[00:00] <blackshirt> airtonix: i think you need reconfigure xorg.conf by hand
[00:00] <guampa> it should report "open"
[00:00] <kismet> airtonix, guampa thx I'll try those
[00:00] <airtonix> kismet, to allow incoming on port 9160 you need to use this : sudo ufw allow in on eth0 to any port 9160
[00:00] <airtonix> kismet, assuming the interface is eth0
[00:01] <airtonix> jigarnilam, what kind of nvidia gpu do you have ?
[00:01] <Nadav> what is the ip ad command do?
[00:01] <Nadav> requests a new ip from the dhcp server? like ipconfig /renew
[00:01] <Nadav> ?
[00:01] <airtonix> Nadav, man ip ad
[00:01] <kismet> airtonix, sudo ufw status gives me inactive
[00:01] <airtonix> (read it)
[00:01] <airtonix> kismet, keep reading the rest of what i typed
[00:02] <guampa> Nadav: you mean dhclient <interface> ?
[00:02] <kismet> airtonix, thanks
[00:02] <Nadav> no, I mean ip ad
[00:02] <betamine> kismet: try 'nmap 127.0.0.1' to check if port is open
[00:02] <kismet> betamine, on the same machine
[00:03] <Amacidia> blackshirt: nope, will do that right now
[00:03] <betamine> kismet: 127.0.0.1 is the loopback address

[00:06] <zetheroo> last couple days I am having issues connecting to certain pages in Ubuntu ... Windows works fine ... I think Java is the culprit ....
[00:07] <Docfxit> Hi everyone,
[00:07] <betamine> kismet: What programme are you using to connect?
[00:07] <xangua> and do you have any ubuntu support related question¿ fatharrahman1 , if english is not your native language you can try other channel
[00:07] <zetheroo> I went to the Java test page and it said that I don't have the latest update ... could this be why?
[00:07] <kismet> it is a java client & in terminal a cassandra-cli
[00:07] <Docfxit> I have a folder that is shared in Ubuntu
[00:08] <blackshirt> xangua: a lot of people here not natively speak in english.. i think it was not a problem
[00:08] <xangua> zetheroo: are you using the latest ubuntu version¿
[00:08] <zetheroo> xangua: yep
[00:08] <zetheroo> xangua: fully updated too
[00:08] <zetheroo> xangua: this just started 2 days ago
[00:09] <xangua> and did you install java or open jdk¿
[00:09] <zetheroo> xangua: Java
[00:09] <xangua> zetheroo: then you will have to wait until latest version is aviable in repositories
[00:09] <fatharrahman1> hello

[00:14] <rockingwing> heya
[00:14] <rockingwing> somebody here who could help me with installing java?
[00:14] <bazhang> eroby, the cd from shipit?
[00:14] <airtonix> kismet, obviously
[00:14] <bazhang> rockingwing, enable partner repo
[00:14] <airtonix> kismet, you need to open ports
[00:14]  * Skapare looks around
[00:15] <bazhang> !partner | rockingwing
[00:15] <airtonix> kismet, was that not obvious?
[00:15] <eroby> @bazhang wht?
[00:15] <bazhang> eroby, you want a cd shipped to you?
[00:15] <airtonix> kismet, sudo ufw allow in on eth0 to any port 22
[00:15] <kismet> airtonix, uhm after a sec of thinking yes... ;) do u know the port for ssh
[00:15] <Vrejdac> ?join #ubuntu-fr
[00:15] <studentz> Could I have the same problem.
[00:15] <bazhang> !java > rockingwing
[00:15] <betamine> kismet: 22
[00:16] <eroby> for java
[00:16] <raskol> Every time I reboot I have to run xinput to turn off emulate3buttons. Way back in the day you could edit xorg.conf, what's currently the way to save this and similar settings?
[00:16] <bazhang> eroby, a cd for java?
[00:16] <paper> im a nube looking for help but first of all hello
[00:16] <kismet> betamine, thx
[00:16] <eroby> no for Ubuntu 10.10
[00:16] <iamis> what flush-8:0 how to remove it from cpu usage
[00:16] <Skapare> 22 is the default for ssh ... but you'd best change that to something obscure if you want to open it to the whole internet
[00:17] <bazhang> eroby, you can download it from www.ubuntu.com , or ask shipit to send you a cd
[00:17] <eroby> shipit??
[00:17] <bazhang> !shipit > eroby
[00:17] <studentz> Please Help ..... I cannot get  access neither into gnome or xterm. My passw is right.
[00:17] <betamine> kismet: see if the the server software is listening on port: sudo 'lsof -i:$PORT'
[00:18] <paper> what do i do with a .tar.gz file once downloaded?
[00:18] <Pici> Skapare: No need really. I highly suggest installing fail2ban with ssh, as it will ban any host that fails to authenticate a set number of times.  And it works as soon as you install, no extra config needed
[00:18] <betamine> correction: sudo -i:$PORT
[00:18] <eroby> 10k you
[00:18] <bazhang> paper, a tar.gz of what
[00:18] <betamine> correction1: sudo lsof -i:$PORT :)
[00:18] <paper> anything i dont know how to install
[00:18] <elvirolo> hi
[00:19] <kismet> betamine, sudo lsof -i:$9160 gives me noo output
[00:19] <FrozenFire[work]> intrader, Have you tried removing the fstab entry? The filesystem should automatically be detected and mounted. Perhaps it's some of the settings in fstab, such as the *mask options, may be mucking about with your permissions.
[00:19] <elvirolo> I'd like to report a bug but I don't know which package it's coming from, how do i do that ?
[00:19] <betamine> remove dollar sign
[00:19] <bazhang> paper, use the package manager to install, not tar.gz from the internet
[00:19] <kismet> jsvc    719 root   39u  IPv6   4512      0t0  TCP localhost:9160 (LISTEN)
[00:19] <paper> is the a way or something i could read?
[00:20] <betamine> kismet: and jsvc is the name of the app?
[00:20] <bazhang> paper, sure, but it would be helpful if you explained what package you wished to install first.
[00:20] <FrozenFire[work]> intrader, Beyond that, I can't fathom what the problem would be.
[00:20] <paper> its a cgi proxy
[00:20] <thunkee> paper: tar tvzf <file>
[00:20] <kismet> betamine, could be... it is a java application so i guess it stands for java server bla bla
[00:21] <kismet> betamine, it is cassandra (a database application)
[00:21] <elvirolo> help anyone?
[00:22] <betamine> kismet: If I had to guess I'd say the problem is in your cassandra configuration
[00:22] <studentz> Help me I cannot get access neither gnome nor xterm ?
[00:22] <Pici> elvirolo: Tell us what the bug is, maybe we can suggest the package na,e.
[00:22] <Krunal> both kubuntu and ubuntu are the same as far as OS goes correct? Just the GUI is different..KDE vs GNOME? does all software install the same? drivers etc..
[00:23] <kismet> betamine,  Ok I'll have a check.. the funny part is if i am on the same machine i can connect to it... but over the network it doesn't work
[00:23] <Markive> Hi Helpers, is it posible to run kde in ubuntu or is it gnome all the way?
[00:23] <_jesse_> Markive: you can run kde
[00:23] <bazhang> Markive, just install kubuntu-desktop
[00:23] <kismet> betamine, cassandra-cli -host 192.168.56.102 -port 9160
[00:23] <bazhang> Krunal, different apps but same under neath
[00:23] <Markive> will I get  some kind of choice or log in menu to pick which gui?
[00:23] <kismet> betamine,  does not work but cassandra-cli -host localhost -port 9160 does from the same machine
[00:23] <bazhang> Markive, yes
[00:23] <_jesse_> Markive: yeah at the login screen you'll choose which session to use
[00:24] <betamine> kismet: check if your router
[00:24] <_jesse_> it's along the bottom
[00:24] <bazhang> Markive, lubuntu-desktop edubuntu-desktop, xubuntu-desktop as well
[00:24] <Markive> _jesse_ and bazhang thankyou very much , merry christmas
[00:24] <elvirolo> Pici, well actually, some applets (namely gnome-power-manager and nm-applet) and programs (skype) don't launch themselves at startup, although their names are check in the system -> preferences -> start up apps dialog
[00:24] <kismet> betamine, i can connect to each machine via ssh... and from each machine to the other one vie ssh and ping works between those machines as welll
[00:25] <Krunal> bazhang, the reason why i ask because i installed ubuntu 10.10 and it picked up my wirelesss NIC, kubuntu did not
[00:26] <Skapare> anyone know how/where to configure X to disregard mouse wheel rolling, while still leaving the middle button (in the wheel) working?
[00:27] <Skapare> even better if it can be configured to do this only in terminal windows
[00:27] <Irreducibilis> So today I had to fix my wubi-installed 10.04 installation, because an update broke grub. And this led me to realize that it's probably time to migrate to a full dual-boot install.
[00:28] <wowaname> Question: I have .fr-FA3QBx, .fr-ILEeDq, and .fr-M21DNz directories in /Pictures... Are these necessary?
[00:28] <Irreducibilis> My question is, what is the best way to go about doing this? I understand that 10.04 cannot be converted to a full install on its own, so I am mostly concerned with this: What "can" be backed up, and what is the safest way to resize my windows partition such that I don't lose anything?
[00:29] <frobicat> hm
[00:29] <betamine> kismet: are the other computers windows or linux btw
[00:29] <fatharrahman1> hello
[00:29] <Dr_Willis> Irreducibilis:  if you use a live cd with the right tools. and a usb hard drive. you could image the whole HD to a usb hd. :) but that  may need a rather big usbhd
[00:30] <elvirolo> I'm sorry to insist, but I reinstalled maverick from scratch, and I'm still experiencin the same bug
[00:31] <Irreducibilis> I have such a thing on hand.
[00:31] <Markive> _jesse_ is the package i'm looking for is kde called "kde-full" ?
[00:31] <wowaname> Did anyone hear my question?
[00:32] <wowaname> or is everyone busy
[00:32] <wowaname> i'll wait :P
[00:32] <Irreducibilis> wowaname, I honestly... I dont think its really needed
[00:32] <wowaname> ok
[00:32] <betamine> kismet: a hacky workaround is to use an ssh tunnel
[00:32] <Irreducibilis> But someone else should answer
[00:32] <Irreducibilis> I'm not extremely linux-skilled.
[00:32] <wowaname> for some reason all they contain is my tree all over again
[00:32] <wowaname> full sized
[00:32] <wowaname> actually, just /documents/....
[00:32] <_jesse_> Markive: nah, do kubuntu-desktop
[00:33] <elijah> Is there a way I can double click a .dmg file and have it mount?
[00:33] <wowaname> Lol dmg
[00:33] <_jesse_> hehe
[00:33] <wowaname> isn't that mac?
[00:33] <Irreducibilis> If its nothing but empty folders, then feel free to remove.
[00:33] <wowaname> It's not empty folders... it's ...
[00:33] <Irreducibilis> Configuration files of some kind, I'd keep it
[00:33] <wowaname> hold on
[00:34] <wowaname> /home/wowaname/Pictures/.fr-ILEeDq/My Documents/My Pictures
[00:34] <wowaname> and then
[00:34] <wowaname> it has my pictures
[00:34] <Markive> _jesse_  is it the "Kubuntu Plasma Desktop system"?
[00:34] <studentz> Heeeeeelp  I cannot get access  neither gnome nor xterm  Please  Hel
[00:34] <wowaname> it's probably from windows for some reason
[00:34] <_jesse_> elijah: dmg's are 'image' files in OSX, you can use dmg2img to convert
[00:34] <Irreducibilis> wowaname, I'd keep it there, just to be sure
[00:35] <wowaname> i could rename it and see what happens
[00:35] <_jesse_> Markive: haha I dunno what it's title is, let's see
[00:35] <wowaname> like add a _ at the end
[00:35] <elijah> _jesse_: Does that make another file?
[00:35] <Irreducibilis> What happens to be the best way to resize my windows partition without causing Windows 7 to become unbootable?
[00:35] <_jesse_> Markive: yeah that's it
[00:35] <_jesse_> elijah: yeah
[00:36] <Irreducibilis> So I can migrate from wubi to a full dual boot
[00:36] <Markive> _jesse_ thanks very much for your time 10/10 for the help ;)
[00:36] <Dr_Willis> Irreducibilis:  windows 7 can resize its own partitions.
[00:36] <Irreducibilis> safely?
[00:37] <Dr_Willis> Irreducibilis:  I  find windoes is faster at ressizeing ntfs then linux is.
[00:37] <ringo> need help installing ubuntu on my macbook
[00:37] <mota> partition resizing *always* has an element of danger; always have a backup
[00:37] <Dr_Willis> Irreducibilis:  power failure durin resize = bad. :) be sure to have backups.
[00:37] <ringo> cant figure out how to change the iso file to an img
[00:37] <Irreducibilis> I'll do that then. And I won't lose my Installation then?
[00:37] <Dr_Willis> ringo:  why do you need to do that?
[00:37] <Irreducibilis> It's a laptop, so if the power fails, it will revert to battery. shouldn't be a problem
[00:38] <darkfx559> I need help downloading uBuntu Linux 10.10 Netbook version
[00:38] <Irreducibilis> Thanks.
[00:38] <darkfx559> It's not downloading all the way and I am looking for a mirror
[00:38] <Dr_Willis> darkfx559:  theres always the torrents.
[00:38] <Irreducibilis> And after that, its simply a matter of installing?
[00:38] <darkfx559> Can you redirect me to a torrent please?
[00:38] <Dr_Willis> Irreducibilis:  i resize the windows partitions. leave part of the HD unallocated.. tell installer to use unallocated space normally
[00:38] <Dr_Willis> !download
[00:39] <Dr_Willis> !torrents
[00:39] <_jesse_> Dr_Willis: I think he wants the 'netbook' edition one
[00:39] <_jesse_> ah I see it
[00:39] <Irreducibilis> Thanks. Now can you tell me what is appropreate to back up from the wubi install, to migrate over?
[00:39] <Irreducibilis> Is my home folder enough, or is there anything else
[00:41] <darkfx559> I need the Netbook version of uBuntu though
[00:41] <_jesse_> darkfx559: http://torrent.ubuntu.com/ubuntu-netbook/ports/releases/maverick/release/netbook/ubuntu-netbook-10.10-netbook-armel+dove.img.torrent
[00:41] <darkfx559> Thank you :)
[00:41] <Irreducibilis> darkfx559, they can be switched between as well
[00:42] <darkfx559> Also, on my other netbook, ubuntu isnt recognizing a wireless connection?
[00:43] <Irreducibilis> darkfx559, Is networking disabled? I once had that problem.
[00:43] <wowaname> darkfx559» i had trouble with that... hold on i'll give you a link
[00:43] <wowaname> also
[00:43] <wowaname> what is your card make
[00:43] <darkfx559> everything is enabled
[00:43] <wowaname> mine's broadcom... if you dont have that i may not be able to help :/
[00:43] <wowaname> i'd say
[00:43] <wowaname> just google around till you find something that may work
[00:43] <wowaname> try it
[00:43] <wowaname> it most likely will work
[00:43] <darkfx559> I have
[00:43] <FloodBot1> wowaname: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
[00:43] <darkfx559> nothing I have found has worked
[00:44] <wowaname> FloodBot1» oh wow

[00:50] <Adiman423> hi everyone
[00:50] <wowaname> hi Adiman423
[00:50] <ad_> a question: is there a version for the netbook ubuntu to install it in win?
[00:50] <Adiman423> I want to configure PHPMyadmin with Mysql on ubuntu 10.04
[00:51] <c2tha_d>  my display is just a bit too large to fit on my monitor, any help?
[00:51] <Adiman423> I have configured PHP with mysql and apache with php
[00:51] <wowaname> PHPmyadmin
[00:51] <wowaname> oh sorry
[00:51] <FrozenFire[work]> Adiman423, I strongly suggest not using PMA.
[00:51] <wowaname> ^
[00:51] <brophat> can i start the gui from command line/
[00:51] <Adiman423> ok
[00:52] <ad_> is there a wubi version of the netbook ubuntu? :)
[00:52] <ringo> can i install ubuntu 10.10 on a third generation macbook?
[00:52] <FrozenFire[work]> Adiman423, If you need a GUI tool for administrating your database, there is the mysql-admin package.
[00:52] <ringo> i have the most recent version of OSX 10.6.5
[00:52] <Adiman423> ringo, you could do it but you would need virtualbox
[00:52] <Adiman423> right
[00:52] <ringo> what is virtualbox?
[00:53] <Adiman423> Frozenfire: would I then download mysql-admin package from synaptic package manager?
[00:53] <russjr08> ringo: It lets you run an OS on top of your current one
[00:53] <FrozenFire[work]> Adiman423, or Ubuntu Software Centre
[00:53] <Adiman423> exright
[00:54] <vgr> brophat try sudo service gdm start
[00:54] <ringo> russjr08. ok cool. im burning the software onto a CD right now and then im going to TRY the software by booting it from the CD like it says on the website. will that work
[00:55] <russjr08> ringo: What software are you burning? Ubuntu or Virtualbox?
[00:55] <Adiman423> frozenfire, trying that now
[00:55] <ad_> ey, I thought my question to be very simple,  pls may  someone answer?
[00:55] <russjr08> ringo: with virtualbox you don't need to burn the image to a cd
[00:56] <ad_> if there' sa wubi ver of netbook ub.
[00:56] <xangua> ad_: never used wubi, check it's website; also i believe wubi already comes in the ubuntu iso
[00:56] <brophat> vgr i did a startx and it booted wtf?
[00:56] <ad_> k, thx
[00:56] <brophat> it only asked me to keyring password
[00:56] <ringo> russjr08: ubuntu 10.10. i was just following the instructions on ubuntu's website http://www.ubuntu.com/netbook/get-ubuntu/download
[00:56] <brophat> and it worked
[00:56] <c2tha_d>  my display is just a bit too large to fit on my monitor, any help?
[00:56] <brophat> crazy
[00:57] <brophat> vgr you think the problem is it is not dealing withthe keyring when I boot straight into the gui?
[00:57] <russjr08> ringo: You know you don't need to burn the CD if you are going to run Ubuntu in Virtualbox, it can use the .iso file directly
[00:57] <Adiman423> frozenfire: I have good news
[00:57] <intrader> Anyone, here is a http://paste.ubuntu.com/536885/. Hopefully it is clear. It is a major problem for FAT volumes since Nov. 10th on maverick
[00:58] <ringo> russjr08: ok how do i run ubuntu in virtualbox? r there instructions? lol im new to this
[00:58] <russjr08> ringo: Hold on, I will go find some real quick
[00:58] <Adiman423> ringo, you can use youtube
[00:58] <studentz> Help me I'm stucked in login screen I cannot get access neither gnome or xtem.
[00:59] <ringo> russjr08:thanks
[00:59] <vgr> brophat I'm not really sure, I just learned to boot the x-server from the command line after I got the new kernel, and my nvidia driver didn't update along with it.

[01:00] <Paulo39> i'm using virtual box
[01:00] <intrader> tripelb, try `cat file | sort` see what you get
[01:00] <brophat> ok vgr thanks well my puter is up now i just gotta boot safe mode then startx then put in keyring password bwahahahha
[01:00] <obengdako> Paulo39,  got a solution for you

[01:01] <ringo> russjr08: sweet thanks. ill let you know if i need anymore help
[01:01] <vgr> brophat hope you don't have to reboot too often :)
[01:01] <Paulo39> Frozenball, i already asked there, but nobody answers me
[01:02] <obengdako> Paulo39,  i recently increased the size of my virtual windows xp service pack 3 from 5 GB to 20GB
[01:02] <obengdako> but i don't know if my method is the best yet
[01:02] <Pupazzetto> hi :) it's my third minimal install of maverick and i can't login as root, because the password it's incorrect... sorry my noobness :| am i doing something wrong?
[01:02] <russjr08> ringo: No problem! I hope you enjoy it :)
[01:02] <drag> ok somebody know to install a logitech webcam fusion in backtrack 4 ???
[01:02] <studentz> Help me I'm stuck in the login screen I cannot get access neither gnome nor xterm Please somebody help me
[01:02] <FrozenFire[work]> Paulo39, Patience. In any case, it's not a Ubuntu support question.
[01:03] <brophat> vgr yeah dunno even when i booted that way web browser was having prob loading pages
[01:03] <intrader> studentz, are at the login dialog?
[01:03] <tripelb> I want to sort alphabetically. it's a gedit file. can I do this? --- Ubuntu 10.04 -- is this an easy thing to do?
[01:03] <obengdako> simple i dd the disk then made a new virtual disk and imaged to that when it was complete i expanded the size of the partition Paulo39
[01:03] <studentz> intrader yep
[01:03] <sacarlson> Pupazzetto: there is no root password.  just login to the user created at install and sudo what you need
[01:03] <intrader> studentz, did you forget your password?
[01:03] <tripelb> intrader, oh I didnt see
[01:03] <Markive> _jesse_ hi again, i've installed kubuntu desktop, when my machine passes grub I can see it says kubuntu but when it boots i'm in gnome, I didn't get an option when I logged in.. any ideas?
[01:04] <FrozenFire[work]> Pupazzetto, It is recommended that you never login as root. Most things should be done using sudo.
[01:04] <rww> tripelb: Or within gedit: Edit > Preferences > Plugins -> Enable "Sort". Edit > Sort.
[01:04] <Pupazzetto> i agree, the fact is that i'm not in the sudoers list :|
[01:04] <studentz> intrader No my password is OK. When I change to a wrong password I tell me wrong password
[01:04] <Adiman423> sorry folks, I would love to stay around, but I have to go to bet
[01:04] <Adiman423> sorry folks, I would love to stay around, but I have to go to bed
[01:05] <_jesse_> Markive: it'll be at the login screen, where you type in your password
[01:05] <Markive> ooer it looks like i'm in gnome but there are new apps in the app button
[01:05] <brophat> is there a better way to start the gui from command line other than startx?
[01:05] <FrozenFire[work]> Pupazzetto, You can login as root via the recovery console available in the GRUB boot list.
[01:05] <Markive> if I can see K3B am I in kde?
[01:05] <sacarlson> Pupazzetto: there must be a user you know that is?  if not you will have to boot with a live boot cd and modify the sudoer list
[01:05] <FrozenFire[work]> Be careful, though.
[01:05] <_jesse_> Markive: I honestly don't run KDE so I couldn't tell you for sure
[01:05] <Pupazzetto> uhm ok
[01:05] <FrozenFire[work]> sacarlson, a Live CD is not needed.
[01:05] <intrader> studentz, sorry, try again to ask the question. I don't know how to help you further. Do you select gnome?
[01:06] <wumao101> can anyone suggest best practice for configuring sudoer list?
[01:06] <Markive> _jesse_ thanks for all you help
[01:06] <jolaren> I want to start a program upon startup but I don't know how to.. how do I do this+?
[01:06] <sacarlson> FrozenFire[work]: your right Pupazzetto, you don't have to boot with live cd just single user boot
[01:06] <Pupazzetto> no, it's a minimal install from a usb key :)
[01:06] <quant> jolaren, system - preferences - startup applications
[01:07] <studentz> intrader I do not forget my password.  I try to login to gnome and xterm with the same result
[01:07] <Pupazzetto> i'm trying to get a xbmc+ubuntu :)
[01:07] <alket> hi has anyone managed to use PC internet connection to Mobile phone  ?
[01:07] <FrozenFire[work]> Pupazzetto, All Linux systems should have a recovery console available.
[01:07] <FrozenFire[work]> Minimal or not.
[01:07] <Uberpwn> I'm having troubles with an HP printer, can anyone assist me
[01:07] <quant> alket, pc internet connection to mobile phone?
[01:07] <sacarlson> Pupazzetto: there still must be a way to boot single user with usb key boot.
[01:07] <intrader> studentz, I'd use a bootable CD and look at your .profile file in your /home see what you got.
[01:08] <alket> yes quant , this guy said he did but i don't understand it well http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1589159
[01:08] <Paulo39> obengdako, i didn't understant well the procedure. now i have the windows 7 installed in a 20Gb virtual disk. what do i have to do now really?
[01:08] <studentz> let me do it. What I'm looking for en .profile?
[01:09] <FrozenFire[work]> Paulo39, It's not really possible, so far as I know, to grow a VDI.
[01:09] <FrozenFire[work]> Except to create a new, larger disk, and then copy the data over.
[01:09] <intrader> studentz, execute line by line, and see what is blowing up.
[01:09] <FrozenFire[work]> Then use something like ntfsresize.
[01:10] <intrader> studentz, trye asking again as I am perhaps misleading you to waste your time.
[01:11] <intrader> studentz, I would ask help to look at logs
[01:11] <Pupazzetto> i should be able to sudo gainroot right?
[01:11] <Pupazzetto> knowing the password of the root account?
[01:12] <FrozenFire[work]> Pupazzetto, Just run su
[01:12] <newhcj> xaunga: i did read the instruction but i got stuck at the last part.... so now i dont know wut to do....
[01:12] <FrozenFire[work]> But, by default, the root password is randomized.
[01:12] <Pupazzetto> auth failure
[01:12] <Pupazzetto> i need to su :|
[01:12] <tripelb> intrader, thanks. that worked wll thanks to my "decades old" experience in a shell. Would be nice in the guil  (I sorted a file of camera offerings at best buy.  thus by brand by model which is by price !
[01:12] <quant> Pupazzetto, why?
[01:12] <Pupazzetto> i didn't have this problem with karmic release tho...
[01:13] <Pupazzetto> because it's a minimal install and i want to bring an xbmc on it :|
[01:13] <intrader> tripelb, good
[01:13] <Pupazzetto> i want to make a mediacenter out of it :|
[01:13] <tripelb> rww - Isee that now and put it in my notes
[01:13] <StrangeCharm> is it possible to integrate the passwords and encryption keys application with firefox's password system?
[01:14] <sacarlson> Pupazzetto: do you know how to boot as single user?
[01:14] <Uberpwn> nobody can help me with a printer?
[01:14] <Krunal> okay so i have the new Dell xps 15. (im on my 2nd fresh install of ubuntu 10.10). I installed the additional Nvidia drivers through ubuntu > and after a reboot I got a black screen with text $
[01:14] <FrozenFire[work]> StrangeCharm, That's something I've struggled with for some time.
[01:14] <Pupazzetto> unfortunately not, my entire IT knowledge is based on win :D
[01:14] <intrader> tripelb, make your own shell file to do exactly what you need!
[01:14] <Pupazzetto> oh and dos
[01:15] <FrozenFire[work]> StrangeCharm, I thought about creating a keyring and then making a translation layer between the keyring and Firefox's password database.
[01:15] <FrozenFire[work]> StrangeCharm, But, as it is, there's no apparent way.
[01:15] <newhcj> im starting to get the hang of this linux stuff... after months of trying... thanks to this chat...
[01:16] <StrangeCharm> FrozenFire[work], have you opened a bug on P&EK ?
[01:16] <[biabia]> whats the command to show what distro i am using?
[01:16] <quant> [biabia], uname -a
[01:17] <intrader> FrozenFire[work], I have gotten rid of the fstab entry as it complicated matters setting all files to rwxrwxrwx. Now the context menu Properties->Permissions->Execute  toggles the checkbox, but then resets it back.
[01:17] <[biabia]> hm it doesnt show like 10.04.1 lts
[01:18] <sacarlson> Pupazzetto: well this might get you started http://www.debuntu.org/recover-root-password-single-user-mode-and-grub
[01:18] <Pupazzetto> i'll look at it right now
[01:19] <Pupazzetto> but it's always like this with a fresh install?
[01:19] <Uberpwn> SOMEONE PLEASE IM ME OR SREPOND TO MY MESSAGES
[01:19] <songer> Uberpwn: no escribas todo en mayusculas, va contra las normas. La proxima vez seras expulsado.
[01:21] <ogitux> !ping
[01:21] <ogitux> ~ping
[01:22] <Krunal> okay so i have the new Dell xps 15. (im on my 2nd fresh install of ubuntu 10.10). I installed the additional Nvidia drivers through ubuntu > and after a reboot I got a black screen with text $. Should I trust these drivers?
[01:22] <quant> peng
[01:22] <Shorty> ok so anyone wanna give me some more suggestions on how to get ubuntu 10.10 working correctly on my laptop
[01:22] <tonsofpcs> Krunal: I guess not...
[01:22]  * Shorty is a total ubuntu n00b
[01:22] <zetheroo> ok ... so according to synaptic I have the latest Java installed ... but FF is obviously not seeing it that way
[01:22] <quant> Shorty, what's the problem?
[01:22] <ringo> russjr08: what hd storage type should i choose on vituralbox? Fixed-sized storage or dynamically expanding storage?
[01:22] <Shorty> everything installs fine but after grub my backlight wont come on
[01:23] <Shorty> so i cannot seen anything
[01:23] <Shorty> tried re installing 5 times
[01:23] <[biabia]> quant: how do i see which ubuntu release i am using
[01:23] <Shorty> including downloading during intallation all the updates
[01:23] <quant> Shorty, maybe incompatible laptop, not sure
[01:23] <intrader> Anyone, I have a problem with FAT usb sticks as described in  http://paste.ubuntu.com/536885/. Hopefully it is clear. It used to work in 9.04, 9.10, early 10.04 and early 10.10. Works fine in fedora, suse, and mandrake as well as on the mac
[01:23] <quant> [biabia], except for uname -a, not sure
[01:23] <guampa> ringo: depends on what you want, dinamically expanding storage reports a virtual size to the guest thats all
[01:23] <gnr>  hi, how can I, define a cell using another cell, while having text in the main cell? eg... This is a report from =B1 for =C1 user.
[01:24] <zetheroo> java.com says: Your Java version is Version 6 Update 20.  ... but in synaptic I have updated to 22
[01:24] <atxq> so I have a gamepad and want to use it as a mouse
[01:24] <quant> Shorty, try booting in that recovery mode perhaps
[01:24] <atxq> anyone know how to do this?
[01:24] <gnr>  hi, how can I use OOCalc, define a cell using another cell, while having text in the main cell? eg... This is a report from =B1 for =C1 user.
[01:24] <quant> gnr, this is ubuntu support channel
[01:25] <gnr> quant:i might be lucky
[01:25] <ringo> guampa: im totally new to this so idk what that means lol. just wanting to test out ubuntu 10.10 using virtual box so you let me know what will be best, fixed or dynamic
[01:25] <quant> ringo, any of those
[01:25] <Shorty> i tried recovery
[01:25] <Shorty> i tried root
[01:25] <Shorty> i tried all i could think
[01:25] <Shorty> lol
[01:26] <guampa> ringo: for small disks use fixed, dynamic for any size
[01:26] <kimeuton> ola a todos
[01:26] <quant> Shorty, sorry then :)
[01:26] <zetheroo> anyone with 10.10 using FF not able to access this page? : http://supportapj.dell.com/support/downloads/index.aspx?c=au&l=en&s=dhs
[01:26] <quant> zetheroo, works for me
[01:26] <ringo> guampa: ok i have 98 gb left on my disk so i guess ill just do the dynamic
[01:26] <guampa> ringo: fixed means if you want a 1Tb disk the file will be 1Tb on your real machine, dynamic disks grow as you fill them
[01:27] <Roasted_> is it possible to vnc into a livecd? my buddy is 600 miles away troubleshooting something, and he booted to an ubuntulivecd and forwarded the port on his router for vnc but I cant remote in. I was just curious if the livecd has a limitation or not.
[01:27] <zetheroo> quant: and can you see what this says: http://www.java.com/en/download/installed.jsp?detect=jre&try=1
[01:27] <tonsofpcs> Roasted_: it's probably blocked in the firewall on the livecd by default
[01:27] <tonsofpcs> he probably needs to open 5900 to all there
[01:27] <quant> zetheroo, indeed I can
[01:27] <Roasted_> I didnt know ubuntu had a firewall by default...
[01:28] <zetheroo> quant: thanks
[01:28] <quant> zetheroo, np
[01:29] <GiraffeFace> Hey, i'm just trying to boot into 10.10. I installed some updates last night and rebooted and when I came back ubuntu didn't recognize my usb keyboard/mouse. The bios does however. Furthermore, I tried putting the boot disc back in but I get to the screen where it asks if I want to try ubuntu or just install it and the mouse/keyboard also won't register. Any recomendations?
[01:29] <Roasted_> I didnt know ubuntu had a firewall by default... - tonsofpcs
[01:30] <zetheroo> quant: for my it says that I am using version 6 update 20
[01:31] <tripelb> intervade, its on my list to learn to do that. I'm looking for a sale camera right now.
[01:31] <studentz> intrader:  I'm in a rescue mode from live cd. I cd to /home but I cannot see any file or directory. When I installed I remember to chose encrypt my home directory.  How I can get access to .profile ?
[01:32] <fleshwormx> Thats so ho~7
[01:32] <fleshwormx> ~
[01:32] <quant> zetheroo, yes, same
[01:33] <zetheroo> quant: that's odd ... 'cause you probably also have update 22 installed in synaptic ...
[01:33] <quant> zetheroo, let me check again
[01:33] <quant> zetheroo, it's 22, you're right
[01:34] <zetheroo> quant: hmm
[01:34] <Roasted> Why can't I VNC into my buddy's PC who currently has a PC booted up to an Ubuntu LiveCD? He has all of the forwarding settings set right, etc.
[01:35] <MaximLevitsky> Roasted: your buddy uses what ubuntu version?
[01:35] <Roasted> 10.10
[01:35] <zetheroo> quant: but still oddly you can still access that page ... whereas I cannot
[01:35] <sacarlson> Roasted:  does he have the vnc set to active also?
[01:35] <Roasted> He's troubleshooting a pc from 600 miles away from me, and he's in a livecd on it truobleshooting something but I cant remote in
[01:35] <Roasted> what do you mean "set to active"
[01:35] <Roasted> he has it enabled, and the port forwarded
[01:35] <ringo> ahhhh trying to run ubuntu on virtual box and its not working. these are the directions im using:  http://www.wikihow.com/Install-Ubuntu-on-VirtualBox
[01:35] <sacarlson> Roasted: can you login with ssh?
[01:35] <Roasted> I see zero reason it's not working, when my laptop/desktop (both ubuntu) work using the saem instructions
[01:36] <Roasted> sacarlson, I have no idea?
[01:36] <Roasted> how do I try
[01:36] <MaximLevitsky> Roasted: than say thanks to some developers: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/vinagre/+bug/634571
[01:36] <ringo> it says no bootable meduim found! system halted
[01:36] <sacarlson> Roasted: try ssh into his system,  from there you can activate vnc if you really need it from the command prompt
[01:37] <GiraffeFace> Hey does anyone have an answer to this question?:
[01:37] <GiraffeFace> Hey, i'm just trying to boot into 10.10. I installed some updates last night and rebooted and when I came back ubuntu didn't recognize my usb keyboard/mouse. The bios does however. Furthermore, I tried putting the boot disc back in but I get to the screen where it asks if I want to try ubuntu or just install it and the mouse/keyboard also won't register. Any recomendations?
[01:37] <sacarlson> Roasted: oh ssh server is not installed at default for a live boot
[01:37] <Roasted> sacarlson, hes trying teamviewer at the moment.
[01:37] <Roasted> sacarlson, btw I'm not sure how this bug link matters - Im on 10.10 and it works perfectly.
[01:38] <Roasted> sacarlson, he's behind a smooth wall and all kinds of firewall stuff so I'm not sure if it's something on his end or not.
[01:38] <newhcj> this is a dumb question, but what do you do with WINE?
[01:38] <MaximLevitsky> newhcj: run windows applications
[01:38] <zetheroo> quant: btw ... did you open that dell link in FF?
[01:39] <Flannel> newhcj: WINE is used to run Windows programs in Ubuntu (or any Linux)
[01:39] <krunal_> how do i check what the current resolution im running ?
[01:39] <quant> zetheroo, yes
[01:39] <zetheroo> quant: ok ... because that link works fine for me in Chromium ... but not at all in FF
[01:39] <newhcj> Flannel: MaximLevitsky: like a program thats only for windows or a game or something?
[01:40] <MaximLevitsky> newhcj: yes, but bear in mind that wine usually don't work
[01:40] <zetheroo> quant: and this is testing on two machines both running fully updated 10.10
[01:40] <newhcj> oh
[01:40] <newhcj> :(
[01:40] <quant> newhcj, actually it usually works
[01:40] <Flannel> newhcj: Yeah, lots of programs written for Windows can be successfully run in Ubuntu via Wine
[01:40] <MrWhite1127> Ok perhaps here someone can help me.
[01:41] <tonsofpcs> Flannel: lots != all
[01:41] <MaximLevitsky> Folks, I tried running many windows programs in wine
[01:41] <newhcj> thanks guys... how would i use it
[01:41] <quant> newhcj, e.g. I play WoW with no problem with Wine
[01:41] <MrWhite1127> I went to the Fedora channel only to get bumrushed and not helped.
[01:41] <xangua> !wine | newhcj
[01:41] <Flannel> tonsofpcs: Right, I never claimed all.
[01:41] <MaximLevitsky> Some work, yeas, but its is very disappointing to see many not work
[01:41] <Ish_> hey guys if i install 10.04 on my 8.04 do i have to format my disk?
[01:41] <xangua> MrWhite1127: is your question about ubuntu¿
[01:42] <sacarlson> Roasted: I never seen this teamviewer  I just us the default preinstalled vnc,  why must you use that one?
[01:42] <Roasted> sacarlson, teamviewer is working
[01:42] <xangua> Ish_: you can upgrade from 8.04 to 10.04
[01:42] <sacarlson> Roasted: ok so what isn't working?
[01:42] <Roasted> sacarlson, teamviewer is nothing short of awesome. no need to forward ports, works across mac linux windows. its great.
[01:42] <Roasted> sacarlson, standard VNC built into Ubuntu wasnt working
[01:42] <Roasted> sacarlson, teamviewer works fine. he installed it on the livecd.
[01:42] <Roasted> sacarlson, Im not sure if its a livecd limitation or not, or if its a setup thing on his end with using a firewall, smoothwall, etc
[01:42] <tonsofpcs> Flannel: just making it clear
[01:43] <tonsofpcs> some people hear that and go "oh, i can use this app! yay!"
[01:43] <sacarlson> Roasted: I've used vnc across platforms also including windows even with a browser interface
[01:43] <tonsofpcs> and then try and fail hard
[01:43] <Roasted> sacarlson, that's great - I have too - but HERE on a livecd, VNC has failed. Teamviewer works great as we speak.
[01:43] <Roasted> sacarlson, not sure if its cause of the livecd or what.
[01:43] <sacarlson> Roasted: I asume your problem is you are atempting to control one remote software with another that is a different protocal
[01:43] <Roasted> sacarlson, even still
[01:44] <Roasted> vnc does not work when I expected it to
[01:44] <Roasted> teamviewer does
[01:44] <sacarlson> Roasted: well if teamviewer works than I would use that as your solution.  don't need more than one solution
[01:44] <Ish_> xangua, will the upgrade require me to format?
[01:44] <xangua> Ish_: no
[01:45] <xangua> !upgrade | Ish_
[01:45] <K350> Have they removed the fullscreen option in konsole in 10.10?
[01:45] <MrWhite1127> Ok. I have windows 7 ultimate on an Asus EEE PC 1005ha, the hard drive is bumped up to 320gigs and i have 2 gigs of ram, Intel Atom n270 at 1.6 ghz. My questions are, Would Kubuntu or Ubuntu be more responsive than Windows 7 Ultimate? and What Does ubuntu have to offer for Media playing and DVD authoring and encoding. I have used several linux distros before and im not really a linux newbie.
[01:45] <fleshwormx> jeje
[01:46] <MrWhite1127> I want something a little more advanced than Rythmbox or Totem
[01:46] <MrWhite1127> or YMMV
[01:46] <quant> MrWhite1127, advanced in what way?
[01:46] <anon33_> so, when i connect my android phone and put in USB mount enable, my /media/ folder doesn't autopopulate
[01:47] <MrWhite1127> More Feature rich without being cluttered.
[01:47] <anon33_> what command (from the terminal) would i have to issue to get it to recognize that my phone is connected?
[01:47] <quant> MrWhite1127, try banshee and go back to windows if you don't like any of those
[01:47] <rww> MrWhite1127: Banshee or Audacious, perhaps?
[01:47] <quant> MrWhite1127, also amarok
[01:48] <MrWhite1127> ive always gotten freeze ups with amarok.
[01:48] <K350> MrWhite1127: To be honest. Ubuntu is great. But there'll be some learning process and you'll have to deal quite a lot with it for some time. Then you'll propably miss your windows. But in the long run it's really worth it. Give youserlf at least  more then 6 months before you finaly make up your mind.
[01:48] <sacarlson> MrWhite1127: for one thing dvd authoring or video editing you might want more power than a 1.6ghz n270 but ubuntu has all that.  and it would be faster in normal operation than windows 7.  takes less hourse power to run normal stuf
[01:49] <MrWhite1127> well I ran Ubuntu NBR for about 8 months.
[01:50] <MrWhite1127> Well I havnt really had a problem with authoring before. Im not out for conversion speeds rather than quality.
[01:50] <John_Abbott> Umm, I need help
[01:51] <John_Abbott> Could anyone help?
[01:51] <MrWhite1127> Id rather my movie come out sharp with clear audio 2+ hours later than have a copy thats pixelated and fuzzy audio in 30 mins.
[01:51] <K350> John_Abbott: with what?
[01:51] <pitoow> John_Abbott what do you want?
[01:51] <MrWhite1127> And we need a question first man.
[01:51] <John_Abbott> I get an error message when starting ubuntu on my PC

[01:56] <MrWhite1127> Also winavi works decent if your out for speed. 850+mb .avi Converted to DVD structure with custom Menus and Okay picture and audio in about 30 mins.
[01:56] <john38> CrimsonIdol, you there
[01:57] <MrWhite1127> John38: yes. Buy a USB wifi stick.
[01:57] <anon33_> so, when i connect my android phone and put in USB mount enable, my /media/ folder doesn't autopopulate
[01:57] <anon33_> what command (from the terminal) would i have to issue to get it to recognize that my phone is connected?
[01:57] <quant> anon33_, autopopulate?
[01:57] <john38> MrWhite1127, no i mean wired connection with modem instead of ethernet from modem to pc i use usb cable
[01:57] <MrWhite1127> anon33_ : is debug mode/Testing Mode ticked in the phone?\
[01:58] <sacarlson> MrWhite1127: well that sothink apears to be just a flash video capture tool and ubuntu has that
[01:58] <MrWhite1127> No it works for everything. Its converting an avi as i type. lol Sothink DVD Maker
[01:59] <John_Abbott> Is there a support channel on the ubuntu server?

[01:59] <rww> raidghost: Watch your language, please.
[01:59] <MrWhite1127> I just use the free version and it works pretty decently.
[01:59] <raidghost> MrWhite1127: of cedega 7 ?

[02:00] <arcsky> how can i change this wierd thing with minimize/maximize on windows?
[02:00] <MrWhite1127> raidghost: eh?
[02:00] <anon33_> MrWhite1127: yes
[02:00] <quant> arcsky, what wierd thing?
[02:00] <rww> arcsky: which weird thing?
[02:00] <MrWhite1127> try turning that off and disconnect and reconnect
[02:01] <arcsky> close,minimize,maximize are on the left side
[02:01] <arcsky> which are very wierd

[02:01] <Zero_Burn> sudo ???
[02:02] <sacarlson> MrWhite1127: that looks cool,  closed thing we have to that is k3b  but I don't think it has as many codec suports as that sothink does
[02:02] <Zero_Burn> -r #ubuntu
[02:02] <Zero_Burn> What is the sudo
[02:02] <IdleOne> !sudo | Zero_Burn
[02:03] <MrWhite1127> anon33_ : Its used for logging purposes if you develop your own .apks or if you installed an app and its not functioning properly you can fire up the android SDK and connect the two and figure out whats not tickin right.
[02:04] <Zero_Burn> IdleOne> !<ubottu>thank much!!!
[02:04] <anon33_> MrWhite1127: simple question - if my device is rooted, shouldn't i have a drive that appears to mimic "system"? everything that pops up is either the sdcard, data, or internal storage

[02:05] <Ish_> hey guys im upgrading my 8.04 to 10.04 remotely on a server. Will it upgrade to the the appropriate server version?
[02:05] <arcsky> gconftool-2 --set "/apps/metacity/general/button_layout" --type string "menu:minimize,maximize,close"
[02:05] <arcsky> doesnt work
[02:06] <Matthew__> guys, i am trying to build am ampache directory and am running :  <- thats after : find . -type d -exec chmod 755 {} \; .. i guess its wrong ey ?
[02:06] <Matthew__> drwx------ 63 se42hw se42hw 16384 2010-11-27 01:52 House
[02:07] <guampa> lol
[02:08] <MrWhite1127> anon33_: No you shouldnt. IF you see those folders you mentioned then everything is correct. Rooting just consists of giving you /su privlages. Which allows you to modify the files. But They must be done Via the Bootloader and must be cooked into a custom rom.
[02:11] <anon33_> MrWhite1127: thanks
[02:13] <Ish_> hey guys is NX better or exceed?
[02:13] <New1> hi how do i update from the terminal ? (update manager)
[02:13] <sacarlson> Ish_: I've upgraded from 8.04 to 10.04 before but not remotely and had some problems with some of my php apps that I had custom installed.  something to do with no longer supported functions.
[02:14] <arcsky> is there a new security thing for join a wlan network ?
[02:14] <fleshwormx> jua jasss
[02:14] <Ish_> sacarlson, im crossing my fingers lol

[02:15] <Zero_Burn> The CD Installing linux Server 10.04 Is not bootting
[02:15] <creyato> Question: How do I change my netbook screen brightness in Ubuntu 10.10?
[02:15] <quant> creyato, try adding the applet in the gnome panel
[02:15] <sacarlson> Ish_: I kept the original boot so I could move back until I fixed the new stuf
[02:15] <Zero_Burn> The CD Installing linux Server 10.04 Is not bootting what is doing
[02:15] <quant> creyato, right click on the panel then add then choose the one for brightness etc.
[02:15] <fleshwormx> muahaha
[02:16] <Ish_> sacarlson, i have that option?
[02:16] <New1> and how do i choose to upgrate less than 5 MB ?
[02:16] <creyato> quant: I did. It doesn't register what I have or something. It just stays in one spot and won't let me move the slider.  :-/
[02:16] <quant> creyato, what graphics card do you have?
[02:16] <creyato> Intel N10 I believe.
[02:16] <nit-wit> New1, please explain more clearly
[02:16] <sacarlson> Ish_: only if you backed up your original or installed onto an unused or new partition
[02:17] <ubuntu> hi, I want to use nfs what is mount --bind good for?
[02:17] <creyato> quant: Intel N10 I believe... The brightness applet doesn't even acknolwedge that I can adjust the brightness
[02:17] <sacarlson> Ish_: it took me weeks to fix most of my apps
[02:17] <creyato> quant: It just shows a N/A sign in the icon and the slider is all the way down.
[02:17] <quant> creyato, I can do it in ATI Catalyst, perhaps try to do it if you have something similar for your graphics card
[02:18] <nit-wit> creyato, try the fn key down and the left/right arrows on keyboard
[02:18] <sacarlson> Ish_:  you might try virtualbox to test all your apps you now use before you install on a real partition
[02:18] <quant> creyato, you can also try xgamma -gamma 0.5 to 1.5 etc., but I don't find that satisfying
[02:19] <creyato> nit-wit: The FN functions depend on the keyboard layout. My layout is setup so FN+Left/Right is for volume. Which works perfectly.
[02:19] <New1> instead of using Update Manager wich want to download 161.1 of MB i want to use Terminal to update all the files less than 5 MB becouse right now it will take me an hour to do so
[02:19] <nit-wit> creyato, alright that works good luck ;)
[02:19] <dzup2> is gaybuntu been release abytime soon?
[02:19] <dzup2> anytime*
[02:19] <New1> so what is the command for that?
[02:20] <IdleOne> dzup2: there is no such distro and if there is it will NOT be supported here.
[02:20] <nit-wit> New1, use the update manger and tick off what you don't want but be carefull you may be dealing with dependencies
[02:21] <nit-wit> New1, you could do a sudo apt-get install of the packages from a terminal
[02:22] <New1> nit-wit sure but the list is long. i did not use this pc losg time
[02:22] <quant> New1, what do you want to achieve exactly?
[02:22] <New1> not install new pachages but to update them
[02:22] <studentz> Hi there I'm stuck  in the login screen. i cannot get access neither gnome or xterm. I do not forget my password. Please help me
[02:22] <IdleOne> New1: the longer you wait to do the update the longer the download will take as new updates are added
[02:23] <quant> New1, you cannot just update, you must install new versions
[02:23] <nit-wit> New1,  yes but you can see the list with a terminal update copy that list to a gedit the arrange it into a apt-get install
[02:23] <New1> IdleOne sure i agree too
[02:24] <thunkee> studentz: xterm? do you mean text login with ctrl alt f1 thing?
[02:24] <New1> nit-wit ok let me see
[02:24] <nit-wit> New1,  you have to get creative here

[02:29] <Jouva> After reading up a little bit, I was able to make the mic on my netbook work with skype. It required specifying PULSE_SERVER=127.0.0.1 in a command. However, this netbook is going to my mom and she's not going to understand that. Is there some way of forcing this to work otherwise?
[02:30] <studentz> thunkee  I'm in a terminal finally.
[02:30] <rww> fleshwormx: I don't understand what you're saying. If there's another language you're more comfortable with than English, say which and I can point you to its channel.
[02:30] <ldlework> If anyone is handy with mencoder... I'm trying to record video with audio but can't get the audio part. I'm not sure what audio device I should be pointing mencoder at. The dock based sound control sees my webcam's mono audio input and skype uses it correctly too. Any ideas?

[02:34] <nit-wit> New1,  no problem it is different the MS with dependencies and just lots of updates sometimes
[02:34] <thunkee> studentz: ok have to stop gdm ... do you use gnome?

[02:40] <nit-wit> New1,  the tab is a nice thing, never tried it that way though, mainly here for names and manual logins to a grub failure
[02:40] <sacarlson> Guest68871: did you look at this? http://www.ubuntugeek.com/creating-custom-ubuntu-live-cd-with-remastersys.html
[02:41] <nit-wit> see you all on the other side

[02:44] <phusion__> hey guys. I have a server with two NIC's in it. one is onboard (2x1Gbps, 2x10GigE fiber onboard, 4x1Gbps add-in card). I'm finding with the add-in card, interfaces are being named differently upon each boot. For instance, 3 out of the 4 interfaces on the add-in card seem to stay as eth4, eth5, eth6, however the 4th interface tends to switch between eth0_rename and eth1_rename upon boot. Any idea how to stop this?
[02:44] <fleshwormx> being to close to the switch
[02:44] <fleshwormx> brb
[02:44] <New1> IdleOne tnx. OMG i did it a lot of time with "Update Manager" him self
[02:44] <Flannel> New1: If you stop it during the [download packages] portion, it won't generally do anything bad. But you don't want to stop it during the [unpacking and installing packages] portion (it downloads everything first, then does all the unpackaging)
[02:45] <New1> Flannet ooohhh good to know tnx :)
[02:46] <New1> and yes now it's only on the Donwload mode
[02:46] <Guest68871> sacarlson, Thank you, I have been searching google but not found this. This looks good and I also found APTonCD.

[03:08] <magicjoe> ANYBODY: im on the section "compiling a new kernel" all the way up to make-kpkg and it crashes at the very end of that, with an error 2. this makes it impossible to continue this tutorial. and if i reboot, im afraid i will have killed the whole thing. so MUST do correctly.
[03:08] <antipop> Hi, I hava a java app that I stop with ^C , and I'm trying to run it as daemon with update-rc.d ? how can I di it? I really dont' kmnwo what to put in the stop section
[03:08] <Docfxit> I'm getting a message saying "usershares are currently disabled
[03:09] <Docfxit> How can I enable them?
[03:11] <magicjoe> so im pretty much screwed?
[03:12] <magicjoe> yep....
[03:12] <rigved> hi everyone
[03:14] <rigved> my computer shutdown unexpectedly? how do i diagnose the error that caused it? using ubuntu 10.04
[03:16] <thunkee> rigved: look at /var/log/messages
[03:16] <New1> if i do sudo apt-get upgrade , is that do also update ?
[03:17] <dark3lf> New1: no
[03:17] <krunal> what do you do with a .run file?
[03:17] <New1> dark3lf tnx
[03:17] <rigved> thunkee: ok. i'll paste the last line here
[03:17] <dark3lf> New1: just do "sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade" in one line
[03:17] <deww> krunal: chmod +x and probably ./file.run
[03:18] <deww> krunal: what's the .run file suppsed to be?
[03:18] <krunal> deww, its a linux nvidia driver
[03:18] <rigved> thunkee: Nov 24 14:33:35 rigved-desktop rsyslogd: [origin software="rsyslogd" swVersion="4.2.0" x-pid="853" x-info="http://www.rsyslog.com"] rsyslogd was HUPed, type 'lightweight'.
[03:18] <deww> krunal: you didn't like the one ubuntu installs?
[03:18] <krunal> deww, i'm really not sure if i should install it....
[03:18] <brophat> to start the gui should i just do a startx?
[03:19] <rigved> thunkee: this is the last line. same in syslog. what does it mean?
[03:19] <New1> dark3lf tnx again :)
[03:19] <krunal> deww, in "additional drivers".... there is a restricted driver that I can install - when I did > i rebooted and all I could get is a black screen with console $....couldn't get into the gnome enviroment. apparently there are issues with  nvidia drivers and ubuntu... i have the new dell xps 15 with geforce gt 420m
[03:20] <thunkee> rigved: as you see there are a lot messages find the messages around reboot/boot
[03:20] <deww> might be with that specific card
[03:20] <rigved> thunkee: ok
[03:21] <studentz> Thunkee I repeat twice  the instructions and reboot for the second time without any success.
[03:21] <krunal> deww, if i were to install this driver from nvidias website...should i uninstall the existing driver first?
[03:22] <pksadiq> krunal: did you try sudo nvidia-xconfig?
[03:22] <krunal> pksadiq, command not found
[03:23] <pksadiq> krunal: did you already uninstalled the driver?
[03:23] <thunkee> studentz: after X & do you get a graphical screen? or a lot of errors?
[03:23] <krunal> pksadiq, no i have not done anything yet
[03:24] <pksadiq> krunal: and so you need to download from nvidia site, isn't that what you mean?, but I think it's better to install nvidia-current package
[03:24] <pksadiq> !nvidia | krunal
[03:24] <krunal> pksadiq, when i installed nvidia-current package...i got black screen after reboot
[03:25] <studentz> thunkee I got a black screen for a long type. The i ctrl alt f1 . There is a error but  they say something like it is no fatal
[03:25] <pksadiq> krunal: it blinked to or 3 times and brought you to shell isn't it?
[03:25] <krunal> pksadiq, yes
[03:26] <Dennis_> I'm running Ubuntu 10.04 and I seem to have lost my flash. I've tried to reinstall flash using a series of commands to Delete, Force, Install. None of these have worked, and I can't get Flash to work in Firefox. Any suggestions?
[03:26] <pksadiq> krunal: when you reach the shell login
[03:26] <krunal> pksadiq, i was stuck in shell - i reinstalled ubuntu because of it....
[03:26] <pksadiq> krunal: then type sudo nvidia-xconfig
[03:26] <thunkee> studentz: did typed gnome-session then?
[03:26] <pfifo> I cant hear any sound?
[03:27] <pksadiq> krunal: then restart you system, that might be enough, if not, come back here using Live CD
[03:27] <brophat> who wants to help me try to get my gui going?
[03:27] <studentz> thunkee   warning ** : Cannot open display

[03:27] <krunal> that is what I have.... it is OPTIMUS nvidia card
[03:27] <fleshwormx> jeje
[03:27] <thunkee> studentz: right forgot export DISPLAY=:0 sry
[03:28] <krunal> pksadiq, that is what I have.... it is OPTIMUS nvidia card
[03:28] <studentz> thunkee Should I type it now or I should repeat all the commands?
[03:29] <thunkee> studentz: if you launched X & type export DISPLAY=:0
[03:29] <pfifo> I pirated a copy of ubuntu 8.10 from a torrent but im hoping I can still get support
[03:29] <bazhang> pfifo, that is not pirated nor is it supported any longer
[03:29] <bazhang> !eol > pfifo
[03:30] <krunal> pksadiq, should I use proprietary drivers ?
[03:30] <share> hi
[03:30] <pksadiq> krunal: that is I said, nvidia-current
[03:30] <pksadiq> !info nvidia-current
[03:30] <krunal> pksadiq, so the one i have currenty is fine ?
[03:31] <pksadiq> krunal: now does compiz works well?
[03:31] <studentz> thunkee  I'm  getting a lot of text. Waiting ...
[03:31] <rigved> thunkee: so that last message which i postd here was an old one. it seems that the new messages are at the bottom. but since the file is very large, it still hasn't opened up completely. i'll check the message around shutdown when it has loaded completely. thanx for your help.
[03:31] <share> How can I flush DNS cache?
[03:31] <krunal> pksadiq, yes it works fine so far....
[03:31] <Dennis_> I'm running Ubuntu 10.04 and I seem to have lost my flash. I've tried to reinstall flash using a series of commands to Delete, Force, Install. None of these have worked, and I can't get Flash to work in Firefox. Help.
[03:32] <pksadiq> krunal: then don't get your PC damaged once more ;),
[03:32] <thunkee> studentz: try ctrl+alt+F8
[03:32] <krunal> pksadiq, okay... but i want to be able to use all features for the gfx card
[03:32] <pksadiq> !flash
[03:32] <zmjb1> n00b here, how do I get mousepad to functin with horizontal scrolling and 2 finger scrolling like in windows?
[03:32] <brophat> startx returns "error in locking authority file .../.Xauthority"
[03:32] <Skapare> Dennis_: have you tried a complete uninstall AND flush of firefox and re-install it back, then add flash?
[03:33] <brophat> anyone have an idea?
[03:33] <krunal> zmjb1, i have the same question
[03:33] <studentz> thunkee I did I get my Gnome desktop. What I should do now?
[03:33] <skx> what does "put computer to sleep" in Power Management Preferences mean? is it suspend? hibernate? something else?
[03:33] <Dennis_> No, I'll try anything at this point.
[03:33] <pksadiq> krunal: if compiz works well, that does mean your graphix card is detected and being used
[03:33] <Ali_nz> how do you check if GDM is running?
[03:33] <thunkee> studentz: first open a terminal or text editor and do smoe typing lokking ich keyboard is ok
[03:34] <thunkee> studentz: some looking if :)
[03:34] <krunal> pksadiq, okay cool. Thank you!
[03:34] <Dennis_> Skapare: No, I'll try anything at this point.
[03:34] <zmjb1> anyone on the mouse question?
[03:34] <studentz> thunkee it is working ok. :)
[03:35] <joevandyk> Is there a way to automatically update the time zone on ubuntu?
[03:36] <thunkee> studentz: ok my first impression was the xkbd is messed because you cant login ... now it looks loke gdm is messes anyhow
[03:36] <joevandyk> "dpkg-reconfigure tzdata" requires interaction
[03:36] <studentz> thunkee .  Should I try to log out an in ?
[03:36] <shmup> joe, i'm no power user but..
[03:36] <shmup> http://blog.mypapit.net/2007/06/ubuntu-how-to-syncronise-computer-time-with-ntp.html
[03:36] <Random832> how do you rearrange icons on the launcher on ubuntu netbook edition?
[03:36] <zmjb1> - joevandyk I see yu can add multiple time zones and easily change them
[03:36] <shmup> sudo ntpdate europe.pool.ntp.org north-america.pool.ntp.org
[03:37] <shmup> oh  you did say automatically
[03:37] <shmup> ~.~
[03:37] <rww> shmup: that's time, not timezone ;)
[03:37] <joevandyk> shmup: not update the time via ntp, change the timezone
[03:37] <shmup> heeeh
[03:37] <joevandyk> is it just a matter of updating /etc/timezone?
[03:37] <zmjb1> - joevandyk click on date and time, then click edit next to locations
[03:37] <joevandyk> zmjb1: not using GUI
[03:37] <joevandyk> i need to automate this
[03:37] <joevandyk> (in a chef script)
[03:37] <zmjb1> sorry
[03:38] <Hilikus> i have the keyboard brake feature activated in my 10.10 but there is no icon in the toolbar that indicates how much time is left until the break
[03:38] <joevandyk> hm, maybe I want to symlink /etc/localtime?
[03:38] <Hilikus> anyone knows how to fix it?
[03:39] <thunkee> studentz: hmm log out of gnome session then sudo killall X then /etc/init.d/gdm start
[03:39] <justanotherguy> i'm trying to do a fresh install of ubuntu, and wanted to edit the partitions manually via the live cd and gparted before installing it but gparted runs forever and never finishes scanning the drives for partitions. does anyone know how to correct this? i'm lost. thanks.
[03:41] <thunkee> studentz: sudo /etc/init.d/gdm start
[03:41] <pksadiq> justanotherguy: try sudo gparted /dev/sda            to search only for sda partitons and configure
[03:41] <Ali_nz> anyone here got CUDA up and running?
[03:41] <ZoomaBaresAll> i'm trying to install on a netbook from a USB, and i get a graphics initialization fail. anyone have any suggestions?
[03:42] <justanotherguy> pksadiq: awesome.  i really only want to edit sdb, so i'll try gparted /dev/sdb. thanks. i'll try it.
[03:42] <Meiam> I need some help can some one help me
[03:43] <studentz> thunkee I did . But the problem is still there.  What I should do? Yo make smile for ten minutes :)
[03:44] <Meiam> I try to hook my phone up but it just keeps looping back and forth and wont mount.  I think it thinks it is mounted.
[03:44] <pksadiq> !ask | Meiam
[03:44] <otniel> does anyone knows a guide or reference for how is linux organized? I mean i don't know nothing about how and where it stores its files and how the desktop is put up together...thanks
[03:45] <thunkee> studentz: checking gdm configuration :) easiest maybe reinstall gdm
[03:45] <FrozenFire> ZoomaBaresAll: Do you know what your display adapter's model is?
[03:45] <bazhang> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/LinuxFilesystemTreeOverview otniel
[03:45] <ZoomaBaresAll> FrozenFire: i do not. how would find out?
[03:45] <studentz> thunkee sudo apt-get install gdm .  I'm guessing
[03:45] <I-are-> \join #java
[03:46] <thunkee> studentz: should be stopped and removed before
[03:46] <ZoomaBaresAll> the nb is a toshiba... does that help?
[03:46] <FrozenFire> ZoomaBaresAll: What model is your system? That should be on the case.
[03:46] <Meiam> I try to hook my phone up but it just keeps looping back and forth and wont mount.  I think it thinks it is mounted.
[03:46] <otniel> thanks that would be a great start
[03:46] <otniel> will*
[03:46] <studentz> thunkee What is the command to remove it
[03:46] <pksadiq> Meiam: which phone?
[03:46] <StrangeCharm> does passwords and encryption keys support hkps?
[03:47] <Meiam> htc incredible
[03:47] <FrozenFire> StrangeCharm: I do not believe so
[03:47] <krunal> can one set a permanent zoom level on ephiphany ? i have a 1080p screen and shit it too small!
[03:47] <thunkee> studentz: time to ask :) i want to reset my gdm configuration to ubuntu defaults how to do that?
[03:47] <StrangeCharm> FrozenFire, sigh
[03:48] <pksadiq> Meiam: mounting the filesystem in ubuntu to browse?
[03:48] <bazhang> krunal, language please
[03:48] <ZoomaBaresAll> FrozenFire: it's a Toshiba NB 255
[03:48] <krunal> bazhang, i'm sorry
[03:48] <FrozenFire> StrangeCharm: https://bugs.launchpad.net/seahorse/+bug/571297 That seems to be a relevant bug.
[03:48] <Meiam> yes it wont even mount it.
[03:49] <studentz> thunk Yes I want to reset my gdm configuration to Ubuntu defaults How to do that?
[03:49] <FrozenFire> ZoomaBaresAll: I assume you're trying to install Ubuntu Netbook Remix?
[03:49] <ZoomaBaresAll> FrozenFire: yes
[03:49] <Random832> why is it the key for the number of workspaces lives in /apps/metacity/general/num_workspaces when it seems like every wm uses it?
[03:50] <pksadiq> studentz: if X server is the problem just rename xorg.conf file and restart
[03:50] <StrangeCharm> FrozenFire, earlier, i asked about firefox and the same app. is there a bug for that too?
[03:51] <FrozenFire> StrangeCharm: Just FYI, the password manager for Ubuntu is called "Seahorse"
[03:51] <thunkee> pksadiq: X server is ok
[03:51] <FrozenFire> As for Firefox, it implements its password storage in an SQLite database, iirc.
[03:51] <Meiam> I try to hook my phone up but it just keeps looping back and forth and wont mount.  I think it thinks it is already mounted.
[03:51] <studentz> pksadiq I already did it . I remove it and restart . But the problem is still there.  Any other suggestion?
[03:51] <StrangeCharm> FrozenFire, not something that one can tell from the "inside"
[03:51] <thunkee> studentz: do not rename the conf file
[03:52] <FrozenFire> ZoomaBaresAll: I haven't forgotten about you ;). Just reading up on your chipset.
[03:52] <pksadiq> studentz: I thing there is something like sudo X --configure
[03:52] <ZoomaBaresAll> FrozenFire: cheers, no worries no hurries
[03:52] <FrozenFire> It seems that it's a known issue that your chipset does not have good out-of-the-box support.
[03:53] <Meiam> How do I unmount a usb that I cant see.
[03:53] <ZoomaBaresAll> I knew it! this always happens. i buy machines with unsupported hardware
[03:53] <pksadiq> studentz: it's sudo Xorg -configure
[03:53] <FrozenFire> ZoomaBaresAll: New machines always tend to have these sorts of issues.
[03:53] <justanotherguy>  pksadiq:gparted is chugging away. looks like i'll get ubuntu installed in sdb, but why can i never scan sda with gparted? any idea?
[03:53] <Gorroth> hi
[03:53] <pksadiq> Meiam: is your phone is detected by ubuntu?
[03:53] <ZoomaBaresAll> that makes sense
[03:53] <FrozenFire> Especially things like netbooks, because they use slightly non-standard hardware.
[03:53] <antipop> Hi, I hava a java app that I stop with ^C , and I'm trying to run it as daemon with update-rc.d ? how can I do it? I really dont' know what to put in the stop section of the script
[03:53] <thunkee> studentz: do not reconfigure xorg pls
[03:53] <Gorroth> any way to make 'apt-cache' search only a single repo?
[03:53] <Meiam> No
[03:53] <ZoomaBaresAll> gotcha
[03:54] <thunkee> pksadiq: the X server is ok
[03:54] <bazhang> Gorroth, why would you want to
[03:54] <Gorroth> because i do
[03:54] <ZoomaBaresAll> which is why my sister had no problem installing on her five year old laptop
[03:54] <FrozenFire> ZoomaBaresAll: At what stage does the error happen?
[03:54] <Gnea> antipop: did you look at skeleton?
[03:55] <Wicked> !webcam
[03:55] <antipop> gnat_x no, what t is?
[03:55] <Gorroth> just wondering if it's possible or not.  i didn't see anything in the man pages about it really
[03:55] <brophat> how can i test my wifi connection. ping sometimes works and sometimes it doesn't
[03:55] <antipop> Gnea
[03:55] <ZoomaBaresAll> it happens when i restart, hit f12 to boot from the USB, and select the USB. it says "graphics initiliazation failure" or something, and goes to a command line that just says "boot:"
[03:55] <studentz> thunkee  I'm in tty1 thinking what I should do?
[03:55] <thunkee> studentz: still looking
[03:55] <Gnea> antipop: should be in /etc/init.d/
[03:56] <tkmmc> brophat you can  ask  sb. help you ,connect your  computer
[03:57] <FrozenFire> ZoomaBaresAll: Funny enough, the solution seems to simply be to type "help" when it says boot:
[03:57] <FrozenFire> Then enter, of course.
[03:57] <antipop> Gnea looking at it, but the issue
[03:57] <antipop> is that currently I stop the app with contro-c
[03:57] <Guest47299> I was wandering I am currently on kde 3.5, is it worth it at all to go to 4.0 and up or will it slow down a lot of stuff like vista?
[03:57] <Meiam> No my phone is not detected by ubuntu
[03:57] <antipop> but how do I stop it from the init script ?
[03:57] <ZoomaBaresAll> FrozenFire: thanks a lot! i'll give that a try, and hop back on here if that doesn't work
[03:57] <bazhang> Guest47299, what version of kubuntu
[03:57] <jc> How can i get the program ncdump??
[03:57] <FrozenFire> ZoomaBaresAll: Good luck :)
[03:57] <Guest47299> bazhang, 10.10 Maverick
[03:58] <ZoomaBaresAll> thanks
[03:58] <bazhang> Guest47299, from a PPA?
[03:58] <Guest47299> bazhang, yeah
[03:58] <pksadiq> Meiam: after plugging your phone try lsusb, does it show?
[03:58] <palermo> Meiam: What model is your phone?
[03:58] <bazhang> Guest47299, doubtful
[03:58] <Guest47299> bazhang, i was just asking if I should upgrade or not
[03:59] <Guest47299> bazhang, I forget where I installed kubuntu from
[03:59] <bazhang> Guest47299, you purged it? in lieu of the ppa?
[03:59] <Gnea> antipop: antipop can you pastebin what you have so far?
[03:59] <DonJuan> I got a hard question if anyone can help out.
[03:59] <FrozenFire> !ask | DonJuan
[03:59] <c-Toxz> lol
[03:59] <AMTechHelp> Hi
[03:59] <Guest47299> bazhang, no I installed normal ubuntu, then I installed kde 3.5, and I am wandering if 4.0 would slow down my system
[03:59] <bazhang> c-Toxz, ?
[03:59] <newbyx86> hm may or not be the place to ask
[03:59] <AMTechHelp> Hi
[03:59] <newbyx86> does ubuntu come with a command line app that takes in a number and outputs that number in words?
[03:59] <thunkee> studentz: sudo stop gdm
[03:59] <bazhang> Guest47299, if you can run gnome, then kde4 wont be an issue
[03:59] <newbyx86> if so what is it called?
[03:59] <antipop> Gnea https://gist.github.com/717552
[04:00] <Meiam> pksadiq: No it does not show my phone.
[04:00] <Gnea> newbyx86: nafaik
[04:00] <DonJuan> Does anyone know of a way that I can install ubuntu by booting in GParted? I've got a computer that refuses to boot from my thumb drive although booting from USB is an option and no access to CD's.
[04:00] <FrozenFire> newbyx86: You mean converting something like "123" to "One hundred twenty three"?
[04:00] <newbyx86> yeap
[04:00] <Gnea> antipop: I'm guessing that this is your first shell script
[04:00] <AMTechHelp> Hi
[04:00] <pksadiq> Meiam: again , does dmesg shows anything related to phone?
[04:00] <AMTechHelp> Hi
[04:00] <Guest47299> bazhang, weird part is gnome slows down my games kde 3.5 doesnt, so I am worried 3d games on kde 4.0 will slow down like gnome
[04:00] <newbyx86> FrozenFire: yes, rather.
[04:00] <bazhang> AMTechHelp, hi
[04:00] <eazseecasur> anyone know  torcs , a 3d car racing game? i have an analog pad but it doesn t work what should i do?
[04:01] <studentz> thunkee stop gdm Unknown instance.
[04:01] <antipop> Gnea its my first init.d script
[04:01] <FrozenFire> newbyx86: I don't think there's anything for that. It's too esoteric an issue.
[04:01] <Gnea> antipop: ah, then you should know that variables ought to be defined outside of case loops
[04:01] <bazhang> Guest47299, not sure there, as I dont run 3D games
[04:01] <FrozenFire> newbyx86: You could write a script to accomplish that, though.
[04:01] <studentz> gdm stop give some messages
[04:01] <thunkee> studentz: sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop ignore errors then apt-get purge gdm then apt-get install gdm
[04:01] <MTecknology> AMTechHelp: heh- your making me get hilighted in two channels :P
[04:02] <thunkee> studentz: sry apts with sudo in front
[04:02] <newbyx86> yeah likely could
[04:02] <Guest47299> Okay is it better then to install the nvidia driver from the website or use the Opensource one Ubuntu recommends
[04:02] <newbyx86> eh oh well
[04:02] <newbyx86> thanks for the help fellas
[04:02] <FrozenFire> DonJuan: There are a few solutions.
[04:02] <bazhang> Guest47299, for 3D likely the proprietary one
[04:02] <FrozenFire> DonJuan: Firstly, you might consider a "Network Installation"
[04:02] <Guest47299> bazhang, thats the one from the website right? sorry its late for me
[04:03] <bazhang> Guest47299, from hardware drivers though, not the website
[04:03] <antipop> Gnea https://gist.github.com/717552
[04:03] <FrozenFire> DonJuan: Or, you could write the installer to your thumbdrive and try booting from it. Be sure that you enable booting from USB in your BIOS.
[04:03] <DonJuan> FrozenFire: I looked into that, but most of the processes were for booting either from a dedicated server or from another Linux machine.
[04:03] <nimbiotics> Hello all. I need some serious help here: I haven't been able to share folders using samba, no matter how I try to do it. gadmin-samba shows the status as "Activated, Inactiver servers: nmbd, winbindd". PLEASE HELP ME. TIA!!!
[04:03] <FrozenFire> !caps | nimbiotics
[04:03] <bazhang> Guest47299, keep in mind you'll need to reconfigure it once there is a kernel update; the open source works great here, but I dont play 3D games so you mileage may vary
[04:04] <studentz> thunkee done. Now what is the next step?
[04:04] <thunkee> studentz: sudo start gdm
[04:04] <Guest47299> bazhang, so your saying for 3d I should install the one from the website I know about the kernel parts
[04:04] <DonJuan> FrozenFire: I've got a laptop with Windows 7 installed on it, but not really wanting to mess with it too much as it's not mine. I wrote the .iso to the thumb drive (one that I used to install openSUSE on my desktop) but it's just not working. I enabled "Boot from USB" in BIOS, but the option doesn't show up in the drive boot order.
[04:04] <Gnea> antipop: okay, a bit better, now you might want to put the options in a variable and then call them. also, why aren't you creating a pid file?
[04:04] <eazseecasur> anyone know  torcs , a 3d car racing game? i have an analog pad but it doesn t work what should i do?
[04:04] <bazhang> Guest47299, from hardware drivers (additional drivers) not the website
[04:04] <nimbiotics> FrozenFire, sry
[04:05] <Guest47299> bazhang, okay then that wont change much drivers wise I mean, cause thats what I am running right now
[04:05] <antipop> Gnea how can I create the f
[04:05] <nimbiotics> FrozenFire, sry. Im desperate, been trying for 2 days already
[04:05] <antipop> pid file?
[04:05] <Guest47299> and still slowdown in gnome for me
[04:05] <FrozenFire> DonJuan: During initialization (prior to the bootloader) the system generally provides a "boot menu"
[04:05] <antipop> Gnea how can I create the pid file?
[04:05] <FrozenFire> DonJuan: Typically, that's F12 or something similar.
[04:05] <bazhang> Guest47299, that wont change it, no
[04:05] <studentz> thunkee get the login screen  I log in but without success.
[04:05] <FrozenFire> nimbiotics: And I'd be happy to help. You just have to elaborate further on the issue.
[04:05] <dfcnvt> nimbiotics: apt-get install swat
[04:06] <thunkee> studentz: same as at the beginning?
[04:06] <FrozenFire> I recall trying to help earlier, but you got stuck trying to enable the Location Bar in Nautilus.
[04:06] <dfcnvt> nimbiotics: then check via browser to change setting...
[04:06] <DonJuan> FrozenFire: I'm familiar with that, but for some reason this mobo doesn't give the boot menu option. All I've got is BIOS and an option to install from network.
[04:06] <studentz> thunkee  yes
[04:06] <FrozenFire> DonJuan: It's possible that the thumbdrive doesn't support booting.

[04:07] <Meiam> sorry
[04:07] <FrozenFire> Wubi will install Ubuntu in a file on the Windows partition.

[04:07] <consoleart> hi, i have ubuntu 10.10 instaled on my HP laptop...it was working...now if i try to boot it boots into command prompt...can someone help me to fix it
[04:07] <FrozenFire> It's generally safe to use.
[04:07] <antipop> Gnea looking...
[04:08] <zkriesse> hallo all
[04:08] <pksadiq> Meiam: I think , you have to change some settings in phone, probably in the connectivity of settings
[04:08] <DonJuan> FrozenFire: Doesn't that install ubuntu within the Windows OS? Not really the option I was wanting to go for.
[04:08] <justanotherguy> consoleart: try startx and see if it starts the gui
[04:08] <thunkee> studentz: gdm support page points out it can be memory/disk space problem, do you have enough disk space and memory? commands: free and df
[04:08] <consoleart> no it does not
[04:08] <consoleart> it throws up error and stops..
[04:08] <Alan502> I'm having trouble wiriting  a script... are there value types in scripts?
[04:08] <studentz> Thunkee I don't know if this important . I left my box in hibernation while i get my new hd (black friday). Then I installed my HD . I did not log in-out normally
[04:08] <c-Toxz> hola
[04:08] <FrozenFire> DonJuan: It's not at all risky. It's something I do often for those who wish to try Ubuntu without making a permanent change to their system.
[04:08] <FrozenFire> DonJuan: http://www.ubuntu.com/desktop/get-ubuntu/windows-installer
[04:08] <justanotherguy> consoleart: what ubuntu did you install? the desktop version?
[04:09] <consoleart> i have logged into using fail safe graphics mode...and its working...but if i boot up normallyy it goes to command prompt
[04:09] <consoleart> desktop version
[04:09] <ramseyd__> hi
[04:09] <consoleart> yes
[04:09] <studentz> thunkee yes I have 6gb of memory and 2 tb in my two hd
[04:09] <justanotherguy> consoleart: what is the error?
[04:09] <DonJuan> FrozenFire: I've got the link pulled up already, thanks though. I'm looking to get ubuntu permanently installed on here though.
[04:09] <Meiam> pksadiq: it works on my other computer.  It mounted up just fine the first time but then I did not mount it in the terminal and so something is screw up.
[04:09] <FrozenFire> DonJuan: If portability is absolutely necessary, you might go pick yourself up an external hard disk enclosure.
[04:09] <consoleart> some audio driver error
[04:09] <consoleart> i dont know the actual content
[04:10] <ramseyd__> Hi guys quick question. I am using ubuntu10.10 and trying to run the command "service vsftpd stop". But I get this warning: "stop: Unknown instance:" Can someone please tell me how to fix this?
[04:10] <justanotherguy> consoleart: i'm not real good at X issues. but i never saw audio issues stopping it from starting.
[04:10] <FrozenFire> DonJuan: Are you installing to the same drive as Windows is on?
[04:10] <nimbiotics> FrozenFire, Im a noob, dont know what to tell you. I ve got a smal home LAN, one win pc and ubuntu on the other one. Have shares on the win pc and i cant even see the pc on nautilus. OTH I shared a folder using gadmin-samba and another one from nautilus and, again; I cannot se the linux pc on windows. Purdeg samba, deleted smb.conf and reinstalled. same thing. gadmin-samab keeps giving me...
[04:10] <pksadiq> Meiam: but it dmesg says it's disconnected before setting up, isn't it, might be some erors with cable or you have to try obexftp
[04:10] <nimbiotics> ...same status
[04:10] <FrozenFire> DonJuan: Or do you have a separate disk in the system?
[04:10] <thunkee> studentz: should be enough :) you have a swap partition?
[04:11] <consoleart> if you can tell me how do i check the log for error i will do and will let you know...
[04:11] <FrozenFire> nimbiotics: That really sounds like a networking problem. Check the IP address of each system and tell me them.
[04:11] <studentz> yes I do , and I think that it is big enough(16 gb)
[04:11] <nimbiotics> dfcnvt: how do i check settings via browser?
[04:11] <DonJuan> FrozenFire: I going to install ubuntu over the current Windows installation. This desktop has two HDD's, and I planned to use one for system and the other for the home partition.
[04:11] <justanotherguy> consoleart: if it was me i'd try reinstallling X but others here might have a better solution.  anyone..?
[04:11] <consoleart> how do reinstall just x...
[04:12] <consoleart> i can try it ...no problem for me
[04:12] <krunal> is there a solution to watch quicktime movies on ubuntu? on web browsers
[04:12] <nimbiotics> FrozenFire: First of all, I must tell you that im using DHCP on my router, could that be an issue?
[04:12] <justanotherguy> consoleart: sec, i'll look up what i use to install minimal X. you're using gnome right?
[04:12] <pfifo> consoleart, can you pastebin /var/log/Xorg.log
[04:12] <FrozenFire> DonJuan: What you could do is install the Ubuntu installer to a partition on the end of the home-partition disk, install the system, then remove the installer partition and resize your home partition to the size of the disk.
[04:13] <consoleart> yes...gnome
[04:13] <Meiam> pksadiq: what is obexftp?
[04:13] <qwertyjustin> hi, whats the best way to dual boot. - Via the WUBi install, or by cdrom, so the Operating systems are more side by side?
[04:13] <FrozenFire> nimbiotics: DHCP isn't really an issue at all.
[04:13] <FrozenFire> nimbiotics: What I'm looking for is the possibility that your systems are within two different subnets.
[04:13] <DonJuan> qwertyjustin: Wubi isn't a dual boot option in the normal sense. It just allows you to run Ubuntu from within Windows.
[04:13] <nimbiotics> FrozenFire: linux pc: 192.168.1.101 //  win pc: 192.168.1.102
[04:14] <consoleart> pfifo: no such file in my machine....
[04:14] <FrozenFire> nimbiotics: Alright, so the systems are indeed on the same subnet. That's good.
[04:14] <qwertyjustin> DonJuan: ahh yes. is it any slower or have any drawbacks?
[04:14] <pksadiq> Meiam: most nokia phones can be mounted as obex, this tool is used to mount obex file systems , I don't know whether HTC too uses that
[04:14] <FrozenFire> nimbiotics: Are you running a firewall on either system?
[04:14] <pfifo> consoleart, there should be xorg logs somewhere in /var/log
[04:14] <FrozenFire> nimbiotics: *Especially* the Windows system.
[04:15] <DonJuan> qwertyjustin: Not sure to be honest, never personally used it. I wouldn't imagine so depending on what the system your using has hardware wise.
[04:15] <consoleart> pfifo: i have some 6-7 org logs
[04:15] <pfifo> consoleart, how about /var/log/Xorg.0.log
[04:15] <consoleart> ok...wht is the pastebin url ?
[04:15] <FrozenFire> nimbiotics: http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc787076%28WS.10%29.aspx There's how to enable file sharing through Windows Firewall, which you may have enabled.
[04:15] <consoleart> go it
[04:15] <pfifo> pastebin.com
[04:16] <nimbiotics> FrozenFire: on both, but taka a look at he "Handle connections on" setting I'm geting from gadmin-samba:  127.0.0.1/8 192.168.0.1/24
[04:16] <FrozenFire> nimbiotics: Well... yeah, that would be a problem.
[04:16] <FrozenFire> It's not configured to accept connections on the adapter you're apparently using.
[04:16] <consoleart> pfifo: http://pastebin.com/nQcDgfRa
[04:17] <eazseecasur> anyone know  torcs , a 3d car racing game? i have an analog pad but it doesn t work what should i do?
[04:17] <qwertyjustin> DonJuan: Limitations Compared with a regular installation, a Wubi installation faces some  limitations. Hibernation is not supported and the filesystem is more  vulnerable to hard reboots[1].  Also, if the Windows drive is unmounted uncleanly (most commonly  because of a Windows crash), Ubuntu will not be able to mount the  Windows drive and boot until Windows has successfully booted and shut  down. If the Windows system cannot be booted after the cras
[04:17] <FoolsRun> Basic structural question: what's a good place to store python scripts that run regularly?  I can't put them in /etc/cron.hourly for examble because they're Python, right?
[04:17] <Meiam> pksadiq: that did not work.  I think that my computer already thinks that it is mounted.
[04:18] <FrozenFire> FoolsRun: Depends on the context of the script. If it's a root script, you might put it in /root
[04:18] <FrozenFire> If it's a user script, put it in the user's home directory.
[04:18] <sk8rjess> what's the command to extract a tar.gz to a specific location
[04:18] <pksadiq> Meiam: does ls /dev/sd* shows sda, sdb etc?
[04:18] <FrozenFire> Depends fully upon whose crontab it's being executed within.
[04:18] <FoolsRun> FrozenFire: it's a root script. Just thought there must be a better place than /root
[04:19] <pfifo> consoleart, your problem has nothing todo with audio, your x isnt starting cause it cant find any usable screens. Have you manually tweaked your xorg.conf file?
[04:19] <FoolsRun> FrozenFire: it's in root's crontab
[04:19] <FrozenFire> FoolsRun: /root is the root user's home directory.
[04:19] <StrangeCharm> i just opend the applications menu, and right-clicked on one of the entries. now my entire gnome bar isn't responding
[04:19] <justanotherguy> consoleart:  there are a few packages. it depends on what you have installed.  but if pfifo can help you then you might not need to reinstall packages.  i'd try pfifo's suggestions first, as i'm no ubuntu expert.     if that fails there's an "ok" guide at http://knol.google.com/k/ubuntu-minimal-desktop-installation-guide# but it really depends on what you have installed.
[04:19] <consoleart> pfifo: no...it was working one day and the next time its not
[04:20] <deww> sk8rjess: you want the -C switch
[04:20] <nimbiotics> FrozenFire: what should this value be? The "Allowed hosts and networks" value does look weird to me also:  127. 192.168.1 , as well as "Anounce this server to:": 192.168.0.255 and Retreive announcements from": 192.168.0.255
[04:20] <justanotherguy> consoleart:  i'm from kybrd for a while...
[04:20] <pfifo> consoleart, did you install updates on that day, or perhaps switch to using nvidia/ati drivers?
[04:20] <Alan502> I need help with a script, please :)
[04:20] <Meiam> Pksadiq: ya it does sta, sda1, sda2, sda5, sdb and sdb1
[04:20] <c-Toxz> jeje
[04:21] <consoleart> i installed updates for nvidia...
[04:21] <FrozenFire> nimbiotics: Honestly, I've never had to mess with gadmin-samba
[04:21] <FrozenFire> It's odd that you would need to.
[04:21] <FrozenFire> For the most part, it autoconfigures.
[04:21] <consoleart> justanotherguy: thanks...i will go with pfifo suggestions...
[04:21] <consoleart> pfifo: yes i installed updates
[04:22] <FrozenFire> nimbiotics: Have you read the Samba guide (https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Samba)?
[04:22] <sk8rjess> deww: what do you mean?
[04:22] <FishFace> nimbiotics: Just to clarify. You cannot see your Win7 shares from Ubuntu?
[04:22] <Lizzard88> Q: I am trying to use SSH on ubuntu to connect to my iPhone via SSH. Anyone know how to do this?
[04:22] <pksadiq> Meiam: try sudo mkdir /media/phone && sudo mount /dev/sdb1 /media/phone
[04:22] <nimbiotics> FrozenFire: im doing this for the second time on same pc's, now with new OSs installed; but first time was a reall pain in the butt too
[04:22] <Lizzard88> I have already been able to turn on SSH on my iphone
[04:23] <nimbiotics> FishFace: 'ive read the guide. PCs are xp and ubuntu and neither one can see the other
[04:23] <studentz> thunkee Why gnome is in tty8 and not in tty7? Also I have tty5 login, but I swear I did not.
[04:23] <FrozenFire> Lizzard88: Not really within the scope of Ubuntu support.
[04:24] <FishFace> nimbiotics: All right. Thought it was a Win7 thing
[04:24] <nimbiotics> FrozenFire: 'ive read the guide. PCs are xp and ubuntu and neither one can see the other
[04:24] <McKooter> Lizzard: how are you trying now
[04:24] <FrozenFire> Lizzard88: That sounds like an apple-related question, rather than anything to do with Ubuntu. The SSH client is pretty standard across all systems.
[04:25] <pfifo> consoleart, type `sudo dpkg-reconfigure Xorg` on the terminal and then reboot
[04:25] <McKooter> yeah Lizzard, because its somewhat outside the scope and to keep the chat cleaner if you want message me and ill try to help
[04:25] <McKooter> no garuntee
[04:25] <consoleart> pfifo: yes sor
[04:25] <nimbiotics> FrozenFire, (reading win link)
[04:25] <consoleart> pfifo: yes sir
[04:25] <sk8rjess> deww: nvm got it :)
[04:25] <Lizzard88> Well, if someone could tell me how to connect a computer via SSH
[04:25] <Lizzard88> essentially its the same question
[04:25] <StrangeCharm> why would my gnome bar stop responding to clicks, but continue to update with application changes and the like?
[04:26] <krunal> how do i view current partitions on my hdd ?
[04:26] <FrozenFire> Lizzard88: ssh user@ip.ad.dr.ess
[04:26] <consoleart> pfifo: it did say anything and came to the command prompt again...i will restart and will be back..ok ?
[04:26] <borikenmedia> jeje
[04:27] <FrozenFire> krunal: System->Administration->Disk Utility
[04:27] <StrangeCharm> krunal system>admin>disk manager
[04:27] <FrozenFire> StrangeCharm: That'd be an issue with Gnome Panel.
[04:27] <thunkee> studentz: hmm tty8 is standard install
[04:27] <FrozenFire> Which is separate from the applications themselves.
[04:28] <FrozenFire> StrangeCharm: I find that happens if I have something like an SSHFS mount which is timing out. It blocks updates to Gnome.
[04:28] <StrangeCharm> FrozenFire, what would be some good ways to fix it?
[04:28] <FrozenFire> StrangeCharm: Determine any mounts you have that are lagging.
[04:28] <FrozenFire> Beyond that, I don't know what causes it.
[04:29] <krunal> FrozenFire, I have a 530gb ext4 parition that is mounted to /incoming - i don't see it in Computer
[04:29] <thunkee> studentz: you can check logs, sudo su then cat /var/log/gdm/:0-slave.log
[04:29] <studentz> thunkee ok. I was wrong I though was tty7. In tty7 there is a lot of text.
[04:29] <StrangeCharm> FrozenFire, what is an sshfs mount?
[04:29] <FrozenFire> StrangeCharm: Not something you really need to worry about ;)
[04:29] <Meiam> pksadiq:mount: /dev/sdb1 already mounted or /media/phone busy
[04:29] <Meiam> mount: according to mtab, /dev/sdb1 is already mounted on /media/phone
[04:29] <thunkee> studentz: tty7 is terminal for your boot screen
[04:29] <FrozenFire> It's a way of mounting a remote directory to a spot on your filesystem, via SSH.
[04:30] <StrangeCharm> FrozenFire, well, it seems that it is of concern to me at this time, because my gnome panel isn't responding
[04:30] <John_Abbott> Nother question
[04:30] <John_Abbott> I have unbuntu installed
[04:30] <John_Abbott> But,
[04:30] <FrozenFire> StrangeCharm: My recommendation would be to simply restart X
[04:30] <John_Abbott> My internet is only laptop.
[04:30] <consoleart> pfifo: i restarted...but its the same...booting to command prompt
[04:30] <FrozenFire> Ctrl-Alt-Backspace
[04:30] <FrozenFire> Save anything you have running, first.
[04:31] <John_Abbott> But
[04:31] <sweetandy> I forget whether I enabled /home encryption when installing this last time, how can I check?
[04:31] <FrozenFire> krunal: Check the directory permissions on /incoming
[04:31] <FrozenFire> krunal: It might not be available because you don't have read access.
[04:31] <John_Abbott> How to I hook up my laptop (with a ethernet cable) and make the internet work?
[04:31] <StrangeCharm> FrozenFire, how do i make that happen? ctrl-alt-del is mapped to a menu. is there a console command i can use?
[04:31] <pfifo> consoleart, what kind of videocard do you have?
[04:31] <FrozenFire> krunal: I would recommend unmount it and the remount it using the Disk Utility.
[04:32] <pksadiq> Meiam: so I think it's already mounted
[04:32] <FrozenFire> StrangeCharm: As I said, Ctrl-Alt-Backspace. Not Ctrl-Alt-Delete.
[04:32] <krunal> FrozenFire, how do i unmount it ? sudo unmount /incoming ?
[04:32] <studentz> thunkee  no output
[04:32] <pksadiq> Meiam: cd /media
[04:32] <consoleart> pfifo: how do i check ?
[04:32] <FrozenFire> krunal: sudo umount /incoming
[04:32] <ChaoRhi> John_Abbot: Does what you're hooking up to (router, another pc, etc) have a DHCP server?
[04:32] <pksadiq> Meiam: and check the folders there, might be there
[04:32] <jc> anybody who use ncdump??
[04:32] <Edwin_ach> hi everybody, i have a problem trying to write (p.e. create a single text file) inside a directory where i have rwx permission and i am root. What could be wrong... filesystem, permissions, attributes (has no attributes set)? some idea, friends? 0_0
[04:33] <qwertyjustin> if i encrypt my /home/ folder, will the stop others from booting via live cd and reaching my data?
[04:33] <StrangeCharm> FrozenFire, ctrl+alt+backspace doesn't do anything
[04:33] <FrozenFire> StrangeCharm: Hrmm... That's odd.
[04:33] <thunkee> studentz: ls -l /var/log/gdm are there files have they length?
[04:33] <FrozenFire> StrangeCharm: Might have to do a magic sysrq restart.
[04:33] <nimbiotics> FrozenFire:followed steps on guide, same thing. starting a win/VM on linux pc to see what happens
[04:33] <StrangeCharm> FrozenFire, tell me more?
[04:33] <ChaoRhi> StrangeCharm: Do the following:
[04:33] <FrozenFire> StrangeCharm: https://secure.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/wiki/Magic_SysRq_key
[04:33] <pksadiq> Meiam: I beleive that you haven't inserted any pendrive or a @nd hard drive,so I assume , the sdb to be your htc
[04:33] <pksadiq> 2nd*
[04:34] <ChaoRhi> 1.) Hit Ctrl+Alt+1 to get to a CLI and login
[04:34] <ChaoRhi> 2.) run sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart
[04:34] <FrozenFire> StrangeCharm: The basic of the Magic SysRQ restart is that you hold Alt+SysRQ and then press, slowly, seconds between each key, "R-S-E-I-U-B"
[04:34] <FishFace> nimbiotics: When you get a chance, look here. Look for 'nikonz' post. It might help you. It did for me in Win7 and should for XP - http://www.tomshardware.com/forum/75-63-windows-samba-issue
[04:35] <dangerous> Not specifically a ubuntu question, but hopefully you might have the answer.  I want to automount my harddrive at boot time, but the problem is that my USB key gets mounted as /dev/sdd at boot time and this drive gets /dev/sde, but if the USB isn't present it will get /dev/sdd.  Is there a different way to refer to the device in the /etc/fstab?
[04:35] <consoleart> pfifo: how do i check ?
[04:35] <ChaoRhi> StrangeCharm: Switching to a TTY and running sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart has saved me countless of times when a OpeGL or SDL app borked in fullscreen
[04:35] <StrangeCharm> FrozenFire, i acutally already have a terminal, so i'm going to follow ChaoRhi's instruction and sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart
[04:35] <sweetandy> How do I see whether I enabled /home encryption at install? I've forgotten.
[04:36] <studentz> thunkee file :0-slave.log.1   log2 log3 log4  have length
[04:36] <nimbiotics> FishFace: checking
[04:36] <pfifo> consoleart, ok i suspect you dont have anything special which is all i needed to know. Im thinking that your trying to load a specialized driver but you dont have a specialized card
[04:36] <deww> dangerous: uuid is one way or label is another
[04:36] <thunkee> studentz: is your gdm running in the moment?
[04:36] <dangerous> deww: thanks - gives me something to google
[04:37] <FrozenFire> sweetandy: System->Administration->Disk Utility should tell you.
[04:37] <consoleart> pfifo: ok got that...how do i find which driver i have installed for video card
[04:37] <studentz> thunkee yes I'm in gnome. But I can get out
[04:37] <djindy> Hello, recently I upgraded to Ubuntu 10.10, and now I have no window borders, nor can I switch workspaces, among other issues. I've tried completely removing compiz and then reinstalling and that hasn't helped. What should I look for to figure out what the problem is and fix it?
[04:37] <pfifo> consoleart, im looking on the forums now for an approprate howto, just a moment
[04:38] <consoleart> pfifo: thnx

[04:48] <FrozenFire> myrkraverk: sudo /etc/init.d/vboxdrv setup
[04:49] <maribells> ok.........
[04:49] <pfifo> consoleart, this will be a bit more difficult, try to start normally, then issue "sudo lsmod > outputfile" to direct the output to a file you can pastebin when you reboot into safe mode. also, while your stuck at the command prompt, try 'sudo modprobe i915' and then 'startx' and see if you get X to start that way

[04:50] <xiong> Hi, Happy Turkey. I'm trying to upgrade Tracker (metatracker) to 0.8.17 and it demands glib >= 2.24.0. I'm running Ubuntu 9.10 and I'm not really ready to upgrade the OS. I'm sure, if I work at it, I can figure out how to upgrade Glib; but is this just going to cascade? That is, will I get sucked into one dependency after another until nothing but an OS upgrade will end it?
[04:50] <consoleart> pfifo: ok, i appreciate your help...i will shutdown/start and will be back
[04:50] <studentz> thunkee sudo killall give me verbose inf. Did I forget something else in this command?
[04:51] <xiong> -- For that matter, will upgrade to 10.4 solve it all?
[04:51] <thunkee> studentz: pls cat /etc/group and look at line nopasswdlogin
[04:51] <myrkraverk> FrozenFire:: Thank you.  Something must be broken since I never get any reply from that.  Not even from status.
[04:52] <calamity> heya all, I'm trying to download xubuntu for a veeery old IBM laptop, but it seems like all the download options are really slow
[04:52] <calamity> torrent isn't even connecting
[04:52] <calamity> direct dl is est. at a day or two.
[04:52] <thunkee> studentz: hopefully is was killall X :)
[04:52] <FrozenFire> calamity: The torrent might require that you configure port forwarding on your router.
[04:52] <pksadiq> Meiam: I said lsusb  , not lsmod
[04:53] <studentz> thunkee :x:121
[04:53] <FrozenFire> calamity: As for direct download, I tend to get good rates on it.
[04:53] <borikenmedia-wls> [#ubuntu] k-litic
[04:53] <bazhang> borikenmedia-wls, pardon?
[04:53] <calamity> I have no issues witth other downloads, torrent or otherwise. I was more wondering if anyone knew of a possible server issue?
[04:53] <pfifo> calamity, download the 10.10 minimal install and then use it to install base system, then once installed issue 'sudo apt-get install xubuntu-desktop'
[04:54] <calamity> good idea :)
[04:54] <calamity> Where would I get the minimal install?
[04:54] <FrozenFire> calamity: It could be the mirror you're using ;)
[04:54] <bazhang> !minimal > calamity
[04:54] <Meiam> pksadiq: Sorry http://paste.ubuntu.com/536946/plain/
[04:55] <consoleart> pfifo: here is the pastebin http://pastebin.com/fwscnWjm
[04:55] <ChaoRhi> !minimal > ChaoRhi
[04:55] <pfifo> calamity, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/MinimalCD
[04:55] <FrozenFire> bazhang: That seems like a roundabout way.
[04:55] <consoleart> pfifo: i tried modprobe i915 and start x...it did not start...it showed up the same error...no screens foudn etc.,
[04:55] <FrozenFire> It's more likely that he's simply downloading from a poor mirror.
[04:55] <FrozenFire> Selecting a faster mirror is the preferable solution.
[04:56] <bazhang> FrozenFire, I did not suggest it, he asked for the minimal link
[04:56] <Whacka> calamity: I used to use Xubuntu, it's not as well supported as the others and lacks a lot of features, I switched to regular Ubuntu with no compositing and it worked about as fast.
[04:56] <calamity> woah. nevermind. the torrent just fixed itself...
[04:56] <calamity> haha
[04:56] <pksadiq> Meiam: try disconnecting and reconnecting the phone and check the dmesg again, any way, it's not connected now
[04:56] <calamity> Whacka, well I'm mostly just needing internet access.
[04:57] <thunkee> studentz: just a test, type your login name behind like in other lines before, you can use nano /etc/group as editor
[04:57] <tgp1994> Hi everyone. I'm on Ubuntu 10.04. I'm trying to install Nvidia drivers the "official" way (https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto/Nvidia), however, in the Hardware Drivers program, no options are available for installation. Can anyone help? (P.S. I have a NVIDIA GeForce FX5500)
[04:57] <Meiam> pksadiq: ya I know ...that is the problem I think it is this /media/phone that is still out there it wont let me unmount it.
[04:58] <Whacka> calamity, Try checking if your ISP has an FTP server, they often have linux ISOs there.
[04:58] <Krishnandu> tgp1994, Try installing it from Ubuntu itself, System > Admin > Hardware Drivers
[04:58] <tgp1994> Krishnandu: That's what I said I was trying to do :\
[04:59] <Krishnandu> tgp1994, If no drivers are listed there, then probably it doesn't have the drivers for your card
[04:59] <tgp1994> Krishnandu: There were, before I uninstalled the drivers, (in an attempt to reinstall them)
[05:00] <StrangeCharm> how can i change the links in the 'communication' menu in the system tray (the one that launches empathy)? i want to change the command that launches empathy to something else.
[05:00] <borikenmedia-wls> lol
[05:00] <consoleart> pfifo: did you get my pastebin ?
[05:00] <borikenmedia-wls>  /
[05:00] <breadcrumb> hi
[05:00] <borikenmedia-wls> lol
[05:00] <bazhang> borikenmedia-wls, stop that please
[05:00] <Krishnandu> tgp1994, Well, I'm not on ubuntu right now, but I think there is an option for checking for drivers, it'll find if any drivers available automatically
[05:00] <Meiam> pksadiq: look here is dmesg http://paste.ubuntu.com/536947/plain/
[05:00] <borikenmedia-wls> as?
[05:00] <pksadiq> Meiam: the path /media/phone has mounted nothing, but it's just a folder created manually, you remove it by sudo rm -R /media/phone
[05:00] <tgp1994> Krishnandu: I'll look for that, thanks.
[05:01] <bazhang> borikenmedia-wls, stop with the random nonsense please
[05:01] <FishFace> tgp1994: Thos drivers should be around. I used that card only till recently. How about just going to the Update manager itself - not hardware updates. See if that flys.
[05:01] <Krishnandu> tgp1994, :)
[05:01] <pfifo> consoleart, ok im not seeing any modules that are not getting loading and i915 is there, it looks like this problem is beyond me. For future reference, never ever ever update your system, they will ALWAYS break stuff, even the critical security updates should be ignored.
[05:01] <borikenmedia-wls> :(
[05:01] <Aeronius> Hey, how do you install Ubuntu with a 1GB thumb drive?
[05:01] <bazhang> Aeronius, using unetbootin
[05:01] <pksadiq> Meiam: again pastebin dmesg, if ther is changes
[05:01] <txt23> Hey guys can someone check your download speeds on my server http://www.gujaratisuvichar.com/ubuntu-10.10-server-i386.iso
[05:01] <tgp1994> FishFace: The update manager? I should mention that I'm on mint 9 right now. The only reason I'm not in their support room is because there weren't many people around to help :\
[05:01] <FrozenFire> borikenmedia-wls: This is a support channel. Did you have a support question?
[05:02] <borikenmedia-wls> for?
[05:02] <bazhang> borikenmedia-wls, for Ubuntu
[05:02] <consoleart> pfifo: so what do you suggest for me...can i install x once again...if yes the please give me any pointers ///thnx
[05:02] <calamity> okay this thing is so old the graphical install isn't working
[05:02] <Krishnandu> Aeronius, In windows use Unetbootin to create Live USB and in Ubuntu there is ubuntu disc creator
[05:02] <borikenmedia-wls> jeje
[05:02] <borikenmedia-wls> letme see
[05:02] <calamity> Is there a way to use the old sttyle install?
[05:02] <tgp1994> FishFace: I don't seem to have any updates at the moment. Any other ideas?
[05:02] <studentz> thunkee I log out and in several times here is the output pam_succes_if(gdm:auth): requirements "user ingroup nopasswd login" not met by user "myname"
[05:03] <Aeronius> I'm using the USB disk creator, but it says 1GB is too small
[05:03] <wastrel> this is the ubuntu channel
[05:03] <Aeronius> doesn't make sense
[05:03] <FishFace> tgp1994: Sorry bud. Not for Mint
[05:03] <pfifo> consoleart, format your harddrive and  reinstall ubuntu from CD. Theres about 50 packages related to Xorg and will take ages to reinstall with no guarentee that it will even work, so just start fresh
[05:03] <bazhang> Aeronius, in ubuntu? unetbootin is in the repos
[05:03] <studentz> thunkee pam_sm_authenticate: Called
[05:03] <brophat> memtest results "error: too small lower memory (0x991007 > 0x96c00)" is this a problem?
[05:03] <tgp1994> FishFace: Pretty much the same as ubuntu, are you sure you don't have any other ideas?
[05:04] <Krishnandu> Aeronius, No idea, I created ubuntu live usb many times with my 1GB pen drive
[05:04] <wastrel> sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop
[05:04] <wastrel> ^^^ pfifo consoleart
[05:04] <studentz> thunkee pam_sm_authenticate: username = [myname]
[05:04] <Aeronius> ok, using unetbootin?
[05:04] <bazhang> Aeronius, yep, should do
[05:04] <Meiam> pksadiq: sudo rm -R /media/phone
[05:04] <studentz> thunkee Passphrase file wrapped
[05:04] <Krishnandu> Aeronius, used unetbootin from windows too, never got such like 1GB is too small
[05:04] <consoleart> pfifo: thanks
[05:04] <FishFace> tgp1994: Sorry. None :(
[05:04] <Meiam> pksadiq: http://paste.ubuntu.com/536948/plain/
[05:05] <pfifo> wastrel, that will not uninstall and then reinstall X
[05:05] <tgp1994> FishFace: Alright, thanks anyways.
[05:05] <Aeronius> sudo apt-get it or in the software center?
[05:05] <consoleart> wastrel: is it for installing desktop again ?
[05:05] <bazhang> Aeronius, what version of ubuntu
[05:05] <studentz> thunkee  Error attempting to add filename encryption key to user session keyring: rc = [1]
[05:05] <Aeronius> ok, it says I have it in the software center, I have 9.10, I want to install 10.10 on my laptop that's coming soon
[05:06] <Aeronius> run it from a command line?
[05:06] <bazhang> Aeronius, sudo apt-get install unetbootin
[05:06] <consoleart> wastrel it gives out an error...
[05:06] <studentz> thunkee pam_unix(gdm:session): session opened for user myname by (uid=0)
[05:06] <Aeronius> I got it
[05:07] <Aeronius> now what?
[05:07] <consoleart> Not supported low-power chip with PCI id 14e4:4315!
[05:07] <consoleart> Aborting.
[05:07] <tgp1994> Krishnandu: When you mentioned searching for drivers, I think you were indicating the Appearance customizer? When trying to enable effects, it will search for drivers, but then it tells me that it could not enable the effects.
[05:07] <Aeronius> ran it from a command line
[05:07] <Krishnandu> Aeronius, Now start unetbootin from menu
[05:07] <studentz> thunkee pam_ck_connector(gdm:session): nox11 mode, ignoring PAM_TTY :0
[05:07] <Krishnandu> tgp1994, No no, from hardware drivers in the menu
[05:07] <Aeronius> I did it from the command line instead, got a window called UNetbootin
[05:08] <tgp1994> Krishnandu: I don't have any menus there :(
[05:08] <studentz> thunkee pam_unix (gdm:session) : session closed for user myname
[05:08] <studentz> thunkee that is all
[05:08] <Krishnandu> Aeronius, Ya now use that to create live usb
[05:08] <Krishnandu> tgp1994, No idea then, wait and see what other member replies
[05:08] <noobie25> can someone tell me how ti get my background process to the front again?  fg %id says "no such job"
[05:08] <tgp1994> Krishnandu: Alright, thanks.
[05:08] <Aeronius> Wait, when I select Ubuntu as the distribution, the latest it gives me is 9.04_Live
[05:08] <tgp1994> I guess I'm going to have to return, the appearance customizer kind of crashed gnome.
[05:09] <Krishnandu> tgp1994, Are you sure there is nothing like "Search for hardware drivers"??
[05:09] <bazhang> Aeronius, you'll need the 10.10 iso
[05:09] <Krishnandu> Aeronius, use the ISO that you already have instead
[05:09] <tgp1994> Krishnandu: Correct. It seemed like it was trying to search when I started it up, although I'm assuming that failed.
[05:09] <Aeronius> ok, select diskimage, ISO, 10.10 64
[05:09] <Krishnandu> tgp1994, Well, that seems to be a different problem
[05:09] <calamity> hrm. safe-graphics mode might work?
[05:10] <Krishnandu> Aeronius, Ahh, you are using x86_64?? Then I guess 1GB is really small for that
[05:10] <deww> noobie25: how did you send it to the background?
[05:10] <Krishnandu> Aeronius, Not sure though, confirm from bazhang
[05:10] <bazhang> Krishnandu, no it wont
[05:10] <noobie25> deww: i think it went to the background automattically, when i loss connection using ssh.
[05:11] <Krishnandu> bazhang, Okies, but never faced 1GB is too small from ubuntu-disc-creator
[05:11] <noobie25> deww: Status is "S"   i think this is 'suspended' right?
[05:11] <deww> noobie25: nope... type "jobs" to see if it's in the bg
[05:11] <bazhang> Krishnandu, nor have I using unetbootin
[05:11] <thunkee> studentz: is your login name than 9 chars?
[05:11] <thunkee> studentz: longer
[05:11] <Aeronius> bazhang: it says no drive found, reformat as fat32
[05:12] <noobie25> deww:  'jobs'  just gives me back the prompt.
[05:12] <wastrel> noobie25: did you nohup it
[05:12] <noobie25> wastrel:  i'm not sure what nohup is...
[05:12] <Krishnandu> bazhang, Ya neither I, used unetbootin too, lets see what happened
[05:12] <bazhang> Aeronius, be sure to carefully identify the usb stick
[05:12] <wastrel> if the original controlling terminal is gone, you can't get the proc back in the foreground
[05:12] <Aeronius> Yeah, how do I do that?
[05:12] <wastrel> next time use screen
[05:12] <studentz> Thunkee yes it longer than 9 chars and it has digits alphanums n caps
[05:13] <Aeronius> looks like I could easily bork my system real good like this...
[05:13] <Aeronius> I clicked show all drives (Use with Care)
[05:13] <pksadiq> Meiam: I think this is a bug => "usb-storage: waiting for device to settle before scanning",
[05:13] <Krishnandu> Aeronius, Now select the usb drive you can to use
[05:13] <thunkee> studentz: first remove your login from /etc/group nopasswdlogin group
[05:13] <Krishnandu> Aeronius, Carefully, selecting wrong drive will erase all data from that
[05:14] <deww> noobie25: what exactly were you running? jobs don't send themselves to the background automatically?
[05:14] <pksadiq> Meiam: or you haven't plugged in the cable completly
[05:14] <noobie25> wastrel:  aftrer reading wiki,  no i didn't not start the process using nohup.   However, i can see it still as a running process with a Status of "S"
[05:14] <Aeronius> /dev/sda1, shm, etc...
[05:14] <Krishnandu> Aeronius, You can also refer to Ubuntu Downoad page, there is a tutorial on how to use unetbootin
[05:14] <studentz> thunkee sry my login is only 5 char
[05:14] <jschall> is there a PPA to install linux 2.6.36 and does it break anything?
[05:14] <thunkee> studentz: check if home dir is correct ls -l /home
[05:14] <Aeronius> it goes to like 7, and I don't know which is the usb
[05:14] <studentz> thunkee my paswd is the longer one
[05:14] <shin_> hmm where do i go if i have dumb newbie questions?
[05:15] <thunkee> studentz: not your passwd i asked for login name
[05:15] <nit-wit> Aeronius, open gparted and see what the usb is listed as
[05:15] <wastrel> noobie25: like i said, you can't reattach to the process if the original controlling terminal is gone.  next time use screen :/
[05:15] <bazhang> shin_, likely not dumb, just ask here
[05:15] <Krishnandu> Aeronius, use mount command in terminal to verify that
[05:15] <noobie25> deww: it was an application i wrote generating twin primes that i have been running for 7 hours.  I accidently loss connection, but i think it is still running.
[05:15] <studentz> thunkee it is correct
[05:16] <shin_> i got myself a new terminal using cntl+alt+f2, and i can't get back into xwindows since i'm not root and have no display????
[05:16] <tgp1994> Does anyone else happen to know why jockey-gtk (Hardware Drivers) cannot detect my nvidia drivers for my Geforce FX 5500?
[05:16] <Aeronius> installing gparted
[05:16] <noobie25> wastrel:  i'm not sure how to use screen...
[05:16] <deww> noobie25: you may want to restart this effort :P
[05:16] <shin_> so was stuck at command prompt
[05:16] <bazhang> shin_, tried ctrl alt f7?
[05:16] <nit-wit> Aeronius,  it is your best friend in so many ways
[05:16] <Krishnandu> shin_, alt+ctrl + f7 or f8(if you've logged out)
[05:17] <Aeronius> taking a while to install
[05:17] <nit-wit> Aeronius,  what is the OS your using
[05:17] <deww> noobie25: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Screen
[05:17] <Aeronius> ubuntu 9.10
[05:17] <shin_> :o
[05:18] <nit-wit> Aeronius,  cool
[05:18]  * shin_ googles up relevent stuff
[05:18] <echolist> hello, i have a little problem to connect a modem with ubuntu
[05:18] <Aeronius> sudo gparted
[05:18] <wastrel> noobie25: screen lets you detach and reattach to a terminal. won't help in this case but in the future, if you're running jobs remotely, start screen on the remote system so if your connection fails you can reattach
[05:18] <noobie25> deww:  thanks
[05:18] <deww> noobie25: besides from figuring out how to reattach / detach from screen, everything else is the same as you would without running screen
[05:18] <noobie25> wastrel:  thanks
[05:18] <nit-wit> Aeronius, it is in the menu other wise it is gksudo gparted
[05:18] <Aeronius> OK, my USB isn't even showing on gparted
[05:19] <nit-wit> Aeronius,  there is a drop down top right corner
[05:19] <Aeronius> wait, it's /sdb1

[05:20] <Krishnandu> Aeronius, use mount in terminal if you are not sure
[05:20] <Aeronius> ok, should I try Unetbootin on sdb now?
[05:20] <nit-wit> Aeronius, if that is correct just make sure your pointed at that partition not sdb but sdb1

[05:21] <bazhang> ghost123, ubuntu related somehow?
[05:21] <Aeronius> ok, shall I do it?
[05:21] <Krishnandu> Aeronius, yes
[05:21] <Aeronius> will it basically do the same thing as making an install cd?
[05:21] <bananafish> I need help fixing my grub2

[05:22] <Aeronius> because that's what I want
[05:22] <Krishnandu> Aeronius, Yes
[05:22] <Aeronius> ok

[05:22] <bazhang> bananafish, read the grub2 wiki yet?
[05:22] <ghost123> can someone tell how i can tether my ipod touch with my puppy linux laptop
[05:22] <Krishnandu> !ask | bananafish
[05:22] <bazhang> ghost123, ask in the puppy support channel
[05:22] <Aeronius> SAYS I have to mount to a mountpoint!
[05:22] <bananafish> would it have anything on windows disappearing, ive gone through about 3 forum posts and no success
[05:22] <Krishnandu> bananafish, What's the issue??
[05:22] <bananafish> ok
[05:23] <Krishnandu> bananafish, Read the wiki first as bazhang said
[05:23] <bazhang> bananafish, what about sudo update-grub ?
[05:23] <bananafish> ran a bunch of updates restarted and windows isn't showing up in grub, I knew how to edit the menu.lst in grub but I cant get grub2 to do anything
[05:23] <bananafish> yes I have tried that
[05:24] <Aeronius> why won't it automatically mount?
[05:24] <Krishnandu> bananafish, even update-grub fails??
[05:24] <Krishnandu> to identify windows??
[05:24] <Krishnandu> Aeronius, What??
[05:24] <nit-wit> Aeronius, your using unetbootin right you know the device sig just close it and try again, I think the thumb has to be mounted
[05:24] <bananafish> yes it doesnt even see that it is there
[05:25] <Aeronius> should I reboot?
[05:25] <bananafish> but when i run fdisk i can see the partition is fine
[05:25] <Aeronius> or give command to mount?
[05:25] <salil> Ubuntu initially boots into 80x24 more but changes over to something around 130x40 text mode.. How do I prevent this?
[05:25] <Edwin_ach> hi everybody, i have a problem trying to write (p.e. create a single text file) inside a directory where i have rwx permission and i am root. What could be wrong... filesystem, permissions, attributes (has no attributes set)? some idea, friends? 0_0
[05:25] <nit-wit> Aeronius, look in computer and mount the thumb
[05:25] <Krishnandu> Aeronius, unetbootin process completed??
[05:25] <Aeronius> no, said I had to mount
[05:25] <Aeronius> so how do I mount it?
[05:26] <Meiam> pksadiq: I dont think it is a bug or cable cus remember this phone works on other computer. Ubumtu and windows 7 with the cable I am using.
[05:26] <abhijain> hello
[05:26] <nit-wit> Aeronius, places computer mount the thumb
[05:26] <bananafish> I'm not getting any errors or anything, that's why I am so confused
[05:26] <abhijain> can anybody tell me how can i apply for free ubuntu 10.10 cds
[05:26] <salil> Ubuntu initially boots into 80x24 more but changes over to something around 130x40 text mode.. How do I prevent this?
[05:26] <rww> !shipit | abhijain
[05:26] <nit-wit> abhijain, on the main ubuntu site
[05:26] <Mr_G> hey I have installed grub2, but my pc does not display the grub boot screen
[05:26] <abhijain> rww: thanx
[05:27] <Krishnandu> bananafish, Looks like windows bootloader got corrupted(may be)
[05:27] <rww> Mr_G: hold down shift when your computer starts booting
[05:27] <abhijain> rww: and how can i get repositories
[05:27] <bananafish> When grub loads Win7 does it look to that tiny 100mb partition windows makes
[05:27] <rww> abhijain: I'm not sure what you're asking
[05:27] <Mr_G> rww:k n if I want it to be default?
[05:27] <Krishnandu> abhijain, What's your goal??
[05:27] <bananafish> or the actual windows partition
[05:27] <arvind_khadri> abhijain, the DVD has the repo
[05:28] <salil> Ubuntu initially boots into 80x24 more but changes over to something around 130x40 text mode.. How do I prevent this?
[05:28] <FishFace> rww: Sounds like he will install on a non-internet machine
[05:28] <Krishnandu> bananafish, Yes
[05:28] <Aeronius> I'm going to use gparted to format it as fat 32
[05:28] <arvind_khadri> !repeat | salil
[05:28] <pksadiq> Aeronius: if through terminal, you can mount by            sudo mkdir /media/usb && sudo mount /dev/sdb1 /media/usb/
[05:28] <bananafish> ok thanksa
[05:28] <studentz> thunkee another thing that comes to my memory is this patch that applied yesterday   https://github.com/sloshy/cspeed
[05:28] <Aeronius> ok?
[05:28] <bananafish> *thanks
[05:28] <salil> :(
[05:28] <Aeronius> It looks unformated in gparted
[05:28] <nit-wit> Aeronius, yes then mount it in places-computer open unetbootin and load it
[05:29] <abhijain> arvind_khadri: so how can i get
[05:29] <Aeronius> After copying the contents to my hard drive, I selected all and deleted (with the delete key)
[05:29] <arvind_khadri> abhijain, you can download it from http://www.ubuntu.com
[05:29] <Aeronius> it was pretty fast delete, almost scary how quickly one can lose data
[05:29] <Krishnandu> Aeronius, God knows what are you doing, it's that simple, just plug in your usb, open unetbootin, choose the pendrive and iso and start the process
[05:29] <ndxtg> could anyone explain me how Tx-power affect wireless connection? I'm having wifi issue on Ubuntu 10.10 AR5001
[05:29] <Ashtray777> fdfadfdf
[05:29] <Aeronius> but now it appears unformatted
[05:29] <Aeronius> so I'll format it as fat32
[05:29] <bazhang> Ashtray777, english please
[05:29] <rww> Mr_G: sudo nano /etc/default/grub, put a # in front of the GRUB_HIDDEN_TIMEOUT line, and edit or add the GRUB_TIMEOUT line to say GRUB_TIMEOUT=10 (to show the menu for 10 seconds) or GRUB_TIMEOUT=-1 (to display until you make a selection)
[05:29] <nit-wit> Krishnandu, hallelujah
[05:30] <rww> Mr_G: Then, save and run sudo update-grub
[05:30] <abhijain> arvind_khadri: thanx
[05:30] <pksadiq> Aeronius: i think if you just deleted the files/folders using delete button, it will be went to trash
[05:30] <Krishnandu> Aeronius, unetbootin will automatically format it for you
[05:30] <arvind_khadri> abhijain, np :)
[05:30] <Krishnandu> nit-wit, what??
[05:30] <Mr_G> rww: Thank u I will try n get back :-)
[05:30] <Aeronius> pksadiq: since it's a thumbdrive, I don't think so
[05:31] <pksadiq> Aeronius: ,  I though it's hdd, sorry
[05:31] <pksadiq> thought*
[05:31] <nit-wit> Krishnandu, you said only God knows just giving you a  hallelujah
[05:31] <FishFace> hah!
[05:31] <Krishnandu> :P
[05:32] <Krishnandu> nit-wit, I don't know why would he need mount?? Ubuntu does that automatically, and that even in the middle of copying process
[05:32] <nit-wit> and I'm a agnostic
[05:32] <Aeronius> Ubuntu isn't doing it right now
[05:32] <Aeronius> so how do I mount it?>?
[05:33] <Krishnandu> Aeronius, did you followed what nit-wit and pksadiq said??
[05:33] <krunal> what do i do if my batttery indicator is showing wrong
[05:33] <krunal> !battery
[05:34] <Aeronius> it doesn't show up in Computer to mount
[05:34] <Krishnandu> Aeronius, unplug it and plug it again
[05:35] <Aeronius> unplugged
[05:35] <Aeronius> plugged
[05:35] <Aeronius> now what?
[05:35] <Krishnandu> now it's recognized??
[05:36] <Krishnandu> mounted automatically??
[05:36] <Aeronius> nope, it's like it's not there, probably because I deleted the contents from nautilus?
[05:37] <Krishnandu> Aeronius, No not the contents, the usb
[05:37] <noobie25> deww:  i installed screen, but cannot attach to this process using another terminal:     screen -r pid
[05:37] <Aeronius> the USB isn't showing up
[05:37] <Krishnandu> Aeronius, if not follow what pqsadiq said pksadiq> Aeronius: if through terminal, you can mount by            sudo mkdir /media/usb && sudo mount /dev/sdb1 /media/usb/
[05:37] <Aeronius> on the command line, I typed mount /dev/sdb
[05:37] <BladeMcCool> i think i installed tesseract from apt-get. any way to find out what version it was/is?
[05:37] <Aeronius> it says can't find
[05:37] <wastrel> noobie25: you cannot attach to a process that has lost its controlling terminal
[05:37] <Aeronius> oh
[05:38] <Krishnandu> Aeronius, follow what he already said
[05:38] <wastrel> noobie25: screen allows you to start a process, detach and reattach - but the process has to have been started from within screen
[05:39] <noobie25> wastrel: i ran screen, and restarted the process.   shoudln't i be able to attach to this screen using another terminal?

[05:56] <dangerous> Is there an equivalent to Microsoft Remote Desktop on Ubuntu?  I am not talking about VNC, which basically just lets you see the local screen and use your keyboard and mouse, rather than giving you a proper remote login.  Remote Desktop is much more responsive than VNC.

[06:07] <share> rww: tks :)
[06:08] <rww> graphitemaster: You probably ticked the checkbox saying to install non-free codecs and drivers during installation.
[06:08] <graphitemaster> way to go, good news the flashplayer that ships with kubuntu is well junk since it does not play my audio >.>
[06:08] <graphitemaster> rww: okay how to remove it, whats the package name?

[06:12] <graphitemaster> and youtube HTML5 is horrible
[06:12] <primedeath> I agree.
[06:12] <primedeath> YouFail's HTML5 is half-assed.
[06:13] <thunkee> studentz: simply on tty1 type passwd be sure prompt is not #
[06:13] <graphitemaster> not to mention other sites with "things children should not watch and are not really appropriate for this channel" use flash
[06:13] <primedeath> I have a question.. More of a VirtualBox question, but I was wondering if it was capable of using an existing partition?

[06:19] <Mr_G> fresh install
[06:20] <FishFace> Mr_G: I don't have a positive answer, but is the onboard audio disabled in your bios? Guessing here.
[06:21] <Mr_G> FishFace: I m not sure but the speakers work fine...........if it was disabled wudnt the speakers not work as well?
[06:22] <thunkee> studentz: ok im sorry at this point im out ... your problem is a misconfiguration in pam.auth you need authentication expert ... there are many posts with the same thing caused ba differnt packages ... ask for "user ingroup nopasswdlogin not met by user ..."

[06:23] <FishFace> Mr_G: So you have 2 audio outputs going then. But one does not work.
[06:23] <Mr_G> yes
[06:23] <brophat> does that mean something is wrong with my wireless in ubuntu/
[06:24] <brophat> and i do notice it is kind of flaky it works for a min or two then stops for a couple mins etc...

[06:34] <eagles0513875> mkquist: that one has win 7 starter on it :-/
[06:34] <eagles0513875> its quite fast but i get enough of windows on my desktop
[06:35] <mkquist> eagles0513875: my hp has win 7 on it too.  dual boot
[06:35] <eagles0513875> and for what im doing i can live with windows just on my desktop
[06:35] <eagles0513875> mkquist: nice thing is i can live with out seven and stay with ubuntu
[06:35] <eagles0513875> only need windows for gaming which i have a 500gb dedicated to it and gaming
[06:35] <mkquist> eagles0513875: usually just run the linux version.  hell, I can even use xp on virtualbox too, still runs fine, kinda funny
[06:36] <mkquist> eagles0513875: to be able to do all that on a 'netbook'
[06:36] <eagles0513875> mkquist: ya suprised apple hasnt tried to infiltrate the netbook market
[06:36] <mkquist> eagles0513875: youll be fine either way
[06:37] <eagles0513875> thanks :)
[06:37] <mkquist> eagles0513875: yeah, not sure what thats about... except the dell mini runs osx just find.  So I guess they just decided to let people do that
[06:37] <mkquist> eagles0513875: for like a third of the price of the air
[06:38] <blackshell> I'm running ubuntu on my dual boot system,one of my windows drive isn't writable,,how do i change that
[06:38] <eagles0513875> mkquist: the air imho is a fancy gadget for the CEOS to boast they use a mc
[06:38] <eagles0513875> mac
[06:38] <mkquist> eagles0513875: well, it is slick
[06:39] <eagles0513875> agreed
[06:39] <primedeath> Blackshell, I had that problem when I first formatted a drive. I went to the drive, right clicked it and went to properties then changed the permissions.
[06:39] <mkquist> eagles0513875: but it also cost, what, a cool thousand..
[06:39] <eagles0513875> but imho the size of solid state drives and what you get size wise doesnt justify the cost
[06:39] <eagles0513875> or the need to spend the money
[06:39] <mkquist> eagles0513875: so you can get a $200 netbook, load linux and get sooo close
[06:39] <eagles0513875> im on a 13 inch macbook pro which i got for 1,200 which gets the job done
[06:39] <eagles0513875> did 2 upgrades on it and it purrs like  a kitten
[06:39] <primedeath> Lol.
[06:40] <blackshell> it says the permissions of this drive cant be detected,t says the same for the drive which is writable
[06:40] <eagles0513875> couldnt have asked for anything better besides more then 2 usb slots
[06:40] <primedeath> 1,200 for a 13inch computer.
[06:40]  * primedeath laughs hysterically.
[06:40] <eagles0513875> primedeath:  all the laptops i have had have been in about this range
[06:40] <ceaze> hi ALL
[06:40] <mkquist> primedeath: eagles0513875 or $200 for a 10", gets real close
[06:40] <eagles0513875> the 999 to 1,200 USD range
[06:40] <bilalakhtar> !lol | primedeath
[06:40] <eagles0513875> lol BiDOrD
[06:40] <eagles0513875> i meant bilalakhtar
[06:40] <ceaze> Can you tell me some Nice Roms of MAME??
[06:41] <bilalakhtar> eagles0513875: not funny
[06:41] <mkquist> primedeath: oh my, you have incurred the wrath of ubottu...
[06:41] <primedeath> I don't use it on a regular basis. :]
[06:41] <eagles0513875> i dont either
[06:41] <bilalakhtar> just a warning
[06:41] <eagles0513875> ok
[06:41] <ceaze> Anyone Can you tell me some NICE Game ROMS in MAME??????
[06:42]  * primedeath rolls his eyes. 
[06:42] <mkquist> lol?
[06:42] <kortsi> hi - I just installed 10.04.1 server 64-bit in a QEMU/KVM virtual machine - after installing all updates (kernel 2.6.32-26-server now) I can not get it to start up, last kernel line says "EDD information not available." - after that, it is stuck. has anybody any ideas? the same happens in rescue mode as well
[06:42] <mkquist> joking...
[06:43] <primedeath> bilalakhtar must have a script to detect it. Heh.
[06:44] <mkquist> lolscript
[06:44] <ceaze> Anyone Can you tell me some NICE Game ROMS in MAME?????
[06:44] <primedeath> I mean, he came out of nowhere with it.
[06:44] <mkquist> ceaze: you do know this is an ubuntu channel right?
[06:45] <mkquist> ceaze: and google def works for ROMS
[06:45] <eagles0513875> !patience | ceaze
[06:45] <eagles0513875> kortsi: quite dead in here. i have only started experimenting wiht it on kubuntu. quick question does your cpu support hardware virtualization, that could be the cause of your error
[06:45] <blackshell> I'm running ubuntu on my dual boot system,one of my windows drive isn't writable,,how do i change that?
[06:45] <blackshell> anyone
[06:45] <blackshell> please
[06:45] <ceaze> mkquist, so I am talking about mame installed in ubuntu
[06:45] <loo0oola> hi , where can i get some sexy themes for ubuntu
[06:45] <Primedeath> Right click the drive and change permissions?
[06:45] <mkquist> ceaze: same answer
[06:45] <Primedeath> I had to do that on a newly formatted NTFS Drive.
[06:45] <ubuntunoob> how do i send my vsftpd log to another file location? currently I have "vsftpd_log_file=/home/user/desktop/vsftpd.log" and no file shows up in that directory. I looked at files in /var/log/vsftpd.* and there are some, but the last entry was from a few days ago and I have used it since then
[06:45] <magicjoe> ANYONE! if i just updated to Lucid, and things aren't working like they should....is there a way to simply go back to the way things were before this update messed everything up? PLEASE SAY YES, AND PLEASE HELP ME DO IT
[06:45] <kortsi> eagles0513875: yes, its one of the newer Opterons which does support hardware virtualization
[06:46] <ubuntunoob> i tried asking in #vsftpd but it's pretty quiet in there
[06:46] <ceaze> mkquist, OK, but i still feel some one will have an answer here
[06:46] <Insurance> @loo0oola Go to gnome-look.org and look for orta. Its a nice theme.
[06:46] <mkquist> loo0oola: gnomelook.org
[06:46] <eagles0513875> kortsi: i didnt get any erorr like that mine works fine with the occasional popup error about a device not being attached
[06:46] <eagles0513875> kortsi: did you try asking in kvm
[06:46] <kortsi> eagles0513875: earlier line says "powernow-k8: Processor cpuid 623 not supported"
[06:47] <eagles0513875> let me check something kortsi
[06:47] <kortsi> eagles0513875: nope, maybe I should go ask them
[06:47] <kortsi> eagles0513875: the thing is, I had this running so I could install updates and all
[06:48] <eagles0513875> kortsi: go ask in there they could probably shed some light if its a known bug or otherwise
[06:48] <kortsi> eagles0513875: all right ill do that, thanks
[06:48] <Froodle> I'm planning to replace my system with a new one from parts.  Do I have to worry about multi-core processing support?
[06:48] <magicjoe> i thought updates were a GOOD thing.
[06:48] <eagles0513875> kortsi: isnt the powernow-k8 a powermanagement feature of amd's
[06:48] <KB1JWQ> Froodle: Not from the OS standpoint, no.
[06:49] <mkquist> magicjoe: just my opinion, but I dont like the 'upgrade' path, takes too long and too many issues.  IMHO just easier to install fresh, newer version, backing up, from what I understand is not easy
[06:49] <kortsi> eagles0513875: yes I guess it is - perhaps there's a way to disable it...
[06:49] <eagles0513875> kortsi: i wouldnt recommend it
[06:49] <Rakko> If I install Ubuntu on another hard drive in addition to my current one, and copy the existing /etc over to the new one, should things just work, apart from changing a few disk names in fstab?
[06:49] <eagles0513875> cuz if your cpu starts over heating then youll get to see things melt
[06:50] <Some_ux> hi
[06:50] <magicjoe> mkquist: so there is no "rollback to karmic" script out there, or even an option in synaptic for this? no safeguard from bugs in the update? you update, and its all or nothing?
[06:51] <mkquist> magicjoe: not that Im aware of
[06:51] <Primedeath> eagles0513875: CPU's have internal thermal sensors.. Nothing will melt. =-p
[06:51] <Hex00010> hey guys i got a quick question im running another monitor on my laptop and im using my big monitor ( conencted to my laptop) to browse stuff what is the command to  do so on ubuntu?
[06:51] <Froodle> KB1JWQ, so I won't have do anything special during installation?
[06:51] <ubuntunoob> why do I get  "restart: unknown instance:" when trying to 'sudo restart vsftpd'?
[06:51] <mkquist> magicjoe: really, I've just found it easier to install new and reinstall software
[06:51] <eagles0513875> Primedeath: i know care to explain what the amd powernow-k8 technology is
[06:51] <mkquist> magicjoe: saves a lot of headaches
[06:51] <Hex00010> Do i have to like mount it or something?
[06:51] <Some_ux> Ubuntu 10.04 server won't boot after install. I get a flashing cursor (no grub). Is that a known issue ?
[06:52] <eagles0513875> Some_ux: works fine for me after install
[06:52] <mkquist> magicjoe: lucid is solid
[06:52] <magicjoe> mkquist: that sounds like the stupidest thing i have ever heard of for an OS update. even a screen resolution change gives you the opportunity to accept or revert before its permanent. in case you change it to a non compatible one!
[06:52] <ceaze> Anyone knows some good mame roms??
[06:52] <magicjoe> i just updated to lucid. and it broke my compiz stuff.
[06:52] <ceaze> That work in ubuntu
[06:52] <mkquist> magicjoe: not gonna argue that, just found it easier to roll with it and install fresh
[06:52] <oldschool> does anyone know how to uninstall ubuntu 10.10 from a external hard drive
[06:53] <Some_ux> I will try to install ubuntu 10.10 server
[06:53] <Rakko> oldschool: reformat it
[06:53] <mkquist> magicjoe: I dont trust the 'update' path with ubuntu, never found it to work well
[06:53] <magicjoe> so id have to start all over, rebuild the cairo-dock from cmake, and then HOPE that my video card can work with it, since its not now,and re-enter all my settings....
[06:53] <Rakko> ceaze: MAME ROMs should work about the same anywhere
[06:53] <sgo11> hi, new to ubuntu, switched from opensuse. for ubuntu-desktop, why ubuntu recommends 32bit version? Is 64bit desktop safe to be used? opensuse and other linux recommend 64bit OS now. why ubuntu desktop still recommends 32bit? thanks.
[06:54] <mkquist> magicjoe: no rebuild cairo dock, just d/l it
[06:54] <Some_ux> I didn't have so many issues with 8.04, it was steady as a rock.
[06:54] <rww> sgo11: Yes, it works fine. The website recommends 32-bit so that people who don't know which type of processor they have aren't confused.
[06:54] <Rakko> I didn't know about that, sgo11, but 64-bit works very well for me
[06:54] <rww> sgo11: If you know 64-bit works, use 64-bit :)
[06:54] <Primedeath> rww explained it perfectly.
[06:54] <magicjoe> is there a POWERPC version of Lucid?
[06:54] <rww> !ppc | magicjoe
[06:54] <KB1JWQ> Froodle: Correct.
[06:54] <sgo11> rww, Rakko got it. thanks a lot for the reply. I will download 64bit desktop version then.
[06:54] <mkquist> magicjoe: honestly, I tried the update way once. took hours and broke things.  Just easier to install fresh.  Kind of like reinstalling, but with the new and improved version
[06:54] <jc> hello,when the terminal shows that no such variable,what should I do?/
[06:55] <magicjoe> lol
[06:55] <Rakko> jc: what variable? what are you trying to do?
[06:55] <ubuntunoob> why do I get  "restart: unknown instance:" when trying to 'sudo restart vsftpd'?
[06:55] <ceaze> Rakko, ok, but do you know some nice ones??
[06:55] <magicjoe> mkquist: so if its NOT finding my video card (cant enable visual effects in apperances) how do i know a fresh install will?
[06:56] <Some_ux> OK, I'm installing from a pendrive (I have no CDROM) and the installer fails because it says no CDROM ? what's up with that ?
[06:56] <magicjoe> and yeah i asked about p pc and it spit out an auto comment. but i am running karmic p pc now
[06:56] <oldschool> Rakko how would i do that i have windows xp on my internal hard drive and now that i have ubuntu install on that external hard drive in wont show up on my windows os
[06:56] <mkquist> magicjoe: might not, but ubuntu seems to improve with each new, at least long term support, release
[06:56] <Rakko> ceaze: nope, sorry
[06:57] <mkquist> magicjoe: what gfx are you using?
[06:57] <magicjoe> mkquist: how do i tell? i am running karmic pow pc
[06:57] <mkquist> magicjoe: im running ubuntu on four diff computers and it works well for me
[06:57] <mkquist> magicjoe: ?
[06:58] <rww> magicjoe: It didn't spit out an auto comment. I told it to tell you about that.
[06:58] <jc> Rakko, uwind
[06:58] <Rakko> oldschool: the drive doesn't show up at all in My Computer?
[06:58] <mkquist> magicjoe: radeon?
[06:58] <magicjoe> mkquist: yeah, i have it dual boot on this ibook g4, and my desktop. i love linux. not just for the compiz personalization, but that helps me like it
[06:58] <jc> Rakko, ncdump -v uwind,vwind -p 3 zigzag4.nc
[06:58] <jc> ncdump: uwind: No such variable
[06:58] <Some_ux> I mean, the installer loads, shows me the menu (which means it found the Pendrive perfectly well) then it complains that there is not CD ?
[06:58] <rww> assuming you meant ubottu.
[06:59] <Rakko> jc: sounds like a problem with either ncdump, or your invocation of it
[06:59] <mkquist> magicjoe: nvidia seems pretty solid, and come to thing of it, have a little media box uses radeon with no problems...
[06:59] <oldschool> Rakko no not no more after i install ubuntu on it the external hard drive
[06:59] <Rakko> !usb drive
[06:59] <oldschool> yes
[07:00] <Rakko> that's odd... I don't know how you would do it in windows
[07:00] <magicjoe> well, my karmic pow pc was doing great, and then i updated to the update manager suggested lucid upgrade....and it worked ok, but now i cannot enable the visual effects, which means, its not recognising my video card, and i have nvidia installed
[07:00] <Rakko> maybe using control panel->administrator tools->computer management->disk management
[07:00] <jc> Rakko, i don't think so
[07:01] <Rakko> Some_ux: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/FromUSBStick
[07:01] <Lonniebiz> My laptop's video card won't support me having both a vga and hdmi monitor
[07:01] <jc> Rakko, probably.I think I should read the manul more times
[07:01] <Lonniebiz> running at the same time.

[07:02] <Lonniebiz> Anyone know of a usb video card that will work on Ubuntu Linux?
[07:02] <mkquist> back to watching the boob tube... later all
[07:02] <booduklee> ---------------/etc/init.d/vsftpd restart
[07:02] <magicjoe> mkquist: thats why i hoped to just be able to roll back. but i guess i will just use my ppc karmic, and start from scratch. can i copy my ./config and /etc directories and paste them in a fresh install, then get the core packages that i had and that all work like it used to? the settings anyway?
[07:03] <Some_ux> Rakko thanks, will try
[07:03] <ubuntunoob> i've tried sudo /etc/init.d/vsftpd restart  and I get an error that says use 'sudo restart vsftpd' and i get an error that says "restart: unknown instance"

[07:14] <realeyes> hey guys
[07:14] <realeyes> I'm trying to use repo on 10.10 but it's saying it's not installed.
[07:15] <realeyes> sudo apt-get install repo doesn't work, either.
[07:15] <coz_> realeyes,  which repository?
[07:15] <realeyes> curl http://android.git.kernel.org/repo > ~/bin/repo
[07:15] <realeyes> repo init -u git://github.com/CyanogenMod/android.git -b froyo ?
[07:15] <realeyes> I really don't know what I'm doing, to tell the truth.
[07:16] <Lonniebiz> How do you submit a request for hard ware drivers in Linux?
[07:16] <realeyes> Those are the commands, not the repos, but... You get the picture, right? :P
[07:16] <Rakko> oldschool: what do you want to put on the drive? I don't remember exactly how the Windows part works, but you should be able to repartition it or reformat it from there -- if you want to totally replace Ubuntu
[07:16] <simplexio> realeyes: git init =

[07:20] <fleckenkorb> looking for help running ubuntu from a usb drive on an asus ee
[07:20] <coz_> realeyes,  and is it the partner repository that is not downloading?
[07:20] <realeyes> it says repo isn't a valid command
[07:20] <Quan-Time> ok.. ubuntu 10.04 23bit, asus laptop with gbit eth0.  I normally only use my wifi, but sometimes when i want to transfer big files (5gb) to and from my file server, i plug a cable in.  sometimes i get ~35mb/s which is about this hdd's max in this laptop, but sometimes it ONLY connects @ 10mb/s (10/100, not gbit), WHY is that.. its TOTALLY annoying.. ideas ?
[07:21] <_jesse_> fleckenkorb: did you run into an issue?
[07:21] <coz_> realeyes,  and you are following each line of commands   one at a time  with copy paste..yes?
[07:21] <realeyes> Yes.
[07:21] <realeyes> Maybe I should reboot?
[07:21] <fleckenkorb> it won't boot from the usb
[07:21] <booduklee> ----
[07:21] <DtatchD> I was helping someone install ubuntu and they selected show me how to boot off of cd and it began installation. Where does that install to?
[07:21] <_jesse_> fleckenkorb: you might need to change a setting in your BIOS then
[07:22] <fleckenkorb> did that
[07:22] <_jesse_> does it attempt to boot the USB and doesn't?
[07:22] <_jesse_> or does it just skip it?
[07:22] <fleckenkorb> seems to skip it
[07:22] <_jesse_> fleckenkorb: and it's definitely at the front of the boot order? that seems strange
[07:22] <realeyes> you need a bootloader on the USB
[07:23] <fleckenkorb> bootloader?
[07:23] <_jesse_> fleckenkorb: how did you create the USB image?
[07:23] <fleckenkorb> download
[07:23] <booduklee> why I can't send messges?
[07:23] <FappyJones> how do you get to your BIOS setting using Win7, im the one DtatchD was tying to help
[07:23] <_jesse_> fleckenkorb: lol and then what?
[07:23] <booduklee> sorry?
[07:24] <_jesse_> fleckenkorb: if you're on Ubuntu already just use the Strt-up Disk Creator; if you're on Windows checkout http://unetbootin.sourceforge.net/

[07:30] <fleckenkorb> thanks jesse!
[07:31] <simplexio> oldschool: and removeing grub from start if its on you mbr. use fix_mbr (fixmbr)? in windows. no signs of buntu or grub in system
[07:32] <Quan-Time> sl33k_: i up'd to 10.10 x64, i reinstalled back to 10.04 32bit..
[07:33] <Quan-Time> not worth it imo, too many issues whcih i cbf'd workin out.. 10.04 "works", so unless you have  a NEED to go up, be very wary..
[07:33] <realeyes> coz_ amazingly, I got it to work.
[07:34] <realeyes> Well see if it keeps working, though.
[07:34] <coz_> realeyes,  very cool  what did you do?
[07:35] <Kunalagon> where I can find kernel .config file?
[07:35] <realeyes> I just did various 'repo and 'init commands and read the errors, input the commands on the page in a different order and exchanged the git.address.git in various ways.
[07:35] <oldschool> simplexio am in the windows xp os disk management and when i right click on that hrad drive it has a option to delete partition would this work

[07:36] <sl33k_> Quan-Time: thanks, was going for the update, now i will not
[07:36] <realeyes> Aeronius: Sounds wicked.
[07:36] <Aeronius> dmesg | tail gave me some stuff, but no help

[07:39] <Altheas> Hello, is there anyone who could help me solve why ubuntu 10.04 wont install and just be stuck at loading? I already did md5sum and i did memory check and they both checked out and i have a Intel(R) Core(TM)2 Quad CPU    Q9550  @ 2.83GHz processor
[07:39] <Aeronius> should I try to reformat it?
[07:39] <fishscene>  Aeronius: What filesystem is on the drive? HFS+?
[07:39] <realeyes> define 'stuck at loading'
[07:39] <Aeronius> I'm glad I backed it up, FAT 32 is reported by fdisk
[07:39] <realeyes> it takes a LONG time to install
[07:40] <Altheas> it just stays at loading screen
[07:40] <Altheas> doesn't move
[07:40] <frank__> very good
[07:40] <realeyes> hm
[07:40] <realeyes> brb!
[07:40] <Aeronius> http://pastie.org/1327636
[07:41] <fishscene> Aeronius: I had that problem when my HFS+ partition had a bad superblock. The only way to fix it was to install hfsprog(?) and check the disk for errors
[07:42] <kosaidpo> hello guys
[07:42] <Aeronius> http://pastie.org/1327638
[07:42] <kosaidpo> icant open up url's in hotot any idea why
[07:43] <Aeronius> It's just a thumbdrive
[07:43] <Aeronius> I backed it up before deleting the contents, (yay) should I just try to reformat it?
[07:43] <Aeronius> I was wanting to make an install disk out of it, but it's only 1 GB
[07:44] <Aeronius> the USB install creation utility gave me problems because it was too small, then unetbootin wouldn't see it, and ubuntu wouldn't mount it
[07:45] <Jordan_U> Aeronius: 1 GiB should be more than enough.
[07:45] <Aeronius> for unetbootin, yes
[07:45] <S0lder> Really?
[07:45] <Aeronius> but I need to fix it somehow
[07:45] <S0lder> I always thought that you should double the size of the iso
[07:46] <Aeronius> and all of my eggs are in one basket so to speak
[07:46] <theforwhat> I need to restart to zero my linux , but i lost the cd , I wanna know if it got a other way to do
[07:46] <fishscene> theforwhat: You can re-download the iso and burn a CD.
[07:47] <Jordan_U> S0lder: No, it uses files from the iso (the iso file itself if you set it up with grub2) so it's always going to be 700 meg or under.
[07:47] <Aeronius> Jordan_U: you know the USB Startup Disk Creator in System>Administration
[07:47] <Jordan_U> Aeronius: Yes.
[07:47] <Aeronius> it saw it, but said it was too small
[07:47] <Aeronius> so I downloaded unetbootin
[07:47] <Jordan_U> Aeronius: It may not have had enough free space. Did you have any files on the flash drive already?
[07:48] <fishscene> http://www.ubuntu.com/desktop/get-ubuntu/download 2GB free space on the USB installer
[07:48] <Aeronius> deleted them with ctrl-A and Delete button
[07:48] <Aeronius> so I guess I'll just reformat it with gparted?
[07:49] <guest__> hello
[07:49] <Aeronius> maybe that will fix the problems so it can mount. Or maybe it's too old and degenerated to be useful anymore. I didn't use it a whole lot, but it's a little old
[07:49] <Aeronius> so, gparted reformat?
[07:50] <Jordan_U> Aeronius: Worth a try, yes.
[07:50] <Aeronius> I'm going to do it
[07:50] <daniel> i need help getting my line-in audio to play through my speakers/headphones
[07:52] <Aeronius> Gparted reports all operations successfully completed, in details, format /dev/sdb1 as fat32 00:00:01 check
[07:52] <Aeronius> 1 second seems too fast
[07:52] <Aeronius> but it is just a gig
[07:52] <Jordan_U> Aeronius: It's also small enough that all of the changes can be cached in RAM, then written out to disk while you're doing other things.
[07:52] <Aeronius> anyways, what do I do to see if it mounts, just uplug it?
[07:53] <Aeronius> unplug and replug it?
[07:53] <Jordan_U> Aeronius: sudo mount /dev/sdb1 /media/external/
[07:54] <Aeronius> oh cool, it's automounted
[07:54] <Aeronius> USB startup creator must have borked it?
[07:54] <Aeronius> anyways, now for unetbootin
[07:55] <Jordan_U> Aeronius: Because of the aformentioned delayed write you don't want to unplug the flash drive right after writing to it (even with gparted) without "ejecting" it (which does more than just unmounting does) or at least running "sync".
[07:55] <Aeronius> damn it, the error message popped up again!
[07:56] <Aeronius> You must first mount the USB drive /dev/sdb1 to a mountpoint. Most distributions will do this automatically after you remove and reinsert the USB drive.
[07:56] <Aeronius> I didn't unplug it, it was automounted, so I went ahead and did unetbootin

[07:59] <swimb> the 'rename' file in nautilus has changed in 10.10, any way to make it like it was in 9.10? now it selects the filename and extension to be renamed instead of just the filename
[08:00] <Aeronius> what does that mean?
[08:02] <Aeronius> what is ipw2200?
[08:02] <xiong> swimb, I know what you mean. That's the kind of change I don't like. I suppose you tried prefs.
[08:02] <swimb> i didnt :)
[08:02] <swimb> yes it was so nice the way it was
[08:02] <swimb> oh, nautilus prefs? yep i checked
[08:03] <xiong> Aeronius, Did this happen more than once?
[08:04] <Besogon> good morning everybody! I have a question with Gnome Do. After I've made an alias to gnome-terminal then in time of next using of Gnome Do the alias isn't saved.
[08:04] <Aeronius> this happened slightly differently earlier, the drive wasn't mounted, so I selected the partition (carefully) after pointing unetbootin at the proper ISO and it gave a similar error. I just got unetbootin from the repos
[08:04] <Aeronius> I'm using Ubuntu 9.10
[08:06] <Jordan_U> Aeronius: I think you're going to have problems if you try to make a bootable 10.10 USB with unetbootin or USB creator from 9.10. (though those problems would be completely unrelated to your current problem though).
[08:07] <Aeronius> ipw2200 seems to be my wireless firmware, would seem unrelated

[08:12] <Dr_Willis> Altheas:  whas your video card/chipset?
[08:12] <miklos> hi all
[08:12] <Altheas> Nvidia Geforce 9800 GX2
[08:12] <Dr_Willis> Altheas:  try the 'nomodeset' option.
[08:13] <Altheas> tried that
[08:13] <Dr_Willis> Altheas:  or try the alt-installer cd. then you Might need to use the console to install the nvidia-current drivers befor gettting X starting.
[08:13] <Altheas> ohhh ok i'll try that what is the command line?
[08:14] <Aeronius> Dr_Willis: have you been logging?  Would you check out my issue?
[08:14] <Dr_Willis> sudo apt-get install nvidia-current
[08:14] <Altheas> ohhh ok i'll try that thanks man
[08:14] <Altheas> ohh wait
[08:14] <Dr_Willis> Aeronius:  for my 4 nvidia systems. I have to use the nomodeset, or alt-isntaller and then get the nvidia drivers going.
[08:14] <Aeronius> lol, wrong name
[08:14] <Altheas> how do i boot up without a GUI on?
[08:14] <Dr_Willis> or tell it to use the nv driver/disable that neovu driver. or  dosable plymouth
[08:15] <Dr_Willis> Altheas:  the 'text' option can disable gdm/plymouth at boot time
[08:15] <Jordan_U> Altheas: Temproarily or permanently?
[08:15] <tallis> hello ... does anybody have any experience with thin-clients and network boot?
[08:15] <Jordan_U> !anyone | tallis
[08:15] <Altheas> ahhh ok
[08:16] <HAX0R> ok, u get the 10.04 iso, make sure it is not corrupted, burn it to a disk, boot from said disk, if it gets stuck on loading screen try waiting 20-30 mins then retry, works 4 me
[08:16] <HAX0R> thats how u install 10.04
[08:17] <Dr_Willis> HAX0R:  i just tell it the 'nomodeset' option for my nvidia systems. and they normally work for me.. i cant imagine why waiting 20 min would do anything.

[08:28] <magicjoe> JORDANU: HEY!!!
[08:29] <magicjoe> jordanu: how was your holiday? good i hope. can you help me with the last step of what we were working on?
[08:29] <john38> Can somebody help me with a compile issue??
[08:30] <Jordan_U> magicjoe: Could you remind me what exactly we were working on? :)
[08:31] <Dr_Willis> john38:  state the issue. see who can help.
[08:31] <bucknasty> We all know that we shouldn't use root (e.g. dont start nginx with root) but how to install/start it with low privileges? Is there a basic linux article about security/root stuff..?
[08:31] <john38> Dr_Willis, i just did
[08:31] <kortsi> running on AMD Opteron K8 I try running "modprobe powernow-k8" but nothing appears in lsmod, and nothing in dmesg. modprobe gives a warning about "All config files need .conf: /etc/modprobe/bonding, it will be ignored in a future release"
[08:31] <bucknasty> because I want to start nginx but I dont know how its the right way
[08:31] <magicjoe> JordanU: i had a broken wubi install. i backed up root.disk, and reinstalled wubi. you were going to tell me how to mount the images and copy the working /boot/ to the backed up root.disk
[08:31] <john38> Error in installing driver http://paste.ubuntu.com/536975/ need help??
[08:32] <Dr_Willis> magicjoe:  You can mount the root.disk i think via the loopback feature of the mount command.
[08:32] <Jordan_U> magicjoe: Are you booted into the working wubi system now?
[08:32] <Dr_Willis> magicjoe:  similer to how one would do it for an ISO file.
[08:33] <magicjoe> JordanU: no i am on my laptop. but the desktop with wubi is right here. don't i need to boot to my live cd for that though? or do you want me in wubi?
[08:34] <john38> Error in installing driver http://paste.ubuntu.com/536975/ need help??
[08:35] <IrishWristwatch> does anyone know if changing the cipher on openssh is possible
[08:35] <IrishWristwatch> I want to use 3des instead of aes or whatever it's using
[08:36] <greenIT> i can't install eclipse... i used the debian-ppa (didn't read debian), then i removed it and now it says that it can't install eclipse because there have to be older versions of some packages... can some1 help me?
[08:36] <magicjoe> JordanU: if you don't want to take the time, i understand. if you do, my offer to pay you still stands. if its just not a good time, let me know anytime that works for you, and i can work with that. really, this is important to me.
[08:36] <calamity> john38, look, like this: "I had [this error] when I installed [this driver]"
[08:37] <john38> calamity, but i get numerous errors
[08:37] <greenIT> is there an eclipse-repo with the latest eclipse-version for ubuntu?
[08:37] <calamity> so list some of them.
[08:37] <magicjoe> JordanU: my email is 1980j.andres@gmail.com in case you lost it. even if you could email me some detailed instructions on this process, i would be happy! and i am a man of my word, i will pay you.
[08:38] <calamity> bloody pigeons...
[08:38] <greenIT> calamity: did u write that to john or to me?
[08:38] <xiong> What will happen if I install two different versions of Glib?
[08:39] <IrishWristwatch> Can anybody help me with my OpenSSH-related question?
[08:39] <calamity> greenIT, to john
[08:39] <_jesse_> bucknasty: sudo /etc/init.d/nginx start to start nginx
[08:39] <greenIT> calamity: ok
[08:39] <greenIT> irishwristwatch, what is ur question?
[08:39] <IrishWristwatch> Is it possible to manually set the encryption type to something like 3DES.
[08:39] <john38> I have this error[http://paste.ubuntu.com/536975/] when installing LAN[r8168-8.012.00] driver
[08:39] <IrishWristwatch> I'm kind of confused on how that all works.
[08:40] <IrishWristwatch> OpenSSH supports 3DES, Blowfish, AES
[08:41] <IrishWristwatch> But, I can't find anything in the man pages on how to set it for a certain cipher.
[08:41] <john38> for god sakes can anybody take a look at my pastebin
[08:41] <llutz_> IrishWristwatch: man ssh (-cipher)   man sshd_config (cipher option)
[08:41] <IrishWristwatch> ok
[08:41] <Jordan_U> magicjoe: Let's see if we can fix this in the next 20 minutes. If not then noon PST tomorrow would be a good time to continue.
[08:41] <llutz_> IrishWristwatch: man ssh (-c cipher_spec)   sry
[08:41] <FishFace> john: I did. And I have no idea. But you are not alone. There is some guy who pasted a script to fix that, but it might be dated
[08:42] <magicjoe> JordanU:works for me. whatever is most convenient for you
[08:42] <Jordan_U> magicjoe: Either a LiveCD or the wubi install will work. If you boot into wubi there's one less thing to mount so it's slightly easier :)
[08:42] <john38> FishFace, do i need to install anything from repo
[08:42] <ikus060> Hi All, I've been experiencing some latency lately. It's seams to be related to Xorg using all the cpu soon are something happen on the screen. Is there problem is well known ? Graphic card : nvidia
[08:42] <ikus060> Thanks in advance
[08:42] <john38> FishFace, sudo apt-get ??
[08:42] <magicjoe> JordanU: ok, and for reference, my backed up root.disk is now in the folder with the new one but named .bak
[08:43] <IrishWristwatch> Thanks llutz_ , I'll check those pages out.
[08:43] <magicjoe> JordanU: booting to wubi installation now
[08:43] <ylmf> hello
[08:43] <HAX0R> r u on live cd of ylmfos
[08:43] <FishFace> john38: No idea. But you could look at this lengthy post and see how others might have got it working - http://www.jamesonwilliams.com/hardy-r8168

[08:45] <HAX0R> just pick first option then select english, to use in english
[08:45] <EpicFialGuy> ive a problem with gnome
[08:45] <IrishWristwatch> iirc ylmf is just ubuntu with a windows xp skin?
[08:45] <HAX0R> no
[08:45] <magicjoe> JordanU: also so you know, i ran the same wubi-installer as before, not the newest one, in hopes of best compatibility
[08:45] <IrishWristwatch> ah, ok then.
[08:45] <EpicFialGuy> all window borders are gone
[08:45] <Jp> how do i install this in 10.04> http://macpablodesigns.wordpress.com/2010/05/01/enable-personal-file-sharing-in-ubuntu-10-04/
[08:45] <EpicFialGuy> i cannot manage window locations
[08:46] <EpicFialGuy> and i cannot type when the cursor is outside an active window
[08:46] <EpicFialGuy> gnome-window-properties is not working
[08:46] <HAX0R> ylmf is better,uses different options, looks better, and is just plain awesome
[08:46] <nicofs> My pidgin is v2.7.3 -installed via Synaptic- but has problems authenticating (MSN). I am told that this should be solved in v2.7.7 (current version). How do I upgrade, if the upgrade is not yet in Synaptic?
[08:46] <EpicFialGuy> purging /.gnome2/ of files did nothing
[08:46] <EpicFialGuy> nicofs: apt-get ?
[08:47] <ylmf> What is your version?
[08:47] <IrishWristwatch> nicofs, I've been having that same problem as well
[08:47] <Jp> how do i enable personal file sharing for bluetooth?
[08:47] <bucknasty> _jesse_: starting nginx is not the problem, but with low privileges (security reasons)
[08:47] <IrishWristwatch> Since yesterday, my pidgin has been giving me cert errors
[08:47] <magicjoe> JordanU: loaded wubi terminal open, as root.
[08:47] <IrishWristwatch> I thought it might've been someone trying to do a man in the middle attack
[08:47] <nicofs> EpicFialGuy: apt-get update; then apt-get upgrade ? not working.
[08:47] <ylmf> I have ubuntu 9.0
[08:47] <fishscene> Irish, for MSN?
[08:47] <IrishWristwatch> so I havn't logged in
[08:47] <IrishWristwatch> yes
[08:47] <ylmf> I have ubuntu 9.0
[08:47] <HAX0R> in ubuntu, how do you use root
[08:47] <IrishWristwatch> fishman_, yes.
[08:48] <fishscene> I just fired up pidgin today for the first time in months and I got that message.
[08:48] <Jordan_U> !root | HAX0R
[08:48] <FishFace> nicofs: You have to manage your MSN certificates manually 'they say'. Join #pidgin and see the topic
[08:48] <john38> FishFace, i am using 2.6.32-25 which source and headers do i need
[08:48] <IrishWristwatch> Yeah
[08:48] <IrishWristwatch> I think microsoft might've switched something up.
[08:48] <_jesse_> bucknasty: hmm? People warn against making the webserver run as the root user, you need to use sudo to start it up though
[08:48] <ylmf> aha
[08:48] <_jesse_> bucknasty: it will run under it's own user though
[08:48] <FishFace> john38: I can't help you because I don't know enough about it.
[08:48] <Jp> how do i enable personal file sharing for bluetooth ubuntu 10.04
[08:48] <john38> FishFace, ok
[08:48] <Jp> ?
[08:48] <HAX0R> i kno, but in debian, u can set root password
[08:48] <IrishWristwatch> Never run a webserver as root, because of exploits
[08:48] <_jesse_> ^ right
[08:48] <nicofs> FishFace: "we released Pidgin 2.7.7 with what we believe to be a complete fix to the problem." why not install that?
[08:49] <Aeronius> *ahem* if I run md5sum -c md5sum.txt | grep -vi 'OK$' and it returns to the command line without saying anything, does that mean the USB drive is good?
[08:49] <Jordan_U> HAX0R: We don't support having a root password set.
[08:49] <ulancie> salam semua heuheuheu
[08:49] <nucleus> someone more then me that have problems with the reppos? when i reload in synaptic a reppo is broken.... i have tried with other sources to... ?
[08:49] <EpicFialGuy> anyone help?
[08:49] <ylmf> what is your system?
[08:49] <HAX0R> but how do u change root password in ubuntu 10.04
[08:49] <Jordan_U> HAX0R: Why do you think you need to set a root password?
[08:49] <ylmf> what is your system?
[08:49] <IrishWristwatch> HAX0R, in ubuntu we use sudo instead of a root account
[08:49] <ulancie> can any peolple help me
[08:49] <EpicFialGuy> ubuntu 10.10
[08:49] <FishFace> nicofs: Well, because it was kind of fixed. Did you check this? - http://developer.pidgin.im/wiki/MSNCertIssue
[08:49] <IrishWristwatch> sudo <command> runs the command as root
[08:49] <HAX0R> but CAN you change the root password
[08:49] <IrishWristwatch> yes you can
[08:49] <glebihan> !ask | ulancie
[08:50] <IrishWristwatch> but it's not recommended
[08:50] <HAX0R> how
[08:50] <Jordan_U> magicjoe: Can you pastebin the output of "mount" and the contents of /boot/grub/grub.cfg ?
[08:50] <Flannel> HAX0R: Sure, but there's no useful reason to.
[08:50] <IrishWristwatch> passwd root
[08:50] <IrishWristwatch> er
[08:50] <IrishWristwatch> sudo passwd root
[08:50] <FloodBot2> IrishWristwatch: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
[08:50] <Flannel> HAX0R: What are you hoping to accomplish when you set the root password?
[08:50] <ylmf> what systemyou are using?
[08:50] <ylmf> what system you are using?
[08:50] <nicofs> FishFace: that's where I got the quote from...
[08:50] <IrishWristwatch> HAX0R, then you do passwd -u root to unlock
[08:50] <IrishWristwatch> but please don't do this if you don't have to
[08:51] <_jesse_> ylmf: can you stop asking that please?
[08:51] <magicjoe> JordanU: how do i pastebin the contents of the directory?
[08:51] <Jp> how do i enable personal file sharing for bluetooth under ubuntu 10.10?
[08:51] <glebihan> nucleus: what error message are you getting ?
[08:51] <EpicFialGuy> my gnome has no window borders, please help
[08:51] <ylmf> OK
[08:51] <Jordan_U> magicjoe: It's not a directory, it's a single file.
[08:51] <HAX0R> but why is changing root password unrecommended if u change it to sumthing good
[08:51] <_jesse_> HAX0R: because there's no need to have one at all
[08:51] <Flannel> HAX0R: Because there's no benefits to having it set, and at least one downside.
[08:52] <magicjoe> JordanU: the first one is http://pastebin.com/UX5JBVMK
[08:52] <nucleus> glebihan: this "W: A error occurred during the signature verification. The repository is not updated and the previous index files will be used.

[08:52] <EpicFialGuy> my gnome has no window borders, please help
[08:52] <FishFace> nicofs: All I know is that a bunch of people come in that channel and get it fixed. Usually from that link. I don't have MSN so I can't tell you either way.

[08:53] <nicofs> FishFace: my problem is rather why I can't have the latest version of pidgin...
[08:53] <glebihan> nucleus: you're welcome
[08:53] <_jesse_> Aeronius: yes that means the md5sum didn't find any errors given that file
[08:54] <EpicFialGuy> my gnome has no window borders, please help
[08:54] <john38> FishFace, one question if a nic fails one day but works the next day is that hardware issue
[08:55] <FishFace> john38: Yep. Laptop maybe? Is the light lit up?
[08:55] <FishFace> john38: Or on your router/modem? Lit up?
[08:55] <john38> FishFace, its working today link light is orange activity is yellow
[08:55] <john38> FishFace, pc
[08:56] <buzain> glebihan: what do I do if apt-get gives a Hash Sum mismatch?
[08:56] <FishFace> nicofs: What happens when you go to the pidgin.im site and install as they say?
[08:56] <glebihan> buzain: what is the exact error message ?
[08:56] <Jordan_U> magicjoe: sudo mount -o loop /host/ubuntu/disks/root.disk.bak /mnt/
[08:57] <FishFace> john38: Could be a bad cable also. Guessing.
[08:57] <EpicFialGuy> why won't anyone at least try to help me? there's one bum over at #gnome that tried
[08:57] <Jordan_U> !patience | EpicFialGuy
[08:57] <nicofs> FishFace: what kind of installation? that certificate thing or installing from scratch?
[08:57] <magicjoe> JordanU:done
[08:57] <john38> FishFace, i just want to know if it will fail again or do i need to get nic replaced
[08:58] <KB1JWQ> EpicFialGuy: Try restarting the metacity service.
[08:58] <IrishWristwatch> EpicFialGuy, are you using compiz or metacity
[08:58] <EpicFialGuy> compiz i suppose, let me check my synaptic
[08:58] <nicofs> FishFace: never mind. just found out...
[08:58] <IrishWristwatch> that happened to me once before as well
[08:58] <FishFace> nicofs: Yep - http://pidgin.im/download/ubuntu/
[08:58] <IrishWristwatch> I can't remember how I fixed it though
[08:58] <IrishWristwatch> I'll try to remember
[08:59] <Dr_Willis> EpicFialGuy:  no borders = compiz or metacity crashed.. restart one or both of them. Try 'fusion-icon' tool to automatcally restart them iof they crash a log.
[08:59] <EpicFialGuy> both are installed
[08:59] <Dr_Willis> EpicFialGuy:  alt-f2  -> 'metacity --replace'
[08:59] <Jordan_U> magicjoe: sudo mv /mnt/boot/ /mnt/boot-bak2; sudo cp -r /boot/ /mnt/
[08:59] <Aeronius> _jesse_: thank you!!!
[08:59] <EpicFialGuy> i'll do what dr willis says, brb
[09:00] <magicjoe> JordanU: DONE
[09:00] <nicofs> FishFace: just by chance, do you know why pidgin is shipped with - but not updated in ubuntu?
[09:00] <FishFace> john: If your system sees the card ok, then its probably not that, as long as it is enabled. Or a bad cable. But for a few bucks I might try a new or even used card. Don't know why that particular driver is such a problem.
[09:00] <IrishWristwatch> pidgin isn't shopped with ubuntu anymore is it?
[09:00] <Dr_Willis> nicofs:  6 mo release cycle. everything eveutually gets out of date. If you want latest - try the PPA's
[09:00] <Dr_Willis> !info pidgin
[09:01] <FishFace> nicofs: They just went through 2 or 3 changes in the last month because of MSN and ICQ problems. So its not updated that often.
[09:01] <IrishWristwatch> I thought they switched to empathy
[09:01] <Dr_Willis> !info empathy
[09:01] <rww> IrishWristwatch: it's not installed by default. it's still in the repositories.
[09:01] <doc|home> empathy is a bit crap
[09:01] <IrishWristwatch> There is a 3rd party repo for pidgin as well
[09:01] <EpicFialGuy> DR WILLIS I LOVE YOU
[09:01] <songer> EpicFialGuy: no escribas todo en mayusculas, va contra las normas. La proxima vez seras expulsado.
[09:01] <IrishWristwatch> if you want to the latest builds I guess.
[09:02] <rww> hrm
[09:02] <Dr_Willis> EpicFialGuy:  that was such a faq. It gets asked in here probelry 4x a day..
[09:02] <rww> TEST MESSAGE PLEASE IGNORE
[09:02] <songer> rww: no escribas todo en mayusculas, va contra las normas. La proxima vez seras expulsado.
[09:02] <nicofs> FishFace: I know - but they had to in order for pidgin to work... I guess to inexperianced or new users it is an inconveniance that it wasn't updated automatically...
[09:02] <Jordan_U> magicjoe: sudo umount /mnt/; sudo mv /host/ubuntu/disks/root.disk /host/ubuntu/disks/root.disk.new; sudo mv /host/ubuntu/disks/root.disk.bak /host/ubuntu/disks/root.disk
[09:02] <rww> songer: Turn that script off, please.
[09:02] <IrishWristwatch> good job Dr_Willis
[09:02] <Dr_Willis> EpicFialGuy:  if compiz keeps crashing you can install/run 'fusion-icon' it will auto-restart it
[09:03] <magicjoe> JordanU: DONE!
[09:04] <FishFace> nicofs: I know what you mean. But if Pidgin had a problem with its ICQ or whatever and someone 'just' installed Ubuntu, then there wouldn't be enough time gap for the fix. So yeah, it needs watching.
[09:04] <buzain> glebihan: Failed to fetch http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/lucid-updates/main/source/Source.bz2: Hash Sum mismatch
[09:04] <EpicFialGuy> gentlemen, one more question
[09:04] <IrishWristwatch> pidgin is much better than empathy
[09:05] <EpicFialGuy> do you know a way to apply "no special text rendering" rule to every app?
[09:05] <nicofs> FishFace: I think it's rather that ICQ has a problem with pidgin^^ but thanks for your help anyway. much appreciated.
[09:05] <Jordan_U> magicjoe: Try rebooting into wubi again. If you're really lucky you'll boot into the old wubi install. I expect there to be further problems to deal with, but I do think there's a good chance it will at least boot now,
[09:05] <EpicFialGuy> because i just love the crisp font used in pre-vista windoses
[09:05] <FishFace> nicofs: Yeah. They keep changing stuff. Your welcome.
[09:05] <magicjoe> JordanU: im guessing that was the end of that . yeah reboot now. ok trying it!
[09:05] <EpicFialGuy> i nearly achieved it in my ubuntu, but it's not globally applied
[09:06] <IrishWristwatch> EpicFialGuy, define "no special text rendering"?
[09:06] <gorski> why this is a nonsolution problem: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/441835 although downgrading udisks helps?
[09:06] <glebihan> buzain: try switching to the main server instead of the US one
[09:06] <EpicFialGuy> IrishWristwatch: by default all text in ubuntu is rounded, as if it was anti-aliased
[09:06] <IrishWristwatch> if you go to System > Preferences > Appearance > Fonts you can change some system fonts there EpicFialGuy
[09:07] <EpicFialGuy> IrishWristwatch: I turned on monochromatic rendering there
[09:07] <EpicFialGuy> IrishWristwatch: I want to apply it globally
[09:07] <Aeronius> *query* is there are simple way of testing a USB thumb drive for integrity?
[09:07] <EpicFialGuy> some apps refuse to use this setting
[09:07] <EpicFialGuy> like winamp, tor, firefox...
[09:08] <st> EpicFialGuy, use .fonts.conf
[09:08] <Merlin_> hello?
[09:08] <buzain> glebihan: how do you do that on a server using CLI? manually editing sources.list?
[09:08] <magicjoe> JordanU: /etc/apparmor/initramfs: 27: /sbin/apparmor_parser: not found Mount of root filesystem failed A mainenance shell will now be started CONTROL-D will terminate this shell and reboot the system Give root password for maintenance (or type Control-D to continue)
[09:09] <Merlin_> anyone home that can help me with my first ever installation of Ubuntu?
[09:09] <glebihan> buzain: yes I guess that's the solution (never used server edition, so not sure if there's any tool to do that another way)
[09:10] <nicofs> in a shell script (bash), how do I make a loop that runs until a certain keystroke?
[09:10] <ChaoRhi> !bash | nicofs
[09:10] <buzain> glebihan: thanks for your help anyways
[09:10] <glebihan> buzain: you're welcome
[09:10] <ChaoRhi> nicofs ... wait, that didn't work right
[09:10] <Merlin_> anyone?
[09:10] <IrishWristwatch> lol
[09:10] <IrishWristwatch> Merlin_,
[09:11] <IrishWristwatch> What are you installing it on, and which version of Ubuntu?
[09:11] <Merlin_> the newest version on my old Dell computer? 4550?
[09:11] <IrishWristwatch> If it's a windows computer do you plan on keeping the windows partition?
[09:11] <Merlin_> no
[09:12] <EpicFialGuy> ive another gnome related problem ;_;
[09:12] <Merlin_> i dont think so, the windows is all messed up and my friend said I would like Ubuntu
[09:12] <Aeronius> *query* is there are simple way of testing a USB thumb drive for integrity?
[09:12] <magicjoe> JordanU: so maybe try you at noon tomorrow?
[09:12] <EpicFialGuy> when i want to go to my user folder via gnome bar, it tried to open my folder with gedit and not nautilus
[09:12] <Jordan_U> magicjoe: Yes.
[09:12] <IrishWristwatch> Merlin_, I suggest googling to see if other people have installed ubuntu on that same computer and if they encountered any problems
[09:12] <IrishWristwatch> Then either test Ubuntu with a LiveCD, or just install it
[09:13] <IrishWristwatch> it's pretty straight forward
[09:13] <Merlin_> thanks Irish... there has to be a way
[09:13] <magicjoe> JordanU: ok. thanks for givin it a go.
[09:13] <IrishWristwatch> on the same computer model*
[09:13] <Jordan_U> magicjoe: You're welcome.
[09:13] <Merlin_> I did a memory test, I finally got the Ubuntu screen to come up, but nothing after that..... the screen just takes forever
[09:13] <IrishWristwatch> Merlin_, if your computer is too slow for the LiveCD, I suggest you try the alternate installer
[09:14] <magicjoe> JordanU: i can always rename the .disk files in windows, and have the new install to work off of worst case scenario. but if you are up for it tomorrow, ill try to find you.
[09:14] <Merlin_> alternate installer?
[09:14] <FishFace> Aeronius: I know you have been working on this for hours. But how about you try booting with a live CD and then put the USB drive in. This should resolve any problems with your current OS you might have. Which I doubt you have any IMO.
[09:15] <FishFace> Aeronius: I mean current problems with the USB drive
[09:15] <IrishWristwatch> Merlin_, the alternate installer is the "text-based" installer
[09:15] <Merlin_> hmm
[09:15] <IrishWristwatch> which uses less system resources
[09:15] <Merlin_> gotta figure out how to do that
[09:15] <IrishWristwatch> it's useful for installs on older machines
[09:16] <IrishWristwatch> eh, just download the alternate cd .iso and burn it
[09:16] <Merlin_> Im going to come back in mIRC and research and talk to you some more
[09:16] <IrishWristwatch> http://www.ubuntu.com/desktop/get-ubuntu/alternative-download
[09:16] <IrishWristwatch> There is the link.
[09:16] <wissem> hi all
[09:16] <kermit> how do i upgrade certain packages but stay in 10.4LTS ?
[09:17] <st> kermit, add repositories from maverick
[09:17] <wissem> i m having a problem with fsck , i can not boot my karmic anymore !
[09:17] <Aeronius> FishFace: I think I have a usable thumbdrive, I don't really have a good live cd anyways, but I just want to make sure before I call it done. I'm waiting for my new laptop to come in the mail
[09:17] <wissem> in rescue mode i get this message : "fsck from util-linux-ng 2.16."
[09:18] <FishFace> Aeronius: I figure that you should have got it by now since you tried so many things. Maybe the drive is a POS and its time to toss it :)
[09:19] <wissem> any help .
[09:19] <benpowers23> help!!!
[09:19] <Aeronius> is the right thing to do to unmount it, and run fsck on it? I think it works because the md5sums checked out
[09:20] <Aeronius> I just want to be doubly sure
[09:20] <wissem> i m on a live cd
[09:20] <wissem> i did sudo fsck -y /dev/sda6
[09:21] <wissem> no error
[09:21] <wissem> while sudo fsck -y /dev/sda7 comes up with a error(it s the swap partition !)
[09:21] <Niks> Hi everyone..
[09:21] <FishFace> Aeronius: Yeah. Unmount it if you can. I don't know where you are at with it at this point and there are others who might be able to direct you further. OR - Format it in a windows machine :)
[09:21] <benpowers23> i tried to kubuntu and have pretty much screwed my ubuntu os i want to do a clean install, but im having trouble
[09:21] <Niks> I am stuck during the installation ...
[09:21] <benpowers23> anyone help?
[09:21] <Aeronius> FishFace: I told you I think it works, but I just want to run fsck to be sure
[09:21] <Niks> ubuntu 10.10 through a USB disk..
[09:22] <Niks> Please help..
[09:22] <Aeronius> I did the md5sums on it, no errors
[09:22] <Aeronius> what's the right syntax for fsck?
[09:23] <Niks> I am stuck in the installation.. cant go back.. please help...!!
[09:23] <IrishWristwatch> Niks, what's up
[09:23] <FishFace> Niks: If you explain where you are stuck and maybe more details, someone might help.
[09:25] <FishFace> Aeronius: I dunno. But these guys do - http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=458770
[09:25] <Niks> FishFace: While installing.. a dialog comes which asks for username, name, etc details.. and below there is a bar which shows how much has the installation completed.. the thing is the "forward" button is dead.. !!!
[09:25] <rww> Niks: change the upper case letters in the username to lower case
[09:26] <xuekan> FloodBot2: can open proxy users enter here?
[09:26] <rww> xuekan: no
[09:26] <Niks> rww: Yes it has worked..!! Thanks a ton..
[09:27] <Niks> rww: I would have never figured this out..
[09:27] <Aeronius> it says use the fsck -f switch to force a check? Does that go like this: fsck -f /dev/sdb1
[09:27] <FishFace> Niks: 2 things. Are you sure you filled out all of what was asked? I never saw the forward button be stuck or grayed out. And also, can you see ALL of the screen? Something not visable?
[09:27] <rww> Niks: Yeah, it should tell you. It's a bug :(
[09:27] <FishFace> rww: Good one :)
[09:28] <xuekan> rww:oh,thanks.
[09:29] <Aeronius> ok, gonna run it with -V and -v switches too
[09:31] <IrishWristwatch> rww, is that a pretty common bug?
[09:32] <st> linux usernames are case-sensitive except when they are uppercase
[09:34] <Aeronius> would someone look at this and opine if they think I have a problem? http://pastie.org/1327740
[09:35] <thewanderer1> guys, when I install a new kernel, /var/run/reboot-required is created. when does it get removed, and by what?
, lol after rebooting
[09:37] <thewanderer1> yes, but what removes it? it doesn't just disappear, does it?
[09:37] <llutz_> thewanderer1:  grep -ri reboot-required /etc/*
[09:38] <rww> IrishWristwatch: The installer one? Yeah. Comes up a handful of times a day.
[09:38] <magicjoe> OK i need help with somethng easy. i found a radeon driver i think i need. it was a tar.gz. i extracted it. it says to run ./configure then make then make install. well the ./configure worked great.....now make errors. what am i doing wrong. im a noob to this
[09:39] <singularity_> greetings
[09:39] <rww> heh
[09:39] <Moreliini> magicjoe: what are the errors?
[09:40] <magicjoe> no target specified
[09:41] <magicjoe> Moreliini: i cd to the directory and then did ./configure. but when i type make, it says no target specified. im in the folder!
[09:41] <Moreliini> magicjoe: Is there a Makefile in there?
[09:41] <incandenza> thewanderer1: /var/run is a temporary filesystem (note how it's mounted), so it gets completely reset on reboot
[09:42] <magicjoe> Moreliini: there are 2 a .am and a .in
[09:42] <thewanderer1> incandenza: here it's not temporary, I can't see it in `mount`
[09:42] <magicjoe> Moreliini: i got the tar.gz from here https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xserver-xorg-video-ati/1:6.13.0-1ubuntu5
[09:42] <incandenza> thewanderer1: there might be a script that clears it on boot, then.  not sure
[09:42] <Moreliini> magicjoe: and the configure script said it was successful
[09:44] <magicjoe> Moreliini: ah no. it did a bunch of stuff, but now it says requirements not met. no package xorg-server no package fontproto
[09:44] <incandenza> thewanderer1: in any case, those are temporary files (like pids of running processes) that aren't meant to persist across boots
[09:44] <thewanderer1> okay, I see. I'll look around the init scripts, thanks
[09:45] <Aeronius> would someone look at this and opine if they think I have a problem? http://pastie.org/1327740
[09:45] <magicjoe> Moreliini: so what does that mean for me? look for those packages in synaptic? or do they need to be in this folder? am i supposed to be in the root of the unzipped file, or in the /src folder?
[09:46] <thewanderer1> yup, the file gets removed by /lib/init/bootclean.sh as called by mountnfs-bootclean.sh, heh :P
[09:46] <Moreliini> magicjoe: You'll run make in the root where the Makefile is, not src. Apt-get the dependencies
[09:47] <Moreliini> magicjoe: You should not need to copy anything else over into the project dir
[09:48] <magicjoe> Moreliini: sudo apt-get install xorg-server says couldn't find package!
[09:48] <Aeronius> *MayIGetJustASecondOfYourTime* would someone look at this and opine if they think I have a problem? I am a bit troubled.  http://pastie.org/1327740
[09:49] <Moreliini> magicjoe: xserver-xorg-dev should include whatever you might need
[09:50] <kuru> I'm on karmic and want to know how I can get the i686 compiled version of mysql-server-5.1 ?
[09:51] <shachaf> What's the standard program people use when they want to run a virtual machine nowadays?
[09:51] <Moreliini> shachaf: VirtualBox
[09:52] <Guest877> vmware
[09:53] <llutz_> kvm
[09:55] <SIngularity9001> greetings
[09:55] <n3rV3> Virtualbox shachaf easy to use minimal configuration
[09:55] <n3rV3> and its free as of now
[09:56] <suprengr> [cardboard box.. eveen more so]  ;)
[09:56] <shachaf> n3rV3: I'd prefer "works well" to "easy to use minimal configuration". :-)
[09:56] <SIngularity9001> VMware player
[09:56] <SIngularity9001> currently using it , and its free
[09:56] <shachaf> And it's only free if you don't want RDP/USB support, it looks like.
[09:56] <r_a_f> how to send file between 2 ubuntu laptops via wifi?
[09:56] <SIngularity9001> its works well..and barely has to configure.
[09:56] <magicjoe> Moreliini: ok, got past that part, but still not complete in the ./configure. need xf86driproto any idea where to get that? apt-get install says not found
[09:56] <n3rV3> r_a_f, scp
[09:57] <r_a_f> n3rV3: THANKS ;)
[09:57] <Moreliini> apt-cache search xf86driproto
[09:57] <Moreliini> magicjoe: apt-cache search xf86driproto
[09:59] <SIngularity9001> its not true ..
[09:59] <SIngularity9001> i have it for free , and yet i have usb support and  RDP
[10:00] <llutz_> SIngularity9001: depends on your definition of "free"
[10:00] <llutz_> SIngularity9001: the puel-version is cost-free but not free software
[10:00] <root_>  any one here know about plug ins  of  Ubuntu
[10:00] <bazhang> root_, plugins?
[10:00] <root_>  yup
[10:01] <bazhang> root_, perhaps you mean kernel modules
[10:01] <root_> yup
[10:01] <bazhang> root_, please clarify
[10:02] <SIngularity9001> dosent matter ..
[10:02] <Moreliini> what's it called when you drop a line from a boat and motor slowly?
[10:02] <bazhang> Moreliini, offtopic
[10:02] <Moreliini> bazhang: trolling
[10:02] <rww> Moreliini: no, seriously, it is. Try #ubuntu-offtopic :)
[10:02] <magicjoe> Moreliini: ok so if i did that successfully, and the make ran, but then i get a bunch of errors on make install......does that mean this driver is not for me?
[10:02] <bazhang> Moreliini, trawling actually, but still offtopic
[10:02] <rww> oh.
[10:02] <rww> I see what you did there :(
[10:03] <bucknasty> I accidentally deleted pictures from my sd card. I used ddrescue to copy everything. Now I have a output file which is 15GB big. How can I extract the files now?
[10:03] <llutz_> bucknasty: try photorec
[10:03] <Moreliini> magicjoe: you ran make and it succeeded?
[10:03] <bucknasty> and if there are videos too?
[10:03] <llutz_> bucknasty: it recovery various filetypes, not only picturefiles
[10:04] <llutz_> recovers
[10:04] <Aeronius> *help?* would someone look at this and opine if they think I have a problem? I am a bit troubled.  http://pastie.org/1327740
[10:04] <magicjoe> Moreliini: nope make did NOT succeed. sorry. a bunch of struct radeon_dri has no member named....depthBits.....etcetera
[10:04] <bucknasty> and you think it is able to open the "output" file? because I just have this file now
[10:05] <shashwatpns> how do i upgrade from alternate cd?
[10:05] <llutz_> bucknasty: its an image-file, read photorecs man-page for options
[10:05] <magicjoe> radeon_accel.lo error 1
[10:05] <bucknasty> llutz_ I downloaded it and tried to open the output file, but its not working
[10:05] <magicjoe> brb cigarette........stress!
[10:06] <Moreliini> magicjoe: me too, when you return let me know what you're trying to do
[10:11] <magicjoe> Moreliini: well, since updating through update manager to lucid, my video card is not working. im powerpc
[10:12] <magicjoe> Moreliini: was all working perfect before this update!
[10:12] <thevishy> how to use python in ubuntu ? does it have a a default IDE or should I install one
[10:12] <ElNota> thevishy: Type in terminal 'python'
[10:13] <Aeronius> *help* would someone look at this and opine if they think I have a problem? I am a bit troubled. I ran fsck on my thumbdrive, here's the output:  http://pastie.org/1327740
[10:13] <Aeronius> thevishy: install IDLE
[10:13] <thevishy> ok I will try both thanks
[10:14] <Aeronius> typing python in the command line just gets you the python prompt
[10:14] <thevishy> yes I need a gui , IDLE would be a good choice
[10:14] <Aeronius> If you want an IDE, IDLE is made for Python, (get it, Eric Idle?)
[10:15] <Yautja_cetanu> I'm setting up a web server. I'm thinking of putting /home /var and /etc in seperate partitions to /
[10:15] <Yautja_cetanu> Is that a good idea?
[10:16] <Yautja_cetanu> (I've heard there is no problem with /home and /var but is it worth putting /etc in a seperate partition?)
[10:16] <Aeronius> if you're just learning, you should probably start with the latest version too, the default Python in Ubuntu is 2 (to my knowledge), which isn't compatible with the latest, 3
[10:16] <palacios> hola
[10:17] <Moreliini> thevishy: if you don't need 3x nothing compares to ipython
[10:17] <thevishy> !version
[10:17] <Yautja_cetanu> hmmmm ok I can't put /etc in a seperate folder
[10:17] <nicofs> !es | palacios
[10:18] <Jordan_U> Aeronius: Did you unplug the thumb drive without ejecting it or running "sync"?
[10:18] <Aeronius> Haven't unplugged it
[10:19] <Aeronius> I did the rightclick unmount
[10:19] <Aeronius> then I scanned it
[10:19] <thevishy> Have not heard of ipython , is it an advance interactive shell for python ?
[10:19] <Aeronius> did you look at the pastie?
[10:20] <Moreliini> thevishy: yes, I use it for development testing
[10:20] <thevishy> Python 2.7 is the latest no ? And ubuntu has 2.6 which looks ifne
[10:20] <thevishy> Right , will have a look at ipython to , thanks
[10:20] <Aeronius> python 3.1 is out already
[10:20] <thevishy> Oh , didn't know that !
[10:20] <Aeronius> http://www.python.org/
[10:21] <Aeronius> 2 and 3 aren't compatible, if you're just learning, learn 3
[10:22] <Aeronius> or work on converting the code in books usually 2, to 3...
[10:22] <thevishy> i am reading from beginning python book  -2002 edition
[10:23] <Moreliini> thevishy: good for beginning: http://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/python-osmosis/id317462382
[10:23] <thevishy> thanks
[10:24] <Moreliini> np
[10:24] <Aeronius> then convert, or use the documentation online
[10:24] <Aeronius> http://wiki.python.org/moin/Python2orPython3
[10:26] <nit-wit> Aeronius, did hyou get the thumb loadedand your work done
[10:27] <Aeronius> thevishy: http://docs.python.org/py3k/tutorial/index.html It's like an online Python manual/book, completely up to date
[10:27] <Aeronius> nit-wit: yes, and the md5 hash checked out
[10:28] <Aeronius> but I ran fsck just to be sure, and I don't know if the output is bad or not
[10:28] <nit-wit> Aeronius, cool it was hard to tell what was going on
[10:28] <Aeronius>  here's the output:  http://pastie.org/1327740
[10:28] <Aeronius> want to look at it, and opine?
[10:29] <nicofs> I need a good and simple editor with syntax highlighting (preferably including bash) for shell scripting... any suggestions?
[10:30] <void_pointer> vim
[10:30] <Silicone> hi to all... what i need to write else... rhythmbox-client --play.... what to write just to play a specified file... not just open rythmbox?
[10:30] <Aeronius> void_pointer:  he said simple
[10:30] <void_pointer> how is vim not simple?
[10:30] <thevishy> thanks Aeronius  will check that book
[10:30] <void_pointer> slight learning curve
[10:30] <Aeronius> nico, gedit is standard
[10:30] <void_pointer> is all
[10:31] <void_pointer> ah, I forgot I answered this in #ubuntu. Apologies
[10:33] <Aeronius> nit-wit: I figure it must be good if the md5's are all right, but I have these lingering doubts
[10:33] <Aeronius> and I'm really obsessive compulsive about some things...
[10:34] <void_pointer> On a side note, I've never met anyone who has learned to use vim and regretted it. Especially when you are adminning through SSH. Stallman out
[10:34] <nicofs> Let me rephrase... I need a good and simple GUI editor (not in terminal) with syntax highlighting (preferably including bash) for shell scripting... any suggestions? in Windows I used ConText...
[10:35] <Aeronius> void_pointer: cute
[10:36] <sara2010> hi
[10:36] <sara2010> any one help me
[10:36] <sara2010> i m using 9.4
[10:36] <sara2010> when i m going to configure network
[10:36] <sara2010> i m not able to add gateway ip
[10:37] <void_pointer> route add default gw xxx.xxx.xxx.xx
[10:37] <void_pointer> sorry, again I forgot this is GUI-land
[10:38] <sara2010> void_pointer  so what to do now ? u can not help me !
[10:38] <bilalakhtar> sara2010: juts a sec, I will help
[10:38] <sara2010> thanks
[10:39] <bilalakhtar> sara2010: Is it for a wired or wireless connection?
[10:39] <sara2010> wired
[10:39] <void_pointer> sara2010 I did. Open a console window and type "sudo add default gw xxx.xxx.xxx" where "xxx.xxx.xxx" is the IP of your gateway
[10:40] <void_pointer> if that works, you can then make the change persistant
[10:40] <bilalakhtar> sara2010: Click 'Edit connection' in the Network icon drop-down menu, then select 'Auto eth0' in the window and click Edit
[10:40] <Aeronius> nicofs: sorry, I thought gedit would have bash highlighting, Scite probably does, but it's probably not enabled by default
[10:40] <bilalakhtar> sara2010: after that, go to ipv4 settings and change the drop-down to Manual
[10:40] <bilalakhtar> then click add, enter settings then apply
[10:41] <void_pointer> or you could point and click like a windows refugee. It's up to you - 10 seconds or 2 minutes
[10:41] <Aeronius> VIM is the only one that comes up on the first two google pages, really, (and a notepad 2, but I don't know if it's linux compatible or how good it is)
[10:41] <void_pointer> nicofs out of interest, why not vim?
[10:41] <bilalakhtar> void_pointer: For Windows refugees, its best to tell the GUI way
[10:41] <sara2010> bilal i did that
[10:41] <void_pointer> you can use vim like a "GUI" editor
[10:41] <void_pointer> gvim
[10:42] <bilalakhtar> sara2010: But why doesn't it work then?
[10:42] <void_pointer> it has all the syntax highlighting you need
[10:42] <bilalakhtar> sara2010: please be a bit more specific about problems
[10:42] <sara2010> bilal
[10:42] <sara2010> i m giving gw ip
[10:43] <sara2010> when i m going to apply it become 0.0.0.0
[10:44] <bilalakhtar> sara2010: Double click in the entry in that column to open the text field again
[10:45] <sara2010> bilal please tell me any command to enter gateway
[10:45] <sara2010> i have try alot gui
[10:46] <void_pointer> sara2010 I told you
[10:46] <void_pointer> you refused to listen
[10:46] <bilalakhtar> sara2010: listen to void_pointer then
[10:47] <sara2010> okay
[10:47] <sara2010> void_pointer
[10:47] <sara2010> i m listening you now
[10:47] <void_pointer> lol
[10:47] <sasori2501> hey all, anyone know how to get 10.10 + 1215n wireless to work??
[10:48] <void_pointer> sara2010 open a terminal window. Type "sudo route add default gw xxx.xxx.xxx" where xxx.xxx.xxx is the IP of your gateway
[10:48] <ElijahsFriend> 'God bless america'
[10:48] <void_pointer> sara2010 then type "sudo route"
[10:48] <ElijahsFriend> I hear this call in all circles. Military, Political, Financial and even Churches. But I say America bless God first. Make him proud to be an American then yes he will bless you as a nation. In your coming and in your going, in your dealings and in your negotiations yes I dare say even in your prosperity. But it is not a one way street. Should God reward us for our misdeeds, our greed and...
[10:49] <ElijahsFriend> ...our lack of mercy. We push our power around like a bully rather than a benefactor. I say let us show God what we want from him and not the other way around because we neither obey nor follow the lead we just goad that he favors us. Now let me show you when he blesses other nations so that you can see what you missed. As far as one nation under God you can kiss my ass. - Elijah
[10:49] <FloodBot4> ElijahsFriend: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
[10:49] <sara2010> you means sudo route add default gw 10.1.1.1
[10:49] <ElijahsFriend> bite me
[10:49] <void_pointer> sara2010 yes, if 10.1.1.1 is your gateway
[10:49] <r_a_f> ello
[10:49] <alex88> hi guys, i've this problem, my controller is not supported by actual kernel. i've a patch given me by the sata kernel developer that should work.. how can i compile a kernel and apply to a live cd to let me install it?
[10:50] <_raven_> firefox: "iced tea web browser plugin" installed but not available - what to do?

[10:52] <FloodBot4> sara2010: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
[10:53] <nicofs> void_pointer: don't like doing things in a terminal...
[10:53] <Keshi> Sorry about that :).
[10:54] <void_pointer> nicofs yet you want to bash script ...
[10:54] <void_pointer> sara2010 then "sudo route add default gw 10.1.1.1 255.255.255.0"
[10:54] <tyrnis> irc.otaku-irc.fr
[10:54] <tyrnis> oups
[10:54] <nicofs> void_pointer: yep... do one script to never mess in a terminal again^^
[10:54] <void_pointer> nicofs anyway, like I said, you can use gvim
[10:55] <void_pointer> it'll save you from that nasty foundation of linux, the console
[10:55] <nicofs> void_pointer: installed gedit... it does highlight bash, so I'm happy...
[10:55] <serenity> hi
[10:55] <void_pointer> nicofs if you plan on using Linux in any depth and think you'll avoid the console, you might want to think again :)
[10:56] <sara2010> void_pointer  .. there is error came  no such device
[10:56] <serenity> i upgraded to 10.10. Before firefox was working fine. Now it says "Firefox is already running, but is not responding." But there is no process from firefox.
[10:56] <void_pointer> sara2010 well now we are getting somewhere
[10:56] <Keshi> Hello. The network card in my computer keeps on dropping in and out on Ubuntu 10.10 installed on a MacBook Pro 10.10.
[10:56] <Keshi> Any idea how to it?
[10:57] <void_pointer> sara2010 are you sure you typed the command exactly as i wrote it?
[10:57] <void_pointer> sara2010 including the "gw"?
[10:57] <nicofs> void_pointer: I don't want to completely avoid the console... but I use a graphical frontend on my linux. I just want to use that where possible...
[10:58] <sara2010> void_pointer  i m  sure ...  but before i  type without netmast
[10:58] <sara2010> that command work!
[10:58] <sara2010> now with netmask its not working
[10:58] <void_pointer> of course it did
[10:59] <void_pointer> sara2010 well, you can exclude the netmask
[10:59] <void_pointer> sara2010 or try a netmask of "255.255.0.0"
[10:59] <valer> how can i install apps on iphone using ubuntu?
[10:59] <valer>  /msg NickServ identify
[11:00] <Aeronius> nicofs: you're welcome!
[11:00] <void_pointer> Aeronius it's so distressing when they don't thank you, isn't it?
[11:00] <erUSUL> !iphone
[11:00] <void_pointer> Aeronius I'll thank you on his behalf
[11:00] <void_pointer> Aeronius thank you.
[11:03] <nicofs> Aeronius: sorry for not thanking... I needed to suddenly shift to the kitchen to prepare breakfast... that somehow distracted me...
[11:03] <Aeronius> lol, gee thank you, and thanks for Gnu too
[11:03] <sara2010> void_pointer ... its same no such device
[11:04] <Aeronius> nicofs: don't worry about it
[11:05] <tkmmc> nicofs：it's  the  morning?
[11:05] <void_pointer> sara2010 well, first, are you sure that's the IP of your gateway?
[11:06] <void_pointer> tkmmc if you ever have time you should look into how the earth rotates on its axis. It'll help you to understand how it can be morning in one place, and evening in another
[11:06] <void_pointer> radical, I know
[11:07] <deena> Hi
[11:07] <deena> need to install serious sam 11 in ubuntu 10.10
[11:07] <deena> any idea how to
[11:08] <erUSUL> !wine | deena
[11:08] <amanthakur> deena, use wine
[11:10] <sara2010> void_pointer .. yes i m sure ..  my server gateway ip is 10.1.1.1
[11:11] <sara2010> i m giving ip 10.1.1.5
[11:11] <sara2010> netmask is 255.255.255
[11:11] <sara2010> netmask is 255.255.255.0
[11:11] <sara2010> getway ping reply is working
[11:11] <snow_ru> is there  a bot here ?
[11:11] <snow_ru> !bot
[11:11] <snow_ru> hi ubottu how are you ?
[11:12] <snow_ru> guys,  is there any bot for Yahoo chat ?
[11:13] <Zol> What's the difference between a desktop environment and a window manager?
[11:13] <Gnea> snow_ru: not for ubuntu
[11:13] <amanthakur> sara2010, your ip is of class A so its netmask should be 255.0.0.0 not that one you have.
[11:13] <Matthew__> hi. http://pastebin.com/5KkM2B03 is there something wrong with the way I am setting the permissions pls?
[11:13] <Gnea> Zol: A window manager manages window attriutes, while a desktop manager handles desktop attriutes
[11:14] <paperchaser> anyone want to explain how i use/install a tar ball?
[11:14] <amanthakur> Zol, google that this channel is for troubleshooting problem not learning theories.
[11:14] <V1ntage> hey, I'm about to install a hosting server on Ubuntu (with varnish, memcache, etc) Is it actually recommended to use the 64bit version of the OS?
[11:14] <Merlin_> Does anyone know of a version of linux I can run on an old computer with only 256 RAM? Ubuntu doesnt seem to be working
[11:14] <L10n> paperchaser: have you used goodgle?
[11:14] <Gnea> amanthakur: we do some learning theory on a volunteer basis now and then.
[11:14] <Dr_Willis> Merlin_:  lubuntu, puppy linux, google for 'mini' disrtos perhaps.
[11:14] <erUSUL> paperchaser: a tar ball is alike a zip file. how to install it depends on what is inside it.
[11:14] <FishFace> Merlin_: Puppy Linux will be good
[11:14] <L10n> Merlin_: try debian
[11:15] <paperchaser> ha lion, i just figured that some one here would be smart enough
[11:15] <Dr_Willis> Merlin_:  theres bodhi  that just came out. its a minimal ubuntu also.
[11:15] <amanthakur> paperchaser, untar tar balls. cd in to the folder then ./configure followed by make and make install
[11:15] <Dr_Willis> Merlin_:  i would say try Lubuntu first
[11:15] <L10n> paperchaser: im certain most of us are
[11:15] <Aeronius> V1ntage: yes, 64 is espcially recommended for server
[11:15] <L10n> amanthakur: that's probably a decent answer but wont help him...
[11:15] <paperchaser> thanks anathakur
[11:15] <sebastia> chan time
[11:15] <Merlin_> I already screwed up two discs trying to burn ubuntu
[11:15] <V1ntage> Aeronius: allright, thanks, just wanted to make sure (been using 32bit up till now)
[11:16] <erUSUL> Merlin_: puppy linux? dsl? slitaz ?
[11:16] <Berklib> hey everyone
[11:16] <Zol> Gnea: Thanks!
[11:16] <amanthakur> Gnea, hmm but thats not a one line theory...:P
[11:16] <paperchaser> hey lion thank im just a nube
[11:16] <Jordan_U> alex88: No USB flash drives?
[11:16] <Berklib> I have linux but this question isnt really linux related
[11:16] <Dr_Willis> Merlin_:   you could try 'tiny core linux' also.
[11:16] <Aeronius> V1ntage: they've also recently removed their warning away from the 64 desktop too
[11:16] <L10n> paperchaser: well you should man tar to not be a noob ;)
[11:16] <paperchaser> im trying
[11:16] <L10n> np
[11:16] <erUSUL> paperchaser: what are you trying to install ?
[11:17] <paperchaser> cgiproxy
[11:17] <Berklib> hey guys , I have linux but this question isnt really linux related
[11:17] <guampa> Dr_Willis: tinycore is too small, more for 16Mb (imho)
[11:17] <Jordan_U> !ot | Berklib
[11:17] <Gnea> amanthakur: where does it say it has to be? :P
[11:17] <Dr_Willis> guampa:  install what you want. :)
[11:17] <bonheurd> bj
[11:17] <guampa> oh thx! i will
[11:17] <V1ntage> Aeronius: oh, nice :) will check that later on
[11:17] <Merlin_> my computer is so messed up I cant even google things properly because of adware/malware etc. so annoying
[11:18] <amanthakur> paperchaser, well actually that depends on the type of tar balls also you have. Whether you have your tar compressed with bzip2 or gzip. accordingly you use the switches. Go for man pages of tar as L10n said.
[11:18] <gogeta> Merlin_: must be windows
[11:18] <Merlin_> yeah it is
[11:19] <Merlin_> I want to switch, it's an old machine I just want to keep it running until I can get a new computer
[11:19] <Aeronius> Merlin_: I found that imgburn worked really well for me when I was exiting Windows
[11:19] <Matthew__> yeah i'd suggest imgburn too
[11:19] <Tuplad> could anyone point me in the right direction about this ? I have Ubuntu and winxp. I'd like to use winxp through virtualbox on linux, how is that possible ?
[11:19] <void_pointer> er, why not get really radical and reinstall?
[11:19] <Merlin_> imgburn?
[11:19] <paperchaser> alright
[11:19] <Aeronius> And puppy Linux should work if you had XP on it
[11:19] <erUSUL> Tuplad: /join #vbox ?
[11:19] <Merlin_> cant reinstall windows cuz I dont have my disc anymore
[11:20] <Tuplad> erUSUL: :D thanks!
[11:20] <void_pointer> you better get busy installing ubuntu then
[11:20] <Merlin_> (its 320am here, where are all you people?)
[11:20] <V1ntage> hmm, don't want to talk against Ubuntu, but if you want lightweight and have a lot of time you can always try slackware or gentoo
[11:21] <L10n> Merlin_: seattle; you must be close
[11:21] <void_pointer> V1ntage he's a novice. He doesn't want slack or gentoo
[11:21] <Tuplad> V1ntage: lightweight yes, a lot of time: no
[11:21] <Aeronius> Tuplad: I do this, it's easy, install ubuntu, install VB OSE, The GUI is a piece of cake to use
[11:21] <Merlin_> Vancouver Canadian version
[11:21] <gogeta> Merlin_: you can alwyas try a linux live cd and a antivires for linux
[11:21] <V1ntage> void_pointer: Tuplad: good point :)
[11:21] <L10n> Merlin_: Go Nucks!?
[11:21] <void_pointer> :)
[11:21] <Aeronius> Merlin_: what version on windows do you run now?
[11:21] <Matthew__> won't xfce do for Merlin_ ? i ran it on a 128mb
[11:22] <void_pointer> windows ME?
[11:22] <Merlin_> Nucks!!!
[11:22] <L10n> :D
[11:22] <Merlin_> I run Windows XP
[11:22] <V1ntage> what about xubuntu these days?
[11:22] <Dr_Willis> Lubuntu has gotten very well done. and is lighter then xubuntu.
[11:22] <Aeronius> Merlin_: did you see what I said about puppy? and I understand xubuntu is just as big as ubuntu nowadays...
[11:22] <amanthakur> Tuplad, you can get a virtualbox from the repos in ubuntu. Or you can download the *.deb file from the www.virtualbox.org
[11:23] <Dr_Willis> Its not actually an official variant i think however.
[11:23] <Tuplad> Aeronius: can't figure it out
[11:23] <gogeta> Merlin_: using a av for linux is ment to clean out windows systems
[11:23] <Merlin_> I looked at puppy
[11:23] <Dr_Willis> Puppy linux - is a rather odd linux in many ways. :) it is good to get the work done however.
[11:23] <Aeronius> Tuplad: what can't you figure, where are you at?
[11:23] <Merlin_> gogeta? pardon?
[11:23] <Tuplad> Aeronius: I have VBox, but can't figure out how to start WinXP (which is already installed).
[11:23] <gogeta> Merlin_: you said your windows is infected
[11:23] <Merlin_> yeah it is
[11:24] <Merlin_> how does everyone type in red?
[11:24] <amanthakur> Tuplad, whats the big deal in starting a an OS which is already installed...:)
[11:24] <FishFace> If anyone has the Weather Report applet on their tool bar can you let me know what the original radar map link is?
[11:24] <Aeronius> Tuplad: you have two choices, 1) easy, long, but probably best: install a fresh version of windows on a virtual drive
[11:24] <gogeta> Merlin_: you have limited ram?
[11:25] <Jordan_U> If you use someon's nickname in your message it shows up highlighted in their client. Merlin_
[11:25] <Tuplad> amanthakur: too lazy(?) to reboot each time I want to check movies on my xbox...
[11:25] <Merlin_> I have 256 RAM
[11:25] <FishFace> OH wait....its regional. Never mind. Or NYC area if you have it.
[11:25] <Tuplad> amanthakur: need to run TVersity so that my xbox can see the server
[11:25] <alex88> Jordan_U, yes i have
[11:25] <Tuplad> Aeronius: they just told me at the #vbox channel that it's not advised to do that, http://www.virtualbox.org/wiki/Migrate_Windows I guess I'll just reboot <_<
[11:25] <Merlin_> honestly I just want a fresh install of something so I can just go back to basics
[11:25] <alex88> oh..so with saved data i can change kernel
[11:25] <amanthakur> Tuplad, i m talking about the installed machine in vbox not dual boot....:)
[11:25] <Aeronius> 2) use some kind of utility to ghost your installed partition into a virtual drive and run that
[11:26] <JusticeZero> Hi, can someone help me troubleshoot a router?
[11:26] <alex88> Jordan_U, then with chroot also to installed machine right?
[11:26] <Jordan_U> alex88: Yes.
[11:26] <Aeronius> is 2) what you were advised against?
[11:26] <amanthakur> Tuplad, you said you have installed winXP in vbox
[11:26] <gogeta> Merlin_: http://www.avg.com/ie-en/avg-rescue-cd
[11:26] <alex88> Jordan_U, thank you very much )L:
[11:26] <guampa> Tuplad: it can be done, you create a virtal disk from an existing partition that's all
[11:26] <Merlin_> my AVG isnt even working right
[11:26] <Jordan_U> alex88: You're welcome.
[11:26] <sebastia> wat is diferences of latest version Ubuntu on Jaunty
[11:26] <JusticeZero> It works, but sluggishly and intermittently (as in it gives a lot of 'can't connect to server' on firefox in bursts)
[11:26] <Aeronius> Tuplad: it's a bad idea to use an existing partition
[11:26] <Tuplad> amanthakur: I didn't say that, I said winxp is already installed and I'd like to run it through winxp
[11:27] <gogeta> Merlin_: or you can use a live cd or instaled linux system to install avg
[11:27] <amanthakur> JusticeZero, whats the problem
[11:27] <Tuplad> Aeronius: ghosting sounds nice.
[11:27] <gogeta> Merlin_: and scan the windows systemm
[11:27] <guampa> Aeronius: explain why if you will, i haven't had any probs
[11:27] <Tuplad> amanthakur: run it through vbox I mean
[11:27] <JusticeZero> I have internet.. but it's slow, and web surfing gives a lot of "Can't find server" errors.
[11:27] <Tuplad> Aeronius: they advised me against using an existing partition
[11:27] <V1ntage> Merlin_: whatever you do, if you haven't planned or done it already, backup your hard disk before installing a new OS
[11:28] <Aeronius> guampa: I'm talking from my own experience, an older version of Windows has a lot of installs and uninstalls clogging up the registry, and the possibility of malware
[11:28] <JusticeZero> Connecting direct to modem solves it instantly (but we have several computers so that isn't a solution)
[11:28] <Yautja_Cetanu> Could anyone help me with Remote Desktop Preferences? It says computers are only reachable to me using localhost rather then my IP address?
[11:28] <amanthakur> Tuplad, what you actually wanna do? Do you want to install linux in vbox? or vice-versa?
[11:28] <guampa> Aeronius: so? it runs as guest, no interaction with the host or other guests unless you provide it
[11:28] <Merlin_> everything I need has been backed up for a month
[11:28] <Atlantic777> Hi! I've got some problems with gnome panels. I had 3 panels, one up and 2 bottom. I set autohide on the upper one of the bottoms and gnome stucked. I can't even click or something... I've tried to delete ~/.nautilus folder and restart X, but didn't help. What to try next?
[11:28] <Aeronius> Tuplad: so you get a fresh install, you use linux primarily, so you aren't as exposed to malware
[11:28] <JusticeZero> Resetting the router seems to help somewhat for a bit, we think? but that could be a perception thing.
[11:29] <gogeta> Merlin_: then you can just format the system remove any sort of infection heh
[11:29] <Aeronius> Tuplad: and you use Windows in high performance mode without needing antiviruses and stuff like that clogging up your resources
[11:29] <Aeronius> just for what you need it to do
[11:29] <Merlin_> gogeta, thats the problem, I cant get a sytem that will run
[11:29] <erUSUL> !resetpanels | Atlantic777
[11:29] <Tuplad> amanthakur: at this moment, I always dual boot. I either choose ubuntu or windows. Windows is for running adobe software and sharing movies for my xbox. I'd like to be able to start windows without rebooting. So the same partition that is on my hdd now, I would like to run!
[11:29] <gogeta> Merlin_: linux cd?
[11:29] <Merlin_> I have tried Ubuntu a bunch of times that doesnt work
[11:29] <amanthakur> JusticeZero, do you get constant replies when you ping your router?
[11:30] <JusticeZero> How would I check?
[11:30] <gogeta> Merlin_: that avg link i gave you is a ive cd
[11:30] <Tuplad> Aeronius: good thinking... guess I'll have to reinstall it again then ;(
[11:30] <Merlin_> ok I will check
[11:30] <Aeronius> Tuplad: good luck, it's for the best really
[11:30] <guampa> haha unbelievable
[11:30] <gogeta> Merlin_: at 256mb the ubuntu live cd works but ir crawls
[11:30] <Yautja_Cetanu> Can someone help me with remote desktop?
[11:31] <gogeta> Merlin_: you probly thought it was locked up
[11:31] <Aeronius> If you have 256 MB, use Puppy
[11:31] <L10n> JusticeZero: use the ping command
[11:31] <gogeta> Yautja_Cetanu: yea team viewer nice and simple works threw firewalls
[11:31] <Aeronius> or DSL
[11:31] <JusticeZero> I have the terminal up, but not familiar with ping or networks enough to know the syntax.
[11:32] <amanthakur> JusticeZero, ping your router. and notice time
[11:32] <Merlin_> what crawls? Ubuntu seemed totally locked up
[11:32] <Aeronius> I preferred puppy
[11:32] <spizti> Hi. Tried adding this repository -- https://launchpad.net/~banshee-team/+archive/ppa -- but I get a "404 Not found" when trying to load it. Should it work ?
[11:32] <Yautja_Cetanu> gogeta: I think I had it working but I selected "configure network to automatically accept connections" and now it doesn't work
[11:32] <gogeta> Merlin_: yea 256mb xubuntu and lubuntu works on that ammount of ram
[11:32] <L10n> man ping JusticeZero
[11:32] <L10n> or just type ping [ipaddress]
[11:32] <V1ntage> brb
[11:32] <Tuplad> Aeronius: thanks!
[11:32] <Aeronius> gogeta: that's what I said
[11:32] <amanthakur> JusticeZero, ping 192.168.1.1 in case your router ip is this one
[11:32] <Merlin_> geez now I have to learn how to down install something else
[11:32] <gogeta> Yautja_Cetanu: http://www.teamviewer.com/index.aspx
[11:33] <Aeronius> Tuplad: you're welcome, glad to be of service
[11:33] <Merlin_> at least I know how to get around my BIOS really fast
[11:33] <gogeta> Yautja_Cetanu: nice being its totaly cross platform
[11:33] <L10n> JusticeZero: i'm not sure how useful the data will be from ping for you.
[11:33] <Yautja_Cetanu> gogeta: ok its sorted
[11:33] <JusticeZero> Ranges from .630ms to almost .900 ms
[11:34] <gogeta> Yautja_Cetanu: thers a relly good nativ linux vnc that so fast it works in real time but i forgot the name
[11:35] <JusticeZero> yeah I don't know. It feels like the router is constipated or something in a way. *shrug*
[11:35] <gogeta> Merlin_: heh
[11:36] <blaze1024> Merlin: If your computer will boot from a flashdrive you could try Unetbooten to make a bootable flashdrive it will automaticy downlaod many distros
[11:36] <amanthakur> JusticeZero, it seems that locally your connection is fine. There may be the problems with the externel wirings or your DNS.
[11:36] <L10n> try a different router; also try upgrade the firmware
[11:36] <Merlin_> I have no flashdrive
[11:36] <gogeta> Merlin_: well if your gonna whipe all data
[11:36] <Merlin_> and I am running out of CDs
[11:36] <JusticeZero> What would be the next tests?
[11:36] <Merlin_> hmm?
[11:36] <gogeta> Merlin_: use a rw
[11:36] <Merlin_> i dont have one at the moment
[11:37] <Merlin_> I can probably get one tomorrow though
[11:37] <JusticeZero> As mentioned, if the router is taken out and computer connected direct to modem, the internet runs perfectly and blazingly fast.
[11:37] <Merlin_> I have kind of gave up for today I just need a new plan for tomorrow
[11:37] <amanthakur> JusticeZero, next test would be pinging your DNS.
[11:37] <Merlin_> hey Happy US Turkey Day to some of you
[11:37] <gogeta> Merlin_: you need a distro that will install?
[11:37] <Merlin_> yes
[11:37] <gogeta> Merlin_: are they starting up?
[11:37] <JusticeZero> How do I find that?
[11:38] <amanthakur> JusticeZero, tell me your network setup
[11:38] <gogeta> Merlin_: ot at least trying
[11:38] <gogeta> or
[11:38] <Merlin_> Ubuntu would start and then just hhhhhhhaaaaaannnnnggggg there
[11:38] <L10n> you local DNS is certain to be the router. which uses your ISPs DNS servers
[11:38] <gogeta> Merlin_: lack of ram
[11:38] <L10n> IMO pinging the DNS server will do nothing
[11:38] <gogeta> Merlin_: you try puppy
[11:38] <amanthakur> JusticeZero, i mean how many routers and modem you have in between your machine and your ISP
[11:39] <gogeta> Merlin_: but with 256mb ram many live cds whont work
[11:39] <Merlin_> so then what do I do?
[11:39] <JusticeZero> I'm one of two computers connected by cable to a Netgear WGR614 router to a modem using DSL (phone line).
[11:39] <lapion> Anyone know if there is a utility to update ubuntu in a sandbox ( update not upgrade)
[11:39] <gogeta> Merlin_: lucid puppt xbuntu and lubuntu all run on les then 256mb as well as the ubuntu alt installer
[11:39] <gogeta> puppy
[11:40] <gogeta> Merlin_: lucid puppy is puppy using ubuntu packages
[11:40] <Merlin_> I burned the wrong alt installer for ubundu
[11:40] <gogeta> Merlin_: heh
[11:40] <Merlin_> just killed 2 discs
[11:40] <paperchaser> could anyone suggest any beginners help rooms?
[11:40] <Merlin_> hold on lets see what I have left
[11:41] <gogeta> Merlin_: well if you wana go ubuntu i suggest lubuntu
[11:41] <JusticeZero> It's a wireless router, password secured, the password is a long string and i'm in an apartment complex with lots of other wireless networks that appear when I turn my laptop on.
[11:41] <gogeta> Merlin_: http://lubuntu.net/
[11:41] <mahsa_> salam bar doostan
[11:41] <Guest1046> hi, why my ubuntu is lagging ?
[11:41] <Guest1046> my pc with good performance
[11:42] <gogeta> Merlin_: its based off lxde and needs less ram to still be fast
[11:42] <mahsa_> man tarifetoono ziad 6enidam avalinbaram hast ke oomadam inja

[11:42] <scotsguy> aaaaaaaaa
[11:42] <mahsa_> komakam mikonin
[11:42] <Guest1046> i have 3gb of ram
[11:42] <L10n> Merlin_: tryi the business card iso from debian
[11:42] <gogeta> Merlin_: 196mb for live cd
[11:42] <L10n> it's only 40 mb in size and should be fine
[11:42] <gogeta> Merlin_: dso you got enough ram
[11:42] <Merlin_> could I put the AVG thing and the Linux on teh same disc?
[11:43] <Syria> Hi there, The system is showing me an error and asking me to update while there are no updates available. http://www.freeuploadimages.org/images/hcq594bm7ih9u13lt95.png
[11:43] <kabal> i lost my gnome bar(up), what i should to do to take back ?
[11:43] <gogeta> Merlin_: well if your gonna install a distro you can install avg on that distro later
[11:43] <gogeta> Merlin_: dont need 2 disk
[11:43] <Merlin_> I mean on the SAME DISC
[11:43] <gogeta> Merlin_: probly not
[11:43] <Syria> kabal right click on the another bar and choose new panel
[11:44] <gogeta> Merlin_: not enough space
[11:44] <Merlin_> so whats the vote? lubuntu? puppy? whats my choices again?
[11:44] <gogeta> Merlin_: but you whont need to
[11:44] <Guest47971> moo
[11:44] <JusticeZero> Merlin: I don't know that the usual install disk has much spare room. In any case cd's are cheap..
[11:44] <mahsa_> could you help me?
[11:44] <amanthakur> JusticeZero, it seems thats may be you have lesser bandwidth and more clients to the connection
[11:44] <kabal> syria i want back ma old bar, your help is new panel
[11:44] <Merlin_> I can get a CD RW down the street if need be
[11:44] <gogeta> Merlin_: well lubuntu will work for you
[11:44] <L10n> Merlin_: use the debian install, it will be lighter than ubuntu and more familar than puppy
[11:45] <gogeta> Merlin_: assuming you whant a full distro
[11:45] <Syria> kabal Sorry i don't know how to recover the old panel.
[11:45] <Guest47971> hi
[11:45] <L10n> mahsa_: just ask your question. unless i missed it...
[11:45] <gogeta> L10n: lbuntu is a light ubuntu  veyr fast
[11:45] <JusticeZero> We should only have two computers connected right now. and as noted, the 'i don't have to be faster than the bear' principle would make it seem unlikely i've got anyone else using the connection.
[11:45] <mahsa_> I have aproblm with uploading my files
[11:45] <samfisher> how can I fill a usb thumbdrive with random data?
[11:45] <Guest47971> syria
[11:45] <Merlin_> all I wanna be able to do is use firefox, download some TV to catch up, and my burned copy of Photoshop
[11:46] <amanthakur> JusticeZero, I have been reported this kind of problem by many people who are using wifi's because of excessiv traffic in their network.
[11:46] <gogeta> Merlin_: well lubuntu uses chrome by desfult ut you can install firefix
[11:46] <JusticeZero> Meaning?
[11:46] <Syria> Guest47971 Yes?
[11:46] <Merlin_> thats fine
[11:46] <L10n> gogeta: bet it's not lighter than debian; but it will work
[11:46] <Guest47971> hi
[11:46] <Merlin_> and why use debian?
[11:46] <Aeronius> Merlin_: http://www.linuxjournal.com/content/puppy-linux-50-%E2%80%9Clucid-puppy%E2%80%9D-released
[11:46] <gogeta> L10n: debain still uses gnome so yea its lighter
[11:47] <Guest47971> syria
[11:47] <kabal> whos got skill to gaming on ubuntu ?
[11:47] <L10n> gogeta: you fail. debian uses gnome if you install gnome
[11:47] <mahsa_> thanks
[11:47] <Merlin_> i have a desktop, does that make a difference?
[11:47] <mahsa_> but I have problem
[11:47] <Guest47971> thanks
[11:47] <Syria> Guest47971: yes dude????
[11:47] <gogeta> Merlin_: naa lubuntu only comes in desktop
[11:48] <amanthakur> JusticeZero, same as you said some1 might be using your internet connection without your concern. He/she might know your router password.
[11:48] <Whacka> Hello, I'm trying to install Ubuntu on my netbook, but the installer locks up while it's starting
[11:48] <gogeta> Merlin_: 32 bit for your machine of course
[11:48] <JusticeZero> How would I check that?
[11:48] <Guest47971> kefak
[11:48] <amanthakur> JusticeZero, try changing your passphrase and then notice your transfer rate.
[11:48] <gogeta> L10n: give it a wirl for youself
[11:48] <Syria> The system is showing me an error and asking me to update while there are no updates available. http://www.freeuploadimages.org/images/hcq594bm7ih9u13lt95.png
[11:48] <L10n> gogeta: why would i?
[11:48] <kabal> when i start game it takes low fps im using wine, who can help to resolve problem ?
[11:48] <gogeta> L10n: they built it off a base so its relly stipped down
[11:49] <amanthakur> JusticeZero, change your passphrase save it and reboot router. Then notice transfer rate.
[11:49] <Merlin_> ok I am off to look at Linux stuffs, hold on a minute
[11:49] <Merlin_> I need to create a channel called #merlinneedsanewOS
[11:50] <L10n> Merlin_: yeah you kind of do heh :)
[11:50] <gogeta> Merlin_: lol well for a all out ubuntu install lbuntu will suit that old machine
[11:50] <kabal> when i start game it takes low fps im using wine, how can i resolve a problem ?
[11:51] <Merlin_> ok gogeta says LUBUNTU, and L1on says DEBIAN, can anyone break the vote?
[11:51] <ltlkosh> NetBSD :-P
[11:51] <gogeta> Merlin_: ubuntu is based off debain
[11:52] <gogeta> Merlin_: its just the old school who is better argmunt nobody will ever win that
[11:52] <Merlin_> so basically it's icecream vs. gelato = same damned thing?
[11:52] <gogeta> Merlin_: stick to what you like
[11:52] <gogeta> Merlin_: for the most part
[11:52] <Merlin_> I have never used Linux a day in my life
[11:52] <ltlkosh> Merlin_: I'd do lubuntu (also, gelato is way better than ice cream)
[11:52] <L10n> gogeta: wrong, im telling him the business card install. using that he will be able to only install exactly what he needs. making it extreamly light weight
[11:52] <amanthakur> kabal, use efficient hardware....:P
[11:53] <gogeta> L10n: same thing if he used the ubuntu minmul cd
[11:53] <gogeta> L10n: mini iso
[11:53] <Merlin_> it is kosh, there is a place with 218 flavors of gelato under one roof, just a few blocks away from my house
[11:53] <ltlkosh> Merlin_: you sir are a lucky, lucky man
[11:53] <Westz> quick q, just wondering. should be the same for me even on fedora. once i've turned a terminal into a man page, is there a way to turn it back to a terminal?
[11:53] <g___> hi, is there an application i can use where i can specify a size, and it'll create a ramdisk of that size?
[11:53] <Merlin_> haha
[11:53] <gogeta> Merlin_: for a first timer i suggest my option
[11:53] <bindi> Westz: press q
[11:53] <Merlin_> ok cool
[11:53] <amanthakur> gogeta, it looks like the question "who came first, egg or hen"....:P
[11:53] <L10n> gogeta: i agree
[11:54] <ltlkosh> Merlin_: back to topic though, if you are just starting to use Linux Lubuntu is going to be easier than a minimal debian install
[11:54] <g___> amanthakur: that's been answered now, the chicken did
[11:54] <st> business card installs require a lot of knoledge to be made usable
[11:54] <L10n> Merlin_: take the easy way; learning wtf you are doing is way too hard
[11:54] <Merlin_> alright cool
[11:54] <amanthakur> g___, even chicken came from hatched eggs....:P
[11:54] <g___> Merlin_: take the easy way - use windows ;)
[11:54] <gogeta> g___: he blew it up
[11:55] <g___> amanthakur: scientists were looking at how hens create egg shells, and they discovered that the hen had to come first
[11:55] <Merlin_> hopefully my dlink usb connector will still work after the new restore
[11:55] <g___> gogeta: ?
[11:55] <gogeta> g___: how does any windows user brake windows
[11:55] <sebastia> bys
[11:55] <JusticeZero> Some form of hen had to lay the egg, but it may have been outside of the bounds of what we presently classify as being a 'chicken'. so. egg.
[11:55] <g___> by pressing the brake pedal? ;)
[11:55] <gogeta> g___: maleware
[11:56] <g___> oh
[11:56] <bindi> maleware
[11:56] <bindi> lol
[11:56] <amanthakur> g___, lolzzz....admins would surprised that we are disscussing hens/chickens instead of ubuntu....:P
[11:56] <g___> is femaleware porn?
[11:56] <bilalakhtar> !lol
[11:56] <bilalakhtar> !language | g___
[11:56] <gogeta> g___: shh probly how he got it
[11:56] <JusticeZero> My daughter trashed Windows on my old laptop a couple times in a month. it's not hard.
[11:56] <bilalakhtar> !ot | JusticeZero
[11:56] <g___> so, back to topic, how do i create a ramdisk?
[11:56] <g___> ie, a nice little application
[11:57] <Westz> g___ no thats femalenotware
[11:57] <bilalakhtar> Please can we stop this discussion?
[11:57] <gogeta> g___: i knoe you can mount the tmpfs in ram threw fstab
[11:57] <bilalakhtar> This is a Support-only channel
[11:57] <sasori2501> ok, so anyone know how to get wireless working on 1215n?  10.10
[11:57] <Gnea> g___: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=182764
[11:57] <Westz> did you try fwcutter?
[11:57] <GhostWolf> does anyone know why on sites that lets you use a webcam when i have mine connected it shows i don't have one?
[11:58] <Westz> how do i respond to someone? im really new to IRC
[11:58] <bilalakhtar> Westz: This channel is for Ubuntu-only support questions, please ask that in #ubuntu-offtopic
[11:59] <cheater01> help! ubuntu fails to start
[11:59] <g___> Gnea: thanks, i'm totally surprised no one has written a little applicatino to do it
[11:59] <cheater01> i have cloned the hdd to a new disk and new laptop. i get grub (had to reinstall it), and it boots up ubuntu, but it ends up 'hanging' on a black screen. if i press the power button, i get the animated ubuntu shutdown sequence.
[11:59] <cheater01> so it would seem that X is having problems.
[11:59] <gogeta> cheater01: probly needs a video driver or something
[12:00] <Westz> sasori, did you try fwcutter for wireless?
[12:00] <Westz> i went without wireless for months before i realizedc i needed firmware for my card
[12:00] <amanthakur> g___, http://www.vanemery.com/Linux/Ramdisk/ramdisk.html
[12:00] <cheater01> gogeta, the previous laptop had an integrated intel graphic card, this one has got an integrated one too
[12:00] <Merlin_> can someone throw up the link to lubuntu?
[12:00] <cheater01> uses intel 943..
[12:00] <gogeta> Westz: probly a better chance of it working threw nidswrapper
[12:00] <st> Merlin_, it's dead
[12:00] <bilalakhtar> Merlin_: lubuntu.org
[12:00] <bilalakhtar> st: no it isn't
[12:00] <Gnea> g___: feel free to
[12:00] <cheater01> gogeta, how do i check if it needs a special driver?
[12:01] <tangent3> what fs should i use when installing ubuntu onto an SSD?
[12:01] <gogeta> cheater01: a intel 943 should work out of the box umm
[12:01] <skema> hi
[12:01] <skema> !list
[12:01] <cheater01> gogeta, must be something else then
[12:01] <cheater01> might not even be X, might be something else
[12:01] <GhostWolf> does anyone know if theres a way to enable my webcam for online use?
[12:01] <Merlin_> http://www.lubuntu.org
[12:01] <g___> Gnea: there is no /boot/grub/menu.lst it fails at step one!
[12:02] <gogeta> tangent3: well they say the least write to disk a non swap ext2 but probly blow up your fs fast so i uses a non swap ext4 modded to writeback journiling only
[12:02] <g___> Gnea: that's what i love about opensource, it assumes that every user is competent enough to develop an application...
[12:02] <Westz> gogeta: i generally assume anyone who hasnt gotten wireless working has tried nidswrapper.... its like the first hit on google for "ubuntu wireless"
[12:02] <histo> g___: /etc/default/grub
[12:02] <histo> g___: if you are using grub2
[12:02] <g___> oh
[12:03] <amanthakur> histo, he might be using grub2 only....
[12:03] <Gnea> g___: it's a little old, you'll obviously need to locate things according to the current specs
[12:03] <histo> Gnea: many things in the wiki are old and need updated
[12:03] <g___> Gnea: well, believe it or not, i have no idea about the "current specs"
[12:03] <sasori2501> anyone??? help would be greaaaaaaaaaatly appreciated
[12:03] <tangent3> gogeta: ok.. thanks
[12:03] <Gnea> g___: ah, wasn't sure about that
[12:03] <Merlin_> @#$#@$#@#@$%%^^^$#$#@ stupid computer
[12:03] <Westz> sasori, what have you tried alread?
[12:03] <Westz> *already
[12:04] <gogeta> tangent3: to mod ext4 to writeback its a command and fstab edit for ubuntu
[12:04] <valadares> why does the network manager pppoeconf stop working?
[12:04] <histo> g___: grub 2 is a lot different than previous versions.
[12:04] <gogeta> tangent3: you dont need the extra grub command anymore
[12:04] <g___> histo: /etc/default/grub looks nothing like that file
[12:04] <histo> g___: what are you trying to do?
[12:04] <g___> histo: yeah, so i guess i've got to look elsewhere
[12:05] <tangent3> gogeta: i'm guesing btrfs is not a good idea?
[12:05] <amanthakur> histo, grub.cfg would not work here?
[12:05] <g___> histo: ultimately, i'd like to be able to open an app, specify 500mb, and it'd create a ramdisk of that size and mount it
[12:05] <sasori2501> Westz: tried the broadcom STA wireless driver
[12:05] <valadares> why the pppoeconf does the network manager stop of working?
[12:05] <histo> amanthakur: I know
[12:05] <sasori2501> Westz: although it created the sub heading for wireless networks, non display
[12:05] <amanthakur> histo, i am just asking you...:)
[12:05] <histo> g___: Don't know if such an app exists
[12:06] <gogeta> tangent3: i found it to crwal on my ssd maybe you will have better luck but you will need to make a boot partation ext 4 grub can direct boot btrfs yet
[12:06] <gogeta> cant
[12:06] <histo> g___: let me do some digging
[12:06] <g___> thanks histo, i've looked in the repos and nothing
[12:06] <tangent3> ok i guess i'll stick with ext4
[12:07] <gogeta> tangent3: well the commands easy once install just do  sudo tune2fs -o journal_data_writeback /dev/hda1
[12:07] <GhostWolf> i need help with my webcam and linux please, i can't get sites to reconise my webcam while it is plugged in
[12:07] <histo> g___: You used to be able to just append a ramdisk line to the kernel correct?
[12:07] <tangent3> gogeta: ok and no need to add anythign to /etc/fstab after?
[12:07] <gogeta> tangent3: yea dev/hda1 / ext3 defaults,errors=remount-ro,noatime,auto,rw,dev,exec,suid,nouser,data=writeback 0 1
[12:08] <gogeta> tangent3: or course it will be a uuid now
[12:08] <Merlin_> omg lubuntu is going to take forever....
[12:08] <tangent3> gogeta: ok thanks
[12:08] <gogeta> tangent3: baascily add noatime and data=writeback to the options
[12:08] <Merlin_> Yay I have 2 hours to kill
[12:08] <sasori2501> Westz: ermm.... i think i might have just got it, woot!
[12:09] <histo> g___: you could do something like mkdir /tmp/ramdisk && chmod 777 /tmp/ramdisk && mount -t tmpfs -o size=500M tmpfs /tmp/ramdisk
[12:09] <gogeta> tangent3: it prbly only have error=remount in the options
[12:09] <Syria>  I am getting an error message telling me that update information is outdated in a time there is no updates available!
[12:09] <tangent3> with 8 GB of ram is it ok to disable swap?
[12:09] <Merlin_> how do you get a command list? I forget
[12:09] <gogeta> tangent3: just add noattime.data=writeback there
[12:09] <g___> histo http://www.linuxscrew.com/2010/03/24/fastest-way-to-create-ramdisk-in-ubuntulinux/
[12:10] <histo> g___: yeap same thing
[12:10] <gogeta> tangent3: and do not add a swappartation
[12:10] <g___> line for line ;)
[12:10] <nettworker> Hello
[12:10] <nettworker> My computer froze

[12:10] <histo> nettworker: get a hammer
[12:10] <histo> !webcam | GhostWolf

[12:11] <histo> nettworker: can you try hitting ctrl+alt+F1 see if you get a tty
[12:11] <g___> i saw a nice 1tb ssd for only $4400 :(
[12:11] <tangent3> gogeta: i have a second drive, of course, just wondering if i can do without swap with 8gb
[12:11] <nettworker> histo: No response, the crusor is flying crazy
[12:11]  * histo doesn't understand why an ssd would cost more than something that has mechanical parts
[12:11] <histo> nettworker: try ctrl+alt+F2
[12:12] <gogeta> tangent3: yea just dont make a swap patation
[12:12] <histo> nettworker: if still no response power button it is
[12:12] <nettworker> histo: Managed to log in
[12:12] <gogeta> tangent3: or use the other drive as swap
[12:12] <nettworker> Something is using 8GB ram...
[12:12] <chull> (chalcedony) my husband seems to have a 'space warp' from open office to yahoo mail. and korganizer calendar, it just -- goes!  he clicks on 'default' and it goes to something.. ideas?
[12:12] <histo> nettworker: kill the app thats eating ram
[12:12] <Westz> alright im goin to look for a slower less tech chat... ttyl
[12:12] <histo> nettworker: use top or killall appname
[12:12] <nettworker> VLC is using something like 7GB ram...
[12:12] <histo> nettworker: killall vlc
[12:13] <Merlin_> do people just live online here ?
[12:13] <histo> Merlin_: pretty much
[12:13] <Merlin_> there is a lot of people logged in
[12:13] <coz_> Merlin_,  practically
[12:13] <bazhang> Merlin_, in #ubuntu-offtopic
[12:13] <gogeta> tangent3: then use ext2 or adjust ext4 a bit to use minal joulning
[12:13] <histo> Merlin_: i've been here since nov 20th
[12:13] <d4n1s> hi
[12:13] <Merlin_> have you UP living on Redbull since then?

[12:13] <d4n1s> and I am new to linux
[12:14] <d4n1s> plz heelp
[12:14] <histo> !info gcc
[12:14] <Merlin_> you should have said yes, I would have been impressed
[12:14] <histo> d4n1s: any reason you need such an old version?
[12:14] <bazhang> Merlin_, please take chat to #ubuntu-offtopic
[12:14] <d4n1s> yeah, I am taking part to a programing competition and it says all programs will be compiled with this version
[12:14] <d4n1s> I have built my program on windows visual studio
[12:14] <GhostWolf> histo do you know if there are any drivers for webcams for meerkat maverick?
[12:14] <chull> it won't let him click to open a new writer page.. it's 10.04 and is this a bug or what?
[12:14] <d4n1s> but I want to compile it with this version and upload it so that I wont have any errors
[12:15] <histo> d4n1s: you'd have to build it from source most likely.
[12:15] <histo> !gcc > d4n1s
[12:15] <histo> GhostWolf: drivers would be built in kernel
[12:15] <histo> GhostWolf: what type of webcam do you have?
[12:15] <Merlin_> so if I can get a load screen for Linux, I'm doing that much right? right ?
[12:15] <d4n1s> and where can I find the gcc 3.3.4 source code?
[12:15] <Merlin_> i just have a version my computer cant support
[12:15] <GhostWolf> histo believe its the quickcam from logitech i don't see anything on it besides the name logitech

[12:21] <Dr_Willis> !manual | jonny
[12:21] <GhostWolf> histo i tried but i was having issues with it
[12:21] <gogeta> sysanptic
[12:21] <bazhang> jonny, piracy is not supported here
[12:21] <histo> GhostWolf: issues with what?
[12:21] <GhostWolf> histo the flash squared that is
[12:21] <histo> GhostWolf: ahh
[12:21] <coz_> jonny,   firs place to look is under Applications    ubuntu sfotware center
[12:21] <shmup> well i suppose i'll ask this question now, in regards to locate
[12:21] <Dr_Willis> jonny:  hulu works very well here.
[12:21] <shmup> it didn't know the command (i'm on a vps)
[12:21] <histo> GhostWolf: well either way for sites you will need webcamstudio.
[12:21] <shmup> so i just apt-get install locate
[12:21] <shmup> is that the name of whatever it is that locates? :P
[12:21] <GhostWolf> histo like gave me errors when installing, but i do have flash working now tho
[12:22] <GhostWolf> ok i'll check to see if that helps histo
[12:22] <histo> shmup: it should be installed by default
[12:22] <shmup> it wasn't :/
[12:22] <shmup> 10.04 server
[12:22] <gogeta> bazhang: love how thats a insta priacy
[12:22] <histo> shmup: okay well after it's installed sudo updatedb then you can locate something
[12:22] <bazhang> gogeta, pardon?
[12:22] <gogeta> bazhang: movies,games
[12:22] <histo> jonny: you just download them as you would in windows
[12:23] <histo> jonny: games can be found in Applications > Ubuntu software center
[12:23] <shmup> histo: nothing, so i shall create one.
[12:23] <histo> shmup: let me check hold up
[12:23] <shmup> histo: i'd like a nice vanilla one to start with.
[12:23] <shmup> histo: mk.
[12:23] <gogeta> bazhang: guess you for got the oss games youtube netflicks etc
[12:24] <bazhang> gogeta, lets move on please
[12:24] <histo> shmup: /usr/share/vim/vimrc and /usr/share/vim/vimrc.tiny
[12:24] <gogeta> lol
[12:24] <shmup> hmm...
[12:24] <histo> shmup: or you can find examples online
[12:24] <shmup> histo: i wonder why you had 'em by default?
[12:24] <shmup> histo: but you're more or less telling me they have to go there? or just that you have 'em there and i should look.
[12:24] <histo> shmup: I don't know what version of ubuntu you are running but locate should have been installed
[12:25] <histo> shmup: I would look there. they are there on my install be default
[12:25] <Dr_Willis> !find updatedb
[12:25] <shmup> histo: wow i do have 'em..
[12:25] <shmup> histo: i wonder why locate didn't yield anything
[12:25] <gynter> Hei, can't all wireless card being bridged?
[12:25] <Dr_Willis> shmup:  it uses a database.. updated daily
[12:25] <shmup> histo: i had to sudo :P
[12:25] <histo> Dr_Willis: it updates the database for locate
[12:26] <Dr_Willis> sudo updatedb, then use locate
[12:26] <gogeta> gynter: dunno i knoe some do not support ap mode i assume all can do ad-hoc
[12:26] <histo> Dr_Willis: well after it was freshly installed. It has a cron job to run every so often so most people never need to run it. Say if you new files extracted you woul dhave to updatedb before locate could see them.
[12:26] <shmup> Dr_Willis histo: well it's cool and all that vimrc is in those directories, so i have 'em but... can't i have vim use a .vimrc from /home ?
[12:26] <gynter> What i'm trying to achive is that I get my connection from wlan0 and I want to bridge it with eth0
[12:27] <testing_> :/
[12:27] <histo> shmup: I believe vim's default behavior should use .vimrc .
[12:27] <shmup> shmup:  i meant /home/shmup/.vimrc
[12:27] <shmup> just having it read from a different dir
[12:27] <histo> shmup: you may want to join #vim for more help
[12:27] <gogeta> gynter: why would you bridge wireless to a wired
[12:27] <shmup> word ^ thanks
[12:28] <gynter> gogeta, because I don't have long cable :) temporary solution
[12:28] <gogeta> gynter: umm
[12:28] <gynter> ap -> laptop -> desktop
[12:28] <gogeta> gynter: so just use wireless
[12:29] <gynter> desktop doens't got wireless
[12:29] <gogeta> gynter: or do you mean ics to another pc
[12:29] <histo> !ics J| gynter
[12:29] <histo> !ics | gynter
[12:29] <gogeta> gynter: its not bridging you whant you whant ics
[12:30] <gogeta> gynter: go to network-manager in system slect auto eth0 in the ipv4 setting set it to shared with other pcs
[12:30] <gynter> gogeta, the idea is not to make a gateway from my laptop, I don't want 2 routers
[12:30] <gogeta> gynter: you have enabled ics
[12:30] <GhostWolf> histo do you know if the webcamstudio works with ubuntu 10.10?
[12:30] <alex88> i have to patch /drivers/ata/ahci.c b/drivers/ata/ahci.c to make my hdd working. is possible just to build the module?
[12:30] <histo> GhostWolf: don't know I used it once in 10.04
[12:30] <Dr_Willis> shmup:  it uses ~/.vimrc by default i thought. it has for me.
[12:30] <GhostWolf> histo ok cause on the site to isntall it just says for 10.04 and earlier
[12:30] <gogeta> gynter: well to share to te desktop thats how you do it
 shmup: /home/shmup is your personal directory, so you'll have to create your own vimrc, of course :>
[12:30] <GhostWolf> histo should it install same way you think?
[12:30] <shmup> yeah, i just had to create my own i guess.. makes sense
[12:31] <histo> GhostWolf: correct if you follow the link I sent you.
[12:31] <GhostWolf> histo ok
[12:31] <gogeta> gynter: briding only makes 2 card act as one
[12:32] <gogeta> gynter: like if you have 2 internet connections
[12:32] <gogeta> gynter: to share a connection with another pc you use ics
[12:34] <novato_br> how is it last ubuntu version?
[12:34] <d4n1s> I have downloaded the source of gcc 3.3.4 and runed the config on terminal and before that I installed all the programs listed on the compile tutorial on ubuntu webpage
[12:34] <d4n1s> what do I do next?
[12:34] <d4n1s> how do I run the compiler?
[12:34] <histo> novato_br: okay
[12:34] <novato_br> I'll get it
[12:34] <david506> Hi, I am running a basic version of ubuntu ( bootstrap, openssh, lighttpd, php and mysql ). When I hit the power button, I want "shutdown -h now" to be called, how do I do this ?
[12:35] <novato_br> david506, you must be root user
[12:35] <histo> !gcc > d4n1s
[12:35] <novato_br> or you must have to root's privilege
[12:35] <Dr_Willis> david506:  check /etc/init/ i seem to recall somthing related to that in there. but i never looked into it much
[12:36] <histo> david506: install power management
[12:36] <david506> powermgmt-base ?
[12:37] <david506> apmd ?
[12:37] <david506> pm-utils ?
[12:37] <Dr_Willis> david506:  thisis close --> control-alt-delete.conf   - it controlsl what happens when ya hit alt-ctrl-del. there may be a simile rthing for power down
[12:37] <histo> david506: how'd you install from ubuntu minimal?
[12:37] <histo> david506: it should have power management
[12:38] <histo> david506: but I would start with pm-utils
[12:38] <david506> debootstrap /media/mydisk, than I put it in the other machine and ran "apt-get install openssh php5-cgi lighttpd"
[12:38] <histo> david506: unless you want to go lighter
[12:39] <david506> powermgmt-base was installed on my desktop, so I assume it's that one
[12:39] <histo> david506: you should have pm-utils also i'm sure they depend on each other
[12:40] <david506> pm-utils requires powermgmt-base
[12:40] <histo> david506: exactly
[12:40] <Guest49186> hey whs thr
[12:41] <david506> my daughter has awoken, I'll do this later. thanks
[12:41] <d4n1s> I have a problem with make
[12:41] <d4n1s> it says
[12:41] <d4n1s> make: *** No targets specified and no makefile found.  Stop
[12:42] <bilalakhtar> !app-devel | d4n1s
[12:42] <bilalakhtar> !devel | d4n1s
[12:42] <d4n1s> !app-devel
[12:42] <ikonia> d4n1s: what are you trying to build ?
[12:42] <d4n1s> gcc 3.3.4
[12:42] <ikonia> d4n1s: why ?
[12:42] <d4n1s> for a programing competition
[12:43] <bilalakhtar> d4n1s: please ask such Qs in #ubuntu-devel or #ubuntu-app-devel
[12:43] <ikonia> bonhoffer: no
[12:43] <cong> i can't use bluetooth
[12:43] <ikonia> d4n1s: do not ask in those channels
[12:43] <ikonia> d4n1s: step back and explain what you want to do and why,
[12:43] <bonhoffer> ikonia: no?
[12:43] <ikonia> d4n1s: putting an additional compiler on the machine, esepcially when building from source is very risky
[12:43] <bonhoffer> to what question?
[12:43] <ikonia> bonhoffer: sorry, that was for bilalakhtar but he quit as I was tab completing
[12:44] <bonhoffer> got it
[12:44] <d4n1s> ok... well I want to install gcc 3.3.4 because that is the compiler I am advised from the competition to use, if I wont the program I will make might greatly different especially when I am giving a specific running time of the program
[12:44] <juniorbnusc> ola
[12:44] <d4n1s> also on the finals of the competition I will have to use it
[12:45] <ikonia> d4n1s: do you understand how to build software on a linux platform ?
[12:45] <d4n1s> I am new to linux but I have read this link https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CompilingSoftware
[12:45] <d4n1s> It seems I can't apply it
[12:45] <alex88> what should i do if i have a patch for a bug?
[12:45] <ikonia> d4n1s: let me have a quick look, as what your asking for is not something for "begeinners", it's quite dangerous to your system and not easy
[12:46] <ikonia> alex88: find the bug and submit the patch on launchpad.net
[12:46] <juniorbnusc> #ubuntu-br
[12:46] <d4n1s> don't worry I am on a virtual box anyways
[12:46] <juniorbnusc> join #ubuntu-br
[12:46] <Dr_Willis> d4n1s:  may as well just install a version of ubuntu that has that compliler included by default then.
[12:46] <alex88> ikonia, it's a patch for a kernel..just put on the file and flag "this contains the patch"?
[12:46] <ikonia> alex88: yes, but keep in mind a kernel patch will be a serious patch to progress
[12:46] <d4n1s> good idea dr.willis
[12:46] <d4n1s> but which version has?
[12:46] <ikonia> Dr_Willis: much better idea
[12:47] <alex88> ikonia, it's just an id add to a driver.. btw, i'll do that..and others will do the rest
[12:47] <ikonia> alex88: others will do what ?
[12:48]  * amal029 is new to IRC
[12:48] <alex88> ikonia, well, if i submit patch that's not all..others have to check it and port to updates right?
[12:48] <cong> help
[12:48] <ikonia> alex88: well, you'll have to do it, or work to get others to do it for you, it won't just happen
[12:48] <ikonia> cong: with what
[12:48] <cong> my bluetooth doesn't work
[12:49] <alex88> ikonia, you told me to upload patch to launchpad.. the bug is 658521..what else?
[12:49] <cong> i have been told bluetooth disable
[12:50] <cong> i click button to turn on bluetooth, but it doesn't work
[12:50] <ikonia> alex88: needs to be tested and the submitted through the bug process, so you nee to either test it, or get someone to test it for you
[12:51] <ChaoRhi> !bluetooth | cong
[12:51] <alex88> ikonia, i'm testing it..if it will work i'll upload to the bug attached with dmesg..
[12:53] <Dittersdorf> Hi all. Is this the right place to ask about LIRC?

[12:54] <alex88> ikonia, the file that i need to edit is /drivers/ata/ahci.c b/drivers/ata/ahci.c..is possible that it's just a module so i just build that?
[12:54] <peetra> How do I enable showing tabs and spaces in Gedit?
[12:55] <SkyRocknRoll_> hi
[12:56] <guampa> peetra: it's an extension, check in prefs->extensions

[13:00] <Deuz> i try to execute a file but i get a "no such file" error
[13:00] <Deuz> while i can see the file when i do "ls".. ;(
[13:00] <Dr_Willis> Deuz:  and the exact command you are using is?
[13:01] <Deuz> i just want to execute a file (hipp)
[13:01] <Deuz> by typing ./hipp
[13:01] <Deuz> while in the directory
[13:01] <Dr_Willis> Deuz:  then either its not executable.. or somthing else is wrong.
[13:01] <Dr_Willis> ls -al hipp
[13:01] <Sheepherd> hey guys i got a lil issue with my partitions. i tried moving an empty one with my backup partition so its aligned to my ubuntu partition which is a requirement to extend latter one (i think)
[13:02] <Deuz> @Dr_Willis, that finds the file
[13:02] <moon350> hi
[13:02] <Sheepherd> i started the job but after some minutes my bro closed my laptop so it shutted down somehow... now both partitions are corrupted
[13:02] <Dr_Willis> Deuz:  and.. the permissions on it are?
[13:02] <Sheepherd> now ive been using ddrescue to try rescuing my data
[13:03] <RenatoSilva> if I want to make some ~/file I consider useless a link to something in /tmp, is there any default directory inside /tmp I can use? /tmp/orbit-$user or /tmp/tracker-$user, maybe?
[13:03] <Sheepherd> but that tool cant find any errors
[13:03] <Deuz> when i rightclick on it, it says it's executable, permissions are -rwxrwxrwx
[13:03] <sbeck_> Shhepherd, try testdisk
[13:03] <sbeck_> Sheepherd, and to recover files try photorec.
[13:04] <Sheepherd> ah
[13:04] <Sheepherd> can i use chkdisk on iso files?
[13:04] <sbeck_> Sheepherd, chkdsk on a ISO file ?
[13:04] <Sheepherd> testdisk sorry
[13:04] <Deuz> i putted the file now in /bin/ and when i try to run "hipp", the message i get is exacly "bash: /bin/hipp: No such file or directory"
[13:04] <Deuz> while it is clearly there.. xp
[13:05] <smerz> Deuz, make it executable
[13:05] <sbeck_> Sheepherd, but why do you want to use it on a ISO file ?
[13:05] <Dr_Willis> Deuz:  and 'file /bin/hipp' says anything about it?
[13:05] <smerz> chmod +x /bin/hipp
[13:05] <Dr_Willis> Deuz:  and where did this executable come from?
[13:05] <smerz> and yeah
[13:05] <smerz> file /bin/hipp         i second that. check what kind of file it is heh
[13:05] <Sheepherd> sbeck_,  cuz i deleted those partitions after having copied them to an iso with ddrescue
[13:06] <Deuz> from a zip file an assistent (from university) sended me, it's a prolog version - i'm going to do file
[13:06] <Sheepherd> so i could do what ive wanted to do from begin with
[13:06] <Deuz> ahh it says "ELF 32-bit executable"
[13:06] <Deuz> i'm running 64bit
[13:06] <Deuz> that might be the problem?
[13:07] <Dittersdorf> testing 123
[13:08] <Deuz> hipp: ELF 32-bit LSB executable, intel 80386, version 1 (SYSV),  dynamically linked (uses shared libs), for GNU/Linux 2.2.0, stripped
[13:08] <sbeck_> Sheepherd, could you message me ?

[13:23] <martin____> how do I get the DVI port on my docking station to work? The D-SUB works, but not the DVI. I already tried to "Detect the Monitors", no luck.
[13:24] <Dr_Willis> martin____:  what chipset? was it plugged in when the pc powered up?
[13:25] <hen> zainstalowałem ubuntu v.11.04 i ona chodzi!!!!!!!! Mimo , że to jest  "alfa"
[13:25] <gul> Hello

[13:25] <martin____> Dr_Willis: Intel Corporation Mobile GM965/GL960 Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 0c), and yes.
[13:26] <Dr_Willis> martin____:  for the last intel based laptop i had. I had to use the special FN keys to toggle the monitors. thebn it started working right. but thaat wasent with a dock
[13:26] <histo> no
[13:26] <st> hen, it's still just maverick now
[13:26] <histo> gul: no
[13:26] <gul> I want help to configure cairo dock
[13:27] <histo> gul: right click on it
[13:27] <gul> OK
[13:27] <gul> i want the one there on its official website
[13:27] <gul> i can't watch video
[13:27] <gul> so need document
[13:27] <histo> gul: huh?
[13:27] <gps23> how can i disable ssh and rpcbind services? "sudo update-rc.d ssh disable" is not working: "System start/stop links for /etc/init.d/ssh do not exist"
[13:27] <histo> gul: what is your native language?
[13:27] <gul> yup!
[13:27] <gul> so any help
[13:28] <gul> native is Punjabi
[13:28] <gul> but know English
[13:28] <gul> hindi
[13:28] <FloodBot4> gul: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
[13:28] <ChaoRhi> !codecs | gul
[13:28] <Dr_Willis> gul:  Cairo dock has a web site...
[13:28] <gps23> gul: mine too Punjabi :)
[13:28] <histo> gps23: use remove not disable
[13:28] <histo> gps23: for example sudo update-rc.d -f ssh remove
[13:29] <Dr_Willis> gps23:  ubuntu uses upstart now a days. that command is for the older sysv type services..
[13:29] <Dr_Willis> gps23:  check /etc/init/ rename the ssh.conf (if its exists) tobe somthing like ssh.DONTRUN
[13:29] <gps23> histo: i don't want to remove links permanently, i just want to disable the services so that i can start them whenever i need them
[13:29] <Dr_Willis> gul:  explore cairo dock and play with it.. I dont recall ever needing a video to figure it out.
[13:29] <sbeck_> I have to go.
[13:29] <sbeck_> Bye
[13:30] <Dr_Willis> gps23:  sudo service SERVICENAME stop   to temp disable it.
[13:30] <martin____> Dr_Willis: well, the function key has some effect, but it drives the d-sub port, not the dvi. I'm reading man xrandr for hints.
[13:30] <histo> gps23: -n -f  The -n would hsow you what it will do.
[13:30] <gul> Ok
[13:30] <administrator> 大家好

[13:31] <Guest35488> 你们好
[13:31] <roland> hi, anyone knows how to enable natty narwhal repositories?
[13:31] <gps23> Dr_Willis: using  "sudo service SERVICENAME stop" would run it on next reboot, i want to disable it permanently, but don't want to remove ssh
[13:31] <Dr_Willis> roland:  see #ubuntu+1
[13:32] <gps23> Dr_Willis: so that when i need ssh i can start it myself
[13:32] <Dr_Willis> gps23:  then rename the /etc/init/ file like i said beforhand.
[13:32] <Dr_Willis> gps23:  or edit the file to not auto run perhaps.
[13:32] <Dr_Willis> gul:  ask a clear question to the channel to see who can help. Dont msg people.
[13:32] <gul> OK
[13:33] <gul> I want help to configure Cairo dock
[13:33] <gps23> Dr_Willis: the thing is, there is no link of ssh or rpc in any  rc?.d, but still ssh and rpc are running
[13:33] <gul> any documentation available
[13:33] <Dr_Willis> gps23:  did you look in /etc/init ?
[13:33] <gps23> Dr_Willis: can't understand how to disable them
[13:33] <Dr_Willis> gps23:  sysv is being replaced by Upstart.. thats why.
[13:33] <Dr_Willis> !upstart

[13:36] <gps23> Dr_Willis: and there is an exec at end, but changing this file seems like an ugly way to do it. More importantly i want to understand how is ssh running when its not linked in rc?.d

[13:37] <greenIT> sry, package dependencies
[13:37] <YiMing> Guest35488: 私聊？
[13:37] <Dr_Willis> gps23:  upstart is replaceing sysv slowly in every new release more and more..  Most all services are ported to upstart these days
[13:37] <histo> greenIT: purge
[13:37] <histo> greenIT: sudo apt-get purege packagename
[13:37] <Dr_Willis> gps23:  the few services that are using the rc.d stuff. are actually links to upstart scripts for the most part.

[13:38] <greenIT> histo: i already tried this... but when i want to install the package from the normal sources, it says that it depends on some packages, but they won't be installed
[13:38] <histo> !ch | Guest35488
[13:38] <YiMing> ubottu: He types chinese character ;)
[13:39] <histo> greenIT: purge will remove the package and all it's configuration

[13:40] <greenIT> histo: i tried to install the latest eclipse... therefore i used a ppa which is offering it, but i didn't read that it was a debian-ppa... then i removed the source, purged eclipse and now i can't install it anymore :(
[13:40] <histo> greenIT: did you remove the ppa?
[13:40] <gps23> Dr_Willis: hmmmm, i recently started using Ubuntu, used Debian earlier. thats why whole confusion. thanks for the explanation. i will read about Ubuntu specific stuff
[13:41] <greenIT> histo: well.. i deleted it from the /etc/apt/sources.list.d/ directory
[13:41] <Dr_Willis> gps23:  upstart is getting used by some other disrtos i recall also.
[13:41] <histo> greenIT: then apt-get update and try apt-get install eclipse
[13:41] <greenIT> histo: doesn't work
[13:41] <gps23> Dr_Willis: in debian i simple changed s to k and ## to 100-## and things always worked
[13:42] <gps23> Dr_Willis: but here i didn't found links thats why...
[13:42] <YiMing> Hi,everyone.I'm looking for a program or a way of calculate my network traffic, who can help me?
[13:42] <gps23> Dr_Willis: s/simple/simply/
[13:43] <histo> greenIT: What is the error?  Can you pastebin the output and make sure you disable any other third party repos
[13:43] <greenIT> histo: it says that it depends on: eclipse-jdt (>= 3.5.2-6ubuntu1.1) and eclipse-pde (>= 3.5.2-6ubuntu1.1), but they shall not be installed
[13:43] <histo> !info eclipse-jdt
[13:43] <histo> greenIT: well they are there in universe make sure that is enabled
[13:44] <greenIT> histo: at my software-sources there are main, universe and multiverse checked
[13:45] <histo> greenIT: and uncheck any third parties and update
[13:45] <cong> ubottu is a bot?
[13:45] <greenIT> histo: ok, i try it...
[13:46] <histo> cong: yes
[13:47] <cong> histo help me
[13:47] <greenIT> histo: still the same... i don't know if it is mandatory, but it also writes: E:broken packages
[13:47] <histo> cong: did you follow the instructions from ubottu
[13:47] <histo> greenIT: what are the broken packages?
[13:48] <greenIT> histo: where are they listed? right above?
[13:48] <cong> This document applies to Ubuntu 8.10 (Hardy Heron) and earlier versions of Ubuntu that come with Bluez3. Ubuntu 9.04 (Jaunty Jackalope) and later versions come with Bluez4, which is completely different.
[13:48] <Dr_Willis> gps23:  sysv = going bye bye.. :) its that simple.
[13:48] <cong> my ubuntu version is 10.10
[13:48] <histo> cong: okay well I know nothing of bluetooth so perhaps someone else can help you.
[13:49] <cong> never mind thank you
[13:50] <Dr_Willis> I dont even have any BT gizmos to play with at this time.

[13:54] <Stava> I just installed ubuntu server, and I know networking worked because it were downloading applications during the installation process. But after system boot, eth0 is up but has no ip. dmesg says something about eth0 not being ready, if thats relevant
[13:56] <histo> Stava: sudo dhclient
[13:56] <nagchampa> wtf? I've downloaded the ati proprietary driver, not to install it necessarily, i wanted to build a package for my system, so i ran the installer without being root, and stepped through the process but it somehow got root privaliges
[13:56] <Stava> i'll try that
[13:56]  * hashashin nas
[13:57] <nagchampa> i've opened htop to look at what's going on and it's running gksu, but there was NO popup to ask for my password
[13:57] <nagchampa> it's getting root access without me having to even approve it
[13:57] <histo> nagchampa: you can build a packaage without root but not install it
[13:58] <Walex> nagchampa: you could be in grop 'wheel' or in one of the 'NOPASSWD' lines in 'sudo'
[13:59] <nagchampa> Walex: if i run gksu gedit i still get a popup for my password
[13:59] <Stava> histo, no that didnt work, and thats the same output I get when i do ifdown/ifup
[13:59] <Stava> And i'm on the same network with this computer, so the router/dhcp should work
[14:00] <hihihi100> Hi there: I have 2 500GB external hard drives, same vendor, same brand, same model, that have the exactly the same data in them, given that one is a copy of the other. Both have the same number of files. One external HD is in EXT3, the other is in EXT4. The first one shows 102 MB of free space, the other shows 3.9 GB of free space. I insist that the EXT4 HD is a copy of the data stored in the EXT3 external HD, and I dont und
[14:00] <hihihi100> erstand the grounds for that difference of free space. Im concerned, as I fear I may have lost some files, or that some files may be corrupted. Help please

[14:05] <CruelC> How do I run hardware detection before entering x11 in ubuntu 8.04? (I do not own liveCD's of any newer linuxes, my xubuntu 10.10 is an OEM one, not a live one)
[14:06] <CruelC> my xubuntu OEM ("alternate") CD would need a 4gb pendrive
[14:06] <nagchampa> anyone? this seems like a serious issue
[14:06] <cyberos> hi, now I have the blue light of my wiffi lit sign that is turned on but I can not use that can occur?
[14:06] <linxeh> cyberos: its not a CD then is it ?
[14:07] <CruelC> well, wifi is always a rot grub
[14:07] <CruelC> =-=
[14:07] <iijijij> actually i want to save those apt download
[14:07] <iijijij> but how
[14:07] <iijijij> i don't want to download again again
[14:07] <CruelC> If you are in a live mode, do not OPEN debs, SAVE THEM to sda1 or something
[14:08] <iijijij> well i always use apt get install but where it save
[14:08] <code_astronomer> iijijij: I'm sure ubuntu's package manager will cache them somewhere
[14:08] <histo> iijijij: /var/cache/apt/archives/
[14:08] <cyberos> lixeh, must be a problem of my network-software
[14:08] <iijijij> is it ok
[14:09] <CruelC> try downloading debs with ur browser
[14:09] <Dr_Willis> iijijij:  check /var/cache/apt/
[14:09] <CruelC> =_=
[14:09] <iijijij> ok
[14:09] <code_astronomer> aa, cheers histo :)
[14:09] <CruelC> Copy from var/cache/apt to SDA1/apt or something
[14:09] <vmware> hi is there a iscsi chanel?
[14:09] <cyberos> how can install the network-software  again?
[14:10] <iijijij> ok ok i will check later and how to disable root password
[14:10] <robowz> ciao
[14:10] <CruelC> you mean linux's UAC?
[14:10] <histo> iijijij: root should not be enabled
[14:10] <CruelC> Puppy Linux is an UACless Linux
[14:10] <CruelC> =_=
[14:10] <histo> !sudo > iijijij
[14:10] <tangent3> hmm.. whatever happened to xorg.conf, it's in my 10.10 desktop that was upgraded from 9.04, but there's no xorg.conf in a fresh 10.10 install
[14:10] <Dr_Willis> Puppy Linux is very weird in many ways...
[14:11] <histo> tangent3: it's been gone for a while
[14:11] <Dr_Willis> tangent3:  x auto configures for the most part these dasys
[14:11] <tangent3> oh cool
[14:11] <linxeh> iijijij: how come you have a root pasword ?
[14:11] <CruelC> should I boot into my Ubuntu 804 CD?
[14:12] <linxeh> CruelC: what are you trying to do ?
[14:12] <cyberos> my wiffi is blue but i cant run my wiffi
[14:12] <CruelC> I'm trying to detect my vcard before x11
[14:12] <robowz> !list
[14:12] <Dr_Willis> CruelC:  and your chipset is what?
[14:12] <CruelC> Radeon HD 4550
[14:12] <histo> CruelC: lspci lshw or lsusb  would be of assistance
[14:12] <linxeh> CruelC: boot your machine, and switch to a console, then redetect the graphics (or manually configure it)
[14:13] <histo> CruelC: they will just show your hardware.
[14:13] <CruelC> It just boots x11 into "zero mode" without finding palette drivers
[14:13] <CruelC> so when OTTD goes fullscreen, the palette is buggy
[14:14] <cyberos> my wiffi this on but I have no manager that detects
[14:14] <CruelC> OTTD linux-generic
[14:14] <CruelC> but I'll need my chatzilla xpl to chat without being CAPTCHA-d
[14:15] <CruelC> I'm on my machine now, but I'm under win7.
[14:15] <caz> Hi
[14:15] <nagchampa> haha, wtf, gksu -D "some text" gedit will launch gedit with root privaliges without askign for a password
[14:16] <CruelC> Not to snot up the mbr, I always keep my linuxes on external bootables.
[14:16] <dfcnvt> Does anyone experience a strange behavior from ubuntu when you click the media folder such as Documents, Pictures, Downloads, & Videos... They're opened in media player like VLC and not as a folder on the desktop.
[14:16] <cyberos> Hi I have recently installed ubuntu 4.10 and I have problems with wiffi rather think that with the net-work program for management of connections that seem not to have properly installed
[14:16] <cyberos> ubuntu 10.04
[14:17] <CruelC> u1004 is now a legacy OS, lol
[14:17] <histo> CruelC: no it's not
[14:18] <CruelC> Just a cruel joke
[14:19] <histo> cyberos: you mean 10.04
[14:19] <Gnea> !wifi | cyberos
[14:19] <Gnea> histo: he said that already
[14:19] <CruelC> so what to do make x11 boot with normal palette drivers? I need a short script
[14:20] <CruelC> =|=
[14:20] <Gnea> 'normal palette drivers'?
[14:20] <CruelC> well, boot into 804 livecd, dload OpenTTD linux-generic, launch it
[14:21] <CruelC> and switch to fullscreen mode
[14:21] <Gnea> so basically, you want to know how to run openttd in ubuntu?
[14:22] <CruelC> it runs normally until you fullscreen it
[14:22] <Gnea> and then?
[14:22] <CruelC> then it ruins the palette
[14:22] <Gnea> screenshot?
[14:22] <cyberos> ubottu my wireless  is detected by my system but I havent a manager that can detect and use my wiffi
[14:23] <Gnea> cyberos: you ought to have network manager installed already. if that doesn't do it, can you install wicd somehow?
[14:23] <CruelC> Gnea: it's painful to look at
[14:23] <Gnea> CruelC: good, then let me see a picture of it
[14:23] <cyberos> gnea yes i have a network installed but dont work
[14:23] <cyberos> with the wiffi
[14:24] <Gnea> cyberos: "don't work" doesn't tell me anything. please elaborate.
[14:24] <cyberos> gnea , my network isnt installed in my bar
[14:25] <Gnea> cyberos: now I'm even more confused. perhaps you would rather speak with someone in spanish?
[14:25] <cyberos> with eth0 work but with wiffi not work
[14:25] <iijijij> is firewall on by default
[14:25] <Shorty> hey hey hey
[14:26] <Shorty> FrozenFire
[14:26] <ciccio7702> ciao
[14:26] <Dr_Willis> iijijij:  theres no default rules.. so its basically running but 'off'
[14:27] <iijijij> what shall i turn off the ufw
[14:27] <Shorty> i need some help if anyone is feeling particularly savy today
[14:27] <Skapare> Shorty: should I cook your breakfast for you?
[14:28] <Shorty> depends
[14:28] <Shorty> are you a tall brunette with large breasts?
[14:28] <kehcho> cyberos, do you speak spanish?
[14:28] <Shorty> ;)
[14:28] <Shorty> i finally got ubuntu working on my Gateway NV79 laptop last nite
[14:29] <Shorty> after battling a backlight issue for 8 hours
[14:29] <Shorty> but now it wont let me turn my wirless adapter on
[14:29] <nijabo> Wireless adapter?
[14:30] <Shorty> the laptop doesnt have a hard wifi switch, just a capacitive touch key which is lit like its on but when i go to the wifi settings it is blacked out
[14:30] <anoe> hi there, i've got an usb external hd, it was hit and nautilus says there is some content unreadable, but checking the filesystem with the disk utility  says everything's ok
[14:30] <Skapare> Shorty: now that you have asked your question or stated your problem, we look to see if an expert in that area is present
[14:30] <Shorty> and if i do a rfkill list it says the soft key is off
[14:30] <cyberos> kehcho, What parameters need to console the network applet appears on the bar and detect my wiffi?
[14:30] <anoe> so, how could i perform a low level check, or st like that?
[14:30] <Shorty> any idea
[14:31] <nijabo> Hm
[14:31] <iijijij> any good anti virus for ubuntu
[14:31]  * Skapare has no idea about a wireless adapator of unknown brand
[14:31] <cyberos> kehcho, yes may language is spanish
[14:31] <nijabo> iijijij: why would you need one? :P

[14:32] <anoe> got it in the repositories, i think
[14:32] <Shorty> yep just as i though
[14:32] <Shorty> thought*
[14:32] <nijabo> Oh wait that thread isnt abvout that
[14:32] <jymere> how can I retrieve my former file : /etc/network/interfaces ?
[14:32] <st> lol clamav which quarantined hundreds of system files recently with no backup?
[14:32] <iijijij> don't want virtual machine slow
[14:33] <anoe> bye, i'll keep on searching
[14:33] <Skapare> jymere: does your editor leave a backup copy?
[14:33] <Shorty> ok guess i'll look elsewhere... thanks
[14:33] <martin____> xrandr does not list the DVI output of my docking station, I booted with the DVI cable connected to the monitor, and the laptop docked.
[14:34] <jymere> Skapare: no i don't think so ... it's gedit
[14:34] <Skapare> jymere: so you need to restore your /etc/network/interfaces file because you messed with it without making a backup copy
[14:35] <jymere> Skapare: yes
[14:36] <Skapare> jymere: and because you messed with it, you can't get network access to download a new copy
[14:37] <Skapare> jymere: I doubt mine would work on your network
[14:37] <jymere> in fact i can go on internet : when i said "at random" it's not totally true: the ip adress is 192.168.1.x, mask 255.255.255.0 et and the gateway like an other ip adress
[14:38] <nobuntu_> 0hai
[14:38] <CruelC> how to make a screenshot in ubuntu?
[14:38] <Skapare> jymere: can you pastebin your existing /etc/network/interfaces file?
[14:38] <CruelC> does PrtScr key work?
[14:39] <jymere> Skapare: I can put an ip adress without risk ?
[14:39] <xangua> CruelC: yes
[14:39] <CruelC> Where to paste the prtscr?
[14:39] <jymere> Skapare: I can show to the others my ip adress without risk ?
[14:39] <CruelC> I'm a winhead, so I just type "paint" in start menu if I need this
[14:40] <Skapare> jymere: you want to put a static 192.168.1.X address in manually ... one you will check to be sure is not in your router's DHCP pool?
[14:40] <Skapare> jymere: you can show a PRIVATE IP without risk ... such as one that begins witn 192.168 or 172.16 or 10.10
[14:41] <duffydack> CruelC, pressing prntScr should open gnome-screenshot tool
[14:41]  * Skapare is using 172.30.72.4
[14:41] <HowardTheDuck> hi
[14:41] <HowardTheDuck> whats' up all
[14:41] <jymere> Skapare: I go to the other computer I come back sooner in order to put my /etc/network/interfaces
[14:41] <JeffS> For a screenshot-try Applications/Accessories and look for a program simply called "Take Screenshot" in the list.
[14:42] <CruelC> *damn*
[14:42] <salil> Hmm?
[14:42] <CruelC> ubuntu being bottlenecked by cdrom
[14:43] <CruelC>  where are screenshots stored?
[14:43]  * Skapare is making 100 Ubuntu CDs today
[14:44] <CruelC> so?
[14:44] <CruelC> WHERE ARE THE SCREENS STORED?
[14:44] <Skapare> no shouting
[14:44] <CruelC> I need to know, gimp says no image to post
[14:44] <JeffS> When you use the Take Screenshot tool-after you click it will ask you where you want the image placed so you can select any folder of the desktop.
[14:45] <CruelC> but what if I did it with a key?
[14:45] <CruelC> daglo-zaglo on it all
[14:45] <CruelC> gimme dirs
[14:45] <CruelC> what dirs host keyboarded screens?
[14:46] <xangua> on you desktop CruelC
[14:46] <Skapare> CruelC: scan all your files into a list, do a screenshot, scan all your files into another list, compare lists
[14:47] <CruelC> restarting x11, it's painful
[14:48] <seme> hey guys.. I've just finished reading through the man pages and documentation and building from source... while I got it to build I'm not sure where I make my customizations (aka change the params for configure, add compile flags, etc)
[14:49] <iijijij> what is xcopy in linux
[14:50] <HowardTheDuck> i dunno
[14:50] <o0ze> jiffe: cp
[14:50] <iijijij> cp only copy file
[14:50] <seme> iijijij, you don't need it.. cp -r will recursively copy...
[14:50] <iijijij> oh i see
[14:50] <seme> iijijij, or you can use rsync if you want to be able to start/restart, etc
[14:50] <CruelC> 0_0
[14:50] <CruelC> it's not on my desktop
[14:50] <seme> or you could do something like tar cf - | (cd some/where/else; tar xf - )
[14:51] <CruelC> prtscr seems not to work in u804
[14:51] <seme> if you want to preserve things
[14:51] <seme> lots of ways :)
[14:51] <seme> oops I meant tar cf - something | (cd some/where/else; tar xf - )
[14:51] <CruelC> so what the jiboe does it all mean?
[14:52] <seme> anyone here ever build using apt-get source...
[14:52] <CruelC> gimme a deb that binds screenshot to prtscr key, it's not present in u804 outbox
[14:52] <studentz> help pam_unix(gdm:auth) : conversation failed
[14:52] <st> seme, sure
[14:52] <root> kvo stava

[14:52] <jymere> hi
[14:52] <Guest75086> hu
[14:52] <burningphantom1> Hi
[14:52] <Guest75086> hi
[14:52] <Guest75086> hy
[14:52] <Guest75086> jymere:
[14:52] <Guest75086> hi
[14:52] <FloodBot4> Guest75086: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
[14:52] <jaapvisser> I am going to order a Ubuntu Lucid VPS my providers offers the 32 and 64 bit option ... I am going to use this vps for apache and a postfix mailserver is 32 ok or are you guys advising me to go for the 64 bit version... What is best to choose?
[14:53] <seme> st, after you get the source package where do you change the configure parameters
[14:53] <st> seme, as arguments to ./configure
[14:53] <Guest75086> got 64 version
[14:53] <CruelC> Gimme a package that binds printscreen to screenshot function
[14:53] <burningphantom1> Im new to the Ubuntu Operating System and was wondering if I could ask for some help.
[14:53] <seme> st, can I just configure it like I normally would? how do I get it to produce a deb file then?
[14:53] <Guest75086> burningphantom1: ask
[14:53] <jymere> Skapare: in fact I succeed in retrieve my former file : /etc/network/interfaces
[14:54] <CruelC> burningphantom1: Linux does not use drive letters
[14:54] <jaapvisser> Guest75086 what makes you choose for the 64bit version ... I will become a server in my case.
[14:54] <st> seme, it's one of making targets, cannot say exactly which
[14:54] <burningphantom1> I installed it this morning after backing up/removing vista, and noticed that the audio doesn't work.
[14:54] <jymere> Skapare : and now I can connect with ssh to this computer put the ip adress is not fix
[14:54] <RenatoSilva> if I want to make some ~/file I consider useless a link to something in /tmp, is there any default directory inside /tmp I can use? /tmp/orbit-$user or /tmp/tracker-$user, maybe?
[14:54] <Guest75086> jaapvisser: my expirience with 64 bit version
[14:54] <CruelC> instead, it's hd/sd/cd bus a-z number 1-100
[14:54] <Guest75086> in server platform of course
[14:54] <jymere> How can I do that ?
[14:54] <burningphantom1> so I was wondering... how I could get the audio working again
[14:54] <seme> st, ok let me look at the man page again... it didn't look like you could do it that way
[14:55] <CruelC> burningphantom1: for example, sda1 or hda2
[14:55] <jaapvisser> ok .... tnx Guest76086
[14:55] <studentz> heelp me Stuck in login gdm error pam_unix(gdm:auth): conversation failed
[14:55] <CruelC> but this may be quite confusing for winheads
[14:55] <seme> ahh.. dpkg-buildpackage
[14:55] <burningphantom1> could you explain how to get to sda1 or hda2 please?
[14:56] <CruelC> Ubuntu has a Computer facility in Start2
[14:56] <seme> one last question can I specify a different location for all this to happen... for some reason it is all getting downloaded to my home directory
[14:56] <CruelC> at least in 8.04
[14:56] <seme> or at least it downloads it to the current directory
[14:56] <seme> but I'd like to force it to happen somewhere else
[14:57] <CruelC> in Computer facility, just double-click the normal "name" of the desired CD/partition
[14:57] <jymere> hi ! I created an ssh server on a machine which I called M1. I succeeded to connect with ssh to M1 from an other computer which I called M2. Now I want to fix the M2's IP adress ? How can I do that ?
[14:57] <jrib> seme: what is "all this"?
[14:57] <jrib> jymere: what do you mean by "fix"?
[14:57] <CruelC> on your keyboard, press alt+f1, then the right arrow
[14:58] <CruelC> burningphantom1: did you find the Computer facility?
[14:58] <jymere> jrib: I don't want that my M2's IP adress change each time I start M2
[14:58] <burningphantom1> is computer facility called disk utility?
[14:58] <CruelC> Computer
[14:58] <DEKiMA> Hell all.
[14:58] <CruelC> it's just named "computer
[14:58] <burningphantom1> yes. Im on computer
[14:59] <duffydack> jymere, either set it manually or use m2.local as the address
[14:59] <trojan_spike> hi,, lil info needed here.. terminal installing, multi-install,, is it i.e 'sudo apt-get install vlc && gimp && ark' etc ??
[14:59] <CruelC> Remember your needed tome's "name", letters are not used
[14:59] <DEKiMA> I was wondering if anyone knew the origin of the name apache and apache2 for httpd?
[14:59] <jrib> jymere: you'd have to speak with your isp about that.  Why don't you just use a dynamic dns service like dyndns.com?
[14:59] <M1> jymere: You named it after me? :D
[14:59] <burningphantom1> it says file system and cd/dvd drive
[14:59] <duffydack> jymere, is this a local pc or remote ?
[14:59] <seme> jrib: it is a poorly worded question ;)... I meant that I would like to pick a location, say $HOME/src/ubuntu, and when I execute apt-get -b source somepackage it puts all the artifacts there such as the downloaded source, resulting debs, etc
[14:59] <hugoshi> is there an email client in ubuntu that will both enable me to view multiple inboxes separately, as well as together in sort of a collated view?
[14:59] <DEKiMA> It came up and I realized that I didn't have any idea :)
[14:59] <jymere> duffydack: remote
[15:00] <jymere> M1: sorry :D
[15:00] <CruelC> on the left side are some disks
[15:00] <jrib> seme: just run the command from that directory (cd there first), it extracts things to the current working directory.
[15:00] <trojan_spike> hughhalf, i think thunderbird can do that
[15:00] <i_is_broke> trojan_spike, just leave a space between them nothing else it should work.
[15:00] <jymere> jrib: I see on the internet that it was possible
[15:00] <v3nd3tta``> DEKiMA: sudo apt-get install <program1> <program2> ... will do it
[15:00] <duffydack> jymere, then as jrib  suggested, get a dynamic dns service, like dyndns
[15:00] <trojan_spike> i_is_broke, give me an example plz
[15:00] <DEKiMA> That wasn't my question.
[15:01] <burningphantom1> what should I do with the disks?
[15:01] <DEKiMA> I was just curious why it's called apache instead of httpd.
[15:01] <DEKiMA> That's all.
[15:01] <albech> can i sync my evolution calendar with google calendar?
[15:01] <jrib> jymere: you can get a static ip, sure, through your isp.  But more likely you want to just use something like dyndns.com (there are plenty of clients for it in the repositories, like ddclient for example)
[15:01] <i_is_broke> trojan_spike, try like sudo apt-get install conky vlc compiz
[15:01] <jymere> duffydack: but how can I know the adress Ip of M2 ?
[15:02] <jymere> jrib: ok I am about to see it
[15:02] <jrib> jymere: essentially, you'll have something like jymere.dyndns.com that will correspond to M2 always regardless of ip
[15:03] <seme> jrib: thanks :)
[15:03] <trojan_spike> ty
[15:03] <mar3k> hello everyone
[15:03] <whynot> hi
[15:04] <jymere> jrib: I believe I understand. In fact, instead of type the Ip adress of M2, I'd have used the dns name ? is that correct ?
[15:04] <mar3k> is this ok to discuss issues in Doxygen
[15:04] <jrib> jymere: yes
[15:04] <jymere> jrib: is it reliable ?
[15:04] <duffydack> jymere, I use dyndns, I have a configuration page for it in my router settings..easy peasy
[15:04] <Who> guys i am installing Ubuntu using Wubi
[15:05] <Who> this is my first time
[15:05] <mar3k> or there is a special channel for doxygen
[15:05] <Who> is 12 GB enough ?
[15:05] <jymere> duffydack: ok i'll try. thanks a lot !
[15:05] <duffydack> Who, more than enough
[15:05] <jrib> jymere: sure works great
[15:05] <om26er> Who, its more than enough but the preferred method is to install by booting
[15:05] <Who> duffydack:  thanks alot
[15:06] <Tweaky> !ot
[15:06] <kane77> how do I rewrite boot sector on usb stick?
[15:07] <duffydack> kane77, grub?
[15:08] <kane77> duffydack, I need to remove grub from there
[15:08] <Mikolos> http://www.schulterglatze.de/spenden/2502677 thx :D
[15:09] <duffydack> kane77, just remove it, not replace with something else?
[15:10] <kane77> duffydack, yes, I tried deleting and recreating partition, but the grub is still there.. (maybe I did it wrong though)
[15:10] <dfcnvt> I have a problem with opening the folder... check the video of my desktop to see the problem.
[15:10] <dfcnvt> http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9eOZUoa0fSc
[15:10] <dfcnvt> and this one too, different media player... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H3mqT1uvN04
[15:10] <duffydack> kane77,  a few ways, could just use Disk Utility to format the drive.  it will write new mbr
[15:11] <HowardTheDuck> hey is it better to have an antivirus on my windows partition or just scan it w/ clamtk from ubuntu
[15:11] <bazhang> Mikolos, dont spam here
[15:11] <pragmaticenigma> Clam doesn't remove viruses, it will only tell you that you have a virus
[15:11] <bazhang> dfcnvt, more useful to pastebin the error messages with what you are trying to do
[15:11] <duffydack> kane77, or.. sudo dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/sdb bs=512 count=1   (replace sdb with your usb stick id)
[15:12] <HowardTheDuck> pragmaticenigma: ah ok.  thanks.  ill just use that panda cloud thing then
[15:12] <pragmaticenigma> HowardTheDuck: You can also use TrendMicro's House Call
[15:12] <HowardTheDuck> I really like the idea of cloud av...i wanna try that one out
[15:13] <HowardTheDuck> see just how light on resources it really is
[15:13] <dfcnvt> bazhang: There are no code to paste for the error. Therefore, I have no use of it. Please check the video to see the problem otherwise.
[15:13] <HowardTheDuck> pragmaticenigma: ill check it out thanks
[15:13] <bazhang> dfcnvt, describe what you are trying to do then, and what does not work
[15:14] <dfcnvt> you're afraid of watching the film?
[15:14] <dfcnvt> Alright, I'll explain.
[15:14] <ajay> hello
[15:14] <dfcnvt> I clicked the folder on the ubuntu's desktop and it opened as a media player but not as a folder. How do I prevent this?
[15:15] <xangua> dfcnvt: right clic in the folder> properties> open with> select nautilus
[15:16] <lugalgal> hello everybody i need some help with ubuntu 10.10 netbook version.i just left win 7 and very confused about this thing.
[15:17] <xangua> !manual | lugalgal
[15:17] <jrib> dfcnvt: go to nautilus, right click on a directory and change the program used to open directories back to the file browser (nautilus)
[15:18] <nothingspecial> dfcnvt: right click and choose to open with file browser then tick the always do this box
[15:18] <kane77> duffydack, also I have problem, I installed buntu on my work laptop and I wanted to install grub to usb stick (so that if I did not put stick in it would boot into windows normally) but for unknown reason if I boot off usb stick it only writes grub over the screen
[15:18] <dfcnvt> Okay, I'm working on it...
[15:19] <icetrain_> hi guys the way to /audanp german help channel
[15:19] <icetrain_> ?
[15:19] <dfcnvt> Problem solved.
[15:19] <dfcnvt> Thanks guys.
[15:20] <EpicFialGuy> ive a problem with gnome - i need to "--replace" compiz/metacity every time i boot and i can't see what windows are open in the bottom bar
[15:21] <EpicFialGuy> >ping on irc
[15:22] <EpicFialGuy> anyone of you opensourcerers would lend a hand?
[15:22] <studentz> help I'm stuck in the login screen. error pam_unix(gdm:auth): conversation failed
[15:22] <st> EpicFialGuy, your session settings are wrong
[15:23] <EpicFialGuy> how can i reverse my session settings to that of a livecd?
[15:23] <EpicFialGuy> or any defaults?
[15:24] <pragmaticenigma> EpicFialGuy: when you login, does gnome display the menus at all?  What was the last thing you did before experiencing this issue?
[15:24] <hceasy> 大家好
[15:25] <Braber01> um is there a way to play a sound with the command line in the backgorund? I like to play muds with my login shell but don't know how to play a sound with it?
[15:25] <lugalgal> ubuntu manual is for 10.04 but i need knowledge about Unity .this is totally different from gnome.
[15:25] <hceasy> 有人能看懂我说话吗?
[15:25] <EpicFialGuy> the last thing was playing wow and conversing on pidgin
[15:26] <hceasy> hi
[15:26] <erUSUL> !cn
[15:26] <Who> guys i am getting Try hd(0,0): NTFS5: No wubildr error
[15:26] <duffydack> kane77,  not 100% sure but you probably need to boot ubuntu, install grub to usb stick and copy /boot/grub/grub.cfg to your usb sticks boot/grub/ folder.
[15:26] <hceasy> 哈哈
[15:27] <Who> when trying to install ubuntu using Wubi
[15:27] <Braber01> !ch | hceasy
[15:27] <ashwin> how play video on bt4?
[15:27] <EpicFialGuy> hello?
[15:27] <Who> umm what could be the reason ?
[15:27] <pragmaticenigma> ashwin: !backtrack4
[15:27] <pragmaticenigma> !bt4
[15:28] <ashwin> yes
[15:28] <jrib> !backtrack | ashwin
[15:28] <duffydack> kane77, should have chosen your usb stick as the location to write boot loader during install ...
[15:28] <lugalgal> hello.doesn't anybody know about unity desktop?
[15:28] <Who> guys i am getting Try hd(0,0): NTFS5: No wubildr error
[15:28] <pragmaticenigma> thanks jrib
[15:28] <duffydack> there isnt a lot to learn about unity....
[15:29] <lugalgal> @duffydack if you answered me.pls tell me how to create shortcuts in unity.
[15:29] <pragmaticenigma> lugalgal: what do you want to know about Unity?
[15:30] <EpicFialGuy> how do i reverse session settings to default?
[15:30] <kane77> duffydack, yes, that's what I did, but I'm not sure if the numbers in grub config are correct, how does grub get hd numbers? during installation the usb would be hd1 0 is it possible that when booting it will be hd0 0?
[15:30] <lugalgal> i couldn't create shortcuts and couldn't add buttons to sidebar.i want to learn how to do.
[15:31] <duffydack> lugalgal, when you run your program you right click the icon for it on the left, and choose keep in launcher
[15:31] <steffen123_> weird problem here, my server's cert is rejected by ubuntu-firefox, but its accepted by gentoo-firefox, winXP-firefox and win7-IE
[15:32] <steffen123_> i checked by comparing the SHA print that ubuntu receives the same cert as the others
[15:32] <dfcnvt> All of the silly effort I made, thanks to you. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Zv8A4W4h9CQ
[15:32] <EpicFialGuy> somebody
[15:33] <steffen123_> can anyone point me to how to figure out why this cert is being rejected on ubuntu? the site is https://the-movement.info
[15:33] <lugalgal> sorry i didn't get it.when i run a program i will keep it on launcher by doing what?
[15:33] <Braber01> hey I'm trying to figure out how to use aplay to play music while I'm playing a mud any ideas?
[15:34]  * Skapare wonders why Firefox is taking 44 seconds from "click on the icon" to "window is open"
[15:34] <lugalgal> and what about programs i use in wine like winamp.how to create shorcuts
[15:34]  * Skapare wonders why Firefox is taking 44 seconds to start because his computer is only 1.6 GHz with only 4GB RAM
[15:34] <jrib> Braber01: command &
[15:34] <pragmaticenigma> Skapare: Do you have a lot of plugins installed?
[15:35] <Braber01> jrib Thanks I figured I forgot the &
[15:35] <Skapare> pragmaticenigma: not that I am aware of ... just freshly installed Ubuntu 10.10 amd64 from scratch
[15:35] <pragmaticenigma> Skapare: are you running Ubuntu for 64bit?
[15:35] <Skapare> yes, 64 bit
[15:36] <Skapare> maybe it put a 32 bit Firefox on?
[15:36] <pragmaticenigma> Skapare: there is only a 32 bit version of Firefox
[15:36] <deverne> #f-spot
[15:37] <mman> Skapare, It happend to me, not that long but it did. What I did was uninstall the visual effects (who is it called?)
[15:37] <wastrel> firefox takes a long time to load first time because of disk slow
[15:37] <ira> Firefox loads in just a few seconds, using 64bit
[15:37] <mman> Skapare, *how
[15:37] <pragmaticenigma> Skapare: Usually, I find slow downs are from having a lot of different plugins installed (such as flash, logmein, etc...) and firefox does a check once and awhile to make sure the most up to date versions are installed
[15:37] <wastrel> it reads a lot of crap from disk
[15:39] <mman> Skapare, the compiz! thats what i unistalled and then it worked
[15:39] <lugalgal>  @pragmaticenigma,can you tell me how to create shortcuts for programs like winamp(using with wine)...and please tell me how to add buttons of any programs in sidebar
[15:40] <pragmaticenigma> lugalgal: I'm not familiar with Unity... I recommend using a regular Ubuntu install for what your attempting to do
[15:40] <st> lugalgal, had you read help ?
[15:40] <chicao> a good phone and adress agenda to linux ?
[15:41] <lugalgal> @st if you mean manual it didn't work.
[15:41] <winxordie> anyone know where/how I'd get gconf.pc for pkg-config? I've got gconf2 installed but can't find gconf.pc anywhere.
[15:41] <EpicFialGuy> the game
[15:41] <pragmaticenigma> lugalgal: Unity is really intended to be a simple interface for people who aren't too familiar with computers and desire a simple approach to using thier computer.  Your looking to do more advanced items, therefore, I would recomend you use a full install of Ubuntu
[15:41] <st> pragmaticenigma, add a program icon isn't 'advanced' item
[15:42] <Skapare> pragmaticenigma: so the firefox people only know how to do 32 bit?
[15:42] <lmontrie> winxordie: sudo updatedb && locate gconf.pc
[15:42] <EpicFialGuy> yes
[15:42] <EpicFialGuy> because they're dumb
[15:42] <pragmaticenigma> Skapare: They aren't interested in making a 64bit application at this time
[15:42] <crimsun> winxordie: you probably want libgconf2-dev
[15:42] <lugalgal> pragmaticenigma, i use ubuntu 10.10 on netbook that's why i have unity.i can move to desktop but it will be harsh for intel atom.
[15:43] <burningphantom1> does anyone know why ubuntu isn't playing sound from my laptop speakers?
[15:43] <Skapare> pragmaticenigma: so maybe this is to leave them with a 4G process memory limit so they will get better at not being so bloated?
[15:43] <pragmaticenigma> lugalgal: There is no difference between running the netbook edition and the full edition... the biggest difference is the netbook edition keeps you from loading up too many apps at one time
[15:43] <crimsun> burningphantom1: could be a lot of reasons.  Have you tried filing a bug (`ubuntu-bug alsa-base`)?
[15:43] <EpicFialGuy> burningphantom1: your sound mixer is muted
[15:44] <pragmaticenigma> Skapare: the memory limit is the hardware addressing... 32bit address space only allows for about 4g of memory
[15:44] <pragmaticenigma> in a 32 bit OS
[15:44] <burningphantom1> wait. where is sound mixer on ubuntu?
[15:44] <burningphantom1> its my first day of using this OS
[15:44] <crimsun> burningphantom1: try Applications > Accessories > Terminal, and in it type: alsamixer
[15:46] <Skapare> pragmaticenigma: if firefox is 32 bit mode, then it can't get larger than 4G ... maybe that's a good thing to teach their programmers to not make code that bloats so easily
[15:46] <winxordie> lmontrie, crimsun: thanks!
[15:46] <burningphantom1> then what? all I see are different bars... master is at 100, headphones at 0, pcm and front are 99, line is at 0, cd is 81, mic is 0 and s/pdif is... 0?
[15:46] <hihihi100> ext4 reserver 5% of any hard disk as lost and found space, is any way I can reduce it?
[15:46] <hihihi100> reserves*
[15:47] <burningphantom1> which do I alter?
[15:47] <EpicFialGuy> my gnome is fugded up and im left waiting with nothign to do! my bottom bar is not displaying active windows. what do?
[15:47] <nadav> how do I open a .run file?
[15:47] <pragmaticenigma> Skapare: No one should write a program that requires that much RAM, the system would likely crash... Firefox is what it is... You could try Google Chrome, Chromium or Opera too...
[15:47] <EpicFialGuy> nadav: sh
[15:47] <EpicFialGuy> somebody!
[15:48] <JeffS> is the bottom bar displaying at all?
[15:48] <velko> hihihi100, yes. tune2fs -m
[15:48] <EpicFialGuy> JeffS: yes, it displays a few buttons
[15:48] <EpicFialGuy> JeffS: like "hide all windows on desktop", trash bin and 4 monitors, but that's it
[15:48] <Skapare> pragmaticenigma: I wrote a program a few months ago that uses about 48G of RAM .... but it's a maths program doing extremely high precision calculations
[15:49] <hihihi100> velko, will there be any problem if I do it with storaged data already present in the disk? do I have to do it RIGHT AFTER formatting?
[15:49] <Skapare> pragmaticenigma: it runs on about 40 machines that have 64G
[15:49] <JeffS> Do you have several desktops? I can toggle between 4. If I accidentally switch to another desktop that has no apps running my bottom bar shows nothing
[15:49] <burningphantom1> orry but is hasnt done anything
[15:50] <velko> hihihi100, i don't this that there will be any problems. but a backup is always a good idea
[15:50] <EpicFialGuy> JeffS: that didn't work
[15:50] <mrk_> hi, what is the best image burner for .iso files on  ubuntu 10.4?
[15:50] <metalfan_> hi
[15:50] <pragmaticenigma> Skapare: Apples to Oranges there... Your talking a program that requires a much more heavy duty machine to begin with
[15:50] <virusuy> morning all 0/
[15:50] <pragmaticenigma> gotta go here everyone, time to watch Hak5
[15:50] <metalfan_> is there no 10.10 ubuntu server version? my 10.04 system says that it cant be upgraded via "sudo do-release-upgrade"  already the newest version?
[15:50] <JeffS> is the bar expanded across the full width of the screen?
[15:51] <Skapare> pragmaticenigma: true
[15:51] <hihihi100> velko, do u see my name with yellow letters when I write your nick?
[15:51] <metalfan_> mrk_, i believe nautilus can do it without external tools
[15:51] <EpicFialGuy> JeffS: yes
[15:51] <burningphantom1> anything else I can try to allow sound?
[15:51] <velko> hihihi100, with red ;)
[15:51] <metalfan_> writing with colors in irc is epic fail
[15:51] <wowaname_> Hello... right now I'm in irssi and trying to open X window system, but I can't because my home folder is encrypted
[15:51] <hihihi100> a, ok , so i dont need to do anything special, just type a nick so it highlights...
[15:51] <metalfan_> hihihi100, yes
[15:51] <velko> hihihi100, yes
[15:51] <Skapare> pragmaticenigma: /usr/lib/firefox-3.6.12/firefox-bin: ELF 64-bit LSB shared object, x86-64, version 1 (SYSV), dynamically linked (uses shared libs), for GNU/Linux 2.6.15, stripped
[15:52] <pragmaticenigma> metalfan_: You need to add the option "-d" to do the upgrade
[15:52] <metalfan_> hihihi100, the other client will do it for you
[15:52] <hihihi100> metalfan, ok
[15:52] <hihihi100> velko, ok
[15:52] <mrk_> metalfan_, i'm not sure how, i have brasero installed but its not functioning properly
[15:52] <velko> hihihi100, and you can tab-complete names. it's very convenient
[15:52] <JeffS> hmm so you have this window up on the screen, but no corresponding app displaying in the bar below. I'm thinking...
[15:52] <metalfan_> pragmaticenigma, thx
[15:52] <hihihi100> how do i do that?
[15:52] <wowaname_> Anyone?
[15:52] <burningphantom1> how do you join different servers?
[15:52] <pragmaticenigma> Skapare: Chances are that's a ported version that someone or the package maintainers did... all it was is compiled using the 64 bit compiler
[15:52] <metalfan_> pragmaticenigma, i dont remember using -d on my desktop...there the upgrade went fine
[15:53] <wowaname_> I set it to login automatically, so I'm pretty sure that's the problem
[15:53] <velko> hihihi100, type "vel" and press the tab key on your keyboard in order to complete my nick to "velko"
[15:53] <wowaname_> But how can I change that back via bash or something
[15:53] <pragmaticenigma> metalfan_: When using the LTS editions of Ubuntu, you have to add the -d to force it to do the upgrade
[15:53] <Skapare> pragmaticenigma: that would mean it will have 64 bit pointers, and a few other 64-bit things, and can access more than 4G
[15:54] <mastrociliegia> !list
[15:54] <burningphantom1> Please! does no-one know?
[15:54] <Skapare> pragmaticenigma: still doesn't explain why 44 seconds just to get first window open
[15:54] <mastrociliegia> ciao a tutti...
[15:54] <hihihi100> velko, cool
[15:54] <EpicFialGuy> JeffS: people in #ubuntu-pl told me to install fusion-icon, but it doesn't solve anything
[15:54] <wowaname_> Nobody? I have to go somewhere in a bit and this is the only place i get internet right now
[15:54] <Tweaky> hi. im trying to get my audio inuput to work. in the volume control it shows that there is input and the volume is up but i cant hear the input. any advice?
[15:54] <pragmaticenigma> Skapare: Not necassarily... the compiler could just simply make it so the libraries can reference each other.. the code inside the program has to be able to do the advanced memory addressing
[15:54] <piglit> how did i add a file to a NFS share ?
[15:54] <burningphantom1> Tweaky, I have the same problem
[15:55] <burningphantom1> cant hear a thing
[15:55] <JeffS> doesn't feel like an icon thing. still thinking...
[15:55] <piglit> like this file needs to be shared with nfs /home/user/this_file
[15:55] <wowaname_> ...Is there anyone here who can help me
[15:55] <pragmaticenigma> Skapare: Programs written in C and C++ (like Firefox) require some memory management to be coded, if it was written for 32bit proecssors, it will only attempt to address up to the 4G memory cap
[15:56] <Skapare> pragmaticenigma: it is possible to make code than can't do more than a 32-bit program would, even when compiled as 64-bit, but that would be some really gawdawful coding (if done in C/C++)
[15:56] <C-Peemp> I'm using 10.04. When I try to run "Touchpad" (under System->Preferences), I get this error: "GSynaptics couldn't initialize.
[15:56] <C-Peemp> You have to set 'SHMConfig' 'true' in xorg.conf or XF86Config to use GSynaptics". The problem is, I don't see an xorg.conf file in /etc/X11 !
[15:56] <Bruce_Wayne> My usb is messed up.. It's not able to mount in the system, or neither format through disk utility... any suggestions?
[15:56] <pragmaticenigma> Skapare: The compilers (like GCC) can make the code compatible for 64bit
[15:56] <Skapare> pragmaticenigma: so I take it Firefox has some gawdawful code inside?
[15:56] <thevishy> !enlightenment
[15:56] <mrk_> i tried to use terminal to burn the image, and it went through he motions, but ended up with a defective disc, is there any alternative?
[15:56] <vic20gmr> ive been using iwconfig to try to improve my wifi performance [its my only way of connecting to the internet right now] i would like suggeestions for what i might try setting rts, frag, and any other paramaters to in order to improve this
[15:56] <steffen123_> pragmaticenigma just for the record FF works perfectly fine as 64bit
[15:56] <Tweaky> burningphantom1: i just figured it out
[15:56] <pragmaticenigma> Skapare: Your making a lot of assumptions (I wasn't able to read your last comment fully)
[15:56] <velko> burningphantom1, make sure there are no "MM" (muted) signs under any of the bars in alsamixer. press "m" to toggle mute
[15:57] <steffen123_> i've been using 64bit firefox for at least a couple of years, and except for flash there's no problems
[15:57] <crimsun> burningphantom1: have you tried raising Headphones?
[15:57] <derek> How can I change my spellcheck to American English insteade of British English? It keeps confusing me as to whether I should be using Zs or Ss >_>
[15:57] <pragmaticenigma> steffen123_: I'm not arguing whether or not it works, I know it works, I use Centos5.5 for 64bit with Firefox and runs just fine
[15:57] <steffen123_> not on ubuntu tho
[15:57] <EpicFialGuy> goddamit there are 1500 users here and most of them are sitting with their thumb up their rear end - i think i should call canonical to get help
[15:57] <steffen123_> sorry i misunderstodo :)
[15:57] <EpicFialGuy> approx 10 users active ;_;
[15:57] <wastrel> hi
[15:57] <Bruce_Wayne> EpicFialGuy: YOu're righ
[15:57] <pragmaticenigma> EpicFialGuy: Welcome to IRC... this is normal
[15:58] <steffen123_> EpicFialGuy: if you're unhappy with the free support provided by people in their spare time, then yes, call canonical for paid support
[15:58] <steffen123_> that's how it works
[15:58] <bliss> hey
[15:58] <Bruce_Wayne> My usb is messed up.. It's not able to mount in the system, or neither format through disk utility... any suggestions?
[15:58] <Skapare> pragmaticenigma: well written code, even though originally tested on 32-bit, once compiled on 64-bit will be able to use more than 4G by virtue of simply using malloc() and friends correctly, and not doing bit-picking on pointers and such
[15:58] <mrk_> metalfan_, , nautilus for image burning, what did you mean?
[15:58] <thevishy> This is voluntary service! People need not help you at all
[15:59] <bliss> i am using ubuntu ultimate 2.8 and my firefox doesnt works
[15:59] <burningphantom1> how do you run ubotto
[15:59] <ira> firefox is opensource and is available if anyone wants to inspect the code
[15:59] <Skapare> pragmaticenigma: as a programmer (being doing C since 1982) I know that compiling into a 64-bit environment makes things such that a programmer has to go out of his/her way to be limited to 4G
[15:59] <EpicFialGuy> bliss: any error msgs?
[15:59] <sapiens__> hi
[15:59] <pragmaticenigma> Skapare: That's up to the programmer if they include that... Mozilla has it stated on their own website that they are not currently interested in making a 64bit version.  Any 64bit versions you see are from other people creating their own and sharing it
[15:59] <thevishy> !ubottu
[15:59] <sapiens__> Any program to sniff URLS?
[15:59] <sapiens__> like wincap
[15:59] <burningphantom1> run /ubottu
[16:00] <burningphantom1> err...
[16:00] <EpicFialGuy> bliss: any error msgs?
[16:00] <sapiens__> i need to ger rtmp urls from a website
[16:00] <Skapare> pragmaticenigma: and they also do not like it when compiled elsewhere it has the Firefox branding, too
[16:00] <burningphantom1> help /ubottu
[16:00] <thevishy> sapiens__, for what ? Firebug is a good tool to do anything related to browsers
[16:00] <C-Peemp> You have to set 'SHMConfig' 'true' in xorg.conf or XF86Config to use GSynaptics". The problem is, I don't see an xorg.conf file in /etc/X11 !
[16:00] <pragmaticenigma> Skapare: Not much anyone can do when you release your code as opensource
[16:00] <sapiens__> for extratc rtmp url from a web
[16:00] <C-Peemp> I'm using 10.04. When I try to run "Touchpad" (under System->Preferences), I get this error: "GSynaptics couldn't initialize. You have to set 'SHMConfig' 'true' in xorg.conf or XF86Config to use GSynaptics". The problem is, I don't see an xorg.conf file in /etc/X11 !
[16:00] <sapiens__> or a swf file
[16:00] <thevishy> sapiens then you might need parsers
[16:01] <velko> burningphantom1, no. start the line with ! and continue with the word you search for. like "!wine"
[16:01] <pragmaticenigma> sapiens__: This is not the correct chat room for that topic
[16:01] <vic20gmr> Bruce_Wayne, when your attention is needed by someone, do they turn on a big spotlight with a penguin silohette?
[16:01] <sapiens__> Flash decompiler doesn't work with wine xd
[16:01] <ira> !touchpad
[16:01] <burningphantom1> so... !ubottu?
[16:01] <burningphantom1> !ubottu
[16:02] <sgo11> hi, I created 50x50mm pictures with 120 resolution. I created another A4 size xcf file with 120 resolution. then copy and paste those pictures into that A4 xcf file and then save the A4 xcf file as jpg file. In the end, I print the jpg file with eog. but the pictures in the print is not 50x50mm. instead, it's 47x47mm. Can anyone tell me how can I get exact 50x50mm pictures printout? thansk.
[16:02] <vic20gmr> ive been using iwconfig to try to improve my wifi performance [its my only way of connecting to the internet right now] i would like suggeestions for what i might try setting rts, frag, and any other paramaters to in order to improve this
[16:02] <Skapare> pragmaticenigma: open source does not cover trademark branding ... open source is a copyright issue
[16:02] <Bruce_Wayne> vic20mgr: I just asked for help.. If you don't want to help... That's fine.. but no need to be over smart either
[16:02] <sapiens__> wirechark?
[16:02] <sapiens__> *wireshark?
[16:02] <burningphantom1> I just want to know how to get sound working with ubuntu.
[16:02] <velko> sgo11, this is not a problem related to ubuntu
[16:03] <pragmaticenigma> Skapare: It's up to the developer to remove their trademarks before releasing the source
[16:03]  * nijabo is away: /away
[16:03] <crimsun> burningphantom1: Please raise the Headphones level
[16:03] <sgo11> velko, sorry. I thought I joined gimp.
[16:03] <vic20gmr> Bruce_Wayne, i wasnt making any connection to anything youve said here, ive add, and a cheeky sense of humor, so sorry if i peeved you
[16:03] <burningphantom1> its on 80%
[16:03] <mrk_> any decent alternative to brasero?
[16:03] <vic20gmr> i have a.d.d.
[16:03] <pragmaticenigma> mrk_: k3b
[16:04] <mrk_> pragmaticenigma, thanks, where can i find it?
[16:04] <mrk_> please
[16:04] <pragmaticenigma> sudo apt-get install k3b
[16:04] <burningphantom1> it worked fine this morning... then again it was vista this morning.
[16:04] <crimsun> burningphantom1: can you join me in #ubuntu-audio-help, please?
[16:04] <mrk_> pragmaticenigma, , thanks again, i'll check it out
[16:04] <sapiens__> pragmaticenigma:  and where can i found a method to catch rtmp? rtmpdump only download video fron rtmp urls
[16:04] <Csmgiw> Hey can anybody lend me a hand real quick?
[16:04] <pragmaticenigma> mrk_: It's similar in layout to CDBurnerXP if your familair with that
[16:04] <Skapare> pragmaticenigma: so basically, it is slow for which reason?  because it was compiled with 64-bit toolchain?
[16:05] <Csmgiw> I Gota grub rescue screen
[16:05] <Csmgiw> And no commands work for it
[16:05] <Skapare> pragmaticenigma: can you suggest another fully open source browser?
[16:05] <pragmaticenigma> Skapare: It's slow because of a configuration issue
[16:05] <pragmaticenigma> Skapare: Chromium is fully open source
[16:05] <nsd_> I have a machine with an Ubuntu server install that I can't make connect to the network. I've tried both dhcp and static configurations with /etc/network/interfaces but neither work. I have another machine that I use a dhcp configuration set with the same file that works fine. Both machines are connected with patch cables to a switch that is then connected to a router via a wireless bridge. I've tried everything I can think of, but every time pinging either outsi
[16:05] <nsd_> de pages (e.g., google) or the router has no result. Perhaps it is possible that the card is bad?
[16:05] <Csmgiw> I have a machine tht I hard shut down because it froze
[16:06] <Skapare> pragmaticenigma: and is there a fix for this configuration issue?
[16:06] <Csmgiw> And now im at a grub recovery screen
[16:06] <pragmaticenigma> I have no idea... My version of Firefox on CentOS 5.5 loads up in 5 seconds
[16:06] <mrk_> pragmaticenigma, , i'm a total newbie to linux and ubuntu, and trying to work things out at present...for some reason, the software doesn't read my cd drive correctly, and says there is no adequate cd, when there is a perfectly good, blank cd with enough space in the drive
[16:06] <pragmaticenigma> nsd_: Have you tried swapping the network cards between the two machines?
[16:07] <Skapare> nsd_: can these two machines ping each other via their auto-configured link-local IPv6 address?
[16:07] <Csmgiw> Grub rescue has no valid commands .-.
[16:07] <nsd_> Skapare: Both machines are using IPv4; I don't even know the first thing about IPv6
[16:07] <Skapare> pragmaticenigma: a 32-bit CentOS?
[16:07] <pragmaticenigma> mrk_: Have you tried a different disk?
[16:07] <pragmaticenigma> Skapare: CentOS 64 bit
[16:07] <mrk_> pragmaticenigma,  i've tried four new ones, the same thing occurs with brasero
[16:08] <nsd_> pragmaticenigma: I have not yet tried swapping cards. Would there perhaps be some way of knowing if a card is bad from software? E.g., would the kernel start spitting out messages? I will try swapping cards eventually, though.
[16:08] <Skapare> nsd_: this command can show you your IPv6 address, if it is doable:   ifconfig eth0 | grep fe80:
[16:08] <pragmaticenigma> mrk_: Do you have another brand of disk to try?
[16:08] <C-Peemp> ubottu, well, it refers to the xorg.conf file, which I don't have. So?
[16:08] <Csmgiw> So nobody even wants to help...
[16:08] <mrk_> pragmaticenigma, , i know the discs are sound because i've recorded on them using windows
[16:08] <pragmaticenigma> nsd_: You could try something like lspci | grep -i "network|ethernet"
[16:09] <jimishol> trying to make vitualGL running even if server is at gdm logging in i managed to brake desktop effects for my account and lose some privileges as admin. other users had no effect. i created another admin user and his only problem is that gnome-terminal closes imediately after start. i removed my account , erased my files and recreated my account but problem persists. Just before make a format, have anyone any idea for easy fix? txs
[16:09] <Skapare> nsd_: if you get such an address on each machine, then use the "ping6" command, type in the address of the other machine ... and append the string "%eth0" to the IPv6 address when doing that
[16:09] <C-Peemp> I'm trying to fix a problem and I'm being told to edit the xorg.conf file, but I don't have one!
[16:09] <vic20gmr> how do i at least make the settings i make in iwconfig stick, so i dont have to reenter them every time i reboot?
[16:09] <nsd_> Skapare: will try
[16:09] <pragmaticenigma> mrk_: I would try k3b first, if the same issue arises then it's likely a driver issue with Ubuntu and your drive may not be fully supported yet
[16:09] <bluefrog> C-Peemp, create the xorg.conf gile
[16:09] <Skapare> nsd_: if the bad machine shows no interface at all, then yeah, there is a lower level issue
[16:09] <C-Peemp> bluefrog, how?
[16:10] <nsd_> pragmaticenigma, skapare: brb
[16:10] <bluefrog> C-Peemp, sudo gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[16:10] <C-Peemp> yeah bluefrog I get that, but what do I put in it without screwing up the whole X?
[16:10] <pragmaticenigma> C-Peemp: the command is: Xorg -configure
[16:10] <jimishol> trying to make vitualGL running even if server is at gdm logging in i managed to brake desktop effects for my account and lose some privileges as admin. other users had no effect. i created another admin user and his only problem is that gnome-terminal closes imediately after start. i removed my account , erased my files and recreated my account but problem persists. Just before make a format, have anyone any idea for easy fix? txs
[16:10]  * Skapare has found every Ubuntu system he has installed since 9.04 has IPv6 ready to go, and has IPv6 link-local addresses auto-configured on all interfaces that come up
[16:11] <EpicFialGuy> the game
[16:11] <pragmaticenigma> that will create an xorg.conf file in your home directory, you can then copy it to your /etc/X11 folder
[16:11] <mrk_> pragmaticenigma, , that's the conclusion i've come to, which is why i think i'll try the k3b. I did try to write using womid, but the software doesn't replay the burned disc which i 'cdwrote' with womid
[16:11]  * Skapare has also found IPv6 to be more reliable ... within the LAN ... than IPv4
[16:12] <BluesKaj> howdy
[16:12] <bluefrog> C-Peemp, what you have been told to write in it
[16:12] <pragmaticenigma> Skapare: I don't think his issue is with IPv6 or IPv4, I think there might be a hardware issue
[16:12] <C-Peemp> a few lines concerning SHMConfig, bluefrog.
[16:12] <mrk_> pragmaticenigma, , thanks for your help
[16:13] <Skapare> pragmaticenigma: if ifconfig doesn't even show his interface, that's almost certainly true ... but if it does, then certain tests can help determine that, and in my experience, the IPv6 tests are more reliable at that
[16:13] <pragmaticenigma> Skapare: he also mentioned using the same configuration file on both machines... possible that he's trying to use the same static IP address on both machines
[16:13] <schweegi> how can i change the default keyring password?
[16:13] <bluefrog> C-Peemp, http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=492984
[16:13] <Skapare> pragmaticenigma: and that is one good reason for doing the IPv6 link-local test
[16:13] <Who1> hello guys i want to help your documentation team a bit regarding Try hd(0,0): NTFS5: No wubildr on windows 7
[16:13] <cheater00> hi guys
[16:13] <pragmaticenigma> Skapare: doesn't his router have to support ipv6?
[16:14] <Who1> i believe i found a easier solution to that problem
[16:14] <cheater00> do i need to do anything special to upgrade from grub 1 to grub 2?
[16:14] <cheater00> or can i just select the grub-pc package in synaptic?
[16:14] <Who1> so where can  i address it so all the people can benefit from it
[16:14] <Skapare> pragmaticenigma: only if he wants to reach the internet via IPv6 ... or if he is doing this between separate LAN segments separated by the router
[16:14] <pragmaticenigma> cheater00: You really shouldn't attempt to upgrade GRUB manually, that should be something that is taken care of during install
[16:15] <Skapare> pragmaticenigma: within the same switched LAN segment, he's good to go with either statically configured IPv6, or the auto-configured link-local addresses
[16:15] <cheater00> pragmaticenigma: i want to upgrade grub.
[16:15] <sinibaldo> hiiiiiiiiiiii
[16:15] <sinibaldo> how can i find help from ankara
[16:15] <pragmaticenigma> Skapare: I have a router that only supports ipv4, I cannot link between my two ipv6 enabled machines using ipv6 addresses, I have to use ipv4
[16:15] <C-Peemp> I just added those lines to the newly created file. If my X stops working I'm gonna come back and kill you all ;)
[16:15] <sapiens__> any idea?
[16:15] <pragmaticenigma> cheater00: Why?
[16:15] <Skapare> pragmaticenigma: for static IPv6, he'd have to add that in his interfaces file ... for link-local, if the interface is up, it's ready to use
[16:16] <sinibaldo> or help from turkey
[16:16] <cheater00> pragmaticenigma: because.
[16:16] <Skapare> pragmaticenigma: do you get any output from this:   ifconfig eth0 | grep fe80:
[16:16] <pragmaticenigma> cheater00: In my experience trying to upgrade GRUB usually ends up with me losing my system... If you really want to upgrade it, reinstall the OS
[16:16] <tesh> hi, i want to run a ubuntu box on the network, without keyboard, montior or mouse.  this works fine until if for some reason ubuntu is not shutdown properly in which case on the next boot it hangs on the grub menu.  can i make it just boot into ubuntu automatically everytime the machine is switched on?
[16:17] <cheater00> no
[16:17] <xrdodrx> !tr | sinibaldo
[16:17] <pragmaticenigma> cheater00: sounds like your an 8year old kid... grow up
[16:18] <cheater00> sounds like you don't know what you're talking about, have managed to break your OS a few times, and think everyone's as much of a mishap as you
[16:18] <nsd_> Skapare, pragmaticenigma: I could not ping either machine with IPv6, but the card is detected by the kernel so the next thing I'm trying is swapping cards. Thanks for the help thus far
[16:18] <cheater00> and are fear-mongering since
[16:18] <Skapare> I guess his card swap will be telling ... if the problem moves to the other machine, it was the card
[16:19] <KwikkSilva> HI Guys
[16:19] <Skapare> or the driver for that card
[16:19] <xrdodrx> cheater00: Please stop the flamewar. :)

[16:22] <C-Peemp> I'm using 10.04. When I try to run "Touchpad" (under System->Preferences), I get this error: "GSynaptics couldn't initialize. You have to set 'SHMConfig' 'true' in xorg.conf or XF86Config to use GSynaptics". I added a few lines to that (previously empty) file. Didn't work.
[16:22] <crimsun> Guest58245: do you prefer a gui or a command line (Terminal)?
[16:22] <C-Peemp> yes, Skapare.
[16:23] <C-Peemp> (Here I am)
[16:23] <Guest58245> crimsun, either one long as it works lol
[16:23] <crimsun> Guest58245: then you probably want to install the `pavucontrol` package
[16:24] <Skapare> pragmaticenigma: if two machines on the same LAN have IPv6 addresses auto-configured (the ones beginning with "fe80:" and ending with "/64") ... then they should be able to ping each other ... but be sure to use "ping6" AND be sure to append % plus the interface name onto the address
[16:24] <Guest58245> crimsun, okay the other question is when I set pulse audio to my first sound card, get skype to use my second one...skype only shows the pulse audio local server
[16:25] <Skapare> pragmaticenigma: for example this works for me:  ping6 fe80::224:e8ff:fee7:1ecc%eth0
[16:25] <R101011> hi
[16:26] <krunal> what do i do if my batttery indicator is showing wrong
[16:26] <pragmaticenigma> Skapare: do you have a link to a good resource on the topic... I've only gotten a small bit of information about IPV6
[16:26] <Greyed> hello, i just do stupid thing - install ubuntu 10.10 near WinXP, and do not set Grub  for WinXP...  and now can`t find how repair it XD
[16:26] <Skapare> pragmaticenigma: unfortunately, no one single resource ... I've had to learn it in bits and pieces ... maybe I should write it up
[16:26] <crimsun> Guest58245: I don't understand; can you take screenshots and explain?
[16:27] <pragmaticenigma> Skapare: That would be very helpful
[16:27] <Skapare> pragmaticenigma: most resources describe networks that do have IPv6 routers and/or IPv6 internet or some tunnel broker ... and they focus on that
[16:27] <Guest58245> crimsun, when I use skype and go to the audio tab the only cards listed in there says Pulse Audio Local Server, it doesnt give me the option of picking a sound card. I want to setup so like all my sounds, music, youtube videos, etc come through my first sound card, but skype goes through my second
[16:27] <Skapare> pragmaticenigma: merely getting IPv6 to work within a LAN took some aggregation of info
[16:28] <pragmaticenigma> Skapare: yeah... the only exposure I've had on the topic is through a web cast from hak5.org
[16:28] <Medievalchips> Hey guys I have a problem with conky on ubuntu 10.10 when I make it start on startup it appears on top of all programs do you know what i can do to put it on the bottom
[16:28] <pragmaticenigma> Skapare: I use a Buffalo router with the stock firmware, I'm sure if I installed DDWRT on it I would have an IPv6 enabled router
[16:28] <crimsun> Guest58245: which version of Skype are you using?
[16:28] <Skapare> pragmaticenigma: but IPv6 done manually can be simpler than IPv4 ... except in cases of LONG addresses
[16:29] <Guest58245> crimsun, the latest from skype.com so skype something beta 2
[16:29] <crimsun> Guest58245: E.g., I'm using 2.1.0.81-1ubuntu5 from the partner repository.
[16:29] <Skapare> pragmaticenigma: but I use short IPv6 addresses on my LANs ... like fc01::4
[16:29] <pragmaticenigma> Skapare: The shortening is just because everyting between the fc01 and 4 was all zeroed out
[16:29] <Guest58245> crimsun, it says ubuntu-intrepid_2.1.0.81-1
[16:30]  * sedulous agrees that IPv6 is actually simpler than IPv4 (if you count in NAT)
[16:30] <crimsun> Guest58245: are you still on Intrepid?
[16:30] <YiMing> Please help me! I was trying install a nautilus extension called tracker-tag-tab.py,I put it to ~/.nautilus/python-extensions/ ,and modify it's permission to execute, and restart nautilus,But it's doesnt work
[16:30] <Guest58245> crimsun, no it was the only one I could find on Skypes website I am on maverick running kde 3.5
[16:31] <crimsun> Guest58245: ah, well, for reference, it's also in the Canonical partner repository.
[16:31] <Skapare> pragmaticenigma: on one machine do:   ifconfig add fc01::4/16   .... on another machine in the same LAN do:   ifconfig add fc01::5/16   ... that should get those machines going temporarily on IPv6 with not too long of addresses to try with
[16:31] <Guest58245> crimsun, oh okay i didnt know that lol
[16:32] <Skapare> pragmaticenigma: correction "ifconfig eth0 add fc01::4/16" etc
[16:32] <nitze> ntu.gr
[16:32] <pragmaticenigma> Skapare: I'd prefer not too... my MythTV box and main desktop have a link between them for files... don't wanna monkey with addressing right now
[16:32] <Guest58245> crimsun, nvm I got it working using that pavucontrol ty now I just have to fix my firefox problem lol
[16:32] <crimsun> Guest58245: anyhow, the fact that you only see PulseAudio server (local) is expected.
[16:32] <Skapare> pragmaticenigma: addresses in the range fc00 ... fdff  are the IPv6 equivalent of private IPs
[16:33] <Guest58245> crimsun, can i ask you the firefox question?
[16:33] <crimsun> Guest58245: I'm not really good at troubleshooting FF issues.
[16:33] <pragmaticenigma> Guest58245: what is your firefox question
[16:34] <pragmaticenigma> Guest58245: No one will be able to provide you an answer until you ask
[16:34]  * Skapare is not good at debugging any GUI app ... being a systems/networking guy
[16:34] <Guest58245> pragmaticenigma, when I download something via firefox it downloads fine, but if I right click show in folder or try to open all I get is CHOOSE application to run it, is there a way to get it to detect all of it so I dont have to keep choosing applications to even show in folder
[16:34] <groundnuty> hey, is there a way to install a deb package locally in my account? I have no root access + there is no gcc, so no way to compiel it from source
[16:34] <krunal> hwo do i check my connection speed on my wireless? weither it is on a or g
[16:34] <pragmaticenigma> Skapare: good way to debug is to launch from a terminal window... lots of garbage is written out
[16:35] <velko> groundnuty, no
[16:35] <Skapare> pragmaticenigma: good idea
[16:35] <pragmaticenigma> Guest58245: What is the file and program you want associated?
[16:35] <Dr_Willis> groundnuty:  if you could compule the stuff elsewhere. you could copy it over.
[16:36] <Guest58245> pragmaticenigma, idk I am in kde 3.5 and I cant even get it to do show in folder
[16:36] <Dr_Willis> YiMing:  I was thinking the locations of some of the atuff has moved. You may want to check out -> http://www.ubuntugeek.com/nautilus-pyextensions-nautilus-file-manager-python-extensions.html and see where they pyt things
[16:36] <groundnuty> Dr_Willis: but I guess that would require exacly the same vrsion fo ubutnu system?
[16:36] <pragmaticenigma> Guest58245: what version of Firefox do you have installed
[16:37] <Guest58245> pragmaticenigma, 3.6.12
[16:37] <Guest58245> pragmaticenigma, i prefer to use chrome, but I cant even get chrome to actually download a file for some reason it says it does, but all i get is a uncompleted crc file
[16:37] <pragmaticenigma> Guest58245: Is there any particular reason that you are running KDE 3.5?
[16:38] <krunal> wlan0     Interface doesn't support wireless statistic collection (can someone tell me why this is?) i wan to to know my link quality
[16:38] <Dr_Willis> groundnuty:  depends on how its compuiled.. static compiling = larger binary. but should run
[16:38] <abstrakt> hi, I compile software all the time, and I'm getting to the point where I'd like to start building packages instead, but I've heard that the debian build process is long and involved and it's something I've not wanted to deal with
[16:38] <abstrakt> recently
[16:38] <crimsun> abstrakt: perhaps you want to pop into #ubuntu-packaging or #ubuntu-motu
[16:38] <Guest58245> pragmaticenigma, kde 4.0 runs a lot slower to me and seems to hog my graphics card more
[16:38] <abstrakt> I saw what looked like a single command that, I can't remember, maybe the compile script was piped through it or the command was used to read/run the compile script?
[16:39] <YiMing> Dr_Willis:Thanks, I am trying
[16:39] <abstrakt> crimsun, hmm, ok thanks I will try those
[16:39] <abstrakt> crimsun, is it still on topic here though?
[16:39] <crimsun> abstrakt: no
[16:39] <abstrakt> I'm wondering if anyone knows this single command
[16:39] <vinnie_> can someone please help me? My routers subnet mask is set to 255.255.240.0 which is what it sets to automatically. But when i type ifconfig in a terminal it says my mask is 255.255.255.0. why is this?
[16:39] <pragmaticenigma> Guest58245: Can you open the file normally by going to the folder the file was downloaded to?
[16:40] <Guest58245> pragmaticenigma, yes
[16:40] <crimsun> vinnie_: are you implying that your router and your local machine are identical?  It's acceptable for the netmasks to differ.
[16:40] <LecramOS> Hallo, Sind hier auch deutsche ?   :)
[16:40] <velko> abstrakt, there is no such single command that i know of. look at http://www.debian.org/doc/maint-guide/ for instructions how to build a package
[16:40] <vinnie_> crimsun: ok. ty
[16:40] <crimsun> vinnie_: namely, they're connecting different nets, so there's certainly probability the outer nets are different.
[16:41] <Beefbaked> Hello, can someone help me troubleshoot my soundcard with Ubuntu? I am using a Realtek ALC888 and the sound really comes out awful at 100% volume. Bass is bust, treble is terrible
[16:41] <velko> abstrakt, or do you mean checkinstall perhaps?
[16:41] <pragmaticenigma> Guest58245: I'm not really sure why that would happen... You could go to Firefox -> Edit -> Preferences -> Applications Tab and try defining the file type there... otherwise, I usually download my fles and open them manually in the file browser, not through firefox
[16:41] <abstrakt> velko, hmm actually that sounds very much like what I remember
[16:41] <Guest58245> pragmaticenigma, okay ty will try that
[16:41] <abstrakt> velko, thanks :) I'll go look for docs on checkinstall
[16:42] <vinnie_> crimsun: everything is working as far as connecting to the internet. But im having a problem sharing folders between linux and windows. heres my setup.....
[16:42] <abstrakt> I thought it was --champange or something weird, lol so I think I was right up to about --ch... :)
[16:42] <velko> abstrakt, if you want to build good packages don't use checkinstall. it's a workaround, not a solution
[16:42] <crimsun> vinnie_: I'm not the best person to speak with regarding Linux/Windows connectivity.
[16:42] <abstrakt> velko, ah, ok
[16:42] <krunal> can someone please help me figure out how to check the link quality of my wireless connection? what mbps i'm connected at
[16:42] <Skapare> looks like the default ubuntu-10.10-amd64 install is 32-bit compatible ready, so I guess I will go try to install a genuine 32-bit version of firefox
[16:44] <pragmaticenigma> couldn't hurt Skapare... you could also download the binary from Firefox directly
[16:44] <pragmaticenigma> don't have to install over your existing installation
[16:45] <vinnie_> i have a windows box in room1 with cable modem connected to dlink router assigned as AP and I have a linux box in room2 connected to a linksys router configured as a repeater bridge which is conjnected wirelessly to the dlink router. Internet is fine, but cant see the windows box from linux and vise versy???
[16:45] <Guest58245> pragmaticenigma, okay question I accidentally clicked in firefox to use this link for all files when I chose to open like a text file with leafpad, now instead of bringing up the choose thing it wants to open everything in leafpad, is there a way to make it do the choose thing again?
[16:45] <erUSUL> krunal: iwconfig wlan0
[16:45] <vinnie_> can anyone please help?
[16:45] <YiMing> Dr_Willis: Hi,the nautilus-pyextensions tool show my tag extension has actived,and I found in the folder,it has a tag.pyc file. But,Still,It doesn't work
[16:45] <pragmaticenigma> Guest58245: I do not know what you did, I do not know how to reverse it
[16:46] <krunal> erUSUL, thank you..finally. apparently I have horrible link quality.. 57/100
[16:47] <erUSUL> krunal: too bad
[16:48] <Dr_Willis> ls
[16:48] <Dr_Willis> :) oops./..
[16:49] <jon__> Does anyone know how to view the UID and GID of a running process?
[16:50] <Beefbaked> What brands fully supports linux by releasing driver updates?
[16:50] <burningphantom1> crimsun, ive got the file
[16:50] <burningphantom1> err... url
[16:50] <pragmaticenigma> Beefbaked: what are you referring to? computer manufactures? hardware?
[16:51] <Beefbaked> Hardware, sorry.
[16:51] <pragmaticenigma> Beefbaked: any specific hardware?
[16:51] <jon__> Beefbaked, intel
[16:51] <Nisstyre65> ^
[16:51] <jon__> Beefbaked, that is, for wireless cards... broadcom sucks
[16:51] <pragmaticenigma> Beefbaked: jon__ is right, almost all of intel product lines are supported
[16:51] <Nisstyre65> broadcom released a native driver
[16:52] <Beefbaked> I am trying to understand Linux and drivers.
[16:52] <pragmaticenigma> jon__: the new opensource braodcom driver is nice
[16:52] <jon__> Nisstyre65, forget broadcom
[16:52] <NewOne> i was trying to install ubuntu on my laptop, and it's just got stak in the middle. when i reboot my grub won't work.: error: file not found. grub rescue>
[16:52] <jon__> f broadcom
[16:52] <Nisstyre65> jon__, obviously Atheros is beter
[16:52] <Nisstyre65> but I'm just saying
[16:52] <Beefbaked> so if a manufacturer like NVIDIA releases a product, they make sure they release updated linux drivers?
[16:52] <jon__> I'm bitter because I struggled with broadcom for a couple years
[16:52] <burningphantom1> yo, what should I do with this    http://filebin.ca/complete.php?id=4cf13429a4011
[16:52] <Nisstyre65> Beefbaked, yes
[16:52] <velko> jon__, a workaround would be to see the pid with ps and look up /proc/pid/status
[16:53] <Nisstyre65> Beefbaked, but not all
[16:53] <Beefbaked> Isn't that a hassle for them considering the kernel is updated often, and therefore would need to support multiple OS'es and probably even distribution?
[16:53] <jon__> velko, there's no direct route?
[16:53] <Nisstyre65> in nVidia's case, yeah
[16:53] <Nisstyre65> they're really good for it
[16:53] <Beefbaked> Sorry, I do not have a very deep understanding of linux
[16:53] <velko> jon__, maybe. i don't know it
[16:53] <pragmaticenigma> jon__: I have struggled as well, especially with package management tools not install all the dependencies to get the broadcom drivers working... but the latest native driver from broadcom works without any issues for me on two laptops
[16:53] <jon__> velko, gotcha, thanks for the pointer
[16:53] <Beefbaked> I am trying to understand how the open source economy works
[16:54] <bilalakhtar> !ot | Beefbaked
[16:54] <NewOne> i was trying to install ubuntu on my laptop, and it's just got stak in the middle. when i reboot my grub won't work.: error: file not found. grub rescue> !! what can i do ?
[16:54] <jon__> pragmaticenigma, well I just put a new intel card in from a dead laptop... so I guess I'm past all that now... but that is good to know in case I get that one working
[16:54] <pragmaticenigma> no probs... I will say that intel cards are much better
[16:55] <bilalakhtar> NewOne: Install again
[16:55] <pragmaticenigma> I alwasy have trouble with WPA keys
[16:55] <Nisstyre65> pragmaticenigma, Atheros wireless chips are better
[16:55] <jon__> Nisstyre65, I'm lovin this Intel Pro Wireless
[16:56] <Nisstyre65> when I think Intel I think processors...
[16:56] <Nisstyre65> Atheros are router quality chips
[16:56] <pragmaticenigma> Niss
[16:57] <pragmaticenigma> Nisstyre65: I've never worked with Atheros before
[16:57] <Nisstyre65> pragmaticenigma, they manufacture the wireless chips for most consumer and some industrial routers
[16:57] <pupuserc1803c> hi
[16:57] <pragmaticenigma> Nisstyre65: yeah, I've seen them being used on a podcast I like to watch from Hak5.org
[16:57] <Beefbaked> !op
[16:58] <Beefbaked> !ot
[16:58] <jon__> Nisstyre65, Hmm, I imagine theres a lot of validity to that, but I don't have the money for a chip. I'm not using my laptop as a gateway either, so I think this work for now
[16:58] <ikonia> Beefbaked: what ?
[16:58] <Beefbaked> ikonia: Just checking.
[16:58] <ikonia> Beefbaked: please don't use the !ops call unless there is an emergency
[16:58] <Marcus56> How do I remove desktopcouch from my system?
[16:58] <jon__> does anyone know how to check the UID and GID assigned to a user?
[16:58] <velko> ikonia, he mistaken op for ot
[16:58] <Beefbaked> Sorry.
[16:58] <NewOne> bilalakhtar ok tnx, even so i am using DOK (Make Startup Disk) in boot : SYSTEM 3.63 Debian ........Peter Anvin    Unknown keyword in configuration file.     boot: .! is there something wrong in my DOK ?
[16:59] <piglit> it seems i have a problem with firestarter it tells me it cant find eth0 so it wont start but if i do ifconfig then i see a eth2 and no eth0 what can i do to fix this?
[16:59] <bilalakhtar> NewOne: I don't know, why aren't you booting from the cd?
[16:59] <pupuserc1803c> what is hak5 ?
[17:00] <NewOne> bilalakhtar it's slower
[17:00] <bilalakhtar> NewOne: but that's the officially-supported method
[17:00] <pragmaticenigma> pupuserc1803c: Go to http://hak5.org to find out (It's an online podcast)
[17:00] <bilalakhtar> and recommended as well
[17:00] <NewOne> bilalakhtar and this time it got stak
[17:00] <NewOne> ah ok
[17:00] <bilalakhtar> hmm, I can't help then, I don't have that much information about the boot process
[17:00] <NewOne> bilalakhtar and this time it got stak even with the cd
[17:01] <pupuserc1803c> i'm not english, what mean poadcast?
[17:01] <Matthew__> hi.  http://pastebin.com/6qMNyN04 is there something wrong with the way I am setting the permissions pls?
[17:01] <velko> jon__, id

[17:03] <NewOne> bilalakhtar isn't not  the same way in DOk with the CD ?
[17:03] <bilalakhtar> NewOne: sorry I don't knw
[17:03] <Dr_Willis> jon__:  on ubuntu the uid and gid i think are normally the same

[17:05] <velko> Lre, a lot of people indeed. but this is english only channel
[17:05] <jon__> velko, I'm guess effective ids are the ones that apply to whatever process executes the id command? in this case terminal, which has the UID and GID of my user?
[17:05] <jon__> Dr_Willis, i noticed that, I'm just trying to get familiar with how all of this actually looks as I'm reading about Linux process

[17:09] <st> yoghrt, do you see 'eth' devices in ifconfig output?
[17:09] <jon__> kichawa, I'm not sure what you mean by "screen application" is there a program called screen?
[17:09] <yoghrt> no, i can see it when i type ifconfig -a

[17:11] <BluesKaj> !NIS
[17:11] <pelmen> Besogon: i believe i have configured it properly. Basically i can manually start service no problem, and it works exactly as i want it to work, but IT DOES NOT autorstart with server....
[17:11] <HaPK_PerCar> I'm trying to run Zsnes but it won't run... I executed it in the terminal ad says that it can't find the libao.so.2
[17:12] <yoghrt> it's named eth2 so i did sudo ifconfig eth2 up and I didn't get any error
[17:12] <Besogon> Don't anybody face with the problem of old program and font in them? (Play station emulator for instance
[17:12] <jon__> yoghrt, if you do ifconfig again, doesit show up?
[17:12] <yoghrt> yes it does! great

[17:13] <jon__> yoghrt, you should just need to config IP's now, and you'll be set
[17:13] <Dr_Willis> Besogon:  depends on how the progarm is coded i would imagine.
[17:13] <burningphantom1> crimsun, invite me!
[17:13] <yoghrt> ok, so i put 192.168.1.1 on my pc
[17:13] <crimsun> burningphantom1: as before, you can join yourself
[17:13] <yoghrt> and .2 on laptop
[17:13] <jon__> yoghrt, yea
[17:13] <yoghrt> and set gateway 192.168.1.1 on my laptop
[17:13] <yoghrt> what's next?
[17:13] <burningphantom1> Im still not used to irc you know
[17:13] <jon__> yoghrt, you don't need a gateway
[17:14] <HaPK_PerCar> I'm trying to run Zsnes but it won't run... I executed it in the terminal ad says that it can't find the libao.so.2 library... what can I do here?
[17:14] <Besogon> Packet Traker from Cisco http://imagebin.org/125078 (I think WINE version works better at this point)
[17:14] <Besogon> Dr_Willis,
[17:14] <jon__> yoghrt, long story short they will communicate properly with those IPs, do a test ping (make sure the firewall on windows allows ICMP Echo)
[17:14] <Silicone> hello, can somebody help me with TVtime??
[17:14] <Demolitio> hey everyone..... anyone experiencing some pretty bad bugs with Empathy and the MSN protocol?
[17:14] <Silicone> i can't run tvtime, just starting the program, then just quit...
[17:14] <Dr_Willis> Silicone:  run it from terminal, look for error messages
[17:14] <yoghrt> they both run ubuntu
[17:14] <burningphantom1> I just cant remember your server name
[17:15] <HaPK_PerCar> Demolitio, I'm experiencing them with pidgin
[17:15] <gps23> how can i disable rpcbind process?
[17:15] <jon__> yoghrt, O, well you should be able to ping back and forth then
[17:15] <gps23> or rpcbind service
[17:15] <yoghrt> i followed some tutorial and it said to set gateway and everything in /etc/network/interaces so... should i remove that?
[17:15] <Silicone> Dr_Willis, http://paste.ubuntu.com/537123/
[17:15] <caz> Hi there. I'm looking for a pro in sound settings and soundcard setup
[17:16] <wn1zid> http://globalresearch.ca/index.php?context=va&aid=22126.
[17:16] <Markive> Helpers, can I mount a remote folder so it turns up in my places?
[17:16] <wn1zid> sry wrong room
[17:17] <janisozaur> !log
[17:17] <jon__> yoghrt, you don't need it but it doesn't hurt if it's there.  You only need a gateway if you are trying to connect to something on another LAN
[17:17] <Demolitio> HaPK_PerCar: are the issues you are experiencing disconnects and messages not being sent through the network?
[17:17] <Demolitio> maybe it's a protocol glitch.
[17:17] <HaPK_PerCar> Demolitio, I guess the people at MSN changed the certificates...
[17:17] <vichy> Hello everyone
[17:17] <jon__> yoghrt, specifically, if you want to get to the internet you'll need a gateway
[17:18] <velko> Markive, if the remote machine runs openssh-server you can use nautilus "connect to server" and add bookmark for the remote folder
[17:18] <HaPK_PerCar> Demolitio, no other thing to do than wait for the certificates to be renovated
[17:18] <HaPK_PerCar> Demolitio, or use aMSN
[17:18] <Silicone> Dr_Willis,  any suggestions?
[17:18] <pupuserc1803c> are you american?
[17:19] <Demolitio> HaPK_PerCar: nuts. I just can't wait for Digsby to release their Linux version.
[17:19] <Silicone> Dr_Willis,  runned mplayer -vf pp=ac tv:// -tv device=/dev/video1:driver=v4l2:normid=6:freq=183.15:input=0 and it shows me
[17:19] <HaPK_PerCar> can someone help me with my Zsens problem?

[17:23] <gps23> velko: i tried to purge it, but apt-get says its not installed
[17:23] <Dr_Willis> HaPK_PerCar:  and the problem is what exactly?
[17:24] <yoghrt> jon__, and they can't ping each other
[17:24] <HaPK_PerCar> Dr_Willis, here's what it comes out zsnes: error while loading shared libraries: libao.so.2: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

[17:25] <Demolitio> HaPK_PerCar: do you have a listing of different MSN messenger server addresses I can try?
[17:25] <oxidizer> any body tell me how to get yahoo messenger in ubuntu 10.10
[17:26] <HaPK_PerCar> Dr_Willis, 64 bits, I got a deb package made for 64 bits installs

  yaa but video chat is not happening
[17:28] <HaPK_PerCar> Dr_Willis, so I need to check for those packages?
[17:28] <qwertypo> What is with the Freenode notice?
[17:28] <jon__> what is SASL?
[17:28] <Walzmyn> what is sasl?
[17:28] <jon__> haha
[17:28] <Hut> owner__: have you installed all required codecs?

[17:28] <IdleOne> Ignore the spam bot folks
[17:28] <oxidizer> Crimsun :  yaa but video chat is not happening
[17:28] <bilalakhtar> qwertypo, jon__ , Walzmyn : That was spam, ignore it
[17:29] <owner__> how wood I go about doing that?
[17:29] <Walzmyn> oh
[17:29] <IdleOne> xxx_wen: #java
[17:29] <gps23> damn, its due to portmap daemon
[17:29] <jon__> check

[17:29] <xxx_wen> ok IdleOne

[17:29] <yoghrt> sry
[17:29] <xxx_wen> IdleOne:  Cannot join #java (Channel is invite only).
[17:29] <jon__> yoghrt, sudo ifconfig eth2  etc etc
[17:29] <yoghrt> jon__, not sudo ifconfig del {IPV6 ADDRESS} but the one with ip4
[17:30] <Hut> owner you have to install some packages from universe and some from multiverse wait i will provide you with a link
[17:30] <janisozaur> xxx_wen, register at freenode
[17:30] <jon__> yoghrt, i forgot to specify the interface in my original message
[17:30] <IdleOne> !register | xxx_wen
[17:30] <qwertypo> I guess my question would be, is there a way to make the chntpw package in Ubuntu more interactive? To not have all the manula typing.
[17:30] <qwertypo> *manual
[17:30] <yoghrt> jon__, so i should do  sudo ifconfig address eth2 192.168.1.1 ?
[17:30] <Hut> owner__: https://help.ubuntu.com/7.04/musicvideophotos/C/codecs.html but sadly i dont know if the package structure is still like taht
[17:30] <Hut> *that
[17:31] <jon__> yoghrt, sudo ifconfig eth2 address 192.168.1.1 netmask 255.255.255.0
[17:31] <jon__> yoghrt, brb
[17:31] <jon__> yoghrt, that should work though
[17:31] <yoghrt> jon__, ok thanks ^_^
[17:31] <yoghrt> jon__, would you ping me when you're back?
[17:31] <Hut> owner__: http://www.ubuntugeek.com/install-mplayer-and-multimedia-codecs-libdvdcss2w32codecsw64codecs-in-ubuntu-10-10-maverick-meerkat.html this might be for you
[17:33] <HazardX> in an upstart job, what should I do to make it *never* start?
[17:33] <bilalakhtar> HazardX: Rename its .conf file in /etc/init/ to have .disabled at the end
[17:33] <goldroger> remove it from upstart
[17:33] <BadUser> 0hai
[17:33] <bilalakhtar> eg foo.conf.disabled
[17:33] <bilalakhtar> HazardX: ^
[17:33] <HazardX> I'll try that
[17:34] <HazardX> (upstart has been causing me no-end-of-pain)
[17:34] <yoghrt> thank's to jon__ my pc's ping each other but i don't have internet connection on my laptop if someone was following the conversation and could help i'd appreciate it
[17:34] <goldroger> yoghrt: what seems to be the problem ?
[17:35] <dfcnvt> i got bluetooth problem... This is what I got in the result http://imgur.com/TGotI
[17:35] <HazardX> bilalakhtar/goldroger: do you happen to know if ureadahead does anything if your root filesystem is on NFS?
[17:35] <Hut> HazardX: it's also called up-your-ass
[17:35] <yoghrt> i have 2 computers, my laptop and pc connected via cross cable; they see each other, i can ping one from another but i want to access internet from my laptop and i can't
[17:35] <bilalakhtar> HazardX: no idea
[17:35] <HazardX> hut: ?
[17:35] <IdleOne> !language | Hut
[17:35] <bilalakhtar> !language | Hut
[17:35] <Hut> :O
[17:35] <jon__> yoghrt, how do you connect to the net?
[17:35] <goldroger> of course not I don't think so
[17:36] <Darxus> I have a maverick iso on a hard drive, no bootable hard drive, and a bootable karmic cd.  And only one cd drive.  What's the shortest way to get maverick installed?  Do I really need to temporarily install karmic to burn the maverick cd?
[17:36] <goldroger> NFS comes into picture only after the system is booted up I guess
[17:36] <yoghrt> jon__, via modem (adsl)
[17:36] <Hut> pretty stiff here xD
[17:36] <lazarus_> black betty - ram jam
[17:36] <HazardX> goldroger, that'd be tricky in my case, since my root filesystem *IS* nfs
[17:36] <dfcnvt> I looked all over on the internet. No avail... I've already installed blueman, bluetooth, apex-server, bluez... I dunno what else..
[17:36] <goldroger> oh
[17:36] <yoghrt> jon__, i have a program from my isp and it connects me to the internet with username/password
[17:37] <HazardX> which already means the upstart scripts never activate networking or filesystem mounting [since the kernel did at boot], so a number of things just don't start)
[17:37] <dfcnvt> I want to browse my cellphone via bluetooth, I need to know which program do I need to go get them...
[17:37] <goldroger> oh
[17:37] <goldroger> ok
[17:37] <HazardX> And due to apparently nobody ever comprehending that a system could boot without networking *OR* filesystem mounting scripts, there's jack info about how to configure upstart to behave with it.
[17:38] <yoghrt> jon__, Is everything i had done saved automatically? so i won't have to repeat that afeter reboot?
[17:39] <blackrock> Hi, where do I find the help.ubuntu.com site's source?
[17:40] <jon__> yoghrt, it should be set so that when you boot up it maintains that, because you edited the /etc/interfaces
[17:40] <jon__> yoghrt, the one that can't access the internet, is it connected to a router?
[17:40] <yoghrt> jon__, no it's connected to my desktop pc via cross cable
[17:41] <goldroger> cross cable ?
[17:41] <goldroger> serial cable ?
[17:41] <jon__> goldroger, crossover
[17:41] <goldroger> oh
[17:41] <goldroger> ok
[17:41] <Dr_Willis> crossover network :)
[17:41] <goldroger> then ssh from one to the other
[17:41] <goldroger> and access internet
[17:41] <jon__> yoghrt, your laptop won't be able to connect to the internet unless your desktop is routing
[17:42] <jon__> yoghrt, which isn't too difficult, but I haven't done it
[17:42] <yoghrt> jon__, ok where do I search for help?
[17:42] <Dr_Willis> !ics
[17:43] <jon__> thanks Dr_Willis
[17:43] <Skapare> pragmaticenigma: hmmm ... even FF 4.0 will be 32-bit only
[17:43] <BadUser> -r?
[17:44] <demonspork> if I use LVM to put 6 1TB drives in RAID5, can I expand the array without reformatting the OS
[17:44] <pragmaticenigma> yeah... I think they just want to maintain one code base
[17:45] <pragmaticenigma> Skapare: There is nothing wrong with running 32bit on a 64bit machine... it just has left over bits :-)
[17:45] <demonspork> lol
[17:45] <demonspork> not exactly
[17:45] <Skapare> one code base can do both 32-bit and 64-bit, even on one multiple architectures ... BTDT
[17:45] <demonspork> 64bit Windows systems have the 32bit libraries built in, but 64bit linux doesn't have that requirement
[17:45] <pragmaticenigma> Skapare: true, but the 64bit is restricted somewhat by what 32bit limits are
[17:45] <Skapare> pragmaticenigma: trying to figure out how to get Ubuntu to install the 32-bit version ... apparently the real issue is the base of plugins
[17:46] <caz> Is anyone here a pro of sound drivers and devices ?
[17:46] <Stava> :o
[17:46] <Volny__> Hi there
[17:46] <BadUser> sound drivers are a m355
[17:46] <pragmaticenigma> Skapare: you might want to go to mozilla.org and download the *.bin file for firefox
[17:46] <yoghrt> I installed firestarter, run the wizzard and I still get unknown host...
[17:46] <caz> m355?
[17:46] <pragmaticenigma> I had to use that on my CentOS machine until CentOS released a more up-to-date version
[17:47] <BadUser> Linux can be compared to a Slylandro drone
[17:47] <UserX7> 10.04 booting problems. Deleting "quiet splash" from grub's boot options seems to work. What's the file I can edit to make this permanent?
[17:47] <Skapare> pragmaticenigma: well, I disagree that compiling in 64-bit leaves it with 32-bit limits ... OTOH, a web browser exceeding 4GB has more issues beyond whether it is 32-bit or 64-bit ... e.g. if it gets that bloated, it's time for it to _exit()
[17:47] <Volny__> Would anyone know how to install Ubuntu in text mode ?
[17:48] <HazardX> UserX7, /boot/grub/grub.conf (there's some trickery to make it permanant accross kernel updates, but you should be able to figure it out for now)
[17:48] <pragmaticenigma> Skapare: we should move this convo to a private message
[17:48] <IdleOne> !alternate | Volny__
[17:48] <HazardX> Volny__, the alternate installer disks, or use debootstrap (and some other linux box -- not for the feint of heart)
[17:48] <Volny__> I have the alternate CD
[17:49] <Volny__> But how do I get it not to load X
[17:49] <UserX7> HazardX: I don't have that file, but /boot/grub/grub.cfg
[17:49] <HazardX> UserX7, that's prossibly it, its also sometimes called menu.lst (among others)
[17:49] <demonspork> Volny__, the alternate cd doesn't load X
[17:49] <IdleOne> Volny__: you don't want a GUI when done installing?
[17:49] <UserX7> HazardX: This is grub2 by the way. You're thinking of grub-legacy files
[17:50] <HaPK_PerCar> can someone help me with my Zsnes problem? it won't run
[17:50] <Volny__> I do, but my installer crashes almost instantly
[17:50] <Volny__> I figured that was because of my cirrus graphic VGA card
[17:50] <demonspork> Volny__, alternate CD doesn't use X, so it should load fine
[17:51] <Ekushey> I have a friend who installed unity on this desktop but now wants to revert it... logging out and choosing gnome as the session will do the job?
[17:51] <Volny__> Well, that settles it. Even the alternate CD won't boot on my machine. Thanks anyway
[17:52] <Volny__> I'll stick with OpenBSD, which does doot on my machine.
[17:52] <suprengr> Volny__: you checked your cd drive lately?
[17:52] <taofd> how would i restart the service that manages my touchpad / is there a way to reload my touchpad (synaptic) drivers without restarting?
[17:52] <yoghrt> ubottu, I installed firestarter, run the wizzard but it didn't help, does that mean that firestarter won't work or I did something wrong?
[17:52] <Volny__> Yes
[17:53] <suprengr> Volny__: ok... just a thought
[17:53] <Volny__> My problem is that I want to swap from BSD to Linux
[17:53] <IdleOne> Volny__: you might try the !minimal cd
[17:54] <Volny__> I'll look for minimal cd right now
[17:54] <Volny__> thanks
[17:54] <suprengr> !minimal
[17:54] <Volny__> Just for fun, as I'm currently using the very computer I want to update
[17:55] <Volny__> Is ther a way to install right from OpenBSD, without burning a CD
[17:55] <johnwi> my system is running ubuntu 10.04 x64, now i want to install kubuntu 10.10 ... can i keep my home directory which is on a seperate partition or do i have to backup my home folder and copy the data back after installation?
[17:56] <virusuy> johnwi: you can keep it
[17:56] <bob__> Hello.  I installed ubuntu via USB stick.  Things have been working well, and I've added a few non-standard packages with the package manager.  The packages installed ok, but update manager wants to re-sync, and it insists that I put the install CD/DVD into the cd tray.  I'm not about to put the USB stick in the cd tray (not gonnna do it).  The USB stick (remains) plugged in and mounted.  How do I get update manager pointing at it?
[17:56] <Volny__> Never mind, and thanks everyone. I'll try at once. Bye
[17:56] <virusuy> johnwi: just user the same username in kubuntu
[17:57] <johnwi> sure
[17:57] <johnwi> thanks
[17:57] <virusuy> johnwi: or backup that folder and create a new user in kubuntu, copy all the files and folder from the old folder
[17:58] <johnwi> hmm
[17:58] <virusuy> johnwi: it's the same
[17:58] <johnwi> so i'll still have all my files if i install kubuntu and create a user with the same name?

[18:03] <jon__> I'm reading some stuff on the kernel... am I correct in understanding that even input devices like the mouse and keyboard are considered files?
[18:03] <sT331h0rs3> Then you can choose that repo.
[18:04] <bob__> I'll look around for answers. thanks bye
[18:04] <sT331h0rs3> But if you remove it and have soft from it, it (soft) just becomes 'local'.
[18:05] <alteregoa> i still wonder why some standard functions change with a dist upgrade
[18:05] <slackster> jon__, I think you are correct, #linux might be a good room general questions. The attention span can be short in here.

[18:10] <sensisensi> hi. i was installing NES emulator from software center (ubuntu 10.10) and it didnt finish installing. now it keeps showing a message "items cannot be removed or installed until the package catalogue is repaired". i try to repair but it says failed. can anyone help?
[18:11] <HaPK_PerCar> sensisensi, you have to remove the packages first and then reinstall them
[18:11] <HaPK_PerCar> sensisensi, you can do that with synaptic
[18:11] <Dreki> is there a way to set my network connections to use DHCP for everything accept use a custom DNS?
[18:11] <john__> How do I restore data with restore?
[18:12] <virusuy> sensisensi: or using CLI
[18:12] <sT331h0rs3> Or: "use dpkg, Luke" ;)
[18:12] <Besogon> Dreki, yes. but in this case you ave to rid from Network manager I suppose
[18:12] <Besogon> have to
[18:12] <john__> as usaual  the 10.10 version caused me to need a complete reinstall
[18:13] <john__> so now I need to install from backup
[18:13] <Dreki> Besogon ok, whats the best way to do it then?
[18:13] <jon_athon> Sweet, new name
[18:13] <john__> I used dump
[18:14] <john__> so now I need restore

[18:14] <john__> help?
[18:14] <sensisensi> HaPK_PerCar: thanks!
[18:15] <Besogon> Dreki, I found. Customise /etc/dhcp3/dhcpd.conf
[18:15] <rockets> Is there a way to tell if the Ubuntu disk I have is 32bit or 64bit?
[18:15] <Besogon> Dreki, And /etc/resolve.conf after it.
[18:16] <Besogon> Dreki, to add DNS manually
[18:16] <st> rockets, no
[18:16] <karthick87> How secure is Ubuntu when compared to other distros?
[18:17] <Besogon> Dreki, Oh. I was wrong. Change "dhclient.conf"
[18:17] <john__> You MUST do a ufw enable!
[18:17] <Guest82065> I upgraded to 10.10, from 10.04, and my left click likes to hang. Other than that, it's pretty good.
[18:17] <john__> I use a C3 security setup
[18:17] <slackster> karthick87, if you use a strong password, and get the updates, it's fine
[18:17] <rockets> There must be some way to tell if a disc is 32 or 64
[18:18] <john__> that is reasonably safe
[18:18] <Dreki> Besogon thanks a bunch
 Is there a way to tell if the Ubuntu disk I have is 32bit or 64bit? Won't uname-a work ?
[18:18] <john__> I like bastille
[18:18] <NateG> are you loaded into the live cd?
[18:18] <rockets> blaze1024, I'm in Windows right now. Anyway I found it. readme.diskdefines on the disk.
[18:19] <rockets> It shows Architecture i386
[18:19] <NateG> oh, ok.
[18:19] <NateG> i think i386 is 32-bit.
[18:19] <rockets> Although I could have just booted the thing in VMWare. Silly me.
[18:19] <NateG> i could be wrong though.
[18:19] <blaze1024> if you boot to a live cd and open a term won't uname -a tell you ?
[18:19] <rockets> NateG, I know it is.
[18:19] <rockets> blaze1024, yes, it would.

[18:40] <FrozenFire[work]> Stava, It's worth noting that the DHCP range is usually .100-200 on consumer routers. If you're using a static IP, put it within the 50-99 range to avoid IP conflicts.
[18:40] <FrozenFire[work]> Stava, You should also specify a broadcast IP.
[18:40] <FrozenFire[work]> And, of course, nameservers.
[18:40] <FrozenFire[work]> Stava, Additionally, you might need to specify allow-hotplug
[18:40] <theGman> Anyone know why this: "apt-get install linux-image-2.6.35-6-generic linux-headers-2.6.35-6-generic" isn't working?

[18:45] <FrozenFire[work]> Stava, Don't change the DHCP range. What I'm saying is that the static IP you're setting for your server is going to conflict with the DHCP range.
[18:45] <Stava> theGman, apt-get dist-upgrade i believe
[18:45] <New0> how do i use : ls? to display screen by screen? in smb:
[18:45] <FrozenFire[work]> Keep static IP addresses out of the DHCP range.

[18:49] <FrozenFire[work]> nondraj, Your question is too vague. If you have a specific scenario which you'd like to address, I might be able to offer advice.
[18:49] <goldroger> nekdo: the cp command ?
[18:49] <FrozenFire[work]> New0, What's not working?
[18:49] <goldroger> oh
[18:49] <goldroger> ok theGman
[18:50] <Guest76324> ARGH! now I cannot browse the filesystem or get menus when right clicking on the menu...
[18:50] <New0> FrozenFire[work] ls | more || ls | less
[18:50] <nondraj> lol ?
[18:50] <lestat> huhu
[18:50] <theGman> So I still need to get the kernel updated...to at least 2.6.35 sugestions?
[18:51] <FrozenFire[work]> New0, Well, it should. more and less are both paginators.
[18:51] <schambers> is there a plugin/shortcut in gedit that allows you to easily switch between open files? I don't like using the mouse to do that
[18:51] <nekdo> but how do i copy whole map?
[18:51] <FrozenFire[work]> more is slightly more dated than less, but they do essentially the same thing.
[18:51] <FrozenFire[work]> more will spit things out one page at a time.
[18:51] <FrozenFire[work]> less will allow scrolling through the output.
[18:51] <theGman> schambers: Sure...use the view tabs...
[18:51] <goldroger> what is a map
[18:51] <nekdo> acpi_call
[18:51] <goldroger> @nekdo
[18:51] <nekdo> is name of map
[18:51] <theGman> schambers: Or check the settings and tell it to open docs in new tabs.
[18:51] <goldroger> map ?
[18:51] <schambers> theGman: those work, but I would rather crtl-tab between them with a popup window or something
[18:52] <goldroger> sorry I am not aware of what a 'map' means
[18:52] <FrozenFire[work]> schambers, Ctrl-Alt-Left or Right, if I recall correctly.
[18:52] <nekdo> i have map acpi_call in the map i have .sh scripts
[18:52] <goldroger> do you mean a directory ?
[18:52] <FrozenFire[work]> Err, wait, that's the workspace switcher
[18:52] <nekdo> i need to copy whole with map to /lib/modules/`uname -r`/kernel/
[18:52] <theGman> schambers: Then just open each doc in it's own gedit. No other way I'm aware of.
[18:52] <nekdo> jes okey directory..
[18:52] <BigC_> goldroger: did you find out if it was in the 2.6.38 kernel, or the 2.6.37?
[18:52] <schambers> ah. that stinks
[18:52] <goldroger> nekdo: sudo cp -r map_name /lib/modules/`uname -r`/kernel
[18:52] <IvaN^> lol
[18:52] <schambers> crtl-alt pgup/pgdow is next/previous tab
[18:53] <nekdo> -r doesnt that mean remove?
[18:53] <schambers> i was hoping there was a way to navigate between last open tab
[18:53] <goldroger> BigC_:  Though the merge window is now closed for the Linux 2.6.37 kernel, the new patch should make it into version 2.6.38.
[18:53] <goldroger> so ya 2.6.38 I guess, I was wrong
[18:54] <FrozenFire[work]> schambers, http://live.gnome.org/Gedit/KeyboardShortcuts

[19:01] <RenatoSilva> how to undo apt-get build-dep?
[19:01] <Zesturian> Hey all. I used to run on Karmic, on which I had tripple head running, did a clean install of Maverick a few days ago and what ever I try I can't seem to get my 2nd GPU recognised by the nvidia driver (possibly X), what has changed and are there any solutions please?
[19:02] <BigC_> Zesturian !Nvidia
[19:03] <Dr_Willis> Zesturian:  i had issues where the 2 nvidia cards i were using - used differnt versions of the nvidia driver.
[19:03] <BigC_> Zesturian: sorry about that, look here. For Ati/NVidia/Matrox video cards, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[19:04] <Dr_Willis> Zesturian:  also had an issue where ic ould use the nvidia-settings tool to get 3 heads going.. but i never survuvbed a reboot.
[19:06] <IrishWristwatch> good morning
[19:06] <Zesturian> Dr_Willis, I don't think driver should be an issue, both are identical cards. BigC_ thanks, I installed from the website still to no avail, it's actually the detection of the second GPU within X that seems to be the issue, I specified a BusID and it throws a fit within X and refuses to start, one second, I'll pastesite the error.
[19:07] <gamil> Hi irish
[19:07] <barberan> My ubuntu 10.10 does not understand .rar archives type. How do I make it understand it ?
[19:07] <gamil> upgraded from 8.04 to 10.10 but my crystal semiconductor sound card is not working
[19:08] <gamil> can someone help?
[19:08] <BigC_> barberan: install the p7zip package
[19:08] <Zesturian> Dr_Willis, BigC_, I can alternate between them if I modify xorg.conf manually, but both running, no dice.
[19:08] <J4nus> brad, "sudo apt-get install unrar"
[19:08] <Sean93> how do i convert .mkv to .avi?? also i have about 10 files to do this with
[19:08] <magicianlord> J4nus: p7zip-full
[19:08] <J4nus> Sean93, use mencoder
[19:08] <Braber01> In ubuntu 10.04 I can't get X to start it Says somthing about No protocall specfiecd when running startx.
[19:08] <magicianlord> 7zip is superior to all other compression formats
[19:09] <FrozenFire> barberan, I would recommend installing ubuntu-restricted-extras
[19:09] <Braber01> I'm in the process of using my dad's computer to burn 10.10 to a CD
[19:09] <New0> i have sony vpcf12 with Nvidia card GT 330M those someone know what open source driver do i need?
[19:09] <shane4ubuntu> does anyone know of any problems with cups on Maverick?
[19:09] <J4nus> magicianlord, does it include the rar algorithm ?
[19:10] <BigC_> Zesturian: you might also want to ask in #xorg as well
[19:10] <Sean93> J4nus, is there a mencoder gui?
[19:10] <Braber01> yeah um I can't get XWin to start, I can run `startx` but it just shows a black screen and the command line says somethingabout no protocall specified :(
[19:10] <shane4ubuntu> I have a network printer that always worked great, UNTIL I upgraded to Maverick.  Now when I print, it says printer not connected, printer lights flash and I have to turn it off and back on, lots of issues.
[19:11] <J4nus> Sean93, there is to encode dvd (like acidrip) but not to convert files or i don't know it
[19:11] <J4nus> but you can look for the cmd line mode, it's easy to use, you can find some examples on google
[19:12] <BigC_> Sean93: you could also try handbrake as well, but i am not sure if it can convert to .avi
[19:12] <_TexNick_> Sean93 : Kdenlive & Cinelerra are both good video converter / editors
[19:12] <shane4ubuntu> I'm not sure where to lay the blame, but I'm pretty sure it is cups, I can print via command line, but not through evince, and openoffice has lots of issues printing too.
[19:12] <Zesturian> BigC_, thanks. Be back shortly, I need to force the error as its been logrotated too many times.
[19:12] <abstrakt> if I want my "deploy" user to be able to run a2ensite and a2dissite without entering a password for sudo
[19:12] <Braber01> has anybody had issues with getting X windows to start on 10.04 lately?
[19:12] <abstrakt> how would that line look in visudo (aka /etc/sudoers)
[19:13] <shane4ubuntu> Sean93: ffmpeg is a little simpler on the command line, is a very good option
[19:13] <magicianlord> abstrakt: visudo is impossible to use
[19:13] <FrozenFire> Sean93, For doing a number of file conversions, ffmpeg is what I would suggest.
[19:13] <FrozenFire> A bit of bash-fu, and you're gold.
[19:13] <abstrakt> magicianlord, ? works for me
[19:14] <magicianlord> abstrakt: how do you make changes and move to the next line, then save?
[19:14] <Braber01> I can't get the tcsh to auto complete for me do I use a diffrent key combo?
[19:14] <abstrakt> magicianlord, you, um... learn how to use vi... :)
[19:14] <abstrakt> magicianlord, type vimtutor on your command line some time
[19:14] <FrozenFire> magicianlord, Using VI can be a bit tricky at first, but you learn. It's not my preferred editor, but it's very powerful when you learn to use it.
[19:14] <magicianlord> abstrakt: impossible :( i use nano
[19:14] <abstrakt> magicianlord, um, decidedly not impossible
[19:14] <abstrakt> *anyway*
[19:14] <magicianlord> how do you save in vi
[19:14] <Braber01> emacs can be a mudclient if you dare to script in elisp.
[19:15] <Braber01> :w
[19:15] <abstrakt> magicianlord, dude, run vimtutor
[19:15] <magicianlord> where is that
[19:15] <abstrakt> magicianlord, open up gnome-terminal and type "vimtutor"
[19:15] <abstrakt> magical, except without the quotes
[19:15] <magicianlord> ok
[19:15] <abstrakt> magicianlord, ^
[19:15] <magicianlord> on ubuntu?
[19:15] <abstrakt> magicianlord, yes on ubuntu
[19:15] <abstrakt> magicianlord, or if you prefer, there's this viemu.com/a_vi_vim_graphical_cheat_sheet_tutorial.html
[19:15] <magicianlord> thanks homie
[19:16] <shane4ubuntu> abstrakt: vimtutor, that is a nice tip, I recently started learning vi, but didn't know about vimtutor.
[19:16] <abstrakt> hmm, http://viemu.com/a_vi_vim_graphical_cheat_sheet_tutorial.html
[19:16] <abstrakt> shane4ubuntu, I hate vi incidentally
[19:16] <abstrakt> shane4ubuntu, but I love vim :)
[19:16] <magicianlord> i like nano and leafpad
[19:16] <abstrakt> that's nice
[19:16] <abstrakt> now
[19:16] <shane4ubuntu> abstrakt: ahh, ok, vim, I guess that is what I started learning, I always prefered nano, simple straightforward
[19:17] <abstrakt> what would be the proper syntax for a line in /etc/sudoers to allow a given user to run a given command without requiring the password
[19:17] <magicianlord> whats better to install pynotify, or notification-daemon
[19:17] <abstrakt> like if I want my deploy user to be able to run a2ensite without needing a password
[19:18] <FrozenFire> abstrakt, I believe the NOPASSWD tag is what you're looking for
[19:18] <abstrakt> FrozenFire, right but where does that go?
[19:18] <abstrakt> how should it look? just for that one user and just for that one command
[19:18] <abstrakt> shane4ubuntu, do you program much?
[19:19] <shane4ubuntu> abstrakt: no, only script here and there
[19:19] <FrozenFire> abstrakt, Given that I know you're competent, I have to say RTFM :P
[19:19] <iFith> VISUAL=nano visudo
[19:19] <FrozenFire> man sudoers
[19:19] <FrozenFire> "ray    rushmore = NOPASSWD: /bin/kill, /bin/ls, /usr/bin/lprm"
[19:20] <abstrakt> or you could be a cool dude and just give me the line, because I know you're competent and I know you know I'm competent
[19:20] <abstrakt> but whatever, that's fine
[19:20] <FrozenFire> :P
[19:20] <abstrakt> honestly it's a PITA to look up the docs on some of this stuff
[19:20] <abstrakt> when I know someone in here just knows the exact syntax off the top of their head
[19:20] <shane4ubuntu> abstrakt: he he, I agree.
[19:20] <lance> lance
[19:21] <doc|home> abstrakt: yeah, why wouldn't someone invent a website to help with searching for these things. We could call it a "search engine"
[19:21] <FreakyCheeseMan> Hey all. Trying to install Ubuntu 64-bit on a new, high-end machine. Pretty sure it's failing to recognize the hard drive, as it says it lacks enough space and won't let me proceed- also, GParted says "no devices detected". Running off the live CD now. Halp?
[19:21] <abstrakt> shane4ubuntu, incidentally if you want, you can put export EDITOR=nano in your .bashrc
[19:21] <AnonymousCoward> ,s
[19:21] <doc|home> abstrakt: and give them funny names like "google" and "bing"
[19:21] <abstrakt> doc|home, dude, have you seen the state of some of the docs that people write? please don't preach to the choir
[19:21] <shane4ubuntu> abstrakt: thanks, did that. :)
[19:21] <Guest21222> can somebody please help me here
[19:21] <doc|home> abstrakt: hehe, I just couldn't resist that :)
[19:22] <shane4ubuntu> abstrakt: 9 times out of 10, I just need an example of how to use the command, or need to see a conf file.
[19:22] <iFith> or for programs that just use "sensible-editor" you can run "select-editor" and set the one you like
[19:23] <FreakyCheeseMan> Anyone know anything about getting ubuntu to recognize a hard drive?
[19:23] <Guest21222> Can someone respond I really need help please
[19:23] <abstrakt> shane4ubuntu, totally
[19:23] <abstrakt> omg, screw this crap... I hate join/part messages :(
[19:23] <FrozenFire> abstrakt, by the way, adding a user to the "sudo" group on Debian-based systems will, as I understand it, globally exempt them from password requirements.
[19:24] <marathon> hey
[19:24] <marathon> can anyone help me with some simple JAVA code?
[19:24] <shane4ubuntu> !question | Guest21222
[19:24] <abstrakt> FrozenFire, um, no that just allows you to run sudo commands
[19:24] <FreakyCheeseMan> >marathon Mebbe.
[19:24] <abstrakt> FrozenFire, it doesn't exempt you from needing a password
[19:24] <ronghail> sorry reasking this because of the split earlier.  there is a picture here that shows machine A with the same address on eth0 and tun0.  is that right or should tun0 have another address?  https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SSH_VPN
[19:24] <FrozenFire> abstrakt, I don't believe so. The exempt_group setting in the sudoers file is set to sudo on Debian systems.
[19:24] <marathon> its too big to ask on here
[19:24] <theGman> exit
[19:24] <shane4ubuntu> !PM > Guest21222
[19:25] <FrozenFire> abstrakt, Similarly, I'm able to sudo, but I'm not in the sudo group.
[19:25] <marathon> how can I read from abstract classes into main and print the information stored in the arrays in abstract classes using inheritance?
[19:25] <HaPK_PerCar> I have a problem with Zsnes... When I try to run it it says that it can't find the libao.so.2 library... I'm using maverick 64 bits
[19:25] <abstrakt> um, there is no exempt_group setting in my /etc/sudoers file at the moment
[19:25] <magicianlord> is mobile broadband worth buying for $75 usb stick and then $40 unliminted a month for ubuntu?
[19:25] <abstrakt> FrozenFire, so "if you have exempt_group" or some such, yes probably what you said is true
[19:26] <FreakyCheeseMan> >marathon Um, traditionally you shouldn't *have* and information in abstract classes. Or am I missing something?
[19:26] <Guest21222> Can someone please private message me I really need some emergency help
[19:26] <shane4ubuntu> anyone know where I could find logs about cups?
[19:26] <marathon> if anyone can help me fix a JAVA error pm me at binarymachina on AIM
[19:26] <GringoStar> I resized my partitions with gparted and now it can't boot anymore I got grub rescue as result but using the live cd I still have access to the files on both partition. How can I fix it?
[19:26] <BigC_> Guest21222 | !ask
[19:26] <FrozenFire> marathon, There's a Java channel on Freenode, I'm sure
[19:26] <shane4ubuntu> Guest21222: just ask here, and if someone knows they will help, it is best to ask in the main room
[19:26] <marathon> i looked for it
[19:26] <marathon> couldn't find it
[19:27] <FrozenFire> marathon, ##java
[19:27] <WolfDogDesigns> Hey guys, hows ubuntu coming on with read/write on ntfs these days?
[19:27] <shane4ubuntu> BigC_:  I think you got that command backwards, Command | nick. :)
[19:27] <Guest21222> I am running ubuntu live from usb, I can see all my files from windows.  When I try to boot it says missing file biosinfo.inf and i just get a black screen
[19:27] <FrozenFire> WolfDogDesigns, So far as I know, it's fairly stable.
[19:27] <FreakyCheeseMan> Um. Am I visible? It was giving me some trouble registering and there was something about too much spam- I'm not in read-only, am I?
[19:27] <FrozenFire> WolfDogDesigns, That's part of FUSE, iirc.
[19:27] <Dr_Willis> FreakyCheeseMan:  No. :)
[19:28] <BigC_> oops, my bad shane4ubuntu
[19:28] <FreakyCheeseMan> Well, that's good news, at least.
[19:28] <Dr_Willis> !ntfs-3g | FreakyCheeseMan
[19:28] <HaPK_PerCar> I have a problem with Zsnes... When I try to run it it says that it can't find the libao.so.2 library... I'm using maverick 64 bits
[19:28] <shane4ubuntu> BigC_: no prob, just wanted to let you know for future reference.
[19:28] <WolfDogDesigns> FrozenFire, hmmm, so having an often used ntfs external harddrive is okay nowdays?
[19:28] <Dr_Willis> FreakyCheeseMan:  ntfs support has gotten pretty much  as good as its ever going to get.
[19:28] <Dr_Willis> HaPK_PerCar:  as far as i know zsnes is 32bit ONLY...
[19:28] <Dr_Willis> HaPK_PerCar:  theres other snes emulators out that are 64 bit compat
[19:29] <Guest21222> Shane any suggestions
[19:30] <FrozenFire> WolfDogDesigns, Yeah, I think the only unstable stuff is the rarely-used specialized aspects of NTFS.
[19:30] <WolfDogDesigns> FrozenFire, cause isnt there a 4 gig file limit on vfat?
[19:30] <GringoStar> WolfDogDesigns I use it everydays without problem
