extract a .tar.bz2 archive, is the command tar -jxvf filename.tar.bz2 correct?
[19:52] <dauthiwarlord> yes
[19:52] <dauthiwarlord> is correct
[19:52] <goltoof> bahamas:  yup
[19:52] <dajhorn> ranjan: No.  You need the development tools to build software packages.   Things like devscripts, build-essential, debhelper.
[19:52] <erUSUL> bahamas: should work;
[19:53] <dajhorn> ranjan: You'll probably need to go through the Debian packaging tutorial to get a working result.
[19:53] <bahamas> ok, thanks guys
[19:53] <salat> badger32d: oh they work...just thought  they would change the whole ui and not just the chat window
[19:53] <BigMao> Pici, when I run apt-cache policy | grep -i xorg, there is nothing.  Does that mean there are no new versions available?
[19:53] <ranjan> dajhorn, ok.
[19:54] <badger32d> ahh, well cool. good luck salat
[19:54] <BigMao> Pici, I run apt-get update and apt-get upgrade pretty regularly - so if there is an updated package out there, it probably isn't accessible via normal updates
[19:54] <Pici> BigMao: er, no, sorry I must have given you the wrong command. Try: apt-cache policy xserver-xorg-core
[19:55] <BigMao> Installed: 2:1.7.6-2ubuntu7.4
[19:55] <BigMao> Same for Candidate:
[19:55] <ranjan> dajhorn, i was thinking it will easy but doesn't seems to be.
[19:55] <BigMao> So it doesn't look like there is a newer version
[19:55] <aknagi> Can anyone recommend a graphical tool for me to convert an avi to a dvd video?
[19:55] <dajhorn> ranjan: An alternative is to put your old software into a virtual machine.
[19:55] <BigMao> Pici, I last experienced the crash yesterday, so my hunch is that I am still getting the bug with this version of xserver-xorg-core
[19:55] <smw> how can I make samba show symbolic links? When I open a dir with a link, it does not show the link. I have follow symlinks and wide links enabled.
[19:56] <Pici> BigMao: Hm.. Looks like it.
[19:56] <Somelauw> Okay, here is what happened.
[19:56] <goltoof> aknagi: good question, i can't.. but be sure to search through the software center as i imagine there are a few
[19:56] <Somelauw> Suddenly my screen turned black.
[19:56] <Somelauw> I saw some characters like kkkkkkkkk flying by.
[19:57] <Somelauw> Then I got back to the gnome login screen.
[19:57] <Keyboardx86> Hello everyone
[19:57] <Somelauw> I was like: What on earth is happening with this computer?
[19:57] <oldschool> aknagi try devede or Arista Transcoder
[19:57] <BigMao> I guess this brings me back to the original question, if the fix for the related bug (563100) doesn't completely fix this bug (570151), is there some way to increase the priority of 570151 or get a developer to pay more attention to it?
[19:58] <tobiassjosten> Isn't it enough to place a init script in /etc/init.d to have it autostart when the machine boots? Like MySQL. If it's in there, shouldn't it always start?
[19:58] <Somelauw> But I think there was a problem with gnome.
[19:58] <dajhorn> smw: The client needs to mount the Samba share as CIFS, not SMB.
[19:58] <hudnix> All of a sudden fspot crashes whenever I try to import photos, even when I specify an empty directory as the source.
[19:58] <Somelauw> Do you understand?
[19:58] <msergiu80> hello
[19:58] <smw> dajhorn, so nautilus can not see it but windows can?
[19:58] <aknagi> goltoof: Thanks, anyway.
[19:58] <msergiu80> somebody can help me with an apache problem
[19:58] <msergiu80> ?
[19:58] <aknagi> oldmanstan: Thanks, will do.
[19:59] <ranjan> dajhorn, if you please tell me how i m suppose to do that.
[19:59] <dajhorn> ranjan: Do what?
[19:59] <smw> dajhorn, I am using smb:// in nautilus
[19:59] <smw> dajhorn, how can I do it?
[20:00] <dajhorn> smw: Does `smbclient` see the links?
[20:00] <Rovanion> I seem unable to fetch the indexfiles of http://extras.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/maverick/Release. Is the server down?
[20:01] <smw> dajhorn, yep :-\
[20:01] <Rovanion> Good, then it's not my fault :P
[20:02] <dajhorn> smw: You have a hidden directory $HOME/.gvfs -- cd into it and check whether the links appear there.
[20:02] <yoost> I'm experimenting with kubuntu and I did something do my bottom panel it seems, now when I minimize windows I can't see them in the panel, anyone know how to fix this?
[20:03] <smw> dajhorn, they are there; they are red; they give permission denied
[20:03] <toodles> hello
[20:03] <dajhorn> smw: Okay.  This is probably a not-Samba problem.
[20:03] <toodles> is there a way i can get a user to bind to a network address without having root?
[20:03] <smw> ok
[20:03] <dajhorn> smw: Especially if smbclient and Windows clients can see the links and use them.
[20:04] <smw> dajhorn, I will test it on a windows machine, brb
[20:04] <shmup> tar -czf minecraft-$(date +"&%Y%m%d).tar.gz minecraft
[20:04] <shmup> there is nothing wrong with that, right?
[20:04] <shmup> it's just sitting there.. i assume still compressing
[20:04] <shmup> been waiting a minute, though
[20:05] <Pici> shmup: you have a & in that date command where none should be.
[20:05] <shmup> oh ~.~ hm
[20:05] <dajhorn> toodles: Regular users can bind processes to ports greater than 1023.   Only root processes can open ports less than 1024.
[20:05] <shmup> Pici, so we could assume that if I remove that all is well?
[20:05] <smw> dajhorn, nope. It is a samba problem.
[20:05] <toodles> dajhorn: yeah, i understand, but there's a game that requires access to the network interface before it even starts to bind (sorry i didnt clarify this)
[20:06] <toodles> and it will only work during root
[20:06] <toodles> since the game is made for windows.. they usually just use run as administrator
[20:06] <Pici> shmup: Sure. You may want to add a -v on your tar command if you want to be extra sure that its doing something.
[20:06] <dajhorn> toodles: Which game?  Are you running it in Wine or CrossOver?
[20:06] <dsv> i'm booted 2.6.32-26-generic and my wifi stopped working. broadcom STA here. any ideas?
[20:06] <toodles> in wine, need for speed underground 2
[20:07] <toodles> need the adapters for LAN capability
[20:07] <smw> dajhorn, on windoes it said permission denied
[20:07] <dajhorn> smw: Is the Samba server a domain member, or using something like NTACLS?
[20:07] <smw> dajhorn, not that I know of
[20:07] <smw> dajhorn, not sure what NTACLS is
[20:07] <shmup> Pici, even adding f, giving me -cvzf .. it just sits there.
[20:08] <dajhorn> smw NTACLs are Windows-style permissions.   Different than what you get with chmod.
[20:08] <smw> dajhorn, ah
[20:08] <dajhorn> toodles: Look at the privbind package.   If that doesn't work, then you'll need to try something like a jail or chroot.
[20:09] <shmup> Pici, nvm sorry. Got it. ;x
[20:09] <Pici> shmup: okay :)
[20:09] <shmup> I removed the date.
[20:10] <shmup> And it was done instantly.
[20:10] <shmup> So I just have to assume something was wrong with the format.
[20:10] <dajhorn> smw: You've got me stumped.  Maybe pastebin a directory listing from smbclient.
[20:11] <dieciuno> ciao
[20:11] <smw> dajhorn, I have been doing some debugging
[20:11] <smw> dajhorn, "Share 'media' has wide links and unix extensions enabled. These parameters are incompatible. Wide links will be disabled for this share."
[20:12] <oldschool> hi anyone know how to upgrade filezilla on a ubuntu desktop 8.4 hardy
[20:12] <BostX> hi all
[20:12] <smw> dajhorn, so, I disabled wide links. Now I have the same problem and get "connect to service media initially as user nobody (uid=65534, gid=65534)"
[20:13] <smw> hi BostX
[20:13] <dieciuno> hi bostX
[20:13] <dajhorn> smw: You're getting that because your client is connecting anonymously.   It isn't a problem if you want to allow guest connections.
[20:14] <smw> dajhorn, I want to connect anonymously :-)
[20:14] <jinjonboo> guys, what RAID system is that it has NO redundancy?
[20:14] <erUSUL> jinjonboo: raid0
[20:14] <dieciuno> do you have a list?
[20:14] <smw> dajhorn, this is my public readonly share
[20:14] <littlejoey> !raid
[20:15] <dajhorn> smw: Wide links allow you to link outside of the path=/MyStuff tree.  This is usually a security risk, so everything defaults to preventing it.   An easy fix would be to copy or hardlink everything into the media share.
[20:15] <jinjonboo> erUSUL: thanks
[20:15] <yoost> I read that you can use a KDE Theme Manager for kubuntu themes, is that installed by default?
[20:15] <dieciuno> !raid
[20:15] <jinjonboo> erUSUL: sorry my indiscretion, but you really sure right? this is for a test :P
[20:15] <smw> dajhorn, I hate hardlinks :-\
[20:15] <ubuntunoobz> whats a program that can tell me how much % my card is connected to the tower
[20:15] <erUSUL> jinjonboo: wikipedia should be able to confim as many other resources in the web
[20:16] <_Techie_> using the catalyst control centre from FGLRX i cannot enable my third screen, only my DVI and DP, not my DVI-VGA
[20:16] <jinjonboo> erUSUL: sure, of course:) thanks for the help :)
[20:16] <smw> dajhorn, 75GB is a little bit much to copy...
[20:16] <dieciuno> irc.blacksailer.org
[20:16] <BostX> guys, I have a laptop without DVD mechanics and bootable win7 CD and I'd like to run win7 on ubuntu virtual-box. Has anyone an idea how to get it there?
[20:17] <dajhorn> smw: What is outside of the \media share that you want to include?   Something like a torrent folder?
[20:17] <_jesse_> BostX: rip it a computer that does have a drive
[20:17] <_jesse_> and create an image
[20:17] <blup> i'm having trouble with the latest ubuntu version... i installed it on my new dell xps, and if i unplug the power chord, 1-5m later it freezes and i have to do a hard reboot. am i missing a driver, or what else could be causing this?
[20:17] <smw> dajhorn, yep. exactly
[20:17] <area51pilot> !evolution
[20:17] <Somelauw_> Hey
[20:17] <realeyes> Hey guys. Does anyone think Meerkat should have a firewall or something installed on it post-installation?
[20:17] <Somelauw_> My ubuntu seems to be very unstable
[20:17] <ubuntunoobz> can any1 tell me what program can tell me how much % my internet is connected? cause the only ubuntu has dont refresh
[20:17] <Somelauw_> It freezes a lot
[20:18] <BostX> _jesse_, uhm... but is there a program to rip CD to USB?
[20:18] <smw> realeyes, not for a desktop, no
[20:18] <_jesse_> BostX: there are programs to rip to a .iso file which you can copy to a USB drive
[20:18] <Somelauw_> It's even the reason I just logged out, because my computer froze and I had to reboot it.
[20:18] <dajhorn> smw:  Client side, things like XBMC can coalesce several CIFS shares into one logical point.   Server side,  you'll probably need to do some tricks, like a union mount.
[20:18] <Somelauw_> It didn't freeze that often when I was still using ubuntu 10.4
[20:18] <realeyes> smw: thanks.
[20:19] <Somelauw_> And it also doesn't freeze that often when I use (evil) windows.
[20:19] <littlejoey> blup: it might be related to your graphics driver according to something I've read on ubuntu forums
[20:19] <area51pilot> my Evolution Calendar meeting requests freeze up y system temp after most recent system update. Any ideas where to begin. Have completely removed and reinstalled Evolution, same isue
[20:19] <dajhorn> smw:  Of you could set the unix extensions = off  and try wide links = on again.
[20:19] <littlejoey> blup: I read it here http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1463355
[20:19] <blup> littlejoey: do you remember the thread?
[20:19] <blup> littlejoey: thanks
[20:20] <smw> dajhorn, I am doing this because xbmc could not recognize tvshow/tvshowS01-S05/tvshowS01/tvshowS01E01
[20:20] <BostX> _jesse_, well seems like Startup Disc Creator might be able to do it.... unbelievable
[20:20] <_Techie_> i need help, i am having trouble setting up my third display of my crossfireX 5770's using the FGLRX
[20:20] <dieciuno> list
[20:20] <smw> dajhorn, I will try that
[20:20] <littlejoey> blup: they basically tell you to download the latest version of your graphics driver
[20:20] <_jesse_> BostX: well that is a bit different than what you want, you just want the image to install into the virtual machine, you don't want to install it to the computer
[20:21] <blup> littlejoey: i believe i already did that :(
[20:21] <smw> dajhorn, I would like to remove that intermediary folder, but I can't because rtorrent would complain
[20:21] <blup> littlejoey: but yea, i suspect it's still a graphics card problem.. i'll keep searching in that direction
[20:21] <_jesse_> BostX: what operating system will you be using to rip the DVD ?
[20:21] <littlejoey> blup: what is your graphics card, and what driver do you have for it?
[20:22] <smw> dajhorn, so, all I need to do is make a few symlinks. easy... right? lol
[20:22] <BostX> _jesse_, ubuntu :)
[20:22] <_jesse_> BostX: :) you should just be able to use brasero to create the image then
[20:23] <_jesse_> you want a .iso file when you're done
[20:23] <dajhorn> smw: Remember that smbd must be able to traverse the link dereference.   Eg:   If the link contains /home/foo/bar, then smbd must have permissions to read /, /home, and /home/bar.   Same goes for relative links.  The '..' needs to be readable by smbd.
[20:23] <BostX> _jesse_, hmm... right
[20:23] <smw> dajhorn, yeah, I made sure that all worked out
[20:23] <Somelauw> Hi is ubuntu 10.10 much less stable than ubuntu 10.4?
[20:23] <_jesse_> BostX: so start it up and hit '1:1' copy
[20:24] <smw> Somelauw, works for me
[20:24] <ElNota> Somelauw: It's different, instead of stable programms, new ones
[20:24] <Somelauw> Since for me, it crashes a lot.
[20:24] <ElNota> Somelauw: But it's great for me
[20:24] <blup> littlejoey: ATI Mobility Radeon HD 4670, and i installed the driver from the driver manager (ATI/AMD propietary FGLRX graphics driver)
[20:24] <Somelauw> Very often it just hangs without leaving any traces in the syslog or anywhere.
[20:25] <littlejoey> blup: ok now I have more info to help you :), let's see what the forums have to say
[20:26] <BostX> _jesse_, well well well... I'm looking forward to see if it works on the target notebook
[20:27] <blup> littlejoey: thanks a lot
[20:28] <ubuntunoobz> how can i see my internet connection %?
[20:28] <ubuntunoobz> ubuntu 10.10
[20:28] <ubuntunoobz> besides moving my mouse over the icon...
[20:28] <cozzen> anyone has a good list of relativly new native linux games?

[20:30] <ActionParsnip> karthick87: sudo apt-get install vlc
[20:31] <ubuntunoobz> sudo apt-get install vlc >.<
[20:31] <ubuntunoobz> lol bad part is i did the same thing
[20:31] <Jaziek> I'm trying to install ubuntu, but it is not letting me get past the username creation stage
[20:31] <Jaziek> like, its just stuck. I can't press forward to carry on installing
[20:31] <BostX> _jesse_, :) but it's gonna take me a while...
[20:31] <ActionParsnip> marel: gedit filename ,will run gedit and open the file
[20:31] <karthick87> I have already installed vlc,what i want is i need vlc as my default video player
[20:31] <ubuntunoobz> jaziek have u filled every thing out?
[20:32] <Jaziek> yep
[20:32] <Jaziek> ticks next to everything
[20:32] <Quinn> hello?
[20:32] <ubuntunoobz> find a movie right click and go to properties karthick87
[20:32] <blup> littlejoey: thanks, if not i'll keep searching in that direction... do you know where i could find linux graphics card drivers?
[20:32] <ActionParsnip> Jaziek: use only lowercase letters in the username
[20:32] <Quinn> Erm I need desbrate help!
[20:32] <littlejoey> blup: wait I found this https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xserver-xorg-video-ati/+bug/662998
[20:32] <marel> ActionParsnip, the problem is that this command you've specified opens gedit in terminal, which means untill I close gedit I can't do anything else in terminal..
[20:32] <karthick87> ubuntunoobz: oke
[20:32] <ubuntunoobz> go to open with tab after that a pick the player
[20:32] <Jaziek> ah, that fixed it, thanks
[20:33] <Jaziek> ...why can't you use upper case?
[20:33] <ubuntunoobz> and*
[20:33] <ActionParsnip> marel: then suffix with an ampersand
[20:33] <_jesse_> ubuntunoobz: you can do `iwlist ra0 scanning` to see percentages for all networks
[20:33] <littlejoey> blup: sure on the ATI website for instance, try to see if there is a more recent version
[20:33] <ActionParsnip> Jaziek: its a known bug
[20:33] <_jesse_> ubuntunoobz: replacing 'ra0' with oyur wifi interface
[20:33] <ubuntunoobz> omg ty _jesse
[20:33] <Quinn> Hello?
[20:33] <_jesse_> hi Quinn
[20:33] <ubuntunoobz> hi quinn
[20:33] <ActionParsnip> marel: gedit filename &
[20:33] <_jesse_> !ask | Quinn
[20:34] <ubuntunoobz> _jesse interface dont support scanning
[20:34] <Quinn> Hi, erm I don't quite know whats wrong with my laptop
[20:34] <ubuntunoobz> state the problem
[20:34] <ActionParsnip> Quinn: give as many details as possible
[20:34] <_jesse_> ubuntunoobz: are you sure you supplied the correct name? your wifi interface should support scanning :P
[20:34] <marel> ActionParsnip, thanks.
[20:34] <ubuntunoobz> kk
[20:35] <_jesse_> ubuntunoobz: you can actually just leave the inteface out and do `iwlist scanning` to see it all
[20:35] <Quinn> My laptop refuses to re-install windows using windows xp boot disk
[20:35] <ActionParsnip> marel: if you aren't the owner you can run: gksudo gedit filename & ,to run gedit with elevated access
[20:35] <_jesse_> Quinn: how is that an ubuntu problem?
[20:35] <ubuntunoobz> this is linux help not windows.  /join #windows
[20:35] <ActionParsnip> !windows | Quinn
[20:35] <Quinn> well I had a similar problem before and I got help here and Ubuntu caused the problem in the first place
[20:36] <littlejoey> ActionParsnip: I noticed that sudo gedit doesn't work anymore... I should try it with gksudo, do you know why though?
[20:36] <_jesse_> Quinn: Ubuntu couldn't prevent you from reinstalling Windows
[20:36] <ubuntunoobz> quinn i know the problem!!!! its windows thats what!!
[20:36] <ActionParsnip> Quinn: ubuntu activities do not impact windows installations
[20:36] <_jesse_> Quinn: You but the disk in and boot from it, grub doesn't even load by that point
[20:36] <Quinn> I attempt to install windows by earasing with hdd with the disk and then my laptop randomly shuts off
[20:36] <_jesse_> so there isn't anyway Ubuntu could affect that
[20:37] <Fapton_Calcon> Has anyone successfully gotten the MSN certificates for Pidgin to work on 10.10? Can't seem to fix it permanently.
[20:37] <ActionParsnip> littlejoey: sudo doesn't setup the environment right and you will screw the ownership of .ICEauthority if you do
[20:37] <ubuntunoobz> _jesse is there a place i can see my internet %?
[20:37] <code_astronomer> Fapton_Calcon: I have
[20:37] <Quinn> it tries to install windows and gets to about 6% and dies
[20:37] <ActionParsnip> Fapton_Calcon: try the one on the pidgin ppa
[20:37] <_jesse_> ubuntunoobz: `iwlist scanning` shows it to you, it's under 'Quality'
[20:37] <dajhorn> Fapton_Calcon: Upgrade from the PPA, or install the new MSN certification like the bug report describes.
[20:37] <ActionParsnip> Quinn: that's offtopic here. Try ##windows
[20:37] <Roasted_> I just delted about a gig from a folder I created under root - named /share. Yet the space didnt come back as use-able, but the files I deleted are gone and not in the trash. What gives?
[20:38] <Fapton_Calcon> I upgraded from the PPA, yet the problem persists.
[20:38] <_jesse_> Quinn: that is a Windows problem then, you might just have a bad disk, but ask them to be sure
[20:38] <ubuntunoobz> cause i made a server and im moving the usb air card around to increase my signal but i cant find a place that tell me the % and keeps refreashing it
[20:38] <littlejoey> ActionParsnip: does that mean I shouldn't use sudo at all? or just not with gnome GUI's such as gedit?
[20:38] <ActionParsnip> Roasted_: try an fsck in livecd
[20:38] <ppds> rebonsoir ai je reussi mon passage a ubuntu , suis je revenu sur le bon irc ,
[20:38] <dajhorn> Fapton_Calcon: Did you restart?  The process could be in the tray.
[20:38] <Quinn> ok thanks
[20:38] <Roasted_> ActionParsnip, :(
[20:38] <Fapton_Calcon> Yes, I've restarted.
[20:38] <littlejoey> ppds: yes but this one is in English :)
[20:38] <code_astronomer> Fapton_Calcon: where did you put the files?
[20:38] <Roasted_> I really dont think booting to a live cd each time I dont get the space I should have is the answer.
[20:38] <ActionParsnip> littlejoey: sudo is fine for command line commands like apt-get,cp,mv stuff like that
[20:38] <ppds> je pense pas c'est un salon anglais
[20:38] <littlejoey> oh ok thanks
[20:38] <ppds> si quelqu'un parle  français ,
[20:39] <blup> littlejoey: thanks again
[20:39] <_jesse_> littlejoey: you can use gksudo for graphical applications, but don't run gui's as root unless you *need* to
[20:39] <ppds> je cherche a allez dans irc ubuntu
[20:39] <dajhorn> !fr | ppds
[20:39] <ubuntunoobz> _jesse i need something that keeps updating its self
[20:39] <littlejoey> blup: did anything work? or not yet?
[20:39] <ActionParsnip> littlejoey: you can use gksudo (kdesu in kde) for both if you like but you use those for nautils,gedit,kate etc
[20:39] <_jesse_> ubuntunoobz: I see, I can't think of anything like that off the top of my head
[20:39] <ActionParsnip> !gksudo | littlejoey
[20:39] <Fapton_Calcon> code_astronomner: ~/.purple/certificates/x509/tls_peers/
[20:40] <ubuntunoobz> cause im moving my air card around and im trying to increase my connection to the tower _jesse
[20:40] <ppds> ubottu,  ok mais comment je viens de migrer de windows sur ubuntu ert j'ai installer xchat et je ne sais comment faire , merci pour l'aide
[20:40] <littlejoey> ok _jesse_ and ActionParsnip: thanks! I didn't know that, I like this channel
[20:40] <code_astronomer> Fapton_Calcon: you need to put them in /usr/share/purple/ca-certs/
[20:40] <ubuntunoobz> it tells me the % when i move my mouse over th icon but it does not update its self
[20:40] <_jesse_> ubuntunoobz: yeah I understand that, the best I can do is just to say move it and run the command, move and run the command :P
[20:40] <ActionParsnip> littlejoey: shared knowledge makes the community smarter and stronger
[20:40] <ubuntunoobz> ...
[20:40] <littlejoey> yup :)
[20:40] <rww> ppds: #ubuntu-fr for French. This channel is English-only.
[20:41] <ppds> merci
[20:41] <ubuntunoobz> isnt there a wigit that tells me the % of my internet?
[20:41] <Fapton_Calcon> code_astronomer: Thanks, but I'm still not sure why the PPA didn't fix that issue :/
[20:41] <Roasted_> wee wee!
[20:41] <Ubuntuguy> I need help
[20:41] <ppds> je vous laisse bye
[20:41] <Ubuntuguy> My ubuntu 10.10 keep showing recovery menu
[20:41] <_jesse_> ubuntunoobz: that sort of thing is so dynamic that the wifi card doesn't instantly know
[20:41] <littlejoey> blup: can you update me?
[20:41] <ActionParsnip> Ask away Ubuntuguy
[20:41] <_jesse_> it gauges it over time
[20:41] <ubuntunoobz> mmk
[20:42] <Ubuntuguy> Well
[20:42] <code_astronomer> Fapton_Calcon: dude, you wanted it fixed; you need to ask *them*
[20:42] <ubuntunoobz> cause right now my air card only has 25%
[20:42] <Ubuntuguy> My ubuntu 10.10 boots up into recovery menu and I have to pick to run in non graphical mode etc
[20:42] <Ubuntuguy> I could get back on deskto[
[20:42] <code_astronomer> Fapton_Calcon: I was just trying to help
[20:42] <ActionParsnip> ubuntunoobz: does the chip expect firmware files at all?
[20:42] <Ubuntuguy> But I don't understand why I have to go through that...
[20:42] <Jaziek> how do I install java on ubuntu without internet access?
[20:43] <Fapton_Calcon> code_astronomer: I know, I'm not mad or anything. I'm greatful for the advice you've given me :)
[20:43] <ubuntunoobz> ubuntuguy go to system ->admin -> additional drivers
[20:43] <Ubuntuguy> And
[20:43] <ActionParsnip> Jaziek: grab the reuired debs and transfer via removable storage to the non web connected system
[20:43] <ubuntunoobz> actionparsnip what u mean? i had to install the firmware via additional drivers
[20:43] <dajhorn> Jaziek: You need to use a tool like apt-zip or apt-offline to.
[20:43] <code_astronomer> Fapton_Calcon: to be fair, it's in the topic in #pidgin ... ;) says in the instructions
[20:43] <ubuntunoobz> ubuntuguy is there something there?
[20:44] <_jesse_> ubuntunoobz: I think he was trying to talk to Ubuntuguy and tab completed wrong
[20:44] <Ubuntuguy> Ubuntunoobz I already have wifi and everything
[20:44] <code_astronomer> Fapton_Calcon: I did the same, and then realised
[20:44] <Ubuntuguy> I just keep booting into recovery menu
[20:44] <Ubuntuguy> and idk why...
[20:44] <ActionParsnip> ubuntunoobz: reboot and run: dmesg | less ,read through to see if you need firmware, then find the file itexpects and place in /etc/firmware
[20:44] <ubuntunoobz> ubuntuguy what graphics card do u have?
[20:44] <Fapton_Calcon> Yeah, I'm quite unfamiliar with IRC.
[20:44] <Ubuntuguy> Not sure, intel model graphics
[20:44] <ActionParsnip> Ubuntuguy: i'd boot to livecd and reinstall grub2

[20:45] <Ubuntuguy> What do you mean reinstall grub2?
[20:45] <Fapton_Calcon> code_astronomer: Thanks again!
[20:45] <BigMao> Pici, I was away for a moment so I might have missed your reply.  Do you know of a way to increase the priority of the bug?
[20:45] <code_astronomer> Fapton_Calcon: lol... np
[20:45] <littlejoey> !pipe
[20:45] <ActionParsnip> Ubuntuguy: if you need to give it files and you do, you may get a better signal
[20:45] <Ubuntuguy> I'm confused.
[20:46] <Ubuntuguy> I just need to know how to remove recovery menu
[20:46] <ActionParsnip> Ubuntuguy: grub2 is the bootloader. You can reinstall it to the drive via live cd
[20:46] <Ubuntuguy> Everytime I boot-up
[20:46] <Ubuntuguy> Oh
[20:46] <_jesse_> Ubuntuguy: try pressing escape while booting to load the grub menu
[20:46] <ubuntunoobz> oh i thought u said if u boot it goes into low graphics mode
[20:46] <Ubuntuguy> Oh ok
[20:46] <Ubuntuguy> So pressing escape
[20:46] <Ubuntuguy> Will help?
[20:46] <_jesse_> well it should bring up the grub list
[20:46] <Ubuntuguy> And then what do I do?
[20:47] <_jesse_> choose one of the non-safemode kernels
[20:47] <_jesse_> preferabbly the topmost one
[20:47] <_jesse_> my guess is it's just skipping that menu and booting whatever the default is
[20:47] <area51pilot> how do I check the Message Bus security policy?
[20:47] <Ubuntuguy> I'm going to come on the chat on my desktop so I can get step by step instructions as I do it
[20:48] <Ubuntuguy> Jesse, can we do private chat?
[20:49] <ubuntunoobz> wow i didnt think it was this hard to see the percent of my mobile broadband connection....
[20:49] <_jesse_> ubuntunoobz: it isn't, I told you how! You can probably find a gnome-panel applet too
[20:49] <ubuntunoobz> mmk ill look into it
[20:50] <m_fulder> hey
[20:50] <m_fulder> my workspaces suddenly stopped working properly, I can't drag over windows between them...why is taht?
[20:50] <_jesse_> ubuntunoobz: check http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-471881.html
[20:51] <ubuntunoobz> kk
[20:53] <Fapton_Calcon> code_astronomer: Do I need to use gksudo nautilus to copy the .pem files into the folder?
[20:54] <jinjonboo> guys, is there a RAID system besides RAID 1 that uses mirroring??!
[20:54] <code_astronomer> Fapton_Calcon: sudo cp   is fine
[20:55] <_jesse_> jinjonboo: raid1 is just mirroring, there are otherones that due bit parity and mirroring and whatnot, but they require more than 2 disks
[20:55] <_jesse_> or nvm, actually I don't think there are :P
[20:55] <_jesse_> there's raid 1/0 and raid 0/1
[20:55] <glitchd> ok so i was removing old kernels, didnt read the guide fully, and removed a kernel that it said i needed to recieve updates, how do i reinstall it so i can get updates?
[20:56] <cactus|work> i just installed ubuntu on my 24" imac, but it only boots into it if the network is unplugged.  if you try to boot with network plugged in, the mac flashes a the failed network boot icon instead of going to linux
[20:58] <Fapton_Calcon> code_astronomer: Thanks, I think it worked. One question, though? Was I suppose to remove the other Microsoft ones?
[20:58] <glitchd> i was removing old kernels, didnt read the guide fully, and removed a kernel that it said i needed to recieve updates, how do i reinstall it so i can get update
[20:59] <code_astronomer> Fapton_Calcon: think you should be ok.
[20:59] <dajhorn> glitchd: Reinstall the linux-image package.
[20:59] <BostX> _jesse_, im getting Batch file F:\DOSMENU.BAT missing
[20:59] <BostX> :(
[20:59] <glitchd> dajhorn, how would i do that?
[21:00] <jinjonboo> ahh ok thanks _jesse_ :)
[21:00] <dajhorn> glitchd: `apt-get install linux-image`.
[21:00] <_jesse_> BostX: this is in virtualbox?
[21:00] <glitchd> i dont know what the code of the kernel was thos
[21:00] <BostX> _jesse_, yep
[21:00] <glitchd> dajhorn, i dont know the numbers of the kernel tho..
[21:00] <dajhorn> glitchd: linux-image is a metapackage that always depends on a recent working supported kernel.  You don't need to know the version number.
[21:01] <_jesse_> BostX: so you ripped the DVD to an ISO, copied it to the laptop, created a virtual hard disk in virtualbox, created a new VM, and set the VM to load the image in it's drive?
[21:01] <glitchd> dajhorn, the guide says Do not uninstall the linux-image-generic as it is necessary to receive updates of the kernel.
[21:02] <dajhorn> glitchd: Okay.  Why is this important to you?
[21:02] <glitchd> so i should do 'sudo apt-get install linux-image-generic'?
[21:02] <BostX> _jesse_, yea... I might try to repeat it again in case of pebkac
[21:02] <glitchd> dajhorn, because i want my system to stay up to date
[21:02] <dajhorn> glitchd: No.  You should do apt-get install linux-image.
[21:02] <glitchd> dajhorn, ok ill do that then
[21:02] <_jesse_> BostX: yeah just make sure you are loading the ISO into the VM properly
[21:03] <ActionParsnip> BostX: also md5 test the iso, so you know its complete and consistant
[21:04] <glitchd> dajhorn, ok so i did that, now hopefully ill get updates when they come out
[21:04] <dajhorn> glitchd: Notice how linux-image installed linux-image-generic for you.
[21:04] <BostX> _jesse_,  ActionParsnip the error 'Batch file F:\DOSMENU.BAT missing' comes while booting the Win7 in the vbox
[21:05] <glitchd> dajhorn, this is what i have now
[21:05] <glitchd> * bursihido (~bursihido@122.173.57.119) has left #ubuntu ("WeeChat 0.3.2")
[21:05] <ActionParsnip> BostX: i'd ask in ##windows for what that implys
[21:05] <glitchd> dajhorn, oops
[21:06] <glitchd> dajhorn, glitchd@glitchtop:~$ dpkg --get-selections | grep linux-image
[21:06] <glitchd> linux-image					install
[21:06] <glitchd> linux-image-2.6.32-26-generic			install
[21:06] <glitchd> linux-image-2.6.32-26-generic-pae		install
[21:06] <glitchd> linux-image-generic				install
[21:06] <FloodBot3> glitchd: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
[21:06] <ActionParsnip> BostX: if its an iso, make sure it passes consistency check
[21:06] <glitchd> dajhorn, do u see that or did it get removed>
[21:06] <dajhorn> glitchd: You're not allowed to paste into this channel.  Use pastebin instead.   You also need to reboot for a new kernel to become active.   uname -a will tell you the version of the running kernel.
[21:06] <glitchd> ?
[21:07] <jrt4> For some reason tomboy-panel is not doing anything when I try to open it. I tried running it from the command line too, and it didn't give me any output and just froze. How could I diagnose what's going on here?
[21:07] <ActionParsnip> glitchd: could've done: dpkg -l | grep linux-image (shorter but same output)
[21:07] <glitchd> dajhorn, http://pastie.org/1323999
[21:08] <ActionParsnip> !away > _TechAway_
[21:08] <dajhorn> glitchd: That looks okay.
[21:09] <glitchd> dajhorn, mmk, so i should recieve update via update manager, right?
[21:09] <dajhorn> glitchd: Yes.
[21:09] <ActionParsnip> glitchd: you could remove the non pae kernel if you don't use it
[21:10] <glitchd> ActionParsnip, ok, will do
[21:10] <dajhorn> glitchd: No, don't do that.  You'll lose the linux-image automagic.
[21:10] <ActionParsnip> dajhorn: s/he has the linux-mage-pae which will give pae kernel upgrades
[21:11] <glitchd> dajhorn, dam i did it before u responded
[21:11] <dajhorn> glitchd: linux-image is the top-level of the dependency tree that Ubuntu uses for dist upgrades.
[21:11] <glitchd> dajhorn, now i need to reinstall that
[21:11] <_Techie_> ActionParsnip, couldnt help it, had to log out and in while configuring graphics, produced the same amount of extra lines as joining and parting would have
[21:11] <dajhorn> glitchd: If you don't have linux-image, then you can get stranded on an old kernel between major upgrades.
[21:11] <glitchd> dajhorn, ok so how do i reinstall it?
[21:12] <Jordan_U> _Techie_: You can use "/away [reason]" to mark yourself as away without creating extra noise in the channel.
[21:12] <ActionParsnip> _Techie_: could have just left then rejoined like everyone else does..
[21:12] <_Techie_> ActionParsnip, would have created the same amount of extra lines
[21:12] <dajhorn> glitchd: Just run the install command again.   (APT should be complaining that you're messing with the running kernel.  Are you not getting "don't touch this" kinds of warnings?)
[21:13] <chopo> hi alllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllll
[21:13] <edbian> chopo, hell
[21:13] <ActionParsnip> _Techie_: the factoid is inplace for reasons ;). I'm not an op but I do follow standard procedure for folks using away stuff
[21:13] <edbian> o
[21:13] <glitchd> dajhorn, no i got so such warning
[21:13] <glitchd> it removed it without a hitch
[21:14] <greenIT> hey, my eclipse won't start anymore... i just added the debian ppa, it updated and now it does nothing.... only the splash-screen is popping up
[21:14] <ActionParsnip> glitchd: did the last section of update-grub show kernels
[21:14] <jrib> greenIT: "the debian ppa"?
[21:14] <_Techie_> well, if this was the only channel i was in, then i would do something about it... but seeing its not, and that im actually rarely in here... i guess it stays how it is
[21:14] <glitchd> ActionParsnip, i dont think i did update grub
[21:14] <ActionParsnip> greenIT: mixing debian ppas with ubuntu will mess your OS as they are not the same
[21:14] <glitchd> ActionParsnip, unless it runs automatically
[21:14] <ActionParsnip> glitchd: its part of the process ;)
[21:15] <greenIT> actionparship: ok, how can i delete this ppa and is there one which is offering the latest eclipse-build for ubuntu?
[21:15] <ActionParsnip> glitchd: you should install linux-image-pae so your pae kernel gets updated
[21:15] <ActionParsnip> greenIT: reverse what you added
[21:15] <glitchd> ActionParsnip, this is what was displayed http://pastie.org/1324015
[21:15] <malgorath> Hey guys I just installed user directories and I can go to the /~username/ fine but when I try to add a .php file(which works fine under main /) it wants to down load the file, is there just somewhere I need to add more info in for the userdirs?
[21:15] <ActionParsnip> !ppa | greenIT
[21:16] <ericenns> any one here familliar with AD authenticatoin in ubuntu
[21:16] <andres_35_talk> alguien de talca
[21:16] <jrib> malgorath: #httpd is a better place for that question
[21:16] <Atlantic777> is there any way to reset passphrase for gnupg key?
[21:16] <ActionParsnip> glitchd: fine, install linux-image-pae ,you'll be fine
[21:16] <malgorath> jrib, figured I'd start here since I'm using ubuntu and have installed with ubuntu package managers. but i'll try there
[21:17] <glitchd> ActionParsnip, im still sleepy, whats the code to install that?
[21:17] <ActionParsnip> glitchd: sudo apt-get install linux-image-pae
[21:17] <cactus|work> ericenns, not really, but i think ldap is what you're looking for
[21:18] <ericenns> cactus|work: I have it working I'm just wondering if anyone ahd experience with password expiration notices
[21:18] <greenIT> is there a ubuntu-ppa which is offering the latest eclipse-build?
[21:19] <cactus|work> ericenns, what specifically about password expiration
[21:19] <ericenns> cactus|work: notification, like on login
[21:19] <glitchd> actionparsnip, E: Couldn't find package linux-image-pae
[21:20] <cactus|work> ericenns: as in, you want it to notify you?  or you don't?  ask a question.
[21:20] <glitchd> the autocomplete for names isnt working all of a sudden for me in here
[21:20] <ericenns> cactus|work: yes I want it to notify me
[21:21] <Rovanion> When running autogen.sh to prepare to compile Docky from source I get the error that I'm missing the package: 'gnome-keyring-sharp-1.0''gnome-keyring-sharp-1.0'. There seems to be no such package in the Ubuntu repositories or Docky PPA. What am I to do?
[21:22] <KFreed> hey guys, question: I'm using 10.04 and an HDTV for a display, but can't get the resolution past 640x480. I use my Xbox at 720p all the time on it, and xrandr isn't helping
[21:23] <dumont> is there a command in "ls" to list only directories?
[21:23] <jrib> dumont: ls -d */
[21:23] <dumont> ls -d1 ?
[21:23] <dumont> ls -d only lists "." directory
[21:24] <dumont> jrib
[21:24] <jrib> dumont: I didn't say "ls -d" :)
 dumont: ls -d */
[21:24] <dumont> ohh :S
[21:24] <dumont> what does */ supposed to mean
[21:24] <subject117> */ is not a smiley
[21:24] <jrib> dumont: right, do you mean it omits hidden directories?  Add ".*/"
[21:25] <thefinn93> can anyone help me with some install trouble?
[21:25] <TehZomB> heya Techie!
[21:25] <dumont> what does */ do?
[21:25] <jrib> dumont: it's a glob that matches directories
[21:25] <edbian> thefinn93, What's the trouble?
[21:26] <thefinn93> it's stuck on the screen "preapring to install Ubunu"
[21:26] <thefinn93> Ubuntu*
[21:26] <dumont> but i don't want '/' to appear at the end of my directory
[21:26] <edbian> dumont, *  means "anything" all the folders end in a / so */ is anything that starts with anything and ends in /.  so */ means all folders
[21:26] <thefinn93> i click next and the cursor spins and nothing happens
[21:27] <thefinn93> i left it like that overnight and nothing happened
[21:27] <edbian> thefinn93, It's just frozen.  Are you sure the CD is good?
[21:27] <edbian> thefinn93, The installer should only take about 40 minutes
[21:27] <BostX> _jesse_, well it doesnt work... the primary problem might be the fact that I was bought a dell-notebook without CD/DVD and they gave a DVD
[21:28] <CanBaz> ııı
[21:28] <thefinn93> edbian, yes I'm actually using a flash drive and I've wiped it and tried again several times
[21:28] <CanBaz> issss
[21:28] <CanBaz> asasasas
[21:28] <CanBaz> asasasa
[21:28] <CanBaz> csas
[21:28] <FloodBot3> CanBaz: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
[21:28] <CanBaz> asacxa
[21:28] <maco> CanBaz: please behave
[21:28] <BostX> _jesse_, the 2nd problem might be that im not sure if the DVD contains win7 or just drivers and utilities
[21:28] <_jesse_> BostX: hmm, the dvd should work though, I'm not familiar with that error message though
[21:28] <jrib> dumont: why don't you want the /?  What do you want to do with the results?
[21:28] <edbian> thefinn93, I believe that it's trying to open the partitioner at that point.  Run disk check under windows (it will take forever) and try again.
[21:28] <dumont> i just want pure folder names
[21:28] <_jesse_> BostX: aaaah
[21:28] <dumont> without /
[21:29] <_jesse_> BostX: well that'd be important
[21:29] <thefinn93> edbian I don't have windoze
[21:29] <jrib> !who | dumont
[21:29] <thefinn93> it used to be UNR 10.04
[21:29] <edbian> thefinn93, all the hdd's are empty?
[21:29] <dumont> jrib
[21:29] <dumont> :)
[21:29] <thefinn93> bad things happened on the upgrade  to 10.10
[21:29] <_jesse_> BostX: can I PM?
[21:29] <thefinn93> so i had to reinsall
[21:29] <BostX> _jesse_, what?
[21:29] <edbian> thefinn93, open up gparted.  See what gparted thinks of your partitions, are there errors etc?
[21:29] <thefinn93> alright
[21:29] <_jesse_> BostX: /msg you :P
[21:30] <BostX> _jesse_, of course
[21:30] <edbian> thefinn93, Not having an NTFS partition makes this whole process a lot shorter and easier :D
[21:30] <[V13]Razwerkz> Nah, I manage a chatbot on the same client that I chat on.
[21:30] <[V13]Razwerkz> Ffff wrong window
[21:31] <thefinn93> edbian I don't have anything NTFS. I just opened gparted and it doesn't say anything about errors
[21:31] <thefinn93> the main partition is ext4
[21:31] <thefinn93> should I try formatting it?
[21:31] <thefinn93> i've got all my stuff off
[21:31] <edbian> thefinn93, There are no little orange triangles
[21:31] <thefinn93> nope
[21:32] <edbian> thefinn93, If you have all your stuff off then I recommend just wiping all the partitions and leaving it totally empty.  Easiest thing for the installer to read later.
[21:32] <thefinn93> alright
[21:32] <thefinn93> i'll try that
[21:32] <thefinn93> ext4 sound good?
[21:32] <edbian> thefinn93, No that's what I'm saying.  Just make it all "unallocated"
[21:32] <ee99ee> hi, I have a ubuntu server running as our office NAT router... I want to forward a port to an internal server. I ran these commands, but it isn't working: http://pastebin.ca/2001363
[21:32] <TheNavyBear> how do I make demons (ie sshd and telnetd) start automaticly at boot in 10.04?
[21:32] <thefinn93> oh
[21:32] <edbian> thefinn93, We'll let the installer format it.
[21:32] <ProtiK> In the installed boot menu for 9.10, how do I edit the boot options?
[21:32] <thefinn93> alright
[21:32] <ProtiK> *installation
[21:32] <ee99ee> here is a list of rules on the box: http://pastebin.ca/2001366
[21:33] <edbian> thefinn93, Yeah, again, just to be sure.  This will erase everything.  Make SURE you have a second copy
[21:33] <thefinn93> edbian, yeah I got everything totally backed up before i started this. It says an error occured
[21:33] <edbian> thefinn93, ok
[21:33] <jrib> dumont: you never answered my question
[21:33] <thefinn93> hold on i'll get it online
[21:34] <edbian> thefinn93, gparted gave you an error just now?  Or the upgrade to 10.10 gave on error
[21:34] <edbian> thefinn93, online?
[21:34] <thefinn93> sorry it's on a netbook over ther <-- which isn't attached to the net
[21:34] <thefinn93> it gave me some error file
[21:34] <thefinn93> and gparted gave the error
[21:34] <edbian> thefinn93, lemme see all the errors.  That will help
[21:35] <thefinn93> edbian alright
[21:35] <ProtiK> thefinn93: Are you trying to install on to a netbook from a flash drive?
[21:35] <thefinn93> ProtiK yes
[21:35] <edbian> ProtiK, and it's getting stuck for him
[21:36] <ProtiK> thefinn93: You won't be able to do it with 10.10. There's some issue with gparted on a netbook. I couldn't do it until I installed 9.10 alternative
[21:36] <edbian> ProtiK, I installed it...
[21:36] <edbian> ProtiK, I've done it.  Am I special?
[21:36] <ProtiK> edbian: You're one of the few :S
[21:36] <thefinn93> ProtiK I'm actually using the desktop version of ubuntu right now
[21:37] <edbian> ProtiK, i see
[21:37] <edbian> thefinn93, Good call ;)
[21:37] <ProtiK> thefinn93: On your netbook?
[21:37] <thefinn93> ProtiK yes
[21:37] <ProtiK> thefinn93: Installed and all? :o
[21:37] <thefinn93> ProtiK netbook remix was doing the same thing so i decided to try this
[21:37] <thefinn93> ProtiK no it's live
[21:38] <ProtiK> thefinn93: Oh
[21:38] <ProtiK> thefinn93: And you're having an issue installing it because of gparted, yes?
[21:38] <thefinn93> ProtiK i believe so
[21:38] <thefinn93> ProtiK it freezes at the screen before gparted
[21:38] <edbian> thefinn93, ProtiK, I concur
[21:38] <thefinn93> when i hit the forward button
[21:38] <ProtiK> thefinn93: Use 9.10 then upgrade from there. I couldn't get any edition of 10.10 to work.
[21:39] <thefinn93> ProtiK ok
[21:39] <augdawg> where can i go to learn how to hack on unity using vala?
[21:39] <TheNavyBear> how do I make sshd and telnetd start auomaticly at boot?
[21:39] <andy__> hey guys is 10.04 very stable?
[21:39] <jrib> TheNavyBear: when you install openssh-server it will start automatically at boot
[21:39] <edbian> TheNavyBear, sshd does that already by default
[21:39] <andy__> i want to recommend it at work for our servers and desktops
[21:40] <edbian> andy__, I think so.  Not as stable as some OS's though
[21:40] <jrib> andy__: all ubuntu releases are stable by definition
[21:40] <andy__> would you guys recommend i recommend 10.04
[21:40] <augdawg> andy__ 10.04 is stable. also, 10.10 is stable as well
[21:40] <jrib> !sru | andy__
[21:40] <TheNavyBear> edbian: ok, how do I enable telnetd automatic starts
[21:40] <edbian> TheNavyBear, IDK, who uses telnet?
[21:41] <TheNavyBear> my bb
[21:41] <jrib> TheNavyBear: what do you mean by "bb"?
[21:41] <edbian> TheNavyBear, butterfinger?
[21:41] <augdawg> andy__ i would reccomend 10.04
[21:42] <andy__> augdawg,  thanks auddawd
[21:43] <TheNavyBear> jrib: blackberry
[21:43] <guntbert> TheNavyBear: seriously: why do want to use telnet?
[21:43] <TheNavyBear> I have a few devices that only do telnet
[21:43] <edbian> TheNavyBear, ssh does everything telnet does but securely.
[21:43] <edbian> TheNavyBear, Have you tried it?  My guess would be that it also starts by default.
[21:43] <andy__> another question. In NX can I set it up so that it only forwards one app, like emacs. Instead of the entire desktop
[21:44] <edbian> andy__, yes, ssh -X user@hostname
[21:44] <guntbert> TheNavyBear: don't use telnet over the internet: passwords and all are transmitted in the clear
[21:44] <edbian> andy__, Then any graphical app started will be forwarded only
[21:44] <CeilingKitten> telnet = plaintext, SSH is encrypted even before connecting. =]
[21:45] <TheNavyBear> guntbert: I understandf that
[21:45] <KFreed> Hey guys, how do I force a higher resolution through VGA? It only lets me go up to 640x480 but I know it's capable of much more
[21:46] <jrib> !fixres | KFreed
[21:46] <KFreed> (10.04)
[21:46] <guntbert> KFreed: in a virtual machine?
[21:46] <Jeruvy> what directory is menu.lst in?
[21:47] <Enkie> i had issues with my video card when i first installed linux but everything worked fine when i installed nvidias drivers
[21:47] <edbian> !grub2 | Jeruvy
[21:47] <guntbert> Jeruvy: /boot/grub    but if you are using grub2 things are different
[21:47] <edbian> Jeruvy, Yeah you don't edit menu.lst directly anymore
[21:47] <Jeruvy> guntbert: thanks but I cannot access /boot.  I'm in a initramfs shell
[21:48] <guntbert> Jeruvy: sorry, no idea about that here ...
[21:48] <Jeruvy> edbian: how would I edit this then?  It seems the kernel update broke my boot.
[21:49] <ionnick> hey does anyone know how i could list the channels?
[21:49] <edbian> Jeruvy, Read up on it.  You can still do it.  It's just a bit more complex unfortunately.  What are you trying to do?
[21:49] <CeilingKitten> type /list
[21:49] <CeilingKitten> @ ionnick, type /list
[21:49] <guntbert> CeilingKitten: no
[21:49] <Jeruvy> edbian: make my computer boot once again :)
[21:49] <ionnick> thanks
[21:49] <guntbert> ionnick: use alis to search for channels
[21:49] <CeilingKitten> oh nvm -_- you mean ubuntu update channels?
[21:49] <edbian> Jeruvy, what error is grub giving you right now?
[21:50] <guntbert> ionnick: there are too many channels on freenode
[21:50] <edbian> Jeruvy, The easiest way is probably to edit the grub menu live using the e key.
[21:50] <Jeruvy> edbian: I did, it needs rootdelay added to the boot device.
[21:50] <Jeruvy> edbian: can I do this from initramfs?
[21:50] <andy__> edbian, ssh -X is really slow. Is there a way to use it with NX?
[21:51] <edbian> Jeruvy, reboot the computer, press shift before Ubuntu starts to load to get to the grub menu, press e on the entry you want to edit, add in rootdelay, then try to boot that kernel.
[21:51] <edbian> andy__, What is NX?  I thought you ment linux
[21:51] <Jeruvy> edbian: ok thanks I will do that.
[21:51] <jinjonboo> is anyone familiar with the microcontroler atmega168 ???!
[21:51] <edbian> Jeruvy, You can do it with grub.  You cannot do it with busybox
[21:51] <guntbert> !freenx | edbian
[21:51] <andy__> edbian, is an X11 forwarding accelerator. Kind of like exceed but much faster
[21:51] <edbian> guntbert, Thanks
[21:52] <edbian> andy__, I am not aware of a way to speed up X11 forwarding.  I can say though that I don't consider it to be slow at all.
[21:53] <chicosoftware> how i get spanish support
[21:53] <Jeruvy> edbian: makes sense I couldn't get anywhere in initramfs.  Trying to boot now.
[21:53] <Diamondcite> edbian: I thought ssh -X was replaced with ssh -Y, personallt I used ssh -CY for personal use (compress + x11 forwarding)
[21:53] <andy__> edibian, it might be because you are using your text editor in the terminal. Or ur connection is local. My server is located in another city and im trying to run emacs with and x window. it lags alot
[21:53] <edbian> Diamondcite, never heard of it! :)  I can't wait to try
[21:54] <chicosoftware> spanish?
[21:54] <andy__> Diamondcite, yea you are right. most ppl know it by -XC
[21:54] <chicosoftware> please!!!!
[21:54] <edbian> andy__, Why not run emacs in the console?  That might speed it up.
[21:54] <guntbert> !es | chicosoftware
[21:54] <Diamondcite> andy_: Which type of program were you trying to forward again?
[21:54] <andy__> edibian, cant use mouse. sucks for me
[21:54] <chicosoftware> muchas gracias obottu
[21:54] <andy__> Diamondcite, emacs and some qt apps.
[21:55] <Jeruvy> edbian: ya, I'm booting again.  Thanks.
[21:55] <edbian> Jeruvy, Awesome
[21:55] <Diamondcite> andy_: Hrm.. I lack some apps.. to test with.. will something like dolphin be complex enough?
[21:55] <edbian> Jeruvy, Now you have the fun task of fixing grub persistently.  You have to read a lot :)
[21:55] <edbian> Jeruvy, It should be easier though now that you're target system is bootable.
[21:55] <Diamondcite> andy_: dolphin the KDE file manager, not the emu.
[21:56] <andy__> Diamondcite, dolphin shouldnt be a problem. I just dont want to open the window manager. mine is nautilus. I want to just open the app itself
[21:56] <andy__> Diamondcite, currently what it does is opens the desktop (nautilus) remotely
[21:57] <Diamondcite> andy_: Gnome apps tends to do that... can't launch from the command line to make it easier?
[21:57] <d3v0> hi when i start my computer ig et this message
[21:57] <d3v0> Apt Authentication issue

[21:58] <someuser> hi out there
[21:58] <mrnelson1986> hi
[21:58] <CeilingKitten> hello
[21:58] <someuser> anyone knowing ecryptfs quite good? :)
[21:58] <mrnelson1986> someuser, eh, not a whole lot, but post your question and maybe someone will know
[21:58] <d3v0> i click check, put in my password and it starts to download packages, then i get an error
[21:58] <someuser> i changed my password with passwd and now my home is broken
[21:59] <slack_baphomet> question , cannot get my wifi to work in enlightenment e17
[21:59] <slack_baphomet> any suggestions how
[21:59] <code_astronomer> d3v0: what error?
[21:59] <edbian> someuser, Are you still you?
[21:59] <mingdao> What is a relatively lightweight file browser with thumbnails for looking at 100 jpegs in a single directory?
[21:59] <edbian> someuser, type whoami
[21:59] <someuser> i am me!
[21:59] <slack_baphomet> i tried manually going through iwconfig and setting my essid but dhclient isnt picking up the network
[21:59] <edbian> someuser, ha ha ha :)
[21:59] <someuser> ;)
[21:59] <edbian> someuser, What are the permissions on your home?
[21:59] <mingdao> NB: I have been using "feh -t -Sfilename -E 128 -y 128 -W 1024 *"
[22:00] <someuser> have to boot it again
[22:00] <edbian> someuser, k
[22:00] <edbian> someuser, Try booting using the recovery mode.  It will let you log in without complaining about your /home
[22:00] <someuser> i just can do "alt+f2" and then open xterm
[22:00] <jrib> mingdao: I was about to suggest feh... not sure what exactly you are looking for.  Maybe "pornview"?
[22:01] <andy__> Diamondcite, i launched it from the command line in NX and it worked fine. but the window was stuck inside the remote desktop.
[22:01] <mingdao> jrib: No, I don't look at photos of your sister.
[22:01] <mingdao> touchee
[22:01] <someuser> i could also add another user of course...
[22:01] <mrnelson1986> someuser, so you changed your password and dont remember it? and your encrypted home folder won't let you in now? i'm confused as to what exactly happened
[22:01] <Diamondcite> andy__: isn't NX a remote desktop app? and I'm not sure why emacs would bring up nautilus...
[22:02] <jrib> mingdao: please don't do that.  Despite it's name, it's just an image viewing app.
[22:02] <jrib> its even
[22:02] <andy__> Diamondcite, emacs doesnt bring up nautilus. NX does. and within nautilus and gnome, and within that i have to open emacs
[22:02] <edbian> someuser, just figure the permissions on home.  I don't care how you do it
[22:02] <someuser> what happened? i wanted to change my login-password. what i did. and now my home is broken
[22:02] <Diamondcite> andy_: Is your emacs console based? or graphical?
[22:02] <edbian> someuser, I don't know what happened
[22:03] <andy__> Diamondcite, exceed does it so that you can just log in remotely to a terminal and run apps and the app is forwarded to ur desktop
[22:03] <andy__> the emacs im running is graphical
[22:03] <sam__> hello?
[22:03] <someuser> my home is still "mine"
[22:03] <sam__> kde won't start
[22:03] <Diamondcite> andy__: So how about something like... "ssh -CY user@host emacs" ?
[22:03] <edbian> someuser, mmm, and you're you (or so you claim)
[22:03] <sam__> i get this when i run startkde http://pastebin.com/PwtUSD9z
[22:03] <edbian> someuser, What is the error exactly?
[22:03] <andy__> Diamondcite, that solution is very very laggy
[22:04] <someuser> the error is that my home was encrypted and ecryptfs won't decrypt it
[22:04] <jrmcm> hi all, is there a way to clean up the grub boot loader. I am dual booting with win 7 and ubuntu. I have updated ubuntu and now there are 3 different boot options for it.
[22:04] <someuser> not even with my initial login-password
[22:04] <someuser> (which is right)
[22:04] <sam__> hello?
[22:04] <edbian> someuser, oh, look at your keyring?  (can you)?
[22:05] <mrnelson1986> someuser, you didnt happen to write down the really long random series of digits that it gives you when you create an encrypted home do you?
[22:05] <Diamondcite> andy__: I see.. latency is hard to deal with though.. in any situation (I used to X11 forward vnc from the remote side, but that's still remote desktop and no better than freenx?)
[22:05] <someuser> mrnelson: the long what? *sigh*
[22:05] <someuser> edbian: how can i access the keyring?
[22:05] <edbian> someuser, Perhaps you can change your password back?
[22:05] <andy__> Diamondcite, freenx is wayyyy faster than vnc
[22:06] <edbian> someuser, it's a graphical app.  I'm not sure the term command for it
[22:06] <someuser> edbian: of course i did that. but this did not solve the problem
[22:06] <mrnelson1986> someuser, when you create an encrypted home folder, way back when you installed ubuntu, it gives you a recovery code which is like a 15-20 digit code of random numbers and letters
[22:06] <someuser> mrnelson1986: and these are the f***** characters i need now?
[22:06] <eve> ??
[22:07] <eve> cz?
[22:07] <mrnelson1986> someuser, and tells you "write this down so you don't lose it so you can un-encrypt your home folder if something happens to your install"
[22:07] <mrnelson1986> someuser, well, it is a foolproof way to recover what is on your home folder
[22:07] <someuser> nothing happened, i just wanted t o c h a n g e m y password
[22:07] <mrnelson1986> someuser, there may be other ways, but that is 100% what will work
[22:08] <clayd> how can i see what is using memory and how much from the command line?
[22:08] <mrnelson1986> someuser, i dont mean to upset you, i was just saying a solution i know will work
[22:08] <mingdao> jrib: sorry ... still inappropriate name ... wouldn't install it and give someone the wrong idea ... few will do
[22:08] <someuser> so i read now you can't just passwd your password -.-
[22:08] <someuser> ok, got that
[22:08] <someuser> :)
[22:08] <jrmcm> hi all, is there a way to clean up the grub boot loader. I am dual booting with win 7 and ubuntu. I have updated ubuntu and now there are 3 different boot options for it.
[22:08] <someuser> this is so rediculous
[22:08] <someuser> especially as i know my old password!
[22:09] <code_astronomer> jrmcm: edit the grub.cfg file
[22:09] <code_astronomer> ?
[22:09] <jrib> mingdao: you might want to check it out and see if it's the app you are looking for.  If it is, you could always recompile it with a new name
[22:09] <jrmcm> ok thx
[22:09] <prometoys> hi, is there a new users wikipage or so for meego?
[22:09] <mingdao> jrib: what 'upstream' do you work on?
[22:10] <jrib> mingdao: dead project :)
[22:10] <jrmcm> code_astro:where is grub.cfg?
[22:10] <sieson> I have a huge csv file (5GB) and I want to just remove its first 2 lines. How can I do this without opening the file?
[22:11] <mingdao> jrib: I've used Slackware (and worked on the project) for some many years ... just a few days into an Ubuntu install, and can't even figure out grub :-)  .... don't know if it would be worth the time to figure out how to recompile a gui app atm
[22:11] <earthmeLon> So, I put a mouse cursor theme pack in my ~/.icon/ and I am able to change to that theme.  The theme changes all but the NORMAL cursor icon.  I am using Compiz and Emerald theme manager.  I'm really confused :P
[22:11] <mingdao> jrib: yeah, I can relate to dead projects
[22:11] <code_astronomer> jrmcm: /boot/grub/grub.cfg
[22:11] <jrib> mingdao: I don't know of other light weight image viewers.  Maybe gthumb?
[22:11] <clayd> how do you sort a top command by memory?
[22:12] <prometoys> ups, wrong channel :)
[22:12] <code_astronomer> jrib: sorry wrong jr
[22:12] <Lemming> hi there, could someone here tell me, how to define which display should be used over putty/ssh?
[22:12] <jrib> clayd: hit F
[22:12] <clayd> thanks
[22:12] <code_astronomer> oops... I'm going mental
[22:12] <jrmcm> ok thx im really new to ubuntu
[22:12] <mingdao> jrib: probably just stick with feh ... can't complain about it, and the thumbnail mode window fits perfectly here
[22:12] <dajhorn> sieson: You can't.   `tail +2 MyFile.csv` will get you the desired result, but you'll need 5GB of temporary space.
[22:12] <code_astronomer> jrmcm: it's ok
[22:12]  * turd fæces
[22:12] <code_astronomer> jrmcm: so what if you're new?
[22:13] <someuser> ok guys thank you
[22:13] <code_astronomer> jrmcm: I'm new to ubuntu too.  I usually use a different distro
[22:13] <mingdao> so you guys get this spammer from 74.60.184.154 also ;)
[22:13] <mingdao> some freenode staff should kline it
[22:13] <someuser> i will also try some forums but i don't think i will recover my data
[22:14] <jrib> mingdao: your wish is...
[22:14] <justyellowboy> Hi guys! I have this "MadCatz 4716" Xbox360 controller, and I plugged it in, today. The LED shows I'm Player One, but how do I map the keys to inputs?
[22:14] <Siph0n> If I am using gconf-editor to set some power options, does the Power Management Preferences interfere with it? I set the closing the lid option to "nothing" in gconf-editor, but in the Preferences it doesnt have that option... only Blank Screen. When I close my lid it blanks the screen... any ideas ?
[22:14] <edbian> someuser, you set things up so that it is pretty much impossible too :(
[22:14] <mingdao> jrib: ?
[22:14] <jrib> mingdao: he was k-lined
[22:14] <mingdao> jrib: missed it
[22:14] <someuser> what i don't understand: why doesn't it accept my old passphrase?
[22:15] <mrnelson1986> someuser, you dont have that passcode huh? :(  my only last ditch effort would be to try to boot via a live cd and access it and put in your password when prompted (mounting in nautilus)
[22:15] <bastidrazor> clayd: press M  , that is a capital M
[22:15] <robs1958> What's happening good people
[22:15] <pingu> hello
[22:15] <code_astronomer> hello
[22:15] <someuser> ok i will try that. thanks for the support guys!
[22:15] <mrnelson1986> someuser, because someone could have got ahold of your cpu and tried to change your password so it probably locks it out
[22:15] <mingdao> jrib: see it now ...
[22:15] <mrnelson1986> someuser, good luck, sorry couldnt be more helpful
[22:15] <jrmcm> ok its a read only file
[22:16] <jrmcm> how do i edit it?
[22:16] <pingu> I have a problem with the bluetooth on an asus 1005PG
[22:16] <code_astronomer> jrmcm: sudo [edit app] /boot/grub/grub.cfg
[22:16] <robs1958> Question:  I am unable to telnet from Server_A to Client_B.  The /var/log/syslog on client_B says the following: execv( /opt/omni/lbin/inet ) failed: Exec format error (errno = 8)
[22:16] <robs1958> Any ideas?
[22:16] <jrmcm> ok thx, i may be back :)
[22:16] <pingu> I am unable to enable it and the eee-control daemon cannot start
[22:16] <jrib> robs1958: well the first question is why are you using telnet instead of ssh?
[22:16] <code_astronomer> jrmcm: where [edit app] is something like, gedt vi or nano ...something like that
[22:17] <robs1958> jrib....its a long story...suffice it to say that it is necessary at this point in time
[22:17] <jrib> !grub2 | jrmcm, code_astronomer
[22:17] <dajhorn> robs1958: The problem is on the non-Ubuntu system.  You'll probably need to get help elsewhere.
[22:17] <jrib> robs1958: well my second comment is that you are using something in /opt
[22:17] <robs1958> I'm well aware of the security issues....so no need to discuss that
[22:17] <robs1958> yes
[22:18] <code_astronomer> ubottu: so clinical
[22:18] <jrib> jrmcm, code_astronomer: grub.cfg isn't meant to be edited directly
[22:18] <jrmcm> ok thx again
[22:18] <code_astronomer> ubottu: I thought ubuntu used to promote as the peoples distro
[22:18] <robs1958> the error message indicates that /opt/omni/bbin/inet is not executing.  The questions is:  why is it not executing?
[22:18] <robs1958> pardon me...meant to say  /opt/omni/lbin/inet
[22:19] <dajhorn> robs1958: Try your luck in an HPUX forum (if that is what you're running).
[22:19] <robs1958> I already have...and it did yield a few good clues
[22:20] <Supari> hey guys i want to trim down ubuntus kernel memory usage is there a page that you can reffer me to ?
[22:20] <Supari> i have blacklisted many modules but i still need a slimmer kernel
[22:22] <dajhorn> Supari: The best you'll likely get is to recompile the kernel with -Os or roll your own configuration entirely.   The distro kernel isn't all that bad.
[22:22] <Onkar_> Hi all
[22:23] <Onkar_> this is the ubuntu support channel right?
[22:23] <justyellowboy> Can anyone help me map the inputs to a MadCatz controller? It's lighting up correctly...
[22:23] <edbian> Onkar_, heck yes!
[22:23] <Onkar_> awesome
[22:23] <edbian> justyellowboy, I can point you in the right direction
[22:23] <edbian> justyellowboy, gimmie 10 minutes to order my pizza
[22:23] <justyellowboy> Thanks, so much.
[22:23] <sieson> dajhorn:: thanks it worked but I had to change it instead of +2 it should have been --lines=+2
[22:24] <Onkar_> I'm trying to find a way to install ubuntu on my amd sempron 3000 based PC
[22:24] <Onkar_> doesn't work
[22:24] <Onkar_> it's a 32 bit processor
[22:24] <Onkar_> any suggestions
[22:24] <Onkar_> ??
[22:24] <major_redhat> whats the best way to unrar a rar
[22:25] <Onkar_> ...
[22:25] <major_redhat> archive manager says its not supported
[22:25] <Onkar_> use tar
[22:25] <jrib> !unrar | major_redhat
[22:25] <erUSUL> Onkar_: tar wont handle rar
[22:25] <Pici> !doesntwork | Onkar_
[22:25] <Onkar_> use 7z
[22:25] <justyellowboy> major_redhat, there's an unrar package that "patches" Archive Manager to support rars. It's in Synaptic.
[22:26] <major_redhat> justyellowboy: what am i looking for in the filter to find the patch
[22:26] <justyellowboy> I think the package is simply called "unrar."
[22:26] <Onkar_> I'm trying to find a way to install ubuntu on my amd sempron 3000 based PC ... i'm tryin to find a distribution of ubuntu that supports AMD Sempron 3000+ but i'm unable to do so. Any suggestions?
[22:26] <major_redhat> oh ok
[22:27] <Onkar_> I'm trying to find a way to install ubuntu on my amd sempron 3000 based PC ... i'm tryin to find a distribution of ubuntu that supports AMD Sempron 3000+ but i'm unable to do so. Any suggestions? I see that all recent ubuntu distributions are for 64 bit procs
[22:27] <sbeck_> No, they are not.
[22:27] <Pici> Onkar_: What happens when you try?
[22:28] <Onkar_> well, the CD apparently fails the disc check always
[22:28] <sbeck_> There are versions for 32 and versions for 64 Bit.
[22:28] <Pici> Onkar_: did you burn this from an iso?
[22:28] <Onkar_> yes
[22:28] <Pici> Onkar_: Can you do an md5 check of that iso?
[22:28] <Pici> !md5 | Onkar_
[22:28] <bogomo> helo
[22:29] <unam3> some one suggested sleuthkit  when I asked yesterday to recover deleted files, just to make it clear, Is it necessary to boot a live system to utilize it ?
[22:29] <Onkar_> ok
[22:29] <Onkar_> gimme some thime
[22:29] <Onkar_> *time
[22:31] <toyman61> !!!HELP!!! How can I get IEEE 802.11n speed on my D-Link DWA-140 adapter on Ubuntu 10.04 ?  It works, but only with IEEE 802.11g speed (54 Mbps). Anyone ?
[22:31] <zetheroo> anyone know why I have to unlock the keyring three times on every boot?
[22:31] <Onkar_> btw I think I only tried with i386 Live images
[22:32] <Onkar_> and not amd64
[22:32] <Onkar_> should I try amd64 instead
[22:33] <sbeck_> Onkar, it doesn't matter if it's i386 or amd64 ISO.
[22:33] <Onkar_> ok
[22:33] <sbeck_> Your ISO has to pass the md5 test.
[22:33] <sbeck_> After that you can burn it and boot from the CD.
[22:34] <Onkar_> am doing the md5sum test on ubuntu-10.04.1-desktop-i386.iso
[22:34] <Onkar_> here's the result
[22:34] <Onkar_> 9a95ed6f6ec38fb58c446dba1add6a08  ubuntu-10.04.1-desktop-i386.iso

[22:36] <allaire> hey, how can I change the groupid of a certain folder?
[22:36] <shamimzaki> Hi, can I expect a minimal kde if I install kdebase-apps and kdebase-bin only ?
[22:36] <IdleOne> Onkar: they should be identical
[22:36] <jrib> !permissions > allaire
[22:36] <jrib> allaire: what folder?
[22:36] <FardadJalili> is there a MC68K emulator package for ubuntu?
[22:37] <allaire> jrib: an home folder
[22:37] <allaire> a folder in my home dir.
[22:37] <jrib> allaire: chgrp, see ubottu's link for details
[22:38] <unam3> how could folders beginning with period (hidden folders) be removed using chown and chmod ?
[22:38] <Onkar_> I think it's failing the md5sum test
[22:38] <Onkar_> giving ::::: md5sum: WARNING: 67 of 67 listed files could not be read
[22:38] <jrib> unam3: you mean you don't want chown and chmod to affect them?  What exactly do you want to accomplish?
[22:38] <jrmcm> ubottu: i went to the link for grub2, and looked it over i didn't see any way to remove entries from the boot menu.  It says to edit the /etc/default/grub file. Am i missing something?
[22:39] <FardadJalili> anyone can suggest me a good MC68000 emulator for linux?
[22:39] <jrib> jrmcm: what entries do you want to remove?
[22:39] <LjL> FardadJalili, i'm not aware of a barebones processor simulator, but there are a few emulators of *systems* that use the m68k, like E-UAE (Amiga), Basilisk2 (Mac), TIEmu (TI-89/92)
[22:39] <unam3> I used chown and chmod yester day to modify the rights and ownership over a folder that withhold hidden folders, and after that the hidden folders where gone
[22:39] <zetheroo> anyone know why I have to unlock the keyring three times on every boot?
[22:40] <jrib> unam3: what did you execute exactly?
[22:40] <jrib> !who | unam3
[22:40] <jrmcm> it shows 2.6.14-xx and 2.6.25-xx, im only using 2.6.32 now
[22:40] <shamimzaki> Hi, can I expect a minimal kde if I install kdebase-apps and kdebase-bin only ?
[22:40] <unam3> ehm
[22:41] <jrmcm> i had to update to get my wireless working
[22:41] <FardadJalili> LjL, thank you
[22:41] <jrib> jrmcm: just remove the corresponding linux-image-* packages in synaptic
[22:41] <Braber01> I'm using ubuntu 10.04 I think and I'm trying to get a wireless device to work how to i get it to work?
[22:41] <jrmcm> ah i knew i missing something simple
[22:42] <jrib> unam3: well chown and chmod won't delete files
[22:42] <coz_> shamimzaki,  I no longer use kde   if no one knows for sure here  go to the #kubuntu channel or the #kde channel :)
[22:42] <pylix> is 10.04 stable?
[22:42] <coz_> pylix,  yes it is
[22:42] <Guest80719> @pylix YEAH!
[22:42] <jrmcm> yeah its what im running
[22:42] <coz_> pylix,  is the LTS  =  long term support   version
[22:42] <Guest80719> 10.10 is out BTW
[22:43] <Braber01> I know I haven't had an internet connection on this computer for a while
[22:43] <jrmcm> Braber01: use a plug in ethernet and run all updates
[22:43] <pylix> i have 10.10 lol i thought for some reason i had 10.01
[22:43] <justyellowboy> Okay, looks like I have the controller working, but not all of my buttons are operational.
[22:43] <Glowball> Today, I installed Ubuntu 10.10 on a laptop of a friend of mine. After a fresh install, it complained about the signing key of the extra repositories. What could be wrong?
[22:43] <coz_> pylix,  oh :)
[22:43] <ilab_> How can I list packages that are installed by their size?
[22:43] <unam3> I where inside the folder that withhold the folders and specified that chown and chmod would affect all files and folders recursively....
[22:43] <Braber01> @jrmcm I'm running the updates right now.
[22:44] <sbeck_> Onkar, are you still there ?
[22:44] <coz_> ilab_,   try   dpkg-query -W --showformat='${Installed-Size;10}\t${Package}\n' | sort -k1,1n
[22:44] <jrib> ilab_: you could use aptitude for example...
[22:44] <ilab_> coz_ just saw that thanks
[22:44] <ilab_> jrib: low mem sys not running aptitude
[22:45] <coz_> ilab_,  also    dpkg-query --show --showformat='${Package;-50}\t${Installed-Size}\n' | sort -k 2 -n
[22:45] <jrib> ilab_: aptitude isn't really an intensive program
[22:45] <Host11> ??
[22:45] <coz_> ilab_,  one more      dpkg-query --show --showformat='${Package;-50}\t${Installed-Size} ${Status}\n' | sort -k 2 -n |grep -v deinstall
[22:45] <jrmcm> braber01: I was having the same problems with my laptop, after running update manager and rebooting it started working
[22:46] <szaman> hi
[22:46] <Braber01> @jrmcm sombody at a computer store told me to go to System > Admin > Restricted Hardware does that sound right?
[22:46] <evelyette> hi
[22:46] <Host11> this is my first time useing xchat
[22:47] <evelyette> can I edit some configuration files instead of runnning dpkg-reconfigure on a specific package ?
[22:47] <zetheroo> anyone know why I have to unlock the keyring three times on every boot?
[22:47] <jrib> evelyette: yes?
[22:47] <evelyette> jrib, how ?
[22:47] <Braber01> um the tcsh is the only Shell that will do spell check for you right?
[22:47] <jrib> evelyette: real answer: dpkg-reconfigure may do more than just edit a configuration file.  What exactly do you want to accomplish
[22:48] <jrib> Braber01: zsh does spell checking on commands for me
[22:48] <evelyette> jrib, I don't want to use dpkg-reconfigure on slapd ... I want a configuration file
[22:48] <coz_>  zetheroo  do you have the system on automatic login?
[22:48] <evelyette> but don't know what dpkg-reconfigure actually does (on which files) ?
[22:48] <jrmcm> try system/admin/hardware dirvers
[22:48] <jrmcm> it might pop up might not, mine didnt
[22:48] <zetheroo> coz_: yes ... as on my other 3 Ubuntu running systems
[22:48] <Braber01> @jrib I'm not familar with the zsh how simalr is it to bash or tcsh?
[22:49] <maco> evelyette: dpkg -L slapd | grep etc       <-- id use that to find the config files
[22:49] <jrib> evelyette: /etc/default/slapd probably
[22:49] <Glowball> Today, I installed Ubuntu 10.10 on a laptop of a friend of mine. After a fresh install, it complained about the signing key of the extra repositories. What could be wrong?
[22:49] <jrib> evelyette: /usr/share/doc/slapd/README.Debian.gz is probably enlightening too
[22:50] <coz_> zetheroo,   that may be why,,howeve,,, right click on the network manage applet and selec "Edit connections"   then  click on the wireless tab,, be sure you wireless network is slected and click on "Edit",,, then  at the bottom on the new window ..tick the "Available to all users"
[22:50] <coz_> zetheroo,  I t hink that is still valid
[22:51] <evelyette> jrib, hm, ok I've got the files but what would be the best way to check for one option in particular
[22:51] <evelyette>  Do you want the database to be removed when slapd is purged? ... this is the option ?
[22:51] <jrib> evelyette: probably check slapd documentation
[22:51] <coz_> zetheroo,  the only problem with that option is that it may leave the system somewhat unsecured
[22:51] <earthmeLon> So, I just deleted /usr/share/icons/* recursively.  ;_;  Any suggestions?
[22:52] <coz_> earthmeLon,  well that should leave the system with no icons  yes?
[22:52] <zetheroo> coz_: ok thanks, I'll do that. Another thing that happens every so often is when asked for my sudo password and upon entering it in and clicking on "Authenticate", nothing happens ... the "Authenticate" window just sits there with the text input field having disappeared ....
[22:52] <coz_> zetheroo,  that one  I am not sure of
[22:52] <earthmeLon> coz_ yes, but it was done without understanding the true consequences
[22:53] <earthmeLon> Im trying to figure out the best way to restore myhorrible mistake
[22:53] <ilab_> How to list all packages that depend on a particular package?
[22:53] <coz_> earthmeLon,  welll someone could upload the default folder
[22:53] <nellwee> hi . is there a linux program that can automatically scan for all wma and convert them to mp3 format without manually doing each one  one at a time ?
[22:53] <coz_> earthmeLon,   that should do it once you reboot
[22:54] <Guest25864> I have lost audio volume control. How do you reinstall audio packages without a complete system reinstall?
[22:54] <earthmeLon> What about packages I've downloaded with icons?  Those are also gone coz_
[22:54] <coz_> earthmeLon,  well not sure ...I have not experimented with deleting the icons folder
[22:54] <usr13> nellwee: There may be a script someone has written for that particular purpose but ... finding it, well I dono...
[22:54] <coz_> earthmeLon,   you may have to get the default folder from someone and start again
[22:54] <salvatore> ubuntu-it
[22:54] <zakwilson> The *nix way to do something to a bunch of files is a short shell script, though if you're asking that question it's probably not an appropriate solution. Why do you want to convert all the files? You will lose quality.
[22:55] <earthmeLon> coz_ Yeah, I know.  I was thinking maybe some kind of dpkg command might check for missing files such as icons
[22:55] <cdcdcdc> running 10.10 i386 and having trouble with nvidia g210m. can someone look at my xorg.conf and see if i'm doing something wrong
[22:55] <usr13> nellwee: google
[22:55] <salvatore> #ubuntu-it
[22:55] <coz_> earthmeLon, off hand I cant think of a command to do that
[22:55] <coz_> earthmeLon,  is this ubuntu 10.10?
[22:55] <nellwee> usr13,  ok will try google thanks for your imput
[22:56] <IdleOne> salvatore: /join #ubuntu-it
[22:56] <coz_> earthmeLon,  if it is 10.10  I have a deafult icons folder
[22:57] <salvatore> IdleOne grazie... sono nuovo, ps posso impostarlo come avvio fisso?
[22:57] <w30> Guest25864, what do you mean lost volume control? Do you mean the volume control applet in your task bar?
[22:57] <jrib> earthmeLon: dpkg -S /usr/share/icons/    reinstall those packages
[22:57] <jrmcm> what is the cmd for updating the grub bootloader?
[22:57] <Host11> can anyone help me out here im new to this i just got it
[22:58] <w30> Guest202496, if so reinstall the indicator applet
[22:58] <coz_> earthmeLon,  I am uploading the default icons folder now
[22:59] <Guest25864> both the task bar and sound in system preferences give me the message "waiting for sound system to respond" instead of giving me the sound control panel.
[22:59] <jrmcm> what is the cmd for updating the grub bootloader?
[22:59] <earthmeLon> coz_ That's really great.  Thanks
[22:59] <IdleOne> jrmcm: update-grub
[22:59] <coz_> earthmeLon,  in the mean time try this command     dpkg -S /usr/share/icons | cut -d: -f1 | sed 's/,//g' | xargs sudo aptitude reinstall
[22:59] <LjL> AuGold2: you're banned, please join #ubuntu-ops if you believe that to be in error
[23:00] <jrmcm> ths idle, i missed the -
[23:00] <jrmcm> thx*
[23:00] <coz_> earthmeLon,  if that command doesnt work try this one     sudo aptitude reinstall `dpkg -S /usr/share/icons | cut -d: f1 | sed 's/,//g'`
[23:01] <coz_> earthmeLon,  get all of the marks on that command  ,,,I would just copy and paste it into the terminal
[23:01] <Guest25864> I believe something is corrupted but lost the name of the everything package to do an apt-get install "everything"
[23:03] <coz_> earthmeLon,  did that command work?
[23:04] <belal1> wassup ma brothas
[23:05] <belal1> comradega-rrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr-y

[23:05] <Glowball> Today, I installed Ubuntu 10.10 on a laptop of a friend of mine. After a fresh install, it complained about the signing key of the extra repositories. What could be wrong?
[23:05] <coz_> earthmeLon,  last resort..here is the package    http://dl.dropbox.com/u/132551/icons.tar.gz    decompress it  then open terminal   gksudo nautilus   ..maneuver to /usr/share   and cut and paste that foler in ,,,,I am only leaving this package on dropbox until you have finished downloaiding it
[23:05] <HRPufnstuf> I'm using PAN for Newsgroups. Where are the pics going that download? I need the PATH?
[23:05] <coz_> earthmeLon,  you will have to reinstall chromium borswer
[23:06] <Vardan> ասդ
[23:06] <belal1> after using the update-manager in Xubuntu, clicking the "restart now" button yields nothing.  I have to manually click "restart" from the shutdown menu

[23:07] <coz_> earthmeLon,  that still isnt going to have the chromium browser stuff...you will likely have to reinstall chromium browser
[23:08] <belal1> no hablo en espanol senor
[23:08] <earthmeLon> Well, it's doing that for every package.  I need to remove some ppa packages .  One sec
[23:08] <maco> belal1: the spanish message was at the person who was *actually speaking spanish* -- ie, not you
[23:08] <coz_> earthmeLon,  i would reboot first

[23:08] <belal1> (lol)
[23:09] <coz_> earthmeLon,  ok I have to break here...but I will return in about 30 minutes...if here...let me know how that went
[23:09] <BostX> guys, I'm evaluating the ubuntu one
[23:09] <BostX> and I'm kindof dissappointed
[23:10] <Moon_Rising2> running xubuntu and when i go to user settings and make a new user it never saves my changes
[23:10] <justyellowboy> Nevermind, I got it.
[23:10] <flohuels1> =-O
[23:12] <mrcheesete0> I have a question about Ubuntu
[23:12] <datacrusher>  mrcheesete0 how great!
[23:12] <mrcheesete0> I'm considering getting it, and switching from my Windows 7 to it, but how do I know if all my hardware, and my programs will be compatible?
[23:12] <datacrusher> you defnetly is in the right channel.
[23:12] <datacrusher> .ask
[23:12] <datacrusher> !ask
[23:12] <Glowball> mrcheesete0: You can download a live cd and run Ubuntu from there, without touching your installation
[23:12] <datacrusher> mrcheesete0, thats easy. download a desktop version of ubuntu and do a live try
[23:13] <BostX> mrcheesete0, just try it and u will see pretty soon
[23:13] <mrcheesete0> so there is a way to download it and test it to see if it works with everything before fully installing it?
[23:13] <maco> mrcheesete0: yep thats what the live cd is for
[23:13] <BostX> Glowball, mrcheesete0 live cd says nothing about restricted drivers
[23:13] <maco> mrcheesete0: jsut put it in, reboot, and choose to test it
[23:14] <kv102t> Afternoon peeps.  So i installed the firewall util from SPM. Is there a way to see what port are being used at the moment.
[23:14] <Glowball> BostX: It gives a notice whether restricted drivers for your hardware are available, though.
[23:15] <lwizardl> hello
[23:15] <mrcheesete0> also when choosing 32 or 64 bit does it matter?  I currently use a 64-bit install of Win7, because thats what came with my desktop when I bought it
[23:15] <BostX> maco, Glowball, mrcheesete0 I just had a minor isue with broadcom wifi driver
[23:15] <lwizardl> anyone here use ubuntu for video production ?
[23:15] <kv102t> Afternoon peeps.  So i installed the firewall util from SPM. Is there a way to see what port are being used at the moment.?
[23:16] <evelyette> jrib, ok I got these strings: http://dpaste.com/279603/ ... how can I change them now with debconf ?
[23:16] <BostX> maco, Glowball, mrcheesete0 It was that straight forward but it was just a little disurbance
[23:16] <maco> mrcheesete0: not really... there's some stuff that a few years ago was tougher to get working 64bit (flash, wine) but nowadays its not been a problem for me. the warnings against 64bit are mostly to keep people who dont know what an architecture is from getting the one that doesnt work on (practically) everything
[23:16] <kv102t> lwizaedl: They say to use PiTiVi
[23:16] <Glowball> BostX: Anyway, he won't know without a real install. But if things on the live cd don't even work properly, he know he doesn't have to bother trying it.
[23:17] <jrib> evelyette: I don't know.  I'd suggest just consulting slapd documentation on the appropriate options in the configuration file if you don't want to use dpkg-reconfigure
[23:18] <BostX> maco, Glowball, mrcheesete0 he should try! In my case I did the installation with a normal network cable and then
[23:18] <A_New_Server> In Xchat, how do I get the auto-complete to go to a colon rather than a comma? It's not the same as in Windows :[
[23:18] <BostX> maco, Glowball, mrcheesete0 and then it downloaded the restricted driver automaticaly
[23:18] <Glowball> A_New_Server: It's somewhere in the settings, I'm sure. But I'm not using XChat right now, so I can't tell exactly where it is
[23:19] <Glowball> BostX: But it already tells you when you're on the live cd when there are restricted drivers available :)
[23:20] <A_New_Server> Glowball, do you know if the actual thing to open it is called "Settings"? Because the Xchat faq used Settings too while on mine I see preferences (And I know they mean pretty much the same, but just making sure)
[23:20] <Glowball> A_New_Server: no clue, sorry :)
[23:20] <A_New_Server> Glowball, sadface.
[23:20] <Glowball> I don't even have XChat installed anymore
[23:20] <clon> cero
[23:21] <Glowball> But I'm sure most of the users in here do, so just wait for somebody else
[23:21] <belal1> is there any irc client for linux that is compatible with mirc's scripts?
[23:21] <cannonball> I have xchat installed, what's wrong?
[23:21] <Glowball> belal1: No. But mIRC works quite well in Wine. Unicode doesn't, sounds don't, leaving just some minor annoyances
[23:22] <_16BitSubsystem_> i'm having a problem with the pidgin im client
[23:22] <belal1> i'd like to get away from using wine :/
[23:23] <nkh> hello , i have some problem with compiling kernel , who can help ?
[23:23] <nkh> s
[23:23] <jrib> !kernel > nkh
[23:23] <jrib> belal1: don't use mirc then.  There are plenty of nice irc clients for linux
[23:24] <_16BitSubsystem_> when i attemp to connect to my messenger account it says me that can't validate soe kind of certificate or something
[23:24] <nkh> TnQ !;) lol
[23:24] <Glowball> belal1: I'm afraid you'll also have to get away from using mIRC script too :(
[23:24] <UnNaturalHigh> anyone here with an intel 5100 chipset finding wireless does not work so well?
[23:25] <belal1> aww shucks =/
[23:25] <belal1> no more xdcc =/
[23:25] <mrcheesete0> im downloading the CD then I'll burn it with PowerISO and use the liveCD
[23:25] <mrcheesete0> but once I'm in it, how willI check if there are any non-conmpatible items
[23:25] <rww> _16BitSubsystem_: which version of Ubuntu are you using?
[23:25] <Glowball> belal1: However, there is a project of some guy trying to make an mSL compiler, but it seems to be dead for quite some time, at version 0.07 alpha.. :P
[23:26] <_16BitSubsystem_> rww: ubuntu 10.10 LOB
[23:26] <belal1> lol
[23:26] <belal1> that's not going to help, but thanks
[23:26] <rww> _16BitSubsystem_: pastebin the output of "apt-cache policy pidgin"
[23:27] <CeilingKitten> @_16BitSubsystem_, i believe it requires you to accept an SSL cert from MSN usually it asks you on first connection if you wish to allow it. (http://www.webupd8.org/2010/11/install-pidgin-276-in-ubuntu-with-msn.html) Posted 2days ago so it much be a recent problem
[23:27] <rww> _16BitSubsystem_: CeilingKitten is correct. There's also an update to Ubuntu to fix it that's either released or about to be released; the pastebin will say whether you have it ;)
[23:28] <_16BitSubsystem_> rww: CeilingKitten: thanks a lot
[23:28] <CeilingKitten> no problem =], i quite like pidgin myself, but i was having some issues with msn in previous releases.  Might give it a go again.
[23:29] <amoko> if you want to be elite, use bitlbee for msn
[23:30] <Glowball> belal1: Actually, I talked to the developer once. He has already implemented quite a lot identifiers, the reason of its low version number is mainly because there are no events, just aliases. But once the most important ones are implemented, it actually is quite usable for daily, non-specific scripting usage :)
[23:30] <rww> _16BitSubsystem_: The relevant Ubuntu bug is https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/pidgin/+bug/676972 , btw.
[23:31] <_16BitSubsystem_> !!!
[23:31] <CeilingKitten> @amoko ah another multi im client, might give it ago. =] thanks for the link.
[23:31] <_16BitSubsystem_> 3 hours left for upgrading!!
[23:31] <CeilingKitten> ^ouch
[23:31] <btQuark> is non working n wlan with iwlagn a current known defect?
[23:31] <btQuark> on 10.10
[23:31] <_16BitSubsystem_> i'm gonna cancel that
[23:32] <_16BitSubsystem_> why the 10.10 has a lot of bugs more than another versions and other operative systems that i had seem in my whole life.
[23:32] <Glowball> _16BitSubsystem_: It is fixed in the newest Pidgin 2.7.7, and there is a workaround available for older versions.
[23:33] <_16BitSubsystem_> Glowball: thank you
[23:33] <CeilingKitten> =| lol you all are making me doubt about the install of 10.10 im doing right now lol
[23:33] <_16BitSubsystem_> ok thanks everybody helped me
[23:33] <earthmeLon> update or fresh, CeilingKitten ?
[23:34] <_16BitSubsystem_> CelingKitten: are you installing it
[23:34] <CeilingKitten> @earthmeLon fresh off the CD
[23:34] <_16BitSubsystem_> well i must recommend you
[23:34] <_16BitSubsystem_> dont do it
[23:34] <_16BitSubsystem_> but
[23:34] <CeilingKitten> installing as we speak =], my next course of action is LAMP and how to install "install.php" packages
[23:34] <Glowball> _16BitSubsystem_: In fact, I didn't encounter any major bugs in 10.10, so I'd call it coincidence. But it's a fact that older versions have had at least 6 more months of testing and bug hunting, so they are probably (a little bit) more stable by now, yes.
[23:34] <_16BitSubsystem_> do everything you want
[23:35] <earthmeLon> 10.04 was good.  I upgraded to 10.10 and had some gfx card issues but fixed them
[23:35] <_16BitSubsystem_> Glowball: hmm, you got a point there.
[23:35] <_16BitSubsystem_> anyway
[23:35] <CeilingKitten> well im planning to run it headless (no monitor), on LAN with a php file manager that has filetagging supported
[23:35] <_16BitSubsystem_> they must verify and fix all bugs as the developers can
[23:36] <_16BitSubsystem_> before releasenew versions
[23:36] <CeilingKitten> unless someone knows a great filesystem or FUSE that has tagging, =\ all the ones i have found thus far lose all tags when moved or renamed, metadata, etc,.  =\  maybe i need a database of some sort for filetagging.  Any recommendations?
[23:37] <_16BitSubsystem_> i mean i'm very grateful with ubuntu
[23:37] <_16BitSubsystem_> must to fix that
[23:37] <Glowball> _16BitSubsystem_: They do. But before the final release, there is only a very small number of beta testers, so a lot of bugs get overlooked. If you don't want to be an early adopter (and encounter a few more bugs than you might expect), put your 6 month update schedule 2 months behind Ubuntu's
[23:38] <Glowball> (So update to the April release in June, and update to the October release in December)
[23:38] <Dreki> im useing a laptop with an intell atom processor is there app that monitors/controls the CPU clocking and works with ubuntu 10.10?
[23:38] <_16BitSubsystem_> Glowball: thank you
[23:38] <btQuark> obviously it is
[23:39] <btQuark> i'll go back to windows then, n wlan is needed
[23:39] <_16BitSubsystem_> i dont like windows
[23:39] <bastidrazor> !info cpufrequtils | Dreki
[23:40] <CeilingKitten> btquark have you tried ndiswrapper to install using the windows driver?
[23:40] <btQuark> no, i thought those days were over?
[23:40] <nit-wit> _16BitSubsystem_,  who does that is at all a real geek
[23:41] <Dreki> bastidrazor thanks
[23:41] <_16BitSubsystem_> nit-wit: doing what?
[23:41] <_16BitSubsystem_> exactly?
[23:41] <Glowball> Liking Windows, he means ;)
[23:41] <_16BitSubsystem_> lol lol
[23:41] <_16BitSubsystem_> oh
[23:41] <_16BitSubsystem_> got it
[23:42] <nit-wit> I like it for helping the poor souls who are stuck with it for whatever reasons, to much work to lock it down and have a safe OS
[23:43] <_16BitSubsystem_> nit-wit: me too
[23:43] <_16BitSubsystem_> it's a great community
[23:44] <nit-wit> _16BitSubsystem_, W7 is not bas though in general it just is a huge target for  nasty-ware
[23:44] <btQuark> Glowball actually i rather meant klugdy unsupported tinkering for standard features
[23:44] <nit-wit> bad"
[23:44] <_16BitSubsystem_> true
[23:44] <_16BitSubsystem_> Are Jimmy Wales out of bussiness?
[23:44] <Glowball> btQuark: he asked what nit-wit meant
[23:44] <CeilingKitten> I cant touch any windows thats not xp =\
[23:45] <nit-wit> CeilingKitten, why?
[23:45] <mrcheesete0> how about Computer Games?  all my games have the suggested settings for Windows, or some have Windows & Mac, but none mention Linux
[23:45] <btQuark> i use everything i have to, anyhow theres a preference for unix, and since steve currently puts me off a little with his bad hardware offerings and too much of itunes coupled with too little of unix, i thought i'll try ubuntu again
[23:46] <CeilingKitten> I run Win XP Corporate/Embedded Hybrid, and everything runs in a sandbox.  =]
[23:46] <nit-wit> mrcheesete0, As i said those stuck with it
[23:46] <btQuark> one cant live without windows can one
[23:46] <CeilingKitten> 17 seconds from power button to desktop, and 6 seconds from shutdown to complete power off, really good for a windows xp machine on 256,b of ram
[23:46] <_16BitSubsystem_> CeilingKitten: do you mean sandbox of cryengine?
[23:47] <mrcheesete0> nit wit
[23:47] <mrcheesete0> what do you mean?
[23:47] <nit-wit> CeilingKitten, Xp does run fast that is for sure sanboxing is a good idea is it comodo
[23:47] <CeilingKitten> no @_16BitSubsystem_ (Sandboxie.com)
[23:47] <btQuark> i wonder what ubuntu thinks about openstep - now that they seem to be fast on the way to reproducing its looks
[23:47] <btQuark> without the ideas..
[23:47] <zetheroo> can remote desktop in Ubuntu connect to Windowz machines
[23:47] <_16BitSubsystem_> CeilingKitten: ok
[23:47] <CeilingKitten> nah, i <3 sandboxie, been using it before sandboxing became a windows practice.
[23:48] <r007> zetheroo yes use terminal server client
[23:48] <CeilingKitten> linux has has chroot/jail sandboxes forever though lol, windows is always so far behind =]
[23:48] <CeilingKitten> has had*
[23:48] <btQuark> anyhow windows xp with virtualbox is really nasty fast, especially if used with virtualbox suspend/resume
[23:48] <btQuark> as if chroot would be any form of security
[23:48] <nit-wit> CeilingKitten, I'm not real familiar with doing that I have only seen the option in Comodo, hey it works for you use it I say;)
[23:49] <zetheroo> r007: so not through the gui?
[23:49] <r007> zetheroo yes it uses a gui
[23:49] <btQuark> i like ubuntu for init=/bin/bash anyway - to completely root&reset a system with windows you usually need to step to bigger loops
[23:49] <nit-wit> see you all nobody needs help here
[23:50] <r007> zetheroo should be under internet
[23:50] <zetheroo> r007: Remote Desktop Viewer?
[23:50] <DMJC> ok, so a few weeks ago I upgraded my gcc to 4.5
[23:50] <CeilingKitten> btQuark, you want real speed, use Minlogon from XP Embedded, it strips out almost everything in winlogon, no user accounts, runs as system, combined with write filter driver for flashcards, or horm (hibernate once reboot many).
[23:50] <r007> zetheroo that will work too
[23:50] <DMJC> I still have 4.4 installed, and I need to reset 4.4 as the default compiler
[23:50] <shmup> anyone here run two monitors and actually get flash able to stay full screened in one?
[23:50] <shmup> it's easy to do in windows, but i'm sure it's been done in linux
[23:50] <soulzie> hmm, I installed the maverick server, installed openbox, and some things.. not sure when it appeared, but must of been with the vmtools I think, , but i have a directory in my home dir called (null)
[23:50] <DMJC> anyone know howto set it so that 4.4 is always the default?
[23:50] <soulzie> erm.... obv. cant remove it as it gets a syntactical error... WTRF is that all abt?
[23:51] <soulzie> I use normal linux commands and all that.. any ideas anyone????
[23:51] <soulzie> dont say i gotta go on a different server distro immediately due to this sigh
[23:52] <zetheroo> r007: ok I found Terminal Server Client ...
[23:52] <DMJC> ok you've got some weird folder called null
[23:52] <DMJC> how's that affecting things?
[23:52] <Flannel> soulzie: The directory is called "(null)"?  Try tab-completing to delete it, that'll automatically escape things
[23:53] <n2diy> do I have to start samba after installing it with synaptic?
[23:54] <wcchandler> What is the best partitioning/file formats for use with a solid state drive?
[23:55] <DMJC> sweet
[23:55] <DMJC> problemo solved
[23:55] <zetheroo> r007: RDV has SSH and VNC .... I tried with SSH but no luck finding the machine on the domain
[23:56] <r007> zetheroo you want rdp or rdpv5
[23:56] <r007> zetheroo ssh is unlikely to be running on a windows box
[23:56] <zetheroo> r007: oh ok ... so RDV ain't going to do it ... Terminal Server Client has those protocols though
[23:58] <Very_Cool> Samba issue with read speed.  winxp can write to samba server at 55mb/s...but can only read at 25mb/s.  Ive been messing with buffers, tcp_nodelay, hard drive read aheads etc...   any ideas?
[23:58] <technikfreak> hey r007 i have tunneld the 3389 rdp protocol behind the 22 via my ssh server (low cost vpn varaint)
[23:58] <Teth> I can't find the Xorg.conf file
[23:58] <Teth> and i'm running the most recent version of ubuntu
[23:58] <Teth> can anyone help me?
[23:59] <technikfreak> /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[23:59] <Very_Cool> Teth: find / | grep Xorg.conf
[23:59] <technikfreak> here you go
[23:59] <r007> technikfreak yeah you can tunnel but zetheroo asked how to connect to rdp
[23:59] <technikfreak> but please be carefull
[23:59] <Teth> Very_Cool: the fucked up thing is that I already did that :(
[23:59] <Gnea> find /etc/X11/ -name "Xorg.conf"    who uses grep?
