| sillykone | Hello, I'm trying to decrypt a home folder from a previous install. I know the password to decrypt. How should I go about decrypting? | 00:00 |
|---|---|---|
| Cru_ | rusty149: how would I find that out? | 00:00 |
| error21 | go to media | 00:00 |
| sillykone | I tried following http://www.theirishpenguin.com/2010/09/26/accessing-your-encrypted-home-directory-in-ubuntu/, but I got no luck. | 00:00 |
| error21 | and chmod -R 777 disk | 00:00 |
| rusty149 | Cru_: sudo blkid | 00:00 |
| error21 | :)) | 00:00 |
| arrrghhh | so i have a korg d3200. works fine in win7, but in ubuntu i only see it in lsusb. i don't see it in sudo fdisk -l, and i don't see it in places. it's just a fat32 usb mass storage drive basically, so i'm not sure what's wrong | 00:01 |
| rusty149 | Cru_: assuming you know the device path | 00:01 |
| Cru_ | rusty149: ah, thank you. yes I do | 00:01 |
| rusty149 | Cru_: There are 6 parts to the line | 00:02 |
| error21 | what`s the problem with k3b it say succes but nothing on cd | 00:02 |
| rusty149 | Cru_: UUID=[UUID of device] is the first | 00:02 |
| Cru_ | rusty149: ok, i understand that | 00:02 |
| rusty149 | Cru_: Then the mount point (same used in mount command) | 00:03 |
| === Putr is now known as Putr|Away | ||
| Cru_ | rusty149: ok so far still | 00:03 |
| rusty149 | Cru_: Then type e.g etx4, ntfs | 00:03 |
| rusty149 | Cru_: Seperated by spaces | 00:04 |
| joentjuh | Alright, let's simplify the problem. I want to delete a 'device' from the sidebar (places pane) of nautilus. Don't really care if it's dirty and if it's really gone or not, I just don't want to see it.... I just can't figure out where this information is gathered from. | 00:04 |
| Cru_ | rusty149: i noticed theres a big amount of spaced bettween mounted location and ext4...do i need to make sure it is the same? | 00:04 |
| rusty149 | Cru_: no, thats for readability, just one will do | 00:04 |
| sillykone | Anyone on encrypted folders? I kinda want my documents back. :/ | 00:05 |
| ryant5000 | is there a text editor that constantly saves and re-reads from disk? something like "watch cat filename" | 00:05 |
| rusty149 | Cru_: What is the type? | 00:05 |
| ryant5000 | (but with editing support) | 00:05 |
| Cru_ | rusty149: and after ext4 do I need to put anything. on the 2nd line it has an errors=remount for the original hard drive | 00:05 |
| Cru_ | rusty149: ext4 | 00:05 |
| rusty149 | For parts 3, 4 & 6. defaults 0 2 | 00:06 |
| Cru_ | rusty149: this is what my code looks like right now: "uuid=(uuid #) /mnt ext4 | 00:07 |
| rusty149 | Cru_: uuid=(uuid #) /mnt ext4 defaults 0 2 | 00:08 |
| Cru_ | ah, ok | 00:08 |
| rusty149 | Cru_: Assuming you are using a real UUID | 00:08 |
| Cru_ | rusty149: sweet. save it and give it a try? | 00:08 |
| MagusOTB | Is there a way to get gnome-terminal to pass F1 through rather than opening the gnome help? | 00:08 |
| rusty149 | Cru_: Should be fine what did you use to edit it? | 00:09 |
| arrrghhh | so i have a korg d3200. works fine in win7, but in ubuntu i only see it in lsusb. i don't see it in sudo fdisk -l, and i don't see it in places. it's just a fat32 usb mass storage drive basically, so i'm not sure what's wrong | 00:09 |

| rusty149 | Cru_: Should work fine, let us know of any problems :) | 00:11 |
| rusty149 | arrrghhh: Try reconnecting it and rerunning sudo fdisk -l | 00:13 |
| arrrghhh | rusty149, i have tried that, different USB ports, different cables... nothing. | 00:13 |
| arrrghhh | always shows up in lsusb tho. | 00:13 |
| rusty149 | arrrghhh: Is it in sudo blkid | 00:14 |
| arrrghhh | rusty149, didn't know about that one 1 sec | 00:15 |
| arrrghhh | rusty149, nope, i only see ntfs swap and ext4. nothing vfat, fat32... | 00:16 |
| rusty149 | arrrghhh: Can you see it in the disk utility? | 00:19 |
| caeious | hi | 00:19 |
| racecar56 | `hi | 00:19 |
| arrrghhh | rusty149, unfortunately not. it wasn't working in windows either, until i moved it to a back usb port. i tried another pc and it worked flawlessly, so now i'm on a back usb port. | 00:20 |
| tw3 | hey all | 00:20 |
| racecar56 | hi | 00:20 |
| tw3 | i'm not sure what to do | 00:21 |
| tw3 | basically I bought an xt2 thinking it was support | 00:21 |
| tw3 | but i'm having problems with the proprietary wireless card | 00:21 |
| tw3 | i just did an update, and the proprietary broadcomm driver deactivated itself | 00:21 |
| rusty149 | arrrghhh: That is odd. It sounds like something wrong with the config/partitions (for ubuntu at least). I would recommand using GParted to view device. | 00:21 |
| gartral|p | Is it possible too hot boot a newer ubuntu from an older image? | 00:22 |
| intrader | botcity, following up - two pastebin (502454 and 5551644) - I have asked about this problem for a couple of months, | 00:22 |
| rusty149 | arrrghhh: It should be /dev/sdb if you only have 1 other drive | 00:22 |
| tw3 | and when I try ti reactivate it, it tells me the installation of the driver failed | 00:22 |
| arrrghhh | rusty149, it doesn't see it there either... it's very odd, as it does show up in lsusb. says KORG and everything. i googled a bit, and one guy had an issue with it in linux... he said he solved it with a different cable... | 00:22 |
| tw3 | and to check the jockey log | 00:22 |
| tw3 | which says: | 00:22 |
| arrrghhh | rusty149, i have several external usb hard drives plugged into this rig... that shouldn't make a difference should it? | 00:23 |
| tw3 | any ideas? | 00:23 |

| technicianTom | can anyone point me in the right direction for such a simple problem | 00:23 |

| nerxgas | where is the device manager for ubuntu netbook remix 10.10? | 00:24 |

| technicianTom | ahh | 00:24 |
| arrrghhh | rusty149, http://pastebin.com/tj8b5XcU | 00:24 |
| technicianTom | well I ran the whole chain because ./configure wasn't creating a make or makefile | 00:25 |
| technicianTom | what I used && it seemed to work fine | 00:25 |
| technicianTom | any suggestions with that? | 00:25 |
| aeon-ltd | technicianTom: you might not have been 'cd''ed into the right directory | 00:25 |
| sillykone | Doesn't anyone know how to decrypt an encrypted home directory? | 00:25 |
| aeon-ltd | technicianTom: no idea just guessing there, but normally typing each individual command to compile isn't much of a hassle anyway | 00:26 |
| usr_ | hello, how can I remove a program that I installed using "make install"??? | 00:26 |
| rusty149 | arrrghhh:There is only one there. Can you try a different port when you know works for another drive and paste the fdisk -l with it. | 00:26 |
| gartral|p | Is it possible too hot boot a newer ubuntu from an older image? | 00:26 |
| arrrghhh | usr_, you still have the source? make uninstall if so | 00:26 |
| iflema | technicianTom: try ./configure && make && sudo make install | 00:26 |
| technicianTom | aeon-ltd: no it's not. but the problem is when im in the cwd of ./configure and I run it, it doesn't creat a make and makefile in the same directory. | 00:27 |
| bastidrazor | !checkinstall | 00:27 |
| ubottu | checkinstall is a wrapper to "make install", useful for installing programs you compiled. It will create a .deb package, which will be listed in the APT database and can be uninstalled like other packages. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CheckInstall - Read the warnings at the top and bottom of that web page, and DO NOT interrupt CheckInstall while it's running! | 00:27 |
| iflema | technicianTom: with a sudo in front aswell | 00:27 |
| arrrghhh | rusty149, oh yea sorry i only pasted the line for the korg... you want all the other garbage too? | 00:27 |
| technicianTom | iflema: thanks let me try. | 00:27 |
| arrrghhh | usr_, checkinstall as suggested by bastidrazor is great as well. love deb's :D | 00:27 |
| rusty149 | arrrghhh: Is this Ubuntu or Kubuntu? | 00:28 |
| arrrghhh | rusty149, technically ubuntu studio. installed ubuntu 10.10 desktop, then the ubuntu-studio packages on top. | 00:29 |

| Sterist | rusty149 what do you mean by "in the command" ? | 00:33 |

| Sterist | rusty149 didn't do anything. are you referring to within a terminal or the update manager? lol | 00:36 |
| just_jade | rusty149 - Uumm is there a how-to that I can use? | 00:36 |
| technicianTom | iflema: yeah I feel stupid. sudo is messing me up. thanks though. | 00:37 |
| iflema | technicianTom there is also sudo -i which will run the termina as root, ctrl+D or 'exit' when finished..... | 00:37 |

| darkzay | first and search for the driver using hardware driver from system | 00:51 |
| Sterist | rusty149 just_jade http://pastebin.com/rk0mKngY | 00:51 |
| rusty149 | Arrrghhh: Looks like a power issue. Should it be USB powered? Does it connect with a cable? | 00:52 |
| darkzay | That maybe the only way you will be able to get the driver for you wifi thapope (i think) | 00:52 |
| lxg | is there a documented way to encrypt an entire home directory with ecryptfs-setup-private? the -a (as written in the man page) option doesn't exist/work | 00:52 |
| just_jade | Sterist,Rusty149 - can you "ls -als /var/lib/dpkg/lock" ? | 00:52 |
| racecar56 | Sterist: some other program must be running aptitude | 00:52 |
| ender2070 | how do I configure my mouse | 00:52 |
| racecar56 | ender2070: system > prefs > mouse | 00:53 |
| Sterist | racecar56 such as? all update related apps are terminated | 00:53 |
| arrrghhh | rusty149, well the device itself is definitely powered. it's a sound board that has a hard disk in it basically | 00:53 |
| thapope | dark can you talk to me in private chat? | 00:53 |
| cyberjunk502 | i have installed emerald theme manager but when i apply the themes it does not work and emerald theme manager exits | 00:53 |
| racecar56 | Sterist: update-manager could be doing something...do you have automatic updates enabled? | 00:53 |
| rusty149 | just_jade: Try sudo killall dpkg | 00:53 |
| racecar56 | Sterist: another thing is that if you don't run aptitude as root then it will do that | 00:53 |
| xangua | cyberjunk502: using compiz¿¿ run: emerald --replace | 00:53 |
| rusty149 | just_jade: sorry | 00:53 |
| iflema | !yay | technicianTom | 00:53 |
| ubottu | technicianTom: Glad you made it! :-) | 00:53 |
| rusty149 | Sterist: Try sudo killall dpkg | 00:54 |
| bastidrazor | !emerald | cyberjunk502 | 00:54 |
| ubottu | cyberjunk502: emerald is an obsolete window decorator for compiz. It's unsupported and unmaintained, making issues with it very hard to diagnose and fix. There are no known, supported alternatives. | 00:54 |
| just_jade | lol rusty149, np. you're a busy person! | 00:54 |
| thapope | dark where do i dl the driver if it exists | 00:54 |
| dimmac92 | i installed the libdvdread4 but it still doesn't play.. | 00:55 |
| Sterist | rusty149 that command returned nothing and the apt-update -f gave same error | 00:55 |
| rusty149 | arrrghhh: OK, on windows does it usually show as a storage device (in MyComputer/Device Manager) or is it accessed though a software app | 00:55 |
| fizy[laptop] | im new to ubuntu. why did my speaker icon turn red? | 00:56 |
| bastidrazor | fizy[laptop]: its muted | 00:56 |

| fizy[laptop] | its bee muted. why did it turn red tho? | 00:56 |
| fizy[laptop] | been* | 00:56 |
| Sterist | rusty149 would rebooting cause aptitude to be released? maybe? | 00:56 |
| cyberjunk502 | Thank you xangua | 00:56 |
| xangua | fizy[laptop]: because you mutted it | 00:56 |
| rusty149 | Sterist: Well dpkg is the same app you had a problem with during update-manager. Are there Zombie processes in Top | 00:57 |
| bastidrazor | fizy[laptop]: an application tried to play sound and it is an indicator to you to let you know its muted | 00:57 |
| detrix42 | I just installed an HP deskjet 4500. how do I set up the wifi on it??? with linux that is. | 00:57 |

| xangua | !controls | ender2070 | 00:58 |
| ubottu | ender2070: In Lucid, the minimize, maximize, and close buttons have been moved to the left side.

| Curly_Q | Does anyone here have any input as to the possibilities of using CentOS in comparison to Ubuntu or Red Hat? | 00:59 |

| SilentSpoon | is there a way to install firefox nightly from terminal? | 00:59 |
| ender2070 | curly_q centos owns | 00:59 |
| bastidrazor | ender2070: gconftool-2 --set "/apps/metacity/general/button_layout" --type string "menu:minimize,maximize,close" :type that in a terminal | 00:59 |
| Curly_Q | CentOS owns what? | 01:00 |
| sion | My Ubuntu copy has a serious problem, when I shut down the computer it won't do it properly. Everytime it starts up it performs a disk check and it comes up with a message saying that "The disk drive for /tmp is not ready yet or not present". Can anyone advise me on how to fix this? | 01:00 |
| xangua | SilentSpoon: download the nighty build and extract it anywhere | 01:00 |
| Sterist | rusty149 yes, 0 zombie | 01:00 |
| fizy[laptop] | sion i had the same problemn | 01:00 |
| ender2070 | curly_q meaning its better | 01:00 |
| SilentSpoon | xangua, yes, but if I have no browser installed can I download it through terminal? | 01:00 |
| amosk | sion: df ? | 01:00 |
| fizy[laptop] | did you partiton it yourself? | 01:00 |
| sion | df? | 01:01 |
| Sterist | rusty149 just_jade i'm going to try rebooting i'll brb | 01:01 |
| sion | What do you mean by that? | 01:01 |
| dimmac92 | with the kaffeine player it's saying that it cannot find the demux plugin for MRL "dvd:///dev/sr0". | 01:01 |
| fizy[laptop] | sion did you partiton it yourself? | 01:01 |
| rusty149 | Sterist: Yeah do a reboot. | 01:01 |
| just_jade | Sterist: (rusty149) can you delete the lock file? | 01:01 |
| amosk | SilentSpoon: using w3m | 01:01 |
| amosk | what the output of 'df' command ? | 01:01 |
| falcon1620 | Curly_Q: Ubuntu is more bleeding edge and has newer packages, CentOS is compatible but about 3-months behind Red Hat on Updates, and a few more behind with Red Hat 6. Red Hat requires a subscription for updates and to access the Red Hat network which is nice for servers. Red Hat and Cent are both older packages and RPM based vs Aptitude based. | 01:01 |
| amosk | sion: ^^ | 01:01 |
| SilentSpoon | amosk, what...? | 01:01 |
| amosk | sion: is it mounted to any point ? | 01:02 |
| sillykone | Am I screwed? | 01:02 |
| just_jade | rusty149 - would you know where grub 2 has its log files? | 01:02 |
| rusty149 | arrrghhh: OK, on windows does it usually show as a storage device (in MyComputer/Device Manager) or is it accessed though a software app | 01:02 |
| SilentSpoon | falcon1620, I beg to differ. Fedora and Arch are both more cutting edge | 01:02 |
| fizy[laptop] | sion if you made it a primary partition, not a logiccal partition, it will do that | 01:02 |
| fizy[laptop] | sion but there may be other causes | 01:02 |

| dimmac92 | pleaaase someone help! | 01:03 |
| just_jade | dimmac92 - wassup? | 01:03 |
| SilentSpoon | !ask | dimmac92 | 01:04 |
| ubottu | dimmac92: Please don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line and in the channel, so that others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) | 01:04 |
| dimmac92 | i have troubles with the dvd playback!! | 01:04 |
| Curly_Q | So the consensis is that CentOS is behind times and needs Red Hat's approval and money and updates whereas Ubuntu is up to date, FREE and this is why 1407 people are here on this channel. | 01:04 |
| just_jade | dimmac92 - ubuntu version? | 01:04 |
| SilentSpoon | Curly_Q, 1406. | 01:04 |
| dimmac92 | yes. i installed this dvdread4 or whatever but it still doesn't work | 01:04 |
| falcon1620 | LOL Ok then... The packages are newer. But Ubuntu is just as stable as Red Hat, and there are nice Server distros and support with out the older packages, that's all I was trying to point out... | 01:04 |

| Curly_Q | CentOS may have ridden the wave of goodness with Linux but it may be faltering with a lack of interest. Ubuntu seems to be flourishing here. | 01:06 |

| sion | What do youmean yes and no? | 01:08 |
| Sterist | rusty149 just_jade okay rebooting fixed the lock problem but now i'm getting: E: dpkg was interrupted, you must manually run 'sudo dpkg --configure -a' to correct the problem. | 01:08 |
| fizy[laptop] | just delete the ubuntu and swap space partiton | 01:08 |
| arrrghhh | rusty149, that's the thing, it shows up just like a usb mass storage device. fat32. sorry, i stepped away. | 01:08 |
| fizy[laptop] | any other partitions are fine | 01:08 |
| sion | Ummm, I don't understand | 01:08 |
| Sterist | rusty149 just_jade no red flags about that command ? | 01:08 |

| SilentSpoon | Curly_Q, huh? | 01:08 |

| fizy[laptop] | yes delete ubuntu | 01:08 |
| Curly_Q | I have tried just about every Linux Distro. Also BSD as well. | 01:08 |

| rusty149 | arrrghhh: Are you saying it works on Ubuntu in the back ports? | 01:09 |
| sion | Oh poo!!!! | 01:09 |
| Curly_Q | Lots of folks prefer Debian or BSD over Red Hat or Ubuntu. | 01:09 |

| r3l1c | sion yes | 01:16 |

Everytime it starts up it performs a disk check and it comes up with a message saying that "The disk drive for /tmp is not ready yet or not present".

| r3l1c | whattodo: elaborate | 01:17 |
| sion | Can't update the version of ubuntu as there is no /tmp folder | 01:17 |
| xangua | sion: did you manually make partitions for ubuntu¿¿ | 01:17 |
| Curly_Q | Sion, you can do anything with Ubuntu and re-install it over and over again many times without problems. | 01:17 |
| r3l1c | sion: give me the output of the command "cat /etc/fstab" | 01:17 |
| sion | It's causing the computer to freeze and crash frequently | 01:18 |
| WhatToDo | r31l1c: when i put in a windows boot cd, i cant boot from it and in ubuntu my cd drive disappears. however, it boots from an ubuntu cd and the drive stays there | 01:18 |
| Curly_Q | Sion updating has nothing to do with installation.j | 01:18 |
| sion | no such file directory | 01:18 |

| WhatToDo | r31l1c: yeah, no problem. i got plenty of time :D | 01:19 |
| Curly_Q | Stop thinking about Temp folders. If you re-install an OS or Kernel or anything the Temp folders are deleted by default. | 01:20 |

| Scunizi | What do I use to uncompress a windows .exe file.. I'm looking for a color monitor profile, file.. ie icc or similar. | 01:21 |
| Curly_Q | SilentSpoon, true, but it all began with Microsoft's MRU MRUI and Tempfiles and folders. Just to make the OS run faster. | 01:21 |
| r3l1c | sion: run the command "sudo cat /etc/fstab" in the terminal and give me the output | 01:21 |
| sion | Curly_Q There definitely are /tmp directories in ubuntu, look in your folders and you'll find one guaranteed | 01:21 |

| sion | after I did it it came up with cat in green writing | 01:25 |
| Curly_Q | I understand that /tmp or /Temp or C:\Tmp or anything like that is just a directory with files in it. | 01:25 |
| rusty149 | Scunizi: Have you tried archive manager? | 01:25 |
| WhatToDo | r3l1c: extremely | 01:25 |

| r3l1c | WhatToDo: put the cd in and type "sudo fdisk -l" let me know if that mentions your cd drive | 01:26 |
| Curly_Q | A directory is nothing but a Tree of the Root Directory which allocates any sub-directory which is part of ROOT which is part of the TREE of the scheme of the Root Process. | 01:26 |
| Scunizi | rusty149: archive manager? no.. it doesn't even give that option on a right mouse click.. suppose I could try from cli but if AM recognized .exe then the option would be there. | 01:26 |

| r3l1c | nico_: You are the device manager! | 01:27 |
| rusty149 | r3l1c: current directory should not effect that command | 01:27 |
| r3l1c | :-D | 01:28 |
| Scunizi | rusty149: tried.. nothing listed in that option for this file type.. It's totally blank.. nothing in the dropdown. | 01:28 |
| aeon-ltd | nico_: no, but something like lsusb or lspci should find it | 01:28 |
| WhatToDo | r3l1c: nope, just the hdd | 01:28 |
| r3l1c | rusty149: his command was not found "$PATH is messed up I think" | 01:28 |

| ar0n | adobe flash labs website has a 10.2 32bit versions that supposedly supports 64bit, but its only a .tar with one file...no instructions | 01:29 |
| rusty149 | r3l1c: Oh you mean sudo /bin/cat /etc/fstab | 01:29 |
| Curly_Q | Nico as long as you are Superuser or Root acces you have similar if not the same authority as Windows Device Manager. | 01:29 |
| r3l1c | rusty149: that will work too but is pwd was /bin | 01:29 |

| Curly_Q | Nico the only difference between Windows Root and Ubuntu Root is that Ubuntu Root needs to be a little bit more cautious and asks for a further authentication to make changes in the Root Directory. | 01:31 |

| rusty149 | arrrghhh: How big is the drive? | 01:36 |
| Curly_Q | EEMPHASISS, perhaps the DVD disk is not compatible with the PAL System software. | 01:37 |
| arrrghhh | rusty149, i think it's an 80gb originally... is that important? | 01:37 |
| arrrghhh | rusty149, yup 80gb. | 01:38 |
| EEMPHASISS | Curly_Q: original disk is PAL - PAL is a format for TV Receivers | 01:38 |
| arrrghhh | usb has 8.0gb. | 01:38 |
| Curly_Q | Most Disks are NTSC though. | 01:38 |
| arrrghhh | rusty149, it's sliced into 5 partitions | 01:38 |

| rusty149 | arrrghhh: are they all fat32 | 01:39 |
| EEMPHASISS | Curly_Q: original disk is PAL format, 6.4 GB. Dvd95 produced a 4.4 GB disk: this disk is rejected by PS2 as "TV system doesn't match." | 01:40 |
| Lantchips | Jwiapb I like pidgeon I think its called :) | 01:40 |
| cannonfodder | hey you guys...i just set up a shared folder...how can i find it from another ubuntu computer | 01:40 |
| arrrghhh | rusty149, well 4 partitions are for the korg basically. there's an 8gb partition for fat32 transferring between the device and computers. | 01:40 |
| EEMPHASISS | cannonfodder: Places / Network. | 01:41 |
| ar0n | is it not possible to extract files via gnome, to /usr/lib/* ? | 01:42 |
| ar0n | must terminal be used? | 01:42 |
| cannonfodder | EEMPHASISS im on netbook edition 10.04 there is no "Places" | 01:42 |
| rusty149 | arrrghhh: well, if thats the case then at leaset 2 of them are on an extended partition. | 01:42 |
| Curly_Q | EEMPHASISS it may be just a simple disk replacement such as a DVD-R -N or a Read Write issue and not a software issue. | 01:43 |
| arrrghhh | rusty149, the computer should never see the four partitions. it should only see the one fat32. as i understand it, the four partitions are basically raw and the korg uses it for time-based storage. | 01:43 |

| piercedwater | Is there a calendar program for linux/Ubuntu that will auto e-mail? | 01:45 |
| rusty149 | rusty149: Try booting a live cd/usb and connecting only the Korg drive. Then open with GParted. The computer should see them depending on the file system. Windows usually ignores file systems because it can not read them. But ubuntu should be able to. Which is fine. | 01:45 |

| billybigrigger | ssh isn't recommended but i can't think of any other way | 01:46 |

| zaery | I've got an external hard drive, that spins up when i plug it in, but i can't actually do anything with it, because everything thinks it's busy or exclusively mounted by another program. | 01:47 |
| Curly_Q | SSH is always recommended.. | 01:47 |
| zaery | fsck thinks it's exclusively mounted, disk utility thinks it's busy..... | 01:47 |
| bastidrazor | billybigrigger: screen and ssh. screen will keep all ssh connections alive even if you lose connection | 01:47 |
| arrrghhh | rusty149, hrm... ok. i can try on my laptop i guess, see if there's a difference. when it recognized it on my lappy i decided to try the back usb ports... | 01:48 |

| ar0n | Guest71017, have you made sujre you installed restricted drivers | 01:58 |
| jeffreyf | detrix42: Assign the printer a static IP. Something below DHCP pool. For my linksys, I gave the printer 192.168.1.10. Then you will ALAWAYS know the IP | 01:58 |
| jeffreyf | detrix42: Then find the printer at 192.168.1.10 | 01:59 |
| SilentSpoon | firefox 4 fps: 47. Chromium fps: 21 | 01:59 |
| detrix42 | Jeffreyf: I have seen no way to set the printer to a static ip. | 01:59 |
| * Snump puts his networked printers at 192.168.1.200 and above. | 02:00 | |
| detrix42 | jeffreyf: I will check again | 02:00 |
| zaery | Snump: stress, you might have to apt-get it, then adjust the settings to actually put it at full potential | 02:00 |
| jeffreyf | detrix42: You should have the option in the panel to set the IP. You shouldn't need to worry about the gateway, but that should be 102.168.1.1 | 02:00 |
| racecar56 | Snump: cpuburn | 02:00 |
| jeffreyf | detrix42: oops 192.168.1.1 | 02:00 |
| Guest71017 | ar0n, I installed the restricted drivers but then I had problems with mouse lag and different graphical glitches | 02:00 |
| racecar56 | Snump: the command afterwards would be burnP6 | 02:00 |
| Snump | zaery: anything that comes with the defauly live USB? The machine doesn't have a hard drive not is it networked. Its a laptop and its completely apart, connected to an externam monitor to diagnose. | 02:01 |
| racecar56 | Snump: you can apt-get install cpuburn can you? | 02:01 |

| ar0n | what my issue is on some webpages when i scroll down it will cause whatever flash window thats open to like flash and restart sometmes | 02:01 |
| Snump | hmm... | 02:01 |
| racecar56 | Snump: then go grab a fire extinguisher | 02:02 |
| jeffreyf | Snump: For the standard linksys, that should be ok. I'm running DD-WRT, which may use that IP as it doesn't assign sequentially like the linksys firmware does | 02:02 |
| Snump | wait a sec... I can use the ethernet port. duh... hold on a sec,. | 02:02 |

| adriankeks | racecar56, im using 10.10 i think it is a little less ironed out | 02:13 |
| racecar56 | bezao: y/w | 02:13 |
| detrix42 | jeffreyf: yes...one sec. | 02:13 |
| adriankeks | racecar56: do you know where i can go that could lead me in the right direction because i really like the netbook interface? | 02:14 |
| racecar56 | adriankeks: i don't really know what to tell you but it may be an OS-version problem (a bug in ubuntu) | 02:14 |
| technicianTom | iflema: you there? | 02:14 |
| detrix42 | jeffreyf: thanks, its working I found the IP info. | 02:15 |
| jeffreyf | detrix42: Cool! Good luck. | 02:15 |
| racecar56 | adriankeks: does it happen anywhere else (such as some other desktop environment...if you've tried that)? | 02:15 |
| Pr0ph3t | I still haven't managed to get my 3G modem to work | 02:15 |
| jain0709 | please help .. downloading flv videos from ubuntu | 02:16 |
| adriankeks | racecar56: no desktop version works great with either driver | 02:16 |
| racecar56 | adriankeks: ok | 02:16 |
| bazhang | jain0709, firefox plugin download helper | 02:16 |
| racecar56 | adriankeks: then it could be a netbook edition glitch | 02:16 |
| bezao | racecar56 can i erase /etc/resolv.conf, does ubuntu will redo it later? | 02:16 |
| racecar56 | bezao: i don't know but you could try moving it to /etc/resolv.conf.old or something and see if it comes back | 02:17 |
| Curly_Q | Stealthc give it a try, | 02:17 |
| bezao | racecar56 ok, let me try :D | 02:17 |
| adriankeks | racecar56: perhaps...maybe i should just wait until it fixes itself with an update...lol | 02:17 |
| sacarlson | bezao: it will redo /tec/resolv.conf if you do a dhclient | 02:17 |
| racecar56 | adriankeks: or maybe it could be a special "feature" in the netbook edition that brings a glitch..and yes, that may help | 02:18 |
| bezao | sacarlson cool, thanks | 02:18 |
| adriankeks | racecar56: i've been searching the forums and i find people with the same problems but no solutions as of yet | 02:18 |
| racecar56 | adriankeks: ok...i hope you can find a solution one way or another | 02:19 |
| adriankeks | racecar56: all I've tried was both drivers...i dont really know what else to do from there | 02:19 |
| racecar56 | adriankeks: do you have the same GPU that i do? maybe it's a GPU model specific problem | 02:20 |

| Cpt_Zyph | hey guys im still learning linux etc etc .. i just got the netbook ubuntu installed on my dell mini and its working pretty good.. | 02:22 |
| stealthc | give what a try curly_q.? | 02:22 |
| Rolaulten | sorry, now stuck not 'not stuck' | 02:22 |
| Cpt_Zyph | sometimes it freezes on full screen video play back.. it can | 02:22 |
| racecar56 | adriankeks: don't have any experience with anything like that except for a desktop radeon hd 2400 pro which was glitchy in 8.X-ish ubuntu versions but is fine these days | 02:23 |
| Cpt_Zyph | cant go to sleep without lock up or unable to wake and im just wondernig how to start trouble shooting and fine tuning with ubuntu | 02:23 |

| Phoenix__ | Hey, can someone help me mount my external USB hard drive in /etc/fstab? | 02:23 |
| adriankeks | racecar56: I'm still kind of a noob in ubuntu can u point me in the right direction to perhaps fix this problem | 02:24 |
| stealthc | it is not associating the file correctly, but I don't get that since it can run the file when it is on my desktop | 02:24 |

| Phoenix__ | psycho_oreos, i can't find out the drive information with fdisk -l either :S? | 02:24 |
| Phoenix__ | So I don't know what to mount | 02:24 |
| racecar56 | adriankeks: you could try doing this in a console: sudo service gdm stop && sudo X -configure && sudo service gdm start | 02:24 |
| Cpt_Zyph | can anyone help me with that or are these known issues? | 02:24 |
| racecar56 | adriankeks: in the case of fglrx, run aticonfig --initial before sudo service gdm start | 02:25 |

| Idol_Mind | i've got 10.10 x64 installed on a 640GB drive and want to move it to an 80GB SSD, what do I need to do? | 02:25 |
| xtc_ | hi | 02:25 |
| psycho_oreos | Phoenix__, you can but you probably need root privileges to do that | 02:25 |
| Phoenix__ | psycho_oreos, you're right I just figured that out | 02:25 |
| xtc_ | how can i make a video my desktop ? what is the program name ? | 02:25 |
| Phoenix__ | everythings good now thanks | 02:25 |
| sacarlson | duke_: it apears you have a script with two functions that are never run, see http://www.cyberciti.biz/faq/bash-shell-script-function-examples/ | 02:26 |
| psycho_oreos | Phoenix__, nw | 02:26 |
| Idol_Mind | xtc_, I use piviti | 02:26 |
| aeon-ltd | Idol_Mind: do you have less than 80gb worth of ubuntu stuff? | 02:26 |
| Cpt_Zyph | so no good reads on hwo to trouble shoot issues with ubuntu for those of us still learning?? | 02:26 |
| stealthc | under add application box it won't let me specify something to run the .desktop file | 02:26 |
| xtc_ | Idol_Mind: Thank you | 02:26 |
| stealthc | this is really gay. Can anybody figure this out? | 02:26 |
| stealthc | I set it to autorun prompt... which always fails | 02:26 |
| xtc_ | i try out now piviti | 02:26 |
| xtc_ | ;) | 02:26 |
| Idol_Mind | aeon-ltd, yes, but I've got huge partitions setup (was trying to utilize whole disk) | 02:26 |
| xtc_ | br right back ;) | 02:27 |
| jeffreyf | Anyone know of a Linux/DansGuardian APPLIANCE for INLINE installation (2 nics)? | 02:27 |
| stealthc | say it cannot find autorun program | 02:27 |
| adriankeks | racecar56: sorry but do i enter sudo service gdm stop && sudo X -configure && sudo service gdm start as 3 different commands or copy paste the whole thing | 02:27 |
| aeon-ltd | Idol_Mind: then i would shrink the ubuntu partitions down to less than 80gb, and clonezilla them | 02:27 |
| racecar56 | adriankeks: you enter all of that in one line | 02:27 |
| tim167 | hello, i want to boot a HP 8710p from my bootable usb disk, a usb3 device, but it won't show up in boot menu, any ideas ? | 02:27 |
| aeon-ltd | Idol_Mind: don't quote me on 100% smoothness of this process | 02:27 |
| racecar56 | adriankeks: i put &&'s because i didn't want to say too many lines here | 02:27 |
| Idol_Mind | aeon-ltd, do I need to worry about "fragmentation" like you do with windows? | 02:28 |
| adriankeks | racecar56: k...thanks | 02:28 |
| duke_ | what is this function deklaration for in the bash file ... its giving me no output | 02:28 |
| aeon-ltd | Idol_Mind: probably not, ask in the channel if anyone has done something like this before | 02:28 |
| fedxc | Nobody on a mac? I can't boot from my usb drive, I tried the instructions on the main ubuntu site. | 02:28 |
| xtc_ | Idol_Mind: i type in consol sudo apt-get install piviti but the packet not found | 02:29 |

| xtc_ | i typed wrong :S | 02:29 |
| xtc_ | sorry | 02:29 |
| sacarlson | duke_: I'm not sure what your function should do, seems to be setup to do nothing | 02:29 |
| sacarlson | duke_: maybe it's a source script? | 02:30 |
| duke_ | will this work if i create a ~/.bashrc file and fill http://pastebin.com/SJXsVUJa | 02:30 |
| migtei | test | 02:31 |
| sacarlson | duke_: I think if you source the script it will add two functions to your shell session | 02:32 |
| Cpt_Zyph | so can anyone point me in some noobie directions here on how to examine my current ubuntu install and see if there is any fine tuning performance changes i can make or anything along them lines?? | 02:32 |
| duke_ | i cant use this funvtions i tried | 02:32 |

| Cpt_Zyph | bazhang i see.. was not sure that would cause problems.. and uninstall or disable it? | 02:35 |
| Cpt_Zyph | thank you | 02:35 |
| sacarlson | duke_: I would read the instrutions where you got it but from reading what it does you would source nameofyourscript and then you could use the added functions setdb and whichdb | 02:35 |
| racecar56 | adriankeks: sometimes switching terminals may freeze your system, it shouldn't cause any harm | 02:35 |
| bazhang | Cpt_Zyph, just disable, fusion-icon (iirc) is a one-click panel disabler of that | 02:35 |

| sacarlson | duke_: setup an oracle data base? do you already have the server setup? | 02:38 |

| tim167 | fedxc: from what I remember it should be possible to boot your mac from cdrom, and from there you can redirect it to the usb drive | 02:42 |

| fedxc | tim167: yes you can even press 'alt' key to select where to boot from. My problem is the usb is not recognized as a bootable drive... | 02:44 |
| fedxc | thanks for all the links everyone! Im reading :) | 02:44 |
| rusty149 | zaery: reconnect device | 02:44 |
| rusty149 | zaery: sudo sync && sudo swapoff /dev/sdc2 && sudo umount /dev/sdc1 | 02:45 |
| zaery | now the drive is physically disconnected, but gparted and disk utility still "see" it | 02:46 |
| tim167 | fedxc: well yes, in my experience , usb has always seemed impossible to boot from on a mac, lame! :p but as i said, with a detour to CDrom, there should be a way to do it, though i never tried it myself | 02:46 |
| rusty149 | zaery: reconnect it and then run the last commands I said | 02:46 |
| tim167 | fedxc: how about running ubuntu inside OSX in a virtual machine? | 02:46 |
| fedxc | tim167: will try that right now (boot cd first). About virtual machine: I need the real thing for testing proposes | 02:47 |

| earwigs | people still use firewire? | 02:48 |
| dnk | as far as i looked there was nothing usefull in that guide might be me have no clue on what im missing but just CANNOT seem to get it enabled and as far as i know and got told my wireless was suppourted | 02:48 |
| rusty149 | earwigs: FireWire is still better than USB so Yes people use it | 02:49 |
| matlock | Yes, you can boot any of the Intel Macs from a USB drive | 02:49 |
| tim167 | actually I have a similar problem right now; a Hp 8710p laptop that won't recognize a USB3 disk to boot from... | 02:49 |
| matlock | In the past, no Mac could boot OS X from a USB drive. That changed with the Intel Macs, and USB certainly boots an Intel Mac. But, you must change the type of partition | 02:49 |
| dnk | so ill try again any other guides or help u can give is much apreciatet ;P ANYONE know hwo to activate the darn wireless on my hp pavilion ? | 02:50 |
| matlock | it needs to be a GUID partition table | 02:50 |
| matlock | on the usb | 02:50 |
| matlock | and the partition heeds to be mac os extended | 02:50 |

When I restarted, it no longer permits me to enter the gui, and any time I try to do much of anything I get an error with shared libraries and libatk-1.0.so.0 having an invalid ELF header. When trying to reinstall it, however, apt-get and aptitude both say there is no such file available. | 02:58 |

| pienkie | hi guys. I've started a remote server installation & initiated the format of a 1 TB HDD, which will take a *looooooong* time. I'm now off-site & have connected OK (installer@xxxxxx), & I d like to confirm that the format had completed before continuing with the installation. How can I check this, please? | 03:26 |
| Ganymede | Obscure bug: While using x11vnc on my GDM session with fglrx drivers on Lucid...sometimes Xorg freezes and takes up 100%...not even switching VT fixes it. It can only be fixed by a reboot. Anyone else notice this? | 03:26 |
| Ganymede | I feel like this is an fglrx bug because the screen NEVER refreshes once the bug is hit so I'm guessing the driver or Xorg hit an infinite loop or something. | 03:26 |
| sacarlson | pankaj you can link skype to pidgin that has webcam support | 03:26 |
| pankaj | how to do that :o | 03:26 |

| smw | pankaj, ask in the mailing list about making package requests. Or you can make one yourself and try to admit it. | 03:27 |

| pienkie | netsurf3: connect to the server (installer@remote.server) & select the "expert" option again (I have selected & defined the "remote-console" option during earlier section). I've set up numerous servers (baremetal & vm's) on my LAN in the past. I'm busy with a bigger server now, & have better things to do on a Sunday afternoon than sit on-site & watch a excruciatingy slow progress bar | 03:32 |
| zaery | Larriv: go to system>preferences>monitors | 03:33 |
| hiexpo | Larriv, you probally need to go inti xconfig and turn it on | 03:33 |
| netsurf3 | pienkie, fair enough point my only reason of inquiry would be that if you were able to run the partitoner manually you could do partitionprocess && wall "partitinong complete" it would print to all tty connected to that box | 03:34 |
| arysoetarto | have a problem with intel gma 3150 | 03:34 |

| matlock | saying you have a problem doesn't give us any clue how to solve it. | 03:36 |
| pienkie | netsurf3: yea. if I did the install "by hand, I would've done a `… && touch /tmp/done.alert. good news, though: I've just re-accessed the disk/partion section of the installer & have sucsesfully attached to the format progress :D | 03:36 |

| breadcrumb | pankaj, being that it's saturday evening (in north america), you might find some channels to be quiet | 03:47 |
| Digistras | i was runnung aircrack-ng | 03:47 |

| matlock | WhatToDo> what exactly is the issue? | 03:47 |
| hiexpo | Larriv, ok there ya go | 03:48 |
| Digistras | how do u know if the app is causing problem? how can it not be ubuntu? | 03:48 |
| pankaj | some person in this room was claiming to have audio video in pidgin | 03:48 |
| jeffreyf | Digistras:I believe that would be a CPU intensive program. hiexpo would be right....But it may be just that your system is extremely busy, not hung up. | 03:48 |
| pankaj | why can't that person tell me how he did it if he has time that is | 03:48 |
| magik- | 2 NIC setup (eth0/eth1) internet/local computers . IP Tables is allowing my desktop to communicate with the internet with STEAM chat client.. but I can't connect to anything else (irc,web,etc) | 03:48 |
| WhatToDo | matlock: i have a windows boot disk for vista on a dvd and it wont recognize my entire cd/dvd drive if i put the dvd in while ubuntu is running and won;t boot if i boot from cd from BIOS. However, it will boot from a CD of ubuntu or windows xp | 03:49 |
| jallii | i am running ubuntu 10.04 lts on an acer laptop. Got the wireless network working , but would like to use occasionally with huawei E169 usb modem. have installed usb-modeswitch with 1.1.0.2 data | 03:49 |

| matlock | WhatToDo> sounds to me like the disk is corrupt | 03:49 |
| pankaj | jallii i am using huawei modem right now in ubuntu 10.10 | 03:49 |
| jallii | modeswitch does not seem to work | 03:49 |
| matlock | WhatToDo> can you burn another?? this time burn at slowest speed? | 03:49 |
| WhatToDo | matloc: it plays and burns DVDs perfectly fine | 03:50 |
| pankaj | you just have to plug it in and in the network options icon you right click preferences | 03:50 |
| pankaj | and enable mobile broadband | 03:50 |
| hiexpo | Larriv, yes i had that problem before play with the settings to find the right one | 03:50 |
| WhatToDo | matlock: i guess so the max burn speed is 4x but i could go slower i suppose | 03:50 |
| Larriv | r00t4rd3d: nothing hapen | 03:50 |
| matlock | WhatToDo> what kind of dvd did you burn it on? | 03:50 |
| matlock | +r -r | 03:50 |
| matlock | ? | 03:50 |
| WhatToDo | matlock: dvd-rw | 03:50 |
| WhatToDo | should i get dvd-r | 03:50 |
| jallii | can make the connection, but appmodemlet cannot find | 03:50 |
| LeoBiz | Larriv: you may have to edit your xorg.conf file | 03:50 |
| WhatToDo | or maybe dvd+r | 03:50 |
| WhatToDo | perhaps the rewritable feature is messing it up? | 03:50 |
| matlock | that could be | 03:51 |
| jallii | sorry cannot find modem | 03:51 |
| r3l1c1 | WhatToDo: sounds like it | 03:51 |
| matlock | or maybe it wasn't properly formatted | 03:51 |
| WhatToDo | raaaaaaaah | 03:51 |
| Larriv | hiexpo: is there a possible way to know the exactly have the right setting | 03:51 |
| pankaj | ubuntu 10.10 is quite user friendly | 03:51 |
| WhatToDo | would it matter if i got +r or -r | 03:51 |
| Larriv | LeoBiz: how do i do that | 03:51 |
| r00t4rd3d | Larriv, while viewing on your TV , lower the resolution to very low , like 800x600 , then try switching , FN+F5 | 03:51 |
| pankaj | you hardly need to use the command prompt its very good for lay people like me | 03:51 |
| magik- | WTF... ip tables is allowing oone of my local computers to PING GOOGLE but I can't browse the web?! | 03:51 |
| matlock | WhatToDo> depends on the brand of disk, and the brand of burner. | 03:52 |
| mhahe | hey guys using a macbook pro 6,2 sound aint working on ubuntu 10.10.. how do i get it to work? | 03:52 |
| WhatToDo | matlock: they're staples brand and i have no clue about the drive | 03:52 |
| matlock | if your drive recognizes it try it, and verify after burning | 03:52 |
| matlock | if it recognizes it after burning, your probably good to go | 03:52 |
| Larriv | r00t4rd3d: you want me to lower the resolution off my laptop screen | 03:52 |
| WhatToDo | matlock: my drive will recognize any blank dvd, but wont boot from one | 03:52 |
| r00t4rd3d | Larriv, yes | 03:52 |
| bonjoyee | matlock: if you have the iso..check the md5sum with this disc | 03:52 |
| matlock | or pump the iso out to a usb drive | 03:53 |
| bonjoyee | matlock: sorry..wrong number;) | 03:53 |
| r00t4rd3d | Larriv, in System , Preferences , Monitor | 03:53 |
| matlock | then you can make the usb bootable | 03:53 |
| matlock | lol | 03:53 |
| bonjoyee | WhatToDo: if you have the iso..check the md5sum with this disc | 03:53 |
| WhatToDo | alright what program do i use? | 03:53 |
| r3l1c1 | magik-: iptablets -L | 03:54 |
| matlock | md5sum | 03:54 |
| r3l1c1 | md5sum "name of file" | 03:54 |
| bonjoyee | WhatToDo: before burning a new disk..check the md5sum.. | 03:54 |
| LeoBiz | Larriv: the file should be located in /etc/x11/ you have to have super user rights to edit and I would suggest making a copy first but if you have the nvidia driver installed you should be able to get it to work by adding a couple of lines | 03:54 |
| r00t4rd3d | Larriv, looking at the manual for that laptop the max resolution is 1280 x 800 | 03:54 |
| r00t4rd3d | anything higher and it will be out of bounds | 03:54 |
| WhatToDo | ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh i formatted the drive damnit redownlaod time | 03:55 |
| Larriv | r00t4rd3d: ive just tryed what you said and nothing work, there is still no signal to my vga output | 03:55 |
| matlock | Larriv> are you using 10.10? | 03:55 |
| Larriv | matlock: yes | 03:55 |
| matlock | ubuntu chooses best possible res for your monitor | 03:55 |
| matlock | Larriv> ^^ | 03:55 |
| matlock | nvidia or ati? | 03:56 |
| r00t4rd3d | Larriv, did you monitor ever work ? | 03:56 |
| magik- | r3l1c1: Chain INPUT (policy ACCEPT) has nothing | FORWARD has ACCEPT all -- anywhere anywhere state RELATED,ESTABLISHED | 03:56 |
| BlackWeb | does anyone now how you'd search your packages to find the ones that are not installed all the way, | 03:56 |
| magik- | ACCEPT all -- anywhere anywhere (again in FORWARD) then in OUTPUT nothing | 03:56 |
| BlackWeb | I run the dpkg -l command and get all of them but wondering if theres a faster way | 03:56 |
| bazhang | BlackWeb, filter broken packages in synaptic | 03:57 |
| Larriv | r00t4rd3d: yes i was on windows7 befor and it was working whit the flatscreen, and now when the computer start my vga output work but when ubuntu start there is no more signal to the vga output | 03:57 |
| BlackWeb | only problem is I was trying to get a package that was in karmic and I'm running intrepid and that wants to uninstall everything | 03:57 |
| ksmithrules | Does anyone know where I can get Netbook Remix? | 03:57 |
| bazhang | BlackWeb, that is never a good idea. its fully unsupported and guaranteed to break things | 03:58 |
| ksmithrules | I am on the Netbook site of Ubuntu, and I want the one with Unity. | 03:58 |
| ksmithrules | But I don't see it | 03:58 |
| bazhang | ksmithrules, the alpha? #ubuntu+1 or did you mean 10.10 | 03:58 |
| r00t4rd3d | Larriv, switch to the laptop monitor and hold down FN+Right arrow key | 03:58 |
| BlackWeb | lol ya, so trying to uninstall just the broken packages themselves, and trying to locate them all | 03:58 |
| Razbo | ksmithrules; 10.10 Netbook runs Unity | 03:59 |
| bazhang | BlackWeb, no telling what other damage has been done. | 03:59 |
| ksmithrules | bazhang - I have "ubuntu-10.10-netbook-i386.iso" | 03:59 |
| ksmithrules | I installed it, and it boot up into normal Ubuntu? | 03:59 |
| bazhang | ksmithrules, thats it | 03:59 |
| BlackWeb | I had it go to a txt file by dpkg -l > textfile.txt but its a big list | 03:59 |
| BlackWeb | is my best bet just reinstalling | 04:00 |
| BlackWeb | the os | 04:00 |
| bazhang | BlackWeb, yes | 04:00 |
| jeeves_ | has anyone here got a ZTE G3 modem working? Mine was working untill the last update (out of the box), now, it claims to be connecting, the modem drops to GPRS mode, then fails the connect | 04:00 |
| Razbo | if your video card does not fully support 3d in linux, you will not get unity | 04:00 |
| rusty149 | ksmithrules: Use md5sum to check your .iso image | 04:00 |
| eoss | hello i am trying to compile c code in ubuntu, when i compile it and type the name of the new executable it says command not found? | 04:00 |
| Larriv | r00t4rd3d: the brightness is already at full | 04:00 |
| bonjoyee | BlackWeb: how many packages broken? | 04:00 |
| BlackWeb | alrighty Thanks for your help, Have a long wait a head | 04:00 |
| BlackWeb | 8 | 04:00 |
| r00t4rd3d | how about FN+F6 | 04:00 |
| ksmithrules | rusty: Why woudl I need to check the md5? | 04:00 |
| bazhang | BlackWeb, mixing distro version packages never ends well | 04:00 |
| rusty149 | eoss: type the full file path | 04:00 |
| eoss | that is going to be annoying thx | 04:01 |
| matlock | http://online.wsj.com/article/SB10001424052748704415104576065641376054226.html << FBI asks software vendors in Silicon Valley for Backdoors | 04:01 |
| magik- | So when i do iptables -L what should i see there for iptables to play router | 04:01 |
| bazhang | matlock, offtopic dont paste here | 04:01 |
| Larriv | r00t4rd3d: that have shut down my laptop screen | 04:01 |
| rusty149 | eoss: Then cd to directory and use ./filename.c | 04:01 |
| BlackWeb | but just curious is there a way to specify the ones that are broken from the dpkg -l command | 04:01 |
| rusty149 | eoss: . is the current directory | 04:02 |
| eoss | ok thanks | 04:02 |
| BlackWeb | when looking at the text file then to the far left theres ii on most of packages | 04:02 |
| bonjoyee | BlackWeb: what does "sudo apt-get install -f" say? | 04:02 |
| BlackWeb | but the ones i notice that are broken are iu | 04:02 |
| ksmithrules | Anyone know how ubuntu-10.10-netbook-i386.iso can get into the Unity desktop? | 04:02 |
| BlackWeb | it says that its gonna install the broken packages along with all my other packages to | 04:02 |
| BlackWeb | sorry uninstall | 04:02 |
| kyo | hello | 04:03 |
| bonjoyee | BlackWeb: how many packages from 8.10 you installed in 9.10? | 04:03 |
| BlackWeb | then when I tried uninstalling the specific packages that are broken then its telling me that its need by my other packages which have been on there for ever | 04:03 |
| Razbo | ksmithrules, after installing, check for latest hardware drivers, if none are available, then your system may not support Unity Desktop | 04:03 |
| Larriv | r00t4rd3d: when my laptop screen was off, nothing happened to the vga output | 04:04 |
| BlackWeb | I installed 8 packages into 8.10 from karmic | 04:04 |
| BlackWeb | was trying to install the calibre package | 04:04 |
| bazhang | BlackWeb, backup and reinstall | 04:04 |
| BlackWeb | to convert ebooks | 04:04 |
| matlock | Larriv> you happen to have a vom?? | 04:04 |
| BlackWeb | Alrighty, Thanks for your helps :) | 04:04 |
| Stinkypants | The ubuntu installer crapped out on me during installation (it encountered an error and haulted installation, had to force reboot). My windows OS seems fine, but now I cant get back the space I reserved for Ubuntu (50GB). Partition Magic encounters an error, and Gparted see's all the space on the HDD as unallocated.. I already ran chkdsk /r ...Any ideas on what I should do to fix my HDD? | 04:04 |
| ksmithrules | Razbo: so ubuntu-10.10-netbook-i386.iso is the right thing, though? | 04:05 |
| Larriv | matlock: vom ?? what is that | 04:05 |
| matlock | Larriv> volt ohm meter | 04:05 |
| matlock | voltimeter | 04:05 |
| bonjoyee | BlackWeb: if you know those 8 packages..get the debs for those for 8.10..and try manual install with "sudo dpkg -i --force-all pkgname" | 04:05 |
| rusty149 | Stinkypants: Is windows OS on a seperate hard disk? | 04:05 |
| Larriv | matlock: i dont have any ohm meter | 04:05 |
| Stinkypants | the same HDD | 04:05 |
| Razbo | ksmithrules: yes, it just defaults to the gnome desktop if your system doesn't support it out of the box, which some older or proprietary cards won't | 04:06 |
| bazhang | bonjoyee, not a good idea | 04:06 |
| Stinkypants | rusty149: its on the same HDD that i tried to install ubuntu on. | 04:06 |
| jallii | can anyone help me with usb-modeswitch | 04:06 |
| canada_dry | Hey, can someone help me out with remastersys? I'm trying to get it to use "-noappend" but I'm probably putting it in the wrong place. My terminal line looks like "sudo remastersys dist -noappend" | 04:06 |
| rusty149 | Stinkypants: and GParted shows unallocated for entire drive? | 04:07 |
| BlackWeb | Alright | 04:07 |
| bonjoyee | bazhang: how exactly? | 04:07 |
| Stinkypants | rusty149: yes | 04:07 |
| jallii | need to get it working properly | 04:07 |
| rusty149 | Stinkypants: Is the first thing on boot Windows or do you see GRUB? | 04:07 |
| bazhang | bonjoyee, that is never a good option. and he has already mixed distro version packages so the damage is done | 04:07 |
| semitones | IdleOne, grub.conf says not to edit it, but... (looks over shoulder)... what if you do anyway??? | 04:08 |
| Larriv | matlock: there is signal when the computer start, but when ubuntu is loaded there is no more image on my flat screen | 04:08 |
| Stinkypants | rusty149: it just boots into windows (doesnt display anything in regards to ubuntu) | 04:08 |
| Razbo | ksmithrules: under Admin > Hardware Drivers you should run a check and see if there is a driver available, this will greatly enhance video performance and enable Unity after installing. | 04:08 |
| matlock | Larriv> your card, is it intel, nvidia or ati? | 04:08 |
| mhahe | hey guys im running 10.10 on a macbook pro 6,2... audio isnt working at all. any thoughts plz? its really bugging me (cant work without my tunes =D ) | 04:08 |
| Stinkypants | rusty149: my HDD is 233GB but now it displays 142GB as total size | 04:08 |
| rusty149 | Stinkypants: Are you in a live cd? | 04:08 |
| bonjoyee | bazhang: that was wrong..but if he can get to install these pakages..they'll overwrite the wrong ones... | 04:09 |
| Larriv | matlock: probably intel but im not sure, where can i find it | 04:09 |
| Stinkypants | rusty149: I'm on Windows XP now | 04:09 |
| IdleOne | semitones: mack up the file, make your edits, update grub, reboot. if all works, yay! if not put it back the way it was. | 04:09 |
| IdleOne | make* | 04:09 |
| IdleOne | err | 04:09 |
| IdleOne | backup the file | 04:09 |
| matlock | Larriv> sudo lshw -C video | 04:10 |
| rusty149 | Stinkypants: Boot to the live cd/usb. Then after checking with GParted again install testdisk, sudo apt-get install testdisk | 04:10 |
| Stinkypants | rusty149: is there no windows equivalent program to recover the lost space? | 04:10 |
| bencahill | How can I add stuff manually to Places? (e.g. smb shares mounted in /etc/fstab) | 04:10 |
| semitones | IdleOne, doesn't "update-grub" replace grub.conf with a new one? | 04:11 |
| IdleOne | semitones: yes that is why you will backup the current grub.cfg | 04:11 |
| rusty149 | Stinkypants: None as good and quick and reliable remember you are dealing with file systems which aren't natively supported on Windows that PartionMagic is pants | 04:11 |
| Larriv | matlock: ok it is a intel video card | 04:11 |
| matlock | Larriv> and you've tried activating it in system > preferences > monitors ?? | 04:12 |
| Stinkypants | rusty149: k thanks, I'll try that. Also do you know if setting the user name to Administrator during Ubuntu installation, can make it cause errors? | 04:12 |
| Larriv | matlock: yes but after that it turn off automaticly | 04:13 |
| hiexpo | Larriv, sorry was working in aircrack what now | 04:13 |
| rusty149 | Stinkypants: It would not cause any errors Administratot is not used as a user name in default Ubuntu | 04:13 |
| Razbo | bencahill: Open up a Nautilus window, the places in the left colum should be the same as the Places menu.. you can drag and drop your shares/folders to that list. | 04:13 |
| matlock | Larriv> when you open system > preferences > monitors does it ask your password? | 04:14 |
| russjr08 | Is it possible to remove a live USB when using it? Isn't it copied to ram? | 04:14 |
| Stinkypants | rusty149: is the admin user name in ubuntu root? | 04:14 |
| pigy1_alt | anyone know if ubuntu for power pc has xorg.conf file and were | 04:14 |
| Larriv | matlock: no | 04:14 |
| pigy1_alt | what directory path | 04:14 |
| semitones | IdleOne, right, so my current plan is 1. backup grub.conf 2. edit grub.conf 3. run update-grub. It seems like I would end up with a new grub.conf with no customization | 04:14 |
| bencahill | Razbo: thx :) | 04:14 |
| matlock | Larriv> try gksudo gnome-display-properties | 04:14 |
| smokymon | how do i get my networking to start automatically on startup | 04:14 |
| bencahill | Razbo: sometimes simpler than you think :D | 04:14 |
| rusty149 | Stinkypants: Kindof, root is the superuser which has full local control. But you never login as root | 04:15 |
| Razbo | bencahill: If only everything was that way. | 04:15 |
| rusty149 | !sudo | Stinkypants | 04:15 |
| ubottu | Stinkypants: sudo is a command to run command-line programs with superuser privileges ("root") (also see !cli). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for more information. For graphical applications see !gksu (GNOME, Xfce), or !kdesudo (KDE). If you're unable to execute commands with sudo see: http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/fixsudo | 04:15 |
| bencahill | Razbo: ;) | 04:15 |
| IdleOne | semitones: honestly, you got me confused now :) I suspect someone else would be better suited to help you with this. | 04:15 |
| van7hu | hi all of you,what do you think about torrent tool in ubuntu named tranmission | 04:15 |

| bazhang | van7hu, its fine | 04:16 |
| george__ | haven't had any issues | 04:16 |

| bazhang | hiexpo, hi | 04:18 |

| van7hu | bazhang: no, it's default installed in ubuntu,but I can not download any torrent with it | 04:18 |
| matlock | ^^ resets the x server | 04:18 |
| Larriv | matlock: ok i will try this | 04:18 |
| bencahill | Here's another question: why does every time i run "sudo mount -a", smb shares are duplicated in "df -h" | 04:18 |
| bencahill | ? | 04:18 |
| bazhang | van7hu, you dont download torrent files with it. set ff to open .torrent with it | 04:18 |
| rusty149 | smokymon: Right-click network applet > Edit Connections, select connection > Edit > Connect Automatically > Apply > Close | 04:19 |
| bazhang | van7hu, or just save to desktop and drop from there | 04:19 |
| van7hu | bazhang : ff mean firefox ? | 04:19 |
| bazhang | van7hu, yep | 04:19 |
| tripelb | is this the latest chrome for ubuntu? 8.0.552.224 | 04:20 |

| bazhang | tripelb, chromium-browser you mean | 04:20 |
| carlos__ | help me! =( | 04:20 |

| Larriv | hey man that just work for me | 04:21 |
| sacarlson | semitones: I guess the worst thing is that every time you update-grub or install a new kernel all your changes made there will be lost | 04:22 |
| Larriv | thanks you alot guys | 04:22 |
| van7hu | bazhang : not sure how to do it, I downloaded a .torrent file from internet (by ff) and it asks me to open by tramission and then wait but nothing happen | 04:22 |

| dirtydevil | I am having a problem in my 9.10 ubuntu. when I reboot my PC it shows a black screen File system check failed | 04:22 |
| sacarlson | semitones: I could be wrong there, but you can just setup a 40_custom with what you want and it will always be there | 04:22 |
| semitones | sacarlson, all I'm doing is commenting out a few entries | 04:23 |
| SilentSpoon | Microsoft Windows 7 Ultimate Upgrade | 04:23 |
| SilentSpoon | Full version ($319.99) | 04:23 |
| SilentSpoon | smh... | 04:23 |

| magik- | I'm using ubuntu with 2 NIC's as a firewall/router .. I've added the iptables enabled forwarding.. its forwarding STEAM chat client fine.. but nothing else ? web / irc not forwarding from the computers on the private lan | 04:23 |
| bazhang | SilentSpoon, ? | 04:23 |
| semitones | sacarlson, actually that's a good idea --- would I then disable the os_prober script | 04:23 |
| Larriv | matlock: i just unpluged the s-video cable then i have restarted my computer, and i whent to the monitor setting and i was able to activer the vga output | 04:23 |
| rusty149 | k4r1m: Are you doing this from Ubuntu? | 04:23 |
| pigy1_alt | say need to find xorg | 04:23 |
| Larriv | matlock: thank you alot and have a good day | 04:23 |
| k4r1m | rusty149: no from os x since I dont have ubuntu... I'm trying to get it thou. | 04:23 |
| SilentSpoon | good night #ubuntu | 04:24 |
| sacarlson | semitones: everything else stays the same just copy and paiste what you want in it and edit it then update-grub and a new menu item will be added with your 40_custom settings | 04:24 |
| semitones | sacarlson, ok, the thing is I'd like fewer entries, not more, so I'm not sure how to do that | 04:25 |

| bazhang | Digistras, dont repeat | 04:26 |
| sacarlson | semitones: oh ok got ya, well for that you need to remove all the bootable enties that it finds like rename them or remove them the update-grub and they should all be gone | 04:26 |
| sacarlson | semitones: like unistall the kernels that you now have from synaptic | 04:27 |
| semitones | sacarlson, so if I understand right, edit grub.cfg, then run update-grub? | 04:27 |
| magik- | my local computer behind the broken iptables router can PING google.. but cant see its web site? wtf | 04:27 |

| k4r1m | rusty149: I only have access to a windows 7 machine and I tried creating a bootable usb on it by following the intruction from ubuntu.com and using the universal usb installer but that gave me the same result "Missing Operating system" | 04:27 |
| semitones | sacarlson, i've done that step :) I've got three instances of windows in grub, but I only need one | 04:27 |
| sacarlson | semitones: there is no need to edit grub.cfg at all just remove the kernels you don't want and update-grub, grub does the editing for you | 04:28 |
| sacarlson | semitones: do the window partitions still exist? | 04:28 |
| rusty149 | k4r1m: Is that what is on the current USB stick? | 04:29 |
| k4r1m | rusty149: yup | 04:29 |
| semitones | sacarlson, yes, it's windows 7, so one is the main partition, one is a small recovery partition (I think) and one is a partition called "HP_TOOLS" | 04:29 |
| rusty149 | k4r1m: Do you have another USB stick? | 04:29 |
| zaery | sync has been running for 30-45 minutes, anyone know what's the problem? | 04:29 |
| k4r1m | rusty149: yeah a few | 04:30 |
| Maccer | Hey #ubuntu! I forgot where you change which sound server you want to use, where can I find that? | 04:30 |
| sacarlson | semitones: if you never want to boot the windows partitions that exist then just delete them (the windows partitions) then run update-grub and the etries will be gone | 04:30 |
| rusty149 | k4r1m: One the same size? | 04:30 |
| semitones | sacarlson, well I'd like to be able to access them from the windows bootloader | 04:30 |
| semitones | if I needed to | 04:30 |
| k4r1m | rusty149: no I only have a 2gb and a 16gb(thats the one I already used) and the rest are all 1gb | 04:30 |
| sacarlson | semitones: well try your config edit then | 04:30 |
| k4r1m | but I guess i can use the 2gb | 04:31 |
| r00t4rd3d | Digistras, http://code.google.com/p/fern-wifi-cracker/ <-- makes aircrack much easier to use :D | 04:31 |
| Maccer | Test | 04:31 |
| philip_ | Hello all. Can someone help me fix a router that had a bad flash I set a static ip etc and pinged the gateway, it responds so it can still be fixed. | 04:31 |
| r00t4rd3d | bootwait and tftp new firmware | 04:31 |
| r00t4rd3d | but this isnt the place for routers | 04:32 |
| semitones | sacarlson, ok, I'll try | 04:32 |
| rusty149 | k4r1m: Use 2x 1GB sticks. It will be easier if they are the same size. And Ubuntu image is <700mb | 04:32 |
| philip_ | I have a WRT54GS2V1 linksys and I don't know the right room for it I'm sorry | 04:32 |
| sacarlson | semitones: just backup what you change you can always do a live boot and fix it and all hell breaks | 04:32 |
| rusty149 | k4r1m: Format usb stick 1 in the same way | 04:32 |
| semitones | sacarlson, was that the editing grub.cfg, or copying everything into 40_custom and stopping os_prober | 04:32 |
| k4r1m | rusty149: using the windows usb tool? | 04:33 |
| rusty149 | k4r1m: yep | 04:33 |
| k4r1m | kk | 04:33 |
| sacarlson | semitones: no the 40_custom would only add entries you would have to edit the grub.cfg file | 04:33 |
| magik- | iptables is forwarding packets for only some things to work.. how can I tell what may be blocking (http etc) | 04:33 |
| bearblack_ | HAS anyone Else had this problem with 10.10? Even after reboot the UI stays glitched or something? http://img233.imageshack.us/img233/6752/screenshot8f.png | 04:33 |
| semitones | ok, i'll back up and edit it. thanks! | 04:34 |

| Maccer | I forgot how to do it, haven't used Ubuntu since 8.14 | 04:36 |

| pehden | paq7512: you could use avast or avg | 04:36 |

| Maccer | I don't remember lazarus_, yeesh. | 04:37 |

| storage | can i ask a question? | 04:37 |
| rusty149 | pehden: paq7512: avast is better | 04:37 |
| k4r1m | rusty149: you want me to to dd the img to the disk? | 04:37 |
| rusty149 | k4r1m: No, dd the partition of stick 1 (made in windows) to stick 2 | 04:38 |
| lazarus_ | Maccer: there is documentation on it | 04:38 |
| lazarus_ | but i dont | 04:38 |
| pehden | rusty149 : Agree but for somereason the avast for ubuntu doesnt update for me and I have to always re enter they key | 04:38 |

| dreamz | configure: error: missing xf86misc library | 04:44 |
| k4r1m | dreamz: looks like the package is missing a library? | 04:44 |
| k4r1m | you might need to download xf86misc separately? | 04:45 |
| rusty149 | k4r1m: eraseDisk disk1 | 04:45 |
| k4r1m | rusty149: format? | 04:46 |
| dreamz | k4r1m: I've tried searching but I cant find the package. Could it be that im using an x64 system? | 04:46 |
| rusty149 | k4r1m:yes, run in terminal: eraseDisk disk1 | 04:46 |
| gedit-quest | Dreamz: I don't think your system has anything to do with that. | 04:46 |
| k4r1m | rusty149: eraseDisk is not a command | 04:47 |
| dreamz | i cant seem to find the libary | 04:47 |
| Guest5156 | y do i keep getting disconected from my internet and it keeps coming back on can anyone help me? | 04:47 |
| k4r1m | rusty149: its under diskutil eraseDisk but it needs a format paramater | 04:47 |

| rusty149 | k4r1m: not enough room to put a 16GB onto a 1GB | 04:50 |
| k4r1m | rusty149: I don't have 2 sticks that are the same size... 16gb, 2gb, 1gb..etc :( | 04:50 |
| CarlFK | Changeofheart01: you are in ubuntu chat. welcome to the room :) | 04:50 |
| mjb_ | Hi all, I just ran into something a bit odd.... | 04:50 |
| k4r1m | should i format the 16gb and go create another ubuntu img from windows on the 1gb? | 04:51 |
| pigy1_alt | anyone know how to fix blank screen in 10.10 power pc | 04:51 |
| mjb_ | I'm running 10.10, upgraded from 10.04, x86-64. | 04:51 |
| rusty149 | k4r1m: yes | 04:51 |
| k4r1m | kk brb | 04:51 |
| Changeofheart01 | Oh, I thought this was ubuntu support | 04:51 |
| bazhang | Changeofheart01, it is | 04:51 |
| k4r1m | rusty149: shall I format the 16gb under the windows machine or leave it? | 04:51 |
| pigy1_alt | im trying to modify xorg.conf but that doesnt exit in X11 path | 04:51 |
| semitones | bazhang, I edited burg.cfg and nothing bad happened :) | 04:51 |
| semitones | hooray! | 04:51 |
| semitones | ? | 04:51 |
| mjb_ | But, even though I'm fully updated, and the latest kernel that's installed is 2.6.35-24, my box always boots w/ 2.6.32-24. | 04:52 |
| dreamz | could it be that the program is looking for the xf86misc libary in the wrong place? | 04:52 |
| mjb_ | Looking at menu.lst, default is set to 9, and he frist kernel in the list is 2.6.35-24. The 2.6.32-24, whcih is the kerel I get, is listed last..... | 04:53 |
| mjb_ | Anyone seen or heard of something like this before? | 04:53 |
| gedit-quest | mjb_: can you access the grub menu and start with the latest kernal? | 04:53 |
| semitones | mjb_, I know all about the menu.lst! well, not literally | 04:53 |
| atpa8a | hello | 04:54 |
| Stinkypants | If I burn Ubuntu onto a CD-R and it passes the disk verify.... does that mean the disk is good(shouldn't causes problems/errors during installation)? | 04:54 |
| mjb_ | gedit. you mean, boot, and then select a kernel from the menu, manually? | 04:54 |
| mjb_ | Yeah, I can try that, haven't done it yet. | 04:54 |
| semitones | mjb_, the number 9 refers to the line number in the menu -- including the spacers like "default grub options" and stuff | 04:54 |
| gedit-quest | hey dreamz what did you #include | 04:55 |
| rusty149 | k4r1m: no, on Mac Terminal run: diskutil GPTWindows_FAT_32 disk2 | 04:55 |
| mjb_ | semitones,my bad, that should have read 0, not 9. | 04:55 |
| rusty149 | k4r1m: or what ever the 16GB disk is | 04:55 |
| === joe75_ is now known as joe75 | ||
| === abcd_ is now known as Guest90481 | ||
| semitones | Stinkypants, it means the disk is good, yes. you might still have problems installing it if the cd drive isn't detected correctly or something | 04:55 |
| mjb_ | and, doesn't it refer to the entry number in menu.lst, starting w/ nubmering at 0? | 04:55 |
| rusty149 | k4r1m: That was wrong sorry not familiar with Mac commands | 04:56 |
| semitones | mjb_, not entry number, no. It's line number | 04:56 |
| atpa8a | folkes, i'm trying to use insserv to change the boot order of some services... is that the right way? | 04:56 |
| semitones | mjb_, I don't know what it would do if you set default entry to 0 | 04:56 |
| Stinkypants | guess i'll try and install ubuntu again.... hope it doesn't run into an error again | 04:56 |
| mjb_ | semitomes, so, it should read 'default ##" where ### is the first line of the stanza that sepcifies a specific kernel? | 04:56 |
| rusty149 | k4r1m: no, on Mac Terminal run: diskutil eraseDisk GPT 16GB disk2 | 04:58 |
| semitones | mjb_, if the entry you want to boot by default is the 9th line from the top, you would put default 9 | 04:58 |
| semitones | for example for awhile we were booting windows by default, and it was on the 14th line in grub | 04:58 |
| mjb_ | semitones, reading from menu.lst: "Set the default entry to the entry number NUM. Numbering starts from 0, and `the entry number 0 is the default if the command is not used. | 04:58 |
| mjb_ | " | 04:58 |
| rusty149 | k4r1m: That looks right but check the disk2 bit | 04:58 |
| semitones | mjb_, that looks right | 04:59 |
| semitones | entry number means line number I guess | 04:59 |
| semitones | yeah | 04:59 |

| rusty149 | Stinkypants: Select Primary, mount point: / | 07:12 |

| rusty149 | Stinkypants: You have to leave space for the SWAP partition. | 07:13 |
| Stinkypants | 2GB for the swap partition if I have 1GB of Ram right? also is it Primary or Logical | 07:13 |
| rusty149 | Stinkypants: Remember that is the advanced view | 07:13 |
| iflema | potiphera: have you tried supergrubdisc2 to boot/get in and then repair? | 07:14 |
| rusty149 | Stinkypants: That is a guide only, you can have 100GB swap if you wanted | 07:14 |
| Stinkypants | is there any benefits to having a swap file bigger than 2GB? | 07:14 |
| potiphera | iflema, no, I hadn't heard about it. | 07:14 |
| Maccer | 2GB sounds okay. | 07:14 |
| rusty149 | Stinkypants: But you would never use it, so 2GB is fine | 07:14 |
| Stinkypants | k | 07:14 |
| iflema | potiphera: its a small is image to search 4 and recover grub2 | 07:15 |
| Maccer | Ehh, SWAP systems become more advanced and faster who knows, but you can use a SWAP file instead. | 07:15 |
| DBoyz | rusty149, Flare183: checked, they are the same value | 07:15 |

| Stinkypants | *best | 07:15 |
| potiphera | iflema, I downgraded GRUB to legacy, so will it still work for me? | 07:16 |
| rusty149 | Stinkypants, no, windows supports ntfs | 07:16 |
| Stinkypants | I mean.... is ntfs better surrported in ubuntu now | 07:16 |
| Flare183 | rusty149: windows supports FAT32 as well | 07:16 |

| Flare183 | Stinkypants: yes, but I've had some probables with it | 07:17 |

| k4r1m | rusty149: setting bootabl flag using fdisk doesnt do anything :( | 07:20 |
| iflema | potiphera: that sounds like you have edited the kernel boot string and messed up!? | 07:20 |
| k4r1m | any other suggestion? anyone else maybe? | 07:21 |
| rusty149 | k4r1m: does the info say bootable now? | 07:21 |
| iflema | potiphera: did you edit /boot/grub/grub.conf manually? | 07:21 |
| Stinkypants | should the swap area partition be Primary of Logical? do i need to set a mount point? and should it be before or after the Ext4 partition? | 07:22 |
| magik- | sudo iptables -A POSTROUTING -t nat -j MASQUERADE ------ Shouldn't i see the effect of that command in iptables -L ????? | 07:22 |
| k4r1m | rusty149: no that didnt change | 07:22 |
| almoxarife | tell me there is a easy fix to the 'suspend' hang/crash on 10.10????????????????????????????????? | 07:23 |
| potiphera | iflema, I downgraded to legacy Grub, and then I think I did sudo update-grub, but then I had to edit menu.lst manually because it had an incorrect pathname for root= since I was running from a live CD chrooted to my encrypted filesystem | 07:23 |
| rusty149 | k4r1m: Usually the partition is set to bootable not the drive. | 07:23 |
| potiphera | so I had to change root= to the hexadecimal name, although I'm not sure whether I was supposed to change it to the encrypted partition, the boot partition, or what | 07:24 |
| iflema | potiphera: confirm the initrd entry..... | 07:24 |
| potiphera | iflema, just a second, let me open menu.lst. | 07:24 |
| k4r1m | rusty149: thats what I did using fdisk set the partition to bootable tried partition 1 and then 2, 1 being the efi partition and 2 being the ms dos | 07:24 |
| k4r1m | it didnt do anything | 07:24 |
| iflema | potiphera: oh, ok - encryption.... not sure!! | 07:24 |
| k4r1m | rusty149: here whats more weird I connected the 2gb disk and did the same thing on it with fdisk now it no longer shows up on boot! | 07:25 |
| potiphera | iflema, initrd line says /initrd.img-2.6.32-27-generic (and similar entries for the different kernels) | 07:25 |
| potiphera | and I tried update-initramfs | 07:25 |
| potiphera | which keeps giving me an error saying "cryptsetup: WARNING: invalid line in /etc/crypttab -". | 07:26 |

| jdelanoy | I am dual booting ubuntu and Win7. I deleted my ubuntu partition because I needed more room. After repartitioning, I attempted to reload ubuntu w/ wubi. It installed with no issues, but is failing to write to the BCD correctly. It won't show up as an option when on the boot menu. | 07:35 |
| potiphera | iflema, thanks, I think this is slightly different because it's full disk encryption. But I am able to mount the disk using the live CD. I am going to go read the documentation for supergrubdisk and disk encryption, but thanks again. | 07:36 |

| rusty149 | wauf: VMWare connects to guests using a virtual ethernet connection | 07:47 |
| rusty149 | wauf: You can then use the settings to manage how the guest connects to your hosts network | 07:48 |

| o___O | hi there, anyone here knows a good way to remove all characters from a string exept some? (A-Z, a-z,0-9 and . ( ) should stay) | 08:58 |

| rusty149 | glaceman: add the same line, options snd-hda-intel model=mobile, to sudo nano /etc/modprobe.d/options.conf | 08:58 |
| Richie086 | nm, i scrolled up and saw what ur issue was | 08:59 |
| rusty149 | glaceman: so the line reads | 08:59 |

| dnivra | hello. I'm using Ubuntu 10.10 and in my laptop, there are a set of controls for music player. But they work for "Music Player" aka rhythmbox. How can I make them work for amarok? | 09:00 |
| Richie086 | WhatToDo: is it just this one paticular disk that is giving you issues or are all disks doing the same thing when you put a disk in the drive | 09:00 |
| WhatToDo | richie086: all created dvd-rw | 09:01 |
| WhatToDo | richie086: im trying to boot from them and that doesnt work either | 09:01 |
| glaceman | rusty149: when i try to save it says could not find the file /home/michel/etc/modprobe.d/options.conf | 09:01 |
| Richie086 | WhatToDo: so any burned dvd-rws. What tool are you using to burn these dvds? | 09:01 |
| rusty149 | glaceman: It shouldn't are you using nano to edit it. | 09:02 |
| Richie086 | to write the .iso to the dvd-rw | 09:02 |
| glaceman | rusty149: no i dont know how to use nano | 09:02 |
| glaceman | i opened the file with root | 09:02 |
| glaceman | rusty149: how to save | 09:03 |
| Dr_Willis | in nano - the ^ means hold the control key. | 09:03 |
| Dr_Willis | ^o = hit control and o | 09:03 |
| WhatToDo | richie086: i right click on the .iso and select write to disk | 09:03 |
| rusty149 | glaceman: you should really use nano it takes 20 seconds to learn. At the bottom are commands so, ^C = Ctrl+C | 09:03 |
| Richie086 | WhatToDo: are you are using ubuntu to do this? | 09:03 |
| WhatToDo | rickie086: yes | 09:03 |
| glaceman | rusty149: i typed it, but how to save and exit | 09:03 |
| rusty149 | glaceman: Ctrl+O = Save | 09:04 |
| rusty149 | glaceman: Ctrl+X = Exit | 09:04 |
| rusty149 | glaceman: you have to hit enter after Ctrl+O btw | 09:05 |
| glaceman | lol | 09:05 |
| glaceman | ok | 09:05 |
| glaceman | done | 09:05 |
| Richie086 | WhatToDo: I am not exactly sure what ubunut is using to burn the image, but I would reccomend installing k3b to burn .iso images on linux. Is the .iso you are trying to burn a ubuntu install disk? | 09:05 |
| glaceman | rusty149: i will restart and be back | 09:05 |
| WhatToDo | richie086 one is windows and one is ubuntu | 09:06 |
| Richie086 | WhatToDo: sudo apt-get install k3b | 09:06 |
| CornFedHobo | o___O: if command line and aren't too particular maybe pipe it through something like: perl -pe 's/[^A-Z0-9\.\(\)]//gi' | 09:06 |
| Richie086 | WhatToDo: do you have access to a windows machine that you could put the burned dvd-rw into to see if it reads it at all? it sounds like it is not burning the image properly to me | 09:07 |
| o___O | i give it a try, thanks CornFedHobo | 09:07 |
| WhatToDo | Richie086: would it make much of a difference? At this point I'm down to one dvd-rw and I can't seem to access them to blank them. And i'll check that with windows right now | 09:07 |
| quentusrex_ | Anyone know how to tell getaddrinfo() to check for SRV records and not just A records? | 09:08 |
| WhatToDo | Richie086: my windows computer recognized the windows boot disk | 09:08 |
| glaceman | rusty149: im back, still no sound unfortunetly | 09:08 |
| rusty149 | WhatToDo: kb3 is a really good program, it is quite likely that it would see the discs | 09:08 |
| Richie086 | WhatToDo: like I said, I am not exactly sure what ubuntu is using to burn dvds by default. | 09:08 |
| Richie086 | rusty149: yeah i agree.. never had any issues with k3b | 09:09 |
| WhatToDo | Richie086: I'll go get it | 09:09 |
| rusty149 | glaceman: just check that you did it correctly, pastebin sudo cat /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base.conf | 09:09 |
| Richie086 | WhatToDo: so windows sees whatever is burned on the dvd-rw? or were you actually able to boot from the media when you put it in the windows machine? | 09:09 |
| o___O | thanks alot CornFedHobo, works great | 09:10 |
| Richie086 | there is a possibility that it is not marking the disk as bootable | 09:10 |
| glaceman | rusty149: http://paste.ubuntu.com/552111/ | 09:10 |
| dnivra | hello. I'm using Ubuntu 10.10 and in my laptop, there are a set of controls on my keyboard for music player. But they work for "Music Player" aka rhythmbox. How can I make them work for amarok? | 09:10 |

| glaceman | rusty149: yes | 09:17 |
| Richie086 | sound issues on linux can really suck | 09:17 |
| rusty149 | WhatToDo: I have seen that before eject the disc, it usually still work. | 09:17 |
| rusty149 | WhatToDo: Does that mean you were able to erase the disk? | 09:18 |
| WhatToDo | i started k3b and i have a disk in which i previously burned something to, previously as in 2 seconds ago, and it says no medium present | 09:18 |
| WhatToDo | therefore, i cannot blank the disk | 09:18 |

| tristan3199 | hi i recently messed up my boot sequence somehow.. now just before login i get a black screen with a blue window asking normal boot (does nothing), command with networking, command without nw, update grub.. ect.. none of these options do much | 09:52 |
| Dr_Willis | sirkuttin: ive moved the hard drive from one old laptop.. to a brand new one.. and linux worked just fine. Even tho the 2 laptops had radically differnt hardware specs. | 09:53 |
| twiztid | dr_willis: the hd is a total of 40gigs... and yes my /home is on its own partition... | 09:53 |
| WhatToDo | rusty149: nothing to upgrade or anything | 09:53 |
| tristan3199 | if i chose command prompt i can type startx and get it to boot the root | 09:53 |
| Dr_Willis | twiztid: your /home/ may be too small then. .wine can be as large as your /home/ allows.. unless you some how link it elsewhere. | 09:53 |
| joakimk | I know how to use sed to search/replace *.html with a regex. But how do I make a regex to replace something like "<b>start</b><ul><li>bla</li><li>bla</li></ul>" with ""? I mean, everything from <b>start</b> until (the first occurrence of) </ul> | 09:54 |
| sirkuttin | Dr Willis: I tried between my desktop and laptop. would not load gui. I am thinking due to the proprietary video card driver. wild guess | 09:54 |
| twiztid | dr_willis: im almost tempted to reinstall ubuntu and not give /home its own partition... fix maybe? or how would i point it to another area? | 09:54 |
| twiztid | dr_willis: i suppose i would like to make a custom directory for wine... | 09:55 |
| tristan3199 | i added the lubuntu, xubuntu, desktops recently and they worked, but it changed my normal ubuntu login screen to the lubuntu login screen.. dont know if its part of the problem | 09:55 |
| WhatToDo | alright its late for me | 09:55 |
| WhatToDo | im gonna go to bed | 09:55 |
| glaceman | WhatToDo: good night :P | 09:56 |
| WhatToDo | ill get some DVD-R tomorrow and see if that fixes my problem | 09:56 |
| Dr_Willis | twiztid: where ELSE do you have space at to even point it to.. thas the question | 09:56 |
| WhatToDo | if not, im sure ill be bcak haha | 09:56 |
| tristan3199 | any suggestions on how to fix this boot problem.. | 09:56 |
| kzmrbtx | i installed ubuntu 10.10 and it doesn't boot.. it did boot two times but usually it hangs after detecting/initializing the ide/sata drives.. | 09:56 |
| glaceman | rusty149: when i used older version of ubuntu 8. i used to have under the sound propreties, alsa soundmixer, now i don;t see this option anymore | 09:56 |
| === david is now known as Guest93796 | ||
| twiztid | dr_willis: well its a fresh install so i dont really care where else it goes... if i had known wine explictly used the /home folder i would have made it bigger... i tried to figure out how to point it elsewhere but to no avail... :( | 09:57 |
| tristan3199 | i cant boot up except in root.. and i think if there is a way to reset my login screen to the original state i would be fixed.. is that possible | 09:57 |
| Dr_Willis | twiztid: user settings and files go in their own home dir.. where else would you expect it to go? | 09:58 |
| Dr_Willis | twiztid: how much space do you have on / ? | 09:58 |
| Dr_Willis | twiztid: 'point' it else wehre.... 'ln -s somelocation toanotherlocation' if you can find somewhere else to point it to... | 09:59 |
| twiztid | dr_willis: 30gigs are free... 2gigs are for /home and the rest are the dell recovery partitions | 09:59 |
| qwm | not the first time i'm around asking this, but: anyone else than me that is having trouble decoding mp3s in 64bit ubuntu? :) | 09:59 |
| Dr_Willis | twiztid: just move /home/ back to /, and not on its own partition then. | 10:00 |
| kalborough | Can anyone help me get Google Picasa to work on Ubuntu 10.04? | 10:00 |
| Dr_Willis | 2gb for home - is not worth even doing... :) | 10:00 |
| tristan3199 | can anyone help me with a boot issue | 10:00 |
| Dr_Willis | !movehome | 10:00 |
| Dr_Willis | !homemove | 10:00 |
| twiztid | dr_willis: i can do that without reinstalling?!!?! | 10:00 |
| Dr_Willis | Hmm. what was that factoid.. | 10:00 |
| Dr_Willis | twiztid: yes... | 10:00 |
| FloodBot4 | Dr_Willis: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation. | 10:00 |
| twiztid | dr_willis: wow ok... u mind cluing me in on that? is it gparted? | 10:01 |
| rww | !separatehome | 10:01 |
| ubottu | Your home directory is where all of your personal files are usually kept. For moving your home directory to a separate partition, please see: http://psychocats.net/ubuntu/separatehome | 10:01 |
| twiztid | thx | 10:01 |
| Dr_Willis | twiztid: make a /tobehome, copy EVERYTHING from /home/ to /tobehome/ , unmount /home/ rename tobehome to be 'home' - edit /etc/fstab and remove entry for /home/ | 10:01 |
| rusty149 | glaceman: try, sudo alsactl /dev/snd | 10:01 |
| Dr_Willis | twiztid: notjhing to do with parted.. its not partion manageing.. | 10:01 |
| Dr_Willis | 2gb is barely enough space for my wallpaper collection.. | 10:02 |
| rww | oh, moving home directory and not repartitioning? dunno if that factoid will help, then, and we don't have one for that use case specifically. | 10:02 |
| Benkinooby | hi, during install of 10.10 i always have to press (any) keys to keep the install goin... any1 also know that problem? | 10:02 |
| twiztid | dr_willis: ah... i8 then ill give it a go and reinstall steam and protal and see what happens! :) and ya... i just figured it was a settings type of folder... | 10:02 |
| Dr_Willis | twiztid: you can have seperate/differnt .wine dirs for differnt games, if you wanted to.. | 10:03 |
| Dr_Willis | twiztid: i got a .wine and a .wine-lotro and a few other .wine-*** dirs | 10:03 |
| rusty149 | Dr_Willis: Use dirrent prefixes | 10:03 |
| Dr_Willis | each would be considered its 'own' windows setup | 10:03 |
| twiztid | dr_willis: well i guess steam tries to download the installation files first which are 5+ gigs... | 10:03 |
| Dr_Willis | .wine-malware-testing :) | 10:03 |
| twiztid | rusty149: i dipped into the prefix thing a little but couldnt figure it out... | 10:04 |
| Dr_Willis | Should i point out how nice and cheap hard drives are these days? :) | 10:04 |
| twiztid | dr_willis: i have a lil 400gig in which im planning to mount with samba but dont thing its to smart to run games from the network... :P | 10:05 |
| mmo| | Hi, does anyone know if I can install ubuntu 10.04 or 10.10 on a fit-pc 1.0? | 10:05 |
| rusty149 | twiztid: If it is too awkward then use PlayOnLinux to manage them. By default it uses a new Prefix for each game | 10:05 |
| twiztid | rusty149: thats the thing... i was using that but when i got to install protal, it askes for my steam username... once entered, it tells me its incorrect... | 10:06 |
| rusty149 | mmo|: Have you tried the USB port | 10:06 |
| twiztid | rusty149: so i started steam up myself... logged in fine and when i go to download portal... im out of room | 10:07 |
| twiztid | cause of my small /home | 10:07 |
| rusty149 | twiztid: Do you have another hard drive? | 10:07 |
| mmo| | rusty149: no, I haven't tried anything yet, as I would like to know if it is possible at all to install on it...without having to do TOO much hacking... | 10:07 |
| Dr_Willis | twiztid: network drives can be mounted/used as if they were local.. they will be slower howevber. | 10:08 |
| Dr_Willis | twiztid: 2gb for home . isent enough to even play Pong... :) | 10:09 |
| glaceman | rusty149: unknown command | 10:09 |
| twiztid | rusty149: ya but its on my desktop... thats why i thought about mounting through the network ( dr_willis: ) but ya itll be slow | 10:09 |
| sandhu | hi | 10:09 |
| twiztid | dr_willis: i was unaware that e v e r y t h i n g wants to go /home :P | 10:09 |
| massimiliano | ciao | 10:10 |
| Dr_Willis | twiztid: time to learn the 'fundamentals' | 10:10 |
| livingdaylight | greetings... my volume control appears ot have disappeared from my panel? | 10:10 |
| Dr_Willis | twiztid: everything does not.. system installed apps and data goes to / | 10:10 |
| sandhu | how i can download from you tube | 10:10 |
| Dr_Willis | sandhu: theres numerous firefox extensions that make that easy | 10:10 |
| twiztid | dr_willis: aye aye aye... i know enough to get around... im just starting gaming on linux... >:) | 10:10 |
| === me_ is now known as thousands | ||
| sandhu | but how pl tell me | 10:11 |
| livingdaylight | I see the wireless icon ; date and time and username with logout options... but where is the volume control? | 10:11 |
| Dr_Willis | sandhu: downloadhelper is one such extension | 10:11 |
| glaceman | tumbs up for download helper | 10:11 |
| glaceman | ;) | 10:11 |
| sandhu | i have to download downloadhelper | 10:11 |
| glaceman | sandhu: download helper grab audio and video from websites | 10:12 |
| glaceman | u can find it on google | 10:12 |
| rusty149 | mmo|: They use an x86 processor so is supported by Ubuntu. Didn't it come with it on ther? | 10:12 |
| glaceman | firefox download helper | 10:12 |
| * pehden is away: I'm busy | 10:12 | |
| glaceman | and get the extension | 10:12 |
| heyguise | whats a fun little learning project to do with ubuntu? | 10:12 |
| Dr_Willis | heyguise: learn regular expressions :) | 10:13 |
| sandhu | i have to download from fire fox | 10:13 |
| mmo| | rusty149: yeah, it currently has Ubuntu 7.10...I am thinking it's time to do an upgrade. But I am afraid that it'll simply not work... | 10:13 |
| twiztid | dr_willis: well fuck me running... i guess the real question is why playonlinux tells me my steam username is incorrect... (now that i know NOT to give /home its own "home") | 10:13 |
| heyguise | Dr_Willis, in terminal? | 10:13 |
| Dr_Willis | Oh wait.. thats more of a lifetime project... | 10:13 |
| glaceman | sandhu: hold on a sec | 10:13 |
| Dr_Willis | heyguise: regular expressions are used by many languages/tools.. worth learning | 10:13 |
| rusty149 | mmo|: What you might stuggle on is system requirements | 10:13 |
| heyguise | tnx | 10:13 |
| Dr_Willis | sandhu: firefox has menu items to 'go to the firefox extension web site;' yes... | 10:13 |
| Dr_Willis | heyguise: run that vimtutor program and learn vi basics - is also a good use of an hr.. | 10:14 |
| mmo| | rusty149: hm, yeah... | 10:14 |
| rusty149 | mmo|: But you could try it or use xubuntu or lubuntu | 10:14 |
| glaceman | sandhu: http://www.downloadhelper.net/install.php | 10:14 |
| mmo| | rusty149: yes, you're right - I had though of those, they are probably a better choice... | 10:14 |
| glaceman | sandhu: sorry try this link instead it's direct | 10:14 |
| glaceman | https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/3006/ | 10:14 |
| Benkinooby | hi, what it the cleanest way of getting rig of all the old kernel entries in grub? deleting them from /boot ? | 10:15 |
| rusty149 | mmo|: Does it run OK atm? | 10:15 |
| Dr_Willis | Benkinooby: use the package manager and remove the old kernels.. | 10:15 |
| Dr_Willis | Benkinooby: your suggestionis like the worse way :) | 10:15 |
| mmo| | rusty149: yes, it runs pretty well, I am a bit concerned about potential security holes, though, as it has not been supported for a looong time | 10:15 |
| omega-xis | @Benkinooby or use ubuntu tweak, it has a special tab called "remove kernells" it deletes all of them exept the current running one | 10:16 |
| Dr_Willis | Benkinooby: ubuntu-tweak has a little gui tool to do some cleanup also. I suggest leaving at least 2 kernels. | 10:16 |
| heyguise | Dr_Willis, installing it now. I really need to just get some comp sci techs and work on basics. My foundation is weak as shit. | 10:16 |
| livingdaylight | I see the wireless icon ; date and time and username with logout options... but where is the volume control? | 10:17 |
| livingdaylight | can someone help me with thhis. I need to access volume control | 10:17 |
| Benkinooby | Dr_Willis, i don't understand why, for example, ubuntu opts to generate the grub.cfg instead of working on it directly... sometimes it makes things more complicated than they are.... anyways thank you for your hint about NOT removing these files from hand | 10:17 |
| omega-xis | @livingdaylight go to add to panel and add another applet which shows an e-mailicon and a sound icon | 10:17 |
| kbdvdr | livingdaylight, if you are under gnome, right click on the panel (top bar) and select add to panel, and add volume control | 10:17 |
| livingdaylight | thanks guys... odd that it should disappear though? | 10:18 |
| livingdaylight | what is name of app? | 10:18 |
| Dr_Willis | Benkinooby: idiot proofing and flexiablity.. | 10:18 |
| Dr_Willis | Benkinooby: the way the old grub config/menu was a combonation of both the grub config AND settings files for update-grub was much more confuiseing and problematic | 10:19 |
| omega-xis | @livingdaylight probably the applet creashed | 10:19 |
| livingdaylight | omega-xis, strange and now I don't see anything in add applet that looks like volume? | 10:19 |
| livingdaylight | *add to panel | 10:20 |
| liar | i want thunderbird to start google-chrome instead of firefox when i click on a link, how can i do that? i already changed the values of network.protocol-handler.app.(ftp/http/https) to google-chrome but it still starts firefox | 10:20 |
| thousands | gnome-volume-control? | 10:20 |
| rusty149 | mmo|: Ubuntu 10.04 requires 2x CPU speed and 2x Memory. | 10:20 |
| Benkinooby | Dr_Willis, so i have to remove the old kernel headeer packages? | 10:20 |
| Dr_Willis | Benkinooby: never noticed. if you are remioving the old kernels.. that would make sence | 10:21 |
| mmo| | rusty149: ok, but I guess I can try the lightweight ones then - or maybe the netbook remix? | 10:21 |
| Benkinooby | Dr_Willis, can't follow you... are you speaking about removing the headers? | 10:22 |
| twiztid | dr_willis: i guess because i dont know "fundamentals" that i have to ask how to "unmount /home" | 10:22 |
| livingdaylight | kbdvdr, I don't see volume applet in Add to Panel | 10:22 |
| rusty149 | mmo|: Xubuntu should work OK, it meets the system requirements | 10:22 |
| magik- | holy smokes thats awesome | 10:23 |
| mmo| | rusty149: ok, I think I will try that, then, thank you for the help | 10:23 |
| rusty149 | mmo|: Netbook Edition requires a lot of power; more than the desktop. | 10:24 |
| gobbe | unity is quite slow in 10.10 | 10:24 |
| Dr_Willis | twiztid: thers no n in the 'umount' command. :) | 10:24 |
| gobbe | it's much faster in next release | 10:24 |
| Dr_Willis | twiztid: and if its in use.. you dont want to unmount it.. | 10:25 |
| Dr_Willis | twiztid: doing this work. May be easier from a live cd. | 10:25 |
| pupuserc1803c | hirn | 10:25 |
| kbdvdr | livingdaylight, add the "indicator applet" | 10:25 |
| kbdvdr | it will add a few things, including volume control | 10:25 |
| kuru | so where can I edit the xorg.conf file (or whatever it's called now). On Ubuntu lucid. | 10:25 |
| Dr_Willis | kuru: by default there is no xorg.conf you can make one if you need. | 10:25 |
| kuru | it's defaulting to VESA and I want to manually change that | 10:25 |
| kuru | ok.. so is there a way I can change the driver to something else without having to create an xorg.conf file? | 10:26 |
| magik- | psybnc is the best app the world has ever experienced | 10:26 |
| twiztid | dr_willis: gotcha... so to be straight... reboot to live, umount /home, copy contents to /tobehome, delete /home, rename /tobehome to /home, edit /etc/fstab and delete /home and reboot? | 10:27 |
| Gnea | kuru: what video card? | 10:27 |
| kuru | intel 915GM/GMS/910GML Express Graphics Controller | 10:27 |
| Dr_Willis | twiztid: from the live cd.. /home/ would be the cd's /home/ your hard drives 'home' dir is going to be empty since its just a mount point for the home partition. | 10:27 |
| rusty149 | twiztid: That is wrong | 10:27 |
| Gnea | twiztid: very wrong | 10:28 |
| twiztid | %*$# | 10:28 |
| Gnea | kuru: you'll want the i915 driver | 10:28 |
| Dr_Willis | twiztid: from live cd.. mount your installed system. and your home partition, copy files from home patition to the installed systems home dir.. then edit the installed systems etc/fstab file and comment out the home entry | 10:28 |
| rusty149 | twiztid: You deleted the /home again at the end | 10:28 |
| kuru | Ghea, right.. which I have to compile from scratch? | 10:28 |
| Dr_Willis | twiztid: pay attention to the PATHs of things | 10:28 |
| Gnea | kuru: why would you need to do that? | 10:28 |
| sandhu | i m unable to download video downloadhelper | 10:29 |
| kuru | Gnea, I can't seem to find it | 10:29 |
| Gnea | kuru: how are you trying to look for it? | 10:29 |
| Dr_Willis | twiztid: ie: boot live cd.. Mount your old installed system (it will be like /media/SOMTHING) your old home will also be /media/SOMTHIGNELSE | 10:29 |
| kuru | gnea, ok, actually, I see it | 10:29 |
| kuru | gnea, but how do I tell xorg to use it? | 10:29 |
| === johan350 is now known as johanness_ | ||
| Gnea | kuru: where do you see it? | 10:29 |
| kuru | gnea, here: /usr/lib/dri/i915_dri.so | 10:29 |
| sandhu | i m unable to download video downloadhelper | 10:29 |
| sandhu | i m unable to download video downloadhelper | 10:30 |
| Benkinooby | Dr_Willis, so can i safly remove the old kernel headers too? | 10:30 |
| Gnea | kuru: have you determined which package that file belongs to? | 10:30 |
| twiztid | im probly better off taking a sledge to this piece... lol ok ill give it a go and should i screw up i suppose ill just reinstall from scratch (again) and deal with playonlinux telling me IM wrong | 10:30 |
| Dr_Willis | sandhu: big green 'install' button here dosent work? -? https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/3006/ | 10:30 |
| Dr_Willis | twiztid: or spend some time and learn some shell/path fundamentals.. | 10:31 |
| kuru | Gnea, no.. but judging from your line of questions, I'm doing something wrong :) | 10:31 |
| Dr_Willis | twiztid: or from the live cd. You could just edit the installed systems /etc/fstab and comment out the home entry. then boot back to the installed sytem | 10:32 |
| sandhu | there is no such button | 10:32 |
| Gnea | kuru: heh.... open a terminal and type the following: dpkg -S /usr/lib/dri/i915_dri.so | 10:32 |
| Dr_Willis | twiztid: THEN mount the home partition, and copy it to the /home/ | 10:32 |
| Dr_Willis | sandhu: there is one here.. im on ubuntu 10.10 - using firefox... so you need to clarify what you are usign exactly | 10:32 |
| kuru | gnea, | 10:33 |
| kuru | gnea, libgl1-mesa-dri | 10:33 |

| kuru | Gnea, ok.. that's just the description of the package.. still doesn't tell me how I can configure Xorg to use the driver | 10:34 |

| kalborough | Can anyone help with getting Picasa to run on Ubuntu 10.04? | 10:34 |
| Gnea | kuru: right, so, you need to make sure you have the right driver, so the best thing to do is to look for it: apt-cache search 915 | 10:34 |
| Benkinooby | sandhu, its best, if you click Tools->Add-ons in firefox | 10:35 |
| dinexi | Hello. I've got a trouble while installing lekhonee-gnome in maverick. It requires python-gtkhtml2 but it is a virtual package so it can't be installed. How can I solve this problem? | 10:35 |

| Gnea | kuru: really, you can replace 915 with anything else and you find yourself pleasantly surprised, but yeah, let's fix this problem first | 10:35 |
| Benkinooby | sandhu, a new window will pop up, on that window you want to choose "Get Add-on" on the top left | 10:35 |

| kuru | Gnea, 10.04 (it's years ago.. so you can continue to assume I'm an idiot) :) | 10:38 |

| Dr_Willis | fosser_josh: if you hit ctrl-c on the console it should kill X.. | 10:42 |
| Dr_Willis | fosser_josh: you could make a new user and see if it works for the new user. | 10:43 |
| kuru | Gnea, http://pastebin.com/ZeinuBFY | 10:43 |
| Dr_Willis | sudo adduser billgates, login as billgates, try startx again. | 10:43 |
| fosser_josh | Dr_Willis: i think i hav to try this one | 10:43 |
| Dr_Willis | fosser_josh: if the NEW user works. that would point to a odd user setting problem | 10:43 |
| gobbe | i would checkout logs | 10:43 |
| gobbe | there's 99% sure something | 10:44 |
| Gnea | kuru: and can you pastebin /var/log/Xorg.0.log please? | 10:44 |
| kuru | well.. it's been almost 8 years now.. and configuring Xorg to use the right drivers is still complicated :( | 10:44 |
| gobbe | fosser_josh: ~/.xsession-errors is empthy? | 10:44 |
| Gnea | yeah, ubuntu has changed a lot of that | 10:44 |
| Dr_Willis | ive not needed to touch xorg.conf in years... | 10:44 |
| bluesky | hi everyone. I have got oubuntu 10.04LTS. My update manager can`t update the following package: http://ppa.launchpad.net/plaxx/random-fixes/ubuntu/dists/lucid/main/binary-i386/Packages.gz even if I try with the aptline | 10:44 |

| fosser_josh | but no logs on any console | 10:45 |
| gobbe | fosser_josh: read the file i asked | 10:45 |
| bluesky | gobbe: it simply doesnt add the repository | 10:46 |
| Gnea | kuru: if it helps, try installing pastebinit | 10:46 |
| fisch246 | to do "sudo su" you need to be in the sudoers file or something like that... but what about "sudo shell"? | 10:46 |
| gobbe | bluesky: well, what is the error-message you get? | 10:46 |
| Gnea | fisch246: silliness, use sudo -i | 10:46 |
| gobbe | bluesky: and what is the command you are trying to run | 10:46 |
| bluesky | gobbe: nothing, it just dont work. I cant add the source, the field stays grey. | 10:47 |

| db_loco | hi all. Does anyone got any experience installing VMWare? I need help :( | 10:47 |
| gobbe | bluesky: what you are trying to do? what command you are trying to run? | 10:47 |
| fisch246 | Gnea: and what does that command do? | 10:47 |
| Gnea | !vmware | db_loco | 10:47 |
| gobbe | bluesky: if you try to add the line you pasted, it's not going to work | 10:47 |
| ubottu | db_loco: VMWare is not available in the Ubuntu repositories. Consider using !QEmu or !VirtualBox as alternatives. Instructions for installing VMWare manually are at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VMware | 10:47 |
| kuru | Gna, http://pastebin.com/NkXTC45W | 10:48 |
| Gnea | fisch246: man sudo <-- it will tell you | 10:48 |
| bluesky | gobbe: right | 10:48 |
| kuru | Gnea, but yah, that took awhile to copy/paste | 10:48 |
| db_loco | ubottu: Thanks | 10:48 |
| ubottu | You're welcome! But keep in mind I'm just a bot ;-) | 10:48 |
| gobbe | bluesky: so what you are trying to do? add new ppa? | 10:48 |
| bluesky | gobbe: yes | 10:48 |
| db_loco | Gnea: yup! | 10:48 |
| gobbe | bluesky: how did you try to add it? | 10:49 |
| fosser_josh | gobbe: its saying following mess "34: cant open /home/prathamesh/.profile | 10:49 |
| Dr_Willis | bluesky: theres command line tools to add them. | 10:49 |
| fisch246 | Gnea: ah i suppose i could've just done that in the first place XD but it's just curiosity of mine haha | 10:49 |
| gobbe | fosser_josh: what does ls -ltrha /home/prathamesh/.profile say? | 10:49 |
| Dr_Willis | sudo add-apt-repository ppa:plaxx/random-fixes | 10:49 |

| Dr_Willis | sandhu: give more details when you chat in here.. I imagine very few people have any idea what you are talking about.. (i barely rember you from like an hr+ ago) | 10:51 |
| bluesky | gobbe: update manager ,check | 10:51 |
| Gnea | kuru: according to your logfile, it loaded the vesa driver after it loaded the intel driver. most of the messages seem to indicate it went with the intel driver.. | 10:52 |
| gobbe | bluesky: ok, it means that your ppa is not working. Why you need to add this ppa? | 10:52 |
| sandhu | just now i have download downloadhelper but it is very slow | 10:52 |

| sandhu | just now i have download downloadhelper but it is downloading very slow | 10:52 |
| Gnea | kuru: what exactly is being sluggish? | 10:52 |
| bluesky | gobbe: to be honest, I dont know, but my systems suggested it so i thought I better do it. | 10:53 |
| gobbe | bluesky: hmmh. interesting | 10:53 |
| sandhu | just now i have download downloadhelper but it is downloading very slow | 10:53 |

| DBoyz | how do i install ubuntu-10.10-alternate-amd64 using pendrivelinux? there's no alternate options | 11:01 |
| Dr_Willis | fosser_josh: sounds like permissions may be messed up. try making a totally new user yet and see if it affets them? | 11:02 |
| Dr_Willis | DBoyz: a lot of those tools just look for a specific filename.iso theres also alternative pendrive setup tools out there that may work better. | 11:02 |
| sandhu | ok dr willis thanks to help me out | 11:02 |
| Dr_Willis | sandhu: getting 112kb/sec from Youtube it says | 11:03 |
| DBoyz | okay | 11:03 |
| DBoyz | Dr_Willis: i used to use i386 but i accidentally downloaded amd64, any difference? | 11:04 |
| Psycho_Mario | hi, when i run screen i get a 'welcome page', is there anyway i can skip this page and get straight into screen? | 11:04 |
| q_a_z_steve | how do I downgrade my binutils? | 11:08 |
| red2kic | DBoyz: Dunno if your computer/laptop can handle amd64. I hope so. :o | 11:09 |
| red2kic | !aptpin | q_a_z_steve | 11:09 |
| red2kic | !pin | q_a_z_steve | 11:09 |
| DBoyz | red2kic: how so? | 11:09 |
| DBoyz | why not? | 11:09 |
| red2kic | Meh. ubottu/ | 11:09 |
| Dr_Willis | DBoyz: other then that ir proberly wont work.... :) | 11:09 |
| Dr_Willis | DBoyz: you want 32bit or 64bit on your system? | 11:09 |
| Dr_Willis | Psycho_Mario: start with man screen perhaps. | 11:10 |
| FloodBot3 | !netsplit | 11:10 |
| fosser_josh | gobbe: Dr_Willis: i tried new user by saying "useradd new" and then set passwd by saying "passwd new" and then restart and re login with new user but it also shows me purple color screen no dektop only mouse pointer | 11:10 |
| q_a_z_steve | what the hell was that? | 11:10 |
| red2kic | The rapture. :\ | 11:10 |
| DBoyz | Dr_Willis: 32bit | 11:10 |
| Dr_Willis | fosser_josh: that points to some system wide issue. sounds like gnome may be not starting properly. | 11:10 |
| Shoggoth | hi... how do I configure my Ubuntu 10.10 gnome desktop to start with bluetooth disabled by default? | 11:11 |
| ubottu | q_a_z_steve: pinning is an advanced feature that APT can use to prefer particular packages over others. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/PinningHowto | 11:11 |
| red2kic | DBoyz: It is up to your preferences. People use amd64 to take full advantage of their machines. | 11:11 |
| ubottu | netsplit is when two IRC servers of the same network (like freenode) disconnect from each other, so users on one server stop seeing users on the other. If this is happening now, just relax and enjoy the show. See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Netsplit | 11:11 |
| fosser_josh | Dr_Willis: gobbe : but this time it not showing log in screen again like it happens with my old user prathamesh | 11:11 |
| DBoyz | okay | 11:11 |
| red2kic | !pin | q_a_z_steve | 11:11 |

| fosser_josh | Dr_Willis: gobbe: i can able to log from gui but no dektop and no log in screen again | 11:12 |
| Psycho_Mario | Dr_Willis: i cant find anything in the man... | 11:12 |
| Dr_Willis | fosser_josh: as a nother test for that new user. make a .xsession and put the line in it ' exec xterm ' then see if startx works with just a terminal showing. if that works try 'gnome-session' in the terminal | 11:12 |
| gobbe | fosser_josh: hmmh. have you done any updates, installed anything, or something before this happened at first time? | 11:13 |
| Shoggoth | anyone? | 11:13 |
| red2kic | Shoggoth: Say it again. Lot of people joined in and does not know what you're talking about. No thanks to netsplit. | 11:14 |
| fosser_josh | gobbe: this is 1st time i update my machine regularly but before last log out i uninstall evolution and clamv antivirus and all files of both apps | 11:14 |
| q_a_z_steve | red2kic: maybe I should ask this, I'm looking for binutils or binutils-dev <=2.20.1 how do I manage that? # apt-get install binutils-dev=2.20.1 \ Reading package lists... Done \ Building dependency tree \ Reading state information... Done \ E: Version '2.20.1' for 'binutils-dev' was not found | 11:14 |
| YouArePwned | can anyone tell me how to install extra compiz effects please? | 11:15 |
| Shoggoth | yeah... I noticed that | 11:15 |
| Shoggoth | hi... how do I configure my Ubuntu 10.10 gnome desktop to start with bluetooth disabled by default? | 11:15 |
| share | Shoggoth: you mean the bluetooth service? | 11:15 |
| fosser_josh | Dr_Willis: i m not getting what exactly to do can u send me details properly on personal chat or even here | 11:15 |
| q_a_z_steve | !anyone | YouArePwned | 11:15 |
| Shoggoth | well... I'm not sure how the stack is implemented wrt gnome | 11:15 |
| ubottu | YouArePwned: A large amount of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..." Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out? | 11:15 |
| red2kic | q_a_z_steve: Yes. You want !pin | 11:15 |
| YouArePwned | ok | 11:15 |
| root_ | i messed up my settings somehow and now im getting a "Recovery Menu" | 11:16 |
| YouArePwned | how to install extra compiz effects? :P | 11:16 |
| Shoggoth | there's a panel indicator applet for bluetooth | 11:16 |
| share | Shoggoth: /etc/init.d/bluetooth | 11:16 |
| Shoggoth | essentially I just want to start as normal but with it disabled there | 11:16 |
| q_a_z_steve | !error | YouArePwned | 11:16 |
| red2kic | Shoggoth: Check System --> Preferences --> Startup Apps | 11:16 |
| ubottu | YouArePwned: Please elaborate, your question or issue may not seem clear or detailed enough for people to help you. Please give more detailed information, errors, steps, and possibly configuration files (use the !pastebin to avoid flooding the channel) | 11:16 |
| Dr_Willis | fosser_josh: make afile called .xsession, with one line 'exec xterm', try the startx command again. and see if the desktop starts with a single terminal window showing. | 11:16 |
| share | Shoggoth: yes that you can disable in startup applications | 11:16 |
| Dr_Willis | YouArePwned: thers some in the package manager listings - not installed by default | 11:16 |
| root_ | i wrote down the options i get in this menu but the last one is " root drop to root shell prompt" and if i chose this one i can get to root... | 11:17 |
| Shoggoth | share: no I don't want to disable bluetooth from running I want the service running but the transmitter turned off by default | 11:17 |
| red2kic | !compiz | YouArePwned | 11:17 |

| ActionParsnip | root_: if you delete all the hidden folders in $HOME you will get default gnome settings next time you login... | 11:19 |
| Dr_Willis | root_: you mean reset the system configs? or the users personal settings? | 11:19 |
| glutton | Psycho_Mario: you can start it simply with a command like 'screen bash' | 11:19 |
| q_a_z_steve | or grub root_ ? | 11:19 |
| gobbe | ActionParsnip: that's not good idea | 11:20 |
| gobbe | ActionParsnip: you should not delete all .-folders without knowing what you do | 11:20 |
| q_a_z_steve | I'm with gobbe | 11:20 |
| gobbe | ActionParsnip: you will then delete your gnugpg-keys etc | 11:20 |
| glutton | Psycho_Mario: or put 'startup_message off' in some screenrc file (from the manpage :) | 11:20 |
| ActionParsnip | root_: also running irc clients as root is a really BAD idea | 11:22 |
| frold | does anyone know if Voodler works on wine? | 11:22 |
| Psycho_Mario | glutton: that works perfect. is there anyway i can add this to ~/.screenrc so i only need to type 'screen'? | 11:22 |
| Dr_Willis | !appdb | frold | 11:22 |
| ubottu | frold: The Wine Application DB is a database of applications and help for !Windows programs that run under !WINE: http://appdb.winehq.org - Join #winehq for application help | 11:22 |
| ActionParsnip | !appdb | frold | 11:22 |
| ActionParsnip | gobbe: what isn't? | 11:22 |
| root_ | can people access my computer or something if im in root?? | 11:22 |
| frold | ahh I did try #wine not #winehd - #wine is a closed channel. Thans!! | 11:22 |
| ActionParsnip | root_: it significantly reduces your security | 11:22 |
| Dr_Willis | Psycho_Mario: http://www.softpanorama.org/Utilities/Screen/screenrc_examples.shtml | 11:22 |
| ActionParsnip | root_: its one reason why the account is disabled, yet people still enable the account, go figure | 11:22 |
| gobbe | ActionParsnip: deleting all hidden folders from home | 11:22 |
| gobbe | ActionParsnip: that will delete lots of folders, more than just gnome-ones | 11:22 |
| Dr_Willis | Psycho_Mario: 'startup_message off' | 11:22 |
| root_ | i am using a different partition.. i dont care about this one.. its backtrack... my normal partition is ubuntu... but if i load the root shell prompt and type startx i get loaded into the root??? | 11:22 |
| Psycho_Mario | Dr_Willis: works, thanks | 11:23 |
| Dr_Willis | root_: startx while running as root.. would startup up X as root.... | 11:23 |
| root_ | dr_willis: i appriciate the info but i am really new to linux and dont know what that means | 11:23 |
| thousands | it means X could do absolutely anything to your machine | 11:24 |
| fosser_josh | Dr_Willis: gobbe: what commands should i use to create new user | 11:25 |
| gobbe | fosser_josh: sudo adduser | 11:25 |
| root_ | thousands: what is x.. im so confused... | 11:25 |
| thousands | x is the basis for your desktop. windows and stuff. I think | 11:25 |
| Dr_Willis | fosser_josh: 'sudo adduser newusername' is all i ever use. | 11:26 |
| Dr_Willis | root_: time to spend some time learning linux basics and fundamentals I guess. | 11:26 |
| Dr_Willis | !X | 11:27 |
| ubottu | The X Window System is the part of your system that's responsible for graphical output. To restart your X, type « sudo /etc/init.d/?dm restart » in a console - To fix screen resolution or other X problems: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/X/Config/Resolution | 11:27 |
| fosser_josh | Dr_Willis: gobbe: do i need to specify shell and home directory | 11:27 |
| root_ | dr_willis: agreed... im learning.. bit by bit.. | 11:27 |
| Dr_Willis | fosser_josh: hit enter.. use defaults | 11:27 |
| epl | root_: root is the "superuser" account of a linux computer, kind of like the Administrator account on a windows computer. It is bad security practice to run applications as the root user unless they absolutely need it. X is the graphical subsystem of your computer. It can be started by executing startx but is normally started by a display manager such as GDM when the computer boots | 11:27 |
| root_ | better than i was a month ago.. thats for sure.. but i do too much experimenting | 11:27 |
| epl | root_: experimenting is good! :) | 11:28 |
| Dr_Willis | root_: use virtual box - to experiment in. | 11:28 |
| ActionParsnip | gobbe: user wanted desktop defaults, so deleting the fodlers will achiene this :0 | 11:28 |
| crawler | hi. how do i list which packages were installed by me, as opposed to the ones that shipped with the distro?? | 11:28 |
| root_ | epl: thank you very much... so running as root i could damage my own system .. | 11:29 |
| Benkinooby | hi, anyone experienced that the install of ubuntu is not going smoothly. i always af th press a key when the install gets stuck! | 11:29 |
| gobbe | ActionParsnip: it will delete lots more also | 11:29 |
| Dr_Willis | crawler: im not sure there exist such a list on the system. there might be some web sites that have a list. but even then. the install process can install differnt things during install. | 11:29 |
| gobbe | ActionParsnip: so don't tell anyone to delete all .-files just to get desktop defaults | 11:29 |
| MaxMeents1 | been a win user for 18 years, I've got it setup to run like its a mac and its beautiful, i saw this room had 1400 people in it and I'm super curious why ubuntu is so popular, what does it do better than windows (other than security) | 11:30 |
| q_a_z_steve | red2kic: Sorry, no. !=pinning, holding, or backports. | 11:30 |
| Dr_Willis | ubuntu tweak has a tool to 'reset gnome' back to defaults.. i recall. | 11:30 |
| q_a_z_steve | !binutils | 11:30 |
| ActionParsnip | crawler: you could boot the liveCD and run: dpkg -l > original.txt copy the file to the internal partition or usb stick, then boot to the installed OS and run: dpkg -l > ~/current.txt you can then compare the files to see what is different | 11:30 |
| epl | root_: yeah, running as root would be the same as running everything through sudo | 11:30 |
| root_ | dr_willis: lesson learned.. as soon as im fixed i will be using virtual box to experiement in... i just added lubuntu and xubuntu desktops to my packages.. from the software center and i think thats the source of my problem | 11:30 |
| Dr_Willis | MaxMeents1: install it to 200 machines for the same cost... :) Free.... | 11:30 |
| MaxMeents1 | oh damn, no way | 11:30 |
| q_a_z_steve | red2kic: binutils for 10.10 is version 2.20.51 | 11:31 |
| Dr_Willis | root_: installing lubuntu-desktop shouldent really affect thingsd.. but im not even sure what your orignal problem is | 11:31 |
| yuler | root_: you might try reading the PDF's @ http://fullcirclemagazine.org for linux/ubuntu fundamentals/tutorials/etc | 11:31 |
| root_ | dr_willis: can i use ubuntu tweak to fix my boot than.. | 11:31 |
| MaxMeents1 | I take it its open source? | 11:31 |
| share | back | 11:31 |
| crawler | ActionParsnip: thanks, thats a very clever idea! | 11:31 |
| Dr_Willis | root_: no idea what your problem is/was.. | 11:31 |
| q_a_z_steve | red2kic: I want <=2.20.1 | 11:31 |
| MaxMeents1 | is the source code avaialbe for everything?? | 11:31 |
| ActionParsnip | MaxMeents1: lower system use in general, more developers, friendlier support, free support | 11:31 |
| uth | someone can help me with my ubuntu 10.4 problems : no sound, and graphics fonctions | 11:31 |
| red2kic | q_a_z_steve: Apparently synaptic have older version options. Try that. | 11:31 |
| root_ | dr_willis: when i installed lubuntu-desktop it changed my login screen to lubuntu login screen | 11:31 |
| ActionParsnip | crawler: simple solutions work best imho dude | 11:31 |

| ddt_ | I have Ubuntu 10 installed on hdd from live cd. I want to put Grub on a floppy disk. How to do that? Thank you. | 11:36 |
| root_ | it wont load the login screen at all... so it doesnt matter what it looks like.. i just get a few options from some recovery menu | 11:36 |
| ebra | hey | 11:36 |
| Dr_Willis | ddt_: you can put grub on the MBR of other devices ive noticed by Carefull use of the 'sudo dpkg-reconfigure grub-pc' command.. and selecting the proper devices. | 11:36 |
| ActionParsnip | ddt_: there is a grub boot floppy on pendrivelinux which will boot USB device if the bios cannot | 11:36 |
| root_ | i get options including resume normal boot.. but that just goes back to the recovery menu like a loop | 11:36 |
| uth | thank ActionParsnip then I have the message "Attente de réponse du système sonore", nothing more | 11:36 |
| root_ | second option is clean, but it didnt do anything. third is dpkg repair broken packeges but it trys to use the internet thats not connected yet... | 11:36 |
| abhijain | red2kic: i686 means 32 bit | 11:36 |
| ubottu | root_: grub is the default boot manager for Ubuntu releases before 9.10 (Karmic). Lost GRUB after installing Windows? See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestoreGrub - GRUB how-tos: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto - See !grub2 for Karmic onwards. | 11:36 |
| db_loco | if I type 'gksudo bash ./[filename]' will ubuntu find the file or would I need to type he whole directory and if so, how do you start it? would it be /home/[username]/documents/[filename] ???? help please :) | 11:37 |
| red2kic | abhijain: Correct. | 11:37 |
| q_a_z_steve | root_: google fix grub | 11:37 |
| abhijain | red2kic: thanx | 11:37 |
| red2kic | abhijain: x86_64 = 64bit | 11:37 |
| Lunar_Lamp | What's the name of the applet in the systray that looks like an envelope; clicking on it gives you options for chat etc. I've lost mine and can't work out how to restore it. | 11:37 |
| red2kic | Lunar_Lamp: Indicator, me think. | 11:37 |
| Dr_Willis | Err.. if his sytem is going to the recovery menu on the system.. then grub is booting i thought. | 11:37 |
| ddt_ | Dr_Willis - and it will grub stay on HDD too? Because I want to have it on HDD and on FDD too. | 11:37 |
| ebra | hello there i said I have an issue with iptables | 11:37 |
| Dr_Willis | !resetpanel | Lunar_Lamp | 11:37 |
| ubottu | Lunar_Lamp: To reset the panel to defaults, type this in a !terminal: « gconftool --recursive-unset /apps/panel && killall gnome-panel » | 11:37 |
| root_ | it loads passed the grub tho... it shows the recovery menu just when the login screen would have shown up | 11:37 |
| ebra | any one have an idea | 11:37 |
| db_loco | Dr_Willis: see my msg before. The path is what i have problems with. not sure how Ubuntu directory works | 11:38 |
| root_ | i think my grub is fine | 11:38 |
| kingUser1 | does anyone know how you can unlock an android phone? | 11:38 |
| Dr_Willis | ddt_: it should stay | 11:38 |
| red2kic | Dr_Willis: Oh sure. That's easy. :) | 11:38 |
| Lunar_Lamp | Dr_Willis: I don't really want to do that, as it will lose my current settings, won't it? | 11:38 |

| q_a_z_steve | root_: well no, it's missing the OS you want... How is that fine? | 11:38 |
| Dr_Willis | Lunar_Lamp: it will reset the panel back to defaults. | 11:38 |
| epl | root_: are you booting into "rescue" mode by mistake? | 11:38 |
| Dr_Willis | Lunar_Lamp: thats it. | 11:38 |
| epl | kingUser1: wrong channel for that | 11:39 |
| Lunar_Lamp | Dr_Willis: thanks that's useful knowledge, but red2kic's statement of the name was sufficient to restore it :-) | 11:39 |
| ddt_ | Dr_Willis, ActionParsnip - thank you for help | 11:39 |
| Dr_Willis | db_loco: so you need some tutoials on how the linux filesystem works? | 11:39 |
| Dr_Willis | Lunar_Lamp: normally removeing that mail icon. also removes the whole system tray thang.. | 11:39 |
| epl | root_: err.. recovery mode | 11:39 |
| q_a_z_steve | red2kic: what part of !=backports (because it doesn't mean old)?? | 11:39 |
| db_loco | Dr_Willis: it appears so. I'll look into the website - thanks | 11:39 |
| ActionParsnip | db_loco: you can use relative paths like you say, or if you want to use absolute paths (from the / folder) that is ok too | 11:40 |
| root_ | epl: please tell me you are willing to help me.. | 11:40 |
| red2kic | q_a_z_steve: That's for updated stuffs such as modules, firmware. | 11:40 |
| ActionParsnip | ddt_: np bro | 11:40 |
| red2kic | !backports | q_a_z_steve | 11:40 |

| ActionParsnip | I: and just ask | 11:40 |
| fosser_josh | Dr_Willis: but now how to add home directory to new user | 11:40 |
| q_a_z_steve | !error | I | 11:40 |
| ubottu | I: Please elaborate, your question or issue may not seem clear or detailed enough for people to help you. Please give more detailed information, errors, steps, and possibly configuration files (use the !pastebin to avoid flooding the channel) | 11:40 |
| ActionParsnip | I: I suggest you change your nick, when anyone types 'I' you will get highlighted | 11:41 |

| stealthc | flaky internet tonight | 11:41 |
| db_loco | ActionParsnip: thanks - how do i change to the folder? | 11:41 |
| ActionParsnip | I: like if someone types "I am having an issue", your name will highlight | 11:41 |
| q_a_z_steve | red2kic: every article you've pointed me to talks about going forward. Dude, 51 > 1. Help me find an old repos, or tell me to build, none of pinning, holding, backports, or any of this is applicable. | 11:41 |
| red2kic | I am doing well. | 11:41 |
| root_ | is this recovery menu something anyone knows anything about.. | 11:41 |
| I | I just installed Ubuntu, and I go to click the connection thing, but no wifi networks come up and it says it's disconnected. | 11:42 |
| red2kic | q_a_z_steve: Meh. Try packages. | 11:42 |
| ActionParsnip | db_loco: just use ./foldername/foldername/filename etc, or you can use /home/username/foldername/foldername/filename etc, both are fine | 11:42 |
| red2kic | !packages | q_a_z_steve | 11:42 |
| ubottu | q_a_z_steve: You can browse and search for Ubuntu packages using !Synaptic, !KPackageKit, !Adept, "apt-cache search <keywords or regex>", or online at http://packages.ubuntu.com - Ubuntu has about 20000 packages available, so please *search* for an official package before installing things in awkward ways! | 11:42 |
| Vuokko | Hi! is it possible to run update-manager -d in download mode only? I would have now fast internet, but not time for upgrade | 11:42 |
| stealthc | I'm thinking I'll have to have users run a script onetime by clicking on a launcher for it, and install a monitoring agent to autorun for approved thumbdrives... seems like the only fix for this | 11:42 |
| red2kic | q_a_z_steve: You could find older packages online -- Maybe. | 11:42 |
| sacarlson | I wish I was smart | 11:42 |
| gobbe | I: goto system->administration->additional drivers | 11:42 |
| bazhang | Vuokko, you dont want to do that. | 11:42 |
| q_a_z_steve | red2kic: I know because I just tried all of them, I have 94 repos. hits and yet as I am in 10.10 I am stuck in the future. | 11:42 |
| ActionParsnip | sacarlson: study | 11:42 |
| db_loco | ActionParsnip, Thanks | 11:42 |
| gobbe | I: you might be using broadcom-wireless which needs drivers | 11:42 |
| root_ | im doomed huh?? | 11:42 |
| bazhang | Vuokko, that will land you with the alpha 1 | 11:42 |
| q_a_z_steve | !Synaptic binutils=2.20.1 | 11:42 |
| q_a_z_steve | !Synaptic binutils | 11:43 |
| ActionParsnip | db_loco: if its in a script then I suggest you use absolute, just to be double sure | 11:43 |
| Vuokko | bazhang: this is from 2009 | 11:43 |
| red2kic | q_a_z_steve: Why are you trying to go back to old binutils? | 11:43 |
| q_a_z_steve | Damn it | 11:43 |
| I | gobbe: where's system? | 11:43 |
| Dr_Willis | Hmm.. Ive just noticed that the 'Me Applet' at the top right. lets me connect to my facebook account.. but its failing with an authication failuer error.. anyone else managed to connect via it? | 11:43 |
| q_a_z_steve | red2kic: using 10.10 as host to build LFS | 11:43 |
| ActionParsnip | I: if you run: sudo lshw -C network you will see your wireless chip and you can use it to find guides | 11:43 |
| Vuokko | so upgrading would bew quite good idea | 11:43 |
| ActionParsnip | q_a_z_steve: factoids don't have spaces | 11:44 |
| bazhang | Vuokko, yes, but not using that command | 11:44 |
| I | k, I'll try. | 11:44 |
| rww | ActionParsnip: they can, actually ;) | 11:44 |
| bazhang | !upgrade | Vuokko please have a read | 11:44 |

| ActionParsnip | q_a_z_steve: what about it? | 11:45 |
| nerxgas | cool | 11:45 |
| ActionParsnip | nerxgas: same as windows | 11:45 |
| q_a_z_steve | wow, I have to go back that far red2kic? nice call | 11:45 |
| rww | ActionParsnip: no, factoids can have spaces in them. !free speech would be an example. | 11:45 |
| ActionParsnip | rww: ahhhh, interesting | 11:45 |
| ActionParsnip | rww: thought she'd se space as an option on the first word, my bad | 11:46 |
| rww | probably more, but I'm blanking on them. they're confusing, so I guess we don't tend to do it | 11:46 |
| root_ | anyone please... i really need help.. my computer wont start at all.. when i boot up.. the grub offers different kernels.. i choose the normal one.. on the top of the list.. i have bootscreen off.. the texts that scroll accross the screen seem normal.. than right as the login screen is about to load i get a "recovery menu" instead... how can i fix this.. | 11:46 |
| q_a_z_steve | ActionParsnip: I need to find a way, lucid I guess, at this point possibly, of getting version 2.20.1 | 11:46 |
| ActionParsnip | root_: boot to liveCD and reinstate grub2 there | 11:46 |
| red2kic | q_a_z_steve: A true linux does not have distro. You could use that version, I presume. | 11:46 |

| q_a_z_steve | red2kic: Thought it was more Knoppix | 11:51 |
| Dr_Willis | fosser_josh: if the GDM login screen does work. You could try installing an alternative window maanger like 'icewm' (sudo apt-get install icewm) and select icewm from the GDM menus. and see if that works.. | 11:51 |

| ActionParsnip | upsla: http://forcespike.altervista.org/articles/connecting-conexant-usb-modem.php | 11:53 |
| Dr_Willis | fosser_josh: it may be easier.. but you could just try installing icewm and see if that works from the gdm login screen | 11:54 |

| magik- | Coomon folks.. what's the best bandwith monitor/sniffer/logger out there? | 11:55 |
| ActionParsnip | magik-: there is no single best app for ANYTHING | 11:55 |
| ActionParsnip | magik-: so the answer is none, and all simultaneously | 11:56 |
| q_a_z_steve | magik-: wireshark is good. Polls suck | 11:56 |
| Dr_Willis | fosser_josh: i cant figure out if that file name is .Xsession, .xsession, or .xinitrc without logging out and trying it. You could make a file and copy uit to all 3 of those names. :) | 11:56 |

| ubottu | Usually, there is no single "best" application to perform a given task. It's up to you to choose, depending on your preferences, features you require, and other factors. Do NOT take polls in the channel. If you insist on getting people's opinions, ask BestBot in #ubuntu-bots. | 11:56 |

| zs1otb_ | Ubunut 9.10 on computer. I connect a Nokia E71 to this machine but the computer does not see the memory cards via the usb port. On 3 other machines the card is seen and recognized | 11:56 |
| upsla | actionparsnip:i going through it. feels useful. | 11:56 |
| jrib | Dr_Willis: depends on what you're looking for. ~/.xsession will get used by gdm as the "user's xsession script" and ~/.xinitrc will get used by startx | 11:57 |
| magik- | haha thanks... wireshark i thought needed xwin.. its just a console server so I need to access through web browser.. i'll check it out | 11:57 |
| ActionParsnip | upsla: all i searched for was: ubuntu 0572:cb00 and it appeared.... | 11:57 |
| q_a_z_steve | raven turns off and doesn't come back on? | 11:57 |

| scriptwarlock | any ideas about this? "compiling error: notification development headers not found".. im using lucid to compilie | 11:57 |
| zs1otb_ | <q_a_z_steve> Ubunut 9.10 on computer. I connect a Nokia E71 to this machine but the computer does not see the memory cards via the usb port. On 3 other machines the card is seen and recognized | 11:57 |
| jrib | scriptwarlock: to compile what? | 11:58 |
| q_a_z_steve | !lucid | 11:58 |
| ubottu | Ubuntu 10.04 LTS (Lucid Lynx) was the twelfth release of Ubuntu. Download http://releases.ubuntu.com/10.04/ - Release Info: http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/releasenotes/1004 | 11:58 |
| raven | q_a_z_steve, do yyou know what i could do? | 11:58 |
| Dr_Willis | jrib: i was thiniing startx also did .xsession if there was no .xinitrc | 11:58 |
| scriptwarlock | jrib, a cyber timer | 11:58 |
| q_a_z_steve | oh... right. Thought maybe it was out of support. sorry. | 11:58 |
| jrib | scriptwarlock: that you wrote? | 11:58 |
| juk | google translate used espeak, recently they switched to human like version, what is that software? | 11:58 |
| Dr_Willis | jrib: but is is .xsession and not .Xsession correct? | 11:58 |
| jrib | Dr_Willis: I don't know if .Xsession works or not, just know that .xsession does work :) | 11:59 |
| scriptwarlock | jrib, that i help to test and correct some stuff | 11:59 |
| q_a_z_steve | raven I think we need errors or SOMETHING, have you tried forums? | 11:59 |
| jrib | scriptwarlock: can you link me to the project's page? | 11:59 |
| q_a_z_steve | raven what hardware? | 11:59 |
| scriptwarlock | jrib, mkahawa.net | 11:59 |
| raven | q_a_z_steve, there is no o error appearing | 11:59 |
| jrib | !compile > scriptwarlock | 12:00 |
| ubottu | scriptwarlock, please see my private message | 12:00 |
| fosser_josh1 | Dr_Willis: i installed icewm now what | 12:00 |
| Dr_Willis | fosser_josh1: can you get to the GDM login screen? | 12:00 |
| Dr_Willis | fosser_josh1: 'sudo service gdm start' if its not running | 12:00 |
| jrib | scriptwarlock: you need to install the corresponding -dev packages for the libraries required to build the software. The software's documentation should list what you need. See ubottu's link for more info | 12:00 |
| q_a_z_steve | raven have you tried CTRL+ALT+F1 through F7? | 12:01 |
| oCean | scriptwarlock: wight be libstartup-notification0-dev package | 12:01 |
| raven | q_a_z_steve, yes | 12:01 |
| jrib | scriptwarlock: actually... the site you linked me to claims to have debs available for ubuntu, why aren't you using them? | 12:01 |

| dirty-harry | uvnc reverse to ssvnc - encryption question | 12:01 |
| scriptwarlock | jrib, is it present in meerkat? | 12:02 |
| q_a_z_steve | raven reboot and interrupt it? | 12:02 |
| zs1otb_ | <q_a_z_steve> I have 2 machines with 9.10 and 2 with 10.04. On one 91.0 when a Nokia E71 is plugged and mass storage is selected on the Nokia, the 9.10 sees the card but on other 9.10 not. Ant ideas? | 12:02 |
| scriptwarlock | jrib, i mean the notification | 12:02 |
| fosser_josh1 | Dr_Willis: Now i m able to log in and got desktop too but this desktop is totally different | 12:02 |
| dirty-harry | is it just this -plugin in uvnc and that's it? | 12:02 |
| q_a_z_steve | !ideas | zs1otb_ | 12:02 |
| jrib | scriptwarlock: don't worry about that, just use the debs that they provide instead of compiling. Is there a reason you can't do that? | 12:02 |

| q_a_z_steve | grr | 12:02 |
| Dr_Willis | fosser_josh1: yes.. thats icewm | 12:02 |
| fosser_josh1 | Dr_Willis: wat to do to get back to gnome desktop | 12:02 |
| scriptwarlock | jrib, i need to check those files uploaded in sourceforge just for lucid thats why i compile | 12:03 |
| Dr_Willis | fosser_josh1: so this points to your gnome settings/install being the problem | 12:03 |
| jrib | scriptwarlock: I don't understand | 12:03 |
| raven | q_a_z_steve, not yet | 12:03 |
| q_a_z_steve | no. I was looking for a nice way to say this. "I don't know, I'm just trying to facilitate your process..." | 12:03 |
| fosser_josh1 | Dr_Willis: so now how to solve dat problem | 12:03 |
| Dr_Willis | fosser_josh1: at least now you h ave a useable desktop .. you can try to reinstall gnome-desktop now | 12:03 |
| fosser_josh1 | k | 12:03 |
| Dr_Willis | Anyone recall the 'proper' way to totally reinstall gnome? | 12:03 |
| q_a_z_steve | raven not a POST issue right? It does show some things? | 12:04 |
| red2kic | Dr_Willis: --reinstall | 12:04 |
| jrib | fosser_josh1, Dr_Willis: do you mind summarizing the issue? | 12:04 |
| raven | q_a_z_steve, it does not show anything | 12:04 |
| kernix | hi all | 12:04 |
| q_a_z_steve | Not BIOS or anything? Then you've got a bigger problem on your hands | 12:04 |
| Dr_Willis | jrib: users cant login to gnome desktop , pointer only, no desktop. new user has same issues. installed icewm - works... | 12:05 |
| q_a_z_steve | raven I say bigger, meaning outside OS, not necessarily catastrophic | 12:05 |
| Dr_Willis | jrib: its fosser_josh1 having the issue. :) | 12:05 |
| fosser_josh1 | jrib: problem was , i was unable to log in in my system. after log in screen wen i enter passwd, it returns to log in screen again | 12:05 |
| fosser_josh1 | jrib | 12:05 |
| Dr_Willis | fosser_josh1: that sumamrized it correctly? :) | 12:05 |
| raven | q_a_z_steve, oh that you mean - it boots up until ubuntu gets loaded and then it is not possible to interrupt or change by f1tof7 - monitor simply turns off | 12:06 |
| juk | fosser_josh1: i had exacly same problem | 12:06 |
| jrib | fosser_josh1: what version of ubuntu? Did it ever work? What happened between it working and not working? | 12:06 |
| Dr_Willis | he could try doing a 'gnome-session' from a xterm only desktop to look for errors.. but im not sure of an easy way tod o that. | 12:06 |
| fosser_josh1 | jrib: so i install icewm now now it working but i want gnome-desktop back | 12:06 |
| juk | fosser_josh1: after going for natty | 12:06 |
| fosser_josh1 | jrib: i m using ubuntu 10.04 | 12:06 |
| q_a_z_steve | raven then interrupt grub, tap 'e' I think. or 'a'. | 12:06 |
| Marchitos | how can i setup an ftp mirror for ubuntu? | 12:07 |
| Marchitos | i wanted to install ubuntu from my local network | 12:07 |
| q_a_z_steve | raven why did you use text install btw? | 12:07 |
| Marchitos | i have a server running vsfptd ( with suse ) | 12:07 |
| jrib | Dr_Willis: removing some gtk libary and reinstalling ubuntu-desktop would reinstall everything but unless he modified the installed files somehow, I doubt it would help | 12:07 |
| q_a_z_steve | !info PXE | Marchitos | 12:07 |
| ubottu | Marchitos: Package PXE does not exist in maverick | 12:07 |
| raven | q_a_z_steve, not possible to interrupt grub | 12:08 |
| Marchitos | PXE is already setup | 12:08 |
| scriptwarlock | oCean, no luck but then maybe i can disable this when compiling | 12:08 |
| jrib | fosser_josh1: and my other two questions? :) did it ever work? What happened between it working and it not working? | 12:08 |
| Marchitos | ubuntu can boot from PXE | 12:08 |
| Marchitos | now i have to create a mirror on my LAN | 12:08 |
| q_a_z_steve | raven just like bios or windows F8, yes it is. I think. It better be. | 12:08 |
| fosser_josh1 | jrib: today only this happend. now i m using icewm | 12:09 |
| raven | q_a_z_steve, but ctrl alt del works - possible that the graphics card driver is broken? | 12:09 |
| jrib | fosser_josh1: what did you do during the last time it worked? | 12:09 |
| juk | i felt, woke up, everything was black | 12:09 |
| q_a_z_steve | raven what card? | 12:09 |
| q_a_z_steve | that's why I started asking what hardware. | 12:10 |
| fosser_josh1 | jrib: i just removed all file of evolution and calmv av | 12:10 |
| jrib | fosser_josh1: how? | 12:10 |
| fosser_josh1 | jrib: throught synaptic | 12:10 |
| q_a_z_steve | fosser_josh1: calm? Is it new ? :P | 12:10 |
| raven | q_a_z_steve, ill put another card into it | 12:10 |
| jrib | fosser_josh1: pastebin /etc/apt/sources.list and the contents of ~/.xsession-errors after an unsuccessful login attempt with your NEW USER | 12:11 |
| fosser_josh1 | q_a_z_steve: i dont know exat name but dats a antivirus utility which i dont wanted so i removed | 12:11 |
| fosser_josh1 | jrib: k wait | 12:11 |
| q_a_z_steve | fosser_josh1: clamAV, I was messing with you. | 12:11 |
| q_a_z_steve | raven If you see grub your card is fine | 12:12 |
| q_a_z_steve | raven why did you use text install? | 12:12 |
| q_a_z_steve | what hardware? | 12:12 |

| q_a_z_steve | blue112: you want #irc-newbies, not sure which server | 12:15 |
| F|shie | something like we do with nfs exports | 12:15 |
| jrib | F|shie: https://help.ubuntu.com/8.04/serverguide/C/windows-networking.html if you want to use samba. Do you need to use nfs? | 12:15 |
| blue112 | q_a_z_steve, sure, thanks. | 12:15 |
| blue112 | But that was kinda meta-physical question for sure ._. | 12:16 |
| F|shie | samba is for windows to linux sharing... | 12:16 |
| jrib | F|shie: no, you can use it for linux to linux too | 12:16 |
| q_a_z_steve | blue112: no, not really. | 12:16 |
| blue112 | Or linux to windows, for sure. | 12:16 |
| F|shie | im running ubuntu on both...does tat mean i still have to use samba to get access to windows partition on client | 12:16 |

| jrib | F|shie: it shouldn't matter I think, here's the nfs documentation: https://help.ubuntu.com/8.04/serverguide/C/network-file-system.html But like I said, you can use either. So if you don't have a particular preference for nfs and samba "just works", I'd go with that | 12:18 |

| Evilenko | hmm I find a project Mac on Linux | 13:10 |
| Evilenko | gone try it out | 13:10 |
| Evilenko | http://mac-on-linux.sourceforge.net/wiki/index.php/FAQ | 13:10 |
| IceCas | Method of deleting the Kingston Data traveler Privacy isoFS and making it just a mass USB device? It's sorta like the Sansa U3 garbage | 13:10 |
| === petr is now known as qqqqqqq | ||
| Dr_Willis | IceCas: for U3 - i repartioned the flash drive. | 13:11 |
| q_a_z_steve | adammw111: crash report? | 13:11 |
| q_a_z_steve | !crash | 13:11 |
| ubottu | For help debugging your program, please see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebuggingProcedures | 13:11 |
| Dr_Willis | IceCas: u3 also had some 'removeal' tool that worked in windows and did the same thing as repartioning it. | 13:11 |
| q_a_z_steve | IceCas: dd? | 13:11 |
| IceCas | Dr_Willis, Yes..but this is from a Data Traveler or some other junk it's for a Kingston brand. I dont think it's even support on their website any longer | 13:11 |
| IceCas | q_a_z_steve, Can I DD an sr device? | 13:12 |
| === gio is now known as Guest52377 | ||
| q_a_z_steve | IceCas: sorry, "sr"? | 13:12 |
| Dr_Willis | IceCas: did youy try fdisk/gparted? | 13:12 |
| Dr_Willis | IceCas: you can use dd on most anything.. | 13:13 |
| Evilenko | mac on linux is just for powerpc.. its old | 13:13 |
| q_a_z_steve | Dr_Willis: "most" ? | 13:13 |
| q_a_z_steve | 13:13 | |
| ubottu | While Google is useful for helpers, many newer users don't have the google-fu yet. Please don't tell people to "google it" when they ask a question. | 13:13 |
| ActionParsnip | Evilenko: how do you get mac on linux? | 13:13 |
| Evilenko | http://mac-on-linux.sourceforge.net/wiki/index.php/Installation_Instructions | 13:14 |
| IceCas | q_a_z_steve, sr is that it shows up as a SCSI cdrom. I guess. CD-Rom devices are usually read only cuz their loop or whatever | 13:14 |
| Evilenko | there is the instructions | 13:14 |
| Dr_Willis | q_a_z_steve: cant dd to a read only device. :) | 13:14 |
| IceCas | Dr_Willis, dd failed on the sr1 device it's read only | 13:14 |
| Dr_Willis | IceCas: try fdisk/gparted yet? | 13:15 |
| q_a_z_steve | mount rw | 13:15 |
| Dr_Willis | q_a_z_steve: the /dev/XXX entry is reporting its a cdrom. thats not going to work i imagine. | 13:15 |
| q_a_z_steve | At least TRY it. | 13:15 |
| IceCas | q_a_z_steve, I dont think you can mount a cdrom device as rw | 13:15 |
| ActionParsnip | Evilenko: I think you mean: http://sourceforge.net/projects/mac4lin/ which is barely 2 years old, but works fine. It's hardly old | 13:16 |
| Dr_Willis | mount it then dd what? you are still dding the device.. not the filesystem on the device. | 13:16 |
| IceCas | Dr_Willis, I tried Gparted earlier but it wasnt detected. Though I used the GUI. How would I go about using fdisk? | 13:16 |
| q_a_z_steve | IceCas: how does mount know it's a CD, unless you tell it... I don't think -o loop is the problem. | 13:16 |
| Evilenko | no mac4lin is a theme, to make your ubuntu desktop look like Mac OS X | 13:16 |
| Dr_Willis | IceCas: sudo fdisk /dev/whatever | 13:16 |
| Dr_Willis | IceCas: but whats the core device to use. :) if the flash is partioned... thats the tricky bit. | 13:17 |
| Evilenko | I want to run mac software on ubuntu/linux.. Like there is wine to run windows software | 13:17 |
| nesbitt | can anyone tell me how to get my resolv.conf file to have the correct nameserver? it keeps getting overwitten with no nameserver in it | 13:17 |
| zootcat | Dr_Willis: do dmesg | tail and see *right* sdX for you | 13:17 |
| zootcat | nesbitt: maybe you're using DHCP in your network manager? | 13:17 |
| q_a_z_steve | Dr_Willis: dd if=/dev/zero of/dev/sr(#) ?? | 13:17 |
| Dr_Willis | zootcat: these u3/special usb flash drives show up as 2 devices.. one as a 'usb cdrom' other as a normal usb flash drive. | 13:17 |
| ActionParsnip | Evilenko: your link has this at the bottom: This page was last modified 23:18, 1 January 2011. | 13:18 |
| q_a_z_steve | !anyone > nesbitt | 13:18 |
| ubottu | nesbitt, please see my private message | 13:18 |
| nesbitt | zootcat: i'm running ubuntu server, is network manager just the graphical tool? | 13:18 |
| ActionParsnip | Evilenko: so its little over 8 days old, is that old? | 13:18 |
| IceCas | Dr_Willis, I didnt understand that | 13:18 |
| Dr_Willis | q_a_z_steve: you could try dding the /dev/sdX if of the usb part... | 13:18 |
| IceCas | q_a_z_steve, I dont know how it knows. It got automounted | 13:18 |
| Dr_Willis | ive only had to 'fix' a few U3's in the past. not seen any Privacy ISOFS feature | 13:19 |
| q_a_z_steve | IceCas: that's my point | 13:19 |
| zootcat | nesbitt: nope, it's a mixin of graphical and system tools. It's default in Ubuntu desktop, but I'm not sure whether it's in Server too | 13:19 |
| q_a_z_steve | !umount | 13:19 |
| Dr_Willis | IceCas: use mount command and see what it mounted where. | 13:19 |

| q_a_z_steve | Can we be done with emulators now? | 13:20 |
| IceCas | Dr_Willis, oh I know where it's mounted thanks. I will try q_a_z_steve, method first out of curiosity just to see if it works. Then I'll fdisk it. | 13:20 |
| Jenk | Any application that auto-generates a '.deb' package from source code ? | 13:20 |
| Dr_Willis | http://www.kingston.com/flash/DTVaultPrivacy.asp - its possible this "privacy' thing - is some actual special bit of hardware in the flash drive as well. very differnt then how U3 works | 13:21 |
| IceCas | Dr_Willis, That's what I am afraid of | 13:21 |

| q_a_z_steve | !info .deb | Jenk | 13:21 |
| zootcat | nesbitt: so, I guess dhcp client does the *bad* thing about dropping your resolv.conf, so you should try digging that direction | 13:21 |
| ubottu | Jenk: Package .deb does not exist in maverick | 13:21 |
| st__ | Jenk, see deb-devel | 13:21 |
| Jenk | Any application that auto-generates a Ubuntu installer package from source code ? | 13:22 |
| nesbitt | zootcat: ok, thanks. haven't worked it out yet, but i'll keep looking! | 13:22 |
| Dr_Willis | Jenk: theres one.. but i forget its name.. :) its not really reccomended to use it. | 13:22 |

| Jenk | Dr_Willis, Any alternatives ? | 13:23 |
| q_a_z_steve | Jenk: what is your goal? | 13:23 |
| st__ | Jenk, use tarballs | 13:23 |
| Dr_Willis | Jenk: not that ive seen that you would want to hand out debs built with it.. personal use perhaps... | 13:23 |
| ActionParsnip | Jenk: could use apt-build | 13:23 |
| Jenk | I have the source code of an application in a tar.bz2 file. How do I create Ubuntu install packages from such files ? | 13:24 |
| q_a_z_steve | from a tarball | 13:24 |
| st__ | Jenk, plus tere's whale site on topic of debianizatuion of sourceas | 13:24 |

| st__ | Jenk, http://www.debian.org/doc/maint-guide/ | 13:25 |

| q_a_z_steve | YES. I've successfully obfuscated (read "doubled) my /etc/apt/sources.list1 | 13:27 |
| q_a_z_steve | ! | 13:27 |
| Dr_Willis | q_a_z_steve: this is why they have a /etc/apt/sources.list.d/ directory | 13:28 |
| Dr_Willis | :) | 13:28 |
| Jenk | I'm using Jaunty and transmission is outdated. I have the 'tar.bz2' file and was wondering if there was a way to create an installer/installable-package of the source code. | 13:28 |
| q_a_z_steve | Wait, can I separate lucid from maverick then??? | 13:28 |
| ActionParsnip | Jenk: transmission is no longer supported here | 13:28 |
| q_a_z_steve | Jenk you want backports | 13:29 |
| q_a_z_steve | done | 13:29 |
| ActionParsnip | Jenk: jaunty, sorry | 13:29 |
| Dr_Willis | q_a_z_steve: seperate lucid from maverick? | 13:30 |
| q_a_z_steve | Dr_Willis: elaborate, what can I use directory for? | 13:30 |
| IceCas | q_a_z_steve, hey the force mount thing fails. We get """mount: block device /dev/sr1 is write-protected, mounting read-only; /dev/sr1 on /media/DTVP type iso9660 (ro)""" | 13:30 |
| Dr_Willis | q_a_z_steve: instead of having a huge sources.list you can have a file for each source, in /etc/apt/sources.list.d/ makes them easier to manager/remove/add | 13:31 |
| Jenk | This isn't application specific... There are so many programs out there all available in source code packaged in tarballs. Isn't there a way to create packages that auto-install when you single-click on them from their source code ? | 13:31 |
| q_a_z_steve | IceCas: what does your mount / fstab line read? | 13:31 |
| Dr_Willis | Jenk: short answer.. No. Theres to much variation. | 13:31 |
| === daniel is now known as jim_r0x | ||

| st__ | Jenk, I linked the guide to you | 13:32 |
| q_a_z_steve | Jenk Jaunty is out of support, upgrade. The end | 13:32 |
| Dr_Willis | Jenk: for properly done source code theres a tool that can generate debs from them. but its a tool for personal use only. | 13:32 |
| Dr_Willis | I cant even recall its name. | 13:33 |
| Jenk | Dr_Willis, What's the name ? | 13:33 |
| IceCas | q_a_z_steve, """" #/ was on /dev/sda5 during installation """ | 13:33 |
| q_a_z_steve | Jenk backports or dist-upgrade | 13:33 |
| ActionParsnip | Jenk: or upgrade to Karmic for support | 13:33 |

| q_a_z_steve | !root | 13:37 |
| ubottu | Do not try to guess the root password, that is impossible. Instead, realise the truth... there is no root password. Then you will see that it is 'sudo' that grants you access and not the root password. Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo | 13:37 |

| IceCas | q_a_z_steve, nah Im not that new to su. Plus I've use gentoo for quite a bit which is su only | 13:38 |
| Dr_Willis | InvaderZim: can you install other packagefs from the main repo? or are you using some PPA/3rd party repo for gqibber? | 13:38 |
| q_a_z_steve | IceCas: besides, what you said doesn't make sense. | 13:38 |

| AbhiJit | share, you try 64 bit. its nice | 13:45 |
| Dr_Willis | I think zsnes is 32bit only.. but i hear it works if you force it to install.. but there are 64bit snes emulators out there now anyway | 13:45 |
| share | AbhiJit: first i need to buy ram :p | 13:45 |
| AbhiJit | :( | 13:45 |
| dorbin | I am using maverick and SSD (corsair 60GB), how do I know that the drive is aligned and that TRIM is working?? | 13:45 |
| akx8 | @q_a_z_steve: i want to remove the cd drive icon that it shows | 13:45 |
| bootissue | i find no matter if i boot from kernel 2.6.35-24, 2.6.35-23, 2.6.32-26, 2.6.32-21, plus recovery console all the same | 13:46 |
| AbhiJit | share, how much ram do you have now? | 13:46 |
| share | 2gb | 13:46 |
| Dr_Willis | share: i run 64bit even on my 2gb ram machines. | 13:46 |
| lordcirrus | xchat input to dowload a file | 13:46 |
| bootissue | still end up with recovery menu | 13:46 |
| AbhiJit | share, i have 2gb ram only | 13:46 |
| AbhiJit | share, mine is laptop | 13:46 |
| Dr_Willis | lordcirrus: check the xcaht homepage/docs - theres ways to dcc files via xchat | 13:46 |
| IceCas | q_a_z_steve, Oh, I did not remember how to use the --force flag or whichever. So I said hopefully su is enough. Either way didnt work | 13:46 |
| q_a_z_steve | akx8: the icon, or the drive that's mounted, or the data on it? | 13:46 |
| lordcirrus | thanks | 13:46 |
| Dr_Willis | lordcirrus: often the dcc features dont work due to firewalls/routers. | 13:47 |
| share | AbhiJit: yes but you could run 32.. or you expect to add more ram | 13:47 |
| AbhiJit | share, i have 2gb swap space too | 13:47 |
| AbhiJit | amm??? | 13:47 |
| akx8 | @q_a_z_steve yes the drive that's mounted and it has an autorun.inf and some other stuff | 13:47 |
| AbhiJit | share, you can run 64 bit ubuntu on 2gb ram easily | 13:47 |
| Dr_Willis | I have a small home lan. everything is running 64bit if it can. because that makes it easier for my 'apt-cacher-ng' server to cach all the downloads. :) | 13:47 |

| q_a_z_steve | IceCas: by "force" I think umount and specifying a brand new mount command will be different | 13:47 |
| lordcirrus | bye | 13:47 |
| share | AbhiJit: i know i tried with livecd but what to i gain with that if i dont have more than 3.2gb | 13:48 |
| bootissue | what does the system load after the grub... thats my issue... i get the same result from every option | 13:48 |
| share | *do | 13:48 |
| AbhiJit | ok | 13:48 |
| share | doesnt make sense :x | 13:48 |
| q_a_z_steve | akx8: are you saying you want to unmount the drive, or blow away the data, be clear. | 13:48 |
| akx8 | @q_a_z_steve blow away the data | 13:48 |
| IceCas | q_a_z_steve, Could you clarify that? | 13:48 |
| q_a_z_steve | dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/XXX | 13:49 |
| q_a_z_steve | akx8: ^^^ | 13:49 |
| q_a_z_steve | IceCas: start with umount | 13:49 |
| akx8 | @q_a_z_steve i checked in gparted. it does not show the cd drive part | 13:49 |
| q_a_z_steve | akx8: then what do you mean by "extra icon"? | 13:50 |
| bootissue | i said i would be back.. i seem forgotten.. i have a problem.. and i cant boot ubuntu. | 13:50 |
| AbhiJit | share, i started to use 64 because most of the problem have solved till then and the more user start to use 64 version the more its applications availability forced to developer | 13:50 |
| bootissue | i get this recovery console instead | 13:50 |
| AbhiJit | ;) | 13:50 |
| akx8 | @q_a_z_steve: it shows /dev/sdc1 and /dev/sr0 and i am running dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/sdc bs=2048 | 13:51 |
| q_a_z_steve | IceCas: mount -o loop is not required, neither are a bunch of other things, fiddle and see what works. if you are wanting to blow away data you don't even need it mounted. | 13:51 |
| q_a_z_steve | bootissue: right. sorry. what more do you have? | 13:51 |
| ONanski | Does anyone have a solution the audio/video synchronization problems in guvcvier from the Ubuntu repositories? | 13:51 |
| q_a_z_steve | akx8: that will blow away the entire drive, so? | 13:52 |
| IceCas | q_a_z_steve, Yes, that's already been done. The umount. and The mount -t blahblah -o rw /media/DataTrav . That was the first thing I did | 13:52 |
| akx8 | @q_a_z_steve: will i able to format it to ntfs now | 13:52 |
| q_a_z_steve | ONanski: which problem is that, Error? | 13:52 |
| bootissue | q_a_Z_steve: i have four kernels and for kernels recovery consoles all the same result.. | 13:52 |
| bootissue | p.m. | 13:52 |
| q_a_z_steve | akx8: once it's done, sure. | 13:53 |
| shleda | hi, can some one help me with gparted, it is not identifying my filesystem | 13:53 |
| ONanski | q_a_z_steve: Well, when you play the video back, the audio is playing at a faster rate than the video. | 13:53 |
| shai__ | HI :) | 13:53 |
| shleda | I have windows XP installed but when I rebooted into gparted live USB its not identifying my filesystem at all | 13:53 |
| q_a_z_steve | ONanski: does the same happen with other programs? | 13:54 |
| bootissue | i have recently added lubuntu and xubuntu desktops plus removed unknow start up entries.. | 13:54 |
| bootissue | now i cant boot at all | 13:54 |
| shleda | or some one can let me know if there is a dedicated gparted IRC room | 13:54 |
| ONanski | Steve: I'll give it a try. One sec | 13:54 |
| q_a_z_steve | bootissue: so something has broken those entries, grub can be fixed | 13:55 |
| Silent93 | shleda: Might be able to, what file system is it? | 13:55 |
| shai__ | Hi :) How come when I run 'aptitude -s safe-upgrade --target-release `lsb_release -cs`-security' ; I get a security update for 'fuse-utils' yet when I search the Ubuntu Security Announce mailing list for the past 3 months to the two words 'fuse-utils', I get no results? This server was just recently installed and was kept up-to-date (on Dec. 15th 2010)? | 13:55 |
| bootissue | q_a_z_steve: can a file be replaced with one from the iso of ubuntu to fix this | 13:55 |

| q_a_z_steve | !tab > ONanski | 13:55 |
| ubottu | ONanski, please see my private message | 13:56 |
| shleda | its NTFS but I dont see gparted identifying it | 13:56 |
| bootissue | i dont care about the ubuntu settings ect.. just want a working os.. | 13:56 |
| Silent93 | shleda: which version of gparted are you using? (help>about) | 13:56 |
| q_a_z_steve | bootissue: no, it won't know your stuff, not that simple. You can reinstall the entire OS and it will fix it. | 13:56 |
| ONanski | q_a_z_steve, Works fine in Cheese - but the FPS in cheese it a little laggy. | 13:57 |
| ONanski | q_a_z_steve, Thanks for the pm. | 13:57 |

| gobbe | shifnix: sorry, wrong guy | 13:57 |

| shifnix | lol np | 13:57 |
| shleda | Silent93: gparted-live-0.7.1-1 | 13:57 |
| akx8 | @q_a_z_steve: i dont remember the exat steps for createing an img file using console could you point to some site or tell me | 13:57 |
| q_a_z_steve | bootissue: sorry, what about them> | 13:57 |
| gobbe | shai__: what is your fuse-utils -packages version | 13:57 |
| q_a_z_steve | akx8: creating an img of the drive? | 13:58 |
| ONanski | q_a_z_steve, Okay, I'll contact the author of the software. Thanks | 13:58 |
| shleda | Silent93: I can see NTFS in the list of supported FS | 13:58 |
| Silent93 | shleda: I assume the live means your running the live cd version? | 13:58 |
| xjkx | vtual kb, What is that came installd ? | 13:58 |
| bootissue | q_a_z_steve: is that how i can reinstall?? | 13:58 |
| shai__ | gobbe: Version: 2.8.1-1.1ubuntu2 | 13:58 |
| akx8 | @q_a_z_steve: not of the drive but an img for the drive so i can edit its contents and pass it on | 13:59 |
| ActionParsnip | xjkx: it's called onboard and is part of a default install, just run alacarte and enable the entry | 13:59 |
| Silent93 | shleda: it is supported, I used it yesterday :P though I haven't tried the live cd | 13:59 |
| q_a_z_steve | bootissue: however you got Ubuntu install media before, do that. | 13:59 |
| bootissue | just reinstall ubuntu over the old ubunt partition | 13:59 |
| gobbe | shai__: newist is 2.8.4 | 13:59 |
| shleda | Silent93: Yes, I have a HP laptop with c drive occupying the complete disk, its a work laptop, so cant reformat/partition it so decided to resize the partition | 13:59 |
| q_a_z_steve | akx8: that doesn't make sense to me. | 13:59 |
| gobbe | shai__: or are you runnoing 10.04? | 14:00 |
| Dr_Willis | shentino: you could install ubuntu into virtualbox - if you want a 'safest' route to try ubuntu | 14:00 |
| ActionParsnip | shleda: you can resize the ntfs under ubuntu livecd. I recommend you ask if you are allowed to mess with it first. They may get shouty | 14:00 |
| bootissue | will that leave a bunch of broken packages... should i format the partion first?? | 14:00 |
| akx8 | @q_a_z_steve: i remember first i used to dd if=/dev/zero of=~/usb.img | 14:00 |

| akx8 | @q_a_z_steve:then some cmds for making it a valid filesystem | 14:00 |
| shleda | ActionParsnip: IT dept says do it at your own risk we wont support you | 14:00 |
| shai__ | gobbe: 10.04 LTS | 14:00 |
| Silent93 | shleda: I did it by using a ubuntu live cd, compiling the source from the gparted website and then doing it like that, bit long winded but it worked | 14:01 |
| gobbe | shai__: ok, then you should have newist one | 14:01 |
| bootissue | i guess thats that... to fix my boot. i have to undo everything i ever did to it... that sucks.. | 14:01 |
| Powderking | I'm trying to write an udev rule. Here's the output of udevadm: http://mythbuntu.pastebin.com/J7XjwZad.

| q_a_z_steve | akx8: what's your question, are you asking how to format the drive, or how to image it so you can send contents somewhere? | 14:02 |
| gobbe | shai__: maybe it's related to some other bug and that's reason why it's updated also | 14:02 |
| shai__ | gobbe: I should? Or do I? From what you said, I don't ... since I have only Version: 2.8.1-1.1ubuntu2 | 14:02 |
| Dr_Willis | shleda: ive been running ubuntu from bootable flash drives on some machines. works decently well. | 14:02 |
| gobbe | shai__: you are, i first looked from 10.10, my bad | 14:02 |
| q_a_z_steve | bootissue: Not cross OS | 14:02 |
| Silent93 | shleda: I've never tried the full live cd so I can't help with that | 14:02 |
| Dr_Willis | shleda: inside virtualbox is very useable also. | 14:02 |
| akx8 | @q_a_z_steve: make an image without a device then add contents and ship it | 14:03 |
| Silent93 | shleda: can you mount the partition? | 14:03 |
| bootissue | got it.. seperate partitions for seporate os...\ | 14:03 |
| shai__ | gobbe: but then, why does it want me to update it? | 14:03 |
| shleda | well guys, my problem is, I want to resize my existing c drive so that I can install ubuntu and then do not look at windows xp again | 14:03 |
| bootissue | why is that crap in the software center anyways if it brakes your system | 14:03 |
| liTTle-FoX | Any to help me, I need some software for GPS on ubuntu OS | 14:04 |
| gobbe | shai__: well, there might be some fixes still | 14:04 |
| gobbe | shai__: why you don't just install it?-) | 14:04 |
| q_a_z_steve | akx8: dd if=/some/folder of=/some/file.img ? | 14:04 |
| Dr_Willis | shleda: live cd/installer can do that.. or the gaparted live cd.. windows vista and 7 can also resize ntfs from whtihn windows. | 14:04 |
| ActionParsnip | shleda: the system will become a dual boot but you can set the ubuntu to be the default | 14:04 |
| Dr_Willis | shleda: and do it faster then gparted/ubuntu installer can. | 14:04 |
| q_a_z_steve | bootissue: that too. | 14:04 |
| shleda | have any one used SafeBoot data encryption tools? its on my laptop, do you think it can be an issue? | 14:04 |
| bootissue | shleda.. get a new hard drive and play with that.. keep the xp in the drawer for when things go wrong.. | 14:04 |
| Dr_Willis | bootissue: what crap? | 14:04 |
| Dr_Willis | with every new laptop i get these days.. i pick up a new spare HD. :) bigger/faster also.. to use. | 14:05 |
| Dr_Willis | cheaper then paying for dvd/recovery media. and quicker. | 14:05 |
| bootissue | dr_willis: i added the xubuntu and lubuntu desktops to my system and lubuntu is the culprit i think | 14:05 |
| shleda | Dr_Willis: and ActionParsnip I am trying to do the same using gparted | 14:05 |
| Dr_Willis | but this new laptop i got.. i did that.. THEN realized.. the laptop had places for 2 hard drives.. | 14:05 |
| shai__ | gobbe: I don't like working like a monkey :) I like to understand the correlation between the packages my servers wants to upgrade, between the list announced by Ubuntu on their Security Announce List. | 14:05 |
| Evilenko | how do I install runewin on ubuntu 10.10? | 14:05 |
| Dr_Willis | bootissue: i think you are wrong. I have xubuntu-desktop and kubuntu-desktop and lubuntu-desktop installed on other machines. and that does NOT break the system. just makes cluttered menus. | 14:06 |
| gobbe | shai__: maybe you should ask it from list, but i would say that it is related to some other bug | 14:06 |
| shai__ | And when on my server I see that I need to upgrade fuse-utils, I would like to see why, on their list... if I could only find the package in question there.... | 14:06 |
| Dr_Willis | bootissue: your system is havin issues befor those even load.. if you could get to a console, you could in theory remove them via the command line tools. | 14:06 |
| q_a_z_steve | bootissue: you couldn't get xubuntu from the software center | 14:06 |
| bootissue | what am i doing wrong than. please help me.. | 14:07 |
| shleda | Dr_Willis: well it seems I need to do it with WUBI | 14:07 |
| shai__ | gobbe: 'aptitude -s safe-upgrade --target-release `lsb_release -cs`-security' ; am I right to assume the aforementioned command would install only security updates and nothing else (ie. no bug fixes etc.)? | 14:07 |

| gobbe | shai__: i mean same version that i found there | 14:21 |
| akx8 | @q_a_z_steve: so it should be dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/sdc conv=notrunc bs=2048 | 14:21 |

| monty_hall | every time I my machine I must "chown -R /var/run/courier" How do I resolve this problem? | 15:38 |
| ireez | sacarlson: makes that two of us. i now hated that network-manager so much. its easier configuring with the interfaces file | 15:38 |

| ireez | sacarlson: is it okay to disable that network-manager and stick to the interfaces file? | 15:39 |
| sacarlson | ireez: try sudo service network-manager stop | 15:40 |
| sacarlson | ireez: yes | 15:40 |
| ireez | sacarlson: before i do that, one question. will it kill my connection instantly? | 15:40 |
| sacarlson | ireez: I just run static | 15:40 |
| sacarlson | ireez: I don't think so it will leave you in your present state | 15:41 |

| phil42 | reinstalling the nvidia driver by using the factory-supplied installer worked | 15:44 |

| juro | i.e. would it be better to run a 32bit ubuntu? | 15:47 |

| ireez | sacarlson: ok. let me try your suggestion first and get back at you when done for mega thanks. | 15:48 |
| aeon-ltd | juro: unlikely, unless your running some new gpu that 64bit drivers haven't been developed enough yet | 15:48 |
| Evilus | Tried googling for solution so far nothing | 15:48 |
| twiztid | how do i permanently mount a windows share? | 15:48 |
| jjkinas | so i used to have gnome2-globalmenu and i dont rember how exactly i put it on 10.10 but it wasnt hard now i cant seem to get it on here i tried to add the repo then apt-get it like it says to do on websites but its not working | 15:48 |
| Larriv | is there a place that i can find all the command of ubuntu | 15:48 |
| ireez | LoganJRuff: thanks for replying and the suggestion also. | 15:48 |
| sacarlson | twiztid: I think that would require an entry in /etc/fstab | 15:49 |
| aeon-ltd | juro: what are your other specs? also watch a process manager if anything is acting a little buggy | 15:49 |
| twiztid | sacarlson: exactly! ive made my credentials file and added the line to fstab... once i input 'sudo mount -a' i get mount error(13): Permission denied | 15:50 |
| pr0ph3t | is it possible to use the keyboard on my putty client on the ssh server? the server is ubuntu and the client is my phone with putty and qwerty keyboard | 15:50 |
| sacarlson | Larriv: try looking in /bin /usr/bin /usr/sbin | 15:51 |
| pr0ph3t | hi all | 15:51 |
| erUSUL | Evilus: try « sudo dhclient eth0 » | 15:51 |
| erUSUL | !samba | twiztid | 15:51 |

| pr0ph3t | so that I can use the phone as a wireless keyboard basically | 15:52 |
| sacarlson | twiztid: should try to mount with cli (command line interpriter ) to test if you can do it before you try modify the fstab | 15:52 |
| Evilus | erUSUL: I get listening on LPF/eth0/ipv6address | 15:52 |
| Evilus | and sending on same | 15:52 |
| ireez | sacarlson: can i ask you one more thing? if i want to make an interface just turn on without getting ip address from a dhcp server, i don't need to put any entry in the file, do i? | 15:52 |
| Evilus | then it tris to discover but fails | 15:53 |
| === James is now known as Guest88297 | ||
| erUSUL | Evilus: you do not get a ip adress from gateaway? ( o home modem/router i am assuming) | 15:53 |

| mackenzie | hello - i was wondering if someone could help. i just installed 10.10 and have no sound at all and i'm stumped. | 15:54 |
| twiztid | well my /var/log/messages says Jan 9 07:40:44 Sassy kernel: [ 7087.638206] Status code returned 0xc000006d NT_STATUS_LOGON_FAILURE indicating that im accessing the share but being denied permissions... right? | 15:54 |
| jjkinas | so basically my question was does anyone know where i can find steps to install global menu on 10.10 ? | 15:54 |
| sacarlson | ireez: you should have already read this http://www.cyberciti.biz/tips/howto-ubuntu-linux-convert-dhcp-network-configuration-to-static-ip-configuration.html | 15:54 |
| coz_ | mackenzie, up in the taskbar is the Speaker/sound indicator ...right click that see if the sound has been muted | 15:55 |
| Hilikus | does anyone know how to enable surround sound without a pulseaudio server? | 15:55 |
| ireez | sacarlson: yes yes. thanks | 15:55 |
| mackenzie | coz_ the sound is not muted | 15:55 |
| twiztid | erUSUL: been there and back... ugh | 15:55 |
| erUSUL | Evilus: and if you manually assing ip/gw etc ? does it work | 15:55 |
| coz_ | ireez, open a terminal alsamixer check the sliders | 15:55 |
| sacarlson | ireez: sorry I assumed you knew that | 15:55 |
| Evilus | erUSUL: when I try to manuall assign it just resets back to dhcp for some reason | 15:55 |
| coz_ | mackenzie, ok you might want to also go to the #alsa and #pulseaudio channels | 15:55 |
| mackenzie | coz_ i went a step forward and put 'cat /proc/asound/cards' and got '--- no soundcards---' as a result | 15:56 |
| coz_ | oh | 15:56 |
| coz_ | mackenzie, then definitly go to #alsa and #pulseaudio | 15:56 |
| mackenzie | and i def have a realtek onboard soundcard | 15:56 |
| mackenzie | thus my confusion | 15:56 |
| erUSUL | Evilus: using network manager gui? | 15:56 |
| Evilus | erUSUL: ye | 15:56 |
| ireez | sacarlson: yes yes. but i just want an interface to be on. not having address | 15:57 |
| q_a_z_steve | mackenzie: Just a fluke deal, have you tried headphones? | 15:57 |
| ireez | coz_: excuse me? | 15:57 |
| mackenzie | i have NOT tried headphones, i'll plug some in now | 15:57 |
| Evilus | erUSUL: solved it | 15:57 |
| sacarlson | ireez: how do you comunicate with an interface with no ip? | 15:57 |
| Evilus | erUSUL: found a solution on google saying to turn of pc and unplugg for 10 sec and then plug in again and I tested and worked | 15:57 |
| q_a_z_steve | I am currently using a macbook pro with 10.10 installed and the only thing that worked out of the box is headphones. Still haven't taken the time to fix... | 15:57 |
| Evilus | ok now to solve GRUP issue | 15:57 |
| Evilus | GRUB ** | 15:58 |
| sacarlson | ireez: ipv6? | 15:58 |
| coz_ | ireez, I am not great with sound issues but the first place I would start is to open a terminal .and type alsamixer... there you would use the left and right arrows to move through all the available volume sliders...if one is marked "MM" hit the "m" on the keyboard to unmute and push up the sliders | 15:58 |
| q_a_z_steve | aplay -l | 15:58 |
| mackenzie | headphones do nothing | 15:59 |
| mackenzie | i'll try #alsa | 15:59 |
| q_a_z_steve | !sound | 15:59 |
| ubottu | If you're having problems with sound, click the Volume applet, then Sound Preferences, and check your Volume, Hardware, Input, and Output settings.

| sacarlson | ireez: ok that might work, but I would still have an address ipv4 set just in case, but it might work | 16:01 |

| erUSUL | Evilus: ask and we will see ;P | 16:02 |
| mackenzie | coz_ i get nothing from alsamixer. someone when i installed it it missed my soundcard entirely. no worries, i'm chasing it up | 16:02 |

| coz_ | Hilikus, open a terminal ... type alsamixer...use the left and right arrow buttons to move through the available voiume sliders... if marked "MM" hit the "m" on the keyboard to unmute... move the volume sliders up also go to the #alsa and #pulseaudo channels | 16:02 |
| ireez | sacarlson: yeah. lets try it. i'll tell u how it works | 16:02 |
| Evilus | erUSUL: Well before i had only linux installed and I completely reformmated.. Installed win xp first and then had a 2nd partition where i installed ubuntu 10.10 at | 16:02 |
| Evilus | so u chose ext4 system and / as boot | 16:03 |
| Evilus | and now it ONLY boots into linux | 16:03 |
| Evilus | there is no grub menu at all | 16:03 |
| Hilikus | coz_: i already did that :S | 16:03 |
| erUSUL | Evilus: maybe it doesnot appear by default. press shift during boot to force the menu to appear | 16:03 |
| erUSUL | Evilus: also make sure you have os-prober installed | 16:03 |
| sacarlson | ireez: all I can say is I'm sure it will work with a simple static ip on your host | 16:04 |
| coz_ | Hilikus, ok then I would definitly scoot over to the #alsa and #pulseaudio channels to see what they suggest :) | 16:04 |
| erUSUL | Evilus: if you want the menu to appear allways you can edit /etc/default/grub | 16:04 |
| Hilikus | coz_: i've been there for the last 3 days, nobody answers. channel's pretty dead | 16:04 |
| markturnip | Even if I try "sudo /etc/init.d/hostapd abcd" it doesn't give me a respose with usage example. | 16:04 |
| Evilus | hmm ok erUSUL will try on next reboot ...os-prober is instaleld I ran it and dan the update thing it found 3 according to terminal the memtest linux + some other thing but not windows | 16:04 |
| Evilus | ok I will try shift during boot erUSUL ...what exactly do I ahve to edit inside grub | 16:05 |
| coz_ | Hilikus, oooo that's not good... not sure what to say.. did you google to see if ubuntu supports that sound card...? | 16:05 |
| Evilus | Grub_default = 1 ? | 16:05 |
| erUSUL | Evilus: well if os-prober does not find windows then better add windows manually ... | 16:05 |
| q_a_z_steve | !sound > Hilikus | 16:05 |
| Hilikus | coz_: i know it does. when i boot with a ubuntu-desktop live-cd it works | 16:05 |
| ubottu | Hilikus, please see my private message | 16:05 |
| Evilus | erUSUL: ok got time to explain how :P? | 16:06 |
| Evilus | erUSUL: sorry if I am bothering you I never had these issues before | 16:06 |
| coz_ | Hilikus, and when you go to system/preferences/sound the card does not show up under the hardware tab? | 16:06 |
| Hilikus | coz_: there is sound, the problem is that it's only on the front right and left speakers | 16:07 |
| twiztid | sacarlson: UPDATE: I added the noauto option before my credentials and then when i input sudo mount -a it didnt return any errors BUT, its nowhere to be found... | 16:07 |

| sacarlson | twiztid: well most the time I share with windows xp, I've had problems in the reverse that made it not worthwile, one problem I had is I needed an account on the xp that had a user name and password that was shareing, most the time I had accounts with no password | 16:24 |
| r00t4rd3d | dmzda, if you get this "ssh: connect to host 127.0.0.1 port 22: Connection refused" | 16:24 |
| Evilus | erUSUL: I get no such partition | 16:25 |
| sburjan` | hello. does anybody know any tool for screen recording that works well on ubuntu ? | 16:25 |
| dmzda | No, it asks me for my password | 16:25 |
| r00t4rd3d | then your all set | 16:25 |
| dmzda | I enter it, and it gives me a shell | 16:25 |
| qaapla | can i destroy something, if i get virtualbox and ubuntu? | 16:25 |
| r00t4rd3d | :D | 16:25 |
| dmzda | So, how can I make it use keys? | 16:25 |
| twiztid | sacarlson: so i should create a user on xp with the same username and password as my ubuntu box then add that user to the shared folder's permissions? | 16:25 |
| aeon-ltd | qaapla: no running in a vm is almost 99% safe for the host | 16:26 |
| acicula | qaapla: destroy what? | 16:26 |
| qaapla | destroy something on win | 16:26 |
| DBoyz | its past my bedtime and im still waiting to be helped | 16:26 |
| TriangularGodPan | not so. | 16:27 |
| TriangularGodPan | VMs are not perfect. Not at all. "This project is intended to demonstrate that current popular approaches to software security (e.g. DAC, VMA randomization, anti-virus, NIDS, etc.) are not sufficient and that other approaches should be considered more seriously" | 16:27 |
| sacarlson | twiztid: it maters not what user pass you have as long as you have one and you provide the correct user pass at mount | 16:27 |
| acicula | qaapla: you can safely run ubuntu in a vm without it affecting the host os | 16:27 |
| markturnip | Why does "/etc/init.d/hostapd start" not respond with anything? | 16:27 |
| twiztid | sacarlson: thats just it, there correct... im so stumped... | 16:27 |
| meco | Is transmission 1.06 the most recent version for ubuntu? | 16:27 |
| qaapla | how big is ubuntu? | 16:28 |
| qaapla | and vbox | 16:28 |
| qaapla | in MB | 16:28 |
| aeon-ltd | meco: are there any updates from the repos available, if not then yes | 16:28 |
| xangua | meco: no, that sound like a realy old versión...what ubuntu are you using¿ | 16:28 |
| twiztid | sacarlson: fstab and sudo mount -t both return permission denied | 16:28 |
| acicula | qaapla: 10GB of space would be good, virtualbox wont be that big and you can squeeze ubuntu in only a few GB if you really want to, but a bit more is nice | 16:28 |
| TriangularGodPan | 20 or 30 gigs should be enough for your VM. you can chooose a dynamix expanding storage | 16:28 |
| sacarlson | twiztid: why not just have the windows share on ubuntu? wouldn't that provide what you need? or you could also use ssh file share? | 16:28 |
| aeon-ltd | qaapla: around 4-6gb, the partition should cover the /home aswell so i'd reccommend at least 15-20gb | 16:28 |
| acicula | qaapla: you can just set the disc to dynamically expand | 16:28 |
| Jaac | Im trying to get a fully functional install off phplist going, which is a mailing list script. | 16:29 |
| qaapla | O_O | 16:29 |
| r00t4rd3d | dmzda, read this for tweaking your sshd server - https://help.ubuntu.com/6.06/ubuntu/serverguide/C/openssh-server.html | 16:29 |
| Jaac | It needs php imap support, which isnt installed by default when installing a LAMP stack. | 16:29 |
| Jaac | Ive installed imap support, by apt-get install php5-imap, but phpinfo sitll doesnt show imap support. | 16:29 |
| Kauzmik1dr | Im about to download ubuntu for my gateway m series laptop, should I download the desktop version? | 16:29 |

| Jaac | How can i get it to work? | 16:30 |
| Jaac | I am running 10.04 LTS ubuntu. | 16:30 |
| TriangularGodPan | A noble answer would be, as long as you only use the emulated hardware for the Virtual Machine, then you should be ok | 16:30 |
| qaapla | Is it easy? | 16:30 |
| aeon-ltd | qaapla: pretty easy | 16:30 |
| meco | xangua: 8.04 | 16:30 |
| Kauzmik1dr | should I download the latest version or the long term support? | 16:30 |
| twiztid | sacarlson: my ubuntu is a laptop... would suck to do it the other way around... +i dont want anyone but me to be able to access it... | 16:30 |
| DBoyz | 21 minutes waiting | 16:31 |
| meco | aeon-ltd: I cannot even find transmission in Synaptic | 16:31 |
| System_Default_0 | Is there some alternative for Macromedia Flash 8 in Ubuntu 9.10? | 16:31 |
| aeon-ltd | meco: are you sure, transmission is the default client iirc, so that can't be right | 16:31 |
| acicula | TriangularGodPan: his question wasnt wether there are security risks associated with using vms, just if installing ubuntu would affect his windows installation. | 16:32 |
| xangua | meco: try the transmission ppa if you want latest https://launchpad.net/~transmissionbt/+archive/ppa | 16:32 |
| aeon-ltd | System_Default_0: gnash but frankly its crap relative to flash, i'd just update to flash 10 | 16:32 |

| Myrtti | TriangularGodPan: and more complicated at upgrades. | 16:33 |

| tirupati | ok | 16:37 |
| twiztid | sacarlson: thx for the motivation... ive been at it for weeks... lol it mounted ONCE and that was a spoof cause i dont know what i did cause i gave up and shut it down only to find it had mountd... then another bootup later, broken.... it would just be nice to have my windows share in nautilus and not have to access it through windows network :/ | 16:37 |
| tirupati | bye | 16:37 |
| DBoyz | usb stick | 16:37 |
| plytheman | acicula: yeah, my firefox launcher is on the left, and the time is still on the right. I'm missing the 'Applications' 'Places' and 'System' menus tho | 16:37 |
| TriangularGodPan | DBoyz i think i had the same problem like last week. try holding ctrl left arrow or something. there is a hotkey to go in a restoration mode | 16:37 |
| xangua | lwizardl: google for packages ubuntu | 16:37 |
| bloblbo | xangua acicula I will try gunzip and if it won't do it I'll try 7zip. I will return here after while and tell you how I managed. thx mates! | 16:37 |
| qaapla | i know nothing about ubuntu and linux, must i? | 16:37 |
| TriangularGodPan | it works even with that error | 16:37 |
| xangua | lwizardl: ooh by apt¿ no idea | 16:37 |
| acicula | no os means no os, either the pendrive isnt bootable, or its not set to boot from? | 16:38 |
| plytheman | ubottu: I did restart gnome-panel already and the menus are still missing, I'll try whta you said tho | 16:38 |

| txa005 | I have a question.....something wierd is happening with ubuntu (and linux mint as well I noticed) | 16:38 |
| acicula | are you using the boot device selection option in the bios? | 16:38 |

| DBoyz | i actually tried that | 16:38 |
| DBoyz | nothing worked | 16:38 |
| acicula | flonarsonar: fresh installation? | 16:38 |
| twiztid | sacarlson: ok ill look into ssh, is it easier? lol | 16:38 |
| acicula | DBoyz: how did you make the usb bootdisk? | 16:39 |
| txa005 | If I download anything in ubuntu...from the software manager or just regular downloads...it makes browsing on my computer and every other computer on our local network near impossible...it pings like 5000ms | 16:39 |
| flonarsonar | *acicula Tried that, it still won´t work. Installed like 10 times. | 16:39 |
| DBoyz | yes | 16:39 |
| txa005 | if I boot into Vista and download anything..it works fine | 16:39 |

| DBoyz | www.pendrivelinux.com | 16:39 |
| twiztid | sacarlson: and can it be done permantly at each startup? | 16:39 |
| txa005 | has anyone ever heard of an issue like that? | 16:39 |
| DBoyz | idk if its okay to use on alternate .iso s | 16:39 |
| acicula | flonarsonar: i ask because after installation its important to install updates and other software to get hardware with proprietary software working. | 16:39 |
| qaapla | i know nothing about ubuntu and linux, must i? | 16:39 |
| txa005 | where downloading in ubuntu somehow seems to take the max amount of bandwith on your network? | 16:39 |
| acicula | flonarsonar: so best approach would be to get your ethernet working, run updates and see if ubuntu can then activate your wirelses card | 16:40 |
| sacarlson | twiztid: well I don't work much with windows any more but ssh works fine with many systems | 16:40 |
| flonarsonar | @ACICULA, I know but ethernet isnt working! It just shows an animation! | 16:40 |
| System_Default_0 | qaapla: You should, if you wanna work with Linux. :) | 16:40 |
| qaapla | it is just fun | 16:40 |
| acicula | flonarsonar: when you plug unplug the cable does it say you are connected/disconnected | 16:40 |
| sacarlson | twiztid: maybe putty? | 16:40 |
| txa005 | anyone? | 16:40 |
| qaapla | just for fun* | 16:40 |
| DBoyz | acicula: i have ubuntu 10.10 too, that one's giving me trouble too | 16:40 |
| twiztid | sacarlson: is it able to mount it automatically each boot, and wtf is putty? lol | 16:41 |
| sacarlson | twiztid: yes you can do ssh mount in fstab | 16:41 |
| flonarsonar | @ACICULA, it says WIRED network "auto eth0" and the animation continues. then it disconnects. | 16:41 |
| acicula | DBoyz:can you install unetbootin and try making a bootstick with that? | 16:41 |
| plytheman | xangua: thanks, that fixed the panels for me. Any idea why that happened? afaik I haven't changed anything recently. | 16:41 |

| Larriv | xangua: how can i add the sources you gave me | 16:52 |
| Evilenko | then ubuntu 11.04 is newer then 10.10? | 16:52 |
| acicula | Evilenko: yeah, though 11.04 isnt out yet | 16:52 |
| LoganJRuff | DarkStar1, the "rm" command destroys the link to the information on the hardware media, clearing it for rewrite. Restoring the link is not really practical as it is quite difficult. | 16:52 |
| xangua | Larriv: i already told you just READ the instruccions at getdeb.net and playdeb.net | 16:52 |
| DarkStar1 | LoganJRuff: Sorry shoulda said I'm ssh'ed into a centOS system | 16:53 |
| Evilenko | but i want to upgrade to 11.04 from 10.10? | 16:53 |
| Evilus | can I check if I have grub 1 or 2? | 16:53 |
| glaceman | any help please http://paste.ubuntu.com/552217/ | 16:53 |
| LoganJRuff | Evilenko, 11.04 is not yet out | 16:53 |
| Evilus | or does ubuntu 10.10 come with grub 2 ? | 16:53 |
| Larriv | xangua: ok thanks man | 16:53 |
| Evilenko | alpha one is? | 16:53 |
| DexterF | hi | 16:53 |
| twiztid | evilenko: use alpha | 16:53 |
| IdleOne | !11.04 | Evilenko | 16:53 |
| ubottu | Evilenko: Natty Narwhal is the codename for Ubuntu 11.04, due April 28 2011 - Help and support (only) in #ubuntu+1 - Natty is unstable and is not intended for production systems. | 16:53 |
| LoganJRuff | Evilenko, don't even think of using the alpha | 16:53 |
| sacarlson | twiztid: cool , to think I promoted giving up | 16:53 |
| Evilenko | haha why not? | 16:53 |
| Evilenko | is it so bad? | 16:53 |
| DexterF | I need finer control over grub2. like: order of entries, visibility of entries. but it's all fully automated and not much too my liking. what can I do? | 16:54 |
| LoganJRuff | twiztid, please do not recommend alpha to newbies. =) | 16:54 |
| acicula | Evilenko: you can only try out the development version of the new ubuntu, once its released you can upgrade to it from 10.10, until then its explicityly not supported here, ask in #ubuntu+1 | 16:54 |
| BluesKaj | Evilenko, ask in #ubuntu+1 , if you have any questions about 11.04 | 16:54 |
| IdleOne | Evilenko: #ubuntu+1 for help with 11.04 | 16:54 |

| Evilenko | aha.. then I'm staying with 10.10 :D | 16:54 |
| Evilenko | thx guys! | 16:54 |

| Evilenko | if i want to write to you LoganJRuff? how do i do that? | 16:55 |
| LoganJRuff | You send private messages via /msg usernamehere message is here | 16:56 |

| twiztid | sacarlson: YA! in the credentials file i had to include "@(domain name)" after "username=windowsusername" | 16:56 |
| sacarlson | twiztid: ya add that to a forum, I see people strugle with it on a daily basis | 16:56 |

| twiztid | so my credentials looks like this now, username=twiztid@MSHOME and all is good in fstab and its sittin pretty on my desktop! :) | 16:56 |
| LoganJRuff | Howdy joaojoao | 16:56 |
| acicula | glaceman: vdpau is a hardware feature present in some (modern) (nvidia) videocards. to use it you need the hardware and i think also the nvidia drivers enabled. | 16:57 |
| joaojoao | anyone here knows how to make the wlan work properly in a lg x140-1010 netbook? | 16:57 |

| PsPhaKeR_ | I installed Ubuntu 10.10 on one of my old laptops and I cannot connect to a wireless network | 16:57 |
| acicula | joaojoao: have you tried connecting to ethernet and letting it update? | 16:58 |
| LoganJRuff | joaojoao, For specific issues, like that, you really will do better by Googling. Before we get started, did you even attempt to research your issue? | 16:58 |
| PsPhaKeR_ | It says "device not ready(firmware missing)" | 16:58 |
| joaojoao | I tried, some say it works fine | 16:58 |
| acicula | PsPhaKeR_: same for you, did you run ubuntu updates using an ethernet cable? | 16:58 |
| acicula | joaojoao: i dont understand that. | 16:58 |
| PsPhaKeR_ | acicula: no, it just installed | 16:58 |
| joaojoao | but I can't enable/disable it with the Fn key | 16:58 |

| JackStoner | hey does anyone use an asus A42JC with linux successfully??? | 17:00 |
| glaceman | thanks acicula | 17:00 |
| acicula | PsPhaKeR_: plugging in a working network cable should trigger the update mechanism, if not its under Administration -> update manager | 17:00 |
| PsPhaKeR_ | acicula: Ok, will try that now | 17:00 |
| acicula | (while connected) | 17:00 |
| joaojoao | This is kind of weird, iwconfig lists the device | 17:00 |
| LoganJRuff | flonarsonar, when you have installed pastebinit you can pipe the output of commands to pastebin and get a URL back as output. In other words: ls | pastebinit will return www.gohere.com) and you can give us that www.gohere.com... | 17:01 |
| flonarsonar | Loganjruff: E:unable to locate package pastebinit | 17:01 |
| acicula | joaojoao: did you plugin a network cable, did you run update manager and did that finish all the way | 17:01 |
| acicula | flonarsonar: its a website | 17:01 |

| acicula | flonarsonar: open browser , go here -> http://paste.ubuntu.com <-. go to terminal, select all, ctrl-c, go to browser, ctrl-v, copy link and paste it in irc | 17:02 |
| LoganJRuff | flonarsonar, acicula I am sorry. I misunderstood. Flonarsonar - pastebin is a website and pastebinit is a tool we use via CLI. If you can't get the box online then my command won't work. My bad!! | 17:02 |
| joaojoao | I suspect it has something to do with power management, going to Ubuntu again to try some config stuff, brb | 17:02 |

| skutr3 | i dont know how to get into my firefox installation directory | 17:05 |
| dokma | when I try ifup eth0 it says there is no such interface | 17:05 |
| dokma | but it is listed upon sudo ifconfig | 17:05 |
| dokma | any ideas??? | 17:06 |
| ePirat | i have a short question, i use the vnc feature of ubuntu 10.10, and i can identify with 2 different passwords | 17:06 |
| ePirat | why? | 17:06 |
| twiztid | sacarlson: i also edited /etc/nsswitch.conf from "files mdns4_minimal [NOTFOUND=return] dns mdns4" to "files mdns4_minimal [NOTFOUND=return] wins dns mdns4" so that should i choose to use the server name... but i have it on a static ip so i dont matter.. | 17:06 |
| acicula | flonarsonar: k, whats the linux machines ip/mask/gateway and routing entries, should be two at least. also can you check your switch to make sure you are not using a port thats shared with the uplink port(ie either use one or the other but not both at the same time) | 17:06 |
| LoganJRuff | dokma, unload it then reload it? | 17:06 |
| LinuxRULES | dokma: have you enable the drivers? in system -> administration-> additional dirvers | 17:06 |
| skutr3 | anyone? | 17:06 |
| twiztid | sacarlson: and MSHOME is the name of MY workgroup on my xp machine | 17:06 |
| acicula | dokma: can you set an ip via sudo ifconfig eth0 up <ip> ? | 17:06 |

| acicula | flonarsonar: seems fine, what about the routing table, and can you try plugging the cable into an other port | 17:07 |
| LinuxRULES | dokma: if the ethernet works? connect the laptop with cable, then activate the wireless drivers in: Additional drivers | 17:07 |
| PsPhaKeR_ | acicula: I kind of lied when I said it was already installed :) and it keeps getting stuck at the installation screen, the loading cursor just keeps spinning | 17:08 |
| dokma | my router is not setup with dhcp but rather with static ip adressess | 17:08 |
| dokma | LinuxRULES: tx! | 17:08 |
| acicula | PsPhaKeR_: try the alternate installation disc | 17:08 |
| Bipul` | OK can i change mine account name ? | 17:08 |
| LoganJRuff | skutr3, logan@Lachance:~/.mozilla/firefox$ cd /home/logan/.mozilla/firefox | 17:08 |
| LinuxRULES | dokma: no problem :D | 17:08 |
| flonarsonar | acicula: I just saw the routing thing, I havent put anything in there. I just changed the port now | 17:08 |
| PsPhaKeR_ | acicula: What do you mean by that? | 17:08 |
| wildc4rd | evening all! | 17:08 |
| flonarsonar | acicula: So I need to put something into the routes tab aswell? | 17:09 |
| acicula | PsPhaKeR_: there is an installation cd/dvd/image called alternate, its a bit more spartan | 17:09 |
| BluesKaj | dokma, ok try , sudo dhclient , it will still look for your static ip if it's listed as static in /etc/network/interfaces | 17:10 |
| dokma | LinuxRULES: I have no additional drivers section | 17:10 |
| acicula | flonarsonar: just paste whats in there, or type it over. they shouldnt be empty no | 17:10 |
| LinuxRULES | dokma: System -> Administration -> Additional drivers ? | 17:10 |
| flonarsonar | acicula: I paste what I put in the ipv4 settings? | 17:10 |
| acicula | flonarsonar: no, output of route -n | 17:11 |
| dokma | LinuxRULES: no such thing in administration on 'Hardware Drivers' | 17:11 |
| flonarsonar | acicula: I type route -n on my mac then and paste it from there to the linux machine? | 17:11 |
| dokma | only 'Hardware Drivers' | 17:11 |
| PsPhaKeR_ | acicula: I am still a little confused... I can just search and download it? | 17:12 |
| acicula | flonarsonar: nvm, new plan. can you unplug the cable from the linux laptop and plug it into the mac and see if the mac gets an ip still/can connect? | 17:12 |
| acicula | PsPhaKeR_: same place you got your curent ubuntu installation media yes | 17:12 |

| PsPhaKeR_ | acicula: Do you mean the USB method? | 17:13 |
| acicula | flonarsonar: can you try pinging the gateway on the mac | 17:13 |

| cybersnoop | Hi. My encrypted home folder seems to be corrupted. I keep getting: "Valid eCryptfs headers not found in file header region or xattr region" in my kernel log all the time. | 17:14 |
| acicula | are you using wireless on the mac or was it plugged in before? | 17:14 |
| cybersnoop | How can I repair it? | 17:14 |
| FrozenKnight | Is there a thing, like VNC for console "screen"s ? | 17:14 |
| compdoc | sponix, I see ppl in here having weird issues with it - I run 10.04.1 LTS | 17:14 |
| erUSUL | FrozenKnight: ssh | 17:14 |
| acicula | FrozenKnight: ssh? | 17:14 |
| bloblbo | xangua acicula I used the built in installation tool - the Ubuntu Software Center ( 2.0.7) . There was no gunzip but 7zip was there so I installed it. Although it was just lightened version of 7zip's full version it did the job. Here's how I handled it: After installing I opened console and used this command: 7z x "My precious - AndDesiredFile.zip.001" ...where the command x was -- x: eXtract files with full paths -- Thanks for any inconvenience | 17:15 |
| bloblbo | I brought You with my simple problem. And truly thanks again! | 17:15 |
| Dr_Willis | FrozenKnight: yes there is a framebeffeer vnc i recall | 17:15 |
| FrozenKnight | So I can connect from any other system with ssh and be able to see the screens? :) | 17:15 |
| Dr_Willis | FrozenKnight: better to use screen | 17:15 |
| Dr_Willis | FrozenKnight: screen does that. better then vnc would | 17:15 |
| acicula | flonarsonar: are you using wireless on the mac or was it plugged in before? | 17:15 |
| Dr_Willis | FrozenKnight: or 'byobu' theres some other ways also to do it. | 17:15 |
| Dr_Willis | FrozenKnight: but screen is a must learn tool | 17:15 |
| erUSUL | FrozenKnight: you get a terminal. but not the same ones as the ones in alt + f1 if you are talking about that | 17:16 |
| flonarsonar | acicula: I was using wireless, and then plugged in the ethernet disabled the wireless and it worked | 17:16 |
| bullgard4 | What is the funktion of the ~/Software/ directory? It appears on a Lucid and on a Maverick computer of mine. Another ubuntero tells me that it does not exist on his computer. Is it no default Ubuntu directory? | 17:16 |
| sponix | compdoc: yeah, figured dropping back a bit to LTS was worth a shot, I'm using it to keep backups of my Wii games on ext3 anyway for the most part. Just need something stable | 17:16 |
| FrozenKnight | Thank you Dr_Willis , now is this available for other platforms? :) | 17:16 |
| Dr_Willis | FrozenKnight: screen? if you can ssh - you can screen | 17:16 |
| FrozenKnight | erUSUL: that was what I was thinking... | 17:16 |
| FrozenKnight | Thanks Dr_Willis , I'll read on the subject :) | 17:16 |
| acicula | flonarsonar: hmm, how old is the linux laptop/when was the last time you use the ethernet port on ti | 17:16 |
| FrozenKnight | Thanks erUSUL, acicula and Dr_Willis ! :) | 17:16 |
| cybersnoop | I keep getting: "Valid eCryptfs headers not found in file header region or xattr region" in my kernel log all the time and disk access seems really slow. What should i do? | 17:16 |
| flonarsonar | acicula: It is a couple of years old, had windows 7 on like a week or so ago and it was working. | 17:17 |
| twiztid | FrozenKnight: Teamviewer6 is free and blows vnc out of the water! i use it at home and away and its flawless! oh and did i mention its free??? http://www.teamviewer.com/index.aspx | 17:17 |
| erUSUL | FrozenKnight: it looks like you want "ssh + screen ('byobu' ) " like others have pointed out | 17:17 |
| acicula | flonarsonar: were you using the ethernet connection? | 17:17 |
| FrozenKnight | fratzbc: yeah, I like the idea, but I was thinking of using this PC as a server so without graphical interface. | 17:17 |
| flonarsonar | acicula: I was mainly using wireless but I used ethernet aswell | 17:17 |
| FrozenKnight | sorry fratzbc | 17:17 |
| FrozenKnight | twiztid: yeah, I like the idea, but I was thinking of using this PC as a server so without graphical interface. | 17:18 |

| acicula | nirazio: it means you added a repository but not the repository key | 17:23 |
| pcfreak30 | nirazio, um, you need to import the public key. the website of the repo you are adding prob gives a command to do that. all repops use a public-private gpg key | 17:23 |

| witwolf | I was wondering if anyone can help me. I have a bash script that is run under my username. I need to issue a command "sudo -H -u deluge" how can I get it to not ask for a password. I have had no luck with sudoers | 17:24 |
| witwolf | . | 17:24 |
| yeats | nirazio: its for that exact repo | 17:24 |
| skutr3 | Ok how do i remove ubuntu? | 17:25 |
| nirazio | yeats: Do you want me to execute those commands? | 17:25 |
| skutr3 | I want it off my pc | 17:25 |
| pcfreak30 | witwolf,in sudoers u can tell it to no ask for a passwd with the correct config,o/c thats for your whole accounmt and could be considered a security issue | 17:25 |
| glaceman | skutr3: are u dual booting with another operating system ? | 17:25 |
| skutr3 | glaceman: yes windows 7 | 17:25 |
| yeats | nirazio: nope - that's up to you - I'm just sharing the resource I found ;-) | 17:25 |
| flonarsonar | acicula: did you get that? | 17:25 |
| Dr_Willis | skutr3: use partiton tools to d3elete partitons.. reinstall bootloader for the OS you want to use. | 17:25 |
| pcfreak30 | skutr3, hehe ur funny. um get a windows install. baclup data. boot to to the cd and install. sry to see u leave ubuntu | 17:25 |
| glaceman | skutr3: go to win7 and download vista boot loader | 17:25 |
| glaceman | skutr3: so u can edit the bootloader | 17:26 |
| acicula | flonarsonar: that nic should just work with linux from what i can tell | 17:26 |
| glaceman | skutr3: delete the ubuntu folder from windows on ur parititons ( u know where u install it, c or d ) | 17:26 |
| skutr3 | i have vista bootloader | 17:26 |
| Dr_Willis | i never have figred out how to reinstall the win7 bootloader from within win7. just from the win7 restore partition/cds | 17:26 |
| glaceman | skutr3: under vista bootloader simply remove the ubuntu | 17:26 |
| skutr3 | i dont know where that is though | 17:26 |
| pcfreak30 | skutr3, the simple way. backup data and use a reinstall cd. and it does the rest | 17:26 |
| bullgard4 | What is the funktion of the ~/Software/ directory? It appears on a Lucid and on a Maverick computer of mine. Another ubuntero tells me that it does not exist on his computer. Is it no default Ubuntu directory? | 17:26 |
| alkisg | witwolf: you have a "deluge" user and you want to run something in this account? Maybe it'd be better to install ssh and use ssh-copy-id to that account, so that you can use `ssh deluge@localhost command` without a password instead. | 17:26 |
| Dr_Willis | bullgard4: ive never seen it befor. | 17:27 |
| pcfreak30 | skutr3, o/c u do have to boot to the cd, just to be clear... | 17:27 |
| bullgard4 | Dr_Willis: I see. But it is on 2 of my computers. | 17:27 |
| Dr_Willis | bullgard4: something may have created it.. ive Never seen it on any of the dozen+ pcs ive messed with | 17:27 |

| acicula | flonarsonar: weird, maybe i missed something obvious but all i get back to is faulty network (settings) or nic. Is it possible to reinstall the win7 installation to verify the nic works? Alternatively maybe its disabled in the bios, but then i would expect you to not be able to bring up the interface at all | 17:28 |

| Shaula | Hi from ubuntu 10.10 32 bit live cd, I have 4gb of ram and when I top from the command line I see that the system sees 3gb of ram, how can I activae PAE? I want to be sure that it works with 4gb of ram before installing | 17:31 |
| flonarsonar | acicula: what if I connect the mac and the linux machine into eachother? | 17:31 |
| Dr_Willis | Shaula: you ahv to isntall the pae kernel. that wont work on a lvie cd. | 17:32 |
| alkisg | witwolf: perhaps it'd be better if you described what you wanted. To execute something as another user, with 2 commands you can do the ssh solution. Or you can mess with sudoers, which is not really recommented, but it's up to you. | 17:32 |
| bastidrazor | chd: a friend of mine made a script to basically enable you to 'uncprs' any file if you have them installed. http://pastebin.com/TCKqctSd .. copy this to a file make it +x and add it to your ~/bin | 17:32 |
| witwolf | alkisg: I would prefer if I can do it with sudoers. I added carel ALL = (deluge) NOPASSWD: ALL, but the command still asks for a password | 17:32 |
| MrUnagi | alkisg: it isnt that it didnt work per se its that i am getting results that dont contain that phrase | 17:32 |
| PsPhaKeR_ | acicula: What you said did not work | 17:32 |
| Shaula | Dr_Willisİ; if I install it does it autmatically setup the pae kernel, or do I have to make install manually | 17:33 |
| witwolf | alkisg: I am not sure how to do the SSH command. | 17:33 |
| alkisg | MrUnagi: paste the sentence, you may have special characters that need to be escaped etc | 17:33 |

| cp24eva | dpac, ok let me try. | 17:50 |
| egsome | ActionParsnip, Can't find one, found only Rabbit but it's still in beta | 17:50 |
| Myrtti | cp24eva: you can exit with ctrl-x, and it will prompt you to save then too | 17:50 |
| p1oooop | egsome: what's wrong with beta? 0.o | 17:51 |
| dpac_ | Sheepherd: Thats tty or virtual terminal. Its not init3. | 17:51 |

| Sheepherd | dpac_, kk... so how do i leave that tty? | 17:51 |
| Myrtti | cp24eva: if you've already saved your changes with ctrl-o, then it wont | 17:51 |
| cp24eva | compdoc, I was thinkin about that write out. so I was right lol. Thanks guys | 17:51 |
| dpac_ | Sheepherd: Ctrl+Alt+f7 or f8, depending on the number of ttys you have | 17:52 |
| p1oooop | egsome: hmm... I see | 17:52 |
| compdoc | cp24eva, if you dont run 'sudo nano test.txt' it might not save anything | 17:52 |
| Sheepherd | k | 17:52 |
| Sheepherd | hope that works :) | 17:52 |
| Sheepherd | greeeeat :D | 17:52 |
| cp24eva | compdoc, test.txt? that just opens a test file? | 17:53 |
| jamescarr_ | so | 17:53 |
| yeats | !trac | egsome: this is well tested | 17:53 |
| ubottu | egsome: this is well tested: trac is an open source, enhanced wiki and issue tracking system for software development projects. Look here for a Trac How To on Ubuntu: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuTracHowto | 17:53 |
| Sheepherd | secondly: somehow my display looks funny... http://img.xrmb2.net/images/689498.png | 17:53 |
| compdoc | sudo is the point I was making. test.txt is a sample file name | 17:53 |
| jamescarr_ | earlier I enabled the graphic drivers and had to reboot, once I rebooted I could no longer boot into X anymore and had to just reinstall ubuntu | 17:53 |

| kinks | when I print multiple pages, rather than printing them all immediately one after another, my printer is pausing for a long period of time between each page. I have a Samsung ML2010, the latest version of CUPS, and I'm on 10.10 desktop. What might be causing this? I'm printing from evince.. | 17:54 |

| Ascavasaion | I format a disk on an old Windows 98 machine, then mount it in Ubuntu. I then copy a single EXE file to the disk, unmount it and then try to copy that file onto the windows machine and the disk has errors. Any ideas? Why does Linux always battles with floppy disks? Is it a permanent Linux bug, because I have always had trouble with Linux and floppies on the rare occasions I try to use them. | 17:55 |

| Sheepherd | i used gedit up until now but this wont do the trick obviously | 18:02 |
| Sheepherd | is it emacs or smthing? dont remember | 18:03 |
| ActionParsnip | jkalex05: try: sudo mkdir /etc/adobe; echo "OverrideGPUValidation=true" | sudo tee /etc/adobe/mms.cfg | 18:03 |

| e-anima | acicula, i didnt ask that | 18:03 |
| dpac_ | Sheepherd: If you want to edit files you can use cli based editor like 'vim' or 'nano'. You can just use 'cat' to display the contents. | 18:03 |
| p1oooop | Phoebus: that sometimes happens with unsupported devices | 18:03 |
| acicula | e-anima: its 6 months intervals with fixed dates | 18:03 |
| a-saint | acicula I believe the answer was for me | 18:03 |
| kinks | dpac_: for future reference, the printing also works fine with adobe reader - evince appears to be the problem. | 18:03 |
| e-anima | ;) | 18:03 |
| kinks | oh well. | 18:03 |
| Dr_Willis | Sheepherd: emacs, vi, nano, pico | 18:03 |
| Sheepherd | dpac_, aaaaah vim. thx alot =) | 18:04 |
| p1oooop | Phoebus: either that or you didn't enable it, :P | 18:04 |

| glaceman | is there any known viruses that can affect ubuntu ? i mean does an antivirus is necessary ? | 18:45 |
| onfire | !screen | 18:45 |
| ubottu | Screen is a window manager for terminal sessions, also useful over SSH. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Screen | 18:45 |
| AbhiJit | !virus | glaceman | 18:45 |
| ubottu | glaceman: Antivirus is something you don't need on !Linux, except where files are then passed to windows computers (perhaps using samba), See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Antivirus | 18:45 |
| Datz | onfire: yea, you'll most likely want to run it in screen | 18:45 |

| ubottu | For help on installing and using Ubuntu on a mac, see: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MactelSupportTeam/CommunityHelpPages | 18:47 |
| vocx | onfire, this is the Ubuntu support channel. If you are just generally learning to use IRC, irssi or screen, you should go to another room. In general it's not right to talk about here just about random programs. | 18:47 |

| MrUnagi | is it possible, with iptables or any method, to automatically block an ip that has failed an ssh login x number of times? | 18:49 |
| AbhiJit | !sound | mhahe | 18:49 |
| ubottu | mhahe: If you're having problems with sound, click the Volume applet, then Sound Preferences, and check your Volume, Hardware, Input, and Output settings. If that fails, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Sound - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting - http://alsa.opensrc.org/DmixPlugin - For playing audio files, see !players and !mp3. | 18:49 |
| p1oooop | cogglesz: no prob :) | 18:49 |
| h00k | MrUnagi: check out fail2ban | 18:49 |
| MrUnagi | or even block ips that tried to ssh into root? | 18:49 |
| h00k | MrUnagi: sudo apt-get install fail2ban, done. | 18:49 |
| MrUnagi | h00k: no config required? lol | 18:49 |
| p1oooop | PerSeL: erm, disable it? | 18:49 |

| p1oooop | :) | 18:57 |
| lithionlx | @ Faviouz open terminal and run "sudo lspci" (without the quotes) | 18:57 |
| lithionlx | find your nic card in the list | 18:57 |
| faviouz | ok, do I need to be connected to do that? | 18:57 |
| soreau | jeff_: On the printer properties (assuming you already have the printer working) just choose to share it in the printer menu | 18:57 |
| lithionlx | no | 18:57 |
| faviouz | Alright, just a sec. | 18:57 |

| AbhiJit | Datz, yah may be. i diddnt tried it. i loves gnome! | 19:04 |
| * Datz wonders if he could get used to unity over gnome... | 19:04 | |
| soreau | jeff_: First try just pinging the boxes both ways. Can you ping the IP address of the windows machine from ubuntu and vice-versa? | 19:04 |
| jeff_ | soreau yep | 19:05 |
| Datz | AbhiJit: I do too. But I guess 10.04 is going to ship with unity default, yes? | 19:05 |
| NimBiotics | <AbhiJit>, closed captioning for videos for example | 19:05 |

| ActionParsnip | LinuxRULES: there is no single best app for ANYTHING | 19:07 |
| AbhiJit | Datz, 10.04 is lucid which is already released and it is lts | 19:07 |
| soreau | jeff_: The output of that command from your terminal. It should only be one line | 19:07 |
| AbhiJit | !best | LinuxRULES | 19:07 |
| ubottu | LinuxRULES: Usually, there is no single "best" application to perform a given task. It's up to you to choose, depending on your preferences, features you require, and other factors. Do NOT take polls in the channel. If you insist on getting people's opinions, ask BestBot in #ubuntu-bots. | 19:07 |
| compdoc | doalittledance, both cards show up in windows? | 19:07 |
| ActionParsnip | LinuxRULES: globalmenu will be a suitable solution as is globalmenu, I don't know of any other | 19:07 |
| LinuxRULES | ActionParsnip: okey but can you write some of the global menu that are out there? | 19:08 |
| ActionParsnip | LinuxRULES: there is no single best app for anything in Windows either | 19:08 |
| ActionParsnip | LinuxRULES: i only know globalmenu personally | 19:08 |
| doalittledance | ActionParsnip, compdoc: I believe it is enabled because both cards show up in windows. | 19:08 |

| soreau | jeff_: I said service cups status | 19:09 |
| Datz | meant 11.04 (Datz is on 10.04) | 19:09 |
| jeff_ | soreau guess i dont understand | 19:09 |
| ActionParsnip | doalittledance: ok then can you use the alsa-info script on the sound troubleshooting page and give the link to the info | 19:09 |
| ActionParsnip | !sound | doalittledance | 19:09 |
| ubottu | doalittledance: If you're having problems with sound, click the Volume applet, then Sound Preferences, and check your Volume, Hardware, Input, and Output settings. If that fails, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Sound - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting - http://alsa.opensrc.org/DmixPlugin - For playing audio files, see !players and !mp3. | 19:09 |
| p1oooop | ikonia: hey, can I throw my bot into #ubuntu-bots? | 19:09 |
| soreau | jeff_: I asked for the command service cups status but you have only shown the output of service cups | 19:09 |
| ActionParsnip | Datz: natty is discussed and supported in #ubuntu+1 | 19:10 |
| compdoc | sound cards tend to use the same resources: irqs, memory address ranges, etc. They do that to be compatible. How would you even tell an OS which sounds come out of which card? or do both cards work at the same time for the same sounds? | 19:10 |
| Datz | ActionParsnip: ok.. | 19:10 |
| jeff_ | soreau: jeff@ubuntuServer:~$ service cups status | 19:10 |
| jeff_ | Status of Common Unix Printing System: cupsd is running. | 19:10 |
| ActionParsnip | jeff_: that needs prefixing with sudo | 19:11 |
| ActionParsnip | jeff_: oh, status is ok ;) | 19:11 |
| doalittledance | comdoc: I use the sound cards one at a time, but need to be able to switch between them | 19:11 |
| soreau | jeff_: Ok so what happens when you try to go to http://<ubuntu-10.04-ip-address>:631/printers from the 7 machine? | 19:11 |
| doalittledance | compdoc even | 19:11 |

| LoganJRuff | skutr3, You want to completely remove Ubuntu? | 19:16 |
| skutr3 | yes Logan | 19:16 |
| AbhiJit | skutr3, delete ubuntu partition from win and then restro win mbr. to know how to restore win mbr get help in ##windows. and dont delete ubuntu partition until you have confirm working info of how to restore win mb r | 19:16 |
| LoganJRuff | skutr3, like Abhijit said... Is there something wrong with your Ubuntu? | 19:17 |
| jeff_ | spreau: it shows the cups interface | 19:17 |
| skutr3 | yes | 19:17 |

| ubottu | jeff_: You can use your <tab> key for autocompletion of nicknames in IRC, as well as for completion of filenames and programs on the command line. | 19:19 |

| jeff_ | haha | 19:20 |
| soreau | jeff_: Now the only thing left you have to do is install it so go to windows control panel, select add new network printer and put in the exact address of the cups interface | 19:20 |
| doalittledance | compdoc: here's the output of alsa-info http://www.alsa-project.org/db/?f=558b8dc4c78030e1c62ae0ba016b479fa01a4771 | 19:20 |
| skutr3 | LoganJRuff, are you still there? | 19:20 |
| LoganJRuff | skutr3, p1oooop is attempting to say that Ubuntu, like all *nixes, is a bit more hands on and doesn't tend to baby you as much as Windows. It requires a bit more patience and expertise | 19:20 |
| jeff_ | trying | 19:20 |

| IdleOne | skutr3: you will need to restore the MBR, ##windows can help you with that, after you delete the ubuntu partition. BUT first make sure you have instructions on restoring the MBR | 19:21 |
| jeff_ | ok | 19:21 |
| soreau | jeff_: But the important thing is that it finds your printer in the install printer wizard | 19:21 |

| vocx | Kruptein, oh, you did it already, and only now you are asking if it's safe enough?! He he! You could probably reinstall. Or try to reinstall gnome? | 20:02 |
| Hypoglybetic | Hello Everyone. I need help configuring a fakeRAID or softwareRAID on my nForce 680i SLi motherboard for Ubuntu Server - OR if Ubuntu Desktop is easier then I'll need help setting it up as a server. Can anyone assist me? I'm a level 1 noob. :) | 20:02 |
| Kruptein | vocx nono :D I did the keyrings thing to avoid the annoying message @ login, but I erased a litle bit to much :D | 20:03 |
| Kruptein | vocx and I think resetting gnome is the only solution, hence the link | 20:03 |
| ner0x | I have to say, ubuntu (Gnome) has greatly surpassed KDE in integration, speed, and usability. | 20:03 |
| vocx | Kruptein, you followed some tutorial to avoid some "annoying message at login"? | 20:03 |
| Hypoglybetic | Which is the default, Gnome or KDE? | 20:03 |
| Ed_M | Is there a nautilus extension out there that'll let me create a torrent through the right-click menu? | 20:03 |
| vocx | Hypoglybetic, Ubuntu uses the Gnome desktop as default, while Kubuntu uses KDE. But both desktops, and others, can be installed later. | 20:04 |
| Hypoglybetic | I see. | 20:04 |
| Hypoglybetic | Any suggestion for my fakeraid issue? | 20:05 |
| vocx | !desktop | Hypoglybetic | 20:05 |
| ubottu | Hypoglybetic: A desktop environment is what "puts the pieces of a !GUI together". The available desktop environments in Ubuntu are !GNOME (ubuntu-desktop), !KDE (kubuntu-desktop), !Xfce (xubuntu-desktop), IceWM, !Fluxbox, WindowMaker (wmaker), FVWM and others - See also !Flavors | 20:05 |
| Kruptein | vocx yes in some way and I never do it again, :D I can say I know ubuntu quite well and I do know when something can be trust or not, only the .gnome2 dir is unknown terrain for me :D | 20:05 |
| olskolirc | can someone tell me if portsentry is any good? do we still use it or is there anything better? | 20:06 |
| Hypoglybetic | Ah, I am very profecient with computers, just not Linux. ...yet! | 20:06 |
| OmnipotentEntity | printheads needed cleaning | 20:06 |
| OmnipotentEntity | done and done. | 20:06 |
| vocx | Kruptein, but what did you do exactly? I see no "annoying message". I do remember some distributions ago, may be 3, the password was asked to connect to activate my wireless connection, one distribution later, it was no longer needed. | 20:06 |
| olskolirc | nobody is Hypoglybetic linux is a lifetime learning experience | 20:07 |
| Kruptein | vocx but now the annoying messages are my problem not anymore :D as I can't login anyway | 20:07 |
| Kruptein | I'm going to reinstall gnome | 20:07 |

| Kruptein | can I do sudo apt-get remove --purge gnome? | 20:07 |
| Kruptein | or is it gnome2? | 20:07 |
| Hypoglybetic | So, is anyone free to help me with my fakeRAID or where do i take a number? | 20:08 |
| vocx | Kruptein, yes, perhaps something like that. | 20:08 |
| vocx | !raid | Hypoglybetic | 20:08 |
| ubottu | Hypoglybetic: Tips and tricks for RAID and LVM can be found on https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/SoftwareRAID and http://www.tldp.org/HOWTO/LVM-HOWTO - For software RAID, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FakeRaidHowto | 20:08 |
| olskolirc | sudo apt-get --purge remove ubuntu-desktop if you want to remove gnome Kruptein | 20:08 |
| Kruptein | olskolirc: okay thanks | 20:08 |
| vocx | Hypoglybetic, I don't know about RAID but perhaps those pages are of help to you. | 20:08 |
| * olskolirc hopes he has a back up desktop to work within | 20:09 | |
| Hypoglybetic | Vocx, I've read those. They don't help me. | 20:09 |
| Kruptein | olskolirc: and I assume I just do sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop again? | 20:09 |
| olskolirc | yeppers Kruptein | 20:09 |
| vocx | Kruptein, that would be "reinstall", so it reinstalls. | 20:09 |
| olskolirc | im on kubuntu Kruptein and when i need a new desktop I just do sudo rm -rf .kde but that may or may not be a quick fix for ubuntu users...can anyone verify? | 20:10 |
| Hypoglybetic | vocx, It seems all of the raid stuff is for Ubuntu Desktop. How hard would it be to convert a desktop installation into a server post installation? | 20:10 |
| jdelanoy | I've tried installing Ubuntu via Wubi, and by burning an image to a disc, and in either case, it steadfastly refuses to write an entry to my BCD, so I can't boot into it. I tried booting to the CD drive, but it kept throwing errors when I tried to load ubuntu directly from the disk. I ran a disc integrity check, and it said that there is nothing wrong with it | 20:10 |
| jdelanoy | any ideas? | 20:10 |
| gobbe | Hypoglybetic: it's same base | 20:10 |
| gobbe | Hypoglybetic: so same lines work in server also | 20:11 |
| Kruptein | okay I assume that's what olskolirc meant, If I do sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop I get an immensive list of packages and then couldn't fetch certain archives (translated) | 20:11 |
| vocx | Hypoglybetic, okay, here's another tip. Whenever you ask for help, say that you've tried the Ubuntu docs. | 20:11 |
| Hypoglybetic | I'm sitting at the server installation "partiion disk" menu and I don't see how to configure my disks. It didn't give me any options. | 20:11 |
| olskolirc | Kruptein, thats the whole desktop packages coming back | 20:11 |
| Kruptein | olskolirc: yes but it fails.. | 20:12 |
| gobbe | Hypoglybetic: what do you have in your screen now? | 20:12 |
| Kruptein | it can't fetch some archives | 20:12 |
| olskolirc | sudo apt-get -f install Kruptein | 20:12 |
| dwarder | can anyone take a look at this smart output, should i move it to trash http://pastebin.com/RyqAnfdq | 20:12 |
| Kruptein | olskolirc: same problem | 20:12 |
| vocx | Hypoglybetic, a desktop is the same as a server, there is basically no difference. Desktops have a graphical desktop, while servers usually don't, and have some LAMP preinstalled. But you can install a Graphical desktop to your server anyways. What do you want to do with your server exactly? | 20:12 |
| olskolirc | sounds like you have broken packages Kruptein sudo synaptic | 20:13 |
| Kruptein | olskolirc: how am I going to get into synaptic if I do not have ubuntu-desktop? :D | 20:13 |

| WorthyOfUrAttn | its a terminal package installer Kruptein | 20:14 |
| BeowulfZohan | Hello all. i was going to ask a quick question, but as it seems, my problem allieviated itself in the time it took for me to connect to this channel, so thanks for the help! it's funny how that works sometimes, isn't it. it's like technology is afraid of solutions. | 20:14 |
| WorthyOfUrAttn | no dear not at all Kruptein | 20:14 |
| Kruptein | which one do you mean? | 20:14 |
| vocx | Kruptein, "sudo aptitude reinstall ubuntu-desktop", can you post in a pastebin the output of that? Perhaps you have messed up sources list. | 20:15 |
| Kruptein | vocx: okay | 20:15 |
| WorthyOfUrAttn | I"m thinking Kruptein | 20:15 |
| WorthyOfUrAttn | he can't vocx he has broken packages | 20:15 |
| ner0x | I get "Failed to delete contact (Other error)" Happen often? | 20:15 |
| vocx | WorthyOfUrAttn, let's see the output anyway | 20:15 |
| WorthyOfUrAttn | right | 20:15 |
| Kruptein | vocx: okay this was retarted :D ubuntu-desktop is not installed and can't thus be reinstalled :D | 20:16 |
| WorthyOfUrAttn | what is the name of that other package manager that is stealthy like synaptic but its a terminal manager | 20:16 |
| jdelanoy | does anyone know what I need to type to manually add an entry to Win7's BCD pointing to an installation of Ubuntu? | 20:16 |
| Hypoglybetic | Okay, I rebooted. I'm sitting at the "Detect Disks" "Activate Serial ATA RAID devices" ? Every time I press Yes I can't get past the next screen. Currently my disks are not in RAID mode. | 20:16 |
| vocx | Hypoglybetic, what you want to do can be done with a desktop or server, it's just that a server is for people who don't want to install the graphical desktop anyway. | 20:16 |
| Hypoglybetic | I love guis. Thats the first install on my list. | 20:17 |
| gobbe | Hypoglybetic: ok, so didn't it detect any disks? | 20:17 |
| gobbe | Hypoglybetic: it might be that your sata-controller is not supported | 20:17 |
| vocx | Hypoglybetic, you may then install the desktop first, and follow the instructions of those pages. | 20:17 |
| Hypoglybetic | Its Nforce! | 20:17 |
| Hypoglybetic | Everyone loves nForce! | 20:17 |
| Hypoglybetic | I'm thinking I will go with Desktop. | 20:18 |
| Hypoglybetic | Oh hey, when I selected "do not detect" it now shows all of them! It seems to be working. | 20:18 |
| vocx | Hypoglybetic, also, check out the ubuntuforums.org it's possible that somebody has more info on that. Check for your exact motherboard and "fake raid" or something like that. | 20:19 |
| ActionParsnip | hypoglybetic: if you are trying 64bit then try 32bit | 20:19 |
| Kruptein | WorthyOfUrAttn: dselect? | 20:19 |
| * Kruptein is just googling around | 20:19 | |
| Hypoglybetic | I think it is working, but I'm using purely software raid, not the chipset raid. | 20:19 |
| vocx | Kruptein, so you didn't install ubuntu-desktop? | 20:19 |
| WorthyOfUrAttn | im googling Kruptein what packagemanager did you find? | 20:20 |
| Hypoglybetic | Give me a few minutes to read the options. | 20:20 |
| Kruptein | vocx I removed it a couple of minutes ago | 20:20 |
| Kruptein | WorthyOfUrAttn: dselect :D | 20:20 |

| vocx | psience7, video card is a very broad term, more like "model", "chipset" | 20:22 |

| psience7 | vocx: Oh, what would be a good model/chipset, I am using an ATI HD4250 IGP right now its its not working very well | 20:23 |
| psience7 | I suppose its because the primary drivers are closed source | 20:23 |

| vocx | Migaaresno, you can follow the Ubuntu archives, don't know the URLs, but there are there. | 20:46 |

| rumpe2 | grashopper, use Xforwarding for ssh (ssh -Y user@host9 | 20:48 |
| vocx | ubnoob, you mean you need to enter the username and password? If you are the sole user of the computer, you can change that so that you are not asked for such username and password. | 20:48 |
| PsPhaKeR_ | nicolas: idk is there a way to check? | 20:48 |
| Migaaresno | ghostnik11, If its some cryptic error, the best way is as ubnoob said: use another burner. | 20:48 |
| ubnoob | ghostnik11: I understand but i don't have the answer for you on that one, sorry | 20:48 |
| nicolas | wait and ill try to find out... | 20:49 |

| ghostnik11 | ubnoob: k3b doesn't burn it either and just tried gnomebaker and it also gives me error saying file is 4gb and will not burn | 20:49 |
| vocx | PsPhaKeR_, if you don't know the make, model, or further characteristics of your computer, it's difficult to help solve the problem. Three or four years, is not a very long time. It's not really old. | 20:49 |

| Clockwerks77 | Ok, does it have a lumped searching format like vuze? | 21:07 |
| Hellz_Bellz | Clockwerks77: yes because its faster and simpler | 21:07 |
| Clockwerks77 | That's mainly why I use Vuze. | 21:07 |

| EnigmaticCoder | vocx: Hellz_Bellz, That only gets one line, a line that says Dec 27 | 21:08 |
| vocx | EnigmaticCoder, well, your question may be more elaborate. You want to output every single line belonging to Dec 27? With that command it may just give you that. | 21:08 |

| Hellz_Bellz | PsPhaKeR_: youll need to use wireless backports from the 2.6.35 kernel for b43 for anykind of stability with the broadcom | 21:10 |
| DEAD_BEEF | nicolas: apt-cache show arc | 21:10 |
| magicianlord | PsPhaKeR_: STA driver should work. if you are connected to the internet through a wired connection, it will download, install and active it. plug in hte network cable first. if not, you will need to download it offline and follow the instal | 21:10 |
| Hellz_Bellz | PsPhaKeR_: i have to use the b43 | 21:10 |

| magicianlord | DEAD_BEEF: i use netbook with solid state drives, and have not encountered this. another option may be that your motherboard chipset is incompatible with the firmware of the SSD to an extent and is causing this due to commuication issues. i think i read about that. | 21:49 |

| ghostnik11 | guntbert, your a genius it just gave me that option as soon as you said that | 21:54 |

| Hypoglybetic | unknown command linux | 22:07 |
| jaber | Plzz Help Me :( | 22:07 |
| jessd | jaber : Hmmm. The lock file is present because the system believes you have something open trying to install software | 22:07 |
| vlt | Hypoglybetic: Then try "kernel /<tab>" | 22:07 |
| mongy | jaber, sudo rm /var/lib/dpkg/lock | 22:07 |
| Hypoglybetic | when you say <tab> do you mean hit the TAB key? | 22:07 |
| jessd | jaber : Try this : from terminal, do "fuser /var/lib/dpkg/lock" | 22:07 |
| vlt | Hypoglybetic: <tab> is your tab key | 22:07 |

| Sephnroth | what does ubuntu actually do during install when its "automatically configuring the network"? and is there really no way to make it do the exact same thing from command line? all i can find information on is setting up my network interfaces manually | 22:08 |

| [DeVil-BoY] | good evening | 22:08 |

| chrisA1 | Hey, I made progress! | 22:38 |
| vlt | Sephnroth: You haven't assigned an IP address to eth0 | 22:38 |
| chrisA1 | Fixed /etc/resolv.conf to point at our actual router. | 22:38 |
| peloverde | I will sing all the praises of synaptic or aptitude or whatever else if some can help me with my e1000e driver | 22:38 |
| Sephnroth | the router should hand them out automatically? | 22:38 |
| chrisA1 | However, I'm now seeing something like 100 seconds to service 10 ping requests. Is this normal-ish? | 22:39 |
| chrisA1 | Actual ping times are about 13ms or so, so performance is fine, just the ping test seems kinda odd. | 22:39 |
| vlt | Sephnroth: You can do this manually in /etc/network/interfaces, with `ifconfig eth0 <ip>` or via DHCP | 22:39 |
| Boursier | hi, somebody know if ubuntu can access NTFS data? | 22:40 |
| vlt | Sephnroth: It's not the router that hands out IP addresses but a DHCP server. | 22:40 |
| WeThePeople | boursier, yes it can | 22:40 |
| newbie1 | i have solved btw. see you | 22:40 |
| sam-_- | !ntfs | Boursier | 22:40 |

| Boursier | thanks .. WeThePeople | 22:40 |
| Sephnroth | right | 22:41 |
| Sephnroth | vlt: thanks! just assigning it an ip got it working | 22:41 |
| Sephnroth | and it can ping the router now | 22:41 |
| vlt | Sephnroth: But yes, maybe the device you call "router" has one integrated ;-) | 22:41 |
| Sephnroth | will i have to do that each time I start the server however or will it remember it? | 22:41 |
| sam-_- | Sephnroth, did you set it via ifconfig? | 22:42 |
| Sephnroth | well the installer said it was configuring the network with dhcp, then said success, then i logged in and network was dead to my surprise | 22:42 |
| Sephnroth | yes | 22:42 |

| Sephnroth | ok | 22:42 |
| Sephnroth | np | 22:42 |

| pallawar | sai per caso come fare a scaricare da irc? | 22:44 |

| DIL | 22:45 | |
| ubottu | While Google is useful for helpers, many newer users don't have the google-fu yet. Please don't tell people to "google it" when they ask a question. | 22:45 |
| Sephnroth | sorry vlt im just being lazy now, i'll google it :) | 22:45 |
| ibankai7 | can anyone help me? i just installed ubuntu for netbook 10.10 and i plug in my ethernet but its not detecting it | 22:45 |
| vlt | Sephnroth: Example: auto eth0 \n iface eth0 inet dhcp | 22:45 |
| vlt | Sephnroth: \n is a line break | 22:45 |
| Onepamopa | ibankai7 ifconfig eth0 up ? | 22:45 |

| mdgeorge | I'm trying to apply some patches to my kernel. I used apt-get source to retreive it, and patched it up. Now I'm wondering how to turn that source back into a .deb that I can install | 22:51 |
| sam-_- | ybit, in gnome system -> prefs -> keyboard | 22:51 |
| mdgeorge | can anyone point me in the right direction? | 22:51 |
| baddy | i have created a partition in windows for ubuntu and gave it 20gb, how can i expand this partition(ive installed ubuntu 10.10) | 22:51 |
| newbie1 | mdgeorge: for what? | 22:51 |
| chrisA1 | Hey guys, repeat question: | 22:51 |
| sam-_- | mdgeorge, you don't need to make a *.deb | 22:51 |
| ChesterX | hi, I try to access the following folder ~/.mozilla . I can t find it in the file browser and when trying to open it through the terminal I only get the message "/.mozilla is a folder". Does anyone know how I could gain access to it? | 22:51 |
| Onepamopa | newbie1 he wants to compile kernel ;) | 22:52 |
| Onepamopa | the easy way ofc | 22:52 |
| newbie1 | oh sorry | 22:52 |
| Onepamopa | ;) | 22:52 |
| chrisA1 | Is 100 seconds normal for 10 ping requests, even if the p[ing times themselves are good? | 22:52 |
| sam-_- | mdgeorge, just copy the kernel and make modules-install | 22:52 |
| Onepamopa | mdgeorge u can configure it too before making it .deb | 22:52 |
| Onepamopa | it'd be better trust me ;) | 22:52 |
| Sephnroth | vlt: all working perfectly thanks :) took me a while to remember how to use VI then, its been so long since i used linux at all let alone command line only --; | 22:52 |
| Onepamopa | remove some not-needed stuff | 22:52 |
| newbie1 | chrisA1: seems a lot too much | 22:52 |
| sam-_- | mdgeorge, read here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Kernel/Compile | 22:52 |
| mdgeorge | thanks | 22:53 |
| newbie1 | you mean it stopped after 100 sec? | 22:53 |
| Crash1hd | I have created a group and assigned both users usera and userb to group icgrp001 have a folder in usera home directory that is part of icgrp001 and created a link in userb to /home/usera/folder yet when I try to cd to /home/userb/folder <- the symlink i get permision denied | 22:53 |
| Onepamopa | Sephnroth I only use command line ;) | 22:53 |
| Onepamopa | I hate gui's | 22:53 |
| Onepamopa | ;) | 22:53 |
| Sephnroth | when restarting the networking however it did output two lines chown and chmod "failed to get attribute of '/etc/resolv.conf' : no such file or directory <-- problem? it doesnt seem to of affected networking, ping works etc | 22:53 |
| Sephnroth | Onepamopa: each to their own :) | 22:53 |
| Crash1hd | the dir is set to 777 as well | 22:53 |
| newbie1 | but most people don't :-) | 22:53 |
| chrisA1 | newbie1: no, I Crtl-C'd it after that long. | 22:53 |
| sam-_- | chrisA1, what do you mean 100sec? | 22:54 |
| Sephnroth | no gui is a bit essential in this, im just setting up a server for version control and for network file backups (couldnt afford a NAS, but had a spare old pc hanging around) | 22:54 |
| Sephnroth | very rubbish old thing with 256 ram, but good enough for a server! | 22:54 |
| j0nr | nothingspecial: that worked thanks :) | 22:54 |
| newbie1 | maybe it won't stop by itself | 22:54 |
| mdgeorge | sam-_-: I assume I should follow the instructions for lucid since there are no mav. instructions? | 22:54 |
| ybit | Where specifically, I've searched on this menu for about 15 minutes now | 22:54 |
| newbie1 | unlike windows one | 22:54 |
| housam | hello | 22:54 |
| newbie1 | if the ping was fine you are done | 22:54 |
| chrisA1 | Sorry, I'll be clearer: producing 10 lines worth of 'PING www.google.com etc' took 100 seconds. | 22:55 |
| newbie1 | hello | 22:55 |
| === Putr is now known as Putr|Away | ||
| sam-_- | mdgeorge, i don't think anything has changed | 22:55 |

| mdgeorge | ok, thanks | 22:55 |
| newbie1 | but the msec of the ping? | 22:55 |

| pr0ph3t | what is the /dev name for the keyboard? | 23:06 |
| sam-_- | ybit, in gedit go to tools -> set language. does it solve your problem? | 23:06 |
| newbie1 | i told you if you can connect to non msn networks, yahoo ecc..if u have it | 23:07 |
| hobbel | Extreme ping as well | 23:07 |
| sam-_- | hobbel, might be interference. are you in an area with lots of wifi? | 23:07 |
| housam | yes i can connect yahoo | 23:07 |
| newbie1 | hobbel sure that it didn't change connection speed somewhat? | 23:07 |
| pr0ph3t | stdout dev is /dev/pts* or /dev/tty* what is it for stdin? | 23:07 |
| housam | and AIM | 23:07 |
| newbie1 | that's odd housam..try asking someone else..if has followed your statements | 23:08 |

| sam-_- | hobbel, wait 0.5? wifi just drops to 1mbit imho | 23:08 |
| housam | thaxxx for your time newbie | 23:08 |

| hobbel | sam-_- i'm going to reset my modem now, dhcp pools looks weird | 23:09 |
| newbie1 | pr0ph3t: i guess dev/tty* but im not sure | 23:09 |
| newbie1 | hobbel maybe the network subsystem has gone crazy | 23:09 |
| sam-_- | pr0ph3t, why not use /dev/stdin /dev/stdout | 23:10 |
| newbie1 | hobbel you said modem, so are you using a driver for it? | 23:10 |
| WhatToDo | why does my dvd im burning seem to be stalled on creating image checksum after it finished burning | 23:10 |
| newbie1 | maybe it's that the issue | 23:10 |
| pr0ph3t | sam-_-, I have more than one stdin and more than one stdout | 23:10 |
| sam-_- | hobbel, so it may not be a wifi issue at all | 23:10 |
| newbie1 | WhatToDo: enough space on disk? | 23:11 |
| sam-_- | pr0ph3t, in /dev ? | 23:11 |
| WhatToDo | newbie1: more than enough | 23:11 |
| sam-_- | pr0ph3t, i don't understand | 23:11 |
| newbie1 | i dont either | 23:11 |
| pr0ph3t | sam-_-, stdout can be /dev/pts/0, /dev/pts1 etc | 23:12 |
| newbie1 | maybe is running eyefinity.. | 23:12 |
| WhatToDo | newbie1: it seems like the disk is spinning periodically but theres no progress bar and it basically hasn't done anything in about 20-30 minutes | 23:13 |
| sam-_- | pr0ph3t, tell us what you want to do. i think this way should be easier | 23:13 |
| sam-_- | pr0ph3t, also: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pseudo_terminal | 23:13 |
| pr0ph3t | sam-_-, running on a remote device, so on said device stdout = /dev/pts/2, on server stdout= /dev/pts/0 | 23:13 |
| newbie1 | mmm...every time? even with cd? which program you use? | 23:13 |
| WhatToDo | not with cd | 23:14 |
| pr0ph3t | sam-_-, to redirect to the right stdout I have to specify /dev/pts/0 or 2 | 23:14 |
| WhatToDo | i right clicked the .iso and chose write to disk, i think ubuntu's native program is brasero but i didn't go through it | 23:14 |
| MM12 | Hello, I need some help connecting by my Huawei E5830, It is detected as a storage media but not as a modem, I have tried usb-modem package but no use still | 23:14 |
| pr0ph3t | sam-_-, so I guessed to redirect to the right stdin I would have to do the same | 23:14 |
| newbie1 | i could tell you to disable the checksum, in fact if the disk doesn't work you cant do anything either | 23:15 |
| pr0ph3t | sam-_-, specify if it is the one on my client or server, using ssh | 23:15 |
| newbie1 | maybe look for a program update | 23:15 |
| newbie1 | could be brasero | 23:15 |

| sam-_- | pr0ph3t, i don't think you normally have more than one stdin | 23:17 |
| newbie1 | it wont read even on windows? | 23:17 |
| WhatToDo | it will read on windows | 23:17 |

| newbie1 | junius_: you can even search for firefox plugin as well | 23:18 |
| WhatToDo | windows recognizes the media, but on ubuntu when i put a dvd-rw into my drive, the entire drive disappears from file manager | 23:18 |
| junius_ | where from newbiel | 23:18 |
| junius_ | i am a nood | 23:18 |

| arkanabar | etfb, using Lubuntu 10.10 | 23:41 |
| magicianlord | what does it mean when a battery is discharging at zero rate? | 23:42 |
| etfb | arkanabar, not familiar with that. What window manager does it use? | 23:42 |
| kinks | magicianlord: exactly what it says.. | 23:42 |
| etfb | arkanabar, in Gnome (ie standad Ubuntu) you can click the sound/volume icon on your system menu bar and choose Sound Preferences there. | 23:42 |
| arkanabar | etfb, it uses LXDE and so Openbox. | 23:42 |
| zaery | anyone a data recovery expert here? | 23:42 |

| sam-_- | zaery, no expert but ask anyway | 23:43 |
| arkanabar | eftb, lxpanel's volume control app does not have that function. | 23:43 |
| etfb | arkanabar, might be worth checking if there's a specific #lubuntu channel then. I found #ubuntu was quite, quite useless when I used to use Kubuntu, so I stayed in #kubuntu instead. | 23:43 |
| goviel | zaery: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DataRecovery | 23:44 |
| sam-_- | magicianlord, pretty sure. unless you explain to my how it can be done | 23:44 |
| magicianlord | if the wifi router knows where to send electrical impulses to your laptop, it must know exactly where the laptop is. and the laptoop should be able to figure it out likewise. | 23:44 |
| zaery | I've got an external drive that always thinks it's busy, and won't sync(it just hangs there, apparently forever) | 23:44 |
| arkanabar | eftb, I'm in there, but traffic is ... minimal. could you suggest any app to modify my audio capture settings? | 23:44 |
