[00:00] <badger32d> neyhay, np - I'll be in here for a while
[00:00] <chazbrown> @juk nice, well vim loses that one
[00:00] <neyhay> great :)
[00:00] <bazhang> intok, use ogmrip
[00:00] <juk> chazbrown: sure it's
[00:00] <bazhang> intok may want to install with the --install-recommends option as well
[00:00] <DpinkyandDbrain> muelli how do you set the nomodeset in grub again?
[00:01] <Kip2> Hi, I messed up my grub somehow, and now I am trying to fix it, I'm on a live cd now, with grub in the terminal, how can I know which drives to select? here is a pic of the gparted screen http://i.imgur.com/RRv79.jpg from that screen I only want /sda2/ and /sda3/ for the boot
[00:01] <sirscrubsalot> is anyone running MS Office 2007 via wine for ubuntu 10.04 LTS? i'm a medical student and have ubuntu 10.04 LTS installed on a single boot OS - mainly need it for powerpoint and onenote + word - tutorials online showed mixed results... would like to hear if anyone else here has been able to install this via Wine - thanks
[00:01] <chazbrown> @sirscrubsalot http://www.openofficedownload2011.com/
[00:01] <bazhang> sirscrubsalot, check the appdb and join #winehq for particular apps
[00:02] <bazhang> !appdb | sirscrubsalot
[00:02] <p1und3r> does anyone know why linux-alsa-driver-modules-generic-2.6.35-25 is missing from Ubuntu Audio Dev?
[00:02] <sirscrubsalot> chazbrown - i have been using open office/googledocs but my rotations require ms office powerpoint specifically for certain things
[00:02] <shaggy2> ok so I am needing to change how long it takes for bind9 to reliase that there is a new domain/subdomain. I am running ubuntu 10.10 I created a subdomain last night and the new subdomain didn't work for about 9 - 12 hours. how do I shorten that time?
[00:02] <pooky> I'd read I could set certain apps to use a different gtk theme, can someone explain to me how to do this?
[00:03] <bazhang> pooky, read where
[00:03] <chazbrown> @sirscrubsalot that sucks.... i would use a VM over wine honestly....
[00:03] <DpinkyandDbrain> Muelli?
[00:03] <badger32d> shaggy2, this is really not a question for this forum - this is a general ubuntu help forum. Let me try and point you in a direction that will get you better help, standby
[00:04] <pooky> bazhang: online, I don't understand the instructions I guess is a more accurate way of saying it. It says to set an environment variable, but I don't know how to do that for a launcher...
[00:04] <sirscrubsalot> chazbrown - i don't have a windows OS - would i be able to use something what you mentioned for that purpose then?
[00:04] <tallis_> does anybody have any experience on software raid???
[00:04] <bazhang> pooky, got a link to it?
[00:04] <shaggy2> I have tryed ubuntu-serverm no response, #bind9 no one in there
[00:04] <bazhang> !raid > tallis_
[00:04] <chazbrown> @sirscrubsalot you do need a windows ISO sorry
[00:04] <badger32d> shaggy2, try #bind, that appears to be a bind9 node
[00:04] <pooky> bazhang: heh, I would, if I hadn't just switched to using vimprobable and knew how to copy the URL >.>
[00:05]  * pooky is ashamed
[00:05] <shaggy2> @nadger32d, thank you
[00:05] <badger32d> shaggy2, #bind appears to also have 71 users, so should have good luck!
[00:05] <shaggy2> @badger32d, thank you
[00:05] <badger32d> shaggy2: np
[00:05] <pooky> bazhang: it says to set something like this, GTK2_RC_FILES=/home/USERNAME/.themes/custom.gtkrc thunar
[00:05] <KrashKing> how would I do a command line install once I get the ramdisc loaded
[00:05] <pooky> I just don't know how to make that the default when gnome launches something
[00:06] <bazhang> http://urukrama.wordpress.com/2008/07/13/setting-a-custom-gtk-theme-for-specific-applications/ like this link?
[00:06] <pooky> that is exactly what I'm looking at
[00:06] <pooky> OH
[00:06] <pooky> I misread it
[00:06] <pooky> I get it
[00:06] <pooky> sorry
[00:06] <juk> chazbrown: for me they complete each other, i use both
[00:07] <KrashKing> chazbrown
[00:07] <KrashKing> err
[00:07] <DpinkyandDbrain> can anyone answer some questions about installing nvidia drivers?
[00:07] <KrashKing> chazbrown: could I PM you?
[00:07] <bazhang> DpinkyandDbrain, using jockey-gtk ?
[00:08] <chazbrown> @KrashKing sure but i am at work, i go AFK alot
[00:08] <bazhang> DpinkyandDbrain, what card
[00:08] <cbz> Hi - Once a new kernel is installed, what is the process to update the boot so that it uses that kernel - i could just edit menu.lst but i wanted to know what the automated way of doing that is
[00:09] <bazhang> cbz, as part of a normal update?
[00:09] <Jordan_U> cbz: "sudo update-grub" (if you install a kernel via the package manager this will be done automatically).
[00:09] <bazhang> cbz, menu.lst is no longer operative in grub2 btw
[00:10] <Kip2> Hi, I messed up my grub somehow, and now I am trying to fix it, I'm on a live cd now, with grub in the terminal, how can I know which drives to select? here is a pic of the gparted screen http://i.imgur.com/RRv79.jpg from that screen I only want /sda2/ and /sda3/ for the boot
[00:10] <Jordan_U> Kip2: What problem are you actually having with grub?
[00:11] <Kip2> gives some device error or something on boot
[00:11] <Kip2> unrecognised file system or some thing
[00:11] <badger32d> kip2, thats an interesting partitioning scheme. Did it ever boot correctly?
[00:11] <_Wind> I attempted to install linux mint beside my windows XP asa dual-boot, and now I can't boot either of them...
[00:11] <Kip2> yeah..
[00:12] <esing> hi
[00:12] <esing> where can I find chromium-browser directory?
[00:12] <badger32d> kip2, you need to chroot in and reinstall grub from the livecd, not just reinstall. Standby for linky
[00:12] <esing> I deleted the symlink that is why I cant start chromium in gui
[00:12] <esing> someone knows?
[00:13] <Kip2> im on the live cd right now
[00:13] <badger32d> kip2, check out http://www.uluga.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1499540
[00:13] <esing> kip2 what do you mean?
[00:13] <esing> hi badger32d u german?
[00:13] <bazhang> _Wind, is ubuntu related here somehow?
[00:13] <_Wind> can someone help me? I kind of screwed up. :\
[00:13] <esing> hi _wind
[00:13] <esing> hi bazhang from?
[00:13] <badger32d> esing try sudo find / -name chromium*, but my guess is it is in /opt
[00:13] <bazhang> _Wind, you said mint, which is not supported here
[00:13] <esing> badger32d i did laready
[00:13] <badger32d> esing, no - I'm not german
[00:13] <esing> thx i look /opt
[00:13] <bazhang> esing, chit chat in #ubuntu-offtopic NOT here
[00:14] <_Wind> but the problem isn't the OS
[00:14] <_Wind> and no one in the mint channels can solve it
[00:14] <esing> badger32d opt is empty
[00:14] <esing> in my OS
[00:14] <bazhang> _Wind, this is ubuntu support try mint support as its unsupported here and offtopic
[00:14] <VCoolio> esing: dpkg-query -L package to see where "package" installed it's files
[00:15] <bazhang> _Wind, all the more reason to never choose Mint
[00:15] <_Wind> I did try it, no one can help me... If I had told you I was trying to install ubuntu would you have helped? the OS isn't the problem :(
[00:15] <bazhang> _Wind, please dont ask any further.
[00:15] <mattt_> I've setup lvm on a raid0 array and have installed ubuntu, but the install process doesn't seem to generate the correct grub2 config - that is, it's missing modules lvm, mdraid, and raid.  It actually worked on a virtual machine, but it's not working on my physical machine.  How can I generate the correct grub2 setup?
[00:15] <badger32d> _Wind, yeah, but this is an *ubuntu* channel, not a "general os question" channel. Try www.google.com
[00:16] <esing> thx vcoolio
[00:16] <C1iFF> what is the program in Ubuntu that handles the look (icons, toolbar, window menu, etc.) I am having problems and hope restarting may help.
[00:16] <bazhang> !mintsupport | _Wind
[00:16] <Darxus> How do I enable / disable proprietary video drivers when X isn't working?
[00:16] <Darxus> I was using the open source nvidia driver (nouveau), enabled the proprietary driver, rebooted, and X won't load.
[00:16] <murchadh> _Wind: Try #grub. Could be a good start point.
[00:16] <Darxus> So I want to switch back to nouveau.  But I only know how to do it in X.
[00:17] <_Wind> murchadh, will try, thank you
[00:17] <badger32d> Darxus, can you get a command line?
[00:18] <|Kellan|> exit
[00:18] <DpinkyandDbrain> elitedev how do you edit a mounted system in the live cd?
[00:18] <Darxus> badger32d: Yes, I'm on the console on that computer now.
[00:18] <badger32d> Darxus: I would sudo nano /etc/X11/xorg.conf - and in the "device" section, change the driver from nvidia to nouveau
[00:19] <Darxus> badger32d: I thought... well it's worth a try.
[00:19] <badger32d> Darxus: I *think* that should get you back into a gui.
[00:20] <jon8> whats the flag to remove a BINDED mount
[00:20] <Darxus> badger32d: That worked great, thanks a lot.
[00:21] <jon8> i just did 'mount --bind /home/user /home/ftpserver'
[00:21] <badger32d> Darxus: no problem man, good luck getting the nonfree drivers working.
[00:21] <jon8> and i want to remove it
[00:21] <jvirdo> did middle-click scroll behavior change for 10.04?
[00:21] <Darxus> badger32d: Thanks.  I had them working before....
[00:22] <jvirdo> i'm on a t400 thinkpad, and i recall middle-click scroll working in things like file browser windows and whatnot, whereas now middle-click only functions as paste
[00:22] <jvirdo> (although it scrolls in firefox, via tweaking things in about:config)
[00:22] <Darxus> "Sorry, installation of this driver failed."
[00:22] <psykatog> how do I check if my OS is recognizing a device?
[00:22] <psykatog> (external cdrw drive)
[00:22] <murchadh> DpinkyandDbrain: You could mount the filesystem and chroot into it, but that may not be what you mean. Mounting the partition is step one anyway. sudo mkdir /media/where_you_want_to_mount/  -and the- mount /dev/sd?_your_drive /media/where_you_want_to_mount/
[00:23] <chazbrown> @psykatog scanpci
[00:23] <esing> ok worked
[00:23] <esing> How can I add the created symlink to the menu?
[00:23] <badger32d> Darxus: has it failed before? I would sudo apt-get remove --purge nvidia-* then sudo apt-get autoclean, then try to reinstall. Thats what I had to do to a buddies machine a couple days ago
[00:23] <psykatog> chazbrown, as in, a terminal command?
[00:23] <chazbrown> @psykatog yeah, you might have to install it
[00:23] <esing> badger32d ._.
[00:24] <chazbrown> actually
[00:24] <chazbrown> even better do
[00:24] <chazbrown> @psykatog lspci
[00:24] <badger32d> psykatog - you can lsusb if is a usb drive, its easier
[00:24] <badger32d> chazbrown: lsusb if its an external drive, most likely usb
[00:24] <chazbrown> @badger32d oh i thought it was PCI nevermind
[00:25] <psykatog> it's an external cd drive, which uses up 2 usb ports...
[00:26] <badger32d> psykatog - yeah, try lsusb, you should see something that says usb cd drive. Also, check the disk utility in the administration menu, it should show up in there too
[00:26] <jvirdo> anyone else with scrolling problems on 10.04? :\
[00:27] <esing> How can I recreate a desktop configuration file?

[00:30] <boxbeatsy> hi, i'm trying to use pssh to execute simple commands across a bunch of servers, but i'm getting "[FAILURE} <ip> Received error code of 255".  The command i'm using is "pssh -h hosts.txt ls" where hosts.txt is a file containing 2 IP's that i can ssh into
[00:30] <boxbeatsy> does anyone know what i'md oing wrong?
[00:30] <fengxiaoxiao> ?????
[00:30] <fengxiaoxiao> i from china
[00:31] <sergiu_> fengxiaoxiao: I'm not ^^
[00:31] <boxbeatsy> lol
[00:31] <mattt_> What might cause a "timeout" at boot and a busybox prompt to come up?
[00:32] <badger32d> boxbeatsy - this is definately the wrong channel for that. I would check with the good saint google for help with that problem.
[00:32] <isnoop> Anyone know the cause & cure of "less" showing control characters instead of acting on them?
[00:32] <murchadh> mattt_: USB key, external drive, after that the suggestions get more and more scary.
[00:32] <isnoop> For example, pgdn simply displays "^[[6~"
[00:32] <DpinkyandDbrain> how do you use chroot?
[00:32] <chazbrown> sudo su -
[00:32] <chazbrown> oh chroot
[00:33] <chazbrown> you just do chroot /dir/to/be/root
[00:33] <boxbeatsy> badger32d: o ok.  i just thought it might be relevant to ubuntu's pssh package.  thanks!
[00:33] <mattt_> murchadh, I've just setup a raid0/lvm system.  I can mount it all when I boot to my old drive and the system seems properly installed.  I duplicated the setup on a VM and it booted fine.
[00:33] <badger32d> boxbeatsy: try - http://www.ubuntugeek.com/execute-commands-simultaneously-on-multiple-servers-using-psshcluster-sshmultixterm.html
[00:33] <murchadh> DpinkyandDbrain: mount the filesystem with the OS on it say - mount /dev/sda1 /media/sda1 and the chroot /media/sda1.
[00:34] <TimRiker> running netcat6 (nc6) on both maverick and lucid and it seems to be broken. it never looks for replies. can someone test this? ie: echo -n "GET / HTTP/1.0\r\n\r\n" | nc localhost 80   should get a reply. works with netcat, does not work with netcat6 even on ipv4 connections.
[00:34] <boxbeatsy> badger32d: oooo i think i got it.  thank you!
[00:35] <boxbeatsy> mmm nvm
[00:35] <badger32d> boxbeatsy: good luck
[00:35] <boxbeatsy> ok well it's a start, thanks
[00:35] <badger32d> boxbeatsy, pm me the error you are getting
[00:36] <murchadh> mattt_: Sounds like lvm might not be loading properly - but I don't boot RAID or lvm so I won't mess you about with any more 'mights'. Sorry!
[00:38] <DpinkyandDbrain> murchadh it doesnt seem to be working
[00:38] <esing> ok
[00:38] <esing> I need someones help

[00:40] <Aurelia> what's that?
[00:40] <esing> browser
[00:40] <esing> which distru u have aurealia?
[00:40] <TimRiker> can anyone try that with netcat6? You do NOT need to be setup with IPv6.  echo -n "GET / HTTP/1.0\r\n\r\n" | nc localhost 80  just need a local web server running.
[00:40] <badger32d> psykatog: did you check the disk manager under the administration menu?
[00:40] <NeS> Aurelia: what's the problem?
[00:40] <esing> badger32d hi
[00:40] <esing> hi nes
[00:40] <psykatog> I'm using kubuntu...
[00:40] <NeS> esing: hi
[00:40] <naryfa> hi
[00:40] <TimRiker> but similar issue is shown with this: nc localhost ssh   closes immediately with netcat6 but stays open correctly with netcat.
[00:41] <Aurelia> i need a quick favor. who wants to help me?
[00:41] <NeS> Aurelia: what's the problem?
[00:41] <esing> nes i need the content of your chromium-browser.desktop file in folder usr/share/applications
[00:41] <esing> hi nes
[00:41] <shaggy2> Aurelia: just state your problem and someone will help
[00:41] <esing> hi shaggy2

[00:43] <esing> shaggy2 why
[00:43] <esing> shaggy2 direct link is faster
[00:43] <shaggy2> to delete your file thats why
[00:43] <esing> shaggy2 yes
[00:43] <esing> shaggy2 i thought it was just a symlink
[00:43] <esing> shaggy2 some supervisor told me wrong
[00:43] <esing> shaggy2 iam very angry tho
[00:43] <esing> shaggy2 but now i have to recover
[00:43] <esing> shaggy2 can you give me the content of the file?
[00:43] <shaggy2> well I can not help you I have 10.10 server
[00:44] <esing> shaggy2 np thnx tho
[00:44] <esing> hi peterfa
[00:44] <badger32d> psykatog, huh - well it seems your system is not seeing it then. If lspci and lsusb dont show it, then you may have a problem getting it to work.
[00:44] <esing> peterfa go to folder usr/share/applications first
[00:45] <esing> peterfa still here?
[00:45] <esing> hi badger32d
[00:45] <esing> hi all
[00:45] <esing> badger32d from?
[00:45] <TimRiker> ah! netcat6 1.0-5 works. netcat6 1.0-6 (maverick) is broken. what's the easiest way to file a bug?
[00:45] <esing> hi timRiker
[00:45] <shaggy2> esing: ask like this, if anyone has chromium could I please get a copy of your system file for that application or could comeone please point me to where I can get the information
[00:45] <PeterFA> esing: I'm following you.
[00:46] <juk> !bug | TimRiker:
[00:46] <esing> PeterFA right click on chromium-browser.desktop file
[00:46] <esing> PeterFA open as leafpad
[00:46] <esing> PeterFA ctrl + a
[00:46] <shaggy2> !chromium | esing:
[00:47] <PeterFA> esing: I think you're answering a different question than what I asked.
[00:47] <VCoolio> esing: dude, just copy any file from /usr/share/applications and edit with your text editor, it's not that hard, or reinstall chromium-browser to get the files back
[00:47] <esing> PeterFA copy the text
[00:47] <esing> PeterFA and paste to pastebin.com
[00:47] <esing> then give me the link
[00:47] <VCoolio> esing: http://standards.freedesktop.org/desktop-entry-spec/desktop-entry-spec-0.9.4.html
[00:48] <shaggy2> esing: maybe reinstall chromium might be a btter option
[00:48] <esing> VCoolio I did this already
[00:48] <esing> VCoolio the Link works too
[00:48] <VCoolio> esing: http://paste.pocoo.org/show/328551/
[00:49] <esing> VCoolio But it doesnt show in menu ,...
[00:49] <PeterFA> esing: why would I do that to add stegdetect to my box?
[00:49] <shaggy2> open a shell window and sudo apt-get install update then sudo apt-get install upgrade
[00:49] <esing> haha thanks VCoolio
[00:49] <esing> Took nearly 10 minutes
[00:49] <esing> after one good guy gave it to me
[00:50] <esing> PeterFA I wanted you to give me a information I needed, not related to your problem (sry)
[00:50] <PeterFA> esing: oh.
[00:50] <VCoolio> esing: check the lines, you can create any .desktop file you like in ~/.local/share/applications, it's not hard
[00:51] <PeterFA> esing: why not just purge your installation and reinstall?
[00:51] <PeterFA> Because that requires no effort on my part.
[00:51] <esing> VCoolio ye but not the exact content as you just gave me ^^

[00:54] <abstrakt> anyone know if there's a plugin or addon for GNOME virtual desktops that will zoom out so you can see your desktops in a grid/row and then click on the one you want to "warp" to?
[00:54] <ariqz> ok, so I removed my old graphics card and am running ubuntu with just my built in video chipset on the mobo, and ubuntu isn't booting into gnome. Furthermore, when I start in safe mode and run with safe video drivers, gnomes still fails. How do I rectify this?
[00:54] <esing> thanks VCoolio
[00:54] <xangua> abstrakt: you mean compiz¿
[00:55] <esing> VCoolio Plus thanks for the awesome trick showing all directoites of dpkg
[00:55] <maco> abstrakt: if you use compiz (ie turn on visual effects) thatd be the Expo plugin
[00:55] <VCoolio> esing: no problem, hang out here and you'll learn plenty more
[00:55] <abstrakt> maco, great, yeah I have compiz on
[00:55] <esing> VCoolio ye I do
[00:55] <abstrakt> maco where do I go to turn on the Expo plugin?
[00:55] <abstrakt> s/turn on/use/ or whatever you wanna call it
[00:55] <esing> Vcoolio tonight no more much due in germany it is 02:00 a.m. ^^
[00:56] <maco> abstrakt: you have to have compizconfig-setings-settings-manager installed
[00:56] <ariqz> ok, so I removed my old graphics card and am running ubuntu with just my built in video chipset on the mobo, and ubuntu isn't booting into gnome. Furthermore, when I start in safe mode and run with safe video drivers, gnomes still fails. How do I rectify this?
[00:56] <esing> Vcoolio now Iam burning ubuntu10.10 and want it to install on my virtualbox :D ** hopefully it works ^^

[00:57] <VCoolio> esing: why burn? virtualbox does iso
[00:57] <esing> Vcoolio hmm didnt know this
[00:57] <maco> abstrakt: whoops
[00:57] <maco> IsmAvatar: is it USB or ESATA?
[00:57] <esing> Vcoolio I use linux since yesterday :P
[00:57] <TimRiker> this bug is on a remote machine. how do I report a bug on the web interface when ubuntu-bug is running on a machine without x etc.
[00:58] <IsmAvatar> maco: USB
[00:58] <VCoolio> esing: everyone needs to start some day; have fun, it's 2.00 for me too, going to bed
[00:58] <maco> IsmAvatar: i dont know why then
[00:58] <esing> Vcoolio but I learned very much in short time
[00:58] <esing> Vcoolio good night my friend
[00:58] <IsmAvatar> maco, would you know what the mount device name might be?
[00:58] <NeS> abstrakt: try super+e
[00:58] <abstrakt> NeS, what's that?
[00:58] <maco> IsmAvatar: ls /dev | grep sd
[00:59] <NeS> key shortcut
[00:59] <TimRiker> ah.. it gives a url if I try on the remote. :)
[00:59] <NeS> super as winkey
[00:59] <maco> IsmAvatar: first disk is /dev/sda, second is /dev/sdb, third is /dev/sdc
[00:59] <maco> IsmAvatar: /dev/sda1 is first partition on first disk, etc
[00:59] <ariqz> ok, so I removed my old graphics card and am running ubuntu with just my built in video chipset on the mobo, and ubuntu isn't booting into gnome. Furthermore, when I start in safe mode and run with safe video drivers, gnomes still fails. How do I rectify this?
[00:59] <IsmAvatar> maco: it's only listing my internal hard disks.
[00:59] <maco> IsmAvatar: tail -f /var/log/dmesg, then unplug and replug it. does it say anything new?
[01:00] <rusty149> IsmAvatar: df -l
[01:00] <IsmAvatar> maco: No--- but after I re-plugged it, it auto-mounted >_>
[01:00] <maco> ariqz: did your old card use a proprietary driver? if so it may have had a configured /etc/X11/xorg.conf  which is not needed or not right for your internal. try moving it to a different location (move, not delete, so you can get it back if needed)
[01:01] <thespawnman> i cant get sound out of all of the speakers on ubuntu 10.10

[01:14] <LaurenK> how do I use sticky keeys in ubuntu
[01:14] <bertmanphx> I have a question - A user has 10.04 installed, and NEEDS to keep the stock version of Thunderbird due to a compatibility problem with the Lightning plug-in.  Eventhough I locked the package, it STILL updates!  Could it be held in cache or something?
[01:14] <LaurenK> i need sticky keys
[01:14] <aeon-ltd> thespawnman: how many speakers do you have?
[01:14] <LaurenK> like if i push alt
[01:14] <LaurenK> i have to hold it down
[01:14] <gunndawg> good evening folks!
[01:14] <LaurenK> before i push F

[01:16] <drt2484> Hello, I have a 2nd generation 4GB ipod that i cant mount on ubuntu. When i plug in the ipod nothing comes up,
[01:17] <psycho_oreos> drt2484, what sort of filesystem is it using? Apple or Windows?
[01:17] <drt2484> psycho_oreos: windows,
[01:18] <psycho_oreos> drt2484, pastebin (not paste) me the last 20 lines of your dmesg log
[01:18] <aeon-ltd> thespawnman: check all speakers outputs are maxed out in 'alsamixer'; tyoe 'alsamixer' into a termina;
[01:18] <arrrghhh> hey all.  finally got this dell laptop working, except for wifi.  it does have closed source drivers for the card, which i enabled.  nm-applet doesn't want to even scan for networks consistently.  so i installed wicd, and it always finds networks, but says my password is bad - when it most certainly is not.
[01:18] <thespawnman> aeon-ltd: ill ready checked they work in windows and i already maxed all levels in alsamixer
[01:19] <arrrghhh> i wonder if it's an issue with wpa... do i need to do anything other than the 'additional drivers' for wpa2?
[01:19] <aeon-ltd> thespawnman: desktop with a sound card?
[01:19] <thespawnman> aeon-ltd: yea
[01:19] <aeon-ltd> thespawnman: you may need a module loaded for it to work properly
[01:20] <psycho_oreos> arrrghhh, why not try the open source built-in kernel driver?
[01:20] <gunndawg> Anyone familiar with plymouth themes that could walk me thru installing a new one on ubuntu 10.10 ?
[01:20] <rusty149> arrrghhh: Have you tried the backports wireless kernel module
[01:20] <arrrghhh> psycho_oreos, when i started ubuntu there was no networks detected at all... there is no driver as i understand it.
[01:20] <thespawnman> aeon-ltd: it depends on the boot sometimes i get no sound at all and some times all 6 and i cant figure out whats been changing
[01:21] <psycho_oreos> arrrghhh, pastebin (not paste) me your lspci -nnk output
[01:21] <arrrghhh> rusty149, it's a broadcom card.  i haven't tried that.
[01:21] <arrrghhh> psycho_oreos, sure 1 sec
[01:21] <drt2484> psycho_oreos: http://paste.ubuntu.com/559751/   here
[01:21] <distatica> I would like to set things up so that when I press alt+left its the same as pressing ctrl+alt+f6, and alt+right to ctrl+alt+f8, anyone know how to do this off hand?
[01:22] <gunndawg> distatica thats just a matter of remapping ur key binds
[01:22] <psycho_oreos> drt2484, those aren't the last 20 lines :) there's no information about ipod being plugged in. Was it recently plugged in or was it plugged in when you turned on the computer?
[01:23] <drt2484> psycho_oreos: recently
[01:23] <drt2484> psycho_oreos: nothing seems to happen when i plug it in,
[01:23] <induz> I am using Goldendict on Lucid, how can i get Goldendict to be on its default look and size??

[01:23] <psycho_oreos> drt2484, unplug and plug it in, then pastebin me the last 20 lines
[01:24] <cahyo> hey what up??
[01:24] <drt2484> psycho_oreos: kk, 1 sec

[01:24] <gunndawg> distatica, I am new to linux so I am not sure :(
[01:24] <psycho_oreos> arrrghhh, humm, there are some support for it but its quite minimal, it maybe supported through linux backports as rusty149 mentioned

[01:26] <psycho_oreos> drt2484, hmm have you tried other usb ports? if dmesg isn't showing anything new then there might be issue with connectivity
[01:27] <cahyo> please
[01:27] <arrrghhh> cahyo, this isn't a channel for chat.  there's lots of other channels you can go to, like #ubuntu-offtopic
[01:28] <psycho_oreos> cahyo, this isn't a social channel to talk and learn about English. This is a support channel for ubuntu and predominantly for English speakers
[01:28] <arrrghhh> but i must reboot.  thanks guys

[01:32] <psycho_oreos> cahyo, and no that wasn't the output that I requested, I wanted lspci -nnk output
[01:33] <drt2484> psycho_oreos: i have tried other ports, dmesg shows nothing new,. it shows new stuff when i plug/unplug other devices,  but not the ipod
[01:34] <cahyo> how it hhe?
[01:34] <psycho_oreos> drt2484, that's really unusual, it seems like linux kernel isn't able to enumerate your ipod. Are you sure you are seeing the last few lines of dmesg rather than on top, or somewhere in between etc?
[01:35] <veovis_muaddib> I just got an iPod nano, the new crap with no buttons.  I'm trying to sync with my virtualbox install.  I installed the non-open source version, and enabled usb for my VM.  All USB options were greyed out.  I then saw an error telling me to download an extension, so I installed that.  Still greyed out.  I then saw that I need to add myself to the vboxusers group, so I did that.  Still greyed out.  After each step I turned off the VM,
[01:35] <veovis_muaddib> logged out, and logged back in.
[01:35] <cahyo> yo wes ojo ngebahas iku lah... :)
[01:35] <oem_> HI.I'm a bit of a big fan of Mp3directcut. Can anyone give me any tips on how to get mp3directcut to record sound/streaming sound in wine in Mint 10 oem? It plays mp3s ok but even though I have installed lame + mpglib for mp3directcut in wine I still can't get mp3directcut to record sound
[01:35] <lemonpartydotorg> hi
[01:35] <cahyo> hi too lemon :)
[01:35] <lemonpartydotorg> I have a question about wine
[01:35] <psycho_oreos> !English| cahyo
[01:35] <cahyo> yes sir.. :)
[01:36] <lemonpartydotorg> I mounted a bin/cue image, but cant seem to install the software
[01:36] <abstrakt> omg, that was so fail... I have a separate storage partition mounted on /media/LinuxUser in Ubuntu 10.10 ... I can start rails apps when the files are physically located on my regular system drive in /home/myself/Sites/somerailsapp.com using script/server, but when I copy those files over to /media/LinuxUser I get bash: permission denied when trying to run script/server anyone have ideas on why that would be? I'm using rvm and I'm just doing eve
[01:36] <abstrakt> rything as my normal user and /media/LinuxUser is owned by me (my normal user account) and I can manually create files in there and delete them and change perms
[01:36] <cahyo> hei r do you know icon.pln.net?
[01:36] <lemonpartydotorg> I can see it mounted on the deskotp but cant run the install
[01:37] <lemonpartydotorg> in Wine
[01:37] <veovis_muaddib> lemonpartydotorg: What is the application?
[01:37] <lemonpartydotorg> it is a CBT
[01:37] <DeezeNuts> How do i install JDownloader in Ubuntu
[01:37] <DeezeNuts> this is confusing
[01:37] <veovis_muaddib> lemonpartydotorg: Check the WINE App DB for compatibility
[01:38] <lemonpartydotorg> it tries to run an exe, then a box opens and dissapears
[01:38] <veovis_muaddib> DeezeNuts: It's not too bad, did you download jd.sh?
[01:38] <DeezeNuts> Yes
[01:38] <drt2484> psycho_oreos: im sure dude, i did watch dmesg | tail, and i could see usb disconnects and stuff when i plugged/unplugged other stuff
[01:38] <veovis_muaddib> kk, where is it DeezeNuts
[01:38] <DeezeNuts> in Jdownloader.zip
[01:38] <psycho_oreos> veovis_muaddib, hmm have you tried asking this in #vbox support channel?
[01:38] <DeezeNuts> r wait
[01:38] <psycho_oreos> drt2484, but nothing with ipod itself? no disconnect/connects?
[01:39] <veovis_muaddib> psycho_oreos: Nope, thought I'd try here first in case it was ubuntu specific, Thanks for the channel name though
[01:39] <drt2484> psycho_oreos: i tried looking at all the devices in /dev too but nothing relates to the ipod
[01:39] <DeezeNuts> I have jdownloader.exe
[01:39] <DeezeNuts> jdownloader.jar
[01:39] <drt2484> psycho_oreos: no nothing with the ipod, though it starts charging
[01:39] <DeezeNuts> jupdate.jar
[01:39] <DeezeNuts> inside of jdownloader.zip
[01:39] <DeezeNuts> i see no jd.sh
[01:39] <veovis_muaddib> DeezeNuts: JDownloader.exe is a Windows executable.  What you want to do is go back to the site and download the one labeled Linux
[01:40] <psycho_oreos> veovis_muaddib, nw I'm a little clueless on that. I know that the non-ose does support USB but I didn't know that you had to this and that to make it work
[01:40] <veovis_muaddib> Type my name when you've done that
[01:40] <xangua> DeezeNuts: why not add the ppa¿¿ google jdownloader ppa
[01:40] <DeezeNuts> veovis_muaddib, i did
[01:40] <lemonpartydotorg> CBT nuggets is not in teh Wine app DB
[01:40] <lemonpartydotorg> now what?
[01:40] <cahyo> hei hei in my region now hots with FIRESHEEP
[01:40] <DeezeNuts> but i dont know why the hell is a .exe
[01:40] <DeezeNuts> in this zip
[01:40] <DeezeNuts> this isnt the windows one
[01:40] <lemonpartydotorg> is it just supposed to run?
[01:40] <dl2agon> how can you tell what kernal you have installed ?
[01:40] <psycho_oreos> drt2484, it won't show up in /dev if linux kernel can't enumerate :) it won't even show up under lsusb. Have you tried plugging that ipod with that same cable to other computers?
[01:40] <veovis_muaddib> psycho_oreos: Yeah, I never knew it was this bad
[01:40] <DeezeNuts> oh wait
[01:40] <DeezeNuts> veovis_muaddib,
[01:41] <DeezeNuts> i downloaded a multi os zip
[01:41] <veovis_muaddib> lemonpartydotorg: If it's not in the App DB then you're treading untested waters
[01:41] <veovis_muaddib> DeezeNuts: Ah
[01:41] <lemonpartydotorg> oh ok
[01:41] <lemonpartydotorg> thanks!
[01:41] <oneliner> ja! love the super cow powers of apt-get
[01:41] <DeezeNuts> im not sure which package is the linux one

[01:41] <veovis_muaddib> DeezeNuts: One sec...
[01:41] <bawn> how do i end a process in the terminal
[01:42] <drt2484> psycho_oreos: yes, i tried it on another laptop under windows on ubuntu live cd, neither os mounted it
[01:42] <veovis_muaddib> bawn:  Control+C usually works, what is it?
[01:42] <psycho_oreos> drt2484, and what about under windows? presumably it worked?
[01:42] <drt2484> psycho_oreos: no, nothing came up at least when i plugged it in
[01:42] <bawn> just need to end a process in a native terminal, not emulate
[01:43] <drt2484> psycho_oreos: i just got it used from ebay,
[01:43] <psycho_oreos> drt2484, then my guess is that the cable might be faulty or the connectors on the ipod
[01:43] <drt2484> psycho_oreos: so perhaps there is something wrong with it
[01:43] <veovis_muaddib> DeezeNuts: Download this: http://212.117.163.148/jd.sh and put it in Documents/JDownloader
[01:43] <drt2484> psycho_oreos: umm ok thnx, il try a different cable later
[01:44] <DeezeNuts> K
[01:44] <arch_is_awesome> Hey is there any type of bittorent indexing software I can put on my webserver?
[01:44] <veovis_muaddib> DeezeNuts: Then open Terminal, and type this:  sudo chmod +x Documents/JDownloader/jd.sh
[01:44] <psycho_oreos> drt2484, normally this shouldn't happen. I have 5.5g ipod (video) and it was quickly picked up as soon as I plug it into my xubuntu computer. The other thing to consider about is unpowered/underpowered USB ports
[01:44] <drt2484> psycho_oreos: well i tried different usb ports,
[01:44] <bawn> what is the command i type into terminal to shut down a specific program
[01:45] <drt2484> psycho_oreos: and the same pc picks up a 160bg ipod,
[01:45] <veovis_muaddib> DeezeNuts: Then, since you're using Gnome I assume, ask people how to add it to the menus, I'm out of practice on Gnome
[01:45] <psycho_oreos> drt2484, yeah but are they through a non-powered HUB or maybe through USB 1.1 port on the laptop/computer?
[01:45] <bawn> what is the command i type into terminal to shut down a specific program
[01:46] <psycho_oreos> bawn, pkill <program>
[01:46] <bawn> lemme try it out
[01:46] <DeezeNuts> Ok command complete
[01:46] <DeezeNuts> now what veovis_muaddib
[01:46] <veovis_muaddib> DeezeNuts: Then, since you're using Gnome I assume, ask people how to add it to the menus, I'm out of practice on Gnome
[01:46] <DeezeNuts> ok
[01:46] <veovis_muaddib> DeezeNuts: When you run jd.sh, it will update and then run
[01:46] <bawn> it  worked, psycho_oreos, thank you
[01:47] <psycho_oreos> drt2484, hmm and the 160GB ipod I presume has been picked up under linux right? if so then yes something is faulty with that other ipod you purchased. Its either the cable or the connectors on the ipod itself
[01:47] <psycho_oreos> bawn, nw
[01:47] <veovis_muaddib> Updates come out so frequently for JDownloader that it's not worth it to use Ubuntu's package manager, their updater is easiest...  DeezeNuts
[01:47] <DeezeNuts> yea
[01:47] <DeezeNuts> I have used it on windows
[01:47] <DeezeNuts> i know how it is
[01:47] <veovis_muaddib> Yeah
[01:47] <drt2484> psycho_oreos: the same usb port that works for my usb keyboard wont work with the ipod, i dont think the ports are non-powered. also they are all 2.0.  yes the 160gb was picked up.
[01:47] <DeezeNuts> so the linux version for JDownloader has no GUI?
[01:47] <drt2484> psycho_oreos: i think ur right
[01:48] <veovis_muaddib> DeezeNuts: No, it's the same GUI
[01:48] <drt2484> psycho_oreos: i will try another cable,
[01:48] <DeezeNuts> Oh ok
[01:48] <veovis_muaddib> I've been begging for a version with no gui though, that I could control remotely.  :P
[01:48] <psycho_oreos> drt2484, if that other cable fails to work (and hopefully you have also tried using that exact same cable to plug into 160GB ipod) then its the connectors on the ipod that is pretty much broken
[01:49] <DeezeNuts> ok its working
[01:49] <DeezeNuts> thanks veovis
[01:49] <veovis_muaddib> DeezeNuts: No problem, glad to help
[01:49] <DeezeNuts> I love this channel
[01:49] <drt2484> psycho_oreos: ok, thnx
[01:49] <lwizardl> hello
[01:49] <psycho_oreos> drt2484, nw
[01:49] <veovis_muaddib> DeezeNuts: Have you tried using Flashgot in Firefox?  You can make all downloads automatically go through JDownloader
[01:49] <veovis_muaddib> It's pretty cool
[01:50] <lwizardl> anyone here know much about setting up a ftp server on ubuntu ?
[01:50] <arch_is_awesome> So,
[01:50] <drt2484> lwizardl: kinda
[01:50] <DeezeNuts> veovis_muaddib, i plan to
[01:50] <veovis_muaddib> lwizardl: Yeah, what's the problem?
[01:50] <veovis_muaddib> DeezeNuts: Good
[01:51] <arch_is_awesome> Does anyone know?
[01:51] <arch_is_awesome> Just to make sure... "Hey is there any type of bittorent indexing software I can put on my webserver?"
[01:51] <lwizardl> I am trying to setup a ftp server on a computer so I can transfer files off these drives and to on another machine
[01:51] <bazhang> arch_is_awesome, a tracker?
[01:52] <lwizardl> veovis_muaddib, what application would be best ?
[01:52] <arch_is_awesome> Kind of, but more like ebookvortex.com
[01:52] <arch_is_awesome> bazhang, yes, a private tracker
[01:52] <veovis_muaddib> lwizardl: I use vsftp, it's pretty well documented
[01:52] <rww> a private tracker with too high of a server load, apparently.
[01:52] <veovis_muaddib> lwizardl: If you are only using this once though ssh might be better...
[01:52] <lwizardl> I have vsftp installed but I am not able to get a server up yet
[01:53] <veovis_muaddib> lwizardl: Are you following a guide?
[01:53] <lwizardl> veovis_muaddib, well maybe 4 times
[01:53] <veovis_muaddib> FTP always makes me bash my head against the wall :P
[01:53] <lwizardl> veovis_muaddib, yeah and it doesn't seem to be well writen
[01:53] <veovis_muaddib> link please lwizardl?
[01:53] <lwizardl> sec
[01:53] <blocky> anybody know about the windows USB creator app that comes on the ubuntu iso?
[01:54] <blocky> why won't it recognize the latest ubuntu amd64 iso
[01:54] <arch_is_awesome> bazhang, do you know the answer?
[01:54] <bazhang> arch_is_awesome, no idea sorry.
[01:54] <lwizardl> http://cviorel.easyblog.ro/2009/03/05/how-to-setup-vsftpd-ftp-on-ubuntu-linux/
[01:55] <drt2484> lwizardl: i use ftpd, i can help u configure it if u want
[01:55] <psycho_oreos> blocky, why not use unetbootin instead?
[01:56] <lwizardl> drt2484, sure
[01:57] <blocky> psycho_oreos, didn't know it existed. I will try it now. I wonder why they include usb-creator on the cd haha
[01:58] <psycho_oreos> blocky, *shrugs* there's almost always an alternative somewhere else
[01:58] <drt2484> lwizardl: but wats the issue ur having with vsftpd
[01:58] <Blueleaf> ubuntu died on me, please help
[01:59] <blocky> psycho_oreos thanks, appears to be working
[01:59] <lwizardl> drt2484, when trying to set the conf file and then start the server it errors. I have removed and re installed 5 times so far for the vsftp
[01:59] <psycho_oreos> Blueleaf, how did it die on you?
[01:59] <Blueleaf> i updated and now ubuntu wont load, how do i fix it?
[01:59] <psycho_oreos> blocky, then it should work :) hopefully
[01:59] <veovis_muaddib> Okay, no one's answering in #vbox, in fact, no activity at all.  Is there another way I could sync my new iPod Nano from linux?  I wanted to keep my iTunes smart playlists, but I guess I can manually do it.
[01:59] <drt2484> lwizardl: oh, i would just install ftpd
[01:59] <psycho_oreos> Blueleaf, you're not being specific. What did you update?
[02:00] <ubuntu> switch to mint...ubuntu sucks...died on me too...
[02:00] <drt2484> lwizardl: i dont think theres any configuration u need to do,
[02:00] <veovis_muaddib> Blueleaf: Also, where does ubuntu stop loading?
[02:00] <drt2484> lwizardl: unless u want anonymous access
[02:00] <ubuntu> mint has been no.1 by ALOT the past 6 mths
[02:00] <veovis_muaddib> Blueleaf: When it doesn't load, can you press Control+Alt+F1?
[02:00] <psycho_oreos> !offtopic| ubuntu
[02:00] <Blueleaf> not sure, the update manager came up and said i need to update
[02:01] <Blueleaf> havent tried control alt f1, whats it do
[02:01] <ubuntu> kk
[02:01] <lwizardl> drt2484, nope, I just want to setup a user/pass and then set the directories so i can transfer out the files
[02:01] <psycho_oreos> Blueleaf, brings up console/terminal
[02:01] <veovis_muaddib> It brings you to a fullscreen virtual terminal, with no GUI
[02:01] <ubuntu> no
[02:01] <ubuntu> thats rubbish
[02:01] <kanthbc> hi guys im using ubuntu and since yesterday left click of my mouse is not working what to do?
[02:01] <Blueleaf> when it loads it say file not found cant load fonts
[02:01] <ubuntu> unless your alt and f and 1 have virii
[02:02] <veovis_muaddib> ubuntu: The F1 key, not F and 1
[02:02] <lwizardl> drt2484, ok can i pm you ?
[02:02] <ubuntu> yea and your -
[02:02] <ubuntu> also
[02:02] <Blueleaf> all i want is to get my config files back
[02:02] <ubuntu> :)
[02:02] <drt2484> lwizardl: yh
[02:02] <Aleiex> hi, empathy doesn't connect anymore
[02:03] <Aleiex> could someone help me?
[02:03] <veovis_muaddib> Blueleaf: You can do that from the terminal.  Can you describe what happens when it doesn't load?
[02:03] <ubuntu> pples OSes cant boot and you r moaning abt empathy
[02:03] <ubuntu> ...
[02:03] <veovis_muaddib> Blueleaf: You mentioned font errors, what else?
[02:03] <Blueleaf> thats all
[02:03] <rww> ubuntu: This channel is for Ubuntu support. Random comments like that aren't helpful.
[02:04] <ubuntu> aite aite
[02:04] <ubuntu> sry
[02:04] <veovis_muaddib> ubuntu: It could be losing them money not being able to speak to clients
[02:04] <chazbrown> money?
[02:04] <chazbrown> on linux?
[02:04] <ubuntu> lol veo
[02:04] <chazbrown> lol
[02:04] <Blueleaf> i will reboot and get better info for you and try alt ctrl f1
[02:05] <veovis_muaddib> Blueleaf: Okay, thanks
[02:05] <Freddy2> hi
[02:05] <notanick>  hello
[02:05] <veovis_muaddib> chazbrown: Plenty of businesses use linux as workstations, and most use linux for servers.
[02:05] <psycho_oreos> chazbrown, some people may use it for business purposes, and if things don't work its much the same on any other platforms. People cannot communicate, clients cannot ask and therefore leave. Person loss money
[02:05] <kanthbc> hey anybody there?
[02:05] <chazbrown> sure i work at a hosting company...
[02:05] <chazbrown> dont have to tell me that
[02:05] <chazbrown> :P
[02:05] <Freddy2> i'm trying to install 10.10 from desktop-i386 iso (in a cd) and always get blocked in the new user screen (the next button never gets enabled).. why?
[02:06] <NinoScript> ubuntu: omg, I thought you were just an operating system
[02:06] <psycho_oreos> then you didn't need to `lol' at how money on linux doesn't exist
[02:06] <chazbrown> i did need to lol
[02:06] <chazbrown> cuz i wanted to
[02:06] <notanick> I just got a BSOD on Windows7... I hadn't seen a blue screen in so long... but some things never change
[02:06] <chazbrown> and it was lol, cuz empathy makes no money
[02:06] <ubuntu> ur ramfs is meshed upp with your rootfs and bios
[02:06] <chazbrown> so let me lol and just GTFO this
[02:06] <ubuntu> notjk
[02:06] <rww> ubottu: ot
[02:06] <psycho_oreos> !language| chazbrown
[02:07] <notanick> I'm glad my other disk is Ubuntu, yay
[02:07] <ubuntu> it should be linuxmint
[02:07] <veovis_muaddib> notanick: That's why my non-windows partitions are mounted as read only in windows
[02:07] <ubuntu> :D
[02:07] <notanick> veo: indeed
[02:07] <WeThePeople> rww, can i pm you
[02:07] <veovis_muaddib> ubuntu: I'm not preaching Arch, no need for you to preach mint...
[02:08] <psycho_oreos> ubuntu, you've been warned to not discuss about mint linux
[02:08] <ubuntu> k
[02:08] <ubuntu> last statement
[02:08] <ubuntu> mandriva is still my fave
[02:08] <ubuntu> now its
[02:08] <WeThePeople> rww,nvr mind
[02:08] <ubuntu> mageia
[02:08] <ubuntu> :(
[02:08] <notanick> now I am going to have to mount my Win7 disk in Ubuntu (easy of course) and back that sucker up.
[02:08] <rww> ubuntu: come back in 10 minutes, preferably more on-topic
[02:09] <psycho_oreos> rww, thanks :)
[02:10] <notanick> Anybody know about TLER (time limited error recovery) for WD drives with RAID cards?  May be ot, but I'm just wondering.  More of a hardware thing actyually
[02:10] <notanick> -y
[02:11]  * notanick will brb
[02:11] <rww> notanick: might want to ask in ##hardware, they'd be more likely to know that sort of thing
[02:11] <intok> Whats the best way to rip an uncompressed .iso of a dvd, I don't want to transcode to another format, just back it up.
[02:12] <rww> intok: I've used the 'dvdbackup' package for that
[02:12] <notanick> ok rww, ty
[02:13]  * notanick didn't know aboutz #hardware... goes away
[02:14] <notanick> bah, #hardware is invite only, oh well
[02:14] <veovis_muaddib> Crap, the 6G nano changed the way it syncs so you can't sync with anything but iTunes right now.  So back to hoping someone knows about USB in Virtualbox...
[02:14] <rww> notanick: 1) ##hardware. two hashes. 2) you need to be identified with nickserv to join, apparently
[02:15] <notanick> ah, oops, I didn't see other hash mark
[02:15] <notanick> k
[02:15] <notanick> ty
[02:15] <ugarit> I'm trying to install 10.10 via cd that I know is bootable but for some reason my dell E6400 doesn't see at as bootable, even a flash drive is not bootable. what am I missing?
[02:16] <veovis_muaddib> ugarit: How did you make them?
[02:16] <madsailor> veovis_muaddib, make sure you have the PUEL Virtualbox or USB is disabled
[02:16] <notanick> lol hello arrrrgh
[02:16] <arrrghhh> howdy..
[02:16] <notanick> is that the castle thereof?
[02:17] <arrrghhh> psycho_oreos, any other ideas...?  i tried every level of security, always said 'bad password' in wicd.
[02:17] <ugarit> veovis_muaddib via cd burner on mac os x.  I know they are bootable because when I use them on other computers they are recognized as bootable
[02:17] <veovis_muaddib> madsailor: Yeah, I have that, and the additional extension that allows USB2, and I've added myself to the vboxusers group, with a bunch of logouts inbetween
[02:17] <isO> fighting of my
[02:17] <notanick> ugarit, sounds like a bios security/protection thing?
[02:18] <veovis_muaddib> ugarit: I know flash drives are a pain to put Ubuntu on from OS X
[02:18] <madsailor> veovis_muaddib, Ahh..then you have delved further than I...good luck
[02:18] <notanick> ugarit, or does it try to spin the disk but won't boot?  Have you tried other bootables in the same optical drive?
[02:18] <ugarit> notanick but windows 7 cd is recognized as bootable !
[02:18] <veovis_muaddib> madsailor: Thanks for the attempt :P
[02:18] <psycho_oreos> arrrghhh, pastebin (not paste) me again your lspci -nnk output. Hopefully you should by now have brcm80211 driver available under available kernel modules
[02:18] <notanick> ugarit, k
[02:18] <veovis_muaddib> madsailor: Wrong smiley, oh well.
[02:19] <arrrghhh> psycho_oreos, http://paste.ubuntu.com/559753/
[02:19] <Jordan_U> ugarit: Are you sure that it's not just a CDROM drive that has problems, possibly not as bad when reading pressed rather than burned CDs?
[02:19] <WeThePeople> ugarit, is your dell set to boot from cd
[02:19] <madsailor> veovis_muaddib, no prob, wrong answer;)
[02:19] <psycho_oreos> arrrghhh, humm bugger, it still has wl available, I suppose you've rebooted after installing linux-backports?
[02:20] <Aleiex> is windows live down?
[02:20] <psycho_oreos> !offtopic| Aleiex
[02:21] <arrrghhh> psycho_oreos, oh yea.  i rebooted and then proceeded to try basically every type of authentication i could find in the router....
[02:21] <arrrghhh> i also had to install the headers, but no biggie... it threw an error without them.
[02:22] <WeThePeople> what is terminal code to see details about my computer
[02:22] <veovis_muaddib> WeThePeople: Depends on what you want to see
[02:22] <arrrghhh> don't see why apt-get didn't pickup the dependency, oh well.  i just want to be able to use this wireless card.
[02:22] <arrrghhh> i guess i should try open
[02:22] <psycho_oreos> arrrghhh, hmm :/ you might need to do this manually, manually grabbing the latest compat-wireless and compiling that, which should hopefully has brcm80211
[02:22] <rww> WeThePeople: what sort of details?
[02:22] <veovis_muaddib> WeThePeople: LSPCI perhaps?
[02:22] <arrrghhh> that just doesn't seem like an option tho haha
[02:22] <veovis_muaddib> WeThePeople: *lspci
[02:23] <arrrghhh> psycho_oreos, i guess i should check broadcom's website, but i have a feeling i'm going to be let down.
[02:23] <WeThePeople> rww, as much as possible
[02:23] <WeThePeople> rww, i am doing overclock
[02:23] <rww> WeThePeople: I'm not sure how that relates, but... sudo lxhs
[02:23] <rww> ... sudo lshw **
[02:23]  * rww fails at keyboard
[02:24] <psycho_oreos> arrrghhh, no there isn't the support for that is driver specific. There is support for that chipset via brcm80211 but its to be merged into 2.6.37 kernel iirc which only natty (11.04) will have
[02:24]  * veovis_muaddib fails at writing more than rww fails at keyboard, so it's okay
[02:24] <arrrghhh> oic.  kinda early to install that...
[02:24] <psycho_oreos> WeThePeople, I think there's also that lshal command
[02:24] <notanick> lol rww, nah.  I like it lxhs... list XML history?
[02:24]  * notanick smacks forehead
[02:24] <veovis_muaddib> notanick: lol
[02:24] <psycho_oreos> arrrghhh, the issue is also the use of broadcom's sta driver, notably wl, which is quite flaky and not verbose when it comes to debugging
[02:26] <arrrghhh> psycho_oreos, i really do detest anything broadcom.  as my friend put it "they're the yugo of the network card world"
[02:26] <WeThePeople> rww, thx lol so much info
[02:26] <rww> I have a broadcom 4312. Sounds about right.
[02:26] <Pokinawa> hello
[02:26] <psycho_oreos> arrrghhh, they are slowly opening up :) but I guess its `too little too late' sort of affair
[02:26] <veovis_muaddib> arrrghhh: Try getting broadcom working in Arch.  Recompile every kernel update.
[02:27] <veovis_muaddib> :P
[02:27] <arrrghhh> oy.  that sounds painful!
[02:27] <psycho_oreos> that's using wl driver you mean :) having a header linking to binary blob
[02:27] <veovis_muaddib> psycho_oreos: Yeah
[02:27] <notanick> wow, recompile every kern update... ugh-o-matic
[02:28] <psycho_oreos> veovis_muaddib, sadly that's the generic case :) I loathe at the sound of wl.. its what broadcom initially brought out to linux support as
[02:28] <veovis_muaddib> psycho_oreos: Yeah, now I check any laptop/netbook people buy if they want me to put linux on it.  Hopefully before they buy :P
[02:29] <psycho_oreos> veovis_muaddib, best way is to carry a liveCD/DVD/USB of some recently updated linux distro and to test :)
[02:30] <psycho_oreos> the alternative is that you can swap out those wireless cards pending on the make of the laptop
[02:30] <veovis_muaddib> psycho_oreos: Yeah, but a lot of my local retailers cover all the usb ports and have bios locks on the display models
[02:30] <veovis_muaddib> psycho_oreos: Normally I have to ask to open a box
[02:30] <Blueleaf> okay, my machine has a dual boot with windows
[02:30] <psycho_oreos> arrrghhh, I'm sure soon enough someone will write up a big forum post on howto get brcm80211 to work but afaik its been noted bcm4313 does work with brcm80211
[02:31] <veovis_muaddib> Blueleaf: Good.  Did you get anywhere
[02:31] <Blueleaf> when i boot i get: try (hd0.0) NTFS: no uubild
[02:31] <Blueleaf> try (hdo.1) NTFSS:
[02:31] <veovis_muaddib> Blueleaf: Sounds like an /etc/fstab problem
[02:31] <Blueleaf> boot failed.
[02:31] <ejv> how do I remove apache2 from auto startup upon reboot?
[02:31] <ejv> thx.
[02:32] <Blueleaf> how do i fix
[02:32] <veovis_muaddib> It's trying to mount NTFS partitions.  But it shouldn't fail if they don't mount
[02:32] <psycho_oreos> veovis_muaddib, lol I'd give them the stance of `I am the boss, obey what I desire or you lose a customer' :) Its inevitable that alternative platform users have to cop the slack but at least being the customer, they can still make a smart move
[02:32] <ariqz> is it possible to remotely turn on a computer with some signal to ethernet adapter or anything?
[02:32] <Blueleaf> ctl alt f1 freezes a screen but no command prompt
[02:32] <veovis_muaddib> Blueleaf: Interesting...
[02:32] <psycho_oreos> ariqz, yeah its known as WOL (Wake On LAN)
[02:32] <veovis_muaddib> ariqz: Look up WOL
[02:32] <veovis_muaddib> Beat me to it
[02:32] <ariqz> thanks
[02:33] <psycho_oreos> :)
[02:33] <Blueleaf> i cant see the partition from windows so i cant find files that way
[02:33] <ubuntu> never ever aloow WOL enabled
[02:34] <Blueleaf> if i reinstall will it overwrite all my files
[02:34] <ubuntu> virus entrypoint
[02:34] <psycho_oreos> Blueleaf, that's the catch with windows, they support less than a handful of filesystems
[02:34] <veovis_muaddib> Blueleaf: Chances are your ubuntu partitions are ext4 unless you did them manually, and Windows and OS X have problems reading them even with third party drivers
[02:34] <veovis_muaddib> Blueleaf: What you could do is attach an external drive and then boot from the install cd
[02:34] <veovis_muaddib> But choose try Ubuntu instead of install Ubuntu
[02:34] <veovis_muaddib> Then copy everything over
[02:35] <arrrghhh> psycho_oreos, i found a guide on compiling brcm80211 driver.  i guess i'll try that and see how it goes.
[02:36] <Blueleaf> i tried that but i think i had the wrong distro, i think mine was 10.4 and i have 10.10, i am guessing i need the same distro, huh?
[02:36] <veovis_muaddib> No, it shouldn't matter
[02:36] <ubuntu> when u choose try ubuntu everything on the hdd becomes ab ROFS folder
[02:36] <ubuntu> cant copy or write anything
[02:36] <psycho_oreos> arrrghhh, good luck and hopefully the link does point to the later versions of compat-wireless :) fyi some info about brcm80211 maybe found here: http://wireless.kernel.org/en/users/Drivers/brcm80211
[02:36] <veovis_muaddib> ubuntu, trying to back up, not change
[02:37] <ubuntu> k
[02:37] <jon_athon> So, since upgrading to 10.4, I've noticed that if I have items on each virtual desktop that I'm required to log in for as many desktops as there are items on... is this a known bug?
[02:37] <veovis_muaddib> Sorry Blueleaf, I have to go.  Ask someone how to back up Ubuntu from install disk if you have trouble
[02:37] <jon_athon> that is, when i wake it up from screen saver I have to do that
[02:43] <notanick> ejv, does it show up in services?
[02:46] <notanick> ejv, try "sudo service --status-all" and see if it's there, then you can disable/enable it
[02:47] <Guest98678> hey
[02:47] <notanick> hello Guest98678
[02:47] <python_> I'm running into a problem with my sound I have a intel motherboard that has the sound disabled in the bios and a Audigy 2 Platinum sound card that wont work
[02:47] <python_> I've even tried using the motherboard and still nothing
[02:48] <python_> does anyone know of any sound drivers
[02:48] <python_> cause I tried all the things all the forms and still in a dead end
[02:51] <python_> or does anyone have any idea
[02:51] <craigbass1976> how come when I ssh -X -C host  and then do a firefox, a local version of firefox is fired up, rather than a version that on host?  This only happens sometimes.  Trying to find a rhyme or reason, but it hasn't occured to me yet
[02:51] <craigbass1976> I just fired up gedit from host and confirmed that the files I was looking at to open are in fact on that server
[02:52] <craigbass1976> If I'm running firefox locally, will that screw things up?
[02:52] <notanick> craigbass1976, I have seen that too.  Maybe try a ssh -Y
[02:53] <craigbass1976> notanick, the aggravating thing is that it's sometimes.  Have you noticed it more when you've got ff running locally as well as trying to fire it up remotely?
[02:53] <craigbass1976> notanick, elinks isn't quite cutting it...
[02:53] <nm5tf> is anyone able to run Dangerdeep for longer than 5 minutes without getting a SIGSEGV error???
[02:53] <notanick> craigbass1976, yes, that's my recollection.. hrm, been a few weeks since I saw it
[02:54] <chazbrown> @craigbass1976 isnt -X x11 forwarding, which would open it locally, but be run under the remote severs user... i believe
[02:54] <notanick> craigbass1976, try shutting down your local browser.
[02:54] <Geko> hey everyone is this the ubuntu channel
[02:55] <tumbleweed_> yes
[02:55] <craigbass1976> chazbrown, notanick not sure, but I think I just confirmed that if there aren't any local versions of firefox running, I'm all set.  This does not hold true, however, with gedit.  I had a local one running, and fired up a remote instance no problem
[02:55] <Geko> thanks tumble
[02:55] <notanick> chazbrown, yep, but the remote firefox still interacts with the local X server, and the X server stuff for ff reads something and says" hey, you should run this locally"
[02:55] <craigbass1976> ahhh....
[02:55] <Geko> listen i have a problem iam running a 64 bit ubuntu installtion
[02:55] <craigbass1976> notanick, and gedit doesn't?
[02:55] <Geko> now i am trying to configure compiz
[02:55] <chazbrown> oh i see
[02:55] <notanick> craigbass1976, not that I have seen
[02:56] <Geko> specifically the burn effect
[02:56] <Geko> when i try to make changes
[02:56] <Geko> it dosn't take effect
[02:56]  * craigbass1976 facepalm
[02:56]  * notanick throws hands up about interactions with gconf and such, hrm
[02:56] <notanick> lol
[02:56] <Geko> for some reason
[02:56]  * shaggy2 shoots notanick with a Nail Gun!!
[02:56] <Geko> what can i do to resolve this issure
[02:56] <notanick> noooo
[02:56] <craigbass1976> shaggy2, careful with those; I work at a lumber yard and have several horror stories...
[02:56] <notanick> craigbass1976, yah, I've only seen  that with firefox
[02:57] <shaggy2> I once was a cabinet maker... try and guys why I am not now
[02:57] <Geko> can anyone help with my problem
[02:57] <mkf00> geko
[02:58] <mkf00> you maybe have to restart the X first..
[02:58] <craigbass1976> notanick, how about epiphany, seen issues with that?  my other issue is that ff keeps kind of locking up.  screen goes dark, but if I wait a minute it will revive
[02:58] <nm5tf> geko: try stating your problem all on 1 line & maybe someone will take a look
[02:58] <Geko> sure
[02:59]  * notanick has an idea... try disabling the gconfd server
[02:59] <craigbass1976> notanick, any idea what the lightest lightweight browser is?
[03:00] <craigbass1976> notanick, that isnt text only...
[03:00] <niles> lynx
[03:00] <notanick> craigbass1976, the gconfd stuff and/or gconftool-2 if the remote system is Gnome
[03:00] <craigbass1976> niles, I knew that was coming...
[03:00]  * notanick nods to niles
[03:00] <notanick> lol
[03:00] <notanick> curl
[03:00] <chazbrown> lol i was going to say lynx but yeah, curl
[03:01] <Geko> I need some assistance guys. I new to the Linux scene. Iam running ubuntu 64 bit and iam trying to configure compiz. Now when i try to make changes to the burn effect or any other effect  it does not go through even though even though it says that it is working. what could be the cause of the problem
[03:01] <niles> curl, acually
[03:01] <niles> I dont use lynx
[03:01] <chazbrown> lynx is awesome i remember using it back in the day
[03:01] <chazbrown> and its great for when you cannot start X
[03:01] <Geko> lol  sorry niles i ment linux
[03:01] <ubuntu> midori rocks
[03:01] <ubuntu> so does rekonq
[03:02] <notanick> craigbass1976, I had to disable gconfd doing upgrade to bring my Evolution email settings in.  It may be intimately involved with all Gnome-caressed apps, so maybe try stopping gconfd and seeing if FF on the remote system will display.  Mind you, gconfd gets restarted automatically, but something to try initially
[03:02] <ubuntu> opera anyone?
[03:03] <notanick> chrome?
[03:03] <ubuntu> it's the safest
[03:03] <niles> google chrome
[03:03] <ubuntu> chrome is easy to use and nice
[03:03] <ubuntu> but its not secure
[03:03] <notanick> indeed
[03:03] <niles> true
[03:03] <arrrghhh> psycho_oreos, it says "Kernel modules: wl, brcm80211" but "Kernel driver in use: wl" <---- is that wrong?
[03:03] <niles> bad ad blocker
[03:03] <craigbass1976> notanick, it will display if I shut it down locally first; once the remote is running I can fire it up locally.  Now I'm wondering, because the connection is on the slow side, which browser will work a little better.  I was about to take dillo for a spin
[03:03] <ubuntu> bad everything
[03:03] <niles> no working popup fiter

[03:03] <craigbass1976> ubuntu, what, you think google is watching you or something?
[03:04] <craigbass1976> :)
[03:04] <notanick> craigbass1976, slow connection use local browser
[03:04] <ubuntu> incognito= in cognito LOL
[03:04] <zerov32> does anyone know how to fix sound problems
[03:04] <ubuntu> no i dont
[03:04] <zerov32> using Audigy Platinum
[03:04] <ubuntu> it is just bad
[03:04] <notanick> craigbass1976, HTTP is probably faster than X protocols
[03:04] <ubuntu> google watches u anyway
[03:04] <ubuntu> everywahere
[03:04] <notanick> craigbass1976, unless you need the tunnel
[03:04] <craigbass1976> notanick, but I can't see what's running on that private lamp server if I run a local browser.  Oops, maybe I should have said what I was doing from the get go
[03:04] <Geko> can anyone help me with my compiz issue
[03:05] <ubuntu> any browser
[03:05] <tuxhack> i just removed two disks from a hardware raid card (raid mirror), and made same modifications on both disks.. now if I connect them back will the raid demand a reset ? or a rebuild ?
[03:05] <ubuntu> but check it out
[03:05] <ubuntu> opera has officially only 1 loophole
[03:05] <psycho_oreos> arrrghhh, it is, though you need to make sure that you have the right firmware for the brcm80211 driver and what not
[03:05] <ubuntu> ff has like ALOT
[03:05] <ubuntu> FF
[03:05] <notanick> craigbass1976, ah, in that case, yeah, you'll have to use the remote browser... would be nice if you could use a different one than firefox
[03:06] <arrrghhh> psycho_oreos, i pulled the git repo for the firmware
[03:06] <niles> ubuntu: whats the loophole
[03:06] <craigbass1976> notanick, no dillo in the repos, I'm trying midori
[03:06] <ubuntu> check out
[03:06] <ubuntu> the FF site
[03:06] <psycho_oreos> arrrghhh, and I presume with that you have compiled and installed the wireless-testing?
[03:06] <ubuntu> anyway
[03:06] <notanick> Geko, sometimes compiz does that... its updates are kind of weird.  You have to make sure that other things are not blocking the activation of the on-screen fire or burn or other features.  YMMV

[03:07]  * notanick nods to ubuntu
[03:07] <Geko> i am fairly new so iam just learning
[03:07]  * notanick hasn't tried midori, installing it also
[03:07] <removingADSENSE> off topic:  just letting people know.. MSFT now has 38% of search as of tonight. Up from 31% a mere 2 weeks ago. Google has only done this to themselves, and Adcenter will eat Adwords' lunch. I am also REMOVING all Adsense ads from ALL sites. I encourage all Drupalers to do the same. there are alternatives.
[03:08] <notanick> Geko, try rebooting if you haven't already.  Plus, make sure that there aren't any other theme managers running, and compiz has a traybar icon now too, which I recommend.
[03:08] <psycho_oreos> arrrghhh, hmm I suppose that guide seems to be useful. If everything works, try unloading the wl driver and load the brcm80211 driver. Once that is working blacklist wl and maybe remove the package if needed be

[03:08] <Nisorin> Hello. I asedk someone on #ubuntu-beginners to help me with a problem regarding Windows 7 no longer being bootable after installing Ubuntu 10.10 Studio. I was told to use the Windows Recovery Disc to reinstall the Windows bootloader, then to reinstall the Grub bootloader over it. The person was not sure if I needed to download a fixmbr.exe file from Microsoft or not, and directed me here.
[03:08] <arrrghhh> psycho_oreos, rmmod?  sorry not used to this.
[03:09] <craigbass1976> notanick, looks pretty familiar, not sure why it's supposed to be lightweight, but it does seem peppier over ssh than ff or epiphany
[03:09] <Aikar> anyone here use rabbitvcs with 10.10 64bit? i installed from the ppa but got no menus or icons for repos. restarted nautilus too
[03:09] <unreturned> peoples, how to bind joypad click to click on keyboard?
[03:09] <psycho_oreos> arrrghhh, rmmod works but ideally modprobe -r and to load use modprobe (if the driver is not installed then use insmod followed by the path to the driver)
[03:09] <notanick> craigbass1976, roger that. looks very nice
[03:09] <arrrghhh> ok

[03:09] <Geko> so notanick how do i check if something is interfering
[03:10]  * notanick points at ubuntu and says, " you are evil and now have corrupted me with this midori thing. niicee"
[03:10] <mrroth> is thier a way I can manage with three monitors at work, to have on one screen, windows, on the other osx, and on the third ubuntu desktop
[03:10] <Geko> although why would something be interfering i just did a fresh install
[03:10] <madsailor> Nisorin, do you have the original win7 install disc?
[03:10] <notanick> Geko, Hrm, not sure alas.  What ubuntu?
[03:10] <craigbass1976> notanick, doesn't hold a candle to IE5 though...  That was the best!

[03:11] <gpc> mrothhh: assuming you are running two of the OS'es in VM take a look at xrandr I believe is the name of the app
[03:11] <notanick> Geko, well, I just put 10.10 on my system and did the Compiz Fusion thing a bit ago.  You have restricted drivers?
[03:11] <madsailor> Nisorin, if you boot from that disk windows recovery will come up , and there will be an option to recover your win7 install
[03:12] <madsailor> Nisorin, once you have windows booting again, then you can install grub over it
[03:12] <Nisorin> Alright. Still waiting for the Windows Recovery to load.
[03:12] <notanick> *Additional Drivers, not Restricted
[03:12] <Geko> i dont know what restricted drivers are but i installed my drivers when a popup came up from my machine and said to activait drivers and so i did
[03:12] <Nisorin> Will using the recover Win7 install option delete the data on the drive/partition?
[03:12] <notanick> Geko, here's a starting point I used:
[03:12] <arrrghhh> psycho_oreos, doesn't seem to be working at all now... bah.  i probably have to uninstall the driver that ubuntu installed eh?
[03:13]  * wiw would like to know how to unencrypt his home folder
[03:13] <madsailor> Nisorin, no, as long as you tell it to recover, it just re-writes the boot sector
[03:13] <madsailor> not data
[03:13] <notanick> Geko, Google "compiz fusion 10.10" and the first article from howtoforge is pretty good
[03:13] <Nisorin> Awesome, thank you.
[03:13] <notanick> Geko, ok, good

[03:18] <gpc> craigbass1976: right...
[03:18] <ake21v> I type alsamixer in the terminal and it brings up PulseAudio for the device
[03:18] <root__> you sure?
[03:18] <chazbrown> @craigbass1976 if you are logged in then notify-send ["title"] "message"
[03:18] <psycho_oreos> arrrghhh, something isn't right there, it seems like wl wasn't removed and there were no traces of brcm80211 being loaded
[03:18] <ake21v> and the device is Audigy 2 Platinum
[03:19] <ake21v> its set right in the sound preferences but still no sound
[03:19] <arrrghhh> psycho_oreos, yea it doesn't seem to be loading it.  perhaps i messed a step up, lemme go thru it again.
[03:19] <root__> help
[03:19] <notanick> doh, beat me to it... notify-send
[03:19] <ake21v> i tried clicking on the sound icon on the start menu bar and still
[03:19] <ake21v> nothing
[03:19] <psycho_oreos> arrrghhh, you appended sudo when it came to unloading wl and loading of brcm80211 right?
[03:19] <ake21v> i tried enable analog/digital and still nothing
[03:20] <ake21v> tried everything to do on the forums and still nothing
[03:20] <craigbass1976> chazbrown, is there anything a bit prettier than xmessage?
[03:20] <chazbrown> @craigbass1976 you might have to use xmessage since i dont think notify-send is installed on ubu ntu
[03:20] <arrrghhh> psycho_oreos, oh... i thought the brcm80211 was loaded.  d'oh let me try to force it.
[03:20] <Geko> this dosn't really help
[03:20] <Geko> i installed it properly
[03:20] <ake21v> tried disabling the onboard motherboard sound and still nothing, if i use the mothboard sound port still nothing]
[03:20] <ake21v> does ubunut support sound
[03:20] <psycho_oreos> arrrghhh, make sure to unload wl first, brcm80211 will not work if wl is in the way
[03:20] <notanick> ake21v, I looked about on google, but the Creative open source site is not responding (?) so I dunno... looks like there's some stuff from the horse's mouth... if it's not too out-of-date
[03:20] <Geko> when i try to customize the time for the effect
[03:21] <craigbass1976> chazbrown, zenity... Alreay found it
[03:21] <Geko> i move the tab
[03:21] <Geko> and it dosn't make the changes
[03:21] <Geko> that is my problem
[03:21] <chazbrown> @craigbass1976 great, that works
[03:22] <arrrghhh> psycho_oreos, hrm.  i see nothing in dmesg after the PCI INT A disabled
[03:22] <HeTaL> Does anyone have any PIC18 simulator recommendations? Something that can simulate a PIC18F4550
[03:22] <HeTaL> And something that can run on Ubuntu
[03:22] <psycho_oreos> arrrghhh, that's when you unloaded wl driver via sudo and loaded the brcm80211 driver via sudo right?
[03:22] <HeTaL> GTKExtras don't compile under Ubuntu anymore.
[03:22] <notanick> Geko, that interface for compiz config settings is kinda weird.  I have seen that too.  Make sure that things are enabled using the buttons on the right side of the window, and also that there aren't any conflicting keyboard or mouse combos that would reset or change things
[03:23] <arrrghhh> psycho_oreos, sudo modprobe brcm80211 rigth?
[03:23] <arrrghhh> right
[03:23] <arrrghhh> i also tried sudo modprobe mac80211
[03:23] <psycho_oreos> arrrghhh, yes but again did you unload wl driver?
[03:23] <root__> anyone here?
[03:23] <notanick> hi root__ yah

[03:24] <arrrghhh> psycho_oreos, yup.  no wireless networks are showing
[03:24] <CommanderViral> Need some help fixing something in my Kubuntu installation. I installed the official ATI Catalyst drivers for my ATI Radeon HD 4200, hoping it would improve performance with Minecraft. Instead it broke any 3D support I had and any sort of application that involves OpenGL crashes.
[03:24] <psycho_oreos> arrrghhh, checked it via lsmod to make sure wl isn't there?
[03:24] <CommanderViral> How would I rollback to the default drivers?
[03:24] <CommanderViral> Or make these ATI ones work.
[03:25] <CommanderViral> I'm using Kubuntu 10.10
[03:25] <craigbass1976> hehe.  can't wait to "help" my wife using zenity.  She's wised up to my facebook antics; shuts the speakers off to avoid the popping noise when I message her
[03:25] <psycho_oreos> root__, I don't accept uninvited PMs, ask your question here instead
[03:25] <notanick> Geko, Also, check your Admin and Prefs menus under system to make sure that Emerald theme manager is not installed unless you want it to be.  It might or might not be a good thing... I used it under 9.04, but 10.10 I didn't need any help from theme stuff.
[03:25] <leapy0yo> hi
[03:25] <Geko> for instance i checked the box for randomly colored burn effect
[03:25] <leapy0yo> for my laptop screen some windows are too big to fit, so i cannot see the conformation at the bottom to say "okay" or "yes"
[03:26] <gunndawg> Anyone used Plymouth Manager to change their plymouth and does it work well ?
[03:26] <Geko> and when i close the window
[03:26] <root__> how to change chart into chinese
[03:26] <Geko> thae effect is still red
[03:26]  * notanick recommends getting NVIDIA to make ATI work.  
[03:26]  * notanick runs away
[03:26] <CommanderViral> I had no choice in the card.
[03:26] <notanick> CommanderViral, ah, I hear ya
[03:26] <CommanderViral> Pre-built laptop.
[03:26] <psycho_oreos> root__, which chart?
[03:26] <arrrghhh> psycho_oreos, i don't see it
[03:26] <Geko> emerald is not installed
[03:26] <leapy0yo> anyone know?
[03:26] <arrrghhh> !cn | root__
[03:26] <notanick> CommanderViral, like my box at work... RHEL with ATI, ugh
[03:27] <leapy0yo> windows are too big for my laptop ... how can i make it so i can see the full window temporary?
[03:27] <gpc> !ibus > root__
[03:27] <psycho_oreos> arrrghhh, hmm ok, and when you loaded brcm80211 it didn't give you errors? what about entries in lsmod? does it show brcm80211?
[03:27] <Geko> i have compiz. ccsm installed
[03:27] <Geko> thats all
[03:27] <notanick> Geko, that is really weird.  Alas, I don't know what else to recommend :(
[03:27] <CommanderViral> Yeah, this thing worked fine with Windows regarding graphics. Linux games run a bit slower. I figured the driver was just bad.
[03:27] <root__> thank you
[03:27] <arrrghhh> psycho_oreos, this is odd... i guess i'll give you the output, i don't get it.
[03:27] <Geko> i know i have tested this
[03:27] <Geko> before
[03:27] <Geko> and it never happened
[03:27] <notanick> hrm
[03:27] <Geko> like this
[03:27] <psycho_oreos> arrrghhh, ok, make sure to pastebin it
[03:28] <arrrghhh> psycho_oreos, haha i know.
[03:28] <gunndawg> Does anyone have experience using Plymouth Manager to change their plymouth/boot up screen?
[03:28] <Geko> i also had a problem where i couldn't enable the extra animations
[03:28] <Geko> so i had to download some kind of extra package
[03:28] <Geko> to get them
[03:28] <CommanderViral> Any help with my driver problems? Maybe?
[03:28] <Geko> now i got the animations
[03:28] <Geko> but i cant adjust the extra animations
[03:28] <Geko> do you think i need another package
[03:28] <Mannyuel> anyone know of a good webcam conferencing program?
[03:29] <notanick> Geko, okay.  Extra animations... hrm.  Which feature is it again?
[03:29] <psycho_oreos> CommanderViral, just a random guess, I presume you are using fglrx drivers? if so have you checked out community docs on fglrx?
[03:29] <pooky> the network indicator doesn't seem to work properly for me, I can't see to configure vpn connections or anything, advice?
[03:29] <Geko> the extra animations give you the effects like fire and beamup
[03:29] <CommanderViral> They would be fglrx. Google never led me to such a page. Maybe I should check that.
[03:29] <psycho_oreos> !fglrx
[03:30] <notanick> Geko, ah, I don't remember a separate one for that.  Maybe a OpenGL issue?  Anything in your logs?
[03:30] <gunndawg> Has anyone used Plymouth Manager before ?

[03:32] <Geko> do i need it
[03:32] <psycho_oreos> arrrghhh, ok I need pastebin output of modinfo brcm80211
[03:32] <arrrghhh> psycho_oreos, and AFAIK with wl it was eth1...
[03:32] <arrrghhh> sure
[03:32] <CommanderViral> I have the drivers installed...they just don't work right.
[03:32] <notanick> Geko, I don't, but I know there are some new packages surrounding compiz to make it work better, like the tray bar
[03:32] <arrrghhh> psycho_oreos, http://paste.ubuntu.com/559770/
[03:32] <psycho_oreos> arrrghhh, yeah wlan0 should be the interface for bcm4313 via brcm80211, ethX was used by wl driver
[03:33] <notanick> doh! pizza iz here
[03:33] <arrrghhh> psycho_oreos, ok... i have a wlan0, but it doesn't function.  iwlist scan says nothing, and wicd says it sees nothing as well.

[03:33] <notanick> np
[03:34] <psycho_oreos> arrrghhh, hmm, unload brcm80211 driver and try this sudo modprobe brcm80211 msglevel=9 phymsglevel=9
[03:34] <LifeEscalade> hello everyone
[03:34] <psycho_oreos> arrrghhh, might need sudo in front of those, failing that the device may need to be up to scan
[03:34] <DarezGhost> psycho_oreos: i think i'm having a similar problem. can you please get me going :P i have a bcm4322 adapter
[03:34] <LifeEscalade> im in a sort of a pickle and i was wondering if someone could help me out?
[03:35] <xangua> !ask | LifeEscalade
[03:35] <psycho_oreos> DarezGhost, there's no fix for bcm4322, brcm80211 won't support it neither will b43
[03:35] <DarezGhost> psycho_oreos: but the BCM STA driver lists it as supported
[03:36] <psycho_oreos> DarezGhost, correct, broadcom's sta driver known as wl :) which I don't support because its functionality is limited
[03:36] <techitch> hey guys, i'm having this problem - i mount a windows share using cifs and fstab..this works fine..i'm mounting the shares to /mnt - i need to get access to these folders from another application running within a chroot so im trying to mount /mnt using bind to another folder inside a chroot however when i mount it i cannot see the contents of the windows shares...
[03:36] <LifeEscalade> So I accidentally omitted my /var/www folder using cp /var/www trying to copy... there any way to undo that one?
[03:36] <CommanderViral> Okay. This link regarding the binary drivers does not help.
[03:36] <rbil> can't connect to twitter with gwibber. what's the secret? Ubuntu 9.10
[03:36] <DarezGhost> psycho_oreos: but should i not be able to see the interface?
[03:36] <CommanderViral> There is no information on fixing fglrx
[03:37] <psycho_oreos> DarezGhost, it should be named as ethX (where X is the number from 0-whatever number)
[03:37] <rbil> do I need to do something from the twitter site side?
[03:37] <xangua> rbil: use ubuntu lucid or forward that has gwibber with #oauth support
[03:37] <delinquentme> if i build a program from its source code .. does that build it for whatever machine arch (x64) i happen to run?
[03:37] <psycho_oreos> CommanderViral, there might be when it comes to tweaking
[03:37] <arrrghhh> psycho_oreos, weird, it locked up hard on me.  i was pressing the key for wlan cards on/off... i just tried it again and it's not doing it now.  very odd.  perhaps this laptop just isn't ready for linux...
[03:38] <CommanderViral> I don't see any on that page.
[03:38] <gunndawg> Anyone know how to use Plymouth Manager ?
[03:38] <DarezGhost> psycho_oreos: I can see eth0 and eth1 in ifconfig , but I dodn't see anything in the wireless connections o.O
[03:38] <dl2agon> is there a way to make ubuntu 10 desktop in to a cluster manchine ?
[03:38] <psycho_oreos> arrrghhh, wait you pressed the key for wlan to be on and off was before or after it locked up and was the lockup because of the command I told you to run?
[03:38] <techitch> anyone got ideas?
[03:38] <psycho_oreos> DarezGhost, iwconfig will tell you which interface has wireless capability
[03:39] <arrrghhh> psycho_oreos, i have no clue what the lockup was associated to.  i just tried flipping the card on/off again, with wl removed... didn't happen again.
[03:39] <DarezGhost> psycho_oreos: thats right. i did that, but it doesn't seem to be showing up in the network connections. So currently it says Access point: not-associated. how do i actually use this interface
[03:40] <Geko> i fixed it
[03:40] <mrroth> I have a three monitors at work, my os host is windows xp
[03:40] <gunndawg> Could someone help me with Plymouth Manager or teach me how to change my plymouth/boot screen?
[03:40] <psycho_oreos> CommanderViral, hmm :/ maybe its for older open sourced driver, I believe the problem is when it was loading into Xorg is where you lose 3D and what not functionality
[03:40] <mrroth> is thier a way I can have ubuntu desktop on the third monitor
[03:40] <mrroth> at work
[03:40] <Geko> not i fixed the problem
[03:40] <mrroth> is thier a way I can have ubuntu desktop on the third monitor, on my windows xp workstation at owork ??? any ideas
[03:40] <psycho_oreos> arrrghhh, what about the commmand I mentioned?
[03:40] <Geko> aparently i wasnt really running compiz
[03:40] <CommanderViral> Yeah. The Community Documentation told me to run fglrxinfo to see if it works right.
[03:40] <Geko> so i had to place a command
[03:41] <Geko> into the terminal
[03:41] <Geko> and it worked
[03:41] <Geko> compiz --replace
[03:41] <FloodBot1> Geko: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
[03:41] <Geko> this is the command
[03:41] <psycho_oreos> DarezGhost, which one was it that said Access point: not-associated?
[03:41] <rww> !enter
[03:41] <arrrghhh> psycho_oreos, the modinfo?
[03:41] <DarezGhost> psycho_oreos: eth1
[03:41] <Geko> sorry flood
[03:41] <psycho_oreos> arrrghhh, no the modprobe with very verbose output
[03:41] <arrrghhh> psycho_oreos, never saw that one
[03:41] <psycho_oreos> DarezGhost, so eth1 is the wireless interface, umm maybe the interface needs to be up
[03:42] <psycho_oreos> arrrghhh, ahh ok lemme repaste it
[03:42] <CommanderViral> psycho_oreos, would this say anything that might be what's wrong with the driver? http://pastebin.com/1hDqy7Nj
[03:42] <DarezGhost> psycho_oreos: how do i get it up :P
[03:42] <psycho_oreos> arrrghhh, hmm, unload brcm80211 driver and try this sudo modprobe brcm80211 msglevel=9 phymsglevel=9
[03:42] <madsailor> Nisorin, how'd it go with the restore?
[03:42] <psycho_oreos> DarezGhost, sudo ifconfig eth1 up
[03:43] <arrrghhh> psycho_oreos, then i'm guessing you want dmesg?
[03:43] <psycho_oreos> CommanderViral, seems like Xorg isn't using fglrx driver. Check Xorg.0.logs
[03:43] <psycho_oreos> arrrghhh, yes if that worked
[03:43] <CommanderViral> What would be the path to Xorg.0.logs?
[03:43] <CommanderViral> /etc/X11/Xorg.0.logs?
[03:43] <psycho_oreos> CommanderViral, /var/log/Xorg.0.log
[03:43] <psycho_oreos> or that
[03:44] <arrrghhh> psycho_oreos, http://paste.ubuntu.com/559772/
[03:45] <techitch> hey guys, i'm having this problem - i mount a windows share using cifs and fstab..this works fine..i'm mounting the shares to /mnt - i need to get access to these folders from another application running within a chroot so im trying to mount /mnt using bind to another folder inside a chroot however when i mount it i cannot see the contents of the windows shares...
[03:45] <Geko> well thanks everyone
[03:45] <CommanderViral> psycho_oreos: This is the contents of that file: http://pastebin.com/ytB2WEZZ
[03:45] <gunndawg> Could someone show me how to use Plymouth Manager or tell me how to manually change my plymouth/boot screen?
[03:45] <psycho_oreos> arrrghhh, ahh that's much better, the output.. so if iwlist returns nothing, check to see if the interface is up via ifconfig
[03:46] <arrrghhh> psycho_oreos, interface is there, but it's not up.
[03:47] <arrrghhh> psycho_oreos, here's the results of those two commands
[03:47] <arrrghhh> http://paste.ubuntu.com/559773/
[03:47] <psycho_oreos> CommanderViral, ok my bad you are using fglrx but some functionalities are disabled, the 2D/3D acceleration is handled by DRI and that has been disabled because of: (WW) fglrx(0): Kernel Module version does *not* match driver.
[03:47] <nodel3d> was wondering if puttinf all my fonts in a .fonts folder in the home directory will work in version 10.10 like it did in  the older version, if not where would i put fonts at for the whole sys to use?
[03:47] <CommanderViral> psycho_oreos: How would I fix that?
[03:48] <psycho_oreos> arrrghhh, well the first part shows that its up and the iwlist was after ifconfig wlan0?
[03:48] <Claydon> Hi
[03:48] <psycho_oreos> CommanderViral, not quite sure, normally you need to recompile the fglrx headers against your kernel headers
[03:48] <arrrghhh> psycho_oreos, sorry for chopping it poorly.  first command is ifconfig, second is iwlist scan
[03:49] <psycho_oreos> CommanderViral, where did you obtained and installed the drivers from?
[03:49] <CommanderViral> psycho_oreos: I obtained the drivers from the AMD website.
[03:49] <pm1> how to download flex
[03:49] <psycho_oreos> arrrghhh, yeah I know that but the output of those was directly as is without you putting the interface down after trying to scan and not pasting that in?
[03:49] <CommanderViral> psycho_oreos: Well, ATI/AMD website. I can provide a link.
[03:50] <psycho_oreos> CommanderViral, you should have probably used jockey instead.. the hardware drivers thing
[03:50] <arrrghhh> psycho_oreos, i'm not sure i follow.  i just did ifconfig and iwlist scan
[03:50] <CommanderViral> psycho_oreos: Yeah. Would using Jockey override the ones I installed from the website?
[03:50] <psycho_oreos> arrrghhh, ahh ok, is there anything new after you did those two commands in dmesg?
[03:50] <psycho_oreos> CommanderViral, it might
[03:51] <psycho_oreos> CommanderViral, better yet is to find a way to uninstall the one from amd/ati website first before using jockey
[03:51] <CommanderViral> psycho_oreos: All right. I think there is an uninstaller provided.
[03:52] <arrrghhh> psycho_oreos, a lot of the same, doesn't look good.   let me pastebin
[03:52] <arrrghhh> psycho_oreos, http://paste.ubuntu.com/559774/
[03:52] <psycho_oreos> CommanderViral, should use that instead :) afaik if you used jockey, chances are the binary driver maybe added to DKMS which will be compiled matching against running kernel regardless of how many usual ubuntu kernel updates you go through
[03:52] <pm1> wish to install flex on Ubuntu 9.04 for installing ns2 plz help
[03:53] <CommanderViral> psycho_oreos: All right. Would I need to be in a terminal without KDE running to uninstall the drivers?
[03:53] <xangua> pm1: jaunty is no longer supported
[03:53] <psycho_oreos> arrrghhh, hmm not too sure what to say about those, then again repeatedly pressing wlan button won't really help. The other thing one may also need to consider is the probability of rfkill
[03:54] <Ricket> My laptop has a wireless interface and a wired interface. The wireless is connected to a router with internet and I can browse fine. The wired I want to connect via crossover cable to another computer. When I do so, the other computer is reachable, but websites are unreachable. But as soon as I unplug the cable, internet is available again. How can I route only one subnet through eth0 (wired) and everything else through eth1?
[03:54] <psycho_oreos> CommanderViral, possibly yes
[03:54] <arrrghhh> psycho_oreos, that's the thing, i haven't been pressing the button...
[03:54] <arrrghhh> and what do you mean rfkill?
[03:55] <psycho_oreos> arrrghhh, weird the log was saying something about some key being pressed.
[03:55] <LifeEscalade> anyone know how to remit a directory? I accidentally omitted /var/www trying to copy using cp.
[03:55] <arrrghhh> psycho_oreos, yea i see that.  i'm not sure what that is, might be the touchpad on/off button i have been hitting
[03:56] <CommanderViral> psycho_oreos: I think I uninstalled the drivers without logging out. Do I need to reconfigure X at all before rebooting so I can still use KDE?
[03:56] <ezy> hello good folks...trying to parse mp3 tags and some tracks show us having no tag but when played in music player it shows title, artist etc...Where does the player pull this infos from ? please help
[03:56] <arrrghhh> psycho_oreos, i have 2 more in dmesg, but i didn't hit the wireless key...
[03:56] <psycho_oreos> arrrghhh, its normally a driver responsible for turning on radio on the wireless device. Its there for laptop users so that they can disable/enable wireless at will. Normally the built-in stable kernel drivers will show information about radio disabled or rfkill unavailable, etc
[03:56] <arrrghhh> psycho_oreos, so... what can i do?  looks bleak TBH
[03:56] <psycho_oreos> CommanderViral, normally those should be autoprobed
[03:57] <almoxarife> Ricket: both pc's have wifi?
[03:57] <CommanderViral> psycho_oreos: So, just go on and reboot without running any commands?
[03:57] <ezy> or a channel that deals with ID3 tagging
[03:57] <psycho_oreos> arrrghhh, yeah something is wrong :) its showing up information about invalid mac address which lead me to thinking rfkill is either unavailable or invalid
[03:58] <arrrghhh> psycho_oreos, can i do anything?
[03:58] <psycho_oreos> CommanderViral, yes give that a shot and hopefully you should be using radeon driver iirc. From there just install fglrx from jockey
[03:58] <Ricket> almoxarife: Yes, internet connection sharing didn't work though
[03:58] <arrrghhh> psycho_oreos, he's my neighbor, and is constantly breaking his windows install because he just clicks on things at random.  i need to put something on this thing that he won't break.
[03:58] <jankko> j
[03:58] <trism> ezy: might want to look at the file in kid3, it may have v1 tags but not v2, or the other way around, and you're reading the wrong ones
[03:59] <psycho_oreos> arrrghhh, hmm at this point I could suggest asking in #linux-wireless or even asking on the mailing-list. For the time being I guess you may need to go back to using wl
[03:59] <EnigmaticCoder> I'm looking for good linux and programming websites. Does anyone who uses delicious.com care to share their bookmarks w/ me?
[03:59] <santhosh> how do i install xampp in command line
[03:59] <jankko> hai Iam John
[03:59] <mbvpixies78> Can anyone help me tweak my software firewall?  Enabled, I lose the ability to connect to the internet.  I'm using Firestarter, but if you want to walk me through another firewall setup I'm all ears
[03:59] <almoxarife> Ricket: if both pcs have wifi then have both use the router, then it's a matter of sharing what ever folders
[03:59] <rww> ubottu: xampp | santhosh
[03:59] <arrrghhh> psycho_oreos, bah.  well, i appreciate all the help!
[04:01] <burkey_> is anyone using the picasa uploader for facebook if so how did you get it working.  mine freezes when uploading pictures
[04:01] <mbvpixies78> I know it seems obvious--  enable http in and out for firewall to allow internet, but I did that...  anything else I should check?
[04:01] <almoxarife> mbvpixies78: firestarter defaults to 'allow out' did you change it?
[04:01] <psycho_oreos> arrrghhh, the dmesg output of those are really handy however. Though like I said the brcm80211 driver is still very new
[04:01] <xangua> burkey_: why not use a native tool¿
[04:01] <mbvpixies78> almoxarife:  No I'm pretty sure I didn't--  I went through the setup wizard
[04:02] <burkey_> xangua:  what do you recommend
[04:02] <mbvpixies78> almoxarife:  My outbound traffic policy is permissive and there are no denials entered
[04:03] <almoxarife> mbvpixies78: before you installed firestarter I assume you had internet access?
[04:03] <CommanderViral> psycho_oreos: Okay. The reboot has me running the radeon drivers I think. 3D still does not work.
[04:03] <mbvpixies78> almoxarife:  yes, and I have it while it's disabled
[04:03] <mbvpixies78> (it being firestarter
[04:03] <mbvpixies78> )
[04:04] <psycho_oreos> CommanderViral, that's expected when using radeon, its a free driver that tries to support as many cards as possible without breaking up xorg :) from there just install fglrx via jockey and things should then work
[04:04] <LifeEscalade> anyone know how to undo a cp command? when i ran cp /var/www /home/user/www it showed that /var/www had been omitted. any help is appreciated.
[04:04] <mbvpixies78> almoxarife:  did I mess up in adding my other local network computers in inbound?  Does it limit it to them and no internet servers?
[04:05] <dirty> hello .. can anyone help me please.. i`m trying to access my fresh install ubuntu desktop 10.10 from another computer in my network and it`s not working.. is there anything i need to do before this will work? Terminal on the ubuntu pc is working fine
[04:05] <CommanderViral> psycho_oreos: Is there a command I can run to insure I'm running the radeon driver?
[04:05] <mbvpixies78> almoxarife:  I have http, dhcp, dns, https, smb allowed for inbound services, no others
[04:05] <rww> LifeEscalade: not sure what you want to undo, given that that cp command would do exactly nothing. You probably want cp -R.
[04:05] <almoxarife> mbvpixies78: your inbound needs to be the router or source of outside the network
[04:05] <psycho_oreos> CommanderViral, not exactly no, only logs may show it
[04:05] <psycho_oreos> CommanderViral, well none that I know of anyway
[04:06] <n0a1ias> is there a command to view all usernames on my computer?
[04:06] <almoxarife> mbvpixies78: your network is 192.168.1.1?
[04:06] <mbvpixies78> almoxarife: 0.1
[04:06] <LifeEscalade> rww: the thing is though, i tried to copy my /var/www directory to a more accessible one and at the end of the command it output that /var/www was omitted. now i cant access my content i was hosting
[04:07] <mbvpixies78> almoxarife: Ok, I got rid of the server list and just putmy router (192.168.0.1 and now it works, thanks a bunch!
[04:07] <almoxarife> mbvpixies78: i used rule 192.168.0/24 allow all  for everything behind the router
[04:07] <psycho_oreos> n0a1ias, cat /etc/passwd| awk '{FS=":"; print $1}'
[04:07] <mbvpixies78> almoxarife: remind me what the 24 means?
[04:08] <dirty> can anyone please help ? i`m kind of in a hurry .. and i really need this so i can access it from where i`m going..
[04:08] <CommanderViral> psycho_oreos: Well, Jockey is giving me errors. "SystemError: installArchives() failed"
[04:08] <rww> LifeEscalade: It wasn't because of that cp command. cp without -R with a directory as the source /doesn't do anything/
[04:08] <mbvpixies78> almoxarife: I set it like that, w/24 for smb, but it's "everyone" for the other services
[04:08] <LifeEscalade> rww: so then to copy directory would be cp -R /var/www /home/usr/www ?
[04:09] <root__> why does the system i setup on the U disk cannot save document at the same time
[04:09] <rww> LifeEscalade: yes
[04:09] <almoxarife> mbvpixies78: someone else can explain the technical of it, what it does though is allow anything within your network, behind the router to connect, so that youdont have to add specific ports
[04:09] <LifeEscalade> rww: thank you! now all I have to figure out is why my content isnt loading anymore ;P
[04:09] <psycho_oreos> CommanderViral, something is broken, not sure exactly on how to fix it, are you sure the uninstaller did a clean job of removing traces of its driver?
[04:10] <CommanderViral> psycho_oreos: I'm not sure. I think I had both the Jockey drivers and ATI drivers installed at the same time for some reason.
[04:10] <mbvpixies78> almoxarife:  ok, thanks.  One other thing, maybe you know--  I get "looking up" any time I connect to a web site which makes it take longer to load.  I flushed the DNS cache but it still does this..  any ideas?
[04:10] <almoxarife> mbvpixies78: everyone is just that, unless you are behind a hardware firewall
[04:10] <psycho_oreos> CommanderViral, and you should have said that
[04:10] <CommanderViral> psycho_oreos: Didn't think about it. Yeah. I probably broke something.
[04:10] <psycho_oreos> CommanderViral, reinstall? :p
[04:11] <mbvpixies78> almoxarife:  I'm behind a router that handles PPPoE (the AT&T modem just passes the signal to the router)
[04:11] <almoxarife> mbvpixies78: looking up? you mean the browser says that?
[04:11] <CommanderViral> So much stuff to back-up. Crap.
[04:11] <mbvpixies78> almoxarife:  yes, lengthy process
[04:11] <almoxarife> mbvpixies78: that router has a built in firewall?
[04:11] <CommanderViral> psycho_oreo: I'm guessing there's nothing I can do to fix it without a reinstall?
[04:12] <n0a1ias> thanks psycho_oreos
[04:12] <mbvpixies78> almoxarife:  yes and I'm fairly familiar with configuring it, but might have something wrong
[04:12] <dirty> anyone? please..
[04:12] <mbvpixies78> almoxarife:  dns server issue, right?
[04:12] <jimblah> Anyone here ever clone an awesome application that only runs in windows?
[04:12] <psycho_oreos> CommanderViral, there probably is but there'll be lots of messing around looking for potential sources of issues. There might be an alternative such as maybe forcing the reinstall of fglrx driver via dpkg which can be nasty and may not work
[04:12] <mbvpixies78> almoxarife:  or dns cache not filling out
[04:12] <almoxarife> mbvpixies78: I use dnsmasq as a dns cache, but if the dns server you are pointed at is slow then I imagine it would seem slow
[04:13] <mbvpixies78> almoxarife:  is openDNS slow?  I was thinking of using it if I haven't already configured it that way
[04:13] <almoxarife> mbvpixies78: according to a tool I used last , YES
[04:13] <CommanderViral> psycho_oreo: I'm fine with that. It'll build character anyway. Maybe I could reinstall the driver from the website package and use it's uninstaller.
[04:14] <mbvpixies78> almoxarife:  maybe just clear static DNS and see what happens?
[04:14] <CommanderViral> psycho_oreo: Which could cleanly uninstall it?
[04:14] <almoxarife> mbvpixies78: you really want to use the closest dns server, most probably the one served up by your isp
[04:14] <predator_x> hi all.. when i play music in vlc media player
[04:14] <predator_x> the music get stuck..
[04:14] <mbvpixies78> almoxarife:  that's the thing--  it's listed first in static DNS on the router
[04:14] <predator_x> doesnt happen with other players
[04:15] <psycho_oreos> CommanderViral, there's no point in doing that :) the problem is that both the driver provided by jockey and by that website are identically the same along with a few other stuff specific to each of their own
[04:15] <predator_x> what could be the problem? same with videos too
[04:15] <czardoz> predator_x, try removing it completely and installing again
[04:15] <almoxarife> mbvpixies78: you are using static dns then you really need to insure the list is a good one
[04:15] <AbhiJit> and preferable get the latest version too predator_x
[04:15] <CommanderViral> psycho_oreo: Well. Great. I'm a 'tard at times...
[04:15] <czardoz> windows mentality :P
[04:15] <psycho_oreos> CommanderViral, and when you uninstalled the website's drivers you've most likely also removed the driver by jockey
[04:15] <CommanderViral> psycho_oreo: I uninstalled using Jockey. Not the website uninstaller.
[04:16] <almoxarife> mbvpixies78: let me see if I still have the tool for dns speed testing
[04:16] <jimblah> Anyone ever use Orbiter 2010 and would like to bring it to linux?
[04:16] <psycho_oreos> CommanderViral, well again you would have made the website's installer redundant as it may try to look for the driver that it installed with which was removed automatically by jockey :)
[04:16] <mbvpixies78_> almoxarife: I do have DDNS because this is a server using TZO to provide DNS updates, but that shouldn't affect web traffic for browsing I wouldn't think
[04:17] <CommanderViral> psycho_oreo: Possibly. I think I'll just try the website drivers again. If they don't work, I'll just do a quick back-up and reinstall Ubuntu.
[04:17] <predator_x> @czardoz : did that..same problem
[04:17] <psycho_oreos> CommanderViral, ok
[04:18] <CommanderViral> psycho_oreo: Thanks for the help.
[04:18] <madsailor> jimblah, you can try running it under wine
[04:18] <psycho_oreos> CommanderViral, nw and good luck
[04:18] <predator_x> removed it and reinstalled it in ubuntu software center
[04:18] <Kevin147> I'm having trouble with my laptop. I have a Lenovo G550 and the scroll on the touchpad isn't working. My friend has the same laptop and his works so I don't see why mine wouldn't. I'm running Ubuntu 10.10.
[04:18] <predator_x> !czardoz
[04:19] <predator_x> music and video gets stuck in vlc player.. just removed and installed it again..same problem
[04:19] <hunterkasy> I am wondering if their is a way I can save files in the / file system
[04:19] <jimblah> madsailor, its not the same, I've tried with multiple versions of wine, I've followed there directions at their forum. 5 fps is a no go
[04:20] <almoxarife> mbvpixies78_: to verify your dns servers are at their best I suggest google 'nameserver' , should take you to a useful tool
[04:20] <mbvpixies78_> almoxarife: will do ty
[04:20] <jimblah> Then they insult linux asa crappy os and ubuntu as a distro, not in their forum but in their irc
[04:21] <venkata> ubuntu
[04:21] <czardoz> +r
[04:21] <madsailor> jimblah, yeah, 5 fps is rough.  Only options are to run win in a vm, or talk to the orbiter devs and get them to make a linux port
[04:22] <jimblah> Its worth bring to linux and mac, but the creator is too busy in medical research
[04:22] <almoxarife> mbvpixies78_: sorry wrong name, its namebench from code.google.com
[04:22] <jimblah> the addon developers are rude
[04:23] <jimblah> I hate dual booting, I live in ubuntu
[04:23] <Aikar> weird issue: my workspace switcher is no longer showing on 2 rows after rebooting, making it huge :/
[04:23] <madsailor> jimblah, like I said, if you own a copy of a win version that orbiter will run on you can run it in a vm
[04:23] <jimblah> with 3d acceleration?
[04:24] <madsailor> jimblah, , worth a try
[04:24] <gpc> nope
[04:24] <jimblah> Its a space sim
[04:24] <gpc> no 3d in VM
[04:24] <Aikar> hmm, had to delete the one on the 2nd monitors panel and readd it now its right
[04:25] <RealEyes> hey guys, i just got a 2wire AT&T router and my machine is not reading the ethernet cable. Is there anyway I could fix that?
[04:25] <jimblah> much better than celestia
[04:25] <RealEyes> the ethernet port on my machine is blinking green slowly
[04:25] <jimblah> the addon developers even rip off the motherlode and put there meshes and textures in there stuff
[04:26] <ugarit> how do I reinstall grub after installing windows?
[04:26] <jimblah> I found it looking for a way to build models for compiz 3dcubemodel
[04:27] <predator_x> hi .. im having problem with vlc media player.. audio and video gets stuck while playing
[04:27] <predator_x> i have removed and reinstalled it
[04:27] <predator_x> doesnt work
[04:28] <jimblah> Where would I go to drum up support to clone, find other developers, for a clone for *nix
[04:30] <jimblah> Orbitux
[04:30] <bazhang> jimblah, ##linux perhaps
[04:30] <jimblah> Tux Orbiter
[04:30] <bazhang> jimblah, or #ubuntu-offtopic
[04:31] <jimblah> anyother ideas before I go?
[04:31] <oshirix> hoi
[04:31] <jimblah> or stop mentioning it
[04:32] <bazhang> jimblah, lets discuss in #ubuntu-offtopic please
[04:32] <jimblah> sure
[04:33] <madsailor> jimblah, make a vat of coffee, mix it with a sixpack of redbull lock the door and start reverse-engineering
[04:33] <madsailor> other than that, nope
[04:36] <gunndawg> Could someone tell me why there are 2 options for my windows 7 partition on GRUB? dev/sda1 and dev/sda2 are both windows 7
[04:38] <bazhang> gunndawg, one is the tiny 100mb partition that windows 7 creates
[04:38] <gunndawg> bazhang, thanks.
[04:38] <madsailor> gunndawg, win7 is actually win vista in a new wrapper the first (small) partition is that wrapper, and is where 7 boots from
[04:38] <gunndawg> madsailor but vista shows up also, I have 2 win7 options and a vista loader option
[04:39] <Paddy_NI> gunndawg: yeah that is annoying
[04:39] <Loki^> anyone here knows a good tutorial for (mobility) radeon hd 5xxx series driver installations? xserver isnt starting after driver installation (fglrx) and reboot. it reboots in tty1. i googled myself to death, cant find good tutorials or solutions so far
[04:39] <Paddy_NI> gunndawg: a custom grub.conf is really your only option
[04:39] <kerrick> Loki^, check log files
[04:39] <gunndawg> bazhang, so its not out of the ordinary? its alright ?
[04:39] <mbvpixies78> arrrrrgh is right
[04:39] <Paddy_NI> gunndawg: there is a few GUIs for doing this easily
[04:39] <bazhang> gunndawg, its fine
[04:39] <mbvpixies78> anyone else use KVM switches?
[04:39] <kerrick> Loki^, I don't know which log files those are in particular, but you should figure out which ones are relevant and check them
[04:40] <Paddy_NI> mbvpixies78: No although I would love one lately
[04:40] <Loki^> kerrick hm ok thx
[04:40] <gunndawg> Paddy_NI doing what easily? I wasnt trying to do anything, lol
[04:40] <Paddy_NI> gunndawg: clean up your boot menu>
[04:40] <Paddy_NI> ?
[04:40] <madsailor> yep...the win 7 'vista' only loads with thw win 7 partition, your other vista is standalone.   All win 7 installs have 2 partitions
[04:40] <gunndawg> Paddy_NI ah ok
[04:40] <kerrick> Loki^, also, xorg gives some output when you start it with startx
[04:40] <gunndawg> madsailor, thanks just wanted to make sure everything was set up as it should be
[04:40] <Loki^> kerrick while googleling i found out that alot of people have driver issues, especially with the 5000 series... so i thought there might be some good hints or tutorials out :(
[04:40] <mbvpixies78> Paddy_NI:  be careful--  real pain in the arse.  screen went blank, I rebooted and now it won't boot at all, won't take a boot cd or flash drive
[04:40] <kerrick> Loki^, so you can do startx from a terminal, then switch back to it and see the output
[04:40] <tucemiux> mbvpixies78, i use a KVM switch, why?
[04:40] <gunndawg> if its alright, then I'll just leave it be :)
[04:41] <Paddy_NI> mbvpixies78: O_o
[04:41] <Paddy_NI> mbvpixies78: what the hell did you do?
[04:41] <mbvpixies78> Paddy_NI:  I'm using IOGEAR
[04:41] <Loki^> kerrick ok thank you =)
[04:41] <marcoftheknight> hey anyone running virtual ubuntu on windows
[04:41] <marcoftheknight> >
[04:41] <marcoftheknight> ?
[04:41] <gunndawg> I am pretty stoked that I got a new plymouth theme installed :)
[04:41] <Paddy_NI> mbvpixies78: Let me google that one
[04:41] <mbvpixies78> Paddy_NI:  I called tech support and they're replacing it
[04:41] <kerrick> Loki^, you could try the open source driver, see if that works, and if it does, it may mean a bug in ATI's driver. That might not be helpful though.
[04:41] <Paddy_NI> mbvpixies78: ah faulty gear.. they should be responsible for any damage caused
[04:41] <mbvpixies78> It's Iogear, Miniview 4-port, model KVMP GCS1804.... this may just be a lemon
[04:42] <Paddy_NI> mbvpixies78: is there nothing cheap and cheerful that would do the job for you?
[04:42] <Loki^> kerrick it does, but the friend with the issue wants to play 3d games like warsow, and they dont work, or only work very bad, with the open source driver
[04:42] <mbvpixies78> Paddy_MI:  It's weird...  like the computer goes through an existential crisis, and then a few days later, it starts accepting boot media again
[04:42] <marcoftheknight> lol
[04:43] <Paddy_NI> mbvpixies78: I really dont understand why it would do that
[04:43] <mbvpixies78> Paddy_NI:  cheap KVM means big, big headaches
[04:43] <id10t> I recomend "playonlinux" for noobs who dont know how to use wine but still want to play 3d games<[04:43] <Paddy_NI> gah
[04:43] <kerrick> Loki^, oh ok
[04:43] <gunndawg> I tell ya what. After getting a new plymouth theme installed, and writing a few custom shell scripts to run to help keep this thing updated and cleaned up, I am really enjoying Ubuntu
[04:43] <marcoftheknight> join #ubuntuforums
[04:43] <Paddy_NI> gunndawg: yeah it does rock
[04:43] <mbvpixies78> Paddy_NI:  If you like, once I get the replacement and I see you on, I will let you know if it was a lemon and this is a good model to buy.
[04:44] <Paddy_NI> mbvpixies78: that would be really cool
[04:44] <id10t> hey just wondering does anyone know if smooth fonts is automatically set in ubuntu 10.10?
[04:44] <gunndawg> Paddy_NI I've only got it set up on a 25GB partition but I think I am gonna stretch that and give win7 less room ;)
[04:44] <Paddy_NI> gunndawg: yeah do that
[04:44] <Paddy_NI> :)
[04:44] <mbvpixies78> Paddy_NI:  It really ought to be for the price, and it's really sleek.  You just push the button to switch computers (no having to use keyboard shortcuts)
[04:45] <Magicblaze007> I just installed my first ubuntu machine. I get a "$" prompt from bash. Anyone can tell me a place to set a nicer bash prompt?
[04:45] <barack_osama> sudo su
[04:45] <gunndawg> Paddy_NI can I modify the partions here in ubuntu to give this partion more space or do I need to do that from win7?
[04:45] <barack_osama> and you will get #
[04:45] <barack_osama> :)
[04:45] <Paddy_NI> gunndawg: live cd would be best
[04:46] <gunndawg> Paddy_NI alright, I'll try, heh
[04:47] <marikaw> i tried to install ubuntu on my netbook to dual boot, but now it isn't working and i'd either like to uninstall ubuntu or figure out why i couldn't boot into ubuntu
[04:49] <freeksh0w86> what's the wubi command for making a /home partition of a good size on the NTFS drive? (no i can't install Ubuntu the normal way, it would mess up my Windows install)
[04:50] <bazhang> freeksh0w86, to resize it you mean?
[04:50] <feyd> if I'm using mplayer and mpd for music and video, is there any reason to keep gstreamer installed?
[04:51] <Magicblaze007> what is the correct way to install ipython on a ubuntu machine?
[04:52] <Magicblaze007> is there a room for ubuntu newbies?
[04:52] <tucemiux> Magicblaze007, there is no such thing as "correct" way, you can use apt-get, software center or synaptic
[04:52] <bazhang> Magicblaze007, this is it
[04:53] <czardoz> Magicblaze007, compile using ./confugure
[04:53] <czardoz> and then "make"
[04:53] <marcoftheknight> hey wath up
[04:53] <Magicblaze007> czardoz: won't that break the system after a point? make install?
[04:53] <czardoz> no
[04:53] <Magicblaze007> I think I'll go with apt-get
[04:54] <bazhang> czardoz, there is zero reason to compile
[04:54] <Magicblaze007> how do I find out what version will be installed when I say "sudo apt-get install ipython"?
[04:55] <bazhang> Magicblaze007, better to not break package management; apt-cache search package usually turns up what you need
[04:55] <czardoz> bazhang, there is no reason not to either
[04:55] <czardoz> :)
[04:55] <bazhang> czardoz, its a very last resort. not something to recommend out of the gate, particularly to a newcomer
[04:55] <czardoz> i see what you mean
[04:55] <jukas> how to configure my hdmi audio driver?
[04:55] <jukas> i can make it work
[04:55] <jukas> i have an gt36m nvidia
[04:55] <Magicblaze007> bazhang: it doesn't tell me what version it will install
[04:55] <marcoftheknight> i broke my virtual box cant share windows hardrive with virtual ubuntu
[04:56] <Magicblaze007> just a description
[04:56] <marcoftheknight> darnt it
[04:56] <bazhang> Magicblaze007, let me check
[04:56] <czardoz> Magicblaze007, just use "sudo apt-get install ipython"
[04:56] <gpc> czardoz: apt-cache show package will give you more detailed info
[04:56] <gpc> err Magicblaze007 ^^
[04:56] <marcoftheknight> hdmi audio driver
[04:56] <jukas> yes
[04:56] <Flannel> Magicblaze007: apt-cache policy [package], then look at the "candidate" line
[04:56] <jukas> do you know something?
[04:56] <bazhang> Magicblaze007, /msg ubottu info ipython
[04:57] <jukas> i i cant make it work
[04:57] <marcoftheknight> have you download the correct driver for ubuntu, they have excellent support for nvidia
[04:57] <santhosh> im running a ubuntu command line version, i installed the lamp package can any one tell me how to start apache server in it or to check if its already riunnning
[04:57] <Magicblaze007> What's wrong --> $ history --> -sh: history: not found
[04:57] <santhosh> im running a ubuntu command line version, i installed the lamp package can any one tell me how to start apache server in it or to check if its already riunnning
[04:57] <bazhang> jukas, keep it on one line please, its very hard to follow otherwise
[04:57] <czardoz> sudo /etc/init.d/httpd start
[04:57] <jukas> ok sorry
[04:57] <czardoz> @santhosh
[04:58] <santhosh> ok
[04:58] <Magicblaze007> Flannel: Thanks. That worked
[04:58] <bucky> santhosh, ps aux |grep apache
[04:58] <santhosh> czardoz: is there a comand where i can check if its already rinning
[04:58] <czardoz> if you have nmap, just check if port 80 is open
[04:59] <jukas> i ve downloaded the driver from additional drivers on ubuntu
[04:59] <psycho_oreos> lsof -i| grep httpd
[04:59] <dnivra> hello. I am trying to share files using samba. I shared a folder named 'cv', located in my home folder with permissions 644. I share it(Right click -> Sharing options) but when I try to access it using 'smb://localhost' and logging in using an account 'guest123', i am unable to mount the share. 'guest123' is an account in my computer and i added it to smbusers using 'sudo smbpasswd -a guest123'.
[04:59] <santhosh> ok the scenario is the server is a cloud server running on rackespace, i tunneled into it and installed the lamp. Now no dns is configured for the server. But when i point the ip in browser, even apache test page is not loading. wat could be the problem
[05:00] <santhosh> do i have to do any things specific, any configs before i can point the thing in my browser
[05:00] <assid> heya
[05:00] <marcoftheknight> ok well I have Ati and I had the ccc catalyst control center I assume nvidia has same type of control center doesnt it where you can change your settings chech for some type of nvidia control center that you can download pleases someone intervene if im wrong
[05:00] <assid> does ubuntu have issues reading windows' dynamic disks ?
[05:00] <santhosh> ok the scenario is the server is a cloud server running on rackespace, i tunneled into it and installed the lamp. Now no dns is configured for the server. But when i point the ip in browser, even apache test page is not loading. wat could be the problem
[05:01] <bazhang> santhosh, patience dont repeat so quickly please
[05:01] <feyd> if I'm using mplayer and mpd for music and video, is there any reason to keep gstreamer installed? Maybe for pulse/alsa?
[05:01] <santhosh> bazhang: sorry
[05:01] <santhosh> im in kind of an urgent situatuion here
[05:01] <jukas> yes come with nvidia settings... but i cant  configure the audio driver from tere
[05:02] <sacarlson> feyd: is there any reason to remove it?  are you running out of disk space on you 1 tera byte hard drive?
[05:02] <marcoftheknight> jukas try this you can get it by running "nvidia-settings" at the cmd prompt
[05:03] <santhosh> czardoz: sudo /etc/init.d/httpd start - command not found
[05:03] <magicblaze007> is there no history command on ubuntu?
[05:03] <bucky> santhosh, dpkg -i apache2   is it installed
[05:03] <marcoftheknight> PRESS UP FOR HISTORY COMMAND
[05:03] <marcoftheknight> arrow up
[05:03] <santhosh> bucky: yes it is
[05:04] <rww> santhosh: it's apache2, not httpd.
[05:04] <magicblaze007> marcoftheknight: I'm sshing to my box, and up doesnt work
[05:04] <assid> err anyone kniow if ubuntu can read dynamic disks (windows) correctly?
[05:04] <assid> the live cd isnt able to read those drives
[05:04] <santhosh> what does dpkg do?
[05:04] <santhosh> deploy pakcage?
[05:04] <magicblaze007> how do i get history in ubuntu?
[05:04] <czardoz> install packages on the system
[05:05] <jukas> have no audio table to configure
[05:05] <marcoftheknight> fine
[05:05] <scbunn> magicblaze007: what shell are you running and is history configured?
[05:05] <magicblaze007> scbunn: i guess not
[05:05] <magicblaze007> no idea what the default shell is
[05:05] <magicblaze007> how do i find out?
[05:05] <assid> anyone>?
[05:05] <magicblaze007> scbunn: i'm using sh
[05:05] <scbunn> magicblaze007: you could echo $SHELL but it will most likely lie.. try typing bash and see if you get the same prompt
[05:05] <magicblaze007> bash makes the history work actually
[05:05] <magicblaze007> sh , history doesnt work
[05:06] <scbunn> magicblaze007: haven't used bourne (sh) under linux in a long time, but default on solaris is no history
[05:06] <magicblaze007> scbunn: how do i change my shell from default sh to bash?
[05:06] <scbunn> magicblaze007: as root change your shell usermod -s /bin/bash <username>
[05:06] <marcoftheknight> oh the whole history lol
[05:06] <judgepg> what is that, a raid configuration?
[05:06] <czardoz> magicblaze007, edit /etc/passwd file
[05:06] <czardoz> to change default shell
[05:07] <scbunn> czardoz: stop recommending people do stupid sh*t
[05:07] <bucky> santhosh, do you have an apache2-mpm-prefork or other mpm installed also?
[05:07] <santhosh> yippee apache now works thanks guys
[05:07] <magicblaze007> says i'm not in sudoers file... :( how do i put myself there?
[05:07] <santhosh> bucky: its running now
[05:07] <judgepg> scbunn: What's wrong with czardoz's suggestion?
[05:07] <czardoz> scbunn, is not someone i want toargue with
[05:08] <santhosh> ok im a complete noob so sorry for all these question, if i wanna perform common admin tasks on apache where am i supposed to look for the config files
[05:08] <scbunn> judgepg: they guy doesn't know how to work history. You can send him off to vi and have in arse up passwd so nobody can login, or your can use usermod with no change of failure
[05:08] <santhosh> say .htaccess and all that
[05:09] <judgepg> scbunn: Got it.  Means to the same end
[05:09] <dnivra> i have a user guest123. i would like another person to view shared files by logging in as guest123. how can I do that? I have shared files(right click -> sharing options) and can login as owner of the files but not as 'guest123'.
[05:09] <bucky> santhosh, the apache website has the best docs
[05:09] <santhosh> bucky: ok ill take a peekabo
[05:10] <Loki^1> i aborted a file transfer (i copied a file from harddisk to harddisk), but the gui of the filetransfer wont disappear and theres still the file transfer icon in the notification bar between the sound indicator. anyone knows how to get rid of that? what to close in task manager?
[05:11] <sam-_-> Loki^1: try xkill. then click on the filetransfer
[05:11] <magicblaze007> anyone uses python type shell for replacing bash here by any chance?
[05:11] <santhosh> how do i install phpmyadmin
[05:11] <santhosh> thro command line
[05:11] <marcoftheknight> lol
[05:11] <Loki^1> sam-_- thanks it worked
[05:11] <Jimtrim> Hi. Any tips for getting Ubuntu to dual-boot with windows smoothly?
[05:11] <santhosh> How do i install phpmyadmin thro command line
[05:12] <marcoftheknight> VM
[05:12] <marcoftheknight> virtual machine
[05:12] <gpc> santhosh: apt-get install phpmyadmin
[05:12] <marcoftheknight> the best
[05:12] <sam-_-> !dualboot | Jimtrim
[05:12] <marcoftheknight> virtual machine is much better
[05:12] <bazhang> marcoftheknight, please dont use the enter key every two words
[05:12] <magicblaze007> how do i list installed packages?
[05:13] <gpc> !clone > magicblaze007
[05:13] <Jimtrim> ubottu: bah. this is why I dont use Ubuntu... have to raed to much, just to install it
[05:13] <EnigmaticCoder> magicblaze007: dpkg --get-selections > InstalledSoftware
[05:13] <judgepg> Jimtrim: That's why we have Windows :)
[05:14] <Jimtrim> but, still.... I like the terminal =P
[05:14] <judgepg> Jimtrim: use the powershell
[05:14] <Assid> can you use the dvd amd64 for raid installations?
[05:14] <magicblaze007> so there is no python 2.7 to install for ubuntu as a package?
yes sir
[05:15] <magicblaze007> I was trying ;  apt-cache search python | grep 7
[05:15] <judgepg> magicblaze007: Pretty sure python gets installed with Ubuntu
[05:15] <Assid> paq7512: i didnt see it anywhere along the installation process to allow it
[05:15] <magicblaze007> judgepg: I need 2.7 instead of the 2.6.5  that comes with it
[05:16] <judgepg> magicblaze007: My bad.
[05:16] <dnivra> magicblaze007: i think python2.7 is not there by default in maverick. it is only being included in natty.
 do you want to do software or do you have hardware raid?
[05:16] <Assid> paq7512: software
[05:16] <gpc> magicblaze007: apt-get install python2.7
[05:16] <dannys> hello testing does this work?
[05:16] <Assid> paq7512: i want these mechanical drives to go quicker :D
[05:17] <gpc> magicblaze007: apt-cache search python  (should show you the package)
[05:17] <magicblaze007> gpc: Unable to locate package python2.7 ?
[05:17] <santhosh> i installed phpmyadmin but its not working if i given ip/phpmyadmin
[05:17] <gpc> magicblaze007: what version of Ubuntu?
[05:17] <dnivra> magicblaze007: which version of ubuntu are you running?
 are you using the alternate installer?
[05:17] <magicblaze007> dnivra: how do i find out?
[05:17] <magicblaze007> Server, LTS
[05:17] <judgepg> magicblaze007: Why not just compile it from source?  Grab it from python.org
[05:17] <Assid> paq7512: i have the live amd64 disk
[05:17] <Assid> dvd
[05:17] <santhosh> i installed phpmyadmin but its not working if i give ip/phpmyadmin
[05:18] <dnivra> magicblaze007: lsb_release -a.
[05:18] <magicblaze007> judgepg: i could. and place it in /opt -- last resort
[05:18] <LostPenguin> is there any way to set the kernel version priorities so that if you have multiple versions it can try a specific one before it tries the newest?
[05:18] <paq7512> Assid: check out the alternate cd x64
[05:18] <santhosh> i installed phpmyadmin but its not working if i give myipaddress/phpmyadmin. shud i do any configuration changes before i can see it in the browser.
[05:18] <magicblaze007> Description:    Ubuntu 10.04.1 LTS lucid
[05:18] <judgepg> magicblaze007: Yeah, I don't think it's in the repo's yet
[05:18] <Assid> paq7512: yeah am getting that
[05:19] <dnivra> magicblaze007: i'm guessing it isn't there in 10.04. compile from source would be best.
[05:19] <Assid> paq7512: any idea if ubuntu in general is capable of reading windows dyanmic disks ?
[05:19] <magicblaze007> what shell do u guys use? i'm thinking of getting used to a shell that understands python...
[05:19] <madsailor> santosh, check https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ApacheMySQLPHP...it goes throgh a lamp install including myphp
[05:19] <judgepg> bash is fine
[05:19] <tiyowan> magicblaze007: bash
[05:20] <magicblaze007> thanks
[05:20] <gunndawg> bah, I cant figure out how to give this partition more space, it wont let me move/resize it, so I shrank my win7 partition and now I have an extra drive showing up in My Computer and still cant add the extra space to ubuntu :(
[05:20] <madsailor> *phpmyadmin, sorry
[05:20] <dnivra> i'm trying to share files with another person. i want people to login using an account 'guest123' that exists in my computer and only be able to read the files. is it possible in some way?
[05:20] <magicblaze007> does history persists over later logins?
[05:20] <paq7512> assid: should be fine
[05:20] <judgepg> gunndawg: try using gparted
[05:20] <dnivra> magicblaze007: in bash yes. ~/.bash_history
[05:21] <gunndawg> judgepg I did, it wont let me do anything to this partition, wont let me move/resize it
[05:21] <magicblaze007> dnivra: thanks. how long is the history and where can i set it?
[05:21] <magicblaze007> dnivra: got it, thanks
[05:21] <judgepg> gunndawg: Delete it, and then resize another partition with the unallocated space
[05:21] <bucky> magicblaze007, history -c  will clear it
[05:21] <judgepg> gunndawg: Or sorry, I misunderstood - do you need to remove it, or resize it?
[05:21] <gunndawg> judgepg wont that delete ubuntu ?
[05:21] <Assid> paq7512: can i pm you?
[05:22] <paq7512> sure
[05:22] <LostPenguin> or does anyone know a way to install drivers in linux that were compiled in the wrong place?
[05:22] <gunndawg> judgepg resize it, I wanna take space from my win7 partition and move it to this ubuntu partition to give linux more space
[05:22] <judgepg> gunndawg: Disregard what I said.  Ok, run your scenario by me again.
[05:22] <LostPenguin> or a way to add device IDs to the kernel?
[05:23] <judgepg> gunndawg: Did yu resize your Win7 partition to give free space?
[05:23] <gunndawg> judgepg yes
[05:23] <scbunn> magicblaze007: Setting HISTFILESIZE in your profile will determine the size. I don't know what the default is.
[05:24] <LostPenguin> or does anyone know how to fix a fail ass chinese makefile script?
[05:24] <gunndawg> judgepg I have some unallocated space
[05:24] <judgepg> gunndawg: And now if you select the linux partition, you should be able to expand the size using the slider.  No?
[05:24] <xerophyte> anyone help me with mercurial question : in the .hgignore i put public_html/foo/var/* .. but it also ignore the foo too .. how can i avoid that
[05:24] <gunndawg> judgepg, no wont let me
[05:24] <sam-_-> !language | LostPenguin
[05:24] <shentino> is the partition mounted?
[05:24] <gunndawg> shentino, might be
[05:25] <judgepg> gunndawg: Oh wait a sec.  Windows is NTFS
[05:25] <LostPenguin> well, at least I know you can see what I type...
[05:25] <sam-_-> LostPenguin: what are you trying to do?
[05:25] <LostPenguin> connect a USB DVB device
[05:25] <mikeplus64> FloodBot2: This time, it's personal.
[05:26] <santhosh> i installed phpmyadmin but its not working if i give myipaddress/phpmyadmin. shud i do any configuration changes before i can see it in the browser.
[05:26] <LostPenguin> manufactuer's driver compiled to the wrong place
[05:26] <judgepg> gunndawg: hrm... I'm honestly not sure what to do.  Sorry about that
[05:26] <sam-_-> LostPenguin: what do you mean wrong place?
[05:26] <Blue1> why would you need propriety software for a dvd ?
[05:26] <gunndawg> judgepg ugh now my partitions are all screwed up and all over the place, unallocated space, blank/empty partitions, :(
[05:26] <gunndawg> judgepg, what a mess :(
[05:26] <santhosh> any one knows how to sort this tuff out, help me out here guys
[05:26] <judgepg> gunndawg: just exit out of gparted
[05:26] <LostPenguin> kernel version 2.6.28-11 instead of current version
[05:26] <judgepg> gunndawg: Don't apply any changes
[05:27] <gunndawg> judgepg, I didnt apply any changes, the changes I made were in partition magic on win7
[05:27] <noisewaterphd> santhosh: you are going to need to be more specific about the problem. WHat do you mean by it doesn't work
[05:27] <Blue1> LostPenguin: what version of ubuntu ru running?
[05:27] <LostPenguin> 10.4
[05:27] <santhosh> noisewaterphd:  im getting a 404
[05:27] <techitch> hey guys, i'm having this problem - i mount a windows share using cifs and fstab..this works fine..i'm mounting the shares to /mnt - i need to get access to these folders from another application running within a chroot so im trying to mount /mnt using bind to another folder inside a chroot however when i mount it i cannot see the contents of the windows shares...
[05:27] <sam-_-> LostPenguin: did it use the correct kernel headers when compiling?
[05:27] <judgepg> gunndawg: my suggestion is to somehow create new unallocated space, and form there expand the linux partition
[05:28] <noisewaterphd> are you typing /phpmyadmin or /phpMyAdmin
[05:28] <darkwurm> santhosh: The documentation regarding install of phpmyadmin is quite strait forward.
[05:28] <gunndawg> judgepg, I already have unallocated space
[05:28] <Assid> anyone know if ubuntu can read windows dynamic disks w/ guid?
[05:28] <Blue1> LostPenguin: I have never ever seen linux require proprietary software for accessing a cdrom/dvd drive.  nor have I seen it in windows starting with win 98.   is the drive particularly old?
[05:28] <LostPenguin> sam-_- I don't know what any of that means, they told me "sudo make install" was all I need to type
[05:28] <santhosh> sorry guys yep it is i just found that out
[05:28] <santhosh> i sorted it thatnks
[05:28] <gunndawg> judgepg, I might just format the entire drive and just install ubuntu and start all over
[05:28] <noisewaterphd> santhosh: 404 means it's not there, so you are either misspelling it, or you have your apache config messed up
[05:28] <shentino> what's going on with the floodbots?
[05:29] <judgepg> gunndawg: before you go that route, maybe try to work this through
[05:29] <sam-_-> LostPenguin: can you give me a link to the package?
[05:29] <santhosh> noisewaterphd: actually its more like i havent configured at all i did that now
[05:29] <gunndawg> judgepg my partition table has so much stuff on it that its confusing me
[05:29] <rww> shentino: connection issues with one of them. nothing interesting or unusual, really.
[05:29] <LostPenguin> http://www.mygica.com/down-eng/linuxforsatboxmini.zip
[05:29] <judgepg> gunndawg: just make sure you have a good backup.  Easy to format - easier to regret
[05:29] <gops> hello world
[05:30] <andrew__>  Drew-ooc
[05:30] <gops> anyone know conky scripting
[05:30] <judgepg> gunndawg: if you're going to run a dual boot win7/Ubuntu, make sure you install Windows first
[05:30] <lwizardl> hey
[05:30] <gunndawg> judgepg I had windows7 first
[05:30] <lwizardl> is there a way to use windows scr screensavers in Linux ?
[05:30] <Assid> judgepg: does linux support dyanmic disks ?
[05:31] <gunndawg> judgepg I dont even know if i want windows on this laptop though, thats why I think I might just format
[05:31] <gunndawg> judgepg is there a way for me to get rid of win7 without losing ubuntu ?
[05:31] <judgepg> gunndawg: get rid of Windows :)
[05:31] <judgepg> Assid: sorry, I don't know.
[05:31] <bucky> Assid, what is a dynamic disk?
[05:31] <robgraves> reformat the windows partition
[05:31] <mikeplus64> lwizardl: no
[05:32] <Assid> bucky: some thing of  windows which is required if youwanna make a sofrtware raid
[05:32] <gunndawg> judgepg if I could just get rid of win7 and its partition without losing my ubuntu install I'd go for that, assuming all that extra space moves over here to ubuntu
[05:32] <mikeplus64> lwizardl: you can run them with wine though.
[05:32] <mikeplus64> ( wine blah.scr /s )
[05:33] <judgepg> Assid: see if mdam is what you're looking for
[05:34] <judgepg> gunndawg: Before you do this, Google how to use gparted to resize a partition from available space
[05:34] <Assid> judgepg: im moving from windows to linux.. and my data is on another derive which has been set as a microsoft dynamic drive
[05:34] <gunndawg> judgepg why if I wanna get rid of windows?
[05:34] <bucky> Assid i think you have to set up the windows raid in the raid bios and it forces you to use fake raid in linux
[05:34] <judgepg> gunndawg: Because I'm guessing you'll want to re-allocate that space again to the linux partition, no?
[05:35] <madsailor> gunndawg, the sound of removing windows is music to my ears.  I am running dual.  you should be able to re-partition your drive and re-allocate the space directly without losing linux....just be sure you know what you are re-partitioning
[05:35] <gunndawg> judgepg, ah yes
[05:35] <Assid> bucky:  no no.. my problem is the drives not being recognised
[05:35] <gunndawg> I have gparted open
[05:35] <bucky> Assid, in the installer?
[05:36] <gunndawg> should I change the win7/ntfs partition to ext3?
[05:36] <gunndawg> or is that a step in the wrong direction
[05:36] <mikeplus64> If you want Windows 7 to work then you don't want it to be on ext3.
[05:36] <gunndawg> I dont want windows 7 to work
[05:36] <gunndawg> I want to get rid of windows y
[05:36] <gunndawg> windows7
[05:36] <judgepg> think you chimmed in there a little late, lol
[05:36] <gunndawg> and use all the space on ubuntu
[05:37] <mikeplus64> Then just install ubuntu over it.
[05:37] <judgepg> lol
[05:37] <gunndawg> but I want to keep my existing ubuntu install!
[05:37] <Assid> bucky: live cd doesnt recognise it
[05:37] <mikeplus64> lol
[05:37] <Assid> bucky: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1364293
[05:37] <bucky> ic
[05:38] <gunndawg> judgepg I have a feeling im gonna have to just format the entire hard drive
[05:38] <judgepg> gunndawg: look at this: http://gparted.sourceforge.net/larry/resize/resizing.htm
[05:38] <gunndawg> ok
[05:38] <Assid> bucky:  thats not me btw.. im facing the same issue
[05:38] <judgepg> gunndawg: Or this:
[05:38] <judgepg> http://www.howtogeek.com/howto/windows-vista/using-gparted-to-resize-your-windows-vista-partition/
[05:38] <rr73> where do i find the setting for visual system bell?
[05:39] <bucky> Assid, i haven't run into that so.. sorry i can't help. maybe someone else can help you
[05:39] <madsailor> gunndawg, I'm guessing you have 2 ntfs partitions and an extended partition that holds your linux swap and ubuntu base?
[05:39] <sam-_-> LostPenguin: ugh. what is this. seems like some precompiled stuff with linux-headers included. i don't know what to do with this. can you give me the name of the hardware you are trying to install?
[05:39] <gunndawg> madsailor, yes
[05:40] <judgepg> madsailor: Aren't you allowed to have 4 primary, and the rest logical?
[05:40] <sam-_-> judgepg: no.
[05:40] <LostPenguin> satbox mini 1f4d:2000
[05:40] <sam-_-> judgepg: 3 prim. rest logical
[05:40] <madsailor> judge, yes
[05:41] <madsailor> gunndawg, you have gparted open?
[05:41] <gunndawg> judgepg looks like the best way is to use the GParted live cd, delete the NTFS partitions and resize my ext3 partition
[05:41] <gunndawg> actually its ext4
[05:41] <gunndawg> madsailor, yes its open
[05:41] <sam-_-> LostPenguin: http://www.mygica.com/pa/satboxmini.asp
[05:41] <judgepg> gunndawg: I think that makes sense.  Just be mindful of GRUB which still sees your windows.
[05:41] <rr73> is visual system beep still enabled in 10.10?
[05:41] <sam-_-> LostPenguin: this one?
[05:42] <gunndawg> judgepg looks like the best way is to use the GParted live cd, delete the NTFS partitions and resize my ext3 partitionj
[05:42] <rr73> well the feature
[05:42] <gunndawg> oops didnt mean to do that
[05:42] <madsailor> gunndawg,  actually, you just took my advice before I gave it
[05:42] <LostPenguin> sam-_- that's the one
[05:42] <gunndawg> if
[05:42] <judgepg> madsailor: nice
[05:42] <SJr> I copied a profile / home directory from a 9.10 box, to a 10.10 box, and now it seems that the system tray icons like volume don't appear
[05:42] <gunndawg> judgepg, madsailor, if GRUB still sees windows after I remove the NTFS partitions cant I just edit grub to not show them ?
[05:43] <RealEyes> man, this ethernet thing is giving me trouble Dx
[05:43] <judgepg> gunndawg: you can
[05:43] <napster> !plymouth
[05:43] <KM0201> gunndawg: depending on the size of the partitions, resizing would take forever.. i'd just delete the NTFS, and make it a separat partition.
[05:44] <KM0201> unless you need more space
[05:44] <gunndawg> judgepg alright, does ubuntu have a cd burning software so I can burn the GParted live cd ?
[05:44] <madsailor> gunndawg,  gparted, delete ntfs partitions, expand ext3 partition, expand filesystem and voila and yes you can edit grub     sudo update-grub
[05:44] <gunndawg> so many people with so many different ideas, ugh :(
[05:44] <judgepg> gunndawg: gnomebaker
[05:44] <judgepg> gunndawg: in the repo's
[05:44] <bethdo97> after installing ver 10.10 on a brand new hard drive with no OS and rebooting system, I can't get bast thhe tty prompt.  It won't boot to thhe desktop
[05:44] <Assid> brb
[05:44] <KM0201> gunndawg: expanding it will work as well... it's just gonna take forever
[05:44] <gunndawg> KM0201 defind forever, lol
[05:45] <KM0201> how much space are we talking
[05:45] <gunndawg> 250gb hdd
[05:45] <KM0201> how big is the windows partition you're deleting?
[05:45] <judgepg> forever^2
[05:45] <madsailor> <--is going to be quiet now that gunndawg is suitably overwhelmed by the outpouring of support
[05:45] <gunndawg> bah
[05:45] <judgepg> <-- will take a seat as well
[05:45] <KM0201> madsailor: your way will wrk fine.. don't want to steal your thunder...
[05:45] <gunndawg> KM0201 the NTFS partition is like 200gb
[05:46] <Rapsodius> Hi! I want to mount my pendrive but I get "mount: special device /dev/sda does not exist", help me the pendrive is correctly working on windows
[05:46] <KM0201> gunndawg: you're gonna resize a partition, "out" 200gigs.. i would expect that to take a fair amount of time.
[05:46] <gunndawg> KM0201 what is fair amount of time to you? 1 hour? 1 day? 1 week ?
[05:46] <gunndawg> fair amount is a relitive term
[05:47] <judgepg> gunndawg: KM2021 is right actually.  Could take many hours
[05:47] <KM0201> gunndawg: i would expect, at least, 3-4hrs... probably longer
[05:47] <madsailor> KM0201, np.  Just have only done it one way, doesn't mean it's the best way
[05:47] <gunndawg> so is it best to just format the entire drive and start all over and just reinstall ubuntu ?
[05:47] <KM0201> gunndawg: if you don't have a lot invested in Ubuntu.. thats what I would do...(and have done)
[05:48] <aflianelk> テクチカ ヒイストニラミ チモ ニ ミラテ・
[05:48] <judgepg> install archlinux :)
[05:48] <gunndawg> KM0201 not too much time, mostly just setting things up
[05:48] <KM0201> gunndawg: cuz you'll be done installing updating, etc.. before the previous way would even be done partitioning
[05:48] <KM0201> gunndawg: well do you have good notes on how you done things?
[05:48] <gunndawg> KM0201 eh kinda, this has all been a learning experience
[05:48] <gunndawg> KM0201 so we'll see

[05:50] <gunndawg> well...here goes nothing!
[05:50] <bethdo97> I what does this mean, how do I fix the problem and does this mean I messed up something during the install?
[05:50] <gunndawg> talk to you guys soon, I hope
[05:51] <judgepg> gunndawg: good luck
[05:51] <gunndawg> judgepg you gonna be on a while ?
[05:51] <judgepg> gunndawg: nope, but if you're starting fresh, then you'll have all the space allocated to the linux partition table
[05:51] <judgepg> gunndawg: what you're hoping to accomplish
[05:51] <madsailor> gunndawg, I second (or third) the good luck
[05:51] <sabinista> hi
[05:52] <sabinista> hi
[05:52] <intok> Whats the best way to rip an uncompressed .iso of a dvd, I don't want to transcode to another format, just back it up.
[05:52] <gunndawg> judgepg, madsailor, lol ok talk to you guys soon!

[05:53] <sabinista> hi judgepg
[05:53] <judgepg> sabinista: hi
[05:54] <bethdo97> is there somewhere I can go where someone might help walk me thru trying to get this up and running ?
[05:54] <sabinista> do u use ffmpeg??
[05:54] <Rapsodius> shameless bump
[05:54] <judgepg> sabinista: I don't know if there's a 3gp plugin for ffmpeg
[05:54] <madsailor> judgepg, I'm dual booting and leary of it myself....started running ubuntu in prep for the BSOD...and when that day comes I'll be following in the same re-partitioning footsteps
[05:54] <bethdo97> My son wants this on his laptop instead of Windows and I can't get it to work like the documentation sshows it should
[05:55] <sabinista> judgepg: really?? :(
[05:55] <sabinista> ok
[05:55] <judgepg> madsailor: lol.  The best way to really appreciate the value of ubuntu is to use it as the primary OS
[05:56] <madsailor> judgepg, just waiting for the chance...as a **thank* you to MS
[05:56] <judgepg> madsailor: If you're a gamer, or photoshop enthusiast, sure use windows
[05:56] <madsailor> judgepg, that's exactly why it's still around
[05:56] <judgepg> madsailor: lol.  I guess you don't have Vista installed
[05:56] <jahc> I've got a general linux question. I want to install ubuntu onto an old pentium4 2.4ghz with 1gb ram.. I want this box to be a gateway for my router, so that I can give everyone on my LAN traffic quotas...
[05:56] <mbvpixies78> How can I troubleshoot Ubuntu bootup problems?  Is there a "repair" disk?
[05:57] <jahc> the only problem is, the adsl router/modem connects by ethernet.. and the rest of the network connects by ethernet..
[05:57] <jahc> the computer has one ethernet port
[05:57] <jahc> how can all traffic go through this PC?
[05:57] <noonian> mbvpixies78, you can use an ubuntu install live cd as a repair disc
[05:57] <mbvpixies78> jahc:  no switch or router?
[05:57] <jahc> ahhh I do have a switch..
[05:57] <jahc> and a router that can be used as a switch..
[05:58] <madsailor> judgepg, win7..it runs what it has to when it has to, but it's no Ubuntu
[05:58] <mbvpixies78> noonian:  it won't boot from the disc
[05:58] <jahc> I dont have a clear idea in my head of how to do this..
[05:58] <mbvpixies78> noonian:  any idea why (BIOS boots first from flash, then cd then hdd)
[05:58] <jahc> but if everythings on the router.. wont people just access the adsl modem by its ip address?
[05:58] <noonian> mbvpixies78, and it wont boot from a cd disc?
[05:58] <bethdo97> mbvpixies78 sure wish there was; What problem are you having
[05:58] <judgepg> madsailor: You know what, I have some respect for Win7 - it's a pretty good OS
[05:58] <jahc> I want all traffic to go through this machine.
[05:59] <mbvpixies78> jahc:  then connect modem to machine, share internet connection, get a NIC for a second rj-45 port and connect that to a router/switch
[05:59] <sam-_-> LostPenguin: any chance you want to upgrade to maverick?
[05:59] <judgepg> jahc: as mbvpixies78 mentioned, you'll want at least 2 nic's
[05:59] <mbvpixies78> I got perfectly fine working new NICs on ebay for $5
[06:00] <jahc> ok..
[06:00] <jahc> that sounds good.

[06:00] <LostPenguin> sam-_- what will that do for me?
[06:00] <mbvpixies78> jahc:  they come from Taiwan, so you have to wait a bit, but it's cheap
[06:00] <jahc> I cant afford to wait, I'll grab one locally for 3x the price. :)
[06:00] <saeses> sabinista: hello
[06:00] <sam-_-> LostPenguin: you wouldn't need to compile it yourself then.
[06:01] <sam-_-> LostPenguin: the module is called ds3000.ko
[06:01] <jahc> will Ubuntu do the trick? I got an old 10.10 iso here..
[06:01] <sabinista> hi saeses
[06:01] <sam-_-> LostPenguin: it's not in lucid but in maverick it's already inclued
[06:01] <madsailor> judgepg, it does it's thing great, no question, but ubuntu is yoga master while win (insert version here) has rigormortis
[06:01] <mbvpixies78> noonian:  no...  never gets to the "boot from cd" part...  just DMI update... and "GRUB" and nothing
[06:01] <LostPenguin> modules are there, but the link to the device ID is not
[06:01] <LostPenguin> may or may not be same driver too
[06:01] <saeses> what is 3gp?? sabinista
[06:01] <sabinista> lol
[06:02] <LostPenguin> and drivers are in kernel not ubuntu
[06:02] <sabinista> mobile video format
[06:02] <sam-_-> LostPenguin: if you just did a make install it will not do what you want bc. the modules are for 2.6.28
[06:02] <mbvpixies78> noonian:  weird part, this has happened on three separate computers, from different hardware
[06:02] <judgepg> madsailor: have you tried arch or gentoo by chance?
[06:02] <noonian> that is strange, and sounds like something is setup in the bios to not boot from external media
[06:02] <saeses> sabinista: oohh
[06:02] <mbvpixies78> noonian:  I don't see how a kvm switch could muck up an mbr AND cause it to not boot from cd or flash...???
[06:02] <noonian> mbvpixies78, i would press f2 f11 f8 and f5 during boot to get to the bios menu and try to find something
[06:02] <intok> Whats the best way to rip an uncompressed .iso of a dvd, I don't want to transcode to another format, just back it up.
[06:03] <LostPenguin> sam-_- I know the script is broken, I have no idea how to fix it and tech support isn't helping either
[06:03] <noonian> mbvpixies78, if it is getting to grub then the bios has already booted from the hard disk so you know your boot order is messed up somehow
[06:03] <judgepg> sabinista: You keep asking the same question to everyone.  Take a look at this article: ffmpeg -i inputfile.mpg -s qcif -vcodec h263 -acodec aac -ac 1 -ar 8000 -r 25 -ab 32 -y outputfile.3gp
[06:03] <mbvpixies78> noonian:  yeah, I suppose it's worth a shot, as I said before, it's like the computers go through an existential crisis for a few days, cause eventually, they will boot from cd or flash
[06:03] <judgepg> http://goinggnu.wordpress.com/2007/02/13/convert-avi-to-3gp-using-ffmpeg/
[06:03] <sam-_-> LostPenguin:y. it looks rly. bad. it would be some work to fix it.
[06:03] <madsailor> judgepg, nope...backtrc\ack in a vm for some fun pentesting, but I do have a free partition available...what's the advantage (and we should take this to ubuntu-offtopic if we continue this convo)
[06:03] <trans> hello everyone
[06:04] <sam-_-> LostPenguin: i think it's quite outdated since it's now mainline
[06:04] <trans> plz help, no sound out of headphones but speakers work fine
[06:04] <bethdo97> what could be wrong when I try to get updates and it keeps telling me no address associated with host?
[06:04] <mbvpixies78> noonian:  right now it's like hot potato...  some will work others won't...  wonder if maybe my meager apartment isn't supplying adequate power?
[06:04] <knowx> could anyone tell me how to compile gtk files?
[06:04] <LostPenguin> sam-_- the driver is mainline, but the kernel is not familiar with the device ID so it does not apply it
[06:05] <sam-_-> LostPenguin: it wasn't mainline for the lucid kernel
[06:05] <judgepg> madsailor: different distro.  Has it's merits.  I think you'd come to understand the underlying system a lot more with one of those two distros
[06:05] <mbvpixies78> mainline-- quintessential addict terminology
[06:05] <LostPenguin> sam-_- the kernel is linux NOT ubuntu
[06:05] <noonian> mbvpixies78, i dont know. i really dont know anything about hardware. and my knowledge of bios's is just from installing ubuntu and a general knowledge of what they do
[06:05] <mbvpixies78> just like Sister Ray said
[06:05] <sam-_-> LostPenguin: y. i know...
[06:06] <dnivra> hello. how can I recreate the smb.conf file? i installed swat and it overwrote the original file. reinstalling samba did not help. neither did 'dpkg-reconfigure samba'
[06:06] <sam-_-> LostPenguin: do you have any restricted drivers?
[06:06] <mbvpixies78> noonian:  I troubleshot this thoroughly on the oldest of the comps, thinking it was bad, but I took out CMOS battery, also cleared CMOS by shorting the pins...  no luck, then one day it worked
[06:06] <madsailor> judgepg, I'll look into it.  Thanks
[06:06] <sam-_-> LostPenguin: if not you may try this kernel: http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/v2.6.34-lucid/
[06:06] <judgepg> madsailor: np
[06:07] <LostPenguin> I just upgraded to kernel2.6.32-28
[06:07] <bethdo97> Is there anoother way to download and apply needed updates and upgrades besides apt-get?  This doesn't seem to be working
[06:07] <judgepg> dnivra: see the original smb.conf from here: http://www.linuxformat.com/forums/viewtopic.php?p=59887
[06:08] <sam-_-> LostPenguin: like i said it's not in kernel 2.6.32 yet
[06:08] <sam-_-> LostPenguin: but 34 has the driver
[06:09] <mbvpixies78> can it be said that, generally, hardware firewalls are superior or more secure than software firewalls?  Or is it best to use both?
[06:09] <trans> plz help, no sound out of headphones
[06:09] <mbvpixies78> trans:  what type of headphone connection?
[06:09] <judgepg> mbvpixies78: Use a router, and then iptables (or ufw)
[06:09] <mbvpixies78> trans:  also, what kind of sound card?  What sound driver are you using?
[06:10] <trans> normal headphones, I don't know too much, it has a mick too
[06:10] <trans> sound card is realtek
[06:10] <mbvpixies78> trans:  small jack plug-in?
[06:10] <trans> yes
[06:10] <LostPenguin> "/lib/modules/*34/modules.usbmap" has an entry for 1f4d:2000?
[06:10] <mbvpixies78> trans:  where are you plugging it in?
[06:10] <dnivra> judgepg, thanks!
[06:10] <judgepg> dnivra: np
[06:10] <trans> it has 2 pins, blue and pink
[06:11] <mbvpixies78> judgepg:  that's what I'm doing, just trying to see if my knowledge is spotty
[06:11] <trans> I connected to blue and pink sockets
[06:11] <judgepg> mbvpixies78: nah, I'd say it's 'spot on' :)
[06:11] <mbvpixies78> judgepg:  ty, I'm studying security and programming, so it feels good to hear that
[06:11] <MadRobot> Where do I find the latest/current Ubuntu archive automatic signing key?
[06:12] <mbvpixies78> MadRobot:  usually there are key servers
[06:12] <trans> have I connected properly??
[06:12] <guest_0_0_> trans go to terminal - type --> alsamixer
[06:12] <mbvpixies78> argh..  metasploit refuses to install yet again
[06:12] <MadRobot> mbvpixies78, key servers?
[06:12] <bazhang> 437D05B5 MadRobot the gpg standard one
[06:12] <guest_0_0_> check if there is something muted
[06:12] <trans> ok
[06:13] <MadRobot> bazhang, great. But this is giving me a BADSIG error.
[06:13] <picocall> does anyone know how to disable the user interface in ubuntu but still be able to run skype and skype only?
[06:13] <trans> alsamixer window is opened
[06:13] <guest_0_0_> ok you can adjust volumes
[06:13] <bazhang> MadRobot, what command did you try or was it during an operation
[06:13] <guest_0_0_> there may be something muted there
[06:14] <mbvpixies78> MadRobot:  my knowledge is slim, but there are specific depots, servers, that contain keys
[06:14] <MadRobot> bazhang, sudo apt-get update
[06:14] <trans> in headphones its showing 00, I cant increase its volume
[06:14] <bazhang> !gpgerr | MadRobot
[06:14] <guest_0_0_> move to headphones with arrow keys
[06:14] <guest_0_0_> then up arrow to increase volume
[06:14] <trans> thats what I did, volume is not going up
[06:15] <mbvpixies78> trans:  what desktop are you using? K?
[06:15] <MadRobot> bazhang, That's the problem, some project do not make it easy to find their GPG keyword.
[06:15] <guest_0_0_> trans it may be muted - press m
[06:15] <trans> 10.10
[06:15] <bazhang> MadRobot, which one
[06:16] <picocall> does anyone know how to disable the user interface in ubuntu but still be able to run skype and skype only? i want to make a skype server for my house and keep it as only that.
[06:16] <mbvpixies78> trans:  there should be GUI software to adjust volumes
[06:16] <trans> it wasn't muted
[06:16] <bozdog> Hi all does anyone know how  I remove google earth from my ubuntu 10.10?
[06:16] <trans> which gui
[06:16] <sam-_-> LostPenguin: the modmap is not included. you can recreate it via "depmod -a"
[06:16] <MadRobot> bazhang, http://paste.pocoo.org/show/328596/
[06:16] <sam-_-> LostPenguin: it's never included
[06:16] <mbvpixies78> trans: depends on your desktop-- gnome, kde, etc.  kmixer, not sure of the name for gnome as I'm new to it
[06:17] <dnivra> output of testparm(http://paste.ubuntu.com/559790/) means that something is wrong with config file right?
[06:17] <trans> gnome desktop
[06:17] <intok> Whats the best way to rip an uncompressed .iso of a dvd, I don't want to transcode to another format, just back it up.
[06:18] <picocall> does anyone know how to disable the user interface in ubuntu but still be able to run skype and skype only? i want to make a skype server for my house and keep it as only that. anyone know?
[06:18] <Guest04825> I put 10.10 on a CD and rebooted my computer, the ubuntu logo popped up and the red/white dots eventually stopped rotating and are just all red now, the disc drive stopped "working" -- what could this mean? Its been at least 10 minutes
[06:18] <MadRobot> bazhang, And after unchecking the Wakoopa repository from Software Sources, I still get this error: http://paste.pocoo.org/show/328597/
[06:19] <mbvpixies78> trans:  for the easiest attempt, go to your software add program and search "mixer" or sound mixer
[06:19] <mbvpixies78> trans:  it sounds like you just need to change volume
[06:20] <trans> I'm searching for miser
[06:20] <guest_0_0_> trans are you sure there isn't MM at the bottom of the screen for the head phone channel?
[06:20] <LostPenguin> sam-_- depmod will only load it in to the OS, it will not know to associate it with the device unless it's properly added to the kernel
[06:20] <trans> yes I'm sure
[06:20] <trans> its shoing 00
[06:20] <guest_0_0_> ok
[06:20] <trans> even after pressing up, volume isn't going up
[06:20] <guest_0_0_> are there other channel with MM
[06:20] <guest_0_0_> ?
[06:21] <trans> yup, like surround, front, center are MM
[06:21] <sam-_-> LostPenguin: yes. basically it strips the modules of the information and puts this in the modmap files
[06:21] <guest_0_0_> try umuting them
[06:21] <trans> ok, unmuted everything
[06:22] <trans> hi but my volume applet just shoing blank now
[06:22] <trans> like muted
[06:22] <picocall> does anyone know how to disable the user interface in ubuntu but still be able to run skype and skype only? i want to make a skype server for my house and keep it as only that. anyone know? i really need help
[06:22] <judgepg> picocall: I think no one does
[06:23] <picocall> what about maybe hiding the menu bar at least?
[06:23] <trans> do I need to reboot?
[06:23] <guest_0_0_> trans press f2
[06:23] <guest_0_0_> then select cards and press enter
[06:23] <trans> ok
[06:23] <guest_0_0_> what card shows?
[06:24] <picocall> judgepg: what about hiding the menu bar?
[06:24] <trans> HDA intel HDA ATI SH and HDA ATI SB at 0xfe024000 irq 16│
[06:24] <judgepg> picocall: you don't want to see the graphical user interface (gdm)?
[06:25] <guest_0_0_> trans: do you have sound without the headphones?
[06:25] <picocall> judgepg: right, but i need skype to be on the screen too
[06:25] <trans> yep I had
[06:25] <trans> now spearkers are out too
[06:26] <lewix> hi
[06:26] <picocall> judgepg: not sure if thats possible is it?
[06:26] <guest_0_0_> trans: check you didn't mute the speakers in alsamixer
[06:26] <judgepg> picocall: right-click the menu bar and select close?
[06:26] <lewix> how can i upgrade adobe flash to watch youtube videos
[06:26] <lewix> update*
[06:26] <trans> wait, now I can hear my sound out of speakers, but if I play audio nothing is coming out
[06:26] <guest_0_0_> trans the master volume isn't muted in alsamixer is it?
[06:26] <judgepg> picocall: I take that back.  You might need another window manager perhaps (not gnome)
[06:27] <trans> its not muted
[06:27] <trans> I removed mute out of everything
[06:27] <picocall> judgepg: i was about to say...
[06:27] <lewix> thats unbelievable how linux became so user-friendly over the years
[06:27] <guest_0_0_> trans: ok you have sound - what are you trying to play when you have no sound?
[06:27] <lewix> me is reminiscing back in the days
[06:27]  * lewix is reminiscing back in the days
[06:28] <trans> I played songs
[06:28] <judgepg> lewix: early days of slackware? :)
[06:28] <trans> today is the first time I connected headphones to my PC
[06:28] <guest_0_0_> trans: have you installed the appropriate codecs?
[06:29] <lewix> judgepg, I remember the first time i installed linux (debian) it took me the entire day, today it took me about 20min
[06:29] <trans> means, sound was working fine till now, I encountered problem only after connecting headphones
[06:29] <judgepg> lewix: if you still want to relive those days, install linux from scratch :)
[06:29] <trans> guest_0_0_: all multimedia codecs were installed
[06:30] <picocall> judgepg: basically i need to hide the ubuntu gui, have skype appear on startup, then shutdown the computer if its closed. but im mainly worried about the gui, ill see what i can find, thanks for the help tho :)
[06:30] <judgepg> lewix: I remember that as well
[06:30] <lewix> judgepg, no thank you...although linux changed over time I didnt. Im still pretty much clueless
[06:30] <lewix> =)
[06:30] <dnivra> trans, just a thought. is your speakers working fine?
[06:30] <guest_0_0_> trans: save anything important then go to terminal - type - sudo pkill Xorg
[06:31] <trans> yep speakers were fine till I connected headphones
[06:32] <OY1R> Why when installing ubuntu 10.10 is the "forward" button grayed out and i read "Ready when you are...!" (im stuck at the "Who are you? screen)
[06:32] <judgepg> picocall: What is a skype server?  Is it just the skype beta app?  If the skype server is just a process/service, then kill gdm (just becareful runnign this command).  In another console, type sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop
[06:33] <judgepg> lewix: lol
[06:33] <trans> hello again
[06:33] <guest_0_0_> trans : any luck?
[06:33] <picocall> judgepg: no, its a computer running skype with a pc-to-phoneline adapter
[06:33] <picocall> judgepg: :)
[06:34] <pc_> any body know how to use Gromacs ? I installed it but I could not find how to access it .
[06:34] <trans> nopes, I heard the sound when it u get the login screen, but no sound afterwards, playing songs, but no sound
[06:35] <judgepg> trans: sorry if I'm cutting in, but perhaps try to reinstall pulseaudio?
[06:35] <LostPenguin> sam-_- I still can not see how I use depmod to add device ids to the kernel
[06:35] <guest_0_0_> trans: have you installed the gstreamer plugins?
[06:35] <picocall> trans: try looking up Qt 4.4.0, D-Bus 1.0.0, libasound2 1.0.18, PulseAudio 0.9.16, or BlueZ 4.0.0
[06:35] <trans> yep installed, now I got sound out of speakers, but no sound of headphones
[06:35] <sam-_-> LostPenguin: i did not claim that you could do that with depmod
[06:35] <trans> gstreamer is fine
[06:36] <dnivra> trans, so you can play songs and it works fine through speakers. am I right?
[06:36] <trans> reinstalling pulse audio is way out of my reach, not expert yet
[06:36] <ksnp> how do i display starting the system with kde ? just command line is what i want
[06:36] <dnivra> trans, please click on volume control and select sound preferences. this might be the case but I'm not sure.
[06:36] <trans> dnivra: yes, no sound out of headphones
[06:36] <judgepg> apt-get install --reinstall pulseaudio
[06:36] <pc_> please help in access Gromacs ,, anybody ??
[06:37] <dnivra> trans, in sound preferences -> output tab, what is the value of connector?
[06:37] <LostPenguin> ok, then how do I do what I'm trying to do?
[06:37] <intok> Whats the best way to rip an uncompressed .iso of a dvd, I don't want to transcode to another format, just back it up.
[06:37] <dnivra> trans, if it says "Analog speakers", change it to "Analog output".
[06:37] <picocall> judgepg: i think fluxbox may be my answer to the gui problem
[06:37] <MadRobot> bazhang, It seems I managed to fix it now.
[06:37] <trans> connector: if I put it to speakers, I'll get sound, if I put it to headphones no sound
[06:37] <MadRobot> bazhang, Thanks a lot for your help.
[06:37] <judgepg> picocall: lots of windows managers around that you can certainly use
[06:38] <dnivra> trans, i'm not sure if you followed what i said. did you open sound preferences?
[06:38] <picocall> judgepg: fluxbox has customizable themes, so i could write a custom theme for it
[06:38] <trans> yep, I have opened sound preferences
[06:38] <sam-_-> LostPenguin: the link you gave me for the driver is for 2.6.28 only and there is no source to recompile it yourself. so...
[06:39] <dnivra> trans, go to the output tab.
[06:39] <trans> ok
[06:39] <judgepg> picocall: yep.  Also, if you need simplicity, try looking into xmonad
[06:39] <LostPenguin> unless I do something myself, it won;t be seen by the kernel
[06:39] <sam-_-> LostPenguin: you have the options of installing a newer kernel from the source i gave you. or...
[06:39] <dnivra> do you see an option at the bottom which says 'connector'?
[06:39] <dnivra> trans, ^^
[06:39] <LostPenguin> any kernel, because this hardware provider is not in the kernel
[06:39] <sam-_-> LostPenguin: compile a new kernel yourself or...
[06:39] <sam-_-> LostPenguin: upgrade to maverick
[06:40] <ksnp> how do i display starting the system with kde ? just command line is what i want
[06:40] <trans> yep: there is connector with two options, headphones and analog output
[06:40] <schutzstaffel> I need an advise. I am using lucid without problem should i upgrade to maverick?
[06:40] <LostPenguin> "/lib/modules/*34/modules.usbmap" has an entry for 1f4d:2000 in maverick?
[06:40] <sam-_-> LostPenguin: are you sure about that and if so why?
[06:40] <picocall> judgepg: i'll do that, another question, does ubuntu support using bluetooth headsets as input/output?
[06:40] <trans> if I put to analog output I get sound out of speakers
[06:40] <pc_> gromacs user ,, any ???
[06:40] <dnivra> trans, only two options? that is odd, i have three.
[06:40] <dnivra> trans, select headphones and i guess you'll get output to headphones.
[06:40] <trans> which one dnivra
[06:41] <dnivra> trans, you have only two options? what are they?
[06:41] <trans> if I select headphones no sound out of headphones
[06:41] <judgepg> picocall: afaik
[06:41] <ksnp> how do i display starting the system with kde ? just command line is what i want
[06:41] <trans> dnivra: analog headphones and analog output
[06:41] <picocall> judgepg: is that a pkg or what?
[06:41] <dnivra> trans, try select both options and see if headphones work.
[06:41] <picocall> judgepg: facepalm, i know what it means
[06:42] <judgepg> picocall: lol
[06:42] <trans> tried both, If I select analog output I get sound out of headphones
[06:42] <trans> sorry speakers
[06:42] <LostPenguin> I've tried modprobe and what modprobe loads won't see the device without the ID
[06:42] <picocall> judgepg: its like that firefox error page "well... this is embarassing"
[06:42] <dnivra> trans, and what if you select 'analog headphones'?
[06:42] <trans> but no output out of headphones
[06:43] <trans> if I select analog headphones, its blank, I cant hear any sound
[06:43] <guest_0_0_> trans: are you positive the headphones are still working?
[06:43] <judgepg> picocall: gotta give them credit.  Unlike one of MSFT's exception handling errors: 'A call that should never have failed, has failed'
[06:43] <trans> hmm, I didn't check, its new piece
[06:43] <guest_0_0_> might be worth trying them with something else to be sure they work
[06:44] <trans> hmm, I'll try with mp3 player and will be back in a minute
[06:44] <sam-_-> LostPenguin: did you load it by force bc. it shouldn't even load that easily bc. of the different kernel versino
[06:44] <picocall> judgepg: yes :D haha, this xmonad seems like it would be easier to use than fluxbox since the no title bar is built in
[06:44] <LostPenguin> sam-_- the one in the current version
[06:45] <sam-_-> LostPenguin: ok. how is the modules called then?
[06:45] <noonian> i like xmonad, but when i use it people who see my comp think linux is ugly :(
[06:46] <trans> no sound of mp3 player, but are these compatible with mp3 players
[06:46] <picocall> judgepg: what is the code name for 10.10? natty or maverick?
[06:46] <LostPenguin> sam-_- I can load every driver that comes with the kernel, but without the hardware IDs, it will never use them
[06:46] <noonian> maverick
[06:46] <picocall> oh, ok, thanks, lol
[06:47] <guest_0_0_> trans: it sounds like the new headphones aren't working
[06:47] <guest_0_0_> have you got another set of working headphones?
[06:47] <sam-_-> LostPenguin: y. which one do you think would be the correct one for your device?
[06:47] <trans> I have another but without microphone
[06:47] <judgepg> picocall: take a look at this: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DevelopmentCodeNames
[06:47] <trans> guest_0_0_: can I test with them
[06:47] <guest_0_0_> trans: try that and see if you get sound
[06:48] <LostPenguin> dvb-usb-cxusb is what is listed in the old kernel it compiled to
[06:48] <Zaine> is this the right place to get help with bsh scripts aswell?
[06:48] <mbvpixies78_> I'm still looking into "looking up" every time I open a web site...  someone passed me a link to find a nearby dns server but I lost it...  can anyone resend this?
[06:48] <Zaine> bash*
[06:48] <trans> hmm, on pink socket, right?
[06:48] <guest_0_0_> I think so but you could try other sockets
[06:49] <trans> not working, I think I have to interchange sockets and try
[06:49] <guest_0_0_> yes
[06:49] <dnivra> Zaine, #bash
[06:50] <Zaine> ok ty dnivra
[06:50] <picocall> judgepg: i think im gonna make a vm of ubuntu to try it on, im on windows right now (boo!)
[06:50] <linuxpusher> whats windows? lol
[06:50] <mbvpixies78_> anyone know why my browser says "looking up" every time I surf to a different web site?  I already tried flishing DNS cache
[06:51] <pretender> has anyone got the facebook uploader working with picasa if so how
[06:51] <tiyowan> linuxpusher: life without doors
[06:51] <trans> If I connect green socket I get output but what about microphone, still I cant give any input
[06:51] <mbvpixies78_> theres a tool to help find nearby DNS servers, but I didn't get the link
[06:51] <linuxpusher> hahah
[06:51] <judgepg> lmao
[06:51] <guest_0_0_> trans: is there another cable for the microphone
[06:51] <mbvpixies78_> anyone know the tool?
[06:51] <lewix> judgepg, lost my connection shoot
[06:51] <trans> nopes
[06:51] <mbvpixies78_> noonan:  you still here?
[06:51] <judgepg> lewix: hey, welcome back
[06:51] <lewix> judgepg, what struck me was the possibility to install ubuntu right from windows like a regular windows app
 I was like no shit* sorry my french
 back in the days something like that would have been the holy grail
[06:51] <FloodBot3> lewix: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
[06:51] <madsailor> judgepg, lol at the possibility of oneric octopus for 11.10 in your link
[06:52] <mbvpixies78_> noonian:  you still here?
[06:52] <lewix> aha dont use enter as punctuation. i love that quote
[06:52] <guest_0_0_> trans: so there is only one cable coming from them
[06:52] <picocall> judgepg: windows 7 sucks, hahaha.
[06:52] <judgepg> lewix: we talking abotu wubi?
[06:52] <trans> yep
[06:52] <judgepg> picocall: I like win7...
[06:52] <lewix> judgepg, right wubi.
[06:52] <noonian> mbvpixies78,  sometimes hehe
[06:52] <LostPenguin> Win 7 loads my drivers just fine --;
[06:53] <mbvpixies78_> trans:  still troubleshooting mic, huh?  Can you test it on another comp?
[06:53] <judgepg> lewix: that still blows my mind how it's just an app
[06:53] <picocall> judgepg: i mean, its okay for some stuff but its pretty buggy with alot of stuff too
[06:53] <trans> hmm, no computer here, I have to another mile to test
[06:53] <guest_0_0_> trans: if there is only one cable I'm not sure how you are going to get input
[06:53] <mbvpixies78_> noonian:  you sent me the name of a program or some such that would find nearest fastest DNS server, can you resend?
[06:53] <trans> tough luck today
[06:53] <lewix> me too, thats just insane, how fast linux improved in such a short amount of time
[06:53] <mbvpixies78_> trans:  is it a new headset?
[06:53] <noonian> mbvpixies78, i dont think that was me lol :P
[06:54] <trans> from headphones there are 2 cables, I though u asked about speakers
[06:54] <mbvpixies78_> noonian:  ah, sorry
[06:54] <lewix> thats pretty much as user friendly as it gets
[06:54] <trans> its a new headset
[06:54] <noonian> mbvpixies78, no worries
[06:54] <judgepg> picocall: that's because the all too famous 'windows rot' phenomenon.  Google it to learn more - it's been around since I belive Windows 98 days
[06:54] <mbvpixies78_> noonian:  it was n-something
[06:54] <picocall> judgepg: compared to linux, its like, trying to play a ps3 game on an atari. xD ill look that up
[06:54] <guest_0_0_> one cable from headset goes to the input socket and the other to the headphone output socket
[06:55] <judgepg> picocall: lol
[06:55] <trans> before I logged off I could here whatever I speak out of speakers
[06:55] <mbvpixies78_> Ahah!  Namebench!  That's it!
[06:55] <trans> I think I need to re-route the output
[06:55] <gunndawg> Back!
[06:55] <judgepg> gunndawg: HEY!
[06:55] <Syria> Guys I was told about a free vpn site so how can I connect to their vpn please? i want to do this to browse the blocked sites like facebook.
[06:55] <judgepg> gunndawg: how did the install go?
[06:55] <gunndawg> judgepg all reformatted and back up and running
[06:55] <judgepg> gunndawg: woot!
[06:55] <lewix> judgepg, what movie player do you use
[06:55] <sabinista> .
[06:55] <lewix> mplayer?
[06:55] <gunndawg> judgepg, how big is the ubuntu swap file ?
[06:55] <mbvpixies78_> google offers namebench to find nearest, fastest DNS server
[06:56] <judgepg> lewix: vlc, but mplayer is also really good, yep
[06:56] <judgepg> gunndawg: I think it's 2x RAM
[06:56] <gunndawg> Judgepg out of a 250gb HDD, after install and updates I am sitting on 210gb free
[06:57] <Syria> !vpn
[06:57] <madsailor> <-glad to see gunndawgs mission was successful...and fast
[06:57] <judgepg> madsailor: that was pretty fast install wasn't it?
[06:57] <trans> I think I'll reboot and check, if something happens
[06:57] <lewix> judgepg, im trying to download vlc but its taking forever . my connection died for some unknown reasons so Im using someone else's....the generous guy is pronbably living 5miles away
[06:58] <gunndawg> madsailor, judgepg, I would have been here even faster if I didnt accidently grab and install my old ubuntu 8.10 cd, lol
[06:58] <madsailor> judgepg, have to admit, def faster than re-part and expand
[06:58] <mbvpixies78_> where should I typically put a new program in fiesystem?
[06:58] <mbvpixies78_> filesystem
[06:58] <judgepg> madsailor: oh yeah for sure.  And everything is clean to boot.  No messing around with files
[06:58] <mbvpixies78_> bin? sbin? home/something...
[06:59] <dnivra> I want to share files with another person using samba. now passwordless logins don't work-it says 'unable to mount share' always for some reason. what I would like to do is to create a share that can be accessed by people logging in as 'guest123', a user in my machine. is this possible in samba?
[06:59] <judgepg> lewix: mplayer is also good if you're using it
[06:59] <A_J> o/ all
[07:00] <mbvpixies78_> dnivra:  that's definitely possible, and the mount problem is usually privilege-related
[07:00] <judgepg> dnivra: yeah, you'd setup a samba password for that user, and create the share in the smb.conf file I believe
[07:00] <picocall> judgepg: oh geez, if thats what windows rot is, my computer must be like, a pile of week old guacamole left out in the sun for a week. i have a 2.2GHz Celeron (dont mock me, im broke xD) and it surpasses the benchmark for the Core i3 when i was on ubuntu, in windows though, the thing practically laughed at me, it basically said my dual core netbook with an atom is faster
[07:00] <techitch> hey guys, i'm having this problem - i mount a windows share using cifs and fstab..this works fine..i'm mounting the shares to /mnt - i need to get access to these folders from another application running within a chroot so im trying to mount /mnt using bind to another folder inside a chroot however when i mount it i cannot see the contents of the windows shares...
[07:01] <mbvpixies78_> I'm not an expert on linux file systems...  where should I typically install a new program?
[07:01] <dnivra> mbvpixies78, the folder I'm sharing has permissions 755.
[07:01] <mikeliss> Question: Can I substitute sudo make install for sudo checkinstall, and if I can, will the same arguments apply successfully?
[07:01] <LostPenguin> thanks for trying sam-_- but this OS is beyond help....
[07:01] <TeslaTony> My webcam is extremely jerky when trying to capture video, but the preview seems OK. Any way to fix this? I'm using an HP Mini 110 with the built-in cam
[07:02] <judgepg> picocall: which is an all-to-often unfortunate reason why people say their computers are 'slow'.  It's just the natural progression of windows using up more memory and space
[07:02] <mbvpixies78_> dnivra:  I'm no expert, just guessing 700 is a number that's thrown around a lot...  I usually use + or - rwx
[07:02] <lewix> has it even happened to you guys that your modem dont get internet reception for about an hour
[07:02] <dnivra> judgepg, well i created the share in smb.conf as well as set up a samba password for the user guest123. i have two shares-the default print$, which guest123 can access but can't access the other.
[07:02] <dnivra> mbvpixies78_, okay i meant the permissions are drwxr-xr-x.
[07:02] <Jeffery> hi
[07:03] <mbvpixies78_> dnivra:  I usually just make the remote computer log in with the local creds, but creating a new account just for that works the same way
[07:03] <dnivra> mbvpixies78, also this folder is located in my home directory. thought I should mention that.
[07:03] <Jeffery>  :)
[07:03] <Jeffery> sb there?
[07:03] <gunndawg> so glad I got this system set back up! now will full hdd space!
[07:03] <picocall> judgepg: my 250gb (231 formatted ntfs) has 127 left, when i installed win7, it went from 231 to like, 199 or less, i cant remember
[07:03] <gunndawg> need to get my plymouth theme installed again
[07:04] <dnivra> mbvpixies78_, the issue is that i have only one user-the admin. and letting others login as admin is not something i want. come as guest and leave as guest. sadly guest access doesn't work.
[07:04] <Chr|s> how do I remove (Mail, Compose New Message and Contacts) from the indicator applet? I already removed Evolution. I only want Thunderbird to show up.
[07:04] <mbvpixies78_> anyone, suggestions of where to place a newly installed program in filesystem?
[07:04] <dnivra> Jeffery, about 1354 people in varying states :).
[07:04] <Jeffery> .
[07:04] <judgepg> lol
[07:04] <mbvpixies78_> dnivra:  guest is probably too restrictive, not enough privs.  Create new acct as you said and give it privs you want, then test it
[07:05] <gunndawg> Can anyong recommend a good plymouth theme? so many out there
[07:05] <picocall> the rest is bittorrent stuff, photoshop, flash pro, emulators, and all that
[07:05] <judgepg> mbvpixies78_: what do you mean where to place a newly installed prgoram?
[07:05] <dnivra> mbvpixies78_, i created a new account named guest123. what privs should I check if it has so it can access the folder in the other user's home folder.
[07:05] <judgepg> program*
[07:06] <dnivra> judgepg, i'm guessing mbvpixies78_ is compiling from source?
[07:06] <mbvpixies78_> judgepg:  I downloaded a program, and am used to Ubuntu software installation...  where should I extract the new program folder to?
[07:06] <dnivra> mbvpixies78_, downloaded a deb file?
[07:07] <mbvpixies78_> dnivra:  you might want to create a group or simply user, either way, give it read, write execute if that's what you want, just make it a good password
[07:07] <ake21v> would anyone know how to change firefoxes default audio output
[07:07] <judgepg> dnivra: take a look at this snippet I put together, and see if it helps.  This goes into smb.conf: http://pastebin.com/EBjUi88Y
[07:07] <mbvpixies78_> dnivra:  it's google's namebench source tgz
[07:07] <dnivra> mbvpixies78_, notice my permissions-it's drwxr-xr-x. so by default, others have read permissions. right?
[07:08] <judgepg> mbvpixies78_: /usr/local/bin
[07:08] <picocall> judgepg: do you have yahoo im, skype, etc?
[07:08] <judgepg> picocall: nope
[07:08] <picocall> judgepg: nothing?
[07:08] <mbvpixies78_> dnivra:  well, the first 3 are the owner, the second three are the group and the third three (rwx) I forget..  might want to look up privs
[07:09] <mbvpixies78_> judgepg:  thanks...  I'm learning but it's a lot to learn!
[07:09] <noonian> the third set is for everyone else
[07:09] <dnivra> judgepg, mbvpixies78 i'm guessing it is a privs issue-i shared a file in /media/<drive> and it worked fine. guessing $home is the problem
[07:10] <judgepg> mbvpixies78_: this might help: http://www.tuxfiles.org/linuxhelp/linuxdir.html
[07:10] <mbvpixies78_> judgepg:  ty
[07:10] <judgepg> mbvpixies78_: np
[07:10] <intok> Whats the best way to rip an uncompressed .iso of a dvd, I don't want to transcode to another format, just back it up.
[07:10] <judgepg> dnivra: isn't that what mbvpixies78_ has been saying?
[07:11] <bazhang> intok, ogmrip
[07:11] <jrib> intok: vobcopy
[07:11] <dnivra> judgepg, yeah but well the baffling part is the permissions are rwxr-xr-x which means any user can read it.
[07:11] <judgepg> so the share points to /home/guest123 ?
[07:11] <mbvpixies78_> ok, newb question time-- how do I extract a tgz command-line?
[07:12] <noonian> dnivra, what are you sharing?
[07:12] <gunndawg> dang I have a ton of package updates
[07:12] <intok> bazhang ogmrip doesn't make .iso files, it transcodes, and apparently doesn't do webm yet
[07:12] <jrib> mbvpixies78_: tar xf file.tar.gz
[07:12] <noonian> mbvpixies78, tar -xvf <name>.tar.gz
[07:12] <dnivra> noonian, a folder owned by me with others: ~/cv . i want others to login as guest123 and be able to view them.
[07:13] <ake21v> does anyone know how to change the default audio output of firefox, My Sounds working when I play a song but not through firefox
[07:13] <mbvpixies78_> dnivra:  if you want them to be able to modify files, set permissions such, otherwise just read and execute (or maybe just read?)
[07:13] <gunndawg> Can anyone recommend a good plymouth theme? so many to choose from
[07:13] <intok> bazhang either way I don't want to transcode, but make an image of the disc
[07:13] <judgepg> dnivra: ok so it is a permission problem...
[07:13] <mbvpixies78_> dnivra:  since it is home file, be cautious
[07:13] <picocall> Goodbye everyone! Thanks for the help!
[07:13] <dnivra> mbvpixies78_, 'r' does mean read and I'm sure all have read permissions.
[07:13] <judgepg> picocall: goodnight
[07:14] <A_J> o/
[07:14] <bazhang> intok, intok if memory serves it does make a copy, no encoding at all.
[07:14] <mbvpixies78_> dnivra:  you could also just copy shared files to public folder, that way home is more secure and you have a second copy in case
[07:14] <intok> jrib does it actually make a .iso image file or does vobcopy just pull the TS files?
[07:14] <ake21v> would anyone know how to change the default sound output for firefox
[07:14] <noonian> dnivra, how can they access the file? does your home directory have read permissions also?
[07:14] <red2kic> gunndawg: plymouth-text?
[07:14] <picocall> judgepg: night, thanks for telling me about xmonad
[07:14] <Gnea> intok: vobcopy copies the vob files
[07:14] <dnivra> noonian, that is exactly what I was just checking and no :)
[07:14] <judgepg> picocall: np
[07:14] <mbvpixies78_> dnivra:  is the problem connection?  is there a permissions error when trying to access files?  where's the rub?
[07:14] <fmax30> how can you connect to wireless internet through terminal ?
[07:15] <Gnea> intok: iirc, it grabs everything else, too
[07:15] <bazhang> !wifi | fmax30 have a read
[07:15] <gunndawg> fmax30 you dont need to use a terminal to do that
[07:15] <dnivra> mbvpixies78_, what noonian said i think is the issue-gotta grant read permission on $HOME>
[07:15] <noonian> dnivra, you could make a symlink to the folder or something
[07:15] <jrib> intok: vobcopy, does not make a .iso.  But it can mirror your disc to your hard drive.  If you want an iso, just use dd...
[07:15] <judgepg> fmax30: ifconfig wlan0 up; dhclient wlan0 (and hope it picks up the dhcp address).
[07:15] <matelot> Hello, I want to test accessing my home network externally
[07:15] <noonian> dnivra, so you dont have to expose eveything else in your home
[07:15] <red2kic> intok: Brasero can do the job.
[07:15] <fmax30> gunndawwg : i know
[07:15] <matelot> it's pingable
[07:16] <matelot> I have a simple web server running
[07:16] <fmax30> gunddawg : i am trying to connect through tty mode
[07:16] <dnivra> noonian, symlink eh? seems like a nice idea. I''ll look into it. thanks!
[07:16] <mbvpixies78_> I love xmarks
[07:16] <mbvpixies78_> I hate forgetting passwords
[07:16] <bazhang> fmax30, then read the link I sent you
[07:16] <matelot> I set up port forwarding but it's not working
[07:16] <noonian> dnivra, good luck!
[07:16] <bazhang> fmax30, its explains it all in great detail
[07:16] <intok> jrib whats dd?
[07:17] <fmax30> alas it never finds a hcp offer
[07:17] <judgepg> fmax30: it's a bit of a pain in the ass to get wireless setup from a terminal actually, especially if it's WPA encryption.
[07:17] <dnivra> well I'm off. thanks noonian , mbvpixies78_ , judgepg for all your help!
[07:17] <fmax30> i only have WEP connect
[07:17] <jrib> intok: dd reads from one place and spits it out to another place basically.
[07:17] <judgepg> dnivra: cya - take care
[07:17] <mbvpixies78_> dnivra:  good luck!
[07:17] <judgepg> I'm off to bed as well - have a good night folks
[07:17] <mbvpixies78_> judgepg:  gnight
[07:17] <miststlkr> perhaps this is the wrong place to ask, but is there a way to use the 10.10 sound menu in 10.04? has it been backported at all?  my google-fu is failing me, so I'm guessing perhaps not.
[07:18] <mbvpixies78_> miststlkr:  with a name like that--  google-fu, I'm not surprised, lol
[07:18] <mbvpixies78_> j/k
[07:19] <fmax30> i set everything using iwconfig  my key , the channel ap is on, the bssid of the ap , auth type
[07:19] <Syria> guys do you know where can i find a free vpn service?
[07:19] <jrib> !ot | Syria
[07:19] <fmax30> then i do a dhclient eth1
[07:19] <mbvpixies78_> miststlkr:  seriously though, sounds like something no one's ever done, i.e., not worth the trouble, unless you get lucky in a forum search
[07:19] <fmax30> all iget is messages saying no lease or something
[07:19] <endhiran> best weather tool
[07:19] <bazhang> fmax30, did you actually check the link I sent you?
[07:19] <Syria> jrib sure.. :s I missed that.
[07:20] <fmax30> bazhag: checking it
[07:20] <miststlkr> mbvpixies78: that was the impression I got too.  thanks
[07:20] <jrib> intok: if that's what you want to do, usage is fairly straightforward: dd if=/dev/dvd of=/path/to/iso
[07:20] <mbvpixies78_> crap, can someone spot me the command to extract a tgz again, I lost it off the history
[07:21] <endhiran> weather tool which shows weather from www.weather.com
[07:21] <jrib> mbvpixies78_: tar xf file.tar.gz
[07:22] <giannis> Hi. Suppose i have a C program that wants to read a file from a folder. But this file is being downloading right now from Internet and it's not ready yet for reading it. Is there any way to make my program know that??? Thanks! :)
[07:22] <jrib> giannis: probably more of a ##c question
[07:22] <sam-_-> giannis: ask in ##c
[07:22] <giannis> thanks
[07:23] <giannis> sam-_-: how can i join in #c? it says that i have to be invited
[07:23] <noonian> mbvpixies78, actually you might need tar -xzf for a gzipped tar file
[07:23] <sam-_-> !register | giannis
[07:24] <sam-_-> noonian: xf should be just fine
[07:24] <mbvpixies78_> I wish you could just intimidate computers into doing what you want...  is that evil of me?
[07:25] <sam-_-> !ot | mbvpixies78_
[07:25] <miststlkr> alright, one that may have better answer: I mounted a network share to a directory in the root path and trying to chgrp it and I am told that I don't have permissions, even using sudo and sudo -i
[07:25] <fmax30> ok that actually didn't help
[07:26] <mbvpixies78_> I would like to think ethics and ubuntu go hand in hand, but whatever, I stand corrected
[07:26] <fmax30> the link seems to think that i cannot connect at all to the wap, but my question is merely how to connect to wap using tty mode
[07:27] <Koshka> I'm changing to Ubuntu and wondered how to start services. Google pointed me to System>admin>Services but I don't have that in my 10.10? Am I missing a package or has it been renamed/re-located since 2008?
[07:28] <Mickle> There is the game XSoldier in Debian. What another games do you know in terminal?
[07:30] <bazhang> fmax30, what exactly from that link did you try. please clarify and paste.ubuntu.com the exact commands you used the exact errors you received.
[07:30] <bazhang> fmax30, paste.ubuntu.com not here
[07:30] <fmax30> ok
[07:31] <bazhang> Mickle, xsoldier is in the ubuntu repos as well
[07:31] <fmax30> be back in a minute
[07:31] <Geoffrey2> has anyone in here tried Ubuntu One yet?  I have yet to figure out how to set it up to upload music....
[07:31] <amit_> locate whereis
[07:32] <bazhang> Geoffrey2, you may want to ask in #ubuntuone
[07:32] <matelot> can some one help me figure out why I can acess my home network http page ?
[07:32] <Mickle> bazhang, I understand you
[07:32] <Summy> Hey everyone, I think i'm in the right place? quick question...just got my acer 522 with amds new apu, the c-50, i'm been searching around but i thought i'd ask here, are drivers out? before i go uninstalling 7 starter
[07:32] <matelot> can not
[07:32] <Geoffrey2> bazhang, I will, hopefully there's actually someone alive in there this evening....
[07:33] <jokke_> Is there a way to turn off touchpad on your laptop though ubuntu?
[07:33] <sam-_-> Summy: i think natty has some support for the new apus
[07:33] <jokke_> i could easy do it in windows, but not sure how to in ubuntu :)
[07:34] <sam-_-> Summy: btw. did you measure how much power it draws in idle?
[07:34] <gunndawg> I'll ask one more then give it a rest. Can any anyone recommend a good plymouth/boot screen theme ? so many to choose from
[07:34] <amit_> how to change background of login screen?
[07:34] <nit-wit> jokke_, my acer does it with a fn-f7 combo
[07:34] <Summy> yea thats what i was reaading..bummer so i gotta wait for 11.04
[07:35] <Summy> I actually just started playing with it, i just got home from work
[07:35] <Summy> uninstalling stuff now
[07:35] <sam-_-> Summy: ok
[07:36] <Jeffery> ubuntu and archlinux..I cant decide which i use to.
[07:36] <gunndawg> Jeffery, Ubuntu is the obvious choice
[07:36] <rww> I wonder which one #ubuntu will recommend.
[07:36] <gunndawg> ;)
[07:36] <Summy> if i install ubuntu netbook verion what would happen?
[07:36] <jokke_> nit-wit: in windows i should press fast in the left up corner of the touchpad, and it would deactivate, but seems it does not work in ubuntu
[07:37] <gunndawg> Summy, you would then be using the netbook version of ubuntu, what kind of answer did you expect ?
[07:37] <Summy> sorry you didn't see what i said before that, i'm on amds new apu c-50
[07:38] <sam-_-> Summy: has the same drivers as the normal ubuntu just another interface
[07:39] <Stava> Is cedega open source/free now? Where do I get it? :o
[07:39] <Summy> sam: alrighty
[07:39] <madsailor> gunndawg,  this is a nice plymouth theme : http://gnome-look.org/content/show.php/Ubuntu+10.04+and+10.10+Plymouth+Splash?content=128607
[07:40] <gunndawg> madsailor lemme see
[07:40] <fmax30> bazhag: pasted at  http://paste.ubuntu.com/559799/
[07:40] <madsailor> gunndawg, still purple, but the logo etc is nice
[07:41] <gunndawg> madsailor, yeah I was looking at that one
[07:41] <gunndawg> looks nice
[07:42] <gunndawg> madsailor, actually I did install that one, but it never showed up when I would boot up, only showed up when I should shut down or restart
[07:42] <miststlkr> \part
[07:42] <miststlkr> LOL.  sorry.
[07:43] <fmax30> Can anyone point out what i am doing wrong here i have a wep protected network
[07:43] <fmax30>  http://paste.ubuntu.com/559799/
[07:43] <madsailor> gunndawg, dunno, didn;t have that issue...maybe it's a screen resolution issue?...but then it shouldn't ever show up restart or not
[07:44] <gunndawg> madsailor yeah I really want that theme also, the sunset ones work just fine
[07:45] <deadpigeon> stfu
[07:45] <madsailor> fmax30,  a little aside, you should REALLY go with WPA...wep is VERY easy to crack
[07:45] <deadpigeon> fat ass bitches
[07:45] <deadpigeon> whoops. thats was meant for #uncyclopedia
[07:45] <deadpigeon> i think we all can agree.
[07:45] <mbvpixies78_> deadpigeon: lol
[07:46] <gunndawg> madsailor when you install these plymouth themes and you have to pick a number (per the instructions) do you pick the manual or auto option? they both seem to do the same thing
[07:46] <mbvpixies78_> deadpigeon: I just switched in time to catch that one
[07:46] <deadpigeon> hehe.
[07:46] <deadpigeon> my fault im a little here and there.
[07:47] <madsailor> gunndawg, I went with auto, all worked fine, so as with most things, when things go well is when you learn the least...so all I can say is that auto workedfor me, dunno the difference, and if you find out I'd love to know ;)
[07:48] <gunndawg> madsailor, well I do have a fresh install so maybe I'll get lucky this time, gonna try to install it again
[07:49] <madsailor> gunndawg, seems  a bit repetitive, but again, I wish you good luck;)
[07:49] <fmax30> what am i doing wrong here ?
[07:49] <fmax30> http://paste.ubuntu.com/559799/
[07:50] <madsailor> gunndawg,  if id doesn't you'll be back lightning quick with another fresh install, I'm sure...as long as you get the right disk this time
[07:50] <gunndawg> madsailor, no if it doesnt work it just means the theme didnt work
[07:50] <gunndawg> madsailor, no need to reformat jsut cause a plymouth theme doesnt work, lol
[07:50] <gobbe> fmax30: there's spaces in ssid but in your line there is not, shouldn't there be?
[07:51] <fmax30> gobbe: it doesnt accept spaces from me
[07:51] <gunndawg> madsailor, anyways I just installed that plymouth theme so i am gonna give it a reboot and see what happends, brb bud
[07:51] <madsailor> gunndawg,  coming from someone who just formatted over win 7 :)
[07:51] <fmax30> the command doesnt execute , i have space in my essid
[07:51] <gobbe> fmax30: what does it say?
[07:52] <gunndawg> madsailor, can you blame me for not wanting to waste precious HDD space on an OS made by winblows?
[07:52] <madsailor> not at all, not at all
[07:52] <gobbe> fmax30: and did you use it like essid "The Dark Side"
[07:52] <fmax30> yes
[07:52] <gunndawg> madsailor, ok brb gonna see if this theme installed
[07:52] <fmax30> if i do that well my essid is set to off/any
[07:52] <madsailor> adios
[07:53] <gobbe> fmax30: anyway using spaces in ssid is not good idea :-)
[07:53] <fmax30> so should i change it from my ap ?
[07:53] <gobbe> fmax30: i would go and do that
[07:53] <eXpLoD> is today ubuntu day or what?
[07:53] <gobbe> fmax30: because now your ubuntu is connected to ap but using different ssid
[07:54] <fmax30> one more thing
[07:54] <fmax30> i am connected to my ap at the moment using the network manager app
[07:55] <fmax30> if i do a iwconfig eth1 , it shows my essid as "The Dark Side", when there is no way to set it to that specific ssid using console
[07:56] <fmax30> *Terminal
[07:56] <gobbe> yep, that's what i told, The Dark Side and TheDarkSIde are not same thing
[07:56] <Lewoco> I'm trying to get my nVidia GT 220 to work. I already installed nvidia-glx and rebooted, but xdpyinfo does not report any GLX support. What else do I need to do to make the nvidia drivers work?
[07:56] <gobbe> but is there specific reason why you want to do it from terminal and not to use network manager?
[07:57] <^Mike> How can I stop the warning "dpkg: warning: files list file for package `movabletype-opensource' missing, assuming package has no files currently installed." ?
[07:57] <fmax30> gobbe : well when i boot into tty mode, using the terminal is the only way
[07:57] <gobbe> fmax30: that's true
[07:57] <gunndawg> back
[07:57] <gobbe> fmax30: so if you can, change the ssid from your ap
[07:57] <gunndawg> madsailor, I did 3 restarts and only once the plymouth screen/theme showed up. I wonder if things are loading to quick to show it and it just blows past it or what, I dunno
[07:58] <fmax30> i can and i will, if the problem still persists i will come , anyway thans for all you help
[07:58] <fmax30> *back
[07:58] <gunndawg> madsailor, but that wouldnt make sense because the earth sunrise theme showed every time
[07:59] <HullN> is der a way to run ubuntu on windows
[07:59] <HullN> just like virtual xp on windows 7
[07:59] <madsailor> gunndawg, hahah..you'd have to run slow windoze to see something like the plymouth splash  funny thought
[07:59] <madsailor> gunndawg, It may have something to do with the script that  calls the theme
[08:00] <gunndawg> madsailor, but like I said the earth sunrise theme showed every time
[08:00] <gunndawg> madsailor, I might have found a fix, in root (sudo su) do this:
[08:01] <gunndawg> echo FRAMEBUFFEr=Y > /etc/iniramfs-tools/conf.d/splash
[08:01] <madsailor> gunndawg, the one in the plymouth theme directory specific to that theme...which is theme dev issue, but again, I'm out of my area here
[08:01] <gunndawg> im gonna try this fix, see what happends
[08:02] <madsailor> gunndawg, lemme know...interesting
[08:02] <gunndawg> madsailor I am getting permission denied when I try to run it
[08:04] <madsailor> gunndawg, you might have to run a command like that as sudo...be careful about breaking things as sudo
[08:04] <gunndawg> yeah I know, just got it
[08:04] <gunndawg> gonna try to reboot and see if it worked
[08:04] <gunndawg> brb
[08:07] <oceanus> could someone invite me at #c channel?
[08:07] <gunndawg> madsailor, IT WORKED!
[08:07] <jokke_> Is there a way to turn off touchpad on your laptop though ubuntu? I tryed this: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SynapticsTouchpad/PreMaverick but cant get it to work, I have HP dv6 3001.. :(
[08:08] <Guest43613> ?
[08:09] <dsevigny> Is there a command that I can run that allows me to append everything from the screen into a file as well as the screen?
[08:10] <PerfM> Everytime I close my eyes
[08:10] <madsailor> gunndawg, nice one...off and running.  Compiz next and some font tweaks and downloads, and you'll barely recognize the place
[08:10] <PerfM> whatcha seee whatchaaa seee?
[08:10] <PerfM> Waddddup opera
[08:10] <gunndawg> I have heard about compiz but not sure what it is
[08:10] <gunndawg> madsailor, could you give me a description or link to compiz ?
[08:11] <oceanus> why i can not join to #c??
[08:11] <oceanus> Cannot join channel (+i) - you must be invited
[08:11] <matelot> can some one help me figure out why I can not access my home network http page ?
[08:11] <matelot> http running: http://paste.pocoo.org/show/328610/
[08:11] <PerfM> I feeel like a supermodel who just skipped a meal
[08:11] <gunndawg> madsailor, btw that fix I applied to get the plymouth theme to show slows down my boot time by about 3 seconds or so. Makes sense because I essentially slowed down the buffer
[08:11] <matelot> port forwarding : http://i.imgur.com/3gAQ6.jpg
[08:11] <PerfM> You say yer a big deal?
[08:11] <PerfM> BIG DEAL
[08:11] <PerfM> Ive been a big deal eevaaa since BIG WHEEELLSS
[08:12] <madsailor> gunndawg, it's a window manager...let's you do cool stuff like make window title bars translucent, or look like a mac..or windoze..or whatever you like.  It's in the ubuntu repo
[08:12] <avenge> rizon.net
[08:12] <edev> Hi, all. I'm on Ubuntu 10.10, trying to get Ruby up to 1.9.2. I can use rubygems to install rvm, rvm to use ruby1.9.2, then reconfigure them, but is there a better way?
[08:12] <gunndawg> madsailor, if I have Ubuntu Tweak do I need Compiz? seems like they do similar things. With Ubuntu Tweak I was able to make bouncy windots, translucent menus, etc
[08:13] <avenge> probably not, stick with what works, edev
[08:13] <Guest43613> 显示中文
[08:13] <avenge> but it might pay off to script it as much as possible
[08:13] <oceanus> join linux
[08:13] <bullgard> !cn | Guest43613
[08:13] <edev> avenge: Okay, thank you!
[08:13] <avenge> ShapeShifter499, you ruined the user count :(
[08:14] <datura_code>  /join #ubuntu-tw
[08:14] <madsailor> gunndawg, they probably are similar...that's the beauty of linux...may options to the same end
[08:14] <madsailor> *many
[08:14] <gunndawg> madsailor can I get Compiz via apt-get or is it the package manager ?
[08:14] <avenge> anyway, I'm outta here. I got 99 problems, but software ain't one.
[08:14] <madsailor> you can do apt-get or use the ubuntu software center under the applications menu
[08:16] <gunndawg> madsailor, appears as though I already have compiz, gives me the option to uninstall or reinstall, lol
[08:16] <mbvpixies78_> what's a good general chat channel on IRC?
[08:17] <bullgard> mbvpixies78_: #ubuntu-offtopic
[08:17] <mbvpixies78_> bullgard, they're silent
[08:17] <bullgard> mbvpixies78_: Bad luck in timing. Try at another time of the day.
[08:17] <bivo> Why is it the only way I can see my USB IDE DVD drive is if I manually open the disc in VLC at /dev/sr0 ?
[08:18] <mbvpixies78_> bullgard, yeah but I work tomorrow
[08:18] <gunndawg> madsailor, I ran sudo compiz and my screen flashed, then came back now bouncy windows doesnt work, hmmm
[08:19] <madsailor> gunndawg, I actually went with emerald, which is a dying manager, but there is an awesome theme I use that is most closely 'OSX Aero'..on linux...I love it talk about a mash-up
[08:19] <gunndawg> madsailor, Ubuntu Tweak includes compiz btw, just found out
[08:20] <gunndawg> madsailor, but some how I broke "wobbly windows"
[08:20] <heniu> test
[08:22] <gunndawg> madsailor, what would running "sudo compiz" have done ?
[08:24] <madsailor> gunndawg, switch your window manager to compiz if it's not already
[08:24] <gunndawg> madsailor, where do I do that?
[08:25] <madsailor> gunndawg, sorry, I meant, that's what it would do
[08:25] <gunndawg> madsailor hmmm well its not acting like its set to compiz
[08:25] <bazhang> madsailor, you dont want to use sudo for that gunndawg
[08:26] <madsailor> bazhang, true...just answering what would happen
[08:26] <gunndawg> madsailor, bazhang how do I set compiz to my window manager because its not acting like it is already
[08:27] <gunndawg> madsailor, bazhang in compiz I have wobbly windows set but they arent wobbly, lol after I ran sudo compiz it quit working
[08:27] <bazhang> madsailor, please dont suggest things if you are not sure about them
[08:28] <madsailor> I didn't suggest it. sorry.
[08:28] <gunndawg> I want my compiz settings to work again :(
[08:29] <gunndawg> I ran sudo compiz and now they quit working
[08:31] <gunndawg> oops, I got them working again with compiz --replace
[08:31] <gunndawg> <--- is happy again, he has wobbly windows
[08:32] <C4Cookies> Is it possible to remove disable ubuntu authenticate?
[08:32] <Guest8593> C4Cookies:  if you log in as root, but don't do that all the time
[08:32] <C4Cookies> It is very annoying it asking 4 my password
[08:33] <gunndawg> C4Cookies it asks for your password for security purposes, consider it a luxary
[08:33] <Guest8593> C4Cookies:  think of it this way:  short annoyances with passwords vs. large annoyances with crashed computers
[08:33] <eXpLoD> is today ubuntu day or what?
[08:33] <gunndawg> eXpLoD every day is a Ubuntu day!
[08:33] <Guest8593> wXpLoD:  why?
[08:34] <eXpLoD> i mean wasn't something special about ubuntu today?
[08:34] <eXpLoD> i read it a week ago on ubuntu.com
[08:34] <Guest8593> gunndawg:  do you ever say "Someone's got a case of the Monday's!"  lol, j/k
[08:34] <bazhang> eXpLoD, #ubuntu-offtopic please
[08:34] <gunndawg> Guest8593, I work for my self so that never applies to me ;)

[08:41] <motz> hi, I'd like to install ubuntu.I donwloaded the image file here: http://www.ubuntu.com/desktop/get-ubuntu/download and I copied on a usb stick. The problem is it doesn0t boot
[08:41] <bazhang> motz, copied how
[08:42] <damo22> motz: you need to install syslinux onto the stick and unpack the iso, configure it to boot
[08:42] <maitrey> dammo22: i cant see it after entering the lspci.
[08:42] <motz> so: sudo dd if=/path/to/downloaded.img of=/dev/diskN
[08:43] <Incarnate> Hello there
[08:43] <bazhang> damo22, motz using unetbootin obviates that
[08:43] <bazhang> motz, yeah, that wont work.
[08:43] <damo22> motz: that wont work its not a cdrom
[08:43] <maitrey> damo22:means it's not recognised? then why does it show the connection strength and why does it attempt to connect?? really confused here!
[08:43] <motz> so how?
[08:43] <bazhang> motz, unetbootin
[08:43] <damo22> maitrey: lsusb
[08:43] <Incarnate> Im trying to Install ubuntu 10.10... But got a little problem.. Stuck! At user setup page.

[08:44] <motz> does unetbootin run on mac osx?
[08:44] <gunndawg> Incarnate, make sure your username doesnt start with a capitilized letter, I know it sounds goofy, buy try it
[08:44] <damo22> motz: this is a linux support channel
[08:45] <jokke_> if i want to install flash 64bit though sudo, what package should i choose?
[08:45] <Incarnate> Hmm.. I will
[08:45] <motz> damo22, ok but how can I prepare a bootable ubuntu usb stick on mac osx?
[08:46] <gunndawg> Incarnate, let me know if that fixes the issue, though I bet it will ;)
[08:46] <Incarnate> that was simple.. thx..
[08:46] <damo22> motz: you will have a lot of trouble trying to boot off a stick on a mac
[08:46] <maitrey> damo22: with lsusb it shows it as : Bus 001 Device 006: ID 0bda:8171 Realtek Semiconductor Corp. RTL8188SU 802.11n WLAN Adapter
[08:46] <maitrey> damo22: what to do now??
[08:46] <motz> damo22, so what do you suggest me? Have I no chance to install ubuntu?
[08:47] <damo22> motz: i installed linux onto a macbook pro
[08:47] <damo22> motz: i used standard iso cdrom
[08:47] <gunndawg> Incarnate, you are welcome
[08:47] <gunndawg> woohoo, my 2nd person helped! :)
[08:47] <rick___> hey anyone here knows how to make thunderbird use pop instead of imap for gmail downloads
[08:48] <motz> damo22, I don't want to install it on a mac. I want to install it on a pc. But the pc has non operative system now and so I have to use mac to prepare the boot usb stick
[08:48] <sssssss_> Hello
[08:48] <damo22> motz: cant you install it off a cd?
[08:48] <sssssss_> If I create an App Indicator through my application and someone drags and drops a file on it from Nautilus How can I know what file was dropped on to the indicator? Is knowing this possible?
[08:48] <motz> At the moment I don't have any cd
[08:48] <rick___> its just downloading everything on my gmail locally
[08:48] <rick___> I don't want that
[08:49] <rick___> anyone?
[08:49] <sssssss_> ???
[08:49] <kieran> ?
[08:49] <kieran> i have a question
[08:49] <damo22> motz: what you are asking is tricky without a linux box to prepare the stick
[08:50] <damo22> motz: but it is possible
[08:50] <sssssss_> If I create an App Indicator through my application and someone drags and drops a file on it from Nautilus How can I know what file was dropped on to the indicator? Is knowing this possible?
[08:51] <sssssss_> ???
[08:51] <damo22> motz: or you can buy a cd for $1
[08:52] <sssssss_> ???
[08:52] <Fudge> any good parted guides anyone knows of to restore a previous partition table of a primary partition?
[08:52] <jokke_> Hi, i'm using ubuntu 10.04 - How can i install flash64bit??

[08:53] <sssssss_> jokke: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AMD64/FirefoxAndPlugins
[08:53] <kieran> anyone?
[08:53] <damo22> Fudge: if you are trying to recover data from a dead disk, i suggest mounting it read only and dd the whole disk to an image somewhere else
[08:54] <Fudge> damo22  I could do that, the drive has my fs on it and had a primary partition of 980gb or so, i was resizing it to utilise some unpartitioned space when X died where gparted was running.
[08:55] <sssssss_> If I create an App Indicator through my application and someone drags and drops a file on it from Nautilus How can I know what file was dropped on to the indicator? Is knowing this possible?
[08:55] <sssssss_> ???
[08:55] <root> ??
[08:55] <damo22> Fudge: ouch
[08:55] <Fudge> yeah, bit sucky
[08:56] <Fudge> all for 2mb /me feels rather stupid now for wantint to tidy it up
[08:56] <damo22> Fudge: O_o

[08:56] <Fudge> :$
[08:56] <sssssss_> ???
[08:57] <motz> I don't understand why a bootable us stick cannot be obtained the same way a bootable cd is obtained
[08:57] <gunndawg> bah, im having a hard time deciding on a login screen background, lol
[08:57] <tiyowan> Fudge: Are you trying to recover the previous partition table?
[08:57] <sssssss_> anyone??
[08:57] <kieran> i'm trying to connect using xtightvncviewer to view a another person's screen however when I connect the screen freezes
[08:57] <Fudge> tiyowan  yes
[08:57] <Fudge> sssssss_  what was the question? surely if someone can help they will, asking again and again wont help
[08:58] <tiyowan> Fudge: Try TestDisk - http://www.sysresccd.org/Main_Page
[08:58] <sssssss_> Fudge: ok
[08:58] <kieran> anyone?
[08:59] <kieran> anyone?
[08:59] <tiyowan> Fudge: "TestDisk - Popular disk recovery software. Recovers lost partitions and repair unbootable systems by repairing boot sectors. It can also be used to recover deleted files from FAT, NTFS and ext2 filesystems. File system recovery is supported for reiserfs, ntfs, fat32, ext2/3 and many others."
[08:59] <Fudge> tiyowan  ive got testdisk but am having a bit of trouble figuring out which drive type i have to tell it. intel pc etc
[08:59] <kieran> ugh
[08:59] <kieran> =(
[08:59] <Fudge> it doesnt help that im a speech user legally blind and is a little bit more of a learning curve

[09:01] <menfou> Hello, I have a problem with VLC on Ubuntu lucid: I reccorded a TV program in ogg theora vorbis, but when I want to watch it later, the video go faster than the sound so I do not understand: How can I repair this video for exemple? http://www.mediafire.com/?mv4jj8cghpt0tpv
[09:01] <tiyowan> Fudge: You want to select Intel PC as the partition table type. I'm assuming you aren't on a Mac.
[09:02] <zoLevDotCom> лц
[09:02] <Fudge> tylergillies  thanks ill look at that shortly, no mate this is just a home built pc with ext3 partition in question
[09:02] <tiyowan> Fudge: Then you select Analyse and wait for it to finish its scan.
[09:02] <tylergillies> Fudge: heh
[09:03] <zoLevDotCom> ы
[09:03] <Fudge> tylergillies  im running currently  gpart search i tink and its taking hours

[09:04] <gsedej> hi! Can someone tell me if it is possible to mount image that is in tar.gz (without extracting it firstly). I used partimage to copy partition
[09:04] <Fudge> ill brb :)
[09:04] <tiyowan> Fudge: That's all right. I'd strongly recommend stopping gparted and going into TestDisk to recover your partition table instead.
[09:05] <jokke__> Hi, is there a way to disable touchpad on ubuntu 10.04 (HP dv6 3001 laptop) - The problem is that there is no fn-button to do it.. on win i have to doubleclik in the corner of the touchpad.. but this does not work in ubuntu.. tryed following some guides and disable all in mouse-options.. with no luck.. Could really use some help! :)
[09:05] <motz> in order to create an ubuntu bootable usb-stick I followed what I read on this page: http://www.docstechnotes.com/2009/05/create-bootable-usb-drive-using-os-x.html. What's wrong in it?
[09:05] <brontoeee> what would be a procedure to wake up (delete some stuff) from a headless server that obviously got disks totally full?
[09:06] <brontoeee> can i boot with something, then ssh in and access local file system like that?
[09:06] <YankDownUnder> brontoeee, Can't you just ssh into the server as it stands?
[09:06] <brontoeee> YankDownUnder, nope
[09:06] <YankDownUnder> brontoeee, Ah. Use a livecd.
[09:06] <madsailor> gsedej, you can open archives with applications->accessories->archive manager
[09:07] <brontoeee> YankDownUnder, actually its weird, since /home is different partition, so it might be some other problem
[09:07] <tiyowan> jokke__: http://www.andrewferrier.com/blog/2010/06/04/disabling-synaptics-touchpad-with-ubuntu-10-04/
[09:07] <YankDownUnder> brontoeee, How are you accessing this box mate?
[09:08] <brontoeee> YankDownUnder, ssh or i walk down the stairs and kick it
[09:08] <erk_> ciao
[09:08] <menfou> Hello, I have a problem with VLC on Ubuntu lucid: I reccorded a TV program in ogg theora vorbis, but when I want to watch it later, the video go faster than the sound so I do not understand: How can I repair this video for exemple? http://www.mediafire.com/?mv4jj8cghpt0tpv
[09:08] <YankDownUnder> brontoeee, Hmmm...kicking it wouldn't really resolve much of anything other than getting out your frustration....ssh is the best option - then "su" or use "sudo" to perform "root" functions
[09:09] <brontoeee> YankDownUnder, right, ill go and reboot the thing few times to see if that gets me ssh acccess
[09:10] <brontoeee> YankDownUnder, it beats me in chess, but i always win in kickboxing
[09:10] <YankDownUnder> brontoeee, Mate - if you're ssh'd into the box, why not try doing something like "sudo apt-get autoremove" to see if that clears the apt cache - frees up some space?
[09:10] <brontoeee> YankDownUnder, obviously if ssh would work
[09:10] <YankDownUnder> brontoeee, Roger
[09:11] <Fudge> tiyowan  thanx mate ive stopped it and will try now
[09:12] <jokke__> tiyowan: thanks.. i'll try that! :)
[09:13] <gunndawg> How can I modify the color of the top and bottom bars on my desktop (bars that hold Applications, Placets, System, etc)

[09:13] <YankDownUnder> gunndawg, Right-click, properties, background
[09:14] <daniele> buongiorno a tutti gli italiani
[09:14] <gunndawg> YankDownUnder, thanks

[09:17] <AbhiJit> daniele, http://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/2010/04/10-things-to-do-after-installing-ubuntu-10-04-lucid/
[09:17] <menfou> Hello, I have a problem with VLC on Ubuntu lucid: I reccorded a TV program in ogg theora vorbis, but when I want to watch it later, the video go faster than the sound so I do not understand: How can I repair this video for exemple? http://www.mediafire.com/?mv4jj8cghpt0tpv

[09:33] <feng> hi
[09:33] <tiyowan> Gnea: ;)
[09:33] <ryan_> Has anyone had any luck with the 10.10 netbook installation?
[09:34] <Gnea> ryan_: just ask your question
[09:34] <Gnea> !anyone
[09:34] <ryan_> It hangs at the setup/try screen
[09:34] <AbhiJit> ryan_, press 'any' key onn keyboard
[09:35]  * AbhiJit looks at Gnea 
[09:35] <BuMpIc> im sry i forgot the name of the backtrack community
[09:35] <BuMpIc> :D
[09:35]  * Gnea looks at AbhiJit 
[09:35] <AbhiJit> BuMpIc, #backtrack-linux
[09:35] <BuMpIc> thankyou:D
[09:35] <BuMpIc> byebye
[09:35] <ryan_> Sorry, When trying to just "try" ubuntu 10.10 netbook on a dell mini it hangs and doesnt do anything
[09:36] <AbhiJit> oh
[09:36] <Gnea> ryan_: have you tried 10.04?
[09:37] <TopCat> not sure what filesystem to chose when formatting my HDD
[09:37] <ryan_> I cannot figure out how to download a earlier release of the netbook live disk. Would a desktop 10.04 work on a netbook?
[09:37] <TopCat> i have 2 new drives
[09:37] <AbhiJit> TopCat, ext4 for karmic onwards
[09:37] <Gnea> ryan_: it's easy - go to the ubuntu.com page, there's a link on the front page
[09:38] <ryan_> Would the desktop live disk work on the netbook though?
[09:38] <AbhiJit> ryan_, it should
[09:38] <TopCat> well this is the deal, i have a drive currently in the box that i need to transfer data to one new drive, then i will install a second and install 10.4
[09:38] <TopCat> so i have 2 new drives, one old drive and a case that can only has bays for 2 drives
[09:38] <TopCat> so i need to transfer data first, then bring in the second new HDD
[09:39] <ryan_> Ok thanks Gnea
[09:39] <TopCat> still ext 4 ?
[09:39] <Gnea> ryan_: not as well as the netbook version, since it has stuff compiled and setup for netbooks that the desktop doesn't
[09:39] <damo22> TopCat: the fs doesnt matter you can mount any fs on any drive
[09:39] <AbhiJit> TopCat, i dont understand anything. what a 'data transfer' operation is to do with 'filysystem'?
[09:39] <gunndawg> Could someone help me install a .theme file? I dragged it into the themes manager but got an error saying it wasnt a valid theme file
[09:40] <damo22> but ext4 is recommended with karmic onwards afaik
[09:40] <Daanmidd> Hello!
[09:40] <TopCat> okay.
[09:40] <brontoeee> whats the 'ls' version to show me filesizes in human readable form? not in blocks
[09:40] <AbhiJit> gunndawg, there are lots of broken theme from gnome loog org. forget about it. try this http://www.bisigi-project.org/?lang=en
[09:40] <Daanmidd> Can somebody help me with a problem?
[09:40] <AbhiJit> Daanmidd, ask
[09:41] <damo22> topcat: unless you plan to dump the data directly at the block level, then youre stuck with the fs it comes with
[09:41] <pradeep> Daanmidd, ask
[09:41] <gunndawg> AbhiJit, I'll have a look, thx
[09:41] <Daanmidd> When I log in to Ubuntu, ubuntu is trying to open 50 nautilus windows
[09:41] <TopCat> i wanted to know if i could run a file server services on 10.04 ?  i have a windows box that i would like to share files with.
[09:41] <Daanmidd> But they don't come up
[09:42] <Gnea> Daanmidd: on just one account or all of them?
[09:42] <Daanmidd> Only one account
[09:42] <Daanmidd> I've deleted .nautilus already
[09:42] <Daanmidd> The settings folder
[09:42] <Daanmidd> And I've resetted ubuntu: http://linuxfud.wordpress.com/2007/02/14/how-to-reset-ubuntugnome-settings-to-defaults-without-re-installing/
[09:42] <Gnea> .nautilus doesn't control whether it starts or not, that's up to gnome
[09:43] <Daanmidd> I've also deleted .gnome
[09:43]  * Gnea notes the date in that URL
[09:43] <daniele> anyone knows some good file servers? videos music...
[09:44] <bazhang> !piracy > daniele
[09:44] <gabrieluk> hi.I don't know if is only me,but i'm having a wierd experience with my mouse.I feels like the mouse is more sensible going horizontal than vertical.is there a setting to calibrate mouse sensitivity?
[09:44] <daniele> ok
[09:44] <bazhang> daniele, wrong network to ask on.
[09:44] <Gnea> !mouse | gabrieluk
[09:44] <Daanmidd> Here you can see what it looks like: http://img207.imageshack.us/img207/4379/schermafdrukkw.png
[09:45] <brontoeee> YankDownUnder, working now after few hard reboots, dunno what was wrong, its not filled at t
[09:45] <brontoeee> all
[09:45] <gabrieluk> ubottu,is not about the buttons.Is about the touchpad,when the arrow moves.I feel that it go faster right/left than up/down
[09:46] <gabrieluk> hahahhahaha
[09:46] <Gnea> Daanmidd: edit your startup applications
[09:46] <pradeep> Daanmidd, what do you use as your defualt windows manager
[09:46] <YankDownUnder> brontoeee, If ssh dies out all the time - as you're kinda tellin - have you checked to see if the ssh daemon is working properly?
[09:46] <pradeep> i think you need to edit your settings
[09:46] <Daanmidd> Gnome 2.32.0
[09:47] <daniele> bazhang tell me where yo go plz
[09:47] <daniele> to go
[09:47] <bazhang> daniele, for what
[09:47] <daniele> for the right network
[09:47] <bazhang> daniele, no idea. dont ask here
[09:47] <gabrieluk> Gnea,why i feel that the mouse goes faster left/right than up/down?
[09:48] <daniele> i know i know
[09:48] <brontoeee> YankDownUnder, nah, it has usualy uptimes without problems in like 30 days, so iam always surpised when one day is not responding, however thats just an old box made out of parts that left over my previous workstation, so a 'server' is a big name for it ...
[09:48] <Gnea> gabrieluk: try a usb mouse
[09:48] <YankDownUnder> brontoeee, Gotcha - have basically the same here - heaps of servers - or "heap of parts acting as a server" :)
[09:49] <gabrieluk> Gnea,ok,i will.at the moment i'm using thr touchpad of my lappy
[09:49] <Gnea> gabrieluk: I remember what you said before.
[09:49] <YankDownUnder> brontoeee, Just as an FYI, mate, I use Webmin to control my headless boxen
[09:49] <daniele>  Error: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) LOL
[09:49] <ikonia> daniele: please stop messing around
[09:49] <ikonia> YankDownUnder: webmin is unsupported
[09:50] <gabrieluk> Gnea,do you?i tough you forgot!lol
[09:50] <brontoeee> brontoeee, whats wrong with ssh (other than forgeting the cli syntax all the time)?
[09:50] <brontoeee> i mean YankDownUnder
[09:50] <YankDownUnder> ikonia, Not the point.
[09:50] <ikonia> yes the point
[09:50] <Gnea> gabrieluk: please don't insult people here, you won't get the help you desire that way.
[09:50] <daniele> ikonia messing around in other words please ... i'm not english
[09:51] <YankDownUnder> brontoeee, I use ssh constantly to perform what's necessary - for local machines or for my customer's machines.
[09:51] <ikonia> daniele: ok, well please stop it
[09:51] <daniele> ah ok sry
[09:51] <Daanmidd> No, it didn't work
[09:52] <Daanmidd> I've disabled some startup applications
[09:52] <moah> Hello #ubuntu, i have one question: when I install a new app, how it is decided if this app will or will not get a menu entry?
[09:52] <ikonia> moah: that decision is built into the package
[09:53] <moah> ikonia: so from my point of view it is pretty random?
[09:53] <red2kic> moah: Some applications are GUI. Some appliations ar for terminal.
[09:53] <dassouki> hi all, how can i force ubuntu on mylaptop to only load to my external screen
[09:53] <brontoeee> q about sbackup log, it says this: WARNING: Unable to query available space on target: Operation not supported
[09:53] <moah> red2kic: i know that, but also terminal applications sometimes get a menu entry.
[09:53] <ikonia> moah: you can use common sense, eg: if it's a non-gui app there isn't going to be an entry as that can't be launched from the menu
[09:53] <brontoeee> do i need to install something on the target server?
[09:54] <moah> ikonia: no, also temrinal apps get a menu entry. (for example GNU Octave).
[09:54] <YankDownUnder> brontoeee, Mate, when you're on that "server", how much space is left on the "/" partition?
[09:54] <brontoeee> YankDownUnder, 115 Gigs
[09:54] <gabrieluk> gabrieluk is not insulting anyone,gabrieluk is very proud of ubuntu and very respectfull with the communitty FYI
[09:54] <gunndawg> ugh, I cant find ONE working theme off gnome-look.org
[09:54] <YankDownUnder> brontoeee, So that's the free space available, eh?
[09:55] <novitololo> I am trying to create files via terminal and put them into the /var/www folder.  If I don't do it with sudo vim whatever.php, it doesn't let me do it. Is there a way I can identify myself as a root, so I don't have to write sudo everytime?
[09:55] <brontoeee> YankDownUnder, yes + 40 gigs left at /home
[09:55] <moah> but ok, when you say that there isnt a rule, this is an answer i can understand, thanks.
[09:55] <red2kic> moah: Yes. And some packages are just back-ends for certain apps, such as plugins. No need for menu. If you know what you're installing, then you're likely to know where it can be found in.
[09:55] <YankDownUnder> brontoeee, Wowsers - so it ain't a space issue - have you thought about modifying the logfile rotation and retention for that box?
[09:56] <Gnea> gabrieluk: please do not PM me again.
[09:56] <Gnea> gabrieluk: it's possible that I didn't understand your humor
[09:56] <brontoeee> YankDownUnder, how do i check that state?
[09:56] <gabrieluk> Gnea,why you so agressive?should come down,have a "lol" is not an insult
[09:57] <ikonia> gabrieluk: the topic of this channel is ubuntu support discussion  only, it's not a joke channel or a social channel, please keep to that topic
[09:57] <YankDownUnder> brontoeee, /etc/logrotate.conf + rsyslog.conf
[09:57] <Gnea> gabrieluk: please do not confuse scrutiny with aggressiveness. if you have an ubuntu-related question, please feel free to continue along that subject line.
[09:58] <brontoeee> YankDownUnder, let me check
[09:58] <gabrieluk> ikonia,sure ,that's what im here for.the "lol" was just a compliment of my sentence
[09:59] <brontoeee> YankDownUnder, logrotate.conf says weekly, how is that?
[09:59] <natrixnatrix89> I cant remove apache2. When i run sudo apt-get remove apache2 it says it is not installed. But it is. How can I remove it?
[09:59] <gunndawg> has anyone gotten themes off gnome-look.org to actually work? Everyone of them gives me an error when trying to install
[09:59] <YankDownUnder> brontoeee, Dunno mate - but you can set it up to daily - do you really use or view any of the logs on that machine?
[10:00] <vooze_> Stupid question: i minimised xchat to system tray, now i cant find it :( - ubuntu 10.04
[10:00] <brontoeee> YankDownUnder, not really
[10:00] <ikonia> gunndawg: yes, they work fine
[10:00] <ikonia> gunndawg: what type of theme are you trying to download
[10:00] <AbhiJit> vooze, click on it once?
[10:00] <YankDownUnder> gunndawg, Nearly every theme I get works, unless it's too old. You must be doing something not very right.
[10:00] <gunndawg> ikonia just window themes
[10:00] <ikonia> gunndawg: can you link to one please.
[10:00] <ikonia> (one that's not working)
[10:00] <gunndawg> YankDownUnder, ikonia, I drag them to the themes manager and I get an error
[10:01] <natrixnatrix89> I cant remove apache2. When i run sudo apt-get remove apache2 it says it is not installed. But it is. How can I remove it?
[10:01] <ikonia> gunndawg: please provide a link to one that is not working
[10:01] <ikonia> natrixnatrix89: what makes you think it's installed ?
[10:01] <vooze_> AbhiJit, click on what? there simply is no tray in the button
[10:01] <vooze_> buttom *
[10:01] <YankDownUnder> gunndawg, Um...mate, just unpack them in your ~/.themes directory
[10:01] <gunndawg> ikonia, ok hang on
[10:01] <AbhiJit> vooze, then may be its not minimized? and its closed?
[10:01] <gunndawg> YankDownUnder where is the themes directory? I'll try that
[10:01] <natrixnatrix89> ikonia: because i see it in task manager. and when i go to localhost I see a page
[10:01] <vooze_> nope, as you an see vooze + vooze_ is here :(
[10:01] <Abhinav1> I hve some drive with HFS+ partition, Now I want to change that in ext3/ntfs without loosing the data, Can I do this, ifyes then how?
[10:02] <YankDownUnder> gunndawg, ~/.themes => if it's not there, create it.
[10:02] <ikonia> natrixnatrix89: ok, open the package manager (synaptic for example) search for apache2
[10:02] <ikonia> YankDownUnder: hold on there
[10:02] <ikonia> gunndawg: link me to one that's not working
[10:02] <gunndawg> YankDownUnder where do I create it?
[10:02] <ikonia> YankDownUnder: he's got a history of downloading the wrong thing
[10:02] <FloodBot3> ikonia: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
[10:02] <AbhiJit> vooze_, kill it from system monitor and then make sure that sit on pane when minimized setting is properly enabled
[10:02] <YankDownUnder> ikonia, Roger.
[10:02] <gunndawg> ikonia, let me try to put one in the themes folder first and if that doesnt work I"ll link one
[10:02] <ikonia> gunndawg: no, give me a link to one that's failing
[10:02] <gunndawg> ikonia, yankdownunder I need to know where the themes folder is
[10:02] <ikonia> gunndawg: give me a link to one that's failing
[10:03] <gunndawg> ikonia, chill out
[10:03] <gabrieluk> lol
[10:03] <YankDownUnder> gunndawg, I told you already. It would be: /home/yournamehere/.themes
[10:03] <ikonia> gunndawg: you wasted a lot of time yesterday with the wrong information, give me the link
[10:03] <ikonia> YankDownUnder: please stop
[10:03] <gunndawg> ikonia, what are you talking about ?
[10:03] <ikonia> YankDownUnder: as I've explained he's got a history of downloading the wrong thing, so dumping that in the themes folder is not a good idea
[10:03] <ikonia> gunndawg: with your gdm questions yesterday, so please link me to a theme that is not working
[10:04] <Gnea> gunndawg: give him the direct url to the theme you're referencing
[10:04] <gunndawg> ikonia, I never asked any gdm questions, and if I did then so be it, its a support channel, chill out
[10:04] <natrixnatrix89> ikonia: oh. apache2 is not installed but apache2-bin and apache2-common are..
[10:04] <Gnea> gunndawg: and don't mess with ikonia :)
[10:04] <bazhang> gunndawg, sure you did. for several hours
[10:04] <ikonia> gunndawg: you asked for gdm themes, and where trying to install plymouth themes, hence why I am asking you to link to a theme that is not working
[10:05] <gunndawg> ikonia, any them on gnome-look.org take ur pick
[10:05] <bazhang> gunndawg, thats false.
[10:05] <ikonia> gunndawg: no, link me to one you are trying to use
[10:05] <Gnea> gunndawg: show us the direct URL for one that actually failed for you
[10:05] <gunndawg> bazhang, based off my experience so far, dragging them into the theme manager has not worked thus far
[10:05] <ryan_> Gnea, Thank you for your help earlier, I have put 10.04 on the laptop instead
[10:05] <ikonia> gunndawg: give us a link to one that is failing
[10:05] <bazhang> gunndawg, thus the need for a link.
[10:05] <gunndawg> http://gnome-look.org/content/show.php/Midnight+%28Basic+GTK-2.0%29?content=128920
[10:05] <gunndawg> how bout that one ?
[10:06] <ikonia> gunndawg: have you tired that one and it's failed ?
[10:06] <Gnea> ryan_: cheers
[10:06] <novitololo> Is it normal that /var/www has just write permission for root?
[10:06] <user_> how to dedicate system memoy to graphic memory
[10:06] <Gnea> novitololo: yes
[10:06] <Gnea> user_: via the bios
[10:06] <user_> cannot
[10:06] <user_> it is locked in bios
[10:07] <user_> acer aspire one
[10:07] <Gnea> user_: can't be done, use the max
[10:07] <ikonia> user_: then we can't help, it's not an ubuntu issue
[10:07] <Abhinav1> anyone can help me with HFS+ type disk, I need to change it into ext3 or NTFS
[10:07] <bazhang> gunndawg, did that fail for you?
[10:07] <novitololo> so everytime I wanna write something in there, I have to identify myself as sudo ...
[10:07] <novitololo> ?
[10:07] <Kersey> ciao ragazzi! ...Sono nuovo di Ubuntu!
[10:07] <gunndawg> bazhang, as I said, every theme so far off that site has,so... yes
[10:07] <user_> is it possible to do that in ubuntu
[10:07] <ikonia> !it | Kersey
[10:07] <AbhiJit> novitololo, right
[10:08] <gabrieluk> #ubuntu-uk
[10:08] <ikonia> gunndawg: ok, that theme file you've just given me under it it says to extract it into /usr/share/themes - did you do that ?
[10:08] <novitololo> mmmm, and if I wanna write files from eclipse and save them to the folder? Should I change the permisions?
[10:08] <gunndawg> nope, I didnt, i dont see where it says to do that
[10:09] <AbhiJit> novitololo, changing permission will create secturity issues. better ask in #ubuntu-server  and consult with someone who had done any such thing for his experience
[10:09] <novitololo> thanks mate
[10:09] <ikonia> gunndawg: when you drag it onto the themes tool, what does it say
[10:09] <gunndawg> let me try it again and I will tell you
[10:10] <berkes> I'm having trouble with my dualscreen and i'd like to find some keywords to start searching with :)
[10:10] <gunndawg> ikonia, There was an error installing the selected file. "index.theme" does not appear to be a valid theme.
[10:10] <AbhiJit> !dualhead | berkes
[10:10] <ikonia> gunndawg: what is the name of the file you are trying to drag ?
[10:10] <berkes> the second screen is all "wobbly" or "wavy. I cannot make a screenshot from it, and vidcapping it does not show the weird effect either.
[10:11] <gunndawg> ikonida Mytema.theme
[10:11] <brontoeee> novitololo, you can chmod the entire folder to www user and add your user to www group, at least thats what i'am reading on the web, still not sure whats the correct approach
[10:11] <berkes> AbhiJit, I wrote parts of that article :)
[10:11] <AbhiJit> :o
[10:11] <AbhiJit> berkes, congratas and thank you !!! :D
[10:11] <novitololo> ok
[10:11] <novitololo> thanks brontoeee
[10:11] <brontoeee> novitololo, let me google a bit
[10:11] <berkes> AbhiJit, my problem is prolly known, but I need keywords to search for :)
[10:12] <vooze> Hi again :P I "lost" this menu from my panel.. is there a way to get it back? http://www.neowin.net/images/uploaded/sound.png
[10:12] <AbhiJit> berkes, no idea
[10:12] <AbhiJit> vooze, http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1595517
[10:13] <ikonia> gunndawg: right - that is not the name of the file that gets downloaded
[10:13] <gunndawg> ikonia well its a diff theme that I got off gnome-look.org just to give you an example of the error, because they all give me the same error
[10:13] <berkes> second screen, be it a Beamer or an LCD gets all "blurry", more correct, there are waves, as if the cable, or connection has interference.
[10:13] <ikonia> gunndawg: where did you get that file as that is not the one downloaded from the link you gave me
[10:14] <ikonia> gunndawg: stop wasting my time, test with the theme example you gave me
[10:14] <ikonia> gunndawg: http://gnome-look.org/content/show.php/Midnight+%28Basic+GTK-2.0%29?content=128920
[10:14] <ikonia> gunndawg: download that and drag to the theme menu
[10:14] <brontoeee> novitololo, http://serverfault.com/questions/124800/how-to-setup-linux-permissions-for-the-www-folder < scroll down to 1st answer, that seems resonable for dev machine i think
[10:14] <Gnea> ikonia: are you hungry?
[10:14] <AbhiJit> Gnea, lol :D
[10:15] <gunndawg> ikonia I just used Graphite GTK-2.0 and got the same error
[10:15] <Gnea> I know I get short and frustrated easily when my stomach is rumbling
[10:15] <abhinav_singh> can we delete the files based on their creation date...i am having a directory inside which i have lot of files...i want to delete all the files which are 7 days old from current date..how to do it
[10:15] <AbhiJit> Gnea, same here!!! me too!!!
[10:15] <ikonia> gunndawg: this is the last time I will tell you - test with the example link you have me,
[10:15] <gunndawg> I did!
[10:15] <novitololo> thanks :)
[10:15] <gunndawg> it has 3 files
[10:15] <ikonia> gunndawg:  you just told me you didn't
[10:15] <Gnea> AbhiJit: in fact, that's what my stomach is doing right now :)
[10:15] <ikonia> gunndawg: it downloads one file, drag that one file to the theme manager
[10:16] <civixier> Hi. I have a wireless microsoft arc mouse and it has pretty slow responsiveness. It takes too long for it to response which results in it moving a bit after I stop the mouse as well. I tried it in a pc with windows on it, and it has better responsiveness there. Is there anything I can do to speed up the responsiveness?
[10:16] <Gnea> gunndawg: don't open the file, just drag it from the download location
[10:16] <AbhiJit> abhinav_singh, http://www.howtogeek.com/howto/ubuntu/delete-files-older-than-x-days-on-linux/
[10:16] <AbhiJit> Gnea, go get some food!
[10:16] <oCean> abhinav_singh: work with something like: find . -mtime +7 -type f -exec ls -al {} \;
[10:17] <Gnea> AbhiJit: I'm about to
[10:17] <AbhiJit> ok
[10:17] <YankDownUnder> civixier, System => Preferences => Mouse
[10:17] <Gnea> mmm burritos
[10:17] <gunndawg> I just tried to drag Midnight GTK-2.0 into themes and got the same error
[10:17] <gunndawg> I dont know what else to tell you guys
[10:17] <gunndawg> :(
[10:17] <ikonia> gunndawg: what is the name of the file
[10:18] <gunndawg> Midnight GTK-2.0
[10:18] <Gnea> gunndawg: can you open a terminal and type ls -l in the downloads folder?
[10:18] <civixier> YankDownUnder > I dont think it is a sensitivity issue, its more a lag =/
[10:18] <ikonia> gunndawg: that is not a file name
[10:18] <ikonia> gunndawg: what is the name of the file it downloaded from the example URL I gave you
[10:19] <gunndawg> ikonia, 128920-2graphite-midnight-cillop-midnite.tar.gz
[10:19] <Gnea> now we're getting somewhere
[10:19] <VP> running Ubuntu 10.10, how to share the internet connection on another computer wirelesslly?
[10:19] <ikonia> gunndawg: now when you drag that into the theme manager, what does it say
[10:19] <Gnea> !ics | vp
[10:20] <gunndawg> ikonia, now it works, though the theme isnt whats display, everything is a pink/salmon color
[10:20] <YankDownUnder> gunndawg, Click "customise" and take it from there.
[10:20] <ikonia> gunndawg: there you go, it's worked
[10:20] <oCean> :)
[10:21] <gunndawg> ikonia, but this isnt the theme that I downloaded, not based off the screenshot, everything is pink, but alright
[10:21] <Gnea> gunndawg: try logging out/logging in
[10:21] <ikonia> gunndawg: I can't help you with the themes's contents, I don't run that website, however we have now proven that the theme works and it is just your user error
[10:22] <Gnea> ikonia: give the guy some slack, he's only been using ubuntu for like 3 days
[10:22] <gunndawg> ikonia, yes it was my user error, I'll admit to that, I am on a SUPPORT channel, sorry
[10:22] <ikonia> gunndawg: no, he said he'd been using it for years
[10:22] <Gnea> ikonia: no, he's used computers for years - there is a difference
[10:22] <gunndawg> I never once said I was using it for years
[10:22] <ikonia> gunndawg: it's not a problem, I'm trying to make the point if you actually listen to what people tell you or read the websites your downloading you'll find things do work
[10:22] <gunndawg> I have never touched ubuntu or linux until 2 days ago
[10:23] <Gnea> ikonia: may I PM you?
[10:23] <ikonia> Gnea: always
[10:23] <Kersey> ciao ragazzi!
[10:23] <ikonia> gunndawg: then you shouldn't have said "14:51 < gunndawg> WormFood the fact that I have used linux for several of years"

[10:38] <YankDownUnder> madsailor, Just a matter of watching the channel logins mate.
[10:38] <oCean> madsailor: ^
[10:38] <venilsurya> So, what's OT about talking about a problem I face as an Ubuntu user?
[10:39] <madsailor> YankDownUnder, oCean, thanks...just curious
[10:40] <greppy> venilsurya: it's out of the scope of this channel to "fix".
[10:40] <oCean> venilsurya: this channel is technical ubuntu support. For support on software (and it's features) better ask in more appropriate channels (there is #openoffice.org, #libreoffice)
[10:41] <shaggy2> I have a problem!!!!! and her name is ....
[10:41] <ikonia> shaggy2: we support ubuntu in here, if you have an ubuntu question please ask
[10:41] <shaggy2> I know it was a joke ikonia
[10:41] <ikonia> shaggy2: ok, this isn't a joke or social channel, it's a support discussion channel for ubuntu, please try to keep to that
[10:42] <exalt> good morning (europeans.. ;)) i have this problem, today was mounting my usb and my terminal told im out of the sudoers file.... the only action i did last few days was add me tot the vbox user group

[10:42] <ikonia> venilsurya: no

[10:42] <Igramul> Hi, how can I check the status of a DVB-S adapter, e.g. if it's tuned to a specific frequency?
[10:43] <ikonia> Igramul: the software tunes it, not the hardware
[10:43] <tallis_> I have a software raid in ubuntu at after an update it doesn't boot any more ... i get to the Busybox screen
[10:43] <tallis_> anybody?
[10:43] <shaggy2> ikonia: it was one line of something that was ment to make people laugh. a bit of lafter is actualy a good thing ya know.
[10:43] <ikonia> shaggy2: not disagreeing, but it's not allowed in this channel
[10:43] <ikonia> shaggy2: it's not a joke channel
[10:43] <Igramul> ikonia, I know - I use tvheadend for three different adapters. I was just curious, if there is a tool that displays the current usage/state of the adapters.
[10:44] <ikonia> Igramul: the software tool your using displays the status as the status is not stored on the card,
[10:44] <oCean> !crosspost > tallis_
[10:44] <Igramul> ikonia, ok thanks

[10:50] <ikonia> thehungus: are you using 64bit ?
[10:50] <thehungus> yes
[10:50] <novitololo> Excuse me guys, when you configure Mysql and apache in ubuntu, it's common to all the users in the system right? you don't have to configure for each user (I mean, the mysql database is accessible for each single user in the system)?
[10:50] <thehungus> have run wine on 64bit sys before, no worries
[10:51] <ikonia> thehungus: there is some info somewhere on wine 32bit compatability with 64bit hosts, there is some bugs, hang on let me see if I can find it
[10:51] <ikonia> thehungus: you may have fallen into one of those bugs

[11:00] <thehungus> GHH: suggest you look at /etc/X11/xorg.conf and perhaps also ask on #linux
[11:00] <thehungus> (if you have not modified this file yourself)
[11:00] <mimetico> no I haven't
[11:00] <mimetico> i have maverick
[11:00] <oCean> mimetico: all I can say that there are numerous bugs filed @launchpad concerning brightness, functionkeys and suspend/wakup. I don't think there is one solution.
[11:01] <oCean> *wakeup
[11:01] <mimetico> i tried numerous solutions, but no one worked for me
[11:02] <thehungus> to clarify, you're using the nvidia binaries from the nvidia website? installed with the appropriate script in a vt (not under X)
[11:02] <mimetico> curiously, after a hiberbtation, the system becomes normal, whithout problems
[11:02] <VCoolio> GHH: backup your xorg.conf, let it be created by "sudo Xorg -configure" and/or "sudo nvidia-xconfig", merge those, try again
[11:02] <oCean> mimetico: in that case, you may have to file your own bug

[11:10] <VCoolio> !fr
[11:10] <x20twelve> not much
[11:11] <x20twelve> just recently upgraded 9.04 to 9.10
[11:11] <metatagg_> x20twelve : enough to point ppl to #ubuntu-fr :)
[11:11] <x20twelve> wonderin if i should upgrade to 10.04.1
[11:11] <VCoolio> x20twelve: that's nice to see how a update works, but yeah, move on or do a fresh install, especially if you have /home on a separate partition
[11:11] <x20twelve> i speak very lil french
[11:11] <Peace-> hi admin here?
[11:12] <Peace-> #ubuntu-ops
[11:12] <x20twelve> hmm...so if i do the upgrade from the update manager, i wonder if it would work, cuz when i burnt it on to cd, my system wouldnt take it
[11:13] <x20twelve> guess i'll have to stick with 9.10 till i upgrade my computer lol
[11:13] <Gnea> Peace-: there are some around, is someone spamming you?
[11:13] <mimetico> there he is
[11:13] <mimetico> http://paste.ubuntu.com/559840/
[11:13] <VCoolio> x20twelve: you should have waited maybe, with LTS versions you can skip the rest, so you could have upgraded directly from 9.04 to 11.04
[11:13] <x20twelve> quick question tho, in 10.10 how is the webcam functionality with IM clients?
[11:14] <Peace-> Gnea: no i am working on #kubuntu channel and there is a guy  that says he can't go into this channel...

[11:33] <oCean> azi`: See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ARM and channel #ubuntu-arm
[11:33] <x20twelve> processor
[11:33] <ct529> x20twelve: meaning?
[11:33] <x20twelve> the skydome : the background yu see when yu initiate the cube
[11:34] <x20twelve> i want the image moving
[11:34] <ct529> x20twelve: oh I see
[11:34] <x20twelve> or i'll just settle with an aquarium inside a transparent cube
[11:34] <x20twelve> when i do the fire on the screen, yu should hear how fast my fan runs
[11:35] <ct529> x20twelve: I imagine. I tend not to use too many effects for that very reason.
[11:36] <x20twelve> tru dat
[11:36] <GHH> VCoolio, fail
[11:36] <x20twelve> ever try out xubuntu?
[11:36] <drthoth> console is my favorite desktop most of the time
[11:36] <drthoth> and im not even elite
[11:37] <x20twelve> i want to be an elite
[11:37] <drthoth> go all hardcore, and run gnustep or just x
[11:37] <drthoth> hah
[11:37] <drthoth> kinda funny
[11:37] <drthoth> windows vista/7 have a desktop clock
[11:37] <drthoth> and that started back on x, lol
[11:38] <drthoth> <3u xclock
[11:39] <x20twelve> what version of ubuntu is chameleon?
[11:39] <Gnea> !karma
[11:39] <Tm_T> x20twelve: there's no such version
[11:40] <drthoth> karma karma karma chameleeeooooooooon
[11:40] <dnivra> x20twelve, chameleon is a boot loader.
[11:40] <drthoth> you come and goooo, you come and gooooo oooo oooo
[11:40] <Gnea> !karmic
[11:40] <x20twelve> ok cool thanx
[11:40] <x20twelve> just googling animated wallpapers etc
[11:40] <drthoth> hello, awhile back I configured my ssh server in a way that stopped the server from creating a new ssh/bash instance for the same user, allowing them to run multiple sessions but under 1 login. i believe it used pam. can anyone help me out?
[11:41] <Gnea> drthoth: I usually do that with screen
[11:41] <shcherbak> x20twelve: kameleon is suse (afaik)
[11:41] <drthoth> yeah but then you gotta move between screens
[11:41] <drthoth> i like having 6 putty's open xD
[11:41] <Gnea> no
[11:41] <x20twelve> is there a way to set up the dock at the bottom of the screen in 9.10?
[11:41] <EvilMachine> hello. :) am i right that there are problems with the sky2 ethernet driver?
[11:42] <bonzai_pete> i'm lost lol
[11:42] <Gnea> drthoth: you have one screen session with multiple shells open within it
[11:42] <drthoth> thats what i want to avoid
[11:42] <drthoth> is multiple shells/ssh
[11:42] <drthoth> like so
[11:42] <drthoth>  1062 mryanbro  20   0 10508 1712  968 S  0.0  0.1   0:00.67 sshd
[11:42] <drthoth>  1063 mryanbro  20   0  8684 5404 1564 S  0.0  0.3   0:00.74 bash
[11:42] <drthoth>  1358 mryanbro  20   0 10508 1720  976 S  0.0  0.1   0:00.64 sshd
[11:42] <drthoth>  1359 mryanbro  20   0  8628 5284 1504 S  0.0  0.3   0:00.49 bash
[11:42] <FloodBot2> drthoth: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
[11:42] <Gnea> that's silly, but okay
[11:42] <drthoth> ouch, for 4 lines
[11:42] <Gnea> drthoth: you'd just have to have one terminal per
[11:42] <Incarnate> Hey ppls
[11:42] <drthoth> yea thats what i want to do, i remember mucking about with pam/login
[11:43] <drthoth> and no matter how many puttys i connected, only 1 ssh/bash showed/ran
[11:43] <Gnea> drthoth: I don't see how that would be of any benefit
[11:43] <Incarnate> Possible to change partition size on ubuntu 10.10 once installed?
[11:43] <drthoth> less processes?
[11:43] <Gnea> drthoth: ...which is why I run screen
[11:43] <drthoth> the processes are still running arent they?
[11:44] <drthoth> just masked under 1 process of screen
[11:44] <Gnea> how would it make any less?
[11:44] <bonzai_pete> gonna look for newbie channel
[11:44] <drthoth> because it forces the logins to use the same process
[11:44] <drthoth> instead of creating a new process per session
[11:44] <Gnea> yes, but you use more processes on the computer you're typing on
[11:44] <Gnea> overall, it's a waste
[11:44] <shcherbak> bonzai_pete: What is wrong?
[11:44] <drthoth> which is why i want to avoid running needless processes
[11:44] <drthoth> the less, the better
[11:44] <Gnea> which is why I use screen :)
[11:45] <drthoth> screen doesnt create less processes
[11:45] <bonzai_pete> xchat noob
[11:45] <Gnea> drthoth: do you have an ubuntu-related question or not?
[11:45] <drthoth> dont give me attitude because i dont like your reply
[11:45] <drthoth> the question is ubuntu related
[11:45]  * Gnea arches a brow
[11:45] <shcherbak> bonzai_pete: We call it padawan, xchat have very good documentaion online.
[11:46] <Incarnate> Is it possible to change partition size on ubuntu 10.10 once installed?
[11:46] <bonzai_pete> shall have to learn  a little more about xchat
[11:46] <shcherbak> Incarnate: not recommanded, you would need to yse LiveCD, and back-up your data.
[11:47] <bonzai_pete> until then bye all
[11:48] <Gnea> drthoth: if you're so sure about your method, then stop asking and test it out yourself using top on the remote computer - make 10 connections and see what uses more memory: 10 different instances or using screen
[11:48] <shcherbak> drthoth: you can use tmux, and avoid disconnectio, play around sshd_config.
[11:48] <shouvik> anyone knows any ruby chat room?
[11:49] <shouvik> ror
[11:49] <Gnea> scheibo: he thinks that tmux and screen somehow uses more resources than connecting using one shell at a time
[11:49] <Incarnate> Hmm.. so best to do would be to remove entire installation or full format after back-up of data.
[11:49] <ikonia> shouvik: this isn't a yellow pages for channels
[11:49] <drthoth> thats not what i think at all
[11:49] <dnivra> shouvik, ask in #freenode
[11:49] <shouvik> thanks for pointing me that ikonia
[11:49] <Gnea> shouvik: #ruby-on-rails perhaps?
[11:49] <drthoth> but I appreciate you changing the context of my question because I disagree with yoru approach
[11:49] <madsailor> Incarnate,  as shcherbak says not recommended, but  using gparted can be done.  Look here https://help.ubuntu.com/community/HowtoPartition
[11:49] <shouvik> thank u Gnea, i appreciate your help
[11:50] <Gnea> drthoth: feel free to drop your own attitude at anytime.
[11:50] <dnivra> shouvik, #ruby too i think. do ask in #freenode in future okay?
[11:50] <shouvik> okay sure
[11:50] <drthoth> you inferred i had an unrelated question and as such should be quiet until I do
[11:50] <shcherbak> Incarnate: Or use lvm, or have separate "/data" partition for reinstalations, distros upgrades, etc.
[11:50] <Gnea> drthoth: and you are now offtopic, please feel free to discuss your results or don't bother, thanks.
[11:50] <oCean> shouvik: dnivra there is no need to ask in #freenode. Type /list in your irc client, and find all freenode hosted channel. Then take your pick :)
[11:50] <greenIT> hi, i have a problem... i installed the displaymanager slim, cause i wanted to see the difference to gdm2, but when i say that the system shall use slim, it won't boot anymore...
[11:51] <Incarnate> lvm?
[11:51] <drthoth> Gnea, you brought it off topic by continuing to address the unrelated issue where I'm trying to correct your assumption
[11:51] <drthoth> I am not looking to run multiple processes
[11:51] <greenIT> Incarnate, did u write it to me?
[11:51] <shcherbak> !lvm
[11:51] <dnivra> oCean, all I meant was #freenode would be yellow pages. :) sure that does work too.
[11:51] <drthoth> I am looking to find how to reduce the processes, which I believe is through PAM. So I am asking for support regarding that
[11:51] <greenIT> ah, ok, not for me^^
[11:51] <samski> anyone able to give some support with tesdisk and recovering an ubuntu partition?
[11:52] <drthoth> if you are unable to help me in that regard, please don't insist on offering alternative methods that are contrary to my needs
[11:52] <ikonia> drthoth: what's the question ?
[11:52] <Incarnate> ok.. thx.. =)
[11:52] <Incarnate> See ya..
[11:53] <Gnea> drthoth: I'll help you as I see fit, if my help isn't appreciated, I'm sure someone else will be happy to try to help.
[11:53] <greenIT> i need help with the displaymanager slim, it won't be executed at startup
[11:53] <samski> anyone able to give some support with tesdisk and recovering a lost ubuntu partition
[11:53] <ikonia> samski: how did it get lost
[11:53] <samski> a windows recover partition messed with things
[11:53] <ikonia> samski: can you please define "messed with things"
[11:53] <samski> so i have no grub either
[11:54] <samski> ill send and image
[11:54] <greenIT> !sgd
[11:54] <samski> hang on
[11:54] <EvilMachine> Hmm... Am I right that there are problems with the sky2 ethernet driver?
[11:54] <ikonia> samski: no, just explain what's happened
[11:54] <samski> ok
[11:54] <ikonia> samski: don't want an image, just explain the current situation and what happened to get it there
[11:54] <greenIT> !slim
[11:54] <ikonia> greenIT: what are you looking for ?
[11:54] <samski> ok i dual boot windows 7 and linux
[11:54] <EvilMachine> Installed Ubuntu 10.10, and the network won't work.
[11:54] <samski> i have some old recovery partitions from when i had vista
[11:54] <samski> i accidentally booted into one of those
[11:54] <greenIT> ikonia: i am looking for a way to get slim running
[11:55] <samski> i hit exit and it rebooted. only to find a grub rescue prompt
[11:55] <shcherbak> !grub | samski
[11:55] <ikonia> greenIT: slim running ?
[11:55] <samski> im now booted in a liveusb and have ran testdisk
[11:55] <greenIT> ikonia: and i looked if ubottu knows super grub disk^^
[11:55] <ikonia> samski: is the ubuntu partition still there ?
[11:55] <drthoth> scedit prob changed the mbr
[11:55] <samski> yes
[11:55] <samski> well
[11:55] <ikonia> samski: great, I'll give you a url
[11:55] <mespejel> hi
[11:55] <greenIT> ikonia: do you know the displaymanager slim?
[11:55] <ikonia> !grub2 > samski
[11:55] <ikonia> greenIT: sorry, I don't
[11:55] <samski> the partition shows as free
[11:55] <ikonia> samski: check the URL ubottu just sent you, it will walk you through re-applying grub
[11:56] <samski> but i its still there if i look in testdisk
[11:56] <mespejel> what is the difference between a long term support and the latest version?
[11:56] <mespejel> which one better?
[11:56] <mespejel> huh?
[11:56] <greenIT> ikonia: ok, then i have to look if there is a #slim channel^^
[11:56] <mespejel> i dont know if install 10.04 or 10.10
[11:56] <dnivra> !lts | meshuggah
[11:56] <ikonia> mespejel: one is supported for a longer time, one is more bleading edge
[11:56] <shcherbak> !lts
[11:56] <samski> ikona, sorry i didnt mean its still there. the partition shows as free space, but its still there if i look at testdisk
[11:56] <mespejel> what you mean by supported? 10.10 is not supported????
[11:56] <mespejel> hmmm
[11:56] <ikonia> samski: what do you mean "it's still there"
[11:57] <Gnea> mespejel: 10.10 is supported NOW, but when 11.04 comes out, it will not be.
[11:57] <shcherbak> mespejel: ukhm
[11:57] <samski> thats why i want to send you an image
[11:57] <samski> may i send you an image
[11:57] <mespejel> oOooh
[11:57] <mespejel> okkk
[11:57] <evilvish> Gnea: no..
[11:57] <mespejel> i see
[11:57] <ikonia> samski: try to mount the partition from the livecd/liveusb
[11:57] <Gnea> !screenshot | samski
[11:57] <samski> it showing as freespace
[11:57] <mespejel> 11.04 is not Long term??
[11:57] <Gnea> evilvish: pardon?
[11:57] <mespejel> is short term?
[11:57] <ikonia> samski: mount the partiton
[11:57] <Gnea> !LTS | mespejel
[11:57] <evilvish> Gnea: mespejel: LTS is longer support than other releases
[11:57] <samski> ikona i cant
[11:57] <ikonia> samski: why ? what happens
[11:57] <evilvish> Gnea: iirc, it is 1.5 yrs
[11:58] <evilvish> lts is 3

[11:58] <shouvik> hi
[11:58] <mespejel> ok ok so 11.04 is going to be long term support ?
[11:58] <samski> this image shows clearly where ubuntu should be
[11:58] <gobbe> mespejel: no it will not be
[11:58] <dnivra> mespejel, no. 10.04 was last long term. next would be 12.04 i guess.
[11:58] <shouvik> does anyone has ubuntu10.10?
[11:58] <mespejel> oh i see
[11:58] <ikonia> samski: I told you 3 times not to send the image, answer the question
[11:58] <jacekowski> hello
[11:58] <ikonia> samski: can you mount it
[11:58] <mespejel> aja
[11:58] <bullgard> Audacious 2.4.0 shows a red square in its 4th line. What does this symbol mean?
[11:58] <shcherbak> shouvik: most
[11:58] <mespejel> ahaha
[11:58] <mespejel> ok
[11:58] <mespejel> so basically
[11:58] <samski> ikona its showing as freew space so how can i mount it?
[11:58] <jacekowski> have anybody tried to install ubuntu on already encrypted disk with truecrypt ( using whole disk encryption )
[11:59] <mespejel> 10.04 is for lazy pepole who dont like to update and prefer longer support huh
[11:59] <shouvik> better than 10.04? as in stable?
[11:59] <mespejel> nah is not that hard to backup and install again
[11:59] <mespejel> i prefer the newest most modern release;)
[11:59] <mespejel> :D
[11:59] <mespejel> lol
[11:59] <Gnea> mespejel: please do not confuse stability with laziness.
[11:59] <dnivra> mespejel, no. 10.04 is for company/university environments i'd say.
[11:59] <ikonia> samski: if it is actually free space, then your partition and data is gone
[11:59] <mespejel> wooot
[11:59] <ikonia> samski: if it's not free space, mount it and confirm the data is ok
[11:59] <mespejel> so 10.10 is not stable?
[11:59] <mespejel> less stable??
[11:59] <Gnea> mespejel: if I was your boss, and you ran the most modern release on a production machine, you'd be in the unemployment line really fast.
[12:00] <mespejel> i thought support and stability different things hmmm
[12:00] <samski> i need to recover the parittion
[12:00] <samski> thats my query
[12:00] <dnivra> mespejel, the only unstable version is 11.04 :)
[12:00] <shouvik> i dont know, just curious, i need to know before i upgrade :)
[12:00] <shcherbak> mespejel: on the cutting edge!
[12:00] <ikonia> samski: it's gone
[12:00] <Gnea> mespejel: yes, 10.10 is less stable, but not entire unstable
[12:00] <gobbe> samski: recover from your backups
[12:00] <samski> :S
[12:00] <Gnea> !recover | samski
[12:00] <samski> ahh that bot is annoying lol
[12:00] <shouvik> i m glad i did not upgrade :D
[12:00] <mespejel> hey guys do you know if i can knstall ubuntu
[12:00] <mespejel> with kde
[12:00] <mespejel> to my ipad?
[12:01] <dnivra> does any one know a tool to defragment ntfs partitions using ubuntu?
[12:01] <Gnea> samski: deal with it.
[12:01] <gobbe> mespejel: no
[12:01] <ikonia> dnivra: use the windows tools for the windows file systems
[12:01] <shcherbak> Gnea: samski already asked foe assistance with testdisk
[12:01] <Gnea> mespejel: nope
[12:01] <samski> thanks for the help everyone. im going to try somewhere else
[12:01] <gobbe> mespejel: ipad doesn't run on intel processor
[12:01] <dnivra> ikonia, i do not run windows so that's why i wanted to know.
[12:01] <mespejel> oh i see i see
[12:01] <Gnea> shcherbak: indeed, and at least one of those URLs helps describe how to do it.
[12:01] <mespejel> rumors say that the new ipad 2 will run intel
[12:01] <mespejel> lets wait and see
[12:02] <ikonia> mespejel: ok, but in the mean time this is nothing to do with ubuntu, so lets not discuss it please.
[12:02] <Gnea> mespejel: ubuntuforums.org might have something on the subject
[12:03] <mespejel> hey guys do you know about a kde and gnome competition called E17
[12:03] <mespejel> anyone try yet?
[12:03] <ikonia> mespejel: it's very old
[12:03] <Gnea> mespejel: yup, works great
[12:04] <mespejel> no its new
[12:04] <mespejel> very new
[12:04] <Gnea> mespejel: no, heh, it's old, been in development for years
[12:04] <ikonia> mespejel: no, it's very old
[12:04] <YankDownUnder> Enlightenment was around more than 10 years ago.
[12:04] <gobbe> mespejel: no it is not, been in development for several years
[12:04] <ikonia> mespejel: you may want to try ##linux for general linux chat
[12:04] <Gnea> mespejel: I met the lead developer in person back in the 90's
[12:04] <mespejel> wow
[12:04] <mespejel> nice
[12:04] <mespejel> so they have stable version or not?
[12:05] <ikonia> mespejel: you may want to try ##linux for general linux chat
[12:05] <mespejel> i will try
[12:05] <Gnea> mespejel: yes, e16, it's in the repository
[12:05] <Gnea> !info e16
[12:05] <Gnea> mespejel: but you have to be careful not to let it integrate with gnome or kde
[12:06] <VCoolio> mespejel: core libs of e17 have just been released, build svn 56361 or the tarballs
[12:07] <greenIT> i have a problem with the simple login manager (slim). i used this guide (ok, not really much to do) http://computergyan.wordpress.com/2010/11/21/use-simple-login-manager-slim-instead-of-gdm/ , but slim doesn't work for me... i did nothing else than follow this guide.. can anyone help me get slim working?
[12:07] <ezra-s> hello, is there a wubi installer for 10.10. The wubi installer I get installs 10.04
[12:07] <ikonia> !info slim
[12:08] <dnivra> ezra-s, you need to get a 10.10 iso burnt onto a cd/usb.
[12:08] <ikonia> greenIT: can you define "doesn't work"
[12:08] <Gnea> greenIT: better off finding a guide on ubuntuforums.org rather than using an unofficial guide
[12:08] <dnivra> ezra-s, if you use 10.04 disc, it'll install 10.04.
[12:08] <oCean> ezra-s: http://releases.ubuntu.com/maverick/wubi.exe
[12:08] <mespejel> i had try many now.. ubuntu, kubuntu, sabayon, fedora, pclinux
[12:09] <_raven_> how to configure dns with ifconfig?
[12:09] <mespejel> ubuntu my favorite
[12:09] <dnivra> oCean, but that would still need to iso. right?
[12:09] <greenIT> ikonia: when i boot my computer, i pressed <esc> to see when it hangs, and it is always at the same point: "Starting x11 login manager slim..."
[12:09] <_raven_> how to configure dns with ifconfig?
[12:09] <ezra-s> dnivra , oCean thanks for the answers
[12:09] <_raven_> how to cange keyboard layout in command line?
[12:09] <nimrod10> _raven_, you configure it in resolv.conf not with ifconfig
[12:09] <VCoolio> mespejel: there's bodhi linux too, = ubuntu + e17, quite new
[12:10] <oCean> dnivra: wubi can be installed as any windows application
[12:10] <oCean> !wubi > dnivra
[12:10] <ikonia> _raven_: you don't
[12:10] <_raven_> nimrod10, but there was any command to do this
[12:10] <ikonia> greenIT: look in the X.org log, see if anything is a give away
[12:10] <nimrod10> _raven_,  use vim/nano to edit  /etc/resolv.conf
[12:10] <dnivra> oCean, and you can install ubuntu after installing wubi? without the iso?
[12:11] <nimrod10> _raven_,  check out  the ubuntu manual ,    ubuntu-manual.org
[12:11] <VCoolio> _raven_: setxkbmap for temporary keyboard layout switch
[12:12] <oCean> dnivra: yes, as explained in the guide
[12:12] <mespejel> VCoolio: thanks i will read about it, its based on ubuntu 10.04?
[12:13] <VCoolio> mespejel: lts version, yes
[12:13] <dnivra> oCean, yeah just saw it-it downloads the packages. that is as good as downloading the iso I'd say. still that's a pretty cool thing.
[12:13] <EvilMachine> q

[12:24] <greenIT> i have a problem with the simple login manager (SLiM), can anyone help me? as it seems not only i have a problem with it, so here is a thread, where the problem is described better (not from me) : http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1606731&highlight=slim
[12:27] <mario12> hi here
[12:29] <davejb> anyone help please "Unable to find a medium containing a live filesystem" on fresh 10.10 install with cd?
[12:30] <psycho_oreos> is this before you install or after you install?
[12:31] <davejb> psycho_oreos: before
[12:31] <davejb> psycho_oreos: i have new machine, new parts and never had any OS on before
[12:31] <psycho_oreos> davejb, aha as I thought have you checked the burned disc for defects?
[12:31] <davejb> psycho_oreos: i cut the iso image on my laptop to standard 700MB sony cd
[12:31] <psycho_oreos> davejb, and that's not a good idea
[12:32] <davejb> psycho_oreos: no, but I am transfering it onto a pen drive this time to see if its a write probelm on the cd?
[12:32] <davejb> psycho_oreos: or do you think the download could be corrupt?
[12:32] <davejb> psycho_oreos: the cd boots ok on my latop into the trial version
[12:33] <psycho_oreos> davejb, good idea, best not to cut the image up unless you know what you are doing. Also yes I would also check to see if the download is corrupt. There might be a slight chance but then again you said you cut the image up which can complicate the issue
[12:33] <Avi__> I am installing ubuntu server after activating raid during setup. I have to configure iSCSI volumes. After I select Log into iSCSI targets, I need to enter the "iSCSI target portal address". After entering the ip, I get the following error: "No iSCSI targets discovered".
[12:33] <Avi__> Please help.
[12:33] <davejb> psycho_oreos: im trying it again now from the usb pen
[12:34] <psycho_oreos> davejb, and yes I would also tend to recommend putting it onto pendrive as the writing is more stable. Aboveall the speeds whilst using pendrive would be faster than reading stuff from optical drive
[12:34] <nimrod10> Avi__, try  asking in #ubuntu-server
[12:34] <nimrod10> Avi__, they might know
[12:34] <davejb> psycho_oreos: im trying the trial version from the pen drive and its working
[12:34] <Avi__> ok thanks
[12:34] <davejb> psycho_oreos: this machine rocks
[12:34] <davejb> psycho_oreos: 10 seconds to start in trial mode!
[12:35] <psycho_oreos> davejb, sony?
[12:35] <davejb> psycho_oreos: core i7 with x58 asus board
[12:35] <davejb> psycho_oreos: hand made
[12:35] <davejb> psycho_oreos: could imagine my disappointment when i inserted the cd.  the cd was sony
[12:35] <psycho_oreos> davejb, and why trial mode? that sounds quite weird.. unless you meant trial mode as in live mode
[12:36] <psycho_oreos> davejb, heh that might be the source of the issue
[12:36] <davejb> psycho_oreos: the pen has option to start in trial mode rather than install
[12:37] <davejb> any advice for partioning a X25-M 80GB SSD disk for ubuntu 10.10?
[12:37] <psycho_oreos> davejb, I believe trial is definitely live mode :) and that isn't pen drive specific. A burned DVD disc can still boot into live mode
[12:37] <psycho_oreos> err burned ubuntu DVD disc
[12:37] <charliemac> How can I activate laptop speakers?
[12:38] <Gnea> charliemac: they should be on already
[12:38] <davejb> psycho_oreos: any advice for paritioning 80GB SSD drive?
[12:38] <charliemac> Gnea: agreed.
[12:38] <Gnea> davejb: don't put any swap on it
[12:38] <davejb> psycho_oreos: also, should I tick "Install this third-party software" on the install menu?
[12:38] <davejb> Gnea: any reason?
[12:38] <Gnea> charliemac: that aside, have you tried alsamixer?
[12:38] <Gnea> davejb: kills the drive faster if you use it
[12:38] <vak> I try to create a user allowed to use "sudo": sudo adduser testuser admin ==> "adduser: The user `testuser' does not exist". Why?!..
[12:39] <psycho_oreos> davejb, 256MB for /boot, 50GB for /home and rest for / but that also depends on how much RAM you have
[12:39] <davejb> Gnea: will it effect performance... I don't have any other drives in the machine?
[12:39] <davejb> psycho_oreos: i have 6GB DDR3 2000
[12:39] <charliemac> Gnea: what's alsamixer?
[12:39] <psycho_oreos> it affects depending on how much RAM you have and what sort of applications you intend to run. Well with 6GB that's plenty :)
[12:40] <Gnea> davejb: as I said, it will decrease the overall life of the drive
[12:40] <Gnea> charliemac: it's a command-line based program to adjust volume levels
[12:40] <davejb> ok, so no swap space for ssh?
[12:40] <davejb> *ssd
[12:40] <psycho_oreos> no its not a good idea and plus you have plenty of RAM so that's ok to go without swap
[12:41] <Gnea> that's my general rule of thumb, just attach a regular hdd and use double the amount of ram for swap on that
[12:41] <greenIT> ikonia, are you here?
[12:41] <davejb> psycho_oreos: ok.  so 256 for /boot for the kernal images and then...
[12:41] <davejb> psycho_oreos: 50mb for /home?
[12:41] <Gnea> davejb: how much ram do you have?
[12:41] <davejb> Gnea: 6gb
[12:41] <psycho_oreos> davejb, no 50GB for /home
[12:41] <davejb> psycho_oreos: sorry, thats what i meant to write
[12:42] <davejb> psycho_oreos: what will the rest go to?
[12:42] <psycho_oreos> this will give you plenty of personal space and more than enough for one ubuntu setup on that machine
[12:42] <Gnea> davejb: ah okay, you should be fine without any swap then if you don't have a regular hdd to put swap onto.. just don't expect to hibernate
[12:42] <davejb> psycho_oreos: i have a problem cos my device doesnt show up in the device list :(
[12:43] <davejb> psycho_oreos: i guess i need to drop in to the bios for this
[12:43] <psycho_oreos> davejb, that could be because the controller is not supported or a specific mode, could be AHCI but that shouldn't be the case because AHCI works on my ancient xubuntu setup
[12:44] <davejb> psycho_oreos: the drives aren't showing in the bios
[12:44] <davejb> sata 1 Not Detected
[12:44] <davejb> sata 2 through 6 are same
[12:44] <greenIT> finally i know the problem with my login manager: it doesn't recognize my screen (Fatal server error: no screens found). but how can i fix this issue?
[12:44] <psycho_oreos> davejb, that's unusual, the device might not be powered or connected probably
[12:44] <numberto> I am on my laptop with ubuntu 10.10.   At work right now I just connected to internet through our proxy. The internet is working fine but there is a game which I try to connect to, it does not connect. I tried to ping google and it said "unknown host". What is the problem
[12:45] <psycho_oreos> numberto, DNS servers not specified
[12:45] <davejb> it showed up in the screen but when i enter bios nothing
[12:45] <BuMpIc> hi can you help me, why i can't go to #backtrack-linux?
[12:46] <davejb> psycho_oreos: it has sata config saying "configure sata as [IDE,
[12:46] <numberto> psycho_oreos: I put 8.8.8.8
[12:46] <davejb> psycho_oreos: it has sata config saying "configure sata as [IDE, RAID or AHCI]
[12:46] <psycho_oreos> davejb, *shrugs* probably AHCI
[12:47] <psycho_oreos> numberto, where?
[12:47] <psycho_oreos> BuMpIc, check your status screen
[12:47] <BuMpIc> where?:D (im newbie)
[12:47] <psycho_oreos> BuMpIc, ask in #freenode
[12:47] <BuMpIc> ok
[12:47] <davejb> Gnea: have any idea on "sata config saying "configure sata as [IDE, RAID or AHCI]" which one to go for, for X25-M SSD"?
[12:48] <eXpLoD> Let's say I'm playing a game,and then a friend messages me on MSN.How do I switch the window with the game to the window with MSN?alt+tab wont work
[12:50] <vooze> Hi, if i removed the topline of a program (you know, where you see files, settings help etc." how do i get it back ? :(
[12:51] <imi> I can't download packages files
[12:51] <LjL> vooze: in KDE, Ctrl+M
[12:51] <LjL> vooze: no idea in GNOME, but maybe it's the same... worth trying i guess
[12:52] <imi> I can't download packages files
[12:52] <LjL> imi: what error?
[12:52] <madsailor> eXpLoD, alt tab should work.  For this and loads of other keyboard shortcuts check https://help.ubuntu.com/community/KeyboardShortcuts
[12:52] <imi> Hiba http://hu.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ lucid/main rpm 4.7.2-1lbuild1 unsuccesfull to connect
[12:52] <eXpLoD> well alt+tab didnt worked at all
[12:53] <LjL> imi: hu.archive.ubuntu.com is down for me. try switching to another mirror. do you know how to edit /etc/apt/sources.list?
[12:53] <imi> mcedit
[12:53] <imi> what mirror should I add?
[12:53] <vooze> LjL, nope :(
[12:53] <LjL> imi: any will do. i use se.archive.ubuntu.com, but just archive.ubuntu.com should work
[12:54] <vooze> what is the "menu/line" called? is easyer to google then
[12:54] <imi> ok. thanks
[12:54] <LjL> vooze: menubar
[12:54] <Daghdha> Is there software like trueimage for Ubuntu where i can make an image and later restore that?
[12:55] <vooze> LjL, CTRL + F9 worked :P
[12:56] <Daghdha> maybe alink to the 'ubuntu make an easy backup boot DVD/USB'?
[12:56] <imi> LjL: thanks, it worked.
[13:02]  * Daghdha shrugs.. yet again i shall just hope Ubuntu doesn't fail and not make any backup of my system.
[13:02] <Diverdude> which IRC clients do you guys use? I use Xchat now, but i would like to use a client where i can define a server to connect to at startup, to identify me at startup and to automatically join a lit of channels at startup. Any suggestions for a nice client that can do that?
[13:02] <charliemac> Diverdude: i like pidgin
[13:02] <Daghdha> It's realy bad ubuntu makes it so easy to install by everyone but doesn't have an easy to use backup system like e.g. win7 has.
[13:03] <Diverdude> charliemac, pidgin can do all the things i just said?
[13:03]  * Daghdha crosses fingers and waits. Tata!
[13:03] <charliemac> Diverdude: nevermind, let me know what you find! :|
[13:03] <charliemac> sorry
[13:03] <donSchoe> also looking for a good irc client
[13:04] <Newa> Diverdude: using Xchat. It does connect to servers and channels automatically at startup.
[13:05] <Gnea> !backup
[13:05] <Gnea> !sbackup
[13:05] <Diverdude> Newa, also it can identify me ?
[13:06] <Newa> Diverdude: there's a nickserv password in the network settings to do automatic identifying
[13:06] <HackeMate> hello
[13:07] <davejb> which irc channel should i ask about BIOS settings for SATA SSD drive?
[13:07] <HackeMate> i have iptables installed but when i try restart it,i get this error sudo /etc/init.d/iptables command not found
[13:07] <HackeMate> davejb: since it is an explicit configuration of a motherboard i could try in #hardware
[13:07] <davejb> ok thanks
[13:07] <Gnea> HackeMate: why did you think /etc/init.d/iptables existed in the first place?
[13:08] <Newa> Diverdude: in the network settings, check "connect automatically at startup" to connect to the network. Autojoin channels are added as favourite channels in Xchat
[13:08] <HackeMate> Gnea: my common sense fails much times
[13:08] <HackeMate> whats the way to restart iptables then?
[13:09] <thalll> Hi, i having a problem, im trying to install winxp as a guest os at my ubuntu server 10.10, and i got so far that it says "domain installation still in progress….", i can connect to it via ssh at the br0 192.168.0.120, but im trying connect via vnc but it wont work, my connection get closed, what have i forgot?
[13:09] <Gnea> HackeMate: I usually get the firewall rules set, then save them using iptables-save, then use a post-up command for networking to call iptables-restore
[13:09] <HackeMate> ok
[13:09] <HackeMate> thanks
[13:09] <GHH> Still i am fail fixing my nvidia problem
[13:09] <Gnea> !iptables | HackeMate
[13:10] <Gnea> HackeMate: of course, there are other methods
[13:10] <bonzai_pete> xchat noob here, hello the room
[13:10] <Gnea> bonzai_pete: welcome to irc, where we don't have rooms, but channels
[13:10] <bonzai_pete> could someone tell me how to change my nick please
[13:10] <Gnea> bonzai_pete: /nick somethingnew
[13:10] <bonzai_pete> big thanks
[13:13] <davejb> psycho_oreos: i know this is a little off-topic but should my X25-M SSD drive be on the SATA III (6gb/s) port or SATA 2 (3gbb/s) port?
[13:14] <psycho_oreos> davejb, best to check the specs as per documented for the hardware
[13:14] <davejb> psycho_oreos: its a sata II drive, I think this must be it

[13:15] <LjL> novitololo: it's owned by the user root, and the group root

[13:26] <lieuwe> judgepg: i can hook it up to the mobo directly tho...

[13:30] <datta> i am trying to put the grub menu to select Vista as my default OS whenever it boots up
[13:30] <novato_br> !webcam
[13:30] <judgepg> induz: apt-get install compiz compizconfig-settings-manager
[13:30] <datta> in the previous versions i could just edit sudo gedit /boot/grub/menu.lst but now it doesnt work
[13:30] <datta> now does anyone know what i have to do in Ubuntu 10.04?
[13:31] <judgepg> datta: nano /boot/grub/grub.cfg
[13:32] <datta> judgepg: this looks more confusing than before
[13:32] <judgepg> datta: legacy GRUB uses menu.lst - current uses grub.cfg
[13:32] <judgepg> datta: What's so confusing.  Scroll to the bottom to see the boot options
[13:32] <superxgl> hi all , i use " insmod agpgart" and " insmod intel_agp" ,then " lsmod | grep agpgart"  , i can see the module agpgart
[13:32] <induz> judgepg, thanks i was using this command;sudo add-apt-repository ppa:compiz/ppa && sudo apt-get update
[13:32] <induz> sudo apt-get upgrade
[13:33] <datta> judgepg: do you know what i should do to select the 4th OS on the list?
[13:33] <superxgl> but after i reboot, " lsmod | grep agpgart" has nothing...
[13:33] <superxgl> so i can not start x window
[13:33] <induz> judgepg, how do i know its installed??
[13:33] <Oer> datta maybe this is any help >> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto/ChangeDefaultOS
[13:33] <superxgl> anyone there has any idea how to solve this problem?
[13:33] <judgepg> datta: Sorry, what are you trying to accomplish?
[13:34] <dondon_> judgepg: do you accept bribes?
[13:34] <datta> judgepg: never mind Oer helped me with the guide
[13:34] <judgepg> induz: Try to configure it - launch it with: ccsm
[13:34] <judgepg> datta: Cool
[13:36] <judgepg> dondon_: lol, what?
[13:36] <dondon_> judgepg: do you know anything about problems with snd modules not loading?
[13:36] <dondon_> http://www.alsa-project.org/db/?f=af47f4c3ea0a4ef36fb3b1551da380a9854f94f3
[13:37] <judgepg> dondon_: Sorry, I don't know.
[13:37] <Spodey> Is it USB sound?
[13:37] <dondon_> no
[13:37] <datta> 0er: its not word to word in the guide and the text i find. I hope this is the line that you have to edit: set default="0" if [ ${prev_saved_entry} ]; then
[13:37] <dondon_> its pci
[13:38] <Spodey> Does it load manually?
[13:38] <dondon_> if you click on that link it shows it sees the hardware, which is on the list of supported cards but wont load
[13:38] <dondon_> no it hangs
[13:39] <dondon_> sudo modprobe snd-cmipci hangs
[13:39] <Spodey> Have you tried installing the backport sound drivers?
[13:40] <datta> does anyone know what i should edit in nano /boot/grb/grub.cfg
[13:40] <datta> which line perhaps so that i load a different OS in every boot other than Ubuntu?
[13:40] <gobbe> !grub | datta
[13:40] <dondon_> no
[13:41] <cor_r> is there something like daemon tools for ubuntu? and how do I play divx online?
[13:41] <novitololo> Hi there: I've modified permissions for /var/www, and I have the following now: ''drwxrwxr-x  2 root web   4096 2011-01-29 11:27 www''. I'm logged in a user who belongs to the 'web' group, but when I try to write a file into the www folder it doesn't let me do it. Any thoughts?
[13:41] <Spodey> datta : there should be "default" setting with a number?
[13:41] <gobbe> cor_r: if you mean daemon tools for mounting iso, you can do it without any software
[13:41] <datta> Spodey: theres a couple, is it the first one?
[13:41] <cor_r> gobbe: I can? how so?
[13:42] <Spodey> More than one? Sure one isn't remarked?
[13:42] <gobbe> cor_r: mount -o loop something.iso /path/To/mount
[13:42] <dondon_> Spodey: where would i obtain backported drivers? alsa?
[13:42] <datta> Spodey: I will then change the first one, hope that works
[13:42] <gobbe> novitololo: what does id <user> say?
[13:42] <novitololo> root
[13:43] <gobbe> novitololo: only?
[13:43] <cor_r> gobbe: I c, thank you very much
[13:43] <Spodey> dondon_: There's a WIKI on that topic - I'll have a quick google. IIRC you need the backports repos enabled, but ideally, you want to only install the alsa modules and nothing else,.
[13:43] <gobbe> novitololo: group changes wont be affective until you relogin
[13:43] <novitololo> user --> root, group --> web
[13:43] <novitololo> mmm
[13:43] <novitololo> I did relogin
[13:44] <datta> Spodey: any idea on how to save also? the terminal just kills me with its codes
[13:44] <novitololo> well, I closed the terminal, and opened again
[13:44] <gobbe> novitololo: and what does touch /var/www/something say?
[13:44] <cor_r> Andhow do I play/stream divx videos ? I tried with tote and vlc -> mozilla plugin, mozplugger but it wont play
[13:44] <novitololo> what do u mean?
[13:44] <novitololo> permissions?
[13:44] <mneptok> novitololo: where did the "web" grouo come from? usuallt the httpd processes on Ubuntu run as www-data
[13:44] <novitololo> I created the web group
[13:44] <Spodey> dondon_: try installing linux-backports-modules-alsa-maverick-generic
[13:44] <gobbe> novitololo:run "touch /var/www/something" and say what happens
[13:44] <Spodey> datta: Are you in nano?
[13:45] <novitololo> ok
[13:45] <datta> Spodey: yeah
[13:45] <novitololo> touch: cannot touch `/var/www/hola': Permission denied
[13:45] <vooze> I'm currently using ubuntu 10.04 installed with Wubi from windows 7.. is that a bad idea.. in the long run?? or should it be fine?
[13:45] <Spodey> Just CTRL+X to quit and yes to save
[13:45] <mneptok> novitololo: use the "groups" command to ensure the users you *think* are in the "web" group are actually members
[13:46] <gobbe> novitololo: run "ls -ltrah /var | grep www" and "groups" and paste those to pastebin
[13:46] <novitololo> they are..
[13:46] <esing> Hi
[13:46] <novitololo> ok
[13:46] <dondon_> Spodey: what after that?
[13:46] <cor_r> vooze: why should there be any?
[13:46] <bullgard> Whats the use of /var/log/gmd:0.log?
[13:46] <cor_r> vooze: look at the known bugs, with wubi, mightbe the only problem
[13:46] <datta> Spodey: any idea why it might say "permission denied"?
[13:46] <Spodey> datta: You didn't use Sudo
[13:46] <Spodey> dondon_: Reboot?
[13:47] <esing> I wonder how can I install another Linux Distrubution beside my current Linux Distrubution? ***
[13:47] <qwasic> Hey everyone am running backtrack 4 R1 and recently i updated my metaspolit framework but now am surprised msfweb does not start at all. When enter msfweb in the Konsole it does nothing. Any Idea whats up?
[13:47] <datta> Spodey: thanks for the all the help
[13:47] <esing> hi Spodey
[13:47] <Spodey> datta: NP. Hope it works.
[13:47] <Spodey> Hi esing
[13:47] <novitololo> gobbe: http://pastebin.com/DQTfNtbr
[13:47] <esing> I wonder how can I install another Linux Distrubution beside my current Linux Distrubution? *** Spodey
[13:48] <Spodey> On the same HD?
[13:48] <esing> Yes
[13:48] <cor_r> Andhow do I play/stream divx videos ? I tried with tote and vlc -> mozilla plugin, mozplugger but it wont play  and how do I clean up the apt-get chache of downloaded files?
[13:49] <Spodey> esing: Depending on the distro - the installer should help take care of the partitioning, and usually the grub setup too. Worst case scenario - you'll have to manually configure grub
[13:49] <mneptok> novitololo: log out and back in
[13:49] <davejb> psycho_oreos: sorry to be a hassle. what size should i use again for /boot ?
[13:49] <gobbe> novitololo: as you can see, your group change is not working, upper line shows that your user is not currently in web group, please do relogin
[13:49] <Spodey> esing: Fairly sure Ubuntu-based distributions play nicely.
[13:49] <davejb> psycho_oreos: i have my ubuntu seeing the drive this time
[13:49] <esing> Spodey Ergo I just burn the Ubuntu9.10.iso on a CD and boot from it ??
[13:49] <mneptok> novitololo: your user is part of the "web" group, but your current session is unaware of the change.
[13:49] <brontoeee> cor_r, define divx video, is that mp4 or what, are you streaming on the internal network or how?
[13:49] <Spodey> esing: Yeah - or stick it on a USB stick
[13:49] <novitololo> gobbe: you are right, and I'm sorry. I thought closing the terminal was like logging out, it doesn't seem so.
[13:49] <psycho_oreos> davejb, 256MB
[13:49] <davejb> psycho_oreos: (i had the drive plugged into the SATA III controller instead of the SATA II
[13:49] <Spodey> esing: What are you running now?
[13:50] <esing> Spodey I am running currently Lubuntu 10.10
[13:50] <le0-> how do you auto start programs at boot
[13:50] <CQ> hello, how can I listen to shoutcast streams after selecting them with firefox? audio aorks (tested with amarok), gecko-mediaplayer isntalled, but no sound when selecting a stream...
[13:50] <mneptok> novitololo: terminals attach to your current session, managed by GDM
[13:50] <Spodey> esing: Yeah, once your running the 9.10 installer (although why you would want to run an odler version...) it'll ask if you want to run them side by side
[13:50] <novitololo> ok thanks mneptok
[13:50] <novitololo> brb
[13:51] <cor_r> brontoeee: avi and mkv , tried streamin internal and online both dont work
[13:51] <davejb> psycho_oreos: should I use Primary or Logical?
[13:51] <esing> Spodey Perfect then I will try this now.  ..... I want to run an older Version because a driver of my PCMCIA III (old card) doesnt work with 10.10 yet
[13:51] <davejb> psycho_oreos: Location for the new partion [Beginning or End]
[13:51] <psycho_oreos> for that part primary, for the rest, best to be logical
[13:51] <esing> Spodey Thnx bey
[13:51] <Spodey> esing : Good luck!
[13:52] <davejb> psycho_oreos: so i setup boot first as primary?
[13:52] <davejb> psycho_oreos: or setup /home first?
[13:52] <brontoeee> cor_r, and you are using vlc? well, good luck with that
[13:52] <psycho_oreos> davejb, I think its a good idea for you to stick with the standard guided install and edit out the swap partition, saves you lots of questioning :) or at least me
[13:52] <Sonderblade> anyone know what the font is on this image and how you can install it? http://img.skitch.com/20080410-bb7w15jn3m8d2qkum5wdgnrj3b.png&path=
[13:53] <shomon> hi, how do I get my apache set up on dyndns? I've done all the steps but nothing is coming through...
[13:53] <davejb> psycho_oreos:  there doesn't appear to be an option for this
[13:53] <novitololo> gobbe: thanks mate :). Also, what were you saying about www-data?
[13:53] <cor_r> brontoeee: I tried vlc and totem, also wiki said vlc would be the easiest to use... what else to use then?
[13:53] <gobbe> novitololo: nothing :)
[13:53] <davejb> psycho_oreos: i'll throw the question out to the whole channel
[13:53] <psycho_oreos> davejb, I think its before you choose the manual partitioning. iirc you get like 4 options
[13:53] <brontoeee> cor_r, and videos have to be embeded into some browser or not?
[13:53] <gobbe> novitololo: someone else told that its www-data
[13:53] <novitololo> what do u mean www-data?
[13:53] <novitololo> what is this "-data"
[13:54] <mneptok> novitololo: what httpd are you using?
[13:54] <novitololo> apache
[13:54] <mneptok> novitololo: ps aux | grep apache
[13:54] <davejb> psycho_oreos: 1 is type [primary | logical] . 2 is size in Mb. 3 is location [beginning or end]. 4 ext4 journaling file system or changable and 5 is mount point
[13:54] <cor_r> brontoeee: I want to watchem, its not that I stream them myself, and yes they are embedded
[13:54] <mneptok> novitololo: note the user/group that Apache runs as
[13:55] <dondon_> Spodey: still hangs when trying to manually start
[13:55] <davejb> psycho_oreos: normally, i'd go with defaults but its an X25-M SSD drive
[13:55] <novitololo> wow
[13:55] <novitololo> wtf is that
[13:55] <novitololo> ._.
[13:55] <brontoeee> cor_r, can you figure out the url to the exact video file?
[13:55] <dondon_> i think sound working in linux is a myth
[13:55] <mneptok> novitololo: www-data is a group created when you install an httpd. the httpd runs as this user.
[13:55] <Spodey> dondon_: Does the whole machine hang and not respond?
[13:55] <dondon_> the terminal just sits there
[13:56] <psycho_oreos> davejb, yeah but there's an option with defaults plus editing, so I'd go with that, that should give you a much easier setup and all you have to do is edit the swap out and maybe expand / (rootfs)
[13:56] <novitololo> but if I wanna modify the var/www, it's correct to do that?
[13:56] <dondon_> i can ctrl c out of it
[13:56] <cor_r> brontoeee: yes, but it wont play in any player, and trying to play it in browser doesnt work as well, doesnt even show the play menue...
[13:56] <novitololo> right?, creating a group that has permissions to do so
[13:56] <Spodey> dondon_: Did you check dmesg to see what was going on?
[13:56] <dondon_> Spodey: how do i do that?
[13:56] <davejb> psycho_oreos: the only option on 10.10 install is "erase and use the entire disk" or manual config
[13:56] <mneptok> novitololo: sure, but i would use the existing group. the way you have things now, your webroot wil have to be world-readable in order for Apache to serve the pages
[13:56] <brontoeee> cor_r, mplayer http://pathtovideo.avi says what?
[13:56] <apocalyptiq> hi, i have some problem with wifi on ubuntu, a few days ago it stopped working
[13:57] <apocalyptiq> here is my ifconfig:
[13:57] <shomon> I'm trying to set up an ip address on my static host (vodafone) so as to serve pages to the outside world with dyndns. I-ve heard I had to add "listen" with my external ip... but this doesn-t seem to work... anyone know how to fix this?
[13:57] <apocalyptiq> about wlan:
[13:57] <Spodey> dondon_: Just go to the terminal (after you ctrl+c perhaps) and type dmesg
[13:57] <apocalyptiq> wlan0     Link encap:Ethernet  HWaddr 00:18:de:9e:51:a8
[13:57] <apocalyptiq>           UP BROADCAST MULTICAST  MTU:1500  Metric:1
[13:57] <apocalyptiq>           RX packets:0 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0
[13:57] <apocalyptiq>           TX packets:0 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0

[13:57] <apocalyptiq>           RX bytes:0 (0.0 B)  TX bytes:0 (0.0 B)
[13:57] <FloodBot2> apocalyptiq: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
[13:57] <psycho_oreos> davejb, weird, I guess they've simplfiied that now
[13:57] <novitololo> then what would you do? put my user to the www-data group?
[13:57] <psycho_oreos> s/simplfiied/simplified/
[13:57] <novitololo> I don't see how would you solve that. If I want my user to be able to write files to /var/www
[13:58] <dondon_> Spodey: i guess i lied its not letting me now
[13:58] <mneptok> novitololo: i would add anyone that needs to edit and change web content to a special group ("web" will work). then chown and chmod tyhe webroot to web:www-data 644
[13:58] <brontoeee> novitololo, you may want to : a . chown /var/www to www-data user , b. add your user to www-data group
[13:58] <Spodey> dondon_: Can you open another terminal? Or ctrl+z ?
[13:59] <brontoeee> novitololo, if you need exact command lines, let me know
[13:59] <mneptok> novitololo: the httpd should not have to write out to files, so read should be enough
[13:59] <novitololo> you guys are great, love learning all this
[13:59] <mneptok> novitololo: de nada
[13:59] <lobedfin> @novitololo im late to the party, what were you guys talking about
[14:00] <brontoeee> mneptok, how come if php runs as www-data user as well?
[14:00] <novitololo> I'm gonna google a little bit, and be back
[14:00] <mneptok> brontoeee: because the PHP scripts are invoked by the httpd, who is ww-data
[14:00] <brontoeee> mneptok, yes and they sometimes need to write as well, right?
[14:00] <dondon_> Spodey: [    4.817981] snd_seq_device: Unknown symbol snd_info_register (err 0) [    4.818071] snd_seq_device: Unknown symbol snd_info_create_module_entry (err 0) [    4.818169] snd_seq_device: Unknown symbol snd_info_free_entry (err 0) [    4.818264] snd_seq_device: Unknown symbol snd_seq_root (err 0) [    4.818376] snd_seq_device: Unknown symbol snd_iprintf (err 0) [    4.818522] snd_seq_device: Unknown symbol snd_device_new (err 0
[14:01] <lobedfin> forever alone
[14:01] <mneptok> brontoeee: to files in the web directory? i certainly hope not.
[14:01] <Spodey> dondon_: Looks like we have a good clue to start googling :)
[14:01] <dondon_> Spodey: thats all i see that looks related
[14:01] <niles> I cant find the php.ini on my iphone, I am sure I installed it but its not there, I tryed "find / php.ini | grep php.ini" any ideas
[14:01] <mneptok> niles: we don;t do iPhone support here
[14:01] <cor_r> brontoeee: never min , I just figured it myself ^^ , thank you very much though
[14:01] <novitololo> mneptok: gobbe: I have to go to eat, I will be right back. Thanks a lot
[14:01] <brontoeee> mneptok, cough, what? where else would they write?
[14:02] <niles> ok, sorry
[14:02] <Oer> niles, are you running ubuntu on your iphone ?
[14:02] <niles> no
[14:02] <niles> ios
[14:02] <niles> lol
[14:02] <lobedfin> hi, can you please respond if you're seeing me
[14:02] <brontoeee> cor_r, what was it?
[14:02] <niles> lobedfin: we see you
[14:02] <niles> superhero: we see you
[14:02] <brontoeee> lobedfin, i wonder why you didnt say a word today
[14:02] <mneptok> brontoeee: you have a PHP app that creates files in the Unix filesystem in the publicly accessible web directories? really?
[14:03] <lobedfin> @brontoeee ??? first time ive been on irc
[14:03] <niles> well thats real safe
[14:03] <Spodey> dondon_: What kernel version are you running?
[14:03] <cor_r> brontoeee: mplayer and totem download the file before I can play , didnt realize that. and vlc asked me to repair file, I just had to decline the dialogue there to watch^^.... typicall stupidity by me^^
[14:03] <lobedfin> how does irc work?
[14:04] <brontoeee> mneptok, we are talking about a development server here, right? my web apps that need to write stuff have specific permissions for specific folders usually
[14:04] <lobedfin> this is all confusing
[14:04] <dondon_> Spodey: 2.6.35-25-generic
[14:04] <cor_r> still need to figure how to play embedded files though^^
[14:04] <lobedfin> its fast though
[14:04] <qwasic> am running backtrack 4 R1 and recently i updated my metaspolit framework but now am surprised msfweb does not start at all. When enter msfweb in the Konsole it does nothing. Could you please tell me how i can repair the installation?
[14:04] <amalgama> hi...do you know a good guide to create terminal applications (for lack of better words) for ubuntu?? eg how to graphically separate the terminal in parts etc..
[14:04] <lobedfin> wow, you guys soudn like pros
[14:04] <Oer> !backtrack | qwasic
[14:04] <mneptok> brontoeee: your web apps that need to write stuff should be storing their variable data in a database, not flat files.
[14:05] <brontoeee> mneptok, every cms webapp behaves like that, unless you are talking about something i dont understand :)
[14:05] <Spodey> dondon_: Nothing is coming up in my searches - those messages might be unrelated.
[14:05] <habeous> amalgama: what do you want these applications to do?
[14:05] <brontoeee> mneptok, config files, themes, images, ect, wordpress is a good example of that
[14:05] <katselphrime> good evening guys
[14:05] <mneptok> brontoeee: most CMSes need to write out one file. an XML for RSS and such. everything else is in the database.
[14:06] <brontoeee> mneptok, wordpress stores images in database? hopefully not
[14:06] <mneptok> brontoeee: WP needing to *write* to theme files is not something i have seen
[14:06] <brontoeee> mneptok, wp can install theme itself
[14:06] <brontoeee> mneptok, and plugins
[14:06] <habeous> katselphrime: riiiight, i just dragged myself out of bed and had breakfast.
[14:06] <tefx> hey anyoen  notcied empthay dosent seem to want o sign in on msn accounts ??
[14:07] <amalgama> habeous: it is just a way for me to learn things.. for start i would like to make something like a graphical shortcut for the various commands which are used more frequently
[14:07] <apocalyptiq> anybody have some idea why WIFI on Ubuntu (Lenovo R60) could suddelny stop to working?
[14:07] <damian> hi
[14:07] <lobedfin> hello
[14:07] <apocalyptiq> it was working ok since about year
[14:07] <brontoeee> mneptok, well, not my wordpress, since i cant be bothered with persmissions, i'am talking about correctly installed wordpress :)
[14:08] <habeous> create a launcher on your desktop and enter in the command. use gksu instead of sudo
[14:08] <apocalyptiq> and a few days ago suddenly stopped... wifi LED isn't on
[14:08] <lobedfin> dunno lol
[14:08] <apocalyptiq> when I run "ifconfig wlan0 up", wifi LED is on
[14:08] <apocalyptiq> but wifi still isn't working
[14:09] <apocalyptiq> "ifconfig" returns that there is wlan0 connection
[14:09] <apocalyptiq> lspci also returns, that tere is a wifi card
[14:09] <brontoeee> mneptok, wp also has a css editor, which obviously need permissions to rewrite a css file...., so point made.
[14:09] <habeous> is there a physical switch on the computer, apocalyptiq?
[14:10] <apocalyptiq> yes, but here, on winXP, wifi is working
[14:10] <apocalyptiq> that switch is on
[14:10] <habeous> just checking, i do that all the time
[14:10] <apocalyptiq> so on Ubuntu it isn't working, on Windows XP - is working
[14:10] <habeous> do you have a broadcom chipset?
[14:10] <apocalyptiq> hm, i don't know
[14:11] <shomon> hiya, how do I install mcrypt on php in ubuntu?
[14:11] <lgn12> Broadcom chips and linux are not a good combo
[14:11] <habeous> what model?
[14:11] <habeous> if it's a dell inspiron, it does.
[14:11] <apocalyptiq> it is Lenovo R60
[14:11] <niles> my broadco chips work like doritos
[14:11] <niles> *broadcom
[14:11] <apocalyptiq> but wifi was working till a few days ago
[14:12] <habeous> oh.
[14:12] <apocalyptiq> i have this laptop about 2 years
[14:12] <apocalyptiq> and on ubuntu wifi was working well
[14:12] <apocalyptiq> but 2 days ago, suddenly it stopped to working
[14:12] <lgn12> You could reinstall
[14:12] <niles> click system -> restricted drivers
[14:12] <habeous> did you do any upgrades?
[14:12] <lgn12> Though if you don't have separate home reinstall would be bad
[14:12] <apocalyptiq> yes, i have 10.04 ubuntu upgraded from 9.xx
[14:13] <lgn12> You could get 10.10
[14:13] <habeous> there's the kicker
[14:13] <apocalyptiq> i was thinking about trying some other linux distro than Ubuntu
[14:13] <habeous> i think you need a driver, do what niles said
[14:13] <apocalyptiq> do you know any? my aim of linux is to programming, in ruby mainly
[14:13] <lgn12> There are lots of distress
[14:14] <lgn12> ^distros
[14:14] <habeous> gentoo compiles from source.
[14:14] <apocalyptiq> arch linux for example? :-)
[14:14] <habeous> i've heard bad things about arch...
[14:14] <habeous> (i tried to set up a vm with it, and failed miserably)
[14:14] <lgn12> Ubuntu, arch, fedora, opensuse, it goes on and on
[14:14] <niles> linux mint, debian
[14:15] <Pp|quish> hi all, i need help. I have installed wubuntu and i set its large to 20gb, but now i find out that iam in need of more. Is there a way how to make it larger?
[14:15] <lgn12> Mandrivia
[14:15] <habeous> puppy
[14:15] <dondon_> gentoo is a nightmare with x :P
[14:15] <habeous> hannah montana lol
[14:15] <lgn12> what's wubuntu?
[14:15] <apocalyptiq> so what is better in Ubuntu than in other distros? :-)
[14:15] <dondon_> with no x its pretty sweet tho
[14:15] <lgn12> Wubi?
[14:16] <Pp|quish> wubuntu=ubuntu installed in windows like application
[14:16] <lgn12> So Wubi
[14:16] <Pp|quish> ys
[14:16] <habeous> eeek wubi
[14:16] <lgn12> Idk how you add more
[14:16] <lgn12> If it were a real install id say resize the partition
[14:17] <habeous> it's a virtual hard disk, so I don't quite know how you'd add more....
[14:17] <niles> its a .vdi file, right
[14:17] <habeous> backup your ubuntu stuff before you start poking
[14:17] <lgn12> You can copy ur files and make a new one
[14:17] <lgn12> Or do an actual install!
[14:18] <lgn12> That's what I did when I got tired of Wubi during the 7.10 days
[14:18] <habeous> that's my advice.... my wubi install reduced my computer to a paperweight because of an update
[14:18] <Pp|quish> is there an easy way how to backup all my settings in ubuntu and applications and files and so on?
[14:18] <lgn12> Idk
[14:18] <apocalyptiq> hm, most, if not all, settings, are in your home directory
[14:19] <habeous> external hard drive.
[14:19] <bazhang> https://wiki.ubuntu.com/WubiGuide#head-c1b3095de0e43733f9336427bb90d7ef322de99c Pp|quish
[14:19] <apocalyptiq> .firefox, .thunderbird etc
[14:19] <_raven_> how is the mount smbfs tag to enter the username?
[14:19] <lgn12> So backup /home/username
[14:19] <brontoeee> Pp|quish, there is simple backup suite in repos ...., lack some proper docs, but with some guess work it may do it
[14:19] <habeous> deja dup
[14:19] <Pp|quish> ok thanks all
[14:19] <habeous> ubuntu one
[14:19] <bazhang> Pp|quish, check the link I just sent you
[14:19] <lgn12> Ubuntu one is a great way to backup
[14:19] <Pp|quish> checking right now :)
[14:20] <habeous> i love it
[14:20] <mun> hi
[14:20] <mun> it seems that i'm missing the hiddev kernel driver, does anyone know where i can install it
[14:20] <habeous> hey mun
[14:20] <habeous> did you recompile?
[14:21] <GeekMan> is it possible to compensate your drivers on a linux machine with windows drivers (and what would this be called so i can google it)
[14:21] <habeous> oh, that driver wrapper
[14:21] <nilsma_> ubuntu 10.04, added launcher to panel, i want that application to laucn maximized, what do i append in the command of that launcher in order to make, say chromium, launch maximized?
[14:21] <habeous> linux driver wrapper?
[14:21] <bazhang> GeekMan, ndiswrapper but its a last resort, and not much used now
[14:21] <kosnick1> hello, i just found out that my pc is sending (more than) 50 KiB/s somewhre, is there any way to check where?
[14:21] <bazhang> GeekMan, whats the card you need a driver for
[14:21] <mun> habeous, recompile? hmm don't think so.
[14:22] <habeous> okay, then you definately didn't.... lol
[14:22] <apocalyptiq> what is difference between Ubuntu and OpenSuse?
[14:22] <GeekMan> its on a laptop for my sound card
[14:22] <mun> habeous, should i?
[14:22] <habeous> NO.
[14:22] <habeous> nonono
[14:22] <bazhang> apocalyptiq, chat in #ubuntu-offtopic as that is outside this channels scope
[14:22] <nilsma_> ubuntu 10.04, added launcher to panel, i want that application to laucn maximized, what do i append in the command of that launcher in order to make, say chromium, launch maximized?
[14:23] <habeous> it's big and compilcated and really hard
[14:23] <GeekMan> i run a 5.1 sound system on the machine but it only plays the 4
[14:23] <bazhang> GeekMan, you need a driver for which device. please be specific
[14:23] <mun> habeous, ok. so is the hiddev driver an external one?
[14:24] <habeous> mun, i'm googling now
[14:24] <habeous> win! http://www.wetlogic.net/hiddev/
[14:24] <kosnick1> hello , my pc is sending (more than) 50 KiB/s somewhere,is there any way to see where ? any way to stop it?
[14:25] <GeekMan> alsa doesnt recognize that my sound card plays out to 5 speakers
[14:25] <GeekMan> h/o
[14:25] <wwwyzzerdd> my power manager has stopped detecting power state. when unplugging i have to go to system > preferences > power management to detect plugged/unplugged. what's going on?
[14:25] <mun> habeous, so it shouldn't come as part of the default set of drivers?
[14:25] <habeous> don't think so
[14:25] <GeekMan> ... i need find a way to map alsa to my woofe
[14:25] <GeekMan> r
[14:25] <bazhang> GeekMan, you have pavucontrol and padevchooser installed?
[14:25] <ershad> Hello, I'm trying to share internet from my pc (from pp0) to another (via eth0). I'm now following some steps I saw in forum, and among these is a command 'service iptables save' , but it doesn't  work here(10.10). please help
[14:25] <mun> i'll give it a try
[14:25] <mun> thanks
[14:25] <habeous> hang on
[14:26] <GeekMan> no
[14:26] <GeekMan> idk
[14:26] <bazhang> !ics | ershad please have a read
[14:26] <nilsma_> ubuntu 10.04, added launcher to panel, i want that application to laucn maximized, what do i append in the command of that launcher in order to make, say chromium, launch maximized?
[14:26] <GeekMan> what do they do
[14:26] <bazhang> GeekMan, then check the package manager and install them
[14:26] <GeekMan> k
[14:26] <davejb> can anyone explain difference between primary and logical partition? and should / be mounted to the primary partition?
[14:26] <habeous> primary is traditional
[14:27] <mun> habeous, do you know how i can check the kernel version?  uname -a gives me 2.6.35-22-generic so is my kernel 2.6.35-22?
[14:27] <erUSUL> davejb: a logical partition only can be cretaed inside a extended partition
[14:27] <habeous> logial partitions allow you to get around the 4 partition limit
[14:27] <iamrks> kosnick1, wireshark or netstat maybe
[14:27] <habeous> mun, that is your kernel version
[14:27] <erUSUL> mun: it is; 2.6.35 abi version 22
[14:27] <mun> i see
[14:28] <kosnick1> iamrks : have checked wireshark but it gives me only a connection to another pc which i use for remote connection to first one
[14:28] <habeous> davejb: it doesn't matter. it all works the same.
[14:28] <davejb> erUSUL: i have a 80GB SSD. I'm told use 50GB for /home 256MB for /boot and rest for what /  ?
[14:28] <ershad> bazhang: Thanks
[14:28] <mongy> nilsma_, you could use ccsm to make it do what you want.
[14:28] <erUSUL> habeous: in a msdos partition table you can only have four primary partitions one of them can be an extended partition instead and contain up to 64 logical ones
[14:29] <habeous> ersul: isn't that what I said? Or did i just babble?
[14:29] <erUSUL> davejb: any spaecial reason to want a separated boot partition?
[14:29] <davejb> using the 10.10 install how should i partition my 80GB SSD drive (assuming i want no swap and only keep around 3 or 4 kernal images)?
[14:29] <GeekMan> ok do i need to do somthing like restart or tell the computer to use pulse now
[14:29] <lgn12> What's the difference between MSDos partition table and GUiD partition table
[14:29] <davejb> erUSUL: I assumed it would be more effecient?
[14:29] <erUSUL> habeous: was not reading what you said. is repetition that bad?
[14:30] <bazhang> GeekMan, put them in the panel and configure pulseaudio with them
[14:30] <habeous> ersul: no, i just have'nt finished my tea yet, i'm know to babble in the morning
[14:30] <erUSUL> davejb: on a desktop machine i do not see the point just do a ~10 GiB root / and the rest for home
[14:30] <erUSUL> imho
[14:30] <bazhang> habeous, tab complete please   eru<tab>
[14:30] <habeous> okay
[14:30] <nilsma_> mongy, i just want to add something to "/usr/bin/chromium-browser" to make it start maximized ... like, "/usr/bin/chromium-browser --maximized" or somethinbg
[14:30] <davejb> erUSUL: what goes into the root?
[14:31] <davejb> erUSUL: everybody seems to come up with different figures
[14:31] <erUSUL> davejb: everything except users files if home is separated
[14:31] <mongy> nilsma_, does it not remember itself?
[14:31] <lgn12> davejb: You want a separate /home if you née to reinstall
[14:31] <davejb> erUSUL: im likely to be installed mostly web development apps and editors etc, so how big should be enough for root ?
[14:31] <mongy> nilsma_, personally I would just use ccsm and add a rule for it in place windows plugin, set to maximise
[14:31] <erUSUL> davejb: well becouse it can depend on how much software you install or if for example you use databases or webservers that hold data in /var/
[14:32] <nilsma_> mongy, dunno, i guess it remembers to always start not-maximized :s
[14:32] <novitololo> mneptok: I'm back.  I don't understand this operation that you told me: ''novitololo: i would add anyone that needs to edit and change web content to a special group ("web" will work). then chown and chmod tyhe webroot to web:www-data 644''
[14:32] <davejb> erUSUL: so will /var count towards the root stuff
[14:32] <nilsma_> mongy, oki, thanks for the tip, i will look into the ccsm option :)
[14:32] <mongy> nilsma_, I have a few progs set there to open at specific points on screen, and centered
[14:32] <gebbione> hello folks ... i have a kernel problem with a full description on the ubuntu forum - http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=10408674#post10408674 - please take a look and reply or PM me here if you can help
[14:32] <habeous> davejb: i'd make the swap, then split the rest between the home and the root.
[14:32] <erUSUL> davejb: yes; unless you use a separate /var/ partition
[14:33] <davejb> im told dont use swap for SSD
[14:33] <davejb> on an SSD is their a benefit to keep the /boot separate to /
[14:33] <brontoeee> davejb, how much space will you dedicate?
[14:33] <dtcrshr> how do i change kde login screen?
[14:33] <bazhang> dtcrshr, ask in #kubuntu ?
[14:34] <dtcrshr> just done that
[14:34] <davejb> brontoeee: im not sure. i was considering have 256mb for /boot and not sure how much for /  and the rest /home
[14:34] <davejb> brontoeee: suggestions welcome for web-development machine
[14:34] <brontoeee> davejb, and you have 80 gigs?
[14:34] <nilsma_> mongy, ya, that might be something i can make a use of in the future - but i was hoping for a simple command option to add to the launcher hehe
[14:34] <davejb> brontoeee: 80GB x25-m solid state disk
[14:35] <davejb> brontoeee: later I can buy a storage HD for media and downloads
[14:35] <davejb> brontoeee: i want a smooth desktop experience
[14:36] <mongy> nilsma_, well it takes like 10 seconds.
[14:36] <nilsma_> mongy, mm, anything is easy once you know how to do it
[14:36] <kosnick1> my pc sedns 50 KiB/s somewhere, even behind ufw, any chance i can see where those are going, and how to stop them? *ufw is enabled , "deny incoming traffic", but a have set a new rule for 5900 -allow - anywhere , so i can check it remotely
[14:36] <davejb> assuming i divide into 3 pieces. root, home and boot.  question is how much for root parition?
[14:36] <mongy> nilsma_, I dont really know what you would get out of using the panel instead....
[14:36] <novitololo> brontoeee: I don't have clear the /var/www permission setting :).  The owner, before I did anything was root:root, why www-data is involved here?
[14:37] <brontoeee> davejb, why separated /boot point?
[14:37] <lgn12> davejb: / probably 10-15gb
[14:37] <brontoeee> novitololo, the apache and friends (php) will run under www-data usually
[14:37] <romeo> #how can i start kannel?
[14:37] <nilsma_> mongy, add launcher, set command option "whichever program i want --maximized" would be a lot easier than installing ccsm and setting fixed windows there - not to mention it requires me to install ccsm in the first place :)
[14:37] <davejb> brontoeee: this was suggested by psycho_oreos
[14:38] <davejb> brontoeee: i assumed it was because those kernal images wouldn't move around much
[14:38] <novitololo> yes, but what I want to is write files to /var/www, that's why I created a group ('web') with permissions for the folder.  But you recommend doing this: ': a . chown /var/www to www-data user , b. add your user to www-data group'.  Why?
[14:38] <aks> kosnick1: maybe wireshark or netstat - Hello, is this thing working?
[14:39] <mun> does anyone know how i can install ubuntulooks? I keep getting a warning saying "Gtk-WARNING **: Unable to locate theme engine in module_path: "ubuntulooks","
[14:39] <bazhang> mun, got a link?
[14:39] <lgn12> davejb: I would have / at 10-15gb, /home for rest
[14:39] <brontoeee> novitololo, so you can actually write to /var/www ?
[14:39] <psycho_oreos> davejb, not quite, 256MB for /boot 60GB for /home and the rest for / which leaves around 19-20GB
[14:39] <mun> bazhang, a link to what?
[14:39] <bazhang> mun, ubuntulooks
[14:39] <kosnick1> aks : i used wireshark but i can not see any strange activity there, i am not familar with netstat
[14:39] <novitololo> Right now I can, because my user is in 'web' group, and this group has permissions for the /var/www
[14:40] <novitololo> what I don't get is why would we put www-data group in the middle
[14:40] <brontoeee> psycho_oreos, davejb yes, or 30 gigs for /, since /var/www is there ...
[14:40] <davejb> psycho_oreos: i think i have to choose / root partion as primary partition and let /home take what's left
[14:40] <mun> bazhang, no, but do i need the theme or the engine?
[14:40] <BluesKaj> Hi folks
[14:41] <sercan> How to install Ubuntu version of unity
[14:41] <brontoeee> novitololo, just one way of doing it, your way seems to be working as well
[14:41] <davejb> brontoeee: so 2 to 3 8th's of the disk for root (OS) and the rest for /home files. and possibly /boot which is a nibble anyway
[14:41] <novitololo> but will I have problems with the apache?
[14:41] <davejb> psycho_oreos: is there a benefit to having a separate /boot area?
[14:41] <sercan> What is also now built my version ..
[14:41] <GeekMan> its still doing the same thing playing through 4 speakers not 5
[14:41] <habeous> sercan: there's a repository for it
[14:41] <brontoeee> novitololo, it will tell you
[14:41] <psycho_oreos> davejb, it really doesn't matter which takes primary partition, as long as you don't have more than three iirc primary partitions, that would not give you any easy future expansions when it comes to extended partitions and therefore logical partitions
[14:42] <novitololo> mmm
[14:42] <novitololo> because mneptok told me this ''mneptok: novitololo: sure, but i would use the existing group. the way you have things now, your webroot wil have to be world-readable in order for Apache to serve the pages''
[14:42] <GeekMan> i think i have to manually make a path to the subwoofer :(
[14:42] <brontoeee> davejb, thats a good enough guess imho
[14:42] <davejb> psycho_oreos: so I can define the partions in any order?
[14:43] <sercan> I did the upgrade but nothing changed as I installed the new Ubuntu yu
[14:43] <brontoeee> novitololo, i dont understand that part
[14:43] <davejb> psycho_oreos: say 30GB root, then 256mb /boot and allocate the rest to user space
[14:43] <jrib> novitololo: you shouldn't have web data owned by www-data and writable by www-data unless you specifically want apache to be able to write to those files
[14:43] <psycho_oreos> davejb, yes, for instance /boot can be used as ext2 which is faster than for example ext4 (though one is really talking about minimal boost). Apart from that ext2 tends to go easier a bit on SSD or flash based devices
[14:43] <Bo> Hello, I need some help.
[14:43] <sercan> but did not change anything as I did the upgrade I installed the new ubuntu
[14:43] <novitololo> jrib: ok then I will leave it the way I have it. A group called 'web' can write into that folder.  Thanks
[14:43] <bazhang> Guest3722, then ask
[14:44] <davejb> psycho_oreos: will there be issues with mixing and matching ext2 and ext4?
[14:44] <sercan> I installed a new upgrade to Ubuntu but I did not change anything
[14:44] <Diabeetus> I'm getting the "No repository found" in eclipse while trying to install plugins
[14:44] <GeekMan> i was thinking since i have a the original windows drivers to this computers sound card i could use it to find the path for the sub if it even works that way i plan to get a major in computer electronic engineering soon
[14:44] <psycho_oreos> davejb, its really up to you, but I wouldn't go less than 10GB for rootfs unless you have it set for specific purpose, 30GB is plenty for lots of messing around
[14:44] <sercan> log on from Turkey
[14:44] <psycho_oreos> davejb, not by much but again you can still use /boot as ext4 if needed be
[14:44] <davejb> psycho_oreos: ok, sounds good. I'll go with 30GB as I will have web files in /var
[14:45] <davejb> psycho_oreos: final check.. it doesn't matter which is the primary /boot or /
[14:45] <elgh> I just installed Diablo 2 in Ubuntu, which worked good. But when I try to install the Expansion Set, Ubuntu asks me of the disc... Why is that?
[14:45] <mun> does anyone know where i acn find the ubuntulook engine 64b?
[14:45] <psycho_oreos> davejb, yes it doesn't particularly matter these days
[14:45] <sercan> I installed Ubuntu, but new http://static.arstechnica.net/assets/2010/10/unity_ars-thumb-640xauto-17498.jpg  presented here does not look like
[14:46] <novitololo> talking about groups... Can a file belong to more than one group?
[14:46] <mun> i cant find it in synaptic
[14:46] <psycho_oreos> novitololo, no
[14:46] <davejb> psycho_oreos: people had suggested that certain partitions will get hit with lots of files and that they can be moved about the SSD to avoid deteriation
[14:46] <novitololo> ok
[14:46] <habeous> you have to add a repository, mun. let me dig up the link
[14:46] <jrib> novitololo: not with usual permissions, but you can setup and use ACLs, then yes :)
[14:46] <sercan> If you try to understand steps, addressing
[14:46] <davejb> psycho_oreos: *lots of small file writes
[14:46] <novitololo> jrib: thanks :)
[14:46] <GeekMan> hmm
[14:46] <elgh> Is there a Winechannel?
[14:46] <mongy> sercan, thats either a mock-up or what its maybe going to look like when finished
[14:46] <bazhang> elgh, #winehq
[14:46] <sadwal> Salam alleykum people
[14:46] <LjL> elgh: #winehq
[14:46] <nilsma_> ubuntu 10.04, added launcher to panel, i want that application to launch maximized, what do i append in the command of that launcher in order to make, say chromium, launch maximized?
[14:47] <erUSUL> sercan: unity interface is only used in the netbook release. desktop release uses more or less plain gnome
[14:47] <mun> habeous, thanks
[14:47] <brontoeee> jrib, thats what i'am reading as recommended for dev server, not for a production one, which makes sense, since you dont have to worry if scripts, like php will have enough permissions, am'I wrong?
[14:47] <coz_> mun,   I am not familiar with an  "ubuntu-look"  package
[14:47] <psycho_oreos> davejb, yeah but those won't be affected with the choice of either primary or logical partition. I'm sure when dealing with lots of small files, you're talking directories like /tmp, /var, and potentially /etc
[14:47] <habeous> http://www.webupd8.org/2010/06/unity-finally-lands-in-ubuntu-1010.html
[14:47] <deepak> hiii
[14:47] <sercan> I understand
[14:48] <jrib> brontoeee: sorry, what do you mean by "that"?
[14:48] <mongy> nilsma_, tbh, I think its application dependent...  gnome-terminal --full-screen works for gnome-terminal, not another app
[14:48] <sercan> thanks
[14:48] <davejb> psycho_oreos: so could I map those to some kind of ram file system instead of hitting the SSD
[14:48] <mongy> nilsma_, so only really if an app supports the option, I guess
[14:48] <Danskmand> Howdy :-) - I have a virtual ubuntu server that has 1 NIC connected to it. I edited the /etc/network/interfaces and ran /etc/init.d/networking stop (I get a "stop: unknown instance") and start (I get a "networking stop/waiting"). But I still see only the lo0....WHat do I need to set up more ?
[14:48] <brontoeee> jrib, /var/www owned by www-data
[14:48] <securityxxxpert_> hey anybody around that could help me out with ssh?
[14:48] <securityxxxpert_> been banging my had against the desk for a few hours now
[14:48] <sercan> Well I do not get to the desktop unity
[14:48] <mun> habeous, is that for me?
[14:48] <aeon-ltd> securityxxxpert_: we need details
[14:49] <nilsma_> mongy, very possible, i should investigate that, thanks :)
[14:49] <habeous> mun: yes
[14:49] <jrib> brontoeee: ah, well production or dev apache will run as www-data so only if you are ok with apache writing to file A should apache be able to.   So if you have something like a wiki, sure.  But for static content definitely not imo
[14:49] <securityxxxpert_> aeon-ltd: thanks for the reply.  The details include i'm trying to setup a ssh server with pub/priv key pairs authentication on a encrypted home directory
[14:49] <Danskmand> I did backup and restore the vm....maybe I need to change the mac-address of the NIC ?
[14:49] <sercan> Is there among you who know turkish
[14:49] <psycho_oreos> davejb, yes and no, because that somewhat requires slightly advanced setup when you want to use a portion of your RAM as a filesystem

[14:50] <davejb> psycho_oreos: perhaps im being over caucious about these SSD... im sure they will last a few years before deterioating (for everyday use like desktop apps)

[14:52] <jrib> securityxxxpert_: there's nothing wrong with what you are seeing, what do you expect to see instead?
[14:52] <psycho_oreos> davejb, well I don't have any SSD so I can't say for certain. Sure that one maybe overreacting to the way SSD are meant to be treated however SSDs aren't cheap and its best for one to be better cautious than lax :)
[14:52] <elgh> I tried to install Diablo 2 on my Ubuntu 10.10, which worked fine. Now I tried to install Expansion Set, but my computer keeps asking about the CD... Why?
[14:53] <bazhang> elgh, did you check the appdb? and ask in #winehq ?
[14:53] <davejb> psycho_oreos: as long as my data is safe, i can live with the loss of money
[14:53] <mun> how do i stop using the ubuntulooks engine?
[14:53] <Diverdude> Are there any good alternatives to the built in remote Desktop functionality in Ubuntu?. I cannot use the built in because it is extremely laggy. I have lowered color depth to 8 bit colors. I am running it from my laptop to my media center via LAN where laptop is connected via wireless and mediacenter via wire. I have also set system->Pref->Appearnce->Visual Effects to none on the mediabox (the one which is being remote controlled) and als
[14:53] <Diverdude> o does not help...So i think the software is the problem. Any suggestions for alternatives?
[14:53] <elgh> bazhang, Worked fine in Ubuntu 10.04.
[14:53] <jrib> Diverdude: ssh :)  (or try freenx)
[14:54] <bazhang> elgh, so a no to my question?
[14:54] <jrib> !vnc > Diverdude
[14:54] <jrib> !freenx > Diverdude
[14:54] <psycho_oreos> davejb, well if that's a concern then I consider something like a RAID setup (and no not RAID 0)
[14:54] <Diverdude> jrib, oh and ssh is also not an option
[14:54] <brontoeee> Diverdude, i'am using nomachine from time to time, its not OS thought and as such likely unsupported
[14:54] <elgh> bazhang, Yes, a no to your question. No new since 10.04 in appdb.
[14:54] <coz_> mun,   I dont know of an  "ubuntu-looks"  engine... what exactly are you wanting to change?  what "appearance"  is it that you dont like?
[14:54] <bazhang> elgh, no idea then, most app specific is in #winehq .
[14:55] <elgh> bazhang, Diablo worked fine to install, that's weird.
[14:55] <davejb> psycho_oreos: good idea
[14:55] <Diverdude> jrib, it has to be so that i can see on the screen attached to the mediacenter what the person remote controlling it is doing
[14:55] <jrib> securityxxxpert_: are you there?...
[14:56] <mun> coz_, well i'm just running my old script which shows a popup window, but now it complaisn that "Gtk-WARNING **: Unable to locate theme engine in module_path: "ubuntulooks","
[14:56] <jrib> Diverdude: right so try the other vnc options that ubottu lists and freenx and see if any of them is better
[14:56] <Diverdude> jrib, basically i need it start movies and music and browse internet on media center via my laptop and have it displayed on TV
[14:56] <coz_> mun,   hold on let me check
[14:56] <mun> coz_, thanks
[14:57] <coz_> mun,  open synaptic  and  hit search and type in   ubuntulooks ,,,what comes up is th e    gtk2-engines-murrine,,,, maybe try   re-installing that
[14:57] <brontoeee> uhu, freenx is gpl version of nomachine nx i guess?
[14:57] <jrib> brontoeee: something like that, I'm not sure of the relation
[14:58] <mun> coz_, right. ok
[14:58] <mun> coz_, but i already have it installed
[14:58] <securityxxxpert_> jrib: yeah sorry man, relationship issues atm
[14:58] <jrib> securityxxxpert_: ok, did you see my questions?
[14:59] <securityxxxpert_> jrib: anyways that's not right.  It should only ask for the private key
[14:59] <sacarlson> Diverdude: remember you can run X apps in ssh,  but I imagine that might even be worse
[14:59] <coz_> mun,  I understand hold on I am reading a few articles on this

[14:59] <gebbione> hello folks ... i have a kernel problem with a full description on the ubuntu forum - http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=10408674#post10408674 - please take a look and reply or PM me here if you can help
[14:59] <jacekowski> securityxxxpert_: you're the expert
[14:59] <jrib> securityxxxpert_: 1) are you entering the correct password for your private key 2) you specified a location other than ~/.ssh/authorized_keys for your authorized_keys in your sshd_config, are you using /etc/ssh/keys/se.../authorized_keys?
[14:59] <bazhang> jacekowski, thats not needed
[15:00] <coz_> mun,     http://gnome-look.org/content/show.php?content=43255      however I believe ubuntulooks has been integrated into  gtk2-engines
[15:00] <Encry9> Hi, How do you (ADD) stuff to a 7z archive with command line? So far I'm only able to replace the archive with a new one: 7za a file1.7z /home/sean/file1
[15:00] <mun> coz_, unfortunately this one's 32b
[15:00] <securityxxxpert_> jrib:  1. Yes.  2. I have it reflected in the config file
[15:00] <mun> coz_, 'cos i've tried it and it complains about EFCLAS
[15:00] <ishaq> q
[15:00] <coz_> mun,   mm hold on
[15:01] <securityxxxpert_> jacekowski: sexpert ;)
[15:01] <jrib> securityxxxpert_: erm, what do you mean "I have it reflected in the config file"?  Your post says "/home/user/.ssh/authorized_keys" and your config says "/etc/ssh/keys/securityxxxpert/authorized_keys
[15:01] <bullgard> Whats the use of /var/log/gmd:0.log?
[15:01] <securityxxxpert_> jrib: let me look it over man.  Bad day. May of had a typo
[15:02] <Gnea> Encry9: typing 7z by itself seems to provide the answer
[15:02] <coz_> mun,   reopen synaptic   hit "Search"   type in        gtk2-engines   then right click that package   and select "Mark for reinstallation"
[15:02] <securityxxxpert_> jrib: my post is a typo.  I meant i have the pub key file in /etc/ssh/keyfiles/securityxxxpert/authorized_keys
[15:02] <brontoeee> Encry9, i think the archive has to be 1st built in a proper way (and thats not default), however i cant recall any specific command lines or even terminology
[15:02] <jrib> securityxxxpert_: restart ssh
[15:03] <Gnea> brontoeee: that's why if you type 7z and press enter, it will tell you what's what
[15:03] <mun> coz_, nope. no difference.
[15:03] <jrib> securityxxxpert_: and the path you just posted is also not what you have in your config file
[15:03] <brontoeee> Gnea, right, sorry i did not see your answer
[15:03] <coz_> mun,   the ubuntulooks engine is part of the gtk2-engines package... restart x  and see if it has changed
[15:03] <Diverdude> sacarlson, yeah i know, but i need to have shared screen
[15:03] <mun> coz_, ok
[15:04] <securityxxxpert_> jrib: look at the forum post again. it's all correct now
[15:04] <mun> coz_, thanks. brb
[15:04] <Diverdude> sacarlson, so ssh -X is no good
[15:04] <securityxxxpert_> http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=10408610
[15:04] <securityxxxpert_> let me restart the ssh server
[15:04] <jrib> securityxxxpert_: no it's not, see what I just told you
[15:04] <Gnea> brontoeee: no worries, just seems odd when peuple overlook the obvious
[15:05] <securityxxxpert_> jrib: fuck me your right
[15:05] <gpc> !language | securityxxxpert_
[15:05] <securityxxxpert_> well..my bad
[15:05] <mun> coz_, hi again. nope still the same...
[15:05] <davejb> psycho_oreos: what was the primary reason for using ext2 and not ext4 for the /boot parition please?
[15:06] <Encry9> Gnea: ok, you're right I overlooked that!
[15:06] <coz_> mun,  ,,,  mmm  I know that the ubuntulooks engine is part of the gtk2-engines package...not sure what the issue is ,,,did you install another theme just before this occurred?
[15:06] <psycho_oreos> davejb, performance and may treat SSD devices better
[15:06] <securityxxxpert_> jrib: I just check everything and it all points to /etc/ssh/keys/securityxxxpert/authorized_keys
[15:07] <jrib> securityxxxpert_: ok, now restart the server and verify it does not accept your password
[15:07] <mun> coz_, well, if i go to appearence and i get a similar warning when i choose my current theme.
[15:07] <davejb> psycho_oreos: ok... my final plan is 30GB / for root (ext4) primary.  250Mb for /boot (ext2) logical. the rest (ext4) for /home...  sound like a good plan?
[15:07] <elgh> What is the path to my CDROM if I want to access it in Terminal?
[15:08] <coz_> mun,   open a terminal    sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade
[15:08] <jrib> elgh: /cdrom or /media/cdrom? or /dev/cdrom?
[15:08] <mun> coz_, nothing needs to be upgraded except for my browser.
[15:09] <psycho_oreos> I personally would prefer putting /boot as primary and / as logical.. also making /boot the very first partition is somewhat a little more ideal. Again its up to you
[15:09] <securityxxxpert_> jrib:  restarted everything.  It asked for the keyfile password, then after I entered that it asked for a regular password
[15:09] <elgh> jrib, Dunno ^
[15:09] <jrib> elgh: umm, try them?
[15:09] <coz_> mun,   then I am puzzled.... go to google   use this search string      ubuntu  cannot find   ubuntulooks engine      see what comes up  :)
[15:09] <elgh> Can only access /media/cdrom... But can't see any files. :S
[15:09] <jrib> securityxxxpert_: try connecting again with "ssh -vvv", pastebin the output as well as /var/log/auth.log from the server
[15:09] <mun> coz_, yeah i am. but most people seem to have got it fixed using the 32b.
[15:10] <mun> unfortunately i'm on 64b
[15:10] <jrib> elgh: do you mean the directory is empty or you do not have permissions?
[15:10] <coz_> mun,   are you sure  that the themes  are  dependent on the architecture?   I would think it wouldnt matter
[15:10] <elgh> It appears empty.
[15:10] <jrib> elgh: what were you expecting to see?

[15:12] <coz_> mun,   ah ok  then you might have to edit the script perhaps   not sure... though
[15:13] <mun> coz_, hmm ok then. thanks
[15:16] <jrib> securityxxxpert_: you also know you're attempting to connect as "user1" not "securityxxpert" right?

[15:18] <securityxxxpert_> jrib:  pastebin.com/UMRp1PCU
[15:18] <securityxxxpert_> jrib:  I was actually trying to mask the user name of the identity file to be honest..everything is how it should be in the config file
[15:18] <ishaq> \
[15:18] <securityxxxpert_> i'm going to pastebin the server one you requested now
[15:19] <jrib> securityxxxpert_: I don't understand... you connected successfully now, no?
[15:19] <davejb> psycho_oreos: i went with your suggestions.  when final question, for the /home setup if I select "Location for the new partition: End" will it make any difference to the way the data is written, or should I just select "Beginning" and let it eat forwards across the disk?
[15:19] <jrib> securityxxxpert_: oh, you entered your password?
[15:19] <securityxxxpert_> yes..but what i'm not getting is when I have password authentication off.   why is it not letting me just login to my ssh server with the private keys password
[15:20] <securityxxxpert_> jrib: basically it's asking for two sets of credentials.  My private key password, and my User password
[15:20] <securityxxxpert_> jrib: this wouldn't be a issue if it required a private key but it doesn't, because I had a buddy ssh to my box and he got in with just my usernames password

[15:41] <KM0201> induz: hmm, honestly i can't really remember... i had to set up XP in vbox for something one time, so i just sync my music players through xp in vbox.
[15:41] <silvering> snimavat so whats the problem?
[15:41] <securityxxxpert_> jrib: exactly my point..i'm baffled
[15:41] <BluesKaj> induz, look in nautilus or dolphin / network
[15:41] <snimavat> whyts the difference between update manager and apt-get update
[15:41] <securityxxxpert_> jrib: it takes the key just peachy..but i'm still prompted for my user password even though its disabled in the donfig
[15:41] <bullgard> Whats the use of /var/log/gmd:0.log?
[15:41] <snimavat> update manager shows a kernal upgrade available today
[15:41] <KM0201> induz: the first gen ones, i don't beleive can be "browsed" as removable storage, you have to use either gtkpod or one of the ipod programs to do it.
[15:41] <jrib> securityxxxpert_: erm, stop ssh completely, make sure with ps, then start it again
[15:41] <SUFLEX_> When i turn the computer on after hibernating it, my previously open programs are not restored.
[15:42] <snimavat> but apt-get upgrade doesnt
[15:42] <snimavat> why ?
[15:42] <SUFLEX_> When i turn the computer on after hibernating it, my previously open programs are not restored.
[15:42] <mongy> securityxxxpert_,  using encrypted home?
[15:42] <induz> KM0201, if i synch the iPod, are my pics on that iPod going to reformate/gone??
[15:42] <silvering> snimavat, update manager is graphic tool, apt-get update is terminal command
[15:42] <silvering> or.. i cant understand what ur asking?
[15:42] <SUFLEX_> please help
[15:42] <wildc4rd> afternoon all
[15:42] <snimavat> update manager shows a kernal upgrade available today
[15:42] <snimavat> but apt-get upgrade doesnt
[15:42] <snimavat> why this difference?
[15:42] <KM0201> induz: hmm thats a godo question.
[15:42] <bullgard> !hibernate | SUFLEX_
[15:43] <SUFLEX_> 	
[15:43] <SUFLEX_> bullgard?
[15:43] <snimavat> silvering ??
[15:43] <nimrod10> a
[15:43] <silvering> snimavat, try to search in the update manager options, i think there was an option for kernel upgrades
[15:43] <silvering> not really sure, but give it a try
[15:43] <SUFLEX_> When i turn the computer on after hibernating it, my previously open programs are not restored.
[15:43] <bullgard> !resume | SUFLEX_
[15:43] <securityxxxpert_> mongy: yes
[15:44] <snimavat> the question is why they both are different?
[15:44] <snimavat> i am not looking for option
[15:44] <KM0201> induz: this is kind of old, but it says gtkpod does pics... http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=103071
[15:44] <securityxxxpert_> jrib:  stop it with what command?  /etc/init.d/ssh stop
[15:44] <guntbert> !askthebot > bullgard
[15:44] <SUFLEX_> When i turn the computer on after hibernating it, my previously open programs are not restored. WHY?
[15:44] <mattc__> Latest ubuntu being very tempermental with intel gigabit 82578DC. not showing in ifconfig
[15:44] <guntbert> !repeat | SUFLEX_
[15:44] <mattc__> what steps can i take to try and make it work better
[15:45] <mongy> secretary_linux, thats probably why.. it needs the password to decrypt
[15:45] <silvering> snimavat,  because there could be restriction in the graphic update manager for showing the kernel updates
[15:45] <bullgard> SUFLEX_: Because your computer is not properly configured.
[15:45] <induz> KM0201, i connected my iPod touch 1st gen to Gtpkg...
[15:45] <snimavat> so doesnt both apt-get and update manager pick same updates
[15:45] <SUFLEX_> bullgard how to configure it
[15:45] <snimavat> i believed, they should be doing the same job
[15:45] <SUFLEX_> SUFLEX_ properly
[15:45] <SUFLEX_> bullgard
[15:46] <jrib> securityxxxpert_: that doesn't use upstart :/  You should be doing « stop ssh » or « service ssh stop ».  Now that you've used the init.d script directly though, I'm not sure.  Maybe try stopping it using both methods (stop ssh AND /etc/init.d/ssh stop), make sure all sessions are closed, check that ssh is really dead with « ps -ef | grep ssh » and then start it again using upstart: « start ssh »
[15:46] <ZykoticK9> securityxxxpert_, "sudo service ssh stop" is the modern version of your init.d command
[15:47] <guntbert> snimavat: run apt-get update before ... upgrade
[15:47] <snimavat> yep, i did tht
[15:47] <snimavat> guntbert: i always do tht  first, does any one else got a kernal upgrade today ?
[15:48] <bazhang> snimavat, its held back
[15:48] <guntbert> snimavat: then select "check" in upgrade manager, its possible you got it already
[15:48] <snimavat> held back?
[15:48] <bazhang> snimavat, yes.
[15:48] <snimavat> what is tht?
[15:48] <snimavat> held back
[15:48] <snowrichard> freenode complains about my forward and reverse dns not matcing.  I have no control over my isp's dns setup
[15:48] <mongy> I got the kernel update today...
[15:48] <bazhang> not available automatically snimavat
[15:48] <induz> KM0201, how can i setup a seperate repo for another iPod on the same GTPkg
[15:49] <delkin> I have my camera up side down. How to fix this?
[15:49] <snimavat> humn..
[15:49] <KM0201> induz: honestly, it has been so long sicne i used it, i can't remember, I think you can.
[15:49] <bazhang> snimavat, should hit your mirror by tomorrow likely
[15:49] <samski> any help with partition recovery?
[15:50] <bullgard> SUFLEX_: This is a complex matter which is not well documented. Start in https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Home?action=fullsearch&context=180&value=uew&fullsearch=Text and search for "thaw" and "thawing". --  You will need to read a lot.
[15:50] <induz> KM0201,  i installed Gtpod and by mistake i connected the wrong iPod
[15:50] <KM0201> lol
[15:50] <SUFLEX_> bullgard thanks a lot
[15:50] <induz> KM0201, it says a seperate repo must be installed for different ipod
[15:51] <snimavat> What i am experiencing is : apt-get upgrade says
[15:51] <snimavat> The following packages have been kept back:
[15:51] <snimavat>   linux-generic linux-headers-generic linux-image-generic
[15:51] <snimavat> 0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 3 not upgraded.
[15:51] <snimavat> Where as update manager says updates are available for linux kernal (of size 42 mb) why both behaves differently
[15:51] <FloodBot1> snimavat: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
[15:51] <induz> KM0201,  actually Its iPod touch 1st gen
[15:51] <KM0201> induz: i'm not really familiar w/ the program... i just suggested it cuz i used it a long time ago...
[15:51] <samski> any help with testdisk partition recovery?
[15:51] <KM0201> induz: well, there's a big difference in a ipod touch first gen, and an ipod first gen... i've never owned a touch
[15:51] <jrib> snimavat: because you aren't running « sudo apt-get dist-upgrade »
[15:51] <snimavat> okey.. so only dist-upgrade picks kernal upgrade, ryt
[15:51] <bullgard> samski: Please report an error message that you have obtained.
[15:51] <induz> KM0201, i have been going around for this Ipodtouch, where can i get info??
[15:52] <samski> bullgard: errrm? grub rescue?
[15:52] <KM0201> !ipod | induz i assume you have looked here?
[15:52] <jrib> snimavat: you can read about the differences in « man apt-get ».  To search a man page for "dist-upgrade" for example, enter the man page and type: /dist-upgrade<enter>.  The 'n' and 'N' keys will scroll through hits
[15:53] <securityxxxpert_> jrib:  I did all that the process was dead, I restarted it, and its still asking me for a password
[15:53] <snimavat> okey
[15:53] <jrib> securityxxxpert_: change the port in your config and see if that gets updated
[15:53] <securityxxxpert_> ok
[15:53] <oCean> securityxxxpert_: have you seen mongy's suggestion on encrypted home? Seems valid
[15:54] <jrib> oCean, mongy: securityxxxpert_ has his authorized_keys file outside of /home
[15:54] <mongy> is the server he is trying to ssh to encrypted tho..
[15:54] <induz> KM0201,  what is USB tethering??
[15:54] <samski> bullgard: u there? want to private message?
[15:54] <securityxxxpert_> mongy:  the homedir of the server is encrypted.  The keys like jrib said are outside of hte homedir
[15:55] <[Adam|Miner]_> I am looking to install ubuntu, but how would I burn the ISO to a hard drive (from windows) then install from that?
[15:55] <mongy> I ssh to an encrypted users home, and have the same issue,I woud like it to not ask for pass, but it does.
[15:55] <mongy> yes, but,  the home is encrypted, therefore needs the password
[15:55] <bazhang> [Adam|Miner]_, why not use a usb stick and unetbootin
[15:55] <samski> any partition recovery help available? data is still there and viewable in testdisk.
[15:55] <mongy> bug or feature, idk
[15:55] <[Adam|Miner]_> All my USB sticks are very old/slow
[15:55] <securityxxxpert_> jrib:  I changed the port to 2222
[15:55] <jrib> mongy: that's not true, at least in my experience.  Just move the authorized_keys file outside of home, and it should "just work"
[15:56] <bullgard> samski: I do not answer to messages like "[16:52]	<samski>	bullgard: errrm? grub rescue?" I consider them rude.
[15:56] <securityxxxpert_> jrib:  tcp        0      0 0.0.0.0:2222            0.0.0.0:*               LISTEN      -
[15:56] <KM0201> induz: i believe tethering, is when you use your ipod/iphone's WIFI access, on a portable laptop
[15:56] <xangua> then a cd [Adam|Miner]_
[15:56] <securityxxxpert_> it is working and did register
 <colon> <parenright> : "☺" U263A   # Compose : )
[15:56] <bazhang> [Adam|Miner]_, yes, burn a cd
[15:56] <Sonja> do i need the U263A in there?
[15:56] <induz> KM0201, got you
[15:56] <Sonja> for xcompose
[15:56] <ratpoison> I'm using gnome 10.10 on GNOME and I have a somewhat unusual language setup. Being a native greek who also speaks japanese, I need to be able to write all three of those languages. I'm using ibus and anthy for japanese input. This is working on Gtk+ apps, but on qt ones greek accents can't be input correctly (e.g. 'α instead of ά) and on Tk and wine they just can't be input at all. Ideas, anyone?
[15:56] <samski> bullgard: sorry if you found that rude. i don't have a particular error message
[15:56] <securityxxxpert_> mongy: answer me this then.  I did a ssh into my box password credentials only.  Didn't even need my private key
[15:56] <securityxxxpert_> that's not suppose to happen
[15:56] <ratpoison> correction: gnome = ubuntu
[15:56] <induz> my iPod touch 1st gen 8Gb is not getting reconised by GTPod
[15:57] <TopCat> i'm having weird mount issues.  in fstab, when i set the mount path /media, the directory i made appears (/media/backup).  When i set the mount path to /media/backup, a the drive mounts but says that /media/backup doesn't exist.
[15:57] <induz> I mean GTKPod
[15:57] <mongy> securityxxxpert_,  well it will work if you supply password...  what was your point..
[15:58] <jrib> securityxxxpert_: stop ssh and start it with « sudo /usr/sbin/sshd -d », try to connect, pastebin resulting output
[15:58] <mongy> as far as mine goes, if I dont give it the key and just use password it works, if I give it the key it doesnt need password.
[15:58] <securityxxxpert_> mongy:  You're missing the point.  I want to authenticat not by password but by private/pub key pairs
[15:58] <securityxxxpert_> jrib: doing that now
[15:59] <jrib> securityxxxpert_: by the way waht does this return: ls -ld /etc/ssh/keyfiles/securityxxxpert{,authorized_keys}
[15:59] <shcherbak> ratpoison: i think scim had support for japanise alphabets, but greek? no clue.
[15:59] <ratpoison> shcherbak, that's why I'm not using scim for greek
[16:00] <jrib> mongy: if you want to just use keys without passwords, add "AuthorizedKeysFile /etc/ssh/%u/authorized_keys" to your sshd_config (%u expands to username), restart ssh, voila :)
[16:00] <ratpoison> shcherbak, I just added another keyboard layout for it.
[16:00] <compdoc> TopCat, Im pretty sure the mount path has to be the actual directory in fstab (/media/backup)
[16:00] <induz> KM0201, iPodTouch is not getting recognised GTKpod
[16:00] <samski> can anyone help with partition recovery with testdisk?
[16:00] <securityxxxpert_> jrib:  that command outputs securityxxxpert@DarkAbyss:~$ ls -ld /etc/ssh/keys/securityxxxpert/{authorized_keys}
[16:00] <securityxxxpert_> ls: cannot access /etc/ssh/keys/securityxxxpert/{authorized_keys}: No such file or directory
[16:00] <jrib> securityxxxpert_: you forgot a comma
[16:01] <jrib> securityxxxpert_: and I forgot a '/'...
[16:01] <KM0201> induz: thats not really surprising... i recommended it when you told me you had an ipod first gen
[16:01] <securityxxxpert_> drwxr-xr-x 3 root root 4096 2011-01-29 07:33 /etc/ssh/keys/securityxxxpert/
[16:01] <securityxxxpert_> drwx------ 2 root root 4096 2011-01-29 09:31 /etc/ssh/keys/securityxxxpert/authorized_keys
[16:01] <TopCat> when i change it in fstab to /media/backup it mounts the drive and shows up twices in natuluis
[16:01] <TopCat> Nautilus*
[16:01] <TopCat> one as 500 GB filesystem and one as backup
[16:02] <compdoc> hmm, not familure with Nautilus
[16:02] <shcherbak> ratpoison: well, I would combine dvorak with xbindkeys, but it means to design layout from scratch (with few languages it does make sens)
[16:02] <TopCat> compdoc: and get Error mounting: mount exited with exit code 1: helper failed with:  mount: mount point /media/backup does not exist
[16:02] <jrib> securityxxxpert_: hmm, chmod 644 /etc/ssh/keys/securityxxxpert/authorized_keys; chown securityxxxpert: /etc/ssh/keys/securityxxxpert/authorized_keys
[16:02] <ratpoison> shcherbak, and where would I find info on how to do this the "right" way?
[16:03] <compdoc> Nautilus is just the file manager for gnome?
[16:03] <mattc__> going to ask a question in the forums, would problems with eth0 detection be a hardware or a software problem?
[16:03] <TopCat> compdoc:  fstab line:  UUID=bb0d0a82-3928-48cc-8689-36d6424c53c7 /media/backup               ext4    rw,exec,auto,users 0      0
[16:03] <TopCat> compdoc:  yes
[16:03] <induz> KM0201, I am sorry for miscommunication...I have iPod and Ipod touch but I want the pics out from my iPodtouch
[16:03] <KM0201> induz: yeah, i'm not familair at all w/ the ipod touch
[16:03] <CarlFK> apt-get install fancontrol.. how can I then turn on the cpu fan to 100%?
[16:04] <shcherbak> ratpoison: Never come across, try folks from #tmux or similar.
[16:04] <compdoc> TopCat, Im suspecting the 'exec,auto,users' options
[16:04] <induz> KM0201, I dont use bot much but I stupidly put the pics on that iPOdTouch
[16:04] <KM0201> induz: if your pc is powerful enough, just vbox XP, and use itunes.. :)(thats what i did for my ipod, and also for my zune)
[16:04] <shcherbak> *came*
[16:04] <securityxxxpert_> jrib: let me try to connect again
[16:04] <ratpoison> shcherbak, thnx, I'll give it a shot
[16:04] <TopCat> compdoc:  what options you suggest
[16:04] <compdoc> UUID=bb0d0a82-3928-48cc-8689-36d6424c53c7 /media/backup               ext4    defaults 0      0
[16:05] <compdoc> or rw
[16:05] <t_> czesc all
[16:05] <compdoc> defaults usually works
[16:05] <induz> KM0201, when i insert the IPODtouch to XP comp[another], iTunes asks me to synch the iPod touch, I dont want to lose those pics
[16:05] <piotrek> Piotrek
[16:05] <j0e> CarlFK: It's a BIOS setting.
[16:05] <induz> KM0201, what this synch means in layman terms
[16:05] <KM0201> induz: so set itunes for "manua syncing"
[16:05] <jrib> securityxxxpert_: change ownership of the parent directory (/etc/ssh/securityxxxpert) too
[16:05] <shcherbak> ratpoison: i ment, #monad
[16:05] <madsailor> TopCat, Does /media/backup exist...in other words did you mkdir /media/backup before trying to mount to it?
[16:05] <shcherbak> ratpoison: #xmonad
[16:06] <TopCat> compdoc:  i tried it before but may have had the other parts screwy.  i will try again.  Additionally, is there any way to stop the device to umount, then remount with new mount options besides reboot ?  rebooting is getting annoying.
[16:06] <TopCat> madsailor: yes i did create that dir
[16:06] <induz> KM0201, i dot get the manaul option to synch...but is it going to wipe my pics from that iPodTouch and gong to put the pics on that Xp comp[brothers]
[16:06] <compdoc> TopCat, umount the directory, then to remount: mount -a
[16:06] <induz> KM0201, I get the manual option
[16:07] <compdoc> that reads fstab
[16:07] <KM0201> induz: honestly, i don't know, i told you i don't use an ipod touch.
[16:07] <TopCat> madsailor: but when i use /media/backup as the mountpoint in fstab the dir "disappears"
[16:07] <KM0201> and i just use itunes to sync my gym music.
[16:07] <induz> KM0201, what manual synching is going to perfom??
[16:07] <securityxxxpert_> jrib: should I use the ls -ld command to show the permissions?
[16:07] <induz> BRB
[16:07] <jrib> securityxxxpert_: you already showed them above, it's currently owned by root
[16:08] <KM0201> manual syncing means it doesn't auto sync
[16:08] <KM0201> to whatever soruce folders you have.
[16:08] <alert> döner macht schöner
[16:08] <alert> i see everyone agrees to that fact
[16:08] <securityxxxpert_> jrib: ok I did the chmod 644 to both folders that you said
[16:08] <alert> chmod, on windows you dont need such crazy things...
[16:08] <vak> under which user should Tomcat usually run in Ubuntu? www-data?
[16:08] <jrib> securityxxxpert_: no, don't chmod 644 the folder, only the authorized_keys file
[16:08] <bazhang> alert, pardon?
[16:09] <securityxxxpert_> jrib:  well..what should I do then.  I already did a chmod 644 on that folder.  I thought that's what I was suppose do
[16:09] <TopCat> what command to see what drives are mounted ?
[16:09] <jrib> securityxxxpert_: 755
[16:09] <jrib> TopCat: mount
[16:09] <securityxxxpert_> ok changed it back
[16:09] <TopCat> madsailor: looks like the dir wasn't created...although, i KNOW i created it before
[16:10] <TopCat> weird
[16:10] <securityxxxpert_> jrib:  let me try to stop/start the server
[16:11] <TopCat> okay
[16:11] <TopCat> now i'm getting permissions problems.
[16:11] <securityxxxpert_> jrib: it's still prompting for a password
[16:11] <TopCat> this was the same problem i had when the mount point was set to just /media
[16:11] <ox3a> securityxxxpert_, hi
[16:11] <TopCat> the backup dir was present but couldn't write data to it.
[16:11] <TopCat> hold on ... let me try defaults option
[16:11] <jrib> securityxxxpert_: right, so stop ssh run it as « sudo /usr/sbin/sshd -d ».  Also, paste the output of that ls -ld command just to check the new permissions
[16:11] <securityxxxpert_> ox3a: sup?
[16:12] <securityxxxpert_> jrib: ok stand by
[16:12] <ox3a> securityxxxpert_, pm?
[16:13] <TopCat> same permission issues...
[16:13] <TopCat> with the defaults option
[16:13] <jrib> TopCat: what filesystem?
[16:13] <TopCat> ext4
[16:13] <jrib> TopCat: so set the permissions to whatever you want.
[16:14] <jrib> !permissions > TopCat
[16:14] <TopCat> word

[16:14] <Guest67281> hai to every one
[16:14] <jrib> securityxxxpert_: and then when you connect?
[16:14] <jrib> securityxxxpert_: wait, why does it say port 22?
[16:15] <securityxxxpert_> jrib: I changed it back to 22
[16:15] <jrib> securityxxxpert_: ok
[16:15] <fisch246> so if i get accepted into a launchpad group i get an email about it right?
[16:15] <shcherbak> ratpoison: just cross my mind that it can be just matter is qt setting, after first search got this: http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-27811.html
[16:15] <securityxxxpert_> jrib: let me try to login to it again
[16:15] <Guest67281> i have a problem that while opening any folder i am founding a foldername.exe file ....how to remove all types of present in them
[16:16] <jrib> securityxxxpert_: pastebin ls -l /etc/ssh/keys/securityxxxpert when you get a chance
[16:16] <armence> So, I launched an update last night and since then it has been stuck on "Unpacking replacement openssh-server". What should I do?
[16:16] <jrib> Guest67281: use find with -delete.  But do you know where they come from?  Seems like you should try to find out first
[16:16] <jrib> armence: press enter?

[16:18] <fisch246> armence: ah ic stuck... hm...
[16:18] <TopCat> what's the deal with that ?
[16:18] <mongy> jrib, ok, I made a folder in /etc/ssh/mongy and put the authorised key file in there, and I am still getting password request.
[16:18] <han_> Hey guys, ive got a question, kind of a newb at ubuntu.I've been running ubuntu for a few weeks now, but I have a quick question: I keep getting update notifications and there seems to be a lot of them. like 150mbs worth, is there anyway to filter out which ones I need and I don't need?
[16:18] <jrib> securityxxxpert_: well doesn't sound good... can you paste: ls -l /etc/ssh/keys/securityxxxpert ?
[16:18] <securityxxxpert_> jrib: yeah
[16:18] <mongy> jrib, I changed sshd_config also.
[16:19] <securityxxxpert_> securityxxxpert@DarkAbyss:/etc/ssh/keys/securityxxxpert$ ls -l /etc/ssh/keys/securityxxxpert/
[16:19] <securityxxxpert_> total 4
[16:19] <securityxxxpert_> drw-r--r-- 2 securityxxxpert securityxxxpert 4096 2011-01-29 09:31 authorized_keys
[16:19] <esing> Hi,   !!! couldn't open("/dev/coa"): Device or resource busy  .... what does this mean?
[16:19] <jrib> mongy: you need to restart ssh
[16:19] <mongy> jrib, done that also
[16:19] <Fuchs> esing: that the device or ressource is already used by something else, you might want to use lsof or fuse to find out what uses them
[16:19] <aquo> http://stackoverflow.com/questions/4837895/automake-dependency-on-build-result
[16:19] <esing> lsof /dev/coa ye?
[16:20] <aquo> may somebody help me with this?
[16:20] <shcherbak> ratpoison: and this one: http://www.m17n.org/m17n-lib-en/
[16:20] <Fuchs> esing: lsof | grep coa
[16:20] <armence> fisch246, Any idea then?
[16:20] <jrib> securityxxxpert_: that's a folder, not a file -_-
[16:20] <esing> not working
[16:20] <jrib> mongy: pastebin your ssh_config
[16:20] <fisch246> armence: well since it's an update, what i would do is restart the update... however this may not be a good idea...
[16:20] <edwardteach> han_, you probably need all of them if you never updated since the live cd install!
[16:21] <esing> prompting Warning: " cant stat() iso9660 file system /bootmnt OUtput information maybe incomplete ... 4 times
[16:21] <armence> Does anybody else have a better idea?
[16:21] <jrib> securityxxxpert_: authorized_keys is a FILE whose contents is a one pub key per line
[16:21] <esing> Fuchs fuse isnt working either
[16:21] <armence> fisch246, No offense meant, but recommending something followed by "this may not be a good idea" does not really inspire my confidence...
[16:21] <securityxxxpert_> jrib:  authorized keys is a file? not a folder?
[16:22] <mongy> brb
[16:22] <jrib> TopCat: that's normal, part of ext4 filesystem. If fsck ever finds some "lost files" it puts them there
[16:22] <jrib> securityxxxpert_: yes
[16:22] <fisch246> armence, non taken, it's just stopping updates while in the process of updating can cause problems
[16:22] <jrib> securityxxxpert_: I noticed that you called it a folder earlier but thought it was just a brain fart :P
[16:22] <TopCat> jrib: thanks
[16:22] <securityxxxpert_> jrib:  how do I recreate that file?
[16:22] <securityxxxpert_> generate another key pair?
[16:23] <jrib> securityxxxpert_: well presumably you put your pub key inside it, is that true?
[16:23] <securityxxxpert_> jrib: the only authorized_keys I had was a folder I made of which I put the keyfile in
[16:23] <ratpoison> shcherbak, will this mess up my ibus config?
[16:23] <jrib> securityxxxpert_: so move your pub key up one level, delete the now-empty folder, and rename the pub key to "authorized_keys"
[16:24] <jrib> mongy: I meant sshd_config by the way
[16:24] <bazhang> armence, better to interrupt it at this point then try it again and see if it hangs and what error messages it generates
[16:24] <armence> bazhang, OK, thanks
[16:25] <bazhang> armence, you may have to fix broken packages; please watch carefully what steps (if any) it recommends you take
[16:25] <shcherbak> ratpoison: No idea, rather not. Acctually greek input is pretty ineresting subject, keep reading...
[16:25] <jrib> armence: did you press enter?  Sometimes I scroll up by mistake and so it seems like output is "stuck".  This is the easiest and least destructive troubleshooting step :)
[16:25] <mongy> jrib, http://pastebin.com/ZvZSMtc1
[16:25] <fisch246> jrib, haha i've done that
[16:25] <mongy> jrib, authorised key file is 644 and owned by me
[16:25] <ratpoison> shcherbak, and also a vital one for a greek person!
[16:26] <jrib> mongy: and parent directory has what permissions?
[16:26] <armence> jrib, I saw your advice and for one thing I did not launch the update from the console and for another there was not prompt. But I did hit enter just in case and well, that did not fix my problem
[16:26] <mongy> jrib, my user folder is 755 root:root
[16:26] <jrib> armence: this is in update-manager then?
[16:26] <armence> jrib, Yes
[16:27] <bazhang> ratpoison, do you have multiple languages configured on ibus?
[16:27] <jrib> mongy: make it owned by your user
[16:27] <esing> Hi,   !!! couldn't open("/dev/coa"): Device or resource busy  .... what does this mean?
[16:27] <mongy> hmm ok
[16:28] <securityxxxpert_> jrib:  then update the config file to say /etc/ssh/keys/securityxxxpert/
[16:28] <ratpoison> bazhang, how do I find that out?
[16:28] <bazhang> esing did you try the steps recommended a few moments ago?
[16:28] <jrib> securityxxxpert_: no, config file was correct
[16:28] <esing> i didnt get that info my browser broke down
[16:28] <bazhang> ratpoison, checking the ibus menu after running ibus-setup?
[16:28] <esing> bazhang pls paste log
[16:28] <bazhang> !1984 > esing
[16:29] <jrib> securityxxxpert_: (well ideally you would replace "securityxxpert" with %u so multiple users could have separate key files, but...)
[16:29] <mongy> jrib, still asking for it
[16:29] <jrib> heh at !1984 bazhang ...
[16:30] <bazhang> ratpoison, I ask because I use Mandarin and Japanese, (Japanese second) and ibus has been acting very buggy since the last round of updates
[16:30] <jrib> mongy: well what's happening? Is permission getting denied for your public key?
[16:30] <mongy> lemme do a -vvv
[16:30] <bazhang> ratpoison, ie Mandarin (the first language) is not longer launchable
[16:30] <novitololo> hi
[16:30] <bazhang> jrib, :)
[16:31] <esing> UBOTTU NOT WORKING

[16:31] <wildc4rd> Is there a useful 3D app (like solidworks) in Symantic?
[16:32] <shcherbak> ratpoison: does gt app can print (show) right character of paste? http://www.atm.ox.ac.uk/user/iwi/charmap.html
[16:32] <bazhang> wildc4rd, you mean synaptic?
[16:32] <jrib> wildc4rd: blender?
[16:32] <bazhang> wildc4rd, apt-cache search package for it ?

[16:32] <securityxxxpert_> let me start it up with the daemon bit
[16:32] <ratpoison> sorry guys, real life pkilling this chat, gotta go, you're all amazing for trying to help
[16:32] <TopCat> jrib: so because this is not a vfat or ntfs drive (it is ext4) i can't use umask and i should set the permissions like any other file?
[16:33] <esing> bazhang WHy dont you just repeat it ??
[16:33] <bazhang> esing it updates at the top of the hour or a little after, be patient
[16:33] <jrib> esing: what does "doesn't work" mean.  Loads fine on my browser
[16:33] <esing> http://irclogs.ubuntu.com/2011/01/29/%23ubuntu+1.html

[16:36] <hydester> hi.  i recently reinstalled maverick 64-bit on my machine and can't seem to get flash working.  i went to adobe labs to get 64-bit flash w/o luck (only 32-bit listed) and i do have flashplugin-nonfree installed.  any help would be appreciated
[16:36] <esing> just paste what you said earlier?
[16:36] <securityxxxpert_> jrib: is the $ suppose to be there?
[16:36] <esing> why making everything so complicated??

[16:37] <jrib> securityxxxpert_: I just mean replace $FILE with /etc/blah/blah
[16:37] <esing> bazhang Just say again what you wrote??? or did you wrote a book in here???
[16:37] <shcherbak> esing: try /lastlog esing ?
[16:37] <jondot> how can i add a feature to ubuntu server _after_ installation?
[16:37] <mongy> jrib, http://pastebin.com/dqm2hp6q
[16:37] <esing> shcherbak Iam not talking to you !
[16:37] <jrib> jondot: what feature?
[16:37] <sailor> it
[16:37] <pradeep> if i had 5gigo worth of bandwith and i want to update my ubuntu which is about 700mb how much bandwith would it take
[16:37] <jondot> jrib for example FTP, Samba, or Java server. i forgot to select them in the installation process.
[16:38] <shcherbak> esing: I know you just went /ignore
[16:38] <_____________xD> nb
[16:38] <securityxxxpert_> jrib:  firing up server again one sec. will paste output
[16:38] <esing> bazhang what is your problem?
[16:38] <bazhang> esing, please calm down and be civil
[16:38] <esing> bazhang why did you not just pasted it again?
[16:38] <securityxxxpert_> jrib: I think i'm in
[16:38] <esing> bazhang you refering me to a different website because of one sentence??
[16:38] <jrib> jondot: well you can just use apt (see ubottu) which is the standard way to install packages.  The thing you see during install is called "tasksel" and you can use that too which basically groups packages up into tasks
[16:38] <securityxxxpert_> let me verify
[16:39] <esing> bazhang You puzzle me honestly,
[16:39] <jondot> jrib: excellent!!
[16:39] <jrib> !apt > jondot
[16:39] <esing> this is really weird, because of one sentence you refer me to a website which safes the log and shows it in 1 hour *lol* ? Do you really think I will wait 1 hour to see what you wrote???
[16:40] <esing> this is really weird ..
[16:41] <karlito> Bonjour !
[16:41] <compdoc> amigo!!
[16:41] <compdoc> que pasa?
[16:41] <karlito> you're spanish ,

[16:42] <compdoc> no, I only speak english :)
[16:42] <securityxxxpert_> jrib: you're awesome
[16:42] <securityxxxpert_> thank you so much
[16:42] <jrib> securityxxxpert_: no problem
[16:42] <karlito> Oh ok :) I juste installed UBuntu but I've problem with sound
[16:42] <karlito> I can't watch any video
[16:43] <mongy> jrib, just to make sure i am not missing anything.  I set my auth key file location in sshd_config to /etc/ssh/{myuser}/  owned by me and with 644 perms and moved the file from my home .ssh folder to there.  Good so far?
[16:44] <podolec> as
[16:44] <podolec> das
[16:44] <podolec> d
[16:44] <jrib> mongy: no, that's not right.  sshd_config should have "AuthorizedKeysFile /etc/ssh/%u/authorized_keys"
[16:45] <mongy> jrib, yeah I meant that... I made the folder but used %u in the config
[16:46] <jrib> mongy: yes, that's right.  The folder should be 755 and owned by you, the authorized_keys file should be 644 and owned by you
[16:46] <smiley2> where is the Temp Internet Files at in Ubuntu ?
[16:46] <mongy> jrib, what do I paste?  output from the running ssh daemon or my attempt to connect

[16:47] <podolec> xchat-gnome
[16:47] <kephu> Can someone recommend me a mailing server that's reasonably quick to set up? I mostly need that for my php webdev work, if that clarifies anything
[16:48] <jrib> kephu: I like exim...
[16:48] <erUSUL> kephu: you can use a simple nullmailer like ssmtp
[16:48] <tilted> Hello guys!  I wonder how to change the sound that plays when I login.  Can't find any option to change it under Preferences.  I'm on 10.10.

[16:48] <smiley2> Anybody ?

[16:49] <nerdy_kid> tilted: yeah, im trying to find the file they use one sec
[16:50] <xangua> Diabeetus: sounds like you are using a no longer supported ubuntu
[16:50] <jrib> mongy: and you are sure the contents of /etc/ssh/dean/authorized_keys correspond to the private key you are sending?
[16:50] <Diabeetus> xangua: ubuntu 10.10 eclipse 3.5.2, so I dunno about no longer supported
[16:50] <smiley2> i guess ubuntu dont have a temp folder...
[16:51] <hakito> Can no one help me?

[16:51] <Diabeetus> isn't it encrypted anyway?

[16:51] <nerdy_kid> Jenk: /etc/passwd and /etc/shadow

[17:06] <jrib> !fixres > JoseeAntonioR
[17:06] <mongy> jrib, to be fair, I was told the same thing when I asked a few weeks ago, cant remember who it was..

[17:07] <trans> nothing is working, also why does system hangs when I start wudio chat
[17:07] <jrib> mongy: the wiki actually mentions it, though I'm going to make some edits now
[17:07] <linuxian> k4k : connector ?? im on desktop and agp

[17:08] <OY1R> how do i get a remote running program on my local screen with ssh

[17:08] <jrib> mongy: first time encrypted directories was introduced, me and someone else on here we're whacking our heads against the wall for a while trying to figure out why sometimes ssh "randomly" (in fact when user was already logged in) worked with pub keys
[17:08] <linuxian> k4k : oh its vga , sorry
[17:08] <linuxian> k4k : i got puzzled with something else
[17:08] <jrib> OY1R: the program is already running remotely?
[17:09] <OY1R> jrib, no
[17:09] <jrib> JoseeAntonioR: the bot should have sent you a message with information about your issue
[17:09] <k4k> linuxian: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/X/Config/Resolution
[17:09] <k4k> linuxian: have you checked there for help yet?
[17:09] <jrib> OY1R: just run « ssh -X » (or -Y, see « man ssh ») and then run your app as usual.  For example, « xclock »
[17:09] <OY1R> jrib, i'd like to start it and get the gui on the local screen, but i cannot remember the ssh command
[17:09] <linuxian> k4k : let me
[17:10] <OY1R> jrib, thanks
[17:10] <k4k> linuxian: ok check that and I gotta run, sorry better half is dragging me out to buy her something (bleh, shoppiing) I'll be on so feel free to /msg me and drop me a line, I'll be back later

[17:39]  * piper69 didn't think if i stop using ubuntu /linux for 1 year i will forget it :(
[17:39] <jrib> piper69: right, so choose a server from that page and install it :) Vino I think only connects to existing desktops, try tightvnc for example

[17:41] <axeur> hi
[17:41] <haskell> I use arch
[17:41] <jrib> Wyn: you need to purge the package that owns those files (easiest way)
[17:41] <haskell> doesnt work
[17:41] <coz_> ok I have to break here for lunch  be back later
[17:41] <Phase> go ask in the arch channel then ??
[17:41] <Phase> -_-
[17:41] <haskell> coz_ ???
[17:41] <Flannel> Wyn: You need to purge the packages.  Also, any sub-packages that may be controlling those folders instead (you can find out what package a file belongs to by dpkg -S /path/to/file)
[17:42] <bazhang> haskell, ask in the arch channel then
[17:42] <Phase> This is #ubuntu, not archlinux's channel.
[17:42] <Wyn> jrib, nope
[17:42] <haskell> bazhang Arch is no chat trafficc
[17:42] <Wyn> jrib, tried that, also reinstalled and apt-get --purge remove and re-install but nada
[17:42] <bazhang> haskell, it does not matter its offtopic here
[17:42] <Flannel> Wyn: Which package(s) and files are we talking about?
[17:42] <jrib> Wyn: you are not purging the correct package then.  Use dpkg -S to find the correct package.  What files are these?
[17:43] <haskell> bazhang ok, switch to channel linux with me
[17:43] <Wyn> Flannel, something called opennms , installed from a added source
[17:43] <Flannel> Wyn: Alright, which added source?
[17:43] <Wyn> jrib, yes I am
[17:43] <trans_> why does system hangs when I start audio conversation? any idea?
[17:43] <Wyn> Flannel, deb http://debian.opennms.org unstable main
[17:43] <soreau> haskell: It's #archlinux (not #arch)
[17:44] <Flannel> Wyn: and which directory is the offending one?
[17:44] <Wyn> jrib, but thanks for the advice
[17:44] <jrib> Wyn: what exactly does « dpkg -S /etc/whatever/you/are/trying/to/deleter » return?
[17:44] <Wyn> Flannel, /etc/opennms main configuration files
[17:44] <Flannel> Wyn: Alright, and what's the output of `dpkg -S /etc/opennms`
[17:44] <cihan_> can anybody help me? i have ubuntu 10.04 installed on a samsung laptop and i cant use my headphones (getting no sound from haedphones )
[17:45] <soreau> trans: Typically a system hang is caused by a kernel bug or a driver module, more likely than not, some kernel module causing the trouble
[17:45] <soreau> trans: Do you have any proprietary drivers in use?
[17:45] <pw-toxic__> hi! I'd like to grow my raid5 out 6*1TB with two 2TB drivins using 4 * 1TB partitions.. what do you think about this idea?
[17:45] <soreau> cihan_: Did you check in alsamixer?
[17:45] <pw-toxic__> Can i change my raid5 to a raid6?
[17:45] <cihan_> yes still no solution
[17:45] <Wyn> Flannel, tried that already returns opennms-common: /etc/opennms  installing that pacakge returns its already installed
[17:45] <cihan_> it seems working but i dont get any sound
[17:46] <Flannel> Wyn: right, you need to purge opennms-common, not just remove it.
[17:46] <soreau> cihan_: In alsamixer, use arrow keys to navigate and 'm' to toggle mute
[17:46] <cihan_> most probably it's bcs of alsa -- but i installed it again no sound yet
[17:46] <Wyn> Flannel, way ahead of you there :)  obviously my brain is non funtionall
[17:46] <soreau> cihan_: The other thing you can try is to uninstall pulseaudio
[17:46] <jrib> piper69: on https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VNC/Servers#tightvncserver it says to run "tightvncserver -nolisten tcp :1"
[17:47] <cihan_> it is not muted
[17:47] <piper69> so i installed and start vnc "tightvncserver -nolisten tcp :1" and setup the password
[17:47] <Wyn> Flannel, jrib many thanks
[17:47] <cihan_> soreau: ok i m trying to remove pulseudio
[17:47]  * jrib high fives Flannel

[17:48] <jrib> piper69: how are you attempting to connect?

[17:48] <piper69> using tight vnc client from my m$ box
[17:48] <cihan_> soreau: ok i removed so should i reboot?
[17:49] <cihan_> or is there a faster way to see the result?

[17:49] <soreau> ! pulseaudio | cihan_ Check here that you've done all the steps to remove it:
[17:49] <ikorack> well the thread that then links to a project
[17:50] <xil> when I use notify-send I don't get messages unless I add -u critical
[17:50] <thedark> hello everyone. I am running Ubuntu 10.10 and I am trying to figure out how to record my soundcards output (whatever comes out of my speakers)

[17:51] <Tetsuo55> hello, my batter fails to charge, its not hardware related, does anyone know how to trick the batter loader app into realising the batter is nearly empty?
[17:51] <soreau> thedark: Tried Applications>Sound and Video>Sound Recorder?
[17:51] <thedark> @soreau of course
[17:52] <soreau> xil: Are you running compiz with notifications plugin by chance?
[17:52] <ia9371> hello
[17:52] <xil> soreau: I'm running wmii, not Gnome, so no compiz
[17:52] <hakimsheriff> hi people
[17:52] <soreau> thedark: You might want to check your audio device settings in sys>prefs>Sound
[17:52] <piper69> jrib http://paste.ubuntu.com/559980/
[17:52] <Spodey> Tetsuo55: Just a guess - but this could be ACPI related.
[17:52] <ia9371> I keep on getting foomatic error
[17:53] <xil> soreau: this problem happened when I upgraded to wmii 3.9.2, so it could be related to wmii, but I thought it would be worth seeing if it could be fixed without reference to wmii
[17:53] <thedark> @soreau I just get silence, but it works with a mic
[17:53] <ia9371> why do I keep on gettting foomatic ERROR?!
[17:53] <soreau> xil: gnome is a desktop environment, not a window manager FWIW (the default wm in gnome is called metacity)
[17:53] <Tetsuo55> Spodey:  if so then how to fix? reboot wont help, only way to get to charge is shut down completely or boot into windows
[17:53] <soreau> thedark: You probably need to specify the output as an input. Not sure how you would do that without Jack though
[17:53] <thedark> Jack?
[17:54] <xil> soreau: I was under the impression that though wmii is just a window manager that it is also keeping ubuntu from running Gnome, but I guess not?
[17:54] <thedark> @soreau googling now
[17:54] <Spreadsheet> can ufw block websites by domain name?
[17:54] <xil> soreau: I have wmii running not instead of metacity or compiz, I am logging into wmii instead of "Ubuntu Default Desktop Environment", which I thought was Gnome
[17:54] <thedark> @soreau it looks complicated...
[17:54] <Spodey> Tetsuo55: Google has suggested removing the noapic option from the kernel bootline. You might want to see if there is a noacpi whilst you're there...
[17:55] <red2kic> Spreadsheet: Use /etc/hosts for that.
[17:55] <soreau> thedark: It's jack audio server. You'd likely want to install something like qjackctl to get it started
[17:55] <Spreadsheet> red2kic: k
[17:55] <jrib> piper69: rule out firewall issue
[17:55] <Tetsuo55> Spodey:  where can i find the bootline?
[17:55] <piper69> jrib not really there are both hard wired to same switch on same LAN
[17:56] <ia9371> VLC pulse audio is always running
[17:56] <ia9371> how do i stop this?!
[17:56] <baltazor> Hello , Where I can found nginx for ubuntu with perl&flv&upload&uploadprogress modules? Or with all avaible modules
[17:56] <ia9371> I want to alsa reload?!
[17:56] <soreau> thedark: It's pretty easy once you get the hang of it.. install qjackctl then close all other applications and start qjackctl from apps>sound and video> then click 'start'
[17:56] <thedark> @soreau will do, thanks
[17:56] <Spodey> Tetsuo55: In the grub configuration
[17:56] <soreau> thedark: After it's started, it shows you inputs and outputs so you can 'wire' them up how you want to
[17:57] <piper69> jrib disabled FW and still samething
[17:57] <Spodey> Tetsuo55 : You can try this temporarily by getting the grub menu up at boot and pressing "e" to edit the bootline
[17:57] <constl> How can I install JRE 5 on my 10.10 Ubuntu? Apt-cache doesn't seem to contain anything
[17:58] <jrib> !java | constl
[17:58] <haskell> hi
[17:58] <haskell> can someone help me with arch although here is ubuntu?
[17:58] <xangua> haskell: /join #archlinux
[17:58] <soreau> haskell: No. Ask in #archlinux.
[17:59] <jrib> haskell: no, ask in #archlinux
[17:59] <soreau> ! java | constl
[17:59] <piper69> i will boot everything
[17:59] <bazhang> constl, enable the partner repo
[17:59] <soreau> oops oO
[18:00] <bazhang> !partner | constl
[18:00] <Tetsuo55> Spodey:  this right? 'Ubuntu, with Linux 2.6.35-25-generic' --class ubuntu --class gnu-linux --class gnu --class os
[18:00] <Spodey> Tetsuo55 where did you get that from?
[18:00] <Tetsuo55> grub.cfg
[18:01] <Spodey> Tetsuo55 : Yeah, if that's the first one in the list. Any reference to apic /acpi in the lines below it?
[18:01] <Tetsuo55> none
[18:01] <Spodey> Probably at the end of the Linux /boot line

[18:02] <Kongstad> Hi, I have issue with installing Natty on VirtualBox 4.02.
[18:02] <jrib> Kongstad: #ubuntu+1 for natty support, #vbox for vbox support
[18:02] <Tetsuo55> Spodey: that link is everything until the entry for the next line
[18:02] <XOPBAT-GH> hi all, is somebody used a Pure-FTPd ?
[18:02] <Spodey> Tetsuo55 : reading now
[18:02] <Kongstad> Thanks
[18:03] <xil> can anyone here help me figure out my notification problem? I'm not getting notifications with notify-send unless I specify -u critical
[18:03] <rsh> let there be light and sooner then later rsh is in
[18:03] <xangua> xil: libnotify-bin installed¿
[18:03] <Spodey> Tetsuo55: Out of interest - have you tried unplugging the battery and plugging it back in whilst Ubuntu is loaded? Not a fix, just might help with diagnosis
[18:03] <ubun> to connect one pc to another how do i find the server name, host name and all that... (i found walkthroughs but i dont know where to find that info)
[18:04] <xil> xangua: yes, and this used to work, it recently stopped working
[18:04] <Tetsuo55> Spodey: yes i have, it had no effect
[18:04] <ia9371> hello
[18:04] <xil> xangua: I recently upgraded to wmii 3.9.2, which is what I think caused the problem to start, but I'm hoping it can be solved without reference to wmii
[18:04] <ia9371> im having lots of trouble with cups and filter
[18:04] <ia9371> what do I need to configur
[18:04] <rsh> how d u download torrent files
[18:04] <ia9371> Looks like my driver is in the database so everything should work
[18:05] <ia9371> you need a torrent client linux comes with it
[18:05] <ia9371> rsh you download it than you install it
[18:05] <Jemt> Hello guys. Why is Apport disabled in Ubuntu 10.10 (/etc/default/apport > enabled=0)
[18:05] <rsh> i have it but don't know how o use it
[18:05] <mark-t> I have a synaptics touchpad, but there's part of it where the cursor doesn't move when I move my finger; how can I fix this?
[18:05] <mark-t> or is it a hardware problem?
[18:06] <ia9371> more than likely a hardware problem
[18:06] <Fuchs> mark-t: you can fix this via synclient or the xorg.conf,
[18:06] <ia9371> try a live cd of another linux and see if it works on it
[18:06] <ia9371> if it doesnt than its probably a hardware problem
[18:06] <Fuchs> mark-t: since the driver has a setting for the active area, which is recognized wrong for some pads
[18:06] <mark-t> Fuchs: I've been running synclient -m 1; at least part of the area gives response
[18:06] <Spodey> Tetsuo55: I'm struggling to find any information that might help. You could experiment with adding noapic or noacpi to the bootline?
[18:07] <Fuchs> mark-t: then you should be able to adapt it with the Left|Right|Top|BottomEdge settings
[18:07] <mark-t> I tried updating the coordinates, but I didn't see any improvement
[18:07] <Spodey> Tetsuo55: What does acpi -V report?
[18:07] <Fuchs> hm
[18:07] <mark-t> and it's really weird; it's just a corner that doesn't work
[18:07] <ia9371> im having troubnle anyone have experience with cups filter/.!
[18:07] <Fuchs> which one?
[18:08] <mark-t> top right
[18:08] <Tetsuo55> Spodey: command not found
[18:08] <Fuchs> because sometimes corners are used for actions like mouse1, mouse2, mouse3
[18:08] <Fuchs> it should react anyway, though
[18:08] <mark-t> it's a pretty large chunk
[18:08] <mark-t> like it goes halfway across the top of the touchpad
[18:08] <megalinux> hi
[18:09] <Fuchs> mark-t: I'd recommend you contact the author of the synaptics driver and tell him with what model that happens
[18:09] <sweet> is that possible to create server and client in one machine using shell script..
[18:09] <Fuchs> mark-t: and maybe he can tell you what more information he needs or how to fix it
[18:09] <mark-t> it happened in Windows, too
[18:09] <constl> bazhang: I performed this command and when i tried to update the list i get a "Malformed line 59 in source list ...."
[18:09] <Spodey> Tetsuo55: apt-get install acpi
[18:10] <soreau> constl: Pastebin your sources.list file
[18:10] <linuxian> coz_, nobody does it like you do , they're all sleeping
[18:11] <sweet> no one
[18:11] <AbhiJit> how to view the utc time?
[18:11] <brontoeee> constl, and the line 59 says what?
[18:11] <linuxian> sweet, thanks for the correction
[18:11] <bullgard4>  '~$ gdm-restart; command not found.' What is the proper command-line command to restart gdm?
[18:11] <soreau> ! time

[18:11] <constl> soreau: http://paste.ubuntu.com/559987/
[18:12] <brontoeee> any guess on what might be used on older dell machine as embeded gpu? dimension 5150
[18:12] <piper69> jrib no go
[18:12] <soreau> constl: Looks like the last four lines might be wrong
[18:12] <Tetsuo55> Spodey: installing
[18:12] <constl> brontoeee:  L59 reads "deb http://archive.canonical.com/ partner"
[18:13] <ia9371> anyone have experience with cups filter?>!?!
[18:13] <jrib> piper69: i've only used it through ssh and I have to go in a bit so can't troubleshoot with you.  Try with ssh.  Otherwise, check log that the server command tells you about.  Ask here for more help if none of that gives hints
[18:13] <sweet> telnet is good command for connecting local host...is that any software in ubuntu like vnc viewer in window
[18:13] <xil> can anyone here help me figure out my notification problem? I'm not getting notifications with notify-send unless I specify -u critical
[18:14] <piper69> jrib i am using ssh
[18:14] <mark-t> ah, I see, when I press up in that corner, it reports the depth as being too low
[18:14] <sweet> so i can view other machine from my machine
[18:14] <jrib> piper69: you're following the vncoverssh instructions?
[18:14] <soreau> constl: Try inserting 'maverick' like this: deb http://archive.canonical.com/ maverick partner
[18:14] <soreau> constl: To each of the last four lines then save the file and try updating again
[18:14] <Zol> If I have several versions of django installed - how can I remove them?
[18:14] <jrib> piper69: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VNC?action=show&redirect=VNCOverSSH
[18:15] <soreau> Zol: Depends on how they were installed
[18:15] <kt_> what is the command to know all the available memory left in GB's ?
[18:15] <Spodey> Tetsuo55: Once you have it - pastebin the output when plugged in, and not plugged in
[18:15] <bullgard4> jrib: This workked. Thank you for your help.
[18:15] <Tetsuo55> Spodey:  and in a wierd twist of fate, it decides to charge the battery, maybe it needs to drop below a certain level for it to kick in, in any case it almost never fully charges it
[18:15] <Sandronline> Hi my friends
[18:15] <mark-t> hehe, googling "FingerLow" comes up with people whose last name is Fingerlow
[18:15] <kt_> i want to know how much is total space and how much is left
[18:15] <J_C> sweet: vncviewer
[18:15] <mark-t> wouldn't have guessed that
[18:15] <kt_> what command i must use
[18:15] <kt_> ?
[18:15] <soreau> kt_: Not really a ubuntu question, try ##linux

[18:15] <ia9371> usr/lib/cups/filter/foomatic-rip failed
[18:15] <constl> I guess it's missing a "maverick" right ?
[18:15] <J_C> kt: df -h
[18:15] <kt_> soreau:  if you know plz help me
[18:15] <soreau> kt_: But to see it in gui, try gnome-system-monitor
[18:15] <sweet> ok..
[18:16] <sweet> ok
[18:16] <Spodey> Tetsuo55: I think there are thresholds for that in the gconf-editor
[18:16] <Tetsuo55> Spodey: http://pastebin.com/grLyvbnP << thats with the battery in, currently loaded
[18:16] <jrib> bullgard4: no problem.  Note the general way is to just use « sudo service gdm restart » (that will work for both upstart and old sysv init jobs), but for upstart jobs you can just use initctl (which restart uses).  I know you're not afraid of documentation, so you can explore the man pages if you care :)
[18:16] <xil> can anyone here help me figure out my notification problem? I'm not getting notifications with notify-send unless I specify -u critical

[18:16] <bethdo97> I finally have managed to geet xbuntu running onn my son's computer.  However, when I try to shut down the computer I get a warning that a prograam is still running.  In the box that opens up it says unknown not responding.  How do I finid out what it is and make it close and not open.  I have rebooted several times and this keeps happening
[18:16] <G_o_o_> kt: cat /proc/meminfo
[18:16] <soreau> kt_: Or the program 'top' or 'htop' (the gui version of top)
[18:17] <Spodey> Tetsuo55: Looks to me like it's charging then! See what it says in 20 minutes?
[18:17] <OY1R> im now connected to my machine via ssh -x but if u try to run xchat i get this "(xchat:2452): Gtk-WARNING **: cannot open display: "

[18:17] <ia9371> bethdo97 have you isntalled any programs
[18:17] <Tetsuo55> Spodey: yeah, ill msg you when it stops charging ok?
[18:17] <soreau> kt_: Or, like G_o_o_ said - there's only a bunch of different ways to do it :)
[18:17] <Tetsuo55> Spodey: see if it reaches 100% or not
[18:17] <Spodey> Sounds good
[18:17] <kt_> ok
[18:17] <bethdo97> jusst done all of the updates to everything that it said I had to do

[18:18] <kt_> whats the difference b/w kubuntu and ubuntu ?
[18:18] <brontoeee> how would installer know my location without internet connection? magic?
[18:18] <jrib> piper69: although that page focuses on x11vnc, you can use the same setup with tight (but you will have to make appropriate modifications). You could just try x11vnc too since you just want something that works.  I don't know of any advantages/disadvantages between tight and x11vnc
[18:18] <J_C> kt: gnome or kde
 you can go to Administration --> system monitor
[18:18] <ia9371> to see which programs are running
[18:18] <ia9371> thats in GNOME ubuntu

[18:19] <ironman> ALGUIEN HABLA ESPAÑOL
[18:19] <soreau> kt_: They are desktop environments
[18:19] <ia9371> its just the GUI environment
[18:19] <J_C> Windows Managers
[18:19] <ia9371> the GUI is a little ddifferent
[18:19] <bullgard4> jrib: Thank you very much for your additional information.
[18:20] <kt_> ubuntu has no gui?
[18:20] <jrib> veovis_muaddib: x11vnc requires an existing X session on the server to connect to?
[18:20] <xil> can anyone here help me figure out my notification problem? I'm not getting notifications with notify-send unless I specify -u critical
[18:20] <sweet> it's related with linux

[18:20] <J_C> kt_ google them, plenty of info
[18:20] <soreau> ! gui | kt_
[18:20] <ia9371> ubuntu uses GNOME gui

[18:20] <bethdo97> ia9371: the only thing that it shows that is not sleeping is the gnome monittor
[18:20] <david__> español?
[18:20] <ia9371> just seee if you like KDE or Gnome
[18:20] <jrib> piper69: if that's true (that x11vnc requires an existing session) then you'll have to use tight :)
[18:20] <soreau> ! es | david__
[18:20] <jrib> veovis_muaddib: thanks
[18:21] <piper69> jrib this should be a simple task, install the server and run the client
[18:21] <sweet> a program of threading..i write misleading code..
[18:21] <J_C> kt_: you can install both and switch between the two
[18:21] <jrib> piper69: I agree
  I dont know it shoulld tell you when you shut down
 in windows it does
[18:22] <sweet> any one..?
[18:22] <kt_> htop shows MEM : 2343/3931
[18:22] <kt_> that means 2343 mb is used out of 3931?

[18:24] <nabukadnezar43> Fuchs: wow that's too much
 if you dont see any processes running I dont know what thje problem is

[18:25] <Aikar> ie irssi atm either :(
[18:25] <Spodey> Aikar: Tried shift+insert?
[18:25] <soreau> ia9371: Can you paste the line from lsusb for your printer here?
[18:26] <Aikar> that sorta pasted it, but also pasted something else, whats that speficially do Spodey ?
[18:26] <ia9371> soreau,  lsusb?

[18:26] <ia9371> my printer is not current plugged in
[18:26] <ia9371> im not at my house
[18:26] <Espenfjo> What could be wrong if network-manager/nm-applet does not use notify-osd but rather its own (ugly) message boxes (old style with ok, cancel, do not show again etc). notify-osd is running, and is working correct for eg. sound
[18:26] <AbhiJit> how to view the utc time?
[18:26] <Espenfjo> The system is a deboostrapped natty
[18:26] <Spodey> Aikar: It's just a shortcut for paste. I have found (strangely) that some stuff will only paste using that method.
[18:27] <brontoeee> is it possible to actually run gnome with 8megs of gpu ram?
[18:27] <ia9371> IS there any common changes that need to me made to configure CUPS or foomatic rIP?
[18:27] <ia9371> maybe reinstalling it
[18:27] <ia9371> change permissinos?!
[18:27] <Aikar> middle click pasted correctly
[18:27] <soreau> ia9371: You should come back when you're actually ready to address the problem. Any information you get while not at the machine is speculation at best

[18:28] <Spodey> Aikar: I wish I knew. I've run into the same problem myself.
[18:28] <Espenfjo> Oh my, sorry, just had to restart nm-applet after changing the dbus notification service to use notify-osd instead of notification-daemon.
[18:28] <soreau> Aikar: Try highlighting some text then right click in the terminal
[18:28] <ia9371> soreau,  there no way i can be connected to the printer
[18:28] <jarda_> Hi!
[18:28] <Aikar> soreau: has copy but no paste
[18:28] <soreau> ia9371: Then how are we supposed to help you?
[18:28] <ia9371> soreau, and connect to IRC at the same time
[18:28] <kt_> how much disk space is required for a good enough Linux Kubuntu sevrer? Is 100 GB Disk enough?
[18:29] <J_C> ia9371: have you tried to use the admin gui to set it up?
[18:29] <soreau> ia9371: Well you need to find a way to do that first because it's going to be difficult without the printer plugged in
[18:29] <ia9371> yeah at localhost:631
[18:29] <soreau> to get it working :P
[18:29] <ia9371> what are common problem with foomatic-rip and CUps
[18:29] <ia9371> like permissoins?!
[18:29] <soreau> ia9371: google might have an answer to that
[18:29] <J_C> that is one critical factor, the printer must be plugged in
[18:30] <ia9371> are they ever problems
[18:30] <soreau> ! enter | ia9371
[18:30] <ia9371> I have error logs that say NO Authentication
[18:30] <ia9371> NO authentication
[18:30] <AbhiJit> how to view the utc time?
[18:30] <ia9371> I can send paste error log
[18:30] <kt_> hello hello ?
[18:30] <Andyman555> @AbhiJit - date command
[18:30] <soreau> AbhiJit: What do you mean by that? utc time in ubuntu or current utc time of the world?
[18:30] <oCean> AbhiJit: date -u
[18:31] <J_C> Abhijit: is your system set up for local or utc, either way, use date
[18:31] <diphthong> when my computer comes back from Suspend, I would like it to ask a password.  How do I do that ?
[18:31] <AbhiJit> found. its date -u
[18:31] <soreau> ia9371: Plug the printer in and get the output of 'lsusb' and also 'dmesg|tail' then pastebin the output to ubuntu.pastebin.com then post the link here
[18:31] <kt_> how much space is required for a good enough linux box? is 100 GB enough ?
[18:31] <J_C> dipthong: System > Preferences > Screensaver
[18:31] <AbhiJit> thanks all oCean J_C soreau Andyman555
[18:32] <Andyman555> can anyone enlighten me as to whether or not it's acceptable practice to use /cat/mdstat to check raid synchronization?
[18:32] <rgb2477> hi to everyone
[18:32] <kt_> how much space is required for a good enough linux box? is 100 GB enough ?
[18:32] <bazhang> kt_, more than enough
[18:32] <rgb2477> I have a big trouble with my web server
[18:32] <kt_> ok
[18:32] <J_C> kt_ sure
[18:32] <Andyman555> kt, probably depends on what you're going to use it for
[18:32] <_`-`> rgb2477: elaborate?
[18:32] <kt_> i mean if i want to install network applications
[18:32] <bazhang> kt_, that would be huge
[18:32] <kt_> and alot of other things
[18:32] <kt_> im a home user
[18:32] <Rakshasa> hallo people
[18:32] <J_C> kt_ yes
[18:32] <kt_> i just want to learn linux
[18:32] <kt_> this is my 2nd day on Kubuntu
[18:32] <kt_> was using windows till now
[18:32] <FloodBot2> kt_: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
[18:32] <J_C> 100 GB is plenty for learning,
[18:33] <kt_> im using 150 GB :P
[18:33] <rgb2477> when I start it the server will load something which use all ram memory
[18:33] <_`-`> kt_: i've been running on 60<->80gb game and developer, you should be fine with 100gb ;)
[18:33] <soreau> kt_: Depends on what you mean by 'good' exactly. How many applications will you be installing? How much media will you horde? What is the main purpose of the linux box?
[18:33] <gunknown> hi. i am trying to run a vm in videobox and connect remitly to it. I read, that there is no rdp support in the ose, but vnc support
[18:33] <_`-`> game and web*
[18:33] <rgb2477> the server will not respond to any command
[18:33] <bazhang> kt_, you could have a very large separate /home partition and still enough room for a large root partition as well
[18:33] <rgb2477> I can only type "top" command
[18:33] <rgb2477> to see what running
[18:33] <Flannel> kt_: The majority of your space will be used for storage of stuff, not server specific things
[18:33] <J_C> kt_: you can learn with 100Mb, let alone 100Gb
[18:33] <gunknown> so, i start the headless erver and try to connect via vnc, but without success
[18:33] <rgb2477> and I see there some proccess from apache2
[18:33] <gunknown> any ideas?
[18:33] <rgb2477> which load to 100% my ram memory
[18:33] <kt_> ok
[18:34] <kt_> thanks im going to sleep now, can u suggest some good sites for learning linux for beginners like me?
[18:34] <wilsonzaizai-lyn> hmm
[18:34] <Aikar> rgb2477: service apach2 stop
[18:34] <soreau> gunknown: Some graphics drivers don't like headless. Are you certain X is actually running?
[18:34] <bazhang> kt_, the ubuntu manual
[18:34] <Aikar> apache2*
[18:34] <TopCat> do i need to change chown a mounted drive in order to allow users to rwx to it?
[18:34] <wilsonzaizai-lyn> www.omgubuntu.co.uk is nice
[18:34] <bazhang> !manual | kt_
[18:34] <rgb2477> Aikar
[18:34] <TopCat> i have the entire mount point set to chmod 777 and i still can't write to this drive
[18:34] <rgb2477> I have tried to remove apache2
[18:34] <J_C> kt_: you can look at the linux documentation project for one
[18:34] <rgb2477> when I connect into single-user mode on my machine
[18:34] <_`-`> learn by doing IMO :)
[18:34] <gunknown> soreau, for now i try it local, and here is X running
[18:34] <rgb2477> everything is working fine
[18:35] <soreau> gunknown: Does it work locally?
[18:35] <gunknown> rdsktop localhost ---> unable to connect
[18:35] <rgb2477> I've tried to set 000 permission to hosting files, I've tried to remove apache2 by typing apt-get remove apache2
[18:35] <gunknown> no
[18:35] <rgb2477> and the problem still persist
[18:35] <Andyman555> rgb2477 - what's the problem?
[18:35] <soreau> gunknown: Can you ping the box's ip ok?
[18:35] <rgb2477> andyman555: when I start my machine, some proccess start too which load my machine to 100%
[18:35] <rgb2477> these proccess use all my RAM memory
[18:36] <rgb2477> and the machine doesn't respond to any command
[18:36] <rgb2477> I can only log-in and type top command
[18:36] <gunknown> how do i know its ip adress?
[18:36] <soreau> rgb2477: What does top say the culprit is?
[18:36] <gunknown> locally i am using brigded network mode
[18:36] <soreau> gunknown:ssh into the headless box and run 'ifconfig'
[18:36] <gunknown> shall i change to nat?
[18:36] <rgb2477> soreau: can you wait till I restart my machine please?
[18:37] <aphrek> hi all - is it normal for an atom based laptop (running 10.04) to hit 100% cpu when opening firefox or any other browser for that matter
[18:37] <Andyman555> rgb can you start the computer in safe mode and install rcconf or sysv-rc-conf and take certain entries off of startup?
[18:37] <gunknown> how can i ssh into the box wiothout knowing its ip?
[18:37] <soreau> gunknown: You will have had to setup the headless box somehow at first
[18:37] <Spodey> gunknown: is this on your local network?
[18:37] <soreau> gunknown: How did you install the system to the headless box?
[18:38] <dheerosaur> \whois soreau
[18:38] <dheerosaur> fail
[18:38] <J_C> gunknown - you need to know the ip or name on your lan
[18:38] <gunknown> i followed the step by step guide on http://www.virtualbox.org/manual/ch07.html#vboxheadless
[18:38] <_`-`> aphrek: for more than 3-5 seconds?
[18:38] <gunknown> and starting in with the gui works fine
[18:38] <TopCat> anyone know about my permission issue for this mounted drive ?
[18:38] <J_C> ssh has to know where to connect
[18:39] <gunknown> but starting as headless i dont know how to connect
[18:39] <linuxian> TopCat, is it NTFS ?
[18:39] <J_C> gunknown: you have to have the local dns lan name or ip address
[18:39] <soreau> TopCat: What file system type is the drive?
[18:39] <TopCat> ext4
[18:39] <aphrek> _'-' - pretty much constant
[18:39] <nysosym> Hi there
[18:40] <gunknown> hmm
[18:40] <gunknown> i will run in the gui and read the ip
[18:40] <J_C> there ya go

The first os installed is w7, after this i installe skack and ubuntu with burg. Now i decide to reinstall w7 by deleting and rebuilding only the first two primary partitions. The problem than is that now the two

[18:45] <soreau> TopCat: Did you try running as your normal user: 'sudo chown -R $USER /mount/point' while the drive is mounted?
[18:45] <J_C> rgb:2477: next to each process you see the percentage memory and percentage CPU usage, which one is sucking up the memory?
[18:45] <aphrek> thanks I'll try
[18:45] <rgb2477> soreau: please help me
[18:46] <TopCat> i didn't use a chown command
[18:46] <TopCat> i used chmod

[18:51] <mrb__> intel*
[18:51] <soreau> mrb__: Do you see a wlan0 iface in the output of iwconfig?
 gunknown: you have to have the local dns lan name or ip address <--- you mean the ip adress of the host, right?
[18:51] <mrb__> Yes
[18:51] <rgb2477> soreau: there isn't an output when I write which www-data

[18:53] <induz> what sync means in iPod terms
[18:53] <_`-`> C4Cookies: look into samba share
[18:53] <rgb2477> soreau: everything is fine when I boot this machine in single-user mode
[18:53] <_`-`> can be a bit of a pain, but eventually works :P
[18:53] <induz> If I sync my iPod with a comp, would all my pictures on that iPodtouch be gone and pics from that comp would be loaded on my iPodtouch
[18:53] <mrb__> soreau, wlan0     Interface doesn't support scanning : Network is down
[18:54] <_`-`> smiley7: any editor. gedit most commonly
[18:54] <hummesse> Hi guys. I have trouble when i try to sudo apt-get dist-upgrade. It'll download some packages, but then halt when it comes to the kernel. Why? Btw. its 64 bit maverick
[18:54] <induz> please help me or suggest me where to look for a solution
[18:54] <smiley7> I Need a Gui
[18:54] <J_C> gunknown: the ip address of the host you are trying to connect to
[18:54] <rgb2477> soreau:are you there?
[18:54] <gunknown> yes, its my internal ip
[18:54] <gunknown> but i cannot connect
[18:54] <soreau> rgb2477: Can you show the output of 'ls -l /etc/apache2/suexec/www-data' ?
[18:55] <smiley7> Linux Mint has a Gui
[18:55] <soreau> mrb__: Do this: sudo ifconfig wlan0 up
[18:55] <gunknown> "unable to connect"
[18:55] <nabukadnezar43> a million wine files left on my system even after "sudo apt-get remove --purge"
[18:55] <soreau> mrb__: Then try scanning again
[18:55] <nabukadnezar43> that's interesting
[18:55] <gunknown> not more
[18:55] <J_C> gunknown: let's say you are on 192.168.1.1 and you are trying to connect to 192.168.1.2, then you enter ssh 192.168.1.2
[18:55] <rgb2477> soreau: the output is: -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 257 2010-04-19 14:59 /etc/apache2/suexec/www-data
[18:55] <soreau> hummesse: Check your repos. Do you have any unofficial? Does apt-get update work ok?
[18:56] <mrb__> soreau, SIOCSIFFLAGS: Operation not possible due to RF-kill
[18:56] <mrb__> thats what i got !
[18:56] <hummesse> apt-get update works
[18:56] <linuxian> which AGP 3d cards work with ubuntu maverick meerkat ?
[18:56] <bluefrog> Bluefever,  /home/sadm/.local/share/tomboy
[18:56] <bluefrog> Bluefever,  .local/share/tomboy
[18:56] <hummesse> i do have unofficial, yes. But that should not prevent the kernel from being downloaded
[18:56] <gunknown> i am 192.168.1.5 . I installed the vm locally and want to connect to it (locally)
[18:56] <soreau> sss: You can use the ubuntu auto partitioner.. how far along are you and what are you trying to setup?
[18:56] <linuxian> is there a link where i could check and buy one out of them ?
[18:56] <hummesse> it tries to download and then the speed just goes to 0
[18:56] <gunknown> so i try rdesktop 192.168.1.5
[18:56] <gunknown> but i am unable to connect
[18:57] <soreau> mrb__: Well that's strange. What does 'dmesg' have to say about all of this?
[18:57] <J_C> gunknown: you just connected to the local system, the one you are on, not the vm guest
[18:57] <_`-`> smiley7: i uh, don't think there's a GUI for a text file :p.. what's the problem with using a text editor?
[18:57] <van_> !german
[18:57] <gunknown> so, you think this is impossible?
[18:57] <J_C> what is the vm guest ip address?
[18:57] <hummesse> all my mirrors are ....ubuntu.com in sources.list. Is there other mirrors with the same content i could switch to?
[18:58] <rgb2477> soreau: are you there?
[18:58] <rgb2477> soreau: the output is: -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 257 2010-04-19 14:59 /etc/apache2/suexec/www-data
[18:58] <gunknown> i installed it locally (for testing purpose). it is also 192.168.1.5
[18:58] <nimrod10> !mirrors | hummesse
[18:58] <J_C> gunknown: you have two systems with the same ip address! That will not work!
[18:58] <linoge> hi
[18:59] <linoge> how to restore compiz initial settings? the ones you have with fresh install?
[18:59] <netwrkspider> hi
[18:59] <smiley7> with linux mint,there is a app called Mint Nanny,you just type in the website that you want to block....
[18:59] <hummesse> ill have a look nimrod10, thanks.
[18:59] <smiley7> and it adds it to the host file for you.
[18:59] <J_C> gunknown: you need to read up on tcp/ip and see how it works
[18:59] <Spodey> smiley7: I think there is a an app called Gnome Nanny that does the same thing
[18:59] <mrb__> soreau, Can i minimize the output to wlan0 only  ?!
[18:59] <rgb2477> soreau: I've typed: killall apache2
[18:59] <gunknown> but isnt the vnc server running on the host, and when connecting to this host-vnc it is routed to the guest?
[18:59] <rgb2477> soreau: and now everything is fine
[18:59] <hummesse> haha the link the bot just gave me is down. Great
[19:00] <smiley7> cool...i will check the repos...
[19:00] <abhishek_> AbhiJit,
[19:00] <Andyman555> if you want, you can try installing rcconf or sysv-rc-conf and then taking off rc.d entries - rgb
[19:00] <linoge> mmm, ready
[19:00] <AbhiJit> abhishek_, what happen??
[19:00] <J_C> I don't know, yhe vncserver may be running on the host, yes, but is it running on the guest and does the guest have a different ip address, that is the question
[19:00] <Angelic> Can someone tell me how do I go about fixing the problem where I am getting sound from my speakers and headphones at the same time?
[19:00] <rgb2477> soreau: please help me
[19:00] <linoge> now, why the nm-applet icon shows only when connected to something? until i connect to a network it doesn't show up
[19:00] <mrb__> soreau, iwl3945 0000:03:00.0: Detected Intel Wireless WiFi Link 3945ABG
[19:01] <mrb__> thats it
[19:01] <J_C> gunknown: your original question was how to connect with ssh. I would figure that out first.
[19:01] <J_C> and forget vnc for now
[19:02] <gabrieluk> Hello.:D Is there any free software for email marketing for ubuntu?
[19:02] <abhishek_> AbhiJit, hm
[19:02] <gunknown> hmm, i think this are two completely dfifferent technics?
[19:02] <abhishek_> AbhiJit, pm/
[19:02] <J_C> gunknown: Or a better question is, what exactly are you trying to do?
[19:02] <smiley7> No its Not in the Software Manager.
[19:02] <AbhiJit> abhishek_, see pm
[19:02] <gunknown> per ssh you really try to connect to the gust
[19:02] <ubun> is there a SAMBA room?
[19:02] <sss> Can someone help me install Ubuntu? I need some help in partitioning
[19:02] <van_> !ipv6
[19:02] <gunknown> and of course you need its ip for that
[19:03] <Angelic> Can someone tell me how can I fix the problem where I am getting sound from both my headphones and speakers?
[19:03] <gabrieluk> #ubuntu-uk
[19:03] <RLSiver> hey all im a noob to running servers I tried to install ubuntu 10.4 server onto my old desktop but after install was completed( successfully) all i get is my monitor not registering anything after initial bootup. and is there a different server that i should use being its my first time running one
[19:03] <gunknown> but, using vnc i think you establish the connection to the host, not the guest
[19:03] <AbhiJit> abhishek_, you cant pm me unless you are indentify to nickserv.
[19:03] <gunknown> so, two different things
[19:03] <J_C> gunknown: and you need different ip's. The host has one ip address and the guest has to have a different ip address
[19:03] <gunknown> yes
[19:03] <gunknown> and it has
[19:03] <J_C> As far as connections go it is not two different things
[19:04] <ubun> is WORKGROUP the same as SERVER and is SERVER the same as HOST
[19:04] <gunknown> i want to use a vm remotly by connecting it via vnc
[19:04] <smiley7> I am runing Ubuntu 10.4 Lucid
[19:04] <Angelic> Can someone tell me how can I fix the problem where I am getting sound from both my headphones and speakers?
[19:04] <owner> hi all
[19:04] <gunknown> so, i have to connect to the host ip adress
[19:04] <linoge> any reason why nm-applet would not show up until i'm connected to something?
[19:04] <smiley7> Gnome Nanny is Not in the Software Manager
[19:05] <gunknown> and this does not work when testing local
[19:05] <J_C> gunknown: what are you using for the VM host, KVM? XEN? or what? That will determine how to connect
[19:05] <bluefrog> smiley7, nanny is.  universe
[19:05] <gunknown> my local installed ubuntu is the host
[19:05] <smiley7> How do i get it ?
[19:05] <Spodey> smiley7: Perhaps it's the app called "nanny" ?
[19:06] <smiley7> im new to ubuntu
[19:06] <J_C> yes, I figured that, but is the guest running under KVM, XEN or???
[19:06] <Angelic> Can someone tell me how can I fix the problem where I am getting sound from both my headphones and speakers?
[19:06] <gunknown> hmm, i run it via VBoxHeadless --startvm ...
[19:06] <smiley7> no i typed that in software manager and it found nothing
[19:06] <bluefrog> smiley7, applications/ubuntu software center.  Search nanny
[19:06] <sss> Can someone help me install Ubuntu? I need some help in partitioning
[19:07] <Tetsuo55> Spodey: its almost finished charging, and now that i have that acpi thing i see a proper progressing of it to 100%, the notification icon is wrong though, it says its hardly loaded at all, and that its going to take hours to finish
[19:07] <smiley7> i did that ,its not there
[19:07] <J_C> I'm not familiar with VBox, but every VM has it's own requirenments to connect
[19:07] <J_C> for example, with KVM you use TLS, etc.
[19:07] <RLSiver> angelic does your headphone jack fit properly first and does your sound driver have a setting to allow that to happen
[19:07] <pradeep> sss, create three partitions /, /home and swap
[19:07] <Angelic> RLSilver: Yes
[19:08] <sss> pradeep, I need help in using GParted.
[19:08] <J_C> You need to go to a VBox howto and see how they say to connect.
[19:08] <pradeep> sss,  your swap should be twice your RAM Size
[19:08] <Angelic> RLSilver: I have Intel HDA
[19:08] <bluefrog> smiley7, system/admin/update manager/settings/ubuntu software.  make sure universe is checked
[19:08] <gunknown> yeah, it should work quite easy according to the tuts
[19:08] <gunknown> i will have another look again
[19:08] <pradeep> sss, you have to be careful when using that tool gparted
[19:08] <smiley7> ok,,hold on..
[19:08] <gunknown> but thanks so far anyway
[19:09] <J_C> good luck, I wish I could help with VBox, but I use kvm
[19:09] <induz> is there anyway i can automount my Ipodtouch on Lucid Lynx
[19:09] <sss> pradeep, I forget to mention I want to dual boot into windows XP
[19:09] <J_C> sss: if you want to dual boot, set up the xp box first then the linux system, that is the easiest way, automatic
[19:10] <induz> sss, I have done dual boot Ubuntu with Xp... u have to install Xp first then Ubuntu
[19:10] <bluefrog> smiley7, http://www.liberiangeek.net/2010/08/install-nanny-parental-control-system-ubuntu-10-04-lucid-lynx/

[19:10] <sss> pradeep, I have windows already installed
[19:10] <pradeep> sss, then u have to setup xp first
[19:10] <J_C> sss: If you are new to linux and set up the linux box first, it will take a lot of reading and setup time
[19:11] <pradeep> sss, okay do you have a partition left for linux
[19:11] <induz> what is automount and how can I install it
[19:11] <induz> what is the channel for Ipod??
[19:12] <J_C> induz: automont is easy to install, not as easy toi setup. There are howto's on the web
[19:12] <sss> pradeep, In the liveCD, install I only have 2 option: erase entire drive (don't want cause I want to keep windows) or specify partition manuallt
[19:12] <Angelic> Can someone tell me how can I fix the problem where I am getting sound from both my headphones and speakers?
[19:12] <induz> J_C, i want to automount my iPhonetouch
[19:13] <_`-`> click the speaker icon in the top-right -> sound preferences -> select output device
[19:13] <_`-`> that should work
[19:13] <J_C> http://tldp.org/HOWTO/Automount.html
[19:13] <bonjoyee> sss: select manual partition...
[19:13] <_`-`> otherwise, sometimes you can just turn your speakers off and the headphones will still work.
[19:13] <sss> pradeep, I don't have an option to automatically dual boot
[19:14] <sss> bonjoyee, I have selected manual partition, but I need help creating partition for linux (GParted?)
[19:14] <J_C> induz: Is that usb? should happen automatically. If not, I would google it
[19:14] <bonjoyee> sss: what is you current partition layout?
[19:14] <pradeep> sss, when you install ubuntu on the partition left grub should automatically pick the windos xp
[19:14] <induz> J_C, i am trying to offload my pics from my iPhonetouch
[19:15] <Angelic> '-': I tried that.. STILL don't do anything.. they both STILL work together
[19:15] <sss> bonjoyee: You mean what I see in Gparted?
[19:15] <J_C> indux: no iphone here, but if it is usb connected, then it should mount automaiccally already, nothing should be needed
[19:15] <bonjoyee> sss: open a terminal..type sudo fdisk -l  and pastebin the output
[19:16] <induz> J_C, yes usb drives get mounted automatically but why not iPhone
[19:16] <RLSiver> angelic try this found it on ubuntu support http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=806620

[19:22] <magicianlord> what do you need for iphone touch?
[19:22] <magicianlord> software to run it?
[19:22] <motz> I'm tryibg to install ubuntu on my pc notebook
[19:22] <jeeves_moss> J_C, I'm trying to get it ported to my HTC HD2
[19:22] <digirak> hi guys
[19:23] <motz> I just installed the cd, which couldn't connect though
[19:23] <digirak> i need some help with a broken compiler
[19:23] <RLSiver> so anyone know why after installing 10.4 ubuntu server succesfully i would have nothing coming on my monitor after reboot?
[19:23] <J_C> jeeves_moss: don't know
[19:23] <jeeves_moss> J_C, I know, I'm just saying that people are trying

[19:23] <magicianlord> i find 10.10 more stable than 10.04
[19:24] <sss> bonjoyee, my D: drive is about 70GB and I don't use any of that
[19:24] <J_C> jeeves_moss: I must have missed part of the conversation, I keep getting reset here :-)
[19:24] <bonjoyee> ssh: so you want to install ubuntu on it?
[19:25] <jeeves_moss> J_C, lol, I do that whenever the wife is around!  LOL
[19:25] <J_C> ha ha
[19:25] <sss> bonjoyee, I want to make the D; partition smaller to make room for Ubuntu
[19:25] <ubun> does anyone know how to reset SAMBA to default... i dont know what i did to it and its blank
[19:25] <smiley7> ok,i got Nanny installed....Thanks for your Help :)
[19:26] <smiley7> you guys are the Best:)
[19:26] <J_C> ubun - maybe just reinstall, that is probably your best bet if you are not familiar with config
[19:26] <bonjoyee> ssh: i think thats difficult as your hdd already seems to have 4 primary partitions:(
[19:26] <ubun> J_C: ok let me try
[19:26] <Angelic> RLSilver: When I try the configuration and editing the alsabase file
[19:26] <bonjoyee> sss: see the /dev/sda1.....4 in that output?
[19:27] <J_C> bonjoyee: you are right. You can only have 4 primary partitions on a drive
[19:27] <Angelic> it tells me: "Could not find the file /ect/modprobe.d/alsa-base."
[19:27] <digirak> ping
[19:27] <digirak> anyone here who can helpm me
[19:27] <sss> bonjoyee, Yes. both on terminal and GParted
[19:27] <ubun> is there a command to uninstall... install is (sudo apt-get install samba
[19:27] <J_C> with 4 primaries, you cannot then add an extended
[19:27] <piper69> how can i find all vnc servers installed in my box and remove them completely
[19:27] <RLSiver> hmm not sure angelic are you running the same ubuntu version
[19:27] <bonjoyee> sss: you could use the entire partition though:)
[19:27] <bonjoyee> sss: for ubuntu!
[19:27] <Angelic> Running 9.10
[19:28] <magicianlord> Angelic: what do you need
[19:28] <Angelic> 10.04* my bad
[19:28] <J_C> "man apt-get" apt-get remove
[19:28] <sss> bonjoyee, what about overriding sda2 which is D: on windows?
[19:29] <bonjoyee> sss: you mean overwriting?
[19:29] <rgb2477> anyone can help me with my web server?
[19:29] <sss> bonjoyee, Yes, I mean I don't need that for Windows.
[19:29] <rgb2477> when apache2 start, some proccess named: www-data starts and use all my ram memory
[19:29] <bonjoyee> sss: yeah...thats possible and the easiest way to do it..
[19:30] <sss> bonjoyee, How do I do that?
[19:30] <RLSiver> angelic did you go through all the comments too on that thread?
[19:30] <bonjoyee> sss: select manual partition on ubuntu installer, then select the proper part, and edit its options...
[19:30] <RLSiver> if not i would do that and see if there are other hints in there
[19:31] <bonjoyee> sss: be very careful and make sure you select the right partition!
[19:31] <sss> bonjoyee, For Ubuntu I need 2 partitions, right? for storage and swapping?
[19:31] <RLSiver> alright all suggestions on which server os i should use
[19:32] <bonjoyee> sss: once you do that ..it should be a cakewalk..
[19:32] <asdfmoo_> more is recommended, to divide /home and / and optionally also /tmp or /var and whatnot
[19:32] <bonjoyee> sss: how much RAM?
[19:32] <sss> bonjoyee. good question, How do I check?
[19:32] <y6> hi can some1 msg me 4 cups printing help with HP printer ?
[19:33] <bonjoyee> sss: free -m
[19:33] <RLSiver> so is 10.10 easier to run as a server?
[19:33] <ronald_> lol
[19:33] <sss> bonjoyee, Right now I am using Ubuntu with LiveCD
[19:34] <y6> some1 here with knowledge about linux printing?
[19:34] <bonjoyee> sss: run "free -m" in a terminal
[19:34] <sss> bonjoyee, Mem: total: 993 Is this my RAM?
[19:34] <buntuNetwork> mythubuntu livecd doesn't run xbmp

[19:35] <buntuNetwork> has anyone tried elive?
[19:35] <bonjoyee> sss: thats 1GB right?
[19:36] <sss> bonjoyee, I do think I have 1GB RAM
[19:36] <Matthias__> I grabbed images via wget, they are named  foobar.jpg.1  .2 .10 .11 .12 .100 .120 .1000 etc  | how can I quickly rename them to jpg.0001 .0002 .0010 .0012 . 0100 .0120   ?
[19:36] <bonjoyee> sss: also do you use hibernation?
[19:37] <sss> bonjoyee, Do you mean in Windows?
[19:37] <y6> @ matthias: code: rename -v 's/\.htm$/\.html/' *.htm
[19:37] <piper69> is this wrong "sudo apt-get remove vino --purge"
[19:37] <bonjoyee> sss: do you plan to use it in ubuntu?
[19:37] <Matthias__> y6: thanks!
[19:37] <y6> np
[19:37] <RLSiver> so no help on choosing a server to run?
[19:37] <sss> bonjoyee, Yes.
[19:37] <bullgard4> I need disk space on my hard disk. I am going to delete /dev/sda5 altogether. Thus using Nautilus I emptied /dev/sda5 of all directories but it cannot delete .Trash-1000. Should I use 'sudo rm -r /.Trash' in that directory?
[19:38] <J_C> RLSiver: What is your objective?
[19:38] <y6> some1 here who can tell me how i raise freakin dpi @ cups?
[19:38] <y6> google hates me
[19:38] <bonjoyee> piper69: the --purge comes before the package name!
[19:38] <bonjoyee> sss: then you have to have as wap partition..:(
[19:38] <Matthias__> hmm
[19:38] <Matthias__> y6: I think  rename -v 's/\.jpg$/\.jpg/' .jpg
[19:38] <sss> bonjoyee, 3 partitions total?
[19:38] <Matthias__> didn't do anything
[19:39] <J_C> y6: have you tried using the Admin Printers tool?
[19:39] <y6> yeah was just copy paste:p
[19:39] <RLSiver> i want to run a home server for linking comps with pics and music and try and run a minecraft server
[19:39] <bonjoyee> sss: no..minimum 2..one for / and other for swap
[19:40] <y6> i need 2 manipulate the ppd but do not exactly know what to do afterwards its not changing anything if I @ 1200 dpi lines
[19:40] <sss> bonjoyee, For hibernating do I need another one except / and swap ?
[19:40] <J_C> RLSiver: just about anything would do, even another ubuntu desktop, then just run the services you want. By default the Ubuntu server has no gui which is a little awkward for newbies
[19:40] <bonjoyee> sss: no..the swap is used for that
[19:40] <Pp|quish> Someone who is using audacious q me pls
[19:41] <sss> bonjoyee, So twice the RAM for swap will be enought also for hibernating?
[19:41] <bullgard4> Pp|quish: I beg your pardon?
[19:41] <J_C> RLSiver: Personally I use a Fedora14 at my house for this and a separate ubuntu desktop for day-to-day stuff
[19:42] <Pp|quish> huh?
[19:42] <bonjoyee> sss: thats not the issue here..where will you create the swap partition?
[19:43] <rickh> jake: Yes, that is why I need to know what wireless chip that laptop has it, it could be you need to install an extra driver.
[19:43] <sss> bonjoyee, You mean my problem is that I already have 4 partitions?
[19:43] <gucko> hi guys
[19:44] <bonjoyee> sss: also ubuntu takes  mere 20-40 secs to boot fresh...and no guarantees hibernation works on all systems!
[19:44] <digirak> ping
[19:44] <J_C> sss: a hard drive may only have 4 primary partitions, or 3 + an extended partition
[19:44] <magicianlord> J_C: why
[19:44] <bonjoyee> sss: yes!
[19:44] <gucko> I removed Windows, but it still appears in GRUB in booting. How to remove it from GRUB so Ubuntu loads automatically?
[19:44] <digirak> guys can somone help me out here
[19:44] <magicianlord> digirak: what is your trouble, friend?
[19:44] <bonjoyee> gucko: sudo update-grub
[19:45] <Pp|quish> Can someone explain me how to record internet radio using audacious?
[19:45] <gucko> bonjoyee: grub2 or grub?
[19:45] <anant> can any one suggest me how to package a windows application in deb package so that it could be run on wine ,example picasa by google.
[19:45] <bonjoyee> gucko: ubuntu will take care of that...
[19:46] <sss> bonjoyee, Why can't I use more than 4 partitions if I have enough space?
[19:46] <bonjoyee> gucko: what version of ubuntu..
[19:46] <J_C> magicianlord: that is the way drives are designed. 3 primaries and 1 extended can give you many more total partitions hda6, etc. but if you have 4 primaries, that's all you get
[19:46] <gucko> bonjoyee: 10.10
[19:46] <bonjoyee> gucko: ok..then fire that..
[19:46] <magicianlord> J_C: designed? in the hardware?
[19:47] <magicianlord> is there any disadvantage to making a virtual partition or all virtual ones
[19:47] <J_C> magicianlord: yes: it's a standard. physical vs logical partitions
[19:47] <gucko> bonjoyee: 2?
[19:47] <allquixotic> J_C, magicianlord: if you use an EFI GUID Partition Table instead of the 1980s-era IBM partition table format, you can have many, many more partitions on your drive, without needing to posit the notion of an "extended partition".
[19:47] <milan> ahoj
[19:47] <J_C> 4 primaries are 4 physical partitions
[19:47] <allquixotic> Using a GUID Partition Table (GPT) is just a matter of formatting it onto the drive with something like gparted. It's pure software, nothing to do with hardware.

[19:47] <bonjoyee> gucko: update-grub and update-grub2 will yield the same result..
[19:48] <J_C> that's all you get. You usually can have up to a combined total of 256 physivcal andlogical
[19:48] <J_C> meaning primaries and extendeds
[19:48] <digirak> hi magicianlord
[19:49] <J_C> an extended partition is your 4th physical
[19:49] <digirak> my issue is my gcc compiler is not compliing cmake
[19:49] <digirak> and the cmake compilation tells me its a broken compiler
[19:49] <digirak> i have no idea why
[19:49] <allquixotic> digirak: Why do you need to compile cmake? You can install it from the Ubuntu repositories.
[19:50] <magicianlord> allquixotic: so it's clean
[19:50] <digirak> oh is it?
[19:50] <sss> bonjoyee, I have to go now. Thank you for your help. I'll try later. Bye!
[19:50] <bonjoyee> sss: i am using linux without swap for 4 years..but then that depends on what you do with it, also i have 2GB RAM,..
[19:50] <digirak> either way i want to repair my broken gcc
[19:50] <digirak> how do i do that
[19:51] <ujrip> I am installing Desktop Ubuntu on my laptop, I am running a live CD right now but a wired connection does not work. Any ideas?
[19:51] <jarsquatterdotco> is it possible to mount a bin\cue (CBT nuggets software for XP) image and run it in Wine?
[19:51] <J_C> ujrip: more info... what kind of ethernet?
[19:51] <pradeep> bonjoyee, dont you think it is nice include swap in an installation
[19:51] <k4k> linuxian: did you ever get the resolution thing solved?
[19:51] <ujrip> What do you mean J_C?
[19:51] <sss> bonjoyee, I have to go now, Bye! thank you very much!
[19:52] <jarsquatterdotco> ujrip - do you see link lights on your ethernet port?
[19:52] <J_C> card mfg?
[19:52] <J_C> linksys? intel? what?
[19:52] <digirak> does anyone want the pastebin of the error
[19:52] <ujrip> realtek
[19:52] <bonjoyee> pradeep: as i said..depends on the usage..eg the newer systems with 4GB RAM will seldom swap!
[19:52] <ujrip> jarsquatterdotco: the light on the router lights up for the connection slot, but my computer never connects.
[19:53] <dr_Willis> jarsquatterdotco:  its possible.
[19:53] <dr_Willis> !iso
[19:53] <J_C> realtek should work out of the box, at least it does on mine, depending on the model. I believe ubuntu has a hardware compat guide. You could look there
[19:53] <pradeep> bonjoyee, i just thought it was proper to include a swap partition normal practise
[19:54] <dr_Willis> pradeep:  it is proper
[19:54] <jarsquatterdotco> ujrip - is it a new laptop?  or like 5 yrs old?
[19:54] <J_C> pradeep: it depends on usage and how much mem you have. For example, on my sys with 8GB ram, I never touch swap, unless I ire up a kvm guest
[19:54] <ujrip> jarsquatterdotco, http://support.gateway.com/s/Mobile/2008/Tempest/1015084R/1015084Rnv.shtml
[19:54] <jarsquatterdotco> so once it is mounted on my desktop I should be able to run in the WIne program loader?
[19:54] <ujrip> its an older version of that
[19:54] <RLSiver> thanks JC
[19:54] <Chr|s> how do I remove (Mail, Compose New Message and Contacts) from the indicator applet? I already removed Evolution. I only want Thunderbird to show up.
[19:55] <J_C> RLSiver: no prob
[19:55] <dr_Willis> jarsquatterdotco:  you may need to use the cli.
[19:55] <dr_Willis> wine /foo/foo.exe
[19:55] <jarsquatterdotco> but am I on the right track?
[19:55] <ujrip> jarsquatterdotco, the version i have is http://www.gateway.com/systems/product/529667865.php
[19:55] <jarsquatterdotco> does Wine need anything else installed?
[19:56] <dr_Willis> jarsquatterdotco:  yes.
[19:56] <dr_Willis> wine needd nithing else
[19:56] <pradeep> J_C, i see
[19:56] <mongy> jrib, interesting..... I have that laptop in the other room, its booted up to login screen, it has encrypted homes, and I just ssh'd into it using my key and did an ls and it displays the files/folders you see when your home is still encrypted...
[19:56] <dr_Willis> but the exe might
[19:56] <bonjoyee> pradeep: what RAM do you have anyways?
[19:57] <milen8204> How i can  hear my microphone trough speakers ?
[19:57] <J_C> pradeep: I also have a netbook with no swap but lots of mem. I only use it for lightweight stuff and I wanted as much flash mem as possible for storage
[19:57] <jarsquatterdotco> ujrip - I had similar issues...I had to use the win XP diver, but install it with ndiswrapper
[19:57] <pradeep> bonjoyee, i have 4gb of ram and swap of 8gb
[19:57] <jarsquatterdotco> thanks
[19:57] <bonjoyee> pradeep: have you ever seen it swap?
[19:57] <jarsquatterdotco> also, will any program work in wine?
[19:58] <bonjoyee> pradeep: its a must ..if you hibernate though!
[19:58] <J_C> pradeep, rule of thumb nowadays since mem is cheap and usually people have at least a GB is 1.5 times RAM for swap
[19:58] <pradeep> bonjoyee, it does not move at all
[19:59] <pradeep> bonjoyee, J_C so if want to build an ubuntu server it wont be so necessary then
[20:00] <J_C> pradeep: depends on what you are doing with it. Usually for a server that will never hibernate, I use an equal amount... just in case :-)
[20:00] <dr_Willis> live cds csn use swap alzo.  handy.
[20:00] <gucko_> guys I updated grub, now I don't see Windows in the list, but I want Ubuntu to start automatically without grub
[20:00] <craiggles> hey guys
[20:00] <gucko_> I meant, without timer
[20:01] <J_C> dr_Willis: true
[20:01] <gucko_> how to do that please?
[20:01] <bonjoyee> gucko_: thats not possible..ubuntu needs  a bootloader to start...
[20:01] <craiggles> my tv was my monitor and i had 1080p, now i have a monitor as my monitor and the screen is just black when ubuntu loads, it defaults to 1080p, how can i fix this?
[20:01] <J_C> grub is your bootloader. all OS systems need a bootloader
[20:02] <gucko_> bonjoyee: no, i meant to remove the timer, not grub
[20:02] <J_C> grub.conf in your /boot directory
[20:02] <J_C> setting is there
[20:02] <bonjoyee> gucko_: sudo nano /etc/default/grub
[20:03] <bonjoyee> then change timeout to 0
[20:03] <J_C> you should have at least a short time-out just in case you need to modify something though
[20:03] <bullgard4> rsnapshot [Maverick] terminates apparently succesful but does not tell so as it did in the past. Only a normal prompt appears. What is the reason?
[20:03] <J_C> single user mode, etc
[20:03] <_jesse_> J_C: You can always hold shift or whatever to bring up the menu
[20:03] <J_C> true
[20:03] <gucko_> bonjoyee: any idea how to remove the timer?
[20:04] <J_C> I give a 3 sec timeout and then hit tab, barely notice the 3 secs
[20:04] <dr_Willis> !grub2
[20:04] <_jesse_> gucko_: just comment out that line
[20:04] <craiggles> so yeah, summaring, my auto res is 1080p i have a regular monitor that doesnt support 1080p so the screen is just black on load up, what do?
[20:05] <dr_Willis> !fixres
[20:06] <dr_Willis> those guides may be a little old
[20:08] <Alex__K> My system keeps resuming instantly whenever I try to put it into suspend - Is there any way to check what's making it wake up? The logs show it successfully entering suspend and then coming out immediately (before the power LED can turn off).
[20:08] <J_C> wake-on-lan?
[20:08] <J_C> possibly?
[20:08] <_jesse_> Alex__K: just a guess, but maybe network traffic
[20:08] <_jesse_> what J_C said
[20:09] <J_C> :-)
[20:09] <J_C> that's usually the culprit
[20:09] <Alex__K> So I'd test that by unplugging the ethernet cable and trying to suspend it again?
[20:09] <faucet> say, im new to linux, (day 2), and i have made my whole terabite into a linux partition,  i  am looking to re-install windows for games and wutnot, anyone recommend a good partition manager?
[20:10] <Alex__K> faucet: gparted
[20:10] <J_C> or check wake-on-lan settings. If you are using dhcp, unplugging may not help
[20:10] <faucet> ty
[20:10] <dr_Willis> faucet:  gparted live cd
[20:10] <erik___> hey, i'm trying to install ubuntu but on the keyboard layout part my "forward" and "back" options are greyed out even though i have selected an option
[20:11] <faucet> ok, thanks
[20:11] <magicianlord> why does formatting a drive work quickly and properly in usb-creator but not disk utility?
[20:11] <bigmahatma> hello. I've got a amd k325 processor (on a dell m101z) and I'm running 10.04. I'd like to downclock the CPU, how can I do it?
[20:11] <brontoeee> having trouble with external usb wireless thingy, http://paste.ubuntu.com/560014/ , it sees the networks, but i keep geting error: wrong password, clues?  (d-link dwl-g122)
[20:12] <Alex__K> If my issue was with wake-on-lan, would it also be a problem when I hibernate the system and when I'm in Windows?
[20:13] <J_C> depends on how windowsis setting the card on boot-up possibly?
[20:13] <NfNitLoop> Hmm.  I've added a 'deb file:/' line pointing to my loopback-mounted kubuntu .iso is and done an apt-get update (which found it)...
[20:13] <NfNitLoop> but I'm installing kubuntu-desktop now and it's still downloading everything over HTTP.
[20:14] <Alex__K> It has the same problem when I hibernate it, but both sleep and hibernate work fine in Windows
[20:14] <J_C> There is a bug with the latest ubuntu install and it automatically goes to the gb ubuntu site
[20:14] <erik___> hey, i'm trying to install ubuntu but on the keyboard layout part my "forward" and "back" options are greyed out even though i have selected an option
[20:14] <J_C> I just went through all that and unfortunately even over a network it will not use a local trepository
[20:15] <J_C> Th bug is listed on Ubuntu's site
[20:15] <gucko_> _jesse_: I commented the line, and updated grub, but it still displays the timer! it's like 4 seconds timer
[20:15] <J_C> Lucid is no prob, but maverick is
[20:16] <_jesse_> gucko_: hrm :/ try setting it to 0
[20:16] <magicianlord> J_C: what bug
[20:16] <_jesse_> gucko_: you can also pastebin your config if you like
[20:16] <J_C> It's listed atUbuntu, the install image does not pick the repo you tell it to pick but goes to the GB ubuntu site
[20:17] <J_C> as in great britain
[20:17] <magicianlord> J_C: even if you change it later in synaptic?
[20:17] <magicianlord> or modify the apt source file
[20:17] <YouKay> Is there any code or app for ubuntu, such that one can join IRC (only a particular channel of a network) easily, without customizing first? I wish to help the people of my neighbourhood, and would like to ensure all of them joins a specific channel for testing first. :)
[20:17] <J_C> no, only on installs. It will not pick the closest repo or even a locally set up repo. Once installed, no prob
[20:18] <J_C> and only maverick
[20:18] <magicianlord> J_C: oh ok. i didnt know about that. at least it's not a critical bug or something that affects sound or video
[20:18] <J_C> I spent a couple of days with people at HP troubleshooting this issue
[20:18] <WeThePeople> what do you guys think, a dual core 1.3GHz or a i7  1.8GHz with hyperthreading?
[20:18] <magicianlord> J_C: why would you talk to them?
[20:19] <magicianlord> WeThePeople: for what purpose
[20:19] <J_C> no, it's only the initial installation repository choice
[20:19] <NfNitLoop> YouKay: there's a web chat for FreeNode at webchat.freenode.net, I think, which you can create a URL to.
[20:19] <magicianlord> J_C: then it doesnt really matter much, if you can fix it after the fact. ubuntu 11.04 is around the corner. the iso for 10.10 will likely not get updated now
[20:19] <WeThePeople> magicianlord, gaming and general use
[20:19] <magicianlord> i7, clearly
[20:19] <pradeep> i was on 10.10 before i had to downgrade to 10.04 considering it is a LTS Distro too
[20:19] <vooze> Any idea on how i find a driver for Network Card 	Integrated 10/100/1000 Gigabit Ethernet LAN ?? ubuntu 10.10 .. :)
[20:20] <J_C> http://linuxcoe.sourceforge.net/
[20:20] <YouKay> NfNitLoop: Oh, thanks
[20:20] <Alex__K> Ok - I ran "sudo ethtool -s eth1 wol d" and it doesn't seem to have fixed the issue
[20:20] <WeThePeople> magicianlord, thx
[20:20] <ghostknife> My routine 20 mount scandisk takes like 2 hours for 500GB. the first 70% seems to be the standard scan, as it takes as long as I'm used to. then last 30% seems to be like a full bad block scan. anyone experienced this? it's only since I install 10.04
[20:21] <Alex__K> Is that the correct way to disable wake-on-lan?
[20:21] <magicianlord> no problem
[20:22] <magicianlord> ghostknife: i have smaller drive, so i cant comment from experience. however, what is the size of your root partition and is this the only partition or are there others on your pc?
[20:22] <warlock> hi guys.. i am getting really bad wlan speeds.. just around 200 kb/p it should be in MBs right...  any idea why so?? i am on ubuntu 10.10
[20:22] <magicianlord> warlock: have you tested speeds with other computes or in windows?
[20:22] <bonjoyee> warlock: what is your wan isp speed?
[20:22] <J_C> warlock: not necesarily. Depends on your ISP
[20:22] <warlock> magic_ninja,  yes i have a win xp machine as well..
[20:23] <J_C> I have a Gig card and get about 360 Kb
[20:23] <digirak> hey guys
[20:23] <Matthias__> I grabbed images via wget, they are named  foobar.jpg.1  .2 .10 .11 .12 .100 .120 .1000 etc  | how can I quickly rename them to jpg.0001 .0002 .0010 .0012 .0100 .0120  (using rename command?) ?
[20:23] <digirak> can someone help me isntall my gcc with no errors
[20:23] <digirak> ?
[20:23] <serialized> i have a 802.11abg and i can get up to 1.1MB
[20:23] <serialized> on a 10Mb connection
[20:23] <J_C> depends on your ISP
[20:23] <warlock> i have a 600 kbps internet line that goes to my linksys router.. and from there i get wifi to my ubuntu box
[20:23] <bigmahatma> hello. I've got a amd k325 processor (on a dell m101z) and I'm running 10.04. I'd like to downclock the CPU, how can I do it?
[20:23] <pradeep> digirak, install build-essentials
[20:24] <digirak> isntalled
[20:24] <digirak> yet it says the sme thing
[20:24] <J_C> digirak: what exactly does it say?
[20:24] <ghostknife> magicianlord: root partition is 13GB recovery partition, 40GB for the original windows partition, and the rest for Linux (+- 450GB).
[20:25] <warlock> is there some setting on the linksys router that curbs the data transfer between 2 comps of the network
[20:25] <digirak> holde i will send in the paste bin
[20:25] <ghostknife> magicianlord: but still, you can clearly see at 70% it becomes very slow and CPU usages spikes, and with 9.10 it took about 5minutes.
[20:25] <digirak> http://pastebin.com/Y7rmE9Lh
[20:26] <vooze> Any idea on how i find a driver for Network Card 	Integrated 10/100/1000 Gigabit Ethernet LAN ?? ubuntu 10.10 .. :)
[20:26] <ghostknife> I don't see how no one has experienced this. It's driving me mad. I've gone as far as building an application that warns me before the mount so I know to plan my next reboot
[20:26] <warlock> i am using samba share.. to share files.. and while copying from one comp to another.. its barely 200 kbps.. instead of MBs
[20:26] <ghostknife> warlock: how fast is it when you copy using HTTP or something else?
[20:27] <craiggles> hey guys, i used my tv as monitor and had 1080p res, now im using standard monitor and it doesnt support my auto 1080p, what should i do?
[20:27] <J_C> you're using cmake, not make. I'm not that familiar with cmake but I do know there is a seoarate setup involved. I haven't had to do it in awhile
[20:27] <craiggles> the screen is blank when i log on
[20:27] <gucko> _jesse_: this is my GRUB file:
[20:27] <gucko> _jesse_: http://pastie.org/private/urfwiqhna1hqqx7kwotstg
[20:27] <craiggles> im currently just on the command line ubuntu.
[20:27] <ghostknife> warlock: try installing+starting apache, then copy a file to your docroot (with default apache it's /var/www). Download this file over the network (default would be http://your-ip-address/filename.ext)
[20:28] <hellyeah_> i guess
[20:28] <serialized> can you change the display res with xrandr?  I bare with me im new to linux :)
[20:28] <hellyeah_> linux wireless driver also is not good
[20:28] <digirak> yes i am trying to get kde development envi isntalled
[20:28] <craiggles> any ideas? sorry this is just really annoying.
[20:28] <digirak> so cmake is part of the dependencies
[20:28] <warlock> ghostknife, and how would installing apache help me ???
[20:29] <serialized> apt-get install apache
[20:29] <J_C> digirak: you may have to google that one. That's what I ended up doing. It's involved and not just a straight gcc install. CMake requires a particular setup
[20:29] <digirak> J_CX
[20:29] <digirak> J_C
[20:29] <digirak> can u tell me what u googled for
[20:29] <_jesse_> gucko: looks good, did you make sure to run `update-grub` ?
[20:29] <ghostknife> warlock: sudo apt-get install apache2 && sudo service apache2 start
[20:30] <gucko> _jesse_: yes
[20:30] <vooze> Any idea on how i find a driver for WIRELESS Network Card 	Integrated 10/100/1000 Gigabit Ethernet LAN ?? ubuntu 10.10 .. :)
[20:30] <J_C> If I remember, I just started with "cmake + kde" and went from there
[20:30] <warlock> ghostknife, no i know that part... i meant.. how will it help me
[20:30] <clavin12> How might I go about upgrading dpkg?
[20:30] <_jesse_> gucko: did setting it to 0 work?
[20:30] <magicianlord> clavin12: apt-get update dpkg
[20:30] <J_C> I ended up finding a site that expalined it step by step but did not save the sie. Once was enough :-)
[20:30] <gucko> _jesse_: I set it to -1
[20:30] <ghostknife> warlock: oh. well, if the download is faster over HTTP, then you know it's not your network card/driver but samba
[20:30] <clavin12> alright
[20:31] <gucko> _jesse_: it seems to work, but when I remove the keyboard the menu is display
[20:31] <ghostknife> warlock: or rather, you have a strong indication. it can still be the network card/driver
[20:31] <gucko> _jesse_: displayed
[20:31] <gucko> _jesse_: I'm using it as a server...but it's a Desktop version
[20:31] <mellin> What is the best method to install .ttf fonts for windows in 10.10?
[20:31] <_jesse_> gucko: hmm, I'm not sure then; I can't see why those two suggestiosn wouldn't work
[20:31] <warlock> ghostknife, i feel it could be my wireless router .. :S ... how do i check that for a linksys router.. noob here
[20:32] <Guest71477> hello
[20:32] <Guest71477> how can i change mi nickname?
[20:32] <Alex__K> Ok - I checked, and wake-on-lan is disabled in my BIOS and in Ubuntu, so that's not the culprit
[20:32] <Alex__K> Any other ideas?
[20:32] <faucet> anyne have gparted-live-0.7.1-5.iso ?   all links i find are dead
[20:32] <faucet> might have to use an old version
[20:32] <magicianlord> Guest71477: type /nick <NAME>
[20:32] <mellin> Guest71477::  /nick <newNick>
[20:32] <ghostknife> warlock: type and paste the output of "iwconfig"

[20:33] <djd> ubuntu rocks
[20:33] <hellyeah_> wireless driver is not good
[20:33] <warlock> ghostknife, http://pastie.org/1509801
[20:34] <hellyeah_> in windows 7 my connection never lost but in ubuntu my connection lost frequently why
[20:34] <J_C> Alex_K: what about the hard drive?
[20:34] <ComradeHaz`> Hi all. I wish to PXE boot an Ubuntu machine from a Debian server. Is there anyone who is in a position to assist me with this?
[20:34] <ineedhelp> hello, ubuntu doesnt recognize my laptop monitor, so the max resolution is 800x600 . what can i do?
[20:35] <Alex__K> J_C: What should I check there?
[20:35] <J_C> ComradeHaz: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DisklessUbuntuHowto
[20:35] <faucet> ineedhelp:  might be driver issues?   dont know, im also new (day 2)
[20:35] <ghostknife> warlock: hmm. you have a pretty low quality, though still good bit rate. it might be that the samba protocol is struggling over that connection/router. try changing the buffer sizes. check rsize and wsize in "man mount.cifs". it's mount options
[20:35] <faucet> try finding ur gfx info out and check into some drivers?
[20:36] <hellyeah_> ineedhelp:  you have nvidia
[20:36] <Alex__K> J_C: I upgraded my motherboard/CPU/RAM, and suspend/hibernate stopped working after that, so I'm pretty sure it's a mobo issue
[20:36] <warlock> ghostknife,  No manual entry for mount.cifs
[20:36] <J_C> Alex_K: try "man hdparm" in otherwords, your hard drive may be accessed and not giving suspend enough time to set? I'm just guessing on this one.
[20:36] <Diverdude> If i start a job like this: ffmpeg -i camfile.avi output2.flv & to run in the background, how do i kill  it before it has ended?
[20:36] <ineedhelp> hellyeah its an integrated chipset
[20:36] <Alex__K> The new one is an Asus P8P67 Pro, which is pretty new, so I'm wondering if some sort of patch might come along
[20:37] <ghostknife> then check "man mount"
[20:37] <Alex__K> J_C: Ok, one sec
[20:38] <jk_> question -- I'm running two supposedly-identical Lucid systems, both with automatic update enabled. Several days ago one of them got a kernel update to 2.6.32-28. The other is still at 2.6.32-27 and checking manually reports that it is up to date. Since the move to 28 was a security update, what gives?
[20:38] <ghostknife> warlock: also: sudo apt-get install smbfs
[20:38] <faucet> anyne have gparted-live-0.7.1-5.iso ?   all links i find are dead
[20:39] <J_C> faucet: most live distros have gparted installed, like Knoppix. You could use that, couldn't you?
[20:39] <warlock> ghostknife,  installed that
[20:39] <warlock> ghostknife,  anything else to install??
[20:39] <faucet> possibly, my issue is...
[20:39] <ghostknife> faucet: have you even tried googling it?
[20:39] <ghostknife> warlock: then you have mount.cifs' man page
[20:39] <ghostknife> warlock: just type: man mount.cifs
[20:39] <faucet> having turned my whole hd from ntsf... to linux, need to change part back to make windows installable
[20:39] <bajk-tragbar_> how do I prent ls from listing contents of subdirectories? if I do ls -a .* to see all my hidden directories, it also shows the content of those which crowds the screen
[20:40] <faucet> ghostknife: yes
[20:40] <J_C> knoppix should have what you need
[20:40] <ghostknife> faucet: well, I just did and found it on source forge, 1st link
[20:40] <faucet> ok, thanks
[20:40] <Alex__K> J_C: There's a ton of stuff in the man page and I'm not sure exactly what I should check?
[20:40] <faucet> ghostknife:  link is working for you?
[20:40] <serialized> how long has everyone been using linux then?  I have for about a year now but my first encounter of the linux world was with red hat
[20:40] <ghostknife> faucet: yes
[20:40] <faucet> hrmm
[20:40] <ghostknife> faucet: sourceforge doesn't have manual links
[20:41] <faucet> i was getting an error msg
[20:41] <faucet> what u mean
[20:41] <ghostknife> faucet: it's automated and spread across servers to ensure they don't get broken links. broken links are rare and usually just timing errors
[20:41] <faucet> ah
[20:41] <faucet> well, something is failing then
[20:41] <ghostknife> faucet: I just started the download
[20:41] <faucet> ok, let me see wut it was saying
[20:41] <J_C> Alex_K: I think power management is what you're looking for? Also there are lots of web references on how to use it that aren't as terse as the man page
[20:41] <faucet> maybe you could help,... lol, sorry too new
[20:42] <ghostknife> faucet: http://downloads.sourceforge.net/project/gparted/gparted-live-stable/0.7.1-5/gparted-live-0.7.1-5.iso?r=&ts=1296333708&use_mirror=cdnetworks-us-1
[20:42] <bullgard4> GParted 0.5.1 on a Live CD: "Delete: Partition /dev/sda5 could not be deleted. Please umount all logical partitions having a number > 5." I umounted all of them but the message persists. How to proceed?
[20:42] <ghostknife> bullgard4: try manually deleting the partition with fdisk.
[20:43] <OmegaNew> Is it a good idea to encrypt my home folder?
[20:43] <ghostknife> OmegaNew: if you're very paronoid. sure.
[20:43] <warlock> ghostknife,  no luck
[20:43] <J_C> bullgard4: have you used the "mount" command to make sure they are all unmounted?
[20:43] <ghostknife> OmegaNew: otherwise, use something like truecrypt and selectively encrypt the data, as well as carry it around or securely back it up
[20:43] <OmegaNew> ghostknife: /me runs a tor node, I was just asking to see if more people do it.
[20:43] <bullgard4> J_C: No. I used GParted.
[20:44] <OmegaNew> And yesterday, I had to recover from my encrypted home folder and it was a bit of a headache :<
[20:44] <ghostknife> OmegaNew: what does hosting a tor node have to do with encrypting home dirs?
[20:44] <Alex__K> J_C: http://pastebin.com/3c3M8KyW
[20:44] <faucet> ghostknife:  /tmp/l_tuNGCe.bin.part could not be saved, because the source file could not be read
[20:44] <J_C> bullgard4: on the system itself, have you tried just running "mount" on a terminal?
[20:44] <J_C> try that
[20:44] <ghostknife> faucet: weird
[20:44] <share> hello
[20:44] <OmegaNew> ghostknife: re: paranoid
[20:44] <ghostknife> must be a problem with your connection
[20:44] <gibran> hi guys i need some help, how can i install a windows os beside my ubuntu os. I need the windows os even if it's just 10gb for the software update on my phone
[20:44] <ikonia> bullgard4: is partition 5 a logical container for logical partitions, or a logical partition
[20:44] <faucet> ghostknife, imma try reboot, maybe updated something...donno, see if that works
[20:45] <faucet> thanks tho
[20:45] <ghostknife> OmegaNew: ok, though once it's mounted it's mounted. encryption won't help you. encryption only helps when not mounted, for example when you're pc is stolen
[20:45] <Alex__K> J_C: Should power management be off or on?
[20:45] <ghostknife> faucet: wait
[20:45] <faucet> k
[20:45] <bullgard4> ikonia: /dev/sda5 is a logical partition.
[20:45] <ghostknife> faucet: try: wget -c http://is.gd/Q5XnBE
[20:45] <faucet> k
[20:45] <ikonia> bullgard4: are there any other logical partitions in it, or does it have a partent logical partition
[20:46] <faucet> yup
[20:46] <faucet> that worked
[20:46] <faucet> thanks!
[20:46] <gibran> anyone?
[20:46] <J_C> Alex_K: just run hdparm -B and see what the setting is. 1 through 127 permits spin-down. It's in the manpage -B switch
[20:46] <ghostknife> faucet: the problem seems to be your browser or it's configuration. do you have a proxy server configured in the browser
[20:46] <ikonia> !dualboot | gibran
[20:46] <Matthias__> I grabbed images via wget, they are named  foobar.jpg.1  .2 .10 .11 .12 .100 .120 .1000 etc  | how can I quickly rename them to jpg.0001 .0002 .0010 .0012 .0100 .0120  (using rename command?) ?
[20:46] <faucet> ghost: no
[20:47] <faucet> everythhing is still default
[20:47] <ghostknife> faucet: wicket. well, must be your browser then. firefox?
[20:47] <faucet> yes
[20:47] <ghostknife> faucet: try chromium
[20:47] <bullgard4> ikonia: I do not know what a "partent ligical partition" is. There are other logical partions on this computer: sda6 though 10.
[20:47] <ghostknife> faucet: it's a better option either way
[20:47] <faucet> ok, thanks
[20:47] <faucet> never know reboot might fix it
[20:47] <CR7> ola
[20:47] <faucet> donno
[20:47] <ikonia> bullgard4: what is /dev/sda4 ?
[20:47] <ghostknife> faucet: could very well. closing+reopening could help as well
[20:47] <OmegaNew> ghostknife: Is it possible to enable ecryptfs post-installation?
[20:47] <CR7> kien eres
[20:47] <Alex__K> J_C: -B gives me http://pastebin.com/3c3M8KyW , am I specifying the device incorrectly?
[20:48] <ghostknife> OmegaNew: yes
[20:48] <CR7> que es esto
[20:48] <J_C> sda6 through sda10 probably means sda5 is the container. Are sda6 through 10 unmounted?
[20:48] <bullgard4> ikonia: /dev/sda does not exist.
[20:48] <Jordan_U> bullgard4: ikonia: "parent logical partition" = extended partition.
[20:48] <m4v> !es | CR7
[20:48] <faucet> ghostknife: thanks for the help fella
[20:48] <ghostknife> OmegaNew: anything is possible pre/post installation
[20:48] <emy> dove scarico limewire?
[20:48] <OmegaNew> ghostknife: Thank you for your time.
[20:48] <ikonia> bullgard4: I said /dev/sda4 !, not /dev/sda
[20:48] <snowrichard> grr --- been on the phone for nearly 2 hrs trying to find out if i can get cable internet here or not
[20:48] <Alex__K> J_C: sda and sdc are data storage and Windows, sdb is Ubuntu
[20:48] <bullgard4> ikonia: /dev/sda4 does not exist.
[20:48] <ikonia> bullgard4: /dev/sda MUST exist for you to have /dev/sda5
[20:48] <snowrichard> no one seems to know
[20:48] <snowrichard> lo'
[20:48] <ikonia> bullgard4: pastebin me the output of sudo fdisk -l please
[20:48] <ghostknife> emy: /join #ubuntu-es
[20:49] <mongy> Matthias__,   one method is a nautilus script.  http://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/2010/08/batch-rename-files-in-ubuntu-with-renamer/
[20:49] <induz> how can i setup a different repo for a different IPod on GTKPod??
[20:49] <ghostknife> bullgard4: /dev/sda4 doesn't need to exist for /dev/sda5
[20:49] <bullgard4> ghostknife: Right.
[20:49] <ishaq> \\
[20:50] <ishaq> exit
[20:50] <ishaq> quit
[20:50] <DJones> 9*+-+
[20:50] <J_C> I keep getting reset here :-(
[20:50] <ghostknife> bullgard4: can you give the contents of /proc/partitions and /proc/mounts
[20:50] <rcmaehl> what is the ppa for the 64bit of libcurl
[20:51] <DJones> Whoops, cat on keyboard moment then
[20:51] <Matthias__> mongy: thanks! I'll have a look at it. :)
[20:51] <ishaq> [quit]
[20:51] <rcmaehl> what is the ppa for the 64bit of libcurl?
[20:51] <ikonia> ishaq: type "/quit"
[20:51] <ikonia> not "quit" use "/quit"
[20:51] <ishaq> Thanks ikonia!
[20:52] <ghostknife> ikonia: best off topic ever ;>
[20:52] <ikonia> ghostknife: ?
[20:52] <p1und3r> hey all, i recently downloaded a new kernel and usually i get my mic to work with alsa packages from audio dev but they don't have one for this kernel, is there another way I can use my mic?
[20:52] <ghostknife> ikonia: /quit
[20:52] <ikonia> ghostknife: either had a choice of letting him carry on in the channel or explaining to him how to quit the channel
[20:53] <J_C> that may not be off-topic :-)
[20:53] <ghostknife> ikonia: I know. it's just a classic
[20:53] <bullgard4> ikonia: http://paste.ubuntu.com/560029/
[20:54] <Jordan_U> bullgard4: Can you pastebin the output of "mount"?
[20:54] <ikonia> bullgard4: ok the reason you can't delete sda5 is because sda5 is a container for sda6,7,8,9,10, none of those must be mounted or in use in any way if you wish to delete /dev/sda5
[20:55] <ikonia> bullgard4: be aware if you delete /dev/sda5 6,7,8,9,10 will also go
[20:55] <J_C> bullgard4: you can check that by using the mount command in a terminal. just type mount to see what's mounted
[20:56] <J_C> bullgard4: and like Ikonia said, you delet 5, the rest go to
[20:56] <Alex__K> J_C: http://pastebin.com/pKfWQw3Q
[20:56] <_AV_> I just have a question. How can i encrypt my Internet connection?
[20:56] <ghostknife> bullgard4: can you please send contents of /proc/mounts (or mount command output)
[20:56] <djd_> i have got this particular problem
[20:57] <djd_> i had installed mysql
[20:57] <Jordan_U> ikonia: Why would you think that deleting sda5, a logical partition, would cause any other partitions to also be deleted?
[20:57] <natia> Pictures on face book won't load why?
[20:57] <ikonia> Jordan_U: because look at the block start/end points, they are within /dev/sda5
[20:57] <ghostknife> _AV_: you can't. you can encrypt it between 2 points, like you and your router. but once it goes onto the internet via your ISP it's unencrypted. alternatively you can host an external server and encrypt between you and that server (even over ISP), but once it leaves that server for the internet it's unencrypted again
[20:57] <ghostknife> _AV_: so it depends on what you want to protect against
[20:57] <djd_> it was not working googling around i found that it was a install issue and i needed to reinstall it but sudo apt-get remove --purge mysql-server doesnt totally remove mysql the configuration file still stays any work arounds?
[20:58] <ghostknife> _AV_: if it's just privacy, you can try something like tor
[20:58] <J_C> APM level not supported. try a higher level maybe? like 126?
[20:58] <ikonia> djd_: remove the configuration file
[20:58] <ghostknife> _AV_: or some other anonimity service (a more professional one might be better, since tor hosts have been known to be dishonest)
[20:58] <J_C> or Advanced Power Management is not suported at all?
[20:58] <Alex__K> J_C: Same result no matter what number I put
[20:58] <natia> What is the plug-in for ubuntu that will load the pictures on face book
[20:59] <bullgard4> ghostknife: http://paste.ubuntu.com/560030/
[20:59] <Alex__K> It also gives me the same result if I don't specify a number, so that's probably it
[20:59] <J_C> APM may not be suppoorted on that drive
[20:59] <Alex__K> Same for all three drives
[20:59] <_AV_> ghostknife: I just want privacy. Thanks. So much privacy.
[20:59] <djd_> @ikonia what exactly should i remove, i mean the path
[20:59] <ghostknife> ikonia: they're not within sda5's bounds
[20:59] <ikonia> ghostknife: I've just seen that, I read it wrong
[20:59] <Jordan_U> ikonia: sda5 starts at 1956 and ends at 4592, sda6 starts at 4593 and ends at 4847.
[20:59] <J_C> Alex_K: try googling suspend + your system + linux? Maybe there are some answers there.
[20:59] <ikonia> Jordan_U: it's my mistake
[21:00] <ikonia> although 5 is within 2's
[21:00] <Alex__K> J_C: I've spent hours doing that, the mobo is so new that there are no results
[21:00] <ikonia> as is 6, 7 8 9 and 10
[21:00] <J_C> bummer
[21:00] <bullgard4> ikonia: How have you seen that sda5 is a container for sda6 though 10?
[21:00] <ikonia> bullgard4: I'm wrong, 2 is the container
[21:00] <ikonia> bullgard4: I read it wrong
[21:00] <J_C> I know how you feel though, I've been struggling with sound and hdmi
[21:00] <bullgard4> ikonia: ok
[21:01] <Dancey383> _AV_: or http://www.strongvpn.com/
[21:01] <ghostknife> bullgard4: try doing this: "fdisk /dev/sda", then press "d", "5". does it delete it?
[21:02] <ub01_> Does anyone have a WDsmartdrive that they use on ubuntu?
[21:02] <J_C> I do
[21:02] <ub01_> have you bypassed the smartware mount or do you run it?
[21:02] <J_C> ub01_: what's up
[21:03] <J_C> I run it, sort of. when I formatted it I did not start on block number 1 though
[21:03] <J_C> I started at 2048
[21:03] <J_C> no probs
[21:04] <J_C> I believe that is necesary in order to properly format and use the drive as intended
[21:04] <Alex__K> J_C: I got it, I had to disable the USB3
[21:04] <Alex__K> Thanks anyways :)
[21:04] <J_C> OK :-)
[21:04] <cm100> Hey All. I am a hard core windows user that is thinking of switchin to Ubuntu - maybe. But i have been thinking of something thats.. suprised me.
[21:05] <Alex__K> One last question - I had to use modprobe to unload a module to get it to work, so how can I set it to not load that module at startup?
[21:05] <ProfessorBacon> cm100: hi, what?
[21:05] <ghostknife> jcrigby: what is this "smartdrive" ?
[21:06] <ghostknife> Alex__K: what module is it?
[21:06] <brontoeee> if i'am using wicd, should i get rid of network applet?
[21:06] <Alex__K> xhci_hcd
[21:06] <Jupe> Is there anyway to set Ubuntu back to post instalation state? That is, removing packages, files etc
[21:06] <ghostknife> Alex__K: you can add 'blacklist module-name' to /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf
[21:07] <TTilus> looks like mutter always crashes when i move cursor on the left bar, im running 10.10 netbook live on TP T41 and thinking of installing it, but this issue bothers me
[21:07] <ghostknife> Alex__K: so do this: echo xhci_hcd | sudo tee -a /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf >/dev/null
[21:07] <Jordan_U> Jupe: Easiest way is to just re-install. You can preserve your /home during re-install even if it's not on a separate partition.
[21:07] <ghostknife> bullgard4: have you fixed it yet?
[21:08] <mongy> TTilus, imho I wouldnt use 10.10 netbook, mutter has already been replaced with compiz for natty...
[21:08] <Alex__K> ghostknife: Thanks a bunch :)
[21:08] <bullgard4> ghostknife: '~$ sudo fdisk /dev/sda' obtains: "Warning: DOS-compatible mode is deprecated. It is strongly recommended to switch off the mode (command 'c') and change display units to sectors /command #u')."
[21:08] <evrim> Hello
[21:08] <evrim> :)
[21:08] <bullgard4> ghostknife: Should I follow this advice?
[21:08] <ghostknife> bullgard4: harlmess message, don't worry about it
[21:08] <cm100> Is it possible to ask a windows-migration-theory question here? Or is there a better place?
[21:09] <TTilus> mongy: okay, unity would just have been so made for my mother in law :)
[21:09] <evrim> go on cm100
[21:09] <ghostknife> bullgard4: in fact, dos compatible mode is easier more natural to read
[21:09] <TTilus> mongy: vanilla ubuntu that is then...
[21:09] <bullgard4> ghostknife: /dev/sda5 still exists.
[21:09] <mongy> TTilus, 10.04 netbook is a decent interface for newbies
[21:09] <cm100> Hey All. I am a hard core windows user that is thinking of switchin to Ubuntu - maybe. But i have been thinking of something thats.. suprised me. I am currently using 3 screens on my desktop and Windows. When i talked to a hard-core Ubuntu user he said why I needed those many. I thought it was an odd question.. why not? You get a better overview and can swap between applications fast. Now I
[21:09] <cm100> have used Ubuntu a little and experienced virtual desktops and now I understand his question. In Ubuntu its really fast to switch between workspaces, one workspace for each "thing" you are doing. My question is, switching to Ubuntu with 3 screens: 1) Can Ubuntu handle 3 screens? 2) What happens if you switch workspaces using 3 screens? actually have 3*4 screens? meaning you swap all?
[21:09] <ghostknife> bullgard4: after you pressed "d" and "5" ?
[21:09] <Jupe> Jordan_U: Thanks, dude :)
[21:09] <bullgard4> ghostknife: yes.
[21:09] <ghostknife> bullgard4: did you quit fdisk ?
[21:10] <Jordan_U> Jupe: You're welcome.
[21:10] <bullgard4> ghostknife: yes.
[21:10] <ghostknife> bullgard4: how? with "w" ?
[21:10] <ghostknife> bullgard4: because ctrl+c will cancel your changes.
[21:10] <bullgard4> No, using 'q'.
[21:10] <ghostknife> bullgard4: don't quit fdisk
[21:10] <mongy> TTilus, could always use Docky and have it on the side, if you wanna replicate unity, kind of
[21:10]  * Jordan_U probably should have explained *how* to accomplish that before Jupe left :(
[21:10] <squizzie> hi all
[21:10] <evrim> cm100: if you are not a real "hardcore" gamer, it's OK to switch to linux
[21:10] <ghostknife> bullgard4: press "p" to list it again
[21:10] <evrim> as linux has bad comp. problems with wine and others
[21:10] <Alex__K> cm100: I'm using Ubuntu with two screens atm, and it works fine. I just had to install the nVidia drivers and set up support for multiple screens. I'll get you a screenshot of the window switching in a second
[21:10] <evrim> even cedega can fail
[21:11] <ghostknife> bullgard4: so, STAY inside fdisk, press 'p' to see partitions (same output as fdisk -l). then press "d" and "5". press "p" again to see if it's gone. if you're happy with the result you can write them to disk and reload partitin table with "w"
[21:11] <cm100> Alex__K: you till use multiple workspaces with two screens?
[21:11] <piper69> "sudo apt-get remove -- purge tightvncserver"
[21:11] <Alex__K> cm100: Yes
[21:11] <evrim> cm100: you can just install ubuntu, no need to go through "2" screens
[21:12] <evrim> but games...
[21:12] <evrim> :/
[21:12] <cm100> evrim: no, but i have screens. I am wondering, If i can use them effeciently
[21:12] <ghostknife> bullgard4: better?
[21:12] <Alex__K> cm100: What video card do you have?
[21:12] <evrim> cm100: you can I bet, ubuntu uses low amount of ram
[21:12] <evrim> you prob' won't have any problems
[21:12] <bullgard4> ghostknife: I have pressed d, then 5, then p. I havew not left fdisk. /dev/sda5 is still to be seen.
[21:13] <cm100> Alex__K: radeon hd 5770 i think, why? is installing drivers a pain?
[21:13] <bullgard4> ghostknife: Not better.
[21:13] <evrim> sometimes cm100
[21:13] <evrim> for example my damn intel mobile chipset 965
[21:13] <evrim> can't find a compatible driver
[21:13] <evrim> ...
[21:14] <Alex__K> cm100: I don't know if ATI cards have the same thing that nVidia ones do, but ATI has a history of not supporting Linux as well as nVidia
[21:14] <cm100> evrim: what happens then? screen goes blank?
[21:14] <ghostknife> bullgard4: did you press enter after "
[21:14] <ghostknife> bullgard4: did you press enter after "d" ?
[21:14] <evrim> nope
[21:14] <evrim> just games lag
[21:14] <ghostknife> paste your whole fdisk session, from the moment you typed "fdisk /dev/sda" up till you're second "p" please
[21:14] <evrim> I didn't face any other problems
[21:14] <mongy> cm100, I have a 4650HD, works fine with ATI drivers.
[21:14] <ghostknife> bullgard4: I think I might know what you're problem is
[21:14] <evrim> even tho' I don't want to mislead you cm100, I'm new to ubuntu
[21:14] <bullgard4> ghostknife: I do not understand. I pressed d, then I pressed 5, then I pressed p.
[21:14] <cm100> Alex__K: but generally wise, its a pain to get graphiccards drivers to work in ubuntu, huh?
[21:15] <mongy> cm100, works fine with Radeon (free) driver also, but I need that little extra kick from the ATI ones.
[21:15] <ghostknife> bullgard4: just paste you're session.
[21:15] <piper69> can someone please help me install any vnc server in my ubuntu. I tried vino and tightvncserver but i still can't gain remote desktop access
[21:15] <cm100> mongy: kick?
[21:15] <ghostknife> bullgard4: forget about my question. it's not important
[21:15] <evrim> cm100: the problem is not installing or whatsoever, it's finding them
[21:15] <Alex__K> cm100: For nVidia, it told me that I had proprietary drivers to install, I clicked the button to install, rebooted, and it worked
[21:15] <mongy> cm100, proprietary drivers are little faster than the radeon driver
[21:15] <evrim> cm100: for intel chipset series I COULDN'T find a driver
[21:15] <cm100> mongy: why you need faster drivers? you game?
[21:15] <evrim> for 32x
[21:15] <Alex__K> cm100: The only issue was that nVidia's multiple monitor implementation took a bit of tweaking to work
[21:15] <mongy> cm100, the proprietary driver is available like any other in additional drivers applet
[21:15] <Alex__K> cm100: http://www.linuxine.com/2008/06/how-to-enable-dual-monitors-with-ati-diplay-card-in-linux.html suggests that it should be possible
[21:16] <evrim> cm100: if you game just go for drivers
[21:16] <cm100> Alex__K: urgh, dont say that :/
[21:16] <evrim> cm100: if you don't no need actually
[21:16] <mongy> cm100, a little.
[21:16] <evrim> you won't go blackscreen or smth
[21:16] <evrim> cm100: BUT I installed on windows partial
[21:16] <laptop_> how do i get my laptops wireless modem working???
[21:16] <Alex__K> cm100: Multiple workspaces + multiple monitors looks like this: http://i.imgur.com/vGEUc.jpg
[21:16] <evrim> it may be locating drivers from here <.<
[21:16] <cm100> evrim: ah
[21:16] <ghostknife> bullgard4: from you're session I should be able to see what the problem is
[21:16] <mongy> cm100, also my fan on my card (in a laptop) runs constantly with the free driver... that may improve over time.. for now tho its the non-free driver for me
[21:17] <evrim> cm100: to be sure, leave windows partial when installing
[21:17] <evrim> laptop_: give more info
[21:17] <owen1> anyone tried making phone calles using gmail? I can make calls but can't be heard. is it just me?
[21:17] <_AV_> back
[21:17] <cm100> Alex__K: so, you still find it using 2 screens in buntu useful?
[21:17] <evrim> mongy: my laptop fan is like WOOOOOOOMM because of the dust inside
[21:17] <evrim> didn't clean for 3 years
[21:17] <evrim> cba to ;)
[21:18] <Alex__K> cm100: Definitely, it'd be really hard to go back to only one
[21:18] <_AV_> Dancey383: Thanks.
[21:18] <Alex__K> cm100: But that may just be my preference
[21:18] <mongy> evrim, mine is less than 6 months old and cant hardly hear it with the amd drivers
[21:18] <laptop_> evrim: i have a toshiba laptop and had ubuntu installed, someone gave me a commands to get it working at one time
[21:18] <owen1> can someone install google plugin for phone calls and tell me if it's working for her? http://www.google.com/chat/voice/
[21:18] <cm100> Alex__K: Yea me too. That's why I went 3 screens - but thats maybe crazy hard to configure in Ubuntu.
[21:18] <Alex__K> cm100: Personally, after switching, I find anything besides multiple monitors + multiple screens to be really restrictive
[21:18] <laptop_> evrim: wiped disk and started a new clean install but dont remember the commands
[21:19] <chris_percol> hi, I have a full sized mac aluminium keyboard, "@ are mixed up and there's no hash key, I have been tinkering with settings without any joy, anyone have any thoughts
[21:19] <evrim> laptop_: for my toshiba satellite, I installed on windows partial and it auto-worked
[21:19] <Alex__K> cm100: With the nVidia drivers, it only takes a few minutes, but I'm not 100% sure about the ATI ones - I'd definitely recommend going ahead and trying, though
[21:19] <evrim> laptop_: can you find your modem/access point from the icon at the top?
[21:19] <_AV_> Bye people. Thanks for everything.
[21:19] <cm100> Alex__K: sorry for bothering you with these questions, but I see you dont have a task bar on your left screen? why not?
[21:20] <laptop_> evrim: also have a toshiba satellite
[21:20] <ghostknife> bullgard4: the paste?
[21:20] <Alex__K> cm100: That's just how it is, I don't know if it's possible to change it
[21:20] <evrim> laptop_: when you bought it?
[21:20] <cm100> Alex__K: darn :/
[21:20] <bullgard4> ghostknife: http://paste.ubuntu.com/560032/
[21:20] <JobJob> hello
[21:20] <mongy> cm100, non free ati driver is a breeze to install and has catalyst control centre to config displays etc...
[21:20] <Alex__K> cm100: That's probably just because of how the nVidia driver sets it up, ATI might do it differently
[21:20] <coz_> chris_percol,   have you checked links like this one ?  https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AppleKeyboard
[21:20] <laptop_> evrim: icon says device not ready, bought 3 months ago
[21:20] <evrim> laptop_: ahem...
[21:20] <JobJob> help
[21:20] <chris_percol> coz_: tahnks, doing that now
[21:20] <cm100> mongy: non-free? as in, you pay for drivers? o.O
[21:21] <evrim> laptop_: look for a button ON your laptop, not the screen
[21:21] <mongy> cm100, as in  its not open source.
[21:21] <laptop_> ah...
[21:21] <Alex__K> cm100: Only showing it on one screen is the default in OSX and Windows though, so I wouldn't be too surprised if that's how it is in Ubuntu too
[21:21] <evrim> laptop_: maybe your wireless switch went to off state by a mistake
[21:21] <cm100> Alex__K: true, i am using a third party application to get task-bars on all screens in Windows..
[21:22] <laptop_> evrim: i know where the wireless switch is but does not function with ubuntu
[21:22] <ghostknife> bullgard4: can you please run a "p" before "d" and "5" and a "p" afterwards. I want to see the difference between the 2 after a delete. the fdisk -l output seems inconsistent
[21:22] <ghostknife> bullgard4: wait, it workd
[21:22] <ghostknife> bullgard4: wait, it worked
[21:22] <evrim> laptop_: mine functions very well, and it's a 3 year old laptop :/
[21:22] <ghostknife> bullgard4: which partitions do you want to delete? all of them?
[21:23] <evrim> laptop_: what you mean by device not ready also...
[21:23] <bullgard4> ghostknife: Only /sda5
[21:23] <ThomasB2k> I recently purchased a new monitor for my laptop, and I'm using it for  dual desktops. I'm using my new monitor as the primary "desktop" instead  of my laptop screen. However, Conky is still on my laptop's screen. How  can I move Conky onto my main monitor?
[21:23] <ghostknife> bullgard4: as you can see, when you press "d" and "5", the Linux partition vanished. then sda6 became sda5
[21:23] <caedea> anyone who might have any ideas on an issue i'm having with automounting an nfs on my server?
[21:23] <ghostknife> bullgard4: have a look. go into fdisk, then press "p". see the partitions. then press "d" and "5". press "p" again. there is one less partition.
[21:23] <bullgard4> ghostknife: Ah!
[21:23] <caedea> basically i am positive i have the permissions set and yet i can't for the life of me mount it
[21:23] <Vendetta> evening people
[21:24] <laptop_> evrim: when i click on the icon for connections the wired connection is okay but the wireless says device not ready
[21:24] <ghostknife> bullgard4: the problem is that when you delete "p", the offsets are all messed up
[21:24] <ghostknife> bullgard4: what do you want to do after deleting it?
[21:24] <evrim> laptop_: can you access your modem with another device like psp?
[21:24] <evrim> laptop_: or another mobile phone, blackberry whatsoever
[21:25] <ghostknife> bullgard4: the whole 1956-4592 range is now empty
[21:25] <cm100> ThomasB2k: I am not an Ubuntu user, but read your question. Im curious, isnt Conky a normal application you can drag to your second screen?
[21:25] <Vendetta> quick question: why would my boot screen not show when i boot but show when i shutdown (ubuntu 10.10)?
[21:25] <laptop_> evrim: yes, my other windows machines will connect
[21:25] <ghostknife> bullgard4: you can only create a new partition in it's place. or if you have the right software, perhaps move some around or resize some
[21:25] <ThomasB2k> cm100: No, Conky doesn't have any title bar or anything that would allow it to be dragged.
[21:25] <bullgard4> ghostknife: My final target ist to enlarge the capacity of sda8 which has now become sda7.
[21:26] <caedea> meh
[21:26] <ghostknife> bullgard4: don't do this with fdisk then
[21:26] <cm100> ThomasB2k: ah, ok :)
[21:26] <evrim> laptop_: hmm... I really don't know, my satellite is 3 years and yours is 3 months old, there may have been a difference after that much time
[21:26] <ghostknife> rather use something that offers all this functionality, like partition magic
[21:26] <bullgard4> ghostknife: I will try to use GParted now.
[21:26] <maxagaz_> How to read sqlite databases on android from ubuntu ?
[21:26] <faucet> ghostknife: it was due to needing a restart...browser fail.  thanks again
[21:26] <evrim> laptop_: try rebooting your laptop with kubuntu or linux, and see if they work
[21:26] <ghostknife> faucet: cool
[21:27] <laptop_> evrim: i came with windows worked fine, i dual booted ubuntu and someone gave me a get command to make wireless work, then i wiped disk and installed ubuntu only
[21:27] <evrim> laptop_: but if you did too much config, I can't help after this point
[21:27] <evrim> laptop_: best thing to do is finding that dude again
[21:27] <laptop_> evrim: cant remember his nick
[21:28] <Vendetta> any free people to assist?
[21:28] <coz_> Vendetta,  can you tell us the issue?:
[21:28] <J_C> assist what?
[21:28] <evrim> laptop_: sorry then, I didn't hit any problems with my ubuntu install, try rebooting
[21:28] <evrim> laptop_: if you got important files do a backup
[21:29] <evrim> laptop_: recovering ubuntu configs don't take much time, you can do them from zero
[21:29] <Vendetta> just wanna know how can i trouble shoot: boot screen doesnt show at startup but shows at shutdown?
[21:29] <evrim> laptop_: nice to meet you after all :)
[21:30] <J_C> Vendetta: do you mean the grub boot screen?
[21:30] <faucet> Vendetta: have you tried modifying any files? trying to change the bootsplash or anything?
[21:30] <bullgard4> ghostknife: GParted shows that my delete operation was not effective. What is the command to tell to finally commit all changes and leave fdisk command?
[21:30] <J_C> or the spalsh screen
[21:30] <bullgard4> ghostknife: GParted shows that my delete operation was not effective. What is the command to tell fdiskto finally commit all changes and leave fdisk command?
[21:30] <Vendetta> yes
[21:30] <J_C> splash?
[21:30] <mr_chris> Could someone please explain to me what journal commit time is?
[21:30] <Vendetta> yip the splash
[21:31] <ghostknife> bullgard4: "w". but be careful though. I can't guarantee that GParted will allow you to do what you want afterwards
[21:31] <bullgard4> mr_chris: Thia is the time when the journal has been finally written to disk.
[21:31] <J_C> I see that on one of my systems too. To tell you the truth, I ignore it. I think it's just a memory issue on the video card itself.
[21:31] <ghostknife> mr_chris: where did you see this?
[21:32] <bullgard4> ghostknife: Hm. I will dare.
[21:32] <ThomasB2k> Um, Ubuntu Forums are giving me a Windows Server-like mysql error.
[21:32] <Vendetta> J_c: it is rather interesting
[21:32] <cm100> hah
[21:32] <J_C> It's an older card and I really don't care to waste my time troubleshooting an older card
[21:33] <Vendetta> J_c: Well mine is a samsung n150 netbook which i am currently working from
[21:33] <J_C> I think it's some kind of residual mem from bootup
[21:33] <evrim> cm100: so what you decided?
[21:33] <J_C> Thats a newer system, rare problem on my newer systems
[21:33] <mongy> Too many connections
[21:34] <mr_chris> bullgard4: Thanks. ghostknife: The example hooks script here https://help.ubuntu.com/community/PowerManagement/ReducedPower
[21:34] <jrib> mongy: did you sort out the decrypted home issue?
[21:34] <mongy> ../srv/www.ubuntuforums.org/public_html/includes/class_core.php on line 1138
[21:34] <Vendetta> J_C: found  a article about a guy who's system is half way to hell
[21:34] <bajk-tragbar_> where is the Trash located in KDE?
[21:34] <J_C> what kind is it?
[21:34] <bajk-tragbar_> which directory
[21:34] <cm100> Evrim: im writing on Facebook that the #ubuntu channel is getting spammed with random questions, while #windows is quite. Making it harder to decide if I should really migrate to Ubuntu or not :-/
[21:34] <mr_chris> ghostknife: I'm reading through it and comparing it to my own system to make sure it'll work correctly.
[21:34] <mongy> jrib, not tried really.  odd it worked earlier and now does not decrypt the home.
[21:34] <evrim> cm100: yes.. there should really be a ubuntu2 and 3
[21:35] <jrib> mongy: but it works ok when you login through gdm?  And a tty?
[21:35] <cm100> ahum
[21:35] <J_C> cm100: lots of new people to the system that don't want to or know how to read the man pages or use Ubuntu docs
[21:35] <mongy> jrib, yes, entering a password decrypts it
[21:35] <mongy> jrib, otherwise I get Access-Your-Private-Data.desktop  README.txt
[21:35] <cm100> J_C: mm.. mm.. mmhmh..
[21:36] <species> cm100: dont "switch". use ubuntu for what its good at and windows for what its good at.
[21:36] <J_C> :-)
[21:36] <species> cm100: i think many people have this idea in their heads that they can only use 1 OS
[21:36] <jrib> mongy: and you can mount it manually afterwards? (I think you execute ecryptfs-mount-private)
[21:36] <mongy> jrib, I use an interfaces file, this is how I get networking without logging it
[21:36] <cm100> Species: well, I rather not dual-use two operating systems..
[21:36] <mongy> in*
[21:36] <cm100> Species: whats Ubuntu good at that I need that, compared to Windows?
[21:36] <mongy> jrib, I didnt think I had to mount it myself ...
[21:36] <J_C> species: that's what I do, one fedora14 system with an XP kvm guest and ubuntu on the laptop. Perfect :-)
[21:36] <species> cm100: while you're evaluating ubuntu run it on top of windows, in a VM if you like
[21:36] <mongy> might as well enter the password!
[21:36] <jrib> mongy: you shouldn't, but we're troubleshooting
[21:37] <species> cm100: well for a start, good luck getting your games to work if you "switch"
[21:37] <cm100> species: hurray..
[21:37] <species> J_C has the right idea
[21:37] <BinaryMan> so, what's up with the forums?
[21:37] <My-Computer> any official word on angry birds game for ubuntu
[21:37] <cm100> species: i actually play mostly world of warcraft, accoding to google it.. can work
[21:37] <species> im sure it can...
[21:38] <species> with lots and lots of swearing im sure you can make it work in wine
[21:38] <mongy> jrib, yeah that works
[21:38] <J_C> just like LeeLu... perfect!
[21:38] <zac1256> does anybody use back track but me
[21:38] <muxol> is it possible to check from command line the version of an uninstalled app in the repos?
[21:38] <mongy> Inserted auth tok with sig [fd3aa3cf52a54b6c] into the user session keyring
[21:38] <erUSUL> !backtrack > zac1256
[21:38] <jrib> mongy: and you didn't have to enter any password?
[21:38] <cm100> species: so why do YOU use Ubuntu?
[21:38] <species> cm100: avoid being drawn in by idealistic people who think they can save the world by making you switch
[21:38] <mongy> jrib,  it aked for my login passphrase
[21:38] <species> cm100: for uni work, most of our course is somewhat unix oriented
[21:38] <jrib> mongy: hmm
[21:38] <BinaryMan> again.
[21:38] <BinaryMan> so, what's up with the forums?
[21:39] <mongy> BinaryMan, too many connections I think
[21:39] <species> cm100: I currently use it as a laptop OS
[21:39] <Grey_Loki> Hey, i'm sure you guys have noticed already, but just in case - it seems that ubuntuforums.org are down with some kind of database error
[21:39] <species> of course this means wrestling with poor gpu drivers but you cant have it all
[21:40] <cm100> species: wow, that sounded like a comment coming from your heart and was truthful. In fact i am the only one using Windows at work, well apart from the secretary. We are a coding company. So, standing my ground is what I am famous for at work ^^
[21:40] <mongy> species, nothing poor about my ati driver.
[21:40] <erUSUL> Grey_Loki: #ubuntuforums may have more info
[21:40] <Grey_Loki> erUSUL: alright, thanks
[21:40] <J_C> cm100: I know you didn't ask me, but Ubutu is far more secure, for one
[21:40] <species> mongy: good for you
[21:40] <species> i had one windows virus since vista came out
[21:41] <species> and that was java's fault
[21:41] <cm100> J_C: True, I have heard that point as well. But my problem is, I havent had any securiry problems using Windows - ever. I am a caution gu
[21:41] <erUSUL> !ot | cm100
[21:41] <jrib> mongy: presumably before  decrypting, do you have ~/.ecryptfs/auto-mount?
[21:41] <mongy> jrib, I logged out, and back in and I need to run that command again
[21:41] <JeffFromOhio> Anyone know how I can get /dev/dsp to exist on Ubuntu 10.10? It seems to be missing certain alsa kernel modules (such as snd_seq_oss) which are necessary
[21:41] <cm100> erUSUL: right
[21:41] <Vendetta> in my opinion (microsoft engineer :( that i am) Support and flexibility of ubuntu  is way beyond microsoft
[21:41] <rgb247> hi to everyone
[21:41]  * cm100 switching channels
[21:42] <rgb247> someone can help me? how can I copy all mysql databases from an hard-disk?
[21:42] <JeffFromOhio> In past version of Ubuntu, I could use OSS programs, but without /dev/dsp existing, I'm kind of stuck
[21:42] <mongy> jrib, http://pastebin.com/HVg0G6v8
[21:42] <NixGeek> Vendetta: Microsoft employees are turning againt them!
[21:42] <Psycho_Mario> hi, i have UNR installed on my netbook, i have installed and configured openbox, how can i replace gnome with openbox, and remove gnome completely?
[21:42] <J_C> cm100: Actually I haven't had problems generally, but I also use a linux firewall at home and work which helps alot. My big reason is that linux is faster than windows and I'm not a gamer, so windows does nothing extra for me other than take money out of my pocket
[21:43] <Vendetta> maybe.... oh wait is that an official statement :D
[21:43] <ktogias> hi... Is ubuntuforums.org down? I get a "Database error" .
[21:44] <butterworth> Hi there, I'm running Rhythmbox 0.13.1 and am trying to sync my ipod touch, but Rhythmbox says there is no space free (although the ipod says there is 15GB free)
[21:44] <Vendetta> ktogias: sounds like it
[21:44] <JeffFromOhio> ktogias: I get that error too
[21:44] <Codemonkey1991> Can someone name the simplest way of connecting a Windows PC to a Linux PC over an internet connection, in a way that allows the computers to read files directly from each other without downloading them?
[21:45] <lesshaste> in rhythmbox how do you remove albums?
[21:45] <ktogias> Codemonkey1991, probably what you need is samba
[21:45] <ThomasB2k> I recently purchased a new monitor for my laptop, and I'm using it for  dual desktops. I'm using my new monitor as the primary "desktop" instead  of my laptop screen. However, Conky is still on my laptop's screen. How  can I move Conky onto my main monitor?
[21:45] <species> Codemonkey1991: what kind of files?
[21:45] <Vendetta> codemonkey1991: support wise i would say teamviewer
[21:45] <owen1> is there a way to send email with audio recording? i know it's possible with gtalk for windows.
[21:45] <JeffFromOhio> Codemonkey: You might check out Dropbox - technically the files are downloaded, but it's done automatically
[21:45] <Codemonkey1991> @species media files
[21:45] <jrib> mongy: touch ~/.ecryptfs/auto-mount
[21:46] <J_C> Codemonkey1991: vpn, openvpn will run on both
[21:46] <cm100> Codemonkey1991: downloading as in.. FTP? because in theory - you always need to download it ^^ But yea, Drop-box is nce, but it has a 2gb free limit
[21:46] <Vendetta> codemonkey1991: what exactly would you like to do?
[21:46] <Codemonkey1991> I need the files to be run without downloading them first - so that i can watch media files instantly from start to finish
[21:46] <species> just media files? Look into something like jinzora
[21:46] <mongy> jrib, after I mount presumably
[21:46] <jrib> mongy: before
[21:46] <jrib> mongy: I assume
[21:46] <erUSUL> Codemonkey1991: over internet? or in a local network?
[21:46] <species> Codemonkey1991: its a media server which can use VLC as a client
[21:46] <Codemonkey1991> Internet
[21:46] <butterworth> Hi there, I'm running Rhythmbox 0.13.1 and am trying to sync my ipod touch, but Rhythmbox says there is no space free (although the ipod says there is 15GB free)
[21:46] <J_C> Codemonkey1991: it's also possible to use vnc and ssh together
[21:47] <Codemonkey1991> I dont want transcoding
[21:47] <J_C> both available on both platforms
[21:47] <Psycho_Mario> how can i remove the gnome option from the DE box on login in UNR?
[21:47] <mongy> jrib, logged in, did it, logged out, logged in again, still encrypted
[21:47] <Vendetta> so like a media server?
[21:47] <Codemonkey1991> How can i stop the JOINED/LEFT messages - it's fuckin spamming me
[21:47] <JeffFromOhio> Codemonkey: You might consider using VideoLan to setup a streaming server
[21:47] <species> Codemonkey1991: set your client to use conference mode
[21:47] <allah> join #sdl
[21:48] <Codemonkey1991> If i were to use VLC, would files get transcoded?
[21:48] <Codemonkey1991> I'm using webchat.freenode.net
[21:48] <mongy> jrib, I have auto-mount and auto-umount there
[21:48] <JeffFromOhio> Codemonkey: Samba might work for you, but I've never tried samba over the public internet - I'd be worried that it's, perhaps, not secure enough
[21:48] <species> im certain that has a conference mode option
[21:48] <J_C> samba through ssh
[21:48] <mongy> jrib, when decrypted of course
[21:48] <jrib> mongy: hmm, what's auto-umount?
[21:48] <JeffFromOhio> Codemonkey, although, you could setup a VPN and access Samba only through the VPN
[21:48] <mongy> jrib, both are empty
[21:48] <J_C> ssh is pretty versatile
[21:48] <Vendetta> streaming server sounds good
[21:48] <Espenfjo> JeffFromOhio: Most ISPs block CIFS since its so insecure.
[21:48] <erUSUL> Codemonkey1991: depends on the irc client you use
[21:49] <lesshaste> or does no one use rhythmbox??
[21:49] <Vendetta> or vpn depends on bandwidth
[21:49] <J_C> I've used openvpn between windows and linux with no probs
[21:49] <mongy> jrib,  auto-mount  auto-umount  Private.mnt  Private.sig  wrapped-passphrase
[21:49] <jrib> mongy: by "when decrypted", do you mean "before decryption"?
[21:49] <Codemonkey1991> JeffFromOhlo: I'll try the VPN option
[21:49] <mongy> jrib, I only get the 'how to access' files before.. after I get all my files and .ecryptfs folder with those files in
[21:49] <jrib> mongy: what shell do you use? :)

[21:51] <erUSUL> Codemonkey1991: in webchat click on the irc manu ( left tp corner) in options there is one to hide the messages
[21:51] <administrateur> hi
[21:52] <Vendetta> nOn183: ATI ?
[21:52] <species> Codemonkey1991: its in the options
[21:52] <jrib> mongy: you should do some more research to see if ubuntu tries to already do this and we are just missing something, but see: http://ecryptfs.sourceforge.net/ecryptfs-pam-doc.txt
[21:52] <Codemonkey1991> erUSUL omg thanks, it worked
[21:52] <Codemonkey1991> thanks ^^
[21:52] <species> Codemonkey1991: click options, then click "hide JOINS/PARTS..."
[21:52] <erUSUL> Codemonkey1991: no problem
[21:52] <species> oh
[21:52] <Codemonkey1991> :)
[21:52] <nOn183> radeon 9600
[21:52] <Codemonkey1991> I'm downloading and installing openVPN on both my boxes now
[21:53] <erUSUL> nOn183: probaqbly you do not need to install anything. it should work with the free readeon driver
[21:53] <mongy> nOn183, you already have the driver
[21:53] <lesshaste> hmm.. rhythmbox doesn't seem to give any way to manage your library
[21:53] <lesshaste> should I just be using something else?
[21:53] <nOn183> yes i know
[21:53] <owen1> any easy way to record my voice? i could not hear myself with arecord.
[21:53] <mongy> nOn183, 9600 is no longer supported by ATI..  you can use (at your own risk) the xorg-edgers ppa for a bleeding edge driver.
[21:54] <Vendetta> cheer people
[21:54] <nOn183> but i wanna install the prosperity driver
[21:54] <Vendetta> chat later
[21:54] <JeffFromOhio> Does the current free ATI driver have good 3D accelleration? It used to be the free driver was ok for basic desktop use, but had *terrible* performance for 3D
[21:54] <shiguera_> join #osgeoes
[21:54] <species> nOn183: you mean proprietary? not prosperity lol
[21:54] <mongy> nOn183,  its a lot better than it was.....
[21:54] <nOn183> yes
[21:54] <nOn183> sorry
[21:54] <species> or was that a joke xD
[21:55] <nOn183> mongy, hum?
[21:55] <GringoStar> The sleepmode is diseable and the screensaver is inactive but the screen continue to turn black after 10 minutes
[21:55] <mongy> nOn183, I have a newish card and I get decent performance using free....
[21:55] <nOn183> i don t have 3 d acelaration
[21:56] <erUSUL> nOn183: problem is that the propietary drivers deprecates support for old cards quickly. i am not sure it supports the 9600 ....
[21:56] <cpatrick08> i am trying to install the unity2d package from the daily ppa and when i add it and when i update and type sudo apt-get install unity-2d-default-settings into the terminal i get the following error message  The following packages have unmet dependencies:
[21:56] <cpatrick08>  unity-2d-default-settings : Depends: unity-2d-panel but it is not going to be installed

[21:56] <erUSUL> nOn183: anyway if there is support it should appear in System>Admin...>Hardware drivers
[21:56] <jrib> biz_: what program?
[21:56] <erUSUL> biz_:  « type -P command »
[21:57] <nOn183> yah, i don t know why, but i dont have hardware drivers  in admin
[21:57] <biz_> jrib: teamviewer
[21:57] <erUSUL> vooze: ath9k
[21:57] <jrib> biz_: how do you run it?
[21:57] <lesshaste> ubuntu forums seems to be broken! http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=91214
[21:57] <erUSUL> vooze: it comes with ubuntu
[21:57] <biz_> from aplications/internet
[21:57] <species> yes, the site was sabotaged by microsoft
[21:57] <vooze> yeah, I tryed sudo apt-get install ath9k, what the full package name?
[21:57] <cpatrick08> unity 2d problems in 10.10 http://pastebin.com/5xX77E3G
[21:57] <JeffFromOhio> GringoStar: I know you said you changed the settings in Power Management, but which profile did you change them for, the "On AC Power", or "On Battery"
[21:57] <erUSUL> vooze: installing newer drivers wont hurt « sudo apt-get install linux-backports-modules-wireless-$(lsb_release -cs)-generic »
[21:57] <Doinkle> Hi. Ubuntu 10.10.  Not a problem more a question.  Under System > Administration is a app called "System Jobs".  I click it, and the time wheel spins for 10 seconds...what does this function do and how do I learn more about it?  Thanks.
[21:57] <species> ninjas have been dispatched to fix the problem
[21:58] <erUSUL> vooze: it comes in the kernel package
[21:58] <biz_> jrib: from aplications/internet
[21:59] <biz_> erusul: i dont follow
[21:59] <Kondry> Sup everyone?
[21:59] <GringoStar> JeffFromOhio: I did not take any chance, I did it in both and I don't have a battery anymore
[21:59] <jrib> biz_: right click on the ubuntu icon for the menu, edit menu, go to the properties of the launcher and read the command used
[21:59] <erUSUL> biz_: that command should dosplay the full path of command/program
[21:59] <Diverdude> in which ubuntu - gstreamer package do i find the mpegaudioparse plugin?
[21:59] <ub01_> Whats the syntax to open (file) with (application) in the terminal?
[21:59] <erUSUL> biz_: example « type -P firefox » --> /usr/bin/firefox
[22:00] <erUSUL> ub01_: xdg-open file
[22:00] <vooze> erUSUL, thanks.. that line's "done now" should i reboot for it to take effect?
[22:00] <magicianlord> Is there a fix to the 10.04 bug that mutes the sound icon and wont unmute without reboot?
[22:00] <biz_> jrib: so easy yet it was so far from my grasp thank you
[22:00] <nOn183> erUSUL, how i can get the hardware devices?
[22:00] <erUSUL> vooze: yes
[22:00] <species> ub01_: if the application can do it, you would simply use <application name> <filename>
[22:00] <biz_> erusul: thanks
[22:00] <erUSUL> nOn183: what version of ubuntu?
[22:00] <vooze> okay, thanks erUSUL i'll try :P brb
[22:00] <nOn183> 10,10
[22:00] <erUSUL> nOn183: it is not in the admin menu?
[22:01] <nOn183> eurUSUL: nope
[22:01] <Omega> How do I chown all but one file/directory?
[22:01] <mongy> nOn183, there are no proprietary drivers for 9600
[22:01] <erUSUL> nOn183: kubuntu? kde?
[22:01] <mkanyicy> ubuntuforums.org is down, ... it seems.
[22:01] <nOn183> ubuntu gnome
[22:01] <cpatrick08> unity 2d problems in 10.10 http://pastebin.com/5xX77E3G
[22:01] <mongy> nOn183, not for anything newer than like ubuntu 9.04  ( ?)
[22:01] <jrib> Omega: switch to zsh, then there's easy syntax
[22:01] <laptop_> ok anyone else know how to get toshiba satellite wireless working -o
[22:01] <JeffFromOhio> GringoStar: I don't know if this would make any difference or not, but after changing settings, did you log out and log back in?
[22:01] <nOn183> really
[22:01] <erUSUL> nOn183: you do not have the hardware drivers entry? or there is no driver ofered for the ati card in the program?
[22:02] <erUSUL> laptop_: depends on what wifi chip we are talking about
[22:02] <JeffFromOhio> GringoStar: I don't think that should be necessary, but it probably wouldn't hurt to try
[22:02] <mongy> erUSUL, its too old a card...
[22:02] <nOn183> i already install the catalyst
[22:02] <laptop_> erUSUL: how do i find that?? -o
[22:02] <erUSUL> laptop_:  « lspci | grep -i net »
[22:02] <nOn183> but it didint find any hardware
[22:03] <francisco_> hi, how to back to kde default?
[22:03] <GringoStar> JeffFromOhio: Not today but I'm trying to resolve this problem since a couple month
[22:03] <erUSUL> nOn183: as i told you and mongy also points out. the ati propietary driver does not support old cards
[22:03] <thearm> Hello.  I have a question whenever you guys are ready.
[22:03] <mongy> nOn183, ati does not support the latest xorg and your card....
[22:03] <erUSUL> nOn183: you have to use the free readeon driver
[22:03] <jrib> thearm: best to just ask the channel your actual question (on a single line)
[22:04] <nOn183> ok
[22:04] <GringoStar> JeffFromOhio: And I can't find the battery settings anymore, is it because my baterry is not present?
[22:04] <nOn183> so is not possible to have 3d acceleration?
[22:04] <biz_> jrib: should i be able to go to that dirrection and launch the program?
[22:04] <erUSUL> nOn183: the free readeon driver supports 3d in your hardware
[22:04] <francisco_> hi, anyone knows how to set defaul kde conifg?
[22:04] <JeffFromOhio> GringoStar: Yeah, the app might be smart enough to remove the battery settings if none is detected
[22:04] <jrib> biz_: what do you mean by "that direction"?
[22:04] <laptop_> erUSUL: okay 01:00.0 Ethernet controller: Realtek Semiconductor Co., Ltd. RTL8101E/RTL8102E PCI Express Fast Ethernet controller (rev 05)
[22:04] <laptop_> 06:00.0 Network controller: Intel Corporation WiMAX/WiFi Link 6050 Series (rev 5f)
[22:05] <biz_> Jrib: the address i got was this "opt/teamviewer/teamviewer/6/bin/teamviewer"
[22:05] <nOn183> erUSUL: so how i can use 3d
[22:05] <mongy> nOn183, my brother has a 9700, and it supports 3d fine...
[22:05] <erUSUL> laptop_: intel wifi should just work. do « iwconfig » in a terminal de you have a wlan0? with wireless extensions?
[22:05] <mongy> nOn183, using compiz is using 3D
[22:05] <erUSUL> nOn183: you should be able to just use it know...
[22:05] <spidermonk> are there any mt-daapd experts in the room?
[22:05] <biz_> Jrib: should i be able to go there and launch the program
[22:05] <erUSUL> nOn183: you should be able to just use it now...
[22:06] <laptop_> erUSUL: lost me at wlan0....
[22:06] <jrib> biz_: you probably missed the '/' at the beginning.  But you can enter /opt/teamviewer/teamviewer/6/bin/teamviewer in a terminal and press enter to launch the program, if that's what you mean
[22:06] <nOn183> erUSUL
[22:06] <nOn183> ok
[22:06] <jrib> Omega: do you really need a way to do it in bash?
[22:06] <GringoStar> JeffFromOhio: So everything is set to never sleep but it continue to go black. the only execption is when I use vlc cause it have it's own sleep setting
[22:06] <thearm> Ok.  I am brand new to Linux.  Just install Ubuntu on a Vaio VPC-F111NFX laptop.  The resolution is almost as if I enabled wide screen mode on a 4:3 monitor.  I can't see the bottom 'task bar'.  Only the top.  I have an Nvida video card.  I tried to install the recommended driver but then Ubuntu wouldn't boot.  So I booted into recovery mode and disabled it.  Really I just want to get the aspect
[22:06] <thearm> ratio correct and I'll start messing w/ Ubuntu and figure everything else out on my own as much as I can.
[22:06] <erUSUL> laptop_: run « iwconfig » in a terminal window. tell me if you have a wlan0 in the outout
[22:06] <Omega> jrib: I used 'find . -not -name <your_excluded_file_name> -exec chown <new_own:new_grp> {} +'
[22:06] <laptop_> erUSUL: yes i do
[22:07] <lesshaste> does anyone manage to get amarok to stream music to a dlna compliant client. E.g. an internet enabled stereo?
[22:07] <jrib> Omega: hmm, note that's recursive
[22:07] <erUSUL> laptop_: run « sudo iwlist wlan0 scan » does it show some wireless networks?
[22:07] <biz_> Jrib: i want to set it to start when i start my system so i need to tell it to go to that location and open
[22:07] <Omega> jrib: Mhm, I wanted it to be recursive, thank you for your time.
[22:08] <jrib> biz_: just set /opt/teamviewer/teamviewer/6/bin/teamviewer as the command in startup programs
[22:08] <spidermonk> I'm just wondering if I need avahi daemon running in order for mt-daapd to be seen by a Windows system on my lan.
[22:08] <laptop_> erUSUL:  Interface doesn't support scanning : Network is down
[22:08] <thearm> The resolution is set correctly to 1920 1080 60hz res.
[22:08] <biz_> jrib: it tells me that file might be empty
[22:08] <erUSUL> laptop_: « sudo iwconfig wlan0 up »
[22:09] <biz_> jrib:ok i got it
[22:09] <jrib> biz_: ok
[22:09] <laptop_> erUSUL: unknown command up
[22:09] <clavin12> Hey, I have a problem with the ttf-droid package
[22:09] <erUSUL> laptop_: sorry brainfart. « sudo ifconfig wlan0 up »
[22:10] <clavin12> It is listed as not properly installed
[22:10] <clavin12> and I cannot reinstall it
[22:10] <chaospsychex> can someone help me share my internet through a usb wireless adapter
[22:10] <erUSUL> !ics | chaospsychex
[22:10] <clavin12> I type 'sudo apt-get install ttf-droid'
[22:10] <GringoStar> Anybody know why the sleep mode continue to turn the screen to black when the screensaver and the power managements are set to never sleep?
[22:10] <clavin12> and it gives me an error with usr/bin/dpkg
[22:11] <laptop_> erUSUL: SIOCSIFFLAGS: No such file or directory
[22:11] <soreau> GringoStar: I believe it's xserver defaults. You can make it never sleep with some xorg.conf options
[22:12] <erUSUL> laptop_: lest check that the card is nt blocked what is the output of « sudo rfkill list all »
[22:12] <JeffFromOhio> Ok, so after a lot of searching, I just found out why I can't get OSS support working on Ubuntu 10.10. Apparently the devs REMOVED all OSS support in favor of OSSp, but OSSp is not yet working/included
[22:12] <JeffFromOhio> perfect
[22:12] <chaospsychex> how do i bridge two wifi cards?
[22:12] <GringoStar> soreau: thanks, I'll search that way
[22:12] <vooze> erUSUL,  did not work :(
[22:13] <JeffFromOhio> I think I'm just gonna revert to an, older version of Ubuntu, maybe 10.04
[22:13] <laptop_> erUSUL: wireless lan softblocked no hardblocked no
[22:13] <thearm> In case my question got lost, I need help setting the correct resoltuion.  The bottom taskbar is off the screen but the resolution is set correctly.
[22:13] <clavin12> I have a package that I cannot update or remove.
[22:13] <erUSUL> laptop_: :/ ???
[22:13] <clavin12> and it prevents me from installing certain other packages
[22:13] <soreau> GringoStar: This in /etc/X11/xorg.conf should work http://pastebin.com/HaFs31Wa
[22:13] <erUSUL> vooze: do you have a wlan0 in the « iwconfig » output?
[22:14] <laptop_> erUSUL: have i found the unsolvable problem?
[22:14] <erUSUL> laptop_: i really dunno shjould work... we can try newer drivers just in case. « sudo apt-get install linux-backports-modules-wireless-$(lsb_release -cs)-generic »
[22:14] <erUSUL> laptop_: and reboot
[22:14] <GregBenson> @thearm Have you tried adjusting it to see what one suits it best? It may be a simple fix
[22:14] <vooze> erUSUL,  yes
[22:15] <erUSUL> vooze: « sudo iwlist wlan0 scan » works?
[22:15] <thearm> Yes I trid almost all of the resolution available.
[22:15] <thearm> Tried installing the recommended nvidia driver.
[22:15] <thearm> Couldn't boot after that.  Ended up disabling it.
[22:15] <vooze> wlan0     Interface doesn't support scanning : Network is down
[22:16] <laptop_> erUSUL: will try and come back, thanks for support -oo
[22:16] <erUSUL> laptop_: no problem
[22:16] <chaospsychex> whats the command to see all of my network devices with as much info as possible ?
[22:16] <erUSUL> vooze: « sudo ifconfig wlan0 up »
[22:16] <rgb247> anyone can tell me why I can't join on the mysql channel?
[22:16] <thearm> I found some fixes on the net but I couldn't find the file it was asking me to modify
[22:16] <rgb247> I have a question about mysql, can I put it here?
[22:16] <GringoStar> soreau: I just need to add it at the end of the xorg.conf file?
[22:16] <soreau> chaospsychex: 'lspci -vvv' might help
[22:16] <soreau> GringoStar: sure
[22:16] <erUSUL> chaospsychex: "lshw -c Network" ? " ifconfig -a »
[22:16] <vooze> SIOCSIFFLAGS: Operation not possible due to RF-kill

[22:17] <erUSUL> vooze: you have one blocked? hardware ? soft ?
[22:17] <thearm> I'm guessing it's just not detecting my monitor properally.
[22:18] <vooze> hardblocked yes
[22:18] <chaospsychex> will an xbox 360 wifi usb adapter work with ubuntu ?
[22:18] <thearm> Almost all resolutions are vertically streatched.
[22:19] <naiad> I have an extremely jumpy mouse in X, more so with vertical movements than horizontal.  I've played with xset and acceleration but doesn't seem to resolve it.  anyone have an idea what i could check next?
[22:19] <erUSUL> vooze: you have to turn on the wifi in some button or key combo in your laptop
[22:20] <erUSUL> !who | vooze
[22:20] <soreau> GringoStar: You can thank me in several hours after you've realized it works ;)
[22:20] <thearm> I have a VPCF11NFX/B and the resolution is vertically streatched even though the corret resolution is selected.
[22:21] <erUSUL> vooze: so? it works now?
[22:21] <mohamedsucks> can anyone recommend a good photoshop type app?
[22:21] <KM0201> mohamedsucks: gimp

[22:22] <rgb247> soreau: can you tell me how to copy mysql databases from an old hard-disk to a new?
[22:22] <erUSUL> vooze: time for a facepalm or headdesk ;P
[22:22] <mohamedsucks> what about adobe lightroom?
[22:22] <rgb247> I can solve the problem by coping all files from /var/lib/mysql?
[22:22] <vooze> guess i choose facepalm :(
[22:22] <soreau> rgb247: I'm not too familiar with mysql. Maybe try #mysql?
[22:22] <hertz> I'm using Ubuntu 10.10 in my laptop (Acer - Aspire 4745). And I can't get my webcam working. I paste my lspci an my lsusb here -> http://paste.ubuntu.com/560043/

[22:23] <GringoStar> soreau: Thanks, I'll try it and be back in 15 or 20 minutes
[22:23] <rgb247> maybe someone else can help me
[22:23] <soreau> rgb247: I guess you need a registered nick
[22:23] <rgb247> I already have one, and logged in
[22:23] <KM0201> Jordan_U: do you have a second for a PM?
[22:23] <soreau> rgb247: Yep, it says that in the topic
[22:24] <mohamedsucks> q
[22:24] <Jordan_U> KM0201: Yes, but I prefer to keep support discussion in-channel.
[22:24] <rgb247> anyone know how can I move all mysql database tables from an old hard-disk to a new one?
[22:24] <KM0201> Jordan_U: its not really a support question...
[22:24] <erUSUL> rgb247: mysql dump restore?
[22:25] <Jordan_U> KM0201: Ok.
[22:25] <jrib> rgb247: mysqldump?  Ask #mysql
[22:25] <rgb247> erUSUL: I can't with mysql dump, because the old hard-disk driver is dead(only the OS)
[22:25] <rgb247> so I have access only at physical files
[22:25] <rgb247> I can't ask there, because I can't join there...
[22:26] <jrib> rgb247: erm, why can't you join there?

[22:36] <jrib> arch_nme: that page should tell you how to actually configure preferences.  « man synaptics » should let you find the option you want to manipulate specifically
[22:36] <arch_nme> I do not have a touchpad tab under mouse preferences
[22:37] <hertz> ne7work, [20:34:49] <erUSUL> ne7work: depends on what you actually want to do. basic command should be  « wget -r --no-parent url/to/index.html »
[22:37] <laptop_> erUSUL: hello i am back still no joy
[22:37] <jrib> arch_nme: don't use gui
[22:37] <arch_nme> I don't think my rouchpad is detecting as synaptics
[22:37] <Dave158> ne7work: You can't download a full directory without tarring or zipping it first...
[22:38] <arch_nme> when I did xinput list it shows as PS/2 touchpad
[22:38] <jrib> arch_nme: I see.  What does « xinput list » return?
[22:38] <ne7work> hertz, Yes this work correctly I think wget -r --no-parent http://connie.slackware.com/~alien/multilib/13.1/slackware64-compat32/
[22:38] <rickeh> Hello i'm looking for a webinterface for my ftp server any idea's i've tried googling but most of the webgui's are outdated
[22:38] <jrib> arch_nme: hrmm.  Don't know then.  Maybe check /var/log/Xorg.0.log to see what driver gets loaded?
[22:39] <laptop_> erUSUL: tried the linux backports install you gave me and couldn't find package
[22:39] <hertz> ne7work, ^-^ but I believe this command is on Alien's multilib tutorial =x

[23:12] <erUSUL> !intel
[23:12] <pauru> erUSUL, nvidia FX 5200 with the version 173 (recommended)
[23:12] <erUSUL> pauru: have you tried with « gksudo nvidia-settings » ?
[23:12] <stanman246> Jake2|cfl, which account?
[23:13] <stanman246> Jake2|cfl, if you want to change your user account's password, don't sudo
[23:13] <Jake2|cfl> stanman246: my account which also happens to be the "main" account
[23:13] <pauru> erUSUL, Yeah
[23:13] <G_o_o_> jake2 | cfl: sudo passwd username
[23:13] <stanman246> yep
[23:13] <stanman246> or just passwd, when ur loggedin as that user
[23:13] <Da|Mummy> im having trouble turning an exe file into executable, with properties/permissions, it only toggles
[23:14] <erUSUL> pauru: no joy? try « rm ~/.config/monitors.xml » and then run « gksudo nvidia-settings » again
[23:14] <Jake2|cfl> stanman246:  and g00 , then why did it say successful?
[23:14] <stanman246> remember that you changed your root password
[23:14] <stanman246> not ur user's one
[23:14] <pauru> erUSUL, Ok, let me see
[23:15] <stanman246> sudo [action] means: [action] this as root
[23:15] <stanman246> so: sudo passwd means: change sudo's password
[23:15] <Jake2|cfl> stanman246: but it STATED my user name when asking for the current password.
[23:15] <stanman246> did you do passwd without sudo?
[23:15] <jordanm> !kms
[23:15] <Jake2|cfl> not yet pwd wo sudo
[23:16] <erUSUL> stanman246: no it means run passwd as root so change root's password. which btw is something we do not support here

[23:18] <jordanm> I have a laptop with i915 intel card. X worked from the livecd but post-installation X fails to start. The fatal error appears to be "(EE) intel(0): No kernel modesetting driver detected." on 10.10. I thought that this KMS stuff for i915 would be worked out on the .35 kernel. I have seen some documentation in regards to the driver, but they were older documentation that seems to be for resolution problems
[23:18] <stanman246> touche

[23:19] <kyle___> so i installed a game using a .sh script. I want to now remove it.  running the sh just installs again.  How do i uninstall (there is an uninstall.ico so i  guess you can)
[23:20] <jordanm> kyle___: rm the installation directory. most games let you select but it should be self-contained in /opt, /usr/local, or somewhere in your homedir if you installed as non-root
[23:21] <Jordan_U> kyle___: That unfortunately is why it's best to stick with packaged software. If you pastebin the script we can probably figure out what it installed where and remove it manually.
[23:21] <jordanm> the "script" most likely contains a encoded zip file, and is probably very large

[23:28] <LifeEscalade> im having a heck of a time using remote desktop. when im on my home network, remote desktop works just fine, but the minute that I leave the network and say go to work, when I try to connect all it does is time out. there anything I'm doing wrong?
[23:28] <drthoth> preferred way for me, is to get it from oracle and update alternatives
[23:29] <constl> LifeEscalade: opened the port in the rooter?
[23:29] <share> itaylor57: .bashrc
[23:29] <LifeEscalade> constl: what do you mean rooter?

[23:30] <drthoth> why doesnt ubuntu update the kernel every day!? why!?
[23:31] <drthoth> why dont you use the 2.6.3 kernel
[23:31] <drthoth> and update beyond the stable release
[23:31] <LifeEscalade> fluvvell: thats what i assumed, and yes my port that im using for remote desktop is forwarded

[23:32] <drthoth> if you want 2.6.36, update to it
[23:32] <constl> LifeEscalade: Usually use this tool to check whether i have opened a port correctly http://www.t1shopper.com/tools/port-scan/
[23:32] <neiz> H3r0: as far as I know, 2.6.x where x is odd means an unstable release.  I believe ubuntu only uses the even numbered ones to ensure maximum stability
[23:32] <fluvvell> LifeEscalade, if there is any way you can remote test the port while you are at home, ie back in via the router...
[23:32] <coldfront> constl: http://tryout-chen.blogspot.com/2011/01/ubuntu-jdk5-installationsetup-for.html try that?
[23:32] <H3r0> drthoth and erUSUL - I think that this kernel is stable.
[23:32] <share> itaylor57: to english lol
[23:32] <Snakkah> For some reason, certain characters are being replaced by a black square in some places. Like right now, for the Ubuntu font it's the letter N. Why is this happening and how do I get it to stop?
[23:32] <fluvvell> LifeEscalade, sometimes the best planned port forwarding goes astray :)
[23:33] <piper69> stanman246: i feel stupid..i asked the same question and google answered me lol
[23:33] <freennodeuser135> hi is there a torrent app that has auto shutdown when download / upload complete
[23:33] <TTilus> neiz: no, it does not
[23:33]  * piper69 can't fix stupid!
[23:33] <drthoth> H3r0, have you tested it against EVERY app in the repos?
[23:33] <stanman246> piper69, it took me some time to get it working, but now i've got a running gnome desktop in a headless server
[23:33] <Snakkah> I'm running Ubuntu 10.10 and I have an ATI Radeon card, if that helps.
[23:33] <fluvvell> LifeEscalade, unless you have ufw running blocking a port when source is outside your local lan?
[23:33] <TTilus> H3r0: the kernel in itself may be stable, yes, but it is _different_
[23:33] <H3r0> drthoth - no
[23:33] <constl> coldfront: So it's ok to use older version repos ?
[23:33] <share> itaylor57: I typed env it shows some info
[23:34] <Jordan_U> kyle___: That script does not have an uninstall option. Running this command should remove the files the installer installed: sudo rm -i /usr/local/bin/{vegastrike,vegaserver,vssetup,mesher}
[23:34] <H3r0> TTilus - so how can I know when the ubuntu update the kernel?
[23:34] <The-Compiler> Hi there! Got a small problem: I created my own acpi events to rotate my tablet's screen when it's swiveled down... It does not work. However, when I do sudo service acpid stop, then do sudo acpid, it works like it should
[23:34] <coldfront> I don't see why not but after i install jdk5 i would remove the old repo
[23:34] <erUSUL> H3r0: newer versions of ubuntu will have a newer kernel.
[23:34] <Fudge> hi, how do you determine a different superblock to use using fsck on an ext3 partition?> fsck suggests 8193, is there a way to determine which superblock to try if its damaged?
[23:34] <TTilus> H3r0: and with os stable release you are _very_ carefull with change, _any_ change
[23:34] <elias79> so dban wipes all disks or can i select the one i need ?
[23:35] <TTilus> H3r0: thats how it becomes stable  ;)
[23:35] <erUSUL> H3r0: but in a releasesd version there wont be a kernel change
[23:35] <freennodeuser135> hi is there a torrent app that has auto shutdown when download / upload complete
[23:35] <yondering> hola.. any ideas why I'm seeing a chain of process pinging 127.0.0.1 in xubuntu?
[23:35] <erUSUL> Fudge: it says in the man page
[23:35] <drthoth> you can update the kernel yourself if you want it
[23:35] <pauru> How will i fix that guys?
[23:35] <drthoth> is .36 the one with the massive flash improvement? or is it already out
[23:35] <erUSUL> Fudge: For  filesystems  with  1k  blocksizes, a backup superblock can be found at block 8193; for filesystems with 2k blocksizes, at block 16384; and for 4k blocksizes, at block 32768.
[23:35] <LifeEscalade> fluvvell, dont think so, when I use my windows partition and vncviewer it just says "server.imtrying.toaccess has closed the connection"
[23:35] <piper69> stanman246: ;0 mine too keep failinf
[23:36] <piper69> *failing
[23:36] <erUSUL> Fudge: default is 4K blocks
[23:36] <kyle___> Jordan_U:  and delete the folder with game in, and i'm done..
[23:36] <kyle___> Jordan_U:  Thanks.
[23:36] <erUSUL> Fudge: so you should pass -b 32768
[23:36] <stanman246> ?
[23:36] <stanman246> piper69, ?
[23:36] <Jordan_U> kyle___: You're welcome.
[23:36] <kyle___> new question, ubuntu 10.4 updte to 10.10, easy way? CD?
[23:37] <LifeEscalade> constl, Thanks for that link. it does show that the port is responding correctly
[23:37] <erUSUL> !upgrade | kyle___
[23:37] <Dakrav> are there other visualizer things for RhythmBox?
[23:37] <freennodeuser135> Kyle__, like someone will answer you they all ignore everyone
[23:37] <H3r0> erUSUL TTilus - so does ubuntu check all app in the new kernel before the update?
[23:37] <Jordan_U> !upgrade | kyle___
[23:37] <kyle___> anyone had issues with upgrading?
[23:38] <erUSUL> nothing i couldn't fix
[23:38] <piper69> stanman246: http://paste.ubuntu.com/560060/
[23:38] <constl> LifeEscalade: Is there a chance the outgoing traffic for that port is blocked by your office network? It has happened to me before with SSH
[23:38] <piercedwater> I know this isnt Ubuntu related, but does any have experience with Dell Poweredge servers?
[23:38] <barf> I would like to make an ubuntu base install on and external HDD how can I do that from an already installed CLI base install?
[23:39] <erUSUL> piercedwater: #ubuntu-server
[23:39] <LifeEscalade> constl: but wouldnt that prevent me from accessing through remote desktop through my local network too?
[23:39] <barf> debootstrap?
[23:40] <mrken_> backgrounds
[23:40] <barf> piercedwater: I run Dell PowerEdge 2950
[23:40] <Condorito> Hi. OK, some help please. Need to; 1. Uninstall all Nvidia x-org drivers stuff and 2. Install Intel(R) G41 drivers. Any recommendations, please?
[23:40] <piercedwater> barf: may i pm?
[23:40] <barf> sure
[23:40] <TTilus> ive got this tp t41 with ati rv250 and an external display connected to vga, it boots up nicely to mirrored mode, but whatever i try to do with xrandr or the monitors gui tool it totally craps the display, only mouse cursor and occasional changes in messy patterns on the screen suggest it being still alive, and i can get to console with c-a-f1, and if i used gui the old mirrored mode comes back after a while
[23:40] <TTilus> any suggestions
[23:41] <coldfront> TTilus intel card?
[23:41] <coldfront> oh nothing
[23:41] <coldfront> ati
[23:41] <H3r0> TTilus - so how can I know when the ubuntu update the kernel?
[23:41] <piper69> as soon as i start nx it dies right away
[23:42] <erUSUL> H3r0: you only get a new kernel with a new release of the distro.
[23:42] <erUSUL> H3r0: 10.04 has one kernel 32; 10.10 has 35 and 11.04 will have 36 or 37
[23:42] <coldfront> TTilus does your display look like its offset and overlaping?
[23:43] <H3r0> erUSUL - one kernel for 4 mounts?
[23:43] <mongy> 10.04 has the 10.10 kernel available tho doesnt it?
[23:43] <TTilus> coldfront: might be that too, can't really tell, its so crapped up, sharp patterns with nothing else in common with the desktop it had, but colors
[23:44] <Pici> erUSUL: We're already at 2.6.38.1.15 on Natty.
[23:44] <coldfront> yeah i had some trouble with my dual display i didnt even use it because there was a problem with the intel drivers in the kernel or something like that never got it fixed so i dont use it lol
[23:45] <Condorito> Any help please? I was working on something from work which I need to finish (its CAD) when my graphics card konked out, and I am now stuck in low res. Need a fast track solution to get me going again, please.
[23:45] <Condorito> I am asking nicely...
[23:45] <erUSUL> Pici: ok; tyvm
[23:45] <erUSUL> H3r0: 6 months
[23:45] <nunya> how can I start up as root?
[23:46] <H3r0> nunya - why do you want to do it?
[23:46] <erUSUL> H3r0: if you really wnat the newest kernel allways you have options a) compile your own b) use kernel-ppa
[23:46] <H3r0> it is so dangerous
[23:46] <nunya> H3r0: messed up /etc/sudoers
[23:46] <H3r0> erUSUL - thanks
[23:47] <alk> greeting o/
[23:47] <NixGeek> anyone know why the linux-backports-modules-compat-wireless-2.6.34-2.6.32-28-generic dependency for the linux-backports-modules-wireless-lucid-generic package isn't in the repos?  I can't using the newest kernel because my wireless adapter needs them.
[23:47] <erUSUL> Condorito: "graphics card konked out" what dos that mean?
[23:47] <share> export LANG="en_US:en" to .profile :)
[23:47] <H3r0> erUSUL - I am very interesting in the testing how can I read more about it?the process ,etc...
[23:47] <alk> what should I do if my gnome desktop in ubuntu is semi-broken? task bar doesn't display any apps in it
[23:47] <alk> and system freezes when running synaptic GUI
[23:48] <erUSUL> H3r0: it depends if you want to test ubuntu kernel or the kernel.org vanilla kernel
[23:48] <youngblood> i need to use my iso image as a repository for installing some network software. Does it matter what my mount point is?
[23:48] <erUSUL> H3r0: there is a #ubuntu-kernel channel iirc
[23:48] <nunya> how can i start as root, please
[23:48] <TTilus> nunya: http://www.cyberciti.biz/faq/grub-boot-into-single-user-mode/
[23:49] <Condorito> does not show any card data when the computer first boots up, monitor says No Signal. Reverted to the Intell onboard driver.
[23:49] <gunndawg> nunya, you dont want to start as root, kinda dangerous
[23:49] <erUSUL> nunya: short answer -> you can't
[23:49] <Daekdroom> !panel
[23:49] <bastidrazor> nunya: use a liveCD
[23:49] <erUSUL> Condorito: so it is a hardware isssue. we can do nothing about it ...
[23:49] <constl> coldfront: Thanks buddy, it worked!
[23:49] <coldfront> alk you try this http://linuxfud.wordpress.com/2007/02/14/how-to-reset-ubuntugnome-settings-to-defaults-without-re-installing/

[23:51] <gimpy4982> Ubuntu Server 10.04 x64 here, I have 6 drives in an LVM VG and for some reason one of the drives (I'm not sure if it is the same one each boot) loses the primary GTP table after a reboot.  Any ideas?
[23:51] <Condorito> I know. the card is now out and I am running on the on board intel graphics. I need to know; what is the Intel G41 driver for linux, please?

[23:52] <dobri> hello world
[23:52] <erUSUL> Condorito: it is called intel,. it should come preinstalled and load without any configuration needed
[23:52] <schwinn434> erUSUL: I'll check the logs
[23:52] <Guest64806> wo
[23:52] <Guest64806> exit

[23:54] <Snakkah> For some reason, certain characters are being replaced by a black square in some places. Like right now, for the Ubuntu font it's the letter N. Why is this happening and how do I get it to stop?
[23:54] <Snakkah> It also happens with the number 9
[23:55] <piper69> how do i realse an ip on iface eth1 and renew it thru dhcp
[23:55] <schwinn434> erUSUL: not sure how to check the logs
[23:55] <Condorito> Okay. And how about setting resolutions? That X-Nvidia Settings is still on the Administration menu, and I want to get rid of it.
[23:55] <schwinn434> I see syslog but that is all
[23:56] <erUSUL> schwinn434: any text viewer editor will do
[23:56] <Snakkah> The lowercase h is doing it too on some webpages
[23:56] <coldfront> Snakkah what kind of graphics card

[23:57] <erUSUL> Condorito: if you used nvidia you maybe have to move the xorg.conf file out of the way « sudo mv /etc/X11/{xorg.conf,xorg.conf.bak} »
[23:58] <erUSUL> Condorito: for tweaking resolution with intel drivers... System>Preferences>Monitors
[23:58] <Snakkah> coldfront, it's an ATI Radeon 3100
[23:58] <coldfront> because i say that on the forums snakkah people are saying they have that problem with AT Radeon cards http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1576751&page=2
