[00:01] <kcorcoran> am i looking for the word 'fgrun' in this output?
[00:01] <kcorcoran> cjdevlin: am i looking for the word 'fgrun' in this output?
[00:02] <cjdevlin> kcorcoran: yes. also look for any fgrun install directories (i don't know what they are)
[00:02] <glitchd> can anyone give me steps to figure out why my mic isnt working in ubuntu 10.04??
[00:03] <kcorcoran> cjdevlin:  i don't see any, the word or directories.  i think you're correct though..when i originally installed this i used synaptic and it installed it somewhere else.  but, for some reason it is not listed in synaptic for me to uninstall.
[00:04] <goltoof_> glitchd:  check this oiut if you haven't already  https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting
[00:04] <goltoof_> glitchd:   it discusses mic troubleshooting towards the end
[00:04] <cjdevlin> kcorcoran: you installed from source most recently, correct?
[00:04] <twinshock> cjdevlin, does i hve to upgrade the package vlc
[00:04] <kcorcoran> yes
[00:04] <kcorcoran> cjdevlin:  yes.
[00:05] <cjdevlin> twinshock: if there is an upgrade. yes. from what i can tell, you don't have it installed at all. sudo apt-get install vlc
[00:05] <goltoof_> glitchd:  that's all i got, i'm off.. good luck
[00:05] <lobito> when I decrypt a file with seahorse, it prompts for password only once, then I try it again and it doesnt prompt, the password is cached, how can I do to set the timeout to 0 ?? please help
[00:05] <cjdevlin> kcorcoran: are you trying to run from command line or gui?
[00:05] <glitchd> goltoof_, thx
[00:06] <twinshock> cjdevlin, i use vlc 2 play other media files but yes there exist few upgrades for vlc package
[00:06] <kcorcoran> i have tried both...if i browse to the ~/home/fgfs/fgrun/bin/ and double click the fgrun application or via terminal, i get the same results
[00:06] <kcorcoran> cjdevlin: i have tried both...if i browse to the ~/home/fgfs/fgrun/bin/ and double click the fgrun application or via terminal, i get the same results
[00:06] <cjdevlin> twinshock: then i would recommend upgrading
[00:07] <twinshock> cjdevlin, well upgrades are upto 256 mb
[00:07] <lobito> Im using ubuntu 10.10, I want seahorse to set the timeout cache to 0 or something like that so when I decrypt a file I want seahorse to ALWAYS ask me for the password
[00:07] <cjdevlin> kcorcoran: sudo ldconfig
[00:07] <twinshock> sry cjdevlin, well upgrades are upto 80 mb and 256 extra packages to be installed
[00:08] <kcorcoran> cjdevlin: it prompted for my password; i entered it, then it just returned to and $
[00:08] <gdbla> is there any way to use the natty repository if i'm on maverick?
[00:09] <bastidrazor> gdbla: if you want to break things
[00:09] <twinshock> cjdevlin, thanks for ur support..........
[00:09] <cjdevlin> kcorcoran: that was all it was supposed to do. from your home directory type: /home/fgfs/fgrun/bin/whatever the command is
[00:09] <nit-wit> gdbla, why do you need to
[00:09] <gdbla> bastidrazor: i just wanted an easier way to install the latest version of Qt
[00:09] <cjdevlin> twinshock: sorry couldn't work it out
[00:09] <celestial> hi everyone i need a little help setting up alsa i have a asus g73jh and i cant get the integrated sub to work or an option for it to show up any help will be appriciated
[00:10] <lobito> please help with seahorse, I dont want him to cache my passwords when I decrypt files
[00:10] <bastidrazor> gdbla: probably finding a ppa would be best.
[00:10] <kcorcoran> cjdevlin:  no such file or directory?
[00:11] <kcorcoran> cjdevlin: i know thats the path, i am looking at it in the gui
[00:11] <kcorcoran> cjdevlin:  i tried again with ~/ instead of typing out /home
[00:12] <kcorcoran> cjdevlin: this time it launched, however same error
[00:12] <twinshock> cjdevlin,its k ,u helped me a lot,bye..........
[00:12] <gdbla> bastidrazor: the first result for a ppa  that comes up is a launchpad link, but it still separates out the lower version for maverick and the recent one for natty
[00:12] <cjdevlin> kcororan: as much as i hate to say it, i'd say try a restart.
[00:13] <mac> when I start ubuntu it wont go into grun

[00:14] <gdbla> i guess i'll just try to install the package from there anywyas
[00:15] <mac> what do you type
[00:15] <mac> just grml??
[00:15] <itaylor57> gdbla: you will have to use the maverick ppa
[00:15] <Tyan> no... grml was the name of the live-cd distro I used

[00:16] <itaylor57> gdbla: a package is tied to the kernel
[00:16] <gdbla> itaylor57: ic, thanks
[00:17] <itaylor57> mac: sudo apt-install grub
[00:17] <Tyan> I mounted the boot partition from there, don't remember which commands I used then, but the grub FAQ should be able to help you with that
[00:17] <gdbla> is the alpha of natty too buggy to try?  anyone on it?
[00:17] <LADmaticCA> anybody got revenge of the titans running on 64bit ubuntu?

[00:23] <bastidrazor> Nubulis: how did you install it? kubuntu-desktop?
[00:24] <cjdevlin> kcorcoran: what is the name of the binary?
[00:24] <tanath> mac, when you run 'sudo update-grub' it should add windows to the menu list
[00:24] <Nubulis> bastidrazor: sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop
[00:24] <tanath> mac, grub doesn't delete OSes
[00:24] <mac> tanath: it says command not found

[00:26] <mac> I dont even know why it did this when I tolf it to install to a usb
[00:26] <mac> it wasn't supposed to effect the hd
[00:26] <cjdevlin> kcorcoran: what is the command that starts it?
[00:26] <oneliner> am hoping the usb isnt still plugged in
[00:26] <Nubulis> mac: what exactly is the probs?

[00:32] <Pici> Markussss: We do not support Mint here.
[00:33] <Nubulis> been meaning to try it

[00:33] <skullboy> when i restart all my files are gone
[00:33] <Markussss> Thanks!
[00:33] <Nubulis> mac: try    sudo update-grub
[00:33] <tanath> mac, use the answer on this page: http://en.kioskea.net/forum/affich-25667-dual-boot-ubuntu-vista-grub-error-21
[00:33] <skullboy> when i restart all my files are gone
[00:34] <tanath> mac, might need to install grub first if you haven't already
[00:34] <UnholyTerror> skullboy, what do you mean?
[00:34] <mac> Nubulis: grub-probe: error: cannot find a device for /.
[00:34] <mac> tanath: yes, thats proabably all
[00:34] <skullboy> everything but what came with the os is gone
[00:34] <Goddard> i need to downgrade php to 5.2 anyone know the safest way in ubuntu 10.10
[00:35] <mac> tanath: because nothing was supposed to be installed on the hd
[00:35] <myrk> Is ubuntu 11.04 full of bugs? Is it possible to do anything efficiently on it?
[00:35] <mac> it was installed on the usb
[00:35] <UnholyTerror> skullboy, what are you running?
[00:35] <skullboy> ubuntu 10.04
[00:35] <OerH> skullboy on live-cd or live-usb ?
[00:35] <UnholyTerror> skullboy, is it the livecd?
[00:36] <sogepp> my ubuntu won't shutdown or reboot, it stuck on black page, with no error mesaage
[00:36] <skullboy> no i installed off of a live onto my hdd harddrive
[00:36] <myrk> Anyone?
[00:36] <UnholyTerror> skullboy, so what is it you are trying to save?
[00:37] <UnholyTerror> myrk, what date is it today?
[00:37] <skullboy> UnholyTerror, apps and files
[00:37] <Nubulis> mac: try this http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=224351
[00:37] <UnholyTerror> skullboy, please give an example...
[00:37] <oneliner> is there a tracker page for an ubuntu torrent?
[00:37] <Texas> hello room does anyone use firestarter?
[00:37] <greezmunkey> 1Year early...
[00:37] <myrk> @unholyterror, it's 12-15-10, why?
[00:37] <tanath> mac, (if you still get command not found. run 'sudo apt-get install grub2')
[00:38] <mac> tanath: if I install grub it wont effect the existing windows right?
[00:38] <tanath> mac, you're on livedisc, no?
[00:38] <mac> if I do this
[00:38] <UnholyTerror> myrk, so it's not 2011 yet then... it' s not ready.
[00:38] <Nubulis> and if that don't help there's a million forums
[00:38] <mac> root (hd?,?)
[00:38] <mac> yes tanath
[00:38] <tanath> mac, you'd be temporarily installing the program on your livedisc session
[00:38] <skullboy> UnholyTerror, like when i go to download xchat it is not installed when i reboot i download a picture its not there when i reboot i download a work doc i think you get the idea
[00:39] <Texas> does anyone use clam or have any knowledge on the clam software???
[00:39] <myrk> @unholyterror, yes, but I was wondering if anyone had tried it to see if it has many bugs
[00:39] <tanath> mac, it's when you run it to do things that it can affect the hard drive. but it goes to the MBR so you can choose what OS to boot
[00:39] <jrib> Texas: best to just ask the channel your actual question (on a single line)
[00:39] <Nubulis> mac: worst case scenario, you have to copy all files from hard disk to something else and start from scratchs
[00:39] <Nubulis> scratch
[00:39] <skullboy> UnholyTerror, like when i go to download xchat it is not installed when i reboot i download a picture its not there when i reboot i download a work doc i think you get the idea
[00:40] <mac> if I install grub, will it show windows after?
[00:40] <UnholyTerror> skullboy, what errors are you seeing when you tried to install xchat, and how did you install it?
[00:40] <mac> or will it only show ubutnu
[00:40] <tanath> mac, that ubuntuforums thread Nubulis linked you is basically a more detailed guide for the answer i linked you to last
[00:40] <sogepp> my ubuntu won't shutdown or reboot, it stuck on black page, with no error mesaage, what should i do to see the problem
[00:40] <skullboy> unholyterror, i dont get errors its just not present when i reboot
[00:40] <mac> ya I know
[00:40] <mac> ok ill try iy
[00:41] <Texas> ok...my question is how reliable is it,because i installed avast and when i restarted my pc it locked the pc so i had to reinstall the os
[00:41] <greezmunkey> sogepp: press Ctrl+Atl+F2, what happens?
[00:41] <tanath> mac, no. after you USE grub you should be able to choose windows again. use one of the guides you've been linked
[00:41] <UnholyTerror> skullboy, it's not under Applications->Internet?
[00:41] <mac> ok tanath
[00:41] <Nubulis> mac: if bootloader is functioning correctly it will show you every os you have on your primary hard disk and give you the option to boot to the one you choose:::: Hence BOOTLOADER
[00:41] <mac> tanath: can this all be done on the livecd?
[00:41] <sogepp> greezmunkey : nothing, just moving on terminal right ???
[00:41] <tanath> mac, yep
[00:42] <skullboy> unholyterror, well it is now cause i installed there but if i restart it wont be or any of my work docs
[00:42] <tanath> mac, the original link i gave you explained things
[00:42] <lucasreborn> good nite
[00:42] <greezmunkey> sogepp: yeah, to see if there is another tty available. So it didn't do anything?
[00:42] <lucasreborn> someone can help me with my ubuntu server?
[00:42] <tanath> mac, you run 'sudo update-grub' after you've booted into linux to properly update the grub menu
[00:42] <mac> ok well tanath I just went find /boot/grub/stage1
[00:42] <sogepp> yep, it's working normal
[00:42] <Scarra3> Sup
[00:42] <Texas> thanks anyways
[00:42] <mac> and it says find: `/boot/grub/stage1': No such file or directory
[00:42] <greezmunkey> sogepp: Oh, so you have a login prompt?
[00:43] <sogepp> yep
[00:43] <Nubulis> tanath: you know anything about kde, and not having the option to boot to it from the login screen after an install?
[00:43] <lucasreborn> my server freezes networking, don't reply to pings, it's not acessible at all at random times, i fix doing a networking restart
[00:43] <UnholyTerror> skullboy, that doesn't make sense... Are you sure you aren't running from the livecd by accident? you did remove the cd, right?
[00:43] <greezmunkey> sogepp: Do you want to restart type sudo shutdown -r 0, and supply your password when it asks.
[00:43] <lucasreborn> sometimes appear a messagem: error in task cp, blocked for 120 seconds.
[00:44] <mac> ok Im going to try and restart
[00:44] <RayTracer> chkconfig works much better if one adds "# chkconfig: 2345 99 01\n# description: upstart-converted-initscript" to the top.
[00:44] <tanath> mac, try 'find /grub/stage1'
[00:44] <mac> brb
[00:44] <mac> tanath: ok
[00:44] <skullboy> unholyterror, yea and all my other devices but it is like i am
[00:44] <sogepp> yes. and i've done it many times, just keep stuck on black page, what should i do
[00:44] <RayTracer> chkconfig works much better if one adds "# chkconfig: 2345 99 01\n# description: upstart-converted-initscript" to the top of /lib/init/upstart-job.
[00:44] <mac> bash: find /grub/stage1: No such file or directory
[00:44] <greezmunkey> sogepp: Using the method I just provided to you?
[00:44] <stephen__> What's the most basic channel for Ubuntu? I don't wanna be holding you guys up.
[00:45] <tanath> Nubulis, i know a bit about kde... a while back i used to have gnome and kde... there's kdm from kde and gdm, you have to choose which one to use for login screen...
[00:45] <lucasreborn> stephen: this is the channel
[00:45] <bibic682> easy way to set up philips saa7130 tv card
[00:45] <sogepp> ok, and then..???
[00:45] <tanath> Nubulis, i think kdm may not present the choice (or possibly it was the other way around)
[00:45] <bubbalooo> stephen__, #ubuntu-beginners
[00:46] <greezmunkey> sogepp: If you issue that command, and then give it the password when it asks, the system should shutdown and then restart.
[00:46] <stephen__> so, I just say that?
[00:46] <stephen__> #ubuntu-beginners
[00:46] <tanath> Nubulis, i think you need to use gdm to have the option for which to log into. or maybe they just need proper configuration and i don't know how to configure kdm to offer the choice
[00:46] <bubbalooo> stephen__, whats the problem?
[00:46] <lucasreborn> join
[00:46] <bubbalooo> stephen__, #ubuntu-beginners is just a channel
[00:47] <Nubulis> tanath: i installed kubuntu using sudo, everything seemed to go as normal but I don't have the option of kdesktop
[00:47] <UnholyTerror> skullboy, go to System Monitor
[00:47] <sogepp> greezmunkey : i've done that few times, and not working, it would stop on black page, what should ido to know what's worng on it??
[00:47] <Nubulis> was running kde on ubuntu 10.04 but did a clean install of 10.10 and now me k don't work
[00:47] <skullboy> unholyterror, ok now what
[00:47] <lucasreborn> someone with server knowledge available?
[00:48] <greezmunkey> sogepp: who knows? Has this computer operated properly in the past with Ubuntu on it?
[00:48] <skullboy> unholyterror, ok now what
[00:49] <tanath> Nubulis, 'sudo dpkg-reconfigure gdm' to set gdm default. then log out and see if you have the ability to choose
[00:49] <sogepp> greezmunkey : mm, what'd you mena with properly ??? i just didn't boot my ubuntu for few weeks, and suddenly the problem comes up
[00:50] <greezmunkey> sogepp: I'm just looking for more information. So the PC has been off for the last two weeks, but before that you had no problems?
[00:50] <sogepp> yep greezmunkey
[00:51] <skullboy> unholyterror, ok now what
[00:51] <bibic682> anyone can help....setting up philips 7130 tv card
[00:51] <Nubulis> tanath: will try that. thanks
[00:51] <skullboy> unholyterror,
[00:52] <skullboy> unholyterror, my filesystem appers to be there but it is not
[00:53] <UnholyTerror> skullboy, what fs does it say?
[00:53] <greezmunkey> sogepp: If the computer is not responding to a shutdown, it could be just about anything, but most likely an issue with the motherboard. I would suggest shutting it off, opening it up, and then refresh all of the motherboard connections. Unplug the wires one at a time, and plug them back in as you go. Power up once done, and see if it helps.

[00:56] <skullboy> unholyterror, there was an error creating the child process for this terminal
[00:56] <greezmunkey> sogepp: maybe, good luck
[00:56] <Toxicsgz> Trying to install 10.10 on pentium 4 system, it will not boot from usb, created a CD and ran installer but it will not recongnize my HD  to install to.
[00:57] <Amtrask> Hello, what is the package I need to install on 10.04 to have all the restricted formats? mp3 and dvds and aac, etc etc.
[00:57] <sogepp> he he, thxs anyway greezmunkey
[00:57] <UnholyTerror> skullboy, hold on...
[00:57] <chaospsychex> jimcooncat let me explain
[00:57] <aeon-ltd> !restricted
[00:57] <chaospsychex> jimcooncat before i installed ubuntu i had 2 partitions. one was my main, the other was a recovery partition
[00:57] <aeon-ltd> Amtrask: see above
[00:58] <Amtrask> Thank you aeon-ltd
[00:58] <chaospsychex> jimcooncat i installed ubuntu via a windows installer and it modified the main partition to install linux on
[00:58] <chaospsychex> i still have the recovery partition,i want to make it usable for ubuntu
[00:58] <Toxicsgz> Sorry have to reboot.
[00:58] <skullboy> unholyterror, what should i do
[00:58] <Amtrask> For the record I prefer the free formats but I am doing an OEM install and I just want the thing to "work" for the guy used to WIndows
[00:59] <jimcooncat> chaospsychex, if you installed with wubi, you have a file on your NTFS that holds your Ubuntu filesystem
[00:59] <chaospsychex> go on.....
[00:59] <jimcooncat> so you have NTFS, and a recovery partition. You don't need to recover Windows again?
[01:00] <UnholyTerror> skullboy, try CTRL-ALT-F2... your screen should go black and display a login. login and type 'mount'. press CTRL-ALT-F7 to get back to desktop. tell us what mount says about sda2 (ro or rw).
[01:00] <chaospsychex> no, i'm moving away from windows
[01:00] <edbian> chaospsychex, how's the move going?
[01:01] <chaospsychex> what do you mean edbian
[01:01] <jimcooncat> chaospsychex, I would suggest removing the recovery partition, and moving your Ubuntu off from wubi and onto the partition. This is not easy, but would be worthwhile
[01:01] <digitalfiz> any of you know how to detach from a "screen" once you start an app in it?
[01:01] <chaospsychex> how do i do that
[01:01] <edbian> chaospsychex, I am eager to help but I don't see anybody with problems I can help.
[01:01] <Pici> digitalfiz: ^a d
[01:01] <forteller> I need to change the permission of a whole lot of files and folders (all of which are found in one and the same folder) to whatever permission is the normal one in Ubuntu. Could someone please point me in the right direction?
[01:01] <digitalfiz> ty
[01:01] <neurox> Ctrl+A+d
[01:01] <edbian> forteller, I can help!
[01:01] <chaospsychex> edbian i am trying to move ubuntu off wubi onto another partition
[01:01] <edbian> forteller, Where are these files?
[01:02] <edbian> chaospsychex, That's a multi-step process.  Especially if you have only one hdd.
[01:02] <mac> im trying to follow the instructions but the commands are not working
[01:02] <chaospsychex> edbian ok, how can i do it
[01:02] <edbian> chaospsychex, Do you have a lot of data on your wubi install?
[01:03] <jimcooncat> chaospsychex, or just have apt make you a list of the packages you've installed, save it in your /home. back off your /home, burn an Ubuntu CD, and restart from scratch.
[01:03] <tanath> forteller, if it's stuff in your home folder you can use 'sudo chown [usernamehere] -R /home/[usernamehere]'
[01:03] <forteller> hi, edbian. Nice to see you again! :) They're all on my second internal HDD: /media/Terra/Backups/clean-install141210
[01:03] <chaospsychex> edbian no,i just installed a week ago
[01:03] <edbian> forteller, PM me?
[01:03] <chaospsychex> can i pm you edbian?
[01:03] <edbian> chaospsychex, yes
[01:04] <tanath> nubulis: found it. go to Sys > Admin > Login screen > show screen for choosing, and Select [user defined session] as default
[01:04] <mac> Nubulis: what key do you type to get into the emergency grub
[01:04] <tanath> Nubulis, that should do the trick
[01:04] <jimcooncat> chaospsychex, I'm suggesting this because I lost an Ubuntu install on this laptop -- it was a wubi install. Had a glitch that ruined my NTFS partition.
[01:04] <tanath> mac, 'emergency grub' sounds like you mean the 'recovery mode' option in grub menu. just choose that
[01:05] <mac> tanath: does work
[01:05] <mac> It doesn;pt do anything
[01:05] <mac> no options
[01:05] <mac> it just says error 21
[01:05] <mac> no keys work
[01:05] <jimcooncat> mac, you might have to fix it with a livecd
[01:05] <lucasreborn> Amtrask it's ubuntu restricted extras, try to find by the app manager
[01:06] <mac> jimcooncat: yes
[01:06] <Nubulis> thanks again tanath. will try that one.
[01:06] <tanath> jimcooncat, he's supposed to be doing that already
[01:06] <mac> jimcooncat: I am on a live cd right now
[01:06] <tanath> :P
[01:06] <Nubulis> mac:???
[01:06] <mac> Nubulis: yes
[01:07] <Nubulis> mac: oh i think esc maybe
[01:07] <jimcooncat> I'm looking for a screen magnifier, and orca's not friendly for me. Any others? aptitude search magn didn't show any
[01:07] <Nubulis> mac: or alt f1
[01:07] <Nubulis> lets try again shall we
[01:07] <mac> Nubulis: and then update the grub from there?
[01:08] <Amtrask> lucasreborn thank you!
[01:08] <Nubulis> mac: u still getting that error 21 thing?
[01:08] <mac> Nubulis: yes
[01:08] <mac> but im on live mode right now
[01:09]  * jimcooncat says, mac needs a grub rescue!
[01:09] <Guest81410> @seek columbus card
[01:09] <mac> jimcooncat: ya probably
[01:09] <lucasreborn> forteller i think you can use chmod, chroot and chown with -r parameter (recursively)
[01:10] <Guest81410> @seek orson card columbus
[01:10] <lucasreborn> mac, you need to hold shift when booting to see the grub menu
[01:11] <mac> lucasreborn: ok
[01:11] <mac> lucasreborn: and then what do you suggest I do
[01:11] <tanath> lucasreborn, shouldn't need chroot
[01:12] <tanath> lucasreborn, and it's -R not -r
[01:12] <lucasreborn> yeah, it's -R
[01:12] <lucasreborn> sorry for mispelling
[01:12] <lucasreborn> mac, i don't read all your case
[01:12] <tanath> lucasreborn, 'tis an easy typo :P
[01:12] <mac> ok brb
[01:13] <Nubulis> mac: this sounds like the problem your having try it http://www.pendrivelinux.com/grub-error-21-after-full-install-to-usb-hard-drive/
[01:13] <Toxicsgz> How do I update to 10.10 from 10.4?
[01:13] <lucasreborn> mac, you have a non-booting system with error 21 in grub, that's it?
[01:13] <tanath> Toxicsgz, run update manager
[01:13] <lucasreborn> toxicsgz: with update manager
[01:13] <Toxicsgz> tanath it does not appear as an update?
[01:13] <tanath> Toxicsgz, System > Admin > Update manager
[01:14] <tanath> Toxicsgz, each release has it's own repos and updates
[01:14] <Toxicsgz> tanath yes, there is no 10.10 update available there.
[01:14] <tanath> Toxicsgz, run 'sudo update-manager -c' in terminal
[01:14] <lucasreborn> PLEASE HELP WITH UBUNTU SERVER
[01:15] <lucasreborn> i'm desperate
[01:15] <Spark> hi
[01:15] <Spark> how do i boot up and get a root prompt to fix this system
[01:15] <Spark> init=/bin/bash just makes it reboot for some reason
[01:15] <Spark> and maintanance mode hangs at mountall
[01:15] <Spark> and doesn't provide me with a root prompt
[01:15] <lucasreborn> Spark, you can use a live CD or recovery mode on grub by holding shift when the system initializes
[01:16] <daishadar> how do i restore the default config file for a file in /etc?  do i have to apt-get remove/install it again, or is there another way?
[01:16] <Spark> what happened to init=
[01:16] <sprung> I want to connect to a second VPN and nm-applet has the second VPN greyed out so i can't select it. Why won't it let me connect to a second VPN?
[01:17] <Spark> holding down shift doesn't do anything and the explicit 'recovery mode' options in grub just boot it without 'quiet'
[01:17] <Flannel> daishadar: You could just snag the deb, open it as an archive, and copy the file out of it
[01:17] <Toxicsgz> tananth still not there?
[01:17] <Spark> holding down shift doesn't do anything and the explicit 'recovery mode' options in grub just boot it without 'quiet'
[01:17] <Spark> argh ffs
[01:17] <daishadar> Flannel:  oh right, thanks :)
[01:17] <Spark> forgotten how to type on old laptop keyboard
[01:17] <lucasreborn> holding shift gives you the grub menu that you can select recovery mode
[01:17] <Spark> ah i have the menu on by default
[01:17] <Spark> reovery mode is useless though
[01:17] <Spark> i think it is the initrd that is buggy
[01:17] <conan> 你们会说中文吗？
[01:18] <Spark> maybe that is too early for recovery mode#
[01:18] <lucasreborn> Spark then use a live cd
[01:18] <Spark> it's talking about mount /lib/init/rw
[01:18] <Spark> sigh
[01:18] <maco> !cn | conan
[01:18] <tanath> Toxicsgz, that's odd
[01:18] <Spark> i've had some pretty bad dist-upgrade experiences with ubuntu before but nothing that needed a live cd
[01:18] <Toxicsgz> Indeed it is tanath
[01:18] <Spark> i don't even know how to fix it yet
[01:19] <lucasreborn> then we found the cause of the problem
[01:19] <tanath> Toxicsgz, you don't see notice and button at top when it comes up?
[01:19] <tanath> Toxicsgz, you did include -c right?
[01:20] <Toxicsgz> tanath I have tried installing from usb but my ole system wont boot from it, I have burned a CD and can run 10.10 from it and can run the installer but I cannot allocate drive space, i get an error "No root file system". There is no HD in the partition menu. Yes I did use -c.
[01:20] <mac> ook
[01:21] <Spark> ah, this guy had the same problem https://answers.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/util-linux/+question/131600
[01:21] <mac> all keys failed
[01:21] <mac> it would not go into grub
[01:21] <lucasreborn> where is the server specific help?
[01:21] <Spark> i don't see how this can be blamed on teh user though
[01:21] <mac> shift failed
[01:22] <mac> it says grub loading, please wait.... error 21
[01:22] <forteller> tanath, lucasreborn: Thanks a lot both of you! :)
[01:22] <lucasreborn> where is the server specific help?
[01:23] <Toxicsgz> tanath I am rebooting, be back soon.
[01:24] <craigbass1976> I'm trying to run GUI apps over ssh.  Everything works with ssh -X -C ipaddy for most things, but when I start firefox, it fires up a local version, or at least it's looking at my own localhost, not the one on the box I'm logged into.
[01:25] <edbian> craigbass1976, There's some stupid flag for firefox "firefox --no-remote" or somethin' like that
[01:25] <craigbass1976> edbian, you're kidding me...
[01:26] <Spark> is init=/bin/bash still meant to work
[01:26] <mac> does anyone know a solution to this problem
[01:26] <mac> the errror 21 one
[01:26] <edbian> craigbass1976, Nope.  We're firefox let's do ssh X forwarding different!  Why you ask?  Who cares!!
[01:26] <Toxicsgz> tanath I am back.
[01:26] <Spark> or is it like ctrl+alt+backspace, removed even though it's extremely useful
[01:26] <Toxicsgz> Still no update available.
[01:26] <tanath> Toxicsgz, did you install windows or another os after?
[01:26] <tanath> Toxicsgz, or start to?  or botch an install?
[01:26] <Toxicsgz> No, only has 10.4
[01:27] <mac> lucasreborn: shift did not work
[01:27] <nsd> How can I run executable files on a FAT formatted partition that's in my /etc/fstab? I know there's the showexec option which sets the executable bit for files ending in .bat or .exe, but what about just normal files? These are the flags I'm currently using: auto,nodev,nosuid,rw,uid=1000,gid=1000, dmask=0077,flush,shortname=mixed,user
[01:27] <tanath> Toxicsgz, any trouble booting? try reinstalling grub
[01:27] <craigbass1976> edbian, I'm installing epiphany browser on that box.  Know of any issues with that before I try?
[01:27] <Goddard> i need to install php curl on 5.2 under 10.10 any help?
[01:27] <mattalexx> I'm having such a time compiling PHP with JPEG support for GD. PHP and GD are fine. It's the JPEG support that isn't working (compiles, but no JPEG support under GD in phpinfo).

[01:28] <edbian> craigbass1976, Not that I know of.
[01:28] <Toxicsgz> No trouble booting 10.4 how do I reinstall grub?
[01:28] <nsd> Goddard: is it in the Ubuntu repository?
[01:28] <Toxicsgz> @ tanath
[01:28] <tanath> !grub2
[01:28] <edbian> craigbass1976, Just call firefox with the --no-remote flag and you should be set
[01:28] <mac> it didn
[01:28] <mattalexx> Am I being blocked or something?
[01:28] <mac> t happen after instaling windows
[01:28] <Goddard> nsd: yeah i believe so but it would be an older repository
[01:28] <craigbass1976> edbian, her connection is a bit slow; I'm wondering if epiphany might be faster anyway
[01:28] <edbian> mattalexx, we can see you
[01:28] <mattalexx> thx.
[01:28] <mac> it happened after installing suse to a usb
[01:28] <edbian> craigbass1976, Worth a shot
[01:29] <Toxicsgz> tanath I am quite new to Linux.
[01:29] <tanath> mattalexx, see what ubottu said
[01:29] <edbian> Toxicsgz, Isn't everybody?
[01:29] <Chilaquiles> hey guys how can I install eclipse helios in ubuntu?
[01:29] <craigbass1976> edbian, of course, elinks would be best, but I need to see stuff besides test
[01:29] <edbian> craigbass1976, mhmmm
[01:29] <edbian> :)
[01:29] <lucasreborn> !server
[01:29] <nsd> Goddard: You can go to the Ubuntu package repository and attempt to download the older version (for a previous version of Ubuntu), but I can't guarantee that it'd work. The better thing to do (if it's not in the repos) would be to build it from source
[01:30] <Chilaquiles> I just downloaded eclipse helios and unziped but it has a file that when I tried to execute it it says that the JRE is not available
[01:30] <mattalexx> tanath, What did the bot say? About GRUB?
[01:30] <nsd> Chilaquiles: sounds like you'll have to install a JRE (Java Runtime Environment) then, though I would think that one should already be installed
[01:30] <tanath> mattalexx, no, about flooding and pastebin
[01:30] <hanasaki> when I hit the backspace/del in a gnome terminal and there is no more text on the line the whole gui screen dims down dark...  what can cause that?
[01:30] <tanath> mattalexx, you were suppressed breifly
[01:31] <Spark> hanasaki: could be some sort of visual bell (but broken)
[01:31] <mac> its very frusturating on why it keeps saying error 21 at startup
[01:31] <Chilaquiles> hey nsd do you think Open JDK Java 6 runtime would work?
[01:31] <mac> no keys appear to be functioal
[01:31] <Toxicsgz> tanath checked grub install version, GNU GRUB 0.97
[01:31] <hanasaki> that's what I was thinking... if I do ^f in firefox and type something that cannot be found on the page the same happens.. .and if I bakcspace in the locked screensaver too...
[01:32] <craigbass1976> edbian, that seems to hose my local box's X session.  Got firefox working.  Thanks
[01:32] <hanasaki> Spark what controls the visual bell?
[01:32] <tanath> Toxicsgz, recommend removing it for grub2
[01:32] <itaylor57> Chilaquiles: where did you get the download from?
[01:32] <hanasaki> Spark anyone>? heard of this in 10.10 ?
[01:32] <Chilaquiles> eclipse.org
[01:32] <Goddard> nsd: it should just be a dll file and a exstension i think not sure though
[01:32] <edbian> craigbass1976, Excellent :)
[01:32] <nsd> Chilaquiles: It should work fine... I think you can use that or the (proprietary?) Oracle one, but I don't know if that's in the repos. I'd say to give OpenJDK a try
[01:32] <mattalexx> tanath, Yes, I really thought that configure command was shorter in my clipboard. Sorry to flood, really.
[01:32] <Chilaquiles> ok
[01:32] <UnholyTerror> mac, http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-875952.html
[01:32] <tanath> mattalexx, just explaining. you asked if we could see you
[01:33] <tanath> mattalexx, and you didn't seem to know better than to flood
[01:33] <nsd> Goddard: There are no .dll's in Linux. Have you ever tried installing something from source before?
[01:33] <Goddard> nsd: i meant so
[01:33] <mac> UnholyTerror: the commands dont work
[01:33] <nsd> Goddard: oh ok lol
[01:34] <mac> UnholyTerror: they keep comming back with errors
[01:34] <nsd> Goddard: There may be a .deb package on the PHP site, I don't know
[01:34] <UnholyTerror> mac, #grub
[01:34] <mac> in terminal?
[01:34] <Chilaquiles> are the servers here in the IRC running on linux?
[01:34] <nsd> Goddard: nope, nevermind -- just source
[01:34] <edbian> Chilaquiles, Of course!  Most of the servers in the world are running linux
[01:34] <Spark> looks like aptitude fucked up
[01:34] <FloridaGuy> trying to install a new plymouth theme in ubuntu 10.10.... installing the MIB-Ubuntu  from here...   http://www.ubunturoot.com/2010/07/mib-plymouth-theme-for-ubuntu-and.html    .....   following the directions....then when i reboot...my screen is in verbose mode..just a text shutdown...and a black bootup
[01:34] <Spark> a whole bunch of packages aren't even installed
[01:34] <UnholyTerror> mac, no, another channel
[01:34] <mac> UnholyTerror: hold on I gotta get into livemode or this,
[01:35] <nsd> Goddard: Actually, you're in luck because I found the php 5 curl module in the repo. Just do sudo apt-get install php5-curl
[01:35] <Chilaquiles> edbian, but before linux? what the servers were running?
[01:35] <mac> ok
[01:35] <craigbass1976> Chilaquiles, I think there were circuit boards hooked up to hamster wheels.  Not sure what OS you call that...  :)
[01:35] <edbian> Chilaquiles, unix
[01:35] <Goddard> nsd: i get a broken package error because im running 10.10 with a older version of php 5.2 and current is 5.3
[01:35] <edbian> Chilaquiles, is my guess.
[01:36] <Chilaquiles> ok but are there any virus for linux?
[01:36] <craigbass1976> edbian, unix came out in 71-ish, yes?
[01:36] <nsd> Goddard: Ohhh ok now I see your problem. Well, as I said before you may be able to locate the package on the Ubuntu site which lets you download for any version of Ubuntu. I can check quickly for you
[01:36] <edbian> craigbass1976, oh boy.  uhh.... Wikipedia?
[01:36] <craigbass1976> Chilaquiles, worms.  I remember a big red hat one a while back
[01:36] <Chilaquiles> in that case it would make linux unstable
[01:36] <Goddard> nsd: thanks man your awesome
[01:37] <Chilaquiles> are there any virus for the last version of ubuntu though?
[01:37] <Goddard> nsd: the error http://pastebin.com/nKMh40fW
[01:38] <craigbass1976> I am curious, if anyone is paying attention, as to whether or not someone could write a virus that affects systems with sudo users.  Why couldn't it snag your password, or know when you've entered it (so that it still has ten minutes or whatever to work it's magic) to run a sudo command.
[01:38] <edbian> Chilaquiles, There are no viruses in the wild for Linux.  There are several (hundred) proof of concept viruses for linux.  They all depend on you doing something rather silly.  Viruses in linux are a controversial issue
[01:38] <edbian> craigbass1976, It cannot run without you giving it permission to run first.
[01:38] <edbian> craigbass1976, programs cannot see what other programs are doing unless they are part of the operating system
[01:38] <nsd> Goddard: That's rather strange because you should have the latest version of PHP if you've upgraded. At any rate, the version of PHP curl for Karmic is 5.2.10, so it *may* work: http://packages.ubuntu.com/karmic/php5-curl
[01:39] <gogeta> ok i got a question. buddys wife dropped laptop and broke the dc mounting bracket. it still works but likes to come undone easly. think some dubble sided tape will hold it it my machine now.
[01:39] <nsd> Goddard: Just select i386 or amd64 for whatever system you have
[01:39] <hanasaki> Spark thanks! that wsa the key word I needed.. fixed... http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-1521362.html
[01:39] <Goddard> nsd: its by choice this is my development machine
[01:39] <nsd> Goddard: ah
[01:40] <Chilaquiles> edbian, ok so from what you are saying getting a virus in a linux server would be something very rare
[01:40] <edbian> Chilaquiles, Yes.
[01:40] <edbian> Chilaquiles, near impossible if you are a good network administrator

[01:41] <Pici> edbian:  And even if you're a bad one.
[01:41] <Chilaquiles> what distribution of Linux would you recommend to have for a server?
[01:41] <Chilaquiles> edbian
[01:41] <UndiFineD> Chilaquiles, ubuntu server :)
[01:41] <FloridaGuy> anyone home
[01:41] <edbian> Chilaquiles,
[01:41] <Chilaquiles> no, seriously
[01:41] <nsd> Chilaquiles: Unix like systems (such as Linux) are inherently very secure and offer features not found in other operating systems such as Windows, although later versions of Windows are much improved with respect to security. Ubuntu is an actively maintained distribution, so I'd imagine it's good on the security front
[01:42] <edbian> Chilaquiles, :) I would recommend Debian (but I am bias)
[01:42] <Goddard> nsd: nice i didnt know you could download the packages like this
[01:42] <edbian> Pici, :)
[01:42] <nsd> Goddard: Yep, just packages.ubuntu.com
[01:42] <Chilaquiles> right edbian, but I've heard that debian is really hard to configure as a server
[01:42] <FloridaGuy> trying to install a new plymouth theme in ubuntu 10.10.... installing the MIB-Ubuntu  from here...   http://www.ubunturoot.com/2010/07/mib-plymouth-theme-for-ubuntu-and.html    .....   following the directions....then when i reboot...my screen is in verbose mode..just a text shutdown...and a black bootup
[01:43] <Chilaquiles> is very robust as a server, but very hard to configure, and you need a lot of linux knowledge and experience
[01:43] <nsd> Chilaquiles: Security is not just about how secure the distribution is: any good administrator must spend a lot of time locking down any server installation before it would be ready for deployment. Things like writing IPTables firewalls and other such configuration files...
[01:43] <Chilaquiles> is this true?
[01:43] <edbian> Chilaquiles, I disagree.  I think it's the same to configure as Ubuntu (neither one has a gui).  I say Debian because it is more stable.
[01:43] <Chilaquiles> more stable than?
[01:43] <Chilaquiles> Ubuntu?=
[01:43] <edbian> Chilaquiles, yeah.  More stable than Ubuntu
[01:43] <Chilaquiles> ok
[01:44] <Goddard> nsd: that doesn't wanna work because it needs php5-common and i tried installing that but its only for people who built php from source
[01:44] <Goddard> nsd: damn
[01:44] <holoseen> maybe no viruses but what about the proftpd  hack? http://www.theregister.co.uk/2010/12/02/proftpd_backdoored/
[01:44] <Chilaquiles> I will try to install debian then thanks for the recommendation

[01:44] <fleure> hello, i like to know if transmission can work with  tor/vidalia ?
[01:45] <edbian> Chilaquiles, Have fun!
[01:45] <multi_io> so..I want to encrypt my /home volume.
[01:45] <multi_io> is LUKS the best way to do that?
[01:45] <FloridaGuy> trying to install a new plymouth theme in ubuntu 10.10.... installing the MIB-Ubuntu  from here...   http://www.ubunturoot.com/2010/07/mib-plymouth-theme-for-ubuntu-and.html    .....   following the directions....then when i reboot...my screen is in verbose mode..just a text shutdown...and a black bootup....????????
[01:45] <hanasaki> what vpn do you all use?   I need a linux server with windows linux and mac clients
[01:45] <edbian> Chilaquiles, It is possible that another distro is better.  It doesn't matter what they're good at as much as what works for you.
[01:45] <nsd> Goddard: So what happens when you try to install php-common specifically? Does it break because it tries to install the newer version? If that's the case, you can try snagging version 5.2 of that from packages.ubuntu.com
[01:46] <nsd> Goddard: You may also be able to snag version 5.2 of PHP from source and try compiling and installing _just_  the curl module
[01:46] <multi_io> the user must have to re-enter the passphrase also after every wake-up from hibernation
[01:47] <oxyrosis> im now on 10.04 and i have no sound. sound did work with the live cd and after install/reboot, nothing.
[01:47] <kayline_> h
[01:47] <oxyrosis> oh and hi KM0201
[01:47] <KM0201> oxyrosis, greetings... get the sound problem figured out?
[01:47] <FloridaGuy> AnyOne able to help with this...??     trying to install a new plymouth theme in ubuntu 10.10.... installing the MIB-Ubuntu  from here...   http://www.ubunturoot.com/2010/07/mib-plymouth-theme-for-ubuntu-and.html    .....   following the directions....then when i reboot...my screen is in verbose mode..just a text shutdown...and a black bootup....????????
[01:47] <oxyrosis> nope, downgraded to 10.04 to see if that did it. still nope
[01:48] <oxyrosis> i dont wanna buy ANOTHER damn peice of hardware
[01:48] <KM0201> oxyrosis, lol, sound cards are cheap.
[01:48] <Chilaquiles> for example for a IRC server, what would be a good distro?
[01:48] <KM0201> as long as yu don't want booming sound...
[01:49] <oxyrosis> yeah, but i already had to buy the motherboard, cpu, and a damn optical drive because this motherboard wouldnt read usb for boot

[01:50] <hunterm>  lots of people
[01:50] <KM0201> oxyrosis, does the machine have frontside audio hooked up?
[01:50] <sprung> edbian, they think it's funny.
[01:50] <hunterm> lots of targets
[01:50] <Chilaquiles> they are against wikileaks edbian :P
[01:50] <oxyrosis> no, just the back

[01:50] <pgpkeys> theyre basically idiots

[01:51] <Chilaquiles> Lets attack wikileaks!!!
[01:51] <sprung> edbian, yes, lots of targets too and plenty of people who.... um, less than know what they are doing which is why they come here for help.

[01:52] <Pici> Chilaquiles: Its a bot.
[01:52] <Chilaquiles> I know
[01:52] <Chilaquiles> but the name
[01:52] <sprung> Chilaquiles, what's nice about it? it prevents floods
[01:52] <schlippen> FloridaGuy you been rooted
[01:53] <Chilaquiles> well with the name it seems like they create floods instead of attacking, but anyways..
[01:53] <Chilaquiles> I was just curious
[01:53] <FloridaGuy> schlippen, i been rooted ??
[01:53] <schlippen> FloridaGuy try safe-mode
[01:53] <guampa> wow, high s/n ratio here
[01:53] <sprung> Chilaquiles, RespondsToFloodsBot is a bit long
[01:53] <guampa> a bad installed plymouth theme is not being rooted
[01:53] <Chilaquiles> Antifloodbot?
[01:53] <schlippen> and remove that theme
[01:54] <Pici> !ot
[01:54] <schlippen> "theme"
[01:54] <sprung> Chilaquiles, by your logic, we should call firemen antifiremen
[01:54] <FloridaGuy> schlippen, safe mode for what to do the plymouth theme
[01:54] <lahwran> how do I tell dhcpd3 what the default gateway should be for a subnet?

[01:54] <sprung> Disk1of5, please part this channel and visit #android
[01:54] <Chilaquiles> well makes some sense
[01:55] <ibm> hi. is there an app that shows cpu temp in the taskbar?
[01:55] <sprung> ibm: yes. next question
[01:55] <schlippen> FloridaGuy that theme was most likely not a theme from what you just said.
[01:55] <FloridaGuy> schlippen, how do i get safe mode i dont even see grub when the system boots
[01:55] <tsimpson> lahwran: lines must end with a semicolon

[01:56] <sanal_madatheth> hello all..
[01:56] <tsimpson> lahwran: and use "option routers 10.123.0.1"
[01:56] <lahwran> ah that started
[01:57] <sprung> ibm, in the time you spent asking a question which i found the answer for using google, you could have alternatively gone to www.google.com and typed cpu temperature linux and found a plethora of sites. You asking in here was not only time consuming but did not provide a variety of options to choose from.
[01:58] <sprung> ibm, you will find that if you go to www.google.com and search for what you are looking for, you may find the answer without asking in this channel
[01:58] <sprung> ibm, it's an incredible site really
[01:58] <aisourph> I use both Thunderbird and Firefox, have set up the Mozilla daily PPAs for Firefox (would be happier with betas not nightlies, but *shrug*), but very much don't want to use non-release versions of Thunderbird. /etc/apt/preferences looks appropriate but I can't get it to work.

[01:58] <aisourph> Presumably this is possible, but what am I doing wrong?
[01:59] <sprung> tsimpson, i answered the man's question
[01:59] <sprung> tsimpson, i found it using google of course
[01:59] <ubu_frz> Can anyone tell me why sometimes, when I try to suspend Maverick running on my laptop, it freezes?
[01:59] <aisourph> (and I have read the apt_preferences man page)
[01:59] <Disk1of5> sprung, quick question why am i to ask in #android when my question is clearly a distribution oriented questioned geared around the lack of updates to libmtp?
[01:59] <schlippen> FloridaGuy I'm not sure how to fix it, maybe some other expert can help?
[02:00] <tsimpson> sprung: that's up to you, but we don't tell people to just google it when they need help. some people aren't so good with search engines and are asking for help
[02:00] <sprung> Disk1of5, because you aren't running Ubuntu, you are running Android.
[02:00] <sprung> tsimpson, I don't know why you are accusing me of telling him to just google it when I did no such thing
[02:00] <schlippen> FloridaGuy try holding shift during boot
[02:00] <schlippen> if that works select recovery mode

[02:01] <craigbass1976> I have a former xp drive that I installed ubuntu on.  What are the chances of getting files off of it from when xp resided on the drive?  I know that government can do it, can I?
[02:01] <tsimpson> sprung: "...you could have alternatively gone to www.google.com and ...", "...you will find that if you go to www.google.com and search..."
[02:02] <sprung> tsimpson, Perry Mason, that was after I answered his question with a link explaining the answer. Drop the subject immediately.
[02:02] <IdleOne> sprung: change your attitude and get back on topic please
[02:02] <KM0201> crag... probably somewhere between "not very good" and "near impossible".. if you've already formatted the drive and installed ubuntu on it.
[02:02] <tsimpson> sprung: I'm just informing you of the rules, if you disagree we can discuss it in #ubuntu-ops?
[02:02] <sprung> IdleOne, The subject is dropped, he needs to end it as well
[02:03] <KM0201> craigbass1976, ... probably somewhere between "not very good" and "near impossible".. if you've already formatted the drive and installed ubuntu on it.
[02:03] <aisourph> craigbass1976: depends how much of the disk blocks you've overwritten. By default I think the Ubuntu installer doesn't do an actual full disk write (I might be wrong here), only enough to set up the drive
[02:03] <Disk1of5> thank you...

[02:06] <dfhsd> wipe
[02:06] <schlippen> FloridaGuy you may have to disable the splash loading screen to get in as well.
[02:06] <dfhsd> Recovery of supposedly erased data from magnetic media is easier than what many
[02:06] <dfhsd> people would like to believe. A technique called Magnetic Force Microscopy
[02:06] <dfhsd> (MFM) allows any moderately funded opponent to recover the last two or three
[02:06] <dfhsd> layers of data written to disk. Wipe repeatedly writes special patterns to the
[02:06] <dfhsd> files to be destroyed, using the fsync() call and/or the O_SYNC bit to force
[02:06] <FloodBot4> dfhsd: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
[02:06] <dfhsd> disk access.
[02:06] <aisourph> IIRC it's possible with some weirdness to get WinXP to run off a USB drive that way but Vista and newer are really better in that regard...
[02:06] <edbian> dan_, You wanna burn an Ubuntu iso on windows xp?  it is possible.  Follow the instructions on the website.  www.ubuntu.com
[02:06] <aisourph> (it's still not a livecd/dvd though)
[02:06] <dan_> I want to replace the cd pendrive
[02:06] <Invisikon> anyone know of a bug in 11.04 where after u upgrade the system from install.. u cant use gnome/unity? it hangs completely
[02:06] <edbian> dan_, I don't know what you mean
[02:06] <dan_> i wanna burn windows xp iso on ubuntu 10.10
[02:07] <dan_> from pendrive
[02:07] <craigbass1976> aisourph, I installed ubuntu and shut it off.  A week or so later, my wife said "hey, I need such and such off that computer"  I hadn't even booted it since the install
[02:07] <dan_> my cd room broken =/
[02:07] <nsd> dan_: Are you saying that the iso is on a pendrive, or that you want to install to the pendrive? Those are two different things
[02:07] <jamesklyne> burn it using brasero
[02:07] <itaylor57> Invisikon: thats Natty, next release
[02:07] <nsd> dan_ nvm, I see now
[02:07] <Invisikon> i know it is itaylor57
[02:07] <jamesklyne> oh bootable usb?

[02:07] <twaggs> anyone help with nvidia 420M on a dell xps l501x?

[02:08] <dan_> burn windows xp iso in pendrive
[02:08] <dan_> but its possible?
[02:08] <dan_> its my question
[02:08] <jamesklyne> or k3b or whatev
[02:08] <iluminator101> I got his error http://pastebin.com/KYRiUxtR thanks in advance
[02:08] <aisourph> craigbass1976, if it's a reasonably-sized drive, there's a chance the file's still there, with the right recovery software. Ubuntu writes 2-3GB I think on installation, so if those didn't clobber it, then you might be able to find the file in question if you know its contents
[02:08] <TeslaTony> I just reinstalled Ubuntu on my laptop, and grub no longer shows my win7 install....which I kinda want to keep. Help?
[02:08] <itaylor57> Invisikon: Just checking some mistype the distro release
[02:09] <aisourph> Standard disk recovery software might have problems if it tries to infer how to scan from the filesystem though (ext4 now likely, rather than NTFS).
[02:09] <dabukalam> I'm looking to turn my ubuntu desktop into a bluetooth server which can receive bluetooth audio and play it on connected speakers, so I can basically listen to the music on my phone wirelessly
[02:09] <Invisikon> np itaylor57, thanks i know stable is 10.10 =]
[02:09] <dabukalam> how is that possible?
[02:09] <craigbass1976> aisourph, what software is that?  Something in the repos?
[02:09] <twaggs> anyone help with nvidia 420M on a dell xps l501x?
[02:09] <sanal_madatheth> hi..
[02:10] <alex87_> do many of you encrypt your home directory?
[02:10] <Invisikon> i do.
[02:10] <UnholyTerror> twaggs, what's the problem?
[02:10] <twaggs> anyone help with nvidia 420M on a dell xps l501x? When I attempt to start X after driver installation, the screen flickers and goes back to terminal
[02:10] <alex87_> Invisikon, what do you use for it?
[02:10] <aisourph> craigbass1976, not that I know of, but this is about the limit of my knowledge on filesystem recovery in your situation. It might end up being specialized, or it could be as simple as booting from a liveCD and grepping (or analogous tool using...) through the block device representing the partition
[02:11] <UnholyTerror> twaggs, have you verified that X is using the nvidia driver?
 how is that possible? Interresting!
[02:11] <KM0201> craigbass1976, if you're using the computer, and you want any hope of possibly getting something off of it, you really need to shut it down, and google fixes on other machines
[02:11] <twaggs> UnholyTerror, I've tried manually installing the driver, and letting ubuntu do it with aditional drivers.  both yield same result
[02:12] <Invisikon> alex87_: incase someone takes my drive, etc it cant be read in any other machine but mine
[02:12] <sanal_madatheth> after upgrading to 11.04 ,no panels,window close buttons.Tried removal and reinstallation of metacity,still not getting it
[02:12] <alex87_> Invisikon, are you using the encryption provided by ubuntu?
[02:12] <wqapol> Hello, I have asimple question. When we custom build any package and do 'make install'. Does it overwrite previous version(if any)?
[02:12] <craigbass1976> KM0201, it's been off since I realized I needed the files.  six or eight months now.  Sitting there.  Taunting me...
[02:12] <aisourph> Also... about my question... http://pastebin.com/T85GRUjY - how do I get apt to respect the preferences I give it being difference for the PPA and non-PPA?
[02:12] <Invisikon> alex87_: correct.
[02:12] <UnholyTerror> twaggs, double check that /etc/X11/xorg.conf shows the 'nvidia' driver?
[02:13] <KM0201> craigbass1976, oh ok... i'm guessing your efforts will still be futile.. but... who knows.
[02:13] <swim> for some reason, a bunch of things just starting going wrong on my ubuntu 10.10
[02:13] <KM0201> craigbass1976, did you try googling "data recovery"
[02:13] <dabukalam> !google | KM0201
[02:13] <twaggs> UnholyTerror, Section "Device"
[02:13] <twaggs>     Identifier     "Device0"

[02:13] <twaggs> EndSection
[02:13] <aisourph> craigbass1976, the summary, and this has its advantages and disadvantages for you, is that it actually might be feasible. And "data recovery" is a really really broad topic.
[02:13] <craigbass1976> KM0201, a while ago.  We jsut had a little "spat" over it, and I was in this chat anyway, so I thought I'd ask.
[02:13] <KM0201> dabukalam, i don't need you to trigger me w/ useless bots.. i was asking him if he had tried it
[02:14] <KM0201> dabukalam, and if you pay attention, my next question(assume the answer was yes) was what it turned up, and i was going to try and offer a suggestion, so if you don't like my answers, ignore me
[02:14] <swim> for some reason, my 10.10 just stopped waking up from suspend and I have wierd tracers on things when my computer reboots
[02:14] <sanal_madatheth> FloodBot1, can u plz help me?
[02:14] <twaggs> UnholyTerror, only way to boot into X is to do recovery/failsafeX
[02:14] <KM0201> craigbass1976, who's "we"
[02:14] <craigbass1976> KM0201, my wife and I
[02:14] <dabukalam> KM0201: ;) chill, we're all here to help each other
[02:14] <UnholyTerror> twaggs, hold...
[02:15] <KM0201> dabukalam, well, i don't need your condescension, when you're not even paying attention to the conversation....keep it to yourself
[02:15] <KM0201> craigbass1976, ah... ok.. :)  been there
[02:15] <Matthew_W> could someone tell me how to fix:  "Can't connect to wireless, firmware missing" in maverick?
[02:16] <swim> for some reason, my 10.10 just stopped waking up from suspend and I have wierd tracers on things when my computer reboots

[02:16] <UnholyTerror> twaggs, http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1579444
[02:16] <ubuntuisloved> anyone try the new nvidia drivers yet?
[02:16] <TeslaTony> sanal_madatheth, Try #ubuntu+1 . You're running an untested alpha that doesn't work so well yet. If you want a more stable ubuntu, try 10.10 (latest release)
[02:16] <G0di> how i register my nick ?
[02:16] <KM0201> !register | G0di
[02:17] <Matthew_W> KM0201: Not sure, whatever comes standard in a Dell Inspiron 1501
[02:17] <luxurymode> wtf, im on a brand new 320 GB HD and ubuntu is telling me "this computer has only 162 MB disk space remaining."
[02:17] <twaggs> UnholyTerror, yeah, i've been there.  i have the last post
[02:17] <sanal_madatheth> TeslaTony, Thanks
[02:17] <KM0201> Matthew_W, open a terminal and type "lspci" (thats a lowercase L) hit enter.. and it will spit out your PCI devices, find your wireless device and let me know what ti is(do not paste the whole freaking out put in the channel)

[02:18] <Scarecrow> Quick question: I have a lot of stuff installed (Games, Wine with 3 weeks worth of config, a lot of internet stuff, things I've coded myself) on my ubuntu partition at the moment. Is it possible to preserve this stuff and move over to Mint taking them with me, or would I need to install everything again?
[02:18] <azlon> twaggs: how can i do that? i have the ISO on this Ubuntu 10.04 machine
[02:19] <twaggs> azlon, type "md5sum <nameOfFile>
[02:19] <deww> Scarecrow: if you're lucky, most of your stuff is in /etc and /home
[02:19] <Invisikon> anyone familiar with 11.04 (natty) ?
[02:19] <Matthew_W> KM0201: give me a few minutes... I have to go find a keyboard to do this
[02:19] <aisourph> Scarecrow, for programs, Mint is debian/ubuntu-based so you can mostly port the installed packages list probably
[02:19] <Matthew_W> KM0201: unless there's an onscreen keyboard?
[02:19] <twaggs> azlon, then google ubuntu md5 and you'll find a list that your iso should match
[02:19] <aisourph> and just automatically reinstall it all (see deborphan or dpkg -l for examples of that)
[02:19] <KM0201> Matthew_W, i dunno, maybe...
[02:20] <ChaosPsycheX> ne1 know anything about wubi?
[02:20] <sprung> IdleOne, tsimpson  Gggodlike was the one who did the exploit a few minutes ago
[02:20] <pgpkeys> Please ask SICCO questions :) Specific, Informative, Concise, Complete, and On-Topic. This means we need a description of the problem, it's symptoms, what you have tried, and MAKE SURE you've searched for answers on your own FIRST! GOOGLE IS YOUR FRIEND! Without this information, we can not assist you since we can not troubleshoot a problem if we have no info regarding what it should be doing and is not.
[02:20] <Matthew_W> KM0201: It's a long story, it's a wall mounted autoupdate photoframe
[02:20] <KM0201> Matthew_W, i see.
[02:20] <Matthew_W> KM0201: Actually it looks like ubuntu smart recognized the drivers were missing in System-Admin-Additional Drivers.
[02:20] <IdleOne> sprung: yeah, innocent victim it seems
[02:20] <twaggs> UnholyTerror, do you have any other ideas, or do I just have to wait it out until canonical fixes it?
[02:20] <Flannel> pgpkeys: Please don't ever do that again.
[02:20] <sprung> oh. ok.
[02:20] <KM0201> Matthew_W, ok.. what driver is there for it?
[02:21] <Matthew_W> KM0201: Though when I did that... it says "system installarchives() failed"
[02:21] <pgpkeys> flannel: err why not?
[02:21] <Gggodlike> sprung, i asked
[02:21] <Matthew_W> KM0201: Broadcom B43
[02:21] <Gggodlike> what it was
[02:21] <eazyigz> hi, I'm trying to figure out how to direct my audio output to a bluetooth speaker.  Has anybody done this?
[02:21] <Matthew_W> KM0201: Though it fails to install
[02:21] <UnholyTerror> twaggs, cat /var/log/Xorg.0.log | grep ee
[02:21] <Flannel> pgpkeys: Because it was spammy and unnecessary.
[02:21] <KM0201> Matthew_W, yea... i take it it's nt connected to the internet
[02:21] <valros> might anyone be able to help me diagnose an ssh connectivity issue?
[02:21] <deww> pgpkeys: this isn't efnet ^_^
[02:21] <IdleOne> pgpkeys: also it went against our channel policies
[02:21] <tsimpson> pgpkeys: spam, that is random and unsolicited messages, is not welcome
[02:21] <Matthew_W> KM0201: Nah, I put a wired conection it
[02:21] <Matthew_W> connection*
[02:21] <dabukalam> Flannel: HAHAHA
[02:21] <Matthew_W> KM0201: so it is
[02:21] <azlon> twaggs: the has matches
[02:21] <pgpkeys> asking  ne1 know anything about wubi is spammy and unnecessary.

[02:21] <Guest41346> Is it useful to install the GSM Multiplexer, when on-line with gsm using usb modem?
[02:21] <twaggs> azlon, ok, the iso if fine then
[02:22] <pgpkeys> WHAT about wubi? WHAT is the problem?
[02:22] <KM0201> Matthew_W, ok.. if you can get hardware drivers to load, and activate that b43 driver, it should work
[02:22] <Matthew_W> KM0201: Though synaptic was running
[02:22] <UnholyTerror> twaggs, cat /var/log/Xorg.0.log | grep ww
[02:22] <tsimpson> pgpkeys: no, that's not what you posted
[02:22] <Matthew_W> KM0201: and that's been trouble in the past
[02:22] <pgpkeys> idleone: ok now that I understand
[02:22] <twaggs> UnholyTerror, what am i looking for?
[02:22] <swim> for some reason, my 10.10 just stopped waking up from suspend and I have wierd tracers on things when my computer reboots
[02:22] <Matthew_W> trying again
[02:22] <KM0201> Matthew_W, well, close synaptic, and open hardware drivers.
[02:22] <azlon> twaggs: i just right clicked on the iso file in nautilus and said burn to CD. the slowest it would let me select is 8x... is there a better way to burn an iso?
[02:22] <BitEncrypt> when saving in gedit txt editor what does the 'line ending' function mean
[02:22] <Flannel> pgpkeys: Right. But you didn't help that person to ask a better question, you just spouted a paragraph of text.  While it may have been well meaning, there are more effective means of helping.
[02:22] <ChaosPsycheX> i installed ubuntu using wubi. i then wanted to move my ubuntu installation over to another partition, using wubi-move-to-partition. after i did this and tried to boot into it i got an error msg and dropped to a command prompt

[02:23] <aisourph> Yeah so IRC help etiquette tends to be 'just ask'. But I've 'just asked' twice now with plenty of other traffic around so it's not as if the channel is dead and the first time I mentioned the various RTFMing I'd done via URLs etc (the justf___inggoogleit people can shut up)  and got ignored both times except for my discussion with craigbass1976. So my question: are apt preference just a bad thing do ask about at the moment per people wh
[02:23] <aisourph> o know/care about them not being active?
[02:23] <UnholyTerror> twaggs, what does those two commands show.... can you pastebin?
[02:23] <sprung> the problem I have been having is I want to connect to a VPN that is inside of another VPN. When I try to connect to the first VPN, no problem, but when I try to connect to the second that is inside, it's greyed out and I can't select it. Is this a limitation of network-manager?
[02:23] <Hilikus> i installed an nvidia video card and connected the svideo output to my tv but the resolution is too big. the image is cut on the edges. is there any way to fix this?
[02:23] <oxyrosis> KM0201, this is me in livecd mode, and guess what? the sound is now busted here too.
[02:23] <Invisikon> anyone familiar with 11.04 (natty) ?
[02:23] <KM0201> oxyrosis, hmm
[02:23] <pgpkeys> :shrug: its worked for focusing people and their questions for years on multiple networks including this one, BUT since it bothers you I will do as you ask and not do it again
[02:23] <twaggs> UnholyTerror, trying to figure that out now
[02:23] <UnholyTerror> twaggs, cat /var/log/Xorg.0.log | grep EE
[02:23] <pgpkeys> AND i will offer apologies
[02:24] <Flannel> pgpkeys: Thanks.  Much appreciated.
[02:24] <twaggs> UnholyTerror, http://paste.ubuntu.com/544254/
[02:24] <tsimpson> Invisikon: natty support is in #ubuntu+1
[02:24] <UnholyTerror> twaggs, capital EE and WW
[02:24] <luxurymode> which version of adobe flash should i download? YUM for linux or APT for 9.04+?
[02:24] <twaggs> oo
[02:24] <BitEncrypt> hilikus, have tried messin with the resolution
[02:24] <aisourph> YUM is for OpenSUSE/Fedora/etc
[02:24] <aisourph> modulo alien
[02:24] <luxurymode> aisourph: so which one then?
[02:24] <Hilikus> BitEncrypt: yes, but it is always cut
[02:25] <go3900> Is it useful to install the GSM Multiplexer, when on-line with gsm using usb modem? I would like to pimp my connection a bit
[02:25] <twaggs> UnholyTerror, http://paste.ubuntu.com/544255/
[02:25] <sprung> luxurymode, definitely not the YUM one, but there is Adobe Flash 10 available from the Ubuntu Software Center
[02:25] <aisourph> between those, apt.
[02:25] <swim> for some reason, my 10.10 just stopped waking up from suspend and I have wierd tracers on things when my computer reboots
[02:25] <luxurymode> sprung: oh awesome
[02:25] <valros> So I cant ssh or telnet into my desktop from any other machine in the LAN, but connecting through localhost is viable, any suggestions?
[02:25] <aisourph> but personally I prefer to get the tarball from adobe labs directly, for the 64-bit version
[02:25] <sprung> luxurymode, are you getting this via the Ubuntu Software Center? you should be doing that
[02:25] <sprung> yeah 64 bit is different
[02:25] <naveen1> hii.. iam a newbie to ubuntu.. can someone help me with finger-ldap package uninstallation??
[02:25] <sprung> luxurymode, are you using 64 bit?
[02:25] <BitEncrypt> hilicus, does your monitor come with zoom or unzoom function
[02:26] <BitEncrypt> hilikus, see above
[02:26] <UnholyTerror> twaggs, can you just pastebin the whole Xrg.0.log file?
[02:26] <twaggs> UnholyTerror, yeah
[02:26] <Hilikus> BitEncrypt: its a tv
[02:26] <sprung> luxurymode, it will be under the Canonical Partners section
[02:26] <dav_> hi guys - i'm booting off of the usb stick. is there a way to skip the window that asks "try or install" at boot time?
[02:26] <luxurymode> sprung, no dont think so
[02:26] <naveen1> hii.. iam a newbie to ubuntu.. can someone help me with finger-ldap package uninstallation??
[02:26] <BitEncrypt> hilikus, i mean your computer
[02:27] <sprung> luxurymode, Applications -> Ubuntu Software Center
[02:27] <Hilikus> BitEncrypt: i have no idea
[02:27] <KM0201> dav_, i dont think so.. since the idea of the live CD, is to "try then buy"...
[02:27] <Hilikus> where would that be
[02:27] <Flannel> aisourph: I believe that there's no way to specify you want to disregard the PPA version.  Since it's named "maverick".  The only recourse I can see is to give maverick-updates (and/or maverick-security) a higher priority than "maverick", except that's not forward compatible if you upgrade from Maverick
[02:27] <twaggs> UnholyTerror, http://paste.ubuntu.com/544257/
[02:27] <dav_> KM0201: my intent is to use this key only as a "try", no buy :) I already use ubuntu on all my computers..
[02:27] <luxurymode> sprung: i see adobe flash plugin 10, but it just asks me to "use this source"
[02:28] <aisourph> Flannel: but the dists/Release files do contain distinguishing information
[02:28] <emeraldx> Is it possible to turn an Ubuntu install w/two network cards into a network tap?
[02:28] <KM0201> dav_, well, then just click "Try" and don't worry about it.. :)
[02:28] <aisourph> which http://linux.die.net/man/5/apt_preferences (and local man page) suggests can be used to filter preferences
[02:28] <BitEncrypt> hilikus, have you seen your x server settings
[02:28] <sprung> luxurymode, did you click yes?
[02:28] <dav_> KM0201: yes but have to click try on every boot... surely there's some startup script somewhere where this can be commented out..
[02:28] <naveen1> hii.. iam a newbie to ubuntu.. can someone help me with finger-ldap package uninstallation??
[02:28] <luxurymode> sprung: yeah got it now. after yes it lets me install
[02:29] <aisourph> in particular, they have different origins and labels (http://ppa.launchpad.net/ubuntu-mozilla-daily/ppa/ubuntu/dists/maverick/Release vs http://security.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/maverick/Release )
[02:29] <sprung> luxurymode, :)
[02:29] <Hilikus> BitEncrypt: no, what could i change
[02:29] <KM0201> dav_, it's a live CD.. why on earth would ther ebe a startup script?.. nothing gets saved when you reboot
[02:29] <luxurymode> officially supports FF, but should work with chrome, right?
[02:29] <sprung> luxurymode, you will need to restart your browser
[02:29] <luxurymode> cool, thanks for your help
[02:29] <luxurymode> really appreciate it
[02:29] <sprung> np
[02:29] <dav_> KM0201: am using it on a USB key. stuff is saved. (I even apt-get installed some stuff and it sticks)
[02:29] <Matthew_W> Ok, so that's working!  One final question
[02:30] <KM0201> dav_, then you have a persistent install.. there might be a way to do it.
[02:30] <UnholyTerror> twaggs, hold...
[02:30] <Matthew_W> If I want to input the SSID and Authentication of a wireless network so it automagically connects and doesn't ever ask me to authenticate... how would I do that?
[02:30] <BitEncrypt> hilikus, go to system, admin. nvidia x server  there you can setup another monitor
[02:30] <dav_> KM0201: yes that's what I'm looking for :)
[02:31] <emeraldx> Does anyone have experience w/network taps here?
[02:31] <BitEncrypt> hilikus, press 'detect displays'
[02:31] <mac_> Hey rom
[02:31] <mac_> Can I just install ubuntu?
[02:31] <mac_> if grub is corrupted
[02:32] <mac_> actually reinstall to be more precise
[02:32] <KM0201> mac_, that will usually fix a grub problem, as it will install a new grub w/ the new install (thus overwriting the old one)
[02:32] <UnholyTerror> twaggs, can you paste /etc/X11/xorg.conf ?
[02:32] <mac_> KM0201: thats no problem
[02:32] <BitEncrypt> does anybody know what the ' line ending ' function in gedit means
[02:32] <Matthew_W> Does if ["$2
[02:32] <mac_> KM0201: the thing is I have a windows partition too
[02:32] <mac_> KM0201: will it harm that?
[02:33] <Matthew_W> Does if ["$2" = "up"] then  detect wifi?
[02:33] <Diamondcite> BitEncrypt: Maybe the difference between a UNIX end of line VS a DOS end of line?
[02:33] <KM0201> mac_, well how is your current install set u?
[02:33] <mac_> half windows half ubuntu]
[02:33] <mac_> well actually more windows
[02:33] <Diamondcite> Notepad doesn't really like the UNIX end of line.(doesn't go to a new line as it should)
[02:33] <KM0201> mac_, ok, but it's not a wubi install, right?
[02:33] <twaggs> UnholyTerror, http://paste.ubuntu.com/544258/
[02:33] <UnholyTerror> twaggs, hold...
[02:33] <mac_> KM0201: I have no idea
[02:33] <aisourph> and http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/maverick/Release actually looks very similar to http://security.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/maverick/Release in particular it has all the same Origin/Label/Suite/Version/Codename/Date
[02:34] <ChaosPsycheX> can someone help me? i'm having trouble booting into ubuntu
[02:34] <BitEncrypt> diamondcite, so if i choose windows EoL will the txt doc read on a windows machine?
[02:34] <programmer__> ?
[02:34] <olskolirc> im trying to use gtk-recordmydesktop and it says that my /dev/dsp is busy
[02:34] <UnholyTerror> twaggs, did you say you get a GUI... low graphics mode?
[02:34] <olskolirc> how can i see what is using my sound card please?
[02:35] <twaggs> UnholyTerror, yes, That's what i'm in now... actually at full resolution, just no hardware accel i'm assuming
[02:35] <wrice> lsof /dev/dsp
[02:35] <programmer__> what is the trouble?
[02:35] <Diamondcite> BitEncrypt: It should read better in some programs. Note that I've only found notepad to be weak against a non-windows end of line.
[02:36] <ChaosPsycheX> i moved my ubuntu install to it's own partition and can't boot into it from grub. any ideas?
[02:36] <UnholyTerror> ok, open a terminal...
[02:36] <luxurymode> how can i check which drive my ubuntu is installed on? having major disks issues
[02:36] <ChaosPsycheX> luxury, did you use wubi?
[02:36] <Quackers> Gparted
[02:36] <luxurymode> chaospyschex: no idea... lol total noob here
[02:37] <mac_> KM0201:
[02:37] <KM0201> mac_, hold on
[02:37] <mac_> KM0201: no it was done through ubuntu
[02:37] <mac_> KM0201: it was not installed in windows
[02:37] <go3900> can I use GSM multiplexer to make my usb modem handle many applications better at the same time?
[02:37] <Quackers> Use Synaptic to install gparted. Then System,Admin,gparted
[02:37] <mac_> KM0201: it was done by the live cd
[02:37] <glitchd> can anyone help me get flash to work in chrome for ubuntu? i cant watch youtube or any other flash related site.
[02:37] <KM0201> mac_, ok, then just install over your old install.
[02:37] <dan_> ty all
[02:37] <mac_> KM0201: but it will ask to set the partitions again right?
[02:38] <KM0201> mac_, yes, you'll have to do "advanced" partitioning to overwrite the old ones
[02:38] <Nicolas_Leonidas> how do you remove a line in vim?
[02:38] <mac_> KM0201: well wouldn't this put the windows installation at risk
[02:38] <KM0201> no.
[02:38] <ChaosPsycheX> i'm having problems booting into ubuntu after moving it to it's own partition.
[02:38] <ChaosPsycheX> any idea why?
[02:39] <KM0201> mac_, type this w/o quotes.. "/join #km0201"
[02:39] <guampa> luxurymode: type 'mount | grep "/" ' in a terminal, that will tell you where you have your ubuntu installed, at least the root filesystem
[02:39] <Quackers> Chaos, is Grub installed?
[02:39] <ChaosPsycheX> quakers, yup
[02:39] <TeslaTony> I just reinstalled Ubuntu, dual-booting with Windows, and Grub isn't showing my Win7 install. How do I fix this?
[02:39] <ChaosPsycheX> when i pick the one that is on it's own partition i get dropped to inetramfs
[02:40] <Diamondcite> ChaosPsycheX: Are you sure grub was updated to point to the RIGHT partition?
[02:40] <Quackers> Chaos, try re-installing grub via Live cd
[02:41] <ChaosPsycheX> diamoncite, nope. how can i configure grub?
[02:41] <Quackers> TeslaTony sudo update-grub

[02:44] <Diamondcite> ChaosPsycheX: Though for more information.. https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Grub2
[02:44] <aisourph> cyberchapin, http://www.ubuntu.com/netbook/get-ubuntu/download ?

[02:48] <cyberchapin> @jschall you need to install ndiswrapper with gui and download the driver of your WiFi Card
[02:48] <Quackers> Tesla, when did it last boot?
[02:50] <TeslaTony> Quackers, probably a day or two ago. I had an Ubuntu 10.10 install alongside it nicely, but I did a reinstall on Ubuntu yesterday, and it hasn't been showing since

[02:54] <aisourph> alright so an alternate form of the question. and maybe this will trigger the jfgoogleit people (hi all) but I'll ask just and let people fill in details if they want: I want Firefox 4.x (from an actual repo) but the released Thunderbird version (my web browser has no real state but my mail client rather does). Does Ubuntu provide a supported way to accomplish this?

[02:56] <Flannel> aisourph: The people in #ubuntu-mozillateam might be able to answer that quicker than you might get an answer here; they're knee-deep in all the mozilla versioning stuff, and adept at PPA issues.

[03:05] <tsimpson> Nismine: it's a ruby script, install ruby, put the script somewhere like ~/bin/gyazo and make it executable
[03:06] <IdleOne> or use the screenshot tool installed by default?
[03:06] <sacarlson> Nismine: well you would need to intall the ruby package to start
[03:06] <Nismine> Alright, I started using ubuntu yesterday, I still have no idea how to do most things
[03:07] <Nismine> How do I install ruby?
[03:07] <Diamondcite> Default screenshot tool seems more convient
[03:07] <Diamondcite> Unless you are already used to using gyazo from other places.
[03:07] <netbeast> hello
[03:07] <Nismine> I prefer Gyazo because it instantly uploads it
[03:07] <netbeast> i need some tech help
[03:07] <itaylor57> or its your homework assignment
[03:07] <sacarlson> IdleOne: Nismine: yes what would make this any better then the screenshot tool that seems to be built in?
[03:08] <netbeast> for a creative pccam300 i cant seem to get it to work in ubuntu 10.10
[03:08] <Diamondcite> sacarlson: Probably the only difference is lack of instant upload.
[03:08] <Nismine> Yes, it is
[03:08] <Nismine> But it becomes much more convenient
[03:08] <Nismine> At lest for me
[03:09] <Diamondcite> Nismine: Well as the others said.. please install ruby
[03:09] <netbeast> can anyone help me with the creative pc cam 300 problem
[03:09] <s093294> anyone have a solution for: I would like my ubuntu to on boot to dial up a vpn connection, and if dropped at some point reconnect? cant find a solution to this on google
[03:09] <sacarlson> Diamondcite: ya I guess it would be like pastebinit for a screengrabed image
[03:10] <Diamondcite> netbeast: Please be more specific as to what kind of problem. Is it on fire? Does it not detect? Are you upside down in a certain app?
[03:10] <Nismine> What is the easiest way to get ruby?
[03:10] <dannek7> hey all
[03:10] <Nismine> From the official site?
[03:10] <Diamondcite> Nismine: software center
[03:10] <Nismine> Alright
[03:10] <netbeast> i dont know if it detects i think it does cheese doesnt show anything it says it doesnt detect
[03:11] <netbeast> this is what i get
[03:11] <netbeast> netbeast@netbeast:~$ lsb_release -cdr;lsusb

[03:11] <FloodBot1> netbeast: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
[03:11] <dannek7> I did something dumb, I changed my screen resolution on my external monitor. Now I cannot see my top bar. How do I get this top bar back or change the resolution?
[03:11] <netbeast> well guess i cant paste what i get because i flood
[03:11] <Diamondcite> netbeast:  Please do as the bot says, don't paste into the channel ^_^
[03:11] <FredFlinstone> set up samba , can see share, cannot access, can someone help?  samba is not around ...
[03:11] <netbeast> ok
[03:12] <netbeast> would make it easier to help if i can paste
[03:12] <Diamondcite> [22:11:08] <FloodBot1> netbeast: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
[03:12] <sacarlson> Nismine: I also use gem but so I would recomend also apt-get install rubygems1.8    or maybe the newer versions
[03:12] <craigbass1976> FredFlinstone, can't access from where?
[03:12] <FredFlinstone> from my win box
[03:13] <Nismine> Ok, I instaled it via apt-get
[03:13] <craigbass1976> FredFlinstone, what's the samba log say is going on?
[03:13] <symptom> can anyone point me towards a good nvidia vs. AMD linux graphics discussion/page
[03:13] <FredFlinstone> i have one user, set up in samba & enabled
[03:13] <netbeast> well the system detects  it because the id info comes up
[03:13] <idea4good> hi all which device should i specify my boot loader installation here is my partition table
[03:13] <idea4good> http://pastebin.com/bkJZbspN
[03:13] <FredFlinstone> how do i get samba log?
[03:13] <Diamondcite> FredFlinstone: Is there a user account setup for it? Of it's windows xp, have you tried disabling simple file sharing?
[03:13] <netbeast> but cheese cant see it
[03:14] <FredFlinstone> yeah the win boxes are ok, i know win well
[03:14] <craigbass1976> FredFlinstone, I'm guessing somewhere in /var/log/samba  I've never set up anything but wide open shares though
[03:14] <sacarlson> Nismine: you can upgrade most parts of ruby with gems and also get all the cool libs they have in it
[03:14] <Igoru> can't stop mysql via 'sudo service mysql stop'. what the hell this means, from syslog?
[03:14] <Igoru> operation="open" pid=25051 parent=25050 profile="/usr/sbin/mysqld" requested_mask="r::" denied_mask="r::" fsuid=0 ouid=0 name="/sys/devices/system/cpu/"
[03:14] <FredFlinstone> these are passworded win shares
[03:14] <Diamondcite> netbeast: if you do "lsmod | grep -i spca" do you see any results?
[03:14] <skullboy> how do i upgrade from ubuntu 10.04 to 10.10
[03:15] <craigbass1976> Igoru, does sudo /etc/init.d/mysql stop work?
[03:15] <Nismine> sacarlson: How exactly do I do it?
[03:15] <craigbass1976> FredFlinstone, no idea then.  Sorry
[03:15] <skullboy> how do i upgrade from ubuntu 10.04 to 10.10
[03:15] <netbeast> yes i get gspca_main
[03:15] <netbeast> webcamstudio,gspca_main
[03:15] <Diamondcite> FredFlinstone: Are they in the same workgroup? Do the logins used have the same password in both linux and windows? (for the linux side, the user needs to exist too)
[03:16] <netbeast> gspca_spca500
[03:16] <netbeast> and videodev
[03:16] <craigbass1976> skullboy, does this work? http://www.howtoforge.com/how-to-upgrade-ubuntu-10.04-lucid-lynx-to-10.10-maverick-meerkat-desktop-and-server
[03:16] <Diamondcite> netbeast: how about "ls /dev/video*"
[03:16] <s093294> anyone who can make a bash script that check if ppp0 is alive if not run sudo pon vpn1 ?
[03:16] <sacarlson> Nismine: the apt-get as I showed above
[03:16] <Igoru> craigbass1976 no too.
[03:16] <idea4good> http://pastebin.com/bkJZbspN here is my partition table
[03:17] <Nismine> apt-get gems?
[03:17] <cntb> skullboy: why not google http://www.google.com.mx/search?q=how+do+i+upgrade+from+ubuntu+10.04+to+10.10&ie=utf-8&oe=utf-8&aq=t&client=firefox-a&rlz=1R1GZEV_es___MX407
[03:17] <netbeast> i get /dev/video0 and /dev/video1
[03:17] <FredFlinstone> Diamondcite, yes wher is my workgroup in ubuntu
[03:17] <FredFlinstone> ?
[03:17] <sacarlson> Nismine: apt-get install rubygems1.8
[03:17] <idea4good> should i use same partition that i use for linux installation to install boot loader
[03:17] <FredFlinstone> i m kinda new to linux, but not computers
[03:18] <Diamondcite> FredFlinstone: That's configured in /etc/samba/smb.conf I think...
[03:18] <Nismine> sacarlson: Alright, done. What next?
[03:18] <_PI_> guys, for some reason I f'd up ubuntu on my desktop so bad, that even after a windows reformat - the cd won't boot
[03:19] <FredFlinstone> yeah workgroup is the same
[03:19] <sacarlson> Nismine: I see I also have apt-get install rubygems  installed so it might be a package that just links another
[03:19] <Diamondcite> FredFlinstone: How about the users?
[03:19] <sacarlson> Nismine: well then try run your script and see if your missing something
[03:19] <FredFlinstone> yes
[03:20] <symptom> NVIDIA > ATI for linux ????
[03:20] <Nismine> How do I save the script? Txt, sh, ?
[03:20] <Diamondcite> FredFlinstone: Such as... do both system use "slate" as the username and "bedrock" as the password for example?
[03:20] <FredFlinstone> i did this before in karmic, i cant rememebr what is missing
[03:20] <FredFlinstone> yes
[03:20] <Diamondcite> FredFlinstone: I'm making assumptions the user it's being shared as has persmission to the said folder
[03:20] <skpl> how do i turn my gnome splash screen on?
[03:20] <FredFlinstone> and user is in samba and enabled
[03:21] <sacarlson> Nismine: then start google for learning ruby with like http://www.troubleshooters.com/codecorn/ruby/basictutorial.htm
[03:21] <_PI_> anyone help me get ubuntu back up and running?
[03:21] <FredFlinstone> folder is a drive and says i am not the owner, which is funny i am the only user
[03:21] <FredFlinstone> owner is xp i guess
[03:22] <_PI_> even wubi's partition won't boot
[03:22] <FredFlinstone> how do i get at the freaking permissions?
[03:22] <skullboy> craigbass1976, it does not seem to
[03:23] <sacarlson> FredFlinstone: you might need to use something like forceuser=youruser    forcegroup=yourgroup  in the samba config
[03:23] <edbian> FredFlinstone, ls -la    lets you see them
[03:23] <Diamondcite> FredFlinstone: I'm confused.. permissions linux or windows side?
[03:23] <FredFlinstone> i didnt do  forcegroup
[03:23] <FredFlinstone> trying that
[03:23] <greezmunkey> yikes
[03:24] <FredFlinstone> linux permissions says i am not the owner
[03:24] <_PI_> anyone?
[03:24] <klowny> my systeminfo shows me only having one processor, but i have two. any help?
[03:24] <sacarlson> FredFlinstone: I'm not too experienced on the windows side but that's what's needed for windows to use ubuntu as a server
[03:24] <edbian> FredFlinstone, sudo chown <youruserName> file   to make yourself the owner
[03:24] <francis> cheguei... boa noite..
[03:25] <^Phantom^> woohoo i found a blank cd
[03:25] <bonjoyee> do gnome apps work under lxde?
[03:25] <^Phantom^> Can I please get some help setting up a Xubuntu cd?
[03:25] <idea4good> what happened to the room today is it everyone is super busy so no time to listen some stupid installer questions
[03:25] <edbian> bonjoyee, Yes but you have to install a bunch of dependencies
[03:25] <FredFlinstone> do i need to be the owner?
[03:25] <edbian> ^Phantom^, What do you mean "set up"
[03:25] <FredFlinstone> sacarlson, i have all that, must be more
[03:26] <^Phantom^> My system that it's going on has 192MB of ram right now (will be upgraded in the future) and I was told to make an alternative install CD.
[03:26] <edbian> FredFlinstone, i have no idea.  You said you weren't the owner which implied you want / need to be?
[03:26] <glitchd> JosephUbuntu, no more ideas?
[03:26] <Diamondcite> idea4good: If it's just where to put the MBR, the drive it's on ie /dev/sda (not /dev/sda1), if it's grub/boot loader pick the location with /boot
[03:26] <JosephUbuntu> Sorry.
[03:26] <JosephUbuntu> I don't have any more ideas.
[03:26] <FredFlinstone> been using http://www.prash-babu.com/2008/05/how-to-setup-samba-in-linux.html with help from a guy, but he is stuck
[03:26] <sacarlson> idea4good: no don't use the partition use the drive  like /dev/sda
[03:26] <JosephUbuntu> I'd try on the forums if I were you.
[03:26] <glitchd> JosephUbuntu, thx for the effort
[03:26] <JosephUbuntu> yep
[03:26] <bonjoyee> edbian: i have disabled installing recommended packages..and when trying to install lxde its just 9MB!!!...so i need more?
[03:26] <edbian> ^Phantom^, sure.  You'll find instrucstions here https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation
[03:26] <dfhsd> Julian Assange has an assurance torrent 1.4Gb, encrypted. It's included in many bigger Music-torrents. Go 4 FLAC.
[03:26] <idea4good> let me show you the screen shot
[03:27] <glitchd> can someone help me to get flash working in chromium for ubuntu 10.04?
[03:27] <FredFlinstone> i have an ntfs drive to be shared, i did what the page says
[03:27] <skullboy> craigbass1976, it does not seem to
[03:27] <FredFlinstone> but it dont work
[03:27] <edbian> bonjoyee, If you want to run gnome apps you need to have (for one I know) gtk installed.  Now it's possible that it's already installed.  IDK, who cares.  Just try to install the programs you want.  Recommended packages are not the same as dependencies.  apt-get will get everything you need
[03:27] <itaylor57> glitchd: you need to find a PPA to get flash running
[03:27] <sacarlson> glitchd: it works 95% of the time in firefox in 10.04 for me
[03:27] <edbian> skullboy, how's it going?
[03:28] <klowny> anyone able to help with the processor thing?
[03:28] <glitchd> itaylor57, where can i find it?
[03:28] <idea4good> Diamondcite : http://imgur.com/sooWg
[03:28] <glitchd> sacarlson, yes it works in ff for me too
[03:28] <greezmunkey> FredFlinstone: can you read and write to the ntfs drive? Is it mounted?
[03:29] <skullboy> edbain, good got my new system up and runing but it is based off of ubuntu 10.04 and i want 10.10
[03:29] <idea4good> sacarlson : just pasted the image
[03:29] <glitchd> sacarlson, but im starting to use chromium more nd more nd i dont want to have to swtich back nd forth all the time
[03:29] <FredFlinstone> i used ntfs cong tool, did that scru me?
[03:29] <idea4good> http://pastebin.com/bkJZbspN  partition table
[03:29] <bonjoyee> edbian, I mean the programs are already installed and don't need more as of now...just want to try a diff DE...
[03:29] <FredFlinstone> seems to have
[03:30] <FredFlinstone> ntfs config tool has sfa except two check boxes!
[03:30] <edbian> bonjoyee, Just switch to lxde and start your apps.  The DE is not an environment as much as it is just a couple apps that are running all the time that help you do useful things.
[03:30] <edbian> bonjoyee, It does not limit you in any way as far as what apps you can run.
[03:30] <francis> /alguem on?
[03:30] <skullboy> edbain, can you help me
[03:30] <FredFlinstone> how do i ACTUALLY configure it?
[03:31] <edbian> skullboy, Depends what the problem is
[03:31] <bonjoyee> edbian, thanks
[03:31] <edbian> bonjoyee, no problem :)
[03:31] <Diamondcite> idea4good: That looks about right. That is the HDD the linux is installed on correct?
[03:31] <sacarlson> FredFlinstone: where does the problem lie?  in windows users can't access your linux or linux can't access the windows shared files?
[03:31] <edbian> skullboy, But the futurama holiday special is going to get at least 50% of my attention
[03:31] <FredFlinstone> windows users can't access  linux
[03:31] <bonjoyee> edbian,....the nick..something to do with debian?...just curios..
[03:31] <idea4good> Diamondcite : But if you look at my partition table I want to install linux in sda5
[03:32] <edbian> bonjoyee, I use Debian and my name is Ed!
[03:32] <edbian> ha
[03:32] <sacarlson> FredFlinstone: well I can see from the link above you have the security tight,  just open it up
[03:32] <Diamondcite> sacarlson: FredFlinstone: In this case.. maybe he needs the NTFS mounted as a user other than root? Since samba might be facing access restrictions.
[03:32] <klowny> this support is pretty bad. think ill come back when it is a little less hectic.
[03:32] <skullboy> edbain, well the os gnacktrack is based off of ubuntu 10.04 i want to update the version to 10.10 but the normal way of doing that does not work what should i try
[03:32] <Diamondcite> idea4good: Linux installer REPLACES the windows boot loader.
[03:32] <FredFlinstone> you guys lost me now
[03:33] <edbian> skullboy, Go to system-> admin -> software sources -> and change it to "normal releases' instead of "long term releases'
[03:33] <sacarlson> Diamondcite: you could be correct,  I'm not sure about that part since you are also mounting an ntfs disk I guess in linux FredFlinstone
[03:33] <bonjoyee> edbian:hmmm..i use debian as well...:)
[03:33] <edbian> skullboy, Then try again
[03:33] <^Phantom^> Can the xubuntu alternative CD run live?
[03:33] <idea4good> Diamondcite : so you want me to specify whole hdd as selected in pic
[03:33] <edbian> bonjoyee, hooray!
[03:33] <Diamondcite> idea4good: Yes.
[03:33] <rww> ^Phantom^: alternate CDs aren't live cds, no.
[03:33] <Diamondcite> idea4good: Least in regard to the boot loader.
[03:33] <skullboy> edbain, i tryed 10 times
[03:34] <IBMThinkPad> Hello, can someone help me real quick? I am having an issue with my sound card
[03:34] <edbian> skullboy, Then perhaps that distro is lagging behind Ubuntu.
[03:34] <_PI_> anyone ever get the cd to boot but hang your system?
[03:34] <FredFlinstone> and i was so close :(
[03:34] <edbian> skullboy, Technically this is Ubuntu support.  Not gnutrack or whatever
[03:34] <_PI_> cuz that's what mine's doing
[03:34] <^Phantom^> Because I want to backup the hard drive (~30GB) onto my external hard drive (250GB) for restoration in case this doesn't work right now.
[03:34] <sacarlson> FredFlinstone: so best to solve one problem at a time by just shareing another part of your linux system that isn't ntfs to take that part of the problem out until you find out if anything works
[03:34] <Diamondcite> sacarlson: FredFlinstone: I treat ntfs-3g as voodoo, Maybe there is a way to change the user it's mounted as but I don't know how personally.
[03:34] <FredFlinstone> i have only ntfs shares
[03:35] <skullboy> edbain, is it not based off of ubuntu???
[03:35] <FredFlinstone> i have only ntfs drives, other than a ubuntu partition
[03:35] <mohamed> hii 4 all
[03:35] <IBMThinkPad> Can someone help me out real quick?
[03:35] <edbian> skullboy, Sure, it's based off of Ubuntu.  But it might lag behind a bit.  Similar to Mint.  They are different from Ubuntu, maybe they are still making their revisions on 10.10
[03:35] <sacarlson> Diamondcite: yes I think there are mount values that can be forced at mount time but lets simplify and fix samba first
[03:36] <edbian> skullboy, code development is not automatic ya know
[03:36] <nsd> How can I run executable files on a mounted partition that I set up in /etc/fstab? I explicity wrote the 'exec' flag and yet when I mount the partition I can run executables and mount tells me that it was mounted with 'noexec'. Any ideas?
[03:36] <idea4good> Diamondcite : when i try to install since sda5 file system is unknown "No root file system specified"
[03:36] <sacarlson> FredFlinstone: just use you /home/you/here  as a temp dir to test with
[03:36] <skullboy> edbain, i know im a programmer my self
[03:36] <IBMThinkPad> The driver that is supplied to my ThinkPad T21's Crystal Fusion Sound card is not working properly. I constantly have to adjust the volume in Ubuntu to get the audio to come thru, is there a solution to this?
[03:36] <edbian> skullboy, :) Ask in the gnubacktrack channel
[03:37] <mohamed> i faced that prob b4
[03:37] <sacarlson> FredFlinstone: it's almost imposible to fix two broken things at the same time
[03:37] <_PI_> does anyone see this?
[03:37] <Nismine> sacarlson: I still can't run it. Do i need to do something with ruby first?
[03:37] <mohamed> just install it at whole the hard disk
[03:37] <nsd> _PI_: If you're asking if your IRC client is working, then yes
[03:37] <sacarlson> Nismine: what does it say is missing?
[03:37] <edbian> _PI_, I see it
[03:37] <Nismine> It doesn't say anything. It simply does nothing when I run it.
[03:38] <mohamed> what can u tell me about programming?
[03:38] <sacarlson> Nismine: try run the hello world script to make sure you have ruby installed or that you have at least pointed to ruby in you script
[03:38] <FredFlinstone> what goes in smbusers? an example?
[03:38] <greezmunkey> mohamed: it's boring
[03:38] <_PI_> listen, I know you guys are really busy, but I think I may have a simple problem
[03:38] <skullboy> edbain, they dont seem to have one
[03:38] <Nismine> Alright
[03:38] <mohamed> why
[03:38] <_PI_> I've gotten ubuntu to boot before from cd, and it won't now
[03:38] <sacarlson> FredFlinstone: are you sharing /home/you yet?
[03:38] <nsd> greezmunkey: you would've thought that after, oh, like seven years I would have realized that :)
[03:39] <itaylor57> glitchd: try this link to get flash player in chromium http://www.ubuntugeek.com/howto-enable-flash-support-for-google-chromium-browser.html
[03:39] <edbian> skullboy, Well than they don't have a feature that Ubuntu does.
[03:39] <greezmunkey> :)
[03:39] <FredFlinstone> sacarlson, prob not, how?
[03:39] <IBMThinkPad> Hey guess what, I have a question. If someone is willing to help...
[03:39] <netzsooc> I have a problem with Skype in Ubuntu 10.10
[03:39] <FredFlinstone> remeber i am a newb
[03:39] <sacarlson> FredFlinstone: just go into nautilus and right click on a dir in your home to share
[03:39] <mohamed> netzsooc go ahead
[03:39] <nsd> _PI_: Is it on a different machine than you tried booting off the CD before? You may have to set up your BIOS to try booting from removable media like CDs before your hard drive
[03:39] <skullboy> edbain, they are already going under
[03:39] <netzsooc> I can send video but I can't recieve video, I mean people can see me in conferences but I can't see them
[03:40] <sacarlson> FredFlinstone: one step at a time grasshopper
[03:40] <netzsooc> http://forum.skype.com/index.php?showtopic=776493
[03:40] <netzsooc> that is my exact problem
[03:40] <mohamed> well
[03:41] <FredFlinstone> ok done
[03:41] <netzsooc> I have looked through different forums but they solve problem about sending video
[03:41] <nsd> Anyone that knows something about fstab and mount options? I'm having trouble executing files on a FAT partition...
[03:41] <mohamed> have u checked your sky options?
[03:41] <netzsooc> not getting it
[03:41] <netzsooc> yes mohamed
[03:41] <netzsooc> they are as should be
[03:41] <skullboy> edbain, lets approch this differently is there a way to get all the backtrack tools into ubuntu 10.10
[03:41] <FredFlinstone> and win box access it !
[03:42] <edbian> skullboy, Oh almost definitely.  What tools are they offering?
[03:42] <FredFlinstone> sacarlson,  and the win box accessed it !
[03:42] <edbian> skullboy, I bet you $10 that 90% of them are in the Ubuntu repos.
[03:42] <netzsooc> skullboy yes, you can...
[03:42] <sacarlson> FredFlinstone: is that a good thing?
[03:42] <FredFlinstone> sacarlson,  which tells us?
[03:42] <mohamed> try to install onther version of it and i think it'll solved
[03:42] <nsd> nvm I think I may seem y problem
[03:42] <edbian> skullboy, And if they're open source you literally can install ALL of them.
[03:42] <glitchd> itaylor57, ok ill try it, i hope it works, ill let u know if it doesnt
[03:42] <sacarlson> FredFlinstone: that we now need to look at how we mount you ntfs disk
[03:42] <mohamed> any programmer here ?
[03:42] <netzsooc> mohamed I don't know where to get another version
[03:42] <FredFlinstone> that was an access from a non ok user
[03:43] <skullboy> edbain, mostly pen testing apps
[03:43] <Nismine> sacarlson: The hello world script worked.
[03:43] <mohamed> www.download.com
[03:43] <edbian> skullboy, pen testing?  You mean usb drive testing?
[03:43] <mohamed> u can find it on it
[03:43] <netzsooc> thankyou mohamed
[03:43] <sacarlson> Nismine: ok so ruby sounds like it's installed ok,  what error do you see on your other script
[03:43] <FredFlinstone> sacarlson, how we mount, beats me
[03:43] <mohamed> u welcome
[03:43] <netzsooc> skullboy: you can, but there is no point on doing that
[03:43] <netzsooc> BackTrack is already Debian Based
[03:44] <skullboy> edbain, no hacking apps but i hack people legally its my job
[03:44] <skullboy> edbain, well that and programming
[03:44] <edbian> skullboy, Name a hacking app and I can tell you how to install it in Ubuntu (including some windows apps)
[03:44] <itaylor57> skullboy: my job is stopping people like you :>)
[03:44] <rww> edbian: "pen"'s short for penetration
[03:44] <edbian> rww, Thanks
[03:45] <edbian> skullboy, My job is studying people like you
[03:45] <Nismine> sacarlson: It doesn't give me any error, it's just not happening...
[03:45] <skullboy> itaylor57, we hack to test vanerbillitys to make tech safer
[03:45] <greezmunkey> edbian: Psychiatrist?
[03:45] <sacarlson> Nismine: what is it we expect to happen?
[03:45] <UnholyTerror> skullboy, what happend?
[03:46] <edbian> greezmunkey, You're way off.  Computer Science student (I'm taking adv. network security next semester)
[03:46] <sprung> skullboy, vulnerabilities?
[03:46] <Nismine> sacarlson: It is supposed to install Gyazo I guess.
[03:46] <sacarlson> Nismine: if a keystroke is suposed to triger it add prints to see what it's doing
[03:46] <netzsooc> skullboy you can try sudo apt-get app in ubuntu
[03:46] <maco> netzsooc: missed a word in that command
[03:46] <netzsooc> skullboy you can try sudo apt-get install app in ubuntu
[03:46] <netzsooc> thanx maco
[03:46] <sacarlson> Nismine: I glanced at it didn't install anything
[03:46] <FredFlinstone> sacarlson, how we mount, beats me, how do i check that?
[03:47] <netzsooc> (4:46 am here, not that bright)
[03:47] <skullboy> sprung, yea so we can improve security
[03:47] <tbrock> hey guys, what is the most text-mate like editor out there for ubuntu that works well in gnome
[03:47] <sprung> skullboy, sorry, you just spelled it so strangely :)
[03:47] <sacarlson> FredFlinstone: I'm reasearching how to mount with a forced user for ntfs but I havn't found it yet
[03:47] <dabukalam> tbrock: emacs?
[03:47] <netzsooc> skullboy, why you want to install those apps in ubuntu? if you have already BackTrack?
[03:47] <FredFlinstone> i see, thanks
[03:47] <glitchd> wth........i cannot for the life of me get flash to work in chrome.
[03:47] <Nismine> sacarlson: I suppose it is broken then. Thanks a lot for the help anyway.
[03:47] <glitchd> please help
[03:48] <skullboy> unholyterror, some how i installed it as a live distso on my internal
[03:48] <UnholyTerror> skullboy, what happend?
[03:48] <skullboy> unholyterror, some how i installed it as a live distso on my internal
[03:48] <UnholyTerror> ;) OMG!
[03:48] <glitchd> some body, anybody
[03:48] <UnholyTerror> skullboy, did you get it straightened out?
[03:48] <glitchd> help please
[03:48] <skullboy> netzooc, i hate kde
[03:49] <edbian> glitchd, What's the problem?  Can't help to we know that
[03:49] <idea4good> i select the partition to install linux  though fdisk -l shows it linux file system the gui install window show it as unknown type and wants tme to change to a know file system
[03:49] <skullboy> unholyterror, yea thx 4 the help
[03:49] <idea4good> and it gives following list of options
[03:49] <idea4good> http://pastebin.com/wYPd9RQZ
[03:49] <skullboy> sprung, sorry bout my spelling i need to get to bed my spellings worse when im tired
[03:50] <glitchd> edbian, i cant for the life or luck of me get flash to work in chromium
[03:50] <netzsooc> skullboy I think it is easier to get your favorite windows manager for backtrack, thoug if you are pentesting I don't know why you need X
[03:50] <Nismine> By the way guys, how normal is it that after installing ubuntu on my 500GB hdd I only have 421GB left? It was a clean install.
[03:50] <edbian> glitchd, Ha ha, no worries. Does flash work in another browser?
[03:50] <sacarlson> FredFlinstone: to start how is it presently mounted   check with the command mount  and pastebin that to us
[03:50] <UnholyTerror> glitchd, are you running it with --enable-plugins?
[03:50] <glitchd> edbian, yes, firefox
[03:50] <skullboy> netzooc, i dont
[03:50] <glitchd> UnholyTerror, yes i AM
[03:51] <jrib> Nismine: can you pastebin the output of « df -h »?
[03:51] <_PI_> problems with ubuntu cd hanging on setup?
[03:51] <edbian> glitchd, Do you have more than one flash player installed?  Which flash player are you using?
[03:51] <netzsooc> Nismine 500 gb are actually not 500 gb
[03:51] <_PI_> anyone?
[03:51] <UnholyTerror> glitchd, what does it do?
[03:51] <skullboy> gotta drop out here bye
[03:51] <Nismine> jrib: I don't know how to do it. Can you help me?
[03:51] <glitchd> edbian, i do not believe so
[03:51] <netzsooc> anyway, skullboy I think it would be faster to install gnome in backtrack
[03:52] <edbian> glitchd, Search 'flash' in synaptic.  Make sure you only have 1 flash player.
[03:52] <Nismine> netzsooc: I got at least 480GB with windows installed
[03:52] <glitchd> UnholyTerror, when i go to youtube, or any other site that has a flash type applet, i jus get a grey/black box
[03:52] <edbian> glitchd, When you are restarting chromium make SURE the process is ending each time.
[03:52] <UnholyTerror> glitchd, did you try to  press play?
[03:52] <jrib> Nismine: open Applications -> Accessories -> Terminal and type « df -h » without the guillemets
[03:52] <grg27> I have a quick quistion? Can u boot up back into windows 7 even through ubuntu is on your flash drive
[03:52] <glitchd> UnholyTerror, there are no buttons, jus a grey box, although, i get the audio
[03:53] <glitchd> edbian, I did
[03:53] <UnholyTerror> glitchd, what kind of computer/graphics?
[03:53] <grg27> I have a quick quistion? Can u boot up back into windows 7 even through ubuntu is on your flash driv
[03:53] <edbian> glitchd, Which package is installed?
[03:53] <glitchd> edbian, flashplugin-nonfree.....flashplugin-installer
[03:53] <UnholyTerror> glitchd, and which version of flash?

[03:54] <edbian> glitchd, You restarted chromium I assume?
[03:54] <edbian> glitchd, How did you install chromium?
[03:54] <glitchd> UnholyTerror, i have  dell n5010  i5 processor and 8 gigs of ram, no clue on the graphics card tho
[03:54] <glitchd> edbian, yes
[03:54] <glitchd> edbian, i dont exactly remember
[03:54] <UnholyTerror> glitchd, and which version of flash?
[03:54] <glitchd> UnholyTerror, i would assume its version 10
[03:55] <overrider> in ubuntu, do i have to use groupmod usermod etc, or can i type directly into /etc/group to add my users to groups?
[03:55] <jrib> Nismine: your hard drive has a size of 448G and ubuntu is using 8.5 of those
[03:55] <UnholyTerror> you could try to d/l straight from adobe...
[03:55] <dfhsd> edbian: RTFM.
[03:55] <dfhsd> & forget flah-virus
[03:55] <glitchd> UnholyTerror, i did, several times already
[03:55] <jrib> overrider: you can do all of those things.  Or just use "adduser" and "deluser" which are probably easier and less error-prone
[03:55] <edbian> dfhsd, Pardon me?
[03:56] <rww> !rtfm | dfhsd
[03:56] <Nismine> jrib: I don't get it. I got more than that with windows. Never mind. Thanks jrib.
[03:56] <dfhsd> & forget adobes flash-virus. it's closed source
[03:56] <jrib> Nismine: how much more?
[03:56] <_PI_> I think I have bad sectors on the drive, but can't fix them
[03:56] <overrider> jrib: yes but say i want to add a user to a group, can i just add him to the right group in /etc/group or do i have to use the tool for it? im worried the tool may update some other files that i dont know about
[03:56] <edbian> glitchd, What version of Ubuntu is this?
[03:56] <glitchd> UnholyTerror, ive also done this before i installed each time sudo apt-get purge adobe-flashplugin
[03:56] <glitchd> edbian, 10.04
[03:56] <FredFlinstone> http://pastebin.com/iCG6yW5P
[03:57] <FredFlinstone> sacarlson, http://pastebin.com/iCG6yW5P
[03:57] <glitchd> edbian, it worked in the past, then one day it just stopped working
[03:57] <_PI_> my boot cd hangs on *Setting sensors limits
[03:57] <Nismine> jrib: I used to have at least 450 free, I think even more.
[03:57] <jrib> overrider: like I said, you can just edit /etc/group if you want, but I'd suggest you use adduser/deluser
[03:57] <edbian> glitchd, Does youtube work?  What site are you testing on?
[03:57] <glitchd> edbian, in ff only
[03:57] <glitchd> edbian, i am becoming more of a chromium user now
[03:57] <jrib> Nismine: well you probably have a swap partition too which occupies some space.
[03:57] <edbian> glitchd, sure.  What site are you testing on?
[03:57] <glitchd> edbian, so i want to get it to work in that
[03:58] <glitchd> edbian, youtube
[03:58] <jrib> Nismine: in any case, the actual files are only occupying 8.5G of space
[03:58] <Mene-Mene> I've been trying to get sound working for a while. I'm in Ubuntu 10.10 on an onboard sound card on a Gigabyte GA-h55m-ud2h. I've checked the realtek drivers but all their servers require a login, any suggestions for help?
[03:58] <UnholyTerror> glitchd, What does Menui->About say?
[03:58] <Nismine> jrib: Yeah, that is what I suspected but didn't know how to know for sure. Thanks. The space will hopefuly not be a problem for now.
[03:59] <edbian> glitchd, yes, Menu -> About
[03:59] <rigved> is it possible to increase the swap space after installing ubuntu 10.04?
[03:59] <jrib> Nismine: should be plenty :)
[03:59] <glitchd> UnholyTerror, where do i type that in at?
[03:59] <crimsun> rigved: yes, if you have room to expand.
[03:59] <sacarlson> FredFlinstone: ok and what is it we are trying to share of all these partitions?
[03:59] <Gulfstream> My log out and shut down and restart options have disappeared. How do I fix this?
[03:59] <jrib> rigved: you could shrink/enlarge the partition or just use a swap file
[03:59] <UnholyTerror> Google Chrome->About
[03:59] <glitchd> UnholyTerror,  or where do i access that?
[03:59] <UnholyTerror> chrome menu
[04:00] <rigved> crimsun: ok. via disk utility, right?
[04:00] <glitchd> UnholyTerror,  chromium 8.0.552.215 (67652) Ubuntu 10.04
[04:00] <edbian> glitchd, sudo apt-get reinstall flash-plugin-nonfree
[04:00] <edbian> glitchd, Worth a shot ;)
[04:00] <FredFlinstone> sacarlson, all of them
[04:00] <crimsun> rigved: sure, or via another utility
[04:00] <UnholyTerror> edbian, chrome should come with flash built in....
[04:00] <FredFlinstone> sdb1 is all i have tried so far
[04:00] <sacarlson> FredFlinstone: you want to share your root?
[04:00] <glitchd> edbian, invalid operation
[04:01] <FredFlinstone> sacarlson, all of the NTFS
[04:01] <sacarlson> FredFlinstone: whitch of these are ntfs?
[04:01] <FredFlinstone> all of them but 1
[04:01] <sacarlson> FredFlinstone: just pick one so we have something to work on
[04:01] <glitchd> edbian, so i tried this sudo apt-get install flashplugin-nonfree, and it says this flashplugin-nonfree is already the newest version.
[04:02] <FredFlinstone> backups
[04:02] <rigved> crimsun: one more thing. should it shrink a ntfs partition via windows or ubuntu? i had heard that the ubuntu ntfs drivers are not as robust as the windows ones
[04:02] <FredFlinstone> sdb1`
[04:02] <UnholyTerror> glitchd, in the url bar type: chrome://plugins
[04:02] <Gulfstream> The options that include show down (upper right part of screen) have changed/disappeared. How do I get to the shut down/restart options?
[04:02] <edbian> glitchd, sudo aptitude reinstall flashplugin-nonfree     (I want it to install again since I know it's already installed)
[04:02] <rww> edbian: fyi, -nonfree is a transition package in newer versions of ubuntu. I suspect you'd want flashplugin-installer instead
[04:03] <rigved> edbian: sudo apt-get install --reinstall flashplugin-nonfree
[04:03] <FredFlinstone> sacarlson,  backups - sdb1 - should be working from what i have tread
[04:03] <FredFlinstone> sacarlson,  backups - sdb1 - should be working from what i have read
[04:03] <edbian> glitchd, see what rigved said?
[04:03] <FredFlinstone> damn i cant type i shoudl just give up
[04:03] <edbian> rww rigved Thanks
[04:03] <rigved> edbian: it's just another way to do the same thing. you are welcome
[04:04] <sacarlson> FredFlinstone: ok and it seems I must have lost or never seen your file /etc/samba/smb.conf  so pastebin that too
[04:04] <glitchd> edbian, says this "You need to upgrade your Adobe Flash Player to watch this video.
[04:04] <glitchd> Download it from Adobe."
[04:04] <hipitihop> Can someone enlighten me as to why it appears impossible to play standard definition rented DVD's ? the disc mounts, and even the title is shown, but nothing can actually play it, generally just complaining about not being able to read source
[04:04] <Broichen> For flash can't you just utilize the normal Software Packaging?
[04:04] <glitchd> edbian, and i have done that already, several times tonigth
[04:04] <glitchd> tonight
[04:04] <edbian> glitchd, yeah, the package does that for you much easier
[04:05] <edbian> glitchd, You tried what?  Going to the website manually or reinstalling using the command I gave?
[04:05] <glitchd> edbian, umm, both actually
[04:05] <rww> hipitihop: Have you installed libdvdcss? https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats/PlayingDVDs
[04:05] <Broichen> Remember that after the install you have to restart your web browser.
[04:05] <FredFlinstone> sacarlson, http://pastebin.com/C7Kb6usS
[04:05] <edbian> glitchd, You should only have 1 version of flash player installed, that's almost def the problem.  When you have more than 1 installed it gets all sorts of confused
[04:06] <rigved> glitchd: oh that's not fixable in ubuntu x86_x64. you need to have ubuntu x86 to view those videos
[04:06] <s093294> It should not be needed to call dhclient eth0 at each boot right ? eth0 dont get any ip before i do dhclient eth0 after a restart, why is this=
[04:06] <glitchd> edbian, and throughout this all, each time i either get the grey box with audio or i get told that i need to upgrade my flash player and to go to the site and get it
[04:06] <Nismine> sacarlson: Still there?
[04:06] <edbian> glitchd, I understand that it's confusing.
[04:06] <sacarlson> Nismine: yes
[04:06] <edbian> glitchd, To be honest this is how you get flash working: you install flashplugin-installer    That's it.
[04:06] <glitchd> rigved, i am using a 32 bit ubuntu
[04:06] <Nismine> I managed to make it work, I needed a program called imagemagick.
[04:06] <edbian> glitchd, There is the small issue that sometimes you have to make sure there aren't any other versions installed.
[04:07] <Nismine> It's working now.
[04:07] <glitchd> edbian, then idk what could be the problem then
[04:07] <Nismine> Sweet.
[04:07] <hipitihop> rww, checking...
[04:07] <edbian> glitchd, Perhaps try running chromium from the term and check for errors when you go to youtube.
[04:07] <wrd> has anybody here tried lightspark from ppa with fallback gnash? if so, how is the experience? does youtube and vimeo work (flawless)?
[04:07] <dfhsd> Flood bot signature detected at this address, sorry ;-)
[04:07] <edbian> glitchd, Is this machine 64bit?
[04:07] <Broichen> Glitchd - Go to your Software centre and uninstall Adobe Flash Player.
[04:07] <rigved> should i shrink a ntfs partition via windows or ubuntu? i had heard that the ubuntu ntfs drivers are not as robust as the windows ones
[04:08] <Broichen> Rig - if you shring a partition via windows it may unusable in Ubunto and vise versa.
[04:08] <edbian> rigved, That's more about reading / writing.  The partition editor in Ubuntu is very good.
[04:08] <adgautam> « /win 1 »
[04:08] <sacarlson> FredFlinstone: can you cd /media/Backup;  and ls -l  to see what the files are setup as user and group?
[04:08] <rww> rigved: I'd use Windows, if only because Windows' NTFS resizer is a lot faster.
[04:08] <glitchd> edbian, no its 32 bit
[04:08] <sacarlson> Nismine: cool
[04:09] <rigved> Broichen, edbian, rww: ok. thanx. :)
[04:09] <Nismine> sacarlson: Thank you for your help. It actually seems pretty simple now.
[04:09] <FredFlinstone> sounds like DOS, didnt work
[04:09] <FredFlinstone> bash: cd: /media/Backup: No such file or directory
[04:09] <glitchd> Broichen, well edbian told me to run it in teminal and see the out put
[04:10] <sacarlson> FredFlinstone: try sudo -i and try again
[04:10] <glitchd> Broichen, so i did, do u want to look at the output at all?
[04:10] <setg> hello
[04:10] <Broichen> Sure, I sent you a private message
[04:10] <Gulfstream> is it possible to play movies like Iron Man in Ubuntu?
[04:11] <FredFlinstone> what was that supposed to do, same result - -bash: cd: /media/Backup: No such file or directory
[04:11] <sacarlson> FredFlinstone: are you superuser now?
[04:11] <FredFlinstone> is that the #?
[04:11] <FredFlinstone> says root, so i guess so
[04:12] <Datz> Gulfstream: yes
[04:12] <sacarlson> FredFlinstone: I'm not the best speller read between the lines what is in dir /media
[04:12] <Gulfstream> Datz: How do I play movies on DVD such as Iron Man in Ubuntu?
[04:12] <Datz> Gulfstream: what have you tried?
[04:13] <Gulfstream> Datz: I have installed ubuntu-restricted-extras
[04:13] <ChaosPsycheX> what does "devadm is not permitted while udev is uncofigured" mean when trying to boot into ubuntu
[04:13] <FredFlinstone> saca ok looks proper, the  fiels are the right ones under BACKUPS (case was wrong)
[04:13] <FredFlinstone> sacarlson,  ok looks proper, the  fiels are the right ones under BACKUPS (case was wrong)
[04:14] <sacarlson> FredFlinstone: and with ls -l?
[04:14] <Datz> Gulfstream: I'd assume it'd play in "Move Player"
[04:14] <Datz> Movie*
[04:14] <FredFlinstone> will i ever get used to case matters?
[04:14] <Gulfstream> Datz: let em try the DVD again then...
[04:14] <Gulfstream> see what happens
[04:14] <Datz> Gulfstream: myself, I'd probably use VLC media player
[04:15] <FredFlinstone> sacarlson, ls shows waht it should
[04:15] <FredFlinstone> and size matters too :)
[04:15] <sacarlson> FredFlinstone: I have no idea what it should be,  as I said I need to know who owns the files
[04:16] <FredFlinstone> sacarlson, sorry i am getting real tired
[04:16] <FredFlinstone> all root
[04:16] <adgautam> hello
[04:16] <sacarlson> FredFlinstone: and what group are they under so give us one line with one file in it
[04:16] <Gulfstream> Datz: "An error occured Could not read from resource."
[04:16] <FredFlinstone> drwxrwxrwx 1 root root  4096 2010-10-12 01:29 1-stuff
[04:16] <sacarlson> FredFlinstone: ok root,  well that won't work now will it
[04:17] <adgautam> can anyone help me on how to join a channel
[04:17] <ChaosPsycheX> what does "devadm is not permitted while udev is uncofigured" mean when trying to boot into ubuntu
[04:17] <sacarlson> FredFlinstone: and what is the mask on the files?
[04:17] <FredFlinstone> sacarlson, i plan to read getting started with 10.04
[04:17] <sacarlson> FredFlinstone: none of this would be needed if it was a normal ext4 file system
[04:17] <FredFlinstone> sacarlson, i do not understand that last one
[04:18] <UnholyTerror> glitchd, what's the status?
[04:18] <sacarlson> FredFlinstone: I just want a pastebin  of ls -l
[04:18] <FredFlinstone> when i know lnux better, they all will be, windoze and ntfs sucks
[04:18] <sacarlson> FredFlinstone: since your not giveing me what i need to know
[04:18] <aidrocsid> anyone tried ctaclysm with wine yet?
[04:18] <FredFlinstone> ok

[04:23] <FredFlinstone> that is good?
[04:23] <FredFlinstone> ah i see
[04:23] <sacarlson> FredFlinstone: yes it's good,  ls -l test.txt  to see who owns it
[04:23] <FredFlinstone> its there
[04:23] <netbeast> can anyone help with a webcamera problem cant get creative pc cam300 to work
[04:24] <FredFlinstone> fred seems to own all
[04:24] <hipitihop> rww, you are a legend, many thanks
[04:24] <sacarlson> FredFlinstone: paist that line of your test.txt   can't be user all
[04:24] <Gulfstream> rww: looks like it will work!
[04:25] <Gulfstream> rww: it works! thanks!
[04:25] <sacarlson> FredFlinstone: the line from that ls -l  with test.txt in it  can I see that?
[04:25] <FredFlinstone> oh man i am in the wrong place
[04:26] <FredFlinstone> hang on
[04:26] <glitchd> UnholyTerror, still not working.
[04:26] <Hilikus> how can i restart X?
[04:26] <UnholyTerror> glitchd, you running chromium or google chrome?
[04:26] <FredFlinstone> -rwxrwxrwx 1 root root 0 2010-12-16 00:26 test.txt
[04:27] <bonjoyee>  Hilikus: sudo service gdm restart
[04:27] <sacarlson> FredFlinstone: ok well it is writeable so the only error I see so far is you have the wrong path in your smb.conf file
[04:28] <UnholyTerror> Hilikus, CTRL-ALT-BACKSPACE if enabled in System->Preferences->Keyboard->Layout->Options
[04:28] <FredFlinstone> sacarlson, http://pastebin.com/ikBm7c4Y
[04:28] <UnholyTerror> glitchd, you running chromium or google chrome?
[04:28] <FredFlinstone> wrong path?
[04:28] <sacarlson> FredFlinstone: I see this path = /media/sdb1  and it seems it should be something like path= /media/BACKUP
[04:29] <Hilikus> bonjoyee: i don't use gnome or any desktop manager
[04:29] <sacarlson> FredFlinstone: also the forceuser and forcegroup seems to not match what is forced into you ntfs file system,
[04:29] <FredFlinstone> ah, yeah i was asking about that earlier, either here in in the beginner chan
[04:30] <sacarlson> FredFlinstone: so seems to be a breach in security but you should set forceuser and forcegroup=root
[04:30] <FredFlinstone> path i get, please explain the rest
[04:30] <sacarlson> FredFlinstone: try just change the path and see what it does
[04:31] <sacarlson> FredFlinstone:  after the change in that file then restart samba  I think with sudo /etc/init.d/smbd restart
[04:31] <netbeast> i hate this one thing i cant get to work webcamera
[04:31] <sacarlson> ok next victum

[04:32] <clu3> hi, i wanna run windows on my ubuntu box, sometimes. Which virtualization software should i install?
[04:33] <netbeast> wine right
[04:33] <ejv> clu3: vmware, kvm, virtualbox, etc, for full blown virtualization solutions
[04:33] <xangua> clu3: virtualbox¿ the one you want
[04:33] <gogeta> clu3: the one from virtulbox website has usb support
[04:33] <FredFlinstone> ]1m
[04:33] <UnholyTerror> clu3, vmware or virtualbox.
[04:33] <bonjoyee> clu3: vbox works well for me too
[04:33] <clu3> ok, thanks guys, is vbox same as virtual box?
[04:34] <bonjoyee> yes
[04:34] <maco> clu3: yes, just an abbreviation
[04:34] <ejv> freenode needs a cursing room where i can just vent when computer stuff breaks...
[04:34] <OvermindDL1> Greetings, a question, I have a PC with Windows XP on one drive, but the boot partition is on a different drive, I install Ubuntu to dual-boot on to a third drive, but grub appears to be installing onto the Windows XP drive instead of the second drive which is where the BIOS checks for the boot partition.  Technically the Windows XP drive is hd0, the second is hd1, and Ubuntu is on hd2, but the BIOS will only boot off of 
[04:34] <clu3> okie, you guys are so helpful. Thanks a lot!!!
[04:34] <FredFlinstone> sudo: /etc/init.d/samba: command not found
[04:34] <bonjoyee> get it from http://virtualbox.org
[04:34] <FredFlinstone> how do i restart samba?
[04:34] <rigved> ejv: there ot if you like
[04:34] <OvermindDL1> Or should I just do it manually?
[04:35] <bonjoyee> FredFlinstone: sudo service smbd restart
[04:35] <Fezzler> You Tube video is slow
[04:35] <Fezzler> And i have a graphics card
[04:35] <gogeta> OvermindDL1: tell grub to install to the other drive. you can do it with manule partation in the installer
[04:35] <FredFlinstone> sacarlson, still no access
[04:35] <OvermindDL1> gogeta:  Hmm, I saw where to set partitions but not what to mark as the boot drive, let me check again...
[04:35] <gogeta> OvermindDL1: or tell bios to look at the other drive
[04:36] <gogeta> OvermindDL1: its on the bottem
[04:36] <OvermindDL1> gogeta:  I can tell the BIOS to do that, but hd0 is not bootable, whether a boot partition is installed or not, it is not quite a 'real' drive in the conventional sense
[04:36] <bonjoyee> FredFlinstone: whats the output of "groups" command
[04:37] <rigved> OvermindDL1: safest bet is to remove the windows drive and install. then when you are done, plug in the windows drive later and run sudo update-grub from the ubuntu terminal
[04:37] <xangua> Fezzler: define slow, ps. flash sucks in linux
[04:37] <gogeta> OvermindDL1: bootable is just a partation flage justadd it
[04:37] <sacarlson> FredFlinstone: try change the forceuser=root forcegroup=root and restart again
[04:37] <UnholyTerror> OvermindDL1, what rigved said... and #grub
[04:38] <OvermindDL1> rigved:  Ah, right, how obvious...  Thanks.
[04:38] <OvermindDL1> gogeta:  This drive still has issued, it is... odd..  ;-)
[04:38] <rigved> OvermindDL1: you are welcome
[04:38] <gogeta> OvermindDL1: but you can also change where grub goes so you can do eyhter

[04:39] <Fezzler> xangua>> does play at low res 250
[04:39] <OvermindDL1> gogeta:  Already installed anyway, just the bios is not booting it due to looking on wrong drive.
[04:39] <FredFlinstone> sacarlson, ok what file is hat?
[04:39] <gogeta> OvermindDL1: so flage the drive bootable tell bioss to look there
[04:39] <Some_Person> Is there a simple tool I can use to combine two images together (one above the other)? I need to do this for like 10 images
[04:40] <sacarlson> FredFlinstone: the same file /etc/samba/smb.conf
[04:40] <gogeta> OvermindDL1: bootable is a simple partation option
[04:40] <OvermindDL1> gogeta: Anytime I do that however things kind of die...
[04:40] <gogeta> OvermindDL1: heh
[04:40] <OvermindDL1> Pretty sure the drive is dieing...
[04:41] <gogeta> OvermindDL1: or has a bad boot sector yeasighn of bad drive
[04:41] <FredFlinstone> sacarlson, that did it thanks a big bunch, wish i understood it, i was fred in 10.04 and it worked, oh well
[04:41] <FredFlinstone> sacarlson, you rock :)
[04:43] <sacarlson> FredFlinstone: cool
[04:48] <CyberCod> are there any SSH ninja's hanging around?  I have a pretty hard question
[04:48] <mateothegreat> ?!
[04:48] <rww> CyberCod: best to just ask it and see if anyone replies
[04:48] <izinucs> CyberCod: throw it out there.. someone might know the answer
[04:48] <Maletor> CyberCod: IRC rule number 42458: just ask
[04:49] <Maletor> LOL ^^
[04:49] <Ardethian> why can't i see users list on xChat? o.o
[04:50] <FredFlinstone> sacarlson, did 3 more they work, now how about getting sharing the other way from xp to linux? is there a good webpage for that?
[04:50] <CyberCod> I'm trying to figure out how to start an application on Ubuntu by using a script on an Android phone.  I don't want the app to run in the ssh terminal, I want it to start and then be able to close the terminal and the program (Boxee) continue running.  I don't want the application to display on the phone, I want it to go to the Xserver of the sshd host.
[04:50] <FredFlinstone> sacarlson, is this good? https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MountWindowsSharesPermanently
[04:50] <mateothegreat> Use nohup
[04:51] <Maletor> CrazyCod: for execution of just one line of code you are still gonna want to use shs
[04:51] <Maletor> ssh&
[04:51] <CyberCod> Maletor: not sure I understand
[04:52] <Maletor> ssh yourmachine.com boxee &
[04:52] <gogeta> CyberCod: well on a pc ctrl-d etaches the app from you leaving it running on logout
[04:52] <izinucs> CyberCod: sshd host being on the remote machine away from the android phone? If so the host should also be running screen after you ssh in but before you start boxee.. that way when you "detach" it will continue to run
[04:52] <FredFlinstone> perhaps someone else knows?  i bugged sacarlson a lot :)
[04:52] <rigved> CyberCod: you can only connect via ssh (if you want to run something on the machine)
[04:52] <sparky44> need help getting rid of a warning on my tool bar says update info is out of date
[04:52] <CyberCod> will a gui app like Boxee run in screen?
[04:53] <sparky44> i click on it and it looks for updates but dose not find one
[04:53] <gogeta> CyberCod: with x11 forwaring yes ssh -X
[04:53] <CyberCod> gogeta  I don't want it to display on the phone
[04:53] <tushar> tushar
[04:53] <izinucs> CyberCod: do you mean will a gui app run in screen on the host ssh machine or on the android?
[04:53] <tushar> hi i want help
[04:53] <bonjoyee> CyberCod: with proper DISPLAY variable set..it will run on ubuntu
[04:54] <CyberCod> izinucs: gui running on the host ubuntu machine
[04:54] <rigved> !question | tushar
[04:54] <gogeta> CyberCod: then detach it so you can logout without closin it
[04:54] <gogeta> CyberCod: you can reattack it later if you whant
[04:54] <gogeta> atach
[04:55] <tushar> kubuntu has actvated by me n i m not able to keep the size of window minimum how is it possible
[04:55] <CyberCod> I'm hoping to make a one-button app starter
[04:55] <izinucs> CyberCod: yes.. screen is just like terminal.. what you get when you ssh in.. it just allows you to detach remotely and still have the app running.. you'll be able to reattach where you left off as well.. that's how I'm on irc right now. ssh to my server running screen and irssi.
[04:55] <AbhiJit> hi
[04:55] <izinucs> !screen | CyberCod
[04:55] <tushar> rigved can u help me
[04:56] <jyj> hello all, it is just  a test, i from china
[04:56] <CyberCod> izinucs: I"m familiar with using screen for command line apps, but I didn't think it worked for graphical apps... such as Boxee which is a media center
[04:56] <CyberCod> jyj: hello tester from china
[04:56] <gogeta> jyj: failed!
[04:56] <izinucs> CyberCod: sure.. you can start any gui app from the cli.. so there shouldn't be any difference
[04:56] <CyberCod> will attempt it
[04:56] <jyj> it's my first IRC travel
[04:56] <rigved> tushar: not sure if i don't know your question. ask it here in the channel and someone may be able to help you (including me!)
[04:56] <tushar> any application when started appears in full screen
[04:56] <CyberCod> any tips on proper usage of the DISPLAY variable?
[04:57] <izinucs> CyberCod: you're not attempting to display it remotely so you won't need to mess with that.
[04:57] <FredFlinstone> ok according to that page this is supposed to work, but it dont -  //pc/partition	/media/partition	cifs	credentials=/home/fred/.smbcredentials,iocharset=utf8,file_mode=0777,dir_mode=0777	0	0
[04:57] <tushar> how the system got upgraded to kubuntu from ubuntu
[04:57] <FredFlinstone> anyone?
[04:58] <tushar> by which application
[04:58] <gogeta> izinucs: whont it jjust say cant find x and crash if it doesent have a display to go to
[04:58] <jyj>  hello all, it is just  a test, i am from china
[04:58] <gogeta> izinucs: guess that only aplys to remote
[04:58] <izinucs> gogeta: he's only looking to start boxee remotely.. not display it remotely
[04:58] <jyj> it is my first IRC travel.
[04:59] <rigved> !ot | jyj
[04:59] <gogeta> izinucs: i knoe but i dont think it will start via ssh without a display set
[04:59] <rigved> lol
[04:59] <rigved> tushar: what did you install last?
[04:59] <izinucs> gogeta: that might be.. humm.. only one way to find out :)
[04:59] <gladson> I am using dell vostro 1320.. cannot find wireless networks.. anybody help ??
[05:00] <gladson> my laptop doesnt detect wireless network around
[05:00] <rigved> gladson: which ubuntu version? 10.10?
[05:00] <jyj> to <gladson>: you can delete /etc/network/interfaces, and restart
[05:00] <gladson> rigved, yeah
[05:01] <gladson> jyj, let me try
[05:01] <paulobear> Hi folks - does anyone have experience with bootp and NFS mounting root file systems?
[05:01] <Ardethian> o_O
[05:01] <Ardethian> O_O
[05:03] <gladson> jyj, shal i delete the contents over there or the file ?
[05:03] <sacarlson> paulobear: bootp?  is that like pxeboot?
[05:03] <gladson> rigved, yeah 10.10
[05:03] <Spark> hmm
[05:03] <Spark> maverick seems to be using nouveau by default
[05:03] <paulobear> yes, sacarlson, pxelinux booting.
[05:03] <Spark> even for the console
[05:03] <Spark> unfortuntely, it doesn't support my gpu
[05:03] <Spark> rendering the whole machine unusable
[05:03] <gogeta> sacarlson: isnt bottp part or pxe
[05:03] <gogeta> of
[05:03] <sacarlson> paulobear: I've done that
[05:03] <Spark> how do i make it use basic vga instead
[05:04] <jyj> mv /etc/network/interfaces   /etc/network/interfaces.bck
[05:04] <paulobear> sacarlson: I'm getting an NFS error and fail when the client attempts to mount the root file system: unmatched host
[05:04] <gogeta> Spark you can try low gfx mode
[05:04] <Spark> what's that?
[05:04] <CyberCod> meh, no joy
[05:04] <gogeta> Spark assuming your talking live cd
[05:05] <Spark> no, this is the result of a distupgrade
[05:05] <gladson> jyj, i deleted /etc/network/interfaces :(
[05:05] <gladson> jyj, nwo what to do ?
[05:05] <Spark> after a certain point in the boot sequence, it starts using this thing and the screen goes black
[05:05] <gogeta> Spark you can invoke single mode install nivida drivers
[05:05] <CyberCod> ssh tv@192.168.3.118 "screen sh /opt/boxee/run-boxee-desktop"          whelp, that doesn't work
[05:05] <Spark> even in 'recovery mode' it does that
[05:05] <jyj> restart your computer now
[05:05] <gogeta> Spark single you can invoke command line
[05:05] <gladson> jyj, restarted
[05:06] <Spark> gogeta: what do you mean 'single'
[05:06] <gogeta> Spark no gui
[05:06] <sacarlson> paulobear: nfs error?  that's all you see?
[05:06] <Spark> i haven't seen such an option since the debian days
[05:06] <gogeta> Spark at grub ad single to the options
[05:06] <gogeta> add
[05:06] <Spark> to the kernel boot params?
[05:06] <gogeta> spark yes
[05:06] <gladson> jyj, yes done with restart.. now ??
[05:06] <paulobear> sacarlson: syslog says: Dec 15 18:59:28 taboul-ouradpa-vm mountd[2106]: refused mount request from 10.0.0.2 for /home/paulourada/timesys/atomus15w/rfs (/home/paulourada/timesys/atomus15w/rfs): unmatched host
[05:06] <sacarlson> paulobear: unmached host oh maybe you didn't setup your  export correctly
[05:06] <Spark> is this what replaces init=/bin/bash
[05:06] <gogeta> spark use the normal boot with single added
[05:07] <gogeta> Spark so you have rw acess
[05:07] <sacarlson> paulobear: lets see a pastebin of /etc/export
[05:07] <izinucs> Spark: you might need the more recent nvidia driver.. the easiest way to install it is to look for the PPA
[05:07] <gogeta> Spark then you should be able to apt-get the nivia drivers
[05:07] <Spark> it didn't accept 'single'
[05:07] <gogeta> izinucs: he has nevu
[05:07] <gladson> jyj, are you there ?
[05:07] <Spark> i need the developer drivers for nvidia
[05:07] <paulobear> pastebin?
[05:08] <Spark> and they refuse to isntall because the nouveau module is loaded
[05:08] <paulobear> sacarlson: pastebin?
[05:08] <dnivra> !pastebin | paulobear
[05:08] <izinucs> gogeta: everyone starts there. nevu is default.
[05:08] <Spark> i only managed to work that out by sshing into the laptop
[05:08] <gogeta> Spark it didnt accept single????
[05:08] <Spark> no
[05:08] <sacarlson> thanks dnivra
[05:08] <Spark> it just reboot instantaneously
[05:08] <jyj> sorry, i dont know how to express what i think
[05:08] <dnivra> sacarlson, no problem :)
[05:08] <jyj> my english is not good
[05:08] <izinucs> Spark: have you done a full upgrade yet.. update, upgrade, dist-upgrade ?
[05:08] <gladson> jyj, tell me what you wanna tell i will try
[05:08] <gogeta> Spark you put it in the kernel line
[05:08] <Spark> izinucs: yes, that's why i'm in this mmess
[05:09] <Spark> gogeta: didn't work
[05:09] <Spark> and neither does init=/bin/bash
[05:09] <clu3> hi, how can i figure out which ubuntu i'm using, Lcid or Maverrick?
[05:09] <Spark> it just reboots to bios
[05:09] <gogeta> Spark thats strange as hell
[05:09] <paulobear> sacarlson: http://paste.ubuntu.com/544298/
[05:09] <FredFlinstone> i give up tried both ways, why is no one answering in samba chan is it dead?
[05:09] <gogeta> Spark well i guess if you can ssh doit from there
[05:09] <Spark> do what though
[05:10] <Spark> problem with ssh is the wifi access point is really flakey and i have to set it up 'blind'
[05:10] <paulobear> ubotto: thanks!
[05:10] <gogeta> Spark instal nivida driver to get out of nevu
[05:10] <dnivra> paulobear, uBOTtu is a bot.
[05:10] <Spark> you can't install the nvidia driver
[05:10] <gladson> jyj, tell me in what language you want.. i will try google translate
[05:10] <Spark> wait you mean a package?
[05:10] <gogeta> Spark yea
[05:10] <sacarlson> paulobear: ok and what is the ip of the pxeboot client?
[05:10] <jyj> can you find the NetManager icon on the tray area?
[05:10] <gladson> jyj, tell the commands
[05:10] <rigved> !brain | paulobear
[05:10] <paulobear> sacarlson: 10.0.0.2
[05:10] <Spark> the package will replace nouveau? and then i overwrite it with my own nvidia kernel module and libraries
[05:11] <gladson> jyj, yeah
[05:11] <rednblue> am connecting to ubuntu server using FTP. but the folder or files that i create through ftp gets only read write permission. cant get execute permission automatically assigned
[05:11] <paulobear> sacarlson: client uses DHCP of course. dhcp3-server set up and running fine.
[05:11] <gogeta> Spark make shure you purge out nevu
[05:11] <gogeta> spark sudo apt-get --purge remove xserver-xorg-video-nouveau
[05:11] <Spark> the problem is, everything depends on nouveau
[05:11] <Spark> even things like mountall
[05:11] <Spark> iirc
[05:11] <jyj> click the icon,  and tell me what you see!
[05:12] <Spark> so if you don't have nouveau, you don't have a system
[05:12] <gogeta> Spark oook
[05:12] <jyj> 我说中文
[05:12] <sacarlson> paulobear: oh I think I had a problem at boot since it seems it needs two IP address so try open the IP to all instead of what you now have set
[05:12] <SwedeMike> rednblue: search for "umask" in the ftp server documentation, it should be settable.
[05:12] <Spark> mountall -> plymouth -> nouveau
[05:12] <gladson> jyj, vpn connections.. but now networks
[05:12] <gogeta> Spark sudo apt-get install nvidia-current nvidia-settings
[05:12] <sacarlson> paulobear: ya we should have a pastebin of that too dhcpd.conf
[05:13] <SwedeMike> !cn | jyj
[05:13] <paulobear> sacarlson: more 'splain, please? two IPs?
[05:13] <Spark> ah no i see what's going on
[05:13] <Spark> my laptop has a second pullout screen
[05:13] <sacarlson> paulobear: to start lets just see if the system can nfs mount after a system is already booted
[05:13] <Spark> and for some reason it's decided to make that the primary screen
[05:13] <gogeta> Spark heh
[05:14] <sacarlson> paulobear: I'll tell you about that 2 ip thing later.  lets just go one step at a time
[05:14] <gogeta> Spark well that should be easy to switch
[05:14] <gladson> jyj, well write in english. i will try to follow
[05:14] <Spark> it's using something like that old vesa console stuff that never worked propery
[05:14] <dnivra> gladson, jyj you two could continue in PM too.
[05:15] <gogeta> Spark man i wish i had your cash i knoe that labby expensiv heh
[05:15] <sacarlson> paulobear: can we boot this sytem or any other system to test the nfs mount?
[05:15] <gladson> dnivra, PM ?
[05:15] <paulobear> sacarlson: http://paste.ubuntu.com/544301/
[05:15] <Spark> i can install nvidia-current but it doesn't uninstall nouveau
[05:15] <gladson> anybody could please help me with my wireless network not detecting problem ?
[05:15] <dnivra> gladson, Private Message :).
[05:15] <Spark> maybe it will encourage it to not load the module though
[05:15] <demonspork> I used to manage my audio streams from a window that allowed me to specify which device any application would play the sound on. It has been a while and I can't figure out what program I used to do that with, but this is the same install of Ubuntu that I did that with
[05:16] <paulobear> sacarlson: sorry, busy pastebinning. No, unfortunately, the system is @ work, and is diskless in any case.
[05:16] <gogeta> Spark well can always blacklist by hand if you got a ui you can use the addiontal drivers tab
[05:16] <izinucs> gogeta: Spark might have to create a driver line in xorg.conf to activate it.
[05:16] <Spark> how do you blacklist it?
[05:16] <sacarlson> paulobear: that's ok that looks like it might work but lets test nfs mount on a already booted system
[05:16] <Spark> i only know how to blacklist modules during hibernate
[05:16] <gogeta> Spark heh will lets see how it behaves first
[05:17] <gogeta> Spark i think the new instalers do it for you
[05:17] <paulobear> sacarlson: so you want my to try it on my system here? somehow?
[05:17] <sacarlson> paulobear: yes do you have 2 systems that boot from something other than pxeboot?
[05:18] <soreau> Can anyone tell me which program is making the numpad control the mouse?
[05:18] <gladson> wireless card not detecting wireless network.. anybody help ?
[05:18] <paulobear> sacarlson: hmm... I could set up a cupla VirtualBox systems, I suppose?
[05:18] <gogeta> Spark it should be easy enough to switch your display back around
[05:18] <Spark> how
[05:18] <Spark> this isn't X
[05:18] <sacarlson> paulobear: wow that's a good idea
[05:18] <Spark> it's the console
[05:19] <gogeta> Spark oh
[05:19] <izinucs> soreau: try CTRL+insert.. there's a simple key combo to turn that off..
[05:19] <Spark> do you remember svgatextmode?
[05:19] <Spark> it's like that
[05:19] <sacarlson> paulobear: I've never even tried that
[05:19] <Spark> only more broken
[05:19] <gogeta> Spark lol
[05:19] <dnivra> gladson, perhaps the wireless network isn't in range of the wireless card?
[05:19] <Spark> ah now it's working
[05:19] <Spark> installing that nvidia module must have disabled it
[05:19] <soreau> izinucs: I already found it in gnome-keyboard-properties
[05:19] <gogeta> Spark what with your nivida drivers now installed :)
[05:19] <mohamed_> hii
[05:19] <paulobear> sacarlson: well, I just don't have the hardware laying around. take me a while to put it together. will you be around tomorrow?
[05:20] <sacarlson> paulobear: if you use virtualbox make sure you use the bridge ethernet mode
[05:20] <Spark> i now need to overwrite them with devdrivers from nvidia though
[05:20] <gladson> dnivra, people near and far from me are using perfectly
[05:20] <mohamed_> how i can install softwar
[05:20] <sacarlson> paulobear: ok
[05:20] <paulobear> sacarlson: yep.
[05:20] <gladson> dnivra, same is working in windows perfectly
[05:20] <dnivra> mohamed_, check out software center.
[05:20] <gogeta> Spark will laptops working lol you use dev drivers your on your own heh
[05:20] <mohamed_> site ?
[05:20] <Spark> it's needed for cuda unfortunately
[05:20] <mohamed_> gimme link
[05:20] <izinucs> Spark: look for the ppa.. it has the dev drivers and they will become the nvidia-current and will also update
[05:20] <paulobear> sacarlson: is there a better way to communicate tomorrow? I've been at it for 12 hours now. gotta get some shuteye
[05:21] <dnivra> mohamed_, it's an application installed in your ubuntu machine. Applications -> Software Center.
[05:21] <Hilikus> how can i see my nvidia driver version? i'm using 10.04
[05:21] <Spark> hm
[05:21] <sacarlson> paulobear: seem you don't need hardware just install virtualbox and setup another ubuntu system
[05:21] <mohamed_> thanks pal
[05:21] <rednblue> SwedeMike:  am new to ubuntu.. how do i set umask so that ge tread write execute permission for file and foldefrs created using ftp
[05:21] <sacarlson> paulobear: I'm always here  this system stays up 24/7
[05:21] <izinucs> Spark: google "ppa nvidia-vapau" and in that link will be the link for the driver ppa
[05:22] <dnivra> gladson, it doesn't detect the connection at all? do any other ubuntu systems have the same issue?
[05:22] <dnivra> !wireless | gladson
[05:22] <paulobear> sacarlson: ok, talk to you when I get it put together.
[05:22] <dnivra> gladson, check those out-pretty well documented.
[05:22] <Spark> ah it's another apt repository?
[05:22] <sacarlson> paulobear: my hours are like veried so just leave me a pm and I'll get back to you
[05:22] <Spark> i thought nvidia did not allow repackaging of their drivers
[05:22] <mohamed_> i can't find/ yahoo msn
[05:22] <paulobear> sacarlson: okey dokey
[05:22] <tkmr> on Ubuntu 10.10 server I have a script that starts Killing Floor server in a detached screen session, but when I run the script it says 'Must run suid root for multiuser support.' When I run the command without using the script, it works fine. What's going on here?
[05:23] <mohamed_> how i can get it ?
[05:23] <gogeta> Spark shh dont tell
[05:23] <dnivra> mohamed_, you mean chat client?
[05:23] <izinucs> Spark: they are packages as a script to install properly .. no modification of their drivers at all.
[05:23] <mohamed_> yup
[05:23] <gogeta> Spark just kiddin ppa are just bledding edge repos
[05:23] <dnivra> !info empathy | mohamed_
[05:23] <dnivra> !info pidgin | mohamed_
[05:23] <rednblue> sudo chfn -o "umask=002" daemon_username  SwedeMike
[05:23] <rednblue> ?
[05:23] <Spark> alright well stuff is working now
[05:23] <Spark> thanks
[05:24] <dnivra> mohamed_, empathy should be installed by default. Applications -> Internet -> Empathy
[05:25] <dnivra> !pidgin | mohamed_
[05:25] <rednblue> how do i use umask? :(
[05:25] <randy_> I install ubuntu 10.10 x86 using cd-rom ,but now I remove cd-rom,but when I boot OS,it show [    8.264543] ata3.00: status: { DRDY ERR } [    8.264592] ata3.00: error: { ABRT }
[05:26] <gogeta> randy_: bad cd or bad hardrive unfortanly
[05:26] <randy_> how can I do to solve that
[05:26] <gladson> dnivra, okei checking out
[05:26] <gogeta> randy_: let aim for bad iso
[05:26] <randy_> gogeta, I only use sata hard
[05:26] <gladson> any command to see wireless networks available ?
[05:27] <randy_> gladson, you said my cd iso is bad?
[05:27] <gogeta> randy_: doesent mean they dont die but shhot for bad iso thats probly the issue
[05:27] <dnivra> gladson, check out iwconfig.
[05:27] <gladson> randy, I never did that
[05:28] <randy_> gogeta, should I re-install my OS
[05:28] <rednblue> i want rwxrwxrwx permissino to be set auto to directories creating using ftp
[05:28] <Chaos2358> quick question guys. im looking into a program that is supportted on linux KDE or QT  is there a way to run this on ubuntu 10.10?
[05:28] <gogeta> randy_: with a new iso
[05:28] <microsoft> romi
[05:28] <tanjir> after 9.04, i installed 10.04... and I don't see Services under admin menu... can any one tell me which package i can install to get it? :-(
[05:28] <randy_> gogeta, thank you
[05:28] <gogeta> randy_: make shure the cd isnt all messed up to
[05:28] <gladson> dnivra, randy_, la no wireless extensions eth0 no wireless extensions wlan0 IEEE and bla bla
[05:28] <tkmr> Chaos2358, yes. just have to install dependencies
[05:29] <gladson> dnivra, and also vboxnet0 no wireless extensions
[05:29] <dfhsd> go back to earlier version, that works!
[05:29] <gogeta> randy_: and dont use the win7 burner we get knothing but issues with that use something like imgburn
[05:29] <miststlkr> If I want to essentially reformat a persistent usb install, would simply replacing the casper-rw file do the trick?
[05:29] <Chaos2358> tkmr meaning? Im not very.....skilled with somethings
[05:29] <randy_> I install ubuntu x64 10.04 server,when install it,I installed openshh,but Ican't connnect to it even can ping it,how can I do
[05:29] <ogami1972> oh shizznit...how did i end up here?
[05:30] <nirazio> I need to create minimalistic server appliance for running on amazon ec2 (ami). I tried debootstrap. its coming upto 200+ MB , its same with vmbuilder also.Are there any ways of getting it down to 100MB or less. I just need it with bare minimum linux os + JRE.The smaller the size the better.
[05:31] <tanjir> randy_, did you start the service?
[05:31] <dfhsd> nirazo some tips go back in time,
[05:31] <tanjir> sshd?
[05:31] <dfhsd> linux can be run from floppy.
[05:31] <gogeta> dfhsd: 2 floppy these days
[05:31] <ogami1972> umm. Hey guys...i just launched my IRC client after at least 2 years of it languishing...am wondering if anyone knows what network the XKCD IRC is on these days?
[05:31] <dfhsd> modern: microcore/tinycore
[05:32] <tkmr> Chaos2358, what are you installing? dependencies are things that other things need to work properly... if that makes sense.
[05:32] <dfhsd> Rescue Is Possible-Riplinux
[05:32] <gogeta> dfhsd: 2.6 got to big for just 1
[05:32] <ogami1972> sigh...um...sorry...i shouldn't have posted that, sorry
[05:32] <randy_> tanjir, yes,it can shh itself
[05:33] <gogeta> randy_: maybe ufw has the port closed or your roughter is blockin it
[05:33] <Chaos2358> tkmr yea it makes sense im looking at installing a program called kid3 if the one i am installing now doesnt work properly. im looking for an mp3 tag editor that searched web for missing track and ide tags and corrects it automatically
[05:33] <sumit> hi
[05:33] <toyotires> hello I need to put a some lines of a script in a start up script witchone should be the correct??
[05:34] <arthurh> anyone played with pulseaudio+rygel can give me some pointers?
[05:35] <dfhsd> pulseaudio is used in LTSP
[05:35] <toyotires> how can I put a pass to a user__
[05:35] <tkmr> Chaos2358, as long as all the dependencies are installed, it should work fine. And if you're installing it with apt-get it should take care of the dependencies for you.
[05:35] <toyotires> how can I put a pass to a user??
[05:35] <FredFlinstone> sacarlson, forceroot worked but allows access to anyone, that won't do
[05:35] <greezmunkey> .
[05:35] <dfhsd> ..
[05:35] <toyotires> does any one know how can I change a pass to a user??
[05:36] <FredFlinstone> i need it security
[05:36] <Chaos2358> tkmr ok will do with apt-get then, will you be in here in oh say 30 minutes just in case i manage to fudge it up and need a lil "advice"
[05:36] <dnivra> !patience | toyotires
[05:36] <dfhsd>  security? Test BackTrack 4 r2
[05:36] <rww> toyotires: For the user you're logged in as, or for a different one.
[05:36] <rww> dfhsd: Backtrack is offtopic for this channel.
[05:36] <toyotires> dnivra, those are different questions??
[05:37] <tkmr> Chaos2358, yup
[05:37] <toyotires> difrent one rww
[05:37] <dfhsd> :-)
[05:37] <rww> toyotires: 'sudo passwd usersnamehere' in the terminal
[05:37] <dfhsd> l0gin as root
[05:37] <toyotires> rww thsnks!!!
[05:37] <dnivra> toyotires, sorry :). seemed the same to me. should've read more carefully.
[05:37] <randy_> gogeta, I don't use iptable and the switch don't have firewall
[05:37] <rww> !noroot
[05:38] <sacarlson> FredFlinstone: who do you want to access it?
[05:38] <FredFlinstone> just fred
[05:39] <BillyRayCyrus> I need help mounting a single RAID 1 drive to recover some files
[05:39] <FredFlinstone> security = user fred map = /etc/samba/smbusers
[05:40] <shame> cd /media & mkdir raid1
[05:40] <kaushal> hi
[05:40] <glitchd> Broichen,  ok im back
[05:40] <shame> mount /dev/xxraidxx /media/raid
[05:40] <shame> ..
[05:40] <kaushal> where do i copy the unbuffer shell script so that its available to all users
[05:40] <sacarlson> FredFlinstone: ya looks like it has some kind of security already
[05:40] <randy_> tanjir, gogeta ,I find it,the switch is too old,has some problem,I change a port,is OK,Chinese school don't like students set up a group,so give us a bad switch
[05:40] <FredFlinstone> i tried , but failed i guess
[05:41] <FredFlinstone> https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MountWindowsSharesPermanently
[05:41] <BillyRayCyrus> mount: unknown filesystem type 'linux_raid_member'
[05:41] <randy_> tanjir, gogeta , Thank you a lot,I should go to the classs
[05:41] <FredFlinstone> now i am confusing myself
[05:42] <shame> BillyRayCyrus look at the link from FredFlinstone  :)
[05:43] <dfhsd> nfs, reiserfs, flickrfs, ext2fs, minixfs, webfs, nfs, cloopfs, what do you want?
[05:43] <mattalexx> I can't seem to get to a prompt on my server. When I'm at a connected monitor, I can enter my user and pass, then it hangs at "Last login ...". When I SSH in, it displays "Authenticating with public key "rsa-key-...", then hangs. What might be causing this problem?
[05:43] <sacarlson> FredFlinstone: well I don't see this security = user
[05:43] <dfhsd> sshfs, telnetfs?
[05:43] <tanjir> does any one know how can i see the services list like prior to 9.04 in 10.04?
[05:43] <Chaos2358> tkmr may i pm?
[05:44] <toyotires> how can I add some commands to a start up script?? does any one knows a good start up script to do that in ubunut ... should be one on the /etc/init.b/    right??
[05:44] <rww> toyotires: /etc/rc.local
[05:44] <arthurh> sigh
[05:44] <dfhsd> /etc/init.d/rRS/local
[05:44] <sacarlson> FredFlinstone: ok I found it security = user fred map = /etc/samba/smbusers
[05:44] <dfhsd> /etc/init.d/rc.local
[05:45] <rww> dfhsd: Come into #ubuntu-ops when you feel like being helpful, instead of nonsensical and offtopic.
[05:45] <sacarlson> FredFlinstone: can you do that?  put three values on one line?
[05:45] <toyotires> rww tha is a good script to dfine a interface when it starts up__
[05:45] <FredFlinstone> LOL i thought i did it right as per that page
[05:46] <Chaos2358> tkmr you still here?
[05:46] <sacarlson> FredFlinstone: and I am comparing to this http://www.howtogeek.com/howto/ubuntu/install-samba-server-on-ubuntu/
[05:46] <FredFlinstone> i meant this page - http://www.prash-babu.com/2008/05/how-to-setup-samba-in-linux.html
[05:46] <MoMo> i'm using 10.04.1 LTS ... how can i start troubleshooting no sound over HDMI
[05:47] <MoMo> the HDMI is onboard btw
[05:47] <FredFlinstone> i am so burnt out today, sorry for that, i cant stop stressing
[05:47] <FredFlinstone> Find the following line
[05:47] <FredFlinstone> ; security = user
[05:47] <FredFlinstone> and replace it with
[05:47] <FredFlinstone> security = user username map = /etc/samba/smbusers
[05:47] <FloodBot1> FredFlinstone: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
[05:48] <FredFlinstone> so according to that i  did it right?
[05:49] <FredFlinstone> security = user fred map = /etc/samba/smbusers
[05:49] <FredFlinstone> this was easy in 10.04, under an hour both way sharing
[05:49] <FredFlinstone> you guys , not me :)
[05:50] <FredFlinstone> i upgraded it and it went bad
[05:50] <tkmr> Chaos2358, yeah
[05:50] <rww> toyotires: What do you mean by "define an interface"?
[05:50] <sacarlson> FredFlinstone: I don't think so,  try put each value=this ,  on a different line as shown in http://www.howtogeek.com/howto/ubuntu/install-samba-server-on-ubuntu/
[05:51] <FredFlinstone> ok
[05:51] <Chaos2358> tkmr ok i installed from this website http://kid3.sourceforge.net/ it gave an option for ubuntu 10.10 with dependencies but i cant find the program
[05:52] <toyotires> rww i nee to start up and always my IP to be the 172.16.0.1 is a router
[05:52] <FredFlinstone> sacarlson,  what to replace, user?
[05:52] <tkmr> Chaos2358, try typing kid3 into the run command dialog
[05:52] <rww> toyotires: You should be using /etc/network/interfaces for that
[05:52] <toyotires> rww but always when I restart I get no add for that interface
[05:52] <FredFlinstone> or username, or both?
[05:53] <glitchd> can anyone help me diagnose why chromium wont use flash?
[05:53] <FredFlinstone> man why arent people specific on pages tghat teach grrrrr
[05:53] <toyotires> rww is that a script__
[05:53] <Chaos2358> tkmr ok forgive my stupidity but the run command dialogue?
[05:53] <rww> toyotires: no, it's a configuration file for one of Ubuntu's networking subsystems. See 'man interfaces'.
[05:53] <FredFlinstone> what do i replace with fred, user? or username, or both?
[05:53] <glitchd> can anyone help me diagnose why chromium wont use flash?
[05:54] <tkmr> Chaos2358, Hit alt+F2 and that should open the run command dialogue. =)
[05:54] <Chaos2358> tkmr oh ok lol
[05:55] <Chaos2358> tkmr ok it said error could not open no such file or directory. nut when i clicked the link in the webpage it opened ubuntu software center on my desktop and i downloaded from there. it also says it is installed
[05:55] <sacarlson> FredFlinstone: ok simple rule to try "never have '='  sign seen twice on the same line
[05:55] <tnm_> can i install xfce on ubuntu without internet connection?
[05:56] <FredFlinstone> ok
[05:56] <FredFlinstone> what do i replace with fred, user? or username, or both?
[05:56] <FredFlinstone> do i even?
[05:57] <Chaos2358> tkmr hey i did it
[05:58] <sacarlson> FredFlinstone: in the example I gave you it looks like username map = /etc/samba/smbusers
[05:58] <tkmr> Chaos2358, Ah, did they put the binary in a weird place?
[05:58] <tkmr> Chaos2358, I was just finishing up a response too... lol
[05:58] <Chaos2358> tkmr lol i had to go to preferences/main menu and check the box
[05:58] <sacarlson> FredFlinstone: I'm not sure what example your looking at
[05:58] <FredFlinstone> so F'ed up with fred LOL
[05:58] <dexi> Hello everyone. I just put in a brand new SATA drive out of the box, is there something I need to do so ubby will recognize it? (10.04)
[05:58] <tkmr> Chaos2358, and it works well?
[05:58] <FredFlinstone> username user geeeeezzzzzz
[05:58] <alphadelta220> !help
[05:59] <FredFlinstone> how do we know when to replace soemthing like that?
[05:59] <Chaos2358> tkmr not sure yet i just found and opened it. didnt want to leave you looking for why i couldnt find it
[05:59] <Chaos2358> tkmr going to test it now
[05:59] <tkmr> Chaos2358, haha ok. Thanks for that. =)
[05:59] <sacarlson> FredFlinstone: I'm sure there are 100 different ways to do it,  I can only work on one method at a time
[06:00] <Chaos2358> tkmr yup im crossing my fingers and importing 10k mp3 files
[06:00] <KM0201> Chaos2358: were you trying to install Gyachi a while ago?
[06:00] <sacarlson> FredFlinstone: my method of security is just allow all local lan to access and also give one dir full read write.  but I'm a low security guy
[06:01] <Chaos2358> KM0201,  yep. i have tried every tag editor out there havent found one yet that does it automatically. I really fish they would fix cowbell
[06:01] <KM0201> Chaos2358: gyachi isn't a tag editor
[06:01] <Alives> what is the best way to specify resolv.conf options in ubuntu, without using chattr +i?
[06:01] <KM0201> Chaos2358: easytag?... thats what i use
[06:01] <FredFlinstone> i see
[06:02] <ejv> how do i turn off quiet booting for ubuntu server
[06:02] <Chaos2358> KM0201, tried it, it ran for about three hours but when i opened my rythmbox i still had over 2k unknowns
[06:02] <rww> ejv: sudo nano /etc/default/grub and remove the quiet and splash arguments from the GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT line
[06:02] <KM0201> hmm
[06:02] <rww> ejv: then sudo update-grub
[06:02] <FredFlinstone> one thing i am missing is where do i put in mount on boot  commands to mount stuff from other win box?
[06:03] <FredFlinstone> fstab?
[06:04] <ejv> rww: you friggin rock
[06:05] <sacarlson> FredFlinstone: yup
[06:06] <ejv> you know when you have a night of nothing working, and then stuff starts working, you just sigh with relief... lol
[06:06] <FredFlinstone> gotta reboot
[06:07] <dexi> the hell
[06:07] <Chaos2358> tkmr ok all that for nothing. it will only allow for manual editing
[06:07] <dexi> my desktop wallpaer just turned black... my icons up top for programs turned to red X's... it seems as if my harddrive is no longer accessable, however, im still here
[06:08] <dexi> i should check this out inside!
[06:09] <Chaos2358> KM0201,  you said you use easytag correct?
[06:09] <KM0201> Chaos2358: thats what i use
[06:09] <KM0201> sudo apt-get install easytag
[06:09] <FredFlinstone> ok i am still sol, i put fred wher you had me put root, and still it lets anyone
[06:09] <Chaos2358> KM0201,  yea i literally just deleted it an hour ago
[06:09] <KM0201> hmm
[06:10] <Chaos2358> KM0201,  my question is this. when u use it does it edit the id3 tags as well as file names?
[06:10] <FredFlinstone> if i reinstall ubuntu i lose a lot of stuff here
[06:10] <KM0201> Chaos2358: no..
[06:10] <KM0201> but if you do it manually, it's not an issue
[06:11] <Chaos2358> KM0201, edit the file names manually?
[06:11] <KM0201> Chaos2358: yeah
[06:12] <KM0201> when you highlight a song...
[06:12] <KM0201> if you look, you can see the tags on the right
[06:12] <KM0201> then at the top, you see the actual filename
[06:12] <FredFlinstone> i am now feeling like i cannot have a secure ubuntu at all, if its this flaky to set up, it must be untrustable too
[06:12] <KM0201> if you want to change the filename.
[06:12] <Chaos2358> KM0201,  and which is it that causes it to show up as "unknown title, unknown artist" in rythmbox? the id3 or file name?
[06:12] <KM0201> just type whatever you want up there, edit the tags, click save,
[06:12] <KM0201> Chaos2358: that woul be the tags
[06:12] <Chaos2358> KM0201,  but i have 10,317 songs
[06:13] <KM0201> i dunno chaos
[06:13] <Chaos2358> KM0201,  thats alot to edit manually
[06:13] <KM0201> should've kept track of it better.
[06:13] <Chaos2358> KM0201,  lol yea tell me about it
[06:14] <FredFlinstone> no comment?

[06:20] <dnivra> Fezzler, i've installed nvidia's drivers for a friend from their site. i did find it in their site.
[06:21] <Fezzler> dnivra>> I have the driver that used to work and it doesn't install - some error about the kernel
[06:22] <dnivra> Fezzler, but that was long ago-i don't remember what i did. sorry :).

[06:38] <sacarlson> valros: I'm not sure I understand floating  but you can zoom into the work to perform more acurate work
[06:38] <valros> yeah, thats what i have to do now and its horrible..all i need to to is place it exactly at X,Y

[06:42] <h1> omardragonslayer check /etc/samba/smb.conf
[06:45] <rigved> which file is the terminal logged to? like all the commands that i have typed and the messages which were displayed in the terminal
[06:46] <rww> rigved: commands are logged to ~/.bash_history. Output isn't logged by default.
[06:46] <red2kic> rigved: ~/.bash_history
[06:46] <omardragonslayer> "no such file or directory"
[06:46] <rigved> rww, red2kic: ok. thanx.
[06:46] <pgpkeys> history
[06:46] <pgpkeys> just type history
[06:47] <rigved> rww: how do i enable logging of the output?
[06:47] <rww> no idea
[06:47] <rigved> rww: ok. thanx again
[06:47] <GabrielYYZ>  rigved: the output of what?
[06:48] <rigved> GabrielYYZ: output obtained in the termional when i type any command
[06:48] <Jordan_U> rigved: You can run "script" and all the commands and output from then untill you close the terminal will be kept in a file called "typescript" in the current directory.
[06:48] <maxylopes> Hi
[06:48] <GabrielYYZ> rigved:  "command > output.txt"

[06:49] <maxylopes> supported
[06:49] <GabrielYYZ> rigved: without quotes
[06:49] <Tobarja> i want to be sure i haven't enabled something i shouldn't have. should libc have been updated in the last week or so on lucid/10.04?
[06:50] <rigved> GabrielYYZ: that's redirecting the output. i wanted to know if it can be enabled by default. like a script which stores all the output and then maybe configure logrotate to rotate it
[06:50] <maxylopes> How to open .bin file? writes it isnt supported
[06:50] <rigved> GabrielYYZ: also, the output should be displayed in the terminal as well as stored in the output file
[06:51] <GabrielYYZ> rigved: ahh, then i'll join the chorus and say "beats me" :( lol
[06:51] <rigved> GabrielYYZ: ok. thanx. :)

[06:52] <tiox> I wanna switch to using Docky as my means of accessing files and folders, but Cardapio doesn't seem to have an option to integrate as it's own helper object in Docky's prefs. I installed cardapio-docky but I still see no helper of docklet. Suggestions? And no, I won't take show-near-mouse, I want a separate entity on the dock just for cardapio, like a start menu.
[06:52] <rigved> GabrielYYZ: np.

[06:55] <omardragonslayer> Vista
[06:55] <sacarlson> omardragonslayer: the shared printer is on vista?

[06:56] <sacarlson> omardragonslayer: sorry I"m a moron in vista

[07:02] <frold> is it possible to add a sidepanel to ubuntu desktop like you know on WinDows

[07:03] <tiox> Yes, froid.
[07:03] <red2kic> zmbmartin: ~/.bashrc
[07:03] <tiox> Just choose to add a new panel and drag it to the side.
[07:03] <tiox> Wrong, sorry...
[07:03] <tiox> Old Windows logic kicking in.
[07:04] <tiox> Youcan configure where apanel manifests in it's properties.
[07:04] <tiox> If you make a new panel, right click and choose properties, change it's position there.
[07:05] <zmbmartin> red2kic: let me rephrase if I set my local TERM "export TERM=linux" then the prompt is color
[07:05] <tiox> Mind, froid, you need to adjust the panel to use a solid color, since the system theme default (Ambiance, Radiance too) has no side panel graphics.

[07:06] <tiox> WHoops, sorry.
[07:07] <tiox> froid, I would also suggest popping into #conky and asking how you can configure that, since conky has a lot of flexibility in terms of customization and theme-matching and stuff like that, I wouldn't be surprised if conky would be a superior solution to gnome-panels.

[07:08] <furi> guys, i've been trying to sync my itouch with my ubuntu machine and nothing is working. when i plug in the itouch when rhythmbox is open, it mounts and immediately unmounts. in a terminal, it says: http://pastebin.com/MBqnDgU3 can someone help?
[07:08] <tiox> If you look for screencaps of conky, you'll see nine times out of ten CPU is an entity, disk space, fan speed, uptime, all sorts of stuff like that.
[07:08] <furi> forgot to mention i'm trying to sync it without jailbreaking it
[07:09] <tiox> Hey guys, isn't there a plugin for rhythmbox that syncs to most Apple MP3 devices?
[07:09] <pickett_> make sure its not on standby
[07:11] <tiox> (Also furl, I encourage jailbreaking -- Many apple apps you gotta pay for through the store always have free alternatives for those willing to break the locks on their device. Even stillthere are some paid apps for jailbroken iPads/iTouches, to which I ask... why?)
[07:12] <rotem925> hello, Does anybody know of a tool to mux two mp3 files into one?
[07:12] <rigved> !iphone | furi
[07:12] <furi> tiox, i actually do want to jailbreak my itouch, but i think its version is too high
[07:12] <rigved> furi: ^^ see if this helps
[07:12] <furi> rigved, thanks
[07:12] <rigved> furi: you are welcome
[07:13] <furi> is there a way for rhythmbox though?
[07:13] <furi> i'm reading this http://www.webupd8.org/2010/01/easy-way-to-sync-your-iphone-with.html
[07:13] <tiox> "Liberating", hehe
[07:14] <rotem925> anyone? how do I mux audio files?

[07:15] <chandrageetha> how to enable cookies?
[07:16] <Blue1> chandrageetha: depends on browser
[07:16] <bullgard> chandrageetha: Use your WWW browser.
[07:16] <chandrageetha> i am using chromium and mozilla
[07:16] <jijojohn> hello when i use remastersys,which option i select to make a livecd with only the filesystem of linux,not userdata
[07:16] <Blue1> name fam with mozilla, do you mean firefox by chance?
[07:17] <Blue1> not fam
[07:17] <chandrageetha> is it browser dependend? can´t we customize it?
[07:17] <chandrageetha> what you mean by WWW browser, bullgard
[07:17] <Blue1> chandrageetha: it's different in every browser - so the answer to your question depends on what browser you use
[07:18] <bullgard> chandrageetha: Yes, it is WWW browser type dependent.
[07:18] <jamesklyne> rotem925: Not sure if that's what you're looking for but good luck.
[07:18] <tiox> chandrageetha: Firefox is very customizable. If you want an unbranded version of firefox you can check out abrowser.
[07:18] <rotem925> jamesklyne:  I need a commandline tool :) this one is GUI, thanks anyway
[07:18] <jijojohn> anyone know  hello when i use remastersys,which option i select to make a livecd with only the filesystem of linux,not userdata
[07:18] <bullgard> chandrageetha: A WWW browser is a program that allows you to read the many websites in the Internet. A prominent example is "Firefox".
[07:18]  * Blue1 wonders if they'll ever get ff to work 64 bit in 10.10?

[07:20] <tiox> Both browsers can have cookies enabled.
[07:20] <chandrageetha> how to enable cookies in FireFox?
[07:20] <tiox> Should be enabled by default.
[07:21] <chandrageetha> is chromium cookies customizable?
[07:21] <glitchd> ughhh no matter what i do, i cannot get flash to work in chromium!!!
[07:21] <glitchd> please help
[07:22] <cdbs> glitchd: Did you install the flashplugin-installer package?
[07:22] <tiox> chandrageetha: Please go to #firefox for more firefox help -- This ploace is for Ubuntu support. As for chromium, I assume it's #chromium for their support.
[07:22] <tiox> place*
[07:22] <glitchd> cdbs, i have tried all of them
[07:22] <cdbs> glitchd: after installing it you need to close and re-open chromium
[07:22] <glitchd> cdbs, including the one from the site
[07:22] <glitchd> cdbs, yes i did that
[07:23] <glitchd> cdbs, i have been at this all day
[07:23] <glitchd> cdbs, since about 11am
[07:23] <ChaosPsycheX> can someone help me with a wubi installation
[07:23] <glitchd> cdbs, i have done everything short of reinstalling ubuntu
[07:23] <cdbs> glitchd: Can you test flash by going to http://www.adobe.com/software/flash/about/
[07:23] <ChaosPsycheX> i cant boot into ubuntu
[07:23] <rigved> ChaosPsycheX: how did you install. i mean what options did you select?
[07:24] <glitchd> cdbs, how exactly am i suppose to test it on that site?
[07:24] <cdbs> glitchd: Do you get a banner 'Flash player successfully installed ' ?
[07:24] <glitchd> cdbs, yes i did
[07:24] <cdbs> glitchd: so its installed!
[07:24] <glitchd> cdbs, but i cant watch youtube
[07:25] <cdbs> glitchd: What is the error you get?
[07:25] <glitchd> cdbs, i just get a black box, but there is audio, jus no picture
[07:25] <tiox> glitchd: Sounds stupid to ask, but did you allow YouTube through NoScript?
[07:25] <tiox> Oh.
[07:25] <rigved> ChaosPsycheX: ok. are you able to boot into windows?
[07:25]  * tiox stays out of the discussion
[07:25] <glitchd> cdbs, same thing on other sites with flash content
[07:25] <cdbs> glitchd: try http://cbse.nic.in/
[07:26] <cdbs> the simplest flash website I could think of
[07:26] <ChaosPsycheX> yes
[07:26] <glitchd> tiox i dont think  im using noscript, im in chromium
[07:26] <tiox> Oooh! I should just shut my big fat mouth then. :P
[07:26] <glitchd> cdbs, yea theres just a big grey/black box there
[07:26] <ChaosPsycheX> my windows install is infected
[07:26] <ChaosPsycheX> with a virus posing as a anti virus program
[07:26] <cdbs> glitchd: hmm, maybe a problem with your graphic card driver?
[07:26] <cdbs> glitchd: does it work with Firefox?
[07:27] <ChaosPsycheX> i moved my linux install over to its own partition
[07:27] <glitchd> cdbs, yes it does work in ff
[07:27] <ChaosPsycheX> i cant boot into that partition
[07:27] <glitchd> tiox, dont be so hard on urself
[07:27] <ChaosPsycheX> i want to re-claim the windows partition and change it over
[07:27] <tiox> ChaosPsycheX: Move your files over and delete the partion in gparted then?
[07:28] <tiox> partition*
[07:28] <ChaosPsycheX> cant,because i cant even boot to dev/sda2
[07:28] <glitchd> cdbs, any ideas?
[07:28] <rigved> ChaosPsycheX: did you use the migration assistant?
[07:28] <ChaosPsycheX> i used the wubi-move-to-partition program
[07:29] <cdbs> glitchd: Which version of chromium are you using?
[07:29] <ChaosPsycheX> i can browse the partition files,just cant boot to it
[07:29] <ChaosPsycheX> i can even mount it
[07:29] <glitchd> cdbs, 8.0.552.215 (67652) Ubuntu 10.04
[07:29] <tiox> Well that sounds like a load of suck. :(
[07:29] <cdbs> !language | tiox
[07:29] <ChaosPsycheX> i want to boot to dev/sda2
[07:30] <ghisen> Everytime Istart skype or virtual box, gnome crashes(?) and i get the login screen... Anyone know what could be wrong?
[07:30] <cdbs> glitchd: Is it from a PPA or the one from the ubuntu repos?
[07:30] <ChaosPsycheX> so i cant change dev/sda1 to a ext partition
[07:30] <tiox> Hope you get it sorted out, I'm... ubottu... IN the words of Cartman, "Screw you guys, I'm outta here!"
[07:30] <glitchd> cdbs, im not sure
[07:30] <sunwear_> hello everyone
[07:30] <glitchd> cdbs, wait
[07:30] <rigved> ChaosPsycheX: ok. so firstly i'll tell you your last option - use live cd and backup you files. then do a fresh install
[07:30] <sunwear_> hello everybody
[07:30] <glitchd> cdbs, i just reinstalled it from synaptic
[07:30] <sunwear_> hello all
[07:30] <ChaosPsycheX> i dont have a cd drive
[07:31] <rigved> ChaosPsycheX: now before that, you should use the live cd and try to fix your grub using it
[07:31] <ChaosPsycheX> it went out
[07:31] <glitchd> cdbs, ive been at this all day, so i have completely removed it and reinstalled it 3 times already today
[07:31] <ChaosPsycheX> dont have a cd drive
[07:31] <rigved> ChaosPsycheX: do you have a usb slot?
[07:31] <cdbs> glitchd: okay, I think its a problem with webkit in embedding those. It works well here, so I guess you might try updating
[07:32] <cdbs> glitchd: I mean, updating chromium
[07:32] <glitchd> cdbs, ok, how do i do that?
[07:32] <ChaosPsycheX> yes
[07:32] <ChaosPsycheX> can i install from my ipod?
[07:32] <glitchd> cdbs, i just reinstalled it, wouldnt it be the most current one already?
[07:32] <cdbs> glitchd: https://edge.launchpad.net/~chromium-daily/+archive/beta
[07:32] <rigved> !liveusb | ChaosPsycheX
[07:32] <cdbs> glitchd: Do you know how to add PPAs? Add that PPA and update your chromium
[07:32] <glitchd> cdbs, no i have no idea how to
[07:32] <rigved> ChaosPsycheX: ^^ follow these instruction to make a live usb. then use it to fix grub
[07:33] <cdbs> !ppa | glitchd
[07:33] <Jordan_U> ChaosPsycheX: If it's a "classic" iPod then yes, if it's an iPod Touch then no (because it uses its own proprietary protocal rather than showing up as a USB mass storage device).
[07:33] <cdbs> glitchd: Open software-sources, add ppa:chromium-daily/beta to the Third-party tab, close and update
[07:34] <ChaosPsycheX> god dammit
[07:34] <cdbs> !language | ChaosPsycheX
[07:34] <ChaosPsycheX> its an ipod touch :-(
[07:34] <rigved> ChaosPsycheX: can you get a usb stick temporarily?
[07:34] <ChaosPsycheX> nah
[07:35] <ChaosPsycheX> my ipod touch is jailbroken though
[07:35] <ChaosPsycheX> can i install a protocol on it so it will show up as a usb mass storage device
[07:35] <Jordan_U> ChaosPsycheX: What happens when you try to boot Ubuntu?
[07:35] <ChaosPsycheX> i get an error saying that dev/sda2 doesnt exist dropping to a command shell
[07:36] <oier_> How many GB do Ubuntu 10.10 need just to have it as virtual machine to very specific uses (and not to save data)?
[07:36] <rigved> oier_: 20 GB recommended
[07:37] <oier_> yeah, I see it in my vmware player...
[07:37] <ChaosPsycheX> something about devadm is not permitted while udev is uncofigured too
[07:37] <oier_> but, what if 10?
[07:37] <ChaosPsycheX> i think grub is botched or something
[07:37] <rigved> oier_: managable if you configure logrotate to rotate more often than usual
[07:37] <glitchd> cdbs, ok i did that but im getting some error, how do i track down which entry this is talking about

[07:46] <cdbs> glitchd: I have to go now, sorry
[07:46] <Two9A> linux_probe: Did you have any trouble setting it up initially?
[07:46] <linux_probe> i gave up and plugged it into a windows7 box
[07:46] <Two9A> Mm
[07:46] <linux_probe> lmao
[07:46] <glitchd> wtf!!!!!1
[07:47] <linux_probe> gave up on the beta crap
[07:47] <Two9A> My Nova-T feels like it's almost working, it just can't tune in
[07:47] <glitchd> can anyone else help me get this to work????????????????????????????
[07:47] <rww> !punctuation
[07:47] <linux_probe> i went through a week of trials and tribulations
[07:48] <linux_probe> then gave up, as I moved alot of stuff ot an ESXi host anyways
[07:48] <glitchd> can someone please help me get flash to work in chromium???!
[07:48] <linux_probe> then again, that was about 1 year ago now
[07:48] <acnot> Hi all, I have broken my wireless
[07:49] <linux_probe> i had trouble with it on windows also
[07:49] <faryshta> Hello. How to mount a external hard-drive? Already plugged.
[07:49] <linux_probe> and still do on occasion
[07:49] <Two9A> linux_probe: Doesn't sound like fun, sure
[07:49] <faryshta> acnot, which wireless card you have?
[07:49] <linux_probe> nope, i was ready to snap in it half about a dozen times
[07:49] <glitchd> does anyone know anything about chromium in here??
[07:49] <faryshta> Trouble mounting an external hard-drive.
[07:50] <faryshta> glitchd what do you need to know?
[07:50] <glitchd> faryshta, i cant get flash to work in chromium
[07:50] <acnot> I have been experimenting with WEP exploiting achieved absolutely nothing and manage to somehow bust my routing
[07:50] <glitchd> faryshta, someone was helping me but bitched out in the middle of helping
[07:50] <faryshta> glitchd, install the mozilla plugin.
[07:50] <faryshta> Then reboot.
[07:50]  * Two9A just doesn't understand why the card can't tune
[07:50] <Sargun> Does anyone have any decent programs to run basic statistical analysis on command line?
[07:50] <acnot> faryshta: Intel Corporation PRO/Wireless 3945ABG
[07:51] <glitchd> faryshta, how do i do that?
[07:51] <Sargun> simpler than R
[07:51] <Two9A> The aerial's plugged in, and the card's up and running; should be fine
[07:51] <faryshta> glitchd are you new? Not criticizing, need to know.
[07:51] <linux_probe> is it the same card as mine Two9A ?
[07:51] <glitchd> faryshta, for all intensive purposes, yes.
[07:52] <faryshta> In the system menu you will find Synaptic Package Manager.
[07:52] <linux_probe> stupidly on mine one coax port is for FM tuner only
[07:52] <rww> intents and purposes
[07:52] <acnot> faryshta: I can connect to an access point but no through-put
[07:52] <linux_probe> the other is internally split to both tuners
[07:52] <acnot> faryshta: I can't even ping
[07:53] <faryshta> acnot, are you sure your router is working? Try connecting other router.
[07:53] <acnot> faryshta: Actually I can ping the wireless router
[07:53] <FishFace> acnot: Did you change your mac address by chance? Also, have you booted since the problem?
[07:53] <zealiod> this rule is not preventing network users viewing web content on port 80, can any one suggest why? iptables -IFORWARD -i br0 -p tcp --dport 80 -j DROP
[07:53] <glitchd> faryshta, are u gonna help me?
[07:53] <acnot> FishFace: Yes and yes
[07:53] <faryshta> glitchd, open synaptic manager.
[07:54] <glitchd> faryshta, ok
[07:54] <glitchd> faryshta, then?
[07:54] <zealiod> I've also tried the rule on INPUT
[07:54] <faryshta> find a package named mozilla-flashplugin or something like that.
[07:55] <faryshta> Maybe mozilla-plugin-flash I don't rememer.
[07:55] <FishFace> acnot: Well, booting should change the address back. Maybe look at your router and see if the old mac address is listed. Kill it if so. Thinking your IP might be on there twice. Just a guess.
[07:55] <acnot> faryshta: I have tried three completely different  access points connected to three completely different ISPa
[07:55] <acnot> ISPs
[07:56] <acnot> FishFace : I am  on a different AP now
[07:56] <faryshta> Somebody know how to plug an external hard-drive?
[07:56] <FishFace> acnot: Sorry buddy. I don't know.
[07:57] <glitchd> faryshta, there is no package with or like that name
[07:57] <iflema> Two9A: dvb-t?? install dvb-apps and in a terminal... for e.g.      scan /usr/share/dvb/dvb-t/au-Newcastle > ~/.channels.conf     to tune and save scan results.. replace au-Newcastle with what applies to you... should do....
[07:57] <acnot> I un-installed the driver patch that I installed to get airodump-ng working with my card and now chromium has cracked it with me
[07:58] <acnot> When running it it say that it can not read "my personal preferences"
[07:58] <faryshta> glitchd are you using pure free-software?
[07:58] <glitchd> faryshta, i believe so
[07:58] <acnot> FishFace: Well thanks for jump'n in anyway
[07:59] <glitchd> faryshta, what do u mean by that?
[07:59] <pavanai> help me to update ma distro
[07:59] <acnot> FishFace: It's nice to know that you are not alone when shit goes wrong
[07:59] <ChaosPsycheX> how do i find out if i am running ubuntu 32 or 64 bit
[07:59] <pavanai> i tried sw sources
[07:59] <rww> ChaosPsycheX: type "uname -a" in a terminal. If you see "x86_64" near the end, you have 64-bit. "i686" is 32-bit.
[07:59] <acnot> Time for some google foo in an atempt to increase my Ubuntu/Linux foo!

[08:04] <glitchd> does anyone know anything about chromium flash in here??
[08:04] <faryshta> glitchd, sudo apt-get install flashplugin-nonfree
[08:04] <glitchd> faryshta, that doesnt work
[08:04] <glitchd> faryshta, it doesnt fix it
[08:04] <glitchd> faryshta, i still get a blank box where the flash content should be
[08:05] <Two9A> glitchd: Did you restart Chrome?
[08:05] <faryshta> Already rebooted chromium?
[08:05] <glitchd> Two9A, yes
[08:05] <Two9A> Righto
[08:05] <glitchd> Two9A, i have been at this for like 13hrs trying to get flash to work in chrome
[08:05] <glitchd> *chromium
[08:05] <Two9A> And I've been trying to fix my TV card for the whole night
[08:06] <MereX> does anybody know how I could adjust brightness ( i guess it is a well-known bug for running on battery? )
[08:06] <glitchd> Two9A, i have completely removed chromium twice and all the plugins in synaptic
[08:06] <glitchd> Two9A, and still i get a grey box where the flash content should be
[08:06] <Two9A> Can't help you there; my Linux box can't render Flash either, and I've never tried to fix it
[08:06] <glitchd> Two9A, i get audio, but no picture
[08:07] <glitchd> Two9A, well mine did, but then it just stopped about 2 weeks ago, it only doesnt work in chromium, it works in ff
[08:07] <faryshta> glitchd, http://www.ubuntugeek.com/howto-enable-flash-support-for-google-chromium-browser.html
[08:08] <glitchd> faryshta, ive done that, but ill try it anyways
[08:09] <faryshta> glitchd, killall chromium-browser; chromium browser
[08:09] <bigjr> who have update the NVIDIA graphis to nvidia 260.19.29 the instal failed under 10.04
[08:09] <glitchd> faryshta, as soon as i copied it over, i got a msg in chromium that the plugin crashed
[08:09] <faryshta> glitchd, what version of flash did you installed?
[08:10] <faryshta> Are you on 32 bits or 64?
[08:10] <glitchd> i believe it was version 10 and i am in a 32 bit system
[08:10] <glitchd> and i did what u just said, and it still had no effect on the problem
[08:11] <glitchd> still does the same thing
[08:11] <DasEi> bigjr: 260.19.26-0ubuntu1~xup~lucid runs fine on my lucid
[08:11] <bigjr> have you a link ?
[08:11] <bigjr> ididnt find at ppa
[08:12] <DasEi> !who | bigjr
[08:12] <DasEi> bigjr: I don't think it's from ppa, just jockey-gtk
[08:13] <bigjr> hm.. ok ty
[08:13] <DasEi> bigjr: how did you install ?
[08:13] <faryshta> glitchd, flash -v
[08:13] <glitchd> faryshta, put that in terminal?
[08:13] <bigjr> 10.4
[08:14] <faryshta> glitchd, yes.
[08:14] <bigjr> with a older 196....
[08:14] <Umeaboy> Hi!
[08:14] <bigjr> no ifind the way out
[08:14] <bigjr> np
[08:14] <glitchd> faryshta, says no command flash found
[08:14] <Umeaboy> I'm looking for the name of the Systemtest-program in 10.10. What's it called?
[08:15] <Umeaboy> I went to packages.ubuntu.com, but no hit when searching.
[08:15] <DasEi> bigjr: sudo apt-get install jockey-gtk && jockey-gtk  , choose recommended
[08:15] <glitchd> faryshta, now it just said that the flash plugin crashed , but nothing ever played
[08:15] <faryshta> glitchd, I think you don't have flash installed or at least not correctly installed.
[08:15] <Abhinav1> when I am starting my system getting error that target filesystem doesn't have requested /sbin/init what to do?
[08:16] <glitchd> faryshta, please oh please tell me how to install it correctly
[08:16] <glitchd> faryshta, like i said i have been doin this all day
[08:16] <glitchd> faryshta, please be the guy that shows me how ive been screwing it up all day
[08:16] <glitchd> faryshta, i will sh*t if u show me how to install it nd it works.
[08:16] <faryshta> glitchd, I hope I can.
[08:17] <glitchd> faryshta, literally sh*t.
[08:17] <glitchd> faryshta, right here where i am
[08:17] <faryshta> sudo cp /usr/lib/flashplugin-installer/libflashplayer.so /usr/lib/chromium-browser/plugins
[08:17] <DasEi> glitchd: 64 bit ?
[08:18] <glitchd> faryshta, i have installed it thru the software center, synaptic, downloaded .debs from adobe, i have done it all
[08:18] <glitchd> DasEi, no, 32 bit
[08:18] <dagon> can you run ubuntu on an  Iphone?
[08:18] <glitchd> DasEi, 10.04
[08:18] <GabrielYYZ> glitchd: do you use firefox as your web browser?
[08:18] <furi> at whoever showed me the one thing for amarok, amarok doesn't show it up either. rhythmbox is the closest as it gets. again, it mounts and unmounts on rhythmbox and on terminal it says this: http://pastebin.com/MBqnDgU3
[08:19] <dagon> IOS is unix and unix is linux right?
[08:19] <glitchd> GabrielYYZ, yes i did, but im trying to switch to chromium for speed
[08:19] <Myrtti> dagon: wrong and wrong
[08:19] <glitchd> i also excluded it from gtk rgba apps in the .profile file
[08:19] <GabrielYYZ> glitchd: ah, if you still have firefox installed, get the FLASH-AID add on and it will install flash automatically through a script
[08:20] <dagon> Myrtti, I want to run ubuntu on my IOS I phone.
[08:20] <glitchd> GabrielYYZ, u do know that im not interested in getting flash for firefox, right?
[08:20] <Myrtti> dagon: good luck
[08:20] <DasEi> glitchd: flashpluginstaller did for me, or just install ubuntu-restricted-extras (partner-repo enabled) for some more needed codecs
[08:20] <glitchd> DasEi, thats already done
[08:20] <DasEi> glitchd: what error do you get ?
[08:20] <glitchd> DasEi, if i didnt have restricted extras installed i wouldnt have some of the codecs that i have
[08:20] <glitchd> DasEi, its not an error msg,
[08:21] <glitchd> DasEi, i get sound, but no picture
[08:21] <glitchd> DasEi, like on youtube, i get a grey box with sound and thats it
[08:21] <Abhinav1> anyone ?
[08:21] <dagon> So IOS is screwed to not boot droid or ubuntu
[08:21] <dagon> I wanna get out of the clutches of apple and run droid on my i crap
[08:22] <dagon> meaning I phone
[08:22] <faryshta> glitchd, the flash for firefox is the same for chromium.
[08:22] <GabrielYYZ> glitchd: but did you try faryshta's suggestion to cp libflashplayer.so to /usr/lib/chromium-browser/plugins? that didn't work either?
[08:22] <dagon> or Ubuntu
[08:22] <Myrtti> dagon: too bad you bought an iphone then...
[08:22] <glitchd> GabrielYYZ, yes i did try and no it still didnt work
[08:22] <DasEi> glitchd: swfdec-mozilla installed ?
[08:22] <DasEi> (shouldn't )
[08:22] <furi> guys, i've been trying to sync my itouch with my ubuntu machine and nothing is working. when i plug in the itouch when rhythmbox is open, it mounts and immediately unmounts. in a terminal, it says: http://pastebin.com/MBqnDgU3 can someone help? i don't want to jailbreak.
[08:22] <glitchd> DasEi, i have no clue what that is
[08:22] <dagon> bah was traded.. I'm a linux guy so hene me being here
[08:22] <GabrielYYZ> faryshta: it's too complicated to do it the way i thought of anyways
[08:23] <DasEi> glitchd: another plugin which interferes with adobe
[08:23] <dagon> hence
[08:23] <glitchd> DasEi, how do i install it to give it a try?
[08:23] <vy> Hi! I'm looking for the patch Andy (apw) Whitcroft comitted to linux-libc-dev for https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/eglibc/+bug/673073 bug. Where can I find it?
[08:23] <DasEi> glitchd:sudo apt-get remove --purge  swfdec-mozilla

[08:30] <seul> hi! Yesterday i installed the latest version of desktop ubuntu, and now the fans are running at full speed constantly when there is no need to (checked with htop and stuff, not many heavy processes going on). The program fancontrol doesnt work for me. What to do?
[08:31] <nmvictor> is it possible to insert and eject my wireless card in ubuntu, seems like my hardware turn wireless ON/OFF button is not working ij my Toshiba satellite
[08:32] <faryshta> DasEi, [219891.368704] EXT4-fs (sda1): re-mounted. Opts: errors=remount-ro,commit=0
[08:32] <faryshta> [219897.172049] EXT4-fs (sda1): re-mounted. Opts: errors=remount-ro,commit=600
[08:33] <DasEi> faryshta: sda1 is your first hd, so likely the internal
[08:35] <faryshta> DasEi, then I suppose it simply can't read my external.
[08:35] <faryshta> I will try to plug it tomorrow at work.
[08:36] <faryshta> And check if its my external or my laptop.
[08:36] <DasEi> faryshta: it should least recognize it, seems like not powered on or such, is the drive spinning ?
[08:36] <root_> any good tutorial to set a ssh server??
[08:36] <ruby_on_tails> hi
[08:36] <ruby_on_tails> i downloaded firefox latest version which is a tar.bz and has a folder inside, i have no idea how to install it, what should i do ?
[08:36] <llutz_> root_: man sshd_config
[08:37] <DasEi> !ssh | root_
[08:37] <ilu-tg> hi all.. the persistent aliases for my root account are stored in /root/.bashrc
[08:38] <ilu-tg> where are the aliases for ALL users, like the global aliases?!
[08:38] <ilu-tg> talking of centos, by the way
[08:38] <furi> guys, i've been trying to sync my itouch with my ubuntu machine and nothing is working. when i plug in the itouch when rhythmbox is open, it mounts and immediately unmounts. in a terminal, it says: http://pastebin.com/MBqnDgU3 can someone help? i don't want to jailbreak.
[08:39] <faryshta> DasEi, yes its spinning.
[08:41] <ruby_on_tails> anyone ?
[08:41] <root_> what is the application for ssh user?? userssh???
[08:41] <llutz_> root_: ssh
[08:42] <faryshta> ruby_on_tails, ./firefox/firefox-bin or something similar.
[08:43] <root_> llutz, how can I set ssh for users and pas??
[08:43] <furi> guys, i've been trying to sync my itouch with my ubuntu machine and nothing is working. when i plug in the itouch when rhythmbox is open, it mounts and immediately unmounts. in a terminal, it says: http://pastebin.com/MBqnDgU3 can someone help? i don't want to jailbreak.
[08:43] <llutz_> root_: password = user-password, settings "man ssh" "man ssh_config"
[08:44] <ruby_on_tails> faryshta: what to do with that bin file ?
[08:44] <ruby_on_tails> if i double click it nothing happens
[08:44] <root_> llu is sshpass the comman I need
[08:44] <faryshta> ./file means execute "file".
[08:44] <faryshta> On a terminal put ./firefox-bin
[08:45] <llutz_> !sshd > root_  read here
[08:45] <ruby_on_tails> faryshta: ./firefox-bin: error while loading shared libraries: libxul.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
[08:45] <keepguessing> I am trying to pze boot an iso from a remote machine. I have not mount the iso. Is there a way to provide the iso  ??
[08:46] <keepguessing> pze=pxe
[08:46] <Jordan_U> ruby_on_tails: You don't run firefox-bin directly, you run the "firefox" shell script which properly sets up the environment for firefox-bin.
[08:46] <ruby_on_tails> Jordan_U: how do i do that ?
[08:46] <Jordan_U> keepguessing: Very few iso files can be booted via PXE.
[08:47] <ruby_on_tails> Jordan_U: i did ./firefox and it opens my old version 3.0.8 ff
[08:47] <keepguessing> Jordan_U How do you give that option ??
[08:47] <techbreak> My wifi adapter doesnt detect wifi networks.. Dell Vostro 1320
[08:47] <Jordan_U> ruby_on_tails: That's probably because you already had firefox open.
[08:48] <llutz_> ruby_on_tails: you're missing stuff to run the actual ff-version, it needs newer xulrunner afaik
[08:48] <ruby_on_tails> Jordan_U: should i close all of them ?
[08:48] <DasEi> keepguessing: yes, sudo -o loop Your.iso /your/mountpoint
[08:48] <Jordan_U> ruby_on_tails: Yes, close all firefox windows.
[08:48] <luxurymode> is there a way to pull up the history for this feed? need to reference some stuff from earlier. didnt log...
[08:48] <ruby_on_tails> llutz_: is there no debian file orsomething to install this
[08:48] <Jordan_U> ruby_on_tails: But really it's easier to install the latest firefox from a PPA.
[08:48] <ruby_on_tails> i am not a terminal ninja
[08:48] <Umeaboy> Nobody that knows?
[08:48] <ruby_on_tails> Jordan_U: i tried some cli commpands mentioning ppa, i dont understand a single thing from it
[08:48] <kernel> hy
[08:49] <DasEi> keepguessing: the dir you have to create remote, make it readable and put it in pxe's config (the path of remote iso)
[08:49] <llutz_> ruby_on_tails: if you install stuff from tar-files you have to take care about these dependencies on your own. that why using .debs is recommended
[08:49] <ruby_on_tails> is there any deb available ?
[08:49] <llutz_> ruby_on_tails: theres a mozilla-daily ppa (afaik) check it
[08:50] <keepguessing> I am not setting up a PXE server.
[08:50] <ruby_on_tails> ok
[08:50] <Jordan_U> ruby_on_tails: Do you want the latest stable version of Firefox, the latest beta, or the latest daily build?
[08:50] <llutz_> ruby_on_tails: and be prepared to break things that way
[08:50] <DasEi> !who | keepguessing
[08:50] <DasEi> keepguessing: how do you initiate ?
[08:51] <ruby_on_tails> Jordan_U: 3.6 i guess, the latest stable version
[08:51] <ruby_on_tails> llutz_: :(
[08:51] <keepguessing> from the boot prompt I am giving it the location of image
[08:51] <keepguessing> I mean is there a way to do that??
[08:51] <DasEi> keepguessing: which prompt ? cd, usb, floppy.. ?
[08:52] <keepguessing> boot: prompt
[08:53] <keepguessing> DasEi: I am mouting it from the linux boot prompt
[08:54] <Jordan_U> ruby_on_tails: What version of Ubuntu are you using?
[08:54] <ruby_on_tails> 9.04
[08:54] <ruby_on_tails> though how can i check it?
[08:55] <Jordan_U> !version | ruby_on_tails
[08:55] <Jordan_U> ruby_on_tails: If you are using 9.04 then you need to upgrade, 9.04 is no longer supported.
[08:55] <ruby_on_tails> hmm
[08:56] <Viking667> hi all. I have a question about java... I installed the sun version of java from the apt database, but my system is still acting as if it's got to look for openjdk. It's causing trouble when I want to use ant, as ant can't find certain fairly essential commands, javac being one of them.
[08:57] <Viking667> I've noticed a series of _java_.... in my environment, but none of them tell me where the heck java is supposed to be, nor how I can tell the system I want to use Sun's java... what should I do?
[09:00] <eric> hi
[09:00] <Viking667> hey ho, another eric
[09:00] <Jordan_U> Viking667: sudo update-alternatives --config java
[09:00] <Guest34273> lol not anymore
[09:00] <Viking667> ah huh.
[09:00] <Viking667> thanks, Jordan_U
[09:00] <Jordan_U> Viking667: You're welcome.
[09:02] <Viking667> lol. THAT worked.
[09:02] <Viking667> Right... now hopefully I can get my own Google Wave server compiled
[09:05] <Us3r_Unfriendly> weechat is a better with my old eyes
[09:06] <Viking667> Us3r_Unfriendly: I actually prefer irssi for the speed...
[09:06] <Us3r_Unfriendly> Viking667: i agree 100% with you. /connect is faster in irssi
[09:06] <Viking667> I tried weechat, I found it way too slow. Weird, considering it's just a textmode client.
[09:06] <Us3r_Unfriendly> Viking667: you know a way to color map irssi?
[09:06] <Viking667> my weechat tended to be slow in most areas
[09:07] <Viking667> colour map?
[09:07] <Viking667> how do you mean? Sorry, I'm not sure how you use the term.
[09:07] <azbr00> I used colours in mine, but I went to the irssi site and got a script to do it and placed in in autostart or something
[09:08] <Us3r_Unfriendly> weechat kinda color maps every user's comments so it's easier to read.  I haven't dug into too much...funny thing is i've been using irssi for years and now it bothers my eyes
[09:08] <Viking667> ahhh yes.  $HOME/.irssi/
[09:08] <tripelb> Hi I still cant print HP5440jet, new driver fail. 10.04 -- can someone help me now? I've been asking this 2x/day for 2 days. Hoping.
[09:08] <Us3r_Unfriendly> tripelb: what driver are you using?
[09:08] <kukman> hi, people. I have problem with touchpad, which recognize as PS/2 Generic Mouse. I tried all workarround I found in google, but nothing =(
[09:08] <tripelb> Viking667, I like xchat
[09:08] <Viking667> Us3r_Unfriendly: does it colour all of the user's text line? Or just their nicks?
[09:09] <Viking667> tripelb: xchat's no good when the X server falls off...
[09:09] <kukman> on all kernels ( I tried ubuntu 10.04 ) touchpad recognized normally
[09:09] <tripelb> Us3r_Unfriendly, whatever I got from the hp site. let me give you what it is called.
[09:09] <Viking667> And I still prefer irssi
[09:09] <Us3r_Unfriendly> Viking667: it colors users names every time differently when you write making it easier to see your text vs someone elses
[09:09] <tripelb> viking oh. that kills penguin too. I used to use irc (back in the very very old days in the 80's(
[09:10] <tripelb> Us3r_Unfriendly, I am using hplip-3.10.9.run
[09:10] <Us3r_Unfriendly> tripelb: i love command line so much X is just for show...i don't use it so i like weechat and irssi
[09:11] <azbr00> Us3r_Unfriendly: Good on ya!
[09:11] <Us3r_Unfriendly> and that's why i love mplayer :)
[09:11] <Viking667> Us3r_Unfriendly: my irssi colours each nick a different colour out of a palette of about 12 colours
[09:11] <tripelb> Us3r_Unfriendly, understood. I would like to know what I was using back then
[09:11] <Viking667> I use commandline for about 60% of stuff, for the rest I use X
[09:11] <Us3r_Unfriendly> http irc windows
[09:11] <tripelb> Us3r_Unfriendly, I really love VLC because it just works and mplayer sometimes fails.
[09:12] <linux_inferno> I created a Raid1+0 on a Highpoint RocketRaid 7240 that is 3TB. I want to create an optimize XFS file system. I am a bit confused about the sunit and swidth. The card has a chunk size of 512B not Kb. Is my sunit then 512/512=1 and swith 1*numDataDrives=2?
[09:12] <Viking667> ... it's partly why I run twin, because twin has an X client as well as a tty client
[09:12] <Us3r_Unfriendly> tripelb: never had a problem with mplayer...it's a great cli media player
[09:12] <Viking667> tripelb: hah. I've found problems with vlc, where sometimes it won't play certain types of media stream.
[09:12] <tripelb> Us3r_Unfriendly, "unable to open the initial device, quitting" == it will print that.
[09:12] <Us3r_Unfriendly> tripelb: what were you trying to play?
[09:13] <tripelb> Viking667, will lucky you. I cant remember the fault. I just switched and didnt look back.
[09:13] <daanish> does anyone know of a channel or chatroom based on either bash or programming where I can learn a little more about those two things?
[09:13] <tripelb> Viking667, but I think it was audio
[09:13] <Us3r_Unfriendly> tripelb: easiest way is cd'ing to the directory where the music is and typing mplayer *mp3 -shuffle
[09:14] <dnivra> daanish, #bash and ##programming.
[09:14] <tripelb> daanish, haha I went /join #bash and there are lots of folks there. You can be more exploratory like me!
[09:14] <Viking667> tripelb: actually, wasn't quite so lucky. The machine I happened to be on didn't have mplayer at the time...
[09:14] <Viking667> which I soon remedied.
[09:14] <dnivra> daanish, you should really ask channel related enquiries at #freenode.
[09:14] <Us3r_Unfriendly> daanish: also there's plenty of good ppl that made videos on youtube
[09:14] <Viking667> I like -shuffle
[09:14] <Us3r_Unfriendly> Viking667: me too
[09:14] <Viking667> -playlist isn't too bad either
[09:14] <daanish> thanks dnivra, tripelb and Us3r_Unfriendly.
[09:15] <azbr00> Wow, I just learnt something new about mplayer!
[09:15] <Nemesis^> Good day everyone - Does anyone know if there is some form of DNS Hijack in progress on *.archive.ubuntu.com? I'm finding that za.archive.ubuntu.com suddenly resolves to a host in Russia and I'd be a little concerned that I am updating systems from a boobytrapped source ?
[09:15] <Viking667> azbr00: what?
[09:15] <lyj> 这是什么
[09:15] <Us3r_Unfriendly> yeah but        ls -a > *.playlist takes longer
[09:15] <azbr00> Thanks to this topic ;)
[09:15] <tripelb> Us3r_Unfriendly, thanks but I didnt need to do all that. All I was playing was one thing. Ireally cant remember now. I use the gui. Except to install. Synaptic befuddles me. -- but can you teach me how to get more repositories -- in Terminal.
[09:15] <JoeMaverickSett> !cn | lyj
[09:16] <Viking667> Us3r_Unfriendly: hm? I suspect that only has to be done once though...
[09:16] <Viking667> (until you refresh the list, of course, in which case you merely append new entries)
[09:16] <Us3r_Unfriendly> tripelb: add-apt-repository is a good one
[09:16] <Us3r_Unfriendly> tripelb: adding to the software sources is another
[09:17] <tripelb> Us3r_Unfriendly, DO i have to know the name of the repository to do that?
[09:17] <Us3r_Unfriendly> tripelb: or you could go all out and go to /etc/apt/sources.list
[09:17] <Viking667> ... which is what I used to do
[09:17] <tripelb> Us3r_Unfriendly, isnt that the same as adding software sources. I mean isnt a software source another word for repository???
[09:17] <Viking667> until apt-add-repository started working properly for me and adding keys for me
[09:17] <Us3r_Unfriendly> tripelb: yes you'll been to know the ppa for that
[09:17] <Us3r_Unfriendly> unless!
[09:18] <daanish> Can I ask a really newb question regarding bash?
[09:18] <tripelb> WHAT is a PPA?
[09:18] <tripelb> daanish never never ask if you can ask just ask.
[09:18] <Viking667> daanish: go ahead, though n00b questions about bash could also be asked in #bash
[09:18] <Us3r_Unfriendly> tripelb: there might be a package in the repos that has the ability to search for ppa's out there
[09:18] <bullgard> '~$ modinfo ipw2200; filename:  /lib/modules/2.6.35-23-generic/kernel/drivers/net/wireless/ipw2x00/ipw2200.ko'. How can I establish that its associated source code file is /usr/src/linux-source-2.6.35/drivers/net/wireless/ipw2x00/ipw2200.c ?

[09:20] <tripelb> ok I will have to go to windows to print... and ask again another day.
[09:20] <ilker_> hhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii
[09:20] <tripelb> goodnight friends
[09:20] <Us3r_Unfriendly> tripelb: what was your original question?
[09:20] <dnivra> ilker_, hello. you got a query/problem. fire away.
[09:21] <Us3r_Unfriendly> tripelb: you were the one with the printer issue right?
[09:21] <bullgard> Viking667: You are giving wrong advice. #bash is avery newcomer-averse channel.
[09:21] <Nemesis^> Sorry to ask again guys, maybe no-one sawe this? - Does anyone know if there is some form of DNS Hijack in progress on *.archive.ubuntu.com? I'm finding that za.archive.ubuntu.com suddenly resolves to a host in Russia and I'd be a little concerned that I am updating systems from a boobytrapped source ?
[09:22] <Viking667> bullgard: I don't find it to be so.
[09:22] <Viking667> They expect you to know what you're asking about, but so do a lot of channels.
[09:23] <bonjoyee> Nemesis^:works fine here..what is your DNS?
[09:23] <bonjoyee> im using opendns..
[09:23] <Us3r_Unfriendly> rc.d :)
[09:24] <Nemesis^> 196.43.53.190 and 196.43.54.190
[09:24] <Nemesis^> Standard DNS from my ISP
[09:24] <Viking667> Nemesis^: try a dig using google's servers (8.8.8.8)
[09:25] <Nemesis^> Thanks - will do
[09:25] <dnivra> Nemesis^, i doubt the archive.ubuntu.com maintainers would be able to know about a DNS hijack in your ISP's DNS would they? Just a thought.
[09:25] <Us3r_Unfriendly> networking is my weak point.  i need school
[09:25] <Nemesis^> I'm getting the same resolution results from Google as local
[09:26] <Nemesis^> However, it just seems strange that a repository for South Africa would now resolve to a host in Russia ?
[09:26] <tripelb> New question: I try to save on windows drive. It cannot be mounted (even though it shows in Places) because: Windows is hibernated. Huh. I have rebooted more than once since using windows.
[09:26] <Us3r_Unfriendly> tripelb: what was your original question
[09:27] <iromli> hi people, how do i check if an alias is already set?
[09:27] <tripelb> Us3r_Unfriendly, it was about printing. but this is a new question. I was going to save my files on that windows drive.
[09:28] <bonjoyee> Nemesis^:what are the results of dig?
[09:28] <Us3r_Unfriendly> tripelb: you may had to wake your windows
[09:28] <Viking667> and it's been un-hibernated since?
[09:28] <Nemesis^> Bonjoyee - the same as from Google
[09:28] <tripelb> And it was only 3 days ago I stated I have no problems with Ubuntu
[09:28] <bonjoyee> please paste,,,
[09:28] <Us3r_Unfriendly> tripelb: now about the printer...what driver are you using for it on linux?
[09:28] <Viking667> lol. Ubuntu won't mount a hibernated drive...
[09:28] <Us3r_Unfriendly> easy Viking667
[09:28] <tripelb> Viking667, no I havent known anything about hibernation. I havent booted from that particular windows drive in more than a month.
[09:28] <Viking667> anyhow, time I went to bed... night all.
[09:29] <waffel> lol
[09:29] <Us3r_Unfriendly> later Viking667

[09:29] <bonjoyee> Nemesis^: i get 91.189.*.*  from opendns as well as google..
[09:29] <Us3r_Unfriendly> tripelb: lets fix your printer
[09:29] <tripelb> what is a hibernated drive? How do I get it unhibernated. How did it get hibernated in the first place. This is a desktop.
[09:29] <pratz> hey guys, when i use pdb set_trace in my project normally i am in python interactive shell, i need to get in ipython interactive shell, any one using python with ubuntu can help me out
[09:29] <Viking667> Nemesis^: it does say not authoritative...
[09:30] <Nemesis^> Thanks Jordan
[09:30] <tripelb> Us3r_Unfriendly,  I am listening.
[09:30] <Viking667> should point to the ns servers for that, for the auth reply
[09:30] <Visuex> tripelb, didnt you said it was hibernated in the first place?
[09:30] <Jordan_U> Nemesis^: You're welcome.
[09:30] <Viking667> err, authoritative reply

[09:32] <mikeplus64> Anyone here use a Wacom Bamboo Pen & Touch ( Wacom CTH-460 ) ? I'm wondering if it works under Linux [ and if it's worth buying? ]
[09:32] <Visuex> tripelb, is your hibernated drive setup as a boot drive such as dual booting with multiple drives instead of multiple partitions?
[09:32] <tripelb> Us3r_Unfriendly == that's a VERY long result. help me
[09:33] <dnivra> Nemesis^, no problem. in future do read the channel topic :).
[09:33] <EvilPhoenix> mikeplus64:  it works, but it takes a bit of configuration
[09:33] <Us3r_Unfriendly> tripelb: for the hibernation > go to the hibernating machine and turn it on
[09:33] <Nemesis^> Will do dnivra ;)
[09:33] <Nemesis^> Nive touch, that paste.ubuntu.com
[09:33] <Us3r_Unfriendly> tripelb: there should also be devices connected to the machine in that list
[09:33] <EvilPhoenix> mikeplus64:  there's guides to make it work on ubuntuforums.org: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1515562&highlight=wacom
[09:34] <Visuex> Nemesis^, yea there are many paste services like that but very nice for Ubuntu to have its own
[09:34] <tripelb> Visuex, seems Us3r_Unfriendly gave me tha answer. And for you, I have 2 drives and 3 partitions. grub shows me them all (plus a lot of other options I ddidnt bother remembering)
[09:34] <EvilPhoenix> mikeplus64:  whoops, i forgot to remove the &highlight part of that link
[09:34] <bonjoyee> Nemesis^: http://pastebin.com/BCPzsrNh ..that looks normal to me..
[09:34] <Visuex> tripelb, cool glad you got it then
[09:35] <Nemesis^> Thanks for everyone's feedback on the DNS. Looks like I don't need to worry. Just crappy that my local mirror seems to have a problem - it's not very cool to do a dist-upgrade without an operational local mirror :(
[09:35] <mikeplus64> EvilPhoenix: I don't run ubuntu ( I run arch, I just thought that seeing that there are so many people here someone must know about wacom bamboo pen & touches ), but thanks, most of that will probably be relevant here unless it works out of the box.
[09:35] <tripelb> I have to sleep Us3r_Unfriendly - the list is too long to look at all of. it's full of devices, many screens long.
[09:35] <tripelb> Visuex, thank you.
[09:35] <Us3r_Unfriendly> tripelb: later
[09:35] <EvilPhoenix> mikeplus64:  it wont work out of the box, trust me.  you should ask in the arch support channels then
[09:35] <EvilPhoenix> mikeplus64:  or try ##linux
[09:36] <EvilPhoenix> mikeplus64:  because you need to do configuration long before it works
[09:36] <EvilPhoenix> mikeplus64:  it took me 3 hours to make it work, but i was looking at system fialures anyways.
[09:36] <Us3r_Unfriendly> hat off to you tripelb
[09:36] <EvilPhoenix> failures*
[09:36] <mikeplus64> EvilPhoenix: alright
[09:36] <mikeplus64> I just thought after seeing https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=109198 just then that it might
[09:36] <Nemesis^> So just to make sure that I get theis pastebin thing right - I paste on the site and then post the URL, like http://paste.ubuntu.com/544353/ ?
[09:37] <tripelb> Us3r_Unfriendly, theres no lpt in the list  | grub lpt
[09:37] <EvilPhoenix> mikeplus64:  *shrugs* the drivers dont come with any version of linux out-of-the-box
[09:37] <EvilPhoenix> mikeplus64:  it usually needs configuration, or installation
[09:37] <dnivra> Nemesis^, yup.
[09:37] <tripelb> Us3r_Unfriendly, its almost 9 screens long
[09:38] <EvilPhoenix> mikeplus64:  i think though you should ask in the linux support channel for arch if you run into issues.
[09:38] <mikeplus64> EvilPhoenix: yarp, just wanted to see if people had it working at all
[09:38] <tripelb> Us3r_Unfriendly, the driver is called hplip-3.10.9.run  ok that's the install routine.
[09:38] <EvilPhoenix> mikeplus64:  i did 2 kernel versions ago, before my drive became fubar
[09:38] <mikeplus64> EvilPhoenix: Is it worth getting the pen & touch or just the pen only model?
[09:38] <Visuex> mikeplus64, good luck with arch...not the most user friendly bunch
[09:38] <tnm_> how do i set custom paper siye in ubuntu? i'm using hp 500n laserjet prinet
[09:39] <EvilPhoenix> mikeplus64:  i have the pen only version.  they're equally decent
[09:39] <Us3r_Unfriendly> tripelb: http://www.freesoftwaremagazine.com/articles/printing_ubuntu
[09:39] <mikeplus64> EvilPhoenix: alright.
[09:39] <EvilPhoenix> mikeplus64:  i prefer the pen version somewhat, but to each their own
[09:39] <acnot> Sorry all wrong channel
[09:39] <tripelb> Us3r_Unfriendly,
[09:39] <mikeplus64> EvilPhoenix: yeah. I was just thinking that the touch part of it might be useful for things other than just drawing.
[09:40] <tripelb> Us3r_Unfriendly, wait shouldnt I be doing lsusb to find out about the printer?
[09:40] <EvilPhoenix> mikeplus64:  true, but i use the pen for standard navigation with a mouse too ;P
[09:40] <EvilPhoenix> mikeplus64:  but again, whichever you want, there's configuration needed anyways
[09:40] <tripelb> Bus 002 Device 002: ID 03f0:8604 Hewlett-Packard DeskJet 5440
[09:41] <tripelb> Us3r_Unfriendly, Bus 002 Device 002: ID 03f0:8604 Hewlett-Packard DeskJet 5440
[09:41] <Us3r_Unfriendly> tripelb: yes that'll work
[09:42] <Us3r_Unfriendly> tripelb: but does lshw display the printer along with a driver name?
[09:43] <glitchd> anyone know any possible underlying reasons why flash refuses to work in chromium?
[09:43] <tripelb> Us3r_Unfriendly, this -- sudo lshw | grep DeskJet -- gives me nothing. Is that enough? I dont know where to look in the 9 screens of output
[09:43] <teamcoltra> is there a way to make my screen dimmer than the lowest setting in power management? Obviously the system knows how to make my screen dimmer since it goes dim before going to screensaver
[09:45] <Deiu> Hello! I would like to have my boot process sleep for a period of time before mounting all filesystems, is it possible?
[09:45] <Deiu> i.e. I'm trying to mount /var off an external disk which takes some time to initialize
[09:46] <Eryn_1983_FL> ok peeps i need somehelp wtih gurb
[09:46] <Eryn_1983_FL>  grub

[09:46] <Eryn_1983_FL> how do i install grub2?
[09:46] <Eryn_1983_FL> is there an option in the  boot dvd?
[09:46] <bullgard> !grub | Eryn_1983_FL
[09:47] <teamcoltra> I press Fnc + down and it only adjusts the setting that is in power management (so I still can't go any lower)

[09:50] <henrik-_> Hi guys! My Ubuntu server is struggling - when I'm trying to boot I get a fsck error 8
[09:50] <kermit> how do i keep my CPU speed to performance?  it keeps resetting to ondemand.
[09:51] <henrik-_> As far as I see, that's an "operational error"
[09:51] <henrik-_> What does that really mean? Is my hard drive dying?

[09:55] <teamcoltra> I just tried "gamma -0.5" which darkens my colours -- but does not adjust screen brightness (as they lead to believe in the forum post)
[09:55] <nirazio> My laptop has three extra keys, For Opening Mail client, Web browser and one other. I dont use them, so I want to assign the the web browser key to open synapse, currently I use Super+Space to open Synapse but now that I don't use the extra key given to open the web browser, I want to assign that key to open synapse, Is it possible?
[10:00] <razz1> what is the most popular game that I can install from synaptic, I like to play some racing games between work. just after some fun
[10:01] <waffel> well there's a good strategy game, but I don't know about racing
[10:01] <razz1> waffel: which one?
[10:01] <maco> razz1: tuxracer for racing
[10:02] <maco> razz1: and probably wesnoth for strategy
[10:02] <Jordan_U> razz1: Armegatron (tron light cycle game) is among the featured apps in Applications > Ubuntu Software Center (and I like it personally).
[10:03] <riktking> trying to port forward VNC connection from server->server->windows pc, have ssh all set up, vnc on middle server, can ssh between all 3
[10:04] <razz1> maco: tuxracer, is it about racing a penguin down a mountain
[10:04] <maco> razz1: yeah
[10:04] <maco> razz1: well race against the clock... and you have to get the herring
[10:04] <maco> gameplay is similar to those snowboarding games
[10:05] <razz1> maco: I should have been clear, after a car racing, played tuxracer, it's fun
[10:05] <maco> oh
[10:05] <riktking> trying to port forward VNC connection from server->server->windows pc, have ssh all set up, vnc on middle server, can ssh between all 3, cannot forward 5900 between servers, can anyone help me??
[10:06] <waffel> razz1: hmm, have to get the name, I'll find it here within the next couple of hours
[10:06] <razz1> maco:  there are so many games to choose from, that why I came here to get the list of most popular games
[10:06] <maco> razz1: there's an ubuntu games website i think...
[10:06] <razz1> waffel: thank you
[10:07] <maco> razz1: actually i once came across one site that went through every game in the repos and described and rated it
[10:07] <riktking> keep getting this, can anyone help channel_setup_fwd_listener: cannot listen to port: 5900
[10:07] <tnm_> anybody knows, how do i change, so i can print custom paper size in adobe reader?
[10:07] <maco> razz1: supertuxkart is like mariokart
[10:07] <EvilPhoenix> riktking:  it means something's probly using that port
[10:08] <razz1> riktking: can you post the command you are trying to use and tell us what all systems are behind NAT, most of the time it fails because of NAT
[10:08] <waffel> razz1: there's also UFO: Alien invasion, that game is awesome
[10:08] <razz1> waffel: maco: some of the games are so addictive
[10:09] <Jordan_U> razz1: Torcs and Trigger are the only traditional 3D car racing games that I know of.
[10:09] <riktking> ssh -L 5900:127.0.0.1:5999 192.168.0.104
[10:09] <riktking> i can ssh into the server , but will not port forward
[10:09] <riktking> do i need to edit the ssh config files??
[10:09] <rigved> razz1: playdeb has many games
[10:10] <razz1> riktking: if you can SSh, you do not need to port forward VNC, it runs inside the tunnel
[10:11] <Sam_eYe_am> I'm having trouble playing a video. No plugin for Mpeg-4. How do I fix this please?
[10:11] <c0nv1ct> is there a way to solve the /sys/class/hwmon/hwmon# roulette after each reboot?  Some boots my mobo sensor module is hwmon4 and sometimes it is hwmon0
[10:11] <riktking> razz1 so from putty, i connect to server 1, then server 1 to server 2 via ssh
[10:11] <dnivra> !codecs | Sam_eYe_am
[10:11] <waffel> razz1: haha! I found it, Warzone 2100 is the name, it's a hell of a game. Better than most comercial RTS I've tried! ;) Once you get the hang of it you'll like it
[10:11] <rigved> !info ubuntu-restricted-extras | Sam_eYe_am
[10:12] <rigved> Sam_eYe_am: ^^ just install that and you can play mpeg-4 videos
[10:13] <razz1> rigved: waffel: maco: i will try warzone for now, that should keep me occupied for a while, playing trigger now, thanks guys
[10:13] <Sam_eYe_am> rigved, I checked and it is installed
[10:14] <Sam_eYe_am> rigved, won't play flv either
[10:14] <Sam_eYe_am> rigved, H.264 decoder needed
[10:14] <rigved> razz1: if you are more into RTS games, then there's Wesnoth.

[10:15] <l337ingDisorder> Is there some trick to get gFTP to connect to HTTP sites? I've put the host and port into the connection bar at the top, and I've selected HTTP as the connection method... When I click the Connect button, absolutely nothing happens. When I choose Remote -> Open Location nothing happens... But if I put the host info into my firefox web browser it loads just fine
[10:15] <DrManhattan> What would be the best RAID chunk size for an Ubuntu i386 32 bit desktop system?
[10:15] <DrManhattan> I'm hoping to do some video editing with it
[10:16] <DrManhattan> my max chunk/slice size available is 512k
[10:16] <rigved> Sam_eYe_am: some flash videos don't play in ubuntu. maybe you have more than one flash plugins installed
[10:17] <riktking> im trying to tunnel vnc via 2 ssh connections, can it be done and can anyone help?
[10:17] <Sam_eYe_am> rigved, fresh install
[10:17] <c0nv1ct> DrManhattan, you want smaller chunks for video editing
[10:17] <DrManhattan> uh oes.
[10:17] <DrManhattan> how small?
[10:18] <c0nv1ct> DrManhattan, 8kb or less
[10:18] <DrManhattan> wow
[10:18] <c0nv1ct> DrManhattan, read the article yourself
[10:18] <DrManhattan> to spread the write process out?
[10:18] <c0nv1ct> DrManhattan, http://www.zdnet.com/blog/storage/chunks-the-hidden-key-to-raid-performance/130
[10:18] <rigved> Sam_eYe_am: run the file from the command line and then tell me if it gives any more info
[10:19] <c0nv1ct> DrManhattan, large I/O requests benefit from smaller chunks
[10:19] <DrManhattan> c0nv1ct, thanks
[10:19] <Sam_eYe_am> rigved, PLease tell me how to run it from command line. I have terminal open
[10:19] <Igoru> i've installed 8GB in my computer, but gnome system monitor and htop says i have only 3GB. what's happening??
[10:19] <DrManhattan> aw man, I'm going to have to reformat my drive if I change the chunk size, aren't I?
[10:20] <dnivra> Igoru, you're running 32 bit Ubuntu i guess.
[10:20] <rigved> Sam_eYe_am: totem <filename>
[10:20] <Igoru> dnivra yes. can u explain a bit more?
[10:21] <dnivra> Igoru, well 32 bits can be used to references to only 3GB of addresses. you need to install the 64 bit version of ubuntu
[10:21] <c0nv1ct> DrManhattan, yep
[10:21] <Sam_eYe_am> rigved, hmmm location not found? I even went to the Videos folder.
[10:22] <PhysicistJames> or you can use the PAE kernel to access more than 3GB or ram
[10:22] <DrManhattan> (best Cartman impression) Weak....
[10:22] <razz1> riktking: from the second system you would ssh into third and redirect the vnc feed to the first for eg on the second system: ssh -L 5900:this has to be your second systems IP:5999 192.168.0.104
[10:22] <rigved> Sam_eYe_am: suppose that your file is ~/Videos/Sam.mp4
[10:23] <rigved> Sam_eYe_am: totem ~/Videos/Sam.mp4
[10:23] <DrManhattan> c0nv1ct, thanks fo the help
[10:23] <dnivra> Igoru, As PhysicistJames said, yes you can use the PAE kernel but then when you have a 64 bit version, wouldn't that be the practical choice?
[10:23] <Igoru> dnivra undestand. T_T there's any better way than reinstalling SO? haha
[10:23] <Sam_eYe_am> rigved, I just hit tab to avoid typos and that was the error
[10:23] <Sam_eYe_am> rigved, is there a way to refresh all codecs?
[10:24] <rigved> Sam_eYe_am: are you sure that the file is inside the Videos folder?
[10:24] <Igoru> dnivra yes... i would need to reinstall and i'm afraid of that. but using that 'PAE kernel' is difficult? i'm almost noob at this.
[10:24] <Sam_eYe_am> rigved, yes I even tried another folder and file type and same error
[10:24] <llutz_> IdleOne: just install that kernel and use it, no further action needed
[10:24] <dnivra> Igoru, http://www.cyberciti.biz/faq/ubuntu-linux-4gb-ram-limitation-solution/ would help.
[10:24] <razz1> riktking: you will only use localhost only when hitting the second system not the third, on the second system what ever feed you are getting you want to re-route it to first so on the second it cannot be 127.0.0.1, that is internal IP.
[10:24] <Igoru> ty! :D
[10:25] <dnivra> llutz_, um not IdleOne Igoru :).
[10:25] <rigved> Sam_eYe_am: have you installed a display manager?
[10:25] <PhysicistJames> i have a simple question.... how can i look up the log files when my instance of ubuntu 10.10 crashes
[10:25] <llutz_> argh, sry, idoru  i meant
[10:25] <rigved> razz1: check via GUI whether that folder exists
[10:25] <Sam_eYe_am> rigved, like Nvidia?
[10:25] <dnivra> PhysicistJames, i guess /var/log
[10:26] <rigved> Sam_eYe_am: like Gnome or KDE
[10:26] <dnivra> PhysicistJames, specifically /var/log/messages i guess.
[10:26] <PhysicistJames> thanks dnivra
[10:26] <dnivra> llutz_, you seem to be getting names all wrong :).
[10:26] <rigved> Sam_eYe_am: can you navigate to your folder using the mouse pointer?
[10:26] <Igoru> dnivra MAN thats easy! ty!
[10:26] <Igoru> PhysicistJames ty too =D
[10:26] <palam> for an intel core 2 duo, should i get the 32bit version or 64bit version?
[10:26] <Sam_eYe_am> rigved, sure
[10:26] <JustMozzy> hi guys
[10:27] <rigved> Sam_eYe_am: ceck to make sure that the folder exists
[10:27] <dnivra> Igoru, np. but let me tell you that i was recommended not to use PAE and use 64 bit-common sense :)
[10:27] <PhysicistJames> 64bit i believe
[10:27] <llutz_> dnivra: i'll better  shut up now
[10:27] <rigved> Sam_eYe_am: check*
[10:27] <Sam_eYe_am> rigved, Oh I had it open in front of me
[10:27] <dnivra> palam, depends on how much RAM you have i guess. if >3GB, go for 64.
[10:27] <JustMozzy> I am having a problem accessing a website. I am trying to access my website through port 81. I check the server betstat and apache is listening to port 81, however when I nmap the port it is filtered. can someone help me out with this issue?
[10:27] <zetheroo> anyone here had luck with batch resizing of pics with Gthumb ? ... This is the dump I get in trying to accomplish this simple task: http://paste.ubuntu.com/544372/
[10:27] <pilgrim> anyone knowwhy intel wimax 6050 driver wont work?
[10:27] <palam> dnivra: 2. so 32 bit then? should i be worried about http://webapps.ubuntu.com/certification/hardware/201004-5594/?
[10:28] <rigved> Sam_eYe_am: that's weird. so you cannot access the folder via terminal but you can access it via the GUI?
[10:28] <dnivra> llutz_, don't get disheartened-it is pretty difficult to see all over the clutter :).
[10:28] <PhysicistJames> choosing 64bit over 32bit shouldnt be an issue of ram size
[10:28] <dnivra> PhysicistJames, oh! it isn't? what's the reason to choose one over other?
[10:28] <palam> PhysicistJames: what should i base it on?
[10:28] <Sam_eYe_am> rigved, well since TAB filled it out wouldn't that mean it was there?
[10:29] <dnivra> palam, well if ubuntu states 64bit, go 64bit :). they're better than i am any day :).
[10:29] <rigved> Sam_eYe_am: you just told me that tab was unable to fill it out, right?
[10:29] <rigved> Sam_eYe_am: location not found error...
[10:30] <DrManhattan> c0nv1ct, I guess it would make sense to make the chunk size match the block size of the file system, no?
[10:30] <PhysicistJames> isnt there some architecture things with 64bit
[10:30] <error_203> hi  my desktop ubuntu login screen doesnot shows paasword box.how to resolve this
[10:30] <dnivra> PhysicistJames, i have no clue-so totally hate hardware :).
[10:31] <dnivra> error_203, perhaps you should click on the username?
[10:31] <error_203> dnivra: no i tried it all
[10:31] <palam> PhysicistJames: not sure. i'm going to be using it as a web dev machine. php, ruby, aptana etc. 64 should work right?
[10:31] <dnivra> error_203, what happens? you get logged in straight without being asked for the password?
[10:31] <Sam_eYe_am> rigved, No it filled it out. Another test I just did. Copied known good .avi to desktop. got search for plugin
[10:31] <Sam_eYe_am> rigved, doing the command line
[10:31] <PhysicistJames> yeah it should
[10:32] <PhysicistJames> did a quick check and 64bit allows yo
[10:32] <dnivra> PhysicistJames, palam here's something interesting. http://www.cyberciti.biz/faq/linux-how-to-find-if-processor-is-64-bit-or-not/
[10:32] <error_203> dnivra: no m on laptop i m asking about my desktop
[10:32] <Sam_eYe_am> rigved, tells me I need Xvid Mpeg4
[10:32] <rigved> Sam_eYe_am: what was the name of the plugin again? H...something
[10:32] <PhysicistJames> allows programs to allocate more than 2 gn file cjuncks in ram
[10:32] <rigved> Sam_eYe_am: i mean the name of the required codec
[10:32] <Sam_eYe_am> rigved, it tells me I need one for every file I try
[10:32] <error_203> dnivra: i think there is a gdm problem but i cannot reolve it
[10:32] <dnivra> error_203, well if you can describe what is exactly that's happening, then somebody can help out. you're pretty vague i can tell you that.
[10:33] <Igoru> dnivra when i have a bit more time i'll install 64. i'm still using 9.10 'cos didnt had time to update and 'deal with problems' T_T
[10:33] <palam> PhysicistJames: problem is i don't have the computer with me yet
[10:33] <Sam_eYe_am> rigved, maybe I don't have a repository checked off?
[10:34] <Sam_eYe_am> rigved, like Medibuntu?
[10:34] <dnivra> error_203, next time see if restarting gdm solves the problem. press Ctrl + Alt + F1 and login. then run "sudo service gdm restart". see if that helps. else come back here and describe exactly what is wrong.
[10:34] <rigved> Sam_eYe_am: i have installed only ubuntu-restricted-extras and all .avi and .mpg files can be played by me
[10:34] <dnivra> Igoru, sure sure. i did the same thing-switched to 64bit when i changed versions :). up to you :).
[10:35] <rigved> Sam_eYe_am: no. i mean for the first mpeg-4 file, it had asked you to install something like H.234 etc. what was the name again?
[10:35] <palam> PhysicistJames: think i'll go with 32: http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-450532.html
[10:35] <error_203> dnivra: simply when i put my comp on and went to login my password dialouge box was  missing, i had clicked on username but it also didn't work
[10:36] <dnivra> error_203, what happened when you clicked? didn't a box to enter a password come? which version of ubuntu are you running?
[10:36] <rigved> Sam_eYe_am: re-download and re-install the package - ubuntu-restricted-extras. it's about 95-100 MB
[10:36] <error_203> 10.10
[10:37] <Sam_eYe_am> rigved, so it's like sudo ubuntu-restricted-extras?
[10:37] <pavanai> i cant boot to ubuntu after installin win7
[10:37] <error_203> dnivra:10.10
[10:37] <pavanai> help!!!
[10:37] <PhysicistJames> when you remove the ubuntu restricted extras package make sure that you completely remove it including the config files
[10:37] <JustMozzy> can someone help me with iptables? I am looking for I can allow all connections to port 81
[10:38] <dnivra> palam, well sure a few things like adobe flash plugin are kind of hard to-64bit is still in beta but otherwise the system's quite stable i guess. i'm running 64bit. hey even ubottu runs on a 64bit too i believe.
[10:38] <pavanai> justmozzy
[10:38] <pavanai> pls
[10:38] <pavanai> i think ma grub is corrupted
[10:38] <dnivra> pavanai, did you install windows 7 after you installed ubuntu?
[10:38] <dnivra> error_203, what happens when you click on the username?
[10:38] <pavanai> first i installed ubuntu
[10:38] <pavanai> then win7
[10:38] <the_eye_> I have an ATI X700 and I cant enable tv-out, any help ?
[10:38] <dnivra> !grub2 | pavanai
[10:39] <palam> dnivra: but there's nothing to be gained with 64 bit in my case, i guess. flash and drivers are pretty important too
[10:39] <rigved> Sam_eYe_am: sudo apt-get purge ubuntu-restricted-extras && apt-get install ubuntu-restricted-extras
[10:39] <pavanai> i tried many weblinks
[10:39] <error_203> dnivra: one min m staring my pc
[10:39] <pavanai> all they say that when we give in terminal sudo grub we vil get grub prompt
[10:39] <pavanai> bt am not getting it
[10:40] <pavanai> i tried the live
[10:40] <dnivra> pavanai, please go to the link that ubottu gave you. it has detailed step by step instructions on how to recover grub.
[10:40] <rigved> pavanai: you need to use the live cd and restore grub using it
[10:40] <Sam_eYe_am> rigved, thanks
[10:41] <rigved> Sam_eYe_am: did it work?
[10:41] <Sam_eYe_am> rigved, I see the error that I can't lock the /var/lib/dpkg so I will have to fix that again
[10:42] <palam> hmm, is 10.04.1 718.9MB or 686MB? i tried downloading in two places and I'm getting different file sizes
[10:42] <palam> desktop 10.04.1
[10:42] <PhysicistJames> 686 mb
[10:42] <rigved> Sam_eYe_am: it seems that you were installing something earlier and the lock file wasn't released after the operation was finished (or not finished)
[10:42] <Sam_eYe_am> rigved, yes
[10:43] <PhysicistJames> do a restart and youre golden
[10:43] <palam> PhysicistJames: thanks
[10:43] <pavanai> i tried every link
[10:43] <pavanai> can u xplain the procedure?
[10:43] <rigved> Sam_eYe_am: ok. after you do that then you should run the command which i gave you. it'll work after that
[10:44] <dnivra> pavanai, did you try the official documentation of GRUB2 in the ubuntu help website? sure you haven't. cos if you have, you'd have restored your grub2 successfully.
[10:44] <Sam_eYe_am> rigved, thanks a million! Do you think this lockout is why I can't just get plugins?
[10:44] <pavanai> wts d cmd?
[10:44] <dnivra> pavanai, grub/grub2 depending on the version of ubuntu you have installed.
[10:44] <dnivra> !grub2 | pavanai
[10:44] <pavanai> i got it with ubuntu 10.04
[10:44] <dnivra> !grub | pavanai
[10:45] <dnivra> pavanai, go here https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Grub2.
[10:45] <rigved> Sam_eYe_am: this lockout is why you cannot install anything properly. maybe your plugins as well.
[10:45] <pinecone> how do i manually install a kernel module, i have the .ko loaded, but i want modprobe to be able to find it
[10:45] <Sam_eYe_am> rigved, ok thanks
[10:45] <rigved> Sam_eYe_am: you are welcome
[10:45] <pavanai> ok
[10:47] <error_203> dnivra:on clicking on username it shows  sqeeze/sid   and when i going to click on  the restart or shutdown option it also doesnot works
[10:47] <noobie25> i've been having trouble dual screening my ubuntu installation (10.10).... funny thing is...i never thought kubuntu (10.10) would solve the problem but it works.....  is there a way i can see what is different and apply these changes to ubuntu?
[10:48] <PhysicistJames> are you using an nvodia or ati card
[10:48] <PhysicistJames> nvidia
[10:48] <noobie25> ati
[10:48] <PhysicistJames> which card specifically
[10:49] <noobie25> PhysicistJames,   sure..its the radeon 9600[rv350]
[10:49] <dnivra> error_203, sqeeze/sid or squeeze/sid?
[10:49] <PhysicistJames> card supported under the catalyst drivers should support dual screen
[10:49] <noobie25> PhysicistJames,  the trouble i had was.... on the extended screen (half of the screen was scrambled)
[10:49] <Guest39094> ...
[10:49] <tnm_> anybody knows how do i set custom page size in my .ppd file for specific printer?
[10:50] <PhysicistJames> my radeon 9000 doesnt do dual screen very well
[10:50] <noobie25> PhysicistJames,   no one was able to fix it over the last threee days.
[10:50] <PhysicistJames> so i believe its an open source ati driver issue
[10:50] <noobie25> PhysicistJames,  its funny how it work perfectly in kubuntu though?  i figured i would have the same problem.
[10:51] <PhysicistJames> it might be an xorg config thing
[10:51] <PhysicistJames> i looked up the flags for xorg for my card and played with the xorg file you might try the same
[10:52] <noobie25> PhysicistJames,  i dont even have an xorg file though ..... =/
[10:52] <axad> greetings
[10:52] <PhysicistJames> google how to generate a new xorg file in ubuntu 10.10
[10:53] <melvster> quick question : is there a group of people within ubuntu, interested in using productivity tools collaboratively?
[10:53] <PhysicistJames> its what i did
[10:53] <rigved> pinecone: insmod ./<kernel_module_name.ko>
[10:53] <error_203> dnivra:squeeze/sid
[10:53] <melvster> is the forum the best place to check?
[10:53] <PhysicistJames> error_203 are you using debian
[10:54] <error_203> no
[10:54] <axad> ho know how to install mac os x under ubuntu?
[10:54] <dnivra> error_203, cos squeeze and sid are codenames for debian version i believe.
[10:54] <error_203> physicistjames:no ubuntu 10.10
[10:54] <PhysicistJames> just curious whats up with the squeeze/sid stuff
[10:54] <noobie25> PhysicistJames, error 203...are you asking me?
[10:55] <error_203> m asking all of u my friends
[10:55] <noobie25> PhysicistJames,  i'm using this xchat new irc client...but it doesn't tell me if a message is direced to me
[10:55] <dnivra> noobie25, sure it does. if it's addressed to you it'll be shown in red like this one.
[10:55] <noobie25> dnivra,   oh!
[10:55] <noobie25> dnivra, thanks
[10:55] <dnivra> noobie25, np :).
[10:55] <PhysicistJames> dnivra i believe youre correct
[10:57] <dnivra> error_203, i have no clue why that error is being shown. all i know is ubuntu is based on debian so it might be some code the devs didn't remove that still retained the original name(doubt it). but this is confusing :).
[10:57] <dnivra> PhysicistJames, yeah just checked. Debian sid i was sure. squeeze is too.
[10:57] <PhysicistJames> vert
[10:57] <PhysicistJames> very
[10:57] <error_203> physicisttjames,dnivra: actually i was going for update my ubuntu 10.10 to ubuntu alpha 11.04 ,and i locked my screen in the process of updating,after sometime when i going to unlock the screen it shows squeeze/sid
[10:57] <rigved> squeeze is the unstable branch i think. that's where most of ubuntu comes from!!!
[10:58] <dnivra> error_203, there we go. you're trying to run ubuntu 11.04! head to #ubuntu+1 for 11.04 support :).
[10:58] <PhysicistJames> error_203 yeah alpha releases always show up like that
[10:59] <dnivra> error_203, alpha releases are very very buggy and only developers should even bother installing them. i suggest if you don't plan development, revert to 10.10. i think you may have to reinstall.
[11:00] <PhysicistJames> error_203 i have to agree with dnivra on this one theyre very buggy
[11:00] <error_203> physicistjames,dnivra: but the problems comes on uubuntu 10.10 and afterall 11.04 didnot  not installed,so i think u guys should help me and don't see me let to go to other channels
[11:00] <dnivra> rigved, oh! thansk for the info; didn't know squeeze was still under development. gotta find out.
[11:00] <dnivra> thanks*
[11:01] <dnivra> error_203, did you have this problem before you tried installing 11.04?
[11:01] <andrewfree> so I updated my computer like full system update and now when booting I get mount: mount on none /dev/ failed says later it cant find the disk by UID either then opens a busybox shell (ash) except now my keyboard is not being reckonized
[11:01] <error_203> dnivra: no
[11:01] <dnivra> error_203, i think you may already have installed 11.04 then :).
[11:01] <PhysicistJames> it might be something from the failed install
[11:02] <andrewfree> PhysicistJames: Yea I figured. What are my options from here? After the install I did do a normal reboot but after that I did a hard reboot
[11:02] <dnivra> error_203, thing is that alpha means the take the old version and make changes to it. did you know 11.04 is not going to use GNOME any more. I'm guessing they've not removed GNOME yet.
[11:02] <andrewfree> PhysicistJames: Like just flipped the power swtcih on the PSU
[11:03] <rigved> error_203: i think sudo is broken in 11.04. and also the package manager is going crazy
[11:03] <error_203> dnivra:ya i know it
[11:03] <dnivra> error_203, alpha is a software engineering terminology. you might wanna read about it.
[11:03] <PhysicistJames> reinstall 10.10
[11:03] <dnivra> error_203, alpha is a part of*
[11:03] <error_203> physicitjames
[11:04] <andrewfree> PhysicistJames:  Is there any way to not lose all my data?
[11:04] <PhysicistJames> it depends how do you have your partitioning set up
[11:05] <PhysicistJames> is it the default ubuntu partitioning?
[11:06] <andrewfree> PhysicistJames: yes
[11:06] <PhysicistJames> when I do a reinstall I usually back everything up that is important onto an external hard drive
[11:07] <andrewfree> it was just an upgrade
[11:07] <charmant> #ubuntu
[11:08] <error_203> dnivra:  i checked my version using lsb_release -a it shows debian  ubuntu natty
[11:08] <dnivra> error_203, well as rigved said natty is being developed from squeeze, which is debian's current development version.
[11:09] <error_203> dnivra: so i have to reinstall ubuntu 10.10
[11:09] <PhysicistJames> yep reinstall ubuntu 10.10
[11:09] <dnivra> error_203, yeah seems to me like the only way out.
[11:10] <dnivra> error_203, didn't PhysicistJames already tell you that? i thought he did.
[11:10] <ChrisHiss> hi is it possible to install an older version of java? currently i have version 1.6.0_22 but i want 1.6.0_7, using ubuntu 10.04 64-bit
[11:10] <error_203> dnivra,physicistjames: ok dude
[11:10] <error_203> dnivra,physicistjames:thanx for giving time
[11:11] <dnivra> ChrisHiss, if you get the deb packages from sun's website i guess yeah-the current version should be the only one available in the repositories i think.
[11:11] <dnivra> error_203, np :)
[11:11] <PhysicistJames> what I would like to know also is if there's a way to install older versions from the ubuntu repository using apt get
[11:12] <ChrisHiss> dnivra: ok so only the latest version of java is available through apt-get?
[11:12] <dnivra> PhysicistJames, i doubt it cos the binaries of older versions won't be built on current ubuntu. i think they'd just choose the latest version and build it.
[11:13] <dnivra> ChrisHiss, i think only latest version yeah. check if you can get older versions from sun's website.
[11:13] <PhysicistJames> but is there like a repository that contains all versions of a specific package
[11:13] <ChrisHiss> dnivra: ok thanks for your help!
[11:13] <dnivra> ChrisHiss, no problem :).
[11:14] <dnivra> PhysicistJames, i'm guessing upstream would still have the source of older versions. and repositories of older versions of ubuntu will have the older version of the package i guess. but i wouldn't recommend installing from them cos they may not work and also would have more bugs that current versions.
[11:14] <rigved> PhysicistJames: then you need to use repositories of older ubuntu versions like 9.10
[11:15] <PhysicistJames> I was just curious
[11:15] <dnivra> PhysicistJames, or you could take the older version and build it in the present ubuntu :).
[11:16] <PhysicistJames> from source yeah I guess that would work
[11:17] <askcyber> hi
[11:19] <abot> hi people
[11:21] <kermit> how do i keep my CPU at full speed? it keeps resetting to ondemand.
[11:21] <maco> kermit: hate your battery that much?
[11:22] <andrewfree> My computer is saying the kernel requires an x86-64 CPU, but only detected an i686 cpu unable to boot
[11:22] <kermit> maco: i'm not even on battery
[11:22] <maco> andrewfree: that means you have a 32bit computer and downloaded the 64bit ubuntu
[11:22] <jrib> andrewfree: use the 32bit version of ubuntu
[11:23] <andrewfree> I shouldnt of updated
[11:23] <andrewfree> I was at like 9.0 or something
[11:23] <Beelsebob> I have an old Pentium M 1.73Ghz laptop that I'm setting up for someone to use as an internet browsing machine… Am I better sticking the netbook release on it, or should I stick with the standard one?
[11:23] <dnivra> andrewfree, 9.10?
[11:23] <andrewfree> dngr: yea
[11:23] <andrewfree> dnivra: Yes*
[11:23] <maco> andrewfree: upgraded with a cd, i guess? cuz upgrading over the network wouldnt change your architecture
[11:25] <jbangert> Hey, I reinstalled my NVIDIA MCP 51 based system (worked before on 10.04) with 10.10 and the wired ethernet does not work. Seems to  be a problem with forcedeth, the interface does not change to RUNNING when I plug in a cable
[11:25] <jbangert> DMESG gives  eth0: no link during initialization.
[11:25] <jbangert> [  614.268467] ADDRCONF(NETDEV_UP): eth0: link is not ready
[11:26] <andrewfree> maco no it was over the internet...
[11:26] <dnivra> jbangert, perhaps the interface is not up? type "ifconfig" and see if the eth interface shows up.
[11:27] <dnivra> andrewfree, then you were running 64bit before?
[11:27] <andrewfree> I think my processor is an amd athlon xp2200+
[11:28] <jbangert> dnivra : ifconfig status is  UP BROADCAST MULTICAST
[11:28] <dnivra> andrewfree, use this to find if the processor is 32bit or 64bit. www.cyberciti.biz/faq/linux-how-to-find-if-processor-is-64-bit-or-not/.
[11:28] <lenovo> xp2200+ is so old.
[11:28] <jrib> andrewfree: what *exactly* did you do to upgrade?
[11:28] <jbangert> I only miss running
[11:28] <andrewfree> dnivra: My computer doesnt boot.
[11:29] <dnivra> andrewfree, oops :).
[11:29] <andrewfree> jrib: sudo apt-get upgrade  and apache2 after my first restart I ran apt-get -f install too
[11:29] <lenovo> what's happend?
[11:30] <lenovo> joke andrewfree
[11:30] <dnivra> jbangert, no clue. maybe somebody else can help. sorry :).
[11:30] <jrib> andrewfree: that doesn't upgrade releases.  Don't you have old kernels in the grub list?
[11:30] <andrewfree> nope
[11:30] <jrib> andrewfree: this doesn't seem possible
[11:31] <jrib> andrewfree: what did apt-get -f install do?
[11:31] <andrewfree> err I did a release upgrade
[11:31] <jrib> andrewfree: this isn't what you told me
[11:32] <andrewfree> jrib:  Just checked my terminal buffer, I was in ssh
[11:32] <dnivra> jbangert, found this http://www.mail-archive.com/debian-amd64@lists.debian.org/msg11335.html.
[11:32] <jrib> andrewfree: so how exactly did you do a release upgrade?
[11:32] <diskin> hi guys. tried to find on ubuntu.com or launchpad.net information about end of support for 8.04, and failed. where is it?
[11:32] <andrewfree> jrib:  http://paste2.org/p/1145098
[11:32] <rigved> is there an emulator which would allow me to run a x64 OS without VT support in my hardware? (something other than qemu)
[11:33] <jbangert> rigved: VirtualBox
[11:34] <joaopinto> rigved, assuming you are using a 64 bits OS host
[11:34] <dnivra> jbangert, seems like a universal issue as said in http://www.nvnews.net/vbulletin/showthread.php?t=130438. there's some patch to it mentioned too. check it out.
[11:34] <rigved> jbangert: no. vbox requires VT. i don't have VT
[11:35] <joaopinto> rigved, the last time I have checked vbox did not require VT
[11:35] <rigved> joaopinto: yes i have x64 OS
[11:35] <jrib> andrewfree: ok and when you reboot the first time after that what happened exactly?
[11:36] <andrewfree> jrib:  Well its a headless server so I tried to connect to the IP, ended up looking in my router config page and it showed it offline. Check out line 1543 of that file I just found :/
[11:36] <rigved> joaopinto: yes it does now. i tried installing one yesterday and it didn't allow me to :(
[11:36] <joaopinto> oh :(
[11:37] <rigved> joaopinto: so is there any other good one for ubuntu 10.04?
[11:37] <joaopinto> I just use vbox nowadays :\
[11:37] <andrewfree> jrib:  The main stuff I care about losing is my blog thats is really, regardless my keyboard isnt working on boot now so I can boot from a live cd :/
[11:37] <jrib> andrewfree: you can always just boot a live cd, so getting the data shouldn't be an issue
[11:38] <andrewfree> ^
[11:38] <jrib> (and you should have backups anyway -_-)
[11:38] <andrewfree> jrib:  Its a personal server I abuse, penn testing, socks5 proxy, the only reason I want the blog is I have code on it that I dont have on my drive XD
[11:39] <Jimmey> Is there an easy way to find out the GRUB2 partition numbering for a partition /dev/sdb3? This partition has a freeBSD install. Where can I find the custom menu entry for this?
[11:39] <andrewfree> jrib:  Right now it would be just great if it would reckonize this keyboard so I could get on this live cd
[11:39] <the_german> hi @ all my cupsaddsmb fails on 10.10 if I add the adobe postscript drivers to /usr/share/cups/drivers ...but if i delete them and only use the windows postscript drivers...it works. any idea why?
[11:40] <jrib> andrewfree: what's the kernel line you see in grub?
[11:40] <dnivra> Jimmey, GRUB2 partition numbering? do you mean UUID?
[11:40] <jrib> andrewfree: because I can't find "linux-image" in the pastebin which seems weird to me
[11:41] <Jimmey> dnivra, Well, I just need to know how to properly add a custom menu entry to boot into FreeBSD - I'm not sure how I might do that
[11:41] <purvesh> how can i run windows software on ubuntu i want to install Adobe Flash and Adobe Dreamviewer ?
[11:41] <dnivra> !wine | purvesh
[11:41] <andrewfree> jrib:  Weird its not even getting to grub
[11:42] <dnivra> Jimmey, check out the grub2 documentation for help. it's really good. https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Grub2.
[11:42] <jrib> andrewfree: yes, that's even more weird... where does the error come up then?
[11:42] <jbangert> Jimmey: in freebsd, just install the regular bootloader into your boot slice (do not install any bootloader)and then set up a chainloader
[11:42] <jbangert> FreeBSD does not use MultiBOOT, so grub cannot load it
[11:42] <andrewfree> jrib: Just the unable to boot please use a kernel approppriate for your cpu
[11:42] <purvesh> dnivra, thanx for reply, i know wine but it is not able to install Adobe flash and Adobe Dreamviewer
[11:42] <jrib> andrewfree: are you sure it's not getting to grub?  Did you try holding down shift?
[11:42] <OvermindDL1> Greetings, a question, when I install the ATI drivers in Ubuntu I am limited in resolution to a max of 1280x1024, but the native resolution of my monitor is 1920x1200, any thoughts as to how to fix?
[11:43] <purvesh> dnivra, so do u know any other software which support windows software ?
[11:43] <jrib> andrewfree: or is this the live cd...?
[11:43] <OvermindDL1> For note, FreeBSD multi-boots fine for me.
[11:43] <dnivra> purvesh, well maybe you should try virtualizers then. i'm sure that'll work.
[11:43] <dnivra> !virtualizers | purvesh
[11:44] <dnivra> purvesh, dreamweaver works fine in win XP on virtualbox. don't know about flash.
[11:44] <purvesh> dnivra, i also know virtualbox i had used that but i want to install something direct like wine, i forgot some substitute of wine on ubuntu ...
[11:45] <NetGrunt> hi everyone
[11:45] <DrManhattan> c0nv1ct, yeah certain os's wont recognize the raid device with too small of a chunk size. Ubuntu wouldn't recognize less than 1k, windows 4k
[11:45] <SirFrancisDrake> I mount a partition and then can write in it only with sudo. options in /etc/fstab look like "defaults,user,users,exec". What am I doing wrong?
[11:45] <dnivra> purvesh, i guess you mean cedega?
[11:45] <DrManhattan> still well within the recommended limits for video editing
[11:46] <DrManhattan> c0nv1ct, again thanks for the heads up on that article
[11:46] <NetGrunt> I would like to ask you a question, it's not specific to any Ubuntu version, but rather to Ubuntu itself : I have a hard disk drive in one server, and I want to know if it is connected straight to one of the SATA ports on the motherboard, or to a RAID PCI board that it also has. How could I do it ?
[11:46] <DjnX> :O
[11:46] <TheLegendaryFish> I am the Legendary Fish. Thou shalt kneel before me, for I am your God. Thou shalt not eat me for I am Santa's friend and he will rape anyone that eats me.
[11:46] <purvesh> dnivra, cedega can u give me any url ?
[11:46] <dnivra> purvesh, this might help too http://www.codeweavers.com/products/cxlinux/.
[11:47] <OvermindDL1> NetGrunt:  Well for the addon card I have it is plainly obvious in the Disk Utility app
[11:47] <elky> TheLegendaryFish, please don't troll here
[11:47] <jrib> TheLegendaryFish: that's not appropriate here.  This channel is only for ubuntu support
[11:47] <TheLegendaryFish> Awwww..... :(
[11:48] <NetGrunt> OvermindDL1: what do you mean the Disk Utility app ? that is for Mac OS X
[11:48] <dnivra> purvesh, http://www.cedega.com//. but mainly cedega's for games. you can try the link i gave you above too.
[11:48] <andrewfree> jrib:  The problem gets deeper. I have two drives I thought one was empty I bought it used at this scrap PC store. So I unplugged it, thats when I got the kernel error. So I plugged it back in and unplugged the other one. I very likely just got them mixed around This time it loads grub and the error is http://snapplr.com/c42p . Regardless the keyboard will not work (I have used this exact one before) so I cant see grubs menu.
[11:48] <Migaaresno> The keyboard settings are set to dvarak. Everything works fine, except when i press CTRL+ALT+F1-6 those login shells think im using a plain keyboard. How can i convince them otherwise?
[11:48] <SirFrancisDrake> why would a partition be writable only by root?
[11:49] <dnivra> SirFrancisDrake, if it was mounted by root, it'd be writable by root i guess.
[11:49] <purvesh> dnivra, so it runs windows games properly on Ubuntu ?
[11:49] <SirFrancisDrake> sample google requests are <3, but I thought mounting it as a user with options "defaults,user,users,exec" in /etc/fstab would be enough
[11:50] <dnivra> purvesh, dunno. check their website for compatibility.
[11:50] <SirFrancisDrake> dnivra, thanks. Are there any other possibilities?
[11:50] <Jimmey> dnivra, jbangert, I can't find the information I need in the GRUB2 Ubuntu documentation. I have figured how I can create a custom menu entry and roughly what it should look like, but I'm not sure that the device string that I have in the menu entry is correct, because FreeBSD won't boot with an error about the partition. How can I find out what device information to put?
[11:50] <dnivra> SirFrancisDrake, no clue. i used to mount windows partitions and they used to be mounted as root. had a tough time deleting files sometimes.
[11:51] <jrib> andrewfree: not really familiar with busybox (I usually just grab a live cd).  Can you determine what the UUIDs of your devices are?
[11:51] <dnivra> Jimmey, paste the custom entry and also output of "sudo blkid". let's see if i can make some sense
[11:51] <rigved> does vmware support x64 guest OS even when the host hardware does not have VT?
[11:51] <andrewfree> jrib:  Really hard without a keyboard
[11:52] <jrib> andrewfree: what live cd are you using?
[11:52] <SirFrancisDrake> dnivra, oh. That looks familiar, but not the case. Thanks anyway.
[11:52] <andrewfree> jrib:  Its 10.10 I think (w/e is newest)
[11:53] <dnivra> SirFrancisDrake, oh! okay then :). hope somebody else can help.
[11:53] <jrib> andrewfree: do you know of any version that has worked in the past?
[11:53] <andrewfree> jrib:  7.x is what was put on it originally
[11:53] <jrib> andrewfree: if you have it lying around, all we need is to boot something up so we can explore
[11:54] <rigved> does vmware support x64 guest OS even when the host hardware does not have VT?
[11:54] <SirFrancisDrake> anyone had any luck with Advanced Format Drives?
[11:54] <andrewfree> jrib:  How do I do this without a keyboard?
[11:55] <jrib> andrewfree: I was just suggesting you try a different version where the keyboard would just work
[11:56] <makulkar> hi all, I'm in desprate need of help! My grub loader got corrupted and doesnt show up when I select ubuntu from OS menu on bootup. I installed ubuntu from windows
[11:56] <jrib> andrewfree: is this a usb keyboard?
[11:56] <rileyp> should i be using 295 or 260 nvidia driver
[11:56] <andrewfree> jrib:  Touche, idk how I would select it from a boot menu without a keyboard and yes it is. I have used it tons of times before
[11:56] <rileyp> sorry thats 195
[11:56] <rileyp> are ther stilll issies with the 260 driver
[11:56] <jrib> andrewfree: can you plug in a ps/2 keyboard (or use one of those adapters)?
[11:57] <rileyp> and vdpau
[11:57] <Jimmey> dnivra, BLKID has shown that there are 4 UFS partitions that didn't otherwise show up - Will the first of these be the correct partition for booting in FreeBSD?
[11:57] <SirFrancisDrake> anyone had any luck with Advanced Format Drives?.. I'm gonna have to whine about this for some time, 'cause google failed to help.
[11:58] <dnivra> Jimmey, you should find out which of them is FreeBSD's. only possible by mounting each one and checking.
[11:58] <andrewfree> jrib:  Don't have access to one.
[11:58] <dnivra> makulkar, guess you've to reinstall grub if it's corrupted.
[11:58] <dnivra> !grub | makulkar
[11:59] <jrib> andrewfree: does your mouse work?  You could boot the live cd and then startup ssh
[12:00] <andrewfree> again, how do I get it to boot from the cd without changing boot order, just unplug both hds?
[12:00] <jrib> andrewfree: also, did you try just using the busybox prompt?
[12:01] <acnot> andrewfree: The BIOS has to know where to look
[12:01] <Jimmey> dnivra, /dev/sda7 is FreeBSD's root partition - does that translate as (hd0,7)?
[12:01] <andrewfree> jrib: Huh? I tried using it throughout the boot process, to acess the BIOS at that window of time, to escape to the GRUB menu at that time.
[12:01] <fmj> why is noone voiced here?
[12:01] <Myrtti> fmj: why should they be?
[12:01] <fmj> why am i a noob?
[12:02] <Myrtti> fmj: the channel isn't moderated
[12:02] <acnot> jimmey: I would think so
[12:02] <jrib> andrewfree: wait, so the issue isn't that your keyboard doesn't work in the live cd, it's that you can't access the bios with your keyboard to be able to boot the live cd?
[12:02] <fmj> i deserve to be banned, i am a bad person. this is why they have voiced users.
[12:02] <Jimmey> acnot, dnivra, thankyou for the help, I will try that now.
[12:02] <fmj> trolololol
[12:02] <rigved> is there any difference between the open source vm tools and vmware player?
[12:02] <charles_irc> ban me too
[12:02] <charles_irc> plox
[12:03] <dnivra> what has gotten into people?
[12:03] <andrewfree> jrib: That and I need to create a live cd of 7.x still
[12:03] <SirFrancisDrake> anyone had any luck with Advanced Format Drives?.. I'm gonna have to whine about this for some time, 'cause google failed to help.
[12:03] <acnot> jimmey: That is a lot of partitions you have there
[12:03] <dnivra> acnot, i've till sda10 :).
[12:04] <fmj_> thanks for the ban! :)
[12:04] <SirFrancisDrake> dnivra, +1
[12:05] <jrib> andrewfree: well you don't know that 10.10 doesn't work then, since you can't boot the live cd
[12:06] <andrewfree> jrib:  indeed. Im going to unplug both drives and try
[12:06] <jrib> andrewfree: it won't really be helpful since we want to learn about the drives
[12:08] <jrib> andrewfree: you could... move the drives to a different computer?
[12:08] <SirFrancisDrake> anyone had any luck with Advanced Format Drives?.. I'm gonna have to whine about this for some time, 'cause google failed to help.
[12:11] <engineer> unity(11.04) is plugin for compiz?
[12:11] <andrewfree> jrib:  Cant I plug them back in after boot?
[12:11] <andrewfree> jrib:  I'm home from college so my other computer thats not a mac is in my dorm
[12:11] <jrib> andrewfree: I guess, I never did tha
[12:11] <bunto_> ok
[12:11] <bunto_> what is your problem with ubuntu
[12:12] <andrewfree> jrib: we are about to find out
[12:12] <JanisBe> Hello, how can I detect how much RAM is in my server? '/proc/meminfo' says that MemTotal: 2057308 kB but 'lshw -short' states /0/20 memory     4GiB System Memory
[12:12] <taran> helo friends
[12:12] <rigved> engineer: no it's a GUI shell based on compiz
[12:13] <erUSUL> JanisBe: free -m
[12:13] <cordor> ok, i know a script can do it, but is there any better way to make gnome(icon) download a jnlp file from url and run java web start?
[12:14] <taran> is it possible to install a print server which can maintain user accounts in Ubuntu?
[12:14] <rigved> engineer: http://arstechnica.com/open-source/news/2010/10/shuttleworth-unity-shell-will-be-default-desktop-in-ubuntu-1104.ars

[12:15] <JanisBe> erUSUL: Mem:  2009
[12:15] <andrewfree> jrib:  wtf I got that kernel error and none of my drives are not plugged in
[12:15] <rigved> engineer: you are welcome
[12:15] <jrib> andrewfree: your live cd must be 64bit then
[12:16] <erUSUL> JanisBe: for some reson the system only sees 2 GiB
[12:16] <rigved> !language

[12:16] <SirFrancisDrake> anyone had any luck with Advanced Format Drive HDDs?.. I'm gonna have to whine about this for some time, 'cause google failed to help.
[12:18] <JanisBe> erUSUL: Maybe you know how to find this problem roots?
[12:19] <erUSUL> JanisBe: look at the output of "dmesg" ? bad memory stick? you can try to pass a memtest if you can reboot ( memetest is aviable in the grub menu )?
[12:19] <andrewfree> jrib:  If this fails Ill just cry and go to sleep its like 4:30 am

[12:21] <JanisBe> erUSUL: I don't see any strange messages with grep -i mem over dmesg output, since server is on colocation i can't run memtest :/

[12:23] <andrewfree> Autonomiser: What should I be doing?
[12:23] <erUSUL> JanisBe: then i dunno; anyway take a look at complete dmesg ...

[12:24] <tnm> are there anz drivers for hp printers and are not hplip drivers?
[12:25] <Autonomiser> andrewfree: "Boot" is not specific enough. Does the computer POST with out any errors?
[12:25] <andrewfree> Autonomiser: It posts fine
[12:25] <Autonomiser> andrewfree: What type of computer is it?
[12:26] <Autonomiser> andrewfree: Is it a laptop or desktop?

[12:37] <jeus> in repository is only 5.1
[12:38] <jeus> jrib, yes i know
[12:38] <Abhinav1> !mouse
[12:38] <andrewfree> jrib: Well wtf.. I couldnt select test it so I think it auto select test ubuntu and I get this…. Your cpu does not support long mode. Use a 32 bit distro. I downloaded the second one http://snapplr.com/k7jk because I have AMD. but its 64 fuck how did it boot to that screen then im so lost
[12:38] <jrib> jeus: what do you need from 5.5 that isn't in 5.1?
[12:38] <xuekan> no help? is there some hard drive channel?
[12:38] <riktking> hi having this issue http://pastebin.com/hqE9XuTv on a ssh login

[12:38] <riktking> can anyone help me
[12:39] <coco> ols
[12:39] <jrib> andrewfree: amd64 is just the name of the architecture (because amd got there first)
[12:39] <jeus> jrib, very stable and stronger than 5.1
[12:39] <coco> spanish
[12:39] <andrewfree> jrib:  THat makes a lot more sense it always kinda confused me.
[12:39] <jrib> jeus: I'd strongly recommend you just use the version in the repositories since you'll get automatic security updates that way
[12:40] <andrewfree> jrib:  I need to sleep Ill figure this out tomorrow Ive been up for 40 hours
[12:40] <Performer> i need some help in Ubuntu So who can help me pvt me TY :)

[12:50] <riktking> hi having this issue http://pastebin.com/hqE9XuTv on a ssh login, trying to port forward via ssh, but over two ssh logins
[12:51] <xyp> hello
[12:52] <izinucs> riktking: you trying to get through a router? or hop from one machine to another?
[12:52] <riktking> izinucs, from one machine to another
[12:53] <izinucs> riktking: are both machines on the same lan?
[12:53] <riktking> izinucs, yes, but im not
[12:53] <ctvoigt> riktking, why "ssh -L 5900:localhost:4900 192.168.0.104"
[12:53] <riktking> ctvoigt, i thought that was the port forward command
[12:53] <ctvoigt> why -L..."localhost":
[12:54] <izinucs> riktking: does it work logging into the first machine then then logging into the second with the first?
[12:54] <ctvoigt> are both ssh running on the same machine on differnt ports?
[12:54] <riktking> i have logged into the 1st machine via ssh, then 2nd via ssh from the 1st
[12:54]  * izinucs thinks good questions all
[12:54] <ctvoigt> try following
[12:55] <ctvoigt> ssh -L5900:second_machine:22 user@first machine
[12:55] <ctvoigt> and then
[12:55] <ctvoigt> ssh -p5900 user@localhost
[12:56] <riktking> ctvoigt, my problem is im on a windows box
[12:56] <ctvoigt> that works fine ;) for me (using it to access my desktiop computer from outside via my server)
[12:56] <ctvoigt> no problem use cygwin bash or putty
[12:56] <ctvoigt> (also tested on putty)
[12:57] <riktking> so i ssh into myserver using -L5900:secondmachine:22 riktking@firstmachine
[12:57] <ctvoigt> ok
[12:57] <izinucs> he's asking
[12:57] <ctvoigt> an now: ssh against localhost:5900
[12:57] <NCS_One> hi
[12:58] <ctvoigt> with login from the machine behind your server
[12:58] <netwired> Can I get some help with a dlink wua 2340 on 10.10 64?
[12:58] <Performer> izinucs i want to know if i can use IRC not xchat if u plz?
[12:59] <riktking> ctvoigt, im not getting it sorry
[12:59] <izinucs> Performer: how do you mean? use irc with a program other than xchat?
[12:59] <riktking> ctvoigt, i basically want to VNC my desktop at home, but my sever is the only one i have access to
[12:59] <Performer> yes bro
[12:59] <riktking> but the desktop and server are on the same lan
[12:59] <Performer> i want to use the default IRC
[12:59] <Performer> application
[13:00] <Dr_Willis> What is the default IRC app now in 10.04 and 10.10 ? ive never noticed
[13:00] <NCS_One> I have a HD with 1TB but I made a partition of 500GB and left the rest empty, I have many files on that partition, could there be any problems if I resize that partition to occupy the all HD?
[13:00] <izinucs> Performer: default irc program? you thinking of epifany?
[13:00] <istok> Performer, there is no one default IRC app, there are many - it's your choice which one suits your needs.
[13:00] <riktking> NCS_One, use a live CD and gparted, will take time but should be fine
[13:00] <istok> irssi is ok, i'm using mIRC right now
[13:01] <Dr_Willis> NCS_One:  you are enlargeing the partition withg parted. it should work. BUT i woul dmake backups. if somthing happens like a power failure during the reisize, or other issues.. that can result in lost data
[13:01] <NCS_One> riktking: that HD is not where the OS is
[13:01] <Performer> izinucs yes bro u r right but i mean i want to use the IRC application from www.irc.com
[13:01] <Pici> Dr_Willis: empathy.  :(
[13:02] <rigved> izinucs: i thought that epifany was a browser
[13:02] <riktking> NCS_One, then unmount and use gparted then
[13:02] <Pici> Performer: I don't see an application there. Its just some company's website.
[13:02] <NCS_One> riktking, Dr_Willis : ok, thanks
[13:02] <netwired> can someone help with my dlink wua2340 problem?
[13:03] <Dr_Willis> netwired:  tell the channel what the problem is with the device. (what is that device anyway?)
[13:03] <izinucs> rigved: yea.. what's the new "all in one" messaging client they installed in place of pidgon
[13:03] <Pici> rigved, izinucs: Empathy is the default IRC client. :(
[13:03] <Performer> guys yes yes lol, i mean that i want to use the application in www.irc.com so how can i download it and use it :)
[13:04] <izinucs> Performer: I don't see an IRC app there .. or even a channel..
[13:04] <netwired> dlink wua2340 usb wifi adapter,  i've used ndiswrapper with the windows drivers, it loads the driver fine, and says it sees the hardware but doesn't work
[13:04] <izinucs> Pici: that's it :(
[13:04] <Pici> Performer: There is no application on that website.
[13:04] <rigved> Pici: yes i was talking about epiphany in debian, which is default browser
[13:05] <Performer> guys yes yes lol, i mean that i want to use the application in www.mirc.com so how can i download it and use it :)
[13:06] <SirFrancisDrake> anyone had any luck with Advanced Format Drive HDDs?.. I can't make parted and fdisk align one correctly
[13:06] <Performer> www.mirc.com not www.irc.com
[13:06] <Performer> sorry
[13:06] <Pici> Performer: mIRC is a windows application.  Linux is not Windows.  If you really feel the need to use it you may be able to use it through Wine.
[13:06] <Pici> !wine > Performer
[13:06] <Pici> !appdb > Performer
[13:07] <izinucs> Performer: mirc is a windows app..Pidgon, Empathy, Quassel all gui based irc clients... irssi, weechat and others for cli
[13:07] <rigved> izinucs: i didn't notice any. i had to install xchat for irc.
[13:08] <dinosb> d
[13:08] <glicks> hi
[13:08] <Performer> izinucs yes bro i got u i will join that channel in the pvt and ask there
[13:08] <izinucs> rigved: empathy has many uses.. but I don't like it. xchat and quassel are good gui apps.. irssi is my preference on cli
[13:08] <Joze__> hola
[13:08] <glicks> hey does anyobne know of a good text to speech program for ubuntu?  i heard of festival but its not in the repos
[13:09] <Dr_Willis> glicks:  i would look agagin.. check the spelling. Im pretty sure it is in teh repos.
[13:10] <Pici> glicks: espeak is also in the repos, and actually should be installed by default.
[13:10] <Dr_Willis> festival - General multi-lingual speech synthesis system
[13:10] <rigved> izinucs: ok. i just use empathy because i have never had any problems with it and i don't want to many applications on my machine
[13:10] <glicks> whats the speech synth used in those youtube and new geico videos?
[13:10] <rs0832> glicks: http://packages.ubuntu.com/search?keywords=festival&searchon=names&suite=maverick&section=all
[13:10] <izinucs> rigved: that's hard to do .. so many things to explore
[13:11] <rigved> izinucs: agreed. :)
[13:11] <glicks> does anyone know what im talking about?
[13:11] <Bauldrick> I  have no /usr/lib32/libbz2.so.1 on my 64bit - I've had to symlink to  /usr/lib32/libbz2.so.1.0 .. is that the same for everyone and a bug??
[13:12] <netwired> anyone know how to make the dlink wua2340 usb wifi work on ubuntu?
[13:12] <SirFrancisDrake> *sighs* Advanced Format Drive? Anyone?
[13:13] <Dr_Willis> Bauldrick:  i have -> lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root    15 2010-10-16 06:22 /usr/lib32/libbz2.so.1.0 -> libbz2.so.1.0.4
[13:13] <Pici> SirFrancisDrake: I didn't have any issues with mine.
[13:13] <rs0832> glicks: afaik, youtube has a speech recognition system.. not synthesis
[13:13] <SirFrancisDrake> Pici, what did you partition them with?
[13:14] <SirFrancisDrake> Pici, lucky you :)
[13:14] <Pici> SirFrancisDrake: I think I may have used parted, as I put them into an LVM.
[13:14] <DasEi> netwired : no experience with that device particular, but basics are same, does lsusb find the device ? then
[13:14] <glicks> rs0832, no im talking about the new geico commercials that use that text to voice software
[13:14] <DasEi> !wirelesss
[13:14] <diskin> I pressed alt-sysrq-U and it remounted all file systems read-only. how can I remount them back to rw? sudo mount -o rw,remount -a did not work, because "filesystem is busy"
[13:14] <glicks> i also saw it on several youtube videos
[13:14] <glicks> the same voices
[13:14] <netwired> yes
[13:14] <jo_> do you guys use xchat or are there any better clients?
[13:15] <Dr_Willis> jo_:  it depends on your needs. I use weechat 90% of the time
[13:15] <rs0832> glicks: then try the link i sent you earlier
[13:15] <izinucs> jo_: irssi for me.. a lot like weechat
[13:15] <glicks> oh what link i missed it
[13:15] <Bauldrick> Dr_Willis: so should there be a /usr/lib32/libbz2.so.1.... I think there should, but I don't know much...?
[13:16] <DasEi> jo_:there are several out, pidgin is comfortabel, irrssi most powerful, and many many more
[13:16] <SirFrancisDrake> Pici, and Ubuntu treats them as having 4096b sectors?
[13:16] <rs0832> glicks: http://packages.ubuntu.com/search?keywords=festival&searchon=names&suite=maverick&section=all
[13:16] <Joze__>  /etc/init.d/networking force-reload ?
[13:16] <Joze__>  /etc/init.d/networking force-reload ?
[13:17] <rileyp> what is pcm
[13:17] <Bauldrick> Dr_Willis: I mean /lib/libbz2.so.1 is linked to /lib/libbz2.so.1.0.4
[13:17] <DasEi> Joze__: whom you are talking to ?
[13:17] <rileyp> to do with sound i think
[13:17] <rileyp> is it pc mis\xer?
[13:17] <Dr_Willis> Bauldrick:  i have only those 2.  I dont see a so.1
[13:18] <rs0832> glicks: if you are searching for the same one they use, i think it is this one but i doubt it will run on ubuntu
[13:18] <Dr_Willis> Bauldrick:  why do you think there should be one?
[13:18] <DasEi> Joze__: sudo /etc/init.d/networking restart
[13:18] <rs0832> glicks: http://phonetic-arts.com/welcome/products/index.html
[13:18] <rileyp> is it pc mixer for short
[13:18] <DasEi> rileyp: it's the incoming signal of the mixer
[13:18] <dinosb> :)
[13:18] <Bauldrick> Dr_Willis: because a program I had relied upon it being there
[13:18] <rileyp> so in mythtv i can select master or pcm
[13:18] <Pici> SirFrancisDrake: Let me check.  I'm not near that computer, but I can ssh in.
[13:18] <netwired> I get ... Ignoring unknown interface wlan0=wlan0.
[13:19] <Joze__> for serving /etc/init.d/networking force-reload?
[13:19] <DasEi> rileyp: on is incoming, other outgoing , seen from the mixer
[13:19] <SirFrancisDrake> Pici, that would be nice of you.
[13:19] <DasEi> one* , rileyp
[13:20] <rileyp> DasEi, so the master is outgoing?
[13:20] <netwired> Joze, yes
[13:20] <DasEi> rileyp: yup
[13:20] <Joze__> for serving /etc/init.d/networking force-reload?
[13:20] <Dr_Willis> Joze__:  or try 'sudo service SERVIECNAME reload'
[13:21] <rileyp> DasEi,  thanks it about 0.5 percent clearer now
[13:22] <DasEi> rileyp: humm ? just ask if unclear
[13:22] <Pici> SirFrancisDrake: Actually it looks like I misconfigured it.  :(   Although I did a little searching myself and it looks like this might be the best solution you're going to get: http://community.wdc.com/t5/Desktop/Problem-with-WD-Advanced-Format-drive-in-LINUX-WD15EARS/m-p/7573#M369
[13:22] <rileyp> why would you have an option for one or both? why not just have an outgoing volume control that can be either enabled or bypassed
[13:23] <rileyp> everything is so bloody technical these days
[13:24] <SirFrancisDrake> Pici, oh, thanks. I'll try that. I also tried http://notepad.patheticcockroach.com/900/dealing-with-wd-advanced-format-hard-drives-on-linux-windows-and-mac-os-part-1/ and http://wdc.custhelp.com/cgi-bin/wdc.cfg/php/enduser/std_adp.php?p_faqid=5655 , but, strangely enough, they didn't help much.
[13:25] <coconutz> hey, i registered a domain in godaddy and i want to make private name server (i have static ip and ubuntu + apache2) ... i setup in host summery a ns1.mydomain and ns2.mydomain to point to my static ip... but its wont redirect, anyone can help me out?
[13:26] <DasEi> rileyp: I believe that comes from pulseaudio
[13:27] <long> what?
[13:27] <netwired> anyone have any more ideas about my dlink wifi problem,  sudo modprobe ndiswrapper doesn't do anything btw
[13:27] <jo_> Dr_Willis, what do you mean by needs ?
[13:29] <Chisisdabomb> Hello.
[13:30] <rigved> coconutz: is it a ubuntu server? then better ask in #ubuntu-server
[13:30] <Chisisdabomb> Can i upgrade to 10.10 from 10.04?
[13:31] <rigved> Chisisdabomb: that's a downgrade.
[13:31] <Shadowww> Chisisdabomb, sure
[13:31] <Shadowww> rigved, to 10.10 from 10.04, not to 10.04 from 10.10 :D
[13:31] <rigved> Chisisdabomb: sorry it upgrade
[13:31] <Chisisdabomb> lol
[13:31] <Chisisdabomb> I meant
[13:31] <Chisisdabomb> I'm on 10.04 and I want to upgrade to 10.10
[13:32] <rigved> !upgrade | Chisisdabomb
[13:32] <Chisisdabomb> thanks :D
[13:32] <rigved> Chisisdabomb: you are welcome
[13:33] <Chisisdabomb> I haven't used Ubuntu since 8.10 so I forgot alot of stuff
[13:33] <jo_> I installed irssi, but it is not starting :(
[13:34] <istok> jo_, from terminal; irssi
[13:34] <Brouhaha> Tired of niggers?
[13:34] <Brouhaha> Sick of their monkeyshines?
[13:34] <Brouhaha> Then join Chimpout forum!
[13:34] <Chisisdabomb> >.>
[13:34] <istok> Brouhaha, troll elsehwere, kthnx.,
[13:34] <Brouhaha> http://www.chimpout.com/forum
[13:34] <jo_> that is what i did
[13:34] <jo_> hm. i started new terminal now it works
[13:34] <jo_> odd
[13:34] <istok> :P
[13:35] <Chisisdabomb> Yes finally got flash working :)
[13:35] <heartinfei> hi
[13:36] <jo_> nice... got to know all the irc commands
[13:36] <jo_> have to remember all of them.
[13:36] <jo_> don't have time for that today.. got to study the entire skull in 4 hours
[13:36] <Dr_Willis> jo_:  i perfer weechat to irssi. but its a matter of taste. I find weechat has a bigger set of features.
[13:36] <jo_> tmi, sorry
[13:36] <Chisisdabomb> lol
[13:37] <istok> irssi is ok, i run mIRC under Wine
[13:37] <jo_> weechat in terminal also ?
[13:37] <istok> works great.
[13:37] <Chisisdabomb> irssi I haven't heard
[13:37] <_joey> running ms windows 7 win64 and wmware player (free version). I want to install Ubuntu via network, what ISO file should I choose?
[13:37] <_joey> thanks
[13:37] <Eubolist> anyone here has experience with nfs4? I set up some shares but somehow they don't show any files in the remote location
[13:38] <jo_> Dr_Willis, is weechat in terminal also? I don't really like interminal clients
[13:38] <_joey> is there netinstall?
[13:38] <_joey> a minimal cd
[13:38] <Chisisdabomb> weechat is IRC right?
[13:38] <Dr_Willis> jo_:  I perfer 'terminal' clients.. the gui just gets in the way
[13:38] <jo_> >(
[13:38] <Dr_Willis> !info weechat
[13:38] <istok> _joey, sure, there should be both, using a mirror close to your location, like your ISP
[13:39] <Shadowww> mIRC under wine? wtf.. use xchat instead
[13:39] <humble> !info backtrack
[13:39] <Chisisdabomb> lol
[13:39] <istok> minimal.iso and netinstall are both fine
[13:39] <Chisisdabomb> I use the standrd ubuntu one (<--noob)
[13:39] <jo_> Dr_Willis, does not tell me if it is in termainl :)
[13:39] <istok> Shadowww, i can script mIRC, my perl and pureTCL skills aren't the best
[13:39] <simon34> how can i download youtube video?
[13:40] <jo_> Dr_Willis, i don't like in terminal since I use docky, and cant change between terminals accurately.
[13:40] <_joey> istok should i used 32 bits or amd 64 to install it in vmware that runs on ms windows 7?
[13:40] <B-r00t> simon34: install downloadhelper add on for firefox
[13:40] <istok> simon34, have you tried searching?
[13:40] <Chisisdabomb> simon34: Use zamzar.com It's a good website. there are also some programs like downloadhelper for firefox
[13:40] <DasEi> simon34: several ways, plugin for ff is easiest, f.e.videodownload helper
[13:40] <istok> _joey, either are fine, 64 is better for virtualization
[13:40] <marvin2> Can simple-cdd be used to create a custom Ubuntu distribution?
[13:40] <_joey> what is vertualisation?
[13:40] <Xintruder> tried google? :P
[13:41] <_joey> I am running Intel, not AMD
[13:41] <jo_> how do I get rid of applications? lets say irssi. how do I uninstall it
[13:41] <istok> jo_, terminal; sudo apt-get remove irssi
[13:41] <jo_> thx
[13:42] <istok> _joey, you may want to consult google before choosing which release/version to install
[13:42] <istok> most default setups are ok, but occasionally you run into an error that requires a rebuild of the kernel.
[13:43] <simon34> can i share net connection of ubuntu  in my symbian v5 mobile,nokia 5230 through bluetooth?
[13:43] <_joey> istok google is quite a resourceful site. You can stuck there for a long time if you are not sure what you are looking for.
[13:44] <aeiah> joey for a brief overview of virtualisation, see wikipedia
[13:44] <tous> m
[13:44] <aeiah> you'll probably want to use virtualbox as your choice of virtualisation software if you decide it's useful to you
[13:45] <tous> Okay.
[13:45] <IBMThinkPad> Hey, I have a question, if someone is able to help
[13:45] <tous> Okay.
[13:45] <IBMThinkPad> I am using an older IBM ThinkPad T21
[13:45] <IBMThinkPad> and
[13:45] <IBMThinkPad> The sound card isn't working right
[13:45] <tous> Mhm.
[13:45] <bonjoyee>  simon34: i think you should search for bluetooth access points...
[13:46] <diskin> I pressed alt-sysrq-U and it remounted all file systems read-only. how can I remount them back to rw? sudo mount -o rw,remount -a did not work, because "filesystem is busy"
[13:46] <dinosb> ibmthinkpad@what distro?
[13:46] <IBMThinkPad> Further details would be, any time that I play a youtube video, or an mp3, the sound will play,but it will randomly start to warble
[13:46] <spanglesontoast> does anyone know if you add a new screensaver theme is there a command you have to run to get it to show up in the gnome-screensaver-preferences ?
[13:46] <IBMThinkPad> its 10.04LTS
[13:46] <aeiah> diskin: is just rebooting our of the question?
[13:46] <diskin> aeiah, sure, rebbot helped, but I wanted to keep all apps running
[13:47] <diskin> some app hanged, and I was too fast to press alt-sysrq-u in preparation to boot
[13:47] <diskin> then I found the bad app and killed it
[13:47] <diskin> from text console
[13:47] <simon34>  can i share net connection of ubuntu  in my symbian v5 mobile,nokia 5230 through bluetooth?
[13:47] <IBMThinkPad> But yeah, I would be listening to music, and then all of a sudden, the sound card goes nuts. It starts making loud buzzing sounds, and the only way to stop it is by sliding the volume control on Ubuntu up and down until the buzzing stops completely.
[13:48] <IBMThinkPad> Then it starts again...\
[13:48] <root> hi
[13:49] <delueks> your thinkpad obviously thinks its a synthesizer
[13:49] <delueks> thats some deep psychological problems
[13:49] <IBMThinkPad> I believe the sound card is a Crystal Fusion CS46xx
[13:49] <IBMThinkPad> Ubuntu recogizes the card
[13:49] <IBMThinkPad> but the driver sucks
[13:50] <IBMThinkPad> I am looking at alsamixer right now, it reports no problems though
[13:50] <comtom987> hm...
[13:51] <IBMThinkPad> so, any suggestions?
[13:51] <BluesKaj> Hey folks
[13:51] <AlienDK> Hi. Could someone recommend a newbie friendly step-by-step tutorial for setting up an FTP server (and adding users) on Ubuntu Server (10.04 LTS)?
[13:51] <delueks> you probably already know this page http://wiki.debian.org/snd-cs46xx
[13:51] <IBMThinkPad> Let me see...
[13:52] <IBMThinkPad> I have done a lot of forums searching for anyone who has had this problem, and some people have had luck uninstalling alsa and reinstalling it
[13:52] <IBMThinkPad> I tried it
[13:52] <IBMThinkPad> then it still didn't work
[13:52] <jo_> Dr_Willis, still there. I put weechat one.. now it does not start either.. neither from terminal or alt+f2
[13:52] <erUSUL> !ftpd
[13:53] <AlienDK> hmm
[13:53] <erUSUL> AlienDK: howtoforge has good tutorials
[13:53] <jo_> Dr_Willis, still there? I put weechat on. now it does not start either.. neither from terminal or alt+f2
[13:53] <AlienDK> erUSUL: Thanks, will have a look there
[13:54] <erUSUL> AlienDK: https://help.ubuntu.com/10.04/serverguide/C/ftp-server.html
[13:54] <Dr_Willis> jo_:  how are you starting it from terminal? do 'wee<tab>'
[13:54] <AlienDK> erUSUL: Thanks again :P
[13:55] <Dr_Willis> jo_:  its text based.. so alt-f2 proberly is not the right way to stat it
[13:55] <david506> I have a two private keys here, I need to know how many bits each key is
[13:55] <Dr_Willis> willis@Cow:~$ weechat-curses
[13:56] <IBMThinkPad> I am looking at this site that you sent, none of what it is saying looks like it would be an effective fix to the problem at hand. Especially since it is advising a driver version that may be much older than the one currently loaded.
[13:56] <jo_> kk
[13:56] <jo_> th
[13:56] <jo_> x
[13:56] <erUSUL> david506: gpg --list-secret-keys
[13:56] <david506> I don't use gpg
[13:56] <Dr_Willis> jo_:  and if you want to use weechat. you will want to read its docs/starter guides at its homepage.
[13:56] <david506> The one key is used by apache on a server, the other is a DES-EDE3-CBC encrypted key on a usb key.
[13:57] <AlienDK> When installing an FTP server, I should run it on a seperate non-root user right?
[13:57] <IBMThinkPad> wouldn't the ASIO4ALL sound driver be a replacement for ALSA?
[13:57] <bonjoyee> simon34 : some hope ...http://www.arjunprabhu.com/blog/archives/2005/03/30/nokia-6600-internet-over-bluetooth-how-to/
[13:58] <IBMThinkPad> any hope for me? XD
[13:58] <bonjoyee> simon34 : if this works..i can use my nokia 5233 to do the same!!:)
[13:58] <jo1> Dr_Willis: ok, I see, weechat it does look good. but my problem is that it is terminal based, and I can't switch between windos quickly, w/o going through all the terminals
[14:01] <zulax> like tab button which focuses on the next item, any button to focus on last item (on item back)
[14:02] <delueks> can anyone tell me why, on ssh-sessions, i always lose x11-forwarding after some time
[14:02] <delueks> already started programs keep working, new x-apps fail with "failed to open x11 display"
[14:03] <IBMThinkPad> Yeah, I am not seeing any support on the CS46xx driver, I am not SOL though, hopefully. A friend of mine has a ThinkPad T21, and his Ubuntu Distro works great, no issues at all. So why am I having this problem?
[14:04] <tieinv> zulax does alt tab work for you
[14:05] <zulax> tieinv, nop, it stays in the same place
[14:05] <delueks> thinkpad: did you try another os?
[14:06] <tieinv> zulax then i dont understand the question
[14:06] <zulax> tieinv, shift tab works, got some help , thanks though
[14:07] <bullgard> What does the following dmesg line mean? "ipw2200: Failed to send POWER_MDE: Command timed out."
[14:07] <DasEi> IBMThinkPad: second, looking up that chip
[14:07] <IBMThinkPad> Alright, thanks
[14:08] <bullgard> What does the following dmesg line mean? "ipw2200: Failed to send POWER_MODE: Command timed out."
[14:08] <Fool> omg
[14:08] <Fool> omg
[14:08] <Fool> 1433 members
[14:08] <IBMThinkPad> I am looking at a Ubuntu support thread that is recent. Regarding my card actually...
[14:08] <DasEi> IBMThinkPad: thats cirrus logic ?
[14:09] <IBMThinkPad> Yes
[14:09] <simon34> how can i make a internet access point in symbian v5 mobile eg nokia 5230 where data barrier will be data call  to use ubuntu's net connection in mobile through bletooth? plzzzz helpppppp........
[14:09] <IBMThinkPad> Cirrus Logic Crystalfusion
[14:09] <IBMThinkPad> something like that
[14:09] <DasEi> IBMThinkPad:    modinfo soundcore                , returns ?
[14:10] <IBMThinkPad> Like I said, ALSA did not report any problems, but for some reason, the audio keeps crapping out on me
[14:12] <Fool> omg
[14:12] <Fool> stop leaving
[14:12] <diskin> I pressed alt-sysrq-U and it remounted all file systems read-only. how can I remount them back to rw? sudo mount -o rw,remount -a did not work, because "filesystem is busy"
[14:13] <Fool> cause it is
[14:13] <joa__> hi. i cannot resolve any name of the machines in my local network. /etc/network/interfaces is configured like on all the other machines. where else could i have a possible mistake? e.g. i can ping 10.160.100.123 but i cannot ping thename.intern
[14:13] <DasEi> IBMThinkPad: what does modinfo return ?
[14:13] <otak> bullgard: diskin - sudo mount -a should do ya if fstab is ok
[14:14] <DasEi> joa__: /etc/resolv.conf
[14:14] <Fool> You idiotic TEStER NOW TO SPAM THE SHIT OUT OF YOU HAHAHA.
[14:14] <Fool> You idiotic TEStER NOW TO SPAM THE SHIT OUT OF YOU HAHAHA.

[14:14] <jo_> do you guys know the search site that uses google/yahoo etc. all in one without saving the info ?
[14:14] <netbeast> hello all
[14:14] <Pici> !ot | jo_
[14:14] <netbeast> need help today getting a creative pc cam 300 to work
[14:14] <BluesKaj> diskin, mount -o remount,rw /path/to/drive , maybe
[14:15] <joa__> DasEi: Thanks, that was it.
[14:15] <jo_> jesus, don't get ur panties in a tangle dude
[14:15] <DasEi> joa__: stay connected, have fun
[14:15] <DasEi> jo_: stop that
[14:15] <diskin> otak, BluesKaj - nope, it says "/tmp is busy" for instance
[14:15] <rigved> i am doing a fresh install (using standard cd, not alternate). how do i boot with nosplash and remove quiet from the boot line?
[14:15] <IBMThinkPad> omg, this is annoying, Mom! It's doing it again!
[14:15] <otak> bullgard: sorry I meant sounds like your cpu does not support power management
[14:17] <netbeast> anyone know anything about getting a webcam to work its a creative pc cam 300
[14:17] <bahr> Hi guys. I've recently bought a Sony VAIO CW21SE laptop, and I am unable to adjust the brightness of the screen. This seems to be a common problem, and it makes Ubuntu unusable for me, and I would really love to to get back to ubuntu again. Is there anybody who was a known fix for this? My model has a Geforce GT 330m graphics card.
[14:18] <IBMThinkPad> netbeast: How old is the cam?
[14:18] <netbeast> its old like 10 yrs ago
[14:18] <IBMThinkPad> netbeast: I will see if I can find a driver for it
[14:18] <netbeast> ok thank you
[14:20] <IBMThinkPad> netbeast: is that the US, Canada, or Latin version?
[14:20] <netbeast> us
[14:21] <Inferus> whats the best filesystem for ubuntu on laptop
[14:21] <DasEi> netbeast: install cheese and see if it gets a picture
[14:21] <jpds> !best | Inferus
[14:21] <luxurymode> Total noob here. How can I find a file? I'm looking for my Xchat logs. Where do I even begin?
[14:21] <netbeast> nope no picture says cant detect device
[14:21] <jpds> Inferus: You should be fine with ext4.
[14:21] <Dr_Willis> luxurymode:  perhaps in /home/username/.xchat/
[14:21] <netbeast> but when i do list i get /dev/video0 /dev/video1 but neither to camera
[14:22] <Dr_Willis> luxurymode:  xchat settings perhaps has a setting for them that would show where they are at also
[14:22] <IBMThinkPad> netbeast: I found this, find out what it dos for you http://opensource.creative.com/webcam.html
[14:22] <DasEi> luxurymode: in trml sudo updatedb && locate , or google ubuntu xhchat logs
[14:22] <ruslanz> test
[14:22] <DasEi> ruslanz: pong
[14:23] <DasEi> luxurymode: find an whereis additional possibs
[14:23] <luxurymode> Dr_Willis, DasEi thank you
[14:23] <Inferus> ok
[14:23] <Inferus> thanks
[14:23] <Inferus> next question... i am doing some work with gparted boot iso
[14:23] <IBMThinkPad> Stupid sound card pooped again
[14:23] <bullgard> otak: Your interpretation is wrong. Here is not meant a power management of the CPU: The subject in question is the WLAN card's driver ipw2200.
[14:24] <otak> oops sorry
[14:24] <Inferus> i want to move my ubuntu install from partition 5 to the start of the disk
[14:24] <Inferus> is this possible or will i t fuck up grub
[14:24] <dnivra> !language | Inferus
[14:24] <otak> !ipw2200>otak
[14:25] <jo_> i love that bot
[14:25] <luxurymode> DasEi, dont know how to use the sudo updatedb && locate
[14:25] <Dr_Willis> Inferus:  grub installs to the MBR   so it wont erase grub. BUT moving the partion/fs from sda6 to sda1 for example. might confuse things.
[14:25] <luxurymode> do i just enter search term after that command?
[14:25] <nicolaus> hey guys can u tell me how to change my login background
[14:25] <Dr_Willis> Inferus:  you may need toboot a live cd and reinstall grub to make it all see where stuff is at.
[14:25] <nicolaus> i kno there r others i can download can u give me somje names plz
[14:25] <Dr_Willis> Inferus:  theres no real need to 'move' the install. if its working.
[14:26] <rigved> Inferus: install a new ubuntu system at the start of the drive. then boot into this new install and then copy all your data from the old install. then delete it
[14:26] <phix> Dr_Willis, Dr_Willis.  Dr_Willis, Dr_Willis. Dr_Willis, Dr_Willis, oh oh Dr_Willis
[14:26] <Dr_Willis> nicolaus:  you can just edit the /usr/share/backgrounds/warty-final-ubuntu.png image - to change it. if you want to do it the hardcore way. :) theres tools like gdm2setup (not in the repos) that let you change it via gui.
[14:26] <luxurymode> DasEi, nm i found it you can just click open data folder in xchat
[14:26]  * Dr_Willis sends phix  a rx for sedatives.
[14:27] <luxurymode> how do i add an SDK to the PATH?
[14:27] <jo_> Dr_Willis, then where do u get it if it is not in repos ?
[14:27] <nicolaus> mr_willis: What about the other type of background like kde and xgnome or something like that
[14:27] <phix> Dr_Willis: :D Valium?
[14:27] <MrElements> sry aber wie heißt der deutsch server von Ubuntu gleich nochmal habs schon wieder vergessen
[14:27] <nicolaus> i kno u can download some
[14:27] <DasEi> luxurymode: sudo updatedb sets an indexed database up, takes few minutes in first run, is then incremetal. once done, locate FILENAME is very fast
[14:27] <otak> bullgard: soz only thing I can suggest is to look in man iwconfig if you haven't already as some features such as alternative mac are not supported on the card
[14:27] <jo_> MrElements is wondering what the name of the german ubuntu server is
[14:28] <phix> add sdk to path?   like the libraries?
[14:28] <otak> !de
[14:28] <phix> .so?
[14:28] <phix> otak: NEIN!
[14:28] <luxurymode> DasEi, thank you
[14:29] <zulax> with netstat, how do i check if a specific port is accessible outside the lan network or not
[14:29] <Dr_Willis> jo_:  from its homepage, or a ppa.
[14:29] <henrique> brasil?
[14:29] <otak> MrElements: or look on searchirc.com
[14:30] <wrd> zulax: you cant do that with netstat.
[14:30] <dnivra> zulax, i suggest use nmap
[14:30] <dnivra> !info nmap | zulax
[14:30] <DasEi> luxurymode: you seem in the beginning with many things, there are a lot of goodies in :http://tinyurl.com/36hapdh
[14:30] <wrd> zulax: you need either access to the firewall or try to connect form the outside
[14:30] <zulax> ok
[14:30] <dnivra> zulax, not enough details :). nmap shows all open ports on your local machine.
[14:30] <bullgard> zulax: man netstat
[14:31] <luxurymode> phix: umm im just told to "add Android SDK to path"
[14:31] <zulax> dnivra, wrd bullgard  nmap solved my problem, nmap -p port ip
[14:31] <DasEi> zulax: trafshow, ethereal
[14:31] <zulax> thanks
[14:31] <dnivra> zulax, np :
[14:32] <gp5st> any recommendations on an irc client with notifications like empathy or evolution?
[14:32] <dnivra> gp5st, xchat's pretty good.
[14:32] <bullgard> gp5st: What do you want?
[14:32] <DasEi> gp5st: pidgin with thed according plugins
[14:32] <gp5st> dnivra, that's what i'm using, i didn't know it had notifications
[14:32] <gp5st> DasEi, i might try that and switch from empathy
[14:32] <Dr_Willis> gp5st:  weechat can do that. but its a text based irc client. so may not be what you want.
[14:33] <dnivra> gp5st, pidgin's a better choice. i misread as "withouth notifications" sorry :).
[14:33] <bullgard> DasEi: s/according/associated/
[14:33] <Dr_Willis> It gets annoying getting irc notifications when someone spam/msgs you a dozen+ lines.
[14:33] <dnivra> gp5st, it has an addon called pidgin-guifications. annoying at times but i guess it's what you're looking for.
[14:33] <DasEi> gp5st: ..get install pidgin*,  the asterisk brings all that stuff to your plugin-list
[14:33] <gp5st> Dr_Willis, yeah, if i could set it up only to notify me of msg on the work channel;)
[14:33] <gp5st> thanks
[14:33] <gp5st> i'll give that a shot
[14:34] <dnivra> Dr_Willis, which is quite common for you eh?
[14:34] <luxurymode> DasEi, thanks for that link. i will definitely go through some stuff there.
[14:34] <rigved> what exactly is swap used for? (other than for hibernation, video editing)? will a system that has a more heavy-processing-centeric role benefit from a larger swap space?
[14:34] <DasEi> luxurymode: see you after next weekend
[14:34] <DasEi> :)
[14:34] <luxurymode> hehe
[14:35] <DasEi> rigved: data often read, not fitting in ram will be put there
[14:35] <geekbri> rigved: the swap is also used for when the system needs more ram than it currently has, it puts some into the swap
[14:35] <dnivra> rigved, read a bit about paging and virtual memory. they are related to swap.
[14:35] <netbeast> i need help and i get a error when making a install you must have read write access
[14:35] <luxurymode> where does it make sense to like extract folders to? home/myname/whatever of go to "file system"?
[14:35] <dnivra> rigved, i sure can explain it but it'll turn into an operating systems lecture :).
[14:36] <DasEi> rigved: on systems with lot aof ram, and if you don't "eat" ram by thousands of apps, can downgrade swapiness a lot for performance
[14:36] <rigved> DasEi, geekbri, dnivra: ok. thanx. i think i'll put the standard recommendation swap=2*RAM then.
[14:36] <DasEi> luxurymode: create a subdir in your homefolder, app-wise
[14:37] <DasEi> rigved: ram > 2-2,5 of RAM
[14:37] <dnivra> rigved, in short let's say a software needs about 300MB of RAM but only 150MB is free. it's possible that it needs only about 100MB at one go to work. so 100MB needed is put in RAM and rest in swap-it'll be called into RAM when needed.
[14:37] <DasEi> rigved: if not needed, can drop it later on without a problem
[14:37] <rigved> dnivra: ok. np. will read up on it. thanx
[14:38] <netbeast> why wont this let me do a make file says i dont have read write access
[14:38] <Dr_Willis> luxurymode:  'filesystem' may actually be pointing to /  -  user should keep their stuff in /home/username/someniceorganizedlocation
[14:38] <DasEi> rigved: errm swap = 2-2,5 of RAM
[14:38] <Dr_Willis> netbeast:  one normally does a './configure' 'make' 'sudo make install'
[14:38] <bullgard> I forgot: What is the opposite (or "inverse")  CLI command to "eject"?
[14:39] <rigved> DasEi: ok. thanx. my current RAM (on VM) is 1.9 GB
[14:39] <dnivra> bullgard, mount?
[14:39] <luxurymode> Dr_Willis, thank you thats what i did. just created a folder in myname. thank you guys so much. linux/open source ppl are so friendly and willing to help. hope i can pay it 4wd some day
[14:39] <DasEi> rigved: so 4to 5 gig swap, if hibernation is planned
[14:39] <rigved> dnivra: got it. thanx :)
[14:39] <dnivra> rigved, cool :).
[14:39] <geekbri> rigved: you should also check out information about "swappiness" because you can actually control how "swappy" your computer is
[14:40] <rigved> DasEi: yes. i was planning on hibernating sometime or the other.
[14:40] <rigved> geekbri: ok. i'll google it
[14:40] <geekbri> rigved: its not of vital importance just interesting :)
[14:40] <luxurymode> How can I edit the .bashrc file?
[14:40] <DasEi> rigved: the only real reason for such a big ram
[14:40] <Dr_Willis> luxurymode:  its a text file. use any text editor
[14:40] <Dr_Willis> luxurymode:  you may want to backup the original
[14:40] <DasEi> luxurymode: gksudo gedit /etc/bashrc.bashrc
[14:41] <dnivra> luxurymode, or use gedit; it's usually configured to create backups i believe.
[14:41] <Steve973> I'm using maverick, and it's telling me that my version of clamav engine is outdated.  is this just a little slow in getting into the repo?
[14:41] <rigved> DasEi: yes. :)
[14:42] <DasEi> luxurymode: fo backup, safe the file before any changes, add a BA to its name
[14:42] <rigved> geekbri: i'm interested. so i'm already up on it :)
[14:42] <geekbri> rigved: :D
[14:42] <Squarism> I wanna downgrade to a certain version of a installed (using apt-get)software.. this software is in a PPA ive added... is it possible to list available versions of a specific product?
[14:42] <luxurymode> DasEi, just add "BA" to the name somewhere?
[14:43] <luxurymode> DasEi, also when i opened in gedit, its empty. is that normal?
[14:43] <dnivra> Squarism, well since it's in a PPA, just remove the PPA from know repositories and then install from the main repository. it's highly likely PPA's much ahead of the main repository.
[14:43] <dnivra> Squarism, remove PPA, remove app, reinstall app. should be enough.
[14:43] <siku> where i can get help in ubuntu
[14:43] <DasEi> luxurymode: sudo cp /etc/bash.bashrc  /etc/bash.bashrc BA && gksudo gedit /etc/bash.bashrc
[14:43] <siku> where i can get help in ubuntu softwares
[14:43] <DasEi> !ask | siku
[14:44] <dnivra> siku, that would be here :)
[14:44] <Squarism> dnivra, this is not anything ubuntu/linux.. its very much a niche app...
[14:44] <DasEi> luxurymode: sudo cp /etc/bash.bashrc  /etc/bash.bashrcBA  && gksudo gedit /etc/bash.bashrc , no gap before BA
[14:44] <Squarism> dnivra, siku: Doesnt the PPA carry info for all available versions?
[14:44] <luxurymode> DasEi, so do that 2nd command first?
[14:45] <DasEi> luxurymode: sudo cp /etc/bash.bashrc  /etc/bash.bashrcBA  && gksudo gedit /etc/bash.bashrc
[14:45] <DasEi> ^one and only right line
[14:45] <n3> hola
[14:45] <dnivra> Squarism, yeah it should but you can download the latest version only i think: doubt you can download any earlier version.
[14:45] <luxurymode> DasEi, so just run that last cmd?
[14:45] <Dr_Willis> luxurymode:  do you want to change everyones bashrc? or just the users? or the system wide  bashrc? they all have differnt  jobs
[14:46] <luxurymode> Dr_Willis, i dunno ;) i just need to add android SDK to path
[14:46] <netbeast> i think i have the wrong driver for the webcam i dont need gspca i need spca
[14:46] <DasEi> Squarism: apt-cache show will display availabele packages, if you want to hold an older one, apt needs to be blocked from updating it, I'm not a fan of such
[14:46] <Performer> can someone help me in wine?
[14:47] <dnivra> !ask | Performer
[14:47] <DasEi> Performer: ask in #winehq
[14:47] <dnivra> Performer, wine does have it's own channel too.
[14:47] <Performer> DasEi nobody answering me lol
[14:47] <Dr_Willis> luxurymode:  you can do that on a per user setting by editing their own .bashrc or .bash_profile or .profile in their home dir
[14:47] <netbeast> why when i try to make  a install it says i dont have read write access to root tree
[14:47] <dnivra> Performer, just ask. if somebody knows, they'd help i guess.
[14:47] <Performer> ok
[14:47] <DasEi> Performer: what you want to install ? what tells wine --version ?
[14:47] <Performer> ty
[14:47] <luxurymode> Dr_Willis, ok how do i do that?
[14:48] <Dr_Willis> netbeast:  check if its mounted read/write via the 'mount' command. could be iuts had an issue and remounted read only
[14:48] <Dr_Willis> luxurymode:  edit the PATH lines in the proper config in theusers home dir. or add a new line to the end of .profile perhaps.
[14:48] <DasEi> ;-)
[14:48] <Sam_eYe_am> Need help with stuck pacakges. error: ""sudo apt-get purge ubuntu-restricted-extras && apt-get install ubuntu-restricted-extras""
[14:49] <Dr_Willis> luxurymode:  seems the .profile has a PATH line at the end.
[14:49] <Performer> DasEi nobody answering me can we pvt plz bro?
[14:49] <luxurymode> Dr_Willis, could you guide me through that?  sorry i need so much hand holding
[14:49] <DasEi> luxurymode: or get the cellar done before planing the roof.. (me ducks)
[14:49] <paldepind> Hi! Does anybody know why I can't play DVDs in Ubuntu 10.10. I've tried both Totem and VLC and I've got libdvdread4 installed..
[14:49] <Sam_eYe_am> Need help with stuck  packages "E: Could not open lock file /var/lib/dpkg/lock - open (13: Permission denied)
[14:49] <Sam_eYe_am> E: Unable to lock the administration directory (/var/lib/dpkg/), are you root?" error
[14:49] <luxurymode> DasEi, you mean set everything up then do the PATH changes?
[14:50] <DasEi> Performer: which app ? which wine version
[14:50] <simon34> how to select data bearer as data call in symbian s60 v5 mobiles? eg nokia 5230
[14:50] <rigved> geekbri: so what is the swappiness value in a default ubuntu install? 50?
[14:51] <DasEi> luxurymode: what I wanted to say is, if you just walk in the system a little more, many irritations costing you much time will then be self-explained
[14:51] <luxurymode> DasEi, oh ok. yeah, you're right
[14:51] <simon34> how to select data bearer as data call in symbian s60 v5 mobiles? eg nokia 5230
[14:52] <DasEi> luxurymode: you need some rural basic understanding of the os, and it's nothing hard or taking ages
[14:52] <luxurymode> right...
[14:53] <luxurymode> im just confused by the file system, etc and afraid of messing things up
[14:53] <dnivra> simon34, this is the hubuntu support channel. you might wanna go to the righ tchannel.
[14:53] <DasEi> luxurymode: go step by step, set up the system, there you learn a lot, and can ask, if things are unclear
[14:54] <Beelsebob> Hey, I have an ancient Pentium M 1.73Ghz laptop… I want to set it up for someone to browse t'internet + grab mail etc, am I better with the netbook edition, or the bog standard desktop ubuntu release?
[14:54] <Beelsebob> what differs between the two?
[14:54] <rigved> simon34: when you connect your phone and then click on the network manager icon in the top panel, you'll get an option to select the default bearer for your phone (like AT&T or Vodafone etc.)
[14:55] <geekbri> rigved: well you can check by doing cat /proc/sys/vm/swappiness
[14:55] <DasEi> Beelsebob: standard, how much ram ?
[14:55] <rigved> geekbri: yes. of course. ;-)
[14:55] <Dr_Willis> luxurymode:  when in doubt make backups..  You edit the last like of the .profile file, add the new path you want there.
[14:56] <Dr_Willis> PATH="$PATH:/usr/games:/new/path/here"
[14:56] <rigved> geekbri: it's 60 :)
[14:56] <Dr_Willis> luxurymode:  you may want to spend an hr or so reading some bash fundamentals also to learn what PATH even is. :)
[14:56] <mops1k> hello all
[14:56] <geekbri> rigved: 60 is actually a pretty good number for it... but its always fun to play with and see what you prefer :)
[14:56] <mops1k> somebody can help me?
[14:56] <Dr_Willis> Beelsebob:  you may wan to try lubuntu.  if you want a bit more speed.
[14:57] <simon34> how to select data bearer as data call in symbian s60 v5 mobiles? eg nokia 5230

[14:57] <Beelsebob> DasEi: 1GB
[14:57] <DasEi> mops1k: moving snow around ?
[14:57] <Beelsebob> Dr_Willis: what does it cut out of the standard version?
[14:57] <DasEi> Beelsebob: night consider using a light windowmanager then
[14:57] <Roasted_> Here's a fun problem. Ubuntu 10.04. Intel wireless. Works GREAT! One day I boot up, no wireless. The fix? I have to boot up with my wireless disabled and then activate it after I'm logged back in. lol?? How can I fix this?
[14:57] <DasEi> !minimal
[14:57] <todd2> is there a way to NOT shut off an ATX board after a shutdown?
[14:57] <rigved> geekbri: yes it means that i'll remove applications which have not been used in a long time. i'll experiment with it in my VM. thanx again
[14:57] <DasEi> !lowmemory
[14:58] <gnugr> simon34: go there #meego and ask them about
[14:58] <luxurymode> Dr_Willis, gotcha. how can i pull .profile to edit?
[14:58] <Beelsebob> DasEi: that seems to suggest that a "low memery" system is one with less than 192MB is that out of date now?
[14:58] <DasEi> Beelsebob: 1 gig is enough for gnome, but with many apps open, it could become-- slow
[14:58] <Beelsebob> I doubt they'll want many apps open
[14:58] <mops1k> i'm search nautilus-elementary packages, but developers delete it from ppa, someone can uploud it to filehosting somewhere for i386 system? who have it in cache?
[14:58] <Beelsebob> probably firefox + thunderbird and not much more
[14:59] <luxurymode> Dr_Willis, is this a good resource for learning bash?
[14:59] <rigved> simon34: when you connect your phone and then click on the network manager icon in the top panel, you'll get an option to select the default bearer for your phone (like AT&T or Vodafone etc.)

[14:59] <m4xx> how can i disallow users from editing pannels?
[15:00] <dnivra> Sam_eYe_am, you have to run it as root.
[15:00] <rigved> simon34: ok. what have you set it as earlier?
[15:00] <DasEi> Sam_eYe_am: are you root ? another apt open ?
[15:00] <luxurymode> Dr_Willis, can i just do $ vim .bash_profile ?
[15:00] <m4xx> i saw to modify /desktop/gnome/lockdown/lockdown_panel_config but i didnt have that key
[15:00] <m4xx> i tried adding it but it had no effect
[15:00] <simon34> pocket data
[15:01] <Dr_Willis> luxurymode:  use whatever editor you like.
[15:01] <DasEi> Beelsebob: anyway, use standard, not netbook, and alternate install is often easier on older hardware
[15:01] <Sam_eYe_am> I ran as root. and nothing is open. Just hung when installing through apt-get
[15:01] <Dr_Willis> luxurymode:  editorrname path/to/file     in a terminal :)

[15:01] <GCNR> Hi I am trying to install the nvidia drivers on my Dell Vostro 3700 running Ubuntu 10.10 (x86_64), but after I install nvidia-current, run nvidia-xconfig and reboot the X doesn't start... when I try to do that manually I get a server error saying "no screens found". How can I get that done?
[15:01] <luxurymode> Dr_Willis, can i just do sudo cp /etc/bash.bashrc  /etc/bash.bashrcBA  && gksudo gedit /etc/bash.bashrc?
[15:01] <mops1k> i'm search nautilus-elementary packages, but developers delete it from ppa, someone can uploud it to filehosting somewhere for i386 system? who have it in cache?
[15:02] <dnivra> Sam_eYe_am, it could be an apt lock then.
[15:02] <dnivra> !aptlock | Sam_eYe_am
[15:02] <Dr_Willis> luxurymode:  why do you need to edit the system bashrc? you can do it in yoru users home dir. and not need to mess with the system files at all.
[15:02] <DasEi> Beelsebob: netbook is specialized for todays mini-screens, not the older 14""//15""
[15:02] <Beelsebob> ah, k
[15:02] <Dr_Willis> luxurymode:  edit your users .profile and be done with it..
[15:02] <Beelsebob> I wondered if it was optimised for lower-resource systems
[15:02] <Beelsebob> rather than smaller screens
[15:02] <luxurymode> Dr_Willis, gotcha. how do i do that? ;)
[15:03] <luxurymode> so sorry, i know im a pain the ass
[15:03] <todd2> is there a way to NOT shut off an ATX board after a shutdown? And further more... is there a way to display a custom message at the end of the shutdown process?

[15:05] <Pacorab> hi all
[15:05] <gnugr> Sam_eYe_am: do you run on your PC apache2, mysql? if yes /var/lib is locked for some reason (mistake maybe).
[15:05] <DasEi> Sam_eYe_am: synaptic or softwarecenter open in parallel ?
[15:05] <amit> can i do yahoo video chat on ubuintu
[15:05] <Sam_eYe_am> Totem won't play any file types nor allow download of plugins help!
[15:06] <Sam_eYe_am> rigved, hey man still stuck on Totem and playing video
[15:06] <DasEi> amit: I haven't tried yahoo, but goole works on pidgin
[15:06] <Dr_Willis> Sam_eYe_am:  install the ubuntu-restricted-extras package perhaps. that should get a lot of the video codec files you m ay need
[15:07] <mops1k> Hey, somebody look at me?
[15:07] <rigved> Sam_eYe_am: hmmm. i don't remember the exact error. can you run it again in the terminal and tell me what the error is?
[15:07] <DasEi> ^apt is locked, Dr_Willis (at Sam..)
[15:07] <luxurymode> Dr_Willis, should i just ADD (as opposed to EDIT). So just add "PATH=$PATH:/usr/local/bin export PATH"?
[15:07] <Pacorab> i need help, i can't install ubuntu on my PC. I can boot via the CD, then ubuntu start to load , and after 1-2 mins  i get back to  some basic console, and a msg that "no live filesystem has been found" (something like that). i can type some stuff in the console, but i don't know what to type...
[15:08] <DasEi> Pacorab: looks like a bad cd in first hand
[15:08] <DasEi> Pacorab: did youi verify the download, tried cd on another box ?
[15:08] <Pacorab> no

[15:09] <Pacorab> i'll retry then. ok thx
[15:09] <Sam_eYe_am> rigved, is it possible to install plugins manually just to try to get totem working?
[15:09] <mops1k> i'm search nautilus-elementary packages, but developers delete it from ppa, someone can uploud it to filehosting somewhere for i386 system? who have it in cache? help me pls!))))
[15:09] <luxurymode> Dr_Willis, thanks. just add that?
[15:10] <DasEi> Pacorab: apart from an intact iso.file, burn at slow speed, and, oc cd must be bootable, it also has an option verify medium
[15:10] <Dr_Willis> mops1k:  since thats not an official ubuntu thing..  its not really sypported here.. you could check the webupd8 and omgubuntu  sites and see if anyone else has some infop on where its moved to. theres also some ppa-search tools out
[15:10] <Dr_Willis> !info ppasearch
[15:10] <Dr_Willis> !info ppa-search
[15:10] <amit> i install window xp by virtualization on ubuntu but my windows cannot working properly.as on standard mode
[15:10] <Dr_Willis> Hmm. thought hter ewas one in maverick..
[15:11] <Dr_Willis> amit:  clarify that a bit. you got 'xp installed in virtualbox , on ubuntu as the host os' and windows has some 'issue' ?
[15:11] <rigved> Sam_eYe_am: yes
[15:12] <gp5st> how do i disable the nvidia driver?  I can only use twinview for my two monitors instead of how gnome handled it before (two separate, but adjacent displays).  I did a system update and the gnome config program forces me to use the nvidia config now
[15:12] <luxurymode> Dr_Willis, .profile already has a statement that "sets path so it includes user's private bin if it exists. do i need to add the path there or just do it right below?
[15:12] <mops1k> packages deleted from launchpad ppa, because developers stoped this some days ago, i ask about some deb packages who have installed it in their /var/cache/apt/archives, to upload it to some file hosting
[15:12] <rigved> Sam_eYe_am: you can search Software Center and install only the plugins that you need
[15:13] <mops1k> all sites, that u say i am look before & use search for it, nobody do not share it in internet from cache for manual install
[15:13] <gp5st> could i just uninstall the nvidia-settings package?
[15:14] <Dr_Willis> luxurymode:  PATH="$PATH:/usr/games:/new/path/here"       <-------------------- This is the example i gave.. of an edit of the last line....
[15:14] <DasEi> gp5st: could, but unwise if prop. driver installed
[15:14] <todd2> is there a way to NOT shut off an ATX board after a shutdown? And further more... is there a way to display a custom message at the end of the shutdown process?
[15:14] <luxurymode> Dr_Willis, i should use games?
[15:14] <histo> todd2: what like suspend mode?
[15:15] <AbhiJit> hiiiiii
[15:15] <Dr_Willis> luxurymode:   use the path to whatever it is you are wanting to be using..
[15:15] <luxurymode> Dr_Willis, im a retard you just mean edit so it says levi/android_sdk"?
[15:15] <mops1k> Dr_Willis, did u have installed nautilus-elementary?
[15:15] <alireza83> help
[15:15] <todd2> histo: no... like making it as if it's an old AT system that you have to power off by a power switch after the OS is shut down
[15:15] <AbhiJit> alireza83, ask
[15:16] <histo> todd2: you can check int he bios for options on the soft switch
[15:16] <DasEi> todd2: or view man shutdown, different options there
[15:16] <amit> yes...that can not istall the driver cd peroperly, many exe files., even yahoo messenger
[15:16] <gp5st> DasEi: the nvidia settings, though, is horrible:(
[15:17] <gp5st> i just want to manage them like i did before the update
[15:17] <todd2> histo: hmm, I'll take a look. I already checked the 'shutdown --help', but I'll see if the man page mentions more.
[15:17] <DasEi> gp5st: youir opinion, but with driver installed handles setting more aprobiat
[15:17] <histo> todd2: I didn't suggest that. And the option you are looking for won't be there. It will be in the bios
[15:17] <gp5st> DasEi: it doesn't do what I want:) I don't like the option of not using one monitor or using twinview
[15:18] <AbhiJit> !details | amit
[15:18] <mops1k> Who have installed nautilus-elementary on maverik?=)
[15:18] <DasEi> todd2: try sudo shutdown -H now
[15:19] <DasEi> gp5st: which config you're after ?
[15:20] <MaartenPI> Hi guys, I'm trying to setup different virtual hosts with Ubuntu, so I can run multiple websites on Apache. SHould I ask for help here on how to setup the virtual hosts?
[15:20] <gp5st> DasEi: i want it to act like gnome treated it: two seperate but juxtaposed monitors essentiall. I don't want my screen to span both
[15:21] <DasEi> mops1k: first hit on mrs. allnkoogle : http://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/2010/09/nautilus-elementary-ppa-now-working-for-maverick-users/
[15:21] <Dr_Willis> of course Nautilus elementry is basically a dead project now from what i recall..  but you can always compile your own.
[15:21] <DasEi> gp5st: setting allow that, clone screens
[15:21] <gp5st> DasEi: I don't want a clone
[15:22] <mops1k> DasEi, ppa closed 2 days ago
[15:22] <gp5st> DasEi: also, nvida-settings dones't seem to even be able to do that
[15:22] <mops1k> i need packages from cache
[15:22] <DasEi> gp5st: you want too screens, showing same picture
[15:22] <DasEi> two*
[15:22] <gp5st> DasEi: no
[15:22] <DasEi> so span then ?
[15:22] <gp5st> DasEi: i want two screens, not a spanned screen
[15:22] <gp5st> Dasei: no
[15:23] <Dr_Willis> gp5st:  you mean 2 seperate X displays?
[15:23] <gp5st> yes
[15:23] <amit> i had installed on my virtual m/c XP and in that i can not open my yahoo messenger.that have an error
[15:23] <gp5st> i guess
[15:23] <Dr_Willis> gp5st:  nvidia-settings has that..... i find that feature rather useless...
[15:23] <mops1k> DasEi, packages from ppa was deleted
[15:23] <gp5st> but i could drag windows between them
[15:23] <mops1k> DasEi, have u installed it?
[15:23] <Dr_Willis> gp5st:  thats not 2 seperate X displays then.. thats one 'wide screen; using twinview'
[15:23] <gp5st> Dr_Willis: it won't let me do that, in fact it won't let me do anything right now:(
[15:23] <DasEi> mops1k: nope
[15:23] <gp5st> for the love of god, i don't want twin view
[15:24] <DasEi> .. or span
[15:24] <gp5st> before i did an update, gnome handled it perfectly, two seperate displays i could drag windows between
[15:24] <Dr_Willis> gp5st:  install nvidia drivers, reboot, login , run nvidia-settings, tweak xorg.conf as needed.. restart X. then  play with it.
[15:24] <mops1k> Dr_Willis, i know, but i can't compile
[15:24] <gp5st> Dr_Willis: i have the nvidia drivers, that's the problem
[15:24] <Dr_Willis> gp5st:  what you descrived was twinview...  you do not drag windows across 2 seperate 'x sessions'
[15:24] <gp5st> i want to get rid of them
[15:24] <mops1k> Dr_Willis, i need packeges from cache, who have installed it, understand?)
[15:24] <gp5st> no, twinview spanned my screen
[15:24] <gp5st> making a 3k by 1080 screen
[15:25] <gp5st> that's not what i want
[15:25] <Dr_Willis> gp5st:  yes.. thats how you 'drag' windows across from one monitor to the next.. its that or clone.. or 2 seperate displays.. where you cant drag them across...
[15:25] <Dr_Willis> gp5st:  so theres only 3 options really.
[15:25] <gp5st> :( gnome did it perfectly
[15:25] <DasEi> mops1k: it's understood, but seems nobody has it on his box.. compiling might be the faster way, if you don't like knoogle
[15:25] <amit> error is " this application is failed to start because its configration is in correct.reinstalling of application may resolve the problem. then  i install two time messenger from net but same error comes......similarly happen when i install my driver cd for graphics and sound
[15:25] <DasEi> !compile
[15:25] <Dr_Willis> gp5st:  it was proberly using ximerama. which is sort if is twinview
[15:26] <doug_> need some help, just got a new cable modem installed, all of a sudden, one of my ubuntu (10.04) boxes won't connect to the internet, I can connect to internal network just fine, any ideas?
[15:26] <mops1k> Dr_Willis, i have amd64 packages, but i need i386, i need somebody share it on filehosting for help me & other ppls
[15:26] <gp5st> Dr_Willis: nvidia-settings claims it doesn't exist
[15:26] <gp5st> err
[15:26] <gp5st> not on
[15:26] <histo> doug_: have you restarted this box?
[15:26] <doug_> yes, several times
[15:26] <histo> doug_: what happens when you try dig google.com
[15:26] <amit> i m using virual m/c just for yahoo video chat if u have alternative plz tell me
[15:26] <gp5st> also, nvidia settings doesn't support rotations, which gnome did
[15:26] <doug_> odd thing is that I dual boot with windows on it and windows is fine
[15:26] <goldins> mops1k: replace your machine, no one should be using i386 anymore
[15:27] <mops1k> Dr_Willis, i don't know how compil good this
[15:27] <Dev^null> hey all I am trying to figure out on a default install of Ubuntu desktop 9.4 where does fstab actually mount the drives what init script?
[15:27] <MaartenPI> anyone know where to setup eth0?
[15:27] <histo> Dev^null: what do you mean?
[15:27] <doug_> looks like it hit google ok, ping won't though
[15:27] <goldins> Dev^null: if you're screwing with it you're doing something wrong.
[15:27] <goldins> Dev^null: what is your actual problem.
[15:27] <histo> Dev^null: any drives in /etc/fstab get mounted on boot
[15:27] <DasEi> Dev^null: re-phrase question
[15:28] <histo> doug_: does it resolve google.com to an ip?
[15:28] <Dev^null> histo, I have a compact flash that needs to mount before mysql starts and this does not occur so I need to change the boot priority of mysql but I need to know where the drive is mounted so I know how high to set the priority
[15:28] <doug_> If I'm reading it right, yes it appears to
[15:28] <mops1k> goldins, this is bad variant
[15:29] <zetter> why isn't there a settings or edit option for the screensavers in maverick?
[15:29] <doug_> haven't used that command before so not totally confident at what I'm looking at
[15:29] <wn1zid> hey folks, is there a way to configure screen savers ?
[15:29] <zetter> wn1zid: :)
[15:29] <Pici> zetter: Because GNOME doesn't want you to be able to do that.
[15:29] <goldins> Dev^null: you should change the numbers at the end of the fstab line for that drive
[15:29] <doug_> says answer section: google.com 242 IN A and then address
[15:29] <mops1k> goldins, i can install amd64 on my machine, but i have a specific programs that workin only on i386 system
[15:29] <goldins> mops1k: no you don't.
[15:29] <goldins> there's no such thing.
[15:29] <histo> doug_: look at the answer section should say something like google.com 300 in a 74.125.229.blah
[15:29] <_joey> what is going on? where is the bloody su on this linux?
[15:29] <zetter> Pici: strange, first leaving out GIMP and now this... i dont like
[15:30] <doug_> yup that's what I get
[15:30] <gp5st> wn1zid: system>pref
[15:30] <Pici> zetter: You can install the xscreensaver package and then run xscreensaver-demo (be careful to make sure that you DON'T enable the xscreensaver daemon, and you can configure them from there).
[15:30] <histo> doug_: k try ping google.com
[15:30] <DasEi> Dev^null: or make mysql starting later (inittab)
[15:30] <Dev^null> what do you mean to what? they are currently 0 1
[15:30] <zetter> Pici: thx
[15:30] <amit> i m using ubuntu 10.10
[15:30] <Pici> zetter: This isn't anything Ubuntu has done, GNOME has been doing this for years.
[15:30] <doug_> ping sticks, doesn't hit at all
[15:30] <histo> doug_: ping 8.8.8.8
[15:30] <zetter> i see
[15:30] <wn1zid> cool, t pici
[15:30] <wn1zid> tx
[15:30] <mops1k> i see hehre not a so good chat as i think before, u can't help me(
[15:30] <mops1k> gl all
[15:30] <doug_> ping 8.8.8.8 nothing
[15:30] <XLV> anyone here has experienced problems with ubunty 10.10 and microsoft wireless notebook mouse 3000? it worked in previous ubuntu releases... now i get very choppy intermitted performance.. i use boot options acpi=off, noapic and nolapic
[15:30] <Pici> !root | _joey (and please mind your attiude)
[15:31] <_joey> how do I install ubuntu desktop?
[15:31] <histo> doug_: but you can ping internal ips fine?
[15:31] <_joey> I only have base currently
[15:31] <Dev^null> DasEi, Thats what I am trying to do. but I need to know where fstab starts..
[15:31] <wn1zid> ok, im out, have a great day people
[15:31] <_joey> what is the name of the package?
[15:31] <doug_> yes, I can even browse the local network and transfer files, etc
[15:31] <goldins> Dev^null: it appears that I'm wrong
[15:31] <Pici> _joey: ubuntu-desktop
[15:31] <histo> _joey: sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop
[15:31] <DasEi> Dev^null: intrd calls fstab/mounttab
[15:31] <histo> doug_: something must be messed up with your routes for that box then
[15:32] <Antonis> Hello folks. I have recently installed ubuntu 10.10 and added some hdds to fstab to automount them when I boot ubuntu. I now have a problem with nautilus showing each hdd twice one mounted and one unmounted that does nothing but being there.. is there a solution to this? I have added every entry by its UUID and not label or path
[15:32] <doug_> it shouldn't work in windows then though, should it?
[15:32] <histo> doug_: one would think not on the same box
[15:32] <DasEi> Dev^null: grub > kernel > fstab > fs > boot
[15:32] <histo> doug_: the router should be giving it the same ip most likely
[15:33] <histo> Dev^null: anything in fstab will get mounted prior to mysql starting
[15:33] <doug_> which makes me think it's not the router
[15:33] <MaartenPI> when adding a virtual interface, should i start with eth0:0 or eth0:1 ?
[15:33] <DasEi> Dev^null: is it possible that mysql can't read from the mount ?
[15:33] <doug_> even installed a wireless card and can connect via wireless but not to the internet, same results
[15:33] <_joey> so what is the  cool desktop?
[15:33] <_joey> xubuntu
[15:33] <_joey> kubuntu
[15:33] <_joey> ubuntu?
[15:33] <histo> doug_: any firewall installed?
[15:33] <FloodBot4> _joey: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
[15:33] <histo> !enter > _joey
[15:34] <DasEi> joeyjones: get a virtualbox and try yourself
[15:34] <cmiller> drip feed what?
[15:34] <_joey> ubottu I like pressing Enter button :)
[15:34] <joeyjones> DasEi: _joey != joeyjones
[15:34] <DasEi> joeyjones: sorry, I like enter too much :)
[15:34] <rigved> when installing, i want to set the partitions to be encrypted volumes. should i also set up the swap to be encrypted, or will that cause problems?
[15:35] <doug_> yes, just disabled but still same results
[15:35] <joeyjones> that reminds me, my debian server need a swap file since it has no swap partition
[15:35] <sly> never encrypt your boot ! will never be able to boot again
[15:35] <joeyjones> at one point it ran out of memory and was lcoked badly
[15:35] <DasEi> rigved: no that's fine
[15:35] <histo> doug_: i'm guessing it's not disabled
[15:35] <_joey> how is xubuntu-deskto differ from ubuntu-desktop?
[15:35] <DasEi> _joey: surface
[15:35] <joeyjones> _joey: different desktop enviroment
[15:36] <joeyjones> gnome, xfce, kde
[15:36] <rigved> DasEi: ok.
[15:36] <forteller> I'm trying to find info on how to install Thunderbird 3.3. Preferbly without having to build it myself. But I can't find it. Is it possible? Is there a .deb or ppa somewhere?
[15:36] <doug_> I tend to think the same thing but is there a command I can type to see if I have one up?  wondering if I put one in I can't remember
[15:36] <_joey> joeyjones different in what way?
[15:36] <joeyjones> ubuntu, xubuntu, kubuntu
[15:36] <_joey> xubuntu uses xfce?
[15:36] <joeyjones> yes
[15:36] <_joey> I see
[15:36] <_joey> Thanks!
[15:36] <joeyjones> it's really just preference
[15:36] <sly> what is xfce
[15:36] <rigved> sly: if i encrypt the partitions, will that also encrypt boot? are you talking about the boot folder under / ?
[15:36] <om26er> !xfce | sly
[15:37] <Myrtti> rigved: no
[15:37] <joeyjones> btw, trying to use a server with 0 free ram is a PITA
[15:37] <joeyjones> only root can login and can only use commands that don't fork
[15:37] <joeyjones> so, a lot of cat /proc onstead of normal tools
[15:37] <joeyjones> *instead
[15:37] <rigved> Myrtti: so it's fine as DasEi suggested?
[15:38] <Myrtti> rigved: as long as /boot is unencrypted, you can encrypt everything else, including swap
[15:38] <researcher1> I want to create a print server which can be given print commands from any windows PC connected in LAN. whats the way out
[15:38] <rigved> Myrtti: that means i'll have to set up a seperate partition for it
[15:39] <Myrtti> rigved: yes
[15:39] <forteller> Noone knows anything about installing Thunderbird 3.3?
[15:39] <blue112> Hi here.
[15:39] <blue112> When I'm on linux, few http server doesn't answer before the timeout is reached. Then, the server responds fast, but few minutes ago, that's happening again. That doesn't happens on the other OS on this computer. It also happens for all my colleges in the same room. I've already disabled IPV6. What can I do to fix that ?
[15:39] <rigved> Myrtti, DasEi: thanx
[15:40] <DasEi> rigved: np, use alternate installer, supports cryption better
[15:40] <doug_> I just disabled ufw, do you think if I upgrade to 10.10 this may resolve the issue?
[15:40] <rigved> DasEi: using that only
[15:40] <DasEi> :)
[15:41] <zetter> Pici: why shouldn't i enable the xscreensaver daemon??
[15:41] <error_203> how to use gif  image as your desktop background image?
[15:41] <Pici> zetter: Because it will interfere with gnome's screensaver.  They both store their settings in the same place though, so you can make configuration changes with xscreenaver-demo
[15:41] <rigved> btw, how much space does /boot need? 2 GB enough? or 8 GB?
[15:42] <zetter> Pici: can't i just disable gnome screensaver? and use xscreen?
[15:42] <om26er> rigved, 1gb is more than enough in my book ;)
[15:42] <Pici> zetter: Sure, if you want.
[15:42] <deww> rigved: 2GB is more than enough for now
[15:42] <zetter> ok
[15:42] <error_203> rigved:use 500mb its good
[15:44]  * om26er have a 100mb /boot :p
[15:44] <rigved> om26er, deww, error_203: thanx
[15:44] <_joey> how do I use a bot on this channel to answer frequently asked questions?

[15:45] <OerH> !factoids | _joey
[15:45] <kibibyte> why ubuntu package maintainers doesnt create any libreoffice package ?
[15:45] <kibibyte> now we stuck with openoffiice crap
[15:45] <Pici> kibibyte: Because we don't add new packages to the repositories in the middle of a release.
[15:45] <om26er> kibibyte, i think we would have it in archives before natty
[15:45] <_joey> !factoids | java
[15:46] <om26er> *in natty only*
[15:46] <rigved> kibibyte: maybe you could ask this also in #ubuntu-devel. from the developers temselves
[15:46] <kibibyte> om26er, before natty? is codename for next ubuntu relase?
[15:46] <zetter> Pici: xscreensaver seems to be flickering
[15:46] <kibibyte> ok
[15:46] <om26er> kibibyte, yes the codename of 11.04
[15:46] <mw44118-scratch> I'm running 10.4 LTS on my server, and it comes with python2.6.  Will python2.7 ever become available in 10.4 LTS?

[15:47] <om26er> oo[s
[15:47] <rigved> !natty | kibibyte
[15:47] <om26er> you can install it ofcourse
[15:47] <sly> mw44118-scratch> just install it dude
[15:47] <rigved> mw44118-scratch: backports
[15:47] <wrd> mw44118-scratch: you'll probably have to backport it or look in the ppa's if somebody backported it already
[15:47] <_joey> !sunjava | _joey
[15:47] <mw44118-scratch> rigved: yeah, backports.  How do I look in the ppa's?  I don't know what that is.
[15:47] <sly> how do i send private msg ? without using the mouse

[16:04] <Gorilla_No_Baka> right.. any of you guys know how to change the background color of windows from inside of the gtkrc-2.0 ? cheers
[16:04] <error_203> DasEi: thax for helping sir
[16:04] <zoke> is 256MB if ram enough for ubuntu to run on a server?
[16:04] <Pici> zoke: Sure.
[16:04] <rs0832> szoke: yes
[16:04] <DasEi> zoke: headless and not too high load, yes
[16:05] <h3llb0y> headlees means?
[16:05] <h3llb0y> no gui?
[16:05] <DasEi> h3llb0y: no x
[16:05] <h3llb0y> ok
[16:05] <zoke> Currently I have just a server with nothing useful running and it only has 16 mb free
[16:05] <DasEi> zoke: from 256 total ?
[16:05] <zoke> what could be taking so much memory away from me?
[16:05] <riktking> can i set up a PXE netboot where the server is not the DHCP server?
[16:05] <Computer> headless can mean no GUI depending on context :3
[16:06] <DasEi> zoke: check htop for what's taking up so much ram
[16:07] <Gorilla_No_Baka> right.. any of you guys know how to change the background color of windows from inside of the gtkrc-2.0 ? cheers
[16:07] <Pici> zoke: Are you sure that only 16 are free? Check the +/- buffers/cache line from `free` for the actual amount.
[16:07] <KM0201> Gorilla_No_Baka: you mean like the background of nautilus?.. the file browser?
[16:08] <error_203> suppose if i install some s/w and that software is not showing in the menu lists,then how should i take it in one of menu lists
[16:08] <Gorilla_No_Baka> KM0201:  yeah pretty much yeah except for the fact that i do not run nautilus but rox.. this is a minimla install thing
[16:08] <zoke> Pici: -/+ buffers/cache:      17768     231876
[16:08] <Pici> error_203: If you're talking about imagemagic, thats a cli program.
[16:08] <zoke> why is it different than the line above it?
[16:08] <KM0201> Gorilla_No_Baka: oh ok.. not sure on Rox
[16:08] <error_203> pici:what is cli program
[16:08] <Pici> error_203: command line interface
[16:09] <Pici> zoke: Because thats how much ram the kernel is caching.  Its effectively free.
[16:09] <error_203> pici:thanx sir
[16:09] <DasEi> error_203: you can create your own launcher or run it from commandline=cli
[16:09] <zoke> Pici, understood. Thanks!
[16:09] <Pici> zoke: You may want to take a look at this for a more technical discussion: http://sourcefrog.net/weblog/software/linux-kernel/free-mem.html

[16:09] <ikonia> oops
[16:09] <error_203> DasEi:sir how to do this?will you please help me.
[16:10] <Moriaantje> Is there a command to check if a server is configured to accept a specific domainname
[16:10] <h3llb0y> whats the best IRC client?
[16:10] <Pici> !best | h3llb0y
[16:10] <Pici> Moriaantje: What do you mean exactly?
[16:10] <DasEi> error_203: which app ? imagemagick is ment to be terminal
[16:10] <Moriaantje> @Pici, I am setting up a server with some domain on it
[16:10] <KM0201> h3llb0y: what are you using now?
[16:10] <h3llb0y> xchat
[16:10] <Moriaantje> and i would like to know if it accepts the domains
[16:11] <tiox> Need some quick help.
[16:11] <Moriaantje> (as if I would go their like a website)
[16:11] <KM0201> h3llb0y: well, IMO.. thats probably the best... it's easy to setup etc.. but there's a lot of different irc clients for Linux.
[16:11] <DasEi> ask..
[16:11] <error_203> DasEi: sir m not more familiar with these,so please u tell me taking an simple example
[16:11] <h3llb0y> guess i'll try out some more
[16:11] <zoke> also, why is the universe repo not enabled by default?
[16:11] <tiox> I changed the domain of where docky comes from through Software Sources, but I need the keyfile so I can actually start getting stuff from it.
[16:11] <zoke> I cannot get the tool htop for example, because apt-get only checks main
[16:12] <tiox> Can I be directed where in launchpad I can get the keyfile for docky maverick stable?
[16:12] <Moriaantje> I can test it by changing my hosts file to send me to the "correct" ip for a website
[16:12] <Moriaantje> but I was wondering if I can "fake" that behavior with a command
[16:12] <riktking> can i set up a PXE netboot where the server is not the DHCP server?
[16:12] <DasEi> error_203: convert -delay 100 -loop 0 image*.gif animation.jpg
[16:13] <error_203> DasEi:u said imagemagick is ment to terminal.what does it mean
[16:13] <DasEi> error_203:man imagemackig tells you more
[16:13] <itilious> hello everyone
[16:13] <rigved> which encryption is better for encrypted volumes - AES, Blowfish, Twofish, Serpent? or is this the wrong channel to ask?
[16:13] <DasEi> error_203:terminal = cli= bash = ..
[16:13] <rash502> hi all
[16:13] <shebh> hi all
[16:13] <error_203> DasEi:thanx sir
[16:13] <shebh> welcome
[16:14] <rash502> i have problem in php point of sale
[16:14] <itilious> why would my /sys/ folder be empty, is this the result of malicious activity on my ubuntu lucid installation?
[16:14] <shebh> i have prroxey ?
[16:14] <rash502> No direct script access allowed
[16:14] <rash502> i have problem in php point of sale
[16:14] <RobinJ> can your system still run as it should itilious? if yes, then there's nothing to worry about i think :p
[16:15] <itilious> my system does not boot anymore, i'm on livecd, how can i find the files to diagnose why my system hangs after plymouth screen?
[16:16] <DasEi> itilious: /var/log there : syslog, messages
[16:17] <itilious> DasEi, I checked there and it does not have any entries for today
[16:17] <will__> fdas
[16:17] <itilious> which i've tried booting 3 times today, 3rd time gave it over 15 min, and still no log entries
[16:17] <rabcnesbitt> Hi. I am trying to setup Readynas duo (comes without a harddisk) I have installed harddisk how do i format it. Can any1 here help me or know chatroom where i can get help tia
[16:18] <itilious> is there maybe another log file that logs during earlier boot?
[16:18] <DasEi> itilious: you will have to chrrot in then, do an update/grade , also check initrd and grub
[16:18] <rash502> any one have installed php point of sale
[16:18] <DasEi> .. and maybe a fs-check
[16:18] <rash502> any one have installed php point of sale
[16:18] <Pici> !anyone | rash502
[16:18] <nikitis> How come when I do a compiz --replace & it works, but kills my gnome panel bars?
[16:19] <itilious> there was 2 times that it boot and said an error that couldnt load boot daemon and was stuck at a command propmpt
[16:19] <chicognu> I install windows xp and grub2 disapear, Im now on live cd, how I fix it
[16:19] <itilious> now it gets and animates plymouth fully, but never actually starts
[16:20] <DasEi> itilious: so either a fs-issue, kernelpanic behind plymouth or borked grub (wrong uuid)
[16:20] <DrDamnit> I have a raid driver (RocketRaid 2300) that I need to give to anaconda during install so I can install to a RAID 5 series. How do I slipstream the driver or use a floppy to give setup the driver?
[16:20] <rash502> i have made every thing in the read me file in the php point sale and i have setup mysql and apache2 i cant access database.php
[16:20] <i0nic> anyone have a link for installing ubuntu on a thumbdrive?
[16:21] <DasEi> !unetbootin
[16:21] <Pici> rash502: What happens when you try?
[16:21] <nikitis> chicognu, you'll have to google how, but i'll steer you in the right direction.  On the live disc, you'll have to manually mount your linux root parition.  Then do a grub-install again.
[16:21] <DasEi> i0nic: saw ubott.. ?
[16:21] <rash502> No direct script access allowed
[16:22] <rash502> in the browser
[16:22] <nikitis> Anyone know why gnome-panel bars disappear when re-enabling compiz from metacity?
[16:22] <itilious> DasEi, to check out grub you say,, do i look at /etc/default/grub?
[16:22] <chicognu> nikitis, ok, I already did it, and grub is reinstalled, but without the menus ... just a grub bash like
[16:22] <rash502> Pici:No direct script access allowed
[16:22] <nikitis> chicognu, hmm try a grub-update
[16:23] <DasEi> itilious: no, you will have to chrrot into internal hd, assuming it's the first drive : sudo grub-install --recheck /dev/sda
[16:23] <itilious> can i uninstall a plymouth theme from an install ubuntu with a livece?
[16:23] <chicognu> nikitis, with the same options I use to run grub-install ?
[16:23] <rash502> Pici:i googled nothing
[16:23] <nikitis> what DasEi said
[16:23] <Pici> rash502: That sounds like a misconfiguration issue with your php application.
[16:23] <i0nic> DasEi: Yes, ty. does it matter if i go 32 bit or 64?
[16:23] <Jemt> Hi. Ubuntu has two icons in the top panel - a letter and a chat/speech bubble. What are their application names? I want to uninstall them
[16:23] <DasEi> itilious: yes, from the chroot
[16:24] <DasEi> i0nic: no, dependson the boxes should be booting it
[16:24] <dnivra> Jemt, i guess letter is evolution and chat/speech bubble includes your chat client and gwibber. why do you want to uninstall them/
[16:24] <chicognu> nikitis, and the is no grub-update just update-grub
[16:24] <luke_> hello, I'm trying to edit permissions on a .exe file, however the box auto unchecks, any ideas? I already have wine installed. the file is on my windows 7 partition and is installed for windows but im fairly sure if it would become executable I could use it with out a problem
[16:24] <DasEi> i0nic: 32 boots on 64, too
[16:24] <Jemt> dnivra: Thanks. I don't want to use them
[16:25] <rash502> Pici:the php admin is working and php test is working
[16:25] <DasEi> i0nic: whereas can't fix a 64 system with a 32 usb-boot
[16:25] <i0nic> DasEi: its a brand new dell laptop, i5
[16:25] <Jemt> dnivra: I don't think it's just Evolution. I can set up chat as well
[16:25] <DasEi> so 64
[16:25] <dnivra> Jemt, if just to remove the icons, just remove the icons instead. but i guess that takes out the entire notification area. hmmm okay but i doubt those icons will go.
[16:25] <DasEi> i0nic: 64 so
[16:25] <DrDamnit> I have a raid driver (RocketRaid 2300) that I need to give to kickstart during install so I can install to a RAID 5 series. How do I slipstream the driver or use a floppy to give setup the driver?
[16:25] <nikitis> chicognu, i believe so
[16:25] <Pici> rash502: I mean with your POS application itself.
[16:25] <Jemt> dnivra: Okay, appriciate your help. I'll dig into it :)
[16:25] <dnivra> Jemt, well i don't use evolution either :). sure give it a shot!
[16:25] <nikitis> chicognu, update grub usually reassesses where the installed partitions are located
[16:25] <nikitis> and should fix the menu
[16:26] <itilious> DasEi, do i need the drive mounted for it? i've tried both and still get error "can't find device"
[16:26] <rash502> Pici:i have made the data base they ask me and i edit in the conf database.php password and db name
[16:26] <DasEi> itilious: you are on live now ?
[16:26] <KM0201> luke_: doesn't it have to be installed inside wine, in order for it to operate?
[16:27] <rash502> pici:i dont know what i have missed ohhhhh
[16:27] <luke_> it might but the problem is it wont become executable
[16:27] <itilious> DasEi, yes
[16:27] <DasEi> itilious: sudo fdisk -l
[16:27] <rash502> Pici:i am working a lot on this
[16:28] <DasEi> itilious: which is your root partiton ?
[16:28] <KM0201> luke_: have you tried chmodding it?... sudo chmod 777 /path/to/file/filename.exe
[16:28] <luke_> when i check the executable box it unchecks it real quick
[16:28] <itilious> the first /dev/sda1
[16:28] <KM0201> luke_: you likely don't have permission to modify it.
[16:28] <dwalker> Hey anyone, I'm attempting to roll together a non-interactive install CD using a pressed file, and the mini.iso.  I'm to the point of using mkisofs to wrap up the image to a .iso, however i'm getting weird error of genisoimage not able to locate the boot image.  I've tried -b /full/bath/to/raw/isolinux.bin, and relative to the disk root -b "isolinux.bin"  both fail, anyone have a solution/better channel to ask this on?
[16:28] <itilious> i tried using that too, inplace of /dev/sda but still same error
[16:28] <DasEi> itilious: mount , no further args, sda1 not mounted ?
[16:29] <itilious> DasEi, no, nothing is mounted other than jumpdrive livecd
[16:29] <disgrntld> is there a way to find out how I got a package? i.e. did I install it directly or did it get pulled in as a dependency?
[16:29] <saliak> I'm ssh'd into a computer with a monitor.  I want to launch VLC to display on the monitor that's connected to the system (I don't have X forwarding on my connection).  how would i start that?  I know it has something to do with DISPLAY := 0, but i forget the exact syntax
[16:29] <DasEi> itilious: fine, not mounted, then : sudo e2fsck /dev/sda1
[16:29] <luke_> chmod 777, i get "bash: syntax error near unexpected token `('"
[16:29] <DasEi> itilious: clean or errors found ?
[16:29] <rash502> point of sale i have made the data base they ask me and i edit in the conf database.php password and db name
[16:29] <rash502> \
[16:29] <KM0201> luke_: what was the entire command you put in the terminal
[16:30] <luke_> sudo chmod 777 /media/A800172B0016FFCC/Program Files (x86)/Steam/steam.exe
[16:30] <itilious> DasEi, says found errors, should i simply choose y? lol
[16:30] <DasEi> itilious: ctrl-c it
[16:30] <KM0201> luke_: put "  at the beginning and end of the path...
[16:30] <chicognu> do
[16:30] <DasEi> itilious:  sudo e2fsck -y /dev/sda1
[16:30] <chicognu> nikitis, don`t work
[16:31] <chicognu> nikitis, don`t work there is not a options like --root-directory in update-grub
[16:31] <chicognu> and without it keep saying that my / is not mounted
[16:31] <Ov3R> hi all
[16:31] <DasEi> itilious: repair finished ?
[16:32] <i0nic> ugh
[16:32] <itilious> DasEi,  http://pastebin.com/p9DbvvF3
[16:32] <luke_> chmod 77 went through, but i still cant edit the permissions, KM0201 how would i get permission
[16:32] <i0nic> the meerkat torrent is taking forever
[16:32] <riktking> can i set up a PXE netboot where the server is not the DHCP server for the network????????
[16:32] <rash502> who can help me in php point of sale setup i did every thing
[16:32] <itilious> DasEi, yes should i reboot? or do other things need to be checked ? lol
[16:32] <AbhiJit_> rash502, #php
[16:32] <nikitis> chicognu, i don't know then, been awhile since I had that problem
[16:32] <nikitis> chicognu, i always install windows first
[16:32] <macsmister> What's the best way to install IE6 on Ubuntu?
[16:33] <DasEi> itilious: try reboot, if it hangs, come back on live here
[16:33] <rash502> AbhiJit:i will ask thanks
[16:33] <chicognu> macsmister, winetricks
[16:33] <DasEi> !ie | macsmister
[16:33] <KM0201> luke_: try sudo chmod +x "/path/to/file/filename.exe"
[16:33] <nikitis> macsmister, winetricks
[16:33] <luke_> macsminster winetricks
[16:33] <DasEi> hehe
[16:33] <itilious> awesome, thanks
[16:33] <sacarlson> riktking: wow I'm not sure, maybe if you wrote your own boot script like in some small mini boot cd?
[16:33] <macsmister> thanks guys.
[16:33] <nikitis> Anyone have their gnome panel bars disappear when switching to compiz?
[16:33] <c0nsense> hey! i have a laptop with usb and cd/dvd broken, so i need install ubuntu with the hd in other PC as slave, but when i put it back on laptop it's show me and mapping error with sdc1, how to solve this problem? any ideas?
[16:33]  * KM0201 wonders why on earth someone would install IE on Linux..
[16:33] <DasEi>  macsmister: wine, look in their
[16:33] <DasEi> !appDB
[16:33] <luke_> lol
[16:34] <riktking> sacarlson, is it not easy???
[16:34] <error_203> o/hi
[16:34] <dwalker> KM0201: web developers :'(
[16:34] <sacarlson> riktking: if live boot cd is an option all I can say is it's not imposible
[16:34] <KM0201> dwalker: i'd rather run a small windows install in virtualbox, than run it in Wine (which often doesn't work very well anyway, IMO)
[16:34] <Pweg> riktking: check out LTSP, I think that's the kind of thing you might be looking for
[16:34] <m4xx> what about web developers?
[16:35] <riktking> Pweg, sacarlson thanks
[16:35] <chicognu> macsmister, here I run Ubuntu64 many Windows appz that is listed to be working with wine don`t work for me
[16:35] <dwalker> m4xx: that we actually need to test crap in IE, since god only knows if you use chrome to do all you're devving you're going to cry when you try to see the site in IE
[16:35] <macsmister> chicognu, all I need is IE6, to sign in to a work database.
[16:35] <KM0201> chicognu: it's an imperfect program for sure... when it works, it usually works well, when it fails, it's usually quite spectacular.. :)
[16:35] <sacarlson> riktking: I have a system that can't pxeboot boot so I have a cd that is made to do that,  so you would need to modify that boot cd I guess.
[16:35] <macsmister> winetrick should do the trick! :-)
[16:35] <c0nsense> hey! i have a laptop with usb and cd/dvd broken, so i need install ubuntu with the hd in other PC as slave, but when i put it back on laptop it's show me and mapping error with sdc1, how to solve this problem? any ideas?
[16:36] <m4xx> at least we get to stop supporting ie6 ;]
[16:36] <chicognu> KM0201, :D
[16:36] <KM0201> dwalker: so you're gonna test w/ IE6?.. isn't IE up to like 8 or 9 now?
[16:36] <luke_> installed udo, did udo chmod +x got this:
[16:36] <luke_> "Error:  0: couldn't open source file </media/A800172B0016FFCC/Program Files (x86)/Steam/steam.exe>
[16:36] <luke_> /media/A800172B0016FFCC/Program Files (x86)/Steam/steam.exe: No such file or directory"
[16:36] <DrDamnit> How do I add drivers to a custom ubuntu distro?
[16:36] <dwalker> KM0201: yeah, but you know how many of our clients still are on IE6...shit the US government is still only using IE6 everywhere, and we gotta support them.
[16:36] <chicognu> macsmister, it does, in general way, with absolute sure if you use a 32bit system it will do the jobs perfect
[16:36] <macsmister> the database frontend is compatible with ie6. we don't have enough devs to upgrade the frontend at this time...
[16:37] <sacarlson> riktking: but if you just went with a pxeboot that uses just bios then I think you need a dhcp server
[16:37] <macsmister> chicognu, I use 32bit.
[16:37] <KM0201> dwalker: well... the us govt has never been efficient at anything... i'm surprised they're not using windows 3.0.. but thats another forum.
[16:37] <macsmister> Should be good ;-)
[16:37] <chicognu> macsmister, will be :D
[16:37] <riktking> sacarlson, i have a DHCP server on the network (the router)
[16:37] <m4xx> http://dearie6.com <3
[16:38] <i0nic> how large is the 64x 10.10 iso?
[16:38] <itilious> DasEi, worked like a charm, thanks so much :)
[16:38] <KM0201> iO
[16:38] <IdleOne> i0nic: should be just under 700mb
[16:38] <DasEi> itilious: nice to read, have fun
[16:38] <KM0201> i0nic: it's like 698 i think, should fit on a CD
[16:38] <kanzie> how do I query apt-repository to see which php version it will install with php5?
[16:39] <itilious> DasEi, forgive me for asking, but what was the command again though? and it is something a noob should be reading into? lol
[16:39] <chicognu> I install Windows XP and my grub is gone. How i fix it ?
[16:39] <DasEi> kanzie: apt-cache show PACKAGENAME
[16:39] <sacarlson> riktking: well I think you would have to turn that dhcp server off and use the dhcp server from your ubuntu,  or if the dhcp server is like modifiable then maybe you could set it up to point to your ubuntu to continue the pxeboot
[16:39] <KM0201> chicognu: is your ubuntu install still present?
[16:39] <c0nsense> hey
[16:39] <Jemt> Packages marked with a star (*) in apt-get are meta packages, right ?
[16:39] <DasEi> !grub | chicognu
[16:39] <luke_> udo chmod +x didnt work
[16:39] <chicognu> KM0201, yes, it is
[16:40] <c0nsense> on grub.cfg can i change "set root='(hd2,msdos2)'" for "set root='(sdc1,msdos2)'" ??
[16:40] <KM0201> chicognu: what version of ubuntu?
[16:40] <KM0201> luke_: i really don't know.. you have one mysterious system.
[16:40] <glicks> i wish ubuntu had a YaST equivalent of starting and stopping and setting up services from a gui
[16:40] <luke_> hmm
[16:40] <riktking> sacarlson, thanks
[16:40] <chicognu> KM0201, It is a shame to say, but I don`t remember lol ... the LTS, but the name I don`t remember
[16:40] <dnivra> luke_, is it a windows partition? cos I have had same problem in setting permissions in windows partitions.
[16:40] <chicognu> DasEi,
[16:40] <DasEi> itilious: fsck/e2fsck are important and also to be handled with care, aka not to be run with "heavy" options on mounted filesystems
[16:41] <c0nsense> !grub | consense
[16:41] <error_203> in ubuntu;supose i open  firefox and type google.com but instead of google.com the other website open.how to do this
[16:41] <DasEi> chicognu: I 'm here
[16:41] <KM0201> chicognu: well thats pretty important, because if it's 8.04(LTS) that uses grub 1, if it's 10.04(LTS) that requires grub2
[16:41] <DasEi> chicognu: got to boot live cd and reinstall grub
[16:41] <chicognu> KM0201, 10.04 grub 2
[16:41] <chicognu> DasEi, it is not so simple
[16:42] <KM0201> chicognu: ok, well, boot the live cd, and follow the instructions in the link to reinstallg rub 2
[16:42] <KM0201> *grub 2
[16:42] <glicks> is there a ubuntu YaST equivalent?
[16:42] <DasEi> chicognu: whole story ?
[16:42] <DasEi> glicks: apt
[16:42] <KM0201> glicks: isn't YaST the suse package manager?
[16:42] <zroysch1> hello
[16:42] <sacarlson> riktking: on my system I just have my adsl dhcp turned off, and I do the dhcp from ubuntu, all the adsl modems I've seen have that option
[16:42] <glicks> KM0201, yast also allows you to start, stop and configure services from a nice gui
[16:43] <DasEi> glicks: synaptics, softwarecenter
[16:43] <rabcnesbitt> I am formatting a 2tb (ext3) harddisk how long should it take to format been going now 10mins.
[16:43] <KM0201> glicks: i'm not aware of something that allows you to configure services from GUI... but software center will let you install/remove apps
[16:43] <zroysch1> i just installed ubuntu 10.10 on my desktop and my laptop. i transferred the .purple config files for pidgin from the desktop to the laptop through the cat5 LAN. Is this an acceptable transfer rate? it seems incredibly slow. http://i.imgur.com/I19gt.png
[16:43] <riktking> sacarlson, i have DHCP on the router, if i switch it off will i need to reconfigure it to look to the server
[16:43] <chicognu> DasEi, wait, I will tell all the story ... before I will re-read the how to ... but resuming: root@ubuntu:/home/ubuntu# update-grub /usr/sbin/grub-probe: error: cannot find a device for / (is /dev mounted?).
[16:43] <KM0201> rabcnesbitt: well more than 10min.
[16:43] <KM0201> lol
[16:44] <glicks> KM0201, yast2 is pretty sweet
[16:44] <DasEi> chicognu: looks like not properly chroot'ed; story is dualboot, first installed ubu, then win, now grub is gone ?
[16:44] <ciss> hi
[16:44] <acbalingit> hello
[16:44] <KM0201> glicks: well, thats pretty irrelevant...
[16:45] <DasEi> chicognu: ?
[16:45] <chicognu> DasEi, it is not chroot .. yes, ubuntu then win and grub is gone
[16:45] <ciss> addgroup allows to either create a user group or a system group. what is the difference between the two, beside their guid ranges?
[16:45] <rabcnesbitt> Is there not a ext3 Quick format (same as xp quick/slow format)
[16:45] <glicks> KM0201, im just saying i wish ubuntu had something similar
[16:45] <sacarlson> riktking: if the router is no longer the dhcp then you ubuntu server will have to provide the dhcp server and be setup as a static ip that points to the router as the gateway to the internet
[16:45] <KM0201> glicks: well, i wish suse didn't suck.. so i guess we all wish for something. :)
[16:45] <Choons> Hey guys. Kinda odd question: I just accidentally deleted the partition table on my laptop. It is imperative that I retrieve this. I've tried Gpart (no luck.) anyone know what I could do? Perhaps use dd to find the mbr? But I wouldn't know where to look. Any suggestions?
[16:45] <glicks> KM0201, thats irrelavant
[16:46] <DasEi> chicognu: k, I want to log off soon, grab a live with same architecture (32 to 32, 64 for 64) as the internal grub, let's get done ..
[16:46] <glicks> KM0201, im just saying i think that would improve ubuntu
[16:46] <KM0201> Choons: how on earth did you do that
[16:46] <glicks> relax dude, this isnt a personal attack on you
[16:46] <KM0201> glicks: i don't...
[16:46] <gnugr> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto
[16:46] <chicognu> DasEi,  sorry if i took too much time to anwser ... i cant think clear today
[16:46] <Choons> KM0201: Formatting a usb stick; was deleting the partition map but hit the wrong drive and the confirmation message didn't come up
[16:46] <c0nsense> ??????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????
[16:46] <DasEi> chicognu: me being ignorant, dragging you :)
[16:46] <c0nsense> ????
[16:46] <chicognu> DasEi, Im with a live cd to my arch
[16:46] <KM0201> Choons: yuck... bet you never do that again
[16:47] <zroysch1> i just installed ubuntu 10.10 on my desktop and my laptop. i transferred the .purple config files for pidgin from the desktop to the laptop through the cat5 LAN. Is this an acceptable transfer rate? it seems incredibly slow. http://i.imgur.com/I19gt.png
[16:47] <Choons> KM0201: Haha, you bet your ass
[16:47] <DasEi> chicognu: arch live cd ?
[16:47] <Choons> KM0201: Any ideas?
[16:47] <chicognu> DasEi, sorry again . Im with the live cd to my architecture type. x64
[16:47] <KM0201> Choons: nothing that doesn't involve me laughing and swearing at how you could be paying so little attention
[16:48] <Choons> KM0201: Fair enough.
[16:48] <DasEi> chicognu: you are in live now ?
[16:48] <aleloren> #Stud.IP
[16:48] <chicognu> DasEi, yes
[16:48] <DasEi> chicognu:k, open terminal
[16:48] <chicognu> ok
[16:48] <DasEi> chicognu:sudo -s
[16:48] <KM0201> ..
[16:48] <nikitis> What's the library files for opencl?
[16:48] <DasEi> chicognu:umount -a
[16:48] <nikitis> called
[16:48] <chicognu> ok
[16:48] <DasEi> chicognu:press  ctrl+d
[16:49] <DasEi> press*
[16:49] <joeyjones> Choons: i'd suggest you backup everything now :p
[16:49] <chicognu> DasEi, nices shortcuts
[16:49] <geojanm> hi@ all who know a software to set up a proxy server supporting livecompression of the requested sites
[16:49] <KM0201> joeyjones: lmao
[16:49] <chicognu> ?D
[16:49] <DasEi> chicognu: fdisk -l
[16:49] <chicognu> :D
[16:49] <BajK_> where do i see the file system a usb stick is formatted withß
[16:49] <DasEi> chicognu: which /dev  is your root ?
[16:49] <geojanm> i know ziproxy, but can't get this working due to bad manual
[16:49] <BajK_> thx got it.
[16:49] <flossk> Is 60hz bad for my eyes ? screen resolution 1024 X 768
[16:50] <BajK_> (stupid that it is not shown in properties dialog)
[16:50] <Choons> joeyjones: Yea I would like to :] But I have to recover these partitions... There must be a record of partition delimiters somewhere on my drive. I'm using dd atm to browse the filesystems raw (which is working to some extent)
[16:50] <DasEi> flossk: lcd ?
[16:50] <chicognu> DasEi, nothing show in fdisk -l
[16:50] <joeyjones> Choons: did you reboot already?
[16:50] <flossk> DasEi, Yes
[16:50] <flossk> I am using a laptop
[16:50] <DasEi> chicognu: l= lower L
[16:50] <DasEi> flossk: ok for that
[16:50] <joeyjones> Choons: maybe https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DataRecovery
[16:50] <dwalker> I'll take another stab at this, anyone here familiar with using mkisofs?
[16:50] <DasEi> chicognu: fdisk -l  as root
[16:51] <chicognu> DasEi, by root you mean the partition where my ubuntu are installed ?
[16:51] <flossk> DasEi, My eyes started to hurt a bit I was thinking that, that could be the reason
[16:51] <chicognu> DasEi, if so, it is sda7
[16:51] <DasEi> chicognu: sda7 is your root partition, and in terminal you are logged in as root
[16:51] <genii-around> BajK_: I'm pretty sure you can also fdisk a dd image file as if it were the drive. So sudo fdisk -l whatever.img   or so works and tells you the old partition table
[16:52] <Choons> joeyjones: Yeah I did. I hadn't instructed gparted to apply any changes, so I assumed it hadn't actually done anything
[16:52] <chicognu> DasEi, I don`t get what you mean
[16:52] <DasEi> flossk: it's the under border, but lcds don't flicker as early as crt
[16:52] <Choons> joeyjones: But yea, I suppose that was a little stupid
[16:52] <chicognu> DasEi, I don`t get what you mean ~and in terminal you are logged in~
[16:52] <CheBuzz_Home> How can I see what service are set to start at boot time?
[16:52] <DasEi> chicognu: you are logged in as root
[16:52] <chicognu> yes
[16:52] <joeyjones> Choons: GUI apps often don't ask for confirmation like CLI apps do :p
[16:53] <joeyjones> Choons: did you have multiple partitions, or only 1?
[16:53] <bonjoyee> how can set a different LD_LIBRARY_PATH only for apps under /usr/local/bin...?
[16:53] <DasEi> chicognu: fine so, is there a seperate /boot in your linux install (full disk encryption ?)
[16:53] <chicognu> DasEi, I mean no ... I get root in the terminal emulator
[16:53] <joeyjones> Choons: you can try to guess your partition start/end...
[16:53] <tekhneek> what does cron run as? I'm trying to execute PHP scripts and I need to make sure they have the proper permissions
[16:53] <chicognu> DasEi, yes
[16:53] <Choons> joeyjones: I had about 6 partitions ;)
[16:53] <joeyjones> tekhneek: they run as what you set it as
[16:53] <DasEi> chicognu: and which parti is that ?
[16:53] <Choons> joeyjones: otherwise it would be plain sailing
[16:53] <bonjoyee> i.e whenever i start an app in /usr/local/bin this LD_LIBRARY_PATH shud be used...
[16:54] <joeyjones> tekhneek: each user has a seperate crontab
[16:54] <chicognu> DasEi, the boot partition is /dev/ds5
[16:54] <CheBuzz_Home> What commandline utility can I use to see what services are set to start on boot?
[16:54] <DasEi> chicognu: /dev/sda5
[16:54] <chicognu> ys sda5
[16:54] <tekhneek> joeyjones: as what I set it as? I just want to make sure my scripts run as root, is there an easy way to do taht?
[16:54] <joeyjones> Choons: well, you might as well try to guess your main partitions and re-build.  it sounce like it's a hopeless battle uphill at this point
[16:54] <DasEi> chicognu: which distro ?
[16:55] <jona__> ola
[16:55] <chicognu> DasEi, ubuntu lts 10.4
[16:55] <joeyjones> tekhneek: each user has a seperate crontab, so if you added it as root it will run as root
[16:55] <DasEi> chicognu: gedit /etc/fstab
[16:55] <DasEi> chicognu: sorry
[16:55] <commodore> fuck you.
[16:55] <DasEi> chicognu: gedit /etc/apt/sources.list
[16:55] <Jemt> How can I find the actual name of a GUI application, if I want to start it from a command line ?
[16:55] <KM0201> lol
[16:55] <chicognu> DasEi,  ok
[16:56] <joeyjones> Jemt: google or guess it for starters
[16:56] <DasEi> chicognu: enable partner repos (delete the # in front of that 2 lines)
[16:56] <joeyjones> Choons: i really hope you didn't mount the drive as rw...
[16:56] <Jemt> joeyjones: That could take some time when I need names for more than 100 applications :)
[16:56] <DasEi> chicognu: save sources, close gedit
[16:56] <bonjoyee> Jemt: check the application name in the launcher..
[16:57] <DasEi> chicognu: apt-get update
[16:57] <Jemt> bonjoyee: Thanks, but this is an applet in the panel. But perhaps I can access some properties of sort
[16:57] <CheBuzz_Home> Anybody willing to help?  What commandline utility can I use to see what services are set to start on boot?
[16:57] <chicognu> DasEi, there is no comment repository in source list
[16:57] <error_203> verne:  ?
[16:57] <Choons> joeyjones: Not to my knowledge; I disabled swap in the live system I'm on now. Running testdisk
[16:57] <DasEi> chicognu: leave it then, we will see if we get what we need
[16:57] <DasEi> chicognu: apt-get update
[16:57] <zroysch1> CheBuzz_Home: is there something wrong with System/Preferences/Startup Apps
[16:58] <joeyjones> Choons: make sure it won't mount as rw, oryou're totally hooped
[16:58] <Choons> joeyjones: To make things worse: I'm miles from a stable internet connection; connecting through my phone
[16:58] <chicognu> DasEi, ok
[16:58] <joeyjones> damn
[16:58] <zroysch1> i just installed ubuntu 10.10 on my desktop and my laptop. i transferred the .purple config files for pidgin from the desktop to the laptop through the cat5 LAN. Is this an acceptable transfer rate? it seems incredibly slow. http://i.imgur.com/I19gt.png
[16:58] <DasEi> chicognu: might be some stuff, say yes to install
[16:58] <bonjoyee> Jemt: what applet is it?
[16:58] <Choons> joeyjones: Ahh seem to be getting somewhere with testdisk
[16:59] <Jemt> bonjoyee: Broadcast Accounts in Indicator
[16:59] <CheBuzz_Home> zroysch1: Yep, I don't have GNOME installed on this box, or any other desktop environment for that matter.
[16:59] <chicognu> DasEi, software list updated
[16:59] <DasEi> apt-get install lvm2 cryptsetup
[16:59] <DasEi> chicognu: ^
[16:59] <joeyjones> Choons: if you have a spare hdd you may want to use a tool like gddrescue to image the drive
[16:59] <chicognu> DasEi, no encrypted volume
[16:59] <geekbri> CheBuzz_Home: you could install rcconf
[17:00] <chicognu> DasEi, no encrypted volume ... just a saparated partition for /boot
[17:00] <DasEi> chicognu: pardon ? you said so ten minutes ago
[17:00] <geekbri> CheBuzz_Home: you can just sudo apt-get install rcconf
[17:00] <Roasted_> Here's a fun problem. Ubuntu 10.04. Intel wireless. Works GREAT! One day I boot up, no wireless. The fix? I have to boot up with my wireless disabled and then activate it after I'm logged back in. lol?? How can I fix this?
[17:00] <DasEi> chicognu: k..
[17:00] <geekbri> CheBuzz_Home: its an Ncurses based configuration tool  You coul dalso use sysv-rc-conf
[17:00] <bonjoyee>  Jemt: one way is to keep gnome-system-properties window open..and then launch it!!
[17:00] <Jemt> bonjoyee: I figured it out. 'xprop' can provide me the information I need
[17:00] <CheBuzz_Home> geekbri: I saw that.  Is there not a way to see with update-rc.d ?
[17:00] <DasEi> chicognu: mkdir /mnt/boot
[17:00] <Jemt> bonjoyee: It was already running. But thank you for your suggestion :)
[17:00] <Choons> joeyjones: I'm a long way from any of my spares. I've temporarily moved to South Africa so most of my gear is still in Scotland. Add to that the fact that I'm away from home in SA...
[17:00] <Choons> joeyjones: Not liking these odds at all
[17:01] <DasEi> chicognu: mount /dev/sda5 /mnt/boot
[17:01] <DasEi> chicognu: mount /dev/sda7 /mnt
[17:01] <joeyjones> Choons: is the data mission-critical?
[17:01] <geekbri> CheBuzz_Home: if there is i dont know it off the top of my head, i generally install sysv-rc-conf :)
[17:01] <DasEi> chicognu: mount --bind /dev  /mount/dev
[17:01] <Choons> joeyjones: Absolutely.
[17:01] <joeyjones> do you have any backups?
[17:01] <rethus1> 2010-12-16 17:53:01: (network.c.345) can't bind to port: :: 80 Address already in use
[17:02] <DasEi> chicognu: mount --bind /proc  /mnt/proc
[17:02] <Choons> joeyjones: If I lose this stuff I can consider my life over effectively. I know that sounds like hyperbole, but it really isn't.
[17:02] <pzr11hdik56> I need swf-player. how to get?
[17:02] <DasEi> chicognu: mount --bind /sys  /mnt/sys
[17:02] <rethus1> but apache is not running
[17:02] <rethus1> lsof -i :80 result in: http://pastebin.com/DDiBS4JV
[17:02] <DasEi> chicognu: mount --bind /usr  /mnt/usr
[17:02] <joeyjones> Choons: if you have access to a full disk backup you could reference the partition sizes/positions to recover
[17:02] <geekbri> CheBuzz_Home: if you read the manpage for update-rc.d you'll see it says it wasn't really meant for people it was meant for package maintainers and scripts, i generally always install sysv-rc-conf
[17:02] <CheBuzz_Home> geekbri: Thanks.
[17:02] <rethus1> what the hell is this barbadine.canonical.com address?
[17:02] <DasEi> chicognu: umount  /dev
[17:02] <DasEi> chicognu: mount --bind /dev  /mnt/dev
[17:02] <chairabanta> hi I have a nas and documents on it and I would like to index it via tracker but I don't know how do I add a samba share on tracker?
[17:03] <DasEi> chicognu: chroot /mnt
 chicognu: mount --bind /dev  /mount/dev u mean mnt/dev
[17:03] <Pici> rethus1: Do you use UbuntuOne?
[17:03] <Roasted_> Wow. I just installed 10.10 on a netbook with broadcom wireless, and it works OOTB?!?!?! I never thought I'd see the day where broadcom didnt (royally) suck...
[17:03] <rethus1> normaly not, but i have upgrade my xubuntu to 10.04 before some minutes.
[17:03] <DasEi> chicognu: corrected already, yes /mnt/dev
[17:03] <Choons> joeyjones: Again, unfortunately not. testdisk has spewed out the DellUtility partition, so I'm hoping it will find the rest
[17:03] <rethus1> maybe is presetting
[17:03] <Pici> rethus1: Likely.
[17:03] <Choons> joeyjones: If memory serves, the second partition is a 300Gb one, so it will take a will to appear I think
[17:04] <rethus1> how can i check fot this
[17:04] <sl1v68> hi
[17:04] <joeyjones> Choons: i suggest you do a backup if it recovers
[17:04] <KM0201> Roasted: depends on the broadcom, but most of them work w/ little fuss
[17:04] <joeyjones> :p
[17:04] <haploid> does hdparm -t benchmark reads only?  if so how would I benchmark writes?
[17:04] <DasEi> chicognu: chrooted in ?
[17:04] <joeyjones> oh, and virtualization is key for mission-critical servers
[17:04] <sl1v68> my flash disk seems as a 2,1 mb what would I do
[17:04] <DasEi> haploid: man hdparm
[17:04] <Roasted_> KM0201, broadcom with my latitude e5500 was a joke. It was so bad I bought an intel wifi card. ALL problems gone. This netbook is also a latitude, but its a netbook whereas my laptop is a regular laptop... but Im surprised it worked without any issue. Broadcom has a lengthy history of being a brat.
[17:05] <chicognu> DasEi, ok everything mounted .. now chroot /mnt ?
[17:05] <DasEi> yes
[17:05] <joeyjones> Choons: with virtualization you can keep backups of full installs and in the case of a hardware failure be back up as soon as the hardware is ready to go
[17:05] <KM0201> Roasted_: yeah, i know.. but they've actually been pretty solid since around 9.10
[17:05] <chicognu> DasEi, chrooted
[17:05] <lamik> ubuntu-pl
[17:05] <rethus1>  Pici:you have a idea how to deaktivate or check if it is activated?
[17:05] <Roasted_> disagreed. Im on 10.04, and they sucked. that was across 3 different laptops, all different broadcom cards.
[17:05] <lamik> join #ubuntu-pl
[17:05] <DasEi> chicognu: grub-install --recheck /dev/sda
[17:05] <Roasted_> But with 10.10 I might have to start giving them some credit...
[17:06] <KM0201> Roasted_: well, it depends on the broadcom card.. but most of them, w/ fwcutter, they worked w/ little fuss.
[17:06] <DasEi> chicognu: should comlain somehow
[17:06] <DasEi> p*
[17:06] <joeyjones> Choons: a very popular website i frequent is fully virtualized and is prone to atleast 1 hdd failure every 6 months, very high hdd write count i'd imagine
[17:06] <KM0201> Roasted_: i've set them up many tiems
[17:06] <haploid> DasEi: yeah reading the manpage - there appears to be nothing here about timing writes.
[17:06] <bonjoyee> how can i set a LD_LIBRARY_PATH variable only for apps under /usr/local/bin...?
[17:06] <Roasted_> same here. that's why I'm agreeing to disagree. :)
[17:06] <chicognu> DasEi, can i update-grub before ?
[17:07] <DasEi> chicognu: we will have to install
[17:07] <chicognu> DasEi, man tks it work
[17:07] <Choons> joeyjones: Yeah that's a good idea. But at the moment, I'm just going to work on retrieving this partition map
[17:07] <DasEi> chicognu: output from the recheck ?
[17:07] <joeyjones> Choons: there's not better time for upgrades than after a major failure/repair
[17:08] <Choons> joeyjones: True that.
[17:08] <DasEi> haploid: no nerv for details atm, it does
[17:08] <Pici> rethus1: No, I don't sorry.  I don't use ubuntu-one myself.
[17:08] <joeyjones> Choons: and you can get your management onboard by citing a near meltdown that could have be prevented in the future :p
[17:08] <chicognu> DasEi, Installation finished. No error reported.
[17:09] <DasEi> chicognu: niceeee...
[17:09] <abrakadabra`> hello! how to install old version php (5.2.6), using apt-get on ubuntu 10?
[17:09] <DasEi> chicognu: ctrl+d     . leave chroot
[17:09] <Choons> joeyjones: Heh, that's true. But I'm sure they would just bitchslap me ;)
[17:09] <DasEi> chicognu: umount -a
[17:09] <joeyjones> Choons: that's going to happen no matter what :p
[17:09] <sacarlson> abrakadabra`: I'm not sure it works but you can pin a version in synaptic or apt-get
[17:09] <chicognu> DasEi, think you so much ... the first time I try chroot I just mount the /dev/sda7 and  /proc ... but now works fine
[17:10] <DasEi> chicognu: reboot, check if win is in grub
[17:10] <chicognu> DasEi, brb
[17:10] <DasEi> chicognu: else come back, quickly
[17:10] <rethus1> ok, ubuntu one is not installed
[17:10] <rethus1> Pici:
[17:10] <rethus1> so must be another programm
[17:10] <abrakadabra`> sacarlson, how?
[17:11] <rethus1> /usr/lib/gvfs/gvfsd-http --spawner :1.9 /org/gtk/gvfs/exec_spaw/0
[17:11] <sl1v68> hi.My kington flash disk seen as a 2,1 mb but orginall 2 gb what would I do
[17:11] <rethus1> say ps aux |grep gvfsd
[17:12] <sacarlson> abrakadabra`: see if this is close https://help.ubuntu.com/community/PinningHowto
[17:12] <haploid> perhaps this is more of a postgres question, but is it normal for all I/O write operations on an ubuntu box to hang while running pg_restore?  Is there any way of nice-ing i/o priority as you can with cpu scheduling priority?
[17:12] <DasEi> haploid: still alive ?
[17:12] <Antonis> Hello folks. I have recently installed ubuntu 10.10 and added some hdds to fstab to automount them when I boot ubuntu. I now have a problem with nautilus showing each hdd twice one mounted and one unmounted that does nothing but being there.. is there a solution to this? I have added every entry by its UUID and not label or path
[17:12] <DasEi> haploid: sudo apt-get install gnome-disk-utility
[17:13] <DasEi> haploid: you find it under system > admin..
[17:13] <haploid> DasEi: thanks
[17:13] <DasEi> haploid: hassling egg here, sry
[17:13] <haploid> oh wait, I'm not running X, this is a server.
[17:13] <DasEi> haploid: hehe
[17:13] <haploid> I'll figure it out
[17:14] <c0nsense> hey
[17:14] <joeyjones> Choons: anyway, i'm going to be leaving soon but pm me to let me know how it works out or if i could be of any help.
[17:14] <c0nsense> what the command to use unity?
[17:14] <Choons> joeyjones: will do mate. Thanks
[17:15] <Se7en> C00re, logout and pick Unity from the list
[17:15] <Se7en> c0nsense, even
[17:15] <c0nsense> ?
[17:16] <i0nic> is there anyway to force cron to run?
[17:16] <sacarlson> i0nic: force the app that cron was suposed to run?
[17:17] <Abhish> I'm looking to build a brand-new machine entirely from scratch. I plan to use Linux ONLY. I am researching Motherboards, and it looks like alot of them use proprietary technologies. I am looking for a MB that will work 100% with Linux. Better yet, one that is designed and optimized for Linux.
[17:17] <chicognu> I forgot the nick the guy is try to help me out
[17:17] <stealthc> ugh this sucks
[17:17] <i0nic> sacarlson: just because a script runs manually does not mean cron runs it properly
[17:17] <KM0201> Abhish: finding one that is optimized, is unlikely... I've always had very good luck w/ Asus and MSI... but if you buy brand new, hot off the shelf stuff, there is a possibility some things won't work... no matter what.
[17:17] <nirazio> There were some occasions when I needed to know the time I installed or uninstalled something from the Ubuntu Software Centre so that I can diagnose some problem. It is great that the time is shown under 'history' there, even up to the second. However the am/pm is not shown and the time is not given in the 24-hour clock format. Is there a way to configure it to show the am/pm or 24-hour clock?
[17:18] <chicognu> KM0201, who is the other guy who is help me out
[17:18] <chicognu> KM0201, can u check it for me please
[17:18] <sacarlson> i0nic: I just setup a job to run in 2 min to verify it will run in cron
[17:18] <KM0201> chicognu: DasEi
[17:18] <geekbri> i0nic: why not create a new cron that runs more frequently...
[17:18] <chicognu> DasEi, I back
[17:18] <chicognu> KM0201, thank u
[17:18] <i0nic> geekbri: cause its painful for script testing
[17:18] <DasEi> chicognu: which result ?
[17:18] <KM0201> chicognu: did it work?
[17:18] <chicognu> DasEi, I back ... problem, the only entry is Windows XP
[17:19] <KM0201> lol
[17:19] <geekbri> i0nic: unfortunately i think its your only option :-\
[17:19] <stealthc> scripts are easy....
[17:19] <i0nic> .=(
[17:19] <chicognu> KM0201, Is it works, as DasEi said I chroot wrong
[17:19] <KM0201> ya
[17:19] <i0nic> maybe your scripts are easy.
[17:19] <KM0201> chicognu: that was a lot of steps to do that... i done it last night in about 5.. so.. i dunno
[17:19] <Abhish> KM0201 I am looking into Gigabyte... but I fear that some of their bells and whistles won't work under Linux... the documentation isn't clear enough for me to make the determination... though they apparently had the firstt MB to suppor LinuxBIOS aka coreboot.
[17:19] <sacarlson> i0nic: there is a simple gui to setup cron jobs if it's too hard for you with gnome-schedule
[17:20] <i0nic> sacarlson: strom, right?
[17:20] <DasEi> chicognu:same appraoch again, grub-install /dev/sda was missing, if win is gone, goto install and rub os-prober afterwards..
[17:20] <KM0201> !hardware | Abhish you can try looking here.. but like i said, if it's bleeding edge stuff... it's gonna be tough.
[17:20] <DasEi> rub=run
[17:20] <DasEi> chicognu:
[17:20] <Dave_L> I have a question about using the script ecryptfs-migrate-home
[17:20] <Dave_L> on ubuntu 10.04
[17:21] <EpicFialGuy> hi #ubuntu, I have a problem with GRUB
[17:21] <sacarlson> i0nic: the complexity of the script make no difference to when it is ran,  I have ran gui scripts in cron that have caused me problems
[17:21] <chicognu> DasEi, what folders from my runing live cd shoud a mount in chroot ? proc and what more ?
[17:21] <krunal> you know what would be nice? If you can rotate the ubuntu desktop cube by holding down the middle mouse button and scrolling
[17:21] <DasEi> chicognu: short reminder : sda5= boot, 7= root mount --bind /dev /proc/ /sys
[17:21] <KM0201> EpicFialGuy: lol, whats wrong?
[17:22] <chicognu> DasEi, ok let me try now. thak u so much again
[17:22] <EpicFialGuy> I installed Debian 5.0.7 and then GRUB, when rebooting I'm stuck at 2 lines:
[17:22] <EpicFialGuy> Loading GRUB stage1.5
[17:22] <DasEi> chicognu: k, one more time..
[17:22] <EpicFialGuy> Loading GRUB, please wait...
[17:22] <DasEi> chicognu: sudo -s
[17:22] <chicognu> DasEi, by my self ?P
[17:22] <KM0201> EpicFialGuy: ask in debian or grub.. i believe debian 5 is stil using grub 1...
[17:22] <DasEi> chicognu: mkdir /mnt/boot
[17:22] <chicognu> DasEi, by my self :P
[17:22] <Choons> Anyone got any suggestions for recovering a partition table? Running Ubuntu on a live CD. Gpart turns up nothing, testdisk is still running. Any alternative ideas?
[17:22] <DasEi> chicognu: mount /dev/sda5  /mnt/boot
[17:22] <Sleeping_Fox> can any1 recommend a book to get started to help programming the linux kernel ?
[17:22] <EpicFialGuy> any way to employ GRUB2 while using Ubuntu live?
[17:22] <DasEi> chicognu: mount /dev/sda7  /mnt
[17:23] <KM0201> Sleeping_Fox: i'd learn to use the OS effectively first.
[17:23] <DasEi> chicognu: mount --bind /dev  /mnt/dev
[17:23] <DasEi> chicognu: mount --bind /proc  /mnt/proc
[17:23] <DasEi> chicognu: mount --bind /sys  /mnt/sys
[17:23] <DasEi> chicognu: chroot /mnt
[17:23] <sacarlson> EpicFialGuy: I think the new live cd use grub 2
[17:23] <DasEi> chicognu: grub-install /dev/sda
[17:23] <KM0201> EpicFialGuy: i don't think so.. you'd need an older ubuntu live cd( pre-9.10)
[17:24] <root_> h1 all
[17:24] <root_> plz help me for download skype ;
[17:24] <root_> )
[17:24] <DasEi> chicognu: crtl+ d , umount -a , reboot
[17:24] <chicognu> DasEi, how I add the others entry with grub ?
[17:24] <KM0201> root_: just go to skype.com and download it?
[17:24] <root_> i try
[17:24] <chicognu> DasEi, there is only Windows XP entry
[17:24] <root_> no work ..
[17:24] <DasEi> chicognu: just go I already told you above
[17:24] <Dave_L> choons, this might help: http://www.terabyteunlimited.com/kb/article.php?id=288
[17:24] <Sleeping_Fox> i am learning bash and the advanced bash guide is great , but all i wanna get my hands in the kernel , at least some hacking at first and all i know is a lil c++:
[17:24] <root_> i try with shell konsole .
[17:24] <KM0201> root_: second, you really shouldn't be running your chat client as root, thats' borderline stupid
[17:24] <sacarlson> KM0201: so now live cd boot of ubuntu 10.10 uses grub legacy?
[17:25] <KM0201> sacarlson: i don't believe so.. 10.10 uses grub2 as well.
[17:25] <krunal> how can i set my cube to rotate with mouse wheel?
[17:25] <KWhat_Work> Where would I got to find out if ubuntu includes a particular package like the mbstring php extension.
[17:25] <DasEi> sacarlson: no, grub-pc, so grub2
[17:25] <Pici> KWhat_Work: http://packages.ubuntu.com
[17:25] <sacarlson> KM0201: DasEi: ok
[17:25] <EpicFialGuy> but there is GRUB in Ubuntu Soft Center
[17:25] <EpicFialGuy> that won't work?
[17:26] <Choons> Dave_L: Would be great, but it's for Windows
[17:26] <Dave_L> no, it should work with linux too
[17:26] <KM0201> EpicFialGuy: w/ a pre-9.10 cd.. yes, but even then, he's trying to restore a debian system, which will probably be a little different
[17:26] <Dave_L> i thik
[17:26] <chicognu> DasEi, root@ubuntu:/# grub-install /dev/sda Installation finished. No error reported.
[17:26] <EpicFialGuy> why do I need a pre 9.10  cd anyways?
[17:26] <kangarooooo> hello. i want to make using wifi make connection from ubuntu to windows to send files. without internet connection.
[17:27] <DasEi> chicognu: lets try..
[17:27] <chicognu> DasEi, reboot ?
[17:27] <Dave_L> hmm, i thought they had a linux version. Maybe I'm wrong.
[17:27] <DasEi> chicognu:still in chroot ?
[17:27] <chicognu> yes
[17:27] <chicognu> umount
[17:27] <DasEi> chicognu:apt-get install os-prober
[17:27] <KM0201> EpicFialGuy: not saying you definitely do.. just saying debian(to my knowledge) uses grub 1, last ubuntu ver. that used that, was 9.04
[17:27] <DasEi> chicognu:I'm not sure if that can be found
[17:27] <EpicFialGuy> okay, but I just want to use GRUB2 with Debian
[17:28] <EpicFialGuy> because GRUB1 as I said, is disfunctional
[17:28] <sresu_> How can I convert .sis file to .jar file?
[17:28] <DasEi> EpicFialGuy: can do that, but least karmic cd
[17:28] <KM0201> EpicFialGuy: and i'm not sure how to do that from a live CD.. i thought i was pretty clear on that
[17:29] <EpicFialGuy> k, brb, trying my luck
[17:29] <chicognu> DasEi, WARNING: kernel & initrd not found in the root directory (/vmlinuz & /initrd.img)WARNING: Do NOT reboot or LILO may fail to boot if your kernel+initrd is large.
[17:29] <KM0201> lol

[17:33] <Eber> Are there any packages that organize windows the way windows 7 does?!?
[17:33] <Pacorab> ok unetbootin, i'll search for it thx

[17:35] <AbhiJit_> ok
[17:35] <Free_Speech> ?
[17:35] <DasEi> Pacorab: stay with unetbootin from win, easiest
[17:35] <masdi> how to check ralink version?
[17:35] <Pacorab> mm ok
[17:36] <KM0201> unetbootin always fails for me...
[17:36] <KM0201> always.
[17:36] <sacarlson> Pacorab: I have heard good things about unetbootin too
[17:36] <Free_Speech> how to find packages in ubuntu i don't need?
[17:36] <DasEi> Free_Speech: the hard way ?
[17:37] <Free_Speech> hmm.. i have a Netbook with ubuntu but only 4GB mainspace... i want it as small as possible
[17:37] <jo_> I can't get gmd2 to run. I have tried to add the resp. and everything.
[17:37] <DasEi> Free_Speech: sudo dpkg -l > pak.txt, open with editor, ...
[17:37] <Free_Speech> okay thx.. :)
[17:38] <DasEi> Free_Speech: gnome-games, browse your apps menu, use synaptics, check bum
[17:38] <DasEi> !bum
[17:38] <ActionParsnip> Free_Speech: run: dpkg -l | less    and review
[17:38] <ActionParsnip> Free_Speech: remove openoffice and install abiword if you only use write
[17:39] <masdi> my wifi : RaLink RT2860
[17:39] <ActionParsnip> Free_Speech: remove vino and vinagre if you never use them (VNC stuff)
[17:39] <Free_Speech> it's for my younger sis she just need it for Skype, Browsing and write something down for school...
[17:39] <DasEi> ActionParsnip: install lynx ;-)
[17:39] <ActionParsnip> DasEi: no flash in lynx ;)
[17:39] <sacarlson> masdi: the version that is running or what you have pluged in?  lspci or lsusb for the device, lsmod to see what drivers are loaded
[17:40] <ActionParsnip> Free_Speech: remove compiz and use openbox for a faster OS as well as less space used
[17:40] <Free_Speech> she likes the unity... could it be run in openbox too?
[17:40] <ActionParsnip> Free_Speech: if you use unity then it will NEED mutter
[17:41] <duffydack> Free_Speech, use another dock, like docky or dockbarx
[17:41] <New0> gogeta no i did not
[17:41] <ActionParsnip> Free_Speech: basically openoffice will get you 300Mb back
[17:41] <New0> gogeta and i don't know how
[17:41] <Free_Speech> nice.. :) thx for the help... i will give openbox a try and remove openoffice :)
[17:41] <New0> so how can i fix it?
[17:42] <DasEi> Free_Speech: also can remove whole ubuntu-desktop, just run gdm
[17:42] <ActionParsnip> Free_Speech: keep your kernels to just ONE kernel, if you have more than 1 kernel then remove the unnecessary ones to keep maximum space
[17:42] <masdi> iwconfig : RT2860 , lsmod : rt2860sta
[17:43] <Free_Speech> i know i always worked with one kernel on the netbook.. ;)
[17:43] <sacarlson> masdi: and what are we suposed to do with that info rt2860?
[17:43] <ActionParsnip> Free_Speech: if you set your browser cache to be stored in /tmp it will be stored in RAM and be lost on reboot but who cares, its web cache
[17:43] <duffydack> Free_Speech, either mount /var/cache/apt/ as tmpfs or add "apt-get clean" to /etc/rc.local
[17:43] <wrd> ActionParsnip: how much does a complete set (Kernel + modules) require (space)
[17:43] <DasEi> Free_Speech: get a cheap usb and put /home on it
[17:44] <ActionParsnip> wrd: each kernel takes up about 120Mb per kernel
[17:44] <masdi> my wifi adapter is ralink RT2860, do i need to install new driver? right now i cannot connect to security network "wpa"
[17:44] <New0> is there anyone can help me plz?

[17:46] <masdi> guide me please
[17:46] <KM0201> Choons: just curious, how long are you gonna work on this?
[17:46] <Free_Speech> anyone knows why Xorgs uses about 8-30% CPU on a quadcore Laptop?
[17:46] <Free_Speech> *xorg
[17:46] <DasEi> Choons: testdisk is your best bet..
[17:46] <sacarlson> masdi: I'm not sure it works for all but maybe https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/WPAHowTo
[17:46] <DasEi> Choons: unless deep forensics are your desire
[17:46] <Choons> KM0201: Until I get my stuff back.
[17:46] <OerH> Choons if testdisk does nog find immediatly, i have verry little hope :(
[17:46] <Choons> DasEi: runnint testdisk atm. Fingers crossed
[17:46] <KM0201> Choons: are you just not accepting that it's gone?....
[17:47] <Sbioko> Hello
[17:47] <Free_Speech> hi
[17:47] <woutervddn> question: I'm trying to burn an iso to a cdrw; I just cleared the iso with brasero, and now when I'm burning the iso it keeps saying there is an scsi error.
[17:47] <chicognu> DasEi, update-grub should automatic record the new grub to mbr, right ?
[17:47] <Choons> KM0201: Why are you being so negative? If you have nothing constructive to say, then don't say anything
[17:47] <ActionParsnip> Free_Speech: do you have 3d accelleration?
[17:47] <KM0201> Choons: not being negative, i'm just curious what you hope to accomplish if you've deleted the partition table and formatted the drive?
[17:47] <Sbioko> Does Ubuntu apps have ability to handle
[17:47] <ActionParsnip> woutervddn: try gnomebaker
[17:47] <Free_Speech> @my laptop yes and Nvidia driver 256.x.x
[17:47] <ActionParsnip> woutervddn: make sure you MD5 test the ISO first
[17:48] <Sbioko> to handle drag and drops on system tray icon?
[17:48] <ActionParsnip> Free_Speech: cool
[17:48] <KM0201> woutervddn: i agree w/ ActionParsnip ... brasero sucks.
[17:48] <Choons> KM0201: No I've just deleted partition table; the drive isn't formatted
[17:48] <masdi> ok, tq ..need to read help files
[17:48] <DasEi> Choons: autopsy if you're a unbeliever..
[17:48] <KM0201> ok..
[17:48] <chicognu> DasEi, I thin i forgot to execut grub-install /dev/sda
[17:48] <DasEi> chicognu: yes
[17:48] <OerH> K3b works on gnome too, best burning appl i know
[17:48] <chicognu> DasEi, so it don`t work
[17:49] <Choons> DasEi: OK I'll have a go
[17:49] <DasEi> chicognu: your turn this time
[17:49] <chicognu> DasEi, see, update-grub find all imagens and os, but don`t put it on menu
[17:49] <ActionParsnip> Free_Speech: is it at a particular point in the OS running or is it random?
[17:49] <New0> http://img8.imageshack.us/img8/1944/screenshotrt.png when i  map my Win 7 drive it's come two times!! how can i fix it?? plz
[17:50] <DasEi> chicognu: without grub-install, mbr is not re-written, least sda5 was right as images were found
[17:50] <ActionParsnip> New0: its a partition, not a drive. You can't mount drives
[17:50] <share> How can I find the ipv6 address of a website
[17:50] <goltoof_> quick ? has someone here successfully setup acrobat pro x on their xp virtualbox ?
[17:50] <luxurymode> whats the command to pull up sources.list?

[17:50] <Free_Speech> the Xorg CPu.. is always higher than 8% i think it's because of the effects... but sometimes it goes up to 30%
[17:50] <DasEi> !grub | chicognu

[17:51] <DasEi> !brain > Free_Speech
[17:51] <chicognu> DasEi, not all comands , the comands i remember, I just don`t remember all the things I need to mount with the bind option

[17:52] <ActionParsnip> Free_Speech: just to test for now
[17:52] <ActionParsnip> woutervddn: good
[17:52] <luxurymode> whats the command to pull up sources.list?
[17:52] <DasEi> chicognu: first link of grub-facto tells all, it's /proc /dev/  sys/ (/usr for advanced)
[17:52] <B45h_V|> cd
[17:52] <luxurymode> nm got it
[17:52] <B45h_V|> actionparsnip with alternate cd
[17:52] <woutervddn> actionparsnip: that means my problem isn't solved yet :p
[17:52] <sacarlson> goltoof_: no but there are cool pdf editors in ubuntu if that's what you hope to do,  otherwise the viewers in ubuntu work perfect also
[17:52] <ActionParsnip> B45h_V|: did you MD5 test the ISO you burned? Did you burn it as slowly as you could?
[17:53] <Free_Speech> metacity -- replace  chrashes Compic i think :/
[17:53] <ActionParsnip> woutervddn: try using gnomebaker, its awesome. Burn the CD slowly
[17:53] <Free_Speech> no effects.
[17:53] <B45h_V|> actionpasnip well... in fact installation goes good up until the installation of GRUB
[17:53] <DasEi> chicognu: an have a dir /mnt/boot for sda5
[17:53] <woutervddn> ok thx
[17:53] <B45h_V|> it's stuck on 50% :(
[17:53] <ActionParsnip> Free_Speech: no, it REMOVES compiz and makes metacity your WM
[17:53] <Free_Speech> ohh... ^^
[17:53] <ActionParsnip> Free_Speech: is the CPU usage any less?
[17:53] <Free_Speech> Xorg 17% .. nope...
[17:54] <ActionParsnip> Free_Speech: ok you can switch compiz back in if you want
[17:54] <chicognu> DasEi, ok, mount /dev/sda5 /mnt/boot mount /dev/sda7 /mnt mount --bind /proc /mnt/proc mount /sys /mnt/sys mount /dev /mnt/dev chroot /mnt I forgot anything ?

[17:59] <ActionParsnip> Free_Speech: latest BIOS? You could try the xorg-edgers PPA but its VERY experimental and may cause issues
[17:59] <DasEi> chicognu: apt-get install os-prober && osprober
[17:59] <sacarlson> ActionParsnip: vvvccc: ya that's even better
[18:00] <New0> wow i have a serious lag
[18:00] <chicognu> DasEi, root@ubuntu:/# os-prober /dev/sda1:Microsoft Windows XP Professional:Windows:chain
[18:00] <bonjoyee> guys can u recommend an alternate desktop env...which works well with gnome apps?
[18:00] <chicognu> DasEi,  I forgot something this time
[18:01] <New0> ActinoParship yes a partition. but how can i fix it?
[18:01] <chicognu> DasEi, the list of comands I peform
[18:01] <DasEi> chicognu: that was ?
[18:01] <Free_Speech> wont change to ppa of Xorg.. had many problems with Nvidia drivers... :/ i mean it's not a real problem i think...
[18:01] <Free_Speech> *the higher cpu usage..
[18:02] <DasEi> chicognu: it's all in the link also I can give you a log of this con...
[18:02] <Guest56287> I am adding a user as useradd name -m -g group -p password and it does not let me what am I doing wrong??
[18:03] <sacarlson> Guest56287: forgot sudo ?
[18:03] <Guest56287> sacarlson, yes I am as root
[18:04] <Scott___> Can someone quickly explain how I can run fetchmail. I've just reinstalled Ubuntu but now I'm getting an error that fetchmail can't connect to localhost:smtp.
[18:04] <sacarlson> Guest56287: and error is?
[18:04] <Scott___> I'm pretty sure I didn't have an smpt last time
[18:04] <chicognu> DasEi, mkdir /mnt/boot , mount /dev/sda5 /mnt/boot/ mount /dev/sda7 /mnt/ , mount --bind /dev/ /mnt/dev/ , mount --bind /proc/ /mnt/proc/ , mount --bind /sys/ /mnt/sys/ , chroot /mnt/
[18:05] <chicognu> DasEi, those are the exact comands I run
[18:05] <Guest56287> sacarlson, that the group does not exit... I am not creating the group at the same time as the user__
[18:05] <chicognu> DasEi, and os-prober don`t find this time
[18:05] <DasEi> chicognu: /mnt/dev...
[18:06] <sacarlson> Guest56287: ya I guess you need to create the group first then
[18:06] <Guest56287> with addgroup right? sacarlson +
[18:06] <DasEi> chicognu: mount --bind /dev  /mnt/dev  .. and so on
[18:06] <luxurymode> Hey all. I'm trying to install MySQL and directions I'm following say to "Change to the directory that has the RPM." How do I do that?
[18:07] <sacarlson> gruest56 yup maybe if needed check man addgroup
[18:07] <DasEi> chicognu: ctrl-+d, umount -a, same procedure as ..
[18:07] <chicognu> DasEi, nothing change
[18:07] <chicognu> root@ubuntu:/# os-prober  /dev/sda1:Microsoft Windows XP Professional:Windows:chain
[18:07] <crickj> luxurymode: you can install mysql from the package manager
[18:07] <joeyjones> Scott___: fetchmail is supposed to grab mail and forward it, so it's trying to find an smtp so it can forward the mail
[18:08] <chicognu> DasEi, is diferent mount --bind /dev/ and mount --bind /dev ?
[18:08] <chicognu> DasEi, please send me the logs from our talk
[18:08] <joeyjones> Scott___: so you either have it configured wrong or you need an smtp client
[18:08] <Scott___> joeyjones, ok, before i reinstalled i was still able to fetchmail although i did always see a connection refused message. in any case, is there a particular smtp server that I should install?
[18:08] <andre_pl> I'm building a new machine after christmas and I am considering ATI over nvidia for the first time ever, msotly because I've heard good things about their linux support lately. anyone have any advice either wya?
[18:08] <Scott___> I've just copied the .fetchmailrc from before...
[18:08] <joeyjones> for an smtp client you likely want either sendmail or exim4
[18:08] <chicognu> Im dead now with dasei
[18:08] <chicognu> :(
[18:09] <luxurymode> crickj, how do i do it? kinda new. i see a bunch of sql things, not sure which to select..
[18:09] <joeyjones> i don't like working with either much myself, so you can ask around for hlep with that if need be
[18:09] <crickj> luxurymode: do you want the server or client?
[18:09] <luxurymode> crickj, MySQL database core client binaries?
[18:09] <joeyjones> but iirc exim4 was drastically simpler to work with
[18:09] <patrick> hi
[18:10] <luxurymode> crickj, i think server. i wat to set up sql db locally so i can mess around with it.
[18:10] <Guest56944> hi all
[18:10] <Scott___> ok, i'll give exim4 a go
[18:10] <crickj> luxurymode: open a terminal, type "sudo apt-get install mysql-server"
[18:11] <luxurymode> sick
[18:11] <testuser> hi all
[18:11] <luxurymode> i love linux
[18:11] <luxurymode> crickj, thank you!
[18:11] <Guest56944> yup :)
[18:11]  * joeyjones bext $100 that luxurymode will be hating linux within a week.
[18:11] <testuser> i have a problem in ubuntu10.04
[18:11] <joeyjones> *bets
[18:11] <Guest56944> what for a problem???
[18:12] <luxurymode> uh joeyjones, why?
[18:12] <KM0201> luxurymode: cuz everyone loves it at first.. then the first bit of trouble they run into, they are reinstalling XP
[18:12] <joeyjones> luxurymode: perople tend to go througn stages when just starting using linux
[18:12] <joeyjones> KM0201: exactly
[18:12] <testuser> my ubuntu window looks like win98 after system crash
[18:12] <testuser> http://myweb.fcu.edu.tw/~chschang/Screenshot.png
[18:12] <luxurymode> i went through 8 hours of hell setting it initially bc of config issues, raided drive, etc
[18:12] <luxurymode> so i was pretty committed
[18:12] <testuser> it's sceenshot~
[18:13] <memocharette> héhé
[18:13] <memocharette> anyone here using a t61 with Ubuntu?
[18:13] <wildc4rd> evenin all
[18:13] <KM0201> joeyjones: thats why i always recommend a dual boot.. that way they have a fall back when they have a problem they can't solve and they can stay productive.
[18:13] <IdleOne> testuser: System > Preferences > Appearance and select the theme you want
[18:13] <luxurymode> i have dual boot
[18:13] <Chiku|dc> salut
[18:13] <Chiku|dc> oups
[18:13] <memocharette> bonjour! :)
[18:13] <KM0201> joeyjones: i dual booted for 5mo before i finally went to Ubuntu 6.06 as my only OS.
[18:13] <Chiku|dc> h
[18:14] <KM0201> luxurymode: oh ok.. well, you might be all right... but we'll seee, i still completely agree w/ what joeyjones said
[18:14] <joeyjones> KM0201: personally i use multi-platform apps as much as possible so i can swap over in a catastrophic failure
[18:14] <joeyjones> and kept dual-boot
[18:14] <testuser> IdleOne: no..,it take no affect
[18:14] <KM0201> ya
[18:14] <joeyjones> although my vista install is extremely idle :p
[18:15] <Guest56944> Linux is awesome :=)
[18:15] <testuser> and it both in kde and gnome
[18:15] <Guest56287> how can I add a user to an exiting group???
[18:15] <IdleOne> testuser: try logging out and back in after changing the theme
[18:15] <simon34> what is the use of public FTP service? is it free? how can i use it?
[18:15] <luxurymode> KM0201, i hear. sort of a pointless discussion though, eh? ;)
[18:15] <KM0201> luxurymode: i dunno.. we'll see in about 2-3 weeks i guess
[18:16] <joeyjones> and i use win7 on my desktop now because i play games sometimes and don't want to have to reboot
[18:16] <waffel> Guest56944: well ofcourse! ;)
[18:16] <simon34> what is the use of public FTP service? is it free? how can i use it? which one is better SSH, Windows share, Public FTP server?
[18:16] <janhaj> hello, Is any difference between installing Ubuntu 10.10 Desktop and after that doing update, and Ubuntu 10.10 net install (except in netins I must have internet connection)?
[18:16] <joeyjones> but my lappy lixes on ubuntu and all my servers run nix
[18:17] <testuser> IdleOne: i have try it~but still no affect..
[18:17] <ActionParsnip> simon34: you can share files publicly with a public ftp service, however ftp is not very secure
[18:17] <Guest56287> does any one know how can I add a new user to an existing group_
[18:17] <jocrawfo> hey guys what is a good rss reader for gnome?  I tried liferea and thunderbird but liferea seems slow and clunky while Thunderbird is nice but if I put feed under sub folders I cannot get all items under sub-folders to show up, for instance web development -> php.  If I click on web development i would want to see all items under any sub-folders
[18:17] <ActionParsnip> simon34: sounds like you just clicked on connect to server in nautilus
[18:18] <simon34> what is the use of public FTP service? is it free? how can i use it? which one is better SSH, Windows share, Public FTP server?
[18:18] <goltoof_> jocrawfo:  if you're into browser based stuff i go with google reader
[18:18] <ActionParsnip> simon34: i just answered you
[18:18] <goltoof_> jocrawfo: not savvy on rss apps tho
[18:18] <jocrawfo> yea even google reader would not do what i wanted when it comes to sub-folders etc.
[18:19] <goltoof_> jocrawfo:  yea it's a little limited
[18:19] <ActionParsnip> simon34: instead of pasting the same question, if you need clarification ASK for it rather than being a troll and pasting the same nonesense
[18:19] <ActionParsnip> simon34: you can share files publicly with a public ftp service, however ftp is not very secure
[18:19] <Guest83160> olá boa tarde algum brasileiro por ae?
[18:19] <simon34> is it free?
[18:19] <Guest83160> simon
[18:20] <ActionParsnip> jocrawfo: http://www.ubuntugeek.com/list-of-rss-readers-available-in-ubuntu.html
[18:20] <ActionParsnip> simon34: is what free?
[18:20] <goltoof_> !br
[18:20] <Guest83160> you know how a to make a local share for windows?
[18:20] <simon34> need to sign my account?
[18:20] <Guest83160> no...its free
[18:20] <ActionParsnip> simon34: what account?
[18:21] <Guest83160> never
[18:21] <simon34> i am novice about it. what will be the server address?
[18:21] <Guest83160> i dont know
[18:21] <Guest83160> me too a novice here
[18:21] <Scott___> joeyjones, installing exim4 seemed to be a quick fix
[18:22] <SystemParadox> What happened to ftpfs/lufs in Ubuntu 10.10? I can't find it anywhere
[18:22] <joeyjones> Scott___: cool
[18:22] <simon34> hey Action,.......
[18:22] <ActionParsnip> simon34: if you dont know then you don't have a server, you use that to connect to a KNOWN server. So if you have a windows share or have configured an FTP server, then you can connect to it that way
[18:22] <Guest83160> i instaled the version 10.10
[18:22] <ActionParsnip> simon34: have some damn patience
[18:22] <giorgos> i have  GPG error u know any one what  i do
[18:22] <luxurymode> Someone told me to Close the mysql session by typing quit at the prompt. Exit from superuser and come back to your account. (Type exit). This isn't working. Thoughts?
[18:23] <SystemParadox> giorgos, try giving us the error and maybe we can help
[18:23] <testuser> IdleOne: should i check the log file?
[18:23] <ActionParsnip> giorgos: what is the GPG bad sig you get, it will be 16 characters long
[18:23] <IdleOne> testuser: I'm not sure what else it could be
[18:23] <giorgos> ok 1min plz
[18:24] <simon34> man u seems little bit crazy. ok. thanks
[18:24] <giorgos> W:GPG error: http://archive.canonical.com maverick Release: The following signatures were invalid: BADSIG 40976EAF437D05B5 Ubuntu Archive Automatic Signing Key <ftpmaster@ubuntu.com>, W:Failed to fetch http://ppa.launchpad.net/weather-indicator/weather-indicator-experimental/ubuntu/dists/maverick/main/source/Sources.gz  404  Not Found
[18:24] <testuser> IdleOne: OK.. thank you :)
[18:24] <joeyjones> KM0201: luxurymode has already had his first issue :p
[18:24] <jussi> !gpgerr | giorgos
[18:24] <ActionParsnip> simon34: no, yo need to give me more than 39 seconds to reply
[18:24] <KM0201> joeyjones: lol... what was the over/under again?
[18:24] <Guest83160> i needed one help to make an LAN with windows
[18:24] <Guest83160> you can help me?
[18:24] <giorgos> i make but the some
[18:25] <joeyjones> KM0201: <luxurymode> Someone told me to Close the mysql session by typing quit at the prompt. Exit from superuser and come back to your account. (Type exit). This isn't working. Thoughts?
[18:25] <ActionParsnip> simon34: my client gives timestamps so I know how long you waited
[18:25] <jussi> wait, sorry, giorgos, that probably wont help
[18:25] <KM0201> l0l
[18:25] <ActionParsnip> Guest83160: do you mean a shared folder for data?
[18:25] <joeyjones> KM0201: i had $100 on him hating kinux
[18:25] <KM0201> lol
[18:25] <Guest83160> yes
[18:25] <Guest83160> and share my printer
[18:25] <ActionParsnip> Guest83160: thats no "making a LAN"
[18:25] <joeyjones> KM0201: i think 1 week was a safe bet :p
[18:26] <ActionParsnip> Guest83160: try being specific with your questions
[18:26] <luxurymode> ok, honestly you guys are losers
[18:26] <Guest83160> i try configurat samba, but no sucess
[18:26] <joeyjones> luxurymode: protip: ctrl+c to exit apps and ctrl+d to exit user
[18:26] <ActionParsnip> luxurymode: then leave the channel, nobody is forcing you to stay
[18:26] <luxurymode> this isnt any more of an issue with linux than figuring it out in windows is a "first windows issue"
[18:27] <luxurymode> ActionParsnip, no im very appreciative of advice and very courteous, but thats just outta line
[18:27] <luxurymode> i might be overreacting
[18:27] <HomingHamster> hello
[18:27] <ActionParsnip> Guest83160: do you want to share ubuntu resources to windows, or access windows shares from Ubuntu?
[18:27] <luxurymode> if so, i apologize
[18:27] <vipul> what's wrong with this commandhttp://paste.ubuntu.com/544542/
[18:27] <joeyjones> luxurymode: for a *nix chan this is very sober
[18:27] <Guest83160> i need access the fold in the linux
[18:27] <joeyjones> not even flaming
[18:27] <ActionParsnip> luxurymode: and "luxurymode: ok, honestly you guys are losers"  is not "outta line"??
[18:27] <vipul> http://paste.ubuntu.com/544542/ <--- What's wrong with this command
[18:27] <joeyjones> no personal attacks yet
[18:27] <ActionParsnip> Guest83160: then run:  sudo apt-get install samba
[18:28] <HomingHamster> i use ubuntu netbook remix and i was wondering if you lot have any clever ideas about what to do if my windows are bigger than the screen
[18:28] <luxurymode> ActionParsnip, you're right maybe it was, but when joey pasted my comment, kinda made me feel stupid
[18:28] <luxurymode> i guess im just being sensitive
[18:28] <luxurymode> sorry guys
[18:28] <ActionParsnip> its cool
[18:28] <xevi> hi
[18:28] <Guest83160> the samba is already instaled
[18:28] <Typh> HomingHamster: use alt+click to move them around?
[18:28] <HomingHamster> and i can't resize them because i can't get to the bottom
[18:28] <Guest83160> but i cant configurate
[18:28] <area51pilot> :P
[18:28] <joeyjones> luxurymode: i was loling at with KM0201 at how fast you ran into something
[18:28] <Typh> HomingHamster: or alt middle click to resize them
[18:28] <xevi> hi
[18:28] <ActionParsnip> Guest83160: then right click folders in nautilus and you can share them, or you can use /etc/samba/smb.conf
[18:28] <luxurymode> i keep getting access denied when i try connecting
[18:29] <luxurymode> i granted access and created a pw
[18:29] <HomingHamster> Typh, thanks, have no middle button, it being a netbook
[18:29] <luxurymode> but now not working, hmm
[18:29] <ActionParsnip> luxurymode: are you connecting to a windows PC from Ubuntu to access folder shares?
[18:29] <Typh> HomingHamster: there's still the first thing I said, and my netbook middle clicks when I press both buttons
[18:30] <HomingHamster> Typh, another thing i never knew
[18:30] <Typh> It's likely netbook specific :)
[18:30] <luxurymode> ActionParsnip, no dont think so, just followed this tutorial that said i needed to " grants my account (me@localhost) all the permissions on  database and sets my password"
[18:30] <luxurymode> ActionParsnip, i guess i can just forget about that part, huh?
[18:30] <vipul> i need a help
[18:30] <luxurymode> ActionParsnip, and just do mysql -u root -p
[18:30] <Guest83160> i installed the samba but, when try to access the ubuntu with the windows ask the password
[18:30] <HomingHamster> Typh, thanks, that half solves my problem, the only thing is that the window is not refusing to resize, it comes up with a menu with the options to move workspace etc...
[18:31] <Guest83160> i write but say incorrect
[18:31] <wieshka> How it is possible to make fake USB device what basicly receives data and stores in file ?
[18:31] <wieshka> with no real physical device
[18:31] <HomingHamster> Typh, thanks, that half solves my problem, the only thing is that the window is not refusing to resize, it comes up with a menu with the options to move workspace etc...
[18:31] <area51pilot> wieshka: why?
[18:32] <Sam_eYe_am> How can I start Rhythmbox as root each time?
[18:32] <HomingHamster> ok, g2g sorry thanks!
[18:32] <Typh> HomingHamster: alt left click lets you drag the window around. alt-right click should give a few options, including "resize", are you seeing something different?
[18:32] <wieshka> i have software, whats sends data via USB to my POS printer. My printer is Ethernet connected, so i need to capture this data and transfer over TCP to real destitination
[18:32] <vipul> can any one plz help me http://paste.ubuntu.com/544542/
[18:32] <luxurymode> ActionParsnip, when i command to SHOW DATABASES, i just see "-> "
[18:32] <ActionParsnip> Sam_eYe_am: starting rythmnbox as root is not necessary
[18:33] <ActionParsnip> luxurymode: what database technology are you using?
[18:33] <simon34> Hi smart #ActionParsnip......how can i make a internet access point in symbian v5 mobile eg nokia 5230 where data bearer will be data call  to use ubuntu's net connection in mobile through bletooth?
[18:33] <ActionParsnip> simon34: no idea, ive not used it. Tr asking the channel like normal
[18:33] <luxurymode> ActionParsnip, my bad i got. bad syntax. its SHOW DATABASES; im using mysql
[18:33] <Sam_eYe_am> ActionParsnip, well... I have been fighting all night to have drives automount and finally they do. Now I can't delete songs in Rhythmbox.
[18:34] <simon34> Its should be normal for u
[18:35] <wieshka> area51pilot: i have software, whats sends data via USB to my POS printer. My printer is Ethernet connected, so i need to capture this data and transfer over TCP to real destitination
[18:35] <ActionParsnip> luxurymode: have you tried asking in #mysql
[18:35] <ActionParsnip> Sam_eYe_am: you mount partitions, not drives
[18:36] <ActionParsnip> Sam_eYe_am: check your mount options in fstab
[18:37] <frxstrem> how can I unmount a sshfs mount point after the SSH server it was connected to has been shut down?
[18:37] <Sam_eYe_am> ActionParsnip, okay. jeesh. I am so tired of Linux I'm ready to go back to 7 just for a break!
[18:37] <luxurymode> ActionParsnip, nope i havent. will do. thank you!
[18:38] <OrangePeel> Hello
[18:38] <Sam_eYe_am> ActionParsnip, I must have learned something in 2 yrs I managed to open fstab!
[18:38] <New0> http://img8.imageshack.us/img8/1944/screenshotrt.png when i  map my Win 7 drive it's come two times!! how can i fix it?? plz
[18:39] <New0> *partition
[18:39] <OrangePeel> Would anyone here recommend Nero Linux over Brasilero
[18:39] <Sam_eYe_am> ActionParsnip, okay what am I looking at or for?
[18:39] <ActionParsnip> Sam_eYe_am: you'll need: gksudo gedit /etc/fstab    to get write access
[18:39] <OrangePeel> Would anyone here recommend Nero Linux over Brasero *
[18:39] <ActionParsnip> !fstab
[18:39] <KM0201> OrangePeel: no.. but I'd recommend gnomebaker over both of them.
[18:39] <Sam_eYe_am> OrangePeel, Baras
[18:39] <ZykoticK9> OrangePeel, k3b or gnomebaker over Brasero (personal opinion of course)
[18:40] <New0> /10.0.0.55/f /media/net1 smbfs user,uid=1000,iocharset=utf8,codepage=unicode,unicode  0  0     this is the line on /etc/fstab
[18:40] <Sam_eYe_am> ActionParsnip, okay. Now what?
[18:40] <OrangePeel> K3 gave me problems more so than Brasero
[18:40] <ActionParsnip> !fstab | Sam_eYe_am
[18:40] <OrangePeel> Maybe becuse slower download speeds
[18:40] <KM0201> OrangePeel: your the 3-4th person that i've saw say that in 2 days... i like k3b, but i don't use it, cuz i don't like installing all the KDE libs... so maybe there's a problem w/ the current version.
[18:41] <Scarecrow> Can someone help me? I've just suddenly started getting "Error: API mismatch: the NVIDIA kernel module has version 260.19.06, but this NVIDIA driver component has version 260.19.29." when I try to run anything via wine, open nautilus (pretty much anything graphical). Has the update caused it?
[18:41] <KM0201> OrangePeel: i'd install gnomebaker.. it's clean, and easy to use.
[18:41] <Sam_eYe_am> ActionParsnip, I don't understand !fstab :-(
[18:41] <OrangePeel> Yeah KM0201
[18:41] <OrangePeel> installing gnomebaker
[18:42] <trijntje> !fstab | Sam_eYe_am
[18:42] <ActionParsnip> Sam_eYe_am: read the factiod ubottu ave
[18:42] <ActionParsnip> *gave
[18:43] <Scarecrow> Repeating it isn't really helping
[18:44] <OrangePeel> Thanks KM0201 will tell you how it works
[18:44] <KM0201> OrangePeel: ok.. good luck.
[18:44] <vvvccc> I saw in some videos you can write the first letters of a file and it will auto-complete, how do i do that?
[18:44] <ZykoticK9> Scarecrow, i'd try reinstalling nvidia-current
[18:44] <vvvccc> in terminal
[18:45] <ZykoticK9> !tab | vvvccc
[18:45] <vvvccc> not irc
[18:45] <vvvccc> oh
[18:45] <vvvccc> ok
[18:46] <vvvccc> for some reason it doesnt work i use xubuntu
[18:46] <vipul> $ sudo gem install pg <--- what's wrong with this command
[18:46] <vipul> ?
[18:46] <Scarecrow> ZykoticK9, how would I reinstall nvidia-current?
[18:46] <vipul> sudo gem ? why not sudo apt-get install gem pg?
[18:46] <ZykoticK9> Scarecrow, "sudo apt-get install nvidia-current"
[18:46] <shane4ubuntu> ok, how do I upgrade a version via command line?
[18:47] <Scarecrow> "nvidia-current is already the newest version."
[18:47] <vipul> Hellow
[18:47] <vipul> any one here?
[18:47] <shane4ubuntu> I mean from 9.04 to 9.10?
[18:47] <vipul> who can help me
[18:47] <ZykoticK9> Scarecrow, use remove then install

[18:47] <Connor1> What
[18:47] <trijntje> vipul, what is your problem?
[18:47] <om26er> shane4ubuntu, how about 9.04 to 10.10 ?
[18:47] <aarcane> oh, that's sweet.  happy kwanza, GNAA peoples, whoever you are.
[18:48] <shane4ubuntu> om26er: hmmm, I'm pretty sure you have to step upgrade
[18:48] <vvvccc> how do I start a program and keep using terminal? if i use '&' i'm always getting the program debug/output info
[18:48] <shane4ubuntu> om26er: not leap. :)
[18:48] <vipul> trijntje,  http://paste.ubuntu.com/544557/
[18:48] <vipul> check this
[18:48] <trijntje> vvvccc, gedit >/dev/null&, this will discard all output
[18:49] <om26er> shane4ubuntu, i have never done a ubuntu upgrade but i think you can leap ;)
[18:49] <trijntje> vipul, what are you trying to do?
[18:49] <shane4ubuntu> om26er: pretty sure it is highly un-advisable, I have done lots of upgrades, and failed upgrades on the step level.
[18:50] <vipul> just making a database support
[18:50] <shane4ubuntu> got it sudo do-release-upgrade
[18:50] <nirazio> When I run update from the terminal, I get the following list where many repositories are shown with "Ign". Does it mean the update manager will always ignore updates from those repositories?
[18:51] <chicognu> how can i force a umount ??
[18:51] <ActionParsnip> nirazio: try changing your source server in software centre
[18:51] <vipul> trijntje,  just trying to install Postgres as it is the recommended database
[18:52] <trijntje> vipul, gem is not used in ubuntu to install software
[18:52] <trijntje> vipul, why not go to applications -> ubuntu software centre?
[18:52] <vipul> trijntje,  can i pm you ?
[18:52] <ActionParsnip> chicognu: sudo umount device -f
[18:52] <nirazio> ActionParsnip: But what does that mean???
[18:52] <trijntje> vipul, ok
[18:52] <vipul> thanks
[18:53] <chicognu> ActionParsnip, dont work
[18:53] <ActionParsnip> nirazio: you upgrade from a server out in the great wide internet. There is more than one server to upgrade from so if you try a different one it may work, the one you are using currently may be down for maintenance
[18:53] <ZykoticK9> chicognu, i believe it's "sudo umount -f device" but i could be wrong
[18:53] <ActionParsnip> chicognu: according to: man umount   -f is the force option
[18:54] <chicognu> ZykoticK9, also dont work
[18:54] <chicognu> ActionParsnip, maby, but it is not umounting
[18:54] <chicognu> maby something crash
[18:54] <nirazio> ActionParsnip: I am asking about Ign..See the result here http://paste.ubuntu.com/544545/
[18:55] <ActionParsnip> chicognu: not sure there champ, sorry. You are hitting the official server so all is ok
[18:55] <ActionParsnip> chicognu: can you give a pastebin of the output you get, rather than "its not working"
[18:56] <chicognu> ActionParsnip, device or resource is busy
[18:56] <ZykoticK9> chicognu, are you trying to umount from terminal?  are you in the mounted directory?
[18:56] <ActionParsnip> chicognu: is that the ONLY text you get output?
[18:57] <chicognu> ActionParsnip, http://pastebin.com/BVnxuU5V
[18:57] <chicognu> ZykoticK9, no
[18:57] <chicognu> ZykoticK9, I mean. yes, terminal emulator. no im not in the directory
[18:58] <ActionParsnip> chicognu: try:   lsof | grep mnt
[18:58] <ZykoticK9> chicognu, you are logged in as root.  sorry i'm not gonna assist - someone else will i'm sure.
[18:58] <ActionParsnip> ZykoticK9: could be: sudo -i  ;)
[18:58] <chicognu> ZykoticK9, lol
[18:59] <chicognu> ActionParsnip, sudo -s to be exact
[18:59] <ActionParsnip> chicognu: -s can be funny, but its fine
[19:00] <chicognu> ActionParsnip, http://pastebin.com/FyASbXyz here the output of lsof  | grep mnt
[19:00] <agentgasmask> Hi. Does anyone know if you can tell a program what "desktop" (aka. workspace) to open on?
[19:00] <ZykoticK9> chicognu, FYI before you did sudo -s what directory where you in?  could be the issue.
[19:00] <ActionParsnip> chicognu: ok try:  sudo lsof | grep mnt
[19:00] <ActionParsnip> chicognu: ZykoticK9 is right though
[19:01] <Scarecrow> ZykoticK9, still getting that nvidia api error after removing and installing it again. Now what?
[19:01] <chicognu> ActionParsnip, the same output
[19:01] <ZykoticK9> Scarecrow, and you have rebooted in between?
[19:01] <ActionParsnip> chicognu: if you run:  exit    what is the output of:  pwd
[19:02] <Scarecrow> ZykoticK9, I'll try that.
[19:02] <chicognu> ActionParsnip, detail im in live cd  and I mount sda7 with the intent to  chroot
[19:02] <ActionParsnip> chicognu: then logoff and it'll unmount as needed
[19:02] <chicognu> logof from where
[19:03] <chicognu> ActionParsnip, mkdir /mnt/boot && mount /dev/sda7 /mnt && mount --bind /dev /mnt/dev && mount --bind /sys /mnt/sys && mount --bind /proc /mnt/proc && mount --bind /usr /mnt/usr && chroot /mnt
[19:03] <chicognu> ActionParsnip, after that I exit and try to umount -a
[19:03] <chicognu> but /mnt don`t umount
[19:04] <SageX> hey
[19:04] <ActionParsnip> chicognu: if you mount to /mnt after making /mnt/boot then the /mnt/boot will not be seen
[19:04] <SageX> I wAs messing with compiz And I Accidently binded the lower cAse A need help
[19:04] <chicognu> ActionParsnip, you are sure that ?
[19:05] <testuser> hi all
[19:05] <jrib> SageX: undbind it?  You probably press backspace to undbind it
[19:05] <testuser> i have deal the issue i just post

[19:05] <vipul> i need a help
[19:05] <chicognu> ActionParsnip, is so, how shout I mount sda5 in /mnt/boot and sda7 in /mnt ? you maby dicovery what im doing wrong
[19:05] <ActionParsnip> chicognu: yes, when you mount, the mountpoint will show the content of the mounted device, only
[19:06] <chicognu> if so*
[19:06] <testuser> the root cause of the issue is ubuntu updating
[19:06] <testuser> but system memory too few~
[19:06] <agentgasmask> Any one know the irc channel for mdadm (software RAID)
[19:06] <testuser> so it crashed.
[19:06] <chicognu> ActionParsnip, sorry my miss typo some words, Im a little bit tired
[19:06] <vipul> http://paste.ubuntu.com/544557/ whats wrong with this command
[19:07] <testuser> after reboot, it became win98 like screen
[19:07] <h-dee> Hey guys...I need to know if there's any VHDL synthesis or burning tool available for Linux? Preferably FREE!

[19:08] <ActionParsnip> !burning | h-dee
[19:09] <h-dee> ubottu: No I don't need CD burning app. I need VHDL synthesis tool. Its a programming language.
[19:10] <SageX> hold down <Super>m
[19:10] <ActionParsnip> h-dee: "burning tool" said CD burner to me
[19:10] <chicognu> ActionParsnip, lol. google is my friend too, I previously see that page, and it don`t work, because I have a separated partition to /boot folder
[19:10] <h-dee> ActionParnship: I didn't got you. You mean there ain't any burning tool?
[19:10] <h-dee> I need VHDL tool

[19:11] <Turtlez> I have a question that you've probably heard before
[19:11] <Beelsebob> I've just put ubuntu onto a rather ancient laptop – an earlier version (9.04?) detected and used the WiFi on it fine, but this 10.10 doesn't seem to pick any networks up.  What's my best bet to go about diagnosing it?
[19:11] <ActionParsnip> ask away Turtlez
[19:11] <ActionParsnip> Beelsebob: jaunty isnt supported anymore
[19:11] <h-dee> Any idea guys regarding VHDL synthesis tool?
[19:11] <Turtlez> I'm wanting to switch from Win7 to a Unix based OS and I'm a bit iffy on Wine support for my stuff.
[19:11] <Beelsebob> ActionParsnip: I'm not asking for help with jaunty...
[19:11] <ActionParsnip> Beelsebob: run; sudo lshw -C network     and websearch for the product line
[19:12] <ActionParsnip> Turtlez: what apps do you need?
[19:12] <ActionParsnip> !appdb | Turtlez
[19:12] <Turtlez> Well, I have Finale 2010, that's the biggest issue... I'll probably just go Dual-Boot.
[19:13] <ActionParsnip> Beelsebob: if its USB based, also run: lsusb   one line will identify the device and you can websearch that to find guides too
[19:13] <Beelsebob> ActionParsnip: tis apparently an Intel Pro/Wireless 2200BG
[19:13] <jon-san> sorry if this is a noob question, but is there a difference between a terminal & a bash shell in ubuntu?
[19:13] <ActionParsnip> Turtlez: the 2009 version works perfectly
[19:14] <Turtlez> I bet, but I don't own 2009.
[19:14] <ActionParsnip> Beelsebob: then see about guides for it under Lucid
[19:14] <ZykoticK9> jon-san, terminal is the program, while bash is a shell.  they are different - but it's difficult to explain what that difference is...
[19:14] <cga> hi all. is there an x86_64 Ubuntu Netbook edition?
[19:14] <ActionParsnip> Beelsebob: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuStudio/Notation
[19:14] <jon-san> i always thought that termianl & shell were synonymous
[19:14] <ZykoticK9> jon-san, no not really
[19:15] <ActionParsnip> !info Denemo | Beelsebob
[19:15] <jon-san> but yesterday my boss said something akin to "open your bash" & that just confused the hell out of me
[19:15] <ActionParsnip> !info denemo | Beelsebob
[19:15] <ActionParsnip> !info lilypond
[19:15] <jon-san> can anyone refer me to any good info online? ive been using google, but i'm still confused
[19:15] <Beelsebob> ActionParsnip: what's that meant to be?
[19:15] <ZykoticK9> jon-san, typically on a linux system the terminal will be using bash
[19:15] <jon-san> any input would be much appreciated
[19:15] <vecchiascore__ia> hi all| Please, help me about an annoiyng problem with ubuntu
[19:15] <cga> jon-san, shell is a component of the operating system around the core , terminal is an emulator/connector of/to the shell
[19:15] <ActionParsnip> Beelsebob: http://linux.softpedia.com/screenshots/Denemo_1.png    its an open source equivelent
[19:16] <vecchiascore__ia> my pc stucks when I try installing 10.04.1 lts
[19:16] <Beelsebob> ActionParsnip: uhhhh?
[19:16] <Turtlez> Finale 2010 is rated garbage... :/
[19:16] <SageX> hey ubuntu I still hAvn't fixed my lower cAse "A" problem how do I fix it through the commAnd line
[19:16] <ActionParsnip> Beelsebob: sorry, mixed wires
[19:16] <rigved> vecchiascore__ia: do you get a blank screen?
[19:16] <ZykoticK9> Turtlez, either dual-boot or think about a VM
[19:16] <jon-san> Zykotick9, as I understand it, terminal is just a program that lets you move through the file system, edit & execut files, etc.
[19:16] <ActionParsnip> Turtlez: http://linux.softpedia.com/screenshots/Denemo_1.png   try denemo
[19:16] <vecchiascore__ia> rigved: no. only mouse moving
[19:16] <jon-san> where does the bash come into play?
[19:17] <ZykoticK9> jon-san, cga's answer isn't bad.  terminal is where you use bash.
[19:17] <detrix42> I am trying to find a way to convert docx to odt  I have tried to get odf-converter, but the links to the page to get it are no longer valid.
[19:17] <ActionParsnip> Beelsebob: websearch for guides for intel 2200BG
[19:17] <detrix42> is there another way to do this?
[19:17] <Beelsebob> ahahahahahahaha… STUPID LAPTOP
[19:17] <Stava> How can I share the internet connection I have through a GSM device with my home network (router/switch)?
[19:17] <Beelsebob> it has a wifi kill switch on the front of it… just where you might bash it
[19:17]  * cga off for food.
[19:17] <Beelsebob> dmesg revealed it had been bashed
[19:17] <Beelsebob> >.<
[19:17] <rigved> vecchiascore__ia: in any case it's probably a graphics problem. not compatible with ubuntu
[19:17] <Turtlez> Zykotick9: I'm probably just going to dual-boot. ActionParsnip: I enjoy the support of Finale 2010 (Just got a christmas "gift" of a bunch of scores)
[19:17] <ActionParsnip> Beelsebob: nice, all is good then :)
[19:17] <ZykoticK9> detrix42, i ran into problems with docx earlier this month - had to get the origional creator to re-save as a doc, before open/libre-office would do it.
[19:18] <cysioland> How to play .cda files in Ubuntu?
[19:18] <detrix42> ZykoticK9: ok.
[19:18] <jon-san> hmm, well at least I know that the "bash" and "terminal" are in fact two separate components
[19:18] <jon-san> thanks guys
[19:18] <jon-san> i'll keep researching it
[19:18] <ActionParsnip> Turtlez: you could use a virtualized system but it wont run as well, you can run it in seamless mode too ;)
[19:18] <itsmeagain> here I am
[19:19] <itsmeagain> we're talking about pc freezed during install
[19:19] <ActionParsnip> cysioland: http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-496436.html
[19:19] <New0> how can i connect my windows share from ubuntu without prompt for an User&Pass?
[19:19] <rigved> vecchiascore__ia: you could try the alternate cd. you may be able to successfully install, but the problem may persist after the install
[19:19] <ActionParsnip> itsmeagain: did you test your ram>
[19:19] <itsmeagain> ActionParsnip: RAM OK (1024MB), cd ok
[19:20] <Turtlez> ActionParsnip: Main reason I'm thinking about using a bit of Unix is because I recently BSOD'd and used a PuppyLinux Live-CD to save some stuff, and I really like the idea of a minimal OS.
[19:20] <ActionParsnip> itsmeagain: did you test it using the CD?
[19:20] <Braber01> Hi my aunt just reloaded Windows on to my laptop, but it's giving us the 'grub_rescue>' prompt how can that be fixed?
[19:20] <FredFlinstone> hi i need a samba skilled person to assist me in fixing shares, anyone around ? the shares are set to force a user and that is not happening anyone gets on with a password
[19:20] <itsmeagain> ActionParsnip: sure and also md5 before burning it
[19:20] <ActionParsnip> Turtlez: you can install ubuntu minimal, then install LXDE and get a minimalist OS
[19:20] <New0> ActionParsnip i got disconnected!!! so do u know how?
[19:20] <FredFlinstone> oops WITHOUT
[19:20] <rigved> Braber01: use live cd
[19:20] <ikonia> FredFlinstone: make sure your not using the guest account
[19:21] <FredFlinstone> how can i disable the guest?
[19:21] <rigved> !fixmbr | Braber01
[19:21] <ActionParsnip> New0: if you are connecting to a WIndows share and you have Windows Live Messenger it causes issues
[19:21] <FredFlinstone> in users there is only me
[19:21] <Braber01> rigved: I'm wanting to install windows on my laptop thogh .
[19:21] <itsmeagain> the pc is really old
[19:22] <ZykoticK9> Braber01, reinstalling windows will overright grub
[19:22] <New0> ActionParsnip well i have it installed! so how can i fix it?
[19:22] <ActionParsnip> New0: http://thelinuxexperiment.com/linux/accessing-windows-7-shares-from-ubuntu-is-a-pain/
[19:22] <itsmeagain> but winxp and mandriva work fine hours and hours turned on
[19:22] <rigved> Braber01: just follow the instruction given in the restore grub2 link, it'll give you a dual boot with windows and ubuntu
[19:22] <FredFlinstone> i porbably have it messed up by using wrong documentation, too bad good docs are not written yet huh
[19:22] <New0> ActionParsnip tnx
[19:22] <ActionParsnip> New0: using a username / password is a good idea, you can have your Ubuntu OS store the password so you only need to store it once
[19:22] <cysioland> How to play .cda files? I have only files, not whole CD.
[19:23] <Turtlez> ActionParsnip: Interesting... I'll have to check it out. Thanks for your help.
[19:23] <FredFlinstone> perhaps if i remove samba and ntfs stuff and start over?
[19:23] <itsmeagain> and the pc freezes completely, only mouse cursor is moving
[19:23] <Braber01> Zykotic: my aunt chose the restore option to wipe out everything however she's still geting the grub_rescue prompt is there some speical instructions i can give her?
[19:23] <nirazio> Sometime ago I just tested to see if I could login to desktop from root, and I succeeded. I clicked on Others on the userlist and entered root and its password and logged in. Now I'd like to know how we can disable root login altogether. I didn't see any option as such in the Login Screen.
[19:23] <ZykoticK9> cysioland, have you tried mplayer?  i have no expericnce with cda files.
[19:23] <New0> ActionParsnip well i try to Enter U&P but didn't work
[19:23] <Braber01> rigved: I removed my Linux partions so I can't load up ubuntu at all.
[19:23] <ActionParsnip> New0: read the link dude, some guy had the same issue
[19:24] <ZykoticK9> Braber01, if you want to restore the windows boot loader, you should be asking in ##windows
[19:24] <New0> ActionParsnip ok tnx :D
[19:24] <rigved> Braber01: do you want ubuntu on that machine?
[19:25] <itsmeagain> no one can help with my problem then?
[19:25] <cysioland> ZykoticK9, don't works
[19:25] <ZykoticK9> cysioland, sorry i have no ideas then.  best of luck.
[19:26] <itsmeagain> If I choose automatic partitioning it stucks @ 46% of install
[19:26] <rigved> Braber01: ok. didn't see the earlier reply. so you need to ask in ##windows to restore only to windows
[19:26] <itsmeagain> but sometimes it satucks after choosing keyboard language

[19:29] <anygivenname> it says unrecognized service
[19:29] <Anon269> i will
[19:30] <aeon-ltd> anygivenname: check in a process manager if its running
[19:30] <ZykoticK9> FredFlinstone, file shareing with SSH or NFS work great for me between *nix boxes.   Oh, you're complaining about Windows interoperability... not really a linux/ubuntu issue in my opinion.

[19:32] <cysioland> How to convert .cda files to .ogg?
[19:32] <aeon-ltd> cga: yes, but why? most netbooks are 32bit
[19:32] <ZykoticK9> cga, does your netbook have more then 4GB or RAM?
[19:32] <anygivenname> it is smbd....not smb & not samba
[19:32] <chicognu> folks
[19:32] <chicognu> tks a lot
[19:32] <cga> aeon-ltd, most , not mine
[19:32] <netbeast> hello all
[19:32] <chicognu> tks a lot I restore my grub
[19:33] <cga> ZykoticK9, nope. 2GB
[19:33] <ActionParsnip> cysioland: mencoder may be able to help
[19:33] <ZykoticK9> cga, then 64bit is a waste
[19:33] <netbeast> i need some help installing a creative pc cam 300 it seems not to work on ubuntu 10.0
[19:33] <aeon-ltd> cga: again though, unity is the same anyway so its not like it matters, its just takes a little longer
[19:33] <netbeast> 10.10
[19:33] <FredFlinstone> ZykoticK9, understood, but still , my win boxes are the same as they were when 10.04 liked them all, i think of that as an ubuntu issue ONLY
[19:33] <cga> ZykoticK9, why?
[19:34] <ZykoticK9> cga, 64bit will be slower with only 2gb of memory vs 32 bit
[19:34] <cga> ZykoticK9, hu. i think i'll install 32 and see.
[19:34] <ZykoticK9> cga, and i doubt you are doing complex math or encoding with your netbook
[19:35] <rigved> itsmeagain: use alternate cd
[19:35] <dfrank> hi all. I using kubuntu. How can i close X and get text console? I trying to Ctrl+Alt+F2,  or ..+F3, etc, but i got just black window, no command prompt. Ctrl+Alt+Backspace won't work too.
[19:35] <cga> ZykoticK9, true. it's xmas present for my mum. her first computer ever....
[19:35] <rigved> !alternate | itsmeagain
[19:35] <ZykoticK9> dfrank, do you have proprietary nvidia/ati and did you try to alter the resolution of plymouth.
[19:36] <nirazio> Sometime ago I just tested to see if I could login to desktop from root, and I succeeded. I clicked on Others on the userlist and entered root and its password and logged in. Now I'd like to know how we can disable root login altogether. I didn't see any option as such in the Login Screen.
[19:36] <chicognu> What is kernel module to suport more than 4 gb in 32 bits so compiled system ??
[19:36] <netbeast> does anyone know how to install a creative pc cam 300 on ubuntu 10.10
[19:36] <FredFlinstone> with public = no i get access denied, no chance to login, with yes eveyone gets in without a login
[19:36] <ZykoticK9> dfrank, the command "sudo service kdm stop" should stop X, but i'm guessing you'll just get a black screen
[19:37] <FredFlinstone> my fstab http://pastebin.com/rRQHYysp
[19:37] <ZykoticK9> chicognu, PAE is what you are looking for - don't think it is a module though
[19:37] <FredFlinstone> i mean smb conf
[19:37] <chicognu> tks ZykoticK9
[19:37] <aeon-ltd> netbeast: the pae kernel
[19:37] <dfrank> ZykoticK9: yes i am. How can i get command prompt?
[19:37] <FredFlinstone> fstab for the other direction dont wok either, used ubuntu site as a guide
[19:38] <ZykoticK9> dfrank, did you play with plymouth resolution?
[19:38] <dfrank> ZykoticK9: no
[19:38] <cysioland> ActionParsnip, these are audio files, and videostream is mandatory
[19:38] <FredFlinstone> so both ways i have problems
[19:38] <anygivenname> in terminal...how do I see all history ?
[19:38] <ZykoticK9> dfrank, sorry i don't know then... best of luck.
[19:38] <ZykoticK9> anygivenname, "history"
[19:38] <dfrank> ZykoticK9: i heard "plymouth" first time, btw..
[19:38] <ActionParsnip> angryuser: history   is the command
[19:38] <sandking_> hi
[19:38] <anygivenname> history does not show all.....it starts in the middle
[19:39] <ZykoticK9> anygivenname, "history | more"?
[19:39] <anygivenname> I need to see earlier lines
[19:39] <sandking_> i really need some help with my keyboard. i got apple aluminium one (wired) and by default i got special keys instead of fn keys

[19:39] <sandking_> how to switch it?
[19:39] <sandking_> i just wanted to play frets on fire and i can't
[19:40] <ActionParsnip> sandking_: you can use 1,2,3,4 and 5 instead :)

[19:40] <ActionParsnip> fretsonfire is badass
[19:40] <ZykoticK9> anygivenname, glad to help

[19:42] <slgma> are there any better alternatives to lm-sensors
[19:42] <netbeast> this is not helping
[19:42] <rigved> nerdy_kid: use rename
[19:42] <sandking_> ActionParsnip, well I used to play guitar more back in the days and it's far from guitar feeling, so i prefer it to be closer to the edhe
[19:42] <XLV> got a laptop with intel p965 mobile chipset... in ubuntu 10.10 i need to set acpi=off noapic and nolapic boot option for the kernel to load.. ofcourse then i got no battery status. anyone got any info on how to get the pos load with acpi enabled?
[19:42] <sandking_> edge
[19:42] <ActionParsnip> sandking_: fretsonfire is heavily controlled by hardware, some key combinations just wont work with some keyboards so you may need to use 2 key chords
[19:43] <nerdy_kid> rigved: that looks like what I need, only I don't know perl...
[19:43] <netbeast> can someone help me install spca5xx i get errors when i try to install it

[19:46] <robisinho> how do I enable inline SVG in 10.10's firefox (the one called only "web browser")
[19:47] <ntr0py> ZykoticK9, ActionParsnip: Thx but that i have done already, but there is no such implementation in tools.jar or rt.jar from suns jre/jdk...
[19:47] <nerdy_kid> rigved: its not working :(  I tried rename 's/\:$//' *.mp3  and a bunch of varations on the perl expression and only succeed in stripping all the file extensions.
[19:48] <ActionParsnip> robisinho: http://labs.silverorange.com/archive/2006/january/howtoinclude
[19:49] <Fryedfish> hi there
[19:49] <netbeast> doesnt work with camera
[19:49] <robisinho> ActionParsnip: my SVG sample file works on mozilla on my windows 7 machine, but not on ubuntu -- on ubuntu it wants to open it as a download, even if I specificalkly open it in a new tab
[19:49] <Fryedfish> I have a little problem when installing wubi.exe
[19:49] <dfrank> seem like there's no getty runnung on tty1,2,etc. How can i make it run?
[19:50] <robisinho> ActionParsnip: https://docs.google.com/leaf?id=0B9TOmYPGKkKNMDBlNzk1NzgtZWNiOS00ODlhLWE1OTgtZjM1ZmMzNmU5OTJk&hl=en this is it
[19:50] <robisinho> or, one of them
[19:50] <rigved> nerdy_kid: well the first expression is the one that you want. the second one (*.mp3) is the actual file which you are replacing.
[19:50] <dfrank> actually, there's strange: why getty isn't running?? Strange ubuntu.
[19:51] <rigved> nerdy_kid: i'm that good with RE. maybe someone else may be able to help
[19:51] <ActionParsnip> robisinho: i dont use firefox so I'm no use here dude
[19:51] <robisinho> ActionParsnip: ooh jesus, I was clicking the download link insteadof the open link -- I'km a dolt. thnk you!
[19:51] <Typh> my font rendering regularly gets all distorted and wacky. Changing the hinting fixes it, but is there any shortcut that might force everything to refresh?
[19:51] <nerdy_kid> rigved: ok thanks for your help :)
[19:52] <rigved> nerdy_kid: sor i meant that i'm not good with regular expressions
[19:52] <rigved> nerdy_kid: *sorry

[19:53] <Fryedfish> after the dual boot on ubuntu, there is no action after the ubuntu logo has dissapeared... howcomm?
[19:53] <Guest151> hello?
[19:53] <netbeast> does anyone know why camfrog wont display video in wine
[19:53] <Guest151> When i try to do the Live Boot from the cd it just sits at the window that says Ubuntu with the dots under it. Is this a common prob?
[19:53] <needhelp1> what should i format a hdd to so it will be compatable with mac osx
[19:54] <rigved> sparkey: just run the rsync program as normal and check what happens. it should resume automatically
[19:54] <pgpkeys> HFS+ same as google tells you
[19:54] <nirazio> what this command will do "sudo usermod -p '!' root"
[19:55] <Egonis> I'm trying to install UNR 10.10 on a Lenovo S10-3 Netbook, and it hands on 'Initialized DRM' in a kernel console
[19:55] <Egonis> 'hands' = 'hangs'
[19:55] <rigved> Guest151: it means that your hardware is not fully supported by the installer. try installing from the alternate cd
[19:56] <rigved> !alternate | Guest151
[19:56] <esteban22x> hi .. I have a question
[19:56] <esteban22x> who can help me ?
[19:56] <ActionParsnip> Guest151:www.ubuntugeek.com/how-to-fix-ubuntu-10-04-lts-lucid-blank-screen-at-startup.html
[19:56] <needhelp1> pgpkeys, is ext4 compatable with osx
[19:56] <ActionParsnip> esteban22x: ask away
[19:56] <sonorus> hi, how to change color of syntax highlighting in Geany ??
[19:56] <ActionParsnip> needhelp1: i'd ask in #apple
[19:56] <sonorus> it's possible ?

[19:57] <Guest151> n girls :)
[19:57] <esteban22x> I'm thinking to install the new ubuntu 10.10 but I need a broadcom driver for my wireless
[19:57] <nerdy_kid> esteban22x: what wireless card is it?
[19:57] <esteban22x> Broadcom
[19:58] <esteban22x> Ubuntu 10.10 can support it?
[19:58] <nerdy_kid> esteban22x: what model wireless card?
[19:58] <XLV> esteban22x, first you need to find the exact model.. broadcom means little
[19:58] <ActionParsnip> esteban22x: use a wired connection is by far the easiest way, there is a method using the live cd too but if you are using a laptop this is especially easy
[19:59] <gobbe> esteban22x: you can install broadcom-drivers with additional drivers-installer
[19:59] <nerdy_kid> esteban22x: e.g. I have a broadcom BCM4312 802.11b/g LP-PHY
[19:59] <ActionParsnip> XLV: most lappys use broadcom 43xx as they are cheap and abundant
[19:59] <netbeast> i like ubuntu 10.10 making it easy for the switch
[19:59] <esteban22x> but Ubuntu 10.10 support it
[19:59] <esteban22x> ?
[20:00] <gobbe> yes
[20:00] <gobbe> but you need to download drivers
[20:00] <ActionParsnip> esteban22x: if its a broadcom 43xx the driver will be offered once you get a network connection
[20:01] <Typh> my font rendering regularly gets all distorted and wacky. Changing the hinting fixes it, but is there any shortcut that might force everything to refresh?
[20:01] <Typh> I know my video drivers are probably crap, but unfortunately this card is no longer supported
[20:01] <esteban22x> ok .. tanks a lt
[20:01] <BlackBox> Hello
[20:01] <esteban22x> lot
[20:01] <BlackBox> I have a question if any one may help.
[20:01] <ActionParsnip> BlackBox: ask away
[20:02] <esteban22x> are there a chat IRC about Ubuntu in spanish
[20:02] <esteban22x> I can't speak english so good
[20:02] <esteban22x> :S
[20:02] <Myrtti> !es | esteban22x
[20:02] <BlackBox> Does any one have a link to a tutorial to upgrade Ubuntu 10.10  to Ubuntu Studio 10.10 i know you can use command line but not sure on what repositories to add or how to exactly add them
[20:03] <soerenbnoergaard> join #latex
[20:03] <ActionParsnip> BlackBox: its not an "upgrade", its just adding extra packages
[20:03] <esteban22x> but I'm gonna stay here for a moment :)
[20:03] <esteban22x> I like this channel
[20:03] <ActionParsnip> BlackBox: run: apt-cache search ubuntustudio     install those packages
[20:03] <BlackBox> Thank you
[20:03] <humble> what shall i install for sound drivers?
[20:03] <BlackBox> cheers
[20:04] <nirazio> Sometime ago I just tested to see if I could login to desktop from root, and I succeeded. I clicked on Others on the userlist and entered root and its password and logged in. Now I'd like to know how we can disable root login altogether. I didn't see any option as such in the Login Screen.
[20:05] <FredFlinstone> Anon269, you still around now that i am done with the telephone? somehow things changed all on their own - do i have to wait 5 minutes after restarting samba when tweaking?
[20:05] <FredFlinstone> or anyone?
[20:05] <B45h_V|> nirazio: just delete root-password
[20:06] <nirazio> B45h_V: How???
[20:06] <SocAt> any one know why redirecting an rtsp video stream with socat causes vlc to crash, but not with rtp?
[20:06] <ActionParsnip> nirazio: sudo usermod -p '!' root    will disable root account like it SHOULD be
[20:06] <B45h_V|> nirazio: sudo passwd -d root
[20:07] <Myrtti> nirazio: like ActionParsnip said
[20:07] <ActionParsnip> source: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo
[20:07] <ActionParsnip> simple stuff
[20:08] <CH|LLZ>   /exit
[20:08] <FredFlinstone> where does stuff go to mount and share an ntfs win box, i know fstab needs entries (tried a couple variations from webpages without luck) , is there other files to edit? must be
[20:10] <sandking> ActionParsnip, could you help me and tell where should i import frets on fire songs? :) (i already managed the tfn problem)
[20:10] <uma_> Hiiiiiii..........
[20:10] <lithpr> hi, how do i load changes in my .bash_aliases file w/o starting a new terminal?
[20:11] <nirazio> ActionParsnip: what this command will do?? sudo passwd -d root
[20:11] <BlackBox> ActionParsnip: Thank you . Got the list then used synaptic package manager. Cheers
[20:11] <sandking> ah, got it :]
[20:11] <resixian> trying to: mount -t cifs -o ro,username=foo,password=bar //10.1.1.16/ubuntu_alt ~/upgrade_src
[20:11] <ActionParsnip> nirazio: no idea, the command I gave disables the account
[20:12] <bullpup> does anyone know how to install 2.6.37 kernel with PAE in Ubuntu 10.10?
[20:12] <resixian> but i keep getting.. "mount: cannot mount block device //10.1.1.16/ubuntu read-only"
[20:12] <lithpr> while i'm waiting, let me mention that i love the way Ubuntu integrated Liferea into the messaging menu
[20:12] <lithpr> if you haven't seen it, it's great
[20:12] <resixian> this share mounts 'just fine' on my arch linux laptop
[20:12] <ActionParsnip> lithpr: run:   source ~/.bash_aliases  maybe
[20:13] <lithpr> ActionParsnip, thanks, that did it :)]
[20:14] <nirazio> ActionParsnip: why root account is disabled in ubuntu??
[20:14] <ActionParsnip> nirazio: security
[20:14] <lithpr> nirazio, 'sudo su' works
[20:14] <ZykoticK9> lithpr, DON'T USE THAT
[20:14] <sandking> how to use chmod to set rw of folder for me?
[20:15] <IdleOne> use sudo -i if you must
[20:15] <lithpr> nirazio, don't use that.  nevermind :)
[20:15] <ActionParsnip> sandking: depends who the owner is
[20:15] <sandking> ActionParsnip, i can't copy songs to frets on fire and i need to change permissions
[20:16] <nirazio> ActionParsnip: if that is for security reason..Why cant they delete the root account permanently??
[20:16] <ZykoticK9> sandking, "chmod 600 file" will set you to rw and nothing for everyone else
[20:16] <sandking> i tried to run nautilus as su but that didn't work
[20:16] <netbeast> linux has come a far way since i used redhat
[20:16] <sandking> ZykoticK9, ok, will try that
[20:16] <ZykoticK9> !gksu | sandking
[20:16] <sandking> good to know
[20:16] <needhelp1> can ubuntu read and write to HFS+
[20:17] <ActionParsnip> nirazio: because root owns the other files
[20:17] <FredFlinstone> where does stuff go to mount and share an ntfs win box, i know fstab needs entries (tried a couple variations from webpages without luck) , is there other files to edit? must be
[20:17] <ekspiulo> join #clutter
[20:17] <ActionParsnip> sandking: you don't use sudo with gui apps
[20:17] <nerdy_kid> how do I convert filenames to FAT compatible ones?  thanks!
[20:17] <jiffe> I'm trying to figure out why when I try to install emacs23-nox via apt-get, it wants to remove mysql
[20:18] <ActionParsnip> FredFlinstone: you can mount to ANY folder you want, except in /proc  so there is no set place
[20:18] <sandking> ActionParsnip, well, i did it several times and it worked :]
[20:18] <ActionParsnip> FredFlinstone: you could make a new folder in ~/Downloads called stuff and mount to ~/Downloads/stuff
[20:18] <sandking> ZykoticK9, chmod 600 didn't much helped :]
[20:18] <secretary_linux> Hi all. it seems since I last used ubuntu a couple years ago, its init.d arrangement has changed, what with upstart and all. can anyone point me to some documentation that outlines ubuntu's init process now and how to control which services load at boot?
[20:18] <FredFlinstone> ActionParsnip, ok ill go media, but exactly how do i do this with a command in a text file somewhere?
[20:19] <ActionParsnip> sandking: you will make your ~/.ICEauthority be owned by root and you wont be able to use sudo
[20:19] <Atriktison> hi all
[20:19] <ActionParsnip> sandking: if you want to avoid that you can use your OS PROPERLY and use gksudo with GUI apps, your choice
[20:19] <FredFlinstone> or in a gui, as a noob , i have no clue :)
[20:19] <Atriktison> I have an bug open office
[20:19] <Atriktison> when I select tools bibligophy
[20:19] <sandking> ActionParsnip, i wasn't aware of that before, so thanks for the tip - will do it in future then
[20:19] <Atriktison> it is creashes
[20:19] <ActionParsnip> !gksudo | sandking
[20:20] <ActionParsnip> sandking: in kde it's kdesu
[20:20] <FredFlinstone> ActionParsnip, i'd like them mounted/shared every boot
[20:20] <ActionParsnip> FredFlinstone: then use fstab
[20:20] <nerdy_kid> Atriktison: have you reported it?
[20:20] <FredFlinstone> ActionParsnip, i only need stuff there?
[20:20] <ActionParsnip> FredFlinstone: its an example, you can mount to any folder
[20:21] <FredFlinstone> ActionParsnip, i only need stuff in fstab for that?
[20:21] <elias79> hello
[20:21] <nirazio> ActionParsnip: What are the files that root owns??
[20:21] <nerdy_kid> Atriktison: if not, then just hit "report a bug" over on the right here:  https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu
[20:22] <FredFlinstone> ActionParsnip, i had tried fstab and failed, i guess the webpages were outdated
[20:22] <ActionParsnip> nirazio: many, mainly outside of $HOME
[20:22] <jiffe> it looks like cacti was uninstalled, which has a recommended package of mysql-server, if I don't want to remove mysql-server how do I remove that from the autoremove list ?
[20:22] <ActionParsnip> FredFlinstone: find other guide
[20:22] <ActionParsnip> s
[20:22] <FredFlinstone> ActionParsnip, got a link for me on that? :)
[20:22] <ActionParsnip> FredFlinstone: there are so many, for me to give you just one would be ridiculous
[20:22] <Atriktison> ok thanks
[20:23] <sandking> greta
[20:24] <elias79> ?
[20:24] <sandking> great - i could copy files now but now frets on fire has access denied :]
[20:24] <Suboptimal> hey
[20:24] <etheretic> Hello! Running amule and/or transmission causes horrendous lag n my connection. What may the cause be?
[20:24] <Suboptimal> what do i gain by using the loop option in (mount -o loop), when mounting an iso?
[20:25] <itaylor57> wb KM0201
[20:25] <baggar11> Suboptimal: I think it's required, otherwise you can't mount the file
[20:25] <KM0201> itaylor57: ty
[20:25] <nerdy_kid> I need to strip all '!'s and ':'s out of a bunch of filenames, how would I do this?  I have been shown rename, but I dont know how to use perl expressions.
[20:26] <ActionParsnip> etheretic: what version of transmission
[20:26] <ZykoticK9> Suboptimal, loop is required for mounting ISOs
[20:26] <yhager> I am looking for the package libantlr3c-dev, and I found it on debian sid. Can I install it in Ubuntu somehow? http://packages.debian.org/sid/libantlr3c-dev
[20:26] <FredFlinstone> ActionParsnip, for a win box named PC1 with a share named MEDIA is this correct -  //PC1/MEDIA /media/MEDIA cifs credentials=/home/fred/.creds,iocharset=utf8,file_mode=0777,dir_mode=0777 0 0
[20:26] <itaylor57> nerdy_kid: you can do it via shell scripts, bash or perl
[20:26] <diskin> nerdy_kid, gprename will help probably
[20:26] <FredFlinstone> assuming i did the rest ok?
[20:26] <Suboptimal> ZykoticK9: if i do it without it
[20:26] <FredFlinstone> is uppercase correct here?
[20:26] <Suboptimal> ZykoticK9: what happens?
[20:27] <ZykoticK9> Suboptimal, it won't work ;)
[20:27] <ActionParsnip> FredFlinstone: does the folder /media/MEDIA   exist?
[20:27] <Jordan_U> Suboptimal: Try it, it will fail.
[20:27] <etheretic> ActionParsnip: Hello again :-) It's v 2.13
[20:27] <ZykoticK9> FredFlinstone, i don't think the // is correct
[20:27] <FredFlinstone> ActionParsnip, i did create one with root in nautilus

[20:27] <Typh> my font rendering regularly gets all distorted and wacky. Changing the hinting fixes it, but is there any shortcut that might force everything to refresh/redraw?
[20:28] <stiang> my lucid EC2 image has no free devices to mount EBS volumes (/dev/sda1 is root, /dev/sda2 is ephemeral storage). how can I add more devices?

[20:28] <HavokDelta6> heya, just wondering guys, how does one change the audio bit depth, i've found out how to change the sample rate already (athough recomformation - or an alternate way - is welcome)
[20:28] <ActionParsnip> etheretic: then its not from the Ubuntu repo, you should contact the developer
[20:28] <ZykoticK9> FredFlinstone, will if that page says it right - i guess it's correct
[20:29] <Suboptimal> ZykoticK9: what about -o loop,ro?

[20:29] <FredFlinstone> ok , one last thing, do i need to reboot , or restart samba?
[20:29] <ZykoticK9> Suboptimal, i'd guess that will prevent the read only error - but it would work either way

[20:29] <nerdy_kid> diskin: thanks, that looks like it should do the trick :)
[20:30] <etheretic> ActionParsnip: I believe it ccame with the vanilla 10.10 distro
[20:30] <Antonis> guys could someone please tell me how to change the colors of the workspace switcher on gnomepanel without changing theme? Is it something I can do through .gtkrc-2.0 perhaps?
[20:31] <ActionParsnip> etheretic:  transmission (source: transmission): lightweight BitTorrent client. In component universe, is optional. Version 2.04-0ubuntu2 (maverick), package size 0 kB, installed size 20 kB   so it's 2.04 in maverick

[20:31] <wildfire100> hi, my mic isnt working how do i fix this, how do i get to the settings??
[20:31] <rushana> hey julle varkies
[20:32] <sparc> So, people say Ubuntu isn't a serious distribution we can use in production
[20:32] <FredFlinstone> sudo mount -a = mount error(110): Connection timed out Refer to the mount.cifs(8) manual page (e.g. man mount.cifs)
[20:32] <snake__> How.do.I.turn.it.off.
[20:32] <ActionParsnip> sparc: if it suits your needs, why not
[20:32] <rushana> ubuntu is kak kool
[20:32] <FredFlinstone> i guess its NOT right - take out the // and put / ?
[20:32] <sparc> and that it doesn't have the patches or extra utilties that RHEL has
[20:32] <KM0201> Antonis: i have no idea where that color is set.... i imagine yu
[20:32] <KM0201> Antonis: i imagine you'll be looking a while to find someone that does
[20:32] <Suboptimal> by the way, is it the same using the wine command in terminal and right click open with wine?
[20:32] <sparc> does Ubuntu have corresponding tools to work with the kernel and kickstarting?
[20:32] <ActionParsnip> sparc: its the same OS essentially so is as flexible as you like
[20:33] <sparc> it's not the same OS, redhat's modified the kernel and backports security updates and features
use elementary nautilus instead
[20:33] <etheretic> ActionParsnip: should it make a difference? I'd think its's a config thing, since the same issue arises with amule.
[20:33] <zroysch> how do i get the rhythmbox icon in the dock on the top right like it used to be? running ubuntu 10.10
[20:33] <sparc> and also offers add-on programs and utils, along with the redhat network
or else change the key combination
[20:33] <_unallocated_> How can I know the IP address of a buddy in Pidgin?
[20:33] <KM0201> sparc: then use Redhat?
[20:33] <Antonis> KM0201, do you maybe know where in a theme i can find the values? maybe I could edit the theme instead?
[20:34] <dagni> this is really big chan ;)
[20:34] <ActionParsnip> etheretic: yes! you are using an app and we have no idea how it was made or compiled, if you use the Ubuntu one then it is consistent and we can support it
[20:34] <sparc> KM0201: yeah, i think maybe that's what the data's poitning to
[20:34] <KM0201> Antonis: thats what i'm saying,  i have no idea, and you'll probably be hard pressed to find soemone that does
[20:34] <KM0201> sparc: well... buh bye

[20:34] <aeon-ltd> Antonis: you talking about gtk themes?
[20:35] <ActionParsnip> sparc: i recommend you try it to see
[20:35] <ActionParsnip> sparc: if you like it, use it. If not then its easy to switch to whatever distro you prefer
[20:35] <Antonis> aeon-ltd, yes.. actually I am talking about the gnomepanel and the workspace switcher.. I want to change the colors of the workspace switcher without changing the whole theme
[20:35] <wildfire100> help please??
[20:35] <snake__> sudipta, perhaps.it's.because.I.updated.to.10.10,.but.the.change.wasn't.immediate.
[20:36] <KM0201> wildfire100: ask your question, if someone can help, they will
[20:36] <vipul> j
[20:36] <sparc> ActionParsnip: ok sounds good.  i already use redhat for my company.  i was looking for reasons to switch
[20:36] <FredFlinstone> ActionParsnip, what about the uppoercase?
then what?it works fine with me...(I guess)

[20:37] <ActionParsnip> FredFlinstone: linux is VERY case sensitive so you must be accurate there too
[20:37] <FredFlinstone> MEDIA or media?
[20:37] <ActionParsnip> FredFlinstone: ALL, be accurate with ALL cases
[20:37] <FredFlinstone> how do i check it?
what is ur actual problem?can u elaborate
[20:37] <ActionParsnip> FredFlinstone: well YOU made the mount point so you can check that easily
[20:38] <aeon-ltd> Antonis: ok, i think gnome-panel handles its own background and images, as for the workplace switcher it may source its images from somewhere within /usr/share
[20:38] <wildfire100> KM0201, my question is further up in the chat
[20:38] <ActionParsnip> FredFlinstone: YOU also shared the folder on the server side, so can check that case too
[20:38] <FredFlinstone> it is uppercase like the WIN share name
[20:38] <KM0201> wildfire100: have you looked in your sound settings?
[20:38] <FredFlinstone> so then upper is correct
[20:38] <ActionParsnip> FredFlinstone: then you know what to do

[20:46] <aeon-ltd> soerenbnoergaard: right click, open with, use this for similar file types. something along those lines, but if its vim (not gvim) you'll need something like xterm -e vim; or gnome-terminal -e vim
[20:47] <ZykoticK9> chaospsychex, is the executable on either a CD or a Windows partition?
[20:47] <chaospsychex> a windows partition

[20:52] <aeon-ltd> soerenbnoergaard: you didn't put the semicolon did you? its just 'xterm -e vim'
[20:52] <chaospsychex> is there anything better than WINE?
[20:53] <b2ag_> FredFlinstone: "sudo mount -a = mount error(110): Connection timed out " means network connection could not be established

[20:53] <jianfei> any alternatives to Tor?
[20:53] <soerenbnoergaard> aeon-ltd: No I didn't. Should it be 'vi' or 'vim' ?
[20:53] <ZykoticK9> FredFlinstone, FYI you may run into problems with putting Windows mounts into fstab if that server is not available (might prevent bootup of Ubuntu)

[20:53] <aeon-ltd> soerenbnoergaard: your choice

[20:55] <secretary_linux> Hi all, I find myself very confused by Ubuntu's transition to upstart.

[21:03] <resixian> FredFlinstone: as an aside, it would help putting nick's in your responses

[21:05] <Guest16980> ot ask if i am root what now?
[21:05] <resixian> FredFlinstone: you do it just the same as with fstab, but instead use 'sudo mount -o <options> -t cifs //PC1/MEDIA <path to share>'

[21:07] <karthick87> !vnc
[21:08] <Guest16980> aw dude mi terminal got filled wyth "y"
[21:08] <ZykoticK9> Rogan_, "ps aux" should show everything that's running (there must be an easier way to find out though)
[21:08] <vcarney> KM0201: i go to preferences -> network manager and then the window doesn't even open
[21:08] <fleshpike> wilhart : tell us your problem
[21:09] <Rogan_> ZykoticK9: Cool, that'll do for now thanks :) Thought there would be a test page/port somewhere but I'll find that out later
[21:09] <KM0201> vcarney: that is strange, are you on the live cd
[21:09] <shawnboy> How do I get Android adb running? I followed instructions, but can't seem to get it running.
[21:09] <Jordan_U> !ot | BlackBox
[21:09] <wilhart> fleshpike, i would like soundblaster x-fi xtreme audio drivers
[21:09] <nirazio> Does anybody know an alternative MS Terminal Server for Ubuntu (Debian) which can be used for connection of Windows thin clients ? It is a big advantage if there are no limitation for a number of connected thin clients.
[21:09] <vcarney> KM0201: no, i'm on 10.10 dual booted.
[21:09] <zeler> hello ! i'm trying to uninstall exim and it forces me to install postix ! can i avoid that ?
[21:09] <ZykoticK9> Rogan_, try opening 127.0.0.1 in a browser and you should see "it works" or similar
[21:09] <Dazza71> hi guys been told i can use something called virtualbox so i can use windows programs on unbuntu is this right ?
[21:09] <fleshpike> wilhart : isn t it working?
[21:09] <wilhart> fleshpike, i cant' get into sound -> preferences
[21:09] <FredFlinstone> MOUNT FAILED syntax stuff , well i cant figure that out, if someone can , i have to go to the washroom can you msg me
[21:09] <wish^> For some reason i cant enable the visual effects in ubuntu, anyone able to help?
[21:09] <vcarney> KM0201: i just upgraded from 10.04 since my intel integrated graphics didn't work
[21:10] <shawnboy> Dazza71: one option
[21:10] <ZykoticK9> Dazza71, vbox allows you to install windows inside ubuntu - not just programs
[21:10] <wilhart> fleshpike, it's working yes but can't enter sound setup
[21:10] <ZykoticK9> Dazza71, wine for just programs
[21:10] <KM0201> vcarney: i don't see "network manager" in the preferences menu.
[21:10] <wilhart> fleshpike, it just says Waiting for sound system to respond
[21:10] <guntbert> Dazza71: with virtualbox you can run windows (or many other OSes) in a virtual machine
[21:10] <KM0201> are you using network connections?
[21:10] <Dazza71> i see but cant get the programs to work with wine
[21:10] <vcarney> KM0201: maybe it was administration ->
[21:10] <ZykoticK9> KM0201, i think vcarney is using an old version perhaps
[21:10] <KM0201> vcarney: thats network tools
[21:10] <Rogan_> :) Well, dispite it not being running, I'm pleased, because it means my other scripts probably were working
[21:11] <KM0201> ZykoticK9: well, he says he's using 10.10.
[21:11] <fleshpike> wilhart : does your board have a internal sound chip?
[21:11] <shawnboy> Can someone help me get Android SDK (and adb) running?
[21:11] <KM0201> thats why i'm trying to clarify
[21:11] <wilhart> fleshpike, it's internal yep
[21:11] <wilhart> fleshpike, how do i check that? btw.
[21:11] <ZykoticK9> KM0201, then he's mistaken - as i too don't have any Network Manager
[21:11] <vcarney> KM0201: yes i'm on 10.10
[21:11] <KM0201> ZykoticK9: i as gonna get to that, i was just going to make him embrace the horror
[21:11] <zeler> anyone can help ?  i'm trying to uninstall exim and it forces me to install postix ! can i avoid that ? like an apt-get -ignore something ?
[21:12] <lul> at-get ignore user

[21:14] <ActionParsnip> Entelin: yes, but not in the chroot, so you need to mount it
[21:14] <vcarney> KM0201: dns doesn't resolve.
[21:14] <KM0201> vcarney: ok, you're either connected to a wireless network, or your not.
[21:14] <Jemt> Ubuntu supports multiple keyboard layouts. When enabled, I get a fancy keyboard switcher in my top panel. Is it possible to add keyboards though a console? I need to add multiple languages on many computers

[21:16] <nirazio> Does anybody know an alternative MS Terminal Server for Ubuntu which can be used for connection of Windows thin clients ? It is a big advantage if there are no limitation for a number of connected thin clients.
[21:16] <Dazza71> what is best option if i need to access windows programs but cant use them with wine as they fail to open or crash ?
[21:16] <tolis> Jordan_U: yes i have 2 drives
[21:17] <tolis> Jordan_U: but i have a grub partition
[21:17] <chaospsychex> what is the difference between terminal and console
[21:17] <ActionParsnip> Dazza71: there is no sigle best option for ANYTHING
[21:17] <guntbert> Dazza71: install windows in a virtual machine
[21:17] <webroasters> hi guys. i can't seem to uninstall "bandwidthd" and I've scowered the interwebs for help, nothing works.
[21:17] <Dazza71> and in vmachine can i then open the programs safely ?
[21:18] <FredFlinstone> resixian, nautilus nwetwork browse fails too - failed to retrieve share list ..
[21:18] <ActionParsnip> Dazza71: you can use a virtualbox and use the app seamlessly if you want. You will need and be running a full WIndows OS (you'll need valid licence and install media) as well as Ubuntu so is a lot of bloat
[21:18] <ZykoticK9> Dazza71, your "best" option is to find linux alternatives to your windows programs :p
[21:18] <guntbert> Dazza71: you will be running a standard windows in there
[21:18] <ActionParsnip> Dazza71: sure its safe
[21:18] <radi> hello
[21:18] <webroasters> hi
[21:18] <radi> any solution for this bug ?
[21:18] <radi> https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/642421
[21:18] <webroasters> i can't seem to uninstall "bandwidthd" and I've scowered the interwebs for help, nothing works.
[21:18] <radi> tried all suggestions from launchpad
[21:19] <Jordan_U> tolis: When you say you have a grub partition, do you mean that you have a separate partition for grub's files (which is fine) or that you installed grub's boot sector to a partition (which doesn't make much sense and can cause things to break)?
[21:19] <ActionParsnip> Dazza71: what does you incompatible app do?
[21:19] <inphernal> Hey, can anyone help me out with a partitioning problem I'm having?
[21:19] <Dazza71> but i guess then i would have to re-install the software in the virtualbox ?
[21:19] <ActionParsnip> Dazza71: is this some itunes nonesense?
[21:19] <tolis> Jordan_U: sry i mean boot partition
[21:19] <Dazza71> they crash a lot
[21:19] <KM0201> lol, itunes nonsense
[21:19] <Dazza71> no office programs and msmoney
[21:19] <wilhart> soo what's up with gnome 3 ?
[21:19] <ActionParsnip> Dazza71: its windows so will only crash like it does in windows
[21:19] <resixian> FredFlinstone: it seems like there is a permission issue from the windows box
[21:19] <wilhart> is it awailable ?
[21:19] <ActionParsnip> Dazza71: have you considered gnucash?
[21:20] <ActionParsnip> wilhart: there is a ppa for it
[21:20] <ZykoticK9> wilhart, gnome-shell (side not, looks like it's being removed from upcoming 11.04)
[21:20] <KM0201> wilhart: scheduled release date ist he year 2030, but that could be pushed back.
[21:20] <webroasters> can someone help me about bandwidthd
[21:20] <FredFlinstone> resixian, 3 win boxes they all like each other, and ubuntu 10.04 did too
[21:20] <wilhart> ActionParsnip, soo, how stable is it?
[21:20] <webroasters> i can't seem to uninstall "bandwidthd"
[21:20] <Dazza71> i could find alternative money prog but i use databases at work and they only use access and nothing seems to work with them files
[21:20] <ActionParsnip> Dazza71: seems like a LOT of OTT for Office when you have openoffice, you cold even grab crossover office or cedega if you want to pay cash for a solution, they will make them run a little better
[21:20] <resixian> FredFlinstone: so this is a new problem after upgrading?
[21:21] <ActionParsnip> wilhart: no idea, i dont use gnome
[21:21] <KM0201> webroasters: how did you install it?
[21:21] <webroasters> i downloaded a deb file
[21:21] <FredFlinstone> resixian, so, they are already set ok, its the ubuntu, its a clean install, upgrade ruinded stuff
[21:21] <shawnboy> anyone running android sdk successfully?
[21:21] <KM0201> webroasters: well, sudo apt-get remove packagename
[21:21] <webroasters> i tried that
[21:21] <Jordan_U> tolis: Try changing the boot order in the BIOS, if that doesn't work then please run boot info script as explained here: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1291280 and pastebin the RESULTS.txt.
[21:21] <radi> anyone ?
[21:21] <KM0201> webroasters: and..?
[21:21] <webroasters> it comes back with errors and I've looked online and I ahven't been able to find a fix
[21:21] <ZykoticK9> wilhart, gnome-shell is a long way from being feature complete (when compared to gnome)
[21:21] <ActionParsnip> wilhart: http://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/2010/11/install-vanilla-gnome-3-in-maverick/
[21:21] <inphernal> Can anyone help me with a partitioning issue I'm having? I'm trying to merge unallocated space to make a /home partition but there's a hidden partition (Win7, I'm assuming) in between the two and I can't figure out how to move it
[21:22] <FredFlinstone> resixian, i am VERY sorry that i did vmware first, or i would  have already toasted this , yet again
[21:22] <Dazza71> is they any program that can open access database files then ?
[21:22] <Dazza71> there *
[21:22] <shawnboy> inphernal: do you have room to move it?
[21:22] <wilhart> ActionParsnip, if it doesnt work can i fallback install ?
[21:22] <FredFlinstone> next installl, shares first :)
[21:22] <tolis> Jordan_U: ok thanks
[21:23] <Jordan_U> tolis: You're welcome.
[21:23] <wilhart> ActionParsnip, or does it add in gdm gnome3 ?
[21:23] <KM0201> wilhart: This isn’t an upgrade than can be easily reversed either so be aware of what this entails before attempting.     right from the webpage
[21:23] <Chaos2358> how risky is it to set up a dual boot?
[21:23] <ActionParsnip> wilhart: i guess you could drop to livecd or root recovery mode, remove the ppa and install gnome
[21:23] <FredFlinstone> a fellow who is new shouldnt always be formatting to solve stuff, so i HAVE to bug you guys, so please bear with me
[21:23] <ThatBum> Chaos2358: not too bad, i set mine up with little difficulty
[21:23] <rizo> i am using xchat and i dont see the timestamp... and i cant fint the option to enable it... any idea?
[21:23] <Chaos2358> meaning i already have ubuntu 10.10 and want to set up xp as dual boot
[21:24] <KM0201> Chaos2358: if you pay attention, it's fairly safe...
[21:24] <inphernal> Yeah I have  |sda1(1.4GB)|sda2(140GB)|UNALLOCATED(80GB)|sda3(9.6GB)hidden|UNALLOCATED(232GB)
[21:24] <FredFlinstone> resixian, nautilus nwetwork browse fails too - failed to retrieve share list - can we find out why?
[21:24] <KM0201> Chaos2358: how is ubuntu installed now?.. as the sole OS on the machine?
[21:24] <s5s> Hey guys I have a problem sending mail through (al)pine. I can read mail and I pretty much know what the problem is with sending but don't know how to fix it. Can anyone who's using pine through IMAP help?
[21:24] <IonizeD> hello
[21:24] <webroasters> is there a way to find this package physically and delete it???
[21:24] <Chaos2358> KM0201, yes it is
[21:24] <inphernal> I want to move it into that 80GB unallocated space and combine the rest of the free space for a /home partition
[21:24] <wilhart> KM0201, how stable is this gnome3?
[21:24] <ActionParsnip> Dazza71: sounds like you may need office if you use MS Access, if you are doing proper database work I suggest you use SQL
[21:25] <p47> I need to make a udisk downgrade but "Force version" seems dont function ! help !
[21:25] <ThatBum> Chaos2358: on my box, i have xp and ubuntu on a dual boot, each with their own separate 160GB drive, and a 320GB drive for /home for linux
[21:25] <KM0201> wilhart: i have no idea, i don't use it.. i just copy/pasted that off the webpage
[21:25] <Dazza71> can sql be used on unbuntu then ?
[21:25] <s5s> Chaos2358: It is not risky at all. There is no risk whatsoever. However, I find it much more convenient to use a single boot maching + Vbox for windows.
[21:25] <p47> I need to make a udisk downgrade but "Force version" seems doesn't work! help !
[21:25] <KM0201> Chaos2358: well, when you install XP, it's going to overwrite grub, so you'll need to be prepared to reinstall that, but other than that, not to bad
[21:25] <radi> is there a patch or fix for this bug ? https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/642421?comments=all
[21:25] <radi> official one
[21:25] <ThatBum> Chaos2358: just install windows first and ubuntu seconds, or windows will eat your master boot record and you won't be able to boot ubuntu
[21:25] <ThatBum> second*
[21:25] <Dazza71> i like unbuntu and if i can get programs to do the same job as office then wud stay with them
[21:26] <MrKeuner> bodybrowser.googlelabs.com crashes X or GDM I am not sure, is this a chrome problem or an X problem
[21:26] <ActionParsnip> Dazza71: sure, its a standardized ting. If you want to use MS Access you will more than likely need a virtualbox
[21:26] <KM0201> s5s: well that's pretty much irrelevant, cuz it didn't tend to his question, maybe his pc isn't powerful enough to run 2 OS's, or maybe he wants to play games?
[21:26] <dyllan> if facebook offline for anyone else?
[21:26] <BlackBox> Ubuntu is the only linux distro which has worked out the box for me. as to say.

[21:26] <radi> am i talking to a wall or something -.-
[21:27] <KM0201> inphernal: just ask.
[21:27] <BlackBox> radi: why
[21:27] <Dazza71> i have the xp disk and cud install vbox but then i guess i wud have to re-install office again then ?
[21:27] <Chaos2358> ThatBum,  KM0201 ok would it be possible to set it up so that both window and ubuntu can access my media? as in pics vids music documents? I would like to lets say partition as so 10gig for xp, 10 gig for ubuntu, and the remaining 300 gig as shared. is that possible?
[21:27] <may_null> Hi I want to connect internet using iwconfig and dhclient but how can I set WPA password key ?
[21:27] <inphernal> I have been
[21:27] <ActionParsnip> Dazza71: yes, it'll need installing in the virtualbox too

[21:28] <KM0201> Chaos2358: yes...Ubuntu should be able to read your NTFS partition out of the box... so if you keep your multimedia crap on your windows partition, you should be able to use it no prob w/ Ubuntu
[21:28] <chaospsychex> why won't a installed program run when i click on it
[21:28] <radi> jef91, just go to adobe web site and download i t
[21:28] <FredFlinstone> part of samba MUST be missing, i go in synaptic, and it looks like hundreds of samba things missing, ANYONE?
[21:28] <inphernal> I have |sda1(1.4GB)|sda2(140GB)|UNALLOCATED(80GB)|sda3(9.6GB)hidden|UNALLOCATED(232GB)
[21:28] <chaospsychex> i used apt-get to install a program
[21:28] <radi> or use chrome
[21:28] <chaospsychex> didn't get any errossa
[21:28] <Dazza71> and i am sure someone said it wud be safe and virus free using vbox on unbuntu to access windows programs ?
[21:28] <inphernal> The allocated ones are Win7 partitions
[21:28] <jef91> radi - read that thread
[21:28] <ActionParsnip> inphernal: gparted should do all that for you, just be sure the partitions you want to manipulate aren't mounted
[21:28] <p47> I need to downgrade udisk with synaptic but "Force version" function seems to doesn't work ! any help ?
[21:28] <chaospsychex> but when i click on the program in wont open
[21:28] <Chaos2358> KM0201,  so ubuntu reads through the partition as standard?
[21:28] <ThatBum> Chaos2358: you have to make a separate partition that can be read by both linux and windows...e.g. not ext4 or other unix filesystems
[21:28] <inphernal> I can't launch gparted
[21:28] <FredFlinstone> DO I NEED UBUNTU SERVER just TO SHARE FILES TWO WAYS?
[21:28] <FredFlinstone> OOPS
[21:28] <webroasters> thx guys
[21:28] <KM0201> Chaos2358: yes...
[21:28] <demonspork> on Ubuntu I am running into an issue with disk IO crippling the system. In Windows 7 on this same machine, I can move massive files without it affecting performance of desktop activities like internet browsing. Right now I am moving some large directories and it is causing other parts to react slowly, like web browsing and switching to different windows.
[21:29] <ActionParsnip> FredFlinstone: no, you can use samba on desktop
[21:29] <jrib> FredFlinstone: no...
[21:29] <BlackBox> radi: i had the same problem just reinstalled and it worked
[21:29] <inphernal> I can launch KDEped though
[21:29] <radi> jef91, did that already and tried all solutions
[21:29] <ActionParsnip> inphernal: then run:   sudo apt-get --reinstall install gparted
[21:29] <radi> BlackBox, well, i dont want to reinstall
[21:29] <ActionParsnip> inphernal: or if you use kde, kparted
[21:29] <Mr18> Hello, I just installed Ubuntu. However, I am not getting internet.
[21:29] <wilhart> anyone using that gnome 3 ?
[21:29] <FredFlinstone> ActionParsnip,  well this version dont like me, why are so many thigs not install when i search samba in synaptic?
[21:29] <Chaos2358> ThatBum, what do you mean?
[21:29] <boyglick> hai
[21:30] <BlackBox> Mr18: over wireless
[21:30] <FredFlinstone> an what is samba 4 do i want that?
[21:30] <BlackBox> ?
[21:30] <Mr18> BlackBox, Yes.
[21:30] <joshmclvl1> Mr18: you are using a laptop, yes? can you use the internet over ethernet cable?
[21:30] <BlackBox> Mr18: If you can connect by ethernet and then install all updates
[21:30] <Mr18> joshmclvl1, No, currently I am using a laptop.
[21:30] <FredFlinstone> shoudl i install everything with the word samba in it?
[21:30] <ThatBum> Chaos2358: you can have all your stuff of the windows partition and just set that drive to automount when you start ubuntu, and then make a link to it, but that's kind of a meh solution
[21:30] <inphernal> ActionParsnip: Didn't work:  I have |sda1(1.4GB)|sda2(140GB)|UNALLOCATED(80GB)|sda3(9.6GB)hidden|UNALLOCATED(232GB)
[21:30] <BlackBox> Mr18: should work after
[21:30] <inphernal> Sorry, E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)
[21:30] <Mr18> but the machine that has it is a desktop.
[21:31] <ThatBum> Chaos2358: make a third partition with no os on it, just stuff, and both os's can share it
[21:31] <inphernal> I am running Live USB if that makes a difference
[21:31] <boyglick> im so glad that 5 months ago i setup ubuntu as my mom's main computer
[21:31] <BlackBox> Mr18: connect via ethernet then install updates then the wireless should work fine.
[21:31] <boyglick> i no longer have to fix viruses, and trojans, and things breaking
[21:31] <joshmclvl1> Mr18: if you connect by ethernet, you can probably dl the drivers for your wireless card (through system / administration / additional drivers)
[21:31] <Mr18> BlackBox, I know
[21:31] <boyglick> for people that arnt computer savvy ubuntu is definately better then windows
[21:31] <elias79> is this the general ubuntu chat ?
[21:31] <Mr18> but the case is extremely heavy.
[21:31] <BlackBox> Mr18: something to do with the old kernel not working with certain wireless chipsets
[21:32] <ActionParsnip> boyglick: same with my grandad, just has a big firefox (yuk) icon on the desktop next to amsn and he's away :)
[21:32] <guntbert> boyglick: nice, but please express you happiness in #ubuntu-offtopic -- this here is the support channel
[21:32] <Mr18> BlackBox, I am sure that this PCI is new.
[21:32] <ActionParsnip> elias79: this is support only, #ubuntu-offtopic for everything else
[21:32] <BlackBox> Mr18: Is it ralink
[21:32] <pero> anyone know some good keybinding program?
[21:32] <BlackBox> Mr18: model number
[21:32] <Mr18> Yes
[21:32] <aeon-ltd> boyglick: except people who use proprietry hardware; damn there should be a venn diagram for this
[21:32] <Mr18> BlackBox, ASUS PCE-N13
[21:32] <inphernal> Gparted still won't start
[21:33] <inphernal> KDEped did though
[21:33] <boyglick> yeah this was like a 300 dollar pc from frys
[21:33] <inphernal> Shows sda3 - unknown - 9GB - hidden
[21:33] <inphernal> That's my Win7 recovery partition
[21:34] <inphernal> I highlight it and move/resize isn't even an option
[21:34] <aeon-ltd> boyglick: i didn't mean internal hardware, i meant hardware like iPods etc
[21:34] <BlackBox> Mr18:  http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1471353
[21:34] <boyglick> aeon-ltd, oh, yeah, although, my ipod works fine with 'buntu
[21:35] <Mr18> BlackBox, Thank you.
[21:35] <Mr18> BlackBox, I do not see the wireless network at all.
[21:35] <Mr18> It seems the Ralink card is not functioning at all.
[21:35] <jkg> hi hi. to try debug an issue I'm having with a Xen domU running Lucid, I've been advised to disable irqbalance. 'service irqbalance stop' doesn't seem to cut it ('stop: Unknown instance:'), where should I be looking?
[21:35] <jkg> I'm happy to disable it somewhere and reboot, if required
[21:36] <pero> how to instal google earth on ubuntu 10.10?
[21:36] <ignitedcoding> Hey.. trying to install photoshop cs2 on Ubuntu with WINE. However, after I stick the cd in the drive ubuntu refuses to let wine run it because the setup.exe needs to first be given executable (+x) permissions. It's a cd, I can't modify that. Do I have to copy the entire cd to the hard drive and install it from there?
[21:36] <BlackBox> Mr18: Can you see your wireless card under system specs
[21:36] <Mr18> BlackBox, How?
[21:36] <Typh> Is there any way to automatically map users to other users when using ssh?
[21:36] <Dazza71> final question guys virtual box on unbuntu is it safe to use any windows based programs without fear of getting viruses
[21:36] <Typh> I hate forgetting to type user@server
[21:37] <mhahe> good evening. after running top in CLI and reading the VM content there are two values that are confussing me.. it says my vsize is 140G and then next to that there is framework vsize, which is 1G. whats the difference between the two?
[21:37] <Typh> and while I'm at it, what is "nomodeset" and why is it the answer to everything
[21:37] <wish^> I have a problem, for some reason i can slide my mouse out of my laptops screen as if i have 2 screens.. and the desktop simply scrolls to a blank area with nothing
[21:37] <crack05> Hi All , can I make backup
[21:37] <jkg> pero: you'll want to set up the medibuntu repository (see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Medibuntu) then it should just be sudo aptitude install googleearth
[21:37] <crack05> I had lost my graphic interface , I wana do backup
[21:37] <inphernal> How do I move my WIN7 recovery partition?
[21:38] <guntbert> Typh: for (1): create a shell script myssh....
[21:38] <BlackBox> Mr18: i have no idea just looking now

[21:39] <irieKEN> Howdy folks. Anyone know of why my laptop is still beeping at startup and shutdown, even though I've disabled both the pcspkr and snd_pcsp modules? (not POST beeps, btw);) I've been digging all over google and the forums, but haven't come up with anything that works.
[21:40] <irieKEN> wish^: I've seen that happen when your x resolution is set to something higher than your display can support; you'll get "panning".
[21:41] <wish^> yes irieKEN that is the problem, do you think it might be adjustable in the nvidia x server settings?
[21:41] <irieKEN> wish^: It probably is. Was it ever working properly?
[21:42] <BlackBox> Mrhttp://embraceubuntu.com/2007/02/18/find-hardware-specs-details-on-your-computer/18:     Then look for Network and wireless
[21:43] <radi> just use lspci -.-
[21:43] <FredFlinstone> ANYONE shoudl i install everything with the word samba in it? an what is samba 4 do i want that?
[21:44] <FredFlinstone> gotta be a way to wake it up
[21:44]  * jkg answers his own irqbalance question, doh, that was actually pretty straightforward :)
[21:44] <radi> did you tried samba's web site ? :P
[21:44] <irieKEN> wish^: Ignoring my response/inquest for further information?
[21:45] <ActionParsnip> FredFlinstone: just install samba, thats all you need

[21:50] <o2simo20> whats the name of it, is it a 'window manager'
[21:50] <aeon-ltd> o2simo20: metacity comes with gnome
[21:50] <KM0201> wow, rock on netsplit
[21:51] <rww> o2simo20: compiz?
[21:51] <o2simo20> yeah im runnin compiz

[21:52] <Godfather_> im trying to install libapache2-mod-php5, but when i load a .php i my browser automatically download it, any ideas? do i have to modify anything in httpd.conf ?
[21:52] <o2simo20> isn't loading when i start up, i have to select System>Preferences>Appearance for all the decorations to load
[21:52] <resixian> o2simo20: you mean for any decorations or just the ones you like?
[21:53] <o2simo20> just the 'new wave' one that i use
[21:53] <o2simo20> it has stopt loadin when i start up
[21:53] <o2simo20> i just get basic colours, until i click the appearance options, and then it sorts itself out
[21:53] <exa> Hi! Is there a way to see all windows in irssi? =(
[21:54] <itaylor57> exa: how do you mean?
[21:55] <Nitrodist> I have a broken wubi grub and I'm a bit lost as to how to boot back into ubuntu to get it back. I'm running 10.04.
[21:55] <exa> @itaylor57: I want to see all windows like NickServ, Channels etc. in a sidebar, is that posible?  I'm new to irssi ;)
[21:56] <MichealH> exa: You could ask in #irssi ?
[21:56] <exa> ok
[21:58] <Winston_Wolf> How the hell can I connect to forestnetẞ
[21:59] <Carbon357> nice
[21:59] <Godfather_> im trying to install libapache2-mod-php5, but when i load a .php i my browser automatically download it, any ideas? do i have to modify anything in httpd.conf ?
[21:59] <quentusrex> Godfather_, close your browser completely.
[21:59] <quentusrex> all windows.
[21:59] <Nitrodist> I have a broken wubi grub and I'm a bit lost as to how to boot back into ubuntu to get it back. I'm running 10.04 and I have a "grub>" prompt and access to the C: drive of my windows from the prompt.
[21:59] <quentusrex> Godfather_, also, google the issue. There are many posts talking about how to fix that problem.
[21:59] <area51pilot> Godfather: use synaptic or apt-get install +file name+
[21:59] <Godfather_> quentusrex, i google it, and i have php5 installed
[22:00] <lul> lul
[22:00] <Humble> guys whats the channel for backtrack ?
[22:00] <crickj> Godfather_: restart apache (sudo /etc/init.d/apache2 restart)
[22:00] <rww> Humble: #backtrack-linux
[22:00] <Humble> rww thanks alot
[22:00] <Nitrodist> crickj, wouldn't that be /etc/init.d/httpd restart ?
[22:00] <Godfather_> crickj, i did that
[22:01] <Godfather_> Nitrodist, nope
[22:01]  * crack05 is away (Gone)
[22:01] <quentusrex> Godfather_, have you closed your browser completely?
[22:01] <rww> ubottu: tell CRACK05 about away
[22:01] <zroysch> how long is it supposed to take ubuntuone to synchronize my files? its been sitting here saying "synchronization in progress" for at least the last hour. 0%
[22:01] <rww> lolbottu.
[22:01] <crickj> Godfather_: also check the apache config files
[22:02] <quentusrex> your browser caches the webpages it gets, and most of the time a simple reboot of the apache service after the install of the package fixes it. But your browser will make it seem still broken if you have not completely closed the browser.
[22:03] <lul> soup
[22:03] <Godfather_> crickj, i didnt see anything about php in apache2.conf
[22:04] <w4rd> anyone know a way I can limit concurrent http connections to a given host?
[22:04] <nikhatzi> hello people... do you know any webcam with embedded mic which works fine with ubuntu? (i want the mic to work too)
[22:04] <aertyu> hi
[22:04] <aertyu> i got a small question ?
[22:05] <erUSUL> w4rd: probably the http daemon you use can be configured for max allowed connections? or maybe some iptables ( ratelimit ? )
[22:05] <crickj> Godfather: php5 install via the package manager should add configuration for you
[22:06] <crickj> Godfather_:  https://help.ubuntu.com/8.04/serverguide/C/php5.html might help
[22:06] <Godfather_> crickj, http://pastebin.com/ZF5CqsCd
[22:06] <w4rd> erUSUL: i don't have control over the endpoint, it's a third-party web service that only allows 5 concurrent connections - i need some way to limit to 5 from my end
[22:06] <Godfather_> crickj, php5 is already installed
[22:07] <Godfather_> crickj, i have already installed those packages..
[22:07] <aertyu> i got 2 remote host, from a localhost i do a scp file1 from Remote host1 to remote host2 over an ssh connection from localhost if turn my localhost pc it will still continue to copy or not ?
[22:07] <Jemt> How can I disable access to floppy, cd-rom, network (LAN & WiFi) and USB storage? Is it possible to remove the user from certain groups ?
[22:07] <erUSUL> w4rd: http://www.debian-administration.org/articles/187
[22:07] <aertyu> i got 2 remote host, from a localhost IF i do a scp file1 from Remote host1 to remote host2 over an ssh connection from localhost if turn my localhost pc it will still continue to copy or not ?
[22:07] <crickj> Godfather_: you might find php mod in the mods-available dir - you need to symlink it to the mods-enables dir
[22:07] <zroysch> how long is it supposed to take ubuntu one to synchronize my files? its been sitting here saying "synchronization in progress" for at least the last hour. 0%
[22:07] <aertyu> i got 2 remote host, from a localhost IF i do a scp file1 from Remote host1 to remote host2 over an ssh connection from localhost if i turn  OFF my localhost pc it will still continue to copy or not ?
[22:08] <w4rd> erUSUL: i need to limit outbound connections though
[22:08] <itaylor57> !repeat | aertyu
[22:08] <erUSUL> Jemt: maybe if you remove them from plugdev floppy you are half there. then use /etc/network/interfaces instead of network manager to configure network?
[22:08] <aertyu> ! itaylor57 don't be like a bot
[22:08] <Jemt> erUSUL: That might work, thank you :)
[22:09] <Godfather_> crickj, http://pastebin.com/vjPxGPkA
[22:09] <erUSUL> w4rd: /join #netfilter ?
[22:09] <zroysch> how long is it supposed to take ubuntu one to synchronize my files? its been sitting here saying "synchronization in progress" for at least the last hour. 0%
[22:09] <rww> aertyu: itaylor57 and ubottu's advice to you was valid. I recommend following it.
[22:09] <itaylor57> ty rww :)
[22:09] <derick_> is it possible with network-manager to connect on boot like wicd?
[22:09] <Godfather_> crickj, as you see i have nothing in mods-available.
[22:10] <derickxx> is it possible with network-manager to connect on boot like wicd?
[22:10] <aertyu> please read what i written, i m not spamming and on the last sentence there more vocabulary than the rest
[22:10] <aertyu> re read
[22:10] <KM0201> derickxx: you mean like for network manager to auto connect to a wireless network?
[22:10] <derickxx> KM0201, yes
[22:10] <KM0201> derickxx: well of course it is.
[22:10] <derickxx> KM0201, while booting
[22:10] <rww> aertyu: Perhaps you should correct yourself before sending three almost-identical questions in less than a minute, then.
[22:11] <aertyu> bref
[22:11] <KM0201> derickxx: well, all i know is when i sign on, i'm online... i don't have to enter passwords, etc.
[22:11] <aertyu> do you understand my questioN ? rww
[22:11] <Nitrodist> crickj, wouldn't that be /etc/init.d/httpd restart ?
[22:11] <Nitrodist> oops
[22:11] <derickxx> KM0201, and before login?
[22:11] <KM0201> derickxx: i dunno about before.. i never tried to get online before login
[22:11] <crickj> Nitrodist: not on my machine
[22:12] <Godfather_> crickj, any ideas?
[22:12] <Godfather_> Nitrodist, in my machine is also /etc/init.d/apache2 restart
[22:12] <crickj> Godfather_: i've never had a problem when installing php5 libapache2-mod-php5 packages
[22:12] <rww> aertyu: yes
[22:12] <Nitrodist> Godfather_, word.
[22:12] <wilhart> what's the point with gnome3???
[22:13] <wilhart> no x-screen NO compiz NO nothing?
[22:13] <aertyu> if yes what is it possible ? rww
[22:13] <crickj> Godfather_: there is a generic LAMP package somewhere that installs and configures apache + php for you - try searching the repos for that
[22:13] <erUSUL> !lamp
[22:13] <KM0201> wilhart: well, no compiz... thats a bonus if you ask me.. but you have to remember, it is still beta.
[22:13] <rww> wilhart: Try asking in #ubuntu-offtopic. Ubuntu isn't shipping GNOME 3 yet, so it's offtopic for this channel.
[22:13] <Godfather_> Nitrodist, word?
[22:13] <erUSUL> crickj: Godfather_ sudo tasksel install lamp-server
[22:13] <Nitrodist> Godfather_, the word is the bird.
[22:13] <rww> aertyu: I'm not sure, but I'd guess not. I don't generally give answers if I don't know, hence me not doing so.
[22:13] <KM0201> wilhart: or maybe ask in #gnome ?
[22:13] <wilhart> nah
[22:13] <wilhart> installled it tried and blah
[22:14] <zroysch> how long is it supposed to take ubuntu one to synchronize my files? its been sitting here saying "synchronization in progress" for at least the last hour. 0%
[22:14] <aertyu> ok an other question
[22:14] <KM0201> wilhart: well, i like gnome 2.32  it's simplicity is a good halfway between simple, easy to use, while not being to heavy.
[22:14] <Godfather_> erUSUL, and now?
[22:15] <kholby> So, I'm dual booting ubuntu and Vista and having issues with the time in Vista.  I set hwclock to localtime, but no fix.  Time is always right in Linux, but when I booted in just now I checked hwclock and it was utc.  I check a couple minutes later and hwclock was localtime.
[22:15] <erUSUL> Godfather_: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ApacheMySQLPHP
[22:15] <aertyu> when you do apt-get install software there are line scrolling from UP to down i want to scroll it from down to UP is that possible ?
[22:15] <histo> kholby: so why are you asking here?  Time is off in vista has nothing to do with ubuntu
[22:15] <wilhart> KM0201, yep i use gnome ,x-screens
[22:16] <kholby> It has to do with ubuntu's hwclock.
[22:16] <histo> aertyu: what do you mean?
[22:16] <kholby> Vista reads the hwclock as localtime.  Ubuntu by default sets it as utc.  I changed that, but the change doesn't seem to stick.
[22:16] <rww> kholby: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuTime is the go-to page for this sort of problem.
[22:16] <kholby> rww:   Thanks.
[22:16] <histo> kholby: ubuntu can't set the clock in teh bios
[22:16] <KM0201> aertyu: the easiest way to change that... i sto change the "scrollback" in the terminal preferences, to some ridiculous number.. i have mine set to 50k... so i can always scroll back
[22:16] <rww> kholby: I have noticed that getting it set up right is rather fiddly, though. Might take a few times to stick :(
[22:17] <rww> histo: Yes, it can.
[22:17] <KM0201> aertyu: i do the same thing to xchat.
[22:17] <aertyu> when you do apt-get install software there are line scrolling from DOWN to UP  i want to scroll it from  UP to DOWN is that possible ?
[22:17] <o2simo20> rww: sort of know what the issue is now
[22:17] <o2simo20> but dont know how to solve it
[22:17] <valros> Could anyone help me debug an ssh timeout problem on my LAN?
[22:17] <crickj1> aertyu: turn the screen upside down
[22:17] <KM0201> aertyu: oh wait, nevermind...
[22:17] <rww> o2simo20: I don't use GNOME, so I'm probably not the best person to ask about Compiz/Metacity problems ;)
[22:17] <Nitrodist> I have a broken wubi grub and I'm a bit lost as to how to boot back into ubuntu to get it back. I'm running 10.04 and I have a "grub>" prompt. Also, the guides/forum posts about it point to my C:\ubuntu\disks/root.disk file but that file doesn't even exist for myself.
[22:17] <histo> rww: no it only adds or takes away time from it. It doesn't actually change the bios time
[22:17] <aertyu> lol
[22:17] <aertyu> tell me serious
[22:17] <o2simo20> its ok mate, it's a nautilus issue
[22:18] <rww> histo: Yes, it does.
[22:18] <o2simo20> because all other windows render ok, i think when i installed gloobus it has smashed nautilis
[22:18] <histo> aertyu: you want your temrinal to scroll the reverse way
[22:18] <histo> rww: No you are insane
[22:18] <jeus> how can help to install mysql 5.5 on ubuntu ?
[22:18] <o2simo20> histo thats not productive
[22:18] <rww> histo: Well yes, but I'm still right :)
[22:19] <aertyu> yes
[22:19] <aertyu> yes histo
[22:19] <rww> histo: You may find, for example, 'man hwclock' interesting.
[22:19] <shaw1337> #gsoc
[22:19] <mawst> On the reals man...
[22:19] <jeus> I want install mysql 5.5 and i dont know what do
[22:19] <kholby> rww:   I figured it was a config file somewhere.  Thanks.  Gonna reboot now and see what happens...
[22:19] <mawst> Anyone having a lot of compiz crashes in the past few days?
[22:19] <kholby> histo:   You're wrong.  I does change it.
[22:19] <o2simo20> so rww do you know what command i use to 're-stanll' or reverse the upgrade to gloobus/ nautilus
[22:20] <crickj> jeus: sudo apt-get install mysql-server
[22:20] <o2simo20> *re-install
[22:20] <valros> Okay, so within the lan, D can ssh to L, but L cant ssh into D, why? Yes the device is reachable. No ufw is not installed.
[22:20] <jeus> crickj, i want install mysql 5.5
[22:20] <histo> aertyu: hrm.. let me think on that one
[22:20] <histo> rww: interesting
[22:20] <jcmartinez> mawst: I have experienced some crashes on compiz
[22:20] <jeus> crickj, and is not in repository
[22:20] <jcmartinez> mawst: but only using unity, and in the alpha-1 version of natty
[22:20] <mawst> It never used to crash on me...
[22:21] <mawst> I'm in mav...
[22:21] <aertyu> ok take your time histo
[22:21] <mawst> It has to be something recent that changed...
[22:21] <jeus> crickj, iwant install from here http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.5/en/binary-installation.html
[22:21] <FredFlinstone> on thisp age https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MountWindowsSharesPermanently  what does this mean?
[22:21] <FredFlinstone> Note: Regretfully as from version 3.3.2-1ubuntu3.2 (October 2009) this approach is no longer possible together with the "user" option. A security fix prevents reading the credentials file if you don't have read access to it. You will have to pin the packages at version 3.3.2-1ubuntu3 or 3.3.2-1ubuntu3.1 to continue using this approach as non-root.
[22:21] <jcmartinez> mawst: no, on maverick is working ok for me, I didn't know about regular crashes, did you install something new?
[22:22] <sonorus> hi, how to save a game in PCSX emulator ??

[22:23] <o2simo20> oops sorry
[22:23] <KM0201> aertyu: i'm not awaer of any terminal app that has that option... you'd probably have to write it

[22:24] <histo> aertyu: I don't know of a way to always make it backwards.
[22:24] <FredFlinstone> You will have to pin the packages at?
[22:24] <o2simo20> what command do i use to reverse a upgrade? apt-get update or apt-get install it mentions that i have the latest version, does anyone know how to revert or downgrade
[22:24] <FredFlinstone> can someone explain this?
[22:24] <aertyu> ok
[22:24] <histo> aertyu: shift page up to scroll back though
[22:25] <crickj> Jeus: the server can be started view /opt/mysql5.5/bin/mysqld
[22:25] <jeus> crickj, icant find this
[22:26] <jwormy> I have a new core i7 that I just installed ubuntu 64bit on a SATA SSD. Using all default partition configurations and ubuntu 10.10...  The install goes fine, and I have used the 10.10 'live CD' fine. After install the machine reboots and after the bios post, the screen goes black and nothing happens

[22:26] <jeus> crickj, i cant find /opt/mysql 5.5/bin
[22:26] <joshmclvl1> jeus: `locate mysqld`?
[22:26] <crickj> jeus: the package should contain the mysqld file somewhere
[22:26] <jwormy> I have previously successfully installed ubuntu 10.04 32bit on the machine fine, but decided to install 64bit version to recognize all 12gb of memory

[22:28] <aertyu> during a ssh connection to an machine if you run for example a command like apt-get install takingtimesofware and if you quit the ssh connection the remote machine still online do you end the apt or it continue to work ?
[22:28] <Jordan_U> FredFlinstone: http://www.canonical.com/consumer-services/support
[22:28] <rww> FredFlinstone: Ubuntu's complete list of support options, including paid support, are linked at http://www.ubuntu.com/support . I'd recommend trying the other community-based ones first.
[22:28] <FredFlinstone> can i buy some help thru paypal?
[22:28] <FredFlinstone> ok
[22:29] <Skater0Guy> im trying to build dolphin and everytime i type sudo get-apt i get this Sorry, user skaterguy is not allowed to execute
[22:29] <CarlFK> FredFlinstone http://www.ubuntu.com/support/services
[22:29] <FredFlinstone> COMMUNITY STUFF? NOPE, i have been reading wrong pages enough
[22:29] <rww> FredFlinstone: I don't see http://askubuntu.com/ linked on that support page yet, but that's another option as well as the forums :)
[22:29] <CarlFK> aertyu: that will kill the apt-get.  look at the screen command to keep it alive
[22:30] <FredFlinstone> i am asking one of you to see me through and i will pay you if i must :)
[22:30] <ezrafree> hello
[22:30] <ezrafree> i recently upgraded thunderbird and ever since i keep getting a popup that says "Unable to find specified executable"
[22:31] <ezrafree> i've tried switching out /usr/bin/notify-send to /usr/bin/notify-osd but this still does not fix the problem. any ideas?
[22:31] <craiggles> with `rarcrack file.7z` i'm getting a segmentation error.
[22:31] <aertyu> ok i get CarlFK but screen command it is not for sharing terminal ?
[22:31] <crickj> Skater0Guy: your user account must be in the sudoers file to use sudo
[22:31] <crickj> see man sudoers
[22:31] <CarlFK> aertyu: what?
[22:31] <Skater0Guy> how do i do that
[22:31] <aertyu> you said : aertyu: that will kill the apt-get. look at the screen command to keep it alive
[22:31] <Skater0Guy> crickj: how do i
[22:32] <aertyu> but what i say is the screen is it not for sharing the terminal screen to an other user ?
[22:32] <CarlFK> aertyu: it can do that too.
[22:32] <aertyu> ok fine
[22:32] <FredFlinstone> oh man they don't even have a phone number you can call? i need support now, not someday
[22:32] <FredFlinstone> SO i am asking one of you to see me through and i will pay you if i must :)
[22:32] <aertyu> thanks a l ot CarlFK
[22:33] <KM0201> FredFlinstone: lol, what on earth are you trying to do that is so important?
[22:33] <jwormy> I recently installed ubuntu 10.10 64bit on a new corei7. Install goes fine but after the machine restarts (with the correct HD set as the boot device) nothing happens after the BIOS POST message. Ubuntu 10.10 works fine from the 'Test it out' CD option
[22:33] <FredFlinstone> prevent a STRESS ATTACK
[22:33] <FredFlinstone> and other things
[22:33] <normandy> trying to update qt4 so i can install skype, i get this:   libqt4-core: Depends: libqtcore4 (= 4.5.3really4.5.2-0ubuntu1) but it is not installable
[22:33] <KM0201> FredFlinstone: well, for that you need a doctor and alcohol, not technical support
[22:33] <normandy> why are they not installable, never esen this before
[22:33] <bluespark> hi! Is it possible to play two different sounds on headphones and internal speakers at the same time? thanks
[22:34] <billy_> soy nuevo en ubuntu .. pero por que todo sale en ingles ??
[22:34] <crickj> Skater0Guy: actually, your user account just needs to be a member of the sudo group, usually
[22:34] <sophoclius> bonsoir, j' ai besoin d' aide
[22:34] <rww> !es | billy_
[22:34] <KM0201> FredFlinstone: so what is the problem exactly?
[22:34] <billy_> ok .. gracias
[22:35] <georg_> guten abend
[22:35] <FredFlinstone>  because i want it done now, (been at it since yesterday) there is somethign wronmg with me?
[22:35] <Skater0Guy> crickj: i feel like an idiot
[22:35] <KM0201> .. what ..is...the...problem...
[22:35] <FredFlinstone> now my hands are shaking
[22:35] <crickj> Skater0Guy: why?
[22:35] <FredFlinstone> why you guys give me a hard time?
[22:36] <KM0201> FredFlinstone: lol, i'mn ot giving youa  hard time, i've asked repeatedly what the problem is, and all you talk abouot is your hands shaking and being frustrated and how mean we are
[22:36] <jwormy> FredFlinstone: maybe it would be best if you calm down a bit and come back with a level head to ask for help. No one is giving you a hard time.
[22:36] <ezrafree> FredFlinstone: state your problem and include as much details as you can, and maybe someone can help you
[22:37] <bluespark> hi! Is it possible to play two different sounds on headphones and internal speakers at the same time? thanks
[22:37] <FredFlinstone> if you have been here since yesterday, then you know i have been trying to get help, and i dont think i have a bad attitude , bu i am gettin impatienrt, yes ,it almost day 3
[22:37] <ezrafree> bluespark: i think that would require a sound card with two outputs
[22:37] <KM0201> FredFlinstone: well for the benefit of those who've not hung on every word you've said here, perhaps you could repeat your problem
[22:37] <KM0201> FredFlinstone: cuz i've been here since yesterday, and i don't know...
[22:37] <FredFlinstone> i shall try
[22:38] <bluespark> ezrafree; thanks, I have laptop and built in stuff? I should try maybe USB speakers or USB sound card?
[22:38] <FredFlinstone> followed a bad page or two to try to set up fstab to have win shares mounted every boot, now i am on a page that i cannot follow without help
[22:38] <billy_> I can help in ubuntu install corel !!!
[22:38] <billy_> I'm new .. although I have improved and I have several programs still need the corel dreamvewer for some web design
[22:39] <FredFlinstone> so if some1` willing to help i can show them wher i left off
[22:39] <KM0201> FredFlinstone: i guess i'm curious, why would you go to that hassle, when you can mount a NTFS drive by just going to places menu, and selecting the drive when you boot up
[22:39] <david553> I read that ssh2 allows several shells on the same ssh connection. I use the ssh connection to connect to remote machines, how do I see a second shell without using screen ?
[22:39] <ezrafree> bluespark: nd card sounds coming out at once
[22:40] <ezrafree> damnit
[22:40] <FredFlinstone> go here https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MountWindowsSharesPermanently search for this - this will ensure that only root can access this file.  - read the next paragraph and help me understand it
[22:40] <FredFlinstone> no i cant
[22:40] <ezrafree> bluespark: you would need one soundcard with two outputs to do that
[22:40] <FredFlinstone> resixian, nautilus nwetwork browse fails too - failed to retrieve share list ..
[22:40] <KM0201> FredFlinstone: so this is something you're trying to set up.. that is on another machine?
[22:40] <FredFlinstone> oops
[22:41] <FredFlinstone> resixian was trying to help me, thanks dude
[22:41] <bluespark> ezrafree; OK. thanks again... :)
[22:41] <FredFlinstone> i can see all my mahcines from each other the only one sick is ubuntu
[22:41] <FredFlinstone> it cannot see win shares
[22:42] <crickj> FredFlinstone: have you created the credentials file?
[22:42] <FredFlinstone> i got the other way going thru trial and error , and nobody told me to wait 5 minutes after restarting samba grrrrr
[22:42] <FredFlinstone> that cost me hours
[22:43] <KM0201> FredFlinstone: so what happens when you go to places/network ?
[22:43] <FredFlinstone> crickj, yes
[22:43] <FredFlinstone> failed to retrieve share list ..
[22:43] <FredFlinstone> failed to retrieve share list from server
[22:43] <guampa> FredFlinstone: tried using smbmount?
[22:43] <jwormy> sorry to keep asking again, but I just did an install with 10.10 64bit and after restarting after the install the machine will not boot into ubuntu. Doesn't seem to hit grub or anyting. The HD it is installed on is the bootable harddrive in my BIOS and I used the default partition setup.
[22:43] <FredFlinstone> guampa, nope im a noob, how?
[22:44] <crickj> FredFlinstone: have you edited fstab?
[22:44] <guampa> first check if you have it installed
[22:44] <ikonia> jwormy: what do you see
[22:44] <guampa> try to run "smbmount" in a terminal
[22:44] <bryhoyt> Hello, I've had this attack on my Ubuntu 8.10: http://lists.exim.org/lurker/message/20101207.215955.bb32d4f2.en.html
[22:44] <valros> how can i disable iptables?
[22:44] <ikonia> bryhoyt: what od you want us to do about it ?
[22:44] <crickj> valros: sudo ufw disable
[22:44] <KM0201> valros: i believe its off by default
[22:44] <FredFlinstone> i tried many variations in fstab
[22:44] <bryhoyt> I know 8.10 isn't supported anymore, but I'm a bit desperate. Does anyone have any experience with that attack?
[22:44] <bryhoyt> It's related to exim4.69
[22:45] <ikonia> bryhoyt: what do you want us to actually do about it ?
[22:45] <FredFlinstone> i really need to reboot to be sure wher i am at NOW
[22:45] <jwormy> ikonia: black screen of nothing..  display goes into power save mode due to the lack of input
[22:45] <valros> isnt ufw separate from iptables?
[22:45] <FredFlinstone> gimme 2 min
[22:45] <bryhoyt> and that's the latest version in the repositories, so I can't upgrade: how do I upgrade?
[22:45] <gonzojive_> I'm getting a purple screen of death when I start up :(
[22:45] <jwormy> ikonia: I installed ubuntu 10.04 32bit on the same machine earlier with no problems at all.
[22:45] <crickj> FredFlinstone: you'll need a reboot anyway after editing fstab
[22:45] <jwormy> and then ubuntu 10.10 64bit 'live cd' works great
[22:45] <skulltip> why would firefox or chrome load slowly
[22:45] <ikonia> bryhoyt: you can't, that 8.10 is dead
[22:45] <ikonia> jwormy: what video card do you have ?
[22:45] <crickj> valros: ufw is a frontend to iptables
[22:45] <guampa> crickj: actually a "mount -a" is all you need
[22:46] <gonzojive_> just tried to upgrade from lts 10.04 to 10.10, but my computer froze halfway through the "install" process of the network upgrade
[22:46] <crickj> guampa: oh yea - forgot that one
[22:46] <FredFlinstone> ok trying mount -a ..
[22:46] <valros> well its disabled but still no go, port 22 seems blocked
[22:46] <bryhoyt> ikonia: I know. But our mailserver's down, and I was hoping someone could give me a quick fix
[22:46] <bryhoyt> any ideas?
[22:46] <ikonia> bryhoyt: there isn't one
[22:46] <ikonia> bryhoyt: 8.10 is dead, so there is no where to get an update from
[22:47] <bryhoyt> yep
[22:47] <bryhoyt> so compile from source, I guess?
[22:47] <ikonia> bryhoyt: don't use non-lts distros for production servers, that's the answer
[22:47] <bryhoyt> or will that be a dead end, too?
[22:47] <FredFlinstone> mount error(110): Connection timed out
[22:47] <FredFlinstone> again :)
[22:47] <bryhoyt> thanks, ikonia, lesson learnt ;-)
[22:47] <crickj> valros: external firewall?
[22:47] <FredFlinstone> no sense rebooting is there?
[22:47] <FredFlinstone> LOL
[22:47] <ikonia> bryhoyt: I wouldn't put compilers and development headers on an internet facing mail server, that's lesson 02
[22:47] <valros> only intermediate device is dd-wrt
[22:47] <bryhoyt> ikonia: good point
[22:47] <guampa> FredFlinstone: tried with smbmount or not?
[22:47] <valros> and its not blocking other machines
[22:48] <crickj> FredFlinstone: check ubuntu's firewall
[22:48] <FredFlinstone> guampa, it is install, so
[22:49] <valros> how could i fully reset the firewall and ssh settings? reinstall openssh-server and ufw?
[22:49] <crickj> valros: ufw reset
[22:49] <guampa> FredFlinstone: so, try to build a command line with it to connect to the share...it is the backend for what you use in fstab anyway
[22:49] <jwormy> ikonia: PNY  Quadro FX 380 256mb..  video displays fine in install and using CD 'try it out'
[22:49] <guampa> one you have it working from command line, fstab is almost the same
[22:50] <ikonia> jwormy: Hmmm, do you get nothing from power on to where you are now on screen
[22:50] <bryhoyt> ikonia: do you know anything about that vulnerability? For a quick fix, for 1 week, (until we have a chance to upgrade to an LTS and fix some root problems), would removing gcc be safe enough?
[22:50] <valros> still nothing
[22:50] <FredFlinstone> -o options part?
[22:50] <guampa> FredFlinstone: correcto mondo
[22:50] <ikonia> bryhoyt: up to you, I wouldn't do it
[22:51] <FredFlinstone> no i mean do i need options or just -o
[22:51] <jwormy> ikonia: I get the typical BIOS post and all that, just whne it starts to boot the OS it just...  goes black and then quickly you see the monitor going into power save mode due to no input
[22:51] <ikonia> jwormy: do you see any part of the boot process
[22:51] <jwormy> ikonia: same hardware setup with 10.04 32bit worked great.
[22:51] <jwormy> ikonia: nope, no part of the boot process at all
[22:51] <guampa> FredFlinstone:  -o means "options start here" and you need the options, check "man smbmount"
[22:52] <FredFlinstone> yeah i am a guy who needs examples , not gettin git , yet
[22:52] <guampa> FredFlinstone: you need "user=", "password="
[22:52] <bryhoyt> ikonia: neither :-) except the alternative isn't much better (we can't quite live without our mailserver at the moment). So I'm trying to get a feel for what level of risk I'd be taking
[22:52] <bryhoyt> ikonia: but point taken, thanks
[22:52] <FredFlinstone> i need creds , any thing else?
[22:52] <ikonia> jwormy: that's very very odd
[22:52] <guampa> FredFlinstone: the share is in a windows domain or just a workgroup¿
[22:52] <guampa> ?
[22:52] <jwormy> ikonia: I agree!
[22:53] <jwormy> ikonia: for giggles I coudl try installing on a different harddrive and moving my BIOS boot to that one
[22:53] <Batags> how do yyou get an upside down ?   ?
[22:53] <Batags> lol
[22:53] <jwormy> ikonia: but I would rather leave the OS on the SSD.. ;)
[22:53] <Tonus> bryhoyt, you could consider replacing exim with postfix, if you're up for it and know how to migrate the configuration. this I wouldn't do if the configuration isn't very simple to begin with.
[22:54] <FredFlinstone> guampa, workgroup
[22:54] <guampa> Batags: latin american keyboard ;)
[22:54] <Batags> nice
[22:54] <Batags> thanks ill have to get one
[22:54] <kakashi__> please i wanna to install beowulf clustering in ubuntu but i dont know what services i should to install??
[22:54] <bryhoyt> Tonus: thanks, that a helpful idea. But yeah, in this case the config migration is probably not straightforward. Nothing too serious, but we have a couple mailing lists & virtual hosts config
[22:54] <FredFlinstone> AH HAH
[22:54] <toyman61> No sound from YouTube-videos. Error message in syslog:  "Error opening PCM device front:0: Device or resource busy". How can I find out which process who is holding the device ?  Ubuntu 10.04
[22:54] <FredFlinstone> unknown eror openin cred file
[22:55] <Tonus> bryhoyt, that's probably too risky on a production environment then. unless you have a test environment, or set up one, virtually perhaps.
[22:55] <FredFlinstone> I DID sudo chown root .smbcredentials AND sudo chmod 600 .smbcredentials
[22:55] <bryhoyt> Tonus: thanks anyway :-)
[22:56] <kakashi__> how can i install beowulf clustering ??
[22:56] <guampa> FredFlinstone: what command line did you use? (use dummy user/pass/machine etc)
[22:56] <FredFlinstone> i do exactly what things say but it DONT LIKE ME
[22:56] <FredFlinstone> the page is above
[22:57] <FredFlinstone> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MountWindowsSharesPermanently
[22:57] <guampa> FredFlinstone:  with that psycho attitude i'm stopping helping right now
[22:57] <Batags> sounds like a bunch of Ubuntu to me
[22:58] <Batags> lol
[22:58] <FredFlinstone> HOWEVER I was  first on this = https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MountWindowsSharesPermanently, which is maybe wrong?
[22:58] <crickj> FredFlinstone: with a timeout message it sounds as if the error is not do do with smbcredentials or fstab
[22:58] <guampa> calm down, stop shouting man
[22:58] <Chaos2358> quick question. does anyone know "for sure"whether the ubuntu 10.10 live download will fit on a 700 mb cd?
[22:58] <Drek010> hi
[22:58] <Eber> guys, how can I reproduce the window management of windows 7 with ubuntu?!?
[22:59] <FredFlinstone> i did exactly what that said , more than once
[22:59] <FredFlinstone> https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MountWindowsSharesPermanently, which is maybe wrong?
[22:59] <FredFlinstone> and if so i am  lost
[22:59] <resixian> FredFlinstone: did you ever try this from the cli?
[22:59] <Batags> 659mb download
[23:00] <resixian> FredFlinstone: or get any furhter even listing the shares? (e.g. smbclient -L)
[23:00] <Batags> should fit on a 700mb cd
[23:00] <crickj> FredFlinstone: try checking that the name of the file server is correct as well as the correct firewall ports are open
[23:00] <FredFlinstone> sorry for my attitude
[23:00] <guampa> i still don't know what's the command line you had used
[23:00] <Drek010> I'm having a problem running update on my ubuntu 10.10 desltop x64
[23:00] <FredFlinstone> i really DO appreciate any help
[23:00] <guampa> then act like you do
[23:01] <Chaos2358> batags ok last question i am running a laptop not a netbook. i use the desktop installation correct?
[23:01] <kakashi__> i wanna to install beowulf clustering without hard disk. but i dont know what services i chould install
[23:01] <georg_> is there a german ubuntu support?
[23:01] <FredFlinstone> resixian, i'll try that again listing the shares
[23:01] <rww> georg_: /join #ubuntu-de
[23:01] <benhamill> Does anyone mind answering some bash prompt questions, or know a better channel to ask about that in?
[23:01] <kakashi__> please help me
[23:01] <rww> benhamill: #bash might be more helpful
[23:01] <FredFlinstone> times out
[23:02] <Drek010> the message says "The action would require the installation from not authenticated sources"
[23:02] <rww> Chaos2358: You can use either, they only differ in which interface they have. I'd recommend trying Desktop first.
[23:02] <benhamill> rww: Heh. i should have just guessed. Thanks.
[23:02] <Drek010> how can i fix this?
[23:02] <Chaos2358> rww ok thank you .
[23:02] <resixian> FredFlinstone:smbclient -L -U <your windows user> does what?
[23:02] <KM0201> !helpme > kakashi__

[23:05] <FredFlinstone> to all of them
[23:05] <FredFlinstone> with this one exception
[23:05] <ezrafree> guampa: because everything was working until i ran the command "sudo aptitude install lib-notify"
[23:06] <resixian> FredFlinstone: how have you set up the Xp shares?
[23:06] <FredFlinstone> so frustrating
[23:06] <Drek010> can someone help me?
[23:06] <guampa> ezrafree: what?
[23:06] <New0> rww by the way it's : #1045 - Access denied for user 'root'@'localhost' (using password: NO)  and can't connect to my PHPMYADMIN so if someone can help me even in PM tnx
[23:06] <ezrafree> it removed a bunch of packages, including linux 2.6 headers
[23:06] <Drek010> "The action would require the installation from not authenticated sources"
[23:06] <Drek010> ?
[23:06] <KM0201> ezrafree: well thats probably the problem, not libnotify
[23:06] <FredFlinstone> well its xp pro, i have advanced sharing in win explorer, one user allowed, fred
[23:07] <ezrafree> KM0201: why on earth would it remove such important packages?
[23:07] <KM0201> ezrafree: without seeing what yo were doing, i dont know.. but you didn't think when you saw all that stuff it was removing, not to uninstall it?
[23:07] <resixian> FredFlinstone: so like, right click-> sharing and security-> share this folder on the network?
[23:07] <resixian> somethign like that?
[23:08] <guampa> FredFlinstone: it does look odd, but at this point (you said you chmoded / chowned samba files) you may have a corrupt samba install. I'd go for checking a) that you effectively can reach the samba tcp port on asus1 and b) purging samba completetly and reinstalling in asus2
[23:08] <FredFlinstone> no i use aadvanced sharing in xp, not simple
[23:08] <trojan_spike> is there an admin A/C ? Like oem in windows 'ctrl - Alt - f3?
[23:08] <resixian> FredFlinstone: another thing, have you tried smbclient //<ASUS1 IP addr>  -L
[23:08] <ezrafree> i guess i trusted in the removing of such a simple package way too much
[23:09] <ezrafree> what command can i run to restore my system?
[23:09] <FredFlinstone> oh man
[23:09] <FredFlinstone> DOH
[23:09] <crickj> trojan_spike: the root account has all privelages, but is not for everyday use
[23:10] <rww> !sudo | trojan_spike
[23:10] <kakashi__> i wanna to install beowulf clustering without hard disk. but i dont know what services i chould install
[23:10] <jwormy> exit
[23:11] <trojan_spike> crickj, its a xmas prezy im building for a neighbour. Have ubuntu install , have the 'prepare for end user' etc.. just need to be able to delete the premade A/C by me
[23:11] <ezrafree> what command can i run to upgrade all my packages? is it just "sudo aptitude update" ?
[23:12] <rww> ezrafree: sudo aptitude update && sudo aptitude upgrade
[23:12] <guampa> FredFlinstone: that's what *I* would do, you might find another way out of the hole, ymmv. even that won't guarantee success
[23:12] <XLV> !grub
[23:12] <crickj> trojan_spike: your using the oem installer?
[23:12] <rww> ezrafree: assuming you have aptitude installed, otherwise replace "aptitude" with "apt-get" above.
[23:12] <XLV> !grub2
[23:12] <ezrafree> rww: thanks
[23:12] <trojan_spike> crickj, just from synaptic,, not DVD
[23:12] <kakashi__> how can i install a high performance cluster in ubuntu server? wich service i must install??
[23:13] <ezrafree> it looks like i can't ssh in to the box anymore either so does anyone know how i can boot it up into command line?
[23:13] <crickj> trojan_spike: i've no experience with that, sorry
[23:13] <trojan_spike> I basically just need access to ROOT login
[23:13] <dardan> dfg
[23:13] <bryhoyt> I'm trying to upgrade my Ubuntu 8.10 to the latest LTS because of a security vulnerability, and I can't upgrade the specific package (because 8.10 is so old). What's the recommended path forward?
[23:14] <dardan> cool
[23:14] <FredFlinstone> i tried setting an ip on my auto eth0, doesnt seem to help, still, - mount error(110): Connection timed out
[23:14] <ikonia> trojan_spike: why do you need root ?
[23:14] <rww> bryhoyt: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EOLUpgrades
[23:14] <FredFlinstone> now it matches my lan 192.
[23:15] <boywonder> hi i need somthing a little off topic, im running ssh only the router company says there router dont support it,any help much abliged?
[23:15] <ezrafree> is there any way to boot into console mode?
[23:15] <dardan> root
[23:15] <ikonia> FredFlinstone: are you on the network ?
[23:15] <troy> w to get that verical slash i need for a terminal command
[23:15] <bryhoyt> rww: thanks!
[23:15] <FredFlinstone> ikonia, yes
[23:15] <dardan> only type: sudo in terminal?
[23:15] <trojan_spike> ikonia, to delete my setup A/C , and run OEM 'prepare for end user'.
[23:15] <KM0201> !upgrade | bryhoyt
[23:15] <rww> troy: if you mean |, it's shift and \
[23:15] <ikonia> trojan_spike: use sudo
[23:15] <rww> on a US keyboard, anyway
[23:15] <troy> thanks rww
[23:15] <FredFlinstone> ikonia, all machne see all machines, EXCEPT one way only on ubuntu
[23:15] <ikonia> FredFlinstone: ok, so why are you changing it to dhcp
[23:15] <ikonia> FredFlinstone: one way ?
[23:16] <FredFlinstone> and i did it before in 10.04 (i started then im new)
[23:16] <trojan_spike> awww,, smart.. :) do u know the command at all.. You have me on the right track now
[23:16] <FredFlinstone> ikonia,  i changed it to manual
[23:16] <boywonder> join #ssh
[23:16] <FredFlinstone> it didnt help
[23:16] <ikonia> FredFlinstone: why ?
[23:16] <ikonia> FredFlinstone: why change things for no reason
[23:16] <rww> KM0201: For future reference, !upgrade is for releases that are still supported; !eol has the upgrade link for unsupported releases (like 8.10) :)
[23:16] <XLV> for anyone who's interested, for both the problems ubuntu 10.10 on my laptop had ( jerky MS wireless mouse response and acpi/battery info not working ), it was the bios.. i upgraded to 4GB of ram, all hell broke loose, not even windows loaded, with a message that the bios isnt fully acpi compliant, so i update upgraded bios, now ubuntu can boot without acpi=off noapic nolapic kernel parameters, so battery info works, and the mouse also works ( that one must ha
[23:16] <XLV> ve to do with better usb support or something )
[23:16] <FredFlinstone> lol
[23:17] <KM0201> rww: they both have upgrade eol links
[23:17] <FredFlinstone> because i am new and in a hurry
[23:17] <zroysch> how long is it supposed to take ubuntu one to synchronize my files? its been sitting here saying "synchronization in progress" for at least three hours. it remains at 0.0%
[23:17] <KM0201> rww: for future reference of course.. i'm not sure why you're always trying to correct me
[23:17] <FredFlinstone> trial and error due to ignorance is what you are looking for ( i think)
[23:17] <ikonia> FredFlinstone: so changing random things is not the way to fix anything
[23:17] <ikonia> FredFlinstone: what exactly are you trying to do
[23:18] <troy> rww dosent work on my keyboard is there a keymap?
[23:18] <ezrafree> i am set to init 4, is there anyway to boot into the command line somehow?
[23:18] <rww> KM0201: I don't know who you are, and I can only see me speaking to you once today :\
[23:18] <janisozaur> using 10.04, is it possible to disable ibus for a specific application?
[23:18] <FredFlinstone> mount my win shares on boot, took half an hour on 10.04
[23:18] <ikonia> ezrafree: why are you set at init 4, ubuntu only uses init2
[23:18] <trojan_spike> TY ikonia i'll search the forum
[23:18] <KM0201> rww: whatever.. like i said, the factoid i posted was perfectly relevant, and contained the info he wanted
[23:18] <rww> KM0201: Yeah, halfway down the page. We have !eol for that specific case. But whatever, do what you want *shrug*
[23:18] <ezrafree> ikonia: well whatever the number, i am set to boot straight to the gui, is there any way to get to the command line?
[23:19] <FredFlinstone> i tried the same page i used back then,  apparently a very bad plan
[23:19] <KM0201> rww: halfway down the page?.. it was 2 sentences
[23:19] <ikonia> ezrafree: disable gdm
[23:19] <FredFlinstone> who knew?
[23:19] <ikonia> FredFlinstone: what command are you using to mount one of the windows shares that is failing
[23:19] <netbeast> hello
[23:20] <rww> KM0201: Feel free to PM me if you want to continue the conversation, best not to clog up #ubuntu with extended discussion of it.
[23:20] <FredFlinstone> see i am under the gun time wise and i didnt allow for things that worked before to be broke now
[23:20] <ezrafree> how can i disable gdm during boot?
[23:20] <KM0201> rww: i didn't want to start it in the first place, you did.
[23:20] <ikonia> FredFlinstone: if you are against the clock, stop rambling and answer the questions
[23:20] <netbeast> i need some help installing a creative pccam300
[23:20] <ezrafree> my mouse and keyboard are not working and my box is booting me straight to the gui login
[23:21] <FredFlinstone> i tried exactly what is in the two pages above
[23:21] <ikonia> FredFlinstone: no, not what I asked
[23:21] <FredFlinstone> that tells you exactly what i did
[23:21] <ikonia> FredFlinstone: give me the command you are using to mount a windows share that is failing
[23:21] <ikonia> FredFlinstone: ok, you're on your own, best of luck, I'm not begging for info
[23:21] <FredFlinstone> i am tryin g to find it
[23:21] <netbeast> can anyone help me on installing a camera
[23:22] <ezrafree> FredFlinstone: if you want help no one is going to go read websites and web pages for you, you have to give them the information they ask so they can help you
[23:22] <ikonia> FredFlinstone: not interested
[23:22] <FredFlinstone> mount.cifs //asus1/MEDIA /media/MEDIA -o credentials=/.smbcredentials
[23:22] <FredFlinstone> and
[23:23] <FredFlinstone> in fstab = //asus1/MEDIA /media/MEDIA cifs credentials=/home/fred/.smbcredentials,iocharset=utf8,file_mode=0777,dir_mode=0777 0 0
[23:23] <FredFlinstone> and places / network also times out
[23:23] <ubuntu> QUESTION: How can i specify my openVPN clients to use the same DNSproxy from my nat router that the server uses and also default route?
[23:24] <FredFlinstone> i cannto type fast or find stuff fast
[23:24] <FredFlinstone> geez after all i am a newbie to ubuntu, and isnt that who you are here to help?
[23:24] <boywonder> hi i need somthing a little off topic, im running ssh only the router company says there router dont support it,any help much abliged?
[23:24] <ikonia> ubuntu: I'm not sure you can, as once you connect to the VPN you're isolated from your network
[23:25] <ikonia> boywonder: sorry, try the router support, it is offtopic here
[23:25] <boywonder> k thanks
[23:25] <ubuntu> ikonia, well how do i brows the web while connected to my openVPN server
[23:25] <ikonia> ubuntu: you won't be able to, as you'll be on the VPN network
[23:26] <ubuntu> ikonia, well the VPN is a bridge so it should be able to browse the web since the server is connected to the internet
[23:26] <FredFlinstone> so thats it?
[23:26] <ikonia> ubuntu: if it's set to route you out to the internet, you can browse it yes
[23:26] <FredFlinstone> i can leave i am undesirable?
[23:27] <ezrafree> FredFlinstone take that drama somewhere else man
[23:27] <ubuntu> ikonia, so in server.conf i should have push "rout 192.168.1.1 255.255.255.0"?
[23:27] <ezrafree> if you want help, state your problem with as much detail as possible and maybe someone will help you. save the comments and complaints to yourself, this isn't a channel for discussion it's a channel for help.
[23:28] <ikonia> ubuntu: it really depends on how your network is setup
[23:28] <FredFlinstone> ah cummon i answered the same stuff over and over for a day
[23:28] <ubuntu> ikonia, its a standard dhcp nat router
[23:28] <FredFlinstone> this version i sbroke and you guys really are lost
[23:28] <ikonia> ubuntu: as I said, it depends how the network is setup
[23:28] <ezrafree> FredFlinstone: i've spent many more then 3 days on the same problem in countless irc channels over the years
[23:28] <KM0201> FredFlinstone: maybe you'd be better off posting this on the forums....
[23:28] <ikonia> FredFlinstone: we are not lost, we are chosing not to help you any more
[23:28] <ubuntu> ikonia, well its setup with a nat router as dhcp
[23:29] <KM0201> FredFlinstone: i don't think i'm lost, Linux runs fine for me on 4 different machines
[23:29] <guampa> FredFlinstone: many tried to help you, you refuse to drop that attitude at all cost. Many have had the same probs as you and manged to solve them w/o bothering others
[23:29] <jay1> .
[23:29] <aertyu> hi
[23:29] <ikonia> ubuntu: ok, so it will need to serve an IP/route that will route you out onto the network
[23:29] <ubuntu> the router has dns proxy and its ip is 192.168.1.1
[23:29] <aertyu> what is the best mail server ?
[23:29] <FredFlinstone> lets be clear then so then i shall find another distro since you are forcing me ?
[23:29] <ikonia> aertyu: best is a tough question, the answer is what works for YOU
[23:29] <guampa> jfc
[23:29] <ikonia> FredFlinstone: if you want to
[23:29] <KM0201> FredFlinstone: well, then get another one.. i'd try Debian.. they'll love you in #debian
[23:29] <ubuntu> ikonia, how do i do that? push "route 192.168.1.1 255.255.255.0"?
[23:30] <aertyu> i don't know ? ikonia
[23:30] <ikonia> ubuntu: I don't know why you keep saying "push route"
[23:30] <FredFlinstone> i heard good things about ubuntu
[23:30] <ezrafree> how can i get to the "on screen keyboard" using my mouse?
[23:30] <ikonia> ubuntu: it depends how your network is setup
[23:30] <FredFlinstone> and freenode
[23:30] <aertyu> what are the point i have to check ? ikonia
[23:30] <FredFlinstone> but i shall not recommend you people ever
[23:30] <ezrafree> FredFlinstone: ubuntu is fantastic, but like anything else, you get out of it what you put into it
[23:30] <FrozenKnight> A little non cooperative are we FredFlinstone ? :D What can't you find fast? :)
[23:30] <ubuntu> ikonia, my network is setup with a dhcp nat router
[23:30] <ikonia> aertyu: look at sendmail/postfix/exim they are the core ones, they all have different pros/cons
[23:30] <FredFlinstone> i wish you had been more patient
[23:30] <ezrafree> FredFlinstone: all you are putting in to it right now is complaining and moaning
[23:30] <ikonia> ubuntu: that's not a network setup, that's just a device
[23:30] <ikonia> FredFlinstone: enough now
[23:30] <FredFlinstone> i tried to be with you
[23:30] <netbeast> anyone here good at installing webcams mine isnt working i have ubuntu 10.10 and a creative pc cam 300
[23:31] <ikonia> FredFlinstone: either wait for someone to help you, or be quiet
[23:31] <FredFlinstone> a day is not fast
[23:31] <ubuntu> dhcp is the setup ikonia
[23:31] <aertyu> pros/cons means ? ikonia
[23:31] <ikonia> ubuntu: that's not a setup, that's just a service
[23:31] <XLV> FredFlinstone, you can always ask for a refund, if you arent happy with services provided
[23:31] <KM0201> FredFlinstone: well, complain to the person that signs our paychecks for providing support here
[23:31] <ubuntu> what do you need to know?
[23:31] <ikonia> aertyu: eg: sendmail is VERY fast for high loads, but hard to setup/manage
[23:31] <ActionParsnip> XLV: nice
[23:32] <FredFlinstone> and i didnt complain OR  get an attitude til i was given one (you can check logs)
[23:32] <ubuntu> its setup on the ledge of the dry erase board?
[23:32] <ezrafree> how can i get to the onscreen keyboard using just my mouse? any ideas?
[23:32] <netbeast> i need some help with my webcam
[23:32] <jay1> (taking a backseat to see what kind of help this room can offer) lol ;)
[23:33] <zroysch> how long is it supposed to take ubuntu one to synchronize my files? its been sitting here saying "synchronization in progress" for at least three hours. it remains at 0.0%
[23:33] <aertyu> sendmail is it integrate with webmail ?
[23:33] <ActionParsnip> ezrafree: System -> Prefs -> Assistive tech
[23:33] <aertyu> sendmail is it integrate with webmail ? ikonia
[23:33] <ubuntu> zroysch, million years
[23:33] <ezrafree> ActionParsnip: thanks
[23:33] <rww> zroysch: If you haven't already, you might want to try the #ubuntuone channel
[23:33] <KM0201> !webcam | netbeast
[23:33] <aertyu> client
[23:33] <ActionParsnip> ezrafree: if you are smart, you can add onboard to system startup
[23:33] <zroysch> ubuntu thats helpful
[23:33] <ikonia> zroysch: it's safe to say there is a problem there
[23:33] <zroysch> rww: i just went there and asked the same question. thanks
[23:34] <crickj> zroysch: less than three hours
[23:34] <zroysch> ikonia: i would have to agree.
[23:34] <ubuntu> zroysch, it depends on how your network is setup
[23:34] <ezrafree> ActionParsnip: that is not bringing up the actual on-screen keyboard
[23:34] <zroysch> ubuntu my computer is connected to the verizon fios router/modem. i have not configured the firewall for ubuntu one.
[23:34] <FrozenKnight> Hmm, OK, in this precise are I'm a bit of a newbie. I'd like to get a usb hard drive to run "plug and play" I mean, to make it visible in "Computers" location when I plug it in.
[23:34] <FrozenKnight> (area)
[23:35] <Mr18> Is there a fix for Clock Skew?
[23:35] <ubuntu> zroysch, ikonia says thats not a setup
[23:35] <ezrafree> is there really no icon to bring up the onscreen keyboard lol
[23:35] <ezrafree> you must admit, that's kind of funny :)
[23:35] <ActionParsnip> ezrafree: i'd use a keyboard to make a shortcut on the desktop
[23:36] <ezrafree> ActionParsnip: if i had a keyboard i wouldn't be looking for the onscreen one haha
[23:36] <crickj> zroysch: I *think* ubuntu one uses https anyway, so there shouldn't be a firewall issue
[23:36] <ezrafree> i mean think about it for a second, hah
[23:36] <ubuntu> zroysch, take your amount of files sychronizing in size and divide that by the connection speed and convert to minutes or hours
[23:36] <ActionParsnip> ezrafree: not that i know of, you can always ssh in and create a shortcut that way
[23:36] <ubuntu> be sure to change filesize to bits instead of bytes
[23:37] <ezrafree> ssh seems to be broken since i installed lib-notify and it decided to remove a bunch of other packages to do so
[23:37] <FrozenKnight> Right now when I connect a USB drive and go to "Computers" location it doesn't show any drive, is that behaviour normal? And if so... is there a way to set up easy access ? :)
[23:38] <FrozenKnight> ("Computer")
[23:38] <crickj> FrozenKnight: no, it isn't normal
[23:38] <resixian> FrozenKnight: check dmesg | tail
[23:38] <FrozenKnight> Oh... that's a bummer :(
[23:38] <crickj> FrozenKnight: is the disk formatted?
[23:38] <FrozenKnight> OK, doing now
[23:38] <ubuntu> zroysch, how big are the files it is synching?
[23:38] <ezrafree> oh how i hope this is all just a bad joke
[23:39] <vipul> any one know how to  initialise the cluster
[23:39] <FrozenKnight> crickj: it's a NTFS formatted drive that I've been using for some time.
[23:39] <zroysch> ubuntu: 241.6MB
[23:39] <ActionParsnip> ezrafree: its not something I use so I'm not really a great guy to ask
[23:39] <vipul> any one know how to  initialise the cluster
[23:39] <ezrafree> how on earth has it been overlooked to think to make a way to access the on-screen keyboard from a mouse click?
[23:39] <zroysch> ubuntu: no matter how big the files are, there should be more than 0.0% transferred over 3 hours.
[23:39] <crickj> FrozenKnight: go to System -> admin -> disk utility and see if it's listed
[23:39] <ezrafree> ActionParsnip: me neither, it's not the kind of thing anyone would use... unless they needed it :)
[23:40] <vipul> any one know how to  initialise the cluster
[23:40] <resixian> FrozenKnight: could be you need 'sudo modprobe ntfs' ?
[23:40] <FrozenKnight> resixian: I did the dmesg, and it shows "nice" messages, like usb found assuming write through
[23:41] <vipul>  initialise the cluster
[23:41] <FrozenKnight> crickj: when I go to the place it isn't listed
[23:41] <FrozenKnight> resixian: I think it allocated sdc
[23:41] <liminal> im having a problem with dual  monitor support in ubuntu 10.10
[23:41] <vipul>  initialise the cluster any one know i have problem with postgreSQL
[23:41] <rww> !repeat | vipul
[23:41] <liminal> xorg is applying the wrong resolution settings to each monitor
[23:41] <FrozenKnight> resixian: wait, it detected the USB hub but not the disk attached to it
[23:41] <liminal> it gets them the wrong way around
[23:42] <netbeast> damn camera

[23:43] <FrozenKnight> resixian: nothing output
[23:43] <crickj> FrozenKnight: what's the output of lsusb?
[23:43] <ActionParsnip> ezrafree: http://cmwelsh.com/enable-on-screen-keyboard-ubuntu-lucid-lynx
[23:43] <ezrafree> ActionParsnip: yes using your initial advice i was able to get an onscreen keyboard to show up at login... now what abotu once i'm logged in though?
[23:44] <ActionParsnip> ezrafree: if you install onboard   you can click / drag the icon to the startup items thingy
[23:44] <resixian> FrozenKnight: there shuoldn't have been any output. try re-plugging your drive int

[23:45] <resixian> FrozenKnight: also, can you plug it directly into your box? might be too little power on the usb hub
[23:45] <ActionParsnip> vipul: have you asked in the postgesql channel (if there is one)
[23:45] <vipul> YES
[23:45] <vipul> I did
[23:45] <FrozenKnight> Hmm, true... trying.
[23:45] <ActionParsnip> vipul: the sensible answer would be: If nobody replys then the answer is clearly NO

[23:46] <rww> vipul: as ubottu's already told you, "if nobody knows your answer, nobody will answer you".
[23:46] <Chaos2358> i am trying to burn an iso of 10.10 but....
[23:46] <centcom> hi
[23:46] <Chaos2358> ActionParsnip,  when i select the iso it asks whether to burn as a file or burn contents
[23:46] <centcom> canada here
[23:46] <Chaos2358> ActionParsnip,  i select burn contents and it closes the application
[23:47] <FrozenKnight> resixian: tried, dmesg says it has attached a usb drive... but I can't find it in System/Admin/Disks and neither in Computers
[23:47] <KM0201> Chaos2358: what app are you using to burn it?.. there should be an option to "burn as image"
[23:47] <ActionParsnip> Chaos2358: what app are you burning with?
[23:47] <resixian> FrozenKnight: lsmod | grep ntfs shows the ntfs module?
[23:47] <Chaos2358> KM0201,  ActionParsnip the standard cd/dvd creator that comes with 10.10
[23:47] <ActionParsnip> Chaos2358: then i suggest you try gnomebaker
[23:48] <KM0201> Chaos2358: thats probably brasero... install gnomebaker (sudo apt-get install gnomebaker)
[23:48] <Chaos2358> ActionParsnip, KM0201 wow ok then thanks guys
[23:48] <FrozenKnight> resixian: and two numbers the latter 0
[23:48] <KM0201> if i wasn't as wordy as ActionParsnip i'd beat him to the punch every so often
[23:48] <KM0201> lol
[23:48] <FrozenKnight> (yes)
[23:49] <Chaos2358> KM0201, lol
[23:49] <ActionParsnip> KM0201: use terminal more and you type faster :)
[23:49] <KM0201> Chaos2358: once you install gnomebaker.. insert cd, start gnomebaker, go to tools/burn cd iso image... then go fromt here.. it's easy
[23:49] <KM0201> ActionParsnip: i type pretty fast.. just prefer GUI's rather than cli.
[23:49] <Chaos2358> KM0201, in the 3 mos ive been using ubuntu ive never had to burn a disc
[23:50] <FrozenKnight> The patience these guys must have :)
[23:50] <ezrafree> omg i can't even get to synaptic without entering my password which i can't do since i don't have a keyboard.
[23:50] <KM0201> Chaos2358: i burn data CD's on occasion w/ Gnomebaker... usually when i'm fixing someones computer and i'm retrieving pics, etc.. off a drive before reinstalling Winders
[23:51] <ActionParsnip> ezrafree: the onboard keyboard should work with gksudo etc
[23:51] <Chaos2358> KM0201, well my bro has a win7 laptop and i generally transfer files to his to burn dvds since my machine only has a dvd-r drive
[23:51] <KM0201> Chaos2358: ah... i see
[23:52] <enyawix> can you edit the sources list to go from debian to ubuntu
[23:52] <guampa> ezrafree: character map?
[23:52] <velko> enyawix, no
[23:52] <ezrafree> ActionParsnip: i can't find any way to _start_ the onscreen keyboard
[23:52] <KM0201> enyawix: you can try, but epic fail wouldn't begin to describe what would happen
[23:52] <ezrafree> guampa: that's an idea, i will give that a shot
[23:52] <rww> ezrafree: right-click the main menu applet, click Edit Menus. Click Universal Access. Click the checkbox by OnBoard. Click Close. Click Applications. Click Universal Access. Click OnBoard.
[23:53] <ActionParsnip> ezrafree: install onboard and it will have an entry in the applications menu
[23:53] <rww> onboard was installed by default for me :\
[23:53] <ActionParsnip> rww: yes it is, ezrafree listen to the smart man :)
[23:53] <FrozenKnight> resixian I just tried sudo mounting the drive to a temporary folder, and I can do it.
[23:54] <guampa> yup i have installed too, just hidden in the menu
[23:54] <ezrafree> ActionParsnip: where would this entry be?
[23:54] <rww> ezrafree: I just told you.
[23:54] <ezrafree> rrw: sorry didn't see that
[23:54] <FrozenKnight> win 16
[23:54] <ActionParsnip> ezrafree: under the accessibility options you can enable onboard and it will appear
[23:54] <netbeast> nope that didnt work
[23:55] <ActionParsnip> ezrafree: you can then even open the startup items and drag it there so it autostarts
[23:55] <resixian> FrozenKnight: must be some user permission or the automagic daemon is failing you
[23:55] <ActionParsnip> ezrafree: http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_cNuMZYzxcps/S2sr132286I/AAAAAAAAAv4/Sv-MTllbUgA/s320/Onboard-Menu.png
[23:55] <ezrafree> AHHH that's got it thanks guys :)
[23:55] <ezrafree> hopefully i can update this beast and get things working again now lol
[23:55] <rww> :)
[23:56] <FrozenKnight> resixian: I had a hunch the daemon might be failing, don't really know why, but I'll use it like this for now :) Thanks resixian ! :)
[23:56] <Two9A> Right, I've tried asking this before today, but: Does anyone know why my Hauppage Nova-T card won't allow ioctl to be opened to its frontend? http://pastebin.com/6BNHJKXN
[23:56] <ActionParsnip> ezrafree: add the item to your startup items and it'll run at login :)
[23:56] <Two9A> I've tried compiling up a new 2.6.36 kernel, the driver loads normally, but nothing doing when I dvbsnoop
[23:57] <resixian> FrozenKnight: also check here, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Mount/USB#User Privileges
[23:57] <resixian> FrozenKnight: it really should 'just work'
[23:57] <netbeast> action that installing cheese thing didnt work it doesnt detect webcam
[23:58] <ezrafree> darn, there's no "arrows" on the on screen keyboard so i can't see what the command was that got me in to this mess, but i'm pretty sure it was "sudo apt-get install lib-notify" because i was trying to fix this error i was getting in thunderbird
[23:58] <FrozenKnight> Thanks resixian :)
[23:58] <ActionParsnip> netbeast: then websearch for the 8 character hex ID of the device
[23:58] <ubas> hi to all
[23:58] <Chaos2358> ActionParsnip,  KM0201 ok gnomebaker is "frozen?" i installed with sudo, opened, tools, burn cd image, selected the iso file, hit burn, it spun up my disc and is just sitting there at"starting new track at sector:0" and its not spinning the disc..
[23:58] <aertyu> i simply made a copy from one machine to an other machine if i do ls -l on the first i got total 8512   and the second if i do ls -l i got  total 8360  is that normal ?
[23:58] <netbeast> how do i find the hex id
[23:59] <shcherbak> ezrafree: history?
[23:59] <KM0201> Chaos2358: didn't you say you were trying to burn a DVDr?... maybe you need to choose burn DVD iso?
[23:59] <itaylor57> ezrafree: i think sudo aptitidue update then sudo aptitude install willdo the trick
[23:59] <ubas> some one for a little help??? My ubuntu going crazy! i cannot open andy folder, cause file manager starts,and when open ubuntu a lot of file manager opened!
