pedro3005fatharrahman, I would advise you to ping people by using "nick:" or "nick," instead of "<nick>", because that way it looks like you're quoting something they said01:05

MrAnthropehey guys I'm streaming videos on my network to my PS3 using PS3 Media Server. It was working fine and then my PS3 told me I needed to update it. So I did. Now PS3 Media Server is saying my PS3 is an unknown renderer. It still works but it gives me an error. How can I check if PS3 Media Server has an update to fix this?07:50
MrAnthropesudo apt-get update pms?07:51
MrAnthropeThe program's website/forums doesn't have anything on it about this but the PS3 just updated yesterday so it may even be too soon to check.07:53

ZeDeunHi folks!11:49
ZeDeunI got a problem with usb devices and need  help11:50
ZeDeunIf I connect a comon usb mass storage, say an external hard drive, everything oges well. Now, connecting my Androïd phone or Archos 504, they just does not appear as a device and I don't get any messages in dmesg.. What can I do with that ?11:52
philinuxZeDeun: plug it in and see if lsusb shows the device (thats LSUSB) but lower case11:54
ZeDeunBus 005 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0001 Linux Foundation 1.1 root hub Bus 004 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0001 Linux Foundation 1.1 root hub Bus 003 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0001 Linux Foundation 1.1 root hub Bus 002 Device 002: ID 046d:c501 Logitech, Inc.

ZeDeunthis is what I get... nothing about the devices (?)11:57
ZeDeunBy the way, how can I configure this channel into Quassel ?11:59
philinuxQuassel - no idea. Does the device/phone show up in places?12:01
ZeDeunWhat do you mean by 2show up in places" if connected to other computers ?12:03
philinuxI plug in my phone, palm pre, I click Places and it's there.12:04
ZeDeunOk. Well no none of these devices apears nowear in the system12:06
philinuxTry a reboot12:12
ZeDeunWell I just did somthing strange : Disconnetcted the phone, plug it onto the macbook, it worked. Plñug again onto kubuntu computer... work fine12:12
ZeDeunBut the Archos still make a pb. I did rebot several times. This problem apeared weeks ago.12:13
ZeDeunIt rised up first with the Archos. It is only since yesterday that I noticed the phone does not work as well. At least the phone may work, let's confirm this later. But the Archos device seems definetly not recognised anymore either on my Macbook or Kubunbtu machine.... therefore it could be Archos prob instead of computer problem.12:17
philinuxOne thing to try is booting with an older kernel.12:17
ZeDeungood idea, I had update the kernel few weeks ago as I remember. Thanks for tying to help Philinux12:21
philinuxNo probs. Hope it gets sorted.12:21
ZeDeunHope so.I will try and come back if still bad. Bye.12:22

beachbuddah<beachbuddah> here's the problem - I installed Ubuntu 10.10 about 4 weeks ago and have succeeded in messing it up significantly.17:03
beachbuddah<beachbuddah> NP - part of learning is breaking things, but I have decided to do a clean install and start from scratch (sort of)17:03
beachbuddah<beachbuddah> I'd like to save a list of the programs I have installed along with some of the settings from Tbird etc....Is it possible?17:03
beachbuddahBTW Hello all17:03
geirhabeachbuddah: dpkg --get-selections17:11
beachbuddahty geirha17:12
geirhatbird probably stores its settings under ~/.mozilla (give it a look). So copying that to your new install should retain your settings.17:12
beachbuddahand get-selections will at least make a list of the current programs I have installed?17:12
geirhabeachbuddah: Yes, run it (in a terminal) and see what it outputs.17:13
beachbuddahty17:13
geirhadpkg --set-selections should do the reverse, but I haven't tried that.17:14
beachbuddahI tried get-selections and got a list but it ony ran from the Os to the Xs17:14
beachbuddahcould my terminal have been overwhelmed by the volume?17:15
=== karthick is now known as karthick87
geirhapackages starting with y and z are few. I only have yelp, zenity, zip, zlib1g, zlib1g and zsh17:16
geirhaaptitude --disable-columns -F %p search "~i"17:17
geirhaAnother one that only outputs installed packages, nothing else.17:17
beachbuddahresponse is to provide a specific package with sudo apt-get17:19
beachbuddahmaybe I am meant to just save the data in my home folder and rebuild from scratch17:20
beachbuddahminimize - I tend to get bogged down in collecting software - like the kid in the candy store17:21
geirhaWhat's the nature of the "mess"?17:22
beachbuddahI upgraded to the -23 kernel and lost my eth0 connection17:22
beachbuddahI filed a bug report17:22
geirhaIs that wired or wireless?17:23
beachbuddahbut since then things are weird - my network manager applet currently tells me that I am not connected to the internet at all17:23
beachbuddahwired17:23
beachbuddahmy wired device is not configured and my wireless device is not connected17:23
beachbuddahmy applets in that upper taskbar consistently rearrange themselves17:24
beachbuddahmy firefox has become Namoroka - I seem to be installing the nightly builds17:25
beachbuddahThunderbird the same - it is now Shredder17:25
beachbuddahmy sound is intermittent17:25
beachbuddahsometimes it plays thru my laptop speakers and sometimes through my external soundcard to the ext. sound system17:25
beachbuddahthe network manager applet sometimes is in the taskbar and sometimes not17:26
beachbuddahwhen I run alt-F2 nm-applet it just shakes up the other applet icons and doesn't show17:26
beachbuddahthat's all I've discovered so far17:27
beachbuddahOh and that's having reverted back to the -22 kernel17:27
beachbuddahthink it;s time for a reinstall?17:27
beachbuddah:)17:27
