newbie1doesnt make sense to me00:00
zaeryBoursier: yup, a .tar.gz is pretty much the same type of file as a .zip or a .rar00:01
mhaheguys major headache here. i deleted the main panel and ive looked online and from what ive read i just "alt+f2; gnome-panel". firstly i cant alt+f2 since my keyboard layout is abit messed up cause im using mac and its a new install. and when i do it in terminal it says its already active or open... so i tried gnome-panel restart and my panel reappears but when i close down the terminal it disapears again :S00:01
=== aziz_ is now known as MM12
MM12sam-_- no use :(00:01
kroq-gar78mhahe - have you tried resetting the panels?00:02
newbie1MM12: give a try to the web link procedure i sent before00:02
etfbWhat do you call the "add to panel" items.  If I want to google for a particular one, what search term will work?  Applets?00:02
kroq-gar78applets00:02
sam-_-Sephnroth, try adding: guest ok = yes00:02
vocxmhahe, probably next time you reboot the computer the panel will be there, so I wouldn't worry much about it00:03
kroq-gar78etfb: they're called applets, yes00:03
mhahekroq-gar78, ive done gnome-panel reset in terminal ... once i kill terminal the changes go back to the way it was (no panel)00:03
kisukeok, is there a standard way to fix an AWOL MBR?00:03
newbie1Awol means?00:03
zaerywould it be bad to use fsck -y?00:03
kisukeAbsent WithOut leave00:03
etfbkroq-gar78, then it's not my google-fu that's lacking, it's just that what I want doesn't exist...00:04
kroq-gar78did you look up online? there are tutorials saying somethnig about removing the directoreies00:04
Sephnrothsam-_-: ok will try that00:04
sam-_-MM12, sudo usb_modeswitch -v 12d1 -p 1401          does this say anything useful00:04
TLFhello00:04
kroq-gar78eftb: og, sorry if that seemed insulting :S00:04
etfbI have a VPN all set up.  How can I trigger it (connect and disconnect) from the terminal.00:04
kisukenewbie1: Absent WithOut Leave00:04
kroq-gar78*i mean oh not og00:05
newbie1ok00:05
etfbSomething like "vpn-connect MyWorkVPN [Enter]"00:05
TLFsome time ago, when I choosed to change a filename, it selected only the part before the dot (in GNOME) how can I reenable that behaviour?=00:05
newbie1it's like a not well closed filesystem?00:05
Sephnrothits not having it sam-_-00:05
ajcis55Anyone in here maybe able to help with 10.04 server issues? I have no network available, and I am unable to run basic commands such as ls, ps, and ifconfig.00:06
edbianajcis55: You can't run ls ?00:06
vocxTLF, that's weird, I didn't know you can disable that. If it can be changed, I guess it would be in gconf00:06
edbianajcis55: What does it say?00:06
sam-_-Sephnroth, i don't understand. you mean it didn't work?00:06
newbie1what network do you have00:06
ajcis55Server was working finr 24 hours ago. Then when I looked at it this morning it wasn't working.00:06
ajcis55bash: /bin/ls: no such file or directory.00:06
Sephnrothyeah it made no difference00:06
TLFvocx: yeah, I guess it too, but what to change? :D00:06
edbianajcis55: That's really bad.  can you cd there?00:06
ajcis55Yes. I have a cd in there.00:06
kroq-gar78mhoho - also, the alt-f2 things are just terminal commands, so if uyou can open terminal, just run those commands00:07
ajcis55It's a vm.00:07
TLFvocx: at least, do you know how that feature it's called to do a search on google?00:07
edbianajcis55:what?  no no, can you cd to that directory?00:07
ajcis55oh00:07
ajcis55yes00:07
MM12sam-_- http://pastebin.com/tbCGnhHc00:07
ajcis55I can cd to /bin and /sbin00:07
newbie1maybe the permissions went wrong?00:07
ajcis55but running the commands returns the same error.00:07
edbianajcis55: can you use the file browser to see if you do in fact have a /bin/ls ??00:07
ajcis55I do.00:07
ajcis55dir /bin/ls does return files.00:08
sam-_-Sephnroth, don't know. ask in #samba00:08
ajcis55err, the file.00:08
vocxajcis55, do this "echo $PATH"00:08
ajcis55/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin::/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/bin:/usr/games00:08
newbie1very odd00:09
ajcis55It's a vm and I can't get ssh access with the network down, so I have to manually type outputs.00:09
Boursierzaery, ok .. I extracted the package but didn't find the ".exe" file ..00:09
vocxajcis55, is that correct, double colon ::   ?00:09
edbianBoursier: You won't.   .exe files are executables for windows00:09
ajcis55No00:09
ajcis55Single00:09
=== KindThree is now known as KindOne
zaeryboursier: only windows uses .exe's, what did you find, a .deb?00:10
newbie1maybe he will use wine00:10

ibankai7Hi, can someone please help me, i just recently installed ubuntu 10.10 fornet book and just did a reboot for updates , when i reboot it directs me to the tty and asks me to log in, then i see an error saying memory corruption in low memory, please help!00:10
newbie1it's better00:10
sam-_-MM12, sudo usb_modeswitch -H -v 12d1 -p 1401 what does this one say?00:10
Boursierzaery, .. no .. nothing but .py00:10
edbianBoursier: it's python !  yay :)00:10
zaerythat's a python script, do you know if you have python installed?00:11
newbie1ibankai7: i will run a memtest to check the ram00:11
edbianBoursier: python is installed by default00:11
edbianibankai7: I second that opinion00:11
ibankai7how do you run a mem test?00:11
MM12sam-_- http://pastebin.com/067z1ZYM this00:11
zaeryedbian: then it's been a long time since i've installed a computer, lol, i forgot that :D00:12
Boursierzaery, do you mean about the python ide ?00:12
wei_quit00:12
jeffreyfeasiest way, boot from a livecd and you can run it from there00:12
Boursierzaery, I have to open this with that?00:12
ajcis55No more ideas?00:12
newbie1dont you have the boot option with it? if not download a small distribution with that built in and put on a usb key00:12
rautamiekkaThe SSH takes many seconds to ask for the password even on LAN: how to fix ?00:12
edbianibankai7: Boot the computer, press shift while it boots before you see any Ubuntu things.  You will get a menu, one of the items should be memtest+ it tests your ram00:12
jeffreyfibankai7: easiest way, boot from a livecd and you can run it from there00:12
edbianBoursier: Make the executable and just run them.  What program is this?00:13
zaeryboursier: i havent used python in forever, but you should just be able to double click it00:13
ibankai7thank you i will try that00:13
vocxBoursier, what are you trying to install. Downloading and installing packages from the internet like that is not recommended.00:13
edbianzaery: It's probably not marked executable right out of hte package00:13
newbie1rautamiekka: always done that issue? or only since a particular moment?00:13
sam-_-MM12, could you post a dmesg now?00:13
fizy[laptop]ever since i changed my password, when ever i log in, i have to put in my old pasword into a password keyring thing. anyone know how to fix this???00:13
zaeryedbian, true, i'll just shut up now :D00:13
rautamiekkanewbie1: Been that way for years.'00:13
newbie1have you searched for a likely bug or known solution?00:14
edbianzaery: I'm just trying to help!  Didn't mean to step on your toes :)00:14
newbie1seems very bad00:14
Boursierzaery, ok thanks for tha advice ... don't worry I'm in the cm ..but how can I make the executable00:14
victorhugo289what uo00:14
sam-_-MM12, dmesg |tail -n 20       20 lines should be enough00:14
victorhugo289what up00:14
victorhugo289kicking butt00:15
zaeryboursier, right click it, properties>permissions>checkbox at the bottom00:15
rautamiekkanewbie1: No solutions, only bugs if something.00:15
edbianBoursier: right click it, go to properties, go to permissions, check the executable box00:15
MM12sam-_- thanks for your patience, here http://pastebin.com/80VncLmM00:15
newbie1sorry, cant help you more00:15
zaeryedbian: it's cool, you're just supplying slightly more correct information than i am :)00:15
victorhugo289I can't help you more.00:15
edbianzaery: hahaha :)00:15
fizy[laptop]ever since i changed my password, when ever i log in, i have to put in my old pasword into a password keyring thing. anyone know how to fix this???00:16
victorhugo289@Fizy, what about.... "Passwords and Encryptions keys"00:16
fizy[laptop]tried that00:16
vocxzaery, edbian I suggest you you help him to install a package from the repositories instead of just telling him to run a random python script from the net. What is he installing anyway?00:16
edbianBoursier: What program is this?00:17
ajcis55vocx, edbian: are you guys out of ideas already?00:18
Boursieredbian:  its a work test from a friend ..00:18
victorhugo289@Fizy, I used to have some unused passwords in there, and I had to "Unlock my keyring" about 5 times in a row. I hated it.00:18
edbianajcis55: What is the issue again?00:18
newbie1MM12 maybe 40 lines is better00:18
vocxfizy[laptop], why do you have to put your password? Is this to turn on the wireless connection in a laptop. I didn't know you needed that.00:18
ajcis55bash: /bin/ls: no such file or directory.00:18
Boursieredbian: I did it , but it doesn't executes ..00:18
newbie1there is no reference to the modem there, only mass storage00:18
ajcis55Same for ifconfig, ps, and others.00:18
edbianBoursier: k, just no, someone could write a program that does very bad things with / to your computer.  If you trust the person that gave you this program than it is safe to run.00:18
edbianBoursier: Try to run it from the terminal00:19
MM12sam-_- http://pastebin.com/sh262Bh600:19
fizy[laptop]vocx that is one thing that happens. i put in myold and obnoxious password and the wifi connects00:19
newbie1ajcis55: did you saw anything strange in dmesg?00:19
vocxajcis55, I don't know about your problem specifically. I think you mentioned something about a virtual machine, but didn't read your question from the beginning. Perhaps, repost your question altogether.00:19
Boursieroh yes .. i'll try .. but don't worry .. he has my trust ..00:20
Boursieredbian: oh yes .. i'll try .. but don't worry .. he has my trust ..00:20
edbianBoursier: just making sure00:20
ajcis55Unfortunately, I don't have much experience with linux. I normally run things from webmin.00:20
ajcis55The problem is that as of this morning, a ubuntu 10.04 install suddenly started reporting that many of the common commands aren't working. Error is "no such file or directory"00:21
ajcis55Additionally, I have no network access, which I think is another symptom of the initial problem.00:21
newbie1WhatToDo: it's so slow?00:21
ajcis55ifconfig, ps, and ls are three that I KNOW don't work.00:21
sam-_-MM12, oh god. maybe we made a mistake.00:21
MM12sam-_- knowing the mistake is half the solution! :)00:21
ducktypesomeone know of some glitch thath prevents upstart job to start: "start on (started mysql)" ?00:22

Boursieredbian: thanks for caring, how can I run from the terminal?00:22
newbie1ok, i leave now btw, maybe we see each other tonight, or daily if i figure how to enter irc from office network :-)00:23
vocxajcis55, was that in a virtual machine? It's still not clear.00:23
wei_yaoquit00:23
newbie1it's possible to mark a nickname like a favorite in some ways?00:23
ajcis55Yes, this is a virtual machine.00:23
MM12sam-_- 3 devices, USB0,USB1,USB200:23
ajcis55It's been working fine for ~6 months.00:23
cooz202tried - sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg00:24
sam-_-MM12, then network manager should work with the modem now00:24
vocxajcis55, try running any command with its full path, /bin/ls00:24
ajcis55Tried.00:24
ajcis55Same error.00:24
ajcis55bash: /sbin/ifconfig: no such file or directory.00:24
ajcis55That's when trying /sbin/ifconfig00:25
WhatToDomkisofs returned an unknown error (code 255)00:25
sam-_-MM12, in fact delete the file: /etc/usb_modeswitch.d/12d1\:140100:25
cooz202get to new console with - sudo startx -- :1 vt10   >> logged is as root00:25
vocxajcis55, perhaps the partition got an error and the filesystem was mounted with no executable permissions. Perhaps reboot?00:25

ajcis55Tried rebooting.00:26
ajcis55As well as full suhtdown and power up.00:26

MrokiiHello. I've already asked in #winehq (without a helping answer), so: WINE doesn't give me any sounds after deinstalling OSS and re-installing ALSA/PulseAudio. Does anybody have a clue what could be the problem?00:30

WhatToDonewbie1: the .iso00:30
cooz202login problem - Server is already active for display 000:30

vocxBoursier, you need to understand what you are doing and not just attempting to run things mindlessly. You cannot even extract a tar.gz, you need more training. Ask your friends for instructions.00:30
WhatToDonewbie1: i read something online about maybe being a corrupt file but i doubt it00:31
newbie1i read the same thing online00:31
newbie1you have to doublecheck to be sure00:31
sam-_-MM12, sudo usb_modeswitch -v 0x12d1 -p 0x1446 -V 0x12d1 -P 0x1401 then post the output of this again. and then the output of dmesg | tail -n 2000:31
WhatToDonewbie1: how would i check it?00:31

EndymionMallornHi.  Don't know if this is the right room, but it's got the largest number of people in it on the server.  I'm not looking to use Linux as an everyday OS (I prefer WinXP), but I'm looking for a liveCD that I can allow someone to use so that they can't damage my PC in any way.  I'm looking for something that can easily support a wide range of graphics and sound cards, USB, and has native support for .exe files and Windo00:35
newbie1figure out that i dont even have ubuntu, i am using mandriva00:35
newbie1and i am unhappy with it, so pls dont ban me00:35
Boursiervocx: I know how to extrac it, i just don't know how to install it .. what would you recommend? ..00:35
Mrokiinewbie1: I am not sure. I didn't find any prefs for Hardware-selection. All I have is the Multimedia-prefs where I can chose OSS, ALSA, etc.00:35
zaeryEndymionMallorn, for native .exe support, your only option is windows00:35
vocxwill_, yes. Fancy effects and emulation of other operating systems are not good. Turn compiz off.00:35
will_vocx: thanks, okay :)00:35
KM0201newbie1: if you're using mandriva, why don't you seek out mandriva assistance?00:36
EndymionMallornzaery: Problem is, they don't make liveCDs for windows - at least, not above 98SE.00:36
newbie1maybe is silly question, why did you got rid of OSS? never touch what is working00:36
sam-_-MM12, hmm. should just work now. i guess it's a network manager problem00:36
WhatToDoi think its my computer at this point, which is really aggravating because im trying to burn a windows iso to install it and it wont read my dvds00:36
zaeryEndymionMallorn: then your request doesn't work. the best you can do is make another user for them in windows00:36
newbie1KM0201: oh i am doing...very much, but i have found many idiots who can only tell you read the damn manual00:37
spaghettifiercan anyone help me?00:37
MM12sam-_- is there an alternative to network manager?00:37
KM0201newbie1: that still makes no sense why you're here... ubuntu and mandriva are totally different.00:37

WhatToDomaybe k3b has to autosim to verify that the iso can be burned?00:37

doleybfructose: some laptops have an FN button combo to turn off touchpad..00:38
Mrokiinewbie1: Because OSS *wasn't* working (completely). There was one game in Wine that didn't play sound (the others I have did). And I wanted to see if the problem would be solved by switching back to the standard soundsystem.00:38
newbie1i dont know - WhatToDo - maybe your file system is a little bad? try a fsck, dont ask me for the options btw00:38

zaeryEndymionMallorn, .exe's *might* work in wine(http://www.winehq.org/), and the sofrware you're looking for might have a linux version or an alternative, if you absolutely need your friends to run specific programs with no alternatives, that don't work in wine, then your only option is windows, and don't start insulting linux, because macs have the same problem with .exe's00:48

ubottuhoneypot: Screen is a window manager for terminal sessions, also useful over SSH. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Screen00:51
vocxspaghettifier, the proper way is not to ask if someone can help you, but to repeat your complete and detailed question every 5 minutes or so,00:51
spaghettifier in. I used to have auto login enabled but now it just goes to the gdm screen. When I type my password, the screen turns black for a second then returns to the login window. When I go into tty1 and restart gdm, it then tells me Ubuntu is running in low graphics mode and I end up in an endless loop. Anyone know what could be wrong?00:51

zaeryfsck gave me a bad magic number in my superblock, and e2fsck -b 8193 did the same, is this drive recoverable?00:52

vocxzaery, you did run fsck as sudo?00:53

baddyi have empathy but it wont open conversations has it a bug or something?00:54
vocxspaghettifier, just magically your login screen became messed up. What about updates. I remember some updates in AppArmor recently.00:54
sam-_-MM12, hmm.  post cat /var/log/daemon.log | grep NetworkManager to pastebin.com maybe this will show sth. useful.00:55

Per5eLhello why when i make full screen on any video on the net (lets take for example youtube) the screen is freezing and doesn't show the video in full screen?00:59
vocxibankai7, may be your computer is not supported. Though luck. You could try searching for your exact model to see if anyone has already reported the issue.00:59
ibankai7i have burned the ubuntu 10.10 to a cd so i could install it01:00
sam-_-Per5eL, bc. flashplayer is the worst software ever made...01:00
vocxPer5eL, it's a problem with flash. Flash is not open source, so for some people it works and for others it doesn't. It's Adobe's fault perhaps.01:01

vocxibankai7, maybe your computer is not supported. There is not much to do in this case. Search on the Internet for your exact model to see if anyone has already the same issue.01:03

Per5eLThe program 'glxinfo' is currently not installed.  You can install it by typing: sudo apt-get install mesa-utils01:07
sam-_-KM0201, does flashplayer crash for you in fullscreen?01:07
vocxawesome_guest, Most packages are pulled from debian, so if you really can tell it's out of date, you should contact the debian maintainer of said package. It's possible a new package is already in unstable, and it's just waiting to be included in a stable repository.01:07

vocxPer5eL, I believe I've had that problem before too. I just ignore it. As I said, for some people flash works okay, for others not so okay.01:10

sam-_-!rar |felon01:37
ubottufelon: rar is a non-free archive format created by Rarsoft. For instructions on accessing .rar files through the Archive Manager view https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FileCompression. There is a free (as in speech) unrar utility as well, see !info unrar-free01:37

newbie1lithionlx: you tried that "solution" i reported?01:40
sam-_-markturnip, easiest way is network manager01:40
shcherbakmarkturnip: wpa-supplicant, wicd-text - none tried with success01:41
nit-witWhatToDo, anything done before ahnd to cause this that you can think of01:41
newbie1WhatToDo: even starting with safe mode options?01:41
WhatToDonit-wit: nope, i noticed none of my programs would start so i shut down ubuntu and on start up i got some weird screen01:41
nit-witWhatToDo, is it a wubi install?01:41
zaery_anyone know what to do if i try to fsck a drive, and it tells me that it's got a bad magic number for the superblock?01:41

newbie1that01:42
nit-witLoganJRuff, not much in spite of claiming open source status.01:42
vocxjimcooncat, that is because gnome-terminal uses the standard gnome bindings. But other than F1, what else doesn't work? You can use a pure terminal emulator like xterm. That is, inside gnome-terminal run "xterm", and then within it alsamizer.01:42
jimcooncatsailinginrio, sorry, but I'll keep trying, have a nice night01:42

leomast247yes the HD is quite old02:17
leomast247wats dmesg02:17
WhatToDonit-wit: a couple of years i think..nothing rediculous02:17
newbie1the system message log02:17
shcherbakleomast247: one of system logs02:17
nit-witWhatToDo, alright02:17
leomast247im kinda new so what kind of power setting should i use and how do i get to the dmesg02:18
shcherbakleomast247: dmesg is command, all logs are placed in /var/log use tail or less.02:19
WhatToDonit-wit: so i tried to boot from thd hd for kicks and all i get is a flashing cursor with no text and its not booting anything...02:20
shcherbakleomast247: Power setting -- make sure your pc do not suspend or hibernate02:20
j_ayen_greenrunning 10.4 in vbox. I have a problem in my fstab file...how do I 'get around' it so I can get in and edit the file?02:20
leomast247ok i typed in dmesg02:20
WhatToDonit-wit: i think i screwed with the partitions and erased the boot files or moved them or idk what02:21
timWhen I try to install new software I get "waiting for apt-get to exit" and nothing happens.  Suggestions?02:21
vocxj_ayen_green, you don't get around it, you obtain root privileges and then edit it, like "gksudo gedit /etc/fstab"02:22
leomast247now what when i typed in dmesg02:22
WhatToDobut i want to format and do a clean install and i cant because it freezes on the first page of installation when i click next after selecting to update while installing02:22
j_ayen_greenvocx: editing it would presume that ubuntu boots to the point of logging in02:22
nit-witWhatToDo, so it sounds like something happened how do you think I can help?02:23
vocxj_ayen_green, you did not mention that, did you?02:23
j_ayen_greenwell, I asked how to get around it so I -can- get it an edit it02:23
WhatToDonit-wit:  well mainly im not sure lol at this point i want top reinstall but it freezes and its not the disk i dont think02:23
j_ayen_greenmaybe I should have worded it as 'get beyond it'02:24
abcd99hey, ubuntu keeps closing my fullscreen mode - when im watching some flash movie on youtube etc. howto stop that? im using minefield, and some flash player (i think its adobes 64bit linux) - its because of that? or?02:24
nit-witWhatToDo, you could use the alternative disc, but your the one there. How exsperienced are you at this?02:24
shcherbakleomast247: check in output for any issues, errors. In menu is log viewer too, so you can more info. Does sound works now?02:24
vocxj_ayen_green, maybe you should mention that ubuntu does not boot?02:25
j_ayen_greenok02:25
WhatToDonit-wit: relatively, in that ive installed a few times02:25
j_ayen_greenubuntu 10.4 does not finish the boot process because i have a problem in my fstab file... it stops along the way.. it's running in vbox... how can I get through to logging in so I can edit the fstab file02:25
nit-witWhatToDo, if the install is not working you might try rebooting and running a memerory check at that first window.02:26
WhatToDonit-wit:  i just googled my issue and it seems relatively common for a freeze at this screen02:26
tony__is this the right place ask a conky script question?02:27
nit-witWhatToDo, never have freezes in mine not sure what your doing or where from.02:27
milamberJordan_U: not sure if you googled it or have experience w/ it, but that liveusb link you gave me worked like a champ. thnx. (only problem was booting up an old winbox)02:27
j_ayen_greenis there, for example, a function key I can press to get a 'safe boot'  that ignores mount requests?02:27
Jordan_Umilamber: You're welcome.02:28
WhatToDonit-wit: im trying to install 10.10 and its the first screen after you click install that says Preparing to install Ubuntu and you choose whether to install updates while installing. I click forward and the cursor goes in circles and doesnt advance02:28
j4sonbeer:3002:28
nit-witWhat for how long02:29
nit-witWhatToDo, for how long02:29
vocxj_ayen_green, the way you can do it, is mounting a Ubuntu CD, and using it as a live CD in the booting process.02:29
WhatToDonit-wit: forever, it wont advance sao i cant install02:29
nit-witWhatToDo, you said 10 min before s this accurate02:29
nit-wit*is02:29
nit-witWhatToDo, have hyou used this cd to install with before?02:30
nit-wit*you02:30
WhatToDonit-wit: yes i left it for 10 minutes and it didnt move and i turned the computer off because the first time i installed from this disk it didnt hang at all02:30
sailinginriohowdy i am trying to install u-10.10 but my screen goes black everytime and the cd keeps churning...thanks to newbie1 i went to f1 and found out there is a special parameter for this type of problems "vga=771" where do i input this info in order for the cd to make the adjustments? thank you.02:30
WhatToDonit-wit: yeah02:30
nit-witWhatToDo, so is the actual install fryed, can you remove it?02:31
KM0201sailinginrio: does it have an ATI graphics device?02:31
SirFunkhey, for some reason Ctrl+Shift+V stops working in my gnome-terminal. I can re-set it, but after a few minutes it stops working again.. any idea why?02:31
j_ayen_greenvocx: how does that work? I mean, I understand how the cd as a boot device works, but I'm thinking unless I get the vbox vm to the point of being booted, there's no file 'there' to edit02:31
WhatToDonit-wit: remove whay?02:31
WhatToDowhat?*02:31
sailinginrio? I do not know KM020102:31
nit-witWhatToDo, you had a Ubuntu install that stopped booting correct?02:31
WhatToDonit-wit: right02:31
sailinginrioit is a pretty new notebook vaio02:31
nit-witWhatToDo, I am wondering if it has made a problem with writing a new install to the HD.02:32
kisukeok quick question: "es2fsck: unable to set superblock flags on /dev/sda1" is that recoverable or just nuke and reload OS?02:32
tony__the line in question works fine when not used in a conky script02:32

j_ayen_greenvocx: I have a backup of the virtual hard disk file...perhaps I can get vbox to load it as the primary02:43
vocxMaxeetoh, you need a wireless card in your desktop, for example one that fits in a PCI slot.02:43
shcherbakMaxeetoh: Tell me what type of router is it, brand ,model02:43
Maxeetohmm let me see02:43

KM0201or try burning the 64bit ISO again, slowly.02:51
sailinginriohow do i burn it slowly?02:51
shcherbakMaxeetoh: not really, and think you intend to do is quite risky. make sure to double check how tos.02:52
Gneayou set the burning speed to a slow speed, like 8x or 4x02:52
KM0201sailinginrio: depending on the app you use to burn ISO's, there should be a place to set the speed02:52
m1chael10.0.4 i think02:52
sailinginrioi am using infrarecordder and it said it was doing 2x02:52
sailinginrio....02:52
j_ayen_greenvocx: it occurred to me after you suggested that, that the changes I made will not be in the hard disk file, but in state. So I'm going to clone the hard disk file so that I can boot from it without state, and mount the original as an additional disk02:52
sailinginriobut i will try again02:52

ryanthelionThe server is the one that isn't work - it's the one connected via the wired connection.03:15
jusexconryan : Unless you have different operating systems on it, and it will connect fine03:15
jusexconryan : What is the brand and model number of your wireless card?03:16
Danny78ryanthelion:  sounds like the router03:16

elkngcrooks3o6: thanks03:16
ryanthelionDanny78: I'll look into that. It's never happend before, these programs worked fine.03:16
ryanthelionThe only thing I've done since then was update some packages.03:16
jusexconryan : So, it works on your operating system(s) on the same computer that is not ubuntu03:17
jusexconryan : But it doesn't work on ubuntu?03:17
jusexconryan : Or do you have only ubuntu on your computer03:17
Danny78ryanthelion:  I finally changed my PPPoE from my AT&T modem to a router and it fixed several weird problems.03:17
jusexconryan : It could be that a package did something03:17
mattmattvocx: I see. Unfortunately I can't seem to find the menu.lst file anymore. Do you know where grub takes its configuration from these days?03:17
Danny78theholder:  is that onboard?03:18

theholderyes03:18
ryanthelionDanny78: I have another computer connected to the same router, that works fine, though, that's the tough part. Is there a way to diagnose a specific connection03:18

ryanthelionjusexcon: I have the same ubuntu version on two computers, that's it. It works fine on one of these computers03:18
jusexconryan : What is the name and model number of the wireless card03:19
jusexconryan : It could be that it stopped working03:19
Danny78ryanthelon:  you mean a bad port?  switch the cables...  there's also software (used to work telecom) that can traverse the cable and diagnose any signal loss03:19
jusexconryan : Because of something you installed or so03:19
vocxmattmatt, that depends, do you use grub 1 or grub 2? The standard is to install grub 2 now, but I still use grub 1 since I installed Ubuntu several releases ago.03:19
ryanthelionjusexcon: It's not the wireless card - the wireless connection works fine, it's the wired one that's weird. I think a package is interfering somewhere, so I wish I could get a more verbose diagnostic of 'when/why' the connection fails.03:20
EnigmaticCoderHow do I check if logrotate is started?03:20

DJCharliequick question. i've just set up 2 identical servers for a shoutcast station. what would be the easiest way to set them up for automatic failover (non apache)?03:58
ShoggothI've tried google but they all refer to when a change has been made... I haven't changed anything03:58
jeeves__has anyone here come accross a ping issue where it resolves the DNS name, but dosn't get replies?  I know the network is good (I'm on it on IRC), but I can't get the server to see the network03:58
Shoggothbeen working fine for nearly a month03:58
edbianjeeves__: What are you pinging?  A remote website or something across the Internet?03:59
kozikmeshezabeel_ what should i change in there?03:59
Meshezabeel_kozik: just double checking something on the new format before I give it to you03:59
kozikok03:59
jeeves__edbian, I can ping internal names/IPs, but when I try external names/IPs, I can resolve the IP address, but no ping reply04:00
Shoggothsacarlson: does that error message mean anything to you?04:00
sacarlsonShoggoth: ww I think is just a warning04:00
Shoggothindeed04:00
edbianjeeves__: Many firewalls (and middleboxes in general) block ping (ICMP) to protect against ping floods and such.04:00
edbianjeeves__: It bothers many people (including me)04:00
T3CHKOMMIEi have a server question but no one over at ubuntuer-server is alive..... can anyone help me?04:01
Shoggothsacarlson: indeed, however the fact that it's the last line in the log suggestions something is amiss04:01
jeeves__edbian, this is a brand new install of 10.04.  Is there a default firewall installed?  (I can ping from my laptop (also running 10.04) so I know it's not the network04:01
edbianjeeves__: It's possible that A your networks firewall is blocking the ping or that some firewall on the internet is blocking them.  Hard to tell which without doing a traceroute :)04:01
edbianjeeves__: There is a firewall built into the kernel.  It's called iptables.  By default it allows all traffic through.  You can see what rules are set on it by issuing sudo iptables -L04:01
jeeves__edbian, lol, I can't even do an apt install since I can't get out to the net04:02
Meshezabeel_kozik: I assume it is just "Option "TouchpadOff" "1"" but want to double check.04:02
edbianjeeves__: (that's a capitol L)04:02
edbianjeeves__: You're on IRC on the machine?  You're on the internet.04:02
=== |_ocke2 is now known as |_ocke
jeeves__edbian, yep.  that's why I know the connection is good, and I'm connecting to the box using out domain name.04:02
edbianjeeves__: You're connecting to what box?  Are there two computers here?04:03
jeeves__edbian, hence why I'm here asking04:03
jeeves__edbian, yes, this is a headless server that's sitting in the basement.  I'm on a laptop on the same internal network04:03
sacarlsonShoggoth: it's (EE) is what you would see if it dies WW (WW) warning, (EE) error04:03
Shoggothsacarlson: yes I know except X fails to run and there are no (EE) entries in the log04:04
edbianjeeves__: What machine are you connected to IRC with?  The laptop or the server?04:04
kozikmeshezabeel_ do i need quotes around option, too?04:04
jeeves__edbian, the laptop04:04
Shoggothsacarlson: btw. I pasted two lines there.... the last line is actually ddxSigGiveUp: Closing log04:04
edbianjeeves__: Can the laptop ping addresses the the server cannot?04:04
Meshezabeel_kozik: remove the first and last quote04:04
sacarlsonShoggoth: then maybe it came up ok but is setup to display on a device you are not looking at?04:04
Shoggothsacarlson: any idea of what that is referring to?04:04
edbianjeeves__: Both machines have the same gateway right?04:04
jeeves__edbian, correct.  the ONLY box in the house that can't ping out is the server04:05
Shoggothsacarlson: nope... the X server isn't running04:05
edbianjeeves__: Ah-Ha!  is iptables empty?04:05
kozikso i dont need one around 1 either?04:05
Shoggothsacarlson: the odd thing is that if I log into a console session and run service gdm start it works perfectly04:05
jeeves__edbian, yes, IPtables is empty, and the server is getting it's IPs via DHCP (same as every other system in the house (since they're all statically assigned))04:05
Shoggothsacarlson: also there's only one vidcard - it's a laptop04:06
Meshezabeel_kozik: look at the option under #6 here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SynapticsTouchpad/Hardy04:06
kozikalso, it says i cant edit the file as im not root. do i need to change the sudo password so i can actually be root for this?04:06
edbianjeeves__: You just contradicted youself?  Did the server get it's IP via DHCP or statically (for the record I don't think it makes a difference as long as it is a valid address)04:06
Meshezabeel_kozik: what editor do you use?04:06
chrisA1'lo all.04:06
jeeves__edbian, the DHCP server hands out IPs statically assigned to the NICs MAC04:07
kozikgedit04:07
kozikwhatever the default is?04:07
chrisA1Having gotten wifi working, I'm trying to get it to automatically do so.04:07
Meshezabeel_kozik: in terminal try: gksudo gedit filename04:07
chrisA1I've discovered /etc/network/interfaces, and wlan0 appears on its own, now.04:08
edbianjeeves__: oh i see.  Thanks for the clarification.  I have seen something like this once before.  When i was in college we had a lab and the Ubuntu server refused to ping out.  But it said something about Ping: Operation Not Permitted" and it didn't matter if I was root or not.  Is that problem similar to yours?04:08
Shoggothsacarlson: is it possible some kind of race condition with the kernel modeset ?04:08
chrisA1But I'm not sure how to get it to associate with our router on reboot, and run 'dhcpcd wlan0'.04:08
jeeves__edbian, nope.  the command runs, but times out waiting for the reply04:08
sacarlsonShoggoth: I had something like this happen years ago in debian,  I don't remember how I fixed it,  I think I ended up with a work around script to start and later upgraded04:08
chrisA1Does this call for a script? If so, what would it look like, and how do I set it up to run on startup?04:08
Shoggothsacarlson: it happened once before a few months back... but I'd only just installed the OS ... so I just re-installed04:09
edbianjeeves__: traceroute and see how far the packets get.04:09
Shoggothsacarlson: not really in a position to do that atm04:09
jeeves__edbian, lol, can't, can't install it!04:09
sacarlsonShoggoth: maybe sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg ?04:09
Shoggothsacarlson: worth a shot04:10
edbianjeeves__: traceroute6 is installed by default.  Is this a fresh install?  Did this problem always exist as long as Ubuntu has been installed?04:10
Shoggothsacarlson: shall try... thanks04:10
jeeves__edbian, fresh install after a failed forced upgrade from 8.0404:10
JustMozzyhi guys. I am really annoyed by this problem. after I upgraded to 10.10, whenever I touch my touchpad, ubuntu simply closes everything and logs me out.... can anyone help me? at lest point me in a direction, I have no idea what is going on :s04:11
kozikmeshezabeel_ quotes around the 1? yes or no04:11
SamisonHi  I lost my NetworkManager panel applet when I rebooted after installing pppoeconf, and I can't even find an applet package in Synaptic.  Anyone know how I can resote it?04:11
edbianjeeves__: and traceroute6 ?04:11
edbianSamison: It's part of the indicator applet04:11
USSJoinI had an ubuntu-server install (designed to be headless) that I found I needed X etc. on for wine. I installed all that (apt-get install ubuntu-desktop), and I now notice that I can't get it to recognize my sound cards (either onboard ALC888 or usb audio). /proc/asound shows both cards, but pulseaudio (to which I have no particular allegiance, it's just the default) just shows a dummy. Thoughts?04:11
JustMozzySamison, it should be in the notification area04:11
jeeves__edbian, unknowen hosr04:12
SamisonYes   but it's not04:12
JustMozzySamison, I had the same problem. it would not show up in the indicator applet (still have that problem) but showing up in the notification area applet04:12
edbianjeeves__: ping an address.  Here is google.com: 74.125.95.10604:12
SamisonIf I add Notification area to my panel nothing happens04:12
edbianjeeves__: Although it is not good that traceroute6 cannot resolve domain names.  (BTW I ment to say traceroute google.com's address, not ping it)04:12
kozikalso im missing almost all of those options i see on the site you sent me to.... is this an issue04:13
jeeves__edbian, the messed up part is that I can ping google.ca (and it resolves the IP, but I don't get replies)04:13
Meshezabeel_kozik: just like on the link I gave you04:13
edbianjeeves__: What do you mean you can ping google.ca but you get no replies?  I don't count that as pinging...04:13
jeeves__edbian, even with just the IP, it still says "unknowen host"04:13
JustMozzySamison, humm... then I am out of ideas. but I remember when I googled that problem that there were many similar problems. including in the /etc/network/interfaces (is that the file?) to set the eth0 wlan0 or whatever interface it is to auto04:13
JustMozzynot sure if I am talking bs here, correct me if I am wrong. am still a noob04:14
SamisonOK   There is just a brief flash in my panel when I try and add Notification Area04:14
EnigmaticCoderDoes anyone who uses MythTV know if it's possible to install MythTV on top of ubuntu without it "standing alone?"04:15

JustMozzyhummm...04:15
kozikOption "Touchpad" "Off"  correct?04:15
edbianjeeves__: I'm getting confused.  Can you sudo traceroute www.google.com    ?04:15
JustMozzykozik, where?04:16
kozikxorg.conf04:16
jeeves__edbian, one sec, pastebin is taking forever04:16
edbianSamison: sudo apt-get install nm-applet04:16
edbianjeeves__: sure04:16
jeeves__edbian, http://pastebin.com/Bx0r8Drb04:16
edbianSamison: Then re add those things to the panel, or restart04:16

exxtremeI'm using lucid. How do i upgrade to maverick from menu?04:56
xanguaor use laton american keyboard distribution04:56
Shoggothsacarlson: yeah... I do... but I tried disabling that too and using straight xorg04:56
xanguaexxtreme: change update setting in Software Origins and set it to update to normal versions04:56
xanguaby default is set to upgrade efrom lts to lts04:56
skutr3Meshezabeel_: no but i went to info and it said the disk had a bad sector....04:56
Shoggothsacarlson: the thing is that the X server works fine when manually invoked standalone or by gdm... it just bombs out when gdm starts at boot04:56
ack1how do I get rid of keyring?04:57
Shoggothsacarlson: really makes no sense04:57
sacarlsonShoggoth: ok so it's not nvidia or at least not the propriatary part04:57
AbhiJithow can i backup basket and sticky notes?04:58
AbhiJit:(04:58
sacarlsonShoggoth: so when it does work what drivers does it end up using for video and ??04:58
Meshezabeel_skutr3: you'll probably have to go to windows and get that fixed04:58
AbhiJitis there any basket channel? or i ask in kde channel only?04:58
Meshezabeel_skutr3: anyhow, when you get that done, I'll give you some info that you can use for later:04:59
sacarlsonShoggoth: oh I have something on my kernel at boot that has a nvidea entry,  I also have nvidia card04:59
genuinewgaHi, I clean installed Ubuntu Server 10.10 w/ AMP group and then installed sabnzbdplus from the jcfp ppa repo. I just have a command line no GUI though. I can use lynx/w3c to get into localhost:port but externally i can't reach IP:port. So I allowed the sabnzbd port and updated the firewall... with no change :/ ... One more thing is I do launch sabnzbdplus in screen to make sure its running04:59
Shoggothsacarlson: I've tried both the proprietary nvidia drivers and the nouveau drivers...both of them work with the manual start of gdm04:59
skutr3Meshezabeel_:  do you have any idea how to fix it?04:59
ayakawho know use docbook to output pdf?04:59
Shoggothsacarlson: keep in mind this is a config that's been stable for weeks... and it's spontaneously broken05:00
Meshezabeel_skutr3: can't remember how to do a scan/fix for bad sectors in windows05:00
sacarlsonShoggoth: ok,  but let me look at my kernel entry and see if you have this05:00
skutr3ok one sec05:00
Rave1skutr3,  chkdisk05:00
sacarlsonShoggoth: ya, I'm not sure how that is posible05:00
SamisonAh ha   I found the Notification Area!  It is invisible because it is empty I think, so the Notification Area is there but I have no NetworkManager applet in it.  Notification Area 2.30.2.  So Im trying to figure out how to get that applet back.  Right now I use pppoeconf through the terminal for a modem connection, and WICD to connect to a router.  I have no nm-applet package, and apt-get fails to retrieve one.05:00
Meshezabeel_skutr3: you will also need to keep an eye on it as bad sectors often lead to other bad sectors, might need to get a new hard drive at some point05:01

koepithank you06:26
soreaukoepi: fglrx no longer supports your card but the default driver in ubuntu is quite capable now. OOTB = out of the box06:26
WhatToDobonjoyee: oh ok06:26
koepiit is working for sure, but not with a 10th of the same performance06:27
nit-witsoreau, yeah I'm using the generic with a ati06:27
WhatToDogod this computer06:27
soreaukoepi: Upgrade to the very latest ubuntu and kernel you can to get the best performance06:27
soreaunit-wit: It's not generic. It's Radeon.06:28
nit-witsoreau, I have a dell with a old radeon, but I just use it for basic use06:28
koepiwhen I use 9.10 I have about 300 fps vial glxgears and at 10.04 I have about 5006:29
koepiI will check the launchpad06:29
koepibut thanks anyways06:29
soreaunit-wit: The 9550-x1900 series cards will run at top performance starting in 11.04 since the gallium driver is now default (meaning opengl2.1 greatness, OSS style)06:30
bonjoyeekoepi: using compiz?  tried disabling kms?06:31
nit-witsoreau, I had heard that i will have to look at my card on the dell06:31
koepiI guess there is another way, though I met some who had the same problem with no results06:31
potipheraIf anyone knows about GRUB, encrypted filesystems, and "no init found" errors, could they please read my forum thread and tell me if there's any way to get my system to boot that I haven't tried already?  http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=163120306:32
soreaunit-wit: The HDxxxx series will likely be running very well in future versions of ubuntu with the open radeon driver too06:32

Champno its an HP06:45
koepiyea06:45

nit-witHypoglybetic, you will need grub or lilo, whats happening06:46
nit-witChamp, hold on06:46
Champok06:46
soreaukoepi: See 'dpkg -l|grep fglrx' and remove all packages and if you used the installer from ati, look for an uninstall script in /usr/share/ati/ . Then reinstall libgl1-mesa-glx and -dri then reboot06:46
koepithank you06:47
vinokbonjoyee, what do you mean by the output? are you referring to sensors-applet (GUI) in my panel? if yes, in the preferences part it shows 4 categories. libsensors, acpi, hddtemp, nvidia. thats all in 10.4 it also shows fan category06:47
HypoglybeticNit-wit I am just running into one small bug after another.  The last installation gave me a GRUB rescue error and I couldn't do anything.  So if Grub wasn't required I wasn't going to go with it.  I'm a super newbie.06:47

Idol_MindWhatToDo, You might have some luck (if it is SATA) to change the IDE mode from IDE to AHCI (or reverse) and try again. I had a heck of a time getting 10.04/10.10 to install on my HP dv5500 because of that07:17
t-floevening all.. I am attempting to burn a 1.2gb AVI to a DVD with brasero. When it is set to data DVD, it works fine. When it is set to video, it says that there isn't enough free space on the disc. Can somebody explain?07:17
quintopiai agree with EvilSushi07:17

InumediaI'm not a fan of empathy, although it's not terrible07:18
nit-witChamp, so you ran the script how did you get to a Ubuntu desktop07:18
Idol_MindWhatToDo, It did for me.. took a couple tries... but go into BIOS and there should be an option for RAID mode or IDE mode that will be either IDE, RAID, or AHCI.. trying swapping to/from AHCI mode07:18
t-flosoreau: devede? Will the iso it makes be playable in a DVD player? That's why I don't want a data disc.07:18
InumediaI didn't care much for pidgin either07:18

kozikok, can i ask if ive edited xorg.conf and ive installed synaptics and pointing devices and i dont see an option in the bios...... is there another perminant (non hammer way) to kill the touchpad07:21
soreaut-flo: It takes some time to encode but after you get the hang of it, the actual burning becomes the easy part07:21
nit-witChamp, here is a link to look at it is only two commands with a sudo fdisk- l first to identify the ubuntu. https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Grub2#Reinstalling%20GRUB%20207:21
koziklike for good07:21
WhatToDoIdol_Mind: there is an sd slot, but nothing in it. nothing about drive order either07:21
Guest40136what sud i do for this error....(There seems to be a programming error in aptdaemon, the software that allows you to install/remove software and to perform other package management related tasks. Please report this error at http://launchpad.net/aptdaemon/+filebug and retry.)07:21
celestialhi everyone this might be a newbie question and has probally been asked before but is there really any other differences in linux distros other than package management and packages included?07:21
Idol_MindWhatToDo, k, lemme find mine and look at BIOS, yours is a laptop, right?07:21
kozikcelestial, yeah07:22
soreaut-flo: and fyi: to open a dvd iso image file, just use totem /path/to/dvd.iso07:22

Katsumi32hi i have question to burn ubuntu iso to usb i can use unebotin or lili etc but what software i can use to burn windows iso to usb any advice ?07:23
Idol_MindWhatToDo, Have you looked to see if the BIOS version is current?07:23
kozikcelestial, organization. some distros stick things in different folders, and use different commands (note, especially for installing) such as in ubuntu its sudo apt-get07:24
nit-witChamp, ask any questions if needed07:24
lazarus_morning all07:24
WhatToDoIdol_Mind: I havent really done anything with the bios07:24
Champnit-wit, ok thanks :)07:24
AbhiJitKatsumi32, ##windows07:24
koziki think ubuntu is the easiest one to use07:24
nit-witChamp, thats the way we roll07:24
Champheh07:24
Katsumi32AbhiJit, hahahhaha they dont know i asked there many times :)07:24
Idol_MindWhatToDo, Well, give that a shot... see if you can download and upgrade the BIOS firmware07:24
shawn146_help plz07:24
WhatToDoIdol_Mind: alright07:25
Idol_MindWhatToDo, After that, you should be able to change AHCI mode and ACPI07:25
bonjoyeevinok: as the last bet..you could add the module that worked in 10.04..to /etc/modules in 10.10..not sure it will work though!07:25

shawn146_how do i get in?07:25
celestialthanks for the info i was just curious it seem though theres minor differences everything else is virtually the same between distros is that right to expevt?07:25
WhatToDoKatsumi32: i feel you, ##windows isnt very helpful ever07:25
Champnit-wit, but I have no windows at all on my computer, just ubuntu so does it still apply to me?07:25
AbhiJitWhatToDo, start using linux! :p07:26

killowndo anyone here knows a way to save nvidia-settings?07:26
vinokbonjoyee, yeah i think thats a good idea. i'll try that one a bit later and let u know.07:26
nit-witChamp, there is a chance that the grub just didn't load into the mbr master boot record correctly07:26
WhatToDoAbhiJit: I have ubuntu on my laptop...or at least im trying to get it back on my laptop07:26
AbhiJitKatsumi32, ?07:26
Idol_MindWhatToDo, Hey, in BIOS is there a screen called IDE Configuration?07:26
AbhiJit1980?07:26
killown.nvidia-settings-rc is not working for me07:26
AbhiJitmark shuttelworth born then?07:26
Champnit-wit, oh ok, still readin through :)07:26
kozikmore or less. some distros are kde centric, (which is more windows like) and some are more gnome friendly (which is more like classic mac)07:26
WhatToDoIdol_Mind: Nope07:27
WhatToDoCan I install DSL or just run it from a live CD?07:27
nit-witChamp just the first couple of lines in the section marked 12 reinstalling grub207:27
Katsumi32AbhiJit, i know #ubuntu is for ubuntu only and i use ubuntu but need to burn windows to usb and i cant find the roght software to do that so thats why i asked here i tried on #windows but they dont really know07:28
asadrHow do I set a umask for SSH so that it works for non-interactive connections as well07:28
AbhiJitKatsumi32, its okkkk07:28
Idol_MindHmm, your BIOS must be pretty old... on mine I've got "Configure SATA As (Standard IDE, AHCI, or RAID), ALPE and ASP, IDE Detect Time Out (Sec)" options07:28
WhatToDoIdol_Mind: yeah i have nothing like that07:28
kozikif i go into xorg.conf and i change it to touchpad catchall "off" why does it kill the keyboard and mouse, too?07:29
celestialone last question kozik i know every linux distro uses the same kernel and many drivers come included in it is that another difference as well that distros add extra drivers that arnt included in the kernel which makes them able to support more iff you get what im asking07:29
Idol_MindWhatToDo, Aight, give it a shot...07:29
piosalanIf I did a "mkfs -t fat /dev/sda" on my hard drive is there any hope of retrieving any data from it?07:30
Idol_Mindcan someone point me in the right direction in migrating my install to a SMALLER drive? 640GB to 80GB SSD07:30
kozikcelestial: not sure i understand07:30
splazoKatsumi32: why burn the iso? Just format the usb with ntfs, set active and extract the files from the iso. It'll boot after that. I've done it lots.07:30
kozikare you asking which one has better support?07:30
WhatToDoIdol_Mind: noob question: how do i update the BIOS07:31
shawn146_good night damnit -_-07:31
koepisoreau : fglrx and xorg ( mesa-utils ) is deinstalled now. which driver do you want me to install now?07:32
Idol_MindWhatToDo, Look on the bottom of the laptop for the exact model (dv5010t or some crap) and then go to hp.com's support section and search for that model number BIOS07:32
Idol_MindWhatToDo, If I'm not mistaken, I do think it is an exe, which will require Winblows to patch it07:32
soreaukoepi: Can you show the output of 'glxinfo|grep renderer'?07:33

EvilSushihow do you edit the grub.cfg in grub2? root editing shows it as read only07:35

AbhiJitEvilSushi, gksudo gedit /etc/default/grub07:36

Cpt_Zyphunderstood on tab but i cant see were it goes so 8/07:44
AbhiJitglaceman, apt-get search <term>07:44
soreaukoepi: But it helps to have a latest kernel because of the k in kms stands for, so this means you want the latest version of ubuntu or hope xorg-edgers repo installs a newer kernel for you07:45
Champnit-wit, well I have the screws out lol07:45

mkquistCpt_Zyph: click on the top bar and it move you down to the rest of the screen07:46
Champnit-wit, well im stumped :\07:46
koepisoreau : is it the xorg-edgers-noveau package I'll need?07:46
mkquistCpt_Zyph: lame, but it can help07:46
soreaukoepi: No, xorg-edgers is a repo. To get it all, this should work: sudo apt-get install python-software-properties && sudo add-apt-repository ppa:xorg-edgers/ppa && sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install libgl1-mesa-dri-experimental && sudo apt-get upgrade07:47
nit-witChamp, I am to really07:47
Cpt_Zyphmkquist im about to try that.. its just a crap dell mini and for the most part the stripped linux seems ot be quite fast.. also the mini netbook as a whole is a problem to use at times but im in the field so i need the portable thing07:47
Idol_MindI installed 10.10 x64 on my SSD drive and want to copy everything from my old drive to my new drive. How can I go about it? My old drive has an encrypted home partition.07:47
Cpt_Zyphmkquist would normal ubuntu run just as fast as this netbook one ?? im not sure were to get good reviews between the 2 or speed tests07:47
milamberglaceman, Abhijit: aptitude search <packagename> or you can use http://packages.ubuntu.com/ (there is a search at the bottom)07:48
mkquistCpt_Zyph: i think it does, tried the netbook ed, and didnt like it.  Run the regular desktop on my hp mini9, happy with it07:48
glacemanthanks milamber07:48
AbhiJitmilamber, atitude database and apt-get database is differennt07:49
mkquistCpt_Zyph: I personally dont like the netbook version07:49
Cpt_Zyphinteresting... i will have to try a side by side install or something as i dotn want to take the time to back this machine up quite yet.. but i will admit the window screen rez problems are getting old..07:49
Cpt_Zyphmkquist may I ask what you found to be the major differance ... as i know this is a matter or prefferance more then anything07:50
mkquistCpt_Zyph: i think the netbook edition is just 'trying' to make the most of the sceen size07:50
mkquistCpt_Zyph: but i dont really find it an advantage07:50
mkquistCpt_Zyph: you can always flip between the two easy enough07:51

ebrabullgrad4, i need the file in which the ip address is stored08:35
milamberGuest15794: can you open the software center and search for 'bad' packages?08:36
MrAnthropeSyria, virtualbox uses its own graphics drivers so there shouldn't be any extra steps if your monitor is working in Linux.08:37

bullgard4ebra: Let me re-iterate: It is stored in a RAM area which is for kernel use. You need to use a program which fetches this address and shows it to you.08:43
ebraok, bullgrad4, could you name one of these programs08:44
gobbeRypervenche: maybe your dvd is dirty08:44
splazoebra: ifconfig08:44
gobbeRypervenche: or there is lot's of scratches08:44
Rypervenchegobbe: There are no scratches or anything on either of them. I have kept them in the same place since I burned them, which was about 2 years ago.08:45
gobbeRypervenche: well, dvd is not longterm archive, as you might know08:45
ebrasplazo, i knew ifconfig but i need to somehow to cut this address08:46
gobbeRypervenche: and rw-medias are even worse in archive-usage08:46
splazoebra: maybe I should clarify. /proc is just a virtual file system where the kernel stuff stored in RAM that bullgard4 mention can be seen.08:46
Rypervenchegobbe: Ok, so there's nothing I can do then? I should just throw it out?08:46

zach32i have a usb webcam lsusb Bus 005 Device 002: ID 8086:0630 Intel Corp. Pocket PC Camera but when i run cheese nothing happens....help plz08:51
bullgard4ebra: Another method is to query http://www.dyndns.org/cgi-bin/check_ip.cgi08:51
splazoebra: what's with all the grepping and cutting? Can't you understand the output of ifconfig? ifconfig ppp0 should do the trick. As far as changing it goes, the dhcp server on the other end assigns the IP address to your card based on the card's mac address.08:53
splazoUntil the lease expires, you're stuck with the address unless you use a different card.08:53
amarcolinotrying to figure out if I reinstall grub it will fix the problem with this ubuntu 8.4 fresh install. If I try to boot without the livecd I get 'disk failed', however it works by using the livecd to boot the hard disk, any suggestions on fixing this problem?08:53

amarcolinoGnea: yeah that is what I thought but it is a fresh install08:54
splazoAh. But you want to change it for some reason.08:55
Gneaamarcolino: when you installed, did you have it install grub to the MBR of the entire disk or to the partition?08:55

AceKingI installed vpnautoconnect-1.1 on my PC. for some reason it's not letting me connect to my VPN at all. It automatically starts with the system and I don't know how to uninstall it, or at least stop it from starting automatically. can someone help?10:38
Ryu_KurisuAceKing: How did you install it? Deb?10:38
AceKingRyu_Kurisu, yes10:39
AceKingRyu_Kurisu, I tried double clicking the file again hoping it would have an uninstall command, but it only had reinstall10:39
Ryu_KurisuYou might need to go to synaptic and try to find the packages installed with the deb AceKing :)10:40
AceKingRyu_Kurisu, I tried that.. It's not there10:40
sre-suHow to open .amr files?10:40
AceKingRyu_Kurisu, I looked in System/ Preferences/ Startup, but it wasn't there10:41

Ryu_KurisuYou can try this AceKing: sudo dpkg -r package_name (i.e. sudo -r vpnautoconnect-1.1.deb)10:42
Ryu_KurisuThe package you can drag'n'drop to the terminal :) Ensures you don't type it wrong :)10:42

fructoseCan anyone point me in the right direction for how to troubleshoot bluetooth in Ubuntu 10.10? It cannot detect other devices, nor make itself visible.10:43
EugenMayerHello. I just reinstalled 10.10 from fresh ( previews was a upgrade from 9.10 to 10.04 to 10.10) .. suddenly my microphone ( creative xfi ) does not work anymore. Any ideas?10:43
fructoseFor instance, anyone have an idea how to find out what device/drivers are being used for bluetooth?10:44
Ryu_Kurisufructose: So you've got no bluetooth-indicator in the top-panel?10:44
fructoseRyu_Kurisu: There is an indicator10:44
Ryu_KurisuEugenMayer: Suddenly? Or from the start of the fresh install?10:45
fructoseRyu_Kurisu: I can tell it to turn on/off, go visible, etc. It's just not visible to other devices, nor can it detect others10:45
EugenMayerRyu_Kurisu: yes. the "upgraded" version worked10:45
EugenMayerRyu_Kurisu: i diff`ed anything in /etc/modprobe and /etc/modules and it seems to be 100% match10:45
Ryu_KurisuEugenMayer: After my fresh install of 10.10 my mic was muted...10:45
AceKingRyu_Kurisu, http://paste.ubuntu.com/552410/10:46

EugenMayerAFAIK all channels are unmuted and full volume. I can record from PCM (useless) but i can record from micro10:46
Ryu_KurisuAceKing: is it in your home-folder? You can drag and drop the file so it takes the correct package...10:46

Wolfsherzskpl, what is the problem with formatting the hd?10:55

Gneaoh, never force vesa on an nvidia11:39
Gneathat's just asking for trouble11:40
zipperheadit seems like its to do with display like its not set properly or resolution is 2 high11:40
zipperheadcoz sometimes i see thos wave line11:40
Gneawavelines indicate that the electrons on the display are not fast enough11:40
GneaIOW, Hz is too slow11:41
zipperheadpossible but how do i set it11:41
zipperheador how do i boot in just any resolution so i can set it up11:41
Gneain the display options, typically11:41
bonjoyeeEugenMayer: meanwhile check this out..https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=8344911:41
zipperheadyes but i cant get in to  display options11:41
MadRobotHi all11:41
Gneacan you boot the livecd?11:41
zipperheadi think so11:42
zipperheadi can try11:42
Gneatry it, see if the display shows then11:42
MadRobotIs it possible to add transition effects to the xml script that changes the background image?11:42
zipperheadokay will do11:42
zipperheadthanks Gnea  get back to u soon11:42
EugenMayerbonjoyee: its exactly the same issue - and not solved11:42
wookienzerUSUL: ok thanks... looks like it should be a goer. cant hurt it by trying, right?!?!11:43
Gneai may not be here11:43
bonjoyeeEugenMayer: u tried that earlier?11:43
zipperheadi am just waiting for install to finish11:43
EugenMayerbonjoyee: yes, by myself ( did not find that issue )11:43
EugenMayerbonjoyee: what he does is recording from PCM - which works but does not help the mic-input issue11:43
jgberr: g++-multilib: Depends: g++-4.4-multilib but it is not going to be installed (Ubuntu 10.10 AMD64)11:44
erUSULwookienz: i do not see how ... use assemble commands. according to man page « Assemble the components of a previously created array into an active array. Components can be explicitly  given  or  can  be searched  for.   mdadm checks that the components do form a bona fide array, and can, on request, fiddle superblock informa‐ tion so as to assemble a faulty array.11:44
EugenMayerbonjoyee: thats why PCM is "muted" in my recording tab11:44
erUSULwookienz: so you should be on the safe side of thnigs11:44
EugenMayerbonjoyee: i think it comes does to what i selected as "recording input". if you look at my ss, you see that PCM is selected. I cant "deselect" it using the gui, might work with alsactl though11:45
EugenMayerbonjoyee: that would most prob match http://www.mail-archive.com/lug@linux.or.ug/msg14772.html11:45
EugenMayerbonjoyee: but i actually have no idea how to work with alsactl11:45
bonjoyeeEugenMayer: ok..also i believe for such an advanced audio card...there should an option "Channels" that says the no of output channels like 2,4,6 etc..so we are missing some config options here..something extra that need to added to /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base.conf11:47
erUSULwookienz: maybe you can just copy over the NAS /etc/mdadm/mdadm.conf if any ( change drive names accordingly of course  )11:48
EugenMayerbonjoyee: thats why i checked back with my "upgraded" 10.10 and compared alsa-base.conf but they 100% match11:48
EugenMayerbonjoyee: iam not sure, but i remember the xfi used emu10k as driver, not somehow ctxfi is used11:49
bonjoyeeEugenMayer: sudo modinfo snd-ctxfi lists a few parameters..if you'd like to try them,,,but thats just a trial and error thing...11:49
EugenMayerbonjoyee: well i have to reboot each time, dont i?11:50
wookienzerUSUL: would a --scan not find super blocks etc of the newly installed drives on the dekstop nic machine and assemble that way?11:50
bonjoyeeEugenMayer: yeah..:-(11:50

MidWaylibclutk appears to be involved.12:03
MidWayacicula: Fair enough. Do you know of any solutions or where I should work.12:04
aciculathe segfault point varies, but the constant is the mutter wm12:04
MidWayacicula: Correct.12:04
aciculaMidWay: not really, it only happens for me with a select group of programs, i tend to switch to normal ubuntu when that happens12:04

bonjoyeeDBoyz: ubuntu is the username... password is blank12:47
rusty149DBoyz: When installing alternate form pendrivelinux, what do you see12:47
nimrod10lorenzosu, use fsck  to check your disks , not fdisk12:47
nimrod10!fsck | lorenzosu12:47
ubottulorenzosu: fsck is the FileSystem ChecKer, which runs automatically when you boot if you didn't shutdown cleanly. Type "man fsck" for information on running it manually. The command "sudo shutdown -F -r now" will force a reboot and a filesystem check; "sudo touch /fastboot" will skip a filesystem check at next reboot12:47

jocrawfohello everyone, last week I installed 10.10 on my work laptop and installed vpnc for the cisco vpn, I imported my vpn profiles from another system and I can connect to the VPN just fine, when i run ifconfig i can see that it created a new interface and has an ip, however at that point I cannot resolve anything.  I cannot even reach the network proxy settings so my question is where can i see the logs on Ubuntu for the VPNC connections13:52
sacarlsonjocrawfo: maybe it's just not routed?  show me sudo route13:54

ListenerJoin #foobar200014:40
Dr_Willisfeder87:  you boot any live cd, get to a terminal in it. and you can 'chroot' into the installed linux system and attempt to fix grub.14:40
sam-_-ubuntuser, not sure if you will be able to use it like this. it's a mp3-player right?14:40
Dr_Willisfeder87:  an actual ubuntu live cd. woudl be a bit easier to use however.14:41
LarrivDr_Willis, ya but i remenber when i was a kids i was chatting on Mirc Click and my father right some scrypt and i had alot of command there14:41
Eryn_1983_FLI got  backups14:41
sam-_-ubuntuser, you can format it but then you won't be able to listen to music anymore i guess14:41
Eryn_1983_FLthis is my second  drive..14:41

NorthwoodsThe web server software is running but no content has been added, yet.14:42
feder87Dr_willis: I did a netinst so I had it all on the flashdrive14:42
Dr_WillisLarriv:  xchat has trimmed down its menus over the years.. the homepage has docs on advanced features and adding stuff.14:42

r1pp3rj4cknow I have a new problem, which is a bit more annoying than my other problem is... so I can't install a new package, because it has dependencies... it would be ok, but I can't fix it by using apt-get update --fix-missing, because it exits with this line: E: Some index files failed to download, they have been ignored, or old ones used instead.14:44

younderrp2: www.ubuntu-user.com15:08
rp2so I strongly doubt they can help me fix that problem15:08
ne2kBlaDe^: but the fact that you haven't got one kinda suggests that maybe you don't have NTP15:08
BlaDe^yeah I don't think I do that folder isn't there15:09
ne2kBlaDe^: install ntp then15:09
rp2same for ubuntu-user.com, it returns 1 hit and the returned document is a letter about safe web browsing15:09

patriot12112Hi everyone, I just installed Ubuntu 10.10, but after restarting my pc, the last version doesn't show up on grub, any solutioins?15:12
Dr_Willispatriot12112:  last version?15:12
BlaDe^ne2k:  this is on my server not my desktop -- i guess the desktop comes with ntp as default15:12
patriot12112Using update-grub detects it15:12
ne2kBlaDe^: probably not15:13
Dr_Willispatriot12112:  You mean a new upddated kernel 'version' ?15:13
ne2kBlaDe^: I just always install it so have probably forgotten that it's not default15:13
patriot12112Last version yeah 10.1015:13
patriot12112No, new ubuntu version, with the kernel that comes with it15:13
BlaDe^ne2k:  should I keep ntp.ubuntu.com ?15:13
rp2younder: I already searched there. it's useless15:13
Dr_Willispatriot12112:  so yopu have ubuntu 10.04 and 10.10 both installed?15:13
ne2kno, do 0.pool.ntp.org, 1. and 2.15:13
patriot12112I have three versions of Ubuntu installed yes.15:14
Dr_Willispatriot12112:  only ONE handles the grub..  You sh ould update-grub int he one thats handling that.. I cant see the point in isntalling 3 versions of ubuntu really. :)15:14
patriot12112Found Ubuntu 10.10 (10.10) on /dev/sdb4   update-grub just said that15:14
Dr_Willispatriot12112:  could be one of the other versions is handling grub then.15:14
patriot12112I did it, but it still doesn't show anything about the new version15:14
Dr_Willispatriot12112:  you could do 'sudo dpkg-reconfigure grub-pc' perhaps.15:15
rp2younder: you're spamming.15:15
Dr_Willispatriot12112:  what other ubuntus do you have installed? 10.04 > or are you refering to klubuntu/ubuntu/xubuntu ?15:15
patriot12112I have Ubuntu 9.04, 10.04, and I just installed 10.10 using the CD.15:15
gobbepatriot12112: what is your idea to have three installations?-)15:15
patriot12112Is there maybe a limit on how many entries grub handles?15:16
Dr_Willispatriot12112:  its likely that 9.04 is handlign the grub 1, and is not seeing the other versions.15:16
Dr_Willisgrub1 dosent auto-see all the ubuntu versions last i tried it.15:16
patriot12112I used Update-grub on 10.04, it's using grub2 right?15:16
BlaDe^great it's working - thanks ne2k15:16
DBoyzokay15:16
DBoyzwhere's mr. rusty15:16
Dr_Willisif you boot the 10.10, and try 'sudo update-grub' or 'dpkg-reconfigure grub-pc' and tell it to isntall the the mbr of the hd you are booting. it 'should' show them all.15:17
DBoyztell him that his method fails too15:17
ne2kBlaDe^: you can run ntpq -pn from the command line to make sure it's locking on -- look for the asterisk in the first column15:17
patriot12112Yeah15:17
* Dr_Willis has to run.. bbl15:17
Night_Elfgobbe: well, xnest seems to crash on my machine after some 30-40 seconds of runtime. But I wonder where is the option of using a remote xdmcp connection at the login screen?15:17
DBoyzall i got was a blinking underscore15:17
DBoyznothing else15:17
patriot12112I think my the 10.04 actually detects 10.10, but the update-grub that was taken into account was only the 9.04 one15:18
BlaDe^ne2k: yup all working fine15:18
patriot12112That's why there was no update, it's using an older grub version15:18

Steve973hi.  I was wondering where I can configure how apt automatically gets an update to let me know that updates are available16:42
ne2kmavmeer: you're not supposed to have a root password16:42
KrupteinerUSUL: nope? so all your files are kept :D awesome no need to do the alternate thing;  but wait what does this mode do? only fix system errors or...?16:43
mavmeerok thanks everyone16:43
erUSULKruptein: it gives a few options the more usefull is to enter single mode ( root command line )16:43
mavmeerbye16:43
ne2kSteve973: apt doesn't automatically do anything. are you talking about update manager?16:43
mattttttperfect ty16:44
KrupteinerUSUL: okay I removed ubuntu-desktop and some gnome files will they be restored if I do the recovery mode or not?16:44
kj_danyway to install just one package without the dependencies and recommends?16:44
=== nemo__ is now known as matias____
erUSULKruptein: no16:44
Steve973ne2k, I wasn't implying that apt did something automatically.  I'm wondering what periodically performs an apt-get update and notifies me when I log in when there are updates.16:44
AbhiJitkj_d, get it from packages.ubuntu.com16:44
snowrichardi have an android tablet that is supposed to be able to connect to ubuntu pc with usb cable.  I read somewhere that it needs a udev rule with the device id codes, bu t I have no idea what the code is.16:44
Da_RhynoHey... does anyone know how I can move the Trash to my desktop?16:44
ne2kkj_d: you can't install it without the dependencies, that would be foolish. if you really must, and you really know what you're doing, you shoudln't have to ask that question16:44
snowrichardI got around the problem by debugging on an emulator then putting the android tablet .pck on my web server and downloading it.16:45
kj_dAbhiJit, I tried that but somehow it installs the dependencies again16:45
Da_RhynoI can't drag it via my computer to the desktop...16:45

rubbssnowrichard: if you are trying to use your tablet as a tether you do, but if you're just trying to transfer files, you should be able to just plug it in and it should be recognized as a mass storage.16:46
AbhiJitkj_d, what you actually want to do?16:46
RedswissIs there a file system than can be read by both Ubuntu and Mac OS X?16:46

snowrichardi don't know if there's a setting to enable usb storage on the tablet side16:48

AbhiJitmavmeer, all youtube video by defaults go to /tmp16:52
snowrichardmy other android device, an htc aria does have the prompt and it opened as a disk asking if I wanted to run photo manager16:52
AbhiJitne2k, it doesnt depend on broswer16:53
HypoglybeticBlueKaj Because i wish to host virtual servers and through "Why the hell not?"16:53
HypoglybeticBlueKaj thought*16:53
ne2kAbhiJit: firefox stores cache in ~/.mozilla/firefox/*/Cache/, chrome stores cache in ~/.cache/google-chrome/Cache/, QED16:54
BluesKajHypoglybetic, so you have 2 satic IPs in etc/network/interfaces16:54
BluesKajstatic IPs16:54
ne2kAbhiJit: don't make superior sounding statement about things when you are wrong16:54
AbhiJitne2k, right but you can find youtube video in /tmp easily thats default location for all browser.16:54
HypoglybeticBlueKaj Yes, they're connected into a Hub which is connected into my FIOS router-- this PC is also connected into the hub.16:54

AbhiJitdunno if they have changed this in maverick then.16:57

AbhiJitbut here in lucid right now i am having youtube video running in chromium in my /tmp16:58
AbhiJitne2k, no16:58
AbhiJitne2k, it wasnt16:58
ne2kAbhiJit: thank you16:58
BluesKajHypoglybetic, so there's no room on your router for a direct connection , you have to use a hub ?16:59

lamikHello, where can i find vmware .deb?17:00
AbhiJitne2k, it depepnds on the version of the ubuntu not the which browser yoou are using17:00
HypoglybeticBluesKaj The hub is also gigabit which allows much faster transfers between my 2 PCS - it helps when you play a game over a virtualized OS (such as ESXi)17:00

phox_bastidrazor: i didnt get any "results". So it's a 32 bits system. So what type of cpu is it? (i686, x86-64 or "dual architecture)17:33
compdocflacom, monitors can go bad that way too17:33
Huffamegedbian: yes.. like word only with less functions..17:33
ne2kmmo|: g2g, hoep it works17:33
bastidrazorphox_: no, its a 32bit processor.. i68617:34
Huffamegedbian: http://code.google.com/p/marave/17:34
BluesKajphox_,  it's 64 bit , but it will also run x86, which is 32 bit and if RAM is less thn 4G , then there won't be a noticable difference in performance17:34
edbianHuffameg: Have you seen abiword?  (similar app, in the repos)17:34
phox_blueskaj and bastidrazor: okey thx, ill choose i686 :)17:34
justaskBluesKaj: other than ram management, how much speedup can you really see on 64bit compiled sw?17:34
st__edbian, abiword is unusable c..p17:35
justaskjust to figure out if it's worthy17:35
edbianst__: Huh?17:35
edbianHuffameg: Download the package, unpack it, cd into that directory with the term.  You did all that correctly?17:35
bluenemohow can i check my cpu temperature when acpi -t doesnt give output, and /proc/acpi/processor and so on isnt there?17:35
Huffamegedbian: ah.. this is not at all what i'm looking for. actually i'm looking for a linux alternative to ommwriter (http://www.ommwriter.com/)17:36
justaskis lm_sensors installed bluenemo?17:36
st__do not recommend low-queality software17:36
bluenemojustask, yes17:36
edbianst__: What are you talking about?  Many distros use abi-word.17:36
justaskdo you see some sensors output?17:37
justasklike smart, ecc...17:37
edbianHuffameg: Let's just install this app :)  I wanna see it run.  Did you download and extract the package?17:37
BluesKajjustask, dunno how its expressed in speed terms , but I've heard that 4 core cpus with 64bit and 6G ram is noticable17:37
Huffamegjes17:37
bluenemoyes, but they dont show the cpu temp i think.. i cross referenced with my debian (where acpi -t and sensors work..)17:37
justaskso with 4 cores...i also hoped for duals :-)17:37
Huffamegedbian: yes. now i got another error msg: error: could not create '/usr/local/lib/python2.6/dist-packages/marave': Permission denied17:37

erUSUL!lamp | Qrchack18:13
ubottuQrchack: LAMP is an acronym for Linux-Apache-MySQL-PHP. However, the term is often used for setups using alternative but different software, such as Perl or Python instead of PHP, and Postgres instead of MySQL. For help with setting up LAMP on Ubuntu, see  https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ApacheMySQLPHP - See also the Server CD installation process (different in Edgy+)18:13
NanohaI've set up the mysql user database.  I have two users.  The first user was originally a system user.  i can log in as this user.  The second user is a virtual user, I can not log in as this user.  Yes, I restarted vsftpd.18:13

justaskersul...yep, very quick, like licensed counterparts19:06
KrupteinerUSUL: okay this is maybe interesting, I ran sudo apt-get update19:06
Haunt_Househi, if I put a script into autostart and it doesn't work, how can I track the error? the python script itself works fine outside Autostart.19:06

deepestthought42hi all! I've made a new installation with 10.10 and now have problems using setxkbmap (without any normal desktop evn. -- i'm using stumpwm) to configure switching between layouts.

seulerusul: i didnt loose grub after installing windows, windows 7 was there first and was running along ubuntu. Then i tried to installed arch linux, but i exited the installation and tried to boot up again. Now this mess! It doesnt even recognizer "sudo fdisk -l"19:09
justasklinux has different startup and boot files / methods19:09
deepestthought42you mean instead ? nothing just can't switch between layouts; using the gnome conf tool works as long as gnome is running19:09
Haunt_Housejustask, yes, the builtin stuff like notification of updates works. I guess python is not ready when the script is executed, But I don't know how to check19:09

xanguamisterblu: mmm sorry, i am not an expert of that kind of thinks of hardware detection, ubuntu detects evething i put them so never had an issue19:45
bartimaeusmaco: no, isn't there a key-chain tool that will store passphrases19:45
misterblui try a 10.04 but it doesn't work19:45
agnosticerUSUL: i want to change the size of sda119:45
macobartimaeus: yeah, seahorse19:46
erUSULagnostic: you have a partition ( note the light blue frame ) in the free space you have to remove it before you can resize the first one19:46

misterbluok bye19:46

evilbugNewWorld: well if this won't read it then i lost hope.19:46
erUSULevilbug: well; does not look good...19:46
agnosticerUSUL: So i have to delete the grub-loader + linux???19:47
KrupteinerUSUL: I can fix every problem I create and once every 6 months aprox  I screw up one thing so hard that whole my system just dies :D and then I come crying on this channel xD19:47
evilbugerUSUL: indeed.19:47
erUSULevilbug: check the fisical conection maybe the sata cable is loose ( or even power connector )19:47
evilbugerUSUL: but it would be a hardware issue?19:47
justaskxangua: better that than not having a driver19:47
evilbugerUSUL: i checked numerous times.19:47
NewWorldevilbug:  Maybe the jumpers are messed up. Like you know the pins on it that say master,slave,etc19:47

evilbugNewWorld: well what's odd is that earlier when i booted an alternate install cd, the partitioner showed me the internal hdd.19:49
erUSULagnostic: /me facepalm ... the windows partition is primary and the free space you got is in the extended partition ....19:49
evilbugNewWorld: but on the live desktop gparted will not give me anything nor will fdisk.19:49
erUSULevilbug: https://ata.wiki.kernel.org/index.php/Libata_error_messages19:49
NewWorldevilbug:  :S try 'cfdisk' in terminal19:50
agnosticerUSUL: So there is no possibility to give the vista more space?19:50
erUSULagnostic: right click on the extend partition and see if you can shrink it19:50
erUSULagnostic: you can create a ntfs partition there and that will appear in windows as another unit19:51
agnosticerUSUL: It's my mom's pc. She won't get it ^^19:51

erUSULagnostic: then as i said right click on the extend partition and see if you can shrink it19:51

justaskKruptein: dont you have it in fstab?19:53
erUSULagnostic: well then i dunno what to do; unless you can remove the ubuntu partitions19:53

testohi im about to set up a printer server with ubuntu and i was wondering if i could use a client pc and configure the printer to be only reachable via samba19:53
thievenKruptein, you can type sudo blkid to find that.19:53
testoso even the client pc goes through samba if he wants to print19:54
Krupteinjustask nope it's an external hard drive ;)  but I think it's /dev/sdc as it seems to have the same ammount of space as the hard drive19:54
agnosticOk, i may found out, that something is mounted... there is hope. one moment...19:54
Krupteinthieven: thanks that did indeed give the uuid, however I don't need it anymore ;) thanks anyway19:54

benji122Hi, the command "sh -c set" shows SHELL='/bin/bash' instead of SHELL=/bin/bash (note the quotes). How can I know when that change occured please ?19:56
Krupteinthieven, justask   basicly I screwed up my ubuntu GUI gnome and gdm,  but I can reach all my files trough tty so I'm trying to back them up,  but as I screwed up ubuntu, the system does not recognize my usbs and ext hard drives anymore like it would when you just plug them in :) so I need to mount them manually19:56
agnosticerUSUL: I think i unmounted everything. But gparted still means, that something of the extended is mounted.19:56
thievenKruptein, i would guess your fstab is screwed up then...19:57
justaskok Kruptein19:57
erUSULbenji122: why would that matter ?19:57
agnosticerUSUL: Ok, i did something strange with the linux-swap, now it works. But i hope, i didnt destroy anything ^^19:57
erUSULagnostic: ok; good luck19:57
Krupteinthieven that's possible as I think it all started with my nvidia driver that started doing abnormal things19:57
GeekManwhen ur using lts you can only upgrade to the next lts this means i have better stablity correct19:57
benji122erUSUL, long story19:58
thieventhat would be odd that the nvidia driver would do something to your drives or your fstab.19:58
justaskKruptein: video driver can mess many things...but not filesystem or drives19:58
xanguaGeekMan: you can upgrade to normal versions too if you want19:58
thievenKruptein, if you plug in your usb ext drive, does it mount? or you have to manually mount it?19:58
erUSULbenji122: sh in ubuntu is /bin/dash so the SHELL variable is missleading/not dependable. that's true with quotes or without them19:58
Krupteinjustask let's assume it's a bunch of things that all happen together :D19:58
GeekManwhats the advantages and disadvantages im sure there arnt many though19:59
Krupteinthieven, I need to do it manually, but I now know how to do that ;)19:59

justaskwe can call it accumulation of nasty events :-)19:59
agnosticerUSUL: Next time, if somebody asks: If you see this key-sign in gparted: that means, something is mounted ^^19:59
BluesKajagnostic, what options do you have when you right click on the ntfs partition ?19:59
thievenKruptein, it does sound like something wierd has happened to your OS. so yah, backup all your stuff and reinstall linux and you'll be good to go.19:59
thievenKruptein, is there a prob in backing up your stuff?20:00
GeekManim putting this on a desktop replacement (old gaming laptop)20:00

rumpe2venik, well ... move one folder somewhere else and start thunderbird... if it produces error/looks different, move it back20:11
GeekManit was ok i can barely remeber but it ran well20:11
rusty149venik: You maybe a link to the other, this supports out-of-date/incorrect pathnames. Use, ls -la ~  , to see a list of files and there links20:11
edbianskutr3: It's a hack so the problems that arise are somtimes harder to fix.  Additionally it's locked inside windows so if you want to remove windows but not Ubuntu it's a much more complicated process.20:11
thievenskutr3, do a live cd. see if you like it. (a live usb key is best / faster) and if you do like it, install it with windows.  wubi - i dont get the point of wubi....20:12
skutr3ok20:12

folkloreI wonder if FloodBot was created on ubuntu :D20:26
fluvvellDanny78, why don't you try dnsmasq instead.  Why do you need dnsproxy ?20:27
erUSULDanny78: sudo apt-get install dnsproxy errors out? or what is exactly the problem with the ubuntu version of the package?20:27
Danny78fluvvell:  Samba package requires it20:27

erUSULfolklore: ask the coder? he is here ;P20:27
lithprwhen doing remote desktop control for ubuntu,  what would you recommend using vnc?  I see it listed in the "remote desktop viewer" app in 10.10...20:27
thievenArachon, yeah i thin it's the unity thing that i hate.   i curse the day when ubuntu switches to that.     i think i will have to stay on maverick for years....20:27
GeekMani just hope i dont f up my mbr and find out grub lost my windows drive20:27
Arachonthieven: They'll be improving it in 11.04/11.10 though, or so I'm told20:28
ArachonAnd then you can always install GNOME yourself, no?20:28
Danny78one sec....20:28
thievenGeekMan, if you f up yer mbr, do not worry as grub can fix it.20:28
eviljamesjustask: Both.  I am happy with Slackware's approach of super-simple, stripped down Linux, and I know it fairly well.  The only reason I'm considering moving is because there's apparently a significant performance difference for ubuntu studio20:28
fluvvellDanny78, which samba package requires it? I have samba installed, no dsnproxy though?20:28
eviljamesjustask: So, I put it onto an LV, but now I can't get initramfs to finish the loading :D20:28
kyle____anyone know how to edit grub to auto select option.20:28
GeekManone thing i never learned to do20:28
sam-_-thieven, you don't have to use unity.20:28

Danny78fluvvell:  simply  "samba"20:29

bencahilleviljames: why raid0?20:56
eviljamesbencahill: Want to squeeze as much data in/out as possible.  audio recording, multi track20:56

BusMasterSean93, xmodmap allows you to remap keys. It is up to you whether you want to switch or not21:00
FaiLicanbencahill: but how do I change the firmware ?21:00

Harakenquick question for you guys, I've been noticing on on some ubuntu 10.04 raid1 installs it doesn't want to boot into the O/S after the install.  All of my installs are on brand new hardware with brand new hard drives.  Once install with 2x 1tb drives went just fine, the other with 2x 500gb drives an me some random error about not being able to boot by uuid.  My solution for this in the past would be to just install 9.10 then upgrade but I'm wondering i21:15

sam-_-afancy_, can't bind the port anymore?21:16
franz_I got that information through the support staff using the machine via a kvm switch21:16
justaskcrawler: maybe the network-manager?21:16

pwnguinread your ToS21:29
dcpwnguin: yes but , i want to find out what's blocking port 6667 , is it ubuntu or something ellse, it looks like ubuntu21:30
freerideguys, advice please a good swf player fro ubuntu with controls21:30
eviljamesHello, /lastlog eviljames21:30
eviljameserr21:30
pwnguindc: you double checked the ircd config and it's listening on port 6667?21:30
K4kdc: what does 'iptables --list' show?21:31
dcpwnguin: before i do that, i have to check what's blocking port 6667 , because once an ip says conenction timeout that means the port is blocked, the rest of the ports are oen21:31
coordinadorjustask,  what can i do?21:32
coordinadori have an usb sound card, its a little green one, the problem is that sometimes works, sometimes not, now is not working, my OS is ubuntu 10.0421:32
dcit says i need to be root21:32
coordinador when i do lsusb, i get:  Bus 004 Device 002: ID 1130:f211 Tenx Technology, Inc. audio headset21:32
pwnguindc: connection refused also means the port is blocked...21:32
dcK4k: it says i need to be root21:32
K4kdc: then 'sudo iptables --list'21:32
justaskwhat do you have to do to fix? reboot? detaching usb cable?21:32

Sephnrothi setup an  little ubuntu server for local web dev testing and also svn use.  i wanted my friend to have access and also be able to ssh in. i created a (working) dyndns domain and pointed it at my ip.  on router i forwarded port 80 for http and 22 for ssh. ssh wont connect at all21:34

Sephnrothand going there in a browser displays text from the index page but an image on it refuses to load completely -works fine over lan. is it possiable unbuntus firewall is interfearing?21:35
K4kdc: that's ubuntu's firewall, if you see anything under the "chain INPUT" section about reject or drop 6667 yoiu found your problem21:35
Lantchipsjustask thank you for the page :) I will use it for future :) Only had one other with the same problem and no one answered :) but thank you :)21:35
pwnguinim still guessing ircd is configured wrong / not started21:36
no_dvi_outputSephnroth, what happens when you ssh to your machine on localhost? do you get the login prompt?21:36

justaski only did a quick search Lantchips, maybe trying more you can find a working solution21:36
Sephnrothbetter than that i can ssh from a remote machine thats on the same lan as the server using its lan ip and i can login fine21:36
testosamba and ldap printer share is driving me crazy. why is this so extremely complicated to set up?21:36
Sephnrothusing the internet ip for the router = dead21:37

testoi get the users from ldap with id USERNAME but i cant log into shares21:37
testoneither can i print21:37
justaskk thank you too21:37
no_dvi_outputok, clear, then it must be some firewall as indicated earlier21:37
dcK4k: can you have a look please at http://paste.ubuntu.com/552600/21:37
justaskno_dvi_output: it is the most likely cause in general21:37
Sephnrothi have forwarded what i think is relevent and i have even tried setting the servers lan ip as a DMZ host, still ssh wont get through :/21:37
Sephnrothso i was wondering if its common that something, maybe locally on the ubuntu machine, stops a return signal going out21:38
no_dvi_outputthat's very well possible justask, yes.21:38
dcpwnguin: before i start installing ircd, i need to make sure that the port is open21:38
K4kdc: is AS0 your primary network interface?21:38
justaskand often it's also hard to find out how it does it21:38
dcwhat is that man?21:38
testook why do the users show up with id USER but not with getent passwd21:39
pwnguindc: and the only way to verify that is to actually have a program listen on the port and test it21:39
no_dvi_outputpossibly stopping the local firewall temporarily in order to understand if the connection is then working, would be best I guess?21:39
pwnguinyou could run a tiny webserver like wbox on port 6667, but i think most browsers specifically hate that port21:39
pwnguintelnet shouldn't though21:40
justaskyes it's a good try21:40
dcpwnguin: i mite do that in a minute to see if it will work21:40
K4kdc: I could be wrong, I'm no iptables expert but I don't see anything in there that would cause a problem21:40
matlockhow do i make vinagre run at boot time21:40
matlockso i can remote into ubuntu21:40

matlockthis is starting to become retarded21:40
no_dvi_outputSephnroth, not sure what firewall runs on your machine but can you temporarliy disable it?21:40
no_dvi_outpute.g. sudo /etc/init.d/iptables stop21:40
dcK4k: yeh, nothing there blocking port 6667, its the only port that's blocked21:41
matlockcause it seems that not even the online how to's have the process right21:41
Sephnrothit says iptables command not foundm which is odd.  thats the default ubuntu firewall and i havnt installed any other ones21:41

fluvvellDanny78, bonus! So you're doing the right thing reading a tutorial, if you can share a folder from the ubuntu machine, then it should appear on the windows network browser.  Its a very specific thing, the windows network browser, its only looking for shares22:07
justaskbut what is initramfs called for? i dont see the connection there22:07
fluvvellDanny78, people mistakenly think if the machine doesn't show up, its not on the network! Of course without a share to show, the windows browser wont find it.22:07

Danny78fluvvell:  an actual path I want to share?  like /home/<user>/Documents?22:24
fluvvellDanny78, yes22:24
andrewaxmust see if this vnc server needs xorg22:24

soadroxsHey, I just installed nautilus-elementary and my path bar disappeared, but if I press Ctrl-L, the address bar appears in the path bar space.22:24
matlockandrewax>  considering i just used /etc/init.d/vncserver   and that didn't work, i fail to see how putting a command (that fails to work mind you) into rc.local will work22:24
goltoofscript load nickcolor.pl22:24
mhahehey guys im on a mac 6,2 ... on the latest kernel build it doesnt work, so i have to boot up in the previous. i went to mac support's page on ubuntu site. nothing was mentioned... i get: kernel panic - not syncing:VFS: unable to mount root fs on unknown-block(0,0)22:25
justaskcraiggles so that mark means not mounted? makes sense btw22:25
fluvvellDanny78, you will need     read only = no   if you hope to be able to write from the winbox22:25
justaski would however try with something different from gparted22:25
justaskif there is one obviously22:25
craigglesjustask: just hovered..nothing appears, clicked on it and its got some warnings - that's what they are - not that it's not mounted.22:26
Danny78fluvvell:  yeah, username...  I might be paranoid, but I'm studying security22:26
fluvvellDanny78, if you can, I'd go back to the standard config file that came with the package, and just add the share description piece at the bottom.22:26
justaskk, what warnings? you see them? also in dmesg?22:26
craiggleshttp://oi52.tinypic.com/k53pcw.jpg22:26
justaskgparted is supposed to work without probs22:26
fluvvellDanny78, yeah? well once this starts working, you might want to tighten it up a bit and only let users with passwords have access to your share22:26

ryan_languagelabi switched from xubuntu to ubuntu22:37
MyrttiNanoha: bash is a "command interpreter" anyway, so yes, it works on a command prompt22:37

rumpe1gilles, but for most things, commandline is sufficient and very fast22:38
Geekneeusryan_languagelab: Have there been updates in synaptic which haven't shown in update manager22:39
fluvvellDanny78, just looking at the link, Its got heaps of stuff with cups you should probably leave alone for now.    "the rest the same?"  -> change the path of course. you might keep the force user and put your username there22:39

sg|dunno mine is not starting23:07
lestatBernardV: :)23:07
XVampireXI've got drupal set up with LAMP on ubuntu23:07
XVampireXall I need is sharing23:07
thieven`do you still need to do gksudo when launching a program?   like gksudo gedit /etc/default/grub23:07
Danny78fluvvell:  that makes it easier, but I'm still not seeing my Ubuntu box from win723:07
BernardVlestat: Was just some info for people who run into the same problems I did...23:08
rumpe1sg|, have you rebooted? ... maybe manual start with "sudo service smbd start" or such ... maybe you need to add a start-command into /etc/rc.local...23:08
fluvvellDanny78, I'm going to have to leave in about a half hour, can I recommend  #ubuntu-server for your  samba help once I'm away?23:08
Danny78fluvvell:  sure, and thanks so much for your help23:08
fluvvellDanny78,  smbstatus   -> pastebin23:08
fluvvellDanny78, my pleasure.23:08
fluvvellDanny78, did you set up a workgroup in your win7 box?  It needs to be the same as the workgroup name you assign in the start of the smb.conf file23:09
MojoWorkhey, anyone recall the name of the package that shows you an outstanding bug list when you do aptitude safe-update?23:10
BernardVsudo /etc/init.d/smbd restart (or /etc/init.d/samba4 for samba 4)23:10
Danny78fluvvell, yeah, the workgroup is set up,  smbstatus:  http://pastebin.com/mTQLwDF223:10
rusty149XVampireX: Do you know the name of the website?23:10
XVampireXhuh?23:10
XVampireXIt's on my computer....23:10
fluvvellDanny78, my apologies, it should have been smbtree23:10
grim|2any1 have any idea why i get overflow when trying to join ##php channel?23:11
rusty149XVampireX: Yes, what is the name of the website file, you want to link23:11
XVampireXnot website file23:11
XVampireXa whole website23:11
DonJuanhi23:11
elkygrim|2, you need to be registered.23:11
grim|2acctually you give the link to the index file23:11
grim|2oooo23:12
grim|2thx23:12
breadcrumbgrim|2 you need to register with nickserv23:12
elkyand identified obviously ;)23:12
Danny78fluvvell, http://pastebin.com/cbg19fSV23:12
rusty149XVampireX: OK but you would send them a link to one page e.g the home page.23:12
XVampireXgrim|2, As far as I'm concerned my browser goes there just fine with localhost/drupal23:12
BernardVgrim|2: Which client.. I can join with irssi...23:12
grim|2kvirc23:12
GeekneeusXVampireX: You need to send them your I.P23:13
BernardVgrim|2: Don't know the client.. maybe it's the 482 nicks ?23:13
XVampireXI need to forward port 80 to my pc? I'm on a lan23:13
rusty149XVampireX: Try #drupal23:13
rusty149XVampireX: OK23:14
fluvvellDanny78, I dont recommend spaces in machine or workgroup names, but have you named your ubuntuserver SAMBA24?23:14
rusty149XVampireX: You would do that in the lan router23:14
rumpe1spaces are evil :/23:14
GeekneeusXVampireX: Your external I.P is your only link to the outside world and 80 would need to be forwarded23:14
Danny78fluvvell:  my ubuntu server is buddha, so I'm guessing I need to change that23:14
userWhat should I do? Unable to open env file: /etc/default/locale: No such file or directory23:14
grim|2yeah to alah23:15
grim|2:))23:15
BernardVXVampireX: http://portforward.com/ <-- most routers explained23:15
XVampireXah23:15
fluvvellDanny78, hehe, well if you had used the default smb.conf and added your shares at the bottom, the name would have come out the same.23:15
shcherbakuser: What gives command: locale ?23:16
lestatBernardV: lol23:16
lestatyou're so mean23:16
jason_fnguys, i created a swap partition. do i have to point system to use it, or will system "see" it itself after reboot?23:17
thieven`jason_fn, it will just use it.23:17
thieven`jason_fn, hmm, after you've installed the OS... hmm, that part i'm not sure of.23:18
jason_fnthieven` thank u =)23:18
Danny78fluvvell:  this is weird  http://pastebin.com/xpmuAN9423:18
thieven`jason_fn, you shuld get a second opinion on that one.   heheh.23:18
usershcherbak: http://pastebin.mozilla.org/92231223:18
jason_fnwell, yes, i installed without swap23:18
jason_fnok23:18
PerSeLhello, how can I make sure ubuntu using video drivers for my video card?23:18
userPerSeL, try to use it23:19
userif it works then it is using them23:19
jason_fnPerSel, system - administration -> additional drivers23:19
thieven`jason, you dont really need swap.23:19
fluvvellDanny78, don't worry its just because you've changed the name.23:19
PerSeLjason_fn: there is 0 in the list23:19
thieven`jason_fn, how much ram do you have?23:19
eviljamesthieven`: what?  Suspend to disk?23:19
shcherbakuser: Looks ok, what do you want to do?23:19
eviljamesjason_fn: You do need swap, in certain circumstances.23:19
fluvvellDanny78, so is gaia the windows box?  There are no shares showing up23:19
Geekneeusjason_fn: is it in your /etc/fstab23:19
PerSeLuser: well it looks like working but it can work wrong or something if wrong driver is used23:20
jason_fnthieven` 2GB23:20
shcherbakjason_fn: man swapon23:20
jason_fnshcherbak, thx ))))23:20
Danny78fluvvell:  yes, gaia is win7 and I have music set to share23:20
usershcherbak, http://pastebin.mozilla.org/92231923:21
jason_fnPerSel, do u got smth NOT working, why sure u need those add. drivers?23:21
sg|rumpe1: I want to run my eggdrop and psybnc on reboot23:21
justaskwhich packet do i need for vncviewer? it suggests me 4 choices23:21
usersg|, use cron23:21
BernardVlestat: Mean? Me? ;)23:21
lestathehe23:22
PerSeLjason_fn: well cause when I run my laptop on bat. it take 30 min to finish them, in windows in 2-3h23:22
justaskPerSeL: so power management is not working23:22
sg|user: does cron check if the proccess is already running or not ?23:22
shcherbakuser: either setlocale or make /etc/default/locale with LANG="en_AU.UTF-8"23:22
BernardVsg|: Nope23:22
PerSeLjustask: why it's not working it tell me I'm unpluged23:23
justaskeven if on line?23:23
BernardVsg|: Sorry didn't see the user:23:23
Danny78fluvvell:  I have folder set to share, but since I can't add buddha or a buddha user, ??23:23
jason_fnPerSel, did u visit power management in sys menu? Actually, my linux system also works less in time than the windows one23:23
usersg|, you can write a line for it to check23:24
useryou can run any cmd on reboot with it, e.g. if it is in ps then not run it23:24
userit is bash scripting23:24
userbash cmd it can run on reboot23:24
userso you can add an 'if'23:24
sg|user: umm so i need to find an example script and modify it23:24
useryes23:25
PerSeLjason_fn: yes ofc I visited I can not use os at all just leave it unpluged and it takes just 30 min finish them23:25
justaskwhich package do i need for vncviewer? it suggests me 4 choices to install23:25
sg|user do you have one ?23:25
sg|:)23:25
mariusz_hej23:25
PerSeLjason_fn: so I thought first to check if the video card is set properly and so on23:25
shcherbakjustask: is it for linux only?23:25
edbiansg|: What are you trying to do?23:25
justaskyep23:25
useralso, why would you need to check whether your bot is running after reboot, if cron is the only way to start it? you usually just add it to startup, there is no reason for 2 bots to run then23:25
usersg|23:25
sg|edbian: try to run eggdrop and psybnc on restart23:25
justaski want to connect with remote desktop23:25
justaskor ssh23:25
justaskwhatever23:26
edbiansg|: Do you want them to run everytime?23:26
useryes23:26
edbianjustask: ssh userName@hostName   :)23:26
sg|edbian: yes23:26
usersee my last question,, sg|23:26
edbiansg|: Then just add them to System -> Admin -> Startup23:26
justaskedbian: even with ip address?23:26
edbianjustask: ip address works in place of hostname yes23:27
user... if you have gui, sg|, see what edbian said23:27
BernardVsg|: if ps -ef | grep -v grep | grep [commandname] (without []) ; then ...23:27
user:o23:27
sg|edbian: even the restart23:27
edbianjustask: in fact, if you put a hostname the first thing it does is resolve that name to an I.P. address23:27
justaskk23:27
shcherbakjustask: check what vnc server are you using, and pick similar client, but any should work.23:27
jason_fnPerSel, mmm, well, anyways, video card must not take that much more.23:27
edbiansg|: If you put a program in System -> Admin -> startup it will be run everytime the computer boots (or reboots)23:27
usershcherbak: -bash: setlocale: command not found23:27
sg|user I have a client who is running eggdrop and psybnc , when i restart the computer client process is also gone i want to run them again.23:28

shcherbakuser: one moment23:28
PerSeLjason_fn: anyway is that too hard to check which driver is set for my video card in ubuntu?23:28
AndroUserHi23:28
sg|edbian no gui :)23:28
jason_fnshcherbak, does swapon also apply to newly created swap? (installed system without swap)23:28
usershcherbak: Ok I made the  /etc/default/locale with LANG="en_AU.UTF-8" ; will see whether the error happens again. Thanks.23:28
sg|user to basic run thats all23:28
BernardVjason_fn: Yup23:28
edbiansg|: check out update-rc.d23:29
justaskedbian: i would like the client however23:29
justaskfor remote access23:29
jason_fnPerSel, nope, u just need a terminal command.23:29
edbianjustask: sudo apt-get install openssh-server   then you can ssh into the client machine as well23:29
fluvvellDanny78, same username on both machines?23:29
Dangr_Hd23:30
PerSeLjason_fn: which is?23:30
fluvvellDanny78, you've still got that space in your workgroup name23:30
jason_fnPerSel, try google it. u got ati or nvidia? if ati, u might try to install fglrx package23:30
Danny78fluvvell:  that's what I'm unsure of, but in Win I can only add my win name and that's not the same as my Ubuntu username23:30
usersg|, then have cron start them, add ' @reboot username path/to/bouncer ' to /etc/crontab ; no need to check whether it's already running, it will just quit itself when it finds that the port is already in use if someone else started it (which is unlikely by itself)23:30
PerSeLjason_fn: intel one23:30
fluvvellDanny78, add the windows user to your ubuntu machine.23:31
jason_fnPerSel, i don't exact one. actually sudo lspc could help but this command has long output23:31
jason_fnBernardV, thank ya :-)23:31
markturnipHow can I auto mount a external USB CD Drive?23:32
jason_fnPerSeL, the thing is most of intel card are supported by default open source drivers23:32
PerSeLsudo: lspc: command not found23:32
sg|how can i run program with another user rights ?23:32
Danny78fluvvell:  I removed the workgroup space and am creating user for windows23:32
fluvvellDanny78, I don't know your overall go, but simplicity in common usernames etc always helps23:33
fluvvell*goal23:33
rumpe1PerSeL, lspci23:33
milamber sg|: su <user>23:33
jason_fnPerSeL, so probably the problem is not in video card23:33

I have treid both ALSA and pulseaudio control something, none of the tricks from forums have worked so far.23:38
fluvvellDanny78, the top is the users name text, the bottom is the login name.23:38
Danny78fluvvell:  then that should work23:38
fluvvellDanny78, sounds confusing. I thought the winbox was called gaia?  you have a username gaia as well ?23:39
usershcherbak: /usr/sbin/dpkg-reconfigure: localeconf is not installed23:39

Danny78fluvvell: yeah that's fine, don't let me keep you23:40
shcherbakuser: still for ssh you can just create file with LANG23:40

huluohello! im looking for a way to remotely access a server graphically from the point of gdm on. vnc (vino-server) is only if youre already logged in and thus not what i look for. what is there to achieve this?23:41
shcherbakhuluo: in console (tty) xinit and ssh to server and startx23:43
Mouldy_Punkhey guys. I've set chromium as my default web browser, /etc/alternatives/x-www-browser  points to the right place and x-chat opens links in chromium - but evolution doesn't. It still tries to open links with firefox. Do you know how I can fix that behaviour? I'm using ubuntu 10.0423:44
edbianhuluo: Make sure the server has a graphical env installed at all.  There is not one by default23:44
StevenSJIs there a good text-to-speech program for Ubuntu?23:44
edbianMouldy_Punk: Did you look through the settings of evolution?  There might be something in there23:45
huluoedbian: its an ubuntu desktop version, i was working on it already. shcherbak: i dont understand. im looking for something as easy as vinagre+vino-server, just from gdm.23:45

Mouldy_Punkedbian, I had a quick look and didn't see anything related - but the preferences dialog isn't that great on a netbook screen - a lot of buttons and options get cut off due to the low resolution23:46

trismhuluo: http://flukylogs.blogspot.com/2009/11/setting-up-vnc-for-gdm-login.html , haven't tried it but seems like it should work, since it was updated for karmic, when we got gdm223:46
shcherbakhuluo: you can run whole gnome (anything) over ssh23:47
edbianMouldy_Punk: mhmm, I wouldn't be surprised if there were some settings somewhere about what to do with links in emails.  However without the gui I'm not sure you can change them.23:47
edbianMouldy_Punk: Technically to run gnome you're supposed to have a resolution of at least 1024/76823:47
edbian1024x76823:47
milamberhuluo: i don't see why startx wouldn't work23:47
huluotrism: xdmcp is over in ubuntu 10.1023:48
Mouldy_Punkedbian, Evolution ships as the default email client for the netbook edition - so in theory, it should fit :P23:48
huluoshcherbak: but with t23:48
Mouldy_Punkedbian, do you know of a gconf key i could change perhaps?23:48
huluoshcherbak: sry. but with what userrights? :o23:48
edbianMouldy_Punk: it should.  But I'm sure the evolution developers care more about a good email client than they do about fitting on every screen ever made.23:48
edbianMouldy_Punk: That's what I'm saying.  I don't think there is a gconf-key.  There might be.  gconf is huge23:49
huluomilamber: i dont know what commands i exactly would have to put in. i know how to login with ssh and start this or that command, but norhing more.23:49
Mouldy_Punkedbian, Thanks. I'll have a poke around gconf and see if I can find anything useful.23:49
edbianMouldy_Punk: good luck23:50
milamberhuluo: watch the video.23:50
huluomilamber: already have. i have run programs already, but not a whole de.23:51
Roasteddoes anybody else find ubuntu netbook remix to run kinda chunky on netbooks?23:52
justaskwhere do i find the boot choice timeout setting?23:52
Mouldy_PunkRoasted, chunky in that nothing fits on the screen or that it seems to be more resource intensive than the desktop variant? Yes on both counts in my experience23:52
milamberhuluo: try to run startx via the ssh command23:53
RoastedOddly its taking up very very few resources to run, but the actual interface is kinda slow and not seamless at all when running23:53
huluomilamber: sudo: no tty present and no askpass program specified23:53

thieven`do you still need to do gksudo when launching a program?   like gksudo gedit /etc/default/grub23:54
adv0cateif i upgrade my ubuntu to 10.10 will i loose my background, addons etc?23:55
thieven`adv0cate, short answer - no.   but what else are you worried about losing?23:55
markturnipWhen I insert my CD should it auto mount? - if so; where?23:55
markturnip(Using Ubuntu server)23:55
edbianthieven`: Only if you need to be root in order to run that command23:55
thieven`adv0cate, you can save your background pictures.23:55
edbianadv0cate: no23:55
milamberhuluo: if you have ssh installed can't you ssh into the box and start the server?23:56
thieven`edbian, what is it that the gk part does?23:56
adv0catethieven, will everything automatically be saved? and look the same like my docking station etc?23:56
edbianthieven`: sudo makes you root for the cli.  gksudo makes you root graphically23:56
thieven`adv0cate, i would say yes.23:56
edbianthieven`: It's the same idea just for different types of apps23:56

j2daoshis there a way to access a UNC path from the terminal?23:57
thieven`edbian, so what would happen if i didn't do the gk part of that?  seems nothing really happens.23:57
j2daoshordo I have to mount it before i can access a UNC23:57
thieven`j2daosh, what is it you want to access?23:57
huluomilamber: gdm is already running on the box, thus i guess the "server" is yet running too?23:57
j2daoshthieven`: a UNC samaba share on a newwork storage server23:58
edbianthieven`: I believe the difference is that the gksudo does not run the gui as root, only the underlying code (the important part).  If you ran sudo gedit than gedit's code and the code for the GUI is all root.  if you run gksudo gedit then the gui is still just you but the underlying code is run as root.23:58
edbianthieven`: It is proper to use sudo for CLI apps and gksudo for GUI apps23:58
thieven`j2daosh, you would have to mount it before you can access something in it.   you could combine the two commands into one though... like mount and then access this or that path.23:58
j2daoshthieven`: thats what i thought. crap. ok. thanks23:59
thieven`edbian, thanks for clarifing that edbian. i never understood that.23:59
thieven`j2daosh, you can access a path that is not mounted yet. think of it that way.23:59
