| glaceman | hey guys im trying to install google gadget, when i run the ./configure, i receive error: zlib is not available | 00:00 |
|---|---|---|
| thieven` | j2daosh, just like, i can't access directories on my mp3 player if it's not plugged in. (and mounted) | 00:00 |
| j2daosh | thieven`: yeah, thats what i figured, but I hoped there was a way to make my perl script access it without having to mount the share on the server | 00:00 |
| === bctrainerz is now known as bctrainers | ||
| thieven` | j2daosh, you of course could add a line in that script to make it mount before you access it. | 00:00 |
| j2daosh | thieven`: I would, but its not my server and I dont have the permissions to mount. I gotta have corporate do it then i can just access it since they won't trust me with those permissions ;) | 00:01 |
| glaceman | when installing google gadget i receive error when i do the ./configure: error zlib is not available but is mandatory | 00:02 |
| j2daosh | glaceman: sounds like your missing a compression library. | 00:03 |
| j2daosh | lemme reboot into linux and I'll see what i can do to help ya out | 00:03 |

| yugnoswam | Sorry. I am currently installing ubuntu onto my main computer via memory stick, I am on the desktop and have clicked the "Install Ubuntu 10.10", I have followed everything through and I am up to the "Who are you" section.

| ubuntu | justask are utalkin to me? | 00:12 |
| justask | yes | 00:12 |
| ubuntu | Im new to all this can u explain what OSS is :P? | 00:12 |
| justask | when you do sound config, you can choose between alsa and oss, and also for different drivers | 00:13 |
| ChrisDruif | yugnoswam: Don't worry, it's already a bug for the hundredpapercut's project :) | 00:13 |
| justask | tried that? | 00:13 |
| edbian | ubuntu: OSS is open source software. It's software where the source code is freely distributed | 00:13 |
| edbian | !sound > ubuntu | 00:13 |
| ubottu | ubuntu, please see my private message | 00:13 |
| justask | alsa is not? | 00:13 |

| justask | only english here | 00:15 |
| Jordan_U | justask: OSS can either mean Open Source Software or Open Sound System, depending on the context. | 00:15 |
| yugnoswam | On ubuntu, is it possible to have say Windows XPSP3 on the desktop where you can just open that in another window and use that as a second operating system? | 00:15 |
| Jordan_U | justask: ALSA is most certainly open source. | 00:15 |
| justask | yea, but alsa is not open? | 00:15 |

| m1chael | im having problems with apache.. i installed like this: sudo apt-get install apache2.2 # apachectl restart throws the error: /usr/sbin/apachectl: 148: /usr/sbin/apache2: not found ..... any ideas?? i'm on ubuntu 10.0.4 | 00:15 |
| hwilde | m1chael, type "which apache2" in the terminal what does it say? | 00:16 |
| justask | m1chael: is that a new version? | 00:16 |
| fr0nk_ | I'm recently having problems with pulseaudio, especially when I use vmware workstation and/or skype. When I killall pulseaudio && pulseaudio& it works again. This time I got the following Warning: W: alsa-mixer.c: Your kernel driver is broken: it reports a volume range from 0,00 dB to 0,00 dB which makes no sense. | 00:16 |
| bugs_bugger | hey guys. curious question: is it possible to create executable shellscript files from c sources? | 00:16 |
| WhatToDo | hi im having trouble with ubuntu 10.10 install ive been working with people on the IRC for two days now with no resolution. can anyone take a stab at it for me? | 00:16 |
| fr0nk_ | can anyone help please? :) | 00:17 |
| sha1sum | sooo... I have a friend who knows wtf he's doing but objects to using *nix because of gaming. It's been a while since I've messed with gaming stuff for linux. What's the new solution to windblows gaming? | 00:17 |
| hwilde | bugs_bugger, that's called compiling. | 00:17 |
| justask | whattodo did you try recovery mode at boot? | 00:17 |
| edbian | bugs_bugger: well sort of, you can write a program in c (source code) and make it executable. But it would not be called a script | 00:18 |
| WhatToDo | justask: i can't boot anything from had drive, all i have is a live ce | 00:18 |
| WhatToDo | cd | 00:18 |
| edbian | bugs_bugger: You can write executable scripts in other languages like python or bash | 00:18 |
| bugs_bugger | hwilde, nah, what i mean is: i want some kind of portable version, no copying to say /usr/bin but everything needed should be in in one folde | 00:18 |
| fr0nk_ | sha1sum: you mean how I play games on linux? Mostly with steam under wine or native ones, or ports that are being supported by the developers (humble bundle, etc) | 00:18 |
| justask | you cant boot, but you see grub menu or not? | 00:18 |
| hwilde | bugs_bugger, yes. | 00:19 |
| edbian | bugs_bugger: You can do something like that in python | 00:19 |
| sha1sum | fr0nk_: I tried that and his mouse has a weird offset... like you have to move your cursor down about 30px to click on what you want | 00:19 |
| edbian | bugs_bugger: But you would have to be in that folder to run that program | 00:19 |
| sha1sum | testing with starcraft II | 00:19 |
| fr0nk_ | anyone here already purged pulseaudio from lucid? pulseaudio simply doesnt work for me :/ | 00:19 |
| bugs_bugger | edbian, well, i dont that much about building apart from using ./configure, make and make install with c sources | 00:19 |
| fr0nk_ | sha1sum: multimonitor setup? | 00:20 |
| thieven` | fr0nk_, i did that once, turned out to be a bad idea. | 00:20 |
| thieven` | fr0nk_, have you done that? | 00:20 |
| sha1sum | fr0nk_: yeah... 3x1 | 00:20 |
| justask | to everyone: is it normal that a simple file copy from linux disk to ntfs one goes only at 20megs at second? | 00:20 |
| sha1sum | fr0nk_: ati card | 00:20 |
| bugs_bugger | edbian, what im aiming at is to have a form of binaries like those of the blender 3d suit, for example | 00:20 |
| justask | they are different drives too | 00:20 |
| edbian | bugs_bugger: What is the ultimate goal / purpose of this question? :) | 00:20 |
| edbian | bugs_bugger: A 'form | 00:20 |
| fr0nk_ | thieven`: I'm about to do it since pulseaudio has to be restarted approx 20 times a day | 00:20 |
| edbian | ? | 00:20 |
| m1chael | which apache2 # returns nothing | 00:20 |
| thieven` | justask, i have not noticed that. i doubt that is true.... | 00:21 |
| thieven` | fr0nk_, holy. that is nuts. yeah, go for it. you know you can always reinstall it if you have to... | 00:21 |
| justask | i can assure it did it so before | 00:21 |
| fr0nk_ | sha1sum: I've had this problem with nvidia and 2x1, try disabling multimonitor for troubleshooting, you should be fine. If this fixes your problem you'll have to fuck around with xinerama I guess | 00:21 |
| IdleOne | !language | 00:21 |
| ubottu | Please watch your language and topic to help keep this channel family-friendly, polite, and professional. | 00:21 |
| sha1sum | fr0nk_: hmmm ok thanks | 00:21 |
| justask | and i dont see what could be limiting that | 00:21 |
| thieven` | i can try writing a file to my ntfs usb key as a test if you wnat. | 00:21 |
| fr0nk_ | oh sry :D | 00:22 |
| justask | yeah but i said hdd to hdd | 00:22 |
| justask | usb key is slow | 00:22 |
| justask | like 10 megs maximum | 00:22 |
| edbian | bugs_bugger: what is a 'form | 00:22 |
| thieven` | justask, i have a ntfs partition but it's on the same hd as ubuntu... | 00:22 |
| justask | can you give a try? | 00:22 |
| fr0nk_ | justask: depends on the usb thumbnail drive. mine is getting approx 25mb/sec (corsair) | 00:22 |
| justask | ok you have a nice one | 00:22 |
| blixten | error: cannot execute /jail/glftpd/bin/glftpd: Exec format error. anyone know how to fix? i'm running a ppc64 with ubuntu 64 and that is a 32bit bin | 00:22 |
| thieven` | justask: it's writing to the same hd though. | 00:22 |
| justask | cheap ones dont get more than 9-10 | 00:23 |
| justask | yep | 00:23 |
| justask | so mine situation should be waay better | 00:23 |
| fr0nk_ | justask: the one im using in my car gets me like 2-3mb/sec. Its a pain in the... to copy music | 00:23 |
| justask | haha | 00:23 |
| thieven` | justask, how can i see the speed of the transfer? | 00:23 |
| bugs_bugger | edbian, they offer their linux versions in an archive that just needs upacking.it contains an executable ready to start. thats what i want to have | 00:23 |
| justask | i guess its very first generation | 00:23 |
| yugnoswam | On ubuntu, is it possible to have say Windows XPSP3 on the desktop where you can just open that in another window and use that as a second operating system? | 00:23 |
| markturnip | I'm using headless Ubuntu server, can anyone tell me if they know a way to run a script if an audio cd is found? | 00:23 |
| justask | mmm good question | 00:23 |
| fr0nk_ | no its a super tiny one, approx 2mm bigger than the usb connector plug itself | 00:24 |
| justask | in the notification windows you should click something to show up it | 00:24 |
| sha1sum | yugnoswam: virtual machine | 00:24 |
| bugs_bugger | edbian, problem is: i dont have sudo rights on the system. its a pool of my high school. | 00:24 |
| justask | or you just make the calculation taking the time and megs :-) | 00:24 |
| sha1sum | yugnoswam: use, say, virtualbox-ose | 00:24 |
| edbian | bugs_bugger: You want to write an app that works that way? All executabes can be run from wherever. | 00:24 |
| justask | like a very nerd one | 00:24 |
| thieven` | i see the little 'file transfer' window that shows it moving. but it doesn't say the speed. | 00:24 |
| justask | xd | 00:24 |
| yugnoswam | I'm sorry, what do you mean. | 00:24 |
| sha1sum | yugnoswam: you will need either (a) an XP install CD, or (b) an image of one | 00:25 |
| justask | tell me time and file size pls | 00:25 |
| edbian | bugs_bugger: You can compile and run software from inside you're home. You just can't install it. In this case installing really just means putting various files in various folders on the system. | 00:25 |
| edbian | bugs_bugger: It's just that most apps have to be installed to work at all | 00:25 |
| justask | if you use 100megs the calc is easier | 00:25 |
| yugnoswam | ok, I have the iso for windows 7 on my external. is that any use? | 00:25 |
| bugs_bugger | edbian, to which i dont have access to | 00:25 |
| justask | but my calculator wont bother :-) | 00:25 |
| justask | yep | 00:25 |
| sha1sum | yugnoswam: I run win (7, but XP with absolutely no problem) on a "virtual" machine, which is basically software that emulates a full pc | 00:26 |
| === topo is now known as Guest57961 | ||
| justask | try copying it elsewhere | 00:26 |
| justask | how big is that? | 00:26 |
| yugnoswam | ok, so how do I set that up may I ask? | 00:26 |
| sha1sum | yugnoswam: yeah... install the "vitualbox-ose" package | 00:26 |
| m1chael | what is the proper way to install apache? | 00:26 |
| sha1sum | yugnoswam: then it shows under accessories-->virtualbox ose | 00:26 |
| justask | you do a plain copy | 00:26 |
| edbian | bugs_bugger: Yeah, I understand. I think you can recreate the file tree you need inside you're home. | 00:26 |
| m1chael | i did: sudo apt-get install apache2.2 | 00:26 |
| justask | dont understand your question | 00:26 |
| edbian | bugs_bugger: I've never done it and it's elaborate but you can do it | 00:26 |

| Brack101 | Hey | 00:27 |
| Brack101 | do you have to configure openssh to allow port tunneling or does it work by default? | 00:27 |
| rww | Brack101: it allows it by default | 00:27 |
| justask | if there space on the external - assuming its ntfs - try from linux to that | 00:27 |
| justask | thank you | 00:27 |
| brontoeee | q: an explanation when user 'nobody' is supposed to be used and when not? | 00:27 |
| sha1sum | yugnoswam: once you create a virtual machine with you can mess around with its hardware settings, and if you go to the settings for the disc drive you can choose an ISO instead of a physical disc, or you can use the physical disc, your choice | 00:28 |
| d3cented | tell me the need in running winxp in virtualbox when running in win7? | 00:28 |
| sha1sum | -with | 00:28 |
| Brack101 | ok. openssh installs as part of the 'ssh' package right? | 00:28 |

| yugnoswam | ok cheers | 00:28 |

| justask | from hdd to hdd? slooow | 00:29 |
| thieven` | justask, yeah, this comuputer at work is old / slow / crappy. | 00:29 |
| justask | it cant be so slow | 00:29 |
| thieven` | justask, only one hd inside of it. | 00:29 |
| alexb_1 | hi all, how do I measure transfer speed to external hard drive?thanks. | 00:30 |
| justask | nevermind | 00:30 |
| thieven` | that was a 350MB file. | 00:30 |
| justask | should be at least 3-4 times | 00:30 |
| justask | faster | 00:30 |
| thieven` | yeah, i agree... | 00:30 |
| justask | me with different disk- only 20 megs | 00:30 |
| nit-wit | alexb_1, isn't there a popup when you transfer | 00:30 |
| thieven` | it took 42 seconds. for 350 MB | 00:30 |
| justask | the target is capable of at least 50 sustained megs/sec, its a wd RE3 | 00:30 |
| bugs_bugger | hwilde, do you happen to know how to build an "ELF 32-bit LSB executable" from source code. Thats what im aiming at: a "portable" executable with all required files and libs either linked or inside one folder | 00:31 |
| m1chael | http://dpaste.com/304762/ | 00:31 |
| thieven` | this is a crappy laptop with no doubt a 5400 rpm hd in it. | 00:31 |
| justask | 8.3 for sec :-( | 00:31 |
| justask | like a c64 | 00:31 |
| thieven` | hah | 00:31 |
| alexb_1 | yes, there is , but I guess it's not right way and very approximate | 00:31 |
| hwilde | bugs_bugger, did you check the forum there are threads on this topic | 00:31 |
| justask | yeah but you can figure out the average speed | 00:32 |
| jon_athon | cheers | 00:32 |
| justask | something is messing around...and i will find it :-D | 00:32 |
| bugs_bugger | hwilde, i searched for it via google. what terms do i need to search with? | 00:32 |
| d3cented | justask: good on you | 00:33 |
| bugs_bugger | hwilde, in the forums i mean | 00:33 |
| hwilde | bugs_bugger, i dunno man, try. | 00:33 |
| justask | just a mere hope though xd | 00:33 |
| bugs_bugger | hwilde, sorry pal. i just thought you knew there were some threads in specific. thanks anyway | 00:33 |
| hwilde | bugs_bugger, I mean it's probably a longer answer than you're gonna get here in chat, because there are entire threads about it. | 00:34 |
| === eoss_ is now known as eoss | ||
| justask | just for info: the inverse way - ntfs to linux - goes 35 megs'sec average | 00:35 |

| justask | which is quite fine indeed | 00:35 |
| eviljames | justask: That's about what I get from firewire external -> internal | 00:36 |

| pigy1_alt | went ubunto software center and search adobe flash and dont see it | 00:38 |
| d3cented | apt-cache search flash | 00:39 |
| justask | maybe flash is restricted sw? | 00:39 |
| d3cented | or so | 00:39 |
| trism | pigy1_alt: run: sudo apt-get install flashplugin-installer; in a terminal | 00:39 |
| d3cented | was my first thought | 00:39 |
| justask | that is restricted? | 00:39 |
| trism | it is in multiverse, but that should be enabled by default | 00:40 |
| d3cented | trism: beaten my apt-cache | 00:40 |
| justask | haha | 00:40 |
| justask | why apt-ache and not only apt-get? | 00:40 |
| IdleOne | trism: flash is in the Partner repo which needs to be enabled since 10.04 | 00:41 |
| justask | why apt-cache and not only apt-get? | 00:41 |
| d3cented | caus i didn't know exact name | 00:41 |

| guest101 | im trying to creaste a to boot from a usb 10.10 to use ubuntu on my uni computer, but it always goes back to default seeting,. is there a way of making one which persists with your settings, and keeps your files like a regualr install | 00:49 |
| yeats | MarkAng: looks like some of the gnome configuration got borked in the upgrade. You can try these older (but still valid) instructions on getting them back: http://linuxfud.wordpress.com/2007/02/14/how-to-reset-ubuntugnome-settings-to-defaults-without-re-installing/ | 00:49 |
| justask | even if it should be built in ubuntu | 00:49 |
| glaceman | rusty149: http://paste.ubuntu.com/552650/ | 00:50 |
| MarkAng | Thanks, yeats! I'll try that. | 00:50 |
| aleiex | justask: yes it worked, but one day i was using ubuntu, & I noticed that wallpaper & icons doesn't display, then firefox stopped & i rebooted | 00:50 |
| yeats | MarkAng: you might backup those dirs before rm -rf-ing them ;-) | 00:50 |
| aleiex | since that can't boot with hd direct conected to laptop | 00:50 |
| aleiex | only with external adapter | 00:50 |
| rusty149 | glaceman: Are you using Luxembourgish? | 00:51 |
| glaceman | rusty149: ubuntu 10.10 | 00:51 |
| justask | so it should be fine also as internal, maybe is just a detection issue | 00:51 |
| justask | tried with all sata ports? | 00:51 |
| rusty149 | glaceman: Luxembourgish language or english language? | 00:51 |
| glaceman | english | 00:51 |
| aleiex | justask is an laptop | 00:51 |
| Jordan_U | aleiex: Sounds like a hardware problem. | 00:51 |
| aleiex | only 1 port | 00:51 |

| glaceman | rusty149: i didn't do anything | 00:52 |
| aleiex | Jordan_U Is good idea to use laptop using External HD TO Boot? | 00:53 |
| Jordan_U | guest101: Same way you would install to an internal drive. | 00:53 |
| guest101 | however when i boot from usb it doesnt keep the configs or the files | 00:53 |
| guest101 | once i restart | 00:53 |
| justask | he told its not persistent install | 00:54 |
| ejv | how do i add space to my home group via lvm? | 00:54 |
| NixGeek | guest101: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LiveUsbPendrivePersistent | 00:54 |
| justask | eviljames: maybe its your field of knowledge - lvm | 00:55 |
| Jordan_U | aleiex: The only problem is that you have to be very carefull that the external doesn't get disconnected. Whether that's convienient for you and how you use your laptop I don't know. | 00:55 |
| nit-wit | guest101, how big is the thumb, and do you have a Ubuntu install or disc? | 00:55 |
| Jordan_U | NixGeek: That won't create a full install, for instance you can't upgrade the kernel. | 00:55 |

| justask | could also be that | 00:58 |
| rusty149 | glaceman: Try replaceing it with this http://paste.ubuntu.com/552653/ | 00:58 |
| nit-wit | guest101, boot the disc or the install and reload the thumb with the startup disc manager and use the persistence bar. | 00:58 |

| justask | so could be possible that after a reboot i see a full 11 release one? lol | 01:18 |
| cargile | how do i do that | 01:18 |
| NixGeek | justask: most people using ubuntu are hackers, we modify it to what we need, which is the definition of a "hacker"! | 01:19 |
| KM0201 | skullboy: an ext2 patch?... if she's sharing by samba, i don't think she'll need that | 01:19 |
| justask | yep | 01:19 |
| justask | quote that | 01:19 |
| hou5ton | Currently using Ubuntu 10.04 LTS - the Lucid Lynx, looking for knowledgable opinion regarding whether I should upgrade to latest. | 01:19 |
| share | this channel never sleeps. but i do | 01:19 |

| share | cya tomorow | 01:19 |
| cargile | i can see my shared folder but its not a folder its a file | 01:19 |
| KM0201 | hmm | 01:20 |
| justask | hou5ton: if you are fine with .04 stay there...my opinion | 01:20 |
| skullboy | KM0201: i must of misunderstood what he said i thought he was dual booting and wanted to access the ext4 part on windows | 01:20 |
| KM0201 | skullboy: or i misunderstood, i thought he was talking about using samba | 01:20 |
| cargile | i have somba installed | 01:21 |
| KM0201 | cargile: are you using wubi? | 01:21 |
| justask | so the easy way to link linux-windows is samba? | 01:21 |
| KM0201 | justask: yup. | 01:21 |
| hou5ton | justask: i think I'm good .... but I don't know what the newest version has to offer. | 01:21 |

| justask | installed...just seems odd they dont give it already installed | 01:46 |
| glaceman | KM0201: oh i see | 01:47 |
| glaceman | and what's the sudo apt-get upgrade for ? | 01:47 |
| KM0201 | glaceman: that checks the server to see if your system has any upgrades waiting | 01:47 |
| Bokkie | justask: that is a bit odd... | 01:47 |
| Bokkie | but, just having tested it, it's exactly what you need, methinks 8-) | 01:48 |

| glaceman | KM0201: im an IT manager, so for me now, switching for linux, it's like learning the abc again | 01:53 |
| KM0201 | glaceman: yeah, if i can make a suggestion... just learn to use the OS, get a feel for things, then when you have a basic unerstanding of everything, start looking into remote desktop, etc | 01:53 |
| glaceman | KM0201: ok | 01:54 |

| brMP | edbian: I did, when I try to install the boot helper from it I get an error also. | 02:23 |
| edbian | Scaly: so with usb keys? Try to see if apt-on-cd will let you put the packages on a usb key | 02:23 |

| master7808 | what are your thoughts on a site I designed for linux you can see it at linuxossolutions.com | 02:27 |
| edbian | glitchd: I can help you! :) What is the hostname of your computer? | 02:27 |
| Scaly | there's a physical issue with connecting it | 02:27 |
| glitchd | larch | 02:27 |
| KM0201 | edbian: lmao | 02:27 |
| edbian | Scaly: I see. Well then my only suggestion is to see what apt-on-cd will let you do | 02:27 |
| Scaly | are you sure I have to use cd or internet? | 02:27 |
| edbian | KM0201: ? | 02:27 |
| glitchd | edbian, larch | 02:27 |
| KM0201 | edbian: the way you said that, it madem e laugh | 02:27 |
| sha1sum | okay so found easily a vanilla debian ATI fglrx archive... any ubuntu-concentric one? | 02:28 |

| Scaly | cuz that's what im using atm | 02:28 |

| master7808 | Sure thanks http://linuxossolutions.com or http://sitesandroid.com | 02:30 |
| obfu | CSun: have you tried swapping the configs around to have a different physical card be #5? | 02:30 |
| sacarlson | CSun: no I don't know why you would have a problem with setup of static on 5 nic, maybe a conflict with network-manager? what method are you using to setup static? /etc/network/interfaces ? | 02:30 |
| master7808 | One is a redirect to the linuxossolutions thank you. I appreciate | 02:30 |
| Scaly | edbian | 02:30 |
| edbian | Scaly: | 02:31 |
| Scaly | where can i find it for usb? | 02:31 |
| CSun | sacarlson: not using network mgr. yes to etc/network/interfaces' | 02:31 |
| edbian | Scaly: find what for usb? | 02:31 |
| Scaly | and how do I install? I'm new to linux | 02:31 |

| Scaly | im on windows atm | 02:31 |
| Scaly | LAMP | 02:31 |
| CSun | obfu & sacarlson: thats why we were wondering if there is a "musical chair" effect with only 4 NICs in ubuntu server. | 02:31 |

| Boosh | I want to tail a log, look for some values with a regex, then output the text in the shell using a regex replace. That possible? | 02:32 |

| Scaly | yes | 02:32 |
| master7808 | Was the link fine ebian | 02:32 |
| edbian | Scaly: I believe all the packages are on there. Can you use that? | 02:33 |
| sacarlson | CSun: I would like to see the /etc/network/interfaces file, and also is network-manager still running? If so I would try stoping it | 02:33 |
| obfu | CSun: I imagine that most of the options being set int /etc/network/interfaces are the same aside from IPs, yes? | 02:33 |
| Scaly | alright, what's the terminal command or how can i find it? | 02:33 |
| glitchd | edbian, here is what u asked for, http://pastie.org/1447155 | 02:33 |
| edbian | glitchd: hang on | 02:33 |
| glitchd | edbian, indeed | 02:33 |
| CSun | sacarlson & obfu: hang on a sec. :) | 02:34 |
| edbian | Scaly: you have to add the CD as a repo. If you look at sudo nano /etc/apt/sources.list you should see it there at the top commented out. | 02:34 |
| master7808 | www.linuxossolutions.com/ sorry link resent | 02:34 |
| edbian | glitchd: change the bit that says Linbox to larch | 02:35 |

| jocrawfo | if so where can i find these files that have been downloaded to my machine? | 02:36 |

| jocrawfo | to the /var/cache/apt/archives/ directory | 02:39 |
| AnggaDj98 | ah | 02:40 |
| CSun | sacarlson: stand by. | 02:40 |
| jocrawfo | i would like to get the package from the repo download it to this machine and then scp it to another machine for installation | 02:40 |
| AnggaDj98 | you must state the location to save it | 02:40 |
| AnggaDj98 | like in a USB drive | 02:40 |
| AnggaDj98 | and move it to another machine | 02:40 |
| CSun | sacarlson: pastebin.com/Af1tvBhx | 02:41 |
| obfu | CSun: why are the nameservers config'd in interfaces rather than resolv.conf? | 02:41 |
| jocrawfo | AnggaDj98, you said -d so i did sudo apt-get install -d package-name | 02:41 |
| AnggaDj98 | hang on | 02:41 |
| CSun | obfu: that was done in setup out of the box. | 02:41 |
| sacarlson | CSun: I'm not sure but normaly I only see one auto line, it should look like auto eth0 eth1 eth2 eth3 eth4 lo, it may work both ways just never see it like this | 02:42 |
| zaery | is there an openoffice(or libreoffice) channel? | 02:42 |
| obfu | CSun: since it's the last interface dropping out, i would try removing, commenting, or moving the nameservers entry to resolv.conf | 02:42 |
| CSun | sacarlson: ok ill give that a go. back in a few mins | 02:42 |
| CSun | obfu: k, ill look into it in a sec | 02:43 |

| AnggaDj98 | update-manager? | 02:43 |
| jocrawfo | when I went to System -> About Ubuntu | 02:44 |
| AnggaDj98 | maybe you choose to upgrade automatically without asking you permissions | 02:44 |
| sacarlson | CSun: your route has 4 defaults is that what you really want? | 02:44 |
| jocrawfo | You are using Ubuntu 11.04 | 02:44 |

| jocrawfo | 02:44 | |
| jocrawfo | nope i didnt | 02:44 |
| obfu | CSun: seems to me that the last config (eth3 in the case you posted) is not parsing due to that last line | 02:45 |
| sacarlson | CSun: normaly you have subnets and one path to wan as the default | 02:45 |
| Scaly | Guys, how can I get the ubuntu install DVD as a repo? | 02:45 |
| jocrawfo | ah yea set to Normal Releases so I guess it did update to 11.04 whoops | 02:45 |

| AnggaDj98 | ... | 02:45 |

| xxthink | jsn, I use sshfs | 02:58 |
| obfu | sacarlson: I'm guessing that the NICs are going to different subnets based on what CSun posted, so the rest of the config should stay as is | 02:58 |
| KM0201 | zoke: beyond that, 10.04 doesn't use /boot/grub/menu.lst because thats for grub-legacy | 02:58 |

| edbian | M4rotku: Here is the thing. You're computers in your house have internal IP addresses. They are only valid on the inside of the router. To the outside Internet the router get's another IP address. This IP is the one used by all the computers in the house. The router translates back and forth for you | 03:11 |
| edbian | M4rotku: if you google your IP address you'll see the public one, the one that the internet sees as belonging to the router | 03:11 |
| shcherbak | M4rotku: you can setup multiple ssh servers on one router, whey need, however run on different ports, and your router need forwoard it. | 03:12 |
| M4rotku | shcherbak, how do i set up for my router to forward it? | 03:12 |
| === GodKiller is now known as Huang | ||
| edbian | M4rotku: you need to ssh to that address when you're sshing across the internet. Then you tell the router that when SSH packets come in, forward them to a specific address, that is, the address of the computer you're REALLY trying to get to | 03:12 |
| edbian | M4rotku: put the routers IP address in a web browser address bar on a computer inside the network | 03:13 |
| M4rotku | edbian, how on earth do i go about doing that? | 03:13 |
| shcherbak | M4rotku: log in to router, and find application sharing, or dzm (not recommended) | 03:13 |
| edbian | M4rotku: it's called forwarding :) | 03:13 |

| M4rotku | edbian, i've never seen anything in here re forwarding. can all routers do it? | 03:14 |
| shcherbak | M4rotku: it is written on the back of your router. | 03:14 |

| edbian | M4rotku: I suspect you're in the router. What brand is the router? What brand is the page you're viewing? | 03:17 |
| DaGeek247 | Curly_Q many routers have small intenal ip differences. mine is: 192.168.1.1. it may work. | 03:17 |
| Curly_Q | DaGeek247 true, but in most cases 0.1 is the default. Most IP provided routers is 0.100 | 03:18 |
| M4rotku | the page i'm viewing is sbc, the router is belkin | 03:18 |

| edbian | Danny78: If you're mounting a file system that doesn't have user permissions (like old ntfs and such) then every file will inherit the permissions of the folder the whole thing is mounted in | 03:24 |

| edbian | mbvpixies78: Are these linux permissions or something else? | 03:28 |
| M4rotku | rusty149, that looks like it might be it | 03:28 |

| edbian | mbvpixies78: I have no idea how windows file permissions work. :) sorry! :/ | 03:29 |
| mbvpixies78 | edbian: but also the uid and gid in fstab for mounting those shares at bootup | 03:29 |

| edbian | rusty149: he is | 03:33 |
| eoss | typically UDP is used for audio/video/telephony because its faster, the downside is it does not guarantee packet transfer | 03:33 |

| edbian | M4rotku: what did you put as the IP addresS? How are you testing it? | 03:35 |
| mbvpixies78 | rusty149: I need to set uid and gid in fstab for my two win7 shares | 03:35 |
| ddilinger | edbian: no CD drives, or USB sticks. To install i was going to tftp boot it, but thats prob alot of work if its not going to work | 03:35 |
| edbian | ddilinger: make the live CD and run it. See how it works. That's better than some list | 03:35 |
| M4rotku | i put my global ip adress and i'm testing it from my laptop trying to access my server | 03:35 |
| rusty149 | mbvpixies78: post your fstab file in a paste.ubuntu.com | 03:35 |
| edbian | ddilinger: oh man, IDK where you can find a list like that | 03:35 |
| M4rotku | edbian, using the same username@ip format | 03:36 |
| ddilinger | edbian: its ok, thanks for the poiters, i might just go straight for the install | 03:36 |
| frutto | ddilinger: have you considred unetbootin (assuming there's an OS in place) ? | 03:36 |
| edbian | M4rotku: what Ip address? | 03:36 |
| === kthomas is now known as 13WAAZZ3D | ||
| ddilinger | frutto: i hadn't, i'll look into that | 03:36 |
| maco | ddilinger: i know you can pxe boot to do an install | 03:36 |
| The_Explorer | another question in relevance to Ubuntu alone, Is there a program that would allow me to pause filesystem activies (such as copying very large files) mid transfer, or allows me to queue transfers, for it seems as now to be rather unintelligent in attempting to complete both tasks simultanously causing trashes between two distant sectors and slowing transfer overall | 03:36 |
| edbian | M4rotku: 68.73.98.190 | 03:36 |
| M4rotku | edbian, the one that the showmyip site game me, i checked several sites and they all told me the same | 03:37 |
| M4rotku | edbian, yes, that one | 03:37 |
| edbian | M4rotku: It worked for me a second ago :) | 03:37 |
| lolcat | The_Explorer: Use sftp | 03:37 |
| shcherbak | lol | 03:37 |
| M4rotku | edbian, haha | 03:37 |
| ddilinger | maco: i think the tftp stuff i was thinking of is the same as PXE, i've done it once before for a netbook and still have the directory structure in place, i'm praying i just turn it on and it works :) | 03:37 |

| wolter | hi, what bluetooth related application has an icon of a blue piramid with circular waves been emitted from its tip? | 03:38 |
| daze21_ | I use Ubuntu 10.04 on my compaq presario C300 (yeah, it's, old... :/ ). While using it, a popup appeared saying there were many updates for my ubuntu install. So I updated.. and then I was asked to restart, which I did. Now the problem: I initially get a screen of the OS's installed on this system. I would first select (1) "Microsoft Windows XP Home Edition", then choose (2) "Ubuntu" and then choose (3) "Ubuntu + [some stuff abou | 03:38 |
| M4rotku | edbian, it doesn't work though | 03:38 |
| === richard is now known as Guest8390 | ||
| edbian | M4rotku: I assure you, it does | 03:38 |
| daze21_ | So I can't use Ubuntu anymore! | 03:38 |
| edbian | M4rotku: the port forwarding does anyway... | 03:38 |
| daze21_ | The windows OS works fine though.... I have no idea what's going on... | 03:38 |
| M4rotku | edbian, how do you know, did you ping me or something? | 03:39 |
| daze21_ | Is there a way to undo those blasted updates? | 03:39 |
| The_Explorer | <lolcat> sftp is a more intelligent local drive protical | 03:39 |
| The_Explorer | ?? | 03:39 |
| frutto | daze21_: your message got cut off after ""Ubuntu + [some" | 03:39 |
| daze21_ | ohh | 03:39 |
| edbian | M4rotku: I tried to log into your server. I didn't put in a user or password but I gave the command and it asks me for both. It is def getting to a computer | 03:39 |
| frutto | daze21_: but it looks like you'll have to fix something in grub via livecd | 03:39 |
| daze21_ | (3) "Ubuntu + [some stuff about the kernel]".. but after I click (2), I go right back to the first screen | 03:39 |
| The_Explorer | <lolcat> was a question, forgot punctuation | 03:39 |
| daze21_ | frutto: I got ubuntu via some download online... I dn't have a cd... | 03:40 |
| daze21_ | *don't | 03:40 |
| M4rotku | edbian, hmm, interesting. i'll try it without sending the username to begin with | 03:40 |
| edbian | M4rotku: sure | 03:40 |
| KM0201 | daze21: you used wubi? | 03:40 |
| shcherbak | M4rotku: your ssh is up and running | 03:40 |
| daze21_ | KM0201: yeah I think so | 03:40 |
| edbian | ssh 68.73.98.190 works | 03:40 |
| ddilinger | what would be the best ISO to feed into unetbootin? i need to download it seperatly so i can use a parallel downloader(comcast fsck's with my inet, 100kB/s downloads with 1 connection, 2mB/s with 40) | 03:40 |
| M4rotku | edbian, it's still refusing my connection | 03:40 |
| rusty149 | mbvpixies78: I didn't know it was a smb. you do not need uid and gid there | 03:40 |
| rusty149 | mbvpixies78: Can you access it? | 03:41 |
| dougb | is there a way to revert the way ubuntu installs software? the ubuntu software center takes forever it seems like | 03:41 |
| KM0201 | daze21: honestly, since you're able to boot Windows, i would immediately uninstall wubi... usually "upgrading" wubi, will wreck things(thats been my experience) | 03:41 |
| edbian | M4rotku: can't you even get into your own server! haah what is it saying? | 03:41 |
| M4rotku | edbian, http://pastebin.com/iwMKdVA8 | 03:41 |
| daze21_ | KM0201: whoa okay. how would I do that? | 03:41 |
| M4rotku | see | 03:41 |
| mbvpixies78 | rusty149: yes, I can access it, so uid and gid are just for linux shares? | 03:41 |
| frutto | wubi messes with grub, ubuntu updates mess with grub ... | 03:41 |
| M4rotku | edbian, i'm logged into the server via other means, so i'm still here | 03:41 |
| KM0201 | daze21_: control panel would be my guess. | 03:41 |
| daze21_ | frutto: wow didn't know that! thanks... so basically DON'T UPDATE... :/ | 03:42 |
| frutto | ddilinger: ultimately the same one you'd use to install it "for real" | 03:42 |
| edbian | M4rotku: I think maybe you're router is blocking you on the way out... | 03:42 |
| daze21_ | KM0201: control panel after booting up my computer in Windows? | 03:42 |
| shcherbak | M4rotku: I just connected to your ssh. What IP are you using? | 03:42 |
| edbian | shcherbak: look at his pastebin | 03:42 |
| frutto | daze21_: or rather don't use wubi for extended periods of time (i.e. not for testing) | 03:42 |
| rusty149 | mbvpixies78: There are for certain local filesystems like ntfs. Of coarse, samba has uid's but there are determined by the server | 03:42 |
| M4rotku | edbian, that could be it | 03:42 |
| KB1LQC | hey im having problems with NVIDIA and Ubuntu 10.10. How can I specify the grub startup commands? I am not presented with grub with this install during startup | 03:42 |
| edbian | M4rotku: I'm afraid I can't help you with that. I don't have a belkin router. I can assure you your port forwarding and ssh server is working | 03:43 |

| M4rotku | edbian, well, i guess there is no reason why i would have to access it from my house anyways | 03:43 |
| edbian | M4rotku: You could just use the internal IP address :) | 03:43 |
| wolter | can I poll the notification area for the shown icons? | 03:44 |
| M4rotku | edbian, yes, that's what i'll do, but the whole point of this is to help me walk a complete noob through allowing me to access his computer, which will be running sysresccd, so that i can scan his computer for viruses | 03:44 |
| CrazyH | Ubuntu Jaunty. I have Keyboard shortcut options for desktop 1 and desktop 2 (I actually have 8 virtual desktops). Why are the other desktops missing form the keyboard shortcut menu? How can I set these hot keys? | 03:44 |

| zvrk | M4rotku, your router is setup to dhcp | 03:45 |
| daze21_ | okay... so I shouldn't use wubi? | 03:45 |
| edbian | M4rotku: who's the noob? | 03:45 |
| M4rotku | edbian, i mean more of one than myself. trust me, this guy thinks i'm a computer genius. he's never used linux | 03:45 |
| M4rotku | zvrk, yes | 03:45 |
| edbian | M4rotku: hahaha, I didn't mean to call you a noob. I couldn't resist | 03:45 |
| edbian | !noob | 03:45 |
| ubottu | Acronyms or statements like noob, jfgi, stfu, or rtfm are not welcome in this channel. Period. | 03:45 |
| daze21_ | well, if the only issue with wubi is that it messes with updates, why don't I just NOT update so I don't face this problem again? | 03:46 |
| M4rotku | lol | 03:46 |

| mbvpixies78 | rusty149: when I try to mount my windows shares using fstab, they won't mount, even though I can mount them manually through "Places" | 03:46 |
| M4rotku | edbian, don't worry. i'm not offended after having to be walked through accessing my own router | 03:46 |
| zvrk | M4rotku, your internet connection are? | 03:46 |
| edbian | M4rotku: It might change the address of the ssh server eventually then the forwarding you set up won't be right anymore | 03:46 |
| frutto | daze21_: that's a bit beyond the scope of your real question at hand (i.e. how to get everything back), but not doing updates is not being secure :) | 03:46 |

| mbvpixies78 | bonjoyee: yes | 03:47 |
| zvrk | M4rotku, like adsl cable or dial up | 03:47 |
| daze21_ | If wubi is unstable.... :/ | 03:47 |
| bonjoyee | mbvpixies78: then what is the error? | 03:47 |
| mbvpixies78 | mount error(111): Connection refused | 03:47 |
| mbvpixies78 | Refer to the mount.cifs(8) manual page | 03:47 |
| mbvpixies78 | bonjoyee: but as I say, I can mount and browse in the GUI | 03:48 |

| CaneToad | ARRRRRGGH I am finding that my 10.10 desktop locks up every couple hours and I have to press CTRL-ALT-BACKSPACE and restart X as a result.... the desktop is useable in the sense that the mouse moves and ALT-TAB works between apps, but no windows can be dragged, and focus between windows does not change at all when you click on a window. There's nothing wrong with my mouse. Maybe it is some nvidia graphics issue, I've no idea | 03:49 |
| daze21_ | -shrugs- any recommendations about what to do? I just got the wireless driver working... man I shouldn't have updated... I really just wanted to try this outtt .... :( | 03:50 |
| rusty149 | mbvpixies78: It can be read by other local users | 03:50 |
| daze21_ | is wubi really a bad installer>? | 03:50 |
| shcherbak | M4rotku: if i can connect and you not, means that you did something wrong. | 03:50 |
| meway | I will go with server edition or w/e but my concern is the cpu being so small. and the os | 03:50 |
| mbvpixies78 | rusty149: ok, I get what you're saying now-- I wondered about that but figured I'd get it working first *shrugs* | 03:50 |

| maco | daze21_: updates breaking wubi is not unheardof, what with its odd way of installing inside an image inside windows and then convincing the bootloader to load it from an image (normally its from an actual partition) | 03:51 |
| Blueleaf1 | daze21 i haven't used a nix system in 10 years, recently decided to come back from the dark side. | 03:52 |
| daze21_ | maco: so... what should I do? I just wanted to work on Ubuntu for some Rails development up till the time I get a new laptop (a few months down the line) | 03:52 |
| daze21_ | and now that it stopped working due to those blasted updates.... | 03:52 |

| daze21_ | Blueleaf1: yeah I had that issue... what's your exact system name? | 03:53 |

| rusty149 | mbvpixies78: no, sudo chmod 600 ~/.smbcredentials | 03:53 |

| DW_Upstairs | bonjoyee: Endless series of "DHCPDISCOVER on eth0 to 255.255.255.255 port 67 interval X", with X increasing with each subsequent attempt | 03:54 |
| daze21_ | like, mine's compaq presario c300... look on it.. it must be written somewhere... | 03:54 |
| maco | daze21_: it just means having multiple OSes installed on the disk. normally this means partitioning the disk (making different sections for each OS), which wubi attempts to avoid. the installer offers it in the guided partitioning | 03:54 |
| Blueleaf1 | i have a toshiba harman/kardon laptop | 03:54 |
| edbian | DW_Upstairs: something is wrong with the DHCP server | 03:54 |

| Northwoods | what is APT ? | 03:54 |
| meway | DW_Upstairs, try plugging the computer directly to the router instead of the switch and than plugging it back into the switch after it has obtained an IP? | 03:54 |
| bonjoyee | DW_Upstairs: hope you can ping the router? | 03:54 |
| Northwoods | i mean what is it used for ? | 03:54 |
| edbian | Northwoods: apt is a package manager | 03:55 |
| CrazyH | Northwoods: Advanced Package Tool | 03:55 |
| Northwoods | edbian: used for ? | 03:55 |
| DW_Upstairs | meway: Not really an option. The machines are in different rooms. | 03:55 |
| mbvpixies78 | rusty149: so what should I remove from fstab? uid, guid, user and pass and leave the rest? | 03:55 |
| edbian | Northwoods: apt-get is used to install packages (software from repos) | 03:55 |
| meway | DW_Upstairs, move it | 03:55 |
| ddilinger | Northwoods: its like the app store for phones, except the software is free and its been out for years and years | 03:55 |
| DW_Upstairs | The router is downstairs in the front room; Right now I'm upstairs in the back room | 03:55 |
| meway | DW_Upstairs, and than move it back | 03:55 |
| CrazyH | Northwoods: it is used manage software packages. install, remove, upgrade | 03:55 |
| CrazyH | *to | 03:55 |
| daze21_ | blueleaf1: well I found this site http://www.linlap.com/wiki/hp-compaq+presario+c300 which explained how to resolve my issue. search around there for your system, and see if it needs certain wireless drivers or something. | 03:55 |
| DW_Upstairs | Did I mention the Ubuntu system involved is a desktop and has no battery? | 03:55 |
| Northwoods | CrazyH: thanks | 03:55 |
| edbian | DW_Upstairs: Your nick is very literal | 03:56 |
| DW_Upstairs | Yup | 03:56 |
| meway | DW_Upstairs, trust me it will turn back on | 03:56 |

| meway | :p | 03:56 |
| Northwoods | CrazyH: there are 2 types of pacakages , binary and soruce files , what is difference ? | 03:56 |
| Blueleaf1 | will do. thanks. | 03:56 |
| DW_Upstairs | I can log in to the web interface of the DHCP server (actually a wireless router) from this laptop. | 03:56 |

| edbian | Northwoods: binaries are compiled source files | 03:57 |
| DW_Upstairs | This laptop has no Wifi btw, it's connected to the same switch as the Ubuntu machine with CAT5 | 03:57 |
| meway | DW_Upstairs, from the ubuntu fresh installed? | 03:57 |
| maco | Northwoods: source have the actual code. they get turned into binary packages which then have installable files | 03:57 |
| edbian | Northwoods: You can run a binary, you can view a source file (it is code after all) | 03:57 |
| DW_Upstairs | meway: Yeah. It wouldn't even get an IP during the installation process | 03:57 |
| bullgard4 | Banshee 1.8.0 requests: "Please move your music to /home/<my_username>/Musik". My music collection is on an external USB hard drive. How can I comply in order to be able to use Banshee? | 03:57 |
| daze21_ | so... do most people use Ubuntu as... what? their main linux distribution? not in conjunction with windows and all this stuff? | 03:57 |
| edbian | DW_Upstairs: it's a bad cable? | 03:57 |
| meway | DW_Upstairs, does the windows machine give you an issue with two machines getting the same IP? | 03:57 |
| wolter | need help with my bluetooth, file is stuck receiving at 29% | 03:57 |

| maco | bullgard4: rmdir ~/Musik && ln -s /mnt/external/drive/music /home/user/Musik | 03:58 |
| mbvpixies78 | bonjoyee: sorry, I missed your suggestion, let me see what happens | 03:58 |
| DW_Upstairs | edbian: I've tried about three cables, none of them work | 03:58 |
| CrazyH | Northwoods: yeah... binaries are source code that was compiled for your specific platform. source files are source code that you can compile yourself, or modify if you want to | 03:58 |
| edbian | daze21_: I think most people use Ubuntu all alone. Many also use it dual boot with windows | 03:58 |
| Northwoods | so basically APT can be used to install both source and binray files ? | 03:58 |
| DW_Upstairs | meway: Not sure what you're asking. | 03:58 |
| edbian | Northwoods: yes | 03:58 |
| maco | Northwoods: no. you cant install source files | 03:58 |
| CrazyH | Northwoods: yeah. Sometimes you'll use it to get source code that you need to compile something | 03:58 |

| meway | DW_Upstairs, unplug your switch take out the input and stick it in the machine. obtain an IP. Plug the switch back in. Than plug the internet back into the switch | 03:58 |
| daze21_ | edbian: so probably not from this wubi installer? I mean, if this installer can bring such major issues as the inability to upgrade.... why use it? should I just wait to get a linux laptop? | 03:58 |
| CrazyH | Northwoods: most of the time you'll just use it to install binaries + all of their dependencies | 03:59 |
| rusty149 | mbvpixies78: replace [user name] with your username | 03:59 |
| bullgard4 | maco: I will try. | 03:59 |
| DW_Upstairs | meway: Worth a shot I suppose. Gonna lose connection while I do that, of course. | 03:59 |
| maco | daze21_: most people who use ubuntu & windows on the same machine probably still partition it | 03:59 |
| Northwoods | CrazyH: Thankyou got it | 03:59 |
| meway | DW_Upstairs, its ok you know where to finds us :) | 03:59 |
| Northwoods | Thankyou all ! | 03:59 |
| edbian | daze21_: Just install Ubuntu proper on the laptop you have. Wubi is the easiest way to install. I don't think though that a normal install is hard | 03:59 |
| daze21_ | Okay. Hmm.. how much memory does it cost to partition, maco? | 03:59 |
| maco | daze21_: thats the tried-and-true method for having more than one OS thats been in use for at least a decade. wubi's only been around for like...3 years or so | 03:59 |
| edbian | Northwoods: yep :) | 03:59 |
| maco | daze21_: no memory | 03:59 |
| maco | daze21_: you decide how much disk space goes to each OS | 04:00 |
| edbian | daze21_: You can tell the partition to be as big or as small as you want. | 04:00 |
| meway | how much cpu does ubuntu server edition take? | 04:00 |
| Northwoods | one more question sorry , to check installed lamp things , like php apache , can i use APT , someone told me apt-cache policy php , what is policy for and how can i use APT to view existing installed pacakages ? | 04:00 |
| edbian | meway: about 2 Gb of HDD space | 04:01 |
| daze21_ | so, should I partition or should I just use the wubi installer? I mean, I think I'd like to use wubi and just be careful not to upgrade at all. You did say it was the easiest way to install... this, plus the fact that I'll probably use it just to code for a few months in Rails... then later I'll get a linux laptop... | 04:01 |
| daze21_ | How does that sound? Or do you strongly recommend partitioning? | 04:01 |
| meway | edbian, cpu | 04:01 |
| edbian | Northwoods: apt-get show <packageName> will show you stuff about it. | 04:01 |
| Saqirilt | hello everybody | 04:01 |
| edbian | meway: It depend on what the server is doing. The OS idling is obviously very very light on CPU usage | 04:01 |
| meway | edbian, it only has 933 mhz | 04:02 |
| meway | suggestions? | 04:02 |
| maco | daze21_: i dont think theres much difference in ease between the two. main difference i remember is that you have to burn a cd to do a normal install | 04:02 |
| edbian | meway: That's enough :) server has no graphics so you won't even notice | 04:02 |
| daze21_ | maco: normal install... you mean partition or no? | 04:02 |
| edbian | Northwoods: sorry, aptitude show <packageName> | 04:02 |
| maco | daze21_: doesnt matter... a non-wubi install requires you to burn a cd | 04:03 |
| edbian | Northwoods: aptitude is another package manager tool, very similar to apt, it does slightly more (like the show command) | 04:03 |
| meway | edbian, how do I make a disk from ubuntu I only made it from windows. | 04:03 |
| maco | daze21_: look here http://sazeit.com/articles/sites/default/files/images/install-step4bsm.png | 04:03 |
| rusty149 | daze21_:I think you would have less problems with a partition install, myself | 04:04 |
| maco | daze21_: see how they selected "install them side by side" and then below that its got a slider to set how much of the disk goes to each OS? | 04:04 |
| edbian | meway: use brasero or gnome-baker | 04:04 |
| daze21_ | uh-huh... | 04:04 |
| edbian | meway: Whatever the cd burner that is installed by default is can burn ISOs. Just make sure you choose burn disk image or burn ISO | 04:04 |
| meway | edbian, o.o I have not used ubuntu that long so don't mind me if I get lost ^_^ | 04:05 |
| maco | daze21_: thats one step...others are user/password choosing, timezone setting, language setting, picking keyboard layout... | 04:05 |
| edbian | meway: no worries :) | 04:05 |
| daze21_ | rusty149: so a partition install is better for the long-run, apparently. Does wubi have many other issues - other than the updating one? | 04:05 |
| Northwoods | edbian: i did aptitude show php | 04:05 |
| === mago_ is now known as DirtySanchez | ||
| edbian | Northwoods: uh-huh | 04:05 |
| meway | its a dvd burner so I'm sure I won't have any issues there | 04:05 |
| edbian | Northwoods: aptitude show php5 | 04:06 |
| edbian | meway: :) | 04:06 |
| * meway has to wait 20m for it to download | 04:06 | |
| rusty149 | daze21_: not sure, look at the list of bugs online | 04:06 |
| Northwoods | thanks | 04:06 |
| edbian | Northwoods: sure | 04:06 |
| dougb | has anyone else had problems with HP laptops and playing 3D games? whenever I play them my audio levels seem to go up and down | 04:06 |
| Chilaquiles | hey how can make ubuntu to log in without asking for a password? | 04:06 |
| edbian | Chilaquiles: System -> Admin -> Login -> auto Login | 04:06 |
| Chilaquiles | like log in automatically without asking for password | 04:07 |
| daze21_ | quite the dilemma.... | 04:07 |
| Chilaquiles | ok let me check that up | 04:07 |
| edbian | Chilaquiles: that was from memory (not that I'm bragging) | 04:07 |
| DBoyz | rusty149: your method didn't work | 04:07 |
| meway | edbian, I found the instructions on the site so I hope I get it right XD | 04:07 |
| rusty149 | DBoyz: sorry, what method? | 04:07 |
| edbian | meway: I'm here if you have more questions | 04:08 |
| meway | k | 04:08 |
| DW_VirginMediaSu | I get the sudden, horrible feeling I know what the problem was, and it's stupid. On my part. | 04:08 |
| Chilaquiles | edbian: autologin? or log in as **** automatically? | 04:08 |
| Chilaquiles | I assume is the same lol | 04:08 |
| edbian | Chilaquiles: I stand corrected :) | 04:08 |
| DW_VirginMediaSu | (DW_Upstairs again, shoulda disconnected from IRC before I started unplugging cables) | 04:08 |
| DBoyz | rusty149: using try unlisted linux iso (new syslinux) on pendrivelinux | 04:08 |
| === DW_VirginMediaSu is now known as DW_Upstairs | ||
| rusty149 | DBoyz: Did you see the alternate install screen? | 04:09 |
| meway | DW_Upstairs, so did you fix it? | 04:09 |
| DBoyz | rusty149: NO only a blinking underscore | 04:10 |
| DW_Upstairs | meway: SOmewhat: I tried a DIFFERENT switch. And it's working. | 04:10 |
| Northwoods | is there a way to copy a line from terminal window with keyboard , without using mouse ? | 04:10 |
| Chilaquiles | hey how can I view the desktop in a 3d cube? | 04:10 |
| edbian | Northwoods: ctrl+shift+c I believe | 04:10 |
| Northwoods | thankyou | 04:10 |
| edbian | Northwoods: using shift to highlight it of course | 04:10 |
| meway | DW_Upstairs, I only have one switch so if its not working I'm in trouble :) | 04:11 |
| rusty149 | DBoyz: Did you see the Ubuntu logo and some options below? | 04:11 |
| Northwoods | edbian: shift isnt' working | 04:11 |
| Northwoods | it prints some strange char on terminal window | 04:11 |
| DBoyz | rusty149: not at all | 04:11 |
| edbian | Northwoods: I was afraid of that. I don't remember | 04:11 |
| landonwo | I'm trying to change the default page on my apache server to be something else instead of index.html, what config file is that in and where is it located? | 04:11 |
| edbian | Northwoods: is this on a CLI server or something? Where are you trying to paste it? | 04:11 |
| DW_Upstairs | It's official. I'm a fucktard. | 04:11 |
| Chilaquiles | hey how can I view the desktop in a 3d cube? | 04:11 |
| edbian | Chilaquiles: sudo apt-get install simple-ccsm | 04:12 |
| edbian | Chilaquiles: You use that app to turn the cube on and off :) | 04:12 |
| Northwoods | i'm trying to copy it from terminal window , so that i can paste on kvirc | 04:12 |
| edbian | DW_Upstairs: I hope not! | 04:12 |
| DW_Upstairs | The first switch I was using wasn't technically a switch; It was a wireless router set up to act as an access point. | 04:12 |
| edbian | Northwoods: Why not use the mouse? | 04:12 |
| Chilaquiles | edbian is that true that I can use compiz to do that? | 04:12 |
| rusty149 | daze21_: Are you sure you have set the BIOS to boot the USB stick? | 04:12 |
| edbian | Chilaquiles: yes | 04:12 |
| Northwoods | edbian :) | 04:12 |
| Northwoods | ok | 04:12 |
| edbian | Chilaquiles: I'm doing it right now | 04:12 |
| DW_Upstairs | However, the MAC address list is still used to filter clients connected to the RJ45 ports | 04:12 |
| edbian | Northwoods: :) | 04:12 |
| daze21_ | rusty149: I have no idea. | 04:12 |
| mbvpixies78 | rusty149: I rebooted and they didn't mount... I need to try to mount manually command line to see what works | 04:12 |
| DW_Upstairs | This laptop is on that router's access list | 04:12 |
| DW_Upstairs | The Ubuntu machine was not | 04:12 |
| DW_Upstairs | Now it is, and all is well. | 04:13 |
| rusty149 | daze21_:sorry wrong person | 04:13 |
| DW_Upstairs | So: I'm a fucktard. | 04:13 |
| Chilaquiles | ok , so what keys do I need to press to do that? | 04:13 |
| Chilaquiles | edbian? | 04:13 |
| edbian | Chilaquiles: did you install the app? and turn on the cube? | 04:13 |
| landonwo | Can anyone tell me how to change the default page in apache2? I want it to be something different than index.html | 04:13 |
| Chilaquiles | yes I did edbian | 04:13 |
| stealthc | k trying to get uuid of my thumbdrive and neither method found on this page is working: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=349376 | 04:13 |
| edbian | Chilaquiles: ctrl + alt + left, ctrl + alt + right | 04:13 |
| rusty149 | Are you sure you have set the BIOS to boot the USB stick?DBoyz: | 04:13 |
| stealthc | oh that is dumb I forgot sudo | 04:13 |
| stealthc | nvm | 04:13 |
| edbian | Chilaquiles: or put the mouse on the desktop and scroll | 04:13 |
| DBoyz | YES | 04:14 |
| edbian | Chilaquiles: or ctrl + alt + click the left mouse button (and hold it) and move the mouse around | 04:14 |
| meway | DW_Upstairs, well in that case I was just trying to make you feel better I have 3 routers and 1 switch :p | 04:14 |
| dougb | is anyone here running ubuntu on an HP notebook with an i3 processor and integrated graphics? | 04:14 |
| meway | 1 private network :) | 04:14 |
| DW_Upstairs | Sorta matched you... I've got two routers and two switches | 04:14 |
| rusty149 | DBoyz: Haave you checked the md5sum? | 04:14 |
| stealthc | ok how do I use the uuid to find the mount point of the drive? | 04:14 |
| landonwo | Can anyone tell me how to change the default page in apache2? I want it to be something different than index.html | 04:15 |
| DBoyz | hang on | 04:15 |
| meway | DW_Upstairs, all wireless (not switch) | 04:15 |
| Chilaquiles | hey edbian but I have seen people that make the cube go far and they even have a wallpaper | 04:15 |
| DW_Upstairs | although my bedroom is connected to the downstairs LAN through Ethernet-over-power bridges. | 04:15 |
| DBoyz | no not yet | 04:15 |
| DBoyz | hang on | 04:15 |
| DW_Upstairs | I can't get a wireless signal in this room, plus this way lets me hook up a number of devices which can't use wireless at all. | 04:15 |
| landonwo | Can you guys see what I'm typing? | 04:15 |
| DBoyz | rusty149: what's the checklist link? | 04:15 |
| edbian | Chilaquiles: For that you need to install ccsm | 04:16 |
| edbian | Chilaquiles: sudo apt-get install compizconfig-settings-manager (or something like that) | 04:16 |
| rusty149 | DBoyz: http://releases.ubuntu.com/maverick/MD5SUMS | 04:16 |
| Chilaquiles | ok nevermind then | 04:16 |
| bastidrazor | landonwo: #httpd might be a better source of apache help. | 04:16 |
| Chilaquiles | thanks edbian | 04:16 |
| edbian | Chilaquiles: It's much bigger and more elaborate than simple-ccsm, it lets you change much much more | 04:16 |
| landonwo | thank you | 04:16 |
| meway | true true. DW_Upstairs if your signal does not reach go buy a can of air from walmart 8 dollars or something blow it out. Also you will receive a stronger signal with the router higher in the air rather than lower on the floor. | 04:16 |
| bastidrazor | landonwo: best of luck and patience :) | 04:16 |
| DW_Upstairs | meway: There's only so high I can have the router | 04:17 |
| edbian | Chilaquiles: good luck. It's huge! | 04:17 |
| * meway has to waste 32 min | 04:17 | |
| meway | DW_Upstairs, buy a longer cord :p | 04:17 |
| rusty149 | mbvpixies78: try, sudo mount -a | 04:17 |
| DW_Upstairs | The only way I can get it higher is by mounting it on the wall. Oh wait, the mains cord won't reach | 04:17 |
| DW_Upstairs | *shrug* I just said 'screw it' in the end, and got an Ethernet-over-power kit | 04:17 |
| bullgard4 | maco: This worked. -- Thank you for your help. -- I am making my first steps in Banshee. I am trying to play Mozart's 'Eine kleine Nachtmusik'. The title is shown in row 3. There is a progress bar slowly moving to the right. There is a throbber rotating in the lower right. I cannot hear any sound. The sound symbol in the systray is displayed thinly. How to obtain sound? | 04:17 |
| DW_Upstairs | After an initial false start I've got that working just fine | 04:17 |
| Chilaquiles | edbian: I have seen people thatr minimize the widnow and you can see like flames and cool stuff. Can I do that with compiz? | 04:18 |
| DW_Upstairs | Considering they only cost me £35 for the pair, when most name-brand kits cost like £80, they work VERY well. | 04:18 |
| maco | bullgard4: click the sound symbol? | 04:18 |
| DW_Upstairs | I get about 70Mbps with them. Not bad considering they're rated for a max of 85Mbps. | 04:18 |

| Chilaquiles | edbian: where is that configuration located | 04:18 |
| edbian | Chilaquiles: No idea, cube plugin probably | 04:19 |

| zvrk | Chilaquiles, you need install compiz and all compiz packages | 04:20 |
| DW_Upstairs | f0urtyfive: got better? Does Ubuntu's multi-head fail or something? | 04:20 |
| edbian | zvrk: Chilaquiles is the coolest thing ever | 04:21 |
| edbian | Chilaquiles: compiz that is | 04:21 |
| Chilaquiles | how do I do that zvrk?¿ | 04:21 |
| f0urtyfive | DW_Upstairs: Dual head is usually easy (unless you want to rotate one), > 2 doesnt ever work unless you do the config by hand; at least last time I tried | 04:21 |
| zvrk | Chilaquiles, 3d accelerator too | 04:21 |
| rusty149 | mbvpixies78: if not try adding domain=[Domain] to smbcredentials | 04:21 |
| Chilaquiles | I dont have a good video vard | 04:21 |
| Chilaquiles | card | 04:21 |
| DW_Upstairs | f0urtyfive: So Ubuntu should work okay on Monster. Good to know. | 04:21 |
| edbian | Chilaquiles: doesn't really matter | 04:21 |
| Chilaquiles | I think it's going to be very slow if i enable that | 04:22 |
| f0urtyfive | DW_Upstairs: I configured my current setup (24", 17" rotated 90 degrees) in 8.04 and dont dare try to change it | 04:22 |
| f0urtyfive | DW_Upstairs: And even now it gets glitchy, doesnt to XRANDR, etc etc etc | 04:22 |
| DW_Upstairs | All I need is to be able to set both screens to 1280x1024, nothing more esoteric than that | 04:22 |
| zvrk | Chilaquiles, search for compiz in software packages | 04:23 |
| rusty149 | DBoyz: There is a usb-startup-disk.exe creator on the cdimages. It is same software used in Linux and always works. you could try that | 04:23 |
| DW_Upstairs | of course, considering my problems with Windows 7 in that vein, Ubuntu may raise my blood pressure too | 04:23 |
| Chilaquiles | I already installed that zvrk | 04:23 |
| f0urtyfive | DW_Upstairs: Wierd, I've never had an issue with windows multi mon | 04:23 |
| zvrk | Chilaquiles, 3d accelerator too? | 04:23 |
| edbian | Chilaquiles: It will show you all the other extra plugins and such related to compiz | 04:23 |
| DW_Upstairs | Seems that Windows 7 considers the monitor's EDID to be God, and stubbornly resists every effort to change it. | 04:23 |
| edbian | zvrk: It's installed and running by default | 04:23 |
| DW_Upstairs | Windows XP allowed monitor drivers to override it | 04:24 |
| DW_Upstairs | Windows 7 doesn't | 04:24 |
| edbian | DW_Upstairs: what is an EDID? | 04:24 |
| Chilaquiles | mmhh do I have to install that from the software packages also? | 04:24 |

| DW_Upstairs | alright, point taken | 04:24 |
| rusty149 | Its on the cds and in the .iso | 04:24 |
| DW_Upstairs | edbian: EDID is the monitor's configuration, as I understand it. If the monitor supports Plug and Play, EDID is the data that the OS uses to configure it | 04:24 |
| edbian | Chilaquiles: You do not have to install compiz. It is installed by default | 04:25 |
| mbvpixies78 | rusty149: I'm still getting connection refused, even with adding the domain to .smbcredentials by which we use the domain minus the host, i.e., not the FQDN, right? | 04:25 |
| edbian | DW_Upstairs: Electronic Digital ID perhaps? | 04:25 |
| Chilaquiles | ok but what about the 3d accelerator? | 04:25 |
| f0urtyfive | so no one knows if ubuntu multi-head support sucks less in the new releases? | 04:25 |
| DW_Upstairs | maybe | 04:25 |
| DW_Upstairs | "Extended display identification data", so sayeth Wikipedia | 04:25 |
| edbian | Chilaquiles: Do any of the compiz effects work? Does the cube work? | 04:25 |
| Chilaquiles | yep | 04:25 |
| rusty149 | mbvpixies78: yeah, so e.g WORKGROUP or whatever yours is | 04:25 |
| Chilaquiles | they do | 04:25 |
| edbian | Chilaquiles: then it's all working | 04:26 |

| DW_Upstairs | Anyone know how easily the Nvidia drivers would let me override that in Ubuntu? | 04:26 |
| zvrk | and you need set up effects | 04:27 |

| steev | hi all, i'm trying to figure out what im doing wrong here, and maybe someone can give some suggestions. I've tried adding a module to /etc/initramfs-tools/modules (pata_fsl) as well as adding it in /usr/share/initramfs-tools/modules; it still doesn't load the module. the module IS in the initramfs, but it isn't loading it | 04:30 |

| edbian | Chilaquiles: yeah | 04:30 |
| Chilaquiles | cool let me try that | 04:31 |
| DW_Upstairs | Okay, here's an Ubuntu question; Ubuntu has put an icon in the taskbar telling me to Install Drivers for my Geforce 7600. Except, I just did that. Apparently it thinks I need to enable BOTH versions of the Nvidia drivers. | 04:31 |
| rusty149 | DBoyz: simply double-click and treats it like a folder | 04:31 |
| edbian | Chilaquiles: ummm, no, IDK it's in there somewhere, explore | 04:31 |
| steev | i've tried adding something to a hooks, for force_load pata_fsl, but it doesn't seem to work either | 04:31 |
| DW_Upstairs | Anyone know how to get rid of that? | 04:31 |
| DBoyz | k | 04:31 |
| DBoyz | what do i do next? | 04:31 |
| DW_Upstairs | I'm pretty sure that I can't enable both versions of the driver at the same time, and that even if I did it would accomplish nothing good | 04:31 |

| edbian | Chilaquiles: IDK, haha | 04:32 |
| edbian | DW_Upstairs: about not wanting 2 drivers installed at once | 04:32 |

| rusty149 | DBoyz: After install, open the ubuntu .iso and copy usb-creator.exe to your computer | 04:32 |
| Chilaquiles | im a newbiue | 04:33 |
| DW_Upstairs | shcherbak: Ta! That should put me in the right direction | 04:33 |
| edbian | Chilaquiles: IDK = I don't know | 04:33 |
| Chilaquiles | lol | 04:33 |
| AbhiJit | bullgard4, and what is that? | 04:33 |
| bullgard4 | AbhiJit: A Ubuntu program. | 04:33 |
| DBoyz | i have to reboot first | 04:33 |
| AbhiJit | bullgard4, thank you | 04:33 |
| DBoyz | brb then | 04:33 |
| meway | DW_Upstairs, nivida is also a network adapter in some machines | 04:34 |
| ddilinger | hmm, as someone who's been installing debian since about 1995, i have to say unetbootin is a little easier :) | 04:34 |
| DW_Upstairs | shcherbak: ta muchly, that worked | 04:34 |
| ddilinger | not so much in the last 5 | 04:34 |
| zvrk | Chilaquiles, i change control buttons | 04:34 |
| DW_Upstairs | meway: Fortunately not in this system. But no, it was specifically telling me to install the drivers for the Geforce | 04:34 |
| mbvpixies78 | rusty149: Windows keeps refusing connection so I'm taking a little time to make sure everything is set right on that end. | 04:34 |
| zvrk | to ctrl +f | 04:34 |
| DW_Upstairs | I installed "version current" but it wanted me to install "version 173". | 04:34 |
| meway | DW_Upstairs, my HP had both so I was like erf? | 04:35 |
| DW_Upstairs | I can understand that. | 04:35 |
| zvrk | Chilaquiles, & work for me | 04:35 |
| digitalfiz | hmm i cant install cmake on my machine why is this? | 04:35 |
| DW_Upstairs | Until it died on me, I had an Nforce4 motherboard, and the primary network interface was Nvidia | 04:35 |
| digitalfiz | The following packages have unmet dependencies: | 04:35 |
| digitalfiz | cmake : Depends: libxmlrpc-core-c3 but it is not installable | 04:35 |
| digitalfiz | Depends: cmake-data (= 2.8.3-1~maverick1) but it is not going to be installed | 04:35 |
| Chilaquiles | zvrk: where? | 04:35 |
| ldz420 | my une issue seems to be with the interface. The Docking bar and the main panel seems to be transparent or I am unable to see icons that appear on them. One thing that I notices is that when if I us scroll bar on docking bar I am able to see icons but they disappear. I also have tried the software on multiple machines and still get the same results. I have also tried downloading multiple copies and same results is this i known i | 04:35 |
| meway | digilink, did you froget to type sudo | 04:35 |
| zvrk | Chilaquiles, in option for paint fire on screen | 04:36 |
| meway | digilink, nvm | 04:36 |
| DW_Upstairs | ldz420: Your line cuts off at "is this i known i" | 04:36 |
| digitalfiz | meway, no | 04:36 |
| Chilaquiles | what category zvrk? | 04:36 |
| bullgard4 | !512 | ldz420 | 04:36 |

| edbian | In ubuntu I used notify-send to write simple gui notifications in bash scripts what can I use to do that in suse? notify-send ain't in the repos | 04:38 |
| AbhiJit | edbian, #suse | 04:38 |
| DW_Upstairs | elkng: Oooh, I know this one! Sort of. It involves the xrandr command if memory serves | 04:38 |
| Chilaquiles | zvrk: I already enable everything in effects nothing worked | 04:39 |
| meway | elkng, system>monitors | 04:39 |

| meway | erm wait | 04:39 |
| DW_Upstairs | meway: He specifically asked for console | 04:39 |
| meway | yea I was a bit slow there | 04:39 |
| DBoyz | rusty149: im not seeing the reason why i should install that software. i have 7-zip | 04:40 |
| bullgard4 | charlesno: "I cannot get" is no precise description. Please cite an error message so that people can help you more efficiently. | 04:40 |
| Chilaquiles | bastidrazor, what do I have to enable in Minimize Animation? | 04:40 |
| zvrk | Chilaquiles, you need to set up and initiate with keyb. | 04:40 |

| meway | redv lmao | 04:41 |
| ldz420 | bullgard: "!512? " come again | 04:41 |
| DW_Upstairs | wonder if that's because of it being desktop, or 10.10, because UNE 10.04 doesn't do this | 04:41 |
| DW_Upstairs | ldz420: If you type too many characters at once, your line gets truncated. | 04:41 |
| ubuntu | um, can any1 help me with something | 04:41 |

| AbhiJit | ubuntu, asjk | 04:41 |
| rusty149 | DBoyz: ok, use that then if it supports iso's. But Virtual Clone is different as it mounts the image like a cd drive | 04:41 |
| redv | ubuntu: just ask your problem and people will assist | 04:41 |
| meway | ubuntu, change your name to something better. type /nick <yournewusername> | 04:41 |

| meway | nuboon2age_, I feel really bad because I highlighted you like 13 times for no reason XD | 04:59 |
| mbvpixies78 | I can go to places, connect to server and manually mount my windows shares through the GUI, but fstab and command line mounting don't work... if only there was a way to look up the GUI command | 04:59 |
| shcherbak | nubuntu: in menu of synaptic open preferencies or settings and go to repositories... | 04:59 |
| Chilaquiles | mhh, no | 04:59 |
| Chilaquiles | I don't have burn | 04:59 |

| nubuntu | now what | 04:59 |
| ldz420 | so any idea on the ui issue that I am having? | 04:59 |
| DBoyz | rusty149: i got message md5sum don't match | 04:59 |
| nubuntu | lubuntu. i tried running ubuntu from a CD and a USB but for some reason it wouldnt run | 05:00 |
| shcherbak | nubuntu: enable third party software | 05:00 |
| nubuntu | so im kinda stuck with it | 05:00 |
| nubuntu | ok | 05:00 |
| rusty149 | DBoyz: from that software | 05:00 |
| zvrk | Chilaquiles, you have just none | 05:00 |
| mbvpixies78 | brb | 05:00 |
| DBoyz | yes | 05:00 |
| redv | maybe you didn't burn it/set it up right | 05:00 |
| rusty149 | DBoyz: can you skip it? | 05:00 |
| Blueleaf | some one remind an old guy how do i pipe the output of lspci to a text file? | 05:00 |
| Galactiger | hi, on the "Who Are You?" screen in the install process, how do you get Forward to not be grayed-out? | 05:00 |
| DBoyz | yes | 05:00 |
| rusty149 | Blueleaf: lspci >> text.txt | 05:01 |
| Chilaquiles | I have 3 effects | 05:01 |
| redv | nubuntu: what I do right now is had a windows 7 install then downloaded the Ubuntu Windows installer which allows me to dual boot between win7 and ubuntu | 05:01 |
| nubuntu | under which tab do i enable 3rd party software? | 05:01 |
| meway | nubuntu, in order for it to run from a usb or cd you must go into your bios and change the boot order. Normally on startup it asks you to press f2 or f12 or similar | 05:01 |
| maco | Galactiger: usernames must be lowercase and have no spaces. is that the case with yours? | 05:01 |
| shcherbak | nubuntu: synaptic will ask you to reload, i think there is button in top left with two arrows, press it | 05:01 |
| zvrk | Chilaquiles, like | 05:01 |
| meway | you can also press f8 for boot order or such | 05:01 |
| redv | ubuntu 10.04/ubuntu desktop is really straight forward and beginner friendly | 05:01 |
| DBoyz | but my usb stick is only 300+ mb used | 05:01 |
| rusty149 | DBoyz: you have already check so skip | 05:01 |
| nubuntu | i know what part | 05:01 |
| Galactiger | maco: yes | 05:01 |
| shcherbak | nubuntu: just second... | 05:01 |
| DBoyz | i'll try again | 05:01 |
| nubuntu | i went into the bios and changed it to boot from usb | 05:01 |
| maco | Galactiger: both your passwords match? | 05:01 |
| nubuntu | but it didnt work | 05:01 |
| Chilaquiles | Glide 2 , none and Fade | 05:01 |
| nubuntu | lubuntu did tho | 05:01 |
| meway | nubuntu, some machines don't support it :/ | 05:02 |
| nubuntu | ah well | 05:02 |
| Galactiger | maco: yeah, I've got a little checkmark next to the Confirm entry... | 05:02 |
| zvrk | Chilaquiles, you need to install all packages for compiz | 05:02 |
| maco | Galactiger: name's filled in too? ive only heard this problem when people use capital letters in username | 05:02 |
| Galactiger | maco: wait a second... | 05:02 |
| zvrk | Chilaquiles, like extras experimental etc | 05:02 |
| Chilaquiles | ok zvrk, can I find that on the ubuntu software center? | 05:02 |
| shcherbak | nubuntu: tick all on fist tab | 05:03 |
| nubuntu | anyway, about enabling the 3rd party software, it that where i check off those "software packaged by canonical..." stuff | 05:03 |
| nubuntu | oh | 05:03 |
| Galactiger | maco: I lied, whoops! my username seems to be the issue | 05:03 |
| nubuntu | ok theyre all ticked in | 05:03 |
| shcherbak | nubuntu: in second you can tick all but cd | 05:03 |
| zvrk | Chilaquiles, yes just search for compiz | 05:03 |
| Galactiger | maco: huh, that seemed to be it =O | 05:03 |
| nubuntu | so basically all but the first, ok | 05:03 |
| Galactiger | maco: thank you! ^^ | 05:04 |
| zvrk | Chilaquiles, install all related to compiz packages | 05:04 |
| Chilaquiles | ok thanks zvrk | 05:04 |
| nubuntu | then what? | 05:04 |
| zvrk | Chilaquiles, you welcome | 05:05 |
| shcherbak | nubuntu: after reload, search for adobe flash | 05:05 |
| nubuntu | is "revert" the same as reload? | 05:05 |
| JackyAlcine | nubuntu: No | 05:06 |
| nubuntu | aight | 05:06 |
| shcherbak | nubuntu: you should see installer from adobe, revert? no! | 05:06 |
| nubuntu | so ill just close it | 05:06 |
| ajwill | hi all, I have a problem with ubuntu 10.10, it tends to randomly log me out a lot... I havent really managed to link it to anything besides maybe VNCing into it... its making my ubuntu unreliable and sometimes irritating... help | 05:06 |
| shcherbak | nubuntu: just close reopsitories window | 05:06 |

| trism | ajwill: using x11vnc? | 05:08 |
| JackyAlcine | nubuntu: What exactly was the problem? You should post your process on Ubuntu Forums so others can learn from your ... mistake. :D | 05:08 |
| ldz420 | I have attempted to search on the internet but still not finding any thing on the same issue that I am having | 05:08 |
| shcherbak | nubuntu: if your machine is strong enough | 05:08 |
| nubuntu | mother... | 05:08 |
| Chilaquiles | is there any software like x-lite for ubuntu? | 05:08 |
| nubuntu | i checked youtube real quick to see if i got flash and it continues to say I dont? | 05:08 |
| ajwill | trism: correct, I've noticed it most often shuts down when I VNC into it via an x11vnc server I have set up via a bash script and a daemon, I vnc into it from my ipod touch using VNC Viewer if that'd affect anything | 05:09 |
| sacarlson | ajwill: I'm going to guess it's a screen saver setting | 05:09 |
| nubuntu | oh | 05:09 |
| nubuntu | i see | 05:09 |
| shcherbak | nubuntu: is it installed already? | 05:09 |
| ajwill | sacarlson: I've done a lot of googling and setting changing and that's definitely not it | 05:09 |
| nubuntu | its because i was using chromium thats why | 05:09 |
| ranjan | Chilaquiles, Ekiga | 05:09 |
| nubuntu | yeah its installed | 05:09 |
| ranjan | Chilaquiles, twinkle | 05:10 |
| trism | ajwill: same thing was happening to me, I rolled back to lucid, but today I found ttps://bugs.freedesktop.org//show_bug.cgi?id=30032 , it appears it might be a bug in the 1.9 xserver when using xrecords, the workaround seems to be to pass -noxrecords to x11vnc, I haven't tried it yet though | 05:10 |
| ranjan | Chilaquiles, those can be used for replacing x-lite | 05:10 |
| ajwill | trism: lucid... is that a vnc server? | 05:10 |
| rusty149 | DBoyz: watch this if you are still confused | 05:10 |
| trism | ajwill: no lucid is 10.04 of ubuntu | 05:10 |
| nubuntu | so , uh, when looking for a compatible mozilla browser, do i search for one for ubuntu or just for linux in general? | 05:10 |
| nubuntu | since i dont have mozilla yet | 05:10 |
| DBoyz | rusty149: it says installation failed | 05:11 |
| shcherbak | nubuntu: use opera | 05:11 |
| ajwill | trism: ohh, well I really like ubuntu 10.10, so I guess I'll try adding the -noxrecords to x11vnc if I havent already... checking my script now | 05:11 |
| JackyAlcine | nubuntu: search http://www.webupd8.org; they have a fix for that. | 05:11 |
| shcherbak | nubuntu: most of browsers are in repos, or deliver .deb packages | 05:11 |
| trism | ajwill: actually it is -noxrecord , sorry | 05:11 |
| Chilaquiles | ranjan, Im looking for a software that is very similar to x-lite since I need to configure it like x-lite | 05:11 |
| rusty149 | DBoyz: in the windows program? | 05:12 |
| DBoyz | yes | 05:12 |
| ajwill | trism: okay, I dont have that in my script... gunna give it a shot :) | 05:12 |
| ranjan | Chilaquiles, both these can be used like x-lite. what are the configurations you want?? | 05:12 |
| trism | ajwill: good luck | 05:12 |
| shcherbak | nubuntu: sudo apt-get install firefox will install firefox in your system. | 05:12 |
| DBoyz | then it said something about the md5 thingy not matching | 05:12 |
| ajwill | trism: thanks! much appreciated :) | 05:12 |
| ranjan | Chilaquiles, you just want to specify the VOIP server and ports isnt it? | 05:12 |
| nubuntu | i type that into the search? | 05:12 |
| shcherbak | nubuntu: What browser are you using now? | 05:13 |
| Chilaquiles | no ranjan | 05:13 |
| nubuntu | chromium | 05:13 |
| shcherbak | nubuntu: no, in terminal | 05:13 |
| ranjan | Chilaquiles, then??? | 05:13 |
| Chilaquiles | give me a sec and I tell you | 05:13 |
| sacarlson | nubuntu: I think firefox is default installed it's the new version of mozilla | 05:13 |
| ldz420 | ok.. I will go to a new question.. can someone inform me how to remove non-essential GNOME services? | 05:13 |
| nubuntu | terminal? | 05:13 |
| ldz420 | yea | 05:13 |
| shcherbak | nubuntu: chromium, not easy choice. | 05:14 |
| ranjan | !ekiga | 05:14 |
| ubottu | ekiga is an Internet telephony application included with Ubuntu, which supports the SIP and H323 protocols. Information and help at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Ekiga | 05:14 |
| rusty149 | DBoyz: this is very odd, you shouldn't be having this trouble. Did you check the md5sum already? | 05:14 |
| ranjan | tell Chilaquiles !ekiga | 05:14 |
| Chilaquiles | ranjam, I need to do the same as it says here: | 05:14 |
| Chilaquiles | http://www.levoltz.com/2010/03/04/unlimited-free-international-calls-sms-with-google-voice-outside-us/ | 05:14 |
| shcherbak | nubuntu: Alt-F2 and xtem | 05:14 |
| DBoyz | i have | 05:14 |
| shcherbak | nubuntu: Alt-F2 and xterm | 05:14 |
| shcherbak | sorry | 05:14 |
| ranjan | Chilaquiles, let me see | 05:14 |
| DBoyz | rusty149: gimme the checklist | 05:14 |
| rusty149 | DBoyz: what is the filename of the iso? | 05:14 |
| DBoyz | +again | 05:14 |
| DBoyz | im trying it for ubuntu-10.10-desktop-i386 first | 05:15 |
| nubuntu | ok... a black box appeared | 05:15 |
| rusty149 | DBoyz: http://releases.ubuntu.com/maverick/MD5SUMS | 05:15 |
| Hypoglybetic | Hi. I just installed Ubuntu Desktop 10.10. I rebooted my machine and now I have grub> sitting on my screen. Not sure what to do. | 05:15 |
| shcherbak | nubuntu: close synaptic and in box type: sudo apt-get install firefox | 05:15 |
| nubuntu | ight | 05:16 |
| ajwill | Hypolgybetic: are there options on the grub screen? | 05:16 |
| nubuntu | its working its magic | 05:16 |
| Hypoglybetic | ajwill I pressed TAB and I have a slew of commands avaliable. There are no Options. | 05:16 |
| ranjan | Chilaquiles, all these can be done in twinkle i think | 05:16 |
| nubuntu | this gives me firefox? | 05:17 |
| Chilaquiles | mhhh, I hope so | 05:17 |
| Jordan_U | Hypoglybetic: Do you have more than one hard drive? | 05:17 |
| shcherbak | nubuntu: when finished, Alt-F2 and firefox | 05:17 |
| desaints | (typing from desktop pc win7) just installed and finished updates for HP-G60 laptop ubuntu 10.10 x64. There is no wifi link available. As in the wifi doesnt even exist. Not sure what to do here? | 05:17 |
| ajwill | okay so when you reboot and just go to the main grub menu there isnt anything like Ubuntu then a whole crapload of numbers? | 05:17 |
| Hypoglybetic | Jordan_U I am using a Dell Perc 6i PCI card to manage a RAID5 array of5 disks 4TB | 05:17 |
| shcherbak | nubuntu: or in black box (xterm) type firefox and hit enter | 05:18 |
| rusty149 | Hypoglybetic: Do you see an 'Ubuntu, with Linux 2.6...' option | 05:18 |
| Jordan_U | Hypoglybetic: Does "ls -l" at the grub shell seem to list the array as a single drive, and correctly display its contents? | 05:18 |
| Hypoglybetic | rusty149 No I do not | 05:18 |
| nubuntu | THANKSSS | 05:18 |
| nubuntu | it works perfectly now! | 05:18 |
| nubuntu | yes!!! | 05:18 |
| Hypoglybetic | rofl | 05:19 |
| shcherbak | nubuntu: to the next one, than, thanks | 05:19 |
| desaints | (typing from desktop pc win7) just installed and finished updates for HP-G60 laptop ubuntu 10.10 x64. There is no wifi link available. As in the wifi doesnt even exist. Not sure what to do here? | 05:19 |
| DBoyz | aha | 05:19 |
| DBoyz | rusty149: same error | 05:19 |
| DBoyz | i tried for amd64 alternate, same problem | 05:19 |
| nubuntu | now my pc isnt totally useless lol | 05:19 |
| nubuntu | thanks man | 05:19 |
| Hypoglybetic | Jordan_u hd0 gpt3: unknown file stystem, hd0,gpt2: ext2, hd0,gpt1: unkonwn filesystem | 05:20 |
| rusty149 | DBoyz: have you tried pendrivelinux or UNetBootin | 05:20 |
| DBoyz | YES | 05:20 |
| shcherbak | nubuntu: i belive it have much potential. | 05:20 |
| desaints | (typing from desktop pc win7) just installed and finished updates for HP-G60 laptop ubuntu 10.10 x64. There is no wifi link available. As in the wifi doesnt even exist. Not sure what to do here? | 05:20 |
| Jordan_U | Hypoglybetic: Interesting. It doesn't list any filesystems that it *can* understand? | 05:20 |
| DBoyz | pendrivelinux - the ubuntu logo appears with the options but nothing happens when i select any option | 05:21 |
| Jordan_U | Hypoglybetic: Never mind, misread. | 05:21 |
| Hypoglybetic | Jordan_U Just the hd0,gpt2: ext2 | 05:21 |
| DBoyz | unetbootin - i got an error that says "operating system missing" | 05:21 |
| psycho_oreos | desaints, you need to find out what sort of wifi adapter you have or you can try and get help online using wired connection | 05:21 |
| nubuntu | peace | 05:21 |
| nubuntu | later | 05:21 |
| Hypoglybetic | Jordan_U So it can read the swap partition..i guess | 05:21 |
| psycho_oreos | desaints, it'll be a lot quicker in general if you could seek support whilst rely on wired connection as the feedbacks are more prompt | 05:22 |
| desaints | alright | 05:22 |
| shcherbak | desaints: similar thing but on natty, linux-firmware? | 05:22 |
| Jordan_U | Hypoglybetic: If you "ls (hd0,gpt2)/" do you see what looks like the files of a root filesystem? (/var, /etc...) | 05:22 |
| KGBWolf | is the an RDP client for jolicloud? | 05:23 |
| Hypoglybetic | Jordan_U Yes | 05:23 |
| Jordan_U | Hypoglybetic: What happens when you run "configfile (hd0,gpt2)/boot/grub/grub.cfg"? | 05:23 |
| desaints | is there a tool i can use to figure out what my wifi adapter is | 05:24 |
| shcherbak | desaints: lspci | 05:24 |
| psycho_oreos | desaints, there's plenty under linux, under windows there's some that will give you basic info | 05:24 |
| Hypoglybetic | Jordan_U My screen was cleared, grub> _ is now at the top of the screen | 05:24 |
| desaints | Network controller: Intel Corporation PRO/Wireless 5100 AGN [Shiloh] Network Connection | 05:25 |
| Jordan_U | Hypoglybetic: Any errors if you run "source (hd0,gpt2)/boot/grub/grub.cfg"? | 05:25 |
| DBoyz | rusty149: anything? | 05:26 |
| Hypoglybetic | Jordan_U, none | 05:26 |
| shcherbak | desaints: does your panel applet saying "missing firmware"? | 05:26 |
| desaints | nope | 05:26 |
| rudi_ | hi | 05:26 |
| Jordan_U | Hypoglybetic: Do you see kernel images if you "ls /boot/"? | 05:26 |
| Hypoglybetic | Jordan_U nothing happened, no error, no confirmation, no msg | 05:26 |
| shcherbak | desaints: ifconfig - any wireless? | 05:26 |
| CrazyH | Ubuntu 9.04, Dell Studio 1745, No sound. Here is the output from the ALSA analyzer script: http://pastebin.com/wL0qifrA I've tried all the basics (like volume controls, ALSA mixer, lspci) ... any ideas? | 05:27 |
| shcherbak | desaints: or better iwconfig | 05:27 |
| Jordan_U | CrazyH: Ubuntu 9.04 is no longer supported. | 05:27 |
| rusty149 | DBoyz: what kind of machine is it? | 05:27 |
| Hypoglybetic | Jordan_U I see system map, abi, memtest86+, vmcoreinfo, vmlinuz, nothing about Kernel | 05:27 |
| desaints | how do i select a name instead of typing it here in irc | 05:27 |
| CrazyH | Jordan_U: i would upgrade, but when I do my KB and mouse die... so... now what? | 05:27 |
| shcherbak | desaints: des<TAB> | 05:28 |
| izzy__ | Hey can someone help me with a webcam issue? | 05:28 |
| DBoyz | lenovo V360 | 05:28 |
| desaints | shcherbak: wlan0 IEEE 802.11abg ESSID:off/any | 05:28 |
| SilentSpoon | can anyone help me with Gwibber (for facebook) | 05:28 |
| DBoyz | google it | 05:28 |
| KGBWolf | is the an RDP client for jolicloud? | 05:28 |
| Jordan_U | CrazyH: Do your keyboard and mouse work from a 10.04 or 10.10 liveCD? | 05:28 |
| KGBWolf | is there an RDP client for jolicloud? | 05:28 |
| psycho_oreos | desaints, that is your wireless interface | 05:28 |
| shcherbak | desaints: ok, wifi is there, where is problem? | 05:28 |
| izzy__ | Is it possible to use a webcam with Ubuntu? | 05:29 |
| CrazyH | Jordan_U: yes. But after the install is finished, the machine boots to graphical login. Then I can't do anything at all. I have to hit the power off button :-9 | 05:29 |
| sacarlson | DBoyz: you sure your usb flash is any good? hwtest maybe? | 05:29 |
| desaints | shcherbak: i cannot enable wifi, the button is red instead of blue, and im not certain as how to enable wifi through linux (learning still) | 05:29 |
| shcherbak | izzy__: try cheese, camorama | 05:29 |
| ajwill | izz__: very! I use mine and there's even moderately decent webcam effect packages | 05:29 |
| desaints | shcherbak: and there is no wifi tray app saying i can connect to networks | 05:29 |
| Jordan_U | Hypoglybetic: The files like "vmlinuz-2.6.32-25-generic" are the kernel images. | 05:30 |
| Hypoglybetic | Jordan_U Oh, okay | 05:30 |
| shcherbak | desaints: you gnome? | 05:30 |
| desaints | shcherbak: yes | 05:30 |
| desaints | shcherbak: i have no idea how to do kde | 05:30 |
| DBoyz | sacarlson: i am playing bee gees song from my usb stick | 05:30 |
| DBoyz | anything else/ | 05:30 |
| DBoyz | ?* | 05:30 |
| shcherbak | desaints: nm-applet --replace? | 05:31 |
| Jordan_U | Hypoglybetic: Are you familiar with tab completion? | 05:31 |
| desaints | shcherbak: An instance of nm-applet is already running. | 05:31 |
| Hypoglybetic | Jordan_U I'm experienced with computer hardware, electronics, and windows but I don't know anything about Linux | 05:31 |
| shcherbak | desaints: ok, try first iwlist wlan0 scanning | 05:31 |
| desaints | shcherbak: wlan0 Failed to read scan data : Network is down, also the network tray app says wifi is disabled | 05:32 |
| shcherbak | desaints: ok, killall nm-applet && gnome-panel --replace | 05:33 |
| Jordan_U | Hypoglybetic: In a bash shell you can type the first few characters of a filename then hit the tab key to automatically complete the rest of it. The same is true for the grub shell, and for your IRC client with nicknames (try typing "Jord<TAB>"). | 05:33 |
| CrazyH | Jordan_U: I'm trying again. I do remember getting fully logged on once to Ubuntu 10.10, but the X UI looks completely different and I could barely use it. How do I revert the UI back to what comes standard with 9.04? | 05:33 |
| izzy__ | What I want to do is video chat with some one using Windows. | 05:33 |
| rusty149 | DBoyz: Try reformat the usb drive and try again | 05:33 |
| shcherbak | desaints: otherwise use rfkill | 05:33 |
| izzy__ | Is that possible? | 05:33 |
| DBoyz | tried | 05:33 |
| desaints | shcherbak: ok did that | 05:33 |
| DBoyz | i reformat my usb everytime i try a new method | 05:33 |
| Hypoglybetic | Jordan_U, ...oh god that helps | 05:33 |
| Jordan_U | Hypoglybetic: :) | 05:34 |
| shcherbak | desaints: Does your applet is visible? | 05:34 |
| Hypoglybetic | Jordan_U, neat | 05:34 |
| eoss | hello i am trying to install OTR for pidgin on ubuntu 10.10 | 05:34 |
| rusty149 | DBoyz: You could try it manually, but that is more complicated | 05:34 |
| eoss | can someone help me? | 05:34 |
| Diamondcite | izzy__: Assuming your webcam is properly supported to begin with in Ubuntu, programs like Skype can potentially be used to Video chat with Windows systems. | 05:34 |
| desaints | shcherbak: the terminal was sitting on the process not completing it. i closed terminal and the tray disappeared.. | 05:34 |
| izzy__ | Ok thanks. I'll try that. | 05:34 |
| DBoyz | rusty149: ? | 05:34 |
| Thndrandlitning5 | I need some ube rhelp here, can an ubuntu pro PM me please x.x | 05:34 |
| DBoyz | try what manually? | 05:35 |
| Diamondcite | izzy__: Please make sure your webcam actually works before trying skype, else you are in for a very big headache ^_^ | 05:35 |
| shcherbak | desaints: Alt-F2 gnome-panel --replace | 05:35 |
| izzy__ | lol it works with Cheese and Camorame | 05:35 |
| Jordan_U | Hypoglybetic: To boot manually from the grub shell run "linux /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.32-25-generic root=/dev/sda2" (use tab completion for vmlinuz...) then "initrd /boot/initrd.img-2.6.31-20-generic" then simply run "boot". | 05:35 |
| izzy__ | Camorama* | 05:35 |
| shcherbak | izzy__: so it will with skype | 05:36 |
| desaints | shcherbak: alt+F2 does nothing | 05:36 |
| izzy__ | Thanks man/lady. | 05:36 |
| sacarlson | DBoyz: problem I have with usb flash here are the fake ones that only have part of the mem they say they have, I buy a 2 gig here in thailand and get about 500meg the rest of the data turns to all 0x00, maybe test it with something like http://www.raymond.cc/blog/archives/2008/03/21/how-to-check-and-test-usb-flash-drive/ | 05:36 |

| Jordan_U | Hypoglybetic: By the way, as a first experience with Linux you've been thrown into the deep end. This is far from normal :) | 05:36 |
| shcherbak | desaints: i assume your whole panel is gone | 05:36 |
| desaints | shcherbak: yes | 05:37 |
| SilentSpoon | can anyone help me with Gwibber (for facebook) | 05:37 |
| shcherbak | desaints: Alt-Ctrl-t can you open terminal? | 05:37 |
| Sabetsu | Hey guys, does anyone know of how you might be able to batch-add smileys to Pidgin? | 05:37 |
| Hypoglybetic | Jordan_U, I've been trying to setup a f-ing ESXi 4.1 server for 2 weeks straight, said screw it and tried to run ubuntu and consolidate Win Home Server into Ubuntu for my media purposes. I've been trying to get Ubuntu to install correctly/not corrupted/not bugged for 3 days now | 05:37 |
| desaints | shcherbak: yes terminal is open | 05:38 |
| Sabetsu | I have read a tutorial on how to make themes, but I don´t want to change my theme, only batch-add custom smilies. | 05:38 |
| shcherbak | desaints: gnome-panel --replace, do not close it yet | 05:38 |
| desaints | ok | 05:38 |
| desaints | shcherbak: ok done | 05:38 |
| shcherbak | desaints: you have panel now? | 05:39 |
| desaints | shcherbak: yes | 05:39 |
| Thndrandlitning5 | Can't get ubuntu installed x.x | 05:39 |
| shcherbak | desaints: do you see nm-applet? | 05:39 |
| desaints | shcherbak: not in the tray | 05:39 |
| mbvpixies78 | Ubuntu server is still unable to mount windows shares on bootup. here is my fstab: http://paste.debian.net/104272 and here is my smb.conf: http://paste.debian.net/104273 | 05:39 |

| xangua | !panels | shcherbak desaints | 05:41 |
| ubottu | shcherbak desaints: To reset the gnome panel to defaults, type this in a !terminal: « gconftool --recursive-unset /apps/panel && killall gnome-panel » | 05:41 |
| shcherbak | desaints: it should free terminal | 05:41 |
| desaints | shcherbak: ok | 05:41 |
| Jordan_U | Hypoglybetic: Did you use tab completion? The filename I gave was just a quick example from my system, it won't work on yours. Use "linux /boot/vmlin<TAB> root=/dev/sda2" then "initrd /boot/initrd<TAB>" then "boot". | 05:41 |
| shcherbak | xangua: it is more about nm-applet | 05:41 |
| xangua | TheMoor: then use other kernel | 05:41 |
| SilentSpoon | can anyone explain how gwibber or empathy work? | 05:41 |
| TheMoor | xangua my cd reader is broken :( | 05:42 |
| xangua | SilentSpoon: enter your username, your password, conect | 05:42 |
| Hypoglybetic | Jordan_U, Ah, okay. | 05:42 |
| shcherbak | desaints: in terminal: killall nm-applet | 05:42 |
| Hypoglybetic | Jordan_U, i appreciate your help | 05:42 |
| desaints | shcherbak: no process found | 05:42 |
| SilentSpoon | xangua, that doesn't work. in gwibber I can see everything but when I try to reply it doesn't work | 05:42 |
| SilentSpoon | xangua, and in empathy theres a "network error" | 05:42 |
| TheMoor | isnt possible to just install it ? | 05:42 |
| shcherbak | desaints: ok, install rfkill, and run rfkill list | 05:43 |
| Hypoglybetic | Jordan_U, invalid magic number | 05:43 |
| DBoyz | sacarlson: how do i know if my usb stick is healthy? | 05:43 |
| shcherbak | desaints: i need to test own nm-applet | 05:43 |
| Jordan_U | Hypoglybetic: That means that the file wasn't actually a linux kernel. Let me recheck my instructions. | 05:43 |
| TheMoor | what , no solution for me :( | 05:44 |
| shcherbak | desaints: What applet you do have? Did you try to add it back to panel? | 05:44 |
| Hypoglybetic | jordJordan_U Last time I installed the server edition it worked fine, but i corrupted something (hence me starting from scratch) | 05:44 |
| Hypoglybetic | Jordan_U, Maybe I should just start there,again? lol | 05:45 |
| desaints | shcherbak: i tried to run rfkill -list | 05:45 |
| desaints | shcherbak: and it wants a identifier? | 05:45 |
| KGBWolf | whats the apt-get command to install JAVA JRE | 05:45 |

| kora | hey guys, i'm runnning 10.04 (x86) and trying to install truecrypt 7.0a. i downloaded the installer (x86) from the truecrypt page and can install it. however when i try to start truecrypt i get an error that tc can't find the shared library libfuse.so.2 (the package is installed though). any ideas? | 05:47 |
| Jordan_U | Hypoglybetic: Have you ever seen the error "out of disk"? It's a symptom of a BIOS bug that won't cause problems untill you need to read files far into a large drive (so it can pop up unexpectedly on a previously working system). | 05:47 |
| shcherbak | !panels | desaints | 05:47 |
| ubottu | desaints: To reset the gnome panel to defaults, type this in a !terminal: « gconftool --recursive-unset /apps/panel && killall gnome-panel » | 05:47 |
| Hypoglybetic | Jordan_U, No, I haven't. | 05:47 |
| TotalHavic_ | l | 05:48 |
| desaints | shcherbak: ok i put in gconftool --recursive-unset /apps/panel && killall gnome-panel | 05:48 |
| Hypoglybetic | Jordan_U, I know if I use my nForce 680i fakeRAID i can overflow my bios' raid size (limit of 2 TB), but Ubuntu reads it, until it restarts. xD -- But this time I'm usingthe hardware raid from Dell | 05:48 |
| desaints | shcherbak: and it killed the panel nothing came back | 05:48 |
| xangua | desaints: now just run: nm-applet | 05:49 |
| TheMoor | xangua isnt possible to just install openvpn in this kernel version ? | 05:49 |
| shcherbak | desaints: same trick like last time, terminal to replace panel and Alt-F2 to free terminal | 05:49 |
| Jordan_U | Hypoglybetic: You're familiar with the difference between FakeRAID and true hardware RAID, and you're currently using true hardware RAID? | 05:49 |

| xangua | i am not a psiquic, no idea what kernel version are you talking about or where did you got it; better use packages from the oficial repositories | 05:50 |
| Thndrandlitning5 | Helppppp x.x | 05:50 |
| Hypoglybetic | Jordan_U, Yes, the Dell PERC 6i PCI-e 4x ($300 retail) card sitting in my computer is hardware raid. | 05:50 |
| Hypoglybetic | Jordan_U, If It isn't heads will role | 05:50 |
| desaints | shcherbak: ok i have everything back up and running, nm-applet is back also | 05:51 |
| Hypoglybetic | Jordan_U, and it isn't hardware assisted raid either. | 05:51 |
| Hypoglybetic | Jordan_U, or shouldn't be | 05:51 |
| desaints | shcherbak: still says wifi is disabled | 05:51 |
| shcherbak | desaints: can you enable wireless | 05:51 |
| desaints | shcherbak: i cant with the button or the nm-applet | 05:51 |
| DBoyz | sacarlson: what am i supposed to do if there's errors? | 05:52 |
| shcherbak | desaints: do you have and well hidden swith on your laptop? | 05:52 |
| Thndrandlitning5 | shcherbak: Do you know if the latest ubuntu works with the xfx gefore 8200 motherboard? | 05:52 |
| TheMoor | xangua can i post a link here plz to a thread from the ubuntu forum ? | 05:52 |
| shcherbak | Thndrandlitning5: no clue. | 05:52 |
| Jordan_U | Hypoglybetic: Then I'm really curious why you're having problems. The file that you tried to load was not a valid linux kernel, but it should have been. It may be that the file got corrupted at some point. Did you run the integrity test on the Ubuntu install CD? | 05:53 |
| xangua | !hardware | Thndrandlitning5 | 05:53 |
| ubottu | Thndrandlitning5: For lists of supported hardware on Ubuntu see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupport - To help debugging and improving hardware detection, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebuggingHardwareDetection | 05:53 |
| shcherbak | desaints: what model is it? | 05:53 |
| desaints | shcherbak: physical button on laptop to enable/disable wireless you mean? if so i do have one by the power button. and it wont change colors to blue indicating it is on. and will not do anything in linux when pressed. works 30 minutes ago in windows | 05:53 |
| desaints | shcherbak: hp-g60-441us | 05:54 |
| Hypoglybetic | Jordan_U, Us windows users never run that stuff. ..i mean, no. I think? I don't remember. | 05:54 |
| xangua | desaints: he was refering to the wireless | 05:54 |
| Hypoglybetic | Jordan_U, Normally I don't, but I do remember doing it for one of this newly burned disks, perhaps it was the server CD i verified? | 05:54 |
| shcherbak | desaints: the "blue" controls, those with Fn? and is rfkill list react to pressing switch nest to power button? | 05:55 |
| Jordan_U | Hypoglybetic: Try booting from the install CD and running the check. If it fails then you have your answer. | 05:55 |
| TheMoor | xangua plz check the thread i sent you | 05:55 |
| desaints | shcherbak: no it is it's own seperate button to press, no fn button necessary | 05:55 |

| muhammadnk | MWP: you can just ctrl+alt+f1 | 06:03 |
| desaints | shcherbak: applet cannot enable wifi | 06:03 |
| muhammadnk | MWP: or if you want it permanent, edit /etc/initrc | 06:03 |
| shcherbak | desaints: rfkill unblock <number from rfkill list> | 06:03 |
| sacarlson | DBoyz: well If the ChkFlsh failed I guess you need to find another usb flash disk | 06:04 |
| magik- | test | 06:04 |

| MWP | muhammadnk: /etc/initrc doesnt exist? | 06:04 |

| muhammadnk | MWP: ubuntu is derived from debian which is more than 10 years and most of it is the same. except for grub2 and small changes on startup but mostly it's applicable. | 06:10 |

| EOF-sensei | how would I go about switching back to the 10.10 style layout? | 06:54 |
| DJCharlie | basically what i need is to port forward ports 80, and 8566-8576 to the virtual ip. | 06:55 |
| Jordan_U | Hypoglybetic: You should definitely be seeing a menu at boot. | 06:56 |

| Hypoglybetic | >_> | 06:57 |

| axisys | fdisk -l shows only my internal disk | 06:58 |
| Hypoglybetic | Jordan_U, Okay, I booted into Grub, again, however there is NOT an error. | 06:58 |
| SwedeMike | skijunkie92: and you have followed https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EncryptedPrivateDirectory ? | 06:58 |
| Hypoglybetic | Jordan_U, it says "gnu grub version 1.98..........ubuntu4,and then a paragraph of bash-like editing is suported. Again, no actual error | 06:59 |
| Danny78 | can't get windows networked samba shares to mount on boot, fstab: http://paste.debian.net/104275 and smb.conf http://paste.debian.net/104276 | 07:00 |
| Jordan_U | Hypoglybetic: If you run "cat /boot/grub/grub.cfg" from the grub shell does it appear to be a normal text file (no unprintable garbage that would suggest corruption)? | 07:00 |
| xangua | TheMoor: lucid is no longer supported, try a newer version | 07:00 |
| R0_odge | Hello guys, I'm not able to tick .exe and .jar files as executable.Anyone can help? | 07:00 |
| Hypoglybetic | Jordan_U, :| out of disk | 07:01 |
| Hypoglybetic | Jordan_U, so what does that mean again? shoot myself? .... | 07:01 |
| Jordan_U | Hypoglybetic: That explains everything. You do indeed have a buggy BIOS, and it's easy to work around :) | 07:01 |
| Hypoglybetic | Jordan_U, Which BIOS? Dell PERC bios or motherboard BIOS? | 07:02 |
| skijunkie92 | SwedeMike: thanks man! | 07:02 |
| Jordan_U | Hypoglybetic: Motherboard. | 07:02 |

| JoshManders | Hi guys, I'm trying to create a USB bootdisk but it's not working | 07:03 |
| JoshManders | http://img1.uploadscreenshot.com/images/orig/1/1001582921-orig.jpg I get that error. | 07:03 |
| R0_odge | Hello guys, I'm not able to tick .exe and .jar files as executable.Anyone can help? | 07:03 |
| JoshManders | Using 10.10 | 07:03 |
| Jordan_U | Hypoglybetic: You can work around the problem by creating a small /boot/ partition near the beginning of the drive. That way everything that needs to be read through the BIOS is within your BIOSs limits. | 07:03 |
| Hypoglybetic | Jordan_U, I received other errors in ESXi, perhaps this will explain it. | 07:04 |
| skijunkie92 | u_learnin: with what? | 07:04 |
| Hypoglybetic | Jordan_U, oh, that doesn't sound tooo bad. | 07:04 |

| JoshManders | xangua: I did try that, and the screen loads but there's no options to install, just the blue UNetbootin screen with 1 option "Default" and a countdown from 10 that restarts after it gets to 0 | 07:05 |
| Hypoglybetic | Jordan_U, Do you have a link to a walkthrough or how am I to do this? | 07:09 |
| Blastuz | hi! | 07:09 |
| jrmcm | I just purchased a hawking tech hwun3 usb wifi stick, its running on a rt2879 chip and network manager doesn't recognize it. help | 07:10 |
| DJCharlie | can someone please help me? | 07:10 |
| jrmcm | dj: with what? | 07:10 |
| _jesse_ | DJCharlie: go to 192.168.1.1 or whatever your router's ip is, you should find facilities there | 07:11 |
| DJCharlie | jrmcm: i have 2 identical servers set up, 192.168.254.3 and 192.168.254.4. i have set up the virtual ip of 192.168.254.1 on both, and i have my router set to port foward both port 80, and ports 8566-8576 to 192.168.254.1 | 07:11 |
| DJCharlie | BUT, it's not working. what am i missing? | 07:12 |
| Jordan_U | Hypoglybetic: Looking for a good guide now. | 07:12 |
| Hypoglybetic | Jordan_U, Thanks :) | 07:12 |
| DJCharlie | _jesse_: i've got that part, but neither system is picking up. | 07:12 |
| DJCharlie | specifically, if i use my browser to go to http://192.168.254.1/test.html, i get a "connection reset" message. | 07:15 |
| SwedeMike | DJCharlie: time to start using tcpdump or wireshark to see what's going on. | 07:16 |
| kaushal | Can i discuss here about IPsec ? | 07:16 |
| vadimkiselev | Happy Binary Day! | 07:17 |
| Populus | Need help installing a Windows program through Wine. | 07:17 |
| SwedeMike | kaushal: I doubt you will find many people here who know about IPsec, it's probably better to try to find some kind of application specific channel instead of the ubuntu channel. | 07:17 |
| kaushal | SwedeMike: ok | 07:18 |
| kaushal | please guide me about irc channel for ipsec ? | 07:18 |
| kaushal | I dont see any channel for ipsec | 07:18 |

| Jordan_U | Hypoglybetic: I can't find a good guide, and it would take me a few hours to download the server iso. So I'll try to walk you through installing with a separate /boot (it's not too hard) but you'll have to describe or upload pictures of what you see. | 07:24 |

| skilz | rk: Please read http://pastebin.com/ejtE52Vj | 08:15 |
| ejv | ubuntu: no, in ubuntu-land, forget all of what you learned about device assignment in Windows, drives are labeled sd[a,b,c,d,etc.] | 08:15 |
| ubuntu | looked in dev there is no sdx | 08:15 |
| tinalas | the last thing I need is an unbootable system | 08:16 |
| ejv | ubuntu: sudo fdisk -l | 08:16 |
| Jordan_U | tinalas: Can you reboot to the grub shell and try running "background_image /path/to/image.png" and see if it gives any usefull error message? | 08:17 |
| nit-wit | tinalas, I am not a fan of it as well | 08:17 |
| ejv | background images are overrated | 08:17 |
| rk | ubuntu, in a terminal, type ls /dev/?d* and paste in pastebin.com the result | 08:17 |
| rk | skilz, i cant see an error in that log | 08:18 |
| tinalas | Jordan_U: how do I do that? | 08:18 |
| Ascavasaion | Can anyone here adviseme ona nice CD Player front-end for Gnome. Something lightweight that has usual play, pause, stop, skip, etc. buttons, and maybe an Internet lookup for track names? Rhythmbox etc are too robust. | 08:18 |
| Jordan_U | tinalas: Press "c" when you get to the grub menu to enter the grub shell. | 08:18 |
| ubuntu | the only one it finds is my usb drive | 08:18 |
| tinalas | Jordan_U: k I'll try | 08:18 |
| vadimkiselev | <Ascavasaion> VLC | 08:19 |
| rk | ejv fdisk -l, much nicer than ls /dev/?d* xD | 08:19 |
| ejv | ubuntu: so is your drive actually connected? | 08:19 |
| ejv | rk: yes, i applaud your helpful attitude though | 08:19 |
| skilz | rk: thats what I mean it's really weird | 08:20 |
| Ascavasaion | vadimkiselev, I am looking for something simple like the CD Player that came out with Windows 98. | 08:20 |

| skilz | My systerm just restarts gnome when I launch a audio application | 08:20 |
| ubuntu | Yes they are, I have 2 internal hard drives and one external | 08:20 |

| ubuntu | They are sata3 drives | 08:21 |
| ejv | ubuntu: sudo apt-get install pastebinit | 08:21 |
| dodgy_script | skilz, pastebin the lshd , have you tryed mplayer in terminal ? | 08:21 |
| mbvpixies78 | Can anyone give me pointers on how to slim down Ubuntu so it runs faster (1.7GHz, 512MB RAM) | 08:22 |
| skilz | dodgy_script: lshd? | 08:22 |
| rk | skilz, the [ number ] is the time the event happen since last reboot. Did you paste the last messages? or the ones before those? You are looking for the last message before the last reset in those numbers | 08:23 |
| ejv | mbvpixies78: slim and ubuntu tends to be an oxymoron; you can look at kernel customization though, if you're dead set on using an ubuntu core. | 08:23 |
| ubuntu | coldnt find package pastebinit | 08:23 |
| rk | skilz, in doubt, try to paste the whole file | 08:23 |
| smiley__ | does ubuntu work with USB 2.0 full speed ? | 08:23 |
| ejv | ubuntu: *ugh* you need to enable multiverse, sudo nano -w /etc/apt/sources.list | 08:23 |
| mbvpixies78 | ejv: Ubuntu works more smoothly and quickly tistros I've tried, surprisingly | 08:23 |
| skilz | rk: I done # cat /var/log/messages and pasted the last few lines | 08:24 |
| Madpilot | smiley__, of course | 08:24 |
| mbvpixies78 | ejv: do you think increasing my RAM from 512 to 1 or 2 GB will make a significant difference? | 08:25 |
| ubuntu | no luck not on cd or restricted | 08:25 |
| rollman | skilz have u tried :man Xorg and read part under -nolisten option not sure if it will help? | 08:25 |
| ejv | ubuntu: in that file, uncomment lines that say restricted, universe, and multiverse, then save it (ctrl + o, y, enter) | 08:25 |
| smiley__ | how do you enable DMA,32bit hard drive read on ubuntu ? | 08:25 |
| ejv | ubuntu: then, sudo apt-get update, followed by a, sudo apt-get install pastebinit | 08:26 |
| ejv | ubuntu: pardon me that's ctrl + x, y, enter | 08:26 |
| ubuntu | ok ejv thank you but it is late and I amm out of time | 08:27 |
| ubuntu | again thanks | 08:27 |
| ejv | ubuntu: that's unfortunate, i was hoping to look at your kernel output | 08:27 |
| ejv | good luck :) | 08:27 |
| rk | skilz, paste the whole file, we need the messages before the last reboot | 08:27 |
| skilz | ah ok | 08:28 |
| mbvpixies78 | ejv: I just don't think I'm ready to work on kernels | 08:28 |
| mbvpixies78 | ejv: meanwhile, I'm going to see if xfce helps | 08:28 |
| rk | mbvpixies78, increasing ram from 512 to 1 Gb will improve your experience a lot | 08:28 |
| ejv | mbvpixies78: increasing your ram can't hurt, what processor you working with? | 08:28 |
| rk | mbvpixies78, id say 2 Gb are a bit better, but 1 is minimum if you use internet browsers and watch movies | 08:29 |
| skilz | mbvpixies78: you can never have too much ram :p | 08:29 |
| mbvpixies78 | ejv: AMD Athlon XP 2100+ (1.7GHz) | 08:29 |
| ejv | mbvpixies78: ouch, i feel your pain | 08:30 |
| ejv | what socket is that... 939? | 08:30 |
| ejv | socket A! wow lol | 08:30 |
| mbvpixies78 | ejv: my main computer is Phenom quad core 2.6GHz, 8GB RAM but I'm not ready to switch over completely | 08:30 |
| mbvpixies78 | ejv: It should run ubuntu 10.04 fine with more ram though, dontcha think? | 08:31 |
| rk | mbvpixies78, actually a way to meassure the ram you need, is watch swap memory usage. If you are currently using swap, ram would improve your experience a lot. To check swap usage, you can use free, or top, or htop | 08:31 |
| sven_oostenbrink | Every time my ubuntu (server) reboots, it hangs after fsck of all filesystems.. a check in /var/log/messages shows JBD: barrier-based sync failed on dm-6:8 - disabling barriers.. Anyone knows how I can fix this and get my server to boot normally again? | 08:32 |
| mbvpixies78 | rk: I used system monitor and ram gets up to 75% or better and I've seen swap get full (2GB) | 08:32 |
| smiley__ | i wish ubuntu had a device manager like windows,so you could tweak hardware setings | 08:33 |
| rk | mbvpixies78, your swap is full? you sure need more ram | 08:33 |
| mbvpixies78 | rk: right now, I'm using 600MB, half of which is swap | 08:34 |
| ejv | smiley__: just out of curiosity, what exactly can you tweak via the device manager... | 08:34 |

Any projects or ready solutions for this? | 08:50 |
| rk | nesbitt, I dont really know your problem, but when resizing drives with lvm, a common error is to forget to resize the lvm group before resizing the file system :S | 08:51 |

| skilz | rk: Seems to work with apps I have installed after I installed the video card | 08:55 |
| nesbitt | rk: ok, i did extend the lvm beforehand with lvextend (following the ubuntu installation guide which seems pretty good). i haven't gotten any errors though, and when i open another terminal and do vgdisplay, the drive does appear to be resized. the process just hasn't ended | 08:56 |
| dodgy_script | alaing, you have not got gcc installed | 08:56 |
| rk | skilz, also, the [ numbers ] in /var/log/messages range from 0.000000 to some number. that number is the number of seconds from the last reboot to that even happening. We need a whole log of a whole session. From 0.00000 to the point where your computer reboot. With the last part of your log we cant see the part when it reboots | 08:57 |
| nesbitt | rk: the filesystem wasn't unmounted (because i couldn't work out how to do it) but it said it should be able to do it anyway (on the ubuntu installation guide). would it be a bad idea to unmount it now, while it's going? | 08:57 |

| rk | geboy, network manager in my experience makes its own thing over configuration files when its started. I would suggest you to use the gui interface. Is there anything you cant do from there. Just go to properties in the networkmanager toolbar icon, and select eth3. then mark always autoconnect | 09:06 |
| nicofs | h-dee, but will it download the arm-version on an x86 machine? | 09:07 |
| geboy | i have remove the network manager coz i have the bug with the privilages so i can't change anything | 09:07 |
| ajay__yadav | i tried python scripting but most packages are offering support for xls only | 09:08 |
| thekid | insmod: lsmod |grep iwl should tell you if the module is loaded, if it is then it works... but strage question cause it really should work 'out of the box' | 09:08 |
| Sickbock | Thekid: Here is my lsusb for my SD card problem: http://pastebin.com/9WhV7iSr | 09:08 |
| nicofs | h-dee, as for your compiz - you could add a line to start compiz to .bashrc in your home/user/ folder - it will get executed after login... | 09:09 |
| h-dee | nicofs: Sorry, I don't know about that. But, if you're using Synaptic, or aptitude to install packages, it will install those versions which are compatible with the current running machine i.e. if you're downloading from 64-bit, it will download 64-bit packages, and so wouldn't run on 32-bit. however, vice-versa is applicable very well. | 09:09 |
| ejv | insmod: i use iwl3945, works fine | 09:09 |

| nicofs | alternatively, if someone could tell me how to connect to a WPA2/PEAP encrypted network with iwconfig, i'd be happy aswell... | 09:10 |
| rk | nicofs, isnt trivial | 09:10 |
| insmod | nicofs: iwconfig wlan0 key | 09:11 |
| rk | nicofs, and you will need more tools than iwconfig | 09:11 |
| insmod | nicofs: iwconfig wlan0 key xxxxxx | 09:11 |
| bolek | ghfjf | 09:11 |
| h-dee | nicofs: try this 'sudo iwconfig <interface_name> essid "ACCESSPOINT" key PASSWORD' | 09:11 |
| nicofs | insmod, no key... username and password... | 09:11 |
| ejv | insmod: really. :) | 09:11 |
| rk | or maybe im mistaken ^^ | 09:11 |
| h-dee | nicofs: By the way, if I add it to .bashrc, wouldn't it run everytime I open bash? | 09:11 |
| insmod | ejv: dmesg says wlan0 no ipv6 routers present | 09:12 |
| insmod | ejv: dmesg also says wlan0 link is not ready | 09:12 |
| nicofs | h-dee, erm... good question... i always add things i want done at login to .bashrc... | 09:12 |

| insmod | agggggggggggggggggg | 09:12 |
| Williwaller | salut tous | 09:13 |
| h-dee | nicofs: I did added as a startup in init.d, but it don't work everytime (most of the time to be accurate) | 09:13 |
| sacarlson | nicofs might also look at wpasuplicant | 09:13 |
| nicofs | bonjour | 09:13 |
| rk | h-dee, I think /etc/profile is run once, and .bashrc everytime you launch a bash | 09:13 |
| rk | h-dee, not sure tho | 09:14 |
| h-dee | rk: thanks! I'll try that too. | 09:14 |
| nicofs | h-dee, just make an experiment: add some trivial application to .bashrc and then open some terminals and see how often that app gets started... ;-) | 09:15 |
| thekid | Sickbock: sorry but looks like you're out of luck, it's just not supported now. You have to wait or get an external usb reader, or just use your phone ... rare situation but it happens :( | 09:16 |

| alaing | Hi I'm trying to install my dlink dwa-140 wireless usb. I' following this tutorial http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1016108. I've downloaded the latest RAlink drivers and am stuck on point 10. make && make install. when i run that command I get the following errors http://pastebin.com/GLm7UZjm | 09:16 |
| h-dee | nicofs: Sure thing! | 09:16 |
| Sickbock | Thekid: That is very unfortunate... It used to work > 1.5 year ago.. But thanks for the help, I can stop looking then. :\ | 09:17 |

| ejv | alaing: missing build-essentials | 09:17 |
| nicofs | h-dee, i tend to reinstall my OS after 6 months max - because by then i have usually wrecked it | 09:17 |
| insmod | ejv: mine as well i have installed debiun ubuntu kubuntu zeven0s3 nothing works | 09:17 |
| geboy | rk: any other way to do that besides nm? | 09:17 |
| alaing | thanks let me try that | 09:18 |
| h-dee | nicofs: Well, that's how we learn things...BY MAKING MISTAKES. | 09:18 |
| ejv | insmod: it's normal for dmesg to say those things, i get it sometimes when my AP drops out, are you connecting via the GUI in the top right corner of the screen? that's what i do... lol | 09:18 |
| dodgy_script | alaing, sudo apt-get install gcc | 09:19 |

| insmod | ejv: didn't work so I dumped it | 09:19 |
| Williwaller | rww, Myrtti, damn sorry I wasn't paying attention ^^ | 09:19 |
| alaing | would build-essential include gcc? | 09:19 |
| ejv | insmod: you try various AP's? or just one... | 09:20 |
| h-dee | nicofs: I'm actually new to Linux, so I'ven't wrecked it more than once, but yeah I was champ in corrupting Windows. LOL! | 09:20 |
| ejv | alaing: i belive so, give it a whirl... | 09:20 |
| alaing | eah i just see the gcc part of the install | 09:20 |
| sacarlson | alaing: I know it includes a compiler I would have to say yes | 09:21 |
| insmod | ejv: that and backend | 09:21 |
| ejv | alaing: build-essential i belive is a big meta-package for gcc, g++, libc, dpkg-dev, etc. | 09:21 |
| memoryhole | alaing: yes it does | 09:21 |
| thekid | Sickbock: however if you connect your digital camera/cellphone/basically anything to your thinkpad it will just work... i actually use a phone/camera/small usb reader dongle... all works except the built-in reader .. pain in the a** , thinkpad here too | 09:21 |

| h-dee | nicofs: GTG! ciao! | 09:22 |
| Sickbock | Thekid: My camera doesn't have USB.. that is why I was searching. But external readers work fine.. It is ugly to have an external reader, but perhaps that is the right thing to do. Do you know why it is unsupported? I can try to do something about it although I have no experience with writing drivers. | 09:23 |

| ejv | bummer, that's just bad luck :S | 09:25 |
| thekid | Sickbock: it's only a guess but I noticed that SD-only devices all work ( phones,gps,cameras,whatever) but mmc readers do not... my guess is that it has to do with mmc support since that's a proprietary thing (just a guess) | 09:25 |
| ejv | insmod: which kernel version are you using | 09:25 |
| ejv | insmod: you try reverting/pushing kernels and observing behavioral changes? | 09:26 |

| insmod | ejv: very time consuming when i have no net eth0 is not going as well | 09:27 |
| insmod | ejv: no internet on it | 09:27 |
| insmod | ejv: what kernel you have? | 09:27 |
| thekid | Sickbock: however it might not be true since my very strange nokia external usb reader works also and it has mmc support ( but still only reads sd cards ).. so it might have to something with copyright sh** but not sure | 09:28 |
| insmod | ejv: what kernel you have? | 09:29 |
| Sickbock | Thekid: hmm. It is hard to find information on the internet. I am still googling. | 09:29 |

| insmod | histo: both the wlan0 and eth0 don't work iwl3945 and RTL8101E | 09:35 |
| insmod | histo: the eth0 is recognized wrong | 09:35 |
| insmod | histo: also it installs the older kernel | 09:35 |
| ejv | pusherman: by itself i wouldn't really consider it piping, just an argument being supplied to the binary... | 09:36 |
| histo | insmod: well it should install the older kernel unless you download a daily build. | 09:36 |

| histo | insmod: do you have another machine? or how did you get the install media? | 09:37 |

| waaghals | no, it's something I do whenever I forget what version I use - | 10:26 |
| Ariza | zach32 i used unetbootin, however it didin't work | 10:27 |
| waaghals | gutsy flutsy, hardy hero, or 10.wahtever | 10:27 |
| waaghals | AFAIK it's like typing 'uname -r' and then having to wait ages | 10:27 |
| waaghals | so, no it's not something I regularly do, but it just seems that a box with HTML text should take less time to start up then firefox on my machine. | 10:28 |
| sugoruyo | waaghals: maybe because it loads some html page... | 10:28 |
| histo | waaghals: cat /etc/issue but it's loading yelp | 10:28 |
| sugoruyo | it's not an empty box that gives you the output of uname -r | 10:28 |
| histo | waaghals: sorry cat /etc/issue will show you what version. hitting about ubuntu will pull up yelp | 10:28 |
| histo | waaghals: also I just noticed mine says natty but i'm running maverick so. | 10:28 |
| Williwaller | vadimkiselev, that's what I meant by "even when I set it not to (suspend)" | 10:28 |
| zach32 | <Ariza> if you can burn the cd just insert it and restart when the hp screen shows up hit f2 of f11 and change boot to cd the system will restart and the rest you can figure out from there | 10:29 |

| waaghals | Ariza, you can always try to run it live-boot. if it don't work, it'll be wrong :-) | 10:32 |
| Ariza | :) | 10:32 |
| Ariza | zach32, universel usb installer doesn't see my iso file | 10:33 |
| ddilinger | well thats blah, i can change it but it needs my password, and my password uses one of the disabled keys, what fun :) | 10:33 |
| skilz | Now I get the error: The Composite extension is not available. | 10:33 |
| john38 | anybody here use AviDemux | 10:34 |
| tish | i accidentally typed "mv file *" instead of "mv file ~". now all the files in the directory are gone. can this be reversed? | 10:34 |
| histo | !anyone | john38 | 10:34 |
| ubottu | john38: A large amount of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..." Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out? | 10:34 |
| skilz | when I click on Appearence Preferences > Visual Effects > Normal or Extra it says searching for drivers, then I get the error "The Composite extension is not available"...... Any ideas how to fix this? I think the nvidia drivers I installed may not be working correctly | 10:34 |
| histo | tish: where'd yo move them to? | 10:34 |
| Ariza | error occured: " your usb drive won't be bootable" | 10:35 |
| zach32 | <Ariza> did you rename the iso file? | 10:35 |
| Ariza | no | 10:35 |
| john38 | How do you merge video files with Avidemux | 10:35 |
| Ariza | zach32 this time it found the iso file, but error occured: " your usb drive won't be bootable" | 10:35 |
| histo | Ariza: please follow the directions from ubottu they are known to work. | 10:36 |
| histo | skilz: what video card? | 10:36 |
| tish | histo: i'm not sure if they were moved or just deleted. because i typed "mv file *" and it said: "mv: cannot stat `file'" | 10:36 |
| lahwran | are there any command line timer apps that show a progress bar? | 10:36 |
| tish | i originally intended to move just the 'file' | 10:36 |
| lahwran | basically sleep but with a progress bar | 10:36 |
| histo | tish: then nothing was changed. | 10:37 |

| hi5_ | i am using webchat on freenode, but its quite slow; any web alternatives? i cannot install clients here | 10:38 |
| histo | lahwran: what are you trying to time? | 10:38 |
| histo | hi5_: i'd just search for a java irc client | 10:38 |
| skilz | histo: Geforce 210 Galaxy, Ubuntu searched for the driver and downloaded it and installed | 10:38 |
| hi5_ | yes histo | 10:38 |
| hi5_ | it's working however...i just try this for somethime | 10:39 |
| lahwran | histo: I want a program to start again a certain amount of time after I close it. I'd rather know how much time is left than not. | 10:39 |
| skilz | histo: Funny thing is effects were working before I installed this video card | 10:39 |
| histo | skilz: did you restart X afterthe driver was installed? | 10:39 |
| hi5_ | someone here using a raid setup? | 10:39 |
| histo | lahwran: sleep | 10:39 |
| lahwran | !ask | hi5_ | 10:39 |
| ubottu | hi5_: Please don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line and in the channel, so that others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) | 10:39 |
| histo | lahwran: but for the progress bar I don't know | 10:40 |
| skilz | histo: I have restared the whole computer a few times | 10:40 |
| lahwran | histo: sleep doesn't do a progress bar ;) | 10:40 |
| hi5_ | to set raid do i also need lvm? | 10:40 |
| skilz | I have the System > Administation > NVIDIA X Server Settings | 10:40 |

| Ariza | ahah ok histo | 10:41 |
| Ariza | :) | 10:41 |
| histo | Ariza: you are using some app that I have no idea about. | 10:41 |
| hi5_ | Ariza: it's a live distribution that? | 10:41 |
| Ariza | hi5 it is related with my external hdd | 10:41 |
| geboy | help me. i really don't know what is wrong with my network | 10:41 |
| Ileden | Hi! Any idea why I can open a connection via network manager GUI, but trying to open it via CLI using "nmcli con up uuid [UUID]" only says: "Error: No suitable device found: no device found for connection 'Dna Default'." ? Once opened via GUI, dropping the connection with "nmcli con down uuid [UUID]" does work. | 10:41 |
| skilz | histo: Sure does... | 10:41 |
| histo | hi5_: he's trying to install from thumb drive. | 10:41 |
| Ariza | it is not bootable | 10:41 |
| geboy | its been days now | 10:41 |
| histo | skilz: hrm.. that's odd. | 10:41 |
| hi5_ | ok | 10:41 |
| hi5_ | and the issue/error is? | 10:42 |
| geboy | i keep getting insufficient privilage error | 10:42 |
| histo | hi5_: the issue is whatever app he is using to create the device rather than following the instructions in teh wiki. | 10:42 |
| geboy | each time i'm trying to edit network via nm | 10:42 |
| histo | geboy: is your user in admin? | 10:42 |
| skilz | histo: I should 'in theory' be able to use desktop effects... | 10:43 |
| geboy | i'v added myself to root group | 10:43 |
| hi5_ | ok..maybe he wants the trial and error approach :-) | 10:43 |
| user | What is wtmp? | 10:43 |
| geboy | histo: is root different with admin? | 10:43 |
| histo | skilz: so where are you getting this error? | 10:43 |
| histo | !sudo | geboy | 10:43 |
| ubottu | geboy: sudo is a command to run command-line programs with superuser privileges ("root") (also see !cli). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for more information. For graphical applications see !gksu (GNOME, Xfce), or !kdesudo (KDE). If you're unable to execute commands with sudo see: http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/fixsudo | 10:43 |
| histo | geboy: ubuntu uses the admin group for sudo access | 10:43 |
| histo | geboy: the root account is disabled by default. | 10:43 |
| skilz | histo: when I click on Appearence Preferences > Visual Effects > Normal or Extra it says searching for drivers, then I get the error "The Composite extension is not available" | 10:44 |
| geboy | so how am i going to do sudo in network manager? | 10:44 |
| histo | lahwran: http://www.unix.com/shell-programming-scripting/113836-spinning-bar-status-while-doing-something.html | 10:44 |
| skilz | histo: Sorry, System > Preferences > Appearence > | 10:45 |
| lahwran | histo: I have almost got a python solution done. thanks tho | 10:45 |
| geboy | histo: any suggestion? | 10:45 |
| user | ? | 10:45 |
| geboy | histo: should i go to terminal and type sudo network-manager in # prompt| | 10:46 |

| n2diy | hi5, what options? I checked the man page and figured out how to create an exclude file. | 10:48 |

| WillWill56 | Just wondering, what makes my Apache log file (and most other log files) become separated into compressed files like access.log.2.gz, access.log.3.gz, etc.? | 10:49 |
| n2diy | hi5, rsync backups up the .parentlock files | 10:49 |
| g[r]eek | Hi I am trying to enable php5-mysqli but the package isn't recognised when I try apt-get install it | 10:49 |

| WillWill56 | Thanks for the info! | 10:50 |
| hi5_ | n2diy: and putting other directories/files in that exclude? | 10:50 |
| hi5_ | just to see if something could work | 10:51 |
| zezu | whats the name of the package the looks up 32b deps and installs them ? | 10:51 |
| hi5_ | g[r]eek: not recognized? explaint that | 10:51 |
| zezu | i need 32b libgvfsdbus | 10:51 |
| n2diy | hi5, the other files and directories are being excluded. The problem is I'm backing up to a test box, and mozilla generates multible .parentlock files, so if I want to use firefox, I have to delete them. | 10:52 |
| akshay | need some help.. im trying to install teamviewer .. i typed irc.freenode.net in the terminal | 10:52 |
| g[r]eek | hi5_, E: Package 'php5-mysqli' has no installation candidate | 10:52 |
| akshay | but it has some dependencies, | 10:52 |
| akshay | how do i install those dependencies? | 10:52 |
| akshay | how do i find them online thru the terminal and install them? | 10:52 |
| hi5_ | n2diy: could me pls tell what the .parentlock does? | 10:52 |
| negev | hi, can someone tell me how to do a reverse ssh connection? basically i need to listen on this machine, have my friend connect out to me from where he is, and then i have a shell on his machine. | 10:54 |
| akshay | some help please? | 10:54 |
| s3r3n1t7 | In order to make sure a certain amount of scripts will be executed on bootup, would it be best to write an init.d script or to put an @reboot in the crontab, or some other method? | 10:54 |
| hi5_ | akshay: apt-get search "whattosearch" - without apices | 10:54 |
| zezu | negev: openssh-server | 10:54 |
| n2diy | hi5, /home/.mozilla/.parentlock tells the system that firefox is open, so when I rsync this box to my test box, I can't open firefox on the test box, because the .parentlock file is present. | 10:54 |
| akshay | thanks :) | 10:54 |
| akshay | im using mint 10 | 10:54 |
| zezu | negev: then just make him a user acct | 10:54 |
| hi5_ | akshay: it should have apt-get anyway | 10:55 |
| Myrtti | !derivatives | akshay | 10:55 |
| ubottu | akshay: There are some Ubuntu derivatives that we cannot provide support for due to repository and software changes. Please consult their websites for more information. Examples: gNewSense (support in #gnewsense), Linux Mint (see !mint), LinuxMCE (support in #linuxmce), CrunchBang (support in #crunchbang), BackTrack (support in #backtrack-linux), Ultimate Edition | 10:55 |
| hi5_ | n2diy: ok...too difficult for me to sort it out - for now | 10:55 |
| hi5_ | can i talk to someone actually using raid? | 10:56 |
| n2diy | hi5, roger that! Me too, thats why I'm here! | 10:56 |

| phoenix_ | and this occurs on multiple laptops | 10:58 |
| hi5_ | phoenix_: that a common problem, looked maybe for some standy options activated? | 10:58 |
| akshay | there is a problem with laptops using broadcomm wireless.. | 10:58 |
| hi5_ | phoenix_: even not with ubuntu? | 10:58 |
| akshay | they need another package | 10:58 |
| akshay | to make it work | 10:58 |
| phoenix_ | hi5_, no, all with ubuntu | 10:58 |
| essskaypeell | is there any way to make a window revert to its original size after resizing it? | 10:59 |

| phoenix_ | hi5_, i'm sorry, i didn't understand that | 11:06 |
| nico__ | hi O.o | 11:06 |
| hi5_ | phoenix with rmmod - from sudo - you remove a drviver module - you will have one for the wifi card | 11:06 |
| hi5_ | then you do a insmod for the same on...maybe works | 11:06 |
| hi5_ | it's like a plug and play reactivation | 11:07 |
| phoenix_ | ok,how can i find out which module to rmmod? | 11:07 |
| hi5_ | post me the result of lspci in private | 11:07 |
| hi5_ | and lets see | 11:07 |
| hi5_ | usually it has the name of the card chipset -eg broadcom like | 11:08 |
| erkan^ | have someone a same problem when i --> Moonlight in Chromium doesn't work (plug-ins) ? | 11:08 |
| hi5_ | so no one can help me with raid setup? | 11:08 |
| phoenix_ | console says lscpi commandnot found....what should i apt-get install? | 11:08 |
| hi5_ | phoenix impossible, write sudo lspci | 11:09 |
| hi5_ | it's basic software | 11:09 |
| phoenix_ | ok done, i wrote lscpi instead of lspci :P | 11:09 |

| oakbox | Hi all, I have a problem with terminal, sometimes when I run a command that then requires input (like a password) the terminal prints the "Enter password" text but then does not let me enter anything and will just carry on to say password failed. Hope that makes sense, any one have similar problems? | 11:17 |

| === claudia is now known as zumwoifi | ||
| alessandro_ | morning everyone | 11:20 |
| oakbox | @iflema Hi, I know it does not show a password, but I dont even get the chance to type anything (its like my enter key is pressed down constantly) but I have checked that, and I get the error over different machines as well... | 11:20 |
| Dumb_Jonny | Anyone know why cp -rf large files takes along time (transfer rate)? | 11:21 |
| rumpe1 | Dumb_Jonny, depends how large they are | 11:22 |
| Dumb_Jonny | rumpe1: such as a gig | 11:22 |
| Myrtti | Dumb_Jonny: depends on are you copying between partitions, devices and USB/Firewire ports | 11:22 |
| rumpe1 | Dumb_Jonny, and which filesystems are involved ... which interface is used .. and so on... | 11:22 |
| earwigs | <3 ubuntu | 11:23 |
| Dumb_Jonny | rumpe1: Myrtti: I'm going to try my method killing X and trying large files...it seems like gnome nautilus can copy a large file to a fat32 usb device faster than cli | 11:24 |
| Dumb_Jonny | I want to see if killing X speeds up the transfer | 11:25 |
| rumpe1 | Dumb_Jonny, highly doubtable | 11:25 |
| Dumb_Jonny | rumpe1: I thought so too, but no...nautilus is faster sadly | 11:25 |
| rumpe1 | Dumb_Jonny, perhaps it flushes the buffer later... you have to unmount the device for comparison, i guess | 11:25 |
| ddilinger | rumpe1: its odd, but restarting network-manager with nm-applet still running caused it to appear, but shutting down nm-applet and restarting it after network-manager restarted it was still hidden | 11:26 |
| rumpe1 | ddilinger, hmm... strange ... | 11:26 |
| iflema | oakbox: your using sudo? accross different machines yousay.... via ssh or different installs of ubuntu? | 11:27 |

| Hugo__ | Hello | 11:29 |
| Hugo__ | I need some help! | 11:29 |
| Dumb_Jonny | hi Hugo__ | 11:29 |
| ActionParsnip | Hugo__: ask away dude | 11:29 |
| Hugo__ | Thanks | 11:29 |
| Hugo__ | I have a Toshiba Satellite L655 | 11:29 |
| Ariza | " wireless device not ready ( firmware missnig) " How can i solve this | 11:29 |
| Hugo__ | With my old version of Ubuntu 10.10 the wireless would just work on the install | 11:30 |
| Hugo__ | I had to wipe ubuntu off my computer | 11:30 |
| Dumb_Jonny | Hugo__: and now your wifi doesn't work now? | 11:30 |
| ActionParsnip | Ariza: run: dmesg | less after a reboot and read the boot, it will tell you the expected firmware filename | 11:30 |
| Hugo__ | Yeah | 11:30 |
| Dumb_Jonny | i love the less command | 11:30 |
| alien_ | i dont have the twin panel option in my browser | 11:30 |
| ActionParsnip | Ariza: it's probably in the package - linux-firmware but you may need to download it manually and put it in /lib/firmware | 11:30 |
| hi5_ | Hugo__: so? | 11:30 |
| Hugo__ | I have a Broadcom STA Wireless Card. But I didn't have to enable it before. | 11:30 |
| Dumb_Jonny | Hugo__: might to install the xp driver to make your wifi device work | 11:30 |
| ActionParsnip | !broadcom | Hugo__ | 11:31 |
| ubottu | Hugo__: Help with Broadcom bcm43xx can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Driver/bcm43xx | 11:31 |
| Hugo__ | The xp driver? | 11:31 |
| Dumb_Jonny | Hugo__: sudo apt-get install ndisgtk | 11:31 |
| Hugo__ | I don't have any internet on Ubuntu | 11:31 |
| Dumb_Jonny | Hugo__: ndisgtk is a wifi driver wrapper | 11:31 |
| Hugo__ | None at all, so no sudo for me. | 11:31 |
| oakbox | iflema, it can be anything that requires input, so if I do a cmd with sudo or typeing my ssh password or even if I wanted to create a new user and enter user details at the command line... I have experienced it on ubuntu 10.04 9.10 and 8.04 (if I remember right) | 11:31 |
| alien_ | does the gnome desktop have to do with the twin pannel option y file browser ? | 11:31 |
| Hugo__ | Oh okay.. Well, my ethernet doesn't work either. | 11:32 |

| dosydoo1234 | quick question - i have a programme which opens up 30 windows. I place them in various workspaces. I close the programme, re open it - and all the windows appear in just 2 workspaces = 20 minutes to rearrange the whole lot again. Is there any way in which I can pre code / save the target windows to target workspaces. Thanks | 11:33 |
| rumpe1 | alien_, press f3 | 11:33 |
| Hugo__ | Yeah, it did work. | 11:34 |
| Hugo__ | I never had to enable the broadcom driver before | 11:34 |

| Dumb_Jonny | Hugo__: I was going to say just download it from the repos and put it on a flash drive and install it with dpkg | 11:34 |
| Hugo__ | Then I reinstall and it doesn't work.. | 11:34 |

| oakbox | dosydoo1234, Hi, what are the windows? If they are terminals you can add the size and pos as options in the cmd line when opening it. If they are not, I think you can use the placement feature in compiz to remember window placement but I have not tried that... | 11:39 |
| alien_ | hi5_, is no option for me to choose related to twin pannel there pal ;( | 11:39 |
| Hugo__ | okay, I just checked. | 11:40 |
| hi5_ | so? | 11:40 |

| ActionParsnip | !fixpanel | 11:50 |
| hi5_ | alex12: you mean a hex file viewer? | 11:50 |
| g0th | Myrtti: I never specified any encryption type so you can assume the default for everything | 11:51 |
| ActionParsnip | !panel | 11:51 |
| sveinse | ActionParsnip: a local file. The user sets either an http:// URL for remote download or an local path with the file:// . Similar to the way git repo path are specified | 11:51 |
| ActionParsnip | !resetpanel | 11:51 |
| ubottu | To reset the panel to defaults, type this in a !terminal: « gconftool --recursive-unset /apps/panel && killall gnome-panel » | 11:51 |
| ActionParsnip | thats it :) | 11:51 |
| Myrtti | g0th: did you choose to encrypt your home folder at installation, or did you choose to encrypt the partition at partition phase? | 11:51 |

| ActionParsnip | sveinse: if it's local you can just specify the path to the file | 11:51 |

| g0th | Myrtti: the home folder at installation | 11:52 |
| ActionParsnip | user: prefix with sudo | 11:52 |
| ActionParsnip | sveinse: it should as far as I know, if you are wgetting a local file it should just copy it (test it and see) | 11:53 |

| user | ActionParsnip, and how do I do that? | 11:58 |

| acicula_ | though rc.local is part of the old init system, so your own init script is probably nicer | 12:20 |
| s3r3n1t7 | acicula_, the ones that you can execute with /etc/init.d/* | 12:20 |
| coz_ | mmm I know nautilus twin panels are in 11.04 can someone check here for maverick? | 12:20 |
| Dumb_Jonny | s3r3n1t7: what kind of script are you talking about? | 12:21 |
| Hugo__ | There are twin panels in 10.10. | 12:21 |
| coz_ | ok | 12:21 |
| Hugo__ | If you mean, in nautilus | 12:21 |
| coz_ | yes | 12:21 |
| coz_ | just checking for alien who wanted twin panels | 12:21 |
| bahax | coz: you can add as many as you want | 12:21 |
| coz_ | but apparenlty he left | 12:21 |
| s3r3n1t7 | Dumb_Jonny, our server serves, among other stuff, a batch of ofbiz instances | 12:22 |
| Hugo__ | Can someone tell me how to private chat someone on here.. | 12:22 |
| Hugo__ | Well, not private chat but like @name | 12:22 |
| coz_ | Hugo__, are you using xchat? | 12:22 |
| Dumb_Jonny | s3r3n1t7: i'd say yes to the init.d/ and you'll need to check the /ect/rc* files too | 12:22 |
| Bokkie | Hugo: just type the name... 8-) | 12:22 |
| Hugo__ | I'm on webchat atm. | 12:22 |
| ActionParsnip | Hugo__: try: /msg nick hi | 12:22 |
| s3r3n1t7 | Dumb_Jonny, aight, i'll have a look | 12:23 |
| ActionParsnip | Hugo__: remember to ask first | 12:23 |
| Hugo__ | ? | 12:23 |
| Hugo__ | Oh right, I know what you mean. | 12:23 |
| Hugo__ | Not to just start private chatting someone. | 12:23 |
| Dumb_Jonny | s3r3n1t7: man update-rc.d | 12:25 |
| s3r3n1t7 | Dumb_Jonny, i'm fairly sure i can write the scripts, just wasn't entirely sure wether crontab and @reboot would be better or not then init | 12:26 |
| kibibyte | is there any way to restrict access to particular path in CVS repository ? | 12:26 |
| Dumb_Jonny | cool | 12:26 |
| ActionParsnip | s3r3n1t7: or you can reference it in /etc/rc.local (above the exit 0 line) | 12:27 |
| Narcoleptic_Devi | the thing is i want to creat an IRC app but i do not know what measures to take in order to begin | 12:27 |
| Dumb_Jonny | s3r3n1t7: i meant that as a friendly suggestion...not RTFM | 12:27 |
| s3r3n1t7 | Dumb_Jonny, ofcourse, i didn't take it as a RTFM, i was merely explaining what I was mostly looking for. ActionParsnip, thank you. | 12:28 |

| ActionParsnip | Rook: you may be able to use the server ISO and add it as a repo | 12:30 |
| iceroot | Rook: apache2, php5 mysql-server should be on the cd | 12:31 |

| acicula_ | glaceman: typically /usr and its various subdirectory. the structure is not in any way similar to windows though | 12:31 |

| glaceman | i have sbackup installed, if i select /usr for backup, will i have all my programs running if i restore them on a fresh ubuntu installation ? | 12:32 |
| * Guest40554 help | 12:32 | |
| s3r3n1t7 | aliverius, make sure this user has no access, but i suppose it's theoretically possible to create a user with a password, then unset that password. Do note the serious security implications. | 12:32 |
| acicula_ | glaceman: programs arent grouped in directorys by programs but by functionality or filetype/purpose | 12:32 |
| glaceman | acicula_: i guess i got a lot to learn :D | 12:33 |
| Dumb_Jonny | glaceman: say if i download and install "nmap" through the repos, the bin will be placed in /sbin/ because it needs sudo to run. if I install a .deb package I download off a website that doesn't require sudo to run will be in /usr/local/ | 12:33 |
| acicula_ | glaceman: its better/easier to just backup your home directory with data and store the description of your system installation(instead of the actual installation). to reinstall simply use the description to reinstall (exactly the same) system and put back your data (which only resides in /home/<youruser> | 12:33 |
| gavimobile | erUSUL: no, I beieve its called disk utility | 12:34 |
| glaceman | thanks acicula_ | 12:35 |
| acicula_ | well there are some server things going on in /var too, but typically you wouldnt need to go there as a normal user | 12:35 |
| glaceman | under the backup, by default it includes /var, /home, /usr/local, /etc/...that should be enough ? | 12:35 |
| acicula_ | yup | 12:36 |

| ActionParsnip | DarkStar1: then restore from backup is gonna be the way | 12:37 |
| Dumb_Jonny | backing up you should just do your home directory... | 12:37 |
| acicula_ | glaceman: /var/ is the system datastore, /usr/local is for installing software system wide thats not managed by the packagemanager and /etc contains the global system configuration | 12:37 |

| Dumb_Jonny | see ya guys...time for work | 12:38 |
| acicula_ | glaceman: typically jsut /home would be enough, but if you run things like databases or webservers and such you would want /var too | 12:38 |

I have noticed that this works on another Ubuntu 10, but not on my desktop Ubuntu. There are no errors with the software in other words, but with the procedure here. What am I doing wrong? | 12:51 |
| HugoGF | Well, when the driver used to show up in the proprietary drivers it was called Broadcom STA Wireless ... | 12:51 |
| popey | Rogerr: you don't need to "sudo su" to "configure" or to "make" usually sudo is only required for the "make install" step | 12:51 |
| popey | Rogerr: you will end up with lots of files owned by root in your home directory which is less than ideal | 12:52 |
| Rogerr | I see, but what is it that is wrong if the makefile is missing? Can I show you the output from the makefile? | 12:52 |

It starts booting nicely (if splash is passed also see the splash screen, I assume this comes from the initrd.lz so I take it it receives that nicely too), however during the kernel boot it gives a kernel panic like error (don't have it handy now) | 13:19 |
| freakynl | Is it easy to update the kernel in the live image? | 13:19 |

| Amivit | I have a server that is freezing periodically and suspect either a defective harddrive in the array, or the actual raid controller is unstable. How do I find out the fastest? Btw, the raid array is listed as "optimal" in bios. | 13:24 |

| bagong | hy all | 13:25 |
| Amivit | erUSUL, unfortunately not. Nothing: Just random freezes. Although it happens more often when doing disk intensive things. I tried booting from a live OS to test the filesystem and the server even froze from there, | 13:26 |
| erUSUL | Amivit: so all we can do is shoot in the dark ... looks like a hardware issue if happens with two different OS's 8 kernel version or whatever) | 13:27 |
| junichi | Guessin no one has heard of it.... Anywho, when i run the game it lags really hard, like 3.5fps. and all i ever get is turn it into openGL mode but there is no way to do that in the client.. | 13:27 |
| erUSUL | junichi: is windows game run in wine? checked appdb? #winehq channel ? | 13:28 |
| junichi | No its the linux version of the client. | 13:28 |
| Amivit | Yes exactly. The thing is it is a production server and my time span will be low when given the chance to take a look at it. So just trying to plan ahead on where I should start. Maybe move the harddrive including the pci raid controller to a different computer and see if it freezes there ? | 13:28 |
| junichi | Would be the type of linux im using maybe? | 13:29 |

| Krigo | Is it possible to reinstall ubuntu while keeping the /home directory? nearly everything is corrupted but home | 13:42 |
| popey | yes Krigo | 13:42 |
| user____ | Hi, I've set up the dns for my domain but it isn't resolving - the domain as registered yesterday - how long should it take to work | 13:42 |
| Ronnie | does somebody know a zero-conf email server (which can only send, not receive) which listens on port 25 of localhost. its only for testing purpose | 13:43 |
| Krigo | How would I go by doing that? As I Just had to fsck a corrupted ext4 partition | 13:43 |
| rumpe2 | Krigo, backup... and i would recommend a separate /home-partition for your next installation | 13:43 |
| popey | Krigo: install from a live cd over the top, and choose "manual partitioing" and make sure you _untick_ formatting and it will remove everything except /home | 13:43 |
| k0d3g3ar | Ronnie, sendmail? | 13:43 |
| FCGreg | Krigo: Yes, it should be no problem, although it may be a little tricky if you use encrypted home directories or something. | 13:43 |
| popey | rumpe2: no need, the installer supports install over the top and keep /home | 13:43 |
| Krigo | that's good, so it'll keep stuff like home/ac/Documents? :) | 13:43 |
| Ronnie | k0d3g3ar: is sendmail zero-conf? | 13:43 |
| Myrtti | user____: AFAIK dns information propagation can take up to three days. | 13:43 |
| popey | yes Krigo | 13:43 |
| Krigo | Thanks. :) | 13:43 |
| orthy | yes | 13:43 |
| FCGreg | Krigo: just make sure you have a backup first, OK | 13:44 |
| k0d3g3ar | Ronnie, no... but its not too hard. Why 0 config? That's an opportunity for open relay spambots if I've ever heard of one | 13:44 |
| rson | Where are the settings from System > Preferences > Keyboard > Layouts > Options stored? I can make changes here but the changes don't stick. I'd rather go find whatever file they live in and change it manually. | 13:44 |
| oCean | Ronnie: checking repos for 'nullmailer' returns package ... nullmailer :p maybe an option? | 13:45 |
| Ronnie | oCean: ill have a look | 13:45 |
| Ronnie | i need it in combination with django | 13:45 |
| vega- | rson: i have the same problem, have to type "setxkbmap fi" after every boot in a terminal, frustrating | 13:46 |
| k0d3g3ar | ne1 know of an alternative to GtkRecordMyDesktop that will do screen recordings to video, but to a format that Windows users can user without needing conversion? (gtkRecordMyDesktop saves as OGV)? | 13:46 |
| rumpe2 | vega-, why not put it in .bashrc ? | 13:47 |
| rson | vega-: A long time ago I had set CapsLock to an alternate Escape, now it won't let me change it back. Freaking frustrating. | 13:47 |
| rumpe2 | k0d3g3ar, vlc should play ogv on windows | 13:47 |
| k0d3g3ar | rumpe2, I can't expect these users to install VLC. They are corporate/govt users and don't have install rights on their machines | 13:48 |
| insmod | rumpe2: that wont fix it it would have to be in rc.d or init.d | 13:48 |
| kapoloni | when debugging libc code, i saw that some functions in libc are doing: "mov (%esp),%ebx" just after call, this mean that they are saving the eip inside ebx... why would they want the return address inside ebx? are they going to change the code or what? | 13:48 |
| vega- | rumpe2: that solves it only if u use a terminal | 13:48 |
| anon33_ | I'm on a Macbook Pro on 10.10 and the brightness controls just suddenly stopped working for me. Is there a way I can control the display brightness without them? Using nvidia-blkms | 13:49 |
| insmod | rumpe2: or dmrc xinitrc etc | 13:49 |
| rumpe2 | ah, k | 13:49 |
| Krigo | Just wondering, does reinstalling without formatting preserve the whole contents of home, or just the contents of documents, pictures, etc? | 13:49 |
| vega- | rumpe2: insmod: but those are just workarounds anyway, would like to fix it the right way.. | 13:49 |

| ranjan | anybody tried VBox 4?? | 13:50 |
| FCGreg | Krigo: It keeps the whole home by default. You can customize if you need to , or may have to if you had strange partitions to begin with (doesn't sound like you did) | 13:50 |
| Krigo | FCGreg: It's just that most of my ubuntu partition corrupted, and after repairing it with fscking it refuses to properly run, but the contents of my home is perfect. | 13:51 |

| FCGreg | carl-eric: also, what file system are you using underneath ecrypt-fs? some file systems have problems with large directories/trees all by themselves. | 13:57 |
| carl-eric | FCGreg: uh... I think I didn't change the default. Probably ext4 (not at home right now where I could check, but it's definitely either ext3 or ext4.) I didn't have this problem on my previous machine, which was plain ext3 without eCryptfs. | 13:58 |

| FCGreg | carl-eric: unless you were running this configuration prior to ecrypt i would test in the same confirmation without using ecrypt with the same underlying filesystem to ensure your raid or something else isn't causing a slowdown | 13:58 |
| carl-eric | FCGreg, the RAID is the linux kernel raid set up by the Ubuntu installer. The previous machine was the same kind of setup, only slower disks and less cores ;-) | 13:59 |

| FCGreg | carl-eric: i understand. that is true, and it *does* depend on how the affected application is calling the directory. to work around that you will need any encrypted filesystem solution that does NOT do file-by-file encryption in userspace. in other words, you will need something that gives you an encrypted container for your home directory and mounts it for you. perhaps something with luks integration. | 14:05 |

| Tamale_ | Mr_Copro_Encepha: Do you have another computer you can compare them to? | 14:05 |
| Um_cara_qualquer | ActionParsnip, it's the 4º up down | 14:05 |
| carl-eric | FCGreg, that's what I thought. Is it possible to set up e.g. luks so it will be mounted upon login (maybe with pam_mount)? | 14:06 |
| Mr_Copro_Encepha | I can fish out a laptop I think. | 14:06 |
| Mr_Copro_Encepha | Tamale_: I can fish out a laptop I think. | 14:06 |
| FCGreg | carl-eric: i haven't checked integrated solutions like this for Linux lately, but you basically want something like filevault on the Mac platform. | 14:07 |
| Mr_Copro_Encepha | Tamale_: I'll try that and pop back in if I still can't figure it out. | 14:07 |
| ActionParsnip | Um_cara_qualquer: what does that mean? Does the hash match? | 14:07 |
| HugoGF | What's the thing I type in terminal to get an all permissions nautilus? | 14:07 |
| HugoGF | gksu... | 14:07 |
| Mr_Copro_Encepha | ActionParsnip: I'm not sure I follow. | 14:07 |
| vega- | HugoGF: gksudo nautilus | 14:08 |
| Um_cara_qualquer | ActionParsnip, it matches with the 4º up down | 14:08 |
| carl-eric | FCGreg: I have dealt with pam_mount before, also with luks, and also truecrypt. Individually, I can handle them easily :-) I just don't know how to do auto-mounted home directories with pam_mount | 14:08 |
| Tamale_ | Mr_Copro_Encepha: Mines literally says "Button one" | 14:08 |
| Tamale_ | err Button 1 | 14:08 |
| FCGreg | carl-eric: maybe you can search for "filevault ubuntu" or similar to get some results. (sorry I haven't researched those solutions in a while... in the past i had to do that with my own scripted solutions) | 14:08 |
| ActionParsnip | Mr_Copro_Encepha: compare the generated hash to the one on the site. Does it match? | 14:08 |
| Tamale_ | make sure yours does as well | 14:08 |
| HugoGF | thanks | 14:08 |
| carl-eric | FCGreg: Ok, thank you, will do | 14:08 |
| Um_cara_qualquer | ActionParsnip, it's what the md5sum does right?! | 14:08 |
| HugoGF | vega- Thanks! :) | 14:08 |
| HugoGF | vega-: Thanks! | 14:08 |
| HugoGF | Okay, how do I do it? | 14:08 |
| FCGreg | carl-eric: you're welcome. good luck with it | 14:09 |
| Mr_Copro_Encepha | ActionParsnip: Yes. All good on the install. Was working fine till a 3 year old helped out. | 14:09 |

| ccw | Hi all. I'm setting up a machine running 10.10, and I'd like to set up a communal scratch space where all the users can read and write all the files without having to change permissions everytime something is added. I think I'm clear on how to do this from the command line manually, but am I reinventing the wheel? Is there already a directory for this sort of thing by default? | 14:13 |
| Mr_Copro_Encepha | Tamale_: using xev of xinput? | 14:13 |
| vega- | ccw: no there isn't | 14:13 |
| Mr_Copro_Encepha | ccw: /tmp ? | 14:13 |
| vega- | "users can read and write all the files" <-- that is not /tmp | 14:14 |
| produnis | dear supporters, I am runnning Lucid64bit, and I need a specific file from the Karmic release... where could I get it? | 14:14 |
| ccw | Mr_Copro: I had in mind to make this a semi-permanent dropbox. Isn't /tmp cleared out periodically? | 14:14 |
| freakynl | ccw: no cause each user has it's own 'uname' settings which determine default permissions on files | 14:14 |
| hi-there | hh | 14:14 |
| vega- | produnis: download the package from packages.ubuntu.com and extract it with dpkg -x | 14:14 |
| rson | freakynl: 'umask' | 14:14 |
| freakynl | rson: yea my bad :) | 14:14 |
| produnis | thx vega | 14:14 |
| Mr_Copro_Encepha | ccw: vega- is right, all user's cant read. | 14:14 |
| ccw | hmm... isn't this a common problem? How do people usually handle it? | 14:15 |
| freakynl | ccw: you can force permissions from the higher directory iirc. Did this on a webserver once | 14:15 |
| kukman | I have not working bluetooth device in my acer aspire 1551. In the bottom part of netbook writes "Bluetooth module Foxconn BCM92046". Can i use it in linux? | 14:16 |
| kukman | I can't google it, because I get many pages with trash sites | 14:16 |
| Mr_Copro_Encepha | ccw: you can also set the group sticky bit, and make sure all users are in that group. Don't remember the syntax, though. | 14:16 |
| Mr_Copro_Encepha | ccw: try man chmod, it's in there somewhere I think. | 14:16 |
| rumpe2 | Mr_Copro_Encepha, chmod g+s ... as i remember | 14:17 |
| ccw | yeah, I think that's what I'd come up with | 14:17 |
| Tamale_ | It's very dissapointing that no one has been able to help with my X11 config. I thought having to do things manually like this was a thing of the past anyway! | 14:17 |
| Mr_Copro_Encepha | rumpe2: and you'll still have to set the umask for users, right? | 14:17 |
| ccw | seems like every time I do this sort of thing, I find out 5 min later that ubuntu has some slick polished version of my crappy solution, so I figured I'd check | 14:17 |
| Mr_Copro_Encepha | Tamale_: what was the issue? | 14:18 |
| Wolfsherz | Tamale_: ask the question again | 14:18 |
| Tamale_ | My computer keeps crashing when starting up.. completely freezing. | 14:18 |
| insmod | i hate kde network manager -- really rally | 14:18 |
| Tamale_ | just trying to rotate one of my two flat panels.. | 14:18 |
| hi-there | too bad | 14:19 |
| Mr_Copro_Encepha | Tamale_: what do you see on the screen? | 14:19 |
| Tamale_ | it's blank | 14:19 |
| Tamale_ | I have to reboot into the recovery console to troubleshoot | 14:19 |
| Mr_Copro_Encepha | Tamale_: can you ssh/telnet in? | 14:19 |
| ccw | Mr_Copro: I didn't think I'd need umask though. Do I? I just create a group that owns the scratch directory, add the users I want to that group, and maybe a symlink to the scratch directory in everybody's home directories if I'm feeling magnanimous, right? | 14:19 |
| Tamale_ | nope, nothing is responsive - I can't even use alt-sysreq-b | 14:19 |
| Tamale_ | it's a very hard freeze | 14:20 |
| vega- | is /etc/motd a config file? | 14:20 |
| ccw | message of the day | 14:20 |
| hi-there | if i were you i would reinstall my system | 14:20 |
| vega- | yeah, but does it get overwritten if i customize it? | 14:21 |
| sipior | hi-there: find somewhere else to play. | 14:21 |
| Mr_Copro_Encepha | Tamale_: when it's blank. I had a problem like that on one of my laptops with the nvidia driver, alt-sysreg-b did not work, but I could ssh in. Otherwise the machine looked dead. It was a dual GPU setup though. Any of this sound familiar? | 14:21 |
| ccw | vega:I didn't think so | 14:21 |
| Tamale_ | This is a single GPU with dual outputs | 14:21 |
| Tamale_ | and I've tried ssh | 14:21 |
| Tamale_ | caps lock doesn't do anything either | 14:21 |

| hi5 | hi | 14:22 |
| hi5 | maybe you want to give yorself a different nickname | 14:22 |
| Mr_Copro_Encepha | ccw: I don't know; it depends on the default umask. The group sticky only sets the GID of files, so if the file is still rw------- and not rw-rw---- it won't do what you want. | 14:23 |
| Tamale_ | Would I have better luck with the open-source radeon driver? | 14:23 |
| ccw | Tamale: I finally got to the bottom of a similar graphics snafu, so just to check: have you by chance looked at the graphics card itself? Exploding capacitors cause some really odd problems | 14:23 |

| Tamale_ | but no, I haven't checked | 14:24 |
| Tamale_ | I'm positive it's a rotation / configuration issue.. because if I run in a normal side-by-side mode it works fine for weeks | 14:24 |
| hi5 | clarezoe: tryed a search? | 14:24 |
| Mr_Copro_Encepha | clarezoe: sudo updatedb;locate -b cert.pem | 14:24 |
| Nanoha | hi all. Apache2. I have a website: www.ayeka.net. I want the same page to come up if I type in the www. or not (ayeka.net). Right now, I get some default page that lists directories if I don't have the www. How can I fix this? | 14:24 |
| Tamale_ | Nahoha - #apache ? | 14:25 |
| Mr_Copro_Encepha | Tamale_: And you've tried to remove and regenerate the xorg.conf (backing it up of course) in recovery mode? | 14:25 |

| Tamale_ | Mr_Copro_Encepha: I've even had success rotating with xrandr | 14:25 |
| Tamale_ | but of course, that doesn't work when i reboot | 14:25 |
| ccw | If it's a dell, I'd definitely check. When I discovered the first one, went around the office to the various dells, and we've now got a collection of (no kidding) about 10 cards with blown caps. Not all were malfunctioning, others only intermittently. Apparently, it's one more annoying thing to rule out | 14:26 |
| clarezoe | thanks sam-_- , it is a ca certificate for my wireless connect at school | 14:26 |
| Mr_Copro_Encepha | Tamale_: Maybe the hack here is to put xrandr into your startup applications under gdm. I don't have any better suggestions now. | 14:26 |
| sam-_- | clarezoe, so not from ubuntu? | 14:27 |
| clarezoe | it says /etc/pki/tls/cert.pem, but I don't have pki under etc | 14:27 |
| htorque | hello everyon! what does "mirc colors" in xchat do? only "local colors" seem to change the interface colors. | 14:27 |
| sam-_- | clarezoe, then the specific package isn't installed | 14:27 |
| Tamale_ | Mr_Copro - I thought about that - but it needs to be run as root, right | 14:27 |
| clarezoe | sam-_-, the instruction says gnome, so I suppose it is buildin with gnome? | 14:27 |
| Mr_Copro_Encepha | Nanoha: Look up ServerAlias | 14:28 |
| sam-_- | clarezoe, i guess you have to get the cert. from your school | 14:28 |

| acicula_ | Roasted_: i have not | 14:49 |
| m8 | damo22, yes | 14:50 |
| magowiz | Riverguard: so you should resize your win partition to 50% , after that you can start the installer | 14:50 |
| Roasted_ | acicula_, gets a little old. I'm a terminal junkie, but really? It's a bit of a headache when grandma moves files to/from an external drive and permissions are out of wack and I need to remote in to issue a chmod -R command. | 14:50 |
| damo22 | m8: your best bet is to mount the cd and create a cd image of it | 14:50 |
| Riverguard | magowiz: how do i do that? | 14:51 |
| mlaski | Why fbset does not affect current display??? framebuffer works in 640x480 and: fbset -fb /dev/fb0 -xres 1024 -yres 768, does not change the resolution??? please help | 14:51 |
| livingdaylight | can someone tell me whether application icons are move-around-able? | 14:51 |
| m8 | damo22, and how i can extract the file? | 14:52 |
| Riverguard | magowiz: sorry im still new to this | 14:52 |
| sam-_- | livingdaylight, try this command: alacarte | 14:53 |
| John-Smith | thanks damo22 | 14:53 |
| magowiz | Riverguard : using gparted you can choose the partition and then right click on it should give you the option Resize | 14:53 |
| acicula_ | Roasted_: its annoying if it doesnt do what it says on the box. Did you check the sub files are all owned by the same user? | 14:53 |
| Roasted_ | acicula_, that's where the issue is. The files came through as root:root on the external, but if you take ownership of the root folder, you SHOULD be able to take owner ship of the sub files/folders inside. Dolphin does this just fine. | 14:54 |
| Daniel | Anyone familiar with VBox emulator? | 14:54 |
| livingdaylight | sam-_-, not what I need... want to move /re-arrange panel but application icons such as X-chat and network manager keep sliding to the right, and can't get /squeeze anything on other side | 14:55 |
| Daniel | I am trying to install it and I get dependency error yet the required item is already installed. | 14:55 |
| === le0 is now known as le0n | ||
| === le0n is now known as le0- | ||
| sam-_- | Daniel, the open source edition or from the vbox website | 14:55 |
| Roasted_ | acicula_, it basically will transfer perms, but not ownership/group, which is kind of a royal PITA that there's no other way to do it than terminal. Again, I have no issue with it, but grandma does. Grandma would rather buy a windows license at the moment... | 14:56 |
| Riverguard | magowiz: how do i get it down to 50%? | 14:56 |
| Daniel | VBox website download. Should I try from the Synaptic manager software? | 14:56 |
| agentgasmask | Does anyone have a good guide to installing Zimbra OSE on ubuntu server 10.04 LTS? | 14:56 |
| acicula_ | Roasted_: well not recursively disowning root is a good thing i suppose, but cant you access the external disk as a user and avoid having the files owned by root in the first plaec? | 14:57 |
| magowiz | Riverguard : you should see an arrow on the right, drag it to left until you get it | 14:57 |
| rubbs | Daniel: depends. do you need USB support or RDP support? | 14:57 |
| sam-_- | Riverguard, if your win partition is too full you may not be able to get it down to 50% | 14:57 |
| Roasted_ | acicula_, typically yeah - but when I take a folder that is owned by root with files in it, it comes down as owned by ME since I'm writing that folder to my home directory. But the files inside remain as root... hence the issue. | 14:57 |
| Daniel | Don't know what rdp is but USB support isn't needed. | 14:57 |
| gobbe | ao: ok, so your home is onlyone with encryption | 14:57 |
| acicula_ | Roasted_: also how is she moving files as a user which are subsequently owned by root? | 14:57 |
| gobbe | ao: sorry, wrong guy | 14:57 |
| magowiz | Riverguard: sam-_- is right you should have some free space on win partition | 14:58 |
| Roasted_ | acicula_, yeah. | 14:58 |
| sam-_- | Daniel, then try like this: sudo apt-get install virtualbox-ose | 14:58 |
| DJones | 14:41 >>> John-Smith!~John-Smit@122.161.243.218 | 14:58 |
| Daniel | Okay. Be back in a bit. | 14:58 |
| cjae | what is nvidia driver versuin included with 10.10? | 14:58 |
| cjae | version | 14:59 |
| acicula_ | Roasted_: you cant copy files and have copies owned by root, unless you are root | 14:59 |
| damo22 | m8: you should insert the scratched cd, UNmount the cd, then run this command: dd if=/dev/cdrom of=/tmp/cdimage.iso conv=notrunc,noerror | 14:59 |
| m8 | ok damo22 and how i can extract the file? | 14:59 |
| Roasted_ | acicula_, either way if you're in nautilus as root, you should be able to handle this task. Dolphin can do it without an issue. | 14:59 |
| Roasted_ | acicula_, that's another thing I may have forgotten to mention, about using gksudo nautilus. | 14:59 |
| Roasted_ | acicula_, gksudo nautilus. | 14:59 |
| m8 | if is corrupted? | 14:59 |
| m8 | :o | 14:59 |
| deltaray | So for Apache on Ubuntu and enabling modules I've just been going into the modules-enabled directory and symlinking myself. Is there some script to do things like that I should be using instead? | 15:00 |
| sam-_- | livingdaylight, to my knowledge you can't move icons in the notification area. | 15:00 |
| damo22 | m8: then you have a image of the cd in /tmp directory | 15:00 |
| Daniel | It is downloading now. Thank you. | 15:00 |
| Daniel | I will let ya know how it goes when it installs. | 15:00 |
| jarnos | Why isn't nvidia driver visible in Additional drivers dialog of 10.10 even if I have nvidia card? It used to be there in some previous releases.. | 15:00 |
| sam-_- | livingdaylight, on the panel however it's possible. right click to unlock. then move with holding left mouse button | 15:00 |
| acicula_ | Roasted_: running nautiuls as root may well cause half the problems you are having | 15:00 |
| Roasted_ | acicula_, point is, nautilus as root DOES NOT work in the same demeanor that dolphin does. | 15:01 |
| livingdaylight | sam-_-, thank! | 15:01 |
| Roasted_ | I hate to install dolphin just to change necessary perms recursively via gui | 15:01 |
| Roasted_ | BUT guess I'll have to. | 15:01 |
| acicula_ | Roasted_: well i dont know how nautiuls behaves when ran as root | 15:01 |
| acicula_ | Roasted_: running it as root is sheer madness though | 15:02 |
| Daniel | It is installed and running. I will try XP now. I appreciate the assist. | 15:02 |
| sam-_- | acicula_, why? i don't run it as root but i don't see too many problems as long as your are careful | 15:02 |
| damo22 | m8: then you can mount the cd image using the command: sudo mkdir /media/tmpcd && sudo mount /tmp/cdimage.iso -o loop -t iso9660 /media/tmpcd and recover all the files you need | 15:02 |
| rubbs | Daniel: np. glad we could help | 15:02 |
| Daniel | I downloaded from website because I thought that was better than getting from Synaptic. | 15:03 |
| Riverguard | magowiz: sorry i had to eat real quick but ok | 15:03 |
| acicula_ | sam-_-: it messes up permissions in all the wrong places | 15:03 |
| sam-_- | acicula_, oh rly? i didn't know that | 15:03 |
| acicula_ | sam-_-: and its easy enough to make really dumb mistakes | 15:03 |
| acicula_ | sam-_-: well im not entirely sure how gksudo sets up the environment, it might actually reset your directory to /root, but i doubt it does. for example if it doesnt it happiliy rewrites your settings file as root. which gives you all kinds of weird problems | 15:04 |
| Riverguard | magowiz: i think sam-_- may be right i dont even see an arrow on here | 15:05 |
| tyson_ | i installed the package gap from the universe...where can i find the install directory? http://packages.ubuntu.com/karmic/gap | 15:05 |

| heliosicecream | noone got a clue? | 15:48 |
| llutz | nishttal2: sudo restart network-manager | 15:48 |
| lithionlx | for the Wallpaper issue i would purge and reinstall compiz | 15:48 |
| nagisa | Wolf : yeah it's always default. | 15:48 |
| nishttal2 | llutz, done.. thanks again | 15:48 |

Is there any way to make GRUB ignore all of those and only use the Ubuntu installation on my external hard drive? | 15:58 |

| Um_cara_qualquer | sacarlson, i thought mbr is already installed whe I use unetbootin to install ISO in the pen drive | 15:59 |
| sacarlson | Um_cara_qualquer: you mean the pendrive won't boot? | 15:59 |
| frxstrem | Krigo: if so, you have to remember to set the mount point for the main partition to '/' | 16:00 |

| sacarlson | Um_cara_qualquer: ok so the pen_drive fails to fully boot, maybe the media (usb flash) or the iso is corrupt, check the md5sum of the iso and check the usb flash drive integrity | 16:01 |

| Um_cara_qualquer | sacarlson, it still doesn't make 100% sense | 16:46 |

| jrib | granjero: no I don't know, but maybe some of the documentation at http://library.gnome.org/admin/ can help | 16:47 |
| pesky | Is this the right place to get advice in misbehaving ubuntu? | 16:47 |
| Um_cara_qualquer | sacarlson, is the ubuntu 10.10 so advanced that a regular pc like mine isn't capable to operate it? | 16:47 |
| sacarlson | Um_cara_qualquer: it could be a bios problem | 16:47 |
| AbhiJit | pesky, ask | 16:48 |

| jrib | avinash: what client? What do you want to know about it? | 16:48 |
| jrib | pesky: yes, just ask your question | 16:49 |
| Um_cara_qualquer | sacarlson, how can I check if the problem is a bios problem? | 16:49 |
| granjero | thnx jrib ! | 16:49 |
| sacarlson | Um_cara_qualquer: can you even get as far as the grub menu if you hold shift at boot? | 16:49 |
| Um_cara_qualquer | sacarlson, let me check it | 16:50 |
| hanasaki | in rsync... how do you specify to bring over the . files of the home dir .. like all of them - .bashrc .logout etc... | 16:50 |

| avinash | and is this a place for asking for help in any topic?? | 16:51 |
| avinash | and how is this different from ubuntu forums and all | 16:51 |
| Roasted_ | Is there a way to recursively change the group of subfolders you own in nautilus GUI? I'm just curious because I found that "Gnome Commander" can accomplish this easily but I was curious as to why Nautilus itself oculdn't. | 16:51 |
| gobbe | avinash: forums are not realtime, this is | 16:51 |
| pesky | My system is f*cking up I guess. It gets really slow on numerous ocassions. That's rather dissapointing, I was expecting more than windows. And both my toolbars are messed up. I get incorrectly rendered elements in it, the icons sometimes get white background, menus don't respond. Sometimes bluetooth won't work on startup. | 16:51 |

| tim167 | hello, is there a tool to find out what codec a certain video uses ? | 16:53 |
| markturnip | Anyone here using http://www.monkeynet.ca/viewProject.php?project=daemonrip ? | 16:54 |
| BluesKaj | tim167, one can usually tellfrom file extension | 16:54 |
| jrib | tim167: right click -> properties usually informs you | 16:55 |
| CrazyH | tim167, probably a combination of file properties and Google | 16:55 |
| jrib | tim167: if you're looking for commandline, mplayer -identify is one way | 16:55 |
| Um_cara_qualquer | sacarlson, It doesn't do anything when i hold shift... but the first window when i start the pc, is a blue window showing me 3 options: f2 = setup; f11 = boot; tab = switch screen | 16:55 |
| tim167 | jrib thanks i'll try mplayer -identify | 16:55 |
| avinash | tim 167: play the video in vlc..go to tools and then the codec and media information..this gives a pretty good detail of ur video | 16:56 |
| sacarlson | Um_cara_qualquer: so grub never starts maybe try f2 setup and see if another boot option is available | 16:57 |
| === collin is now known as febs_ | ||
| Um_cara_qualquer | sacarlson, like what? | 16:57 |
| tim167 | avinash the thing is that the video is image-less in vlc, it's an example video from my cheap mp3 player | 16:57 |
| al3x | . | 16:57 |
| Um_cara_qualquer | sacarlson, actually, f2 is the grub... or bios... don't know witch one... and i can set witch device is the first to be booted... and stuff | 16:58 |
| Um_cara_qualquer | sacarlson, it is also set to boot any usb device before boot the SO | 16:58 |
| granjero | jrib found how to block the panels but not how to blobk the wallpaper | 16:58 |
| tim167 | ok, the video codec appears to be "rawbgr24flip", how do I re-encode my other video's to that codec ? | 16:58 |
| jrib | granjero: you just want to make it so they can't change it? | 16:59 |

| granjero | i want to restric acces to the appearence propierties | 17:00 |
| asiekierka | which i don't use, need and it wrecks with my setup | 17:00 |
| Um_cara_qualquer | sacarlson, it did... i just can't remember how i did that, this ubuntu installed right now was installed from a pen drive | 17:00 |
| asiekierka | Ubuntu 10.10, the internal wireless card is wlan0 | 17:00 |
| asiekierka | it's a Belkin, i think | 17:00 |
| sacarlson | Um_cara_qualquer: it did boot from usb flash before? not from cd rom | 17:01 |

| Um_cara_qualquer | sacarlson, flash... you mean pen drive? | 17:01 |
| gameiro | + | 17:01 |
| asiekierka | anyone? | 17:01 |
| jrib | granjero: http://library.gnome.org/admin/deployment-guide/ and the tools described towards the bottom should allow you to do it. You can also go http://library.gnome.org/admin/system-admin-guide/stable/gconf-9.html.en and set a mandatory gconf key for the background (and for the other settings you don't want people to change) | 17:01 |
| sacarlson | Um_cara_qualquer: ok then I guess it's worth try another version of ubuntu then or find another method of install | 17:01 |
| BluesKaj | asiekierka, what are you using instead? | 17:02 |
| Um_cara_qualquer | sacarlson, yeah... | 17:02 |
| asiekierka | BluesKaj: rt73 from the rt2x00 drivers for my external USB WiFi | 17:02 |
| Um_cara_qualquer | sacarlson, thx for your help man | 17:02 |
| sacarlson | Um_cara_qualquer: yes a pendrive is also called a usb flash drive | 17:02 |
| asiekierka | the internal one does not catch the signal (weak antenna and more distance) | 17:02 |
| Um_cara_qualquer | right | 17:02 |
| Um_cara_qualquer | thx a lot | 17:02 |
| asiekierka | so it creates its own adhoc network which the external one connects to | 17:02 |
| Um_cara_qualquer | cya | 17:02 |
| pLr | asiekierka: add it to /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist it will not be loaded | 17:03 |
| asiekierka | pLr: what's the way to check what driver is running wlan0, then | 17:03 |
| pLr | asiekierka: lsmod | 17:03 |

| thiefy_ | Hans_Henrik, yes, it comes with gparted. so you can use it with the live cd or usb key. | 17:44 |
| thiefy_ | St018, if you do ./scriptname that will work. | 17:45 |

| yasec | hey all anyone got some advice for setting up an ubuntu server for mail and web on a dynamic adsl account? | 17:48 |
| thiefy_ | AbhiJit, a .sh is a file that is a script. | 17:48 |
| AbhiJit | BlueEagle, thiefy_ script of any specific language? or any ? | 17:48 |
| thiefy_ | AbhiJit, yaeh, what BluesKaj said. | 17:48 |
| Rodgey | join #drupal | 17:49 |
| thiefy_ | AbhiJit, i would say it can be any language. | 17:49 |
| sacarlson | Sary: that sounds like it's working to me | 17:49 |

| piercedwater | I have setup bind9 on my server and everything works so far. What address do I enter in my domain name's dns field to get my domain name to point to my name server? | 17:50 |

| AbhiJit | BluesKaj, ok | 17:50 |
| sacarlson | Sary: you say it boots up to the login prompt, what did you expect to see? | 17:51 |
| Sary | sacarlson , Yeah , i expect to see the GRUB bootloader Menu | 17:51 |
| === brian_ is now known as jetsnoc | ||
| thiefy_ | piercedwater, you want a dns server? or you want it so that you can access your computer remotely? | 17:52 |
| sacarlson | Sary: for that you need to hold the shift key at boot, did you try that? | 17:52 |
| piercedwater | thiefy_: I setup bind9 so that I could get my registered domain name to point to my server (DNS server) | 17:52 |
| Sary | sacarlson , i did , that didn't help. | 17:52 |
| edbian | piercedwater: If you have a registered domain name you don't need a local DNS server | 17:53 |
| piercedwater | edbian: Just point it to my IP, right? | 17:53 |
| yasec | hey guys anyone got any points for setting up an ubuntu server on a dynamic adsl connection??? | 17:53 |
| edbian | piercedwater: yeah, that's the point of registering it in the first place. You tell the root servers on the internet that your domain name points at a specific IP | 17:53 |
| piercedwater | edbian: Ok I was obviously confused. Thanks. | 17:54 |
| edbian | piercedwater: no problem | 17:54 |
| sacarlson | Sary: you can try apt-get install startup-manager gui and turn on text and add more time in grub at boot, or edit grub configs by hand | 17:55 |

| bibic682 | hello all | 18:03 |
| edbian | Franz24: press shift while booting before you see any ubuntu stuff. This gets you into the grub menu. Try to boot recovery mode or something. The problem is vague and may be caused by many things. If we can get Ubuntu to boot we can try to find error messages that will point us to the real problem. | 18:03 |

| hi5 | if you are familiar with windows you know what it does | 18:29 |
| bibic682 | why does firefox4 aka minefield 4.0 process flash video slow and jerky? | 18:29 |
| hi5 | that's flash dude | 18:30 |
| edbian | Franz24: It will launch the graphical log in. If it crashes it should go back to this screen and give you errors | 18:30 |
| hi5 | doing anything in 3d lowers speed to 200 Mhz for example (from 900) | 18:30 |
| Franz24 | edbian: lots of errors here | 18:30 |
| edbian | Franz24: haha, such as... ? | 18:31 |
| eloi__ | hello | 18:31 |
| eloi__ | I am new to ubuntu | 18:31 |
| Franz24 | edbian: WARNING: Unable to load file ´/etc/gdm/custom.conf´ : No such file or directory | 18:31 |
| rubbs | hi5: of that I have no specific knowledge you could try contacting AMD/ATI with a support request. | 18:31 |
| edbian | Franz24: was that from running sudo gdm? | 18:32 |
| Sina3 | hi guys | 18:32 |
| Franz24 | edbian: yes | 18:32 |
| Sina3 | im downloading Ubuntu | 18:32 |
| Sina3 | for use on my laptop | 18:32 |
| hi5 | it's a very common feature since years, at least on windows world | 18:32 |
| Sina3 | but i dont want it to interfere with windows | 18:32 |
| hi5 | i heard that on nvidia its just fine | 18:32 |
| edbian | Franz24: Maybe some of the files are missing. Reinstall the package. sudo apt-get install gdm | 18:32 |
| Sina3 | so im planning on installing it to my external 1 TB usb harddrive | 18:32 |
| hi5 | so i guess with ati it will be either :-) | 18:32 |
| Franz24 | edbian: also ¨WARNING: Unable to find users: no seat-id found | 18:32 |
| Franz24 | also | 18:32 |
| hi5 | i will try btw | 18:32 |
| === eloi__ is now known as castlealex | ||
| edbian | Franz24: that one I have never seen before | 18:33 |
| hi5 | Sina3: yes, so? | 18:33 |
| Franz24 | edbian: I´ll try what you said | 18:33 |
| Sina3 | which should i install? | 18:33 |
| Sina3 | just normally, using Wubi to my hdd | 18:33 |
| Sina3 | or as a usb stick? | 18:33 |
| edbian | Franz24: you might have to do: sudo apt-get reinstall gdm | 18:33 |
| hi5 | maybe the usb stick is just fine for you | 18:33 |
| edbian | Franz24: If that doesn't work we'll try the shotgun approach: sudo apt-get reinstall ubuntu-desktop | 18:34 |
| rubbs | hi5: IIRC it does do it correctly, but I'm not an expert in video drivers. | 18:34 |
| castlealex | Can you people help me here's is what I cannot install : http://paste.ubuntu.com/552920/plain/ | 18:34 |
| Sina3 | hi5, whats the different | 18:34 |
| Sina3 | difference* | 18:34 |
| Franz24 | edbian: I just did the first, is it true that that´s finished immediatly? | 18:34 |
| edbian | Franz24: Well what did it say? 'already installed' ? | 18:34 |
| hi5 | rubbs: what do you mean by IIRC? never heard that | 18:34 |
| edbian | Franz24: just do sudo apt-get reinstall gdm it won't hurt anything | 18:34 |
| Franz24 | it didn´t say anything | 18:34 |
| rumpe2 | hi5, if i remember correctly | 18:35 |
| agentgas1ask | Any hints on using the panel applet "charecter palette" I cant get it to insert the charecters... | 18:35 |
| rubbs | hi5: IIRC = If I Remember/Recall Correctly sorry. I shouldn't use acronyms | 18:35 |
| leakk | lol | 18:35 |
| Franz24 | edbian: as i said, I just did it and nothing happened.. | 18:35 |
| edbian | Franz24: what? Are you sure? it just puts you back at the prompt? | 18:36 |
| hi5 | ok...hehe | 18:36 |
| edbian | Franz24: you gave it your password and such | 18:36 |
| hi5 | will try that however...dont see reasons it wouldnt work | 18:36 |
| slupz | hi | 18:36 |
| Franz24 | edian: well, when I type it and press enter it just goes to the next line where I can type a new command.. | 18:36 |
| edbian | Franz24: you're kidding! | 18:37 |
| edbian | Franz24: dmesg works | 18:37 |
| hi5 | would be very bad keeping your card consuming >100W all the time doesnt it? | 18:37 |
| edbian | Franz24: ? but sudo apt-get reinstall gdm does nothing? | 18:37 |
| gccster | guys is it possible to use a static ip linuxbox to forward to other internet ips ? | 18:38 |
| slupz | I have a problem with grub on a raid1 fails to restore after an upgrade | 18:38 |
| slupz | if I try to mount a drive tells me linux_raid_member :(( | 18:38 |
| Franz24 | edbian: I´ll try it once more in case I made a typing mistake | 18:38 |
| edbian | Franz24: If there was a typing mistake it would have spitted out errors | 18:38 |
| hi5 | thansk rubbs anyway | 18:39 |
| Franz24 | edbian: with both sudo apt-get reinstall gdm and with sudo apt-get install gdm nothing happens | 18:39 |
| edbian | Franz24: what about sudo apt-get install geany | 18:39 |
| edbian | Franz24: It's just a random app. does that work / do anything? | 18:39 |
| Franz24 | nope | 18:39 |
| rubbs | hi5: np. hope you can find your answer. | 18:40 |
| rumpe2 | Franz24, does "ls" work? | 18:40 |
| edbian | Franz24: ok. I believe that your install was bad. You're probably going to have to re-install | 18:40 |
| rubbs | hi5: I will say this. and it's not scientific, but my ATI card will speed up the fan when I'm playing games, but slow it down when I'm not. so I'm pretty sure it works. | 18:40 |
| edbian | Franz24: random files are just missing. apt-get does not appear to work at all | 18:41 |
| Franz24 | rumpe2: no, so I guess I should restart the recovery mode | 18:41 |
| Franz24 | edbian: maybe it works when I restart the recovery mode | 18:41 |
| rumpe2 | Franz24, sounds really strange ... sure, you are not in an editor? ;) | 18:41 |
| edbian | Franz24: I DOUBT it :) | 18:41 |
| Failican | Hey, got some problem when I was going to istall drives to my BMC4312 wifi card | 18:41 |
| edbian | rumpe2: dmesg works | 18:41 |
| Franz24 | edbian: I can always try | 18:41 |
| edbian | Franz24: sure | 18:41 |
| hi5 | rubbs it does make very much sense to me | 18:41 |
| hi5 | nice news for me | 18:42 |
| hi5 | :-D | 18:42 |
| Franz24 | edbian: by the way, this is the second time that this happens, yesterday I installed ubuntu with the same problem, and today I reinstalled it but nothing changed. | 18:42 |
| edbian | Franz24: maybe the CD is bad | 18:42 |
| aeon-ltd | Franz24: md5 next time | 18:42 |
| edbian | Franz24: You should re-burn it. | 18:42 |
| aeon-ltd | !md5 | Franz24 | 18:42 |
| ubottu | Franz24: To verify your Ubuntu ISO image (or other files for which an MD5 checksum is provided), see http://help.ubuntu.com/community/HowToMD5SUM or http://www.linuxquestions.org/linux/answers/LQ_ISO/Checking_the_md5sum_in_Windows | 18:42 |
| rumpe2 | Franz24, use flash-sticks/cards, if possible... cd-roms has a number of additional error-sources | 18:43 |
| Franz24 | rumpe2: I´ll use an usb stick next time | 18:44 |
| Franz24 | edbian: now when I do ´sudo apt-get reinstall gdm´ it asks me for my password, and when I enter it it says: ¨E: Invalid operation reinstall¨ | 18:44 |
| edbian | Franz24: ok good, does ls work? | 18:44 |
| Franz24 | edbian: Is: command not found | 18:44 |
| edbian | Franz24: ok, it is REALLY BAD, that ls is not found. But if you wanna try and fix this install I will help you. I suggest you download and burn a new image and reinstall the OS | 18:45 |
| Pici | edbian, Franz24: The command is: apt-get install --reinstall gdm | 18:45 |
| edbian | Pici: thanks | 18:46 |
| edbian | Franz24: try that | 18:46 |
| tetsuo__ | hello, how do i get a packadge updated? | 18:46 |
| Pici | Franz24, edbian: also, that was ls, not Is (lowercase L vs. capital I) | 18:46 |
| tetsuo__ | the samba currently available is a bit on the old side, the newer versions have a fix for windows7 shares and a security fix | 18:46 |
| thiefy_ | if your computer says ls: command not found, then that machine has a real bad problem mate. | 18:47 |
| dostokhan | recently install 10.10 and it's very slow. updated but no luck. any help? | 18:47 |
| hi5 | tetsuo__: that is a statement or a question? | 18:47 |
| edbian | Franz24: yes, you are typing 'EL' 'ESS' right | 18:47 |
| edbian | ? | 18:47 |
| Franz24 | edbian: E Could not open lock file /var/lib/dpkg/lock - open (13: Permission denied) | 18:47 |
| Franz24 | E: Unable to lock the administration directory (/var/lib/dpkg/), are you root? | 18:47 |
| edbian | ls | 18:47 |
| thiefy_ | dostokhan, we do not understand your question. | 18:47 |
| edbian | Franz24: What command did you run? | 18:47 |
| tetsuo__ | hi5: my question is how to get it updated, the thing about samba is a statement | 18:47 |
| Pici | Franz24: you need to use sudo for that | 18:47 |
| Franz24 | edbian: the reinstall command | 18:48 |
| Pici | tetsuo__: Is there a CVE for that samba security issue? | 18:48 |
| Franz24 | pici: thanks, now it works | 18:48 |
| tetsuo__ | Pici: yes, http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2019-3069 | 18:48 |
| edbian | Franz24: that's because ls is a command and is is not | 18:48 |
| dostokhan | thiefy_, i recently install ubuntu 10.10. i was using 10.04. now the new system is very very slow. even typing gets stuck | 18:48 |
| Franz24 | edbian: i meant the sudo command | 18:48 |
| edbian | Franz24: sudo apt-get install -reinstall gdm | 18:49 |
| Franz24 | edbian: that one is works | 18:49 |
| Franz24 | edbian: it has just finished | 18:49 |
| edbian | Franz24: then try sudo gdm again | 18:49 |
| resno_ | im trying to setup samba to give a user write access. ive tried setting guest ok, and write access for the user. but i keep denied access | 18:49 |
| thiefy_ | dostokhan, i doubt that is the OS fault. i would check your ram and your hard drive. make sure they are OK. | 18:49 |
| Franz24 | edbian: same errors as before | 18:49 |
| thiefy_ | dostokhan, sure, it may be a little bit slower, but it wouldn't be that much. | 18:49 |
| castlealex | How to run a pro file? | 18:50 |
| Myrtti | tetsuo__: http://www.ubuntu.com/usn/usn-987-1 | 18:50 |
| edbian | Franz24: try this: | 18:50 |
| edbian | Franz24: sudo apt-get install -reinstall ubuntu-desktop | 18:50 |
| dostokhan | i'm using ubuntu with this laptop for about a year. it isn't normal | 18:50 |
| Pici | tetsuo__: It looks like we already fixed that: http://www.ubuntu.com/usn/usn-987-1 | 18:50 |
| Pici | Myrtti: darn ;) | 18:50 |
| thiefy_ | castlealex, think like a champ. feel like a professional, then run it as a pro. you can do it mate! | 18:50 |
| Franz24 | edbian: ok I´ll try | 18:50 |
| dostokhan | thiefy_, it almost hangs sometimes for a few seconds i | 18:51 |
| castlealex | well the thing is I installed build essential from the synaptic and it doesn't work | 18:51 |
| thiefy_ | dostokhan, i think you have a hardware problem. it should not be that slow. try downloading and running the 10.04 distro and see if that is faster, or if it seems just as slow. | 18:51 |
| tetsuo__ | Pici: Myrtti > i see the security fix itself was backported, ok so that cannot be used as a reason to update to 2:3.5.6~dfsg-2 , which fixes a bug with accessing windos7 shares | 18:52 |
| Franz24 | edbian: it has finished working | 18:52 |
| edbian | Franz24: sudo gdm | 18:52 |
| edbian | Franz24: (that was fast) | 18:52 |
| ohzie | Hey guys | 18:52 |
| thiefy_ | tetsuo__, what is that bug about that you are referring to? | 18:53 |
| dostokhan | thiefy_, seems like i've to go back to 10.04. i thought there might be any problem with 10.10. | 18:53 |
| tetsuo__ | thiefy_: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=651722 | 18:53 |
| thiefy_ | dostokhan, i don't think there is aproblem, but try 10.04, and see if it's any different. | 18:53 |
| thiefy_ | tetsuo__, thanks. | 18:53 |
| Franz24 | edbian: same errors, and really fast because I even restarted my pc in the time, after ´sudo gdm´ i can´t enter any commands for some weird reason | 18:53 |
| Franz24 | edbian: btw, it gives the same errors again | 18:53 |
| resno_ | when using samba, on another users account, do ineed chown on that so others can deposit into it? | 18:54 |
| dostokhan | thiefy_, ok. have a good day :) bye. | 18:54 |
| edbian | Franz24: ok, I suggest you reinstall the OS | 18:54 |
| Failican | Hey, what do I have to do when my network card stops working after updating drivers? its a broadcom BCM4312? | 18:54 |
| castlealex | Here's my problem ; http://paste.ubuntu.com/552927/ | 18:54 |

| ClemSF | Does anyone ever tried to modify the Ubuntu Server 10.10 ISO to create an automatic installation with the CD? | 18:54 |
| Franz24 | edbian: Ok, I still have the original downloaded iso file on my pc, how should I put it on an usb? | 18:54 |
| aeon-ltd | Failican: downgrade? then report the bug and wait i suppose if you need the card now | 18:54 |
| Franz24 | edbian: and do I have to uninstal anything? | 18:54 |
| edbian | Franz24: You don't need to uninstall. https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/FromUSBStickQuick | 18:55 |

| Richie086 | got a url of a video that shows what you talking about (the sped up video) | 18:57 |
| Franz24 | edbian: I´ll switch to my pc now, could you send the link again in a moment? | 18:57 |
| Pici | tetsuo__: Correct. A backport of that specific patch (if that would even be possible) if you'd need Windows 7 support. I think #ubuntu-devel might be able to point you in the right direction to get that setup on lanchpad so that it could get backported. | 18:58 |
| kieff | www.youtube.com/user/wsupvrybdy | 18:58 |
| Pici | kieff: Don't advertise here. | 18:58 |

| Richie086 | castlealex: what is this you are trying to install? | 19:08 |
| acicula_ | Failican: dont think you should install b43-fwcutter anymore, it appears to be longer used | 19:09 |
| Failican | acicula_ after I also tried to inactivate the current drive and then activate it in system>administration>hardware drives. then I rebooted | 19:09 |
| Sary | Franz24: use Unetbootin to burn the iso image , then make sure the MD5 matches. | 19:09 |
| castlealex | Richie086 : this program: http://gitorious.org/qt-xcurtheme when it is extracted there are .pro .cpp and .h files on it! I read the common questions and what appears is that they are source files and I need to compile I think so how do i Do it? | 19:10 |

| Franz24 | Sary: After the installation I couldn´t start ubuntu and we found out that a lot of files are missing so I have to reinstall ubuntu | 19:12 |
| acicula_ | Failican: what did you "fix", the procedure appears to be to isntall fwcutter, let it fetch firmware and reboot and it should be working | 19:12 |
| acicula_ | Failican: err reboot and then activate the new drivers in hardware drivers | 19:12 |
| Failican | acicula_ I dont understand why the local network works, i can use ssh from my current computer and i can ping the ubuntu computer its just internet thats crashed | 19:12 |

| sandyrulz | @rusty | 19:13 |
| Failican | acicula_ hmm sry but I dont know what you mean with "err reboot" :S | 19:14 |
| acicula_ | Failican: you are not making any sense, if you can access your system via the ntework then your wireless is not broken | 19:14 |
| Sary | Franz24: Alright , looks like it was a bad iso. please try again and lets us know how the installation goes. | 19:14 |
| sandyrulz | can anyone help me i m newbie n my pendrive has become read and write protected i tried formatting it bt it doens work | 19:14 |
| Failican | acicula_ but I cant access internet just local i cant for example use irc or anything thats outside the local network | 19:14 |
| Franz24 | Sary: I will, it´s now extracting and copying the bootloader to an usb stick | 19:14 |
| BluesKaj | Failican, it could be a false positive , saying uo're connected to the lan when you aren't , are you using nm-applet ? | 19:15 |
| cognitiaclaeves | Wireless for Intel 3945 ABG on a Latitude D830 just stopped working. Network manager shows it as "not ready" on LTS. It worked fine before. Is this a known issue? | 19:15 |
| ubuntu_ | i can;t install nvidia drivers | 19:15 |
| === collin is now known as Guest90527 | ||
| === richard is now known as Guest11590 | ||
| Sary | Franz24: that looks good. | 19:15 |
| castlealex | ubottu: there is no ./configure I can't compile it | 19:15 |
| acicula_ | cognitiaclaeves: what does rfkill in a console show | 19:15 |
| BluesKaj | ubuntu_ , explain can't install , do you mean the recommended driver? | 19:16 |
| thiefy_ | Failican, it seems your dns server is broken. up near the clock, on your panel, there is the network icon, right click that, go to edit connections, then in there, click on your auto eth0 and edit that. in there, set your dns server to open dns. which is 208.67.222.222 | 19:16 |
| thiefy_ | Failican, first, try in the terminal to type this: ping grc.com see if you get any replies. | 19:17 |
| acicula_ | cognitiaclaeves: >rfkill list< even | 19:17 |
| sandyrulz | can anyone help me i m newbie n my pendrive has become read and write protected i tried formatting it bt it doens work | 19:17 |
| dardan | hello, I wonder if somebody knows any command that will make a .txt that will make a list of all my files on my backup drive that I have? | 19:17 |
| Failican | BluesKaj hmm no im not using nm-applet | 19:17 |
| cognitiaclaeves | acicula_: there's a paste script in 10.4, isn't there? | 19:17 |
| anon33_ | anyone here on a macbook that could tell me how i could manually adjust the brightness settings on ubuntu? | 19:18 |
| acicula_ | Failican: if you cant access the internet but you can access the local network your network configuration settings are incorrect or your gateway is blocking you | 19:18 |
| anon33_ | the function keys suddently stopped working overnight | 19:18 |
| BigMao | Hi there, when I click over to my terminal (i.e. from another window), it automatically highlights the line that I click. Is this something I can fix? Thanks! | 19:18 |

| BluesKaj | thiefy_, google dns is more reliable than opendns , if the settings aren't correct on opendns email could stop when the dynamic IP changes | 19:19 |
| dardan | rusty149: it's a hard disk.. | 19:19 |
| sandyrulz | can anyone help me i m newbie n my pendrive has become read and write protected i tried formatting it bt it doens work | 19:19 |
| rusty149 | dardan: Can you see the files on screen? | 19:19 |
| Failican | acicula_ yeh, could be so but I didnt change anything on the gateway | 19:19 |
| Franz24 | Sary: it has finished copying, how do I check the md5, or something like that? | 19:19 |
| cognitiaclaeves | acicula_: http://pastebin.com/r1uK7Z06 | 19:19 |
| dardan | rusty149: yes I can, but I have so many folders.. so I want a command that will make a list of all the files on the drive, so I can search for the files I need copy them, and then format my drive? | 19:20 |
| acicula_ | cognitiaclaeves: right then its not that then(means both are not switched off physically or via software) | 19:20 |
| Sary | Franz24: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/HowToMD5SUM | 19:21 |
| rusty149 | dardan: right-click a file/folder and click properties. What is the Location: ? | 19:21 |
| FrozenKnight | I don't really know where to take this... :/ | 19:21 |
| FrozenKnight | It's about Motif Window Manager | 19:21 |
| cognitiaclaeves | acicula_: FWIW, I see the LED on. :p | 19:21 |
| dardan | rusty149: /media/Extern | 19:21 |
| dardan | its the location | 19:21 |
| rusty149 | dardan: Do you want the permissions included? | 19:22 |
| cognitiaclaeves | What kills me is that it worked just 2 days ago. | 19:22 |
| anon33_ | anyone here on a macbook that could tell me how i could manually adjust the brightness settings on ubuntu? | 19:22 |
| anon33_ | the function keys suddently stopped working overnight | 19:22 |

| dardan | rusty149: no dont need they? or? | 19:22 |
| m1ndvirus | Hi. My iPod mounts fine but does not show in Banshee or nautilus. Please help. | 19:22 |
| acicula_ | cognitiaclaeves: dunno then why it is not working, can you try a previous kernel revision or is the one you have the only one? | 19:23 |
| acicula_ | one thats installed | 19:23 |
| === febs is now known as feebs | ||
| cognitiaclaeves | I think I did boot into the last one without success. I'll try it again later. Can't reboot now. | 19:23 |
| cognitiaclaeves | Would there be a way to tell if it just went dead, hard-ware wise? | 19:23 |
| Failican | acicula_ I'll try to reboot my gateway, might do it. Thanks anyways! | 19:23 |
| acicula_ | Failican: check your network settings on your laptop that you set the gateway properly and dns servers | 19:24 |
| reginaldodr | Hi | 19:24 |
| m1ndvirus | Anyone with any advice? | 19:24 |
| acicula_ | cognitiaclaeves: no updates of any kind? | 19:24 |
| rusty149 | dardan: Open terminal (Ctrl+Alt+t) and enter, ls -aR >> ~/backup-files.txt | 19:24 |
| mayank_ | hi can anyone help me my pendrive has become write protected i tried formatting it bt it doesnt wrk | 19:24 |
| cognitiaclaeves | acicula_: No, I think it might have happened after an update. | 19:25 |
| m1ndvirus | mayank_: Remount it read/write. | 19:25 |
| dardan | rusty149: what about the hard disk? the command doesnt show it where to search? | 19:25 |
| reginaldodr | I'm new here, i don't make paltalk works | 19:25 |
| aeon-ltd | mayank_: also is there a physical write lock? | 19:25 |
| rusty149 | dardan: woops | 19:25 |
| acicula_ | cognitiaclaeves: reboot and try an older kernel, should still be there if you updated | 19:25 |
| dardan | rusty149: haha :D | 19:25 |
| castlealex | Richie086: Depends on Qt 4.x it says on the other website has anoyne got the program installed? | 19:25 |
| Franz24 | Sary: I installed cygwin but I don´t understand what I should do now | 19:25 |
| mayank_ | no there is no physical lock i m new here so tel me in detail | 19:25 |
| Failican | acicula_ yeh i have checked that and the pass is correct and all other things are on auto as they where befor | 19:26 |
| rusty149 | dardan: ls -aR /media/Extern >> ~/backup-file.txt | 19:26 |
| cognitiaclaeves | acicula_: Ok. I'll try that when I can. Thanks for the help! | 19:26 |
| Remowylliams | is there a way to map nfs mounts? | 19:26 |
| acicula_ | cognitiaclaeves: yw | 19:26 |
| BluesKaj | thiefy_, do you use opendns? | 19:27 |
| cognitiaclaeves | acicula_: ... If it turns out to be an update of some sort that caused it, is there a way to get a list of what was updated? ( maybe a log for apt? ) | 19:27 |
| Remowylliams | I want to mount a directory from several different machines but as a specific user. (not user nobody) | 19:27 |
| Sary | Franz24: installed cygwin for what? | 19:27 |
| acicula_ | cognitiaclaeves: there is an apt log yeah | 19:27 |
| dardan | rusty149: yeah it worked! is it anyway the command can arrange all by type? | 19:27 |
| kxsteve | is there a way to install mailutils without installing exim? | 19:28 |
| Franz24 | Sary: for the MD5SUM, I´m on windows right now, so i think that´s the only way to do it | 19:28 |
| dardan | rusty149: and I dont want the folders in the list, just all the files on the disk. Arranged by type? | 19:28 |
| Sary | Franz24: O' you're running Windows ! my bad . | 19:28 |
| acicula_ | cognitiaclaeves: /var/log/apt/ and maybe /var/lib/apt | 19:28 |
| Franz24 | Sary: No problem, I should have mentioned it | 19:28 |
| cognitiaclaeves | acicula_: Is the apt log updated for updates not done directly by the user through bash? | 19:29 |
| hi5 | Remowylliams: i bet there is | 19:29 |
| rusty149 | dardan: Do you want files in subdirectories? | 19:29 |
| hi5 | but never used nfs yet | 19:29 |
| Danielc1234 | new install and trying to setup DNS, can someone give me a hand with this? | 19:29 |
| Sary | Franz24: Thats cool :) , so in which step you're at now. | 19:29 |
| Remowylliams | hi5: the normal way it's done in BSD and other linuxes is not available in ubuntu | 19:29 |
| BluesKaj | Danielc1234, ethernet or wifi ? | 19:30 |
| Franz24 | Sary: still at the MD5SUM step | 19:30 |
| acicula_ | cognitiaclaeves: i assume so | 19:30 |
| hi5 | not even with third party tools? | 19:30 |
| mayank__ | hi can anyone help me my pendrive has become write protected i tried formatting it bt it doesnt wrk | 19:30 |
| dardan | rusty149: how do you mean? I want the text file that the command generate.. but if there is a way that will sort everything by type, in the text file? | 19:30 |
| cognitiaclaeves | acicula_: Ok. Thanks again. Have a good one! | 19:30 |
| Danielc1234 | BluesKaj: ethernet | 19:30 |
| Remowylliams | hi5: that's why I asked if there was another nfs system that can be used. | 19:30 |
| BluesKaj | so you're connected , Danielc1234 ? | 19:30 |
| mayank__ | hi can anyone help me my pendrive has become write protected i tried formatting it bt it doesnt wrk | 19:31 |
| rusty149 | dardan: ls -aRX /media/Extern >> ~/backup-files.txt | 19:31 |
| hi5 | maybe you mean a configuration tool or gui | 19:31 |
| dajhorn | mayank__: Check the /var/log/messages file for write errors. This can happen when the flash media in the USB device burns-out. | 19:31 |
| Remowylliams | It's very sad, you can't map users, they can only be squashed or not squashed. | 19:31 |
| Danielc1234 | BluesKaj: well I'm able to get out to the web, but I am installing a mailserver and Zimbra and is says to make sure all DNS is setup correctly or else I will have big headacks later. | 19:31 |
| hi5 | nfs should be equal in all distros | 19:31 |

| toto | vasco | 19:33 |
| dardan | rusty149: where do you find this commands? it worked :D but i dont want the list like: " in this folders this files are" but I just want a list of all the files in the disk, without the info about whre the files are in which folder? | 19:33 |
| === toto is now known as Guest60587 | ||
| dardan | rusty149: do you understand? haha :D | 19:33 |
| dajhorn | mayank__: Open the file in a text editor and scroll to the bottom. | 19:33 |
| BluesKaj | Danielc1234, ok well , I don't use a mailserver , but I've set up google dns in my router (manual dns settings) and in the /etc/resolv.conf as nameserver | 19:33 |
| Franz24 | Sary: So what should I do now? | 19:33 |
| Sary | Franz24: install winMD5Sum | 19:34 |
| Danielc1234 | BlueKaj okay, I will take a look at that. | 19:34 |
| rusty149 | dardan: bit longer... | 19:35 |

| Remowylliams | hi5: hi | 19:38 |
| Sina3 | i installed ubuntu on a cd | 19:38 |
| Sina3 | but when i boot 2 it | 19:38 |
| Franz24 | Sary: they are the same, should I restart my computer now and reinstall ubuntu? | 19:38 |
| hi5 | does 64bit version has remarkable advantages over 32 one? | 19:39 |
| Sina3 | i get 2 wierd symbols | 19:39 |
| hi5 | sina like what | 19:39 |
| Franz24 | Sary: I´ll stay on irc on my laptop, so if I have any questions I can still ask them | 19:39 |
| Remowylliams | hi5: no I'm not talking about a gui or a tool nfsv4 should allow mapping of clients to specific uid's | 19:39 |
| Sary | Franz24: Yes. you're good to go. | 19:39 |
| Sina3 | one like a keyboard | 19:39 |

| Sina3 | it only worked once | 19:40 |
| Sina3 | the second time | 19:40 |
| Remowylliams | hi5: Like if you have 4 different machines that you want to share files between, on an nfs you should be able to make them all have the same uid and gid but not a nobody id | 19:40 |
| Sina3 | and it asked if i wanted to install it | 19:40 |
| Sina3 | but... | 19:40 |
| Sina3 | it froze | 19:41 |
| Sina3 | so i rebooted | 19:41 |
| Sina3 | and went back to the 3 symbols | 19:41 |
| hi5 | sina3 just try this: download 10.04 version and then put it on usb | 19:41 |
| hi5 | it's supposed to work better | 19:41 |

| Remowylliams | hi5: version of what please? | 19:43 |

| Remowylliams | hi5: if you have or need to use more than 4GB of ram using amd64 is best | 19:44 |
| hi5 | losting 700 megs not a big deal | 19:44 |

| hi5 | but i am figuring not | 19:46 |
| hi5 | too bad | 19:46 |
| hi5 | too little optimized sw? | 19:46 |

| minimec | sniperjo_: That message itself is not a problem. It only means that grub is not able to adjust the bootscreen. The X-server on the other hand may (should) start withlut problem. | 19:50 |
| rusty149 | sniperjo_: if it you started then you should be able to login with ssh | 19:50 |

| erUSUL | seul: :/ | 19:55 |
| amarcolino | anyone know how to stop /etc/hosts from reverting back to default as I have added my comps to it but on reboot it is gone? | 19:55 |
| Sary | Franz24: ok. | 19:55 |
| hi5 | how can i fix a system that doesn't reboot or shutdown | 19:55 |
| seul | erusul: that channel was invite only, and #hardware was empty.. | 19:55 |
| sniperjo_ | minimec: its Intel interrogated which outputs DVI, that then goes through a DVI VGA converter | 19:56 |

| Scunizi | sniperjo_: can you boot into the rescue kernel? | 19:56 |
| Franz24 | Sary: But now it looks like I can´t boot from an usbstick, so should I try and burn another cd? | 19:56 |
| sniperjo_ | Scunizi: no just goes black screen, but i can ssh into it | 19:56 |
| Inphernal | Yeah | 19:56 |
| Scunizi | sniperjo_: do you have an nvidia card? | 19:56 |
| minimec | sniperjo_: hmmm... That shouldn't be the problem. What resolution does the monitor have? | 19:56 |
| sniperjo_ | minimec: 800x600 | 19:57 |
| Inphernal | There's two total on my laptop, they were working fine, I turned my computer off and when I turned it back on later, they wouldn;t work | 19:57 |
| sniperjo_ | Scunizi: GMA950 i think, riddled with problems... | 19:57 |
| hi5 | Inphernal: very strange | 19:57 |
| hi5 | so no software updates before that? | 19:57 |
| hi5 | no odd behaviour? | 19:57 |
| Inphernal | hi5: They show up in windows device manager as working fine | 19:57 |
| Scunizi | sniperjo_: that's it? 800x600? yea.. issues with that card.. sorry I'm not good with diagnostics with that one. | 19:57 |
| seul | xagua;: well, it says i cant join ##hardware, so i guess it is. it says invite only | 19:58 |
| Inphernal | hi5: No, I checked, I thought it may have been a Win Update at first but none | 19:58 |
| erUSUL | seul: invite only ? maybe you have to be registered ... | 19:58 |
| gobbe | seul: you need to register | 19:58 |
| hi5 | maybe kernel drivers went wrong... | 19:58 |
| seul | xangua: oh, need to be registred. sry | 19:58 |

| user | How do I add admin group? | 19:58 |
| sniperjo_ | Scunizi: its terrible, works with other monitors DVI and VGA through the converter, just not with this monitor | 19:58 |
| gobbe | user: there is admin-group already | 19:58 |
| Sary | Franz24: No , have you tried to change 'BIOS' boot order to boot from USB first , also as an alternative you can try another USB burning tool. | 19:58 |
| sniperjo_ | minimec:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation System Controller Hub (SCH Poulsbo) Graphics Controller (rev 07) | 19:59 |
| user | gobbe: 'usermod -a -G admin username' outputs 'usermod: unknown group admin' | 19:59 |
| hi5 | Inphernal: so usb ' es does NOT run from WIN7? | 19:59 |
| gobbe | user: which version you are running? | 19:59 |
| sniperjo_ | minimec: as i side note i always have trouble sleeping and waking it | 19:59 |
| Sary | Franz24: instead of wasting some CD's .. | 19:59 |
| erUSUL | user: and adm ? | 20:00 |
| Inphernal | hi5: It does not | 20:00 |
| actionparsnip | User: the admin group already exists | 20:00 |
| user | gobbe, hardy (if you tell the command to upgrade, I will) | 20:00 |
| Franz24 | Sary: That´s the problem, in the BIOS I can find an option to chage the boot order, but USB is not in the list.. | 20:00 |
| user | actionparsnip: not here... | 20:00 |
| user | erUSUL: what's adm? | 20:00 |
| hi5 | so it's definately a bios issue maybe...or you mainboard is getting lost | 20:00 |
| gobbe | user: what does groups -command say? | 20:00 |
| Inphernal | hi5: I updated the bios after it stopped working, thinking that might fix it | 20:01 |
| actionparsnip | User: its a default group in ubuntu. Its members are able to use sudo | 20:01 |
| user | g'root' | 20:01 |
| sam-_- | hi5, i definately agree maybe | 20:01 |
| Scunizi | sniperjo_: perhaps when ssh'd into the machine you can "xrandr" and it should give you what the default values that are currently output to the monitor .. the one with an * will be the current default.. if there's nothing then you'll have to manually tell xrandr what to use | 20:01 |
| user | gobbe: 'root' | 20:02 |
| minimec | sniperjo_: ok. I read that you don't have problems with other monitors. You could try to create a new xorg.conf and modify it to use the simple VGA driver instead of the intel GPU driver. THat may help... | 20:02 |
| minimec | sniperjo_: http://www.osguides.net/operation-systems/217-how-to-create-xorgconf-in-ubuntu-910.html | 20:02 |
| hi5 | no chances though even after bios update? maybe some weird usb setting inside | 20:02 |
| skutr3 | can someone help me? | 20:02 |
| hi5 | like legacy mode or whatever | 20:02 |
| gobbe | user: you are in as root? | 20:02 |
| Scunizi | sniperjo_: also if the wrong one is chosen ie resolution and refresh rate.. you can change that as well. | 20:02 |
| sniperjo_ | minimec: i need the intel driver for the video acceleration, otherwise i would be happy to | 20:02 |
| gobbe | user: what does groups <youruseraccount> say | 20:02 |
| user | gobbe: yes | 20:02 |

| === kamil is now known as kkamilsk8 | ||
| minimec | sniperjo_: I see ;) | 20:02 |
| hi5 | sniperjo_: you are not able to get it? | 20:02 |
| Scunizi | sniperjo_: sounds like xrandr couldn't pick up any data from the monitor so it didn't know how to address it. | 20:02 |
| Inphernal | hi5: The only USB setting in the bios is the legacy one, and that's been set to enabled always | 20:03 |
| hi5 | from repos? | 20:03 |
| skutr3 | but it wont let me for some reason | 20:03 |
| Franz24 | hi5: I didn´t even know I could update my bios ^^´ I´ll try that | 20:03 |
| kkamilsk8 | hey, can someone help me to run/change .bat script? | 20:03 |
| `Zerax` | Hello folks, I did a dist-upgrade from karmic to maverick and when I booted into gnome it said the trash can applet had broken and so it removed it. Now the task selector is gone, so is the desktop selector and windows don't have a title bar, and aren't movable etc. Any thoughts on how I could restore it into some working state? | 20:03 |
| user | gobbe: groups username says I'm in 'username' and 'adm' group, as I ran the ' usermod -a -G adm username' too | 20:03 |
| sniperjo_ | hi5: no i am, sleeping and waking on the other hand seem to be abit hit and miss | 20:03 |
| Franz24 | hi5: how should I do that, by just going to their website? | 20:03 |
| actionparsnip | User: run the command: groups ,what is output? | 20:03 |

| Inphernal | hi5: Should I try disabling legacy? | 20:04 |
| sniperjo_ | Scunizi: i know all the specs for the monitor | 20:04 |
| hi5 | but use it as a last solution | 20:04 |
| ButtaKnife | Sorry for asking again, but has anyone had success with unattended installs via preseed with automatic LVM partitioning? I have everything working fine except for one prompt, which is the Yes/No "Write changes to disk and configure LVM?" question. No matter what I add in any order I can't get it to bypass that. | 20:04 |
| user | !panel | 20:04 |
| skutr3 | user: i did but im trying to move my badblocks to a flat file so i can mark them as badblocks | 20:04 |
| `Zerax` | Eh, I had to resolve some broken package dependencies manually, but it works mostly except for gnome. | 20:04 |
| hi5 | check settings is needed | 20:04 |
| Scunizi | sniperjo_: then type xrandr in cli of the ssh window and see what the system report | 20:04 |
| Scunizi | *s | 20:04 |

| ct529 | hi guys .... has anyone been able to make CUDA work properly on ubuntu? | 20:07 |
| Inphernal | hi5: Didn't help | 20:07 |
| user | castlealex: read the INSTALL file | 20:07 |
| Sary | Franz24: excuse me , i had a phone call .. where you at now ? | 20:07 |
| hi5 | ok franz | 20:07 |
| Inphernal | Only other options involving USB was in the boot order | 20:07 |
| sniperjo_ | Scunizi: do i need to export DISPLAY or something ? otherwise i get "cant open display" with xrandr | 20:07 |
| actionparsnip | Kkamilsk8: linux wont use windows commands. You will need to convert the commands to linux commands | 20:07 |
| skutr3 | can someone help me put my badblocks in a flat-file and make them unusable sectors please? | 20:08 |
| ButtaKnife | ct529: I had CUDA working on Kubuntu within the last year. The trick was making sure the proper NVIDIA kernel was installed. | 20:08 |
| Franz24 | I´m now going to update my bios, but I´ll do the rest tomorrow because otherwise I won´t have enough sleep tonight ^^ | 20:08 |
| cryogenfx | hello, can anyone tell me why i must enter my password for the keyring (wifi connection only password in there) 3-5 times on every login? | 20:08 |
| hi5 | Inphernal: can you assume for sure that key IS bootable? | 20:08 |
| kkamilsk8 | actionparsnip: can you help me with that? | 20:08 |
| Inphernal | hi5: You mean can I boot from USB? | 20:08 |
| ct529 | ButtaKnife: yes, that worked .... it is just that some of the libraries that come with it are not found sometimes | 20:08 |
| castlealex | user: there is no install file | 20:08 |
| hi5 | yes | 20:08 |
| ct529 | ButtaKnife: for example the CUBLAS | 20:09 |
| Franz24 | hi5: Sary: and everybody else who helped me: Thanks a lot for the great help, I´ll be back tomorrow :) | 20:09 |
| ct529 | ButtaKnife: have you had this experience? | 20:09 |
| hi5 | sorry Inphernal ... wrong advice | 20:09 |
| sam-_- | cryogenfx, you can store your password unencrypted. that way you won't have to enter a password ever | 20:09 |
| Scunizi | sniperjo_: hummm... not sure.. I'll have ubottu send you the help link on xrandr and resolution.. both links might shed some light on it. The temp method would also be to do what the previous persion mentioned and add vga to xorg.conf.. sorry can't help with that one. | 20:09 |
| hi5 | bye Franz24 | 20:09 |
| ButtaKnife | ct529: I haven't, but is it actually "some times" or "always" with, for example, CUBLAS? | 20:09 |
| ct529 | ButtaKnife: it seems it has to do with the LD_LIBRARY_PATH variable .... but this is nowhere to be seen in ubuntu | 20:09 |
| tsuna27 | I need help with Empathy : I want to change the order of the groups I have in the contact list how do I do that? | 20:09 |

| ct529 | ButtaKnife: but if I go console only, su into root shell, set the LD_LIBRARY_PATH variable, then it finds it | 20:10 |
| ButtaKnife | ct529: Ahhh... you may want to add LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/path/to/cuda/libs to your .bashrc file or something like that. | 20:10 |
| kkamilsk8 | actionparsnip: can you help me with that? | 20:10 |
| cryogenfx | sam-_-: ok, much appreciated. but it is strange behaviour, yes? it asks for the password 3-5 times right after another | 20:10 |
| compdoc | Bisu[Shield], yes | 20:10 |
| Franz24 | Thanks everyone, bye :) | 20:10 |
| sam-_- | cryogenfx, but anyone who has access to your computer no knows your passwords | 20:10 |
| Inphernal | hi5: Yeah, if it won't boot I'm just gonna take it to BestBuy, the laptop should still be under warranty | 20:10 |
| sam-_- | cryogenfx, yes. quite straneg | 20:11 |
| ct529 | ButtaKnife: why is that not already defined by the system? it should be .... | 20:11 |
| ButtaKnife | Bisu[Shield]: In a channel with nearly 1600 people, it's easy to be invisible. | 20:11 |
| actionparsnip | Bisu[shield]: no | 20:11 |
| ct529 | ButtaKnife: because I configured it in /etc/ld.so.conf.d/ | 20:11 |
| Inphernal | hi5: Off to make that boot usb, we'll see | 20:11 |
| hi5 | Inphernal: i would have done the same | 20:11 |

| Inphernal | hi5: Thank you for your help | 20:11 |
| hi5 | nevrmind | 20:11 |
| sniperjo_ | Scunizi: but if i run xrandr from a remote ssh it runs differently, dont i need to export the display or something | 20:11 |
| hi5 | will send you the invoice btw | 20:11 |
| ButtaKnife | ct529: I'm a bit confused by that myself, but I'm not quite awake enough to figure it out. :P | 20:11 |
| cryogenfx | sam-_-: not that concerned about that, as my laptop is secured in other ways, so if they get into desktop i have other problems :) | 20:11 |
| zaery | do i need to install anything extra to be able to ssh into my fresh ubuntu 10.10 desktop install? | 20:11 |
| sam-_- | cryogenfx, use the command seahorse | 20:11 |
| sniperjo_ | Scunizi: as if i was trying to run an app on the host computer | 20:11 |
| sam-_- | cryogenfx, i use unsafe storage as well. i just thought you might want to know | 20:12 |
| hi5 | zaery: i am almost sure you dont | 20:12 |

| sam-_- | cryogenfx, leave the new password field blank. then click ok | 20:13 |
| sam-_- | cryogenfx, then click on unsafe storage | 20:13 |
| cryogenfx | sam-_-: passwords: default i presume, and not passwords: login? | 20:13 |
| sam-_- | cryogenfx, pardon me: passwords: login | 20:14 |
| buggerme | New to ubuntu: How do I fully remove wine and all applications within it? | 20:14 |
| ButtaKnife | ct529: One possible option would be to add the appropriate lib paths to the makefiles of your programs. If that's not possible or a feasible solution, setting LD_LIBRARY_PATH when you need to compile will do the trick. | 20:14 |
| no_dvi_output | zaery: you need to install the ssh server on your desktop, in case you haven't done so already run the command | 20:14 |
| no_dvi_output | sudo apt-get install openssh-server | 20:14 |
| cryogenfx | sam-_-: ok, password set blank | 20:14 |
| zaery | sweet, thanks | 20:14 |
| sam-_- | cryogenfx, you can do it for both but your wifi passwords are in passwords:login i assume | 20:14 |

| cryogenfx | sam-_-: ok, i'll relog to check | 20:15 |
| minimec | buggerme: Just remove the .wine folder in your /home directory. Afterwards you may want to start <alt>F2 alacarte, to remove the links from your menu. | 20:15 |
| sam-_- | cryogenfx, good luck :-) | 20:16 |
| ct529 | ButtaKnife: yes to the second option, do not udnerstand the first one | 20:16 |
| sam-_- | zariz, most wifi cards work out of the box | 20:16 |

| tsuna27 | xangua: like what | 20:17 |
| ButtaKnife | ct529: Doing a quick bit of research shows that changing LD_LIBRARY_PATH is discouraged. The appropriate behavior for programs that need other library paths specified is to use the -L flag in GCC to specify additional library paths. | 20:17 |
| xangua | aaah, or all¿¿ tsuna27 | 20:17 |
| xangua | of* | 20:17 |
| tsuna27 | xangua: ?? | 20:18 |
| hi5 | changing standard path is always a bad idea | 20:18 |
| hi5 | instead add new ones | 20:19 |
| minimec | sniperjo_: If you have no problems with other monitor, then the intel driver seems to be working correctly, I guess. So keep the intel driver. | 20:19 |
| ct529 | ButtaKnife: I thought that the reason for Ubuntu having a /etc/ld.so.conf.d/ directory was to avoid that | 20:19 |
| hi5 | sniperjo_: are you on multimonitor? laptop with tv? | 20:19 |

| ButtaKnife | ct529: http://xahlee.org/UnixResource_dir/_/ldpath.html explains LD_LIBRARY_PATH a bit, but not how to modify makefiles to point to the proper libraries. In short, you could still modify the variable yourself if you need to, but if you have the familiarity with makefiles to make changes, adding the library paths to the makefile is the best option. | 20:19 |

| NickyT942 | A shockwave equivalent? | 20:21 |
| hi5 | NickyT942: are you telling me something still runs on shockwawe? | 20:21 |
| minimec | sniperjo_: Well you shouldn't need any xorg.conf with any recent ubuntu distribution. So if you have one, delete any /etc/X11/xorg.conf | 20:21 |

| ShootEmUp | Hello Everyone! | 20:21 |
| ct529 | ButtaKnife: thanks for the article .... it does not really make clear why Ubuntu has gone the ld.conf.d way .... mmmm | 20:22 |
| alaing | anyone? | 20:22 |
| sniperjo_ | minimec: without it my video acceleration wont work | 20:22 |
| cryogenfx | sam-_-; hey, it was the other one, passwords:default, now it has stopped pestering me about the password a bunch of times. thanks mate | 20:22 |
| NickyT942 | So no Shockwave? | 20:22 |
| ButtaKnife | ct529: Agreed. I'm not terribly familiar with the ld.conf.d method, so I would have to do more research on that. | 20:22 |
| ct529 | ButtaKnife: because some programs are automatically compiled, I need to set it maybe not globally bu at least for that group of programs | 20:22 |
| sam-_-_ | cryogenfx, no problem | 20:22 |
| NickyT942 | Is there a Shockwave live thing I can run like java? | 20:22 |
| NickyT942 | Trick it into working? | 20:23 |
| ButtaKnife | ct529: The lazy coder in me would just say to script something to update the path when compiling those programs and then possibly undo the changes. I suppose ld.conf.d would accomplish that. | 20:23 |
| minimec | sniperjo_: In that case I would search for a (or file a) bug for your GPU. An Intel GPU should run with 3d acceleration out of the box. | 20:24 |
| zteam | Marchitos: Be careful, sudo should never be used to run any GUI (Window) application | 20:24 |
| ct529 | ButtaKnife: I have to think about it .... thanks a lot though! | 20:24 |
| sam-_-_ | NickyT942, what do you need it for? just curious | 20:24 |
| ButtaKnife | user: The /etc/sudoers file that you edit with visudo contains examples of how sudo entries should be formatted. | 20:24 |
| alaing | can someone help me install my dlink dwa-140 usb wifi dongle. At first I plugged it in and it saw some networks but would not connect to my network eve nafter turning off mac access control and encryption. I then followed this thread http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1016108 but with the latest drviers from ralink. Now it simply does not see any networks. I may have done something... | 20:24 |
| alaing | ...wrong as I left out part 8 as I was not sure what I needed to replace but I did do the rest of them | 20:24 |
| ButtaKnife | ct529: Good luck! Maybe Google a bit for ld.conf.d or LD_LIBRARY_PATH for some general examples, even if they're not CUDA-specific. | 20:24 |
| ct529 | ButtaKnife: thanks! | 20:24 |
| Pici | user: You need to add your user to the 'admin' group, not the 'adm' group to let them use sudo. 'adm' is for accessing stuff under /var/log and is unrelated to sudo. | 20:25 |

| rdz | hi all. i am looking for a solution to archive my audio cd. i'd prefer to rip from cd to the flac format. are there any recommendations for what tool to use? i know jack (the ripper a bit) but can't figure out whether it also rips to flac or only to mp3? | 20:30 |
| Pici | user: The rest of the steps there you can do at your own discretion. | 20:30 |

| DEAD_BEEF | I think I screwed up some permissions | 20:32 |
| thiefy_ | rdz lame is the best program to use. it's stands for lame ain't an mp3 encoder. that is the best thing to use to make mp3s. to rip them i am not sure as i haven't done that in years. | 20:32 |
| sam-_-_ | thiefy_, i still don't understand | 20:32 |
| zteam | <sam-_-_> It, switch the graphics settings to single output, then I try to watch a movie, with Totem, almost everytime | 20:33 |

| seul | hi! When i boot my computer, 1 out of 3 times i reach bios, where i enter the correct HDD to boot to, and when i choose "save changes and exit", and the computer boots, the screen just stays black. Why is that? And then the next time i manage to get it booting, it wont remember my changes in bios. | 20:35 |
| zteam | thiefy_: Exactly... it's working perfect if I use VLC instead, but I don't think that VLC is very good with HD-movies | 20:35 |
| smw | thiefy_, we are not that dumb here :-P | 20:35 |
| thiefy_ | rdz, is tehre a reason that mp3 is not good for you? keep in mind any mp3 player you buy or iphone or google phone will prob not play flac unless you get a custom rom on that thing... it's best to use mp3 as everything plays mp3 great. and if you encode to 192 kbp/s then it will sound just fine. i see no use for flac. but tha's just my opinion. | 20:36 |
| thiefy_ | smw, heheh, i just thought if it was a hard bash question, then that would be a good place to ask.... | 20:37 |
| anon33_ | anyone here on a macbook that could tell me how i could manually adjust the brightness settings on ubuntu? | 20:37 |
| anon33_ | the function keys suddently stopped working overnight | 20:37 |
| zteam | seul: Try to update your bios, but be CAREFUL :-)) | 20:37 |
| thiefy_ | seul, is that a desktop or a laptop you are using? | 20:37 |
| antlong | hi guys, i need to run some commands like this after the gnome boots, where should it go? "DISPLAY=localhost:0.0; export DISPLAY" | 20:37 |
| seul | zteam: right now i cant even reach bios. stupid computer wont even boot up so i can see bios. | 20:37 |
| thiefy_ | seul, it sounds like your bios / cmos battery is dead. | 20:38 |
| antlong | seul, sounds like bad ram or battery | 20:38 |
| rdz | thiefy_, i simply don't want it to be lossy.. it's also for archiving.. even if your ears don't notice the compression, it's hard to work with such recordings in the future and do some processing, because then the compression artefacts will suddenly be audible.. to be on the safe side i prefer flac | 20:38 |
| DEAD_BEEF | If I recursively copied a directory without using -p to preserve permissions, what are the chances of recovering the original permissions? | 20:38 |
| Yoshimi | Anyone here knowledgeable about UPnP Media Servers on Ubuntu? | 20:38 |
| zteam | seul: Have you changed any BIOS setting? | 20:39 |
| hi5 | it's possible that a torrent iso could be damaged? i mean downloaded with torrent | 20:39 |
| smw | DEAD_BEEF, do you have the original? 100%. Not? 0% | 20:39 |
| thiefy_ | rdz i hear ya... good point. hmm, i do not know of a good flac encoder though. hahah. just know of the one - that does mp3s. | 20:39 |
| seul | thiefy_ and antlong: yes, it acctually said that the battery was low earlier. But i thought it was just because i had taken it out and reset the cmos. Is it normal that you have to change the battery sometimes? Computer is 1.5 years old. | 20:39 |
| DEAD_BEEF | smw: that's what I was afraid of | 20:39 |
| antlong | seul, its rare but it happens | 20:39 |
| hi5 | Yoshimi: only a little upnp, not media | 20:39 |
| hi5 | what's that for? | 20:39 |
| DEAD_BEEF | smw: luckily I'm not a sysadmin | 20:39 |
| thiefy_ | seul, is it a laptop? | 20:39 |
| Yoshimi | Ah, I need to find an alternative to using M$ on my server | 20:39 |
| Yoshimi | I hate it, it's buggy and awful | 20:39 |
| hi5 | quite a good netsplit though | 20:40 |
| seul | thiefy_: no its a stationary. | 20:40 |
| thiefy_ | a desktop... | 20:40 |
| antlong | seul, the lack of being able to even get to bios is normally due to bad ram | 20:40 |
| thiefy_ | the battery we are talking about is a little one that is about the size of a wrist watch. | 20:40 |
| rdz | thiefy_, the encode is called flac.. but i am looking for something like jack, which does the ripping, encoding and tagging in one go | 20:40 |
| Yoshimi | But the media server is much nicer | 20:40 |
| user | !netsplit | 20:40 |
| antlong | seul, do you see the tiny light, lit up on the motherboard | 20:40 |
| ubottu | netsplit is when two IRC servers of the same network (like freenode) disconnect from each other, so users on one server stop seeing users on the other. If this is happening now, just relax and enjoy the show. See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Netsplit | 20:40 |
| hi5 | seul: or damaged mainboard too | 20:40 |
| seul | antlong: what are you talking about? I know what the battery is | 20:41 |
| zteam | seul: try to remove one of your RAM modules (assuming you have more than one) | 20:41 |
| DEAD_BEEF | smw: is cp -R predictable in what permissions is changes/discards? | 20:41 |
| antlong | seul, what? | 20:41 |
| seul | zteam: ok, i have 2. Ill remove the second one. | 20:41 |
| smw | DEAD_BEEF, it makes everything the same permissions. | 20:41 |
| seul | antlong: you were talking about some light in the pc or something | 20:41 |
| hi5 | and then do the same for the other one - seul - | 20:41 |
| antlong | seul, no, its a small led on the motherboard | 20:41 |
| seul | antlong: i have a green light on it | 20:41 |
| smw | DEAD_BEEF, there is no data you can get from the permissions. | 20:41 |
| smw | DEAD_BEEF, what happened? | 20:42 |
| antlong | seul, how many ram chips do you have | 20:42 |
| seul | antlong: 2, at 2gig each | 20:42 |
| nothingspecial | rdz: abcde, you can find some good example configs here http://www.andrews-corner.org/abcde.html | 20:42 |
| Yoshimi | So nobody with UPnP media server knowledge? | 20:42 |
| antlong | seul, take one out and try to boot, if that doesnt work, put it back, take the other out and try to boot | 20:42 |
| thiefy_ | seul, a good way to see if a PC's hardware is working well is to run an ubuntu live cd. (or usb key) if it boots and runs well, then your ram is fine, and the other components probaly are fine also. | 20:42 |
| seul | antlong: ok, give me 5 | 20:43 |
| DEAD_BEEF | I added a 1TB drive and cp -Red my /home/user folder to the mounted drive then dropped to a root shell ... | 20:43 |
| seul | thiefy_: well i cant even get to bios right now so. | 20:43 |
| thiefy_ | do you hear beeps when you turn it on? | 20:43 |
| DEAD_BEEF | smw: ... then edited fstab, you get the idea | 20:43 |
| thiefy_ | from the internel speaker? | 20:43 |
| seul | thiefy_: i acctually have it in right now, hehe | 20:43 |
| seul | thiefy_: no not right now. But give me 5 and ill remove some of the ram and tell you the results | 20:43 |
| smw | DEAD_BEEF, makes sense. You can just chown your home directory to you | 20:44 |
| thiefy_ | bad ram is prob not the case. that is just a random guess as to what is broken.... | 20:44 |
| thiefy_ | if you can't get to the bios, then ram has nothing to do with that problem. | 20:44 |
| DEAD_BEEF | smw: well, I still have ownership, but not complete write perms | 20:44 |
| antlong | thiefy_, sure it would. bad ram would prevent you from getting to bios | 20:44 |
| smw | DEAD_BEEF, then go through and change permissions as needed. For example, give 0 permissions to others for your home dir (not recursive). | 20:44 |
| smw | DEAD_BEEF, that does not make sense | 20:45 |
| thiefy_ | if the computer can't post. then i wouldn't look at the ram first. | 20:45 |
| hi5 | bad ram would prevent doing anything | 20:45 |
| thiefy_ | but yeah, sorry, you are correct. it does need ram to get to the bios. | 20:45 |
| smw | DEAD_BEEF, ls -l your home dir | 20:45 |
| seul | thiefy_ and antlong: i removed the ram one at a time, and still only black screen. Some random beeping but i think it does that every time i boot | 20:45 |
| DEAD_BEEF | smw: I'll have to check when I get back home | 20:45 |
| thiefy_ | note the beeping. those are post codes. you can google themt o see what they mean. | 20:45 |
| hi5 | seul random beeping is odd | 20:46 |
| seul | thiefy_ and antlong: should i try to get a hold of a new battery? | 20:46 |
| smw | DEAD_BEEF, ok | 20:46 |
| thiefy_ | restart it again, and see what the post codes are saying. | 20:46 |
| hi5 | how mant beeps? long or short ones? | 20:46 |
| antlong | seul, no if the battery was dead it wouldnt do anything | 20:46 |
| thiefy_ | seul, probaly not. i bet the battery is fine. | 20:46 |
| thiefy_ | yeah, what antlong said. heheh | 20:46 |
| antlong | seul, maybe something got unseated? try to reseat your chips | 20:46 |
| DEAD_BEEF | smw: thanks | 20:46 |
| seul | thiefy_ and hi5: just one beep. But i think it has done that always, even when it was working | 20:46 |
| hi5 | antlong battery is needed only to save parameters | 20:46 |
| hi5 | cmos | 20:46 |
| thiefy_ | one beep is normal. | 20:46 |
| hi5 | it runs however | 20:46 |
| hi5 | yes one is good | 20:46 |
| antlong | this might be a job for the geek squad lol | 20:47 |

| alaing | what does sudo sumake do? | 20:50 |
| thiefy_ | seul, don't remove the heatsink off your main processor though. you need thermal paste if you reapply it. | 20:50 |
| chrislsp | gives you super user rights | 20:50 |

| antlong | seul, just dont remove the heatsink (im assuming you dont have conductive gel to apply) | 20:51 |
| alaing | shoul it be sudo su make or sudo sumake? | 20:51 |

| zteam | seul: some old motherboards do have problems with SATA-cabels, that may glitch | 20:54 |
| seul | zteam: ok, brb with results.. | 20:54 |
| thiefy_ | if your computer catches fire, unplug it mate. | 20:55 |
| MrUnagi | smw: any way to keep it from closing the session after the command? | 20:55 |
| nothingspecial | MrUnagi: screen | 20:55 |
| smw | MrUnagi, the only thing I can think of is to run bash after. | 20:55 |
| smw | MrUnagi, it is a hack, but it would work | 20:56 |
| alaing | how do i revert back to before I did the first lot of make and make install | 20:56 |
| hi5 | thiefy_: also an extinguisher could be suitable.. | 20:56 |
| smw | nothingspecial, not screen. | 20:56 |

| cab938_ | but it doesn't seem to show up on tab completion | 20:58 |
| zteam | alaing: okey... | 20:58 |
| cab938_ | and when I apt-get install it by name it doesn't work (can't be found) | 20:58 |
| smw | MrUnagi, I am not sure what you should do. | 20:58 |
| hi5 | using backtrack can you test if your wpa password is just fine? | 20:58 |
| cab938_ | This is the ppa: https://launchpad.net/~gstreamer-developers/+archive/ppa | 20:58 |

| cab938_ | I did update, nothingspecial , here was the output: http://pastebin.com/DAtELgjQ | 21:00 |
| hogdwarf | Is some app in mono default in ubuntu ? | 21:00 |
| zteam | cab938_: well if you did, it should find it easily... :) | 21:00 |
| cab938_ | It seems that the main launchpad was retrieved but the gstreamer one ignored. No idea why this might be. | 21:00 |
| zaery | thiefy_ it depends on how the ram is bad. If it's broken in such a way that it acts as if it's not there, then you won't be getting into the bios with it. | 21:01 |
| zteam | cab938_: try to use apt-get search and see what it finds then | 21:01 |
| zaery | LOL, i was just reading something from a long time ago, i just didnt realize that the scrollbar was halfway up the screed :D | 21:01 |
| alaing | hi5 how do i use backtrack? | 21:01 |
| erUSUL | !backtrack | 21:02 |
| ubottu | There are some Ubuntu derivatives that we cannot provide support for due to repository and software changes. Please consult their websites for more information. Examples: gNewSense (support in #gnewsense), Linux Mint (see !mint), LinuxMCE (support in #linuxmce), CrunchBang (support in #crunchbang), BackTrack (support in #backtrack-linux), Ultimate Edition | 21:02 |
| hi5 | alaing: i think with a live cd | 21:02 |
| hogdwarf | Is Ubuntu prone to Mono exploit ? | 21:02 |
| hi5 | if they have one either | 21:02 |
| smw | hogdwarf, not as far as I know | 21:02 |
| hi5 | what kind of exploit is that? buffer overflow one? | 21:03 |
| livingdaylight | how do I uninstall an adobe application? | 21:03 |
| cab938_ | zteam, When I run aptitude search gst-plugins-ugly0.10 I get nothing, just a little grind then another prompt | 21:03 |
| cragdor | Whats the correct channel for an issue with NVidia Binary Driver and 10.10, i have a GTS250, which is apparently not supported | 21:03 |
| hogdwarf | hi5: dunno what kind of it is | 21:03 |
| zteam | alaing: thanks for the tip, this one seems really promising | 21:03 |
| smw | livingdaylight, how did you install it? | 21:03 |
| hogdwarf | its local root privileges escalation | 21:03 |
| hogdwarf | arbitrary code execution | 21:03 |
| zaery | cab938_, do you have the right repositories on? | 21:03 |
| hi5 | cragdor: you card HAS to be supported | 21:03 |
| alaing | I use it and its browser based. | 21:03 |
| hi5 | how did you figured out the contrary? | 21:03 |
| alaing | zteam: no problems | 21:03 |
| livingdaylight | smw, its an adobe application so with Adobe | 21:03 |
| alaing | I'm starting to hate this wifi | 21:04 |
| hi5 | hogdwarf: i see..a common one so | 21:04 |
| cragdor | It is supported according to Appendix A of the README, but ubuntu reports its not | 21:04 |
| hi5 | i dont know btw | 21:04 |
| smw | livingdaylight, did you use a package? | 21:04 |
| smw | livingdaylight, was it just a random binary? | 21:04 |
| livingdaylight | smw, no, just right click and open with adobe | 21:04 |
| livingdaylight | smw, Spaz an adobe twitter client | 21:04 |
| hi5 | cragdor: if i were i would try maybe the 10.04 version with a live cd and see if working | 21:04 |
| hogdwarf | its mentioned it was tested against Suse | 21:05 |
| deadsmith | Can someone tell me the correct way to boot to text login? Should I create a functioning rc3, change rc2, or something else entirely? | 21:05 |
| hogdwarf | but | 21:05 |
| zteam | cab938_: well, try to search for gst-plugins or something instead then? | 21:05 |
| hi5 | gts250 is quite old nowadays | 21:05 |
| smw | livingdaylight, no idea, sorry, I did not understand | 21:05 |
| alaing | oh do i revert back after doing make && make install. basically I wont to undo http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1016108 | 21:05 |
| hogdwarf | i dont know any hardening part which are not included in suse | 21:05 |
| seul | people who were helping me earlier: ok so i reset the cmos battery and booted. Now I get "CMOS BATTERY LOW" and press f1 to resume. Is it normal to say that it is low here? | 21:05 |
| cragdor | hi5: Not that old..... Ubuntu 10.04 worked great but was a pain in the *** to install due to fake raid, this has only happened since upgrading to 10.10 | 21:06 |
| cab938_ | zteam, it still doesn't find it. Is it normal for this ppa to be ignored on an apt-get update? | 21:06 |
| hi5 | hogdwarf: that's a very technical issue..i bet maybe 10 of 1500 people here knows what you're talking about | 21:06 |
| hi5 | seul maybe the battery has gone | 21:06 |
| hi5 | but did you solve your previous problem? | 21:06 |
| azert | hi, what version of virtualbox should contain the ubuntu repo ? | 21:06 |
| hogdwarf | hi5: and i dont know if it has something to do with lsm | 21:07 |
| john24 | how do i get rid of compiz? | 21:07 |
| azert | is the 3.X or 4.0 ? | 21:07 |
| seul | hi5: i have never even heard of people having to change their battery. I think that the earlier problem will come back after i exit the bios | 21:07 |
| zteam | seul: Nope, it isn't, try with replacing that battery | 21:07 |
| hi5 | seul changing battery happens..usually because of a defective one | 21:07 |
| hi5 | or after many time of use | 21:07 |
| guntbert | azert: you find that on the vbox website | 21:08 |
| hi5 | or if you always unplug power when pc is off | 21:08 |
| hogdwarf | hi5: btw do you know how to compile mono app ? i think that PoC is in mono but never did that | 21:08 |

| hi5 | also a mojito will be highly appreciated :-D | 21:13 |
| thiefy_ | seul, do you have a video card in that mofo? | 21:13 |
| zaery | seul, have you tried using only one stick of ram(assuming you have more than one)? | 21:13 |
| erUSUL | user: man userdel or use the users and groups gui system>admin...>user and groups | 21:13 |
| alaing | hi5 and of course the cmos hack of reseting the password | 21:13 |
| seul | thiefy: yes a radeon HD4850. I have ttried the onboard video aswell | 21:13 |
| seul | zaery: yes, someone told me to earlier. | 21:14 |
| alaing | OMG i reset my machine and hey the wifi is working wtf | 21:14 |
| user | erUSUL, I don't want to delete user, I just want to remove him from a group. I have only CLI. | 21:14 |
| erUSUL | Leoneof: define « installing modules, » what did you actually did? | 21:14 |
| thiefy_ | what happens when you plug your monitor into the on board vid card? | 21:14 |
| zaery | seul, and you've tried each stick individually? | 21:14 |
| user | alaing: Yay. | 21:14 |
| * alaing was so close to kicking the side of his server to see if it was still working | 21:14 | |
| thiefy_ | alaing, that's cause i fixed it. and hi5 helped too. | 21:14 |
| seul | zaery; yes. | 21:14 |
| thiefy_ | alaing, you owe hi5 a beer. | 21:14 |
| Leoneof | erUSUL: i think it was about alsa :| | 21:14 |
| user | How do I list all groups here? | 21:14 |
| seul | thiefy: nothing. Still just a black screen. | 21:15 |
| alaing | lol I would buy you both a beer | 21:15 |
| erUSUL | Leoneof: what did you do? you followed a guide i can read or something? | 21:15 |
| user | How do I list all user groups here? | 21:15 |
| thiefy_ | alaing, come to canada, i'll be waiting at the airport for you. | 21:15 |
| thiefy_ | seul, when you boot that mofo, put your hand on the hard drive. do you feel it spinning? or vibrating? | 21:16 |
| zteam | seul: so, all you get is a black screen after you picked out, the battery, is that correct? | 21:16 |
| guntbert | user: "here" being what? your ubuntu or this IRC network? | 21:16 |
| user | guntbert: ubuntu | 21:16 |
| seul | thiefy: uyes i have done that, its working | 21:16 |
| Leoneof | erUSUL: didn't follow any guide, but i was stupid enough to search and play about "modules" :( | 21:16 |
| guntbert | user: cat /etc/group | 21:16 |
| bactrim | i am running an old ibm thinkpad R31 installed now with your 10.10 version. problem with power management : laptop does not resume from sleep when closing lid (tried pressing everything) hibernation resume works ok. there seems to be a bug but can not decipher it well - some guidance would be appreciated thank you! btw i installed a dual boot xp OS on this too, and sleep/hibernate work fine on that end. | 21:17 |
| alaing | thiefy_: sounds like a threat lol....my wife will be happy once i get this server out of the lounge and into the spair room | 21:17 |
| seul | zteam: after i picked out the battery i goit this screen saying my battery was low. When i clicked f1 to continue pretty much nothing happen | 21:17 |
| thiefy_ | seul, rip out all cards that you can. liket he vid card, the sound card, the network card, one of the ram dims... unplug the cd roms... everything you can so that it can still boot. | 21:17 |
| erUSUL | Leoneof: reaaly dunno; if i do not know what you did how are we supposed to fix it? | 21:17 |
| savid | Is it possible to upgrade a single package on my server without having to do an entire dist-upgrade? | 21:17 |
| Leoneof | erUSUL: :/ | 21:17 |
| Irreducibilis | After running an update, my Ubuntu hard-froze and wouldn't even reply to SysRq + REISUB | 21:17 |
| user | savid: apt-get update packagename iirc | 21:17 |
| Irreducibilis | Why is this? | 21:17 |
| thiefy_ | alaing, no no, not a threat, i will welcome you at the airport. but i will direct you to the lounge where you will be forced to buy me and hi5 a beer. | 21:18 |
| savid | user: it says it's up-to-date, but it's an old version. | 21:18 |
| Irreducibilis | It returned to what appeared to be the boot screen but with the mouse visible, and it wouldn't move or respond | 21:18 |
| Irreducibilis | I had to pull the battery. | 21:18 |
| seul | thiefy_: hmm.. ill probably destroy something else. My history of "fixing" stuff is kinda bad. | 21:18 |
| Leoneof | erUSUL: brb | 21:18 |
| savid | I'm trying to update to git >=1.7 | 21:18 |
| savid | currently have 1.6 | 21:18 |
| thiefy_ | seul, i wonder if the computer is getting enough power to fully boot. that is why i'm thinking to rip out things that are taking power. | 21:19 |
| zteam | seul: okey, here is what I would do in your place: 1. Remove the battery and take it to a clock store or some computer store. | 21:19 |
| seul | thiefy_: i doubt it. I have a 650W corsair.. | 21:19 |
| |Bboy| | Anyone have experience in TerminatorX | 21:20 |
| thiefy_ | seul how old is that computer? | 21:20 |
| hi5 | thiefy_: so you got a beer also for you..well made | 21:20 |
| thiefy_ | that is why i'm here hi5. to earn beers. | 21:20 |
| zteam | seul: 2. After you done that, you may use "Ultimate Boot CD" to check your hardware | 21:20 |
| seul | thiefy_: about 1.5 years. All new components | 21:20 |
| thiefy_ | i really doubt the battery died in 1.5 years. i have computers that are 7 years old and the battery i just fine in them. | 21:21 |
| seul | zteam: kinda hard to do that, considering how i cant even reach bios. | 21:21 |
| hi5 | like homer? | 21:21 |
| user | How do I install it? -su: groupdel: command not found | 21:21 |
| seul | thiefy_: exactly, i have too. I see no reasong why it should have died. Worked fine like 5 hours ago. | 21:21 |
| thiefy_ | hi5, yeah, beer makes it all worthwile. | 21:21 |
| zaery | seul, i don't suppose you have a cpu that'll fit in that socket and some extra thermal paste, do you? | 21:21 |
| hi5 | you said that | 21:22 |
| hi5 | but mojito is not bad either | 21:22 |
| seul | zaery: no i dont. | 21:22 |
| thiefy_ | i don't think i've ever had one of those. but we can't speak of this or some op will tell us we are off topic and take it to some other channel. | 21:22 |
| MrUnagi | is there a way to grep a log for an exact phrase and take those entries and put it in a new file? | 21:22 |
| shcherbak | |Bboy|: Use tmux or screen to enrich your expirience. | 21:22 |
| thiefy_ | seul, did you remove the battery from the motherboard? | 21:23 |
| zteam | seul: Yes, that's why I suggest you take your cmos-battery to a computer store, so they can replace it for you | 21:23 |
| seul | thiefy_: yes i removed it, waited a little, and put it right back in. | 21:23 |
| seul | zteam: ok, ill look into that. | 21:23 |
| alaing | thiefy_: I would buy you and hi5 a beer regardless......I'm based in UK btw | 21:23 |
| thiefy_ | seul, do that again, but this time turn off the power supply, unplug the computer, remove the batt and wait 45 seconds, then plug everything back in. that'll totally reset the cmos. | 21:23 |
| thiefy_ | alaing, ok, we will fly there then. | 21:24 |
| upsla | hi i have usb adsl modem .i ubable to connect to internet. can some body help ???????????????????? | 21:24 |
| zteam | seul: AFTER you try that, you should hopefully be able to use Ultimate boot cd to check your hardware | 21:24 |
| hi5 | alaing: maybe i lost your topic, did you sorted out your issue? | 21:24 |
| |Bboy| | shcherbak: are you sure that was meant for me? | 21:24 |
| zteam | seul: :-) | 21:24 |
| user | and how do I add a user to a group? | 21:24 |

| shcherbak | |Bboy|: you talk of terminatorx, many terminals "glued", right? | 21:25 |
| upsla | hi i have usb adsl modem .i ubable to connect to internet. can some body help ???????????????????? | 21:25 |
| thiefy_ | upsla, short answer is - use an ethernet connection. it works much better than a usb connection for the modem. do you have that option? | 21:26 |
| |Bboy| | scherbak: no.. i was referring to the dj program in ubuntu http://packages.ubuntu.com/dapper/terminatorx | 21:26 |
| upsla | thiefy_:no. | 21:26 |
| hi5 | ok nice | 21:26 |
| shcherbak | |Bboy|: sorry, wrong | 21:26 |
| thiefy_ | upsla, what is the model number of that modem? | 21:26 |
| hi5 | the power of reboot xd | 21:27 |

| alaing | ok ok I work in SW1H but live out of london | 21:31 |
| rubbs | feder87: /dev/zero is a special file. There is not end to that file. It will fill your hard drive with zeros... | 21:31 |

| feder87 | but is there a way to figure how much longer I got with that? | 21:32 |
| thiefy_ | upsla, you tried what they tried? | 21:32 |
| namnatulco | feder87: if you know the average writing speed of the drive, sure | 21:32 |

| adac | zaery, my internet is indeed not the fastest lately. i will try it on a faster conection tomorrow. | 21:42 |
| chowder | alaing, you can't. You need to do a fresh install. You can not update from 8.04 to 10.10. | 21:42 |
| alaing | not even update from 8.04 to 9.04 then 10? | 21:42 |
| JabberWalkie_ | I have a program in python that is asking for python 2.7 or greater, how do I install it? Will I mess up my system if I just download the source and make install? | 21:42 |
| === denny- is now known as denny | ||
| JackSTEAM | zarry, i have seen that before. but i'd rarther not redownload it all. http://developer.valvesoftware.com/wiki/Steam_under_Linux has a section about symlink your steamapps folder but i'm unsure how | 21:43 |
| iflema | alaing: goto software sources and set it to normal release and update then upgrade = 8.04 -> 10.04 | 21:43 |
| IdleOne | !upgrade > alaing | 21:43 |
| ubottu | alaing, please see my private message | 21:43 |
| === jens is now known as Guest99263 | ||
| chowder | alaing, you will most likely run into issues if you do it that way. You'll also take a whole lot longer. Weird things happen when you update. In my opinion, a fresh install is best. | 21:43 |
| upsla | alaing:it will be waste of time.just download 10.10 if u want to be up to date. | 21:43 |
| chowder | alaing, just make sure you back up all your stuff. Another tip: if you haven't already, keep your personal information on a separate partition. | 21:44 |
| alaing | is this why its better to keep on top of releases? | 21:44 |
| rvdavid | thiefy_ yeah thanks for the tip brother, I was actually testing nickserv killed imposters using my name, but then got _totally_ distracted when a girl came in lol back on T. | 21:44 |
| Rubberduck_LV | alaing: You can do it, but you'll regret it! Do a clean new install.. | 21:44 |
| zaery | JackSteam, what part of http://developer.valvesoftware.com/wiki/Steam_under_Linux#Save_space_on_dual-boot_machines is causing the confusion? | 21:44 |
| upsla | alaing:absoluetly. | 21:45 |
| dajhorn | JabberWalkie: Don't install Python 2.7 over top of the Ubuntu package. Python is an important system component. Install to /usr/local or try to find a PPA package for it on Launchpad. | 21:45 |
| thiefy_ | upsla, i'm still researching, hold on. | 21:45 |
| cyril | Hello all, I am running eclipse under ubuntu and started a php project using symfony with doctrine. I would like an advice on which visual modelling tool to use in order to generate yaml files for doctrine... | 21:45 |
| alaing | I suppose its a good way to get rid of the bloat | 21:45 |
| upsla | thiefy_:k | 21:45 |
| chowder | alaing, yep. It is a lot better to keep on top of releases. If you want to save all of your packages so you don't have to reinstall you may wanna check out apt-on-cd. | 21:45 |
| thiefy_ | rvdavid, lisa1 is very pretty, you should see her smile. very nice. | 21:45 |
| JackSTEAM | zaery, the part with the command for terminal. i get an error, when i checked the error it seems i need to 'mount' the windows drive. but i don't know how | 21:45 |
| chowder | cyril, you may wanna check out a dev channel. | 21:46 |
| zteam | lisa1: Well, you can ask almost anything about Ubuntu here | 21:46 |
| cyril | @chowder, yes, any suggestion? | 21:46 |
| alaing | i'm going to be running my headless ubuntu server how do i set it up to auto update if the need arises | 21:46 |
| chowder | cyril, I think there's an ubuntu-developers channel | 21:46 |
| alaing | and add it to a cron jon before it shutdowns in the evening | 21:46 |
| * iflema updates/upgrades just fine :P | 21:46 | |
| tensorpudding | alaing: are you sure you want it to update automatically? | 21:47 |
| cyril | @chowder ok, thks | 21:47 |
| hi5 | where can i find out why linux wont shutdown my pc anymore? | 21:47 |
| hi5 | reboot either not working | 21:47 |

| rvdavid | thiefy_ d*mn you! you got a pic! I definitely should take macking classes from you! :P | 21:47 |
| zaery | JackSteam, when you click on "places", do you see an entry that says 200gb filesystem(or however big your windows partition is)? | 21:47 |

| JackSTEAM | zaery, no i don't | 21:48 |
| upsla | ubottu:!auto update | 21:48 |

| === todd_ is now known as Yoshimi | ||
| upsla | thiefy_:any suggestions ??????? | 21:49 |
| alaing | !auto update | 21:49 |
| chowder | hi5: sorry :p but you should've made a more specific query. Running in here blindly asking for help will get you nowhere, at least with me. Google has solved many of my problems without me having to bother anyone. Forums and IRC should be your last stop. | 21:49 |
| tensorpudding | !auto-update | 21:49 |
| zaery | JackSteam, are there any filesystems on the left bar of a nautilus window? | 21:49 |
| tensorpudding | !autoupdate | 21:49 |
| alaing | !auto-update | 21:49 |
| JackSTEAM | zaery, come again? not sure what you mean | 21:49 |
| alaing | tensorpudding: what does that command do | 21:50 |
| tensorpudding | but anyway | 21:50 |
| upsla | ubottu:!update | 21:50 |
| ubottu | For upgrading, see the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes - see also http://www.ubuntu.com/desktop/get-ubuntu/upgrade | 21:50 |
| zaery | jacksteam, if you open up your home folder, there's a bat on the left with things like "Documents" "Music", etc, right? | 21:50 |
| tensorpudding | aptitude update; aptitude upgrade will update package definitions and upgrade packages | 21:50 |
| zaery | jacksteam: a bar, not a bat | 21:50 |
| hi5 | chowder: buy maybe someone else got a very similar problem, so we can figure it out however | 21:50 |
| tensorpudding | using the -y option, it will automatically assume [yes] to all questions | 21:50 |
| upsla | thiefy_:any suggestions ??????? | 21:50 |
| thiefy_ | rvdavid, i will share her, but you have to come to canada. | 21:51 |
| tensorpudding | and you can pipe the text output to a logfile, and put it in cron to be run however often you want | 21:51 |
| thiefy_ | upsla, this link looks good: http://www.ae.iitm.ac.in/pipermail/ilugc/2006-August/027978.html but i fear it is quite hard to accomplish what you want to do. | 21:51 |
| hi5 | searching in google can be very painful and timeless | 21:51 |
| sniperjo_ | following http://wiki.debian.org/XStrikeForce/HowToRandR12 i should be able to use xrandr over ssh like : xrandr -display :0.0, but i still get a "cant open display" any ideas ? | 21:51 |
| JackSTEAM | zaery, yes | 21:51 |
| alaing | so if i add a crontab to aptitude -y it shoudl auto update? | 21:51 |
| zaery | jacksteam, do any of those say filesystem? | 21:51 |
| tensorpudding | aptitude update; aptitude upgrade -y | 21:52 |
| alaing | its just a webserver so not to concerned | 21:52 |
| upsla | thiefy_:i tried that one too.!!!!!!!!!! | 21:52 |
| JackSTEAM | zaery yes | 21:52 |
| alaing | tensorpudding: both of those commands? | 21:52 |
| tensorpudding | yes | 21:52 |
| zvrk | hi5, did you try 'shoutdown -h now' in terminal | 21:52 |
| === thiefy_ is now known as thief | ||
| === thief is now known as thiefy | ||
| tensorpudding | the former updates the package database, the latter parses the package databse to find any packages which can be upgraded to a new version, and their dependencies, and installs them | 21:53 |
| zaery | jacksteam, click it, see if you get something with a "Documents and settings" folder and a "program files" folder | 21:53 |
| alaing | I alsoready have @midnight shutdown -h now can i add those commands before the shutdown | 21:53 |
| upsla | thiefy:i tried that one too.!!!!!!!!!! | 21:53 |
| hi5 | i will, thanks; it just plays the logout music but no more | 21:53 |
| thiefy | upsla, it really seems difficult to get that to work. i would try a different modem. one that is NOT usb. | 21:53 |
| tensorpudding | you have it set to automatically shut down? | 21:53 |
| zvrk | hi5, or did you try ' reboot' in terminal | 21:53 |
| thiefy | hi5 i changed my mind, you can have lisa. me and rvdavid have discovered something that you should know. | 21:53 |
| upsla | bye allll | 21:54 |
| thiefy | good luck upsla :( | 21:54 |
| IdleOne | thiefy: drop the off topic comments or i will be forced to drop you. | 21:54 |
| JackSTEAM | zarey, i just see bin, boot, cdrom etc | 21:54 |
| hi5 | maybe you can made it a bit clear though..in pvt | 21:54 |
| tensorpudding | you could write a small script and put it in cron.daily | 21:54 |
| upsla | thiefy:thk | 21:54 |
| alaing | tensorpudding: yes as no one will be using the server so i shut it down and my bios boots up the machine again in the morning | 21:54 |
| tensorpudding | automatic updates does mean that you might have kernel updates which cause breakage | 21:54 |
| tensorpudding | though kernel updates causing non-booting systems is rare nowadays methinks | 21:55 |
| rvdavid | ngawww there goes the one girl I'll ever see for a while... *cue wawawa music* | 21:55 |
| alaing | breakage in what sense? | 21:55 |
| tensorpudding | a regression that causes it to not boot on your machine | 21:56 |
| === roaming is now known as INFURNO | ||

| zaery | jacksteam, oops, that's the filesystem you're in right now, is there another filesystem in the left bar? | 21:56 |

| tensorpudding | you could write a script which updates, then shuts down, and put it in /etc/cron.d | 21:58 |
| JackSTEAM | zaery, erm, i'm not sure which is the ntfs partition | 21:59 |
| zaery | jacksteam, you have the hard drive with your windows partition selected on the left bar of disk utility, correct? | 21:59 |
| JackSTEAM | zaery, yes. it says 'unmount' so i'm guessing it is mounted? | 22:00 |
| alaing | ivve never writen a script before | 22:00 |
| zaery | jacksteam, there's a big white(or grey) bar in the middle of the screen, above unmount, right, with multiple parts that each say XXX GB ext4 or XXX gb swap, right? | 22:01 |

| pdignan | hi all, i'm trying to install 10.04.1 on a computer, but the hard drive doesn't show up in the installer. the hard drive *is* detected, because i can repartition it using fdisk and install a filesystem on it using mkfs. any thoughts? | 22:05 |

| NeedsHelpWithBoo | dajhorn I did not export the vdisk but my vdisk is kept on my dropbox which backs it up. I was able to run the VM when I first built this ubuntu server. Then now that I have reinstalled ubuntu server and virtualbox it doesn't seem to like that vdisk anymore I mount the vdisk that is kept on my dropbox directory though. | 22:08 |

| andrewax | why do caps lock led doesn't works on text mode? | 22:09 |
| NeedsHelpWithBoo | dajhorn previously, i was able to boot the vm from either my windows server or my windows 7 machine. Then i moved it to my new ubuntu server it worked until my server overheated then i had to rebuild the server. Now i've rebuilt the server and it doesn't like the vdisk anymore T.T | 22:09 |

| dajhorn | NeedsHelpWithBoo: Look at the vbox configuration file and notice how it uses uuids. Everything must match exactly. Try an export/import. | 22:10 |

| dajhorn | NeedsHelpWithBoo: This is a primary design mistake in Virtual Box: You can't easily move or restore vbox machines because of the way it registers vdisks. You'll probably need to do a web search and find a walkthrough on how to fix this. | 22:11 |

| JackSTEAM | zaery, did all that. it says its launching but the nothing happens. | 22:12 |
| NeedsHelpWithBoo | dajhorn okay thanks, I'll try to do the import/export now, the bad this is because I thought it can be done this way and i had previously got it to work on a few machines i didn't do a export/import so now i'm more or less screwed with my svn source stuck in there. | 22:13 |

| dreewill | Danielc1234: don't think so but i'm not sure | 22:16 |
| Danielc1234 | dreewill: would you happen to know where I have to set the server up to listen for an ip address? I have a public ip that I want to use for this server? | 22:17 |
| JackSTEAM | zaery, i right click steam select TF2 it shows TF is starting then friends list shows as in-game not a second later it shows im not? very confusing | 22:17 |
| dajhorn | NeedsHelpWithBoo: If you don't care about the VM, I'm pretty sure that Virtual Box has an option to mount the vdisk on loopback. You could just copy your assets out of the vdisk using the host operating system. | 22:17 |

| thieven` | illuminaris, this should be helpful to you: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto/ATI | 22:21 |

| illuminaris | apparently it's a 9600 not 9700 | 22:22 |
| Danny78 | everything is going smoothly... could it just be bad data on both parts? | 22:22 |

| dAND3h | Hi guys, I was wondering why, when I run Steam in ubuntu, it closes as soon as it loads up...even though I installed it through wine? | 22:25 |
| thieven` | kinabalu, if you go to system - admin - then to users and groups. if you click on the advanced button with your username selected, in there there is an advanced tab. in there you can set the shell to use. | 22:25 |
| hi5 | illuminaris: that doesnt make sense - 9600 should be supported since 10 years | 22:26 |
| alg0rithm | what's the best way to allow an /etc/init.d/<scriptname> here prompt for a password when starting up | 22:26 |
| Danny78 | thieven: thanks, it's primegrid (boinc) | 22:27 |
| alg0rithm | I want to be able to use the --daemon option | 22:27 |
| illuminaris | hi5 so what should i do? install the driver anyway even though it's not listed? | 22:27 |
| kinabalu | thieven`: yeah, it's changed there. i assume its the same as chsh | 22:27 |
| hi5 | cant you use it only with open one? | 22:27 |
| illuminaris | hi5 i have no idea | 22:28 |
| JackSTEAM | zaery, thankyou ever so much, its working now. any problems i'll be sure to ask :) | 22:28 |
| hi5 | i mean the open driver | 22:28 |

| thieven` | illuminaris, http://wiki.cchtml.com/index.php/Ubuntu_Maverick_Installation_Guide this seems to have the answer. it appears the open source drivers can work. they don't get the full effects, but they seem to be able to work. | 22:30 |
| antlong | illuminaris, fresh air. | 22:31 |
| illuminaris | thieven` i'm checking it now | 22:31 |
| minimec | illuminaris: You may have optimal support with the gallium drivers from the xedgers ppa, but specially the ATI 9600 works pretty well with the norml mesa opengl driver (I have one in an old HP laptop) | 22:31 |
| illuminaris | antlong, lol | 22:31 |

| NeedsHelpWithBoo | antlong: thanks for that i'll follow through and see if i can get the temperatures down. Can you tell me a rough gauge of what the 'normal' temperatures should be? | 22:34 |
| hi5 | illuminaris: maybe full effects arent, but it cant be unsupported out of the box | 22:35 |
| antlong | NeedsHelpWithBoo, probably like 100F-120F | 22:35 |
| illuminaris | hi5 it's not saying my card is unsupported by ubuntu, it's saying that the proprietary drivers are not available, i can only use open source drivers with the 9600 | 22:36 |

| X14U2NVX | Any chance I could get help with my wifi now? | 22:54 |
| NeedsHelpWithBoo | antlong alright i've installed that, looks like i need a reboot | 22:54 |
| antlong | NeedsHelpWithBoo, ok ill bbl if anything | 22:54 |
| NeedsHelpWithBoo | antlong fingers crossed. :D | 22:55 |
| X14U2NVX | hey antlong | 22:55 |
| X14U2NVX | can you help with wifi problem? | 22:55 |
| antlong | X14U2NVX, sure but i gotta go, lets try to make it quick | 22:55 |
| X14U2NVX | kk | 22:55 |
| nuradin | any body use paltalk here? | 22:55 |
| shepperd | Hi, I am going to install Ubuntu Server 10.10 onto my server, so I was watching and reading a few guides. All of them mention a 'swap' space partion, what is this, do I need it, and why?.. | 22:55 |
| X14U2NVX | Every time I enter my WEP encryption (yes I know it is correct) it tries to connect for about 30 seconds then asks again | 22:56 |
| Blue1 | rubbs: getting unknown option let me look at man | 22:56 |
| Planck_ | Hi, I've got an application that uses /dev/random, but I'd like it to read from /dev/urandom instead. I can link /dev/random to /dev/urandom, but that changes for the whole system. Is there a way to redirect it for just that one app? | 22:56 |
| pure_hate | shepperd, Swap is "extra" memory. Years ago it was useful but with any modern computer its pretty useless unless you are really low on ram | 22:56 |
| bepraaa | shepperd: The swap partition is a place to put memory when it's not being used, in case the system runs out. | 22:56 |
| bepraaa | shepperd: If you have tons of memory, you probably don't need one. | 22:57 |
| rubbs | nuradin: what is paltalk? | 22:57 |
| bepraaa | shepperd: But if you have the space one the disk, why not? | 22:57 |
| rubbs | Blue1: did you try using -- instead of just -? | 22:57 |
| nuradin | rubbs it is a video/audi/text chat | 22:57 |
| shepperd | pure_hate, bepraaa, thanks for your answers. :) | 22:57 |
| antlong | X14U2NVX, 64 bit? | 22:57 |
| itaylor57 | swap can be important if you hibernate | 22:57 |
| Planck_ | shepperd: you probably don't absolutely need swap, but it's still useful. | 22:57 |
| X14U2NVX | yes | 22:57 |
| bepraaa | shepperd: np | 22:58 |
| iflema | shepperd if you need to hibernate youll need swap..... | 22:58 |
| shepperd | bepraaa: Planck_: I splurged a bit on the Hard Disk, so I'll probably make a small swap space. | 22:58 |
| rubbs | nuradin: and what are you trying to do with it exactly? | 22:58 |
| bepraaa | iflema: he almost certainly won't be hibernating on a server... | 22:58 |
| shepperd | Thanks all. :D | 22:58 |
| zaery | jacksteam: are the game names greyed out, or white, in your library? and is /host still mounted properly? | 22:58 |
| iflema | bepraaa: goodone | 22:58 |
| bepraaa | shepperd: Good idea. | 22:58 |
| antlong | X14U2NVX do you have network manager installed | 22:58 |
| Blue1 | rubbs: yeah but looking at man doesn't hurt | 22:59 |
| nuradin | rubbs i want to play music in the rooms without taking the mic, | 22:59 |
| X14U2NVX | I do not believe so | 22:59 |
| jackSTEAM | zaery, they were just avaible when i right click the steam icon. now there are none, also on the libary they only have install option | 22:59 |
| X14U2NVX | No wait | 22:59 |
| X14U2NVX | here it is | 22:59 |
| X14U2NVX | yrd | 22:59 |
| X14U2NVX | yes | 22:59 |
| rubbs | Blue1: true ;) | 22:59 |
| antlong | X14U2NVX, if your wep is 64-bit its not supported by ubuntu's gui anymore | 22:59 |
| rubbs | nuradin: is paltalk configured to use pulseaudio? | 22:59 |
| jackSTEAM | zaery, /host is still mounted | 23:00 |
| nuradin | rubbs i want to play music directly from my soundblaster without the mic | 23:00 |
| X14U2NVX | Oh no, I thought you meant 64-bit OS... I have a Hex WEP | 23:00 |
| antlong | X14U2NVX, 10 digit? | 23:00 |
| X14U2NVX | yes | 23:00 |
| nuradin | rubbs pulseaudio causes error in my squeeze box | 23:00 |
| antlong | X14U2NVX, try this in terminal. remove the ` marks. http://d.pr/E9Gj | 23:00 |
| rubbs | nuradin: I guess I'm not understanding. Are you trying to play music on a second soundcard? | 23:01 |
| zaery | jacksteam: and home/.wine/drive_c/Program\ Files/Steam/steamapps still correctly links to the right folder? | 23:01 |
| nuradin | rubbs i have alsa | 23:01 |
| minimec | nuradin: If you have multiple soundcards, you can do this with your onboard pulseaudio server. | 23:01 |
| nuradin | rubbs something like using the line in,but not exactly | 23:01 |
| SilentSpoon | !register | 23:01 |
| ubottu | Information about registering your nickname: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/InternetRelayChat/Registration - Type « /nick <nickname> » to select your nickname. Registration help available by typing /join #freenode | 23:01 |
| antlong | X14U2NVX, good luck i gotta run | 23:02 |
| jackSTEAM | zaery i assume so, its still showing the same folder as before | 23:02 |
| X14U2NVX | kk thanks | 23:02 |
| nuradin | minimec audacity registers 2 sound cards | 23:02 |
| Blue1 | think I got it | 23:02 |
| Blue1 | it's --log-file -- | 23:02 |
| rubbs | nuradin: I'd look into using pulse audio again, but you can use an alsa passthrough command (I can't find it right now) for your squeeze box. Pulse will make it fairly easy for two audio cards | 23:03 |
| rubbs | Blue1: ah... that'd do it. | 23:03 |
| thieusoai | can I use wget to download files with addresses listed in a text file ? e.g., does wget has a flag to read from a file ? | 23:03 |
| nuradin | rubbs maybe u can help me with getting rid of this error in pulseaudio | 23:03 |
| Blue1 | rubbs: yeah it needs log-file works great once you pay the sintax | 23:03 |
| Blue1 | rubbs: also called syntax | 23:04 |
| Planck_ | thieusoai: There's --input-file (or -i) | 23:04 |
| zaery | jacksteam, well, that's a truly interesting problem..... check your steamapps folder and see if the game's stuff is still there | 23:04 |
| nuradin | rubbs pulseaudio says error connection refused and it dies | 23:05 |
| pure_hate | Blue1, Sorry if the syntax was wrong, that was off the top of my head :-) | 23:06 |
| rubbs | nuradin: I'd help more, but I have to leave actually. | 23:06 |
| nuradin | rubbs ok thanks anyways | 23:06 |
| thieusoai | Planck_, thanks | 23:06 |
| nuradin | bye all | 23:06 |
| rubbs | nuradin: try asking a PA question to the room and they may be able to help | 23:06 |
| Blue1 | pure_hate: hey no problem - I got what I needed. thanks for pointing me in the right direction! | 23:06 |
| [bean] | anyone know any good gnome terminal color shemes that look good in transparency? cant see yellow and green too well | 23:06 |
| nuradin | rubbs ok thanks again | 23:06 |
| jackSTEAM | zaery i have 2 steamapps folder. one with an arrow and one without | 23:07 |
| MrUnagi | pure_hate: i got it to work, but the man is confusing, would it be a bother if i asked you if it is possible to limit the '[0-9]\{1,3\}\.[0-9]\{1,3\}\.[0-9]\{1,3\}\.[0-9]\{1,3\}' to find only one instance of each????? '{[0-9]\{1,3\}\.[0-9]\{1,3\}\.[0-9]\{1,3\}\.[0-9]\{1,3\}2\}' didn't work | 23:07 |
| zaery | jacksteam, both in the same folder, or is one in /host and the other in /home? | 23:07 |
| pure_hate | just do a | sort -u > newfile.txt to remove any duplicates | 23:07 |
| pure_hate | MrUnagi, ^^ | 23:08 |
| jackSTEAM | zaery both in the wine C folder | 23:08 |
| jackSTEAM | as i installed steam with wine | 23:08 |
| MrUnagi | k pure_hate | 23:08 |
| pure_hate | grep '^[0-9]\{1,3\}\.[0-9]\{1,3\}\.[0-9]\{1,3\}\.[0-9]\{1,3\}$' file.txt | sort -u > newfile.txt | 23:08 |
| pure_hate | like that | 23:08 |
| pure_hate | or actually | 23:08 |
| Blue1 | pure_hate: couldn't you also use uniq? | 23:08 |
| pure_hate | grep '^[0-9]\{1,3\}\.[0-9]\{1,3\}\.[0-9]\{1,3\}\.[0-9]\{1,3\}$' file.txt | uniq > newfile.txt | 23:08 |
| pure_hate | yeah lol | 23:09 |
| zaery | check inside both, both of them should have a "common" folder inside, and one should have games while the other should have none | 23:09 |
| [bean] | want to pimp out my weechat but transparencies with current gnome terminal color scheme isnt working that good | 23:09 |
| sint | hey, is anyone here maintaining the ubuntu.com wiki? | 23:09 |
| Blue1 | pure_hate: found a great programme the other day called bsdiff -- wonder if we can run that on politicians? | 23:10 |
| area51pilot | :P | 23:10 |
| pure_hate | Blue1, lol! | 23:10 |
| brontoeee | anybody in the mood to test cpu usage with a certain page, pm me (must use ubuntu), its flash | 23:10 |
| sint | i've followed this tutorial, didn't get it finished without problems, looked for help and found that gitosis is no longer maintained and called outdated from git folks. so someone should update the article ... https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Git | 23:10 |
| Blue1 | going to get exciting here tomorrow with obamarama here | 23:10 |
| webPragmatist | when should i use /var/lib vs just /var | 23:12 |
| namnatulco | sint: what does gitosis do, anyway? | 23:12 |
| sint | namnatulco: i have no idea | 23:13 |
| namnatulco | I've used git for like a year now... never heard of it:) | 23:13 |
| sint | namnatulco: i just tried to follow the tutorial to get git installed in a "common" way | 23:13 |
| guest101 | hiya, whats the best way to remote access ubuntu with another ubuntu | 23:14 |
| itaylor57 | namnatulco: use gitolite better than gitosis | 23:14 |
| sint | just starting with git and i thought it is common as it is stated in the tut | 23:14 |
| markturnip | Can anyone recommend a console application to manage which applications/shells start up at boot? | 23:14 |
| Blue1 | markturnip: rcconf | 23:14 |
| sint | namnatulco: how to you run git? just with the git core package? | 23:14 |
| swiggy | whats the best/efficent GameBoy/GameBoy Advance emulator? | 23:15 |
| swiggy | for ubutnu 10.04 | 23:15 |
| markturnip | Blue1:Thanks! | 23:15 |
| guest101 | ubuntu 10.10 | 23:15 |
| namnatulco | yeah, but I also use an external server, ie github | 23:15 |
| [bean] | swiggy vba ? | 23:15 |
| itaylor57 | namnatulco: sint gitosis is a way to control comits and other actions on a central repo | 23:15 |
| swiggy | i did sudo-aptget | 23:15 |
| swiggy | but i cant seem to run it | 23:15 |
| swiggy | after i install? | 23:15 |
| swiggy | cant find it | 23:15 |
| FloodBot1 | swiggy: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation. | 23:15 |
| swiggy | so i uninstalled | 23:15 |
| smw | How do you get the amount of cpu usage of user and system? (something scriptable) | 23:16 |
| swiggy | smw, system monitor? | 23:17 |
| swiggy | system->admininstration->system monitor | 23:17 |
| smw | swiggy, a command line | 23:17 |
| namnatulco | uptime | 23:17 |
| sint | itaylor57: but it seems to be out of date and no longer maintained | 23:17 |
| guest101 | Whats the best way to remote access ubuntu with another ubuntu? | 23:17 |
| smw | namnatulco, does not give user vs system | 23:17 |
| itaylor57 | sint: but gitolite is better and maintained | 23:17 |
| zaery | I know there's an app in ubuntu that shows disk usage as a sort of colored pie chart type thing, what is it? | 23:17 |
| namnatulco | oh, right. | 23:17 |
| sint | itaylor57: seems that way | 23:17 |
| itaylor57 | sint: Ive chatted with the author on the git channel | 23:18 |
| smw | Monsquaz, please do not PM people your question. | 23:18 |
| sint | itaylor57: ok? and? | 23:19 |
| sint | itaylor57: what does he say? | 23:19 |
| brontoeee | zaery, http://risto.kurppa.fi/blog/2008/10/disk-space-analyzers/ | 23:19 |
| smw | Monsquaz, that will get you kicked. | 23:19 |
| guest101 | I used remote desktop viewer but there is major lag | 23:20 |
| hi5 | guest101: i also noticed that | 23:20 |
| ProtiK | I'm currently trying to connect to my windows desktop from my linux netbook. I opened the run prompt in ubuntu and typed in "smb://192.168.2.101" to connect to my desktop. Now it's asking my for a username and password, which i assume means it's asking me for the login info i'm using. however, the menu keeps disappearing and reappearing, which I suppose means I'm doing something wrong, but... | 23:20 |
| ProtiK | ...i'm not sure what. Anyone know what the deal is? | 23:20 |
| hi5 | but i were trying from virtual machine to real pc | 23:21 |
| ProtiK | *username, domain, and password | 23:21 |
| hi5 | fast internet btw | 23:21 |
| zaery | brontoeee, thanks, i was lookin' for baobab :) | 23:22 |
| webPragmatist | where should i put my git repos… /var/lib/git ? | 23:22 |
| philsf | hi, I'm using ubuntu-netbook and unity collects my recently used files, but not recently used applications. Where should I look to find out why? All zeitgeist related packages seem to be installed. | 23:22 |
| smw | namnatulco, iostat does it. I had decided to put it off until later but then I ran into the data I wanted when I started on something else. | 23:22 |
| namnatulco | smw: I was going to suggest top but I couldn't find whether it could actually be run non-interactive | 23:22 |
| guest101 | hi5: I am running Ubuntu off a usb on a windows configured computer | 23:23 |
| hi5 | try vncviewer | 23:23 |
| smw | namnatulco, yeah, I knew top showed it. I am making a script to pull system statistics. iostat was next on my list. | 23:23 |
| [bean] | i know ive said this before but i didnt get any response and its been a while ppl have entered since. anyone know any good gnome terminal color shemes that look good in transparency? cant see yellow and green too well | 23:24 |
| guest101 | How do I do it through ssh | 23:24 |
| ProtiK | does anyone know what login info i'm supposed to use? | 23:24 |
| namnatulco | [bean]: I use black background and yellow text here with some transparancy | 23:24 |
| jackSTEAM | any luck zaery? | 23:25 |
| MrUnagi | pure_hate: cat /var/log/auth.log | grep "password for root" > ~/roothack.txt && cat roothack.txt | grep -o '[0-9]\{1,3\}\.[0-9]\{1,3\}\.[0-9]\{1,3\}\.[0-9]\{1,3\}' | sort -u > banlist.txt && for line in $(cat banlist.txt); do iptables -I INPUT -s "$line" -j DROP; done | 23:25 |
| zaery | jacksteam, check inside both, both of them should have a "common" folder inside, and one should have games while the other should have none | 23:26 |
| guest101 | ProtiK: Just watched a good tutorial on youtube about i second one down if you typre remote ubuntu | 23:26 |

| namnatulco | uhoh. it looks like my netbook froze while doing the partitioning step of the ubuntu install | 23:29 |
| pure_hate | MrUnagi, you could shorten it a little by not using cat | 23:29 |
| guest101 | canon: I want to know how to remote access my ubuntu with another ubuntu, without major lag preferably no lag. | 23:29 |

| brontoeee | minimec, thats like totally cool, even my silly question looks smart in this font | 23:29 |
| MrUnagi | pure_hate: using instead? | 23:30 |
| guest101 | canon: I tried remote desktop viewer, there was a lot of lag | 23:30 |
| jackSTEAM | zaery, one has common one doesn;t | 23:30 |
| ProtiK | TLDR: I need a username and password to connect to my desktop from my netbook. The username/pass combo is neither the one I log into my desktop with, nor is it what I log into my netbook with. What is it? | 23:30 |

| minimec | brontoeee: I tested lots of fonts. That one is my ultimate choice... | 23:31 |
| philsf | !ask | Alexarm | 23:31 |
| ubottu | Alexarm: Please don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line and in the channel, so that others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) | 23:31 |
| [bean] | minimec: not sure. just using terminal colors at the moment. ill check | 23:31 |
| Ace2 | Can someone help me.. I enabled "Extra" in visual effects and now I can't startup. I was able to get to a command prompt, is there a command to reset effects to normal? | 23:32 |

| brontoeee | minimec, a free font? the Purisa Medium ? | 23:33 |
| Alexarm | ok I installed ubuntu 10.04 on my NB200 (Toshiba netbook) the installation seemed to go fine but when I reboot I get a black screen with an underscore on the top left corner but it doesen't go any further... | 23:33 |
| pdignan | earwigs: well, gparted can find it too, but the installer still doesn't show it =/ | 23:33 |
| zaery | jacksteam, does the one with common have the arrow? | 23:33 |
| zaery | jacksteam, if so, delete the one without common | 23:34 |
| minimec | brontoeee: You should have that one too. It's on any standard install I think... | 23:34 |
| hi5 | Alexarm: tryed booting in recovery mode? | 23:34 |
| guest101 | hi5: Is it synaptic, or where can I find team viewer | 23:35 |
| hi5 | try apt-get | 23:35 |
| brontoeee | minimec, true, got it | 23:35 |
| namnatulco | isn't the partitioning phase of the ubuntu install supposed to show me a progress bar? | 23:35 |
| hi5 | yes it is | 23:35 |
| Alexarm | <hi5> i cant go any further it doesent show anything else and no keys seem to work.. | 23:35 |
| namnatulco | then I think I can safely conclude it froze *before* starting operations on my disk? | 23:36 |
| guest101 | hi5: thanks for the help | 23:36 |
| hi5 | from grub menu you need to pick the recovery mode and boot that | 23:36 |
| hi5 | hope it helped guest101 | 23:36 |
| hi5 | namnatulco: difficult to determine | 23:37 |

| jackSTEAM | zaery, did as you said. restarted steam no change? | 23:38 |
| hi5 | X14U2NVX: ask | 23:38 |

| markturnip | My analogue audio output isn't working. I'm using Ubuntu server. Where do I begin trying to debug this? | 23:39 |

| X14U2NVX | ok... I have a wireless card problem, It tries to connect to a wireless network | 23:39 |
| X14U2NVX | it lookes like its working but then stops soon after | 23:39 |
| jef91 | Is there a way to make nautilus always run script files when you double click on them instead of having to select run after doing so? | 23:39 |

| namnatulco | hi5: looks like it died somewhere halfway, but thanks anyway | 23:39 |
| hi5 | nevermind | 23:40 |
| thieven` | Alexarm, | 23:40 |
| thieven` | In single boot systems (when not dual booting with another OS) the boot menu doesn't show up to speed up booting because there is no other OS to select. | 23:40 |
| thieven` | In this case, for 10.04 and Grub2 press (or start hitting Shift) after the BIOS POST finishes, at the start of booting. That will make a grub menu show. | 23:40 |
| zaery | jacksteam: well, that's odd, what happens when you do the set of three commands again? | 23:40 |
| jackSTEAM | zaery we are talking about wines C:\ drive aren't we? | 23:40 |
| MagusOTB | I need to cut out some clips from a long .avi movie. Can anybody reccoment a program to do so? | 23:40 |
| zaery | jacksteam, yup | 23:40 |
| hi5 | X14U2NVX: maybe alsaconfig, or ubuntu system configuration tool | 23:41 |
| jackSTEAM | zaery, can you link the pastebin for the 3 commands again please | 23:41 |
| lapion | neil_d, I had the same problem but only whenever te screensave locked the screen,.. | 23:41 |
| X14U2NVX | hi5: ok i'll try those | 23:41 |
| jackSTEAM | zaery nevermind, i found it | 23:41 |
| hi5 | ok, even try switching to Oss instead of alsa, could work | 23:41 |
| lapion | neil_d, the problem was solved by changing the rights of /etc/passwd | 23:41 |
| Alexarm | :<thieven`> ok let me try it | 23:42 |

| X14U2NVX | hi5: i'm kind of a newb. Could you explain how to switch to oss? | 23:42 |
| neil_d | lapion: what did you cahange it to | 23:42 |
| jackSTEAM | zaery, output: http://paste.ubuntu.com/553011/ | 23:42 |
| philsf | hi, I'm using ubuntu-netbook and unity collects my recently used files, but not recently used applications. Where should I look to find out why? All zeitgeist related packages seem to be installed. | 23:42 |
| Serialk | hello, i'm looking for a command-line software to make a video with a serie of pictures | 23:42 |
| hi5 | i try...from ubuntu sound configuration - is there somewhere - you can select either alsa or oss for your card | 23:43 |
| Thunderirc | anyone here that can help | 23:43 |
| zaery | jacksteam, paste me the output of "ls" | 23:43 |
| Alexarm | ok so i choose linux 2.6.32-27-generic recovery mode or 2.6.32-24-generic recovery mode? | 23:43 |
| jackSTEAM | zaery, its back. i can choose them | 23:43 |
| MagusOTB | Serialk: You could maybe use imagick convert to make them into a gif and then ffmpeg (or mencoder) with a really slow framerate to make them a movie. | 23:43 |
| jackSTEAM | zaery, this is certainty a strange thing | 23:44 |
| lapion | neil_d, should be 644 | 23:44 |
| X14U2NVX | hi5: ummm sound configuration? for wifi? and where is that? | 23:44 |
| Thunderirc | im running ubuntu server , why cant outside users connect to my IRCD | 23:44 |
| redv | use virtual dub for vids: http://virtualdub.sourceforge.net/ | 23:44 |
| lapion | -rw-r----- 1 root shadow 1328 2010-12-29 14:24 /etc/shadow | 23:45 |
| hi5 | somewhere in preferences menu, maybe | 23:45 |
| zaery | jacksteam, it looks like steam decided to ignore the symlink and make another steamapps folder, and apparently, recreating the symlink fixed it, that was quite odd | 23:45 |
| hi5 | search for it | 23:45 |
| aeon-ltd | Thunderirc: firewall? | 23:45 |
| redv | Thunderirc: behind NAT? may need port forwarding | 23:45 |
| namnatulco | hi5: for future reference, if the resizing of a partition is canceled, chkdsk (the one included with windows 7) seems to be able to repair the FS | 23:45 |
| thieven` | Alexarm, just chose the one at the very top. | 23:45 |
| neil_d | lapion: it is 644 or '-rw-r--r--' | 23:45 |
| thieven` | Alexarm, you don't need recovery mode. your comuter is fine. | 23:45 |
| lapion | neil_d, both ar the same | 23:45 |
| Thunderirc | yes its running throughe router and the only ip i have is 192.168.120.xxx | 23:45 |

| dAND3h | Hello, Can somebody please advise me on whether I should install drivers from nvidia website on ubuntu 10.10 or use the drivers provided by the Additional Drivers on startup? | 23:46 |
| hi5 | i know..wifi is somewhere else | 23:46 |
| Alexarm | ah, so i just have to do this every time to boot?? | 23:46 |
| hi5 | so the connection never worked? | 23:46 |
| redv | dAND3h: from the website if you're going to play games | 23:46 |
| redv | dAND3h: otherwise just use the Nvidia x.org drivers | 23:46 |
| neil_d | lapion: yeh... this is a real pain... sometimes it 10 or more goes to get a client to logon... the users done like that | 23:46 |
| thieven` | Alexarm, no. i think your problem is now solved. | 23:46 |
| minimec | dAND3h: Use the drivers provided by the ubutnu distribution. | 23:46 |
| X14U2NVX | hi5: no if i try to connect to ANY network... it just kind of stalls and quits | 23:46 |
| lapion | dAND3h, better to use the drivers supplied by one of the official distro package managers | 23:46 |
| thieven` | Alexarm, try rebooting it and see if it just boots normally now. (without you holding down shift) | 23:47 |
| hi5 | dont know how to help you for that - sry | 23:47 |
| Alexarm | :) ty i'm a complete noob | 23:47 |
| BlackRat90 | Anyone good with python? | 23:47 |
| dAND3h | lapion: so will I be able to play games with those drivers? | 23:47 |
| BlackRat90 | Im trying to create a string that has lots of variables to it with out having to define each variable like in C you could do something like: | 23:47 |
| BlackRat90 | float c[50] | 23:47 |
| X14U2NVX | hi5: ok thanks | 23:47 |
| thieven` | Alexarm, i'm no expert myself.... :) | 23:47 |

| Amnesia | hi | 23:49 |
| Amnesia | how does ubuntu handle the automounting of cdroms? | 23:49 |
| dAND3h | Ok, I have a 1GB nvidia GT230M gfx card in my laptop, will using the official distro driver allow my graphics to be used at the full potential? | 23:49 |
| Amnesia | gnome * | 23:49 |
| namnatulco | X14U2NVX: I only know about a few ralink cards I have myself... but if you happen to be french, maybe this is helpful: http://forum.ubuntu-fr.org/viewtopic.php?id=433425 | 23:50 |
| === kazen is now known as Kazen | ||
| thieven` | dAND3h, i would say yes. | 23:50 |
| sam-_- | dAND3h, i think the video drivers from nvidia for linux are about as good as those for windows | 23:50 |
| Amnesia | does anyone have an idea? | 23:50 |
| X14U2NVX | namnatulco: I don't speak french :( | 23:50 |
| Thunderirc | hey redv does ubuntu server have a built in firewall | 23:50 |
| Thunderirc | ? | 23:50 |
| thieven` | Amnesia, what do you mean? | 23:51 |
| dffd | i typed the first command of http://lifehacker.com/350015/enable-dvd-playback-in-ubuntu-in-two-commands it then said i require a reboot in the top right which i did | 23:51 |
| Amnesia | thieven`: I'm running debian atm | 23:51 |
| dAND3h | sam-_-: Are the drivers from nvidia the same as the default distro drivers from ubuntu? | 23:51 |
| namnatulco | X14U2NVX: well, could you look at the output of dmesg | tail -n10 ? | 23:51 |
| Amnesia | and want to set up automounting when a cdrom has been inserted | 23:51 |
| bastidrazor | Thunderirc: ufw | 23:51 |
| Amnesia | with out the need of triggering mount -a | 23:51 |
| Alexarm | it doesen't boot completely by itself i have to press shift again but at least it boots :P | 23:52 |
| Thunderirc | '??? | 23:52 |
| dffd | so the command sudo apt-get install totem-xine libxine1-ffmpeg libdvdread4 <--- screwed up my desktop. any help appreciated | 23:52 |
| Amnesia | thieven`: it doesnt use autofs right? | 23:52 |
| Amnesia | in ubuntu then* | 23:52 |
| namnatulco | X14U2NVX: I used that info to try and fix my own problems today, which was quite helpful, so it may help you too | 23:52 |
| sam-_- | dAND3h, no you have to install them via additional drivers. | 23:52 |
| starke | hey all do you think it would be possible to burn a netbook image to a microsd card and run it to a pc via my phone? | 23:52 |
| thieven` | Alexarm, hmm, it is a wierd one. i don't have a good answer for you. but this site was useful: ( and i'll look more) http://ubuntu-virginia.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1484694 | 23:52 |
| X14U2NVX | namnatulco: okay i'll take a look thanks | 23:52 |
| Thunderirc | sudo ufw disable?? | 23:52 |
| sam-_- | dAND3h, there is a tool in ubuntu which will do it automatically | 23:52 |
| dAND3h | sam-_-: yes, so if I install drivers using that tool, is that bascially the same drivers as if i got them from the Nvidia website for linux? | 23:53 |
| thieven` | Amnesia, i do not think autofs comes with it. | 23:53 |
| thieven` | Thunderirc, the firewall is not enabled unless you enable it yourself. | 23:54 |
| sam-_- | dAND3h, yes. apart from different versions, maybe | 23:54 |
| Amnesia | thieven`: so how does gnome do it? | 23:54 |
| dAND3h | sam-_-: Ok thanks you very much, have a nice life | 23:54 |
| Thunderirc | it says it was | 23:54 |
| dffd | is it possible i messed up my system's dependencies and have lost my desktop | 23:55 |

| EtherealWinterWi | Hello, does anyone know how to make ubuntu ask for confirmation before moving files/folders to the trash? | 23:58 |
| big_t | if my second hard drive is sdb1 would it be (hd1,a) ? | 23:58 |
| edbian | X14U2NVX: I can help you. What card do you have? | 23:58 |
| terron | I'm trying to remove all traces of an ipv6 tunnel which is conflicting with my router's settings. How would I remove routes such as http://pastebin.com/raw.php?i=6rgYxyvc ? Additionally, simplying doing ifconfig <interface> down didn't seem to actually remove it, just disable it. How would I go about doing that? | 23:58 |
| dffd | can i atleast back up my old files without it telling me i dont have permissions | 23:59 |
| Steve973 | what's the preferred vnc server if I have a headless ubuntu server? | 23:59 |
| thieven` | big_t, your second hard drive is sdb sdb1 is the first parttion on that hard drive. | 23:59 |
