| squishy | rww, not just Ubuntu, it's an apt issue seen across most Debian-based distro's I've tried... | 00:00 |
|---|---|---|
| rww | squishy: It's a default in Ubuntu and Debian. | 00:00 |
| rww | squishy: specifically, in /etc/apt/apt.conf.d/. I know because I remove it when I reinstall. | 00:00 |
| selim | @schnuffle: Nop, id din't wroked, it says that kdelibs isn't installed on my computer. | 00:01 |
| selim | @rww I speak french | 00:01 |
| rww | selim: You could try #ubuntu-fr, then :) | 00:01 |

| edoceo | I'm on a karmic system, just did an update and now when it boots the system doesn't auto-start - shows my kernel but I have to manually select and press enter | 00:03 |
| edoceo | Not so good for remote machines - seems like grub is not counting down - how to fix? | 00:03 |
| selim | schnuffle: Nop | 00:04 |
| coz_ | edoceo, first thing I would do is sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade | 00:05 |
| coz_ | edoceo, then reboot | 00:05 |
| edoceo | coz_: thats what caused this issue in the first place - | 00:05 |
| edoceo | :( | 00:05 |
| coz_ | ooo | 00:05 |
| schnuffle | selim: so you don't have kde installed? | 00:05 |
| coz_ | edoceo, to be honest... I am running 11.04 and that happens on occasion... not sure why | 00:06 |
| coz_ | edoceo, you could check with the people in #grub | 00:06 |
| edoceo | Ubuntu updates frequently break - it's not a grub issue - reasearch points to Ubuntu updating issues - many forum posts | 00:06 |
| edoceo | Found fix, thx | 00:08 |
| tuxtux | ciao | 00:09 |
| selim | schnuffle : I still have kde application, and i can still choose kde when i start my PC | 00:09 |
| schnuffle | what shows a dpkg -l | grep kde? | 00:10 |
| schnuffle | selim: put a sudo in front | 00:10 |

| Curly_Q | Has Xubuntu changed its Apache2 to anything else? | 00:24 |
| Curly_Q | Thanks Rww. | 00:24 |
| rww | Curly_Q: Xubuntu uses the same apache2 packaging as Ubuntu. | 00:24 |
| Curly_Q | It doesn't seem to have the same path though. | 00:24 |
| rww | As Ubuntu? It should do. They're literally the same packages. | 00:25 |

| Hypoglybetic | Can someone help me with Samba Shares? I am having trouble connecting via Win7. However I can connect to win7 shares via ubuntu. I tried adding a user and it failed. | 00:28 |
| rww | Curly_Q: That directory's provided by the apache2.2-common package in X/K/Ubuntu's maverick repository. Probably similar name in other versions. | 00:29 |
| Curly_Q | There should be a default /www path. | 00:29 |
| etzerd | hello all | 00:29 |
| rww | Curly_Q: Debian and Ubuntu use /var/www, not /www | 00:29 |
| Curly_Q | Let me check that one. | 00:29 |
| etzerd | what is the latest version of ubuntu out there? | 00:29 |
| Mors | 10.10 ? | 00:29 |
| VCoolio | etzerd: it | 00:30 |
| rww | etzerd: Ubuntu 10.10 (Maverick) is the latest stable release. Ubuntu 10.04 (Lucid) is the current Long Term Support stable release. Ubuntu Natty is the current unstable development version. | 00:30 |
| VCoolio | etzerd it's YY.MM where month is april (04) or october (10) | 00:30 |
| etzerd | what about the 11.04? becasue I just update my system and when I click on about it says that I'm using ubuntu 11.04 release in April 2011. how can that be? | 00:30 |
| rww | etzerd: That's a known documentation bug. Run "lsb_release -a" in the terminal to see what version you're actually using. | 00:31 |
| Mors | Now if you install 9.10 and update to 10.10 will that reflect so? Cause i dont think mine did lol | 00:32 |
| rww | Mors: If you install 9.10 and upgrade to 10.04 and then 10.10, lsb_release -a will say 10.10 | 00:32 |
| Mors | Could be cause im using an ibook g4 :) | 00:33 |
| rww | It shouldn't matter, unless the PPC repository diverges from our normal ones. | 00:33 |
| rww | (well, more than it needs to, that is. the versioning information stuff is architecture independent, I think) | 00:34 |

| frxstrem | Will the startup disk creation tool in Ubuntu work for other Ubuntu-derived distros too, or only Ubuntu ISOs? | 00:40 |
| joshuacarmack | it says it doesnt need to be installed, just to run it | 00:40 |
| coz_ | Alanis, cool and ubotu is actually a bot :) | 00:40 |
| bastidrazor | Alanis: coz was right though.. you needed to add the applet back to your panel | 00:40 |
| rww | frxstrem: Depends on what changes the derivative's made. Non-derivatives don't tend to work. | 00:40 |
| xangua | run what joshuacarmack ¿ do we have to guess¿ | 00:40 |
| bastidrazor | Alanis: indicator applet is the actual applet that was missing. it is a bit easier to just reset them for some cases | 00:41 |
| joshuacarmack | sorry, im installing Pheonix Viewer for Secondlife | 00:41 |

| maxxist | good even folks. question regarding don't laugh... Trident video in an older toshiba laptop using Lucid. It isnt picking up my video properly and I cant use my full screen. The chipset is capable of 1024x768. I have found a good tutorial on getting it going. however I cannot find the xorg.conf file. it is supposed to be in /etc/X11/xorg.conf I cannot see it there. any ideas?? | 00:46 |
| psusi | Gulfstream, right click on the image file and choose write to disc | 00:46 |
| digitalfiz | maxxist, i beleive unless you make one by hand ubuntu doesnt have an xorg.conf it generates the config at runtime | 00:47 |

| digitalfiz | Gulfstream, it sounds like just a bad disc if you have the ability maybe try it on another system but sometimes that just happens specially if you bought cheap discs(not saying you did of course) | 00:49 |

| q1w | is there a way to see a Linux partition in Windows? | 01:32 |
| kirkmoreno | TROLLS Y U NO FUNNY | 01:32 |
| psycho_oreos | q1w: windows can only really see a handful of its own type of partitions, for everything else its seen under windows as unknown filesystem. You can see it being allocated to linux but windows doesn't know that | 01:32 |
| checkalt666 | anyway, can anybody help me logging in MSN? | 01:32 |
| Nobody | q1w: No | 01:32 |
| Cuberoot | q1w: you can "see" that it exists using diskpart but reading the files would depend on the filesystem in use. | 01:32 |
| rww | q1w: Not really, no. There's http://www.fs-driver.org/ , but it's ext3 only, not ext4. and I don't think it works with ext3 defaults in Ubuntu anyway. | 01:32 |

| checkalt666 | share, i tried pidgin, empathy, emesene and amsn. none of them are working | 01:33 |

| aeon-ltd | checkalt666: to add onto share's coment, its unlikely but a certificate could have been changed so the 'handshake' doesn't authenticate, try updating it | 01:36 |
| checkalt666 | there is something wrong with the connection to msn. | 01:36 |
| qq99 | checkalt666, if you're using empathy you might need to wait a bit, idk why, when I tried it took it like 20mins | 01:36 |

| kirkmoreno | share: i do not have a live account .. so what every you are trying to do.. i did not get it. | 01:37 |
| aeon-ltd | checkalt666: no idea, but nothing should change it but pidgin itself | 01:38 |

| Blue1 | checkalt666: the trick is if you use as an irc client on different networks, you have to have a differnet nick for each network | 01:38 |

| denny | Onionhead: the colours in the %C codes correspond to the colours in the prefs -> colours area | 01:48 |
| nubuntu | bencahill:basically, whats the point of using the whole thing? | 01:48 |
| bencahill | nubuntu: do you have stuff on there already? :-/ | 01:48 |
| psycho_oreos | share: you can but not using gnome network manager, you could manually ifconfig the interfaces and the connection up but having dual or multiple gateways will lose your connectivity with your current one | 01:48 |
| denny | (afaik) :) | 01:48 |

| bencahill | nubuntu: it all depends on what you want to do, here's another question, "what's the point of not using the whole thing?" Both are useless as they do not take into account anything regarding situation, context, or usage. | 01:49 |
| denny | if you press ENTER in the line under the list, then you'll see a demo appear in the black box under that | 01:49 |

| psycho_oreos | checkalt666: you can't if you are running on an older version of ubuntu, the certificate fix should do it however | 01:49 |
| checkalt666 | psycho_oreos, oh dude, so sorry. thought i could express myself clearly in this channel. | 01:50 |
| psycho_oreos | bencahill: thanks :) | 01:50 |

| checkalt666 | psycho_oreos, i'm using 10.10 | 01:50 |
| denny | so there's the list, then a texxt entry box, then a black area, then another list, then the buttons? you need to press ENTER in the text entry box to test your changes (and save them) | 01:50 |
| psycho_oreos | checkalt666: no need to swear however | 01:50 |
| nubuntu | bencahill: well, since it's only temporary, it'd probably be better to just partition it off right? | 01:50 |
| Onionhead | well if i did it right, then my message should look black} | 01:50 |
| bencahill | nubuntu: I don't know anything about the usage, so I can't really answer that :D | 01:51 |
| denny | oh, your demo area might not be black. Mine is because I switched the foreground and background colours | 01:51 |
| Cuberoot | nubuntu: do you plan to keep ubuntu around even when you have your new operating system or do you plan toerase it? | 01:51 |
| psycho_oreos | checkalt666: imo if you are trying to fix that certificate issue, it might be a good idea to try the it first rather than trying to update to the latest one.. I have managed to fix that with my xubuntu 9.04 and had no issues since | 01:51 |
| denny | I always forget that | 01:51 |
| nubuntu | cuberoot:probably erase it | 01:51 |
| nubuntu | bencahill:in what context do you mean "usage"? | 01:52 |
| Cuberoot | nubuntu: well, it doesn't really matter then. :) | 01:52 |
| checkalt666 | psycho_oreos, i read the #pidgin topic and it says that i should update pidgin in order to fix it. | 01:52 |
| bencahill | nubuntu: what things do you do, how big is the drive, what are your purposes for installing the os, etc. | 01:52 |
| rww | Onionhead: #ubuntu has channel mode +c set, which blocks custom color settings in messages. Your text appears in the default color for users' IRC clients. | 01:52 |

| nubuntu | bencahill: mostly entertainment, checking my things. nothing big like programming or anything. drive is 160gb. purpose for installing lubuntu is just to have something untill my classmate lets me borrow his OS disc | 01:54 |
| Cuberoot | I instructed the installer to download and install updates in the background while installing, yet when I boot into ubuntu there are quite a few updates ready. Does the installer only do security updates or similar? | 01:54 |
| nubuntu | cuberoot:really? if i plan to delete anyway then it doesn't matter? | 01:54 |
| bencahill | nubuntu: if you plan to re-partition later, then yes, it doesn't matter | 01:55 |
| nubuntu | cuberoot: also, my friend who is familiar with linux says that when my other OS comes in, it can jus install right over lubuntu. how true is this/ | 01:55 |
| Cuberoot | nubuntu: correct. nothing permanent is done to the drive. | 01:55 |
| Cuberoot | nubuntu: you can always overwrite. | 01:55 |

| bencahill | nubuntu: that is correct, as long as you don't have other data on the drive (in a 'data' partition) that you want to keep | 01:56 |
| nubuntu | cuberoot: thanks. bencahill is saying that if i plan to re-partition, then it doesnt matter. does re-partitioning mean getting rid of lubuntu and installing XP? | 01:57 |
| fcuk112 | hi, got tomboy notes synched using dropbox - what's the best way to access them on iphone? | 01:57 |
| Cuberoot | nubuntu: xp can either wipe the drive and take over the whole thing or it can coexist with ubuntu. again, ubuntu will do nothing you can't undo later, so just pick the default and go with it. | 01:57 |
| nubuntu | cuberoot: thanks for the help man | 01:58 |

| checkalt666 | psycho_oreos, i could log in my other msn tough. i think this problem is happening because my msn ends with @gmail.com instead of @hotmail.com or @live.com | 01:59 |
| checkalt666 | psycho_oreos, yeah. | 01:59 |
| psycho_oreos | checkalt666: weird, that might be the case then. What if you tried accounts with @msn or @hotmail? | 02:00 |
| Onionhead | checkalt666, have you tried emesene or amsn? | 02:01 |
| checkalt666 | psycho_oreos, i can log normally with @hotmail/live, but i cant with @gmail | 02:01 |

| mellin | I'm seeing a lot of disk activity when I'm booted into Vista. I used the maverick installer to install to a second hard drive partition.

| mellin | sam-_-_: Almost impossible. Windows in general has so many services starting, and it could be that one of those services is the cause of the problem in the sense that it may *look* ok when in reality it isn't. As I'm sure you know attempting to kill most of those services will impair the operation of the OS. Therefore the request for tools in linux that can scan the drive for known exploits and issues. I already use unhackme which is fa | 02:07 |

| Snakkah | Hi. Is there a way to remove the gnome panel entirely (not uninstall it)? I mean get it to stop running. I can't delete the last panel. | 02:08 |
| Cuberoot | mellin: microsoft's procmon utility will almost certainly pinpoint your disk activity. | 02:09 |
| sam-_-_ | mellin, have you looked into resource manager? | 02:09 |
| Cuberoot | http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/sysinternals/bb896645 | 02:09 |
| Onionhead | well thank you very much denny | 02:09 |
| mellin | Cuberoot: Thanks! | 02:09 |
| mellin | sam-_-_: Yes I have | 02:09 |
| Cuberoot | but start with process explorer: http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/sysinternals/bb896653 | 02:09 |
| |Bboy| | Question: How can i access mouse movement data in ubuntu? | 02:10 |
| Cuberoot | since procmon can be a bit overwhelming if you don't know what's "normal" or how to easily narrow it down. | 02:10 |
| Onionhead | i think i fix it denny | 02:10 |
| Cuberoot | the combination of the two should be fine. | 02:10 |
| Onionhead | bye everyone | 02:10 |
| sam-_-_ | mellin, is the disc activity all the time or just a few minutes after startup | 02:10 |
| xangua | Snakkah: open 'gconf-editor' and go to desktop/gnome/session/required_component and clear the 'panel' value ; then restart your session | 02:10 |
| mellin | Cuberoot: Will do! Many thanks | 02:10 |
| mellin | sam-_-_: No it happens after it has been booted up quite a while. And it get so bad as to cause the system to stall for several seconds up to a minute | 02:11 |
| Snakkah | Thanks xangua. I'll try that. | 02:11 |
| |Bboy| | Question: Can you access the mouse in ubuntu? | 02:12 |
| sam-_-_ | mellin, because i recently had to disable superfetch. it was causing a lot of disc activity but only for a few minutes after booting up | 02:12 |
| mellin | Thanks you all are the bomb! | 02:12 |
| mellin | sam-_-_: Ok thanks for the help! | 02:13 |
| sam-_-_ | |Bboy|, what do you mean exactly? get the position of the mouse? | 02:13 |

| edbian | ether-boy: A swap partition is never NECESSARY. But with a system like that it will be rarely used | 02:42 |
| edbian | ether-boy: It will be used if you try to hibernate to disk | 02:42 |
| ether-boy | edbian: so does that mean system can't hibernate if there's no swap partition because I haven't made one and there is no Hibernate option as such in the shutdown menu??? | 02:45 |

| Mokura | Alright, so. Xubuntu 10.10, and I'm trying to make PATH variables for python, mplayer, and mencoder, as is required by http://pastebin.com/gU0GgLqH . I added them, one per line, to the environment file in ./etc, like "PATH=python:(path to python)" but after rebooting, Xubuntu does a weird login loop until I use the livecd to change the environment file back to normal. Any idea why it does this? | 02:59 |

| share | as he says | 02:59 |
| ether-boy | ok let me check user agent switcher ( btw...i am on firefox and chromium) | 02:59 |
| Mokura | I followed the examples on the Ubuntu Wiki for adding Environment Variables. | 02:59 |

| share | or do i need to add the path | 03:04 |

| ryan777 | how much disk space should ubuntu 10.10 use? | 03:17 |
| ircubuntu | sam - how do I check the bios settings? | 03:17 |

| sam-_-_ | ircubuntu, you checked lspci already? | 03:17 |
| dotblank | ryan777, depends on what packages are installed.. well the squashfs image is about 700mb so I would say around 1GB without updates | 03:17 |

| ether-boy | Facebook.com is working now with no problems as such. All I did was start using google DNS servers. Hence i conclude the problem is with the local ISPs. Thanks everyone for your help. I appreciate :) | 03:19 |
| ircubuntu | sam - correct. | 03:19 |
| Mokura | ...okay, moving the paths to ./etc/profile doesn't help either. _-_ | 03:19 |
| ircubuntu | sam - and ifconfig shows eth0 and lo but that's all | 03:19 |
| nickhs | ryan777: to find all the partitions you can use gparted, disk utility or fdisk | 03:19 |

| nawk | DaGeek247 could you please tell me how I could access, or where to select the "manual install option" in th live cd? | 03:37 |
| JNZ | Could someone perhaps help me out with pulseaudio not quite enjoying Skype (or perhaps the other way around)? | 03:37 |
| JNZ | Seems for some people it works, others not so much. | 03:37 |
| JNZ | Looks to be an issue only on the latest Ubuntu (LTS that is) and on the previous version it's fine. | 03:38 |
| DaGeek247 | from when its already booted? | 03:38 |
| JNZ | Sound works in the system, just not with this application. | 03:38 |
| dotblank | sensae, make sure the file you pasted your key in has no spaces in or line returns in the middle of your key except where its supposed to be | 03:38 |
| nawk | DaGeek247, my problem right now is that the current version of the Ubuntu LiveCD Installer NO LONGER allows the user to install Ubuntu on an existing ext4 fileystem w/o formating it | 03:38 |

| sam-_-_ | nawk, are you sure? at least the alternate installer will allow this. | 03:39 |
| dotblank | sensae, it allows you to deploy your public ssh keys with an automated gui | 03:39 |
| DaGeek247 | put gparted live on a cd and do the partitioning there. | 03:39 |
| sensae | dotblank: Excuse me, the error is 'missing whitespace', not 'unexpected'. This is a VPS installation over SSH :) | 03:39 |
| dotblank | wasutton3-Laptop, ok you may have to go the route of building alsa from source | 03:39 |
| DaGeek247 | full control. | 03:40 |
| wasutton3-Laptop | dotblank: ouch why? | 03:40 |
| dotblank | wasutton3-Laptop, perhaps the latest source has a fix to a bug causing you grief | 03:40 |
| dotblank | wasutton3-Laptop, also it may be more verbose with errors if you build alsa with debug enabled | 03:41 |
| rww | sensae: I generally use ssh-copy-id instead, since doing it manually is rather error-prone :( | 03:41 |

| nawk | sam-_-_, DaGeek247 the thing is I've spent quite a bit of time aligning the partitions and fs on the correct erase block boundaries on my ssd raid array | 03:41 |
| DaGeek247 | you can split the ext4 there, and install ubuntu on it. | 03:41 |
| nawk | sam-_-_, DaGeek247 that is to say, I've already created the ext4 fs I want to use, but the installer on the livecd is preventing me to use it | 03:41 |
| dotblank | wasutton3-Laptop, maybe you should ask an alsa expert in #alsa | 03:41 |
| dotblank | they are very seasoned all thing ALSA | 03:42 |
| sam-_-_ | nawk, have you tried with the alternate installer? | 03:42 |
| wasutton3-Laptop | dotblank: ok but i thought maverick used pulsaudio | 03:42 |
| dotblank | wasutton3-Laptop, pulseaudio runs on top of alsa | 03:42 |
| wasutton3-Laptop | dotblank: gotcha | 03:42 |
| DaGeek247 | i cant help you beyond semi-basic partitioning. sorry. | 03:42 |
| rww | sensae: however, to actually try to answer your problem as it is... perhaps your text editor line-wrapped the key in authorized-keys? it needs to all be on one line. | 03:42 |
| nawk | sam-_-_, I don't have an optical drive (yea, what a bummer I am ) and the only thing i've got atm is the LiveUSB which I'm using to speak to you nice ppl here | 03:42 |
| dotblank | wasutton3-Laptop, accoriding to the results of aplay -l its alsa not pulse thats broken | 03:42 |
| wasutton3-Laptop | dotblank: alright i will be sure to mention that | 03:43 |
| dotblank | wasutton3-Laptop, also I want to double check to make sure you didn't resume from hibernate or sleep | 03:43 |
| sam-_-_ | nawk, you can boot the alternate installer via usb as well | 03:43 |
| wasutton3-Laptop | dotblank: oh no, its definitely either on or off, its a media serverf | 03:43 |
| nawk | mmm... this is beyond reason | 03:43 |
| nawk | sam-_-_, are you sure there isn't a way for me to proceed to using a desired ext4 fs of my choice using the livecd? | 03:44 |
| nawk | maybe a workaround | 03:44 |
| dotblank | wasutton3-Laptop, one last thing make sure you don't have a currupt alsa configuration file | 03:44 |
| sensae | rrw: I don't believe that's the case, I'm using vim and it doesn't appear to be line wrapped. For thoroughness, I am attempting to re-copy the key with ssh-copy-id | 03:44 |

| wasutton3-Laptop | dotblank: how would i check that? | 03:44 |
| nawk | if I lose this liveUSB, I have nothing to work with | 03:44 |

| needhelp1 | there was supposed to be a meeting some time in January to determine if libreoffice would be replacing open office, any idea? | 03:47 |
| rww | sensae: odd. If nobody else here has any ideas, you might want to try asking in #ubuntu-server | 03:48 |

| oneliner | web dev: how do i know if/which pear i have? | 03:49 |

| jon8 | can someone please tell me the fundamental differences between ubuntu 10.10 desktop and ubuntu 10.10 server -- aside from having a GUI interface to boot to.. | 03:50 |
| rww | jon8: Not much. Same underlying system, server doesn't boot to a GUI, and the server installation CD includes server-related package (apache, sshd, etc.) instead of Desktop ones (GNOME, etc.) | 03:51 |
| w3bcrawler | anyone here have experience with ubuntu netbook remix? | 03:51 |
| psycho_oreos | jon8: ubuntu server lacks xorg once fully installed | 03:51 |
| dotblank | jon8, the kernel on ubuntu server is optimized for server hardware also the server does not have programs useless to a server (ex: gimp) | 03:51 |
| jon8 | well basically.. | 03:51 |
| jon8 | i've got a laptop that i'm looking to run a few eggdrop's on and run a mysql database | 03:52 |
| jon8 | nothing hardcore | 03:52 |
| jon8 | i've got desktop installed.. | 03:52 |
| rww | jon8: I'd stick with desktop. | 03:52 |
| jon8 | and am not having any problems or anything | 03:52 |
| dotblank | well ubuntu-desktop should just be fine.. if its a REALLY old laptop try ubuntu minimal | 03:52 |
| fireboy | My partition wont shrink | 03:52 |
| jon8 | nah.. its a rather new laptop | 03:52 |
| jon8 | rww thats kind of what i'm thinking | 03:52 |
| bazhang | fireboy, booted from the livecd? | 03:52 |
| jon8 | thanks guys ;) | 03:52 |
| dotblank | fireboy, Any more details? what type of filesystem? is this on a livecd? | 03:52 |

| precubcr | but it doesnt start again | 03:55 |
| precubcr | i had to use tty2 | 03:55 |
| precubcr | to login | 03:55 |
| w3bcrawler | i tried google.. keeps coming up with irrelevant tutorials | 03:55 |
| precubcr | instead of tty1 | 03:55 |

| bazhang | precubcr, no need for the enter key so often | 03:55 |
| precubcr | u know anything ? | 03:55 |
| dotblank | precubcr, can you please tell us what your objective is and what you are trying to do in ONE line? | 03:55 |
| precubcr | i am trying to make my kubuntu 10.10 work beacause when i try to log in, a windowd that says System comfiguration, and cant pass it | 03:56 |
| w3bcrawler | i can remove stuff from the panel on the left - but when i bring up any menu and locate some applications, i cant right click on them or drag them over to the panel on the left | 03:56 |
| w3bcrawler | so basically i can remove stuff but i cant add anything lol | 03:57 |
| BlackWeb | w3bcrawler did you try checking the permissions | 03:57 |
| BlackWeb | with ls -al | 03:57 |

| precubcr | kpackage trying to install but subprocess installed post-installation script returned error exit status 1 | 03:58 |
| sensae | rww: I seem to have figured it out. With the public key, does ssh-rsa go on a separate line from the key? | 03:58 |
| dotblank | precubcr, have you tried installing fromt he command line and getting debug information? | 03:58 |
| fireboy | Rawr chkdsk. | 03:58 |
| rww | sensae: it's all one line in mine | 03:58 |
| sensae | rww: For some reason ssh-copy-id copied it as two lines | 03:59 |
| w3bcrawler | permissions on what? the apps? | 03:59 |
| precubcr | dotblank i am new ... i do not know very much can u help me pls ¿ | 03:59 |
| rww | sensae: odd. oh well, glad you figured it out. | 03:59 |
| dotblank | sensae, thats odd? is your local copy of the key malformed? | 03:59 |
| sensae | dotblank: You know what? It is, that's embarassing. I'm not sure how that happened, but I guess I never noticed because I don't use public key on this system, I don't really ssh -to- this system. | 04:00 |
| dotblank | precubcr, I am trying but I don't really understand what the issue really is? you attempt to install the package but errors? | 04:00 |
| precubcr | the thing is that it is not only the kpackage .. it is all kubuntu. When i restarted, i could not get in using tty1 i had to use tty2 :( tty1 has problems i have the pictures here but cant pass them to my pc | 04:00 |
| lhd_ | gh | 04:00 |
| w3bcrawler | got it - thanks guys.. had to open the app and then right click and tell it to 'keep in launcher' | 04:00 |
| dotblank | sensae, :) glad you found out cause that would cause trouble for a while | 04:01 |
| sensae | rww: dotblank: Thanks to both of you | 04:01 |
| sensae | I only noticed by looking very carefully at the sshd debug output, it listed 'authorized public key: "id_rsa" ' 'authorized public key: "<ACTUAL PUBKEY"' on two different lines | 04:02 |

| dxy | i download ubuntu-10.04.1-alternate-amd64.iso is this the one for netbook? | 04:06 |
| BlueBomber7 | dxy: AFAIK you can install any of the images and then get the netbook interface using APT. So while I'm not sure it is or isn't, you can still use it. | 04:06 |
| BlueBomber7 | dxy: Did you follow the Netbook Remix downloading instructions on ubuntu.com? | 04:07 |
| akhyariz | dxy: that's for amd64 processor | 04:07 |
| dotblank | dxy, but no.. thats not for a netbook.. also I don't know of many 64bit netbooks either | 04:07 |

| BlueBomber7 | Anyone here have any RAID/md knowledge and care if I ask a quick question over PM? | 04:09 |

| Viking667 | Since I upgraded to Maverick, my kernel bleats about a invalid EDID on one of the monitors plugged into my two-head radeon card. | 04:32 |
| Viking667 | it's a HD3450, and I would love someone who can tell me how to rehink the monitor's EDID checksum. | 04:33 |
| Viking667 | Weird thing is, if I plug the Philips monitor into the same port, it's fine. | 04:34 |
| Blue1 | Viking667: sorry man I have never used a dual card in my life | 04:35 |

| nsahoo | when I move from one workspace to another of move the window, it refreshes and goes back to normal | 05:42 |

| nsahoo | it was not happening before I added the hard drive. So, I am wondering why. the drive is not even mounted yet. | 05:43 |
| Cpt_Zyph | can anyone tell me were i can find a log that shows me why my netbook is freezing at random?? | 05:43 |

| BlackWeb | guest49081 then you can change the permission if you | 05:44 |
| Cpt_Zyph | psycho_oreos ya i still dont understand how to translate that dmesg... is there a fpaste sorta command or something | 05:44 |
| BlackWeb | hujula, ya that would be a good one | 05:44 |
| Cpt_Zyph | so i can post it online for someone who knows what they are doing or something? | 05:44 |
| psycho_oreos | Cpt_Zyph: there's pastebinit which you can aptitude install | 05:45 |
| Guest49081 | i shall try | 05:45 |
| jds- | akhyariz: what packages? it doesn't list any | 05:45 |
| BlackWeb | guest49081 after you press alt+F2 then type gksudo nautilus | 05:45 |

| Cpt_Zyph | so just type dmesg pastebinit ? | 05:46 |
| hujula | blackweb: the battery meter percentage calculation not working on Marv. any idea? | 05:46 |
| psycho_oreos | Danny78_: yes but I don't know of any guides off hand to make it work, I had use grub4dos and then loaded freeDOS iso image onto flash drive so that it would boot. You might find it a little easier if you could burn freeDOS iso onto maybe a CD or something | 05:47 |
| akhyariz | jds-:, freeciv-server for the server, and freeciv-client-gtk for the client | 05:47 |

| Drahx_ | Hi guys, Mind if I ask a couple noob questions? | 05:47 |
| bluezone | no | 05:47 |
| psycho_oreos | Cpt_Zyph: no you need to download and install pastebinit first.. the command is something like `dmesg| pastebinit -' | 05:47 |

| Drahx_ | I made the switch from windows to Ubuntu a week ago and love it, I want to switch my home server to Linux but want to keep a GUI, what is my best bet? | 05:48 |

| nsahoo | any help on the slow X problem after adding harddrive? | 05:49 |
| psycho_oreos | Cpt_Zyph: doesn't seem to be any issues with that current kernel log output, are you by any chance using wireless? | 05:50 |
| Cpt_Zyph | yes | 05:50 |
| Cpt_Zyph | would wireless cause a lock up of the system???? | 05:50 |
| bluezone | no | 05:51 |
| psycho_oreos | Drahx_: what do you mean keep a GUI? you can install maybe ubuntu-desktop to retain GUI interface after installation | 05:51 |
| psycho_oreos | Cpt_Zyph: using that driver would yes | 05:51 |
| hujula | red2kic: Is there a proxy app on ubuntu like the HotSpotshield? | 05:51 |
| Cpt_Zyph | which driver? | 05:51 |
| Cpt_Zyph | it was the only way to get wifi working.. it was a fix / how to link from the ubuntu site... hummm | 05:51 |
| red2kic | hujula: I don't need a proxy so I never had a chance to monkey with that. Sorry. I know you only have to connect to your proxy -- and set Firefox (or another things) to redirect that. | 05:52 |
| edev | Hi, all. Does sudo -u someuser save the password until the computer restarts? If so, where and how do I change this? | 05:52 |
| Cpt_Zyph | psych_oreos how can you tell what driver im using and that it could cause a conflict with the system?? | 05:52 |
| Shawn | alright....I run 24/7 number crunchers for Einstein@home and recently upgraded my processor to a 2.66Ghz quad that my mobos chipset supports. After having issues for awhile, I saved all of my data and reinstalled Ubuntu 10.04LTS. The freeze usually happens 2-3 hours after I stop being active on the computer. Two issues that might play into it is that I'm running the processor in powersave mode to manage heat @2Ghz and the (and this would be a BOINC issue if | 05:52 |
| psycho_oreos | Cpt_Zyph: you're using wl driver for broadcom bcm4315. wl is the proprietary driver of broadcom which isn't very useful when it comes to debugging its own issues as its mostly closed source. There is an alternative which is to use b43 with the right firmware but its not a guaranteed way to prevent future lockups as the last I read with b43 and bcm4315 as WIP | 05:52 |
| Shawn | mobo's* | 05:53 |
| bluezone | Cpt_Zyph: psycho_oreos is obviously a god | 05:53 |
| red2kic | edev: It'll be efficent for only 15 minutes at most. | 05:53 |
| Cpt_Zyph | i dont disagre with his point im just wondering how he knows as im trying to learn *) | 05:53 |
| hujula | red2kic:yes to redireck to a webpage. That's what need to be done. | 05:54 |
| psycho_oreos | Cpt_Zyph: I can see it from that dmesg :) check line 735 | 05:54 |
| edev | red2kic: All right, thank you. Still, any idea where it's stored, how to disable it, etc.? | 05:54 |
| Cpt_Zyph | ok so ... i need to find a way to get the wifi working on this machine ... or should i just try an older version of ubuntu | 05:54 |
| red2kic | edev: However, if you're concerned -- You can just invoke "sudo -k" after you ran that command. That should invoke the time. | 05:54 |
| kristiina | hi guys. my sd card reader doesn't recognize the sd card (ubuntu 10.10) | 05:54 |
| detrix42 | whats the full path to the java jdk in ubuntu. I thought it was /usr/lib/jvm/java-6-sun but thats not working. | 05:54 |
| Drahx_ | What I mean is, I want to be able to share my drives and printers and set up a PS3 media server, but doing it all through text input is very intimidating to me........ I'm used to winding my way through a user interface for that stuff..... | 05:54 |
| red2kic | edev: invalid* :) | 05:54 |
| edev | red2kic: Thank you! :) | 05:54 |
| Shawn | o.O | 05:55 |
| psycho_oreos | Cpt_Zyph: I'd exhaust all possible avenues first before reverting back to older version of ubuntu as I'm sure reverting to older version will still require you to use wl driver | 05:55 |
| Cpt_Zyph | how did you look through that log so fast??? | 05:55 |
| sam-_- | Shawn, ever ran a memtest? | 05:55 |
| red2kic | edev: No problem. You learn something new. Use "man sudo" for more details. :D | 05:55 |

| moegreen | how do i install a shell script file? | 05:55 |
| Shawn | No, do I just do that from the terminal? | 05:55 |
| moegreen | there is no .sh or ./install file | 05:55 |
| Cpt_Zyph | psycho_oreos i would rather learn how to properly setup and run current version as well.. humm.. i dunno what to do.. any other log files i shoudl eb checking? | 05:55 |
| edev | red2kic: Thank you. I thought I knew a decent amount about Linux, but my friend's been grilling me for a couple hours now and he had me stumped | 05:55 |
| sam-_- | Shawn, also temperatures may get to high even with the powersave setting | 05:55 |
| hujula | red2kic: In order to browsing anomalously. | 05:55 |
| Shawn | There is a significant discrepancy between the frequency of the memory and that of the processor | 05:56 |
| psycho_oreos | Drahx_: hmm there might be PS3 builds of ubuntu floating around, but there's many other issues that you will need to consider, such as the PS3's firmware and what not | 05:56 |
| Shawn | 800Mhz and 1333Mhz, but I thought the processor was adaptive enough to work with 800 | 05:56 |
| sam-_- | Shawn, no you have to reboot. should be an option in grub menu. if not install memtest first | 05:56 |
| psycho_oreos | Cpt_Zyph: there isn't much other logs to be honest :) the other alternative is to try and load modules where possible to give out verbose information. Either that or to use wired only and to see if the problem persist | 05:56 |
| Shawn | and the issue isn't heat, I have sensors applet on constantly and the core temps never rise above 63 degrees C (the max being 71), let alone the heat sensor for the CPU as a whole. | 05:57 |
| Shawn | alright | 05:57 |
| Shawn | I'll try that | 05:57 |
| Drahx_ | I don't mean to install linux on it, I just want to setup my server to be able to share files with my PS3 | 05:57 |
| Shawn | and I'm just looking for a pass/fail? | 05:57 |
| sam-_- | Shawn, y. that's normal processor freq. and mem freq. are unrelated | 05:57 |
| Shawn | oh yeah | 05:58 |
| psycho_oreos | Drahx_: ahh well you can still install normal ubuntu anyway and you'll still retain GUI, and for any sharing stuff you'll just need stuff like ushare with DLNA | 05:58 |
| Cpt_Zyph | psycho_oreos ill do the wired only test as thats the easiest and best to rule out the problem before i start spining in circles.. thanks for your advice.. and help.. i need to learn how to read that dmesg log file better.. its pretty confusing to me.. i have a hard time reading through all the jargan... | 05:58 |
| Shawn | I'm thinking mobo and memory | 05:58 |
| Shawn | sorry | 05:58 |
| sam-_- | Shawn, ok 71 should be fine. high but still fine. | 05:58 |
| Cpt_Zyph | anyone got a good dmesg guide so i can figure out hwo to scan down to the key entries on my log file | 05:58 |
| Shawn | alright | 05:58 |
| Shawn | I'll test and be back soon | 05:58 |
| Shawn | thanks, sam | 05:58 |
| sam-_- | !memtest | Shawn | 05:58 |
| psycho_oreos | Cpt_Zyph: The best way is to try eliminiating one potential source of problem at a time. Rather than assuming its best to try it out. As for reading kernel log, that will come with years of experience :) | 05:59 |
| Cpt_Zyph | psycho_oreos understood.. well i have uninstalled my last windows machine to force me to work through my linux problems.. and as much as i love the help from this channel.. i wish i didnt feel so helpless to these kinda problems .. thank you again ill try to find some pdfs guides on hwo to read dmesg logs | 06:00 |
| Cpt_Zyph | thx again | 06:00 |
| bluezone | this is going to be a nice dejavu, i am going to fix my slow wireless speed by updating kernel and then install nvidia drivers and everything will screw up again :) | 06:00 |
| Drahx_ | ok, can I use LAMP in normal Ubuntu if I need to in the future? (a website is on my to do list) | 06:00 |
| eee500 | test.. testing. | 06:01 |
| psycho_oreos | Cpt_Zyph: lspci -nnk would show what chipsets are on your mobo along with any pci/pcmcia/express/pci cards connected. It would also show any affiliated drivers/modules and any available drivers/modules. Then with wl is matter of checking the info up via modinfo wl :) | 06:01 |
| Drahx_ | Test.. Passed | 06:01 |
| juniour | can any onel tell me abt goog video converter from mp4,mkv to 3gp etc | 06:01 |
| psycho_oreos | Drahx_: yes | 06:01 |
| Cwe_Pgn_Cri_Cwo_ | hem | 06:03 |
| Shawn | I sam still there? | 06:04 |
| psycho_oreos | Drahx_: the only difference is with installing ubuntu server is that you won't get GUI interface (which of course you can install it later on after the normal installation finishes) and some packages along with kernel which can all be customised even with ubuntu desktop edition | 06:05 |
| Shawn | I'd forgotten that since I'm no longer dual-booting on this drive, the grub menu doesn't show when I boot. Is there a key combo that I can use to get grub to show so that I can run memtest? | 06:05 |
| psycho_oreos | !grub2| Shawn | 06:05 |
| ubottu | Shawn: GRUB2 is the default Ubuntu boot manager since 9.10 (Karmic). Lost GRUB after installing Windows? See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestoreGrub - For more information and troubleshooting for GRUB2 please refer to https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Grub2 | 06:05 |
| linux_is_my_hero | rhythmbox is saying my new ipod is read-only when i copy music to it. how do i fix this? | 06:05 |
| red2kic | Shawn: If you're on grub2 -- Hold SHIFT. | 06:06 |
| red2kic | Shawn: During the boot. | 06:06 |
| Shawn | alright | 06:06 |
| Shawn | thanks | 06:06 |
| mrroth | do I need to create the partion first then the raid 1 mirror (software raid) or just run this mdadm --create /dev/md0 --level=mirror --raid-devices=2 /dev/sdc1 /dev/sdb1 < then do mkfs.ext3 /dev/md0 | 06:06 |
| psycho_oreos | linux_is_my_hero: hmm I'd try to check and to make sure that your ipod isn't using hfs/hfs+, that its supported by rhythmbox and that you might need gksu to write stuff to it | 06:07 |
| Drahx_ | psycho_oreos: Thanks for all of your help, I feel like such a noob no that's I've stepped away from windows.... lol | 06:07 |
| psycho_oreos | Drahx_: we all had to start from somewhere :) | 06:07 |
| linux_is_my_hero | psycho_oreos: how do i check the file system? | 06:07 |
| psycho_oreos | linux_is_my_hero: via `mount' command under gnome-terminal | 06:08 |
| linux_is_my_hero | psycho_oreos: it can play this one song that's on there as a demo, just not write anything to it. | 06:08 |
| linux_is_my_hero | psycho_oreos: 'mount' what? | 06:08 |
| juniour | any good video convertor | 06:08 |

| Samuel | Hello, Everytime I reboot my computer networking seems to be offline I have to enable it by doing /sbin/ifup -a it just started recently and I dont know why | 06:09 |
| bluezone | does anyone recall how to configure grub in order to make my secondary windows os appear in the menu, i picked ubuntu to be automatically booted accidentally | 06:09 |
| juniour | ? | 06:09 |
| psycho_oreos | linux_is_my_hero: yes because ubuntu may have mounted it as read only or that because it requires root for safety to permit writing to raw device | 06:09 |
| psycho_oreos | Samuel: seems like ifupdown scripts are being more honoured than networkmanager | 06:10 |
| Samuel | How would I go about fixing this? | 06:10 |
| linux_is_my_hero | psycho_oreos: what's the syntax for 'mount" with ipods? | 06:10 |
| rasa | how do I run failsafeX from the command line? | 06:10 |
| psycho_oreos | linux_is_my_hero: its `mount' only to show the list of mounted block devices to their respective directories under the rootfs | 06:10 |
| kristiina | can anyone help, please? sdhc card reader not working | 06:10 |
| psycho_oreos | linux_is_my_hero: you don't need to manually mount the ipod, I believe the ipod is already mounted, you just need to type `mount' command to see where its connected to but moreso is to check the filesystem its mounted as | 06:11 |
| juniour | hey i have installed a software from ubuntu software center but i cand find that can any one here tell me where this is installed | 06:11 |
| bluezone | !kernel | 06:11 |
| ubottu | The core of the Ubuntu Operating System is the Linux kernel: see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Kernel - You shouldn't have to compile your own, but if you're convinced you do, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Kernel/Compile - See also: /msg ubottu stages | 06:11 |
| linux_is_my_hero | psycho_oreos: how do i format my ipod so its like brand-new? | 06:11 |
| Shawn | I don't know if this relates to my problem or not, but it's certainly an anomaly - I held down the shift key during boot and grub didn't show. My install is ubuntu 10.04LTS. | 06:11 |
| linux_is_my_hero | psycho_oreos: i don't have a mac, but i have a windows box and a ubuntu box. | 06:11 |
| psycho_oreos | linux_is_my_hero: that information should be available inside the owners manual of the device :) | 06:11 |
| juniour | hey i have installed a software from ubuntu software center but i cand find that can any one here tell me where this is installed | 06:11 |
| psycho_oreos | linux_is_my_hero: you don't need windows or mac, I have done copying to and stuff from my old ipod video using xubuntu | 06:12 |
| Shawn | junior, have you checked your menus? | 06:12 |
| linux_is_my_hero | okay i dont know what to look for when i type in 'mount' so can you check a pastebin to help me out? | 06:13 |
| bullgard4 | juniour: In a terminal: 'sudo updatedb', 'locate <name of your software>'. | 06:13 |
| psycho_oreos | linux_is_my_hero: you'll need to pastebin the contents of mount out and paste me the link so that I can look | 06:13 |
| linux_is_my_hero | psycho_oreos: http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/KNPVzS2s | 06:14 |
| Samuel | psycho_oreos: I am unsure how to fix the problem with the networking, I have been googling for days would you be able to point me to some documentation on this? Or is it possible to have the "/sbin/ifup -a" forced upon startup? | 06:14 |
| Lanlost | ... Why does it seem impossible to get sound to record in Ubuntu or linux in general? | 06:15 |
| AbhiJit_ | how to know ip address of website? | 06:15 |
| Lanlost | I don't want to record from a mic.. I want to record my output | 06:15 |
| === AbhiJit is now known as Guest96454 | ||
| === AbhiJit_ is now known as AbhiJit | ||
| Lanlost | the sound output.. as in... recording anything my computer outputs through the speakers. I've been using linux for like 5 years now and have NEVER seen it work.. for anyone.. and I'm using Ubuntu Studio | 06:15 |
| AbhiJit | help | 06:15 |
| AbhiJit | how to find ip address of website? | 06:15 |
| sacarlson | AbhiJit: ping website | 06:15 |
| Lanlost | I'm starting to believe it's not possible.. | 06:15 |
| psycho_oreos | linux_is_my_hero: it seems like its mounted as hfsplus, check the last line of that mount output. The last I heard was hfsplus support under linux is somewhat flaky so I suggest you to refer to your owners manual on how to format your ipod to windows format which should then appear as fat32 | 06:15 |
| Lanlost | AbhiJit, terminal/console -> ping www.google.com | 06:15 |
| AbhiJit | Lanlost, sacarlson thank you | 06:16 |
| Lanlost | PING www.l.google.com (72.14.204.104) 56(84) bytes of data. | 06:16 |
| rasa | how do I start X in failsafe mode from the command line (google is no help) | 06:16 |
| psycho_oreos | Samuel: you could do an ugly hack of adding that line into /etc/rc.conf which should be executed upon every boot/reboot. | 06:16 |
| red2kic | rasa: "startx" -- I guess | 06:16 |
| psycho_oreos | AbhiJit: host <website> | 06:16 |
| red2kic | rasa: Meh. Ubuntu is... "sudo service gdm start" <-- | 06:17 |
| AbhiJit | psycho_oreos, yahh thanks | 06:17 |
| juniour | bullgard4 i dident get u | 06:17 |
| psycho_oreos | ping actually pings the host unless you specify not to, host just resolves the names to IP via dns registars | 06:17 |
| linux_is_my_hero | anyone know how to format an ipod? | 06:17 |
| AbhiJit | !ipod | linux_is_my_hero | 06:17 |
| ubottu | linux_is_my_hero: For information on how to sync and add tracks to your iPod, see the guide at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/IPodHowto - For the iPhone and the iPod Touch, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/PortableDevices/iPhone - See !RockBox for information on liberating your iPod | 06:17 |
| psycho_oreos | linux_is_my_hero: you don't have owners manual for that ipod? | 06:17 |
| bullgard4 | juniour: What did you not get? | 06:17 |
| linux_is_my_hero | psycho_oreos: i didin't get a manual. its a 7th gen 160gb which looks like they had it for about 10 minutes then lost their minds and sold it to me. | 06:17 |
| Lanlost | linux_is_my_hero, in what sense? | 06:18 |
| linux_is_my_hero | psycho_oreos: its a refurb because the original hdd failed. | 06:18 |
| Lanlost | If it's a supported version, do what I did.. best thing I ever did with any mp3 player | 06:18 |
| ubuntuz | hi | 06:18 |
| Lanlost | install rockbox.. | 06:18 |
| linux_is_my_hero | Lanlost: its in HFS+ format and i need it in FAT32 | 06:18 |
| qq99 | any reason copy in terminal is ctrl+shift+c? can I change that to ctrl+c? | 06:18 |
| Lanlost | you can just format it like a regular drive.. install rockbox with the installer | 06:18 |
| juniour | bullgard4 i have installed as oftware fron ubuntu software centert but i cant that | 06:18 |
| qq99 | oh nvm lol, stupid question | 06:18 |
| psycho_oreos | linux_is_my_hero: hmm well a copy of the manual can also be obtained from apple's website | 06:18 |
| juniour | find | 06:18 |
| Lanlost | linux_is_my_hero, you can just format it like a normal drive, just specify fat32 | 06:18 |
| juniour | that | 06:19 |
| Lanlost | I used gparted | 06:19 |
| bluezone | does anyone recall how to configure grub in order to make my secondary windows os appear in the menu, i picked ubuntu to be automatically booted accidentally | 06:19 |
| linux_is_my_hero | psycho_oreos: good idea :-) | 06:19 |
| OtterNZ | How do I go about removing the title bar on selected applications? I can only find how to do this for every window, not just certain ones (the bar that says the name of the programme, and has the minimise/maximise/close buttons) | 06:19 |
| linux_is_my_hero | lanlost: i thought rockbox only works up to ipod 5.5? | 06:19 |
| bullgard4 | juniour: What is the name of the software which you have installed via Ubuntu Software Center? | 06:19 |
| psycho_oreos | linux_is_my_hero: iirc I'm very sure ipod allows you to format itself without needing to connect up to a computer to format the hard drive into windows format | 06:19 |
| Samuel | thank you psycho_oreos I will try that and hopefully it will work | 06:19 |
| psycho_oreos | it should be buried inside the menus | 06:19 |
| guest | hi | 06:20 |
| rasa | is there a key combination that causes the current X session to exit back to the command line? | 06:20 |
| psycho_oreos | Samuel: ideally you should look into long term solution to get networkmanager to work, there should be reasons why as to networkmanager to be manually operating if ifupdown is being honoured in favour.. should be some conf files iirc | 06:20 |
| psycho_oreos | rasa: init 1 | 06:20 |
| qq99 | what's the best way to test my mouse for which click = which ButtonX? | 06:21 |
| guest | rasa, try ctrl + alt + backspace | 06:21 |
| qq99 | I've got a logitech g500 | 06:21 |
| psycho_oreos | qq99: maybe xev | 06:21 |
| Danny78_ | psycho_oreos: ASUS actually offers it's software for linux | 06:21 |
| qq99 | psycho_oreos, I'll check that | 06:21 |
| qq99 | where's the place where I'd change lock to meta+L vs. ctrl+alt+L? | 06:21 |
| psycho_oreos | Danny78_: I meant in terms of BIOS flashing, I know Gigabyte didn't they only had DOS flasher tools | 06:21 |
| juniour | bullgard i think that was video convertor | 06:21 |
| psycho_oreos | qq99: I think its the same place | 06:22 |
| ubuntuz | I've an HDD with raid 0 and Ubuntu 10.10 fresh install, I'm trying to install burg on MBR: /usr/sbin/burg-probe: error: cannot find a GRUB drive for /dev/mapper/isw_cahajbcdji_ARRAY05. Check your device.map. In /etc/fstab only I've /dev/mapper/isw_cahajbcdji_ARRAY05/ so when I try burg-install /dev/sde fails. What should I do? | 06:22 |
| psycho_oreos | qq99: err wait my bad no, key bindings inside gnome somewhere | 06:22 |
| Drahx_ | Hmm, I keep getting a black screen after the initial loading screen when booting from Thumb drive to install Ubuntu Desktop version | 06:22 |
| rasa | guest: nada | 06:22 |
| rasa | getting ubuntu to work on a w701ds totally sucks | 06:23 |
| guest | rasa, didn't it work ? | 06:23 |
| rasa | fedora and windows run fine, ubuntu sucks ass | 06:23 |
| psycho_oreos | Drahx_: that could be ACPI issue, you might want to try appending noacpi into boot line | 06:23 |
| rasa | no | 06:23 |
| Drahx_ | how can I do that? | 06:23 |
| fermulator | ubuntuz: http://ubuntuforums.org/showpost.php?p=8643812&postcount=40 | 06:24 |
| rasa | i've spent *all day* on this, what a total waste of time | 06:24 |
| fermulator | ubuntuz: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MasterBootLoader | 06:24 |
| ison | good day | 06:24 |
| Samuel | psycho_oreos: Well I just attempted it and it did not fix the issue I still have to login and issue the command manually I added it to /etc/init/rc.conf so I guess I do have to search for another solution :) | 06:24 |
| fermulator | ubuntuz: basically, you need to tell grub about the "fake raid" device | 06:24 |
| psycho_oreos | Drahx_: when you boot into USB, normally you get that splash screen with all the boot options right? you just hit install but before hitting enter you hit tab or something to edit the line and you hit End key.. then you type in noacpi and then hit enter | 06:24 |
| bluezone | where can i get my hands on the latest kernel | 06:24 |
| Danny78_ | psycho_oreos: I'm confused. Do I still boot the ubuntu computer from a flash drive with freedos to upgrade the bios? | 06:24 |
| fermulator | ubuntuz: specifically, this line is of interest to you: "grub> device (hd0) /dev/mapper/isw_beeaakeeaa_five" | 06:25 |
| Drahx_ | I I'm not even getting to the splash screen | 06:25 |
| psycho_oreos | Samuel: the /etc/rc.conf file is not honoured, maybe execute permissions or its not set | 06:25 |
| Lanlost | so.. | 06:25 |
| juniour | bullgard4 can u suggest me any good video convertor | 06:25 |
| Lanlost | has no one here ever recorded their output before? | 06:25 |
| bullgard4 | juniour: "video converter" is no Ubuntu name of a software downloadable. "video converter" is a generic name. What is the special name of the software (package) which you have downloaded using the Ubuntu Software Center? | 06:25 |
| ubuntuz | thx, let me see | 06:25 |
| Drahx_ | I have no issue on the server version though | 06:25 |
| Lanlost | I'm talking as simple as.. playing a video on youtube and recording the audio.. you know.. analog hole | 06:25 |
| Danny78_ | psycho_oreos: the flash utility is an .exe, so I'm assuming the answer is yes | 06:26 |
| noroot | does ne1 know anything about putting ubuntu on an ipod touch? | 06:26 |
| Drahx_ | What are the chances that the "Startup disk creator" messed up? | 06:26 |
| bullgard4 | juniour: What do you want to convert in your video? | 06:26 |
| juniour | bullgurrd4 i cant rember name | 06:26 |
| juniour | ya | 06:26 |
| qq99 | gwah, in xev each of my buttons are different things... rarely are they actually button events | 06:26 |

| iDope | I installed sensors-applet via apt but am still not seeing in the add to panel list (Hardware Sensors is not listed). How do I get the sensors applet working? | 06:26 |
| rasa | in recovery mode, the failsafe option fails to run X, but simple returns to the menu, not very failsafe is it!!!!! | 06:26 |
| juniour | it sound like men coder or decoder | 06:26 |
| juniour | i think so | 06:26 |
| psycho_oreos | Danny78_: no, you need to find out how does the flasher works, if the flasher is windows only tool (which means that it has GUI) you cannot use freeDOS. If the flasher tool is DOS based you can use FreeDOS to flash the BIOS which can be done either by burning a copy of freeDOS onto CD or using USB in addition with grub4dos. Otherwise if they have linux flasher tool, then I use that by all means | 06:27 |
| juniour | but i am in confusion | 06:27 |
| bluezone | where can i get my hands on the latest kernel? | 06:27 |
| psycho_oreos | linux_is_my_hero: secret :) | 06:27 |
| ubuntuz | um, # sudo fdisk -l --> can not look in /dev/sde | 06:27 |
| bullgard4 | juniour: Ok, you cannot remember the name of the converter. But in this case it is difficult to help you. | 06:27 |
| juniour | bullgurd suggest me any good convertor | 06:27 |
| sam-_- | psycho_oreos, have you ever seen a linux flasher tool? which manufacturer? | 06:27 |
| noroot | is there an ipod room on irc | 06:28 |
| psycho_oreos | bluezone: usually from ubuntu repositories. Otherwise you can get them from kernel.org but I would advise against that unless you know what you are doing and you are prepared to clean up any mess | 06:28 |
| OtterNZ | How do I go about removing the title bar on selected applications? I can only find how to do this for every window, not just certain ones (the bar that says the name of the programme, and has the minimise/maximise/close buttons) | 06:28 |
| iDope | I installed sensors-applet via apt but am still not seeing in the add to panel list (Hardware Sensors is not listed). How do I get the sensors applet working? | 06:28 |
| psycho_oreos | sam-_-: haven't seen any but according to Danny78_ he said ASUS provides linux tools. I do not know offhand if he refers to a flasher tool or some other thing like drivers for linux | 06:28 |
| fermulator | ubuntuz: uhh ... that's weird. it actually says "can not look in" ? | 06:28 |
| bullgard4 | juniour: I am no expert. From the name, use "ubuntustudio-video". | 06:29 |

| bluezone | ill bookmark it this time | 06:32 |
| bluezone | :) | 06:32 |
| psycho_oreos | linux_is_my_hero: you sure apple's ipod manual from apple's website does not detail how to format ipod? I'd try googling for answers | 06:32 |
| iDope | sam-_-: I shouldn't really need to do that but I guess you are right maybe gnome will update the list when i log in again | 06:32 |

| === vivaldi is now known as digitalboy | ||
| bazhang | jon8, maverick | 06:38 |
| bazhang | jon8, it may well work though | 06:39 |
| edev | jon8: I believe lucid - they're alphabetical, I believe. | 06:39 |
| bazhang | roscoe, there is a gui one, let me check | 06:39 |
| === OOzemeister is now known as jmad | ||
| rturner | jon8, the names are in alphabetical order from lest to most recent | 06:39 |
| Lanlost | wtf | 06:39 |
| jon8 | bazhang i know that maverick is the latest, i'm wondering out of those 6 i listed, what is the latest. | 06:39 |
| jon8 | rturner and edev ok, thank you | 06:39 |
| mrroth | do I need to create the partion first then the raid 1 mirror (software raid) or just run this mdadm --create /dev/md0 --level=mirror --raid-devices=2 /dev/sdc1 /dev/sdb1 < then do mkfs.ext3 /dev/md0 | 06:40 |
| mrroth | I did fdisk /dev/sdb | 06:40 |
| Lanlost | so I have it in the Sound Preferences thing.. watching the "Input" meter right? playing sound.. changing settings in alsamixer and in there, etc until I see something happen | 06:40 |
| jon8 | so lucid is 10.04? | 06:40 |
| Lanlost | I finally got it.. sort of | 06:40 |
| jon8 | is this correct? | 06:40 |
| AbhiJit | among .qtl .ram .pls and .asx which is most compatible with linux? | 06:40 |
| sam-_- | jon8, correct | 06:40 |
| Lanlost | Analog Mono Duplex as the hardware profile.. then it finally shows a volume level for input | 06:40 |
| bazhang | AbhiJit, most all can be played | 06:40 |
| Lanlost | The problem is... it's... analog input and output | 06:40 |
| jon8 | sam-_- thank you :) | 06:40 |
| AbhiJit | bazhang, okay | 06:40 |
| Lanlost | and not only that but alsamixer.. to make the input volume go up and down is changing PCM.. which is fine.. but it's not what I figured it would be | 06:40 |
| Lanlost | I need to record in stereo though.. sigh | 06:41 |
| Lanlost | I always tell people that sound in linux is broken and they just look at me like I'm crazy | 06:41 |
| Lanlost | sure.. if you just wanna play normal sound the way it's set up then it's fine.. I guess | 06:41 |
| === neiz__ is now known as Neiz | ||

| macman_ | hi all question .. my dvd drive was working before and it just stopped | 06:41 |
| Lanlost | bazhang, the internet | 06:42 |
| Lanlost | =P | 06:42 |

| ravibn | my webcam (frontech e-cam JIL2214) is not working after installing 10.10 anyone pl help It worked fine in 10.04 | 06:42 |
| Lanlost | I'm just hoping someone has recorded audio in linux before.. | 06:42 |
| macman_ | mount: special device /dev/scd0 does not exist | 06:42 |
| bazhang | Lanlost, please dont break it up as it is very hard to read that way | 06:42 |
| macman_ | any ideas ? | 06:42 |
| Lanlost | bazhang, sorry. That's a bad habit of mine | 06:42 |
| PalinT | I need to install the graphical environment of Ubuntu 10.10 | 06:42 |
| OtterNZ | How do I go about removing the title bar on selected applications? I can only find how to do this for every window, not just certain ones (the bar that says the name of the programme, and has the minimise/maximise/close buttons) | 06:42 |
| Lanlost | It's fine in a channel where there are like 5 people and only 2 are talking but horrible when it's full of people like this | 06:42 |
| one_ | i not work mmio help me pls | 06:42 |
| jon8 | Anyone in here use BIJK (www.bijk.com) server monitoring on Ubuntu 10.10? They only have instructions that support up to 10.04. | 06:42 |
| bazhang | PalinT, ubuntu-desktop package | 06:42 |
| edev | OtterNZ: I'm not sure that's actually possible | 06:42 |
| bazhang | one_, what is mmio | 06:43 |
| PalinT | treatment and does not work I install it in terminal mode | 06:43 |
| BlueBomber7 | OtterNZ: So you want conditional window decoration? | 06:43 |
| bazhang | PalinT, what treatment | 06:43 |
| Bluefever | hey, weird question, but could I put an extra Hard Drive into the default case for my computer. I have an extra media slot, but I don't know exactly how it works. My computer is an HP m7060n. | 06:43 |
| OtterNZ | edev: damn - was wanting it gone from my web browser, but leaving it on other windows. BlueBomber7: If I we have the same definition of that, it sounds about right | 06:44 |
| wagle | hi.. how do you change the dhcp hostname an ubuntu client asks for from the command line? | 06:44 |
| Adog | hey guys i need a way to access a drive i have slaved in my ubuntu machine from my windows machine in a home network, i heard i have to use samba, so i have it installed, but i have no idea how to configure it | 06:44 |
| one_ | mmio ??? logon screen have message mmio | 06:44 |
| bazhang | Bluefever, probably, but better ask in ##hardware | 06:44 |
| bazhang | one_, what is mmio | 06:44 |
| Bluefever | Thanks | 06:44 |
| edev | OtterNZ: What about fullscreen? Not a perfect fix, but maybe for your needs? And I am NOT an expert on the subject.... | 06:44 |
| mrroth | I need help how to do software radi 1 in ubuntu server | 06:44 |
| wagle | /etc/hostname isnt it | 06:44 |
| mrroth | on partions | 06:44 |
| mrroth | hwo do I create them | 06:44 |
| BlueBomber7 | OtterNZ: Have you looked in CompizConfig? I see conditional decoration based on window title, class, ID, name, roll, and type | 06:44 |
| Danny78_ | Which option should I set in BIOS to boot fro USB-- usb-fdd, usb-hdd, usb-zip? | 06:45 |
| AbhiJit | bazhang, actually there are four options on radio web site. so i wanted to select that player which is most linux friendly. | 06:45 |
| linux_is_my_hero | psycho_oreos: not even windows can format this thing. what is going on? | 06:45 |
| bazhang | AbhiJit, pls then | 06:45 |
| BlueBomber7 | OtterNZ: Do you know what window decorator you use now? | 06:45 |
| AbhiJit | bazhang, ok. thank you | 06:45 |
| mister_m | can I view what process is running on a certain port and kill it? | 06:45 |
| Bluefever | @bazhang it says I need to be invited to the channel to join. | 06:45 |
| bazhang | linux_is_my_hero, do it through iTunes (only way outside of rockbox) | 06:45 |
| sam-_- | Danny78_, usb-hdd | 06:45 |
| bazhang | Bluefever, you need to register then, check #freenode for help with that | 06:46 |
| PalinT | ubuntu was apparently not compatible with my graphics card a GT 240 1 gb for that fridge when you start the installation I had to install a non-graphic but I need to know how to install and echo in many ways and all that installs the surroundings, and installed inside Windows 7 | 06:46 |
| sam-_- | mister_m, mister_m you mean network port? | 06:46 |
| Danny78_ | sam: Do I need to press a button? it boots from the internal hard drive | 06:46 |
| one_ | i have problem with rtl8187 g/b | 06:46 |
| bazhang | PalinT, fridge? | 06:46 |
| bazhang | one_, thats ethernet or wireless | 06:46 |
| akerl | ok, so I'm running ubuntu 10.10 server, trying to setup ssh-agent for my ssh keys. what do i need to do? havent been able to find a guide that works | 06:47 |
| PalinT | my English is not good | 06:47 |
| jwfoxjr | does anyone have a good link for installing gnome3 in maverick? | 06:47 |
| sam-_- | Danny78_, hmm dunno | 06:47 |
| bazhang | one_, lspci in terminal ----> paste.ubuntu.com | 06:47 |
| PalinT | private chat pls | 06:47 |
| mister_m | sam-_-, yes | 06:47 |
| bazhang | PalinT, keep it here | 06:47 |
| one_ | what | 06:47 |
| OtterNZ | edev: That's useful, but I still want the other things it hides. BlueBomber7: I'll look into compizconfig now, it's not in my menus (maybe because this is a KDE system with gnome installed afterwards). Also using metacity I think | 06:47 |
| roscoe | Using ubuntu 10.04, is 512 mb of ram enough to play average offline 3d games with over 10 fps? i know its not alot of ram, but im asking cause i need to figure out if its the ram or the video card on this old computer thats making the games run at around 4 fps | 06:48 |
| sam-_- | mister_m, sudo netstat -tulpen | 06:48 |
| one_ | lspci in terminal ----> paste.ubuntu.com ? | 06:48 |
| bazhang | one_, open a terminal; type lspci , open a browser to paste.ubuntu.com then paste the output there and give us the url | 06:48 |
| PalinT | the GUI is not installed and tried with many command, will not I have to install a repository? | 06:48 |
| PalinT | ??? | 06:48 |
| bazhang | PalinT, paste.ubuntu.com the errors from sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop | 06:49 |
| BlueBomber7 | OtterNZ: If you didn't change the default decorator for GNOME, then, yeah, I'd say probably metacity. I don't know how to configure that directly. I usually use Compiz(Fusion) as my window manager, and use Emerald as my decorator. | 06:49 |
| sam-_- | roscoe, i would guess videocard. is there a lot of harddisk activity when playing? | 06:49 |
| one_ | i not browser internet error with modem | 06:49 |
| === bombshell is now known as bombshell[a] | ||
| bazhang | one_, you are on the internet now | 06:49 |
| BlueBomber7 | OtterNZ: And those you can configure using compizconfig | 06:49 |
| roscoe | what do you mean exactly by harddisk activity? | 06:49 |
| roscoe | sam-_- what do you mean exactly by harddisk activity? | 06:50 |
| Danny78_ | grub4dos looks a little too complicated for me | 06:50 |
| sam-_- | roscoe, if it's constantly accessing the harddisk. (using the swap) | 06:50 |
| bazhang | Danny78_, why would you use it, use grub2 | 06:50 |
| OtterNZ | BlueBomber7: installing compizconf now, wasn't included in the gnome desktop environment when installed | 06:50 |
| Danny78_ | bazhang: I need to flash my mobo bios | 06:51 |
| PalinT | I can not get the report because he blocked me | 06:51 |
| one_ | browser internet disconnect with modem | 06:51 |
| linux_is_my_hero | does anyone know how to un-write protect an ipod? | 06:51 |
| bazhang | PalinT, who blocked you | 06:51 |
| bazhang | linux_is_my_hero, via iTunes alone | 06:51 |
| roscoe | sam-_- i dont know how to check that and i feel stupid for not understanding it :P but i just tested some other games and they all run perfectly, just the 3d one isnt running right, so should i be safe to assume its video card and not ram <though more ram would be nice>? | 06:52 |
| BlueBomber7 | OtterNZ: Are you running Compiz? | 06:52 |
| bazhang | roscoe, how much ram | 06:52 |
| one_ | not work | 06:52 |
| OtterNZ | BlueBomber7: Yes. Looking to try and find the settings needed in compizconfig now | 06:52 |
| bazhang | !work | one_ | 06:52 |
| ubottu | one_: Doesn't work is a strong statement. Does it sit on the couch all day? Does it want more money? Is it on IRC all the time? Please be specific! Examples of what doesn't work tend to help too. | 06:52 |
| roscoe | bazhang 512 mb | 06:52 |
| bazhang | roscoe, yeah that would slow it down | 06:52 |
| linux_is_my_hero | bazhang: doesn't work | 06:52 |
| BlueBomber7 | OtterNZ: You should find the window decorator option. | 06:52 |
| linux_is_my_hero | says it can't complete the format | 06:53 |
| sam-_- | roscoe, either by hearing or there should be a led that blinks when there is activity. | 06:53 |
| opengeard | blacklist/depmod -r pcspkr doesn't appear to silence beeps in lucid. | 06:53 |
| BlueBomber7 | OtterNZ: AFAIK compiz uses "its own" window decorator by default, which is actually just a small wrapper around metacity. Whatever decorator you decide to use you can manage from the window decoration submenu. | 06:53 |
| opengeard | is there something else that does the trick? | 06:53 |
| sam-_- | roscoe, we all were noobs once. no need to feel stupid ;) | 06:54 |
| OtterNZ | BlueBomber7: It seems to only have 1 option for this, wouldn't this make changes system wide? | 06:54 |
| PalinT | when installing Ubuntu 10.10 within 7 install windows in 4 minutes and choose ubuntu restart to continue the installation is fridge and the PC screen | 06:54 |
| one_ | thank guy | 06:54 |
| roscoe | sam-_- haha yah :P i love ubuntu way more then windows, and im willing to learn all this stuff, but it can be confusing at first :P | 06:54 |
| bazhang | PalinT, wubi install? | 06:54 |
| Drahx_ | I tried reloading the image onto my Thumb drive but it still goes to a blank screen just before the installation options page :-( | 06:54 |
| BlueBomber7 | OtterNZ: Enable decoration, then click into the menu. I see seven or eight settings there. | 06:55 |
| linux_is_my_hero | does virtualbox support usb devices like mp3 player's? | 06:55 |
| bazhang | PalinT, fridge is frozen? | 06:55 |
| PalinT | yes | 06:55 |
| BlueBomber7 | OtterNZ: Nine settings. The eighth and ninth are conditional decoration and shadowing settings. | 06:55 |
| bazhang | linux_is_my_hero, the one from their website does, not the -ose in the repos | 06:55 |
| SwedeMike | linux_is_my_hero: it's a little bit tricky to get working, but yes. | 06:55 |
| PalinT | freezes when I start to follow the installation | 06:55 |
| sam-_- | roscoe, i couldn't live without windows. i love games :-) | 06:55 |
| magn3ts | false. | 06:55 |
| bazhang | PalinT, no idea about wubi installs sorry | 06:55 |
| roscoe | sam-_- about hearing the noise, it is not making anymore noise once i run the game, but the fan is always making a constant hum :P | 06:55 |
| PalinT | Show him | 06:56 |
| BlueBomber7 | OtterNZ: Unless you want to create your own metacity or emerald theme, you will lose more than the title bar when you disable decoration (no borders, shadows, anything, just window contents) | 06:56 |
| magn3ts | virtualbox is no longer distributed as separe OSE and non OSE version. | 06:56 |
| magn3ts | linux_is_my_hero, install virtualbox 4. | 06:56 |
| OtterNZ | BlueBomber7: It's enabled, I meant only 1 setting for which windows are decorated. When using the "add" button it only seems to have "and/or" functions, not some sort of "exclude" one | 06:56 |
| magn3ts | linux_is_my_hero, then install the usb extension. | 06:56 |
| Drahx_ | First thing I did was setup VMware with Windows 7 for my games | 06:56 |
| magn3ts | done. | 06:56 |
| bazhang | !info virtualbox-ose | 06:56 |
| ubottu | virtualbox-ose (source: virtualbox-ose): x86 virtualization solution - base binaries. In component universe, is optional. Version 3.2.8-dfsg-2ubuntu1 (maverick), package size 8847 kB, installed size 31396 kB (Only available for amd64 i386 lpia all) | 06:56 |
| bazhang | magn3ts, ^ | 06:56 |
| sam-_- | roscoe, check the led. but i doubt it's ram related | 06:56 |
| magn3ts | That's no longer accurate in regards to virtualbox 4. | 06:56 |
| roscoe | sam-_- haha yah :P personaly i say use ubuntu, and virtualbox windows xp on it so u have ur games on virtualbox, and use linux as ur main system :P | 06:56 |
| sam-_- | roscoe, btw. which game? | 06:56 |
| magn3ts | unless virtualbox-ose is the baseline virtualbox 4 image. There is no Non-OSE version of VirtualBox 4 distributed. The non-OSS components are distributed as extpack's. | 06:57 |
| sam-_- | roscoe, i play new games too. they don't work in a vm | 06:57 |
| BlueBomber7 | OtterNZ: Did you experience invert? It *may* invert the set of windows to which the condition applies, which sounds like what you want. | 06:57 |
| PalinT | http://img232.imageshack.us/img232/7707/imag0639s.jpg | 06:57 |
| roscoe | sam-_- im just trying with Supertuxkart for now | 06:57 |
| BlueBomber7 | OtterNZ: Experiment with* | 06:57 |
| PalinT | is what I get when rebooting to continue installation | 06:57 |
| roscoe | sam-_- why wouldnt new games work in a vm? halo ce does and black ops? | 06:57 |
| Drahx_ | sam-_-: I have had no issues with new games and I playing them on my VM Windows 7 | 06:58 |
| sam-_- | Drahx_, which vm? | 06:58 |
| linux_is_my_hero | how do i install the usb plugin for virtualbox? | 06:58 |
| OtterNZ | BlueBomber7: Ok, I used the invert option and selected my browser, closing and opening browser to see if it did anything. Will exit this because this is open in my browser | 06:58 |

| Bokehmon | what is the default panel applet for wireless internet named? i accidentally deleted it and i don't know what the name is in the "add to panel" menu ._. | 07:00 |
| akerl | Ovron: that works if I'm calling it from a script i guess, but if i run that script, and then try ssh-add, it gives me "Could not open a connection to your authentication agent." | 07:00 |
| sam-_- | Bokehmon, nm-applet | 07:00 |
| magn3ts | bazhang, he's not even in #vbox >_< what a goof | 07:00 |
| OtterNZ | BlueBomber7: I had the "and" option inverted when selecting my browser, didn't seem to do anything. At least I now know as a last resort I can disable all, and add it back in on every other application 1 by 1 lol | 07:00 |
| roscoe | sam-_- native to vm fps? for league of legends native fps=75, vm fps=74 when i checked yesterday :P | 07:00 |
| roscoe | sam-_- minecraft's fps didnt drop at all in vm | 07:01 |
| Bokehmon | sam-_-: not seeing "nm-applet" there | 07:01 |
| Drahx_ | sam-_-: My FPS dropped by 5% which is nothing, I set 8gb of Ram and 2 cores to run each, so I get great performance in both Linux and Windows | 07:01 |
| sam-_- | roscoe, that seems nice. and you have full acceleration? (all the directx 11 features) | 07:01 |
| bazhang | Bokehmon, you can always just resetpanels | 07:01 |

| qq99 | I turned compiz off | 07:05 |
| bazhang | qq99, probably in ccsm | 07:06 |

| BlueBomber7 | qq99: Check your window switcher shortcuts in compiz | 07:06 |
| bazhang | upsla, then you should be, if you want to use the cd as an install source | 07:06 |
| BlueBomber7 | qq99: Compiz sets (and overwrites) a slew of shortcuts when you enable it. | 07:06 |

| BlueBomber7 | qq99: Compiz isn't necessarily always running. It sets itself as the default when you install it, though IIRC. | 07:09 |
| roscoe | if i were to put a new videocard onto my old computer <Videocard: geforce 6200, OS: Ubuntu 10.04>, would i need to install some drivers beforehand for the videocard or just plug it in and go? is there anything id halfto do before hand? | 07:10 |
| bazhang | roscoe, put in , then install drivers after | 07:10 |
| Scott` | you can install the drivers after you install the card | 07:10 |
| ubuntusage | I guess its the problem with acpi or such | 07:10 |
| Scott` | itll use generic drivers until then | 07:10 |
| sam-_- | roscoe, supertuxkart should run with a 6200 i think | 07:10 |
| BlueBomber7 | roscoe: Nope, drivers update after you install it. | 07:10 |
| Scott` | and also i wouldnt call the 6200 new | 07:10 |
| sam-_- | roscoe, have you installed the proprietary drivers? | 07:11 |
| upsla | bazhang:hi.but if it is there as u say, it shows error when i try to add a package from ubuntu cd ? | 07:11 |
| ubuntusage | I am using toshiba L650 laptop and it does not detect battery :( | 07:11 |
| roscoe | sam-_- yah thats what im thinking, taking 3 broken old computers and switching parts till we get it to work :P and no i havnt | 07:11 |
| bazhang | upsla, I did not say it was there, I told you where to look; have you looked? | 07:11 |
| roscoe | bazhang, BlueBomber7 okay, will it prompt me to do it after or will i halfto google it and find the driver myself? | 07:11 |
| upsla | bazhang:no | 07:12 |
| bazhang | roscoe, via additional drivers you can check | 07:12 |
| sam-_- | roscoe, if there are no proprietary drivers installed then yes just plug the new one in. it should just work. you may then need to install drivers | 07:12 |
| roscoe | sam-_- , bazhang, My dad said lastime he put in the videocard earlier today the computer wouldnt turn on and it just beeped at him, what would be the fix to that? | 07:13 |
| upsla | bazhang:if it is not there . what i should in these /etc/apt/sources ??? | 07:13 |
| BlueBomber7 | roscoe: I don't know. The maker might provide a non-free driver for Canonical to distribute, but maybe not. | 07:13 |
| sam-_- | roscoe, there is the additional driver manager it will show you if there are drivers available for your card. | 07:13 |
| olskolirc | how can i get gufw to sit in my system tray please? | 07:13 |
| bazhang | upsla, paste.ubuntu.com /etc/apt/sources.list and give us the url | 07:13 |
| BlueBomber7 | roscoe: If the maker doesn't free (as in "open up") their drivers to the community, send them an email bugging them to :-) | 07:13 |
| upsla | bazhang:k | 07:14 |
| BlueBomber7 | roscoe: That said, I've seen EXCELLENT OOB support for all my ATI and nVidia cards. | 07:14 |
| sam-_- | roscoe, can mean a lot of stuff. broken video card. not enough power for the video card. not correctly plugged in... | 07:14 |
| roscoe | sam-_- bozhang BlueBomber7 thanks, ima shut down the computer and try, thanks everyone | 07:14 |
| quizme | hi | 07:14 |
| roscoe | sam-_- well well just see what it is... if all goes wrong i still have this one that just doesent have 3d support :P | 07:14 |
| sam-_- | BlueBomber7, what is OOB? | 07:14 |
| bazhang | sam-_-, out of the box | 07:15 |
| sam-_- | bazhang, ah. thx | 07:15 |
| quizme | i'm trying to add this to my /etc/apt/sources.list http://archive.cloudera.com/debian/dists/lucid-cdh3/contrib/binary-amd64/Packages.gz | 07:15 |
| quizme | but i looked at sources.list and it doesn't look like a URL | 07:15 |
| quizme | how do i translate that URL into a sources.list line ? | 07:15 |
| quizme | the sources.list line that the docs gave me look like this: deb http://archive.cloudera.com/debian DISTRO-cdh3 contrib | 07:16 |
| upsla | bazhang:it says apt not installed ?? | 07:16 |
| quizme | but i'm getting package not found 404 | 07:16 |
| upsla | bazhang:it says to download openjdk. | 07:16 |
| quizme | after doing an apt-get update | 07:16 |
| bazhang | upsla, what does openjdk have to do with this, just paste.ubuntu.com your sources.list | 07:17 |
| upsla | bazhang:k. | 07:17 |
| sam-_- | quizme, try deb http://archive.cloudera.com/debian lucid-cdh3 contrib | 07:18 |

| sam-_- | IdleOne, there is no maverick version. so it doesn't matter | 07:20 |
| brainfreeze | ok | 07:20 |
| IdleOne | sam-_-: ahh, ok | 07:20 |
| sam-_- | IdleOne, as long as he uses 10.04 or higher which i just assumed | 07:21 |
| quizme | idleone: i had to replace DISTRO with "lucid" | 07:21 |
| quizme | thanks | 07:21 |

| rasa | what's the proper way to install the nvidia drivers on 10.10 ? | 07:22 |

| carson | whats a better video card, gforce 4 or gforce 6200? | 07:27 |
| sacarlson | vitalii: I get site not found error | 07:27 |
| Scott` | carson, neither | 07:27 |
| rasa | that's after installing the nvidia drivers, and running nvidia-xconfig per https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto/Nvidia | 07:27 |
| sacarlson | vitalii: from my browser | 07:27 |
| Scott` | they both suck so bad that you wouldnt really notice | 07:27 |
| Scott` | but the 6200 is better | 07:27 |
| SwedeMike | carson: 6200 is newer so probably better, but they're both really old and basic. | 07:27 |
| rasa | that those drivers are not for 10.10, but an earlier version | 07:27 |

| watermaster | OK I have a new install of 10.04 and I have a geforce gtx460 se card, which on my new install only displays 800x600. when I go to enable hardware, it doesn't see any binary drivers available. before changing driver, should I try to use one of the xrandr tools to change resolution? | 07:37 |
| dotblank | watermaster, sure go for it | 07:38 |
| Scott` | watermaster | 07:38 |
| dotblank | watermaster, won't really help with the driver issue tho | 07:38 |
| Scott` | go to nvidia.com and just download it from there | 07:38 |
| sacarlson | watermaster: still haven't got that fixed? lspci -v what driver you have it on now? that should show us | 07:38 |
| watermaster | OK | 07:38 |
| dotblank | don't listen to Scott` download the driver from the repo | 07:38 |
| glaceman | good morning every 1 | 07:38 |
| SwedeMike | Scott`: I don't think you can do that with 10.04 and later, that way was deprecated. But nvidia might have changed something since? | 07:39 |
| dotblank | It will break after every kernel update if you download from nvidia | 07:39 |
| Scott` | i did it on 10.10 | 07:39 |

| Danny78 | I booted ubuntu into FreeDOS and when I typed in the name of the new bios file it said it couldn't find it... any help? | 07:39 |
| dotblank | it doesn't use dkms by default | 07:39 |
| sacarlson | watermaster: one of my installs on nvidea I had a simmilar problem but the problem was that it didn't reconcnize my monitor | 07:39 |
| watermaster | last night I tried to hack around with stuff from the xorg-edgers, I think. That completely destroyed X, so I reinstalled. | 07:40 |
| Danny78 | should I just try ezflash? | 07:40 |
| sacarlson | watermaster: bellow that the driver with lspci -v it should read nvidia | 07:40 |
| watermaster | SwedeMike: checking that link | 07:40 |

| SwedeMike | watermaster: but it's still not the best way, see if you can't find a repository with the nvidia drivers you need, then you'll get smooth kernel upgrades in the future, if you do that method you'll have to re-install the nvidia drivers every time you change kernels. | 07:41 |
| dotblank | watermaster, oh plese don't follow those intructions | 07:41 |
| dotblank | watermaster, they are incorrect | 07:41 |
| dotblank | watermaster, they will break after every update | 07:42 |
| watermaster | sacarlson: what did you run that says which kernel driver is in use? | 07:42 |
| sacarlson | watermaster: lspci -v | 07:42 |
| sacarlson | watermaster: but just one of the last line in the part about your video card | 07:43 |
| watermaster | oh I see it blocked me from flooding: Kernel modules: nvidiafb, nouveau | 07:43 |
| watermaster | oh here's something from hardwarecanucks: "GTX 460 SE is what’s called a “virtual product” in certain distributor circles. This means there is no reference version per se and NVIDIA’s AIBs can design the card around a loosely defined set of specifications" | 07:45 |
| sacarlson | watermaster: yes those are the available what is in use? as you can see mine http://pastebin.com/shm861Jw | 07:49 |
| watermaster | http://paste.ubuntu.com/554633/ | 07:49 |
| watermaster | thats all mine tells, me, I don't think it tells me chich is in use | 07:50 |

| lynxomania | yea... the user has an encrypted home directory!!! | 07:53 |
| sacarlson | watermaster: in theory you should be able to have them all installed and move between the drivers but as we seem to have found they seem to comflict some how | 07:53 |

| watermaster | sacarlson, does it seem accurate that its probably safer to try out nouveau from ppa first, since they maybe are less of a hassle to remove? | 07:54 |
| greppy | lynxomania: unless they saved the decrypt string, you are going to have to get the old password back, otherwise, it's gone. | 07:54 |

| Bluefever | I'm planning on installing windows 7 just so I can play some games on the side, and wanted to know how I can partition my drive properly. | 07:54 |
| Bluefever | I'm running ubuntu 10.10 at the moment | 07:54 |
| sacarlson | watermaster: I'm not sure, I don't recall any being that hard to remove | 07:55 |
| lynxomania | greppy: i have the encryption password for home folder... | 07:55 |
| edoceo | Bluefever: Make a partition for Windows, instatall to that - re-install the bootloader to undo with Win7 did, boot Win and play games | 07:55 |
| sacarlson | watermaster: worst case you delete the driver from the kernel or just rename it so it can't be found | 07:55 |
| watermaster | any word whether I should update to a real new kernel first? | 07:55 |
| greppy | lynxomania: then sudo su - $user, and try "ecryptfs-mount-private" | 07:56 |
| lynxomania | what about the init=/bin/bash issue i mentioned... how come i got the message /bin/bash doesnt exist... | 07:56 |
| glaceman | edoceo: let's say im currently running ubuntu, and planning to install windows on another partition, how can i fix the boot , cause grub will be gone | 07:56 |
| Bluefever | O.k. so I got the first part, and I think I've read about the second part you mentioned, but how would I go about reinstalling the bootloader @edoceo | 07:56 |
| sacarlson | watermaster: I think the old kernel would be better since that is what they used to compile the last update of real nvidea | 07:56 |
| watermaster | maybe I should just get an older nvidia card to use with linux, as the drivers are better for the loder cards | 07:56 |

| puppy | and I tried to mount it and upgrade but failed | 08:52 |
| bazhang | sysop3, nothing? | 08:52 |
| puppy | any other way to upgrade than online | 08:52 |
| User | Hello | 08:52 |
| bazhang | puppy you need the alternate for that | 08:52 |
| sysop3 | ok, just asking. | 08:52 |
| puppy | ya I have one. | 08:52 |
| Dr_Willis | sysop3: i recall ages ago xchat having lots of features, and nice defautls.. then they slowly started trimming things out.. got annoying after a while. :) | 08:52 |
| sysop3 | I used to be a devoted bitchx user. but xchat is so much easier | 08:53 |
| bazhang | puppy, not the live cd but the alternate cd can be an upgrade option | 08:53 |
| sysop3 | I like it now. it is a little sparse. | 08:53 |
| bazhang | !offline | puppy also this | 08:53 |
| ubottu | puppy also this: If you need to download Ubuntu packages using another machine or OS, check the desired packages in Synaptic and select File > Generate package download script. Alternatively, try http://ubottu.com/ljl/apt/ - See also !APTonCD | 08:53 |
| Scott` | i'm still waiting for someone to mention mIRC | 08:53 |

| puppy | ok i will try. | 08:54 |
| puppy | thanks | 08:54 |
| Dr_Willis | sysop3: a few years back when xchat changed their default color scheme and some other things. they removed a large # of default menu items/settings/defaults/scripts that really annoyed people. | 08:54 |

| Dr_Willis | JackyAlcine: whats the brand of the HD? some companies have a web site - you enter the serial/model # and they tell you how much longer the warrenty is good for. I got some broken Segates gave to me.. and was able to return them that way :) got 320GB hd's for free that way | 08:58 |

| vonvon | bazhang: how to backup Hard drive image | 09:00 |
| bazhang | vonvon, via clonezilla , remastersys , sbackup or the like | 09:00 |
| Dr_Willis | JackyAlcine: they also have some repair utilities.. but the question is - do you want to try to save the data? and even if you 'fix' the drive via their software - do you trust it.. | 09:00 |
| lynxomania | dr_willis: the client is online too... | 09:00 |
| sysop3 | Dr_Willis, phoenix was a old old irc script | 09:00 |

| Doinkle | lynxomania, quick and dirty: teamviewer.com | 09:00 |

| Bluefever | Hey, I wanted to play some games that fair better on windows, and at first I was thinking of partitioning my drive just for this purpose, but I'm having second thoughts. So I figured I would just use a virtual machine instead, but I wanted to know if there were any negatives to doing so. I mean would it run slower, require more processing power etc. | 09:24 |
| rahadian | Dr_willis & bazhang : thanks for your help | 09:25 |
| Dr_Willis | rahadian: the omgubuntu blog site - has a few mentioned almost every week. they give a cleaner look. | 09:25 |
| nawk | Unlike previous versions of Ubuntu, Maverick Meercat by default doesn't setup any additional tty (virtual terminals) | 09:25 |
| Doinkle | Bluefever, it depends on the demands of the game | 09:25 |
| bazhang | Bluefever, check the appdb for wine info | 09:25 |
| Doinkle | Bluefever, FPS are generally out for VMs but RPGs and 2D games are alright. | 09:25 |

| Doinkle | ha | 09:26 |
| Dr_Willis | rahadian: i would have to google for it.. | 09:26 |
| Bluefever | I'm aware of wine, and I would have used it, but there are too many bugs associated with the games I would like to play. | 09:26 |
| Bluefever | running under wine. | 09:27 |
| Bluefever | Which is why I was going to partition my drive. | 09:27 |
| Doinkle | Bluefever, how current of games? | 09:27 |
| DasEi | Bluefever: specs of the box ? (ram, cpu, graphics ) ? | 09:27 |
| Bluefever | Uhh.. The main one is Call of Cthulhu Dark Corners of The Earth | 09:27 |
| Bluefever | I think I allocated 512mb of ram to VirtualMachine. | 09:28 |
| Bluefever | not sure about the cpu or graphics | 09:28 |
| DasEi | Bluefever: cat /proc/cpuinfo | 09:29 |

| Desen | Greetings ! I have installed Ubuntu 10.10 one month ago and today i was reading about the advantages of compiling the linux kernel on your PC. Is there any possibility of compiling the kernel on a system that has already linux (ubuntu) installed ? | 09:35 |
| Dr_Willis | Desen: i doubt if you waill gain anything noticeable | 09:35 |
| bazhang | Desen, not really | 09:35 |
| Doinkle | Desen, yep | 09:35 |
| ubuntusage | Desen:not really needed, you could do it for just learning purposes | 09:35 |
| Dr_Willis | Desen: you would be better off spending time learning bash or python, or other linux related topics then playing with the kernel. :) | 09:36 |
| ubuntusage | Desen:or you are in need for any additional modules | 09:36 |
| Diverdude | Desen, so what are the advantages? | 09:36 |
| Doinkle | Desen, if you really want to dabble in this, do it in a vm..not your host machine. :) | 09:36 |

| jemark | ubuntusage, 1.80 is the latest BIOS | 09:53 |
| nawk | Dr_Willis, after a fresh install, on the first few boots I was able to load into ubuntu fine. Until recently X failed to load. Basically black screen right after loading all the other startups | 09:54 |
| jemark | ubuntusage, update the bios, latest update is of 15/09/10 and should solve your issues | 09:54 |
| nawk | Dr_Willis, how can I recover it? I'm on my LiveUSB again, so I do have access to the new installation | 09:54 |
| jemark | ubuntusage, http://uk.computers.toshiba-europe.com/innovation/download_bios.jsp?service=UK | 09:54 |
| ubuntusage | jemark:1.70 is the latest one accourding to the toshiba ulitity | 09:54 |
| Dr_Willis | gabriel_: googling for 'replace underscore spaces' give example scripts. youmay need to modify them, . because MOST people want to remove spaces. | 09:55 |
| jemark | ubuntusage, check | 09:55 |
| Dr_Willis | gabriel_: https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?pid=273598 is one hit i just checked out | 09:55 |
| ubuntusage | jemark:thanks, I am checking it :) | 09:55 |
| gabriel_ | Dr_Willis, thanks m8 | 09:55 |
| Dr_Willis | gabriel_: spaces in file names - break so many things badly. i never want spaces in filenames | 09:56 |
| ubuntusage | jemark:umm that does not have my model, mine is L650 X5310 Indian one, let me try to find the one for it | 09:56 |
| andy_ | @gabriel - rename 's/_/ /g' * | 09:56 |
| andy_ | you can't use double quotes inside double quotes | 09:56 |
| jemark | ubuntusage, i see | 09:56 |

| ubuntusage | jemark:it says 1.70 is the latest | 09:59 |
| jemark | ubuntusage, strange isn't it while the uk page has 1.80 | 09:59 |
| yuva | tell me to the steps remove drupal | 10:00 |
| sitalkas | how could i set my computer to accept ssh connections? should i open the 22 port from the router? | 10:00 |
| psycho_oreos | ssh| sitalkas | 10:00 |
| psycho_oreos | !ssh| sitalkas | 10:00 |
| ubottu | sitalkas: SSH is the Secure SHell protocol, see: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SSH for client usage. PuTTY is an SSH client for Windows; see: http://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgtatham/putty/ for it's homepage. See also !scp (Secure CoPy) and !sshd (Secure SHell Daemon) | 10:00 |
| psycho_oreos | and yes you should open port 22 from your router if you want external access of ssh onto your computer | 10:00 |
| ubuntusage | jemark:yeah, I guess its not good idea to put 1.8 now | 10:01 |
| one | hi\ | 10:01 |
| robbit10 | !midi > robbit10 | 10:01 |
| ubottu | robbit10, please see my private message | 10:01 |
| yuva | hey answer me dudes tell me the steps to remove drupal | 10:01 |
| jemark | ubuntusage, what is different with those models? i guess, the kernel is ok otherwise more laptops have the issue. toshiba need to put a link for the 1.80 update on the indian site :) | 10:02 |
| sitalkas | i connected to myself from console, but i wanted to connect also from outside. so i will open the 22. how can i find my computer remotely ith dynamic ip? can i use my dyndns domain? | 10:02 |
| === andy_ is now known as dilaudid | ||
| ubuntusage | jemark:yeah :( | 10:02 |
| psycho_oreos | sitalkas: yes but its probably more ideal to have the router running the ddns service | 10:03 |
| psycho_oreos | yuva: the opposite way of how you installed it | 10:03 |
| quizme | what does an "escapable argument" mean? | 10:03 |
| quizme | is that like *.txt ? | 10:03 |
| jemark | ubuntusage, acpi is part of the bios | 10:03 |
| yuva | psycho_oreos: taht only dude | 10:03 |
| yuva | tell the steps | 10:04 |
| ubuntusage | jemark:I see, thats a good piece of info. umm I will try in that line | 10:04 |
| Dr_Willis | sitalkas: theres dydns services for ubuntu you can use. many routers support it also these days | 10:04 |

| robbit10 | I'm trying to set up Timidity to start up on boot, but when started via the /etc/init.d script, it will not function as a server. When I use the commands to run it as a server as listed on https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Midi/SoftwareSynthesisHowTo, it works. But I want it to run on boot. How? | 10:04 |
| jemark | ubuntusage, ask Toshiba what is the reason why the uk has a 1.80 firmware update on their site :) | 10:05 |
| sitalkas | psycho_oreos: i have set my router to DNS and works fine. so when i want to access my desktop i just give ssh mydomain.dyndns.org and then it will ask me for the domain pass or sth? | 10:05 |
| andy_ | dilaudid testing | 10:05 |
| ubuntusage | jemark: yeah ;) | 10:05 |
| andy_ | @dilaudid testing | 10:05 |
| andy_ | what what dilaudid | 10:05 |
| psycho_oreos | sitalkas: it should ask you for the pass to your computer that is running sshd, though you will need to accept the keys as well prior to entering your own password | 10:05 |
| livingdaylight | can someone help me with ssh? | 10:06 |

| Darkc0der | Hello, I was wondering if there was someone here to help me with an issue on Ubuntu. | 10:07 |
| psycho_oreos | livingdaylight: its either blocked by firewall or by some other service, might even be /etc/hosts.deny | 10:07 |
| greppy | !ask | Darkc0der | 10:07 |
| ubottu | Darkc0der: 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. :-) | 10:07 |
| ubuntusage | Darkc0der: I repeat what ubottu just said ;) | 10:08 |
| sitalkas | i have set no keyes to the computer for ssh. i must do that before i connect? | 10:08 |
| Darkc0der | Okay i am wanting to run a Program called "Paltalk" they have a actually program that runs on windows and a web based version of it, Wine has problems running it so i tried using the web based version but it keeps crashing, I have Flash installed so i am not sure whats going on. | 10:08 |
| Dr_Willis | sitalkas: it should generate them if needed | 10:09 |
| === richard is now known as richardr | ||
| psycho_oreos | sitalkas: you don't really need keys for it, there is host keys which will be available on connect then there is auth keys which can be generated for password-less login (which I don't have any experience in) | 10:09 |
| Dr_Willis | Darkc0der: sounds similer to 'meebo' web site | 10:09 |
| ubuntusage | Darkc0der: I guess Paltak is just an IM, so y cant you go for Pidgin/Empathy which is supported by Ubuntu? | 10:10 |
| sitalkas | ;) for now when i will have more questions, that i bet i will, u'll be hearing from me again. thank you all | 10:10 |
| Darkc0der | I use paltalk a lot and their website confirms that it works on on Mac/Linux, the web based anyways | 10:10 |

| bt5 | what about netgear wg311v3 in backtrack? | 10:11 |
| Darkc0der | Latest, Ubuntu 11.04 | 10:11 |
| SwedeMike | Darkc0der: #ubuntu+1 for non-relased versions. | 10:12 |
| psycho_oreos | !ubuntu+1| Darkc0der | 10:12 |
| ubottu | Darkc0der: Natty Narwhal is the codename for Ubuntu 11.04 - Natty is NOT released and is NOT stable - Discussion and support only in #ubuntu+1 | 10:12 |
| psycho_oreos | bt5: that has nothing to do with ubuntu | 10:12 |
| ubuntusage | Darkc0der:Ubuntu 11.04 is still on testing phase, it snot stable, Recommends you to use 10.10/10.04 | 10:12 |
| Darkc0der | That's what it says in my about ubuntu | 10:12 |
| Darkc0der | I'm a newb to linux, i know lol. | 10:13 |
| SwedeMike | otoh there is a bug that makes ubuntu 10.10 say it's 11.04 though | 10:13 |
| Darkc0der | I downloaded the 10.04 or i forgot but i know it was 10 and not 11 | 10:14 |
| psycho_oreos | SwedeMike: would lsb_release be also affected by the same bug? | 10:14 |

| ubuntusage | alaing:ufw is ubuntu firewall, check ufw policy as Abhijit said | 10:15 |
| Darkc0der | I know, but i was talking about their web based version of it, express.paltalk.com | 10:16 |
| Dr_Willis | Darkc0der: and i do not suggest trying 11.04 at this time. | 10:16 |
| alaing | i did sudo ufw policy but it could not find it and gave me a load of commands | 10:16 |
| ubuntusage | alaing: iptables -L -n | more will also help yuo | 10:16 |
| ubuntusage | alaing: thats ufw help | 10:16 |
| Dr_Willis | Darkc0der: meebo.com (i think) is also a web-based multi-im client you may want to try | 10:16 |
| AbhiJit | alaing, sudo ufw status | 10:17 |
| battleground | here's my question: I see some wireless networks in net.manag. and I was thinking if one could find out about those routers external ip? | 10:17 |

| alaing | does that mean all ports are beign allowed in? | 10:18 |
| AbhiJit | NO | 10:18 |
| alaing | and nother is being blocked | 10:18 |
| AbhiJit | THAT MEANS FIREWALL IS NOT RUNNING | 10:18 |
| AbhiJit | sorry for caps | 10:18 |
| alaing | so no firewall means nothing being blocked | 10:18 |
| AbhiJit | yes | 10:18 |
| ubuntusage | alaing:must be, as long as you can see no results in 'sudo iptables -L -n | more' you can make sure there is no rule that is blocking the packets | 10:18 |
| Dr_Willis | by default theres no firewall rules = nothing blocked | 10:18 |

| battleground | ok, leave wireshark... So, there's no other option you guys could think of? | 10:23 |

| Q| | Hey guys. Since reboot last night X configuration is messed up. I use a 2nd X display to play games on, in a lower resolution then the main X server (1920x1200 main, 1024x768 2nd). Problem is, the visible area is shifted to the LEFT side. Any ideas how to fix and where this error comes from? | 10:24 |
| Gnea | battleground: if there's no purpose to it then there's no point in asking. | 10:25 |
| alaing | ubuntusage: can i do that from win 7? | 10:25 |
| red2kic | Kranix: "scriptone && scripttwo" --or-- "scriptone ; scripttwo" -- depends on how you want it. | 10:25 |
| Q| | The shift is not visible with 1920x1200, just with the lower resolution btw | 10:25 |
| ubuntusage | :alaing: yes | 10:25 |
| Gnea | Q|: so you're running 2 different X servers? | 10:25 |
| alaing | i tried itin cmd and it recon it could not find telnet | 10:26 |
| Gnea | red2kic, Kranix: using &&, scripttwo would only run once scriptone finished running successfully | 10:26 |
| Q| | Gnea, yes, I login into an GNOME session and then run this: ck-launch-session xinit $HOME/startwow.sh -- :1 -screen WoW, while startwow.sh has this in it: exec twm | 10:26 |
| battleground | Gnea, can some things be left in theory? I just couldn't find the answer in google, so that's why I came here, that's it. | 10:27 |
| ubuntusage | alaing: which windows you are using, I just tried on windows 2003 server, xp and win 7 | 10:27 |
| Gnea | Q|: nice. have you looked at the logfile in /var/log/ yet? should be something like /var/log/Xorg.1.log | 10:27 |
| battleground | (can't try wireshark now, I don't have admin acount). | 10:27 |

| Kranix | Haven't actually tried writing a script before, I want it to execute cd /home/magnus/.megaglest followed by glestsvn.bin, how would I write that? | 10:28 |

| Zara | hello | 10:28 |
| battleground | I've got your point, that's why I leave the question open. | 10:29 |
| Dr_Willis | Kranix: check some bash scriptng tutorials.. that would be like 3 lines total in a scipt.. | 10:29 |
| Kranix | Okay, I will. | 10:29 |

| nfrs | I've got a mystery here. "ssh user@localip" works fine. however, "scp user@localip:/path ." apparently interprets localip as a domain name! | 10:34 |
| Q| | Gnea, no errors in there, but I spotted that it seems to use some old CRT-0 device, which was my old config, but now it's an LCD which has it's own entry generated automagically. To tackle the problem from another side since I have some custom entries in xorg.conf which might be outdated: How can I re-create it automagically? | 10:34 |

| nfrs | ubuntusage: which makes me think that scp tried to resolve LOCAL_IP at opendns, and opendns returned its generic error ip address in response | 10:41 |
| Dr_Willis | Kranix: a .sh couldbe a shell script or a gui app. so it wouldebnt make a lot of sence. if they are executable they should 'run' with no default app - i think. | 10:42 |
| Dr_Willis | aioobe: its possible compiz can do that. but i really never have liked gkrellm | 10:42 |
| ubuntusage | nfrs:I see, you checked for host entries too? | 10:43 |
| Dr_Willis | aioobe: i thought gkrellm had a panel mode that kept windows from covevering it. | 10:43 |
| Kranix | I used "open with other application" and selected gedit so I could edit it, but now it just opens in notepad if I double click it even though it's marked as executable... | 10:43 |
| Dr_Willis | Kranix: right click, see if thers a run item. | 10:44 |
| nfrs | ubuntulog: /etc/hosts has nothing with that | 10:44 |
| nfrs | (with LOCAL_IP) | 10:44 |
| Kranix | Looks like I accidentally unchecked the "allow executing file as program" button. | 10:44 |
| nfrs | ubuntusage: ^ | 10:44 |
| nfrs | ubuntusage: also, ping LOCAL_IP works fine, too | 10:44 |
| ubuntusage | nfrs: local IP is your machine IP itself or some other IP in your LAN? | 10:46 |
| nfrs | ubuntulog: the latter | 10:46 |
| nfrs | ubuntulog: 10.0.0.XYZ | 10:46 |
| Dr_Willis | aioobe: gkrellm does have a panel mode, that keeps windows from going over it.. you have to enable the mode, then restart gkrellm | 10:47 |

| tintumon | Need:using compaq? | 10:58 |
| sta7ic | NeedsHelpWithFan: laptop cooler? | 10:58 |
| NeedsHelpWithFan | I'm using Asus A8JS | 10:58 |
| asyraff | ubuntusage, my pendrive is not listed in the fdisk... | 10:58 |
| Dr_Willis | Its possible the 'server' kernel dosent have the proper modules/settings NeedsHelpWithFan | 10:58 |
| tintumon | Dr_Willis, ya i tried it but no support for im | 10:58 |
| NeedsHelpWithFan | there is a cooler there now yes it'll auto turn itself off when it reaches 100+ abit | 10:58 |
| Dr_Willis | tintumon: no support for what? | 10:58 |
| oCean | AbhiJit: maybe start in #ubuntu-locoteams ? | 10:59 |
| tintumon | NeedsHelpWithFan, using compaq? | 10:59 |
| red2kic | NeedsHelpWithFan: I'm lazy. I have a little HTPC machine that have no fans. I need to buy 40x40mm. Meanwhile, I use a regular fan to blow on it. Works great. | 10:59 |
| tintumon | Dr_Willis, instant messaging softwares and im sites | 10:59 |
| asyraff | psycho_oreos, pendrive | 10:59 |
| Dr_Willis | tintumon: err.. if i teather my pc to my phone.. its the same as if i was on any other network... | 10:59 |
| NeedsHelpWithFan | <tintumon> i'm using asus | 10:59 |
| AbhiJit | oCean, ok | 10:59 |
| Kranix | <Kranix> If I run the script normally nothing happens, if I run it in the terminal it closes down instantly... | 10:59 |
| psycho_oreos | asyraff: as sta7ic said, it will be seen there along with `sudo fdisk -l' | 10:59 |
| ubuntusage | asyraff: pendrive is functioning are you sure? and which is ur OS? | 10:59 |
| NeedsHelpWithFan | <Dr_Willis> can i load the proper modules? | 10:59 |
| NeedsHelpWithFan | <sta7ic> yes it is sitting on a laptopcooler now | 11:00 |
| tintumon | Dr_Willis, wt u mean? | 11:00 |
| Dr_Willis | NeedsHelpWithFan: no idea. i dont use the server edition. Youmay want to try the live cd/desktop edition . or even the 11.04 testing to see if the fans work there. | 11:00 |
| chris_ubu | hi | 11:00 |
| asyraff | sta7ic, erm...it detects my kingston...but there are no device in the computer | 11:00 |
| psycho_oreos | tintumon: by tethering he meant connecting your phone to your computer via USB | 11:00 |
| Dr_Willis | tintumon: ive no idea what you are meaning. If i 'tether' my PC -> android phone.. my PC is able to run any internet apps same as if i was connected normally (via cable modem for example) | 11:01 |
| asyraff | ubuntusage, im using ubuntu 10.10 | 11:01 |
| Dr_Willis | psycho_oreos: actually its using wireless :) | 11:01 |
| psycho_oreos | asyraff: use something like gparted to see the disk, it might not even be formatted | 11:01 |
| NeedsHelpWithFan | Dr_Willis the fans turn on now and then, but i think because sensors are reporting the high and critical temperature to be both at 100degrees celsius, the laptop gets to that temperature then starts the fan and dies because it can't cool off fast enough | 11:01 |
| tintumon | Dr_Willis, i trieds usb tethering but its only possible with easytether | 11:01 |
| psycho_oreos | Dr_Willis: bluetooth? or as hotspot AP? | 11:01 |
| tintumon | psycho_oreos, ya | 11:01 |
| psycho_oreos | tintumon: so whats wrong with easytether? | 11:01 |
| Dr_Willis | psycho_oreos: it can do bt. but ive never tried thast yet. working as wireless ap. but Ubutu seems to have some issues with ad-hoc networking :( | 11:02 |
| NeedsHelpWithFan | Dr_Willis Core 0: +65.0°C (high = +100.0°C, crit = +100.0°C) | 11:02 |
| tintumon | psycho_oreos, no support for im | 11:02 |
| tintumon | psycho_oreos, any soln? | 11:02 |
| psycho_oreos | Dr_Willis: ahh yeah that's the typical norm with ad-hoc networking which is what phones are mostly restricted to | 11:02 |
| asyraff | psycho_oreos, i have been formatted...if i plug in my usb and restart my laptop...then it will detect my usb... | 11:02 |
| NeedsHelpWithFan | can anyone help me change my sensors temperature setting ? its currently showing Core 0: +65.0°C (high = +100.0°C, crit = +100.0°C) and I'm suspecting its overheating because it only starts the fan at the high temperature of 100 | 11:02 |
| oCean | NeedsHelpWithFan: maybe someone in #ubuntu-server has experience with the asusfans package on -server ? | 11:03 |
| chris_ubu | I need some help with repairing/re-installing 10.10 ----the computer was updating when it froze and (to make a long story short) the computer cannot boot and gets stuck with a message saying "kernel panic" | 11:03 |
| tintumon | Dr_Willis, are using android 2.1 or 2.2? | 11:03 |
| psycho_oreos | tintumon: I don't understand how does IM has anything to do with tethering, you mean you can't use stuff like pidgin on the computer? | 11:03 |
| Dr_Willis | psycho_oreos: but the thing thats odd about tintumon is he SEEMS to be saying 'it works - but not for instant messanging programs' wich is weird. | 11:03 |
| Dr_Willis | tintumon: 2.1 at this time. | 11:03 |
| NeedsHelpWithFan | <oCean> thanks, i'll try that chnanel | 11:03 |
| tintumon | Dr_Willis, did u connect ur fon to ubuntu? | 11:03 |
| psycho_oreos | asyraff: but not now as it is? hmm what sort of filesystem is it? | 11:03 |
| tintumon | Dr_Willis, i mean tethering | 11:03 |
| tintumon | psycho_oreos, ya wt u said is right | 11:04 |
| asyraff | psycho_oreos, ifat32 | 11:04 |
| psycho_oreos | Dr_Willis: makes no sense to me imo, then again I don't have android and I've tethered without any dramas as well | 11:04 |
| psycho_oreos | asyraff: ifat32? | 11:04 |
| TopGear | Hi | 11:04 |
| asyraff | psycho_oreos, fat32* | 11:04 |
| tintumon | Dr_Willis, how its possible? | 11:04 |
| psycho_oreos | asyraff: hmm and when you plugged the flash drive in after the computer has booted, like as in now it doesn't get detected? | 11:04 |
| TopGear | Whenever I plugin my headset, my speakers still continue playing the music. Is there a way to mute them when my headset is plugged it? | 11:05 |
| tintumon | Dr_Willis, i connected fon pc is detected by fon mass storage feature works but no modem support | 11:05 |
| angrymatter | evil chrashes with ubuntu. harddisk light stays on. everything frozen. is this a normal chrash ? could It be related to Chromium ? | 11:05 |
| === ng_ is now known as NG_ | ||
| asyraff | psycho_oreos, it will detect if i boot my pc | 11:05 |
| psycho_oreos | asyraff: but not now, even if you unplug it and plug it back in? | 11:06 |
| Dr_Willis | tintumon: you normally tell the phone to use USB mass storage OR to not use it... it cant do data-connection and usb storage at the same time | 11:06 |
| asyraff | psycho_oreos, yup...for now....i have plug in several times and still the same...i have tried my other usb too... | 11:06 |
| === NG_ is now known as ng_ | ||
| Dr_Willis | tintumon: i dont need a usb cable to get my pc to th internet via my phone. :) | 11:07 |
| psycho_oreos | asyraff: hmm I'll need the last few lines of your dmesg output.. pastebin (not paste) your `dmesg| tail -20' | 11:07 |
| tintumon | Dr_Willis, i tried using cable enabled usb debugging | 11:08 |
| NeedsHelpWithFan | I'm running ubuntu server on an Asus A8JS laptop and I can't seem to control the fans and it overheats everytime it does anything strenuous. currently i get the temperature reading of http://paste.ubuntu.com/554669/ I've tried installing the asusfans package and lm-sensors but I'm unable to get my fans to cool my machine down before it reaches the critical temps and turn itself off | 11:08 |
| asyraff | psycho_oreos, how can i show you? | 11:09 |
| ubutom | NeedsHelpWithFan, be sure to check your BIOS for Fan options too | 11:09 |
| NeedsHelpWithFan | <ubutom> I have tried that. The bios doesn't seem to have any fan options T.T | 11:09 |
| NeedsHelpWithFan | <ubutom> does my sensors output look correct? I don't see any fans on it at all | 11:10 |
| asyraff | ? | 11:10 |
| psycho_oreos | asyraff: you will need to open up terminal and then type in: `dmesg| tail -20' (without quotes) and copy and paste the output from the terminal into websites like pastebin.com | 11:10 |
| psycho_oreos | you then paste me the link of the paste you just pasted | 11:10 |
| ubutom | NeedsHelpWithFan, hmm, usually there is some option had one that was like performance and lower settings on a fujitsu siemens thing, sorry don't know much about sensors | 11:10 |
| asyraff | psycho_oreos, done...then? | 11:11 |
| psycho_oreos | asyraff: I need the link of the pasted output, from your address bar | 11:11 |

| === HelloGod is now known as iami | ||
| NeedsHelpWithFan | <ubutom>yes, i have set my processors to be scaled down to power saving instead of 'on demand' is that what you're refering to? | 11:11 |
| ubutom | NeedsHelpWithFan, yeah, there was some similar thing only for the fans in BIOS, but I guess that depends on the model | 11:12 |
| psycho_oreos | asyraff: ubuntu detects it, but its failing to see the USB device as a storage device, how old is the device? | 11:12 |
| tintumon | Dr_Willis, any help? | 11:13 |
| NeedsHelpWithFan | ubutom sigh i've been trying to resolve this temperature issue for weeks now | 11:13 |
| asyraff | psycho_oreos, yup...i get this device last year...still new | 11:13 |
| NeedsHelpWithFan | is there any way I can change the high and critical temperature setting on 'sensors' ? | 11:13 |
| Delphius | BIOS settings | 11:14 |
| ubutom | NeedsHelpWithFan, sorry to hear that, maybe the fans are blocked with dust? | 11:14 |
| Dr_Willis | tintumon: i dont use a cable to teather mine. I use wireless. so you may want to ask in #android | 11:14 |
| psycho_oreos | asyraff: hmm have you subject it to any sort of torture? like through water or slightly bent the USB head? | 11:14 |
| iami | whois ubutom | 11:14 |
| ubutom | whois iami | 11:15 |
| asyraff | psycho_oreos, nope...i have tried it with my other pendrives too | 11:15 |
| NeedsHelpWithFan | ubutom thats actually one avenue i haven't checked. i'll open her up and check tomorrow after i buy a can of compressed air. I just find it weird why it overheats in ubuntu whilst in win2k server it doesn't. And they're running almost identical amount of software. | 11:15 |
| psycho_oreos | asyraff: what about other USB ports on the machine? | 11:15 |
| asyraff | psycho_oreos, still same...O_o | 11:16 |
| NeedsHelpWithFan | asyraff have u tried powering off and on the device? | 11:16 |
| NeedsHelpWithFan | asyraff also, have u tried it on a windows machine? | 11:16 |
| tintumon | Dr_Willis, is it hotspot? | 11:16 |
| asyraff | NeedsHelpWithFan, if i turn off, it will detect my usb but if possible i dont want to restart my pc | 11:17 |
| asyraff | NeedsHelpWithFan, yup...in windows machine...it detects my pendrive | 11:17 |
| ubutom | NeedsHelpWithFan, yep, that sounds like windows is doing something different. Laptops are a bit tricky because every manufacturer has some other acpi thing going on, that's also the reason why people need to turn off certain things for livecds to work very often | 11:18 |
| NeedsHelpWithFan | asyraff have you checked if it is mounted on /media/? | 11:18 |
| Dr_Willis | tintumon: yes. thats how i use my phone. as a wireless adhoc network hotspot. | 11:18 |
| asyraff | NeedsHelpWithFan, hurm...its empty... | 11:18 |
| NeedsHelpWithFan | ubuntom yeah, i've been reading the acpi stuff and tryhing a whole bunch of diff things. | 11:19 |
| NeedsHelpWithFan | ubuntom i might try installing envyNG to see if it'll detect my graphic card's fan | 11:19 |
| tintumon | Dr_Willis, bt no adhoc option is available 4 me | 11:19 |
| TopGear | Whenever I plugin my headset, my speakers still continue playing the music. Is there a way to mute them when my headset is plugged it? | 11:20 |
| NeedsHelpWithFan | asyraff check System->Administration->Disk Utility | 11:20 |
| NeedsHelpWithFan | asyraff if your pendrive is there it should show up on the left pane | 11:20 |
| qdii | hey | 11:20 |
| qdii | how can I active metacity ON BOOT on ubuntu 10.10 | 11:21 |
| NeedsHelpWithFan | asyraff click on the disk to see if it is mounted, it may be detected but if it is not mounted you can't really access it or see it. | 11:21 |
| asyraff | NeedsHelpWithFan, only hard disk and cd drive... | 11:21 |

| oCean | asyraff: then, that's it | 11:28 |
| asyraff | psycho_oreos, acpi?? | 11:28 |
| psycho_oreos | asyraff: you could try sudo modprobe usb_storage | 11:28 |

| Person123 | Okay, so I download Ubuntu to my Windows 7 laptop via Wubi. It downloaded perfectly fine, I selected the recommended options and then restarted my laptop. I then selected Ubuntu from the list of operating systems to use. It went to a black screen with white letters for a few seconds, then it went to a another black screen with white lettering and just stayed there. It appeared to be saying something about kernel, external device, c | 11:40 |
| muhmmad | hello | 11:40 |
| dgx | Yes, I've tried right clicking -> kill,end, stop process. Not working. | 11:40 |
| Person123 | What should I do? | 11:41 |
| WaltherFI | !wubi | 11:41 |
| ubottu | Wubi is an Ubuntu installer for Windows users that allows you to install and uninstall Ubuntu like a Windows application, in a simple and safe way. http://wubi-installer.org/support.php and https://wiki.ubuntu.com/WubiGuide for troubleshooting. Please file bugs at http://launchpad.net/wubi/+filebug. For Ubuntu Maverick/10.10 http://releases.ubuntu.com/maverick/wubi.exe | 11:41 |
| Dr_Willis | mizahi_64: that can be a problem depending on the drivefs/hardware. For wireless - it may not be an issue.. but for some video setups. it can be a real pain | 11:41 |
| dgx | How can I see all processes in the terminal? | 11:42 |
| mizahi_64 | Dr_Willis: :( i am thinking to install many packages except graphic cards drivers... ? | 11:42 |
| almoxarife | Person123: you lost grub? | 11:42 |
| WaltherFI | dgx: for example command: top | 11:42 |
| WaltherFI | almoxarife: wubi | 11:42 |
| dgx | And also did sudo killall transmission. Still there :) | 11:43 |
| Person123 | almoxarife, not sure what u mean... | 11:43 |
| almoxarife | WaltherFI: a wubi install takes you to grub | 11:43 |
| Person123 | ok bye | 11:44 |
| mizahi_64 | Dr_Willis: i really need many driver packages ... | 11:44 |
| WaltherFI | almoxarife: also, he/she said that it shows the selection, but goes black | 11:44 |
| Dr_Willis | mizahi_64: i tend to set up a flash drive for each pc that needs special drivers.. but thats just for nvidia drivers mainly here. | 11:44 |
| Dr_Willis | mizahi_64: so its not a big issue. | 11:44 |
| mizahi_64 | Dr_Willis: i don't have so many usb s to install ubuntu for each one :) | 11:45 |
| mizahi_64 | Dr_Willis: but i am think to install many new drivers except nvdia and ati (i mean graphic cards)... | 11:46 |
| mizahi_64 | Dr_Willis: but i don't know how to install them from synaptic... | 11:46 |
| jophish | Howdy all! | 11:46 |

| jophish | I can suspend my laptop with no problem with ubuntu, suspending to disk and to ram works fine. However I'm using Kubuntu at the moment, and I've found that I can't suspend with kubuntu | 11:47 |
| sacarlson | mizahi_64: most drivers are a part of the kernel or are compiled as modules into it. | 11:47 |
| mizahi_64 | sacarlson: so ? | 11:48 |
| nhck | How do I play music with mpd/mpc ? | 11:48 |
| === NG_ is now known as ng_ | ||
| mizahi_64 | sacarlson: hen i use usb on many hardwares i faced problem about drivers.. so i need them... | 11:48 |
| sacarlson | mizahi_64: so most drivers you already have if you have the latiest kernel | 11:48 |
| mizahi_64 | sacarlson: i know. but everytime when i start on a new hardware, ubuntu asks me to isntall drivers... | 11:49 |
| sacarlson | mizahi_64: I think you should create a kernel that includes every propriatary driver now avalable | 11:49 |
| mizahi_64 | sacarlson: so i can install all of them now.. | 11:50 |
| mizahi_64 | sacarlson: yeap... but how ? | 11:50 |
| sacarlson | mizahi_64: well to start you need a list of devices you plan to support then collect all the source from eather the chip developer or others groups that support them | 11:51 |
| DasEi | mizahi_64: on your first install, you choose if you want a generic or custom installation, then exept 3rd party drivers it should work (seen by drivers), but maybe not config | 11:51 |
| sacarlson | mizahi_64: I forgot not all will be source some will be binary so they will only be usable with a subset of kernel so you might find some propriatary won't play together | 11:53 |
| DasEi | mizahi_64: just do a full apt-get update/grade, install the headers, too | 11:53 |
| DasEi | !headers | 11:53 |
| ubottu | To install the Linux (kernel) headers, open a terminal and: sudo apt-get install linux-headers-$(uname -r) To install headers for libraries, you need the accompanying -dev packages | 11:53 |

| pedronveloso | I've installed a beta ppa repo for KDE, but I now want to go back to the stable one. I've delete the extra ppa repo, but now how do I use apt-get to fetch the old packages and replace the ones I installed? | 12:44 |
| Dr_Willis | pedronveloso: there is a ppa-purge tool that does that. I recall ubuntu-tweak has a front end to ppapurge also. | 12:44 |
| DasEi | nyRednek: hal is deprechiated, but I'd rather try by a launcher or a little script invoked by a key-combination, seems less assle | 12:45 |
| Dr_Willis | error21: using FF 3.6.13 here it seems | 12:45 |
| jrib | nyRednek: you could still use the tool if it exists. In any case xorg.conf probably won't work (but you can try) since input devices seem to be configured elsewhere now. Did you try DasEi's suggestion? If the curses interface doesn't allow you to set your XkbOptions, you can certainly edit /etc/default/console-setup and add them that way | 12:45 |
| nyRednek | DasEi: is hal still used by X in lucid? | 12:45 |
| pedronveloso | Dr_Willis: ubuntu tweak doesn't work very well on Kubuntu, but I'll investigate that ppapurge one | 12:45 |
| DasEi | angieanni: looks like your profiles directory is messed then, purge und reinstall firefox | 12:46 |
| Dr_Willis | pedronveloso: ive had no issues with ubuntu-tweak on kubuntu - of course half its settings are gnome specific.. but the ppa purge and other features still work | 12:46 |
| DasEi | nyRednek: as an dead-end , so rather no | 12:46 |

| benc | how can I include a conf file when creating a deb package with debhelper? | 12:47 |
| nyRednek | jrib: the problem with his suggestion, and i did try it, it must be run each time you start typing in another keymap, and i change keymaps in the middle of editing documents | 12:47 |
| pedronveloso | Dr_Willis: humm ok, I'll give it a try | 12:47 |
| DasEi | nyRednek: first try if you find your setting in console-setup at all | 12:47 |
| DasEi | settings* | 12:47 |
| nyRednek | DasEi: i found the setting, the problem came when i tried to switch layouts...had to run it again | 12:47 |

| jrib | nyRednek: no, I'm saying you need to set XkbOptions to whatever it is you want... like "grp:shift_toggle" or whatever | 12:48 |
| dgx | How do you switch between Workspaces, with the keyboard? | 12:48 |
| DasEi | nyRednek: you will also have to reload that demon, if you do in the middle of a document | 12:48 |
| jrib | nyRednek: you're basically doing what you would do in xorg.conf but using console-setup... | 12:48 |

| nawk | does anyone know what i'm saying? | 12:52 |
| sacarlson | dgx: oh ya workspaces screens sorry thought you wanted active windows | 12:52 |
| jrib | nyRednek: you just edit /etc/default/console-setup . I don't recall if you have to run something afterwards for the settings to be refreshed or if it happens automatically at boot time (you'll have to read its documentation or just try)( | 12:52 |

| nyRednek | v0n: and by patch, is that a .gz file? | 13:11 |
| jrib | v0n: « man patch » is actually not a bad read (seriously). You need to read about the -p switch in particular. Basic usage is « patch -pN < file.patch ». But as sacarlson says, what exactly do you want to do? | 13:11 |
| nyRednek | if it is, you need to zcat into a patch command on the source | 13:11 |

| ubottu | Mahjongg: Ubuntu, like any other Linux distribution, has firewall capabilities built-in. The firewall is managed using the 'ufw' command - see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UFW | An alternative to ufw is the 'iptables' command - See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/IptablesHowTo | GUI frontends such as Firestarter/Gufw (Gnome) or Guarddog (KDE) also exist. | 13:18 |

| v0n | jrib, Yep, obviously it isn't maintain anymore so they decided to remove it from Ubuntu repositories... | 13:21 |
| nyRednek | DasEi: i think i'm gonna need to start gnome-settings-daemon in the init of fvwm | 13:21 |

| nhck | How do I play music with mpd using mpc? | 13:22 |

| saad_ | sacarlson: http://localhost/phpmyadmin/index.php | 13:22 |
| jrib | v0n: I see. Personally, why not just use cat? And lynx like suggested in the debian bug report for its removal? If you still want to use dog and apply the patch just follow what I first said to you | 13:23 |
| sacarlson | saad_: that's is correct and that fails? so let me see the config files in apache | 13:23 |
| saad_ | sacarlson: if the address was wrong, the browser would show 404 not found page, not try to downlaod it | 13:23 |

| v0n | jrib, with something like `patch -p1 < ../dog_1.7-8.diff' I get a debian/ directory in the source. After that I thing I should use the dpatch tool. Right? | 13:29 |
| jrib | v0n: no :/ either you incorporate the patch into the debian package (using for example dpatch) and then the patch gets automatically applied when you build the package or you just patch the source code directly yourself using patch and build the package | 13:30 |
| neramarea | chi mi aiuta a tornare alla 0.8.4 di compiz? | 13:31 |

| nyRednek | daedra: what is getting me, atm, the X version of the three finger salute doesn't work on ubuntu(could configure it, i'm sure) | 13:47 |
| akhyariz | joe1356: everything worked well, the problem is when i using headphones | 13:47 |
| jrib | v0n: I don't know what you mean by "all patches". I'm also a bit confused as to what you are trying to accomplish :) | 13:47 |
| joe1356 | akhyariz: i'm no expert but I would guess it has something to do with the drivers. they should recognize your headphones and turn the speakers off.... did you google the issue? | 13:47 |
| jrib | v0n: do you just want d0g 1.7.8? | 13:47 |
| nyRednek | joe1356: on an eeepc, it doesn't always...muting the speakers manually is often required | 13:48 |
| daedra | nyRednek: I'm familiar with it being defined in /etc/initrd or somewhere | 13:48 |
| v0n | jrib, lol ok, by "all matches" I mean all patches in debian/ folder. I'm trying to push the last version of the dog source code somewhere to make it easily available for everyone wants to use it. | 13:48 |
| daedra | lemme look | 13:48 |
| snarkster | does anyone know if jockey will install the 64bit version of video drivers or just 32bit?? | 13:48 |
| nyRednek | daedra: yeah... | 13:49 |
| jrib | v0n: depends on the patch system | 13:49 |
| nyRednek | daedra: i just don't want to fix it right now | 13:49 |
| _AV_ | May you recommend me a good video maker? | 13:49 |
| akhyariz | joe1356: yes, i've google this. i've installed linux-alsa-driver but it doesn't work | 13:49 |
| jon_athon | how do I flush dns? | 13:49 |
| nyRednek | daedra: i'm used to if something is sucking memory, to ctrl+alt+bksp out of x and log back in(uses tmux to keep irssi, pine, and centerim running even if terminal lost) | 13:49 |
| jrib | v0n: where are you getting the last version of the dog source code from? Where did you get the patch? | 13:50 |
| joe1356 | akhyariz: what about the specific drivers for your sound card? | 13:50 |
| v0n | jrib, http://packages.ubuntu.com/source/hardy/dog | 13:50 |
| akhyariz | joe1356: akhyariz@m-ice:~$ lspci | grep Audio | 13:50 |

| jrib | v0n: just grab the source package and put it in your ppa then | 13:50 |
| nyRednek | jon_athon: dhcpcd will flush your current dns and re-read from defined nameservers | 13:50 |
| jon_athon | nyRednek, thanks | 13:51 |
| nyRednek | as well as flush your ip and ask for a new one from your dhcp server | 13:51 |
| daedra | nyRednek: or just htop to look at what is sucking memory, and SIGTERM it | 13:51 |
| nyRednek | daedra: i'm talking about when x is stuck in a loop, and not responding | 13:51 |
| daedra | (ask it to die nicely) | 13:51 |
| angieanni | nyRednek: 14:25:15) DasEi: angieanni: sudo init 1 , that brings you to a window :dpkg,repair broken packages, when done, cosse netroot, enter reboot, I'm getting out of ideas ..........innit 1 ..and black and then alt+f1 and then restart | 13:51 |
| jon_athon | I should remember to research before asking, I also found this... /etc/init.d/nscd restart | 13:51 |
| akhyariz | joe1356: when i connected headphones and restart my laptop, it works well. but if i disconnect it, internal speakers still muted | 13:52 |
| v0n | jrib, I won't use a ppa because of others plateforms or systems like Arch (not debian-based plateforms) | 13:52 |
| hihihi100 | need help with zenmap, i cannot access it as root, i installed via software center | 13:53 |
| nyRednek | iow, he was running out of ideas on how to fix your issue, and i haven't been following, so i don't know exactly what's going on | 13:53 |
| daedra | nyRednek: weird. /etc/inittab doesn't EXIST on Ubuntu 10.10 | 13:53 |
| jrib | v0n: but then they can't use a .deb anyway | 13:53 |
| gobbe | deegee: it shouldn't be either | 13:53 |
| nyRednek | daedra: that *is* weird | 13:53 |
| gobbe | deegee: sorry, wrong guy | 13:53 |
| jrib | v0n: so you just want the source code for dog without any packaging info? That's the orig.tar.gz you had | 13:53 |
| daedra | gobbe: I know | 13:53 |
| daedra | but coming from a pretty standard file system layout on FreeBSD this is weird for me | 13:54 |
| gobbe | ok :) | 13:54 |
| jrib | v0n: oh I see. You want the orig.tar.gz with the debian patches applied? | 13:54 |
| nyRednek | daedra: yeah, i just came here from slack | 13:54 |
| daedra | Arch also had stuff in similar places | 13:54 |
| jrib | !upstart | daedra | 13:54 |
| ubottu | daedra: Upstart is meant to replace the old Sys V Init system with an event-driven init model. For more information please see: http://upstart.ubuntu.com/ | 13:54 |
| nyRednek | daedra: whose filesystem is similar to a bsd one(slack uses hybrid bsd and sysv inits) | 13:54 |
| joe1356 | akhyariz: damn. it says your card is "erratic" in the ubuntu bug report: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/513069 | 13:55 |
| daedra | I just got a new desktop and it's revision week. Don't yet have the time to fiddle with FreeBSD on it - so I'm temporarily using Ubuntu | 13:55 |
| geegeegee | How do i edit the default session for a single use rwithout setting the default one for all the users? | 13:55 |
| daedra | hardware detection was a dream come true :) | 13:56 |
| nyRednek | daedra: i don't have the power to compile stuff over portage, so i needed a distro with a good repo of binary packages | 13:56 |
| jrib | geegeegee: choose it at the gdm login screen. It should remember your last choice | 13:56 |
| akhyariz | joe1356: oh, my *lucky* | 13:56 |
| nyRednek | s/portage/ports/ | 13:56 |
| geegeegee | jrib, ok thanks | 13:56 |
| joe1356 | akhyariz: I'd say you're screwed till they fix it. | 13:56 |
| nyRednek | nor over pkgsrc(prefers netbsd over freebsd) | 13:56 |
| daedra | nyRednek: Arch has a good binary repos | 13:56 |
| daedra | -a | 13:57 |
| nyRednek | daedra: i had slack and ubuntu cd's sitting around...was on slack, picked up ubuntu and immediately threw out the default interface | 13:57 |
| nyRednek | daedra: networkmanager died on my altar | 13:57 |
| akhyariz | joe1356: i see, my *lucky* for negative meaning | 13:57 |
| joe1356 | akhyariz: yes I agree | 13:57 |
| nyRednek | daedra: and yes, i know that arch is roughly slack-based | 13:58 |
| akhyariz | joe1356: thanks joe, finally i found the answer | 13:58 |
| daedra | altar? | 13:59 |
| v0n | jrib, Yes, just in order to make available the last version of dog (I guess the 1.7.8 patch adds some fixtures) for anyone. If there's a simplest way to install it for debian users after fetching the source I'll push, like using debuild or whatever, it'd be great. Else, others will use the old school version, that is to say getting the source, make && make install :) | 13:59 |
| nyRednek | daedra: in other words, i sacrificed it to the gods of my own sensibilities | 13:59 |
| joe1356 | akhyariz: sorry for you fate. seems like this bug has been around since 1 year and no fix! | 13:59 |
| jrib | v0n: then get the orig.tar.gz and apply the patches that are in the debian directory | 14:00 |
| jrib | v0n: erm, the debian directory that's in the complete source package | 14:00 |
| joe1356 | does anyone know of a wpa authentication daemon for wireless access points? | 14:00 |
| geegeegee | What is that codec pack for linux that is good for slow hardware? | 14:00 |
| akhyariz | joe1356: yeah, thank you very much for this information. | 14:01 |
| induz | I am using Dell keyboard on Lucid ..How can i know what model is my keyboard...caz on GoldenDict my Meta key is not working/ | 14:01 |
| v0n | jrib, does this debian/ directory patches will make the source code usable only for debian users? Or the `make && make install' alternative will work as well? | 14:01 |
| jrib | v0n: they're patches for the original source code. You can read them, they're likely very small | 14:02 |
| joe1356 | akhyariz: i can only recommend you post on that forum, that way they know more people are having problems | 14:02 |

| FxIII | hi all | 14:07 |
| JZandi | hi | 14:07 |
| jon_athon | SwedeMike, I came from a windows environment! :) | 14:07 |
| FxIII | i'm tring to recover from a power fail when distupgrading | 14:07 |
| notreve | Any c# or c++ programmer here? :) | 14:07 |
| SwedeMike | jon_athon: windows doesn't have a dns cache either as far as I know. | 14:07 |
| joe1356 | akhyariz: I couldn't tell :) I'm all for activism. Its how things get changed. | 14:07 |
| JZandi | yes | 14:07 |

| jon_athon | SwedeMike, Yea, it does DNS caching. You can clear it by ipconfig /flushdns and there is a way to view it but I forget at the moment | 14:08 |
| FxIII | is it usefull to su to the user on the previous partition before to run sudo apt-get install -f ? | 14:08 |
| SwedeMike | jon_athon: yeah, I found that as well, it even caches negative reponses, which is broken. | 14:09 |
| === dashavoo_ is now known as dashavoo | ||
| jon_athon | SwedeMike, Does it store it as a negative response? I just found ipconfig /displaydns | 14:09 |
| SwedeMike | jon_athon: if you want this in ubuntu you install a local caching resolver. | 14:09 |
| jrib | FxIII: nope | 14:09 |

| asyraff | help me...my mouse is not working although it is detected...why?? | 14:38 |
| jrib | FxIII: it's easier if you just pastebin the command and full output | 14:38 |

| jrib | FxIII: what language are they in? | 14:38 |
| FxIII | jrib: italian | 14:38 |
| jrib | FxIII: prefix your commands with LANGUAGE=C LANG=C | 14:38 |
| FxIII | export LANGUAGE[...]? | 14:39 |
| FxIII | ok | 14:39 |
| yeats | FxIII: paste them anyway... I think we can probably figure it out | 14:39 |
| jrib | FxIII: for example: sudo LANGUAGE=C LANG=C dpkg --configure -a | 14:39 |
| yeats | FxIII: <-- took Italian in college ;-) | 14:39 |
| nyRednek | hmmm...does screen support bidi? | 14:39 |
| FxIII | grazie yeats but the exporting LANGUAGE and LANG works | 14:40 |
| yeats | FxIII: good | 14:40 |

| trance | top i can deal without but left and right i've grown rather used to | 14:51 |

| Fizix | Slimcea_boy: I've added the PATH to bashrc (both in /home/user and /root). When I'm in the terminal, I can type 'adb' and it works, but when I type 'sudo adb' it does not find the command. | 15:05 |
| trancegeek_ | kartem, not really why do you ask? | 15:06 |

| yeats | Fizix: what Slimcea_boy suggests will probably work | 15:07 |

| Fizix | Slimcea_boy & yeats: Thank you. As I've added the PATH to /root/.bashrc, I'd expect it would find it. Was just trying to find a way to do it where I didn't have to be root user but instead use the sudo command | 15:09 |
| Slimcea_boy | mun_: I don't think so. It is saying that the partitions are /overlapping/ (ie one ends at block 400, say, but the next partition is trying to start at block 300) | 15:09 |

| Slimcea_boy | mun_: right - did you update the partition table afterwards? (one more reason to use gparted - it will do so automatically) | 15:14 |
| Slimcea_boy | mun_: OTOH, I might be full of shit and your partition table is fine :) | 15:15 |
| Slimcea_boy | fireboy: then you will mount the partition at / | 15:15 |

| [bean] | trancegeek_: i tried. i havent done it myself as i dont need the feature, so i wouldnt know what to tell you | 15:17 |

| [bean] | trancegeek_: i fully understand what you mean by snap. you want the windows 7 aero snap | 15:21 |
| Slimcea_boy | trancegeek_: I'm not aware of anything that does that - perhaps you'd like to author a compiz plugin :) | 15:21 |
| [bean] | but unless you use kde or config compiz right its not going to happen | 15:21 |
| drahx_ | to share a couple hard drives, printer and install a PS3 media server | 15:21 |

| gobbe | g11992: but wine is related to several other packages also, so it would be easier to install it from linux | 15:25 |
| trancegeek_ | and there is only one alternative, which is not going to work for my needs | 15:25 |
| [bean] | did you replace the line in the left script they gave and try it? | 15:25 |

| luxurymode | Slimcea_boy: right. thats what i thought. thanks a lot for your help. gonna give it a shot | 15:25 |

| [bean] | trancegeek_: wether or not the right script works, did you try testing that left script with the fix? | 15:26 |
| trancegeek_ | doesn't that require hotkeys? | 15:26 |
| [bean] | if it works perhaps find what was changed and set it for right script | 15:26 |
| compdoc | windows 7 'snap' feature really sucks, imo | 15:26 |
| trancegeek_ | it doesn't suck compdoc | 15:26 |
| trancegeek_ | imo | 15:26 |
| trancegeek_ | it just takes a bit of getting used to | 15:26 |
| compdoc | I gets in the way - it wants to snap when all I want to do is move a window out of the way | 15:27 |
| trancegeek_ | well you can set delays for that though | 15:27 |
| trancegeek_ | :P | 15:27 |
| compdoc | when I pull a windw to one side, I have to pause and hold it there so that windows doesnt grab it an put it where it wants | 15:28 |
| [bean] | you can set the edginess of compiz | 15:28 |
| [bean] | so that its not like that | 15:28 |

| lucas8880 | hey | 15:29 |
| greenIT | hi, anyone knows how to emulate a parallelport in ubuntu? | 15:29 |
| trancegeek_ | compiz is an epic fail imo, 900 "features" that belong in windows and not a single one that belongs in linux | 15:29 |
| trancegeek_ | but that's off topic | 15:29 |
| [bean] | personally if i had the snap enabled i would only have it enabled by keyboard keys not by dragging windows | 15:29 |
| [bean] | meta+ left and right | 15:30 |
| trancegeek_ | i could deal with keyboard shortcuts even tbh, however i truly dislike keyboard shortcuts, 90% of what i do is done by mouse | 15:30 |
| greenIT | !parallelport | 15:30 |
| [bean] | wouldnt it be simple to hit winkey + left | 15:30 |
| [bean] | and it snaps to left | 15:30 |
| trancegeek_ | it would be simple, yes | 15:30 |
| trancegeek_ | but it's more... can't think of the word for it, but dragging left just works a bit better | 15:31 |
| trancegeek_ | you can do that in windows too btw, it helps for those with dual screens | 15:31 |

| Slimcea_boy | I'm stuck on the gross fallback theme | 15:31 |

| BluesKaj | trancegeek_, in the chrome addressbar , about:plugins , check whether flash is enabled | 15:49 |

| ChipDSnow | I want to fully automate my bittorrent client, and was wondering if there were anything like that available for Ubuntu? I would like to have a program (or script) that would automatically start the next file in queue after one has finished downloading. | 16:52 |
| em | it is okay for Ubuntu to replace that with something else but it should work just as well and someone should know how. | 16:53 |

| bastidrazor | dusf: does it have an entry in /etc/init.d/ ?? is tor in there? | 17:28 |
| botcity | sitalkas: there is a package called sftp you can use ! you'l have to use it in a separate terminal if your allready using ssh i think? | 17:28 |
| Nightlight | but in other-sources, all these maverick sources are checked | 17:28 |
| sacarlson | Nightlight: sounds like you had maverick repostiries included before upgrade? | 17:29 |
| Guest89020 | bazhang: you here? | 17:29 |
| sitalkas | botcity: i use filezila as an sftp client and does this job great. is there a difference between this and ssh? | 17:29 |
| Nightlight | But yes, the exact error says "Can't install ubuntu-desktop. It was impossible to install a required package. Please report this as a bug" | 17:29 |
| ubuntusage | Nightlight: check /etc/apt/sources.list and see whether it has entries for Marverik | 17:30 |
| sacarlson | Nightlight: if your at the point of upgrade to maveric why are the repositoies unchecked? | 17:30 |
| Nightlight | I guess that's what it looks like. I wonder how it happened. Any way to clean this and then update to 10.10? The distro update manager says 10.10 is availible | 17:30 |
| Nightlight | I was under the impression I was running lucid because of that | 17:30 |

| ubuntusage | Nightlight: maybe you could install it and try again? I am unsure of this | 17:58 |
| Bushman | lol | 17:58 |
| yeats | Craigwell: your best bet is to back up your /home and /etc directories to something external (and external to the new drive) so that you can reinstall and move everything (or important things) back over | 17:58 |
| needlez | el_copter: that should put you into root mode then type those commands and you should be good | 17:58 |
| Nightlight | ubuntusage: Yeah, that's what I am trying. Apparently I just installed ubuntu-desktop manually and now I am trying the upgrade | 17:58 |
| botcity | JNZ: you can set up your own shorcuts anything you like ! | 17:58 |
| Craigwell | yeats: i have partitions for / and /home, | 17:58 |

| el_copter | o0 .. checking folder... | 17:59 |
| yeats | Craigwell: on the new drive? | 17:59 |

| jsec | Hi all. I've got an interesting issue. I experimented with the fglrx driver for my MSI netbook, but decided against it and removed the driver.

Any ideas how I can get a wallpaper bac | 17:59 |

| Craigwell | which the system can boot from | 17:59 |
| ubuntusage | lxterminal: maybe from profiles? | 17:59 |

| needlez | el_copter: if the program installed you can run it from terminal | 18:00 |
| Bushman | needlez: yea, that's not a problem... well, atleast not our problem lol | 18:00 |
| yeats | Craigwell: probably not... make sure all of your /home and /etc data are saved in your new /home partition, and tell the new ubuntu to use the partition as /home and NOT to format it | 18:00 |

| Craigwell | yeats: my failing drive has the following partitions: sda1 is an NTFS partition I use for virtualbox (XP), sda2 is my 10.04 / partition. sda3 is my /home partition. sda4 is an extended "container for logical paritions", within which is sda5 which is a FAT32 partition common to both Ubuntu and my virtualbox XP. | 18:08 |
| Bushman | IdleOne: how bout USB? | 18:08 |
| Bushman | IdleOne: anyway... | 18:08 |
| norm_ | if you are willing I have a dopey ??? (not computer smart) | 18:08 |
| magicianlord | Roasted_: video playback on netbooks is limited primarily by tghe weak atom cpu | 18:08 |
| erUSUL | Ascavasaion: ask in a freebsd channel | 18:08 |
| Craigwell | also in there is sda6, my swap | 18:08 |
| Bushman | IdleOne: i have a bluetooth mouse and since i've started to use it the bluetooth dongle dies on me every few seconds/minutes. here's the last few lines of dmesg: http://bushman.pastebin.com/uQh5nN1q | 18:08 |
| BiCoBoZ | magicianlord, for games, the fusion is a good option? | 18:08 |
| Roasted_ | my proc is barely moving magicianlord | 18:08 |
| mlmg317-himts | OK. So I just upgraded to Natty Narwhal. Now - when I try to run "sudo freshclam" in Terminal - it tells me freshclam.log is locked by another process - and that there is a problem with the internal logger. How do I fix this? | 18:08 |
| Nightlight | ubuntusage: Alright I did that, time to try again :T | 18:08 |
| aeon-ltd | !ubuntu+1 | mlmg317-himts | 18:09 |
| ubottu | mlmg317-himts: Natty Narwhal is the codename for Ubuntu 11.04 - Natty is NOT released and is NOT stable - Discussion and support only in #ubuntu+1 | 18:09 |
| Ascavasaion | erUSUL: #freebsd is invite only. | 18:09 |
| norm_ | anyone able to tell me where my windows programs went when i installed ubuntu? | 18:09 |
| magicianlord | BiCoBoZ: for older games and some new one. it's better than nvidia's integrated graphcis, but if you want real speed, you still need a separate video card. i dont need morethan basic acceleration for linux though | 18:09 |
| BiCoBoZ | magicianlord, for games, the fusion is a good option? | 18:09 |
| yeats | Craigwell: it would probably be easier for you to go ahead and install ubuntu on the new drive, then move everything over from there | 18:09 |
| schnuffle | Ascavasaion: you can create xorg.con with Xorg -config | 18:09 |
| aeon-ltd | norm_: did you dualboot or use wubi? | 18:09 |
| erUSUL | Ascavasaion: maybe you need to be registered ask in #freenode. anyway we can not help with freebsd issues here | 18:09 |
| yeats | Craigwell: rather than trying to figure out which partition is which | 18:09 |
| ubuntusage | norm_: are u sure u installed ubuntu is installed on a separete partition ;) | 18:09 |
| plastical | i mount smb resource with skript //192.168.1.1/part0 /media/smb -o guest,uid=1000,gid=1000,rw,iocharset=utf8,directio,mapchars,sec=none. It mounts ok but after coping file error Permission denied(13) occurs, but!! file is uploaded ok!!! Help pls!! How to solve this strange thing??! | 18:09 |
| norm_ | i thats too clever for me, i downloaded to disc then installed from that | 18:09 |
| JNZ | botcity: I thought so too :) | 18:10 |
| bluezone | hummmm, does anyone recall how to modify grub? i need to get it to realize i have another os on this drive... | 18:10 |
| Craigwell | yeats: i have this arrangement to accomodate simply accounting for my business, as well as itunes for my iphone. much of it is business related. | 18:10 |
| Ascavasaion | schnuffle: It does not work, I cnanot find the xorg.conf.new file. | 18:10 |
| IanWizard | hey, long time no see. | 18:10 |
| norm_ | nope not certain of anything lol, but i need my email etc | 18:10 |
| mlmg317-himts | ubottu: OK - so I how do I revert back to the Maverick Meerkat? | 18:10 |
| ubottu | Error: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) | 18:10 |
| Ascavasaion | erUSUL: thanks for being so helpful. | 18:10 |
| IdleOne | Bushman: like I said not familiar with bluetooth but make sure it is plugged in properly and that it isn't getting loose somehow to start with. besides that I really don't know what else to suggest. | 18:10 |
| botcity | Roasted: depends whats in your netbook hardware wise! i use 10.10 and no problem with 720p | 18:10 |
| bluezone | lol | 18:10 |
| yeats | Craigwell: the data is what matters - the partitioning scheme can be recreated on the new drive | 18:10 |
| erUSUL | Ascavasaion: X tells you where it saved the xorg.conf file when it ends ( home forlder of the user that run it ) | 18:10 |
| Craigwell | yeats: do you think there is a better way to achieve the same results with a new drive, or simply duplicate partition structure on new drivce? | 18:10 |
| xangua | mlmg317-himts: full reinstall | 18:10 |
| IanWizard | I was talking to FloodBot1 apparently... | 18:11 |
| Bushman | IdleOne: well, 20 years in computers exclude me from "maybe something's lose" group | 18:11 |
| yeats | Craigwell: if you like the way you have it now, just recreate the same scheme | 18:11 |
| bluezone | nice | 18:11 |
| norm_ | all i need is my email and my documents | 18:11 |
| Roasted_ | magicianlord, it may just be VLC | 18:11 |
| Roasted_ | magicianlord, movie player is playing thw AVIs with zero issue...... | 18:11 |
| mlmg317-himts | xangua: Oh man - that is not what I wanted to hear ... | 18:11 |
| Roasted_ | sucks, cause I love VLC | 18:11 |
| BiCoBoZ | magicianlord, maybe in the next generation of fusion, they may be stronger | 18:11 |
| Bushman | IdleOne: but thanks for the tip :P | 18:11 |
| aeon-ltd | mlmg317-himts: your going to have to uninstall/reinstall, downgrading is HIGHLY not reccommmended for anyone | 18:11 |
| IdleOne | Bushman: :) | 18:11 |
| IanWizard | I've been told that there's a differance between initrd, initram, and ramdisk. Is this true? | 18:11 |
| IdleOne | !bluetooth | 18:11 |
| ubottu | For instructions on how to set up bluetooth, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BluetoothSetup | 18:11 |
| mlmg317-himts | xangua: But oh well ... maybe I can put up with Natty Narwhal, then. Geez ... | 18:11 |
| Bushman | IdleOne: it's already set up | 18:11 |
| IdleOne | Bushman: see the above link from ubottu, might have some usefull info | 18:12 |
| magicianlord | Roasted_: sometimes vlc has issues on linux. i use it primarily though, regardless, because its's awesome. | 18:12 |
| Bushman | and it does work | 18:12 |
| norm_ | ok, guess I;m beyond help but thanks anyway | 18:12 |
| Bushman | just the USB dongle dies | 18:12 |
| bluezone | hummmm, does anyone recall how to modify grub? i need to get it to realize i have another os on this drive... | 18:12 |
| efix | can someone please help me put GRUB back? Vista erased it... all online tutorials are not working... | 18:12 |
| xangua | norm_: if you say so | 18:12 |
| Roasted_ | magicianlord, I wonder if vlc is just a bit more tempermental to hardware horsepower and processing with lower end computers. | 18:12 |
| IdleOne | Bushman: assuming you tried a different port? | 18:12 |
| Roasted_ | magicianlord, because VLC works fantastic on my desktop | 18:12 |
| xangua | !grub2 | efix | 18:12 |
| ubottu | efix: GRUB2 is the default Ubuntu boot manager since 9.10 (Karmic). Lost GRUB after installing Windows? See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestoreGrub - For more information and troubleshooting for GRUB2 please refer to https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Grub2 | 18:12 |
| Craigwell | yeats: last question, if i use a drive that already has data on it (my backed up FAT32 partition) Ubuntu will leave it alone on install if I tell it to? | 18:12 |
| Roasted_ | magicianlord, but this netbook is far from a quad core with some extra ram | 18:12 |
| Bushman | IdleOne: all 4 of them | 18:12 |
| BlueBomber7 | efix: Did you try grub-install? | 18:12 |
| magicianlord | Roasted_: im not sure. i notice it's also smoother on a less resource intensive linux distro on a netbook | 18:13 |
| yeats | Craigwell: if it is on a separate partition, yes | 18:13 |
| Guest89020 | needlez: ya got a sec? | 18:13 |
| Roasted_ | magicianlord, wait, you notice VLC is smoother on a netbook? | 18:13 |
| magicianlord | i have no issues with vlc 1.1.5 on arch linux, on netbook with 512mb ram and 1.6 ghz atom (original one) | 18:13 |
| magicianlord | Roasted_: smoothe on a distro other than the default gnome ubuntu | 18:13 |
| needlez | Guest89020: yes | 18:14 |
| Roasted_ | magicianlord, I find it hard to believe that the regular ubuntu would be an issue. this thing barely takes up 200mb of ram to run... | 18:14 |
| Craigwell | yeats: ok, i have the right knowledge to proceed! Thank you very much for the help | 18:14 |
| Roasted_ | magicianlord, it might not be puppy, but its far from fat. | 18:14 |
| Guest89020 | can ya pm me i need help | 18:14 |
| Guest89020 | i cant keep up in here | 18:14 |
| aeon-ltd | magicianlord: archlinux is much more barebones than stock ubuntu so its more likely you'd see these huge differences, i noticed the same about flash when i switched | 18:14 |
| magicianlord | Roasted_: might be kernel or other differences | 18:14 |
| magicianlord | aeon-ltd: es | 18:15 |
| magicianlord | yes | 18:15 |
| Roasted_ | magicianlord, ironically I just installed a new kernel, rebooted, and no difference. :P | 18:15 |
| Craigwell | yeats: as for a better back up strategy for the future, anything you might suggest?? i have just been using gparted live cd occasionally to copy partitions to external usb drives | 18:15 |
| magicianlord | Roasted_: depends on kernel | 18:15 |
| magicianlord | 2.6.35 and up seems smoother | 18:15 |
| magicianlord | also, video drivers matter | 18:15 |
| Roasted_ | Im on .35 | 18:15 |
| Nightlight | eh what happened | 18:15 |
| Nightlight | update manager crashed? | 18:15 |
| bluezone | hummmm, does anyone recall how to modify grub? i need to get it to realize i have another os on this drive... | 18:16 |
| yeats | Craigwell: you're welcome | 18:16 |
| Nightlight | ubuntusage: when I run update manager, it says to do a partial upgrade but still gives the option to upgrade to 10.10 | 18:16 |
| ubuntusage | Nightlight: give a try to upgrade to 10.10 ;) | 18:17 |
| Nightlight | ubuntusage: Now I have maverick repos too... I guess this must have happened last time | 18:17 |
| aeon-ltd | bluezone: it should usually autodetect if your using grub2 but if not its grub.cfg | 18:17 |
| * Neglacio loves ubuntu | 18:17 | |
| Neglacio | You can screw it | 18:17 |
| Neglacio | And fix it anyways | 18:17 |
| yeats | Craigwell: I use rsync to copy my /home and /etc to an external drive < rsync -av [original dir] [backup dir] > | 18:17 |
| erUSUL | bluezone: os-prober should notice the new os... tried « sudo update-grub » already ? | 18:17 |
| magicianlord | i use ubuntu 10.10 64-bit gnome on my desktop, and arch on my netbook | 18:17 |

| FrozenFire | erUSUL: Since it's hitting the BusyBox shell, I imagine that the root partition is fine. I'll boot a LiveCD and check each partition, but I think it's probably that some config file got corrupted. | 18:54 |

| FrozenFire | tgp1994: Nope. It actually hits the BB shell within seconds of turning the box on. | 18:55 |
| FrozenFire | Before the screen actually initializes. | 18:55 |
| erUSUL | tgp1994: grep: /etc/linuxmint/info: No such file or directory <<< i guess this error makes the script count the kernel twice | 18:55 |

| tgp1994 | erUSUL: update-grub is a script, right? | 18:56 |
| TNick | I did an install of Ubuntu & it booted without the grub menu options | 18:56 |

| mister_m | aeon-ltd, ah I see. Would it be possible to try KDE or some other DE without installing all the apps that come with it? (I already have the ones that come with gnome) | 18:56 |

| rww | winuux: they moved half of the settings to GConf, which causes fun if you switch to the 'xchat' package instead. Some options are hidden for no good reason, and they made changes to conform to GNOME HIG that don't improve the UI imho. | 19:57 |

| guntbert | Chelsea: you could ask in #ubuntu+1 | 20:42 |
| Chelsea | guntbert, didn't know that existed, thanks. | 20:43 |
| guntbert | Chelsea: :) | 20:43 |
| sam-_- | EagleCZ, any luck with amixer? | 20:43 |
| EagleCZ | sam-_-: no i cant tell you alsamixer output since it returns me that the file or directory does not exist | 20:44 |
| sam-_- | EagleCZ, ok. that is the output then :-) | 20:44 |
| jacquesdupontd | it seems i'm human, that reassure me | 20:44 |
| botcity | jgcampbell300: i think etherape is one of those ! | 20:44 |
| EagleCZ | sam-_-: not very encouraging though :) | 20:44 |
| Aginor | morning | 20:44 |
| jgcampbell300 | ok thanks ill check that out | 20:45 |
| sciguy16 | sam-_-: "linux /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.32-27-generic-pae root=UUID=7077aff3-29d5-4b65-84bf-34360faef3df ro quiet splash" | 20:45 |
| aarcane | gah | 20:45 |
| aarcane | I keep ending up in #ubuntu-unreg | 20:45 |
| sam-_- | EagleCZ, are you sure alsa works with your soundcard? | 20:46 |
| sam-_- | EagleCZ, that is which btw? | 20:46 |
| guntbert | aarcane: now you are in #ubuntu | 20:46 |
| bucky | aarcane, register your nic with /NickServ | 20:46 |
| guntbert | bucky: he did :-)) | 20:47 |
| m4v | aarcane: you should set your client so it identifies before joining any channels perhaps? | 20:47 |
| sam-_- | sciguy16, do you know where your root fs is on? like /dev/sdxX? | 20:47 |
| EagleCZ | sam-_-: No, I'm not sure, since I am a linux user for about 2 hours so I don't even know what alsa is(guessing some audio driver). My soundcard is integrated on P5K-SE motherboard | 20:47 |
| JohnFlux | rww: it's possible. It's very evil of them to do so if so | 20:47 |
| aarcane | guntbert, I end up in both somehow | 20:47 |
| sciguy16 | sam-_-: yes - it's on /dev/sda1 | 20:47 |
| aarcane | bucky, my nick is registered | 20:47 |
| rww | JohnFlux: I just spent the last five-ten minutes trying to figure out their source tree and couldn't; you may want to ask them ;( | 20:48 |
| aarcane | m4v, it does, it's only #ubuntu that's doing this though. | 20:48 |
| bucky | aarcane, listen to guntbert | 20:48 |
| sam-_- | EagleCZ, oh right. alsa is the linux sound architecture | 20:48 |
| rww | aarcane: if you end up in both without doing anything to cause that, your client presumably has both on autojoin. | 20:48 |
| guntbert | aarcane: if too many clients join in a short time, some are forwarded to #ubuntu-unregged | 20:48 |
| ustunozgur | how does one enable framebuffer on 10.04? The only info I have found on google is how to disable it, but I don't seem to have it enabled. fbset gives the output : /dev/fb0 not found | 20:48 |
| aarcane | guntbert, that's probably it then, still annoying :-S | 20:49 |
| rww | aarcane: #ubuntu is rather unusual in our use of #ubuntu-unregged; most channels on freenode aren't large enough or targetted by spam enough to need it. | 20:49 |

| erkan^ | thank you very much, ubottu (-: | 20:49 |
| sam-_- | EagleCZ, try this: modprobe snd_hda_intel model=asus | 20:50 |
| sciguy16 | sam-_-: and grub.cfg has "set root='(hd0,1)'" | 20:50 |
| EagleCZ | sam-_-: Could not read ........ no such file or directory | 20:51 |
| sam-_- | EagleCZ, sudo modprobe snd_hda_intel model=asus | 20:51 |
| sam-_- | sciguy16, y. you may have to change that too | 20:52 |
| EagleCZ | sam-_-: again could not read | 20:52 |
| sam-_- | EagleCZ, hugh? what about: modinfo snd | 20:53 |
| EagleCZ | sam-_-: that returns about 15 lines of description | 20:53 |
| mohd | askm | 20:54 |
| sam-_- | EagleCZ, ah sry. i made a mistake: sudo modprobe snd-hda-intel model=asus | 20:54 |
| sam-_- | EagleCZ, underscore was wrong ;) | 20:54 |
| sciguy16 | sam-_-: change it to what? | 20:54 |
| splitwire | has anybody been able to get pianobar to work? I get the following error: /!\ Cannot open audio device | 20:54 |
| EagleCZ | sam-_-: still no change: could not read | 20:55 |
| phixxor | hello -- is "nmcli" used to connect to wifi in a CLI environment -- and is it installed by default? | 20:55 |
| jrib | splitwire: wfm | 20:55 |
| EagleCZ | sam-_-: WARNING: Could not read '/lib/modules/2.6.35-24-generic-pae/kernel/sound/pci/hda/snd-hda-codec.ko': No such file or directory | 20:55 |
| Neiz | Is there a command in linux similar to check disk in windows? I get multiple I/O errors upon booting up recently | 20:55 |
| jrib | phixxor: I believe so; yes | 20:56 |
| EagleCZ | sam-_-: and then the same message just with FATAL: Could not read | 20:56 |
| sam-_- | sciguy16, that is what you need to find out. in live cd you can do a: sudo fdisk -l /dev/sdx | 20:56 |
| chaos2358 | is there a channel for just general discussion? | 20:56 |
| phixxor | Neiz, there is, it's called fsck, but be careful how you use it | 20:56 |
| jrib | !ot | chaos2358 | 20:56 |
| ubottu | chaos2358: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, for all Ubuntu-related support questions. Please use #ubuntu-offtopic for other topics (though our !guidelines apply there too). Thanks! | 20:56 |
| splitwire | jrib: thanks I think it has to be some sort of setting in a config with alsamixer or something like that | 20:56 |
| Neiz | phixxor: thank you, I will research it | 20:56 |
| jrib | splitwire: do you use pulseaudio? | 20:56 |
| phixxor | jrib, thanks! I'll try loggin in from there :) | 20:56 |
| phixxor | jrib: do you happen to know how to start gdm from the command line? For some reason when I start up from GRUB, i'm taken to a CLI environment | 20:57 |
| sam-_- | EagleCZ, hmm. that is quite strange. seems like the kernel package didn't get unpacked correctly. one sec. i will investigate | 20:57 |
| ActionParsnip | !fsck | Neiz | 20:57 |
| ubottu | Neiz: fsck is the FileSystem ChecKer, which runs automatically when you boot if you didn't shutdown cleanly. Type "man fsck" for information on running it manually. The command "sudo shutdown -F -r now" will force a reboot and a filesystem check; "sudo touch /fastboot" will skip a filesystem check at next reboot | 20:57 |
| jrib | phixxor: sudo service gdm start | 20:57 |
| phixxor | jrib, thanks again! | 20:57 |
| splitwire | jrib: I'm pretty sure yes | 20:58 |
| jjk1989 | Hi, my teacher told me we had to use this program. I went to http://wubi-installer.org/ and downloaded it. But how do I open it, I cant find anything in the startmenu to open it? | 20:58 |
| jrib | jjk1989: you want to install ubuntu using wubi? | 20:58 |
| jjk1989 | I installed it, but nothing on the start-menu to open it | 20:58 |
| jjk1989 | yes, I have installed it | 20:58 |
| jrib | jjk1989: no. I am asking you if you want to install ubuntu using wubi? Is that what you want to do? | 20:59 |
| ActionParsnip | jjk1989: you can use wubi as it installs nicely for windows users but if you do a proper install you will have an easier time trouble shoouting if you get problems | 20:59 |
| jjk1989 | I installed wubi | 20:59 |
| yoyoned | !wubi | 20:59 |
| ubottu | Wubi is an Ubuntu installer for Windows users that allows you to install and uninstall Ubuntu like a Windows application, in a simple and safe way. http://wubi-installer.org/support.php and https://wiki.ubuntu.com/WubiGuide for troubleshooting. Please file bugs at http://launchpad.net/wubi/+filebug. For Ubuntu Maverick/10.10 http://releases.ubuntu.com/maverick/wubi.exe | 20:59 |
| jjk1989 | from here http://wubi-installer.org/ | 20:59 |
| Migaaresno_ | $ chmod 640 * -v -R <--- this commad sets current dir premission to 0000 (octal) and all files/dirs in current dir to 0200. Why? | 20:59 |
| jrib | jjk1989: if you don't tell us what you WANT TO DO, we can't help you do it :/ | 20:59 |
| NickyT289 | Teach me about the GRUB screen, Ubtuntu experts... | 21:00 |
| alberto | Hello, please help me. I've uninstalled xserver and x-org accidentally, and I can't enter in safe mode on Ubuntu 10, I don't know what to do... | 21:00 |
| ActionParsnip | jjk1989: to use it you just double click the file. You can install Ubuntu if you mount the ISO in windows using magicdisk or daemontools. | 21:00 |
| jrib | Migaaresno_: it doesn't | 21:00 |
| yoyoned | !grub|NickyT289 | 21:00 |
| ubottu | NickyT289: grub is the default boot manager for Ubuntu releases before 9.10 (Karmic). Lost GRUB after installing Windows? See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestoreGrub - GRUB how-tos: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto - See !grub2 for Karmic onwards. | 21:00 |
| jjk1989 | It is installed, we are supposed to use it to program in c and fortran | 21:00 |
| jrib | jjk1989: so what's your question? | 21:00 |
| jjk1989 | how do I open it | 21:01 |
| ActionParsnip | Migaaresno_: are you the owner of the files / folders/ | 21:01 |
| NickyT289 | I had an install of Ubuntu WITHOUT GRUB menu upon bootup, & now my install HAS it. | 21:01 |
| jrib | jjk1989: if you've successfully installed ubuntu using wubi, reboot and choose ubuntu | 21:01 |
| ActionParsnip | jjk1989: I suggest you read the wubi guide | 21:01 |
| NickyT289 | The only difference was before I was using version 10.4 | 21:01 |
| NickyT289 | now I | 21:01 |
| NickyT289 | Now I;m using 10.10 | 21:01 |
| jrib | jjk1989: honestly, you should probably just use vbox and run ubuntu as a vm inside windows | 21:01 |
| ActionParsnip | jjk1989: once its installed, you will need to reboot and select ubuntu at boot | 21:01 |
| red2kic | NickyT289: Bug. :) | 21:01 |
| jgcampbell300 | ok ... so i have a 5 year old son that uses windows xp and a woman that knows nothing about computers ... i am looking for a way to use my ubuntu box to remote into his computer to take control of his desk top from time to time to help him ... if i remember correctly when i connect it will kick him off ... is there a way around this ? | 21:01 |
| NickyT289 | New bug? | 21:01 |
| jjk1989 | hm I restarted but it is the same | 21:02 |
| NickyT289 | So 10.4 doesn | 21:02 |
| guntbert | !enter | NickyT289 | 21:02 |
| ubottu | NickyT289: Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation! | 21:02 |
| NickyT289 | 10.4 doesn't have that? | 21:02 |
| jgcampbell300 | I was thinking vnc could connect me to his computer even if its windows is that correct ? | 21:02 |
| red2kic | NickyT289: I experienced this myself. I even filed a report. I should check up on that, hmmm. I got around that by not installing grub automatically. I do it manually and I select the device myself. | 21:02 |
| phixxor | alright -- having problems connecting with nmcli -- will research first before asking questions | 21:02 |
| ActionParsnip | NickyT289: ease up on the enter key dude, you dont have to hit enter after every word | 21:02 |
| Migaaresno_ | Im the owner, on closer inspection in only alters all files and dirs to 0200. | 21:02 |
| g11992 | gobbe: i mount the drive in /dos with fat32 format but while installation, an error message appear that the partition cant be made in this fomat, then i tried xfs format in /dos, even then i cant find the partition. there is no option of ntfs. | 21:02 |
| rez410 | If one were looking to host is own forum, would this be the recomended guide to use or is there something else that anyone would prefer? https://help.ubuntu.com/community/PhpBB2 | 21:03 |
| red2kic | NickyT289: Grub install to the first hard device (/dev/sda) -- and in your case, it read your USB drive as first device. You used USB install method? | 21:03 |
| jrib | Migaaresno_: right? | 21:03 |
| jjk1989 | So I need to get into the c and fortran programming using gnu emacs, and on the course site it says we have to install wubi | 21:03 |
| sam-_- | EagleCZ, can you post a: ls -al /lib/modules/2.6.35-24-generic-pae/kernel/sound/pci/hda/ to pastebin? | 21:03 |
| red2kic | NickyT289: Instead of your hard drive, so that is the problem. Your hard drive should be /dev/sda -- but it ended up as /dev/sdb | 21:03 |
| Migaaresno_ | jrib, your right. | 21:03 |
| danny_ | Hi, I try to restore a gconf backup made by gconf-cleaner because, that program has erase my compiz and docky config's, but the command to restore this dosen't work: | 21:03 |
| danny_ | gconftool-2 –-load=20110116211912.reg | 21:03 |
| danny_ | gconftool-2 –load=20110116211912.reg | 21:03 |
| NickyT289 | Hey red2kic, I'm very new. I don't understand ANY of those terms. | 21:04 |
| EagleCZ | sam-_-: ls: cannot access /lib/modules/2.6.35-24-generic-pae/kernel/sound/pci/hda/ | 21:04 |
| Migaaresno_ | jrib, There is somthing else going on too: chmod 640 * -v -r | 21:04 |
| Migaaresno_ | chmod: kan geen toegang krijgen tot ‘640’: Bestand of map bestaat niet | 21:04 |
| Migaaresno_ | kan modus van ‘640’ niet wijzigen naar 0000 (---------) | 21:04 |
| NickyT289 | Is there any way for me to lose the GRUB screen without a reinstall? | 21:04 |
| sam-_- | EagleCZ, uname -a then | 21:04 |
| red2kic | NickyT289: Ah. Sorry. How did you install Ubuntu? | 21:04 |
| Ericthegr | hey you guys if not here where can I get some stupidly simple java help? | 21:04 |
| sciguy16 | sam-_-: grub.cfg looks like it's pointing to the correct drive and partition and the boot flag is set for it | 21:04 |
| NickyT289 | I installed it from a LIVEUSB, to another USB for permanence. | 21:04 |
| EagleCZ | sam-_-: Linux eaglewatch-pc 2.6.35-24-generic-pae #42-Ubuntu SMP Thu Dec 2 03:21:31 UTC 2010 i686 GNU/Linux | 21:04 |
| guntbert | jjk1989: give me the link to the site please - there must be some misunderstanding | 21:04 |
| Migaaresno_ | jrib, It tries to alter the premission of 640, but thats no file/dir! | 21:04 |
| jrib | Migaaresno_: I'd suggest passing options first, then mode, then files. And use -R for recursive, not -r | 21:05 |
| Ericthegr | I just need help compileing my first class | 21:05 |
| guntbert | EricJ: ask in ##java please | 21:05 |
| Ericthegr | ty | 21:05 |
| danny_ | Anyone can help me? | 21:05 |
| ether-boy | help needed with intalling bluetooth on ubuntu 10.10 .lspci gives "Bus 003 Device 002: ID 0a5c:4500 Broadcom Corp. BCM2046B1 USB 2.0 Hub (part of BCM2046 Bluetooth)" | 21:05 |
| jrib | !helpme | danny_ | 21:05 |
| ubottu | danny_: Avoid following your questions with a trail of "Please, help me", "Can nobody help me?", "I really need this!", and so on. This just contributes to making the channel unreadable. If you are not answered, ask again later; but see also !repeat and !attitude | 21:05 |
| sam-_- | EagleCZ, ok. you need to reinstall the package: linux-image-2.6.35-24-generic-pae | 21:06 |
| ActionParsnip | danny_: i'd just use your backups | 21:06 |
| jjk1989 | It is in norwegian, but it is like this: we are supposed to program in c and fortran, using gnu emacs, for this we had to get ubuntu it says | 21:06 |
| danny_ | ActionParsnip: How can I restore them? | 21:06 |
| ActionParsnip | danny_: how do you backup your data? | 21:06 |
| jrib | jjk1989: did you boot ubuntu already? | 21:06 |
| frobisher | Ericthegraaaaaaaaa;aaaaaaaaa3friendly-coders. | 21:06 |
| murphn1 | #xbins | 21:07 |
| jjk1989 | I installed wubi and restarted my machine, is that what you mean? | 21:07 |
| EagleCZ | sam-_-: sorry for being such a noob but... could you please send me the command to do that? as i said im totally new to linux | 21:07 |
| bencahill | hey, is there something like autohotkey for linux? | 21:07 |
| NickyT289 | Is there any way for me to lose the GRUB screen without a reinstall? | 21:07 |
| sam-_- | EagleCZ, sudo dpkg -P linux-image-2.6.35-24-generic-pae && sudo apt-get clean && sudo apt-get install linux-image-2.6.35-24-generic-pae | 21:07 |
| phixxor | Is anyone here familiar with nmcli (ok if you aren't) -- I'm trying to connect to my default connection by doing "nmcli con up "Auto eth0"" but it gives an error -- i'm running up and down between computers to figure it out | 21:07 |
| jrib | jjk1989: no. You need to install ubuntu using wubi and then select ubuntu from the menu when you boot | 21:07 |
| bencahill | NickyT289: see the grub config wiki page... | 21:07 |
| ActionParsnip | jjk1989: burn the iSO slowly to a CD and boot to it. You can then resize your NTFS and install a true OS. Or you could even use virtualbox and run it that way | 21:07 |
| jjk1989 | ok I will tr again | 21:07 |
| danny_ | ActionParsnip: With Gconf-cleaner | 21:07 |
| jjk1989 | thanks | 21:08 |
| phixxor | NickyT289, do you mean boot straight to Ubuntu or straight to WIndows? | 21:08 |
| bencahill | NickyT289: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Grub2 | 21:08 |
| NickyT289 | Straight into Ubuntu | 21:08 |
| stealthc_ | just wondering here, is there a cat /proc command that can pull up information on disks, their UUID's and labels? | 21:08 |
| bencahill | stealthc_: sudo blkid | 21:08 |
| jrib | phixxor: I'm not, but you should include the error in a pastebin link | 21:08 |
| NickyT289 | Thanks. | 21:08 |
| nicofs | Is there a way to "grab" the exact specifications of a video to insert them as options into ffmpeg to code videos into the same format? | 21:08 |
| outer_space | I can sftp to my server, but when I ftp it claims my password is incorrect, does ftp use different accounts than sftp? | 21:08 |
| stealthc_ | does that work in solaris too? | 21:09 |
| red2kic | NickyT289: Download Ubuntu LiveCD -- You want to install Grub to your USB stick (where Ubuntu sits on it). | 21:09 |
| BelkinUSB | hi all, do you think I should be able to run Ubuntu/xubuntu on a portable with a P3 900 Mhz processor, 250 Mb RAM and | 21:09 |
| sam-_- | sciguy16, post a "sudo fdisk -l /dev/sdx " and your grub.cfg and i will try to tell you what you need to change | 21:09 |
| jrib | stealthc_: ask a solaris channel... | 21:09 |
| phixxor | NickyT289, that's definitely possible -- use the link that bencahill provided -- you can also check out the program "startupmanager" which does it via GUI i think | 21:09 |
| stealthc_ | see and that's why I'm asking for cat proc methods if any, I know solaris supports that | 21:09 |
| bencahill | BelkinUSB: I would run a lighter version, like xubuntu or lubuntu, or go for a lighter distro altogether | 21:09 |
| NickyT289 | Startup manager? | 21:09 |
| g11992 | gobbe: hello! are u there? | 21:09 |
| bencahill | BelkinUSB: see this: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/SystemRequirements | 21:09 |
| ActionParsnip | nicofs: mplayer -identify filename should tell you good stuff | 21:09 |
| phixxor | jrib, that's a little bit difficult since that computer isn't connected to the internet at the moment, but I'll write it down | 21:10 |
| EagleCZ | sam-_-: http://p.boxnet.eu/86253/ | 21:10 |
| jrib | stealthc_: the other way you can do it on ubuntu is ls -l /dev/disk/by-uuid/ . If you need help with solaris though, this isn't the place for it | 21:10 |
| Migaaresno_ | jrib, I have managed to get it working using: chmod -R -v 755 ./ Thanks. | 21:10 |
| BelkinUSB | bencahill... yup it looks kinda sloshy now | 21:10 |
| ActionParsnip | BelkinUSB: should be fine, what video card? | 21:10 |
| phixxor | NickyT289, yes https://help.ubuntu.com/community/StartUpManager | 21:10 |
| stealthc_ | actuall I believe that will work in solaris | 21:10 |
| phixxor | NickyT289, you can also do it straight from the command line if you prefer | 21:10 |
| stealthc_ | and probably other nix flavors too if I am not mistaken? | 21:10 |
| bencahill | BelkinUSB: yes, but it should run great if you use something like lubuntu, which uses lxde | 21:10 |
| DJKorbit | hi, is there a command that i can use to get only the version of a deb file? | 21:10 |
| BelkinUSB | video cardi is ibm something | 21:10 |
| phixxor | brb | 21:11 |
| ActionParsnip | BelkinUSB: I'd go with Lubuntu personally but you can install Ubuntu then simply add LXDE ;) | 21:11 |
| DJKorbit | or do i have to play with sed to strip some output? | 21:11 |
| acicula | DJKorbit: apt-cache show <packagename> | 21:11 |
| stealthc_ | seems like it would I'll give it a try, thanks | 21:11 |
| sam-_- | EagleCZ, sudo apt-get purge linux-image-2.6.35-24-generic && sudo apt-get clean && sudo apt-get install linux-image-2.6.35-24-generic-pae | 21:11 |
| acicula | DJKorbit: oh like so, erm, dpkg-query perhaps? | 21:11 |
| === KinsOne is now known as KindTwo | ||
| bencahill | ActionParsnip: true :) | 21:11 |
| NickyT289 | I'm just wondering if anyone knows the command right off | 21:11 |
| NickyT289 | to save me some time | 21:11 |
| BelkinUSB | do I have to reinstall from scratch if I want to go Lubuntu or can I do it from here? (just add the lxde package) | 21:11 |
| ActionParsnip | NickyT289: you can use bum | 21:11 |
| bencahill | NickyT289: edit /etc/default/grub.conf i think... | 21:11 |
| sam-_- | EagleCZ, i hope you still have some older kernel in case it breaks :-) | 21:11 |
| === KindTwo is now known as KindOne | ||
| DJKorbit | acicula, i'll try dpkg-query, apt-cache doesn't work for me, i'm dealing with deb files, not a repo | 21:11 |

| ActionParsnip | BelkinUSB: just install lxde and then log off, click your name, select lxde then enter password and log in | 21:12 |
| NickyT289 | because 10.4 didn | 21:12 |
| NickyT289 | do this | 21:12 |
| stealthc_ | aha and then do it like this ls -l /dev/disk/by-label/ | 21:12 |
| EagleCZ | sam-_-: probably not, but i dont care about reinstalling since i dont have anything on this drive except linux | 21:12 |
| acicula | DJKorbit: ah gotcha | 21:12 |
| ActionParsnip | NickyT289: what are you wanting to do? | 21:12 |
| bencahill | NickyT289: are you just trying to bypass seing grub? | 21:12 |

| waza-ari_ | Hey all, i have an audio-dvd here, and i wand to rip the tracks from this audio dvd to my pc, bit i want to store them in a way, that they will have the 5.1 information on dvd. I found some *.AOB files in AUDIO_TS folder, but dont know what to do with them. any ideas? | 21:12 |
| sciguy16 | sam-_-: http://pastebin.com/hiye8YSp http://pastebin.com/fmymygeP | 21:12 |
| DJKorbit | acicula, dpkg-query man page says it works against a dpkg database, i want to work with plain files | 21:12 |
| NickyT289 | yes benachill, exactly | 21:13 |
| EagleCZ | sam-_-: http://p.boxnet.eu/26921/ | 21:13 |
| rez410 | is this in anyones repository? phpbb2-conf-mysql | 21:13 |
| ActionParsnip | NickyT289: and ease up on the enter key, you can write very long lines as I'm doing now and you wont scroll the channel like mad | 21:13 |
| NickyT289 | it just wastes my time because I always want regular Ubuntu of course | 21:13 |
| bencahill | NickyT289: then go edit /etc/default/grub (sudo nano /etc/default/grub) | 21:13 |
| bencahill | !tab NickyT289 | 21:13 |
| acicula | DJKorbit: yup thats what i was just checkking too | 21:13 |
| bencahill | !tab | NickyT289 | 21:13 |
| ubottu | NickyT289: You can use your <tab> key for autocompletion of nicknames in IRC, as well as for completion of filenames and programs on the command line. | 21:13 |
| fermulator | bencahill: should use "gksu" when loading GUI applications w/ sudo permissions | 21:13 |
| bencahill | fermulator: oh, is nano a gui app? | 21:13 |
| acicula | DJKorbit: i think you have to look at the deb packaging tools if you want to query the deb version number from a package? | 21:13 |
| fermulator | bencahill: oh nvm, | 21:13 |
| fermulator | bencahill; sorry, haha, nope, nano is terminal. (i read gedit) | 21:14 |
| outer_space | what is ubuntu ftp looking for if it won't accept root user and root password to connect? | 21:14 |
| sam-_- | EagleCZ, argh. i keep making litte mistakes ;-( | 21:14 |
| sam-_- | EagleCZ, sudo apt-get purge linux-image-2.6.35-24-generic-pae && sudo apt-get clean && sudo apt-get install linux-image-2.6.35-24-generic-pae | 21:14 |
| ActionParsnip | NickyT289: run: gksudo gedit /etc/default/grub and change it to be similar to this: http://pastebin.com/4AzCfrjJ | 21:14 |
| sam-_- | EagleCZ, now this should do it | 21:14 |
| Chousuke | outer_space: ? connect as your regular user | 21:14 |
| acicula | DJKorbit: dpkg-deb | 21:14 |
| bencahill | fermulator: ok, no prob, I've never actually used nano, just seen it in all the instructional things (I prefer vi, but wouldn't tell a noob to use it, as it would be to confusing :) ) | 21:14 |
| Chousuke | outer_space: no-one uses ftp as root | 21:14 |
| NickyT289 | I'm just trying to get some help guys, sorry for pissing you all off because I don't know how to properly use your chatroom. | 21:14 |
| outer_space | the only user is root | 21:15 |
| rez410 | outer_space: you have to set up a user no matter what I think | 21:15 |
| Chousuke | outer_space: make another | 21:15 |
| DJKorbit | acicula, thanks, i'll look into that | 21:15 |
| outer_space | ok | 21:15 |
| rez410 | outer_space: and specify what that user can access | 21:15 |
| acicula | DJKorbit: dpkg-deb --control file.deb fileinfo dumps the controlinfo from file.deb to fileinfo | 21:15 |
| EagleCZ | sam-_-: a long operation started so probably yes, dont see any errors yet | 21:15 |
| bencahill | NickyT289: it's no problem, just run my command or ActionParsnip's, both will edit the same file, but with a cli vs gui editor | 21:15 |
| bencahill | NickyT289: have you tried editing the file yet? | 21:16 |
| sam-_- | EagleCZ, sounds good. don't know why it didn'T install cleanly the first time though | 21:16 |
| Chousuke | outer_space: but you should avoid ftp if you need to. Install an ssh server and use scp or sftp | 21:16 |
| acicula | DJKorbit: dpkg-deb -W file.deb should do what you want even | 21:16 |
| EagleCZ | sam-_-: done, now what | 21:16 |
| Chousuke | outer_space: er, I mean, if you can | 21:16 |
| BelkinUSB | a propos of BelkinUSB... I desperately tried to install it to my laptop for the last two days, followed a bunch of threads but with no results.... Should I trash it or there is hope? | 21:16 |
| sam-_- | EagleCZ, reboot | 21:16 |
| outer_space | sftp works great, ftp wont accept root user, I hate it | 21:16 |
| DJKorbit | acicula, yup, dpkg-deb -W file.deb | cut -f 2 | 21:16 |
| NickyT289 | Ok, I have the file open & I'm ready to edit. | 21:17 |
| sam-_- | sciguy16, well that didn't help. do you know where your root fs is on? /dev/sdaX? | 21:17 |
| g11992 | anybody help please. suggest me in which format and where should i mount a partition to be used in both the windows 7 and ubuntu. there is no option for ntfs, and i tried fat32 in /dos- installation started but error message displayed that the partition cant me made in this format. | 21:17 |
| DJKorbit | acicula, and | sed 's/-.*//' | 21:17 |
| acicula | DJKorbit: the man page seems to suggest you can even specify what output format you want, but it seems to be lacking on how to do it | 21:17 |
| bencahill | NickyT289: it's heavily commented, and should be easy to do, but I'll look for you, one sec... | 21:17 |
| sciguy16 | sam-_-: yes; /dev/sda1 | 21:17 |
| hihihi100 | how do i install sdlmixer? | 21:17 |
| NickyT289 | Is it just one line that I need to edit? | 21:17 |
| ActionParsnip | NickyT289: mine file is vanilla, so should help | 21:18 |
| phixxor | NickyT289, should be, yeah -- there should be a line with "Grub timeout" | 21:18 |
| acicula | g11992: you have to use NTFS, or whatever format it is that windows 7 uses by default | 21:18 |

| phixxor | NickyT289, if you have the old version of grub | 21:18 |
| NickyT289 | right | 21:18 |
| phixxor | NickyT289, it should tell you in the file what to set it to, but I think if you set it to 0, it will go straight to your default boot option | 21:19 |
| sam-_- | sciguy16, sudo tune2fs -l /dev/sda1 | grep -i uuid | 21:19 |
| g11992 | acicula: but there is no option for NTFS while installing ubuntu | 21:19 |
| acicula | g11992: try letingg windows 7 format the partition for you, also make sure the partition type is set correctly | 21:19 |
| NickyT289 | I have this line "# Uncomment to disable graphical terminal (grub-pc only) #GRUB_TERMINAL=console" | 21:19 |
| sam-_- | sciguy16, what does it say? | 21:19 |
| NickyT289 | does that sound right? | 21:19 |
| acicula | g11992: are you trying to install ubuntu on an NTFS partition? | 21:19 |
| acicula | fs even | 21:19 |
| phixxor | NickyT289, that's not it, i think | 21:19 |
| phixxor | NickyT289, which file are you editing? | 21:20 |
| DJKorbit | acicula, dpkg-deb --showformat='${Version}\n' -W file.deb | 21:20 |

| phixxor | bencahill, they'll be back | 21:21 |
| phixxor | or she whatever | 21:21 |
| sam-_- | EagleCZ, can't make what play? | 21:21 |
| g11992 | acicula:i installed ubuntu in ext4 parttion in / i have another partition to be used in both the windows, but i cant do so | 21:21 |
| bencahill | phixxor: yep, complaining that it didn't work :D | 21:21 |
| phixxor | hahah yup | 21:21 |
| phixxor | at least it's a quick fix | 21:22 |
| ActionParsnip | g11992: windows cannot access ext4 partitions | 21:22 |
| bencahill | phixxor: yep :) | 21:22 |
| EagleCZ | sam-_-: any sound... | 21:22 |
| phixxor | Alright so let me get back to what I'm trying to figure out | 21:22 |
| bencahill | hey, is there something like autohotkey for linux? I want to remap my CapsLock key... | 21:22 |
| sam-_- | EagleCZ, which application are you trying? | 21:22 |
| erUSUL | bencahill: system>preferences>keyboard || layout | 21:23 |
| EagleCZ | sam-_-: well the sound settings sound test | 21:23 |
| phixxor | from "nmcli dev" I can tell that wlan0 is the device I need to activate -- right now it's disconnected. But I can't find anything in nmcli that would connect it | 21:23 |
| ActionParsnip | !shortcut | bencahill | 21:23 |
| ubottu | bencahill: Keyboard shortcuts can be set in System -> Preferences -> Keyboard Shortcuts. If your multimedia keys don't work with that, try the 'keytouch' package, explained at http://keytouch.sourceforge.net - See !Keyboard for changing layouts | 21:23 |
| EagleCZ | sam-_-: so i suppose i need some specific drivers, but when i was installing them last time a probably caused the damage you just repaired | 21:23 |
| bencahill | ActionParsnip: I basically want to have capslock do rightarrow, and shift + capslock do leftarrow...let me check that... | 21:24 |
| sam-_- | EagleCZ, doesn't work for me either :-) and sound works for me | 21:24 |
| waza-ari_ | Hey all, i have an audio-dvd here, and i want to rip the tracks from this audio dvd to my pc, in a format storing the 5.1 information on DVD. I found some *.AOB files in AUDIO_TS folder, but dont know what to do with them. any ideas? | 21:24 |

| sam-_- | EagleCZ, no. there are no driver issues at this point i believe | 21:24 |
| phixxor | should I be using "nmcli nm {status | sleep | wakeup | wifi | wwan } to connect? | 21:24 |
| EagleCZ | sam-_-: ok ill try to find something that makes sound but isn't the sound test :) | 21:25 |
| g11992 | acicula: actually, i have 3 paritions and windows is already installed, today i want to dual boot with ubuntu and installed ubuntu in ext4 partition and now i want to make the third partition to be displayed in both the os. now it is not showing in any of the os | 21:25 |

| BelkinUSB | another newbie question..is it safe to install ubuntu and windows XP on the same partition (for example on a laptop with a small hard disk) or must one split the disk and make 2 partitions for it to work? | 21:27 |
| acicula | g11992: set it to something similar as the windows partition type, and then format it from windows | 21:27 |
| bencahill | BelkinUSB: you could do that with wubi, but not normally | 21:27 |
| EagleCZ | sam-_-: nothing... i also tried playing an mp3 and nothing too | 21:27 |
| bencahill | BelkinUSB: you need one for windows and two for linux, assuming you need swap (which you probably do) | 21:27 |

| Diverdude | What actually happens if I install a program which installs some scripts/executables with a name which already is occupied by another script/executable? Is it then just overwritten? | 21:29 |
| sciguy16 | sam-_-: do you (or anyone else) have any idea what might cause it to be unable to find the root directory? grub can load the other operating systems without problems | 21:29 |
| sam-_- | EagleCZ, a lesbian? | 21:29 |
| acicula | Diverdude: depends | 21:29 |
| Cyphur | does anyone know where i can find a compaq proliant RAID utility so i can configure my server to run ubuntu? | 21:29 |
| waza-ari_ | ActionParsnip: its not a cd, its an audio DVD | 21:29 |
| ActionParsnip | Diverdude: it will cause an error, and you may have to force the install. You should also log a bug | 21:29 |
| waza-ari_ | botcity, maybe ill ask in there channel, its worth a try... | 21:29 |
| acicula | Diverdude: the package manager will prevent packages from ddoing that to themselves, but if you just copy files as root then they will be written, no questions asked | 21:29 |
| ActionParsnip | waza-ari_: will sound juicer not read it? | 21:29 |
| sam-_- | sciguy16, i would guess sth. went wrong with your initrd. | 21:30 |
| sam-_- | sciguy16, but it's strange that other kernel version do not boot as well | 21:30 |
| Diverdude | acicula, and if it is done from a make install on a tar file that was downloaded? | 21:30 |
| bencahill | BelkinUSB: oh, then I would use lubuntu or a lighter distro | 21:30 |
| rez410 | bencahill: so the package does not exist now? what should I use instead? | 21:30 |
| phixxor | alright -- so here's the current progress -- I think I'm supposed to do "nmcli con up id <id>" to connect my wifi -- does that sound right to anyone? | 21:30 |
| g11992 | acicula: thanks, i have done it. | 21:30 |
| acicula | Diverdude: well that depends on the package file | 21:30 |
| bencahill | rez410: beats me, I was just checking for you, I have no clue about it | 21:30 |
| EagleCZ | sam-_-: no it probably wasn't i couldn't set up any sound levels and speaker output and whatever... sorry for thinking you are a man since i haven't ever seen a woman so great at linux... lesson learned :) | 21:31 |
| m4v | sciguy16: did you fsck the root partition? | 21:31 |
| rez410 | bencahill: thanks | 21:31 |
| phixxor | but the problem is my connection isn't there, and i get a warning saying that the settings can't be found... what should I do? | 21:31 |
| erUSUL | Diverdude: depends where the files are written to. a make install usually uses /usr/local/ so the original files will not be touched | 21:31 |
| acicula | Diverdude: you can typically specify a prefix, such as /usr/local so you dont mess up your system, or you can have a look at making a debpackage from the tar file | 21:31 |
| erUSUL | Diverdude: /usr/local/bin/ is first in PATH so trhe new executables will be prefered over the old ones when you execute them from a terminal etc ... | 21:31 |
| waza-ari_ | ActionParsnip: i guess it wont, but i'll give it a try | 21:32 |
| sam-_- | EagleCZ, i am a man. but i could have been a woman. ( i made the mistake of assuming once too.) stupid joke i know... | 21:32 |

| res0001 | Greetings from a first-time poster here ... Does anyone have advice on how to get my "live" USB flash drive (8GB SanDisk Cruzer) to boot ***automatically***? I made it in Win7 using the usb-creator program recommended at Ubuntu.com (and I've also done this using Unetbootin, with the same results). I downloaded the Ubuntu 10.10 (64-bit) iso file, which the creator program correctly detects, and it reports a successfully completed inst | 21:33 |
| res0001 | allation to the USB flash drive. My system's boot-device priorities are presently (#1-Removable device, #2-CDROM, #3-HardDrive). Pressing F8 at boot-time will let me ***manually*** choose from these three, but if I simply let the system do its thing, it automatically brings up the GRUB screen for my Ubuntu 10.10 (64 bit)/Win7 dual-boot system that I already have successfully installed on my HD. Any ideas? | 21:33 |
| ActionParsnip | bencahill: not sure, ive not used it | 21:33 |
| BelkinUSB | bencahill, if I decide to install on the same partition alongside XP on my other laptop (2Gb ram, P4 2,6 Mhz) , would it run ok? | 21:33 |

| kulych | Oh, sorry | 21:36 |
| m4v | sciguy16: yes, it might ask you questions about what to do, most of the time is safe to "yes" everything. | 21:36 |
| waza-ari_ | botcity: this only reads out the Video part of the dvd, not the audio part | 21:36 |
| BelkinUSB | I wish I could trash my Xp altogether and install Kubuntu but I can't get that damn BelkinUSB network adapter to work in Ubuntu :( | 21:37 |
| sciguy16 | m4v: okay, doing that now | 21:37 |

| phixxor | bencahill, whew seems like a lot of trouble -- my ultimate goal is just to get gdm to work again -- maybe I should try turning gdm off and back on again first? | 21:39 |
| sciguy16 | m4v: the partition is now 'clean' - should I try booting into it now? | 21:39 |
| phixxor | sudo service gdm stop ? | 21:39 |
| ayecee | kulych: next step would be to figure out if it's just in the wrong place, or if you're supposed to get it from somewhere. | 21:39 |
| ether-boy | is there a kernel module available for bluetooth device Broadcom BCM2046B1 USB 2.0 Hub (part of BCM2046 Bluetooth). couldn't find anything on internet. This one is installed on a dell laptop | 21:39 |
| bencahill | ok, so does anyone know how I could capture keystrokes and convert them to something else? (e.g. shift + capslock to leftarrow) | 21:39 |
| phixxor | followed by sudo service gdm start | 21:39 |
| etam | what is wrong with my installation: http://imagebin.org/132951 | 21:39 |
| etam | ? | 21:39 |
| etam | ?! | 21:39 |
| bencahill | phixxor: are you running cli or desktop? | 21:39 |
| ayecee | ether-boy: what is the usb id? | 21:39 |
| bencahill | !enter | etam | 21:39 |
| ubottu | etam: Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation! | 21:39 |
| phixxor | bencahill, I want to be in desktop, but I'm in cli -- it's done that twice to me now | 21:40 |
| manhunter | ActionParsnip, hi | 21:40 |
| ether-boy | lspci gives "Bus 003 Device 002: ID 0a5c:4500 Broadcom Corp. BCM2046B1 USB 2.0 Hub (part of BCM2046 Bluetooth)" | 21:40 |

| phixxor | bencahill, gdm says it's running | 21:40 |
| lawlffles | Can a Launcher take user input, highlighted text dropped over it, and send it to another script for execution? | 21:40 |
| the_student | Anyone know the legality of selling bugs? | 21:40 |
| RAMNUS | hello, i want to install ubuntu on my windows. so, which file should i download? | 21:40 |
| ether-boy | sorry that was "lsusb" lol my bad | 21:40 |
| bencahill | phixxor: o_o I don't know about that, I'm not up on x/desktop managers and how they work | 21:41 |
| erUSUL | the_student: huh? | 21:41 |
| ayecee | ether-boy: it's not looking promising. I think it might not be supported. | 21:41 |
| bencahill | RAMNUS: what exactly are you trying to do? | 21:41 |
| phixxor | etam, it looks like the thing to do is kill the panel and start it up again -- but I forget how | 21:41 |
| phixxor | "killall gnome-panel" maybe | 21:41 |
| the_student | erUSUL: How legal is it to sell bugs? | 21:41 |
| bencahill | the_student: what is your definition for 'bugs'? | 21:41 |
| RAMNUS | bencahill, a friend will install ubuntu on my windows but he has no internet. so, i don't know which ubuntu files i should have before going to him. | 21:42 |
| Zoresvit | you may also use xkill and point to the panel | 21:42 |
| erUSUL | who would want to buy bugs ( software bugs i assume ) | 21:42 |
| phixxor | the_student, not sure that's on topic here... | 21:42 |
| phixxor | erUSUL, developers, so they can fix them? idk | 21:42 |
| bencahill | RAMNUS: so, you are going to format and install windows? or you have unpartitioned space on the drive? | 21:42 |
| botcity | waza-ari_: vlc is supose to play those files | 21:42 |
| === uzr23523 is now known as ynst | ||
| RAMNUS | bencahill, no. i want both windows and ubuntu on my computer. | 21:42 |
| sam-_- | the_student, depends on your country i guess. | 21:42 |
| erUSUL | phixxor: LOL they have enough of them for free | 21:43 |
| bencahill | RAMNUS: do you have unpartitioned space on the drive? | 21:43 |
| mister_m | Is there a KDE package that doesn't install any applications that I already have in gnome? | 21:43 |
| BelkinUSB | bencahill, finisched installing all the lxde-desktop environment.. what now. do I have to reboot? | 21:43 |
| RAMNUS | bencahill, my friend will do it for me. i don't know about that stuff. but before going to him to install ubuntu, i should have ubuntu install files. | 21:44 |
| the_student | sam-_-: It's Norway, so eu rules would probably apply | 21:44 |
| ether-boy | the identical one is installed on macbooks....! so is there a hope? please check http://askubuntu.com/questions/11065/cant-configure-bluetooth-drivers-for-mac-mini-4-1 | 21:44 |
| ayecee | the_student: I don't know if there would be a specific charge, but I can imagine a conspiracy charge might apply for selling bugs. | 21:44 |
| ayecee | ether-boy: I've checked. There is no hope that I can find. | 21:44 |
| christhecoolboy | ARGH, the forum is so slow... | 21:44 |
| RAMNUS | there is a windows ubuntu installer on the site but, it tries to download other files when i run it. | 21:44 |
| BelkinUSB | RAMNUS, you mean the iso? | 21:44 |
| ether-boy | thanks anyways | 21:44 |
| RAMNUS | yes the iso for windows BelkinUSB. | 21:44 |
| bencahill | RAMNUS: if you have windows already, it is most likely taking up the entire hdd, you will have to delete windows, re-partition, then install windows on one partition, and then setup ubuntu on the other(s). | 21:44 |
| bencahill | RAMNUS: why do you need to keep windows? | 21:45 |
| BelkinUSB | download it from the ubuntu.org website and burn it to a cd | 21:45 |
| ActionParsnip | BelkinUSB: just log off, select LXDE and log in | 21:45 |
| sam-_- | bencahill, RAMNUS keep windows if you have the space. | 21:45 |
| RAMNUS | bencahill :) there are some programs here on windows that i really like to use. but on the other hand, i want to take a look on ubuntu too. so, i need them both. | 21:45 |
| botcity | waza-ari_: perhaps this help you http://www.aboutonlinetips.com/how-to-play-video_ts-files/ | 21:45 |
| the_eye_ | sometimes theme doesn't apply on desktop | 21:46 |
| BelkinUSB | ActionParsnip, i did logoff but from the terminal, the gnome desktop is stuck | 21:46 |
| rww | ubuntu.com, not ubuntu.org. | 21:46 |
| ActionParsnip | waza-ari_: also install gnome-mplayer and w32codecs from medibuntu repo | 21:46 |
| christhecoolboy | RAMNUS, do you realise most programs from windows work on ubuntu | 21:46 |
| christhecoolboy | Ubuntu comes with wine | 21:46 |
| ActionParsnip | BelkinUSB: you select your username first, ten choose the desktop | 21:46 |
| sam-_- | christhecoolboy, omg. almost nothing works flawlessly in wine | 21:46 |
| ActionParsnip | christhecoolboy: its optional, not part of a default install | 21:46 |
| RAMNUS | christhecoolboy, i heard if it's not an opensource program then not usable on ubuntu. | 21:47 |
| RAMNUS | i like PES. | 21:47 |
| ActionParsnip | sam-_-: depends on the app | 21:47 |
| christhecoolboy | RAMNUS, from terminal, type "sudo apt-get install wine" | 21:47 |
| christhecoolboy | not all programs work | 21:47 |
| christhecoolboy | but some do... | 21:47 |
| sam-_- | ActionParsnip, true. i tried a lot. so what i said came from my personal experience. | 21:47 |
| ActionParsnip | RAMNUS: java and flash are not opensource and run fine | 21:47 |
| RAMNUS | well, christhecoolboy, i don't have it right now.. | 21:47 |
| orudie | how can I execute a .run file ? | 21:48 |
| ActionParsnip | RAMNUS: world of warcraft runs well too | 21:48 |
| RAMNUS | ActionParsnip, i really don't know about it very well, just i heard. :) | 21:48 |
| BelkinUSB | ActionParsnip, I can't go back to the Xserver part... the only way I can control the machine is by ctl alt F1 and terminal.. but if i logoff from there it says there are sessions in use and leaves them on | 21:48 |
| sam-_- | orudie, set the executable bit. | 21:48 |
| sciguy16 | m4v, sam-_-: I've run fsck, which seemed to fix a lot of errors - rebooting now | 21:48 |
| ActionParsnip | orudie: you can install wine and run it, check the appdb for compatibility | 21:48 |
| RAMNUS | so people, how can i get the iso to install ubuntu on my windows? | 21:48 |
| bencahill | RAMNUS: okay, did you buy the computer in question? | 21:48 |
| kalz | Can someone assist, newbie, install Ubuntu 10.10, installed NVidia drivers via install apt get Nvidia-current, rebooted and now am stuck with VERY low resolution. | 21:48 |
| RAMNUS | bencahill? | 21:48 |
| ActionParsnip | RAMNUS: install magicdisk and mount the ISO, you can then install from that | 21:49 |
| BelkinUSB | ActionParsnip, is it ok to reboot or I'll loose stuff by doing so? | 21:49 |
| bencahill | ActionParsnip: ? | 21:49 |
| RAMNUS | iso? where's iso? i don't have it. | 21:49 |
| ActionParsnip | RAMNUS: download it then | 21:49 |
| bencahill | RAMNUS: you don't understand, does the computer have unpartitioned space??? | 21:49 |
| ActionParsnip | BelkinUSB: if you save all work and reboot, sure | 21:49 |
| christhecoolboy | orudie, to set an executable bit, right click on it, then click programs, then permissions and then tick "Allow Executing as a program" | 21:49 |
| RAMNUS | ActionParsnip, can you show me the address where i can just download the iso file? | 21:49 |
| sam-_- | kalz, ctl + alt + "+" does that do anything? | 21:49 |
| etam | phixxor: even the restart didnt fix this | 21:49 |
| etam | phixxor: it is a fresh install | 21:50 |
| christhecoolboy | *properties | 21:50 |
| RAMNUS | bencahill, right now, i guess it's not. | 21:50 |
| ActionParsnip | kalz: run: sudo nvidia-xconfig and reboot, should be ok | 21:50 |
| kalz | not a thing | 21:50 |
| phixxor | etam, did you try the killall command? | 21:50 |
| RAMNUS | but my friend will do it for me. | 21:50 |
| ActionParsnip | !download | RAMNUS | 21:50 |
| bencahill | RAMNUS: you will need to delete (obliterate, format, uninstall, whatever) windows, and reinstall it on a smaller partition | 21:50 |
| ubottu | RAMNUS: Ubuntu installation CDs can be downloaded from http://releases.ubuntu.com - Mirrors can be found at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/Mirrors - PLEASE use the !torrents to download !Maverick, and help keeping the servers' load low! | 21:50 |
| BelkinUSB | ActionParsnip, nothing really important to save ... as long as the kernel remembers the lxde install I don't need the other stuff | 21:50 |
| kalz | will try and report back in a moment | 21:50 |
| RAMNUS | ok, let me look. | 21:50 |
| RAMNUS | thanks. | 21:50 |
| bencahill | RAMNUS: there is an alternative solution called wubi, but I have not tried it and as such cannot reccomend it, but it is an option | 21:50 |
| ActionParsnip | BelkinUSB: you will need to choose the desktop at the login screen | 21:50 |
| bencahill | !wubi | RAMNUS | 21:50 |
| ubottu | RAMNUS: Wubi is an Ubuntu installer for Windows users that allows you to install and uninstall Ubuntu like a Windows application, in a simple and safe way. http://wubi-installer.org/support.php and https://wiki.ubuntu.com/WubiGuide for troubleshooting. Please file bugs at http://launchpad.net/wubi/+filebug. For Ubuntu Maverick/10.10 http://releases.ubuntu.com/maverick/wubi.exe | 21:50 |
| etam | phixxor: gnome-panel no process found | 21:50 |
| christhecoolboy | I have a computer problem, I've asked in the forum, but its all too slow ATM | 21:51 |
| bencahill | !ask | christhecoolboy | 21:51 |
| ubottu | christhecoolboy: 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. :-) | 21:51 |
| ActionParsnip | christhecoolboy: maybe its being maintained in some way | 21:51 |
| phixxor | etam, try running "top" and see if it's called something different | 21:51 |
| === gigi is now known as Guest10696 | ||
| sam-_- | RAMNUS, wubi is great for trying it out over a longer period of time. if you want to use it then u should install it natively. | 21:51 |
| christhecoolboy | My PC has no sound... | 21:51 |
| christhecoolboy | its a MSI AE2020 | 21:51 |
| sam-_- | RAMNUS, longer period of time = 2 weeks +/- | 21:52 |

| cheater00 | hi | 21:58 |
| cheater00 | i have a problem | 21:58 |
| cheater00 | a full-screen application has changed my desktop resolution and now i can't change it anymore | 21:58 |
| christhecoolboy | ActionParsnip, a long thing came up | 21:58 |
| vkues | Hi :) Is there a decent way determining whether a box is "in use" or "idle"? I. e. whether there was some recent ssh login or local keyboard/mouse interaction? | 21:58 |
| cheater00 | can someone help me with finding out the command to do that? | 21:58 |
| cheater00 | additionally, xchat is very cramped on such a small screen so i can barely see anything.. | 21:59 |
| ActionParsnip | christhecoolboy: press Y when prompted, you will see a RED hyperlink giving the details, what is the link | 21:59 |
| Hrundi | hey, I have a question. What could be wrong if I'm doing telnet localhost, and try to login, and it tells me password incorrect despite being absolutely the right password? | 21:59 |
| ActionParsnip | cheater00: xrandr may do it | 21:59 |
| vkues | It's for determining whether some Maildir-sync tools should be executed or not, current idea is to use the state of a running screensaver. | 21:59 |
| ilovefairuz | Dakrav: join #freenode | 21:59 |

| ActionParsnip | christhecoolboy: perfect :) | 22:00 |
| sam-_- | Hrundi, is there a reason you use telnet? | 22:00 |
| wagnus | sam, i get this: ~$ sudo modprobe -r psmouse | 22:00 |
| wagnus | FATAL: Module psmouse is in use. | 22:00 |
| cheater00 | ActionParsnip: what's the gnome command for that? | 22:00 |
| kalz | if it helps, im using a Sony Bravia 32" as a monitor | 22:00 |
| cheater00 | i wanted to try gnome first | 22:00 |
| Dakrav | okay ilovefairuz? | 22:00 |
| ActionParsnip | cheater00: xrandr is a terminal command, theres also the monitor icon in system -> preferences | 22:00 |
| rcmaehl | help | 22:00 |
| sam-_- | ActionParsnip, nice trick ;) | 22:00 |
| ilovefairuz | Dakrav: to ask for help on how to register | 22:00 |
| cheater00 | i can't access that menu, it's offscreen | 22:00 |
| Hrundi | sam-_-: yeah, it's part of an operating systems course | 22:00 |
| Dakrav | thanks | 22:01 |
| cheater00 | i need to know the command to launch it :( | 22:01 |
| ActionParsnip | christhecoolboy: is this one of those all in one big screen PCs with the PC guts built in | 22:01 |
| rcmaehl | I'm getting bash: fork: resource temporarily unavailable on my ubuntu pc | 22:01 |
| christhecoolboy | yeah | 22:01 |
| christhecoolboy | MSI AE2020 | 22:01 |
| Hrundi | so I can't really dodge telnet here, but I'm baffled by this behavior | 22:01 |
| rcmaehl | for any and all commands | 22:01 |
| christhecoolboy | ^^ | 22:01 |
| ActionParsnip | cheater00: can you not push the screen with the mouse pointer? | 22:01 |
| etam | is there any chance you can help me with http://imagebin.org/132951 or i should install something else? | 22:01 |
| christhecoolboy | thats the model | 22:01 |
| cheater00 | no | 22:01 |
| BelkinUSB | bencahill, Lubuntu is cool but still a little on the slow side on my old piece of junk | 22:01 |
| ActionParsnip | christhecoolboy: yep, its in the alsa info | 22:01 |
| ilovefairuz | rcmaehl: running out of memory? | 22:01 |
| cheater00 | if you launch it and look at ps aux you'll find out the command name, could you do that? | 22:01 |
| rcmaehl | ilovefairuz: nope | 22:01 |
| christhecoolboy | any fixes? | 22:01 |
| kalz | okay, with nvida-current installed, can i edit a file somewhere in gedit to force a 1280x768 resolution? | 22:01 |

| christhecoolboy | cause I cant get any sound | 22:02 |
| Shinydan | Thanks, Zykotic. Should solve my problem. | 22:02 |
| rcmaehl | rcmaehl: memory in use (5%) swap in use (2%) | 22:02 |
| ActionParsnip | BelkinUSB: yikes, Lubuntu slow is pretty bad, could try flwm. Or install puppy as it is super light | 22:02 |
| bencahill | BelkinUSB: you might want to try puppy linux or slitaz | 22:02 |
| rcmaehl | >< | 22:02 |
| ZykoticK9 | kalz, /etc/X11/xorg.conf | 22:02 |
| rcmaehl | ilovefairuz: memory in use (5%) swap in use (2%) | 22:02 |
| Hrundi | if I try telnet 127.0.0.1 I just get an outright connection refused, if that helps any | 22:02 |

| BelkinUSB | bencahill, ActionParsnip puppy ? is that part of the ubuntu family or its a completely different distro altogether? | 22:03 |
| rcmaehl | ilovefairuz: however ther's some errors that might help you help me. | 22:03 |
| ActionParsnip | BelkinUSB: different distro, althought it can use Ubuntu repos | 22:03 |

| rcmaehl | is there a commnad to check all system files and their attributes, coontents, etc for errors / misconfigurations? | 22:04 |
| bencahill | BelkinUSB: completely different, but lucid can use ubuntu repos, as ActionParsnip said | 22:04 |
| Neo | hi all...i noticed a slow speed rate transferring files to my pendrive usb, did you? | 22:04 |
| kalz | ZykoticK9: Huh, my Xorg.conf is blank. | 22:04 |
| christhecoolboy | :( I hope this gets fixed... | 22:05 |

| ZykoticK9 | kalz, "sudo nvidia-config" to generate one - but that also means you aren't using the proprietary nvidia driver currently. | 22:05 |
| BelkinUSB | ActionParsnip, well lthat's handy... bencahill. On the other hand Lubuntu does not seem so bad as long as I don't browse the internet.... | 22:05 |
| ZykoticK9 | kalz, sorry nvidia-xconfig | 22:05 |
| ilovefairuz | rcmaehl: how did this start happening? and did you recently upgrade? | 22:05 |
| rcmaehl | ilovefairuz: I ran bastille | 22:06 |
| kalz | ZykoticK9: Im using the ones from apt install "Nvidia-current" | 22:06 |
| bencahill | BelkinUSB: browsing the internet will probably be the same no matter what os you use (it would depend on the browser), although I could be wrong | 22:06 |
| ZykoticK9 | kalz, nvidia-current doesn't install one i don't think - you need to run that "sudo nvidia-xconfig" | 22:06 |
| bencahill | Is there any difference to installing via apt-get vs synaptic? | 22:06 |
| BelkinUSB | the browser seems to slow everything down terribly... moreover I can't seem to find the handy Ubuntu Software center...?? Not present in Lubuntu? | 22:06 |
| ActionParsnip | BelkinUSB: You could install arora as browser, its dead light | 22:06 |
| ZykoticK9 | bencahill, no | 22:06 |
| bencahill | ZykoticK9: ok, as synaptic is much slower if you know what you're getting :) | 22:07 |
| sam-_- | stealthc_, does it have to be gawk? try sed: sed 's/\\n/,/g' | 22:07 |
| E-Dracon | Hello, my ubuntu isnt letting my get a resolution any higher than 640x480 on my DVI monitor, and to bypass this I had to plug in a second monitor with VGA. But my main monitor is still stuck on a very low resolution. Can anyone help me with this? | 22:07 |
| Neo | can anyone tell me why copying a file in a pendrive usb is so slow? | 22:07 |
| BelkinUSB | ActionParsnip, it's got chromium installed and it performs a little better than firefox.. I'll give arora a try | 22:07 |
| ActionParsnip | bencahill: midori is pretty light too | 22:07 |
| ZykoticK9 | bencahill, apt-get, synaptic, aptitude and ubuntu-software-center all use the same APT base. | 22:07 |
| ayecee | Neo: because flash drives are slow. | 22:07 |
| === jean-claude is now known as noupy | ||
| [bean] | E-Dracon: whats your video card? are you running this OS in virtual host? | 22:08 |
| ayecee | Neo: plus, they're even slower at writing than they are at reading. | 22:08 |
| bencahill | ZykoticK9: ok, that's what I thought :) | 22:08 |
| ZykoticK9 | ayecee, actually flash drives can be very fast (see SSD performance), it's USB that is the bottleneck | 22:08 |
| kalz | ZykoticK9: Right I've ran "Sudo nvidia-xconfig" , and xorg is still blank | 22:08 |
| ZykoticK9 | kalz, when you say "blank" is there really content? | 22:08 |
| ayecee | ZykoticK9: flash drives _can_ be fast, but most pen drives are not fast. | 22:09 |
| [bean] | usb 3.0 is out now | 22:09 |
| sam-_- | stealthc_, actually sed 's/\n/,/g' now that i think about it | 22:09 |
| E-Dracon | [bean]: The Os is on dualboot with Windows 7, but it is on a seperate hard-drive. The GPU is a GT 240, Running latest version of Ubuntu, with latest Nvidia Drivers install through Root. | 22:09 |
| christhecoolboy | ActionParsnip, want me to PM you about this problem, I dont know that much about it... | 22:09 |
| ilovefairuz | rcmaehl: /etc/security/limits.conf ... read http://manpages.ubuntu.com/manpages/hardy/man5/limits.conf.5.html .. something could have exceeded the max process count limit | 22:09 |
| ZykoticK9 | ayecee, it's the USB that is slowing them down so much | 22:09 |
| ayecee | ZykoticK9: for most flash drives that you buy off the shelf, the flash and not the usb is the limiting factor. | 22:09 |
| kalz | ZykoticK9: gedit has it as a blank doc, its bizzare | 22:09 |
| BelkinUSB | ok.. found the software center... was in a completely different position :) | 22:09 |
| [bean] | have you tried running xconf? | 22:09 |
| ZykoticK9 | kalz, perhaps a problem with you gedit command? "gksu gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf" | 22:09 |

| ActionParsnip | christhecoolboy: seems to be a black hole. I recommend you log a bug with alsa for it | 22:10 |
| ayecee | Neo: yup. they're quite slow compared to hard drives. | 22:10 |
| area51pilot | I did an update and now my graphics only work correctly under the previous kernel ... why | 22:10 |
| ZykoticK9 | Neo, in my personally experience running an OS off a USB flash drive, is too slow, except for installs and emergencies | 22:10 |
| LinuxAdmin | I can connect but can't list folders | 22:11 |
| LinuxAdmin | what could be the problem? | 22:11 |
| christhecoolboy | but I need this fixed... :( | 22:11 |
| etam | it occurs that running gnome-panel shows the upper and bottom panel… http://imagebin.org/132951 :/ so it was never run | 22:11 |

| LinuxAdmin | yes ayecee | 22:12 |
| ayecee | LinuxAdmin: when you connect without the vpn, you're going through a firewall, yes? | 22:12 |
| kalz | ZykoticK9: AHA! opening it from the open button IN gedit rather than via terminal actually loaded it! | 22:12 |
| ZykoticK9 | ducktype, you may want to ask in #vbox if you don't get an answer here. | 22:12 |

| BelkinUSB | well I like Lubuntu :) thanks for your help ActionParsnip and bencahill. See you ;) | 22:14 |
| LinuxAdmin | yes ayecee, but if I turn on VPN there is also NAT involved | 22:14 |
| bencahill | BelkinUSB: cya :) | 22:14 |
| LinuxAdmin | at least for encrypted traffic ayecee | 22:14 |
| phixxor | etam, sorry i left you hanging there === | 22:15 |
| ayecee | LinuxAdmin: when you connect with vpn, there is still nat but it is outside the vpn tunnel. | 22:15 |
| rcmaehl | is there like a ubuntu check system file intergerity command? | 22:15 |
| phixxor | etam, try running "gnome-panel" just to see what happens | 22:15 |
| ilovefairuz | !fsck | rcmaehl | 22:15 |
| ubottu | rcmaehl: fsck is the FileSystem ChecKer, which runs automatically when you boot if you didn't shutdown cleanly. Type "man fsck" for information on running it manually. The command "sudo shutdown -F -r now" will force a reboot and a filesystem check; "sudo touch /fastboot" will skip a filesystem check at next reboot | 22:15 |
| LinuxAdmin | ayecee, how can I turn around this? | 22:15 |
| Grujah | I booted into Windows, and when I booted back to Ubuntu the login splashscreen came up (even though it is disabled and logs in automatically). When I log in, password gets accepted but it just comes back to login screen. I am now in recovery mode. | 22:15 |
| rcmaehl | I don't want to check the file system | 22:15 |
| christhecoolboy | ActionParsnip, do you think that there could be a solution to the problem, cause I thought that alsa worked with all sound drivers??? | 22:15 |
| christhecoolboy | this makes me sad... | 22:15 |
| kalz | ZykoticK9: where abouts (and how) in here would I add a forced resolution | 22:15 |
| LinuxAdmin | ayecee, what is the problem with NAT? | 22:16 |
| rcmaehl | I want to maek sure like the system files are as they should be content wise | 22:16 |
| christhecoolboy | I need this PC, for recording gaming w/ PC sound... | 22:16 |
| ActionParsnip | christhecoolboy: it does but you need the right driver and options for the driver (if needed) first don't you | 22:16 |
| ayecee | LinuxAdmin: it would be a technical explanation, and may not help to fix the problem. do you want to know? | 22:16 |
| ZykoticK9 | kalz, the easy way is to use nvidia-settings in the GUI - manually you need to create a modeline line i believe | 22:16 |
| ilovefairuz | rcmaehl: tripwire | 22:16 |
| ayecee | LinuxAdmin: is the server behind a nat, or is the client? | 22:16 |
| kalz | ZykoticK9: Ah okay, sorry but im going to have to ask for help there as well then | 22:17 |
| sam-_- | rcmaehl, i would have had to run it at least once in the past, right? | 22:17 |
| LinuxAdmin | ayecee, I just want to solve the problem but I wouldn't mind to know the tecnical details | 22:17 |
| christhecoolboy | I dont know enough about alsa... | 22:17 |

This happens wireless and wired - my network is fine when I dual boot to windows. | 22:17 |
| jimlee | hi all, how do I locate the beagle icon after install | 22:17 |
| sam-_- | ilovefairuz, he would have had to run it at least once in the past, right? | 22:17 |
| LinuxAdmin | the client is behind a nat ayecee | 22:17 |
| ZykoticK9 | kalz, sorry just reinstalled yesterday - haven't configured my xorg yet... give me a moment to google ;) | 22:17 |
| xangua | !natty | AndyE12 | 22:17 |

| cowslammer | i've just installed a new harddisk in my laptop and I'm trying to reload ubuntu. it gets all the way through and says "no bootable devices" when it reboots. what am I doing wrong? | 22:18 |
| jimlee | hi all, how do I locate the beagle icon after install | 22:18 |
| aertyu | hi | 22:18 |
| ynst | your new harddisk is owning the old one | 22:18 |
| LinuxAdmin | ayecee, there is a firewall at the server but it is not blocking ftp | 22:18 |
| sl33k_ | what does two dashes `--` mean in a bash command? | 22:18 |
| ZykoticK9 | kalz, looks like you need a line // Modes "1600x1200" "1280x1024" "1024x768" "800x600" "640x480" // under the "Screen" section | 22:18 |
| aertyu | hello there | 22:18 |
| etam | phixxor: it shows the upper panel, but not the left one | 22:18 |
| ilovefairuz | sam-_-: with an already compromised system, no, it probably won't | 22:19 |
| ActionParsnip | sl33k_: its just the way the coder wants users to pass options | 22:19 |
| jimlee | hi all, how do I locate the beagle icon after install | 22:19 |
| ZykoticK9 | kalz, obviously you need to customize the resolutions there | 22:19 |
| aertyu | is it possible to play windows media player with firefox on ubuntu ? | 22:19 |
| the_eye_ | sometimes theme doesn't apply on desktop, after logout login works sometimes fine, any help | 22:19 |
| ynst | you need to make sure in your bios your old harddisk if the first boot option? | 22:19 |
| aertyu | if yes what to do ? | 22:19 |
| ActionParsnip | aertyu: no I doubt it a lot | 22:19 |
| ilovefairuz | sl33k_: example? | 22:19 |
| aertyu | why ? ActionParsnip | 22:19 |
| ayecee | LinuxAdmin: ftp uses a separate connection for control and data. You have allowed the control connection on port 21, but not the data connection. | 22:19 |
| aertyu | is it possible ? | 22:20 |
| jimlee | Can anybody answer me please, hi all, how do I locate the beagle icon after install | 22:20 |
| ActionParsnip | aertyu: you can use totem and install a tonne of codecs and it will do what you need most likely | 22:20 |
| angieanni | hi all...some one can help meto run gnunet ? it does'nt connect | 22:20 |
| ayecee | LinuxAdmin: the data connection is used for file transfers and for file listings too | 22:20 |
| ilovefairuz | jimlee: dpkg -L packagenamehere | 22:20 |
| ActionParsnip | aertyu: its a windows app which relies heavily on Windows. It doesn't run in wine | 22:20 |
| LinuxAdmin | ayecee, what port should I allow? is it udp? | 22:20 |
| ayecee | LinuxAdmin: if you have a firewall, you will probably have to configure your ftp server to use a particular port range for the data connection, and allow that port range through your firewall. | 22:20 |
| aertyu | with firefox ? ActionParsnip | 22:20 |
| ayecee | no, it's tcp. | 22:20 |
| sam-_- | sl33k_, ilovefairuz, from the man page: A -- signals the end of options and disables further option processing. | 22:21 |
| [bean] | aertyu: why not just setup mplayer plugin instead | 22:21 |
| KM0201 | jimlee: what is beagle? | 22:21 |
| ActionParsnip | aertyu: well the app needs installing which will need wine which it doesnt work in | 22:21 |
| ayecee | LinuxAdmin: by default, the port range for data connetion is dynamic - it can be any port. you will have to edit the vsftpd configuration to tell it what port to use. | 22:21 |
| LinuxAdmin | ayecee, I have the same rules for vpn traffic | 22:21 |
| aertyu | i m talking about playing video seperatly, i need to play video directly on firefox ? | 22:21 |
| LinuxAdmin | how do you explain that ayecee? | 22:21 |
| [bean] | there is an mplayer plugin | 22:21 |
| ayecee | LinuxAdmin: I think if we examined the rules we would find that's not the case. | 22:21 |
| ilovefairuz | sam-_-: good find | 22:21 |
| christhecoolboy | ActionParsnip, How do I do this? http://cateee.net/lkddb/web-lkddb/SND_HDA_INTEL.html | 22:21 |
| ActionParsnip | aertyu: totem gives a plugin for firefox, as does vlc as does mplayer | 22:22 |
| christhecoolboy | Is the only thing that looks promising | 22:22 |

| the_student | dizital: Try w/o the dollar | 22:23 |
| ayecee | digitalfiz: is rt2860sta.ko in the current directory? | 22:23 |
| kalz | ZykoticK9: right i've added the line, I also added "1280x768" as well, as thats the res im hoping to achive at the end of all this. | 22:24 |
| the_student | dizital: Try modprobe rt2860sta | 22:24 |
| ilovefairuz | dizital: use modprobe if it's in standard module directories, otherwise use the full path or ./ if it's in the current directory | 22:24 |
| ZykoticK9 | kalz, you probably ONLY want that 1280x768 actually - one entry only | 22:24 |
| ayecee | what an odd resolution, 1280x768 | 22:25 |
| kalz | ZykoticK9: Okay, just 1280x768. do I need to reboot, or will logging out/in suffice? | 22:25 |
| dizital | i ran the modprobe rt2860 and it just gave me anothe rprompt | 22:25 |
| ZykoticK9 | kalz, restart GDM - logging out should be sufficient | 22:25 |
| ayecee | dizital: that's a good sign. | 22:25 |
| dizital | in the sbin directory there is a insmod file | 22:25 |
| kalz | right, ill report back in a moment | 22:25 |
| dizital | trying to upload the driver is what i'm doing | 22:26 |
| ZykoticK9 | dizital, "lsmod" should show if it's loaded | 22:26 |
| ayecee | dizital: if it gives you another prompt, the driver has been loaded. | 22:26 |
| dizital | k with lsmod it shows rt2860sta with the size of 639952 | 22:26 |
| dizital | but when i type ifconfig the wireless device does not show | 22:27 |
| ilovefairuz | dizital: check ifconfig -a | 22:27 |
| dizital | i did a iwconfig and it shows ra0 ralink STA | 22:27 |
| ilovefairuz | dizital: if it's wlan0, then do: sudo ifconfig wlan0 up && iwlist scan | 22:27 |
| LinuxAdmin | ayecee, there is only "ufw allow 21" rule on my firewall | 22:28 |
| ilovefairuz | dizital: so replace ra0 with wlan0 | 22:28 |
| dizital | ifconfig -a shows the device as ra0 but no address | 22:28 |
| yayoj1 | dizital: try iwconfig if looking to see what wireless device being used. | 22:28 |

| ayecee | LinuxAdmin: right. you have no rules to allow the ftp data connection. that's what causes the problem. | 22:29 |
| LinuxAdmin | there rules are the same for traffic come from vpn or soemwhere else | 22:29 |
| ayecee | LinuxAdmin: is the vpn endpoint in front of the firewall, or behind? | 22:29 |
| LinuxAdmin | but when I connect from vpn (with same rules) I can connect. how do you explain that ayecee? | 22:29 |
| jimlee | hi all how do I install wireless in ubuntu. | 22:29 |
| ayecee | LinuxAdmin: I explain it by pointing out that the vpn endpoint is behind your firewall. | 22:30 |

| LinuxAdmin | yes I am, vpn is at the router ayecee | 22:31 |
| pkgproblem | ilovefairuz: No I haven't. | 22:32 |
| LinuxAdmin | I connect to router and then router forwards to server ayecee | 22:32 |

| ayecee | LinuxAdmin: okay. I don't know why it works with vpn, however I know why it doesn't work without vpn. | 22:32 |
| LinuxAdmin | ayecee: as I said vpn is on the router and the server is on the dmz | 22:33 |
| ilovefairuz | geneller: apache is started by default when your machine boots, you don't need to start it manually, to stop it, use: sudo service apache2 stop | 22:33 |
| sam-_- | geneller, post sudo netstat -tulpen to pastebin | 22:33 |
| LinuxAdmin | ayecee, tell me why it doesn't work and I'll try to fix it | 22:33 |
| ayecee | LinuxAdmin: the reason it doesn't work without vpn is because the firewall is blocking the data connection, which happens on a random port by default. | 22:33 |
| shcherbak | geneller: sudo netstat -tuep to see what www service you running | 22:33 |

| Sunsp0t | ZykoticK9, here's the issue. When I boot up and the computer Posts, I hit Ctrl F8 to flip the display to the external LCD Monitor and turn off the laptop's own display. | 22:45 |
| geneller | well, when i go localhost/ its working, i just don't now where is the directory, i would hope to find it in /opt/lampp/htdocs | 22:45 |

| Sunsp0t | ZykoticK9, It works, but I notice that I need to wait till I actually get to the desktop before closing the laptop lid or the computer will suspend (indiciating to me the power management settings don't kick in till then). | 22:46 |

| Sunsp0t | ZykoticK9, Exactly, that's why I'm so confused. Thanks for your help, man. | 22:50 |
| ZykoticK9 | Sunsp0t, it's also possible that you are correct that it could be a driver issue. | 22:51 |
