| Loshki | ComradeHaz`: only that the output line is produced by someone somewhere executing a mknod command incorrectly. If you can find that, you might be able to fix the problem... | 00:01 |

| induz | bazhang, i get this http://paste.ubuntu.com/560429/ | 00:03 |
| bazhang | induz, what did you change | 00:04 |
| afman | @erUSUL It doesn't show up up with lsusb but it works in windows which is the funny thing | 00:04 |
| === Lobo is now known as Guest40371 | ||
| induz | bazhang, i have not changed anything | 00:04 |
| afman | @LetsGo67 I had that same problem with an old laptop. I had to go and find a different wireless driver. The proprietary one that came with Ubuntu didn't work. | 00:04 |
| erUSUL | afman: then maybe the problem is the cf to usb converter ... does any other usb device work in the converter? | 00:04 |
| bazhang | induz, did you not see my suggestion earlier? that looks to be your only option | 00:04 |
| induz | bazhang, I am follwing your suggestion oly | 00:05 |
| afman | @erUSUL I don't have another device to try unfortunately :-(. | 00:05 |
| induz | only | 00:05 |
| erUSUL | afman: not even a usb thumbdrive? | 00:05 |
| afman | @erUSUL sorry misunderstood what that was no I know the port works if that's what you mean. | 00:05 |
| erUSUL | afman: ok | 00:06 |
| afman | @erUSUL The card works fine under Windows | 00:06 |
| induz | bazhang, I follwed this web site https://launchpad.net/~jonabeck/+archive/ppa | 00:06 |

| Loshki | ComradeHaz`: sorry, I think you need more specialist help than I can provide. Keep asking... | 00:07 |
| afman | @LetsGo67 You'll probably have to find an alternate driver for your card. | 00:07 |

| theTrav | I just installed ubuntu server on a vm, it can ping everything in my network, however apt-get fails to find any repositories.

| bazhang | induz, I never sent you that particular ppa | 00:08 |
| bazhang | induz, did you add-apt-repository to get it? | 00:09 |
| theTrav | hmm, actually... I think I probably did mess up the install | 00:09 |
| theTrav | I entered the host without the port details | 00:09 |

| CarltonPecot | I won't paste "Please check out http://GameNTech.com Great site for people who like Video Games, Computers, and Technology :)" again :(. | 00:55 |
| tripelb | maciej_, If I do that I'll (update what I have already) (reinstall the entire suite) I only want to install one part that does not come on the livecd. | 00:56 |
| george_ | umm, is there a way on how to restore the login font to defaults??? | 00:56 |
| induz | bazhang, have u seent the screenshot i sent u?? | 00:57 |
| bazhang | induz, sorry I missed it | 00:57 |
| Smashcat | ahrotahntee: sorry, went for a coffee - try " grep eth0 | /var/log/dmesg " | 00:57 |
| induz | bazhang, http://i.imgur.com/OAGKM.png | 00:57 |
| tripelb | maciej_, you are confusing me with all kinds of GUI stuff I didnt ask for. I only need the PACKAGENAME to install it in terminal. The IT I want to install is the openoffice database program | 00:57 |
| Ahrotahntee | Smashcat: no instance of eth0 in dmesg | 00:58 |
| quizme | how can i tell if openssl is installed or not ? | 00:58 |
| Smashcat | eth1 ? | 00:58 |
| Dragonlord1988 | Pantaloonix??? | 00:59 |
| Ahrotahntee | Smashcat: ifconfig shows my ifaces are eth0 and lo | 00:59 |
| bazhang | induz, doing that would erase everything on it | 00:59 |
| tripelb | I want to install the openoffice database program in terminal. How do I finish this: sudo apt-get install --------- | 00:59 |
| Dragonlord1988 | any GNAA members here? | 00:59 |
| induz | bazhang, I creat the directory and it takes me here:http://i.imgur.com/fc2aG.png | 00:59 |
| Smashcat | Ahrotahntee: So eth0 must be listed in dmesg - that's where the kernel actually finds it | 00:59 |
| maciej_ | tripleb: oh sorry, not sure | 00:59 |
| Mal_ | tripelb: try using the 'apt-cache' command :P | 00:59 |
| bazhang | tripelb, apt-cache search openoffice and take a look | 00:59 |
| Diamondcite | tripelb: openoffice itself is an all in one application isn't it? | 00:59 |

| Ahrotahntee | Smashcat: I wish I was kidding; No instances in dmesg | 01:00 |
| Ahrotahntee | Smashcat: and yes, this is the machine I am currently on | 01:00 |
| ComradeHaz` | Anybody able to offer any advice on the issues described here: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=10413154#post10413154 | 01:00 |
| tripelb | Diamondcite, I found this one the web: The Database program is not installed with Ubuntu 10.04 out of the box. It simply does not fit on the CD. | 01:00 |
| Smashcat | Ahrotahntee: You're looking in the current dmesg, not an old one? You can also use " dmesg | grep eth0 " | 01:00 |
| induz | bazhang, It has not erased anything so far from my ipod touch | 01:01 |
| Ahrotahntee | Smashcat: yes current, will run that one now | 01:01 |
| Ahrotahntee | Smashcat: [ 14.680040] eth0: no IPv6 routers present | 01:01 |
| Ahrotahntee | Smashcat: only instance of it | 01:01 |
| induz | bazhang, what i am doing wrong or this particular device is not listed on Model on GTKPOd | 01:01 |
| Smashcat | Ahrotahntee: Ah so maybe the ethernet port wasn't connected to the router at boot? | 01:02 |
| RedLance | Just installed Ubuntu 10 Server on my file server. OS is on a seperate 80gb drive. It never asked me where to mount the storage drives...what's the easiest way to do that? They all have exsisting data. | 01:02 |
| Ahrotahntee | Smashcat: it was | 01:02 |
| tripelb | re OpenOffice DataBase, look what I found!!! | 01:02 |
| tripelb | 8.5. How do I get my Microsoft Access files converted? | 01:02 |
| tripelb | With the help of MDB Tools, your Microsoft Access databases and schemas can be converted to MySQL, Oracle, Sybase, or PostgreSQL, and OpenOffice.org works with these databases as a backend. Note that this is not part of the OpenOffice.org package. | 01:02 |
| FloodBot2 | tripelb: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation. | 01:02 |
| Ahrotahntee | Smashcat: hold up a second, i will be right back | 01:02 |
| bluedust | Ahhhhhh I cant get this stupid ext hd to work | 01:03 |

| Smashcat | Ahrotahntee: You can also try using mii-tool - e.g. " mii-tool -v eth0 " | 01:04 |
| tripelb | What I posted ^^ suggests that I need mysql to work with openoffice as a database. -- this is getting deeper and deeper. Any help? I havent used a database in 20+ years (blush) and my thoughts are clean and unimpeded by what's out now. (I hae student-taught in a datastructures class at university) | 01:04 |

| bouklas | i need some help | 01:07 |
| bouklas | anybody? | 01:07 |
| Dementio | anyone, anyone, beuler? | 01:07 |
| Ahrotahntee | Smashcat: mii-tool is a package I would need to install? | 01:07 |
| Smashcat | Ahrotahntee: Yep, if you don't have it - it's pretty small | 01:08 |
| Ahrotahntee | Smashcat: apparently not; I'm getting operation not permitted | 01:08 |
| Smashcat | Ahrotahntee: Are you root? | 01:08 |
| Ahrotahntee | sorry | 01:08 |
| bluedust | yes unfortunatly ive back up all my file before installing ubuntu and now i cant access them | 01:08 |
| Smashcat | Ahrotahntee: np | 01:08 |
| Ahrotahntee | Smashcat: sorry, that would be Operation not supported | 01:08 |
| Ahrotahntee | Smashcat: my silly brain was filling in blanks; that means I'm unable to measure my own bandwidth? | 01:08 |
| Omen_20 | is there any way to edit the info Evolution displays in a notification? Right now it just says I have mail. I'd like to see the subject at least. | 01:09 |
| Smashcat | Ahrotahntee: Well, it's puzzling that you're not seeing the driver being loaded in dmesg. Unless you have it loaded via some other script after boot | 01:09 |
| Ahrotahntee | Smashcat: nothing I set up, let me have a look-see | 01:09 |
| Diamondcite | bluedust: Automated backup.. and it seems to have done some encryption too... That can make it difficult, if it wasn't encrypted it should be mountable... | 01:09 |
| bluedust | ive read some forums and all of them say im screwed | 01:10 |
| Smashcat | Ahrotahntee: Try " lspci | grep thernet " | 01:10 |
| Diamondcite | bluedust: At the moment the only way I can think of for you is to use VirtualBox Personal Use Edition and have some sort of windows inside it to try to get at your files again =/ | 01:10 |

| Ahrotahntee | Smashcat: yay, we found it! | 01:11 |
| Smashcat | Ahrotahntee: Hah | 01:11 |
| bazhang | induz, sorry, a bit busy at the moment | 01:11 |
| Smashcat | Ahrotahntee: Might be worth Googling that name - it seems to be behaving strangely | 01:11 |
| bluedust | well i just bought a 40G ssd and Im limited to what i can put on my pc | 01:11 |
| Ahrotahntee | Smashcat: It works, I just can't seem to measure my up/down speed | 01:12 |
| Smashcat | Ahrotahntee: Well you can get an idea by just creating a big file, then transferring it to another machine. If you're getting around 10MB/sec, then it's 100mbps | 01:13 |
| DrummerBoy38 | does anyone have a statistical graph demoing the damage to hardware based on Windows 7 versus a recent Ubuntu when crashes happen | 01:13 |
| induz | bazhang, ok when u have time see the page i sent u | 01:13 |
| Ahrotahntee | Smashcat: no, I know my peak speeds, I want to know current operating speeds | 01:13 |
| Dementio | i just want hdmi 5.1 audio to work, is that so much to ask | 01:13 |
| Ahrotahntee | Smashcat: which is queryable from /proc | 01:13 |
| Ahrotahntee | Smashcat: (to my understanding) | 01:14 |
| aeon-ltd | DrummerBoy38: err no damage really comes to hw during crashes, besides corrupt writes to hdds, unless it overheated | 01:14 |
| Diamondcite | bluedust: You did use a very windows specific backup method.. so I agree with the forums, you are screwed unless you have access to another windows computer. Maybe this time you can copy the files without having to enter a password just to open the new drive ^_^ | 01:14 |
| pcypher | snmp help please | 01:14 |
| coz_ | Dementio, I dont think it too much to ask... have you also tried the #alsa channel and the #pulseaudio channel? | 01:14 |
| gbear14275 | what is the program for burning disc on server? | 01:14 |
| kgee | hi from n.z | 01:14 |

| kgee | hi coz | 01:15 |
| bluedust | is there a way i can delete the proprietary software and just have a regular drive | 01:15 |

| === MC8 is now known as fflapjac | ||
| Smashcat | Ahrotahntee: Ok, got you - I'm sure there's a tool for that, I've written scripts to track network traffic, but I don't know of a tool to do it off of the top of my head, sorry | 01:16 |
| Diamondcite | bluedust: You probably CAN.. but it WILL DELETE everything on that drive at the moment to do so. | 01:16 |
| Ahrotahntee | Smashcat: conky has a feature, but it's not working; I'm trying to find where ubuntu keeps that specific data so I can either symlink it, or write an appropriate script to intermediate the data | 01:16 |
| bluedust | well i can stick all on gf computer for the time being | 01:16 |
| gbear14275 | what is the program for burning disc on server? | 01:17 |
| bluedust | do i just format it or is their somthing special i need to do | 01:17 |
| gbear14275 | what is the command for burning disc on server? | 01:17 |
| Smashcat | Ahrotahntee: Well all I did was have a script that kept polling "ifconfig eth0" then working out how many bytes had been transferred since it last polled. Pretty simple to do | 01:17 |
| kgee | has anyone had probs with sound on there Asus laptop | 01:17 |
| Diamondcite | bluedust: Linux can handle NTFS to a certain degree, though I'm not sure what a 1TB drive should use x.x | 01:17 |
| Ahrotahntee | Smashcat: I will keep that in reserve if I can't figure this out, thank you kindly for your time :) | 01:18 |
| Smashcat | Ahrotahntee: No problem, good luck ;-) | 01:18 |
| kgee | can some one give me some help | 01:18 |
| Diamondcite | bluedust: To be honest I'm not sure, I never had such drives, I just buy a USB HDD dock + a 1TB drive... | 01:18 |

| bluedust | if i do fat as primary can i secondary as ntfs | 01:19 |
| noonian | gbear14275, trying to burn an .iso image? | 01:19 |
| bluedust | for multiple OS | 01:19 |
| Diamondcite | bluedust: Unless you split the drive into say two 500GB partitions, that can't be done. | 01:20 |
| gbear14275 | noonian, yes on server | 01:20 |
| bluedust | they both have to be the same exact size | 01:20 |
| bluedust | right | 01:20 |
| Diamondcite | bluedust: No they don't have to be, just saying, you can't have 2 1TB partions on a 1TB drive. | 01:21 |
| bluedust | I know that hehehehe | 01:21 |
| weebit | lol | 01:21 |
| bluedust | unless it was a quantum drive | 01:21 |
| * weebit falls outta chair laughing | 01:21 | |

| gugurang | In a network of 50 PC's would DHCP traffic affect the performance of the network, or is it negligible? this network is sharing only 1MB internet connection and students use it for browsing only | 01:34 |

| Fezzler | Need some help assessing my Ubuntu Lucid 10.04 set up. First, I have 2 hard drives. How do I see if the boot hard drive is full or experiencing errors? | 01:36 |
| Fezzler | Second, my sound is all screwed up. I'm running real time kernel to get low latency. | 01:36 |
| Ahrotahntee | Can anyone think of any security risk of running logcheck as root? | 01:37 |
| JmJ288 | could someone help me with an ipod issue? | 01:37 |
| xelister | how to do like sux, but with both X and audio working? | 01:37 |
| Ahrotahntee | or is there a way to permit a user to use iptables? | 01:37 |
| Fezzler | Lastly, the upgrade to Lucid switched my nvidia driver but now that I'm RT kernel, I can't install my preferred nvidia driver. | 01:37 |
| Fezzler | That's it. | 01:37 |
| pinoyoragon | ComradeHaz': i'm of different specie... hehehhe i come from different background... not IT/CS or something | 01:37 |
| AndrewMC | luketheduke: go to System > Preferences > Startup Applications, find GNOME login sound and diable it by un-ticking the box next to it. | 01:38 |
| kstar66 | bazhang that didnt work | 01:38 |
| xelister | Ahrotahntee: like, SUID it? but sounds unsafe.. why? | 01:38 |
| ActionParsnip | Fezzler: remove the driver, reboot, then reinstall it | 01:38 |
| bazhang | kstar66, launch from terminal then, give exact error messages in paste.ubuntu.com | 01:38 |
| pinoyoragon | ComradeHaz': I just started playing with Linux System Administration a year ago :) | 01:38 |

| kstar66 | no one knows how to bring back min/max/restore on window perimeter? | 01:39 |
| Ahrotahntee | xelister: logcheck detects portscans and I want it to automatically set my firewall to drop offenders | 01:39 |
| edbian | kstar66, metacity --replace& | 01:39 |
| Fezzler | ActionParsnip>> I tried. Would the RT kernel prevent that? That's what happens when I try that. | 01:39 |
| edbian | kstar66, or compiz --replace& if you're running that | 01:39 |
| ActionParsnip | kstar66: press ALT+F2 and run: metacity --replace should do it | 01:39 |
| bazhang | kstar66, yes I do. please try what I suggested and give *exact * error message | 01:39 |
| xelister | Ahrotahntee: make log write to some file, and root script read that file. But. there are probably ready scripts for what yhou describe | 01:40 |
| ActionParsnip | Fezzler: not sure, never bothered with it. Shouldn't as far as I am aware | 01:40 |
| Ahrotahntee | xelister: it can't use iptables (being non-root), so I either need to run logcheck as root | 01:40 |
| Ahrotahntee | xelister: or that | 01:40 |
| ActionParsnip | Fezzler: I'm guessing you do a lot of sound production... | 01:40 |
| kstar66 | alt f2 doesnt do it | 01:40 |
| kstar66 | and error message pops up | 01:40 |
| bazhang | kstar66, I said in terminal | 01:40 |
| kstar66 | didnt work there either | 01:40 |
| bazhang | !work | kstar66 | 01:41 |
| ubottu | kstar66: Doesn't work is a strong statement. Does it sit on the couch all day? Does it want more money? Is it on IRC all the time? Please be specific! Examples of what doesn't work tend to help too. | 01:41 |
| Ahrotahntee | xelister: I can setup sudo to only allow the account to use the one program, right? | 01:41 |
| bazhang | kstar66, need the error | 01:41 |

| kstar66 | for compiz--replace and metacity--replace | 01:42 |
| ActionParsnip | kstar66: there is a SPACE | 01:42 |
| bazhang | kstar66, then you're using the wrong command or spelling it incorrectly | 01:42 |
| gunndawg | antivirtel: sounds like a video driver issue if you cant go above 1024 x 768, I could be wrong though | 01:42 |
| bazhang | ActionParsnip, nice catch | 01:42 |
| ActionParsnip | kstar66: metacity --replace look at the space. I give the exact command so you can COPY it | 01:42 |
| ActionParsnip | bazhang: users seem to be blind to spaces, they learn fast :) | 01:43 |
| ActionParsnip | kstar66: metacity is the commands, the --replace is an option on the command | 01:43 |

| ActionParsnip | mikebot: use windows7's ability to resize it's own partition, then install Ubuntu to the free space | 02:03 |
| mikebot | ActionParsnip: What about the grub thing? | 02:03 |
| tripelb | mikebot I do believe that that's the only time you can install to do that! | 02:03 |

| sexcopter | hi, i'm not familiar with bash scripting, if i call a command and want to do something based on the exit status, is there a standard way to do it> | 02:22 |
| themonarch | ive done this | 02:22 |
| species | themonarch: paste what it echos back to you into paste.ubuntu.com | 02:22 |

| species | themonarch: just to clarify, did you say ubuntu is installed on the external hard disk? | 02:23 |
| themonarch | http://pastie.org/1513510 | 02:23 |
| themonarch | yeah, | 02:24 |
| species | themonarch: well, line 14 indicates that your disk is working properly | 02:24 |
| ActionParsnip | themonarch: ok cool, can you run: lsb_release -a; uname -a; echo; dpkg -l | grep linux-image | 02:24 |
| itaylor57 | sexcopter: $? holds the results of the last system command | 02:24 |
| ActionParsnip | themonarch: what is the output? | 02:24 |
| themonarch | "no lsb modules are available" | 02:25 |
| clavin12 | actionparsnip: Eh, the thread doesn't offer too much in the way of help. | 02:25 |
| species | themonarch: there's more than that... | 02:25 |

| === root is now known as Guest79181 | ||
| themonarch | and sorry, my "I" button fucks up | 02:26 |
| ActionParsnip | clavin12: it seems to already have the driver in the OS. You could install ndisgtk and use the windows driver | 02:26 |
| gpc | themonarch: please keep the language family friendly | 02:26 |
| themonarch | http://pastie.org/1513516 | 02:26 |

| Niglop | after i burn a movie to disc, I open it up and it is all video ts and audio ts files, is there a way I can play it on my pc? | 02:27 |
| species | themonarch: you can put all those commands on one line | 02:27 |
| themonarch | i did? | 02:27 |
| themonarch | copypasta | 02:27 |
| species | themonarch: the ; makes sure they wait | 02:27 |
| species | oh, sorry, pastie didnt load right away :3 | 02:27 |
| themonarch | i put it all on the same line | 02:27 |
| themonarch | didnt i? | 02:27 |
| ActionParsnip | themonarch: you can free up 120Mb with: sudo apt-get clean; sudo apt-get --purge remove linux-image-2.6.32-24-generic; sudo apt-get --purge autoremove | 02:28 |
| ActionParsnip | themonarch: yes, its all 1 command | 02:28 |
| species | ActionParsnip: i dont think thats going to help; he wants to get the rest of his 2tb hdd | 02:28 |
| daze21 | just curious... sometimes when I use wget for a webpage, I can't get the images. is there something I can do so the images will work? | 02:28 |
| species | ActionParsnip: df indicates its mounting properly so the question is, why cant he access it all | 02:28 |
| themonarch | okay | 02:28 |
| themonarch | now what did i just do? | 02:28 |
| ActionParsnip | species: true but it helps | 02:28 |
| Niglop | after i burn a movie to disc, I open it up and it is all video ts and audio ts files, is there a way I can play it on my pc? | 02:28 |
| ActionParsnip | themonarch: so is the 2Tb drive USB based? | 02:29 |
| themonarch | yeah | 02:29 |
| species | ActionParsnip: 120mb isnt worth a sneeze these days | 02:29 |
| themonarch | plugged into the USB port you mean, right? | 02:29 |
| ActionParsnip | themonarch: you have 2 kernels, you only really need on | 02:29 |
| Acid190 | Anyone here good with making they're own digital artwork? | 02:29 |
| species | unless you live perpetually in the 90's | 02:29 |
| species | ActionParsnip: dude... thats not his main concern right now | 02:29 |
| ActionParsnip | species: if you have a netbook with 4Gb then it is, or installed to an SD card etc | 02:29 |
| daze21 | just curious... sometimes when I use wget for a webpage, I can't get the images. is there something I can do so the images will work? | 02:29 |
| species | he can pick up crumbs later | 02:29 |
| species | ActionParsnip: but those scenarios dont apply here | 02:30 |
| ActionParsnip | species: true, but it can be a significant lump of data | 02:30 |
| ActionParsnip | themonarch: how does the drive attch? | 02:30 |
| species | his priority #1 is to make his disk work | 02:30 |
| themonarch | I plug it into my USB port? | 02:31 |
| ActionParsnip | species: notice how I'm addressing both issues.... | 02:31 |
| ActionParsnip | themonarch: wat is the issue with the drive? | 02:31 |
| tripelbb | Niglop you mean burn it to DVD, right. It should play with vlc or mplayer. | 02:31 |
| Niglop | tripelbb› how do i play it though its just a bunch of files | 02:31 |
| themonarch | Nothing. I just want Ubuntu to access the other 1.8 tb so I can DL my stuff haha | 02:31 |
| ActionParsnip | themonarch: download in what sense, apps or user data? | 02:32 |
| clavin12 | actionparsnip: I believe I am using the windows driver. I got it directly from the windows system folders. | 02:32 |
| tripelbb | Niglop, when I buy a dvd it's just those kind of files too. | 02:32 |
| themonarch | user data | 02:32 |
| ActionParsnip | themonarch: then and how does the drive interface with the system? | 02:32 |
| Niglop | tripelbb› what do i click to play it | 02:32 |
| themonarch | I dont understand :/ | 02:32 |
| tripelbb | let me put in a disk and see what I do. just a sec | 02:32 |
| ActionParsnip | clavin12: if you run: sudo iwlist scan do you see wireless networks? | 02:32 |
| Niglop | kk | 02:33 |
| ActionParsnip | themonarch: how does the drive connect to the system? SATA? PATA? Firewire? USB? | 02:33 |
| Loshki | Niglop: vlc should be able to play a dvd just fine... | 02:33 |
| themonarch | USB | 02:33 |
| ActionParsnip | !dvd | Niglop | 02:33 |
| ubottu | Niglop: Ubuntu's default installation and repositories do not include packages needed to play commercial DVDs for legal reasons.

| clavin12 | actionparsnip: wlan doesn't even show up. only lo and eth0 | 02:33 |
| ActionParsnip | themonarch: ok so when you connect the drive, do you see the partition in the places menu? | 02:33 |
| clavin12 | actionparsnip: and they say "interface doesn't support scanning" | 02:34 |
| themonarch | i cant disconnect the drive. | 02:34 |
| Datz | Hi, I am looking for a cd ripper. I think this is outdated -> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CDRipping#Ubuntu%20Default%20CD%20Ripping%20Software I don't think sound-juicer is installed by default anymore. Is there an equivalent that is installed by default, or what package should I use? | 02:34 |
| ActionParsnip | clavin12: try: sudo modprobe ndiswrapper then rescan | 02:34 |
| themonarch | because Ubuntu is running off of it | 02:34 |
| themonarch | I think | 02:34 |
| clavin12 | still nothing | 02:34 |
| butterfly | /join #ubuntu-cn | 02:34 |
| butterfly | why not | 02:35 |
| gpc | no space | 02:35 |
| rww | butterfly: because you put a space in front of the command | 02:35 |
| butterfly | oh，my god | 02:35 |
| clavin12 | Actionparsnip: keep in mind i'm using 9.10 | 02:35 |
| tripelbb | Niglop, I went to computer, r-clicked on the diskimage. chose open with other program. chose VLC (and said remember this choice) | 02:35 |
| butterfly | oh，thanks | 02:35 |
| Niglop | thanks tripelbb but now hen i put a dvd in its not even showing up | 02:36 |
| themonarch | Species? Action Parsnip? | 02:36 |

| jasono | Hi. Does anyone know how to use Blender? | 02:37 |
| niriven | jason_m, #blender people do, ive used it as well | 02:37 |
| Niglop | jasono› #blender | 02:37 |
| species | themonarch: im thinking... how come your disk is mounted as /host | 02:38 |
| clavin12 | I installed the network administration package and my wireless interface does not show up. | 02:38 |
| themonarch | I dont know what that means.. | 02:38 |
| Datz | What should I use as a cd ripper? | 02:38 |
| clavin12 | Even though i installed the driver in ndiswrapper. | 02:38 |
| tripelbb | Niglop, this is really wierd so listen up. I got the dvd showing on the desktop BUT when I click or r-click I only get the folder. BUT when I go to places > dvd > R-click THEN I get the choice to "Open with other application" -- this is one reason I call Ubuntu "not ready for prime time". --- You can ALSO open VLC and choose disc (under File) | 02:38 |
| jasono | Niglop No one will help. | 02:38 |
| species | when you did df -ah it showed that your hdd is /def/sdb1 and is mounted on /host | 02:38 |
| species | it indicated that the partition on it is the full size of the disk | 02:38 |
| Snakkah | Hi. I'm running Ubuntu 10.10 and occasionally I notice certain letters will become squares, and it's becomine very irritating. Like right now, the lowercase v is a black square. How do I stop this? :( | 02:39 |
| Niglop | tripelbb now hen i put a dvd in its not even showing up | 02:39 |
| tripelbb | jasono when no one helps it's because no one knows. I have never used Blender tho I know what it is. | 02:39 |
| species | im curious as to what /host is for | 02:39 |
| lewix | who use that archaic opera | 02:39 |
| themonarch | Idk? :( | 02:39 |
| Niglop | niriven› lol what game is that | 02:39 |
| species | try cd /host | 02:39 |
| species | tripelbb: there is a blender channel on freenode | 02:40 |
| gpc | jasono: http://www.blender.org/education-help/tutorials/ | 02:40 |
| niriven | Niglop, starcraft 2, custom game :) | 02:40 |
| themonarch | you mean type cd /host as a command in terminal | 02:40 |
| tripelbb | Niglop did you go to places, computer? -- Now eventually your DVD-eye inside the drive will get dirty and not work. I cant tell if that happened or not. (BTW the CDeye and the DVDeye are separate and distinct even in the same drive | 02:40 |
| themonarch | ? | 02:40 |
| Niglop | oh | 02:40 |
| species | themonarch: yes | 02:40 |
| tripelbb | jasono when no one helps it's because no one knows. I have never used Blender tho I know what it is. AND <species> tripelbb: there is a blender channel on freenode | 02:40 |
| themonarch | it said "/host$ | 02:40 |
| jasono | gpc I do not have time. This is due tomorrow. | 02:40 |
| Niglop | hm | 02:40 |
| themonarch | and then wants me to type something | 02:40 |
| Niglop | ill restart brb | 02:40 |
| species | hit ctrl+c | 02:41 |
| species | you did that wrong | 02:41 |
| species | try agian, "cd /host" | 02:41 |
| jasono | tripelbb I've tried #blender | 02:41 |
| Snakkah | Hi. I'm running Ubuntu 10.10 and occasionally I notice certain letters will become squares, and it's becomine very irritating. Like right now, the lowercase v is a black square. How do I stop this? :( | 02:41 |
| gpc | jasono: we aren't here to do your homework and Blender support would be better in #blender | 02:41 |
| themonarch | same thing | 02:41 |
| species | odd | 02:41 |
| no4 | how do i add repositiores so i can get a precompiled package for kdevelop | 02:42 |
| gpc | jasono: while you wait for answers to your questions in #blender you could be reading up on it at their site | 02:42 |
| themonarch | :( | 02:42 |
| species | that makes no gd sense | 02:42 |
| themonarch | why? | 02:43 |
| species | 1) the fact that its mounted on /host in the first place and 2) that it does that | 02:43 |
| thechas | anyone know anything about mp3blaster?? | 02:43 |
| themonarch | anyway to fix? | 02:43 |
| gpc | no4: sudo apt-get install kdevelop | 02:43 |
| bazhang | thechas, you have a question about it? please ask | 02:43 |
| species | no idea, sorry | 02:43 |
| themonarch | FRICK. | 02:44 |
| no4 | haha oh yea | 02:44 |
| no4 | i should of tried tht | 02:44 |
| thechas | bazhang: when i attempt to play a mp3 i get 'failed to open sound device' | 02:44 |

| themonarch | Does this gibberish mean anything to you, Species? | 02:47 |
| species | yes | 02:47 |
| Mokstar_ | how do I edit the startup so that it boots right in to the OS rather than hitting the "try ubuntu, install ubuntu" menu | 02:47 |
| species | but its all pretty standard except for /host | 02:47 |
| KM0201 | Mokstar_: you can't, its a live cd, thats what its designed to do. | 02:47 |
| Mokstar_ | so what you're telling me | 02:47 |
| clavin12 | How might I go about fixing the "cannot detect if hardware is present" error in ndiswrapper with my netgear wna3100 adapter. | 02:48 |
| boldfilter | whats xubuntu? is that gnome? | 02:48 |
| Mokstar_ | is that there is no possible way of editing it to boot right into the persistent OS | 02:48 |
| species | Mokstar_: take the CD out of the drive :P | 02:48 |
| themonarch | :/ | 02:48 |
| species | Mokstar_: you left the CD in the drive despite being told not to | 02:48 |
| clavin12 | boldfilter: no, xfce | 02:48 |
| KM0201 | Mokstar_: i'm not telling you there's no way, what i'm telling you, is if you want to create your own live cd, have at it. | 02:48 |
| Mokstar_ | err, no, not CD | 02:48 |
| Mokstar_ | SD | 02:48 |
| Mokstar_ | sorry, wasn't clear | 02:48 |

| boldfilter | clavin12: so different from kde, gnome? | 02:48 |

| AbhijiT | i have 10.10 cd image. and i want to add ubuntu manual to this image such that in live cd and after installation that ubuntu manual should appear in the desktopl | 02:49 |
| AbhijiT | how to do that? | 02:49 |
| KM0201 | clavin12: i guess thats a matter up for debate... xfce has gotten very bloated over the last few years.. it's not much different from gnome | 02:49 |
| AbhijiT | i have acetoneiso | 02:49 |
| themonarch | species should i try unpluging my ext hdd? | 02:50 |
| AbhijiT | in which foldershould i put that manual? | 02:50 |

| gpc | Da_Wrecka: there is no root password | 02:51 |

| cjhmdm | hello, I have 2 servers that I'm accessing via KVMoIP. On one server, I am able to boot from the attached ubuntu minimal iso (mini.iso) and install ubuntu just fine, on the other, when I boot from mini.iso, "linux" loads fine, then "initrd.gz" loads fine (..... ready). But once that's done I get a kernel panic that says "kernel panic - not syncing: no init found. Try passing init= option to... | 02:52 |
| cjhmdm | ...kernel". Any ideas on how I can overcome this? | 02:52 |
| gpc | Da_Wrecka: you can do " sudo -i " to get extended sudo privs | 02:52 |
| J_C | Da_Wrecka: you have to create one if you want one. | 02:52 |
| * Mokstar_ goes to ask in #xubuntu instead. | 02:52 | |
| J_C | or sudo su - | 02:52 |
| species | themonarch: that sounds like the windows partition | 02:52 |
| Da_Wrecka | Blah. Oh well. Not the end of the world I suppose... Running the installer from a terminal with sudo should do the trick, I hope | 02:52 |
| themonarch | huh? | 02:52 |
| themonarch | blue OS means windows? | 02:53 |
| themonarch | haha | 02:53 |
| species | nothing out of the ordinary there either | 02:53 |
| species | no | 02:53 |
| species | nothing to do with windows, thats how ll is colouring things | 02:53 |

| clavin12 | sacarlson: http://pastebin.com/tQCCfYCX | 02:54 |
| species | why the frick would a drive mount as /host | 02:54 |
| python | lol | 02:54 |
| species | themonarch: the normal way to dual boot is to split the internal HDD of the laptop | 02:54 |
| Da_Wrecka | oh joy. Sudo isn't working; All I get is "command not found", WHILE executing from the directory containing the file, AND after having chmod +x'd the file in question | 02:54 |
| species | themonarch: the installer makes this easy as pie | 02:54 |
| themonarch | i saved it to my external | 02:54 |
| edbian | species, live cd ? | 02:54 |
| themonarch | and ran it off my external | 02:54 |
| species | Da_Wrecka: ./nameoffile | 02:54 |
| themonarch | .... | 02:54 |
| species | edbian: he's booting off a hard disk | 02:55 |
| species | edbian: for some reason its giving him almost no disk space on /home even though he has a 2tb disk available | 02:55 |
| rww | species: /host is what Wubi mounts the Windows partition as when it's set up | 02:55 |

| species | wait a minute | 02:56 |
| species | themonarch: are you running in wubi? or booting natively | 02:56 |
| Da_Wrecka | Oh. Nevermind, my mistake. Archive Manager put the .sh in a directory it made, WITHIN the directory I was trying to execute from | 02:56 |
| themonarch | what in gods name is wubi? | 02:56 |
| themonarch | or bootng natively | 02:56 |
| species | it lets you run ub on top of windows | 02:56 |
| Da_Wrecka | So I was, futilely, trying to execute a directory that I thought was a shell script | 02:56 |

| AbhijiT | I have 10.10 cd iso image. I want to add ubuntu manual to this iso image such that, after burning this iso image to cd, in live cd mode and after installation that ubuntu manual should appear in the desktop. I am using acetoneISO. | 02:56 |
| Acid190 | themonarch: it's like daemon tools | 02:57 |
| Acid190 | i think | 02:57 |
| species | edbian: this explains a few things, but unfortunatley my knowledge ends here... I find the existence of wubi offensive and confusing :| | 02:57 |
| themonarch | daemon tools? | 02:57 |
| feyd | can someone explain what a hard link is? | 02:57 |
| Acid190 | daemon tools is a virtual drive, makes your computer think there is a dvd drive when there isn't | 02:57 |
| themonarch | im not too too knowledgeable on computers | 02:57 |
| themonarch | sorry | 02:57 |
| edbian | species, I don't disagree with your opinion of wubi | 02:57 |
| edbian | themonarch, no worries. So is this wubi? Did you install this while windows was running? | 02:58 |
| python | does anyone else get a this when they run netstat | 02:58 |
| themonarch | i can boot in windows or ubuntu whenever want, like i have both.. | 02:58 |

| * KM0201 thinks Ubuntu should drop wubi | 02:58 | |
| species | edbian: I think it springs from the mistaken believe that ubuntu is somehow going to save the world by making our grannies use ub instead of windows | 02:59 |
| thiebaude | KM0201, i have to agree with that | 02:59 |
| edbian | themonarch, I know that. I'm asking, when you installed, did you run the installer from inside windows? Or did you boot the cd ? | 02:59 |
| themonarch | inside windows i think. i didnt use a CD or anyrhing | 02:59 |
| sacarlson | clavin12: only network device I see is RTL-8139/8139C/8139C+ an ethernet device so what device do you plan to use ndiswraper on? | 02:59 |
| KM0201 | thiebaude: it's fine to "try" ubuntu.. but to many think it's safe to just keep and use regularly.. and removing it, is often a huge pain. I was helping a guy most of the weekend who couldn't get wubi removed, despite following all the instructions on the forums, ubuntu.com etc. | 02:59 |
| clavin12 | sacarlson: oh darn, srry it was unplagged at the time. | 03:00 |
| clavin12 | plugged* | 03:00 |
| Da_Wrecka | God dammit, Lexmark! It would be nice if you'd tell me about prerequisites BEFORE I waste time trying to install the thing without! | 03:00 |
| edbian | themonarch, You never burned a cd? Then you are using wubi. Wubi is a special installer that lets you install Ubuntu as if it were a window application. (but lets you boot into it normally) There is a file on your windows partition that acts as Ubuntu's harddrive. That file is limiting your size. | 03:00 |
| thiebaude | KM0201, i tried it before ,few years ago | 03:00 |
| EO_ | python: yes. they're unix domain sockets. they're normal. | 03:00 |
| clavin12 | sacarlson; oh waite no it wasn't | 03:00 |
| sacarlson | clavin12: ya they work much better when you plug them in | 03:00 |
| rww | KM0201: I can't remember ever seeing someone on #ubuntu say good things about Wubi :| | 03:00 |
| Da_Wrecka | First it whinges that I don't have a JRE installed. I solve that problem and NOW it's whinging that I don't have XSane installed | 03:00 |
| themonarch | How do i fix that? | 03:00 |
| KM0201 | rww: lol | 03:00 |
| python | Thanks EQ | 03:00 |
| themonarch | install from Cd or USB? | 03:00 |
| KM0201 | thiebaude: i've never personally tried it... just have helped people try to remove it, or fix the mess that happens if they try to "upgrade" wubi. | 03:01 |
| AbhijiT | I have 10.10 cd iso image. I want to add ubuntu manual to this iso image such that, after burning this iso image to cd, in live cd mode and after installation that ubuntu manual should appear in the desktop. I am using acetoneISO. | 03:01 |
| AbhijiT | I wanted to know the location in iso image where to add the manual. | 03:01 |
| clavin12 | sacarlson: I suppose that's part of my problem then. | 03:01 |
| thiebaude | KM0201, my problem before was trying to get it off the windows boot loader | 03:01 |
| clavin12 | sacarlson: It's a usb device. | 03:02 |
| thiebaude | when it ask for choice of windows or ubuntu,lol | 03:02 |
| KM0201 | thiebaude: yeah... unfortunately, it's a common issue. | 03:02 |
| edbian | themonarch, You can make the file bigger, I'm not sure how (just google it). A proper install would also fix the problem. | 03:02 |
| thiebaude | thats after i uninstalled it,lol | 03:02 |
| thiebaude | KM0201, | 03:02 |
| Da_Wrecka | Oh well, at least the printer software is installed | 03:02 |
| edbian | themonarch, What is the ultimate problem / goal here? | 03:02 |
| Da_Wrecka | Kind of interesting really, I was under the impression Lexmark had a pretty poor reputation when it came to Linux support | 03:02 |
| themonarch | i have a 2tb external hard drive, and i want to use that space but Ubuntu wouldnt let me lol | 03:02 |
| KM0201 | thiebaude: yeah, there's some registry editing you can do to remove the wubi menu if it doesn't remove upon uninstall. | 03:02 |

| bazhang | themonarch, you want to move the wubi? expand it? please clarify | 03:03 |
| edbian | themonarch, you have to partition the harddrive. Ubuntu cannot be installed on NTFS partitions | 03:03 |

| edbian | themonarch, no but it is not 'easy' to transfer the data you have | 03:04 |
| themonarch | idk. | 03:04 |
| KM0201 | thiebaude: to me, the bigger issue is, when wubi breaks(especially the bootloader) it hoses both OS's.. and it's hard to fix cuz you can't boot either one, and the live cd doesn't realy have many of the tools necessary to fix wubi.... at least w grub.. you'll likely always be able to boot at least 1 OS, and even if you can't, the live CD has the tools to fix many grub problems | 03:04 |
| themonarch | it said i was out of space | 03:04 |
| themonarch | and i got confused | 03:04 |
| themonarch | because i have 2 tb | 03:04 |
| bazhang | themonarch, then expand it. there is a tool for it | 03:04 |

| Da_Wrecka | Oh yeah, while I'm here; I've also run into a rather annoying problem; Basically, I once set my netbook's power scheme to Performance, and shut the netbook down some time after.

| julio_ | jgruber, you reffer to the ttys? | 03:34 |

| tehbaut | is there any way to get details on which files are being processed when copying in nautilus? | 03:36 |
| jgruber | julio_: yes, each virtual terminal has a separate tty number matching a similar vt number. Usually your stuff starts on vt7 (virtual terminal 7) related to device /dev/tty7, which usually starts out with as DISPLAY=:0.0. Actually the DISPLAY variable in the environment of a running X program or set of programs in a session could include an IP address and could make the output appear on an X session on a separate computer--not often seen with Ub | 03:37 |

| jgruber | julio_: I missed your message from 12 minutes ago. I see it now. Sorry. Let me think | 03:48 |
| Blueleaf | wow | 03:48 |
| mythid | hey guys is there a reason why my linux laptop keeps locking up and turning the caps lock icon on and off | 03:48 |
| Blueleaf | trying to get mp3blaster working | 03:49 |
| KM0201 | Blueleaf: whats mp3 blaster? | 03:49 |
| julio_ | jgruber, http://img3.imageshack.us/img3/5668/pantallazowv.png take a look on this | 03:50 |
| Blueleaf | KM0201: good to see you again, mp3blaster is a cli mp3 player | 03:50 |
| sacarlson | mythid: I think that indicates a kernel panic condition | 03:50 |
| derklempner | KM0201: mp3blaster is a command-line audio player... http://mp3blaster.sourceforge.net/ | 03:50 |
| KM0201 | derklempner: oh ok.. | 03:50 |
| mythid | sacarlson: is there a way to fix it? | 03:50 |
| KM0201 | !info mp3blaster | 03:50 |
| ubottu | mp3blaster (source: mp3blaster): Full-screen console mp3 and Ogg Vorbis player. In component universe, is optional. Version 1:3.2.5-3 (maverick), package size 198 kB, installed size 648 kB | 03:51 |
| KM0201 | hmm, its in the repositories. | 03:51 |
| jgruber | julio_: I'm no expert on this, but I think even if you set up your displays as separate "screens" in the appearance control panel, it becomes part of the same X desktop and therefore the same X screen. I may very well be wrong, or may be misunderstanding what you are saying. I also don't know what Conky is. I may not be much help :-( | 03:51 |
| sacarlson | mythid: have you made any changes as of late? | 03:51 |
| mythid | sacarlson: i installed lubuntu istead of ubuntu 5.94 | 03:51 |
| mythid | 5.04 | 03:51 |
| Blueleaf | KM0201: when i try to play i get 'faile to open audio device' | 03:51 |
| Dead_Storage | will going from 10.04 to 10.10 cause me to loose any settings/data | 03:52 |
| KM0201 | Blueleaf: no idea on that one... | 03:52 |
| sacarlson | mythid: and with ubuntu 5.94 it ran ok for days? | 03:52 |
| xangua | Dead_Storage: why would¿ | 03:52 |
| bazhang | Dead_Storage, not really | 03:52 |
| derklempner | Dead_Storage: it shouldn't, as it doesn't affect your settings stored in the /home directory | 03:52 |
| RedLance | Just installed Ubuntu 10 Server on my file server. OS is on a seperate 80gb drive. It never asked me where to mount the storage drives...what's the easiest way to do that? They all have exsisting data. | 03:52 |
| bastidrazor | julio_: you can alt right click and drag conky around | 03:53 |
| jgruber | julio_: that image you posted looks like a bug to me, not some configuration problem. I'd suggest you report in as an X bug to start with with the problem reporting tool to get it in launchpad and then attach the image. What version of Ubuntu are you running? | 03:53 |
| julio_ | jgruber, conky is a system monitor, you can see it in the left screen (smaller one) on the screenshot | 03:53 |
| Blueleaf | KM0201: thats not good... | 03:53 |
| sacarlson | mythid: reason I ask is I get this problem with memory failures, but if it worked before I guess it's software | 03:53 |
| chaospsychex | can ubuntu use multiple PCs acting as one sing computer? | 03:53 |
| derklempner | RedLance: you can edit fstab to mount the other drives and partitions at bootup | 03:53 |
| chaospsychex | over ethernet ? | 03:53 |
| chaospsychex | *single computer | 03:54 |
| derklempner | !info beowulf | 03:54 |
| ubottu | Package beowulf does not exist in maverick | 03:54 |
| RedLance | derklempner, Ok, but I'm having trouoble figuring out the UUID's...it dosen't show /dev/sda at all | 03:54 |
| julio_ | bastidrazor, not really... is setted as somewhat part of the background not as a windows | 03:54 |
| julio_ | window* | 03:54 |
| derklempner | RedLance: how many disks, and how many partitions? | 03:54 |
| tehbaut | is there any way to get details on which files are being processed when copying in nautilus? | 03:54 |
| bastidrazor | julio_: i drag mine around. | 03:54 |
| julio_ | bastidrazor, well, trust me i'm trying but it wont move :p | 03:55 |
| RedLance | 5 disks, and 8 partitions | 03:55 |
| RedLance | derklempner, 5 disks and 8 partitions | 03:55 |
| KM0201 | Blueleaf: any particular reason it must be CLI?.. there's plenty of "small" media players that have a GUI. | 03:55 |
| mythid | sacarlson: yea with ubuntu 5.04 it worked forever with the pmcia card\ | 03:56 |
| sacarlson | chaospsychex: they have packages that support using a team of computers to solve math problems but I don't know if they have any setup to support all applications | 03:56 |
| RedLance | derklempner, Including the OS drive. | 03:56 |
| bastidrazor | julio_: pastebin your .conkyrc | 03:56 |
| mythid | sacarlson: i just wanted to upadte so i get the latest repositories | 03:56 |
| mythid | sacarlson: and now when i click my wifi network it just locks up my mouse and everything | 03:56 |
| Blueleaf | KM0201: im just like doing everything on the cl, im old fashioned | 03:57 |
| jgruber | julio_: what's the text at the left of the image? | 03:57 |
| Psyclone | my external hard drive is acting up, everytime i log in, it mounts when i double click on the GUI, but it will not STAY mounted, is there a way to fix that? | 03:57 |
| sacarlson | mythid: well must be software then, or maybe just run out of mem? you have a swap partition setup? | 03:57 |
| mythid | sacarlson: no it's just an entire partition install | 03:57 |
| derklempner | RedLance: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Fstab | 03:57 |
| RedLance | derklempner, Thanks | 03:57 |
| julio_ | bastidrazor, one sec | 03:57 |
| sacarlson | mythid: well that might cause a problem if you don't have swap and with limited mem if you run out there is nothing much the system can do but crash | 03:58 |
| derklempner | RedLance: so where you see "UUID" in fstab, you'd put in the drive's /dev path: i.e., /dev/sdb1 or /dev/sdc2 | 03:58 |
| mythid | sacarlson: you really think that joining a wifi network can use up all my memory? plus lubuntu is supposed to be really light | 03:58 |
| bastidrazor | derklempner: RedLance just use the UUID's .. sudo blkid will give you each partitions UUID | 03:58 |
| mythid | sacarlson: it runs fast too until i join the network it locks up | 03:58 |
| julio_ | jgruber, the white text on the left half of the small screen is part of conky, as the column (of wich you'll see bottom half) on the right of that same screen | 03:58 |
| sacarlson | mythid: when it is running can you run the command top or htop to see what you have left? | 03:59 |
| WXZ | ubuntu keeps telling me I have 3.something MB left | 03:59 |
| WXZ | but Gparted says I have 700 | 03:59 |
| derklempner | bastidrazor: he can use the UUIDs, too, but sometimes it's just easier to use the device path instead | 03:59 |
| RedLance | bastidrazor, I've been trying that, but it leaves off the system drive /dev/sda...though I think that's because it's got LVM on it | 03:59 |
| sacarlson | mythid: it's not as light as things were back in 5.04, only one way to find out....look and see | 03:59 |
| sacarlson | mythid: then it could also be a problem you have with the network drivers? or is it you open a browser when it crashes? | 04:00 |
| julio_ | bastidrazor, http://pastebin.com/WnmgV4Yi there you go | 04:00 |
| mythid | sacarlson: no i dont even have to open up the browser | 04:01 |
| RedLance | bastidrazor, Oh, no...it's leaving off my 1.5TB drive | 04:01 |
| sacarlson | mythid: well that narrows it down a bit then, could be the nic driver, what else opens at the time? | 04:01 |
| Loshki | RedLance: can you pastebin the output of 'sudo fdisk -l' ? | 04:02 |
| Philippe | mmm hi? | 04:02 |
| RedLance | Loshki, Think I figured it out...I thought I had made a FS on the big drive...but according to fdisk, I haven't | 04:02 |
| Philippe | im having an issue with an sd card | 04:03 |
| fubada | hi :P /tmp contents doesnt survive reboot in ubunty? | 04:03 |
| fubada | ubuntu | 04:03 |
| fubada | seems to be like it got wiped after a reboor | 04:03 |
| RedLance | Loshki, http://pastebin.com/wMAaLaSF | 04:03 |
| jgruber | fubada: yes /tmp is cleared on most unix-like systems (all that I know of) that's what is temporary about it | 04:04 |
| fubada | shit :P | 04:04 |
| fubada | there goes my perfect openwrt kernel config | 04:04 |
| jgruber | fubada: sorry | 04:04 |
| fubada | np, the behavior is different in debian 5/centos | 04:04 |
| Loshki | fubada: /tmp is usually wiped on reboot. Sometimes it's not even on a real disk... | 04:04 |
| Philippe | hello? | 04:05 |
| fubada | k Vilki | 04:05 |
| fubada | i mean Loshki | 04:05 |
| fubada | thanks | 04:05 |
| bastidrazor | julio_: i see, you have the whole screen using conky.. that looks horrible :( | 04:05 |
| Starminn | Using GParted I can view all partitions. Browsing via a manager, /dev/sda does not exist. | 04:05 |
| derklempner | !ask Philippe | 04:05 |
| === zkriesse_ is now known as zkriesse | ||
| Philippe | sorry | 04:05 |
| Starminn | Where would partitions be stored in the filesystem? | 04:05 |
| Philippe | im pretty new | 04:06 |
| derklempner | Philippe: just ask your question :) | 04:06 |
| fubada | how pretty are you? | 04:06 |
| fubada | :) | 04:06 |
| Starminn | lol | 04:06 |

| Philippe | jajajaj | 04:06 |
| bastidrazor | julio_: and no wonder.. it is seeing the top of the screen as the height of the 2nd since it is taller. | 04:07 |
| sacarlson | Starminn: partition table is normaly stored in around the first 512 bytes on the disk drive | 04:07 |
| chiggins | Hey, can anyone help me setup my server to join with Active Directory? | 04:07 |
| Philippe | so i formatted an sd card and i put some files on it , then i took it out an put it back in and icant put any new files on it | 04:08 |
| derklempner | Philippe: are you trying to put the new files into an existing directory on the card? | 04:09 |
| Philippe | like a folder? yeah | 04:09 |
| Philippe | i could tell you the error i get but i got my computer in spanish | 04:10 |
| Philippe | i could set it in english and check | 04:10 |
| julio_ | bastidrazor, ...likes or dislikes it was the first .conky i've liked :p | 04:11 |
| derklempner | Philippe: what user name are you using, and what user owns the directory you're trying to copy the files into? | 04:11 |
| Philippe | wait | 04:11 |
| bastidrazor | julio_: line 73 add a comment. #alignment top_left then uncomment line 75.. alignment bottom_left .. that should get it back down | 04:11 |

| prod_ | hi guys, Im having a bt of trouble with my ftp server. If i create user with useradd i cant connect with that user. but when adduser is used the user is then allowed ftp access. the reason i need to use useradd is because i am building a perl programme which automatically makes user accounts and ftp access. any help will be most appreciated. | 04:13 |
| julio_ | bastidrazor, that's more like it but i'll have to modify the rest of it as now i've got and inch of free space up :p | 04:14 |
| Philippe | wait am changing my computer to english if you dont mind cause am kinda bad at translating il be back soon | 04:15 |
| julio_ | bastidrazor, when this started happening i considered switching to some less invasive horizontal bar at the top | 04:15 |
| bastidrazor | julio_: line 340 add a few more empty lines. that should raise the right text | 04:16 |
| jgruber | julio_ and bastidrazor: isn't it supposed to appear in a window rather than appearing in the background (maybe it's my eyes :-) | 04:16 |
| mikebot | Can someone help me troubleshoot an ubuntu usb stick problem? WHen I boot to USB, I /briefly/ see some symbol at the bottom of the screen, and then it goes into like a command prompt screen, a bunch of stuff scrolls, and then it just freezes... any ideas? | 04:17 |
| bastidrazor | jgruber: psuedo transparency is the a feature of conky. | 04:17 |
| sacarlson | prod_: so you mean the user has to login one time before they can access your ftp site? | 04:17 |
| jgruber | bastidrazor and julio_: sorry. I didn't know that | 04:18 |
| bastidrazor | julio_: getting a better .conkyrc would be a better idea.. why you are interested in seeing /var/log/messages on the desktop is a mystery to me. | 04:18 |
| julio_ | jgruber, no prob | 04:18 |
| Loshki | prod_: can you run diff -r on the two user's home directories (one which works and one which doesn't) to see if it gives you any clues... | 04:18 |
| julio_ | bastidrazor, well for a while it was kinda fun... it came with the script, now i rarely pay atention to it except when i plug in my 3g modem lol :p | 04:19 |
| pooshwalter | USA! | 04:19 |
| pooshwalter | USA! USA! | 04:19 |
| sacarlson | prod_: oh IC the adduser command works but the useradd doesn't, why can't perl just use the adduser then? | 04:19 |

| rww | pooshwalter: Three strikes and you're out. Just FYI. | 04:20 |
| prod_ | sacarlson: Yes i need users to be added by my perl programme and so far i am only able to addusers with useradd. But when i use useradd the corresponding ftp account isnt created. However when i use adduser the ftp account is created automatically along with the unix account. I have try every ftp server available for ubuntu and all yield the same results. | 04:20 |

| baslisks | hi | 04:21 |
| prod_ | with adduser i am unable to state username and password within the same line | 04:21 |
| baslisks | so | 04:21 |
| baslisks | my wife's netbook crashed | 04:22 |
| baslisks | it lost its boot | 04:22 |
| baslisks | and I am having a hell of a time restoring it | 04:22 |
| ray_ | hi all | 04:22 |
| sacarlson | prod_: ok and again why can't perl that I know can run bash scripts also, why can't it just run addusers? | 04:22 |
| Blue11 | baslisks: this might help http://pkill-9.com/?p=314 | 04:22 |
| sosaited | I am running Firefox 3.6 on Ubuntu, but it wont start after a power failure while it was running. | 04:23 |
| baslisks | thanks | 04:23 |
| sacarlson | prod_: maybe you need to look at the perl system command? http://www.perlhowto.com/executing_external_commands | 04:23 |
| baslisks | starting that set of instructions | 04:23 |
| Blue11 | baslisks: YMMV applies | 04:24 |
| baslisks | YMMV? | 04:24 |
| prod_ | sacarlson: could you maybe link me to what you mean, I am without doubt very new to this and am most likely makin a big mistake or just unskilled :) | 04:24 |

| prod_ | I am unsure as to how i make my programme fill out multiple fields | 04:25 |
| tehbaut | is there any way to get details on which files are being processed when copying in nautilus? | 04:25 |
| Blue11 | tehbaut: usually it displays that info as it copies (file operations) | 04:25 |
| sacarlson | prod_: I'm not sure you even looked at the CLI for adduser then http://www.howtogeek.com/howto/ubuntu/add-a-user-on-ubuntu-server/ | 04:26 |
| mikebot | Blue11: Yeah | 04:26 |
| mikebot | Blue11: And the exe works when I open it manually in windows | 04:26 |
| tehbaut | Blue11: I thought so too, but all I see is "copying 2,500 files (in "Some Folder") to "Some Other Folder" | 04:26 |
| tehbaut | there's no dropdown that shows the file currently being processed | 04:26 |
| Blue11 | tehbaut: it should so the progress as it copies (at least it does in mine) | 04:27 |
| Blue11 | mikebot: ah not too fam with doing it in windows unfortunately maybe someone else can assist? | 04:27 |
| Blue11 | tehbaut: there is no dropdown. it will show another window that says file operations...and will show the progress of the copy... | 04:28 |
| tehbaut | Blue11: yeah, I see the progress "2.0 GB of 20.0 GB --- approximately 90 hours left (59.3 KB/sec)" but no listing of which file is being processed | 04:28 |
| mikebot | Blue11: AH, ok, thanks for the attempt. | 04:28 |
| Blue11 | tehbaut: that's pretty slow, what are you copying from to? | 04:28 |
| tehbaut | Blue11: a hard drive with some bad blocks... it's excruciatingly slow | 04:29 |
| prod_ | sacarlson: when usin useradd i am using the cli correctly, setting pw and creating home dir. that is why i dont understand why useradd doesnt work the same as adduser. | 04:29 |
| tehbaut | Blue11: that's why I was hoping to see which files it's getting stuck on | 04:29 |
| Blue11 | tehbaut: is it windows or linux? have you run fsck? | 04:29 |
| MTecknology | :'( I can't set the backlight on this darn laptop and it used to work perfect | 04:30 |
| tehbaut | the partition is a mac HFS+ partition... the drive is dying, thus I won't be running fsck on it | 04:30 |
| MTecknology | I wouldn't care if it could just be stuck on bright instead of dim | 04:30 |
| tehbaut | also, fsck always seems to corrupt my files, so I avoid it at all costs | 04:30 |
| Blue11 | tehbaut: have never used a mac...dunno... | 04:30 |
| LinuxGuy2009 | I just bought a Western Digital MyBook Live 1TB NAS. I have it hooked up with all my music and movies. I'm not sure what I need to do to be able to play music from it from within rhythmbox. Do I need to permanently mount it or what exactly? | 04:31 |
| sacarlson | prod_: I think I might see the point why useradd would be what you want in this case since adduser asks questions after, maybe look at what groups are added with the adduser, my guess you didn't setup groups correctly for your useradd | 04:31 |
| tehbaut | the hard drive is dying... has a lot of bad blocks, thus it's slow... I'm sure it has nothing to do with the HFS+ formatting of the drive | 04:31 |
| Blue11 | LinuxGuy2009: is that a usb drive? | 04:31 |
| LinuxGuy2009 | Blue11: No its a hard drive. | 04:31 |
| Blue11 | LinuxGuy2009: than the system should mount it for you, as long as the entry is in fstab, but yes it would need to be mounted | 04:32 |
| derklempner | Blue11: he said it's NAS | 04:32 |
| LinuxGuy2009 | Blue11: Its a NAS drive so it only has a ethernet port. | 04:32 |
| Blue11 | LinuxGuy2009: ahh that's why I asked. I have never seen an ethernet drive. | 04:33 |

| sambagirlx | linuxguy2009 that pyneighborhood is essential | 04:37 |
| baslisks | I can't actually boot to anything outside of grub | 04:37 |
| markoso | virtual box in app center? | 04:37 |
| LinuxGuy2009 | sambagirlx: Ok cool Im installing that right now. | 04:38 |
| derklempner | markoso: VirtualBox OSE is | 04:38 |
| baslisks | getting initramfs | 04:38 |
| sambagirlx | coolio | 04:38 |
| markoso | sudo apt-get virtuakbox? | 04:38 |
| Blue11 | baslisks: :-( | 04:38 |
| bastidrazor | markoso: yes, if you want to use your usb ports then get virtualbox from their website, the OSE version has USB disabled | 04:39 |
| mama21mama_ | hola alguien me puede leer?... ando probando un plugin | 04:39 |
| Blue11 | baslisks: what happened when you followed the recipe? | 04:39 |
| Blue11 | !es | mama21mama | 04:39 |

| markoso | ok | 04:39 |
| sambagirlx | i cant get the usbs to work in virtualbox anymore since i installed 10.10 ubuntu. | 04:39 |
| sambagirlx | i gave up | 04:39 |
| sambagirlx | talked to virtualbox people still no go | 04:39 |
| sambagirlx | oh well | 04:39 |
| baslisks | blue11, I got the live running but I would try to mount the hd but it wouldn't do anything | 04:39 |
| baslisks | just sit in the terminal | 04:39 |
| markoso | found it | 04:40 |
| prod_ | sarcarlson: I created a group for my test user and with useradd test -p 12345 -g group but still no automatic ftp creation :S im really confused | 04:40 |
| Blue11 | sambagirlx: there's a trick to that. add vboxusers:x:128:<youruseridgoeshere> to /etc/group then login/logout | 04:40 |
| Blue11 | sambagirlx: took me months of hunting to figure that out | 04:41 |
| sambagirlx | ok blue11 thanks i would never have figured it out i just gave up on it | 04:41 |
| bucky | sambagirlx, which version of VB are you using? | 04:41 |
| bastidrazor | Blue11: sambagirlx or sudo adduser username vboxusers | 04:41 |
| Blue11 | baslisks: if it mounts correctly, you will just get a prompt | 04:41 |
| baslisks | it just sat there | 04:41 |
| sambagirlx | blue11 i dont really know now. i would have to check | 04:41 |
| ProgrammerJoel | why would u need a test user? I'm curious. | 04:41 |
| baslisks | no prompt just a nice big blinking cursor | 04:42 |
| baslisks | making me cursor | 04:42 |
| prod_ | to test my perl programme | 04:42 |
| Vearide | I'm having trouble connecting to wi-fi, whenever I go to the icon for it it only gives me the option for wired connections | 04:42 |
| Blue11 | sambagirlx: that prevented usb from working in virtual box, I should post that to pkill-9 I guess. | 04:42 |
| ProgrammerJoel | but can't you just test that out on your main user? | 04:42 |

| EO_ | How do you start an encrypted disk in Ubuntu 10.10? It's not the boot drive, and it's specified "noauto" in fstab. | 04:42 |
| Vearide | In the installer it was able to connect through wi-fi though | 04:42 |
| sambagirlx | bastidrazor virtualboxusers is a valid account? | 04:42 |
| Vearide | so I don't really get it. | 04:42 |
| tehbaut | anyone know of a utility similar to rsync that has better error skip and retry functionality... kinda like ddrescue, only it would be for file-by-file copying, rather than block-by-block? | 04:42 |
| prod_ | i need to create and delete account :S | 04:42 |
| Temar | hi | 04:42 |
| ProgrammerJoel | oh i see lol that makes sense now. | 04:43 |
| ProgrammerJoel | thanks. | 04:43 |
| Blue11 | tehbaut: i think dd does that, but not sure. | 04:43 |
| Vearide | 8) | 04:43 |
| bastidrazor | sambagirlx: group and it is vboxusers | 04:43 |
| sambagirlx | ok | 04:43 |
| sambagirlx | thanks | 04:43 |
| Vearide | How do I connect to wifi? It's only giving me the option for wired. | 04:43 |
| * WebDawg zZzZzZzZz | 04:43 | |
| Temar | after i did an upgrade to dist, 1 of my ssh account now sorta broke, it only shows $ not current dir, and i cant use history as before, pressing arrows bring up weard symbols | 04:43 |
| julio_ | bastidrazor, well i'm very thanked by now... it's kinda late here so i'll better leave. Thanks again for your time | 04:43 |
| tehbaut | Blue11: dd doesn't support error retry... only error skipping | 04:44 |
| derklempner | Vearide: when you right-click the networking icon, does it give you an option to enable wireless? | 04:44 |
| Blue11 | tehbaut: true that | 04:44 |
| Vearide | No, it doesn't. | 04:44 |
| bastidrazor | julio_: best of luck on finding a good .conkyrc.. come back and share when you find a decent one. | 04:44 |
| Vearide | It just says allow networking | 04:44 |
| derklempner | Vearide: then it's possible it's not loading a module for your wireless adapter. is it USB? | 04:44 |
| baslisks | booty boo please | 04:45 |
| LinuxGuy2009 | sambagirlx: On pyneighborhood I scanned and found the share that I want to mount and I tried to select mount and it wont do it. Im not sure if I have to specify the mount point first or where i do that at. Any idea? | 04:45 |
| Vearide | no, it's internal and I know it's supported because during the installer it was able to connect | 04:45 |
| Blue11 | baslisks: crosses his eyes, toes, and fingers | 04:45 |
| tehbaut | I need something like rsync for data recovery, heh | 04:45 |
| tehbaut | that way I can pick-and-choose which files to copy | 04:45 |
| LinuxGuy2009 | sambagirlx: I entered the login info for it. | 04:45 |
| Blue11 | tehbaut: i think testdisk -- gosh don;t remember | 04:45 |
| tehbaut | hmmm | 04:46 |
| derklempner | Vearide: in a terminal type lspci and find the adapter. what model is it? | 04:46 |
| Blue11 | tehbaut: i'd use that with extreme caution though | 04:46 |
| sambagirlx | look under prefderences linuxguy2009 | 04:46 |
| Vearide | I can't do that now I'm afraid- I'm on my OS X partition. | 04:46 |
| sambagirlx | preferences i mean | 04:46 |
| Vearide | would it work on os x as well? | 04:46 |
| leonard | Blue11, how you can change ip address on ubuntu 10:10 | 04:46 |
| === STiK is now known as Blur_FTW | ||
| derklempner | Vearide: i don't know, as i don't use OSX | 04:47 |
| Vearide | ah | 04:47 |
| sambagirlx | i'm sorry linuxguy2009 i meant to say add not preferences | 04:47 |
| Vearide | what would that help with? | 04:47 |
| Blue11 | leonard: well are you behind a router? | 04:47 |
| LinuxGuy2009 | sambagirlx: Do i change the smb mount command from "smbmount" to "sudo smbmount" maybe thats why it wont? Maybe a permissions thing? | 04:47 |
| Temar | after i did an upgrade to dist, 1 of my ssh account now sorta broke, it only shows $ not current dir, and i cant use history as before, pressing arrows bring up weard symbols | 04:47 |
| Teknoenie | what is the proper method to remove old kernels | 04:47 |
| LinuxGuy2009 | sambagirlx: Yeah it added it to the right side of the window. | 04:47 |
| leonard | Blue11, in area wifi, | 04:48 |
| bucky | Teknoenie, with synaptic | 04:48 |
| Teknoenie | is there something similar to redhat/centos package-cleanup oldkernels | 04:48 |
| derklempner | Vearide: it would identify the model of the adapter and help me figure out if it's supported without downloading hardware drivers or using Windows drivers through ndiswrapper | 04:48 |
| sambagirlx | linuxguy2009 i cant answer that i am so sorry. | 04:48 |
| sambagirlx | my problem is usually with permissions though. | 04:48 |
| Blue11 | leonard: let me see if ifup works on a wlan | 04:48 |
| LinuxGuy2009 | sambagirlx: Ok cool. Thanks. | 04:48 |
| Teknoenie | bucky, i understand that, but i'm looking for something like package-cleanup oldkernels where I can specify how many kernels to keep | 04:48 |

| sambagirlx | to be honest the new vlc in windows version maybe osx version too has some crazy programs they include to help defray the dev costs i guess. | 04:52 |
| Blue11 | leonard: there is always sneakernet | 04:52 |
| tehbaut | Blue11: looks like testdisk doesn't support copying on a file/directory level... it's more of a "recover deleted files" solution | 04:52 |
| derklempner | leonard: try Kismet -- http://www.kismetwireless.net/ | 04:52 |

| sambagirlx | let me think what i did about that insmod i am trying to recall what i did | 05:01 |
| insmod | sambagirlx: ok | 05:01 |
| KM0201 | digirak: if you have source repositories enabled... type this... sudo apt-get build-dep kstars let it download/install anything it needs, then try to run .configure | 05:01 |
| KM0201 | digirak: second, most of the time, configure does not need ran with sudo. | 05:01 |
| creek23 | what's the equivalent of "type foo.txt" in bash? on windows, "type foo.txt" will display the content of "foo.txt" on the console... right now, I'm using "cat foo.txt" to do just that. is there a proper way to printout the content of "foo.txt" on console? | 05:02 |
| m1dn1ght | /msg nickserv identify brodie | 05:02 |
| KM0201 | digirak: you really only need sudo when you run sudo make install. | 05:02 |
| m1dn1ght | fe | 05:02 |
| KM0201 | cuz all you'er doing up to that point, is compiling the package. | 05:02 |
| digirak | wow that was neat | 05:02 |
| rww | m1dn1ght: change your nickserv password. identify, then /msg nickserv set password newpasswordhere | 05:02 |

| derklempner | Philippe: what about execute? is there a line or checkmark in the box? | 05:03 |
| sambagirlx | ok | 05:03 |
| KM0201 | digirak: kstars has a package in the repositories... i'm assuming you're using a different version.. when you're compiling from source, and it has a package in the repositories, you can use build-dep to fetch the repositories | 05:03 |

| sambagirlx | i thought it was off topic | 05:03 |

| sambagirlx | brb insmod | 05:03 |
| digirak | KM0201: sounds good | 05:03 |
| digirak | i will try this and let you know KM0201 | 05:04 |
| bastidrazor | KM0201: my point is checkinstall is a better route than make install | 05:04 |
| digirak | thanks a lot | 05:04 |
| KM0201 | bastidrazor: but that wasn't the point of what i ws saying... he's following instructions for what hes doing | 05:04 |

| sambagirlx | insmod you had no os loaded at all? | 05:06 |
| creek23 | ah... I see. so "less" is actually a command. so is "more" thanks. thanks. | 05:06 |
| sambagirlx | insmod how many partitions, are they all primary? that will cause an error. gparted will allow you to do things you should not do :) | 05:07 |

| m1dn1ght | Hi guys - I'm attempting to install ubuntu 10.4 on a PC via a USB drive. I am using unetbootin to install the image onto the drive. The trouble I'm having is that the drive was previously used to load a different OS and now despite clearing all partitions in gparted and reformatting, the previous bootloader seems stuck in the USB mbr. Any ideas how to clear it? | 05:08 |
| bastidrazor | aperson: rename the service to service-DISABLE in /etc/init.d/ | 05:08 |
| bucky | aperson, update-rc.d [-n] [-f] <basename> remove | 05:08 |
| bucky | man update-rc.d | 05:09 |
| sambagirlx | if the drive has no os what so ever insmod i would delete them. what i would do then would be start over. it seems that windows has caused a problem. you mentioned ntfs partition. windows has to have a 100mb paritition for 7 if your using that. | 05:09 |
| jsjgruber | m1dn1ght: what happens when you try to boot the usb stick? do you get a message or anything? | 05:09 |
| joesutton | I'm trying to sync my iPod touch on Rhythmbox. There is 15GB free on the iPod, but it won't sync becase Rhythmbox seems to think it is full. | 05:09 |
| m1dn1ght | jsjgruber, yes, it starts loading the previous bootloader (Flashboot loader ver 2.0u) which was used to install windows on a different computer. It then hangs because the rest of the drive is re-formatted. | 05:10 |
| aperson | bastidrazor, bucky, thanks | 05:11 |
| linoge | hi, anyone knows how to solve the sync problem between audio/video in guvcview? | 05:12 |
| bastidrazor | aperson: you're welcome. | 05:12 |
| jsjgruber | m1dn1ght: as far as I know, you can try "start up disk creator" in the administration pull down; I believe it will store a new mbr and it will format the first partition and load syslinux on it | 05:12 |
| m1dn1ght | jsjgruber, I'll give that a try now - thanks! will let you know if it works or not | 05:13 |
| digirak | KM0201: hey its installed all the packages | 05:13 |
| KM0201 | digirak: yeah, thats what its supposed to do. | 05:13 |
| KM0201 | lol | 05:13 |
| digirak | KM0201: now where do i run the./configure? | 05:13 |
| arow | m1dn1ght: you might try the command grub-install | 05:13 |
| jsjgruber | m1dn1ght: after you do that you could probably go back to your preferred usb boot creator | 05:13 |
| linoge | or if there's a good webcam capturer? cheese goes slow as... slow | 05:14 |
| digirak | KM0201: i guessed that too ;) | 05:14 |

| tehbaut | is there any way to get details on which files are being processed when copying in nautilus? | 05:15 |
| m1dn1ght | arow, thanks - I'm giving jsjgruber's suggestion a whirl first, but will try yours if it fails. | 05:15 |
| derklempner | brokendatapoint: i mean sudo apt-get install xubuntu-desktop | 05:15 |

| Curly_Q | Greets to all my friends. Question? What is the command for clearing the up down arrow recall file? Is it a BASH file or a recent file? | 05:16 |
| prod_ | sarcarlson: thank you so much for spottin that adduser is written in perl. I owe you a beer :) | 05:16 |
| jsjgruber | m1dn1ght: with either approach be careful to specify the correct drive :-) | 05:16 |
| digirak | KM0201: how do i find this directory | 05:16 |
| KM0201 | digirak: did you download the source code? | 05:16 |
| m1dn1ght | jsjgruber, hehe, indeed | 05:17 |
| rww | Curly_Q: bash command history is stored in ~/.bash_history | 05:17 |
| digirak | KM0201: i just dit the apt-get in a particular directory | 05:17 |
| Curly_Q | Thanks rww. | 05:17 |
| brokendatapoint | the Gnome-Netbook Dm is great, puuuurty, simple but a bit laggy on 2GB Netbook | 05:17 |
| Curly_Q | I will check it. | 05:17 |
| derklempner | Curly_Q: http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-212482.html | 05:17 |
| KM0201 | no.. digirak when you're running ./configure, etc.. you need th source code of the program.. usually you download it from the homepage for the software | 05:17 |
| KM0201 | !compile | digirak | 05:17 |
| ubottu | digirak: Compiling software from source? Read the tips at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CompilingSoftware (But remember to search for pre-built !packages first) | 05:17 |
| digirak | KM0201: source code of Kstars? | 05:18 |
| KM0201 | digirak: but kstars has a version in the repositories... why not just install that? | 05:18 |
| KM0201 | yes | 05:18 |
| digirak | KM0201: hold on i dont understand my thing is i want to code for Kstars | 05:18 |
| KM0201 | digirak: then you don't need ./configure.. thats what you use to compile the program from source | 05:19 |
| digirak | KM0201: so how do i get the source code for that | 05:19 |
| brokendatapoint | just wanted to say, have been trying to get Debian 64 Netbook, FreeBSD 8.1 & GnewSense to run on this machine ... fail! Ubuntu 10.10 installed/configured str8 up no worries ... love it! | 05:19 |
| Curly_Q | Derklempner thanks for that index. Good show. | 05:19 |
| digirak | oh ok | 05:19 |
| thejackal | Even after I save the x configuration file, my the setting I set wont save after i reset. Has anyone had this problem before? | 05:19 |
| derklempner | Curly_Q: no worries | 05:19 |
| aperson | brokendatapoint, gnome doesn't have a netbook interface, I believe you're talking about unity | 05:19 |
| KM0201 | you need to install kstars... does kstars have a developer kit?... if so.. use it.. i'd seek out support from kstars, it's not really an ubuntu issue at this point | 05:19 |
| brokendatapoint | aperson: oh well, whatever, it looks like Meego, grid icon layout, neat though | 05:19 |
| digirak | KM0201: oh i c | 05:19 |
| m1dn1ght | jsjgruber, your solution worked as advertised, sir. I'm installing via USB as I type this. Many thanks once again. | 05:20 |
| jsjgruber | m1dn1ght: my pleasure, np | 05:21 |
| lewix | for some reasons i can edit a file. how can i work around it | 05:21 |
| KM0201 | digitalfiz: http://edu.kde.org/kstars/ try searching their support docs | 05:21 |
| aperson | here's a toughie - anyone care to help me troubleshoot why I can't get sound working from my ubuntu-minimal install? there's so much to go through I don't know where to start asking questions | 05:21 |
| lewix | can i change the properties from read only to whatever? | 05:21 |
| xangua | aperson: install pulseaudio | 05:21 |
| aperson | xangua, done that | 05:22 |
| lewix | how do you change the properties of a gile that is on read only | 05:22 |
| lewix | file* | 05:22 |
| Curly_Q | Nice command history -c | 05:22 |
| aperson | Curly_Q, ctrl+r | 05:23 |

| jsjgruber | digirak: you can get the source code for just about any package you get in a ubuntu repository. The command is apt-get source packagename. There's information on getting dependencies and commands to build in the ubuntu wiki | 05:23 |
| vikas | QUESTION: I'm unable to hear sound on Ubuntu 10.10. I guess its coz of sound-drivers,if its so please tell me how to install in it? | 05:23 |
| LinuxGuy2009 | Ok I figured out pyneighborhood, I edited the launcher to include gksudo and now it mounts the NAS shares just fine. They are added to /etc/mtab which is a list of mounted filesystems from what I read. But when i reboot, my NAS shares are no longer mounted. Can I copy and paste the lines from /etc/mtab and paste them to the bottom of /etc/fstab and that will make them permanent or are they formatted differently? | 05:23 |
| === root is now known as Guest12261 | ||
| bastidrazor | lewix: what file and how are you trying to edit it? | 05:24 |
| lewix | /var/www/ | 05:24 |
| arow | lewix: go into the terminal, locate your file, and run sudo chmod u+w | 05:24 |
| arow | oh, wait | 05:24 |
| lewix | thank you | 05:24 |
| brokendatapoint | why is the default Package Manager for Ubuntu, Apt-get and not Aptitude? | 05:24 |
| aperson | brokendatapoint, to save space on the install cd | 05:24 |
| lewix | arow, you mean sudo chmod g+w | 05:24 |
| aperson | brokendatapoint, also, apt-get is not a package manager | 05:25 |
| sambagirlx | is there a pastebin for png files? | 05:25 |
| bastidrazor | lewix: that is a directory not a file. | 05:25 |
| brokendatapoint | it makes that much difference? | 05:25 |
| xangua | sambagirlx: imagebin | 05:25 |
| aperson | brokendatapoint, apparently. First thing I do is install aptitude | 05:25 |
| brokendatapoint | aperson: it is not? me too... | 05:25 |
| bucky | brokendatapoint, what's wrong with synaptic? | 05:25 |
| prod_ | sarcarlson, what would be the best way to compare the 2 users i make to test? | 05:25 |
| jsjgruber | vikas: if you need certain drivers for sound, if they are part of the kernel they should be loaded automatically as part of booting up. I've had trouble with my sound card being muted before. It's probably worth looking at properties in the sound menu and looking at the various sound resources it can control and how they are set | 05:25 |
| lewix | bastidrazor, i mean /var/www/foo | 05:25 |
| rww | sambagirlx: http://imagebin.org/ | 05:25 |
| aperson | bucky, you have to use it via a gui for one | 05:25 |
| drthoth | I have a broadcom 4306r2 14e4:4320, installed b43-legacy, enabled the proprietary driver, rebooted. wlan0 show sup, gets mac, and ip but can't route and it's rated @ 1Mbps. It also gives me an error with an alias in jockey.log | 05:25 |
| brokendatapoint | bucky: could not give definitive answer, just like Aptitude via CLI | 05:26 |
| bastidrazor | lewix: okay, how are you trying to edit it? gedit, nano, vim? | 05:26 |
| sambagirlx | thank you rww | 05:26 |
| lewix | bastidrazor, gedit | 05:26 |
| brokendatapoint | which is what aperson said | 05:26 |
| bastidrazor | lewix: in a terminal or alt+F2 dialog type gksudo gedit /var/www/foo | 05:27 |
| bucky | brokendatapoint, i got aptitude.. let me guess.. it only installs it by default when you install synaptic | 05:27 |
| vikas | jsjgruber: I have checked everything. I went to SYSTEM>PREFERENCES> SOUNDS. There everything seems to be okk.. | 05:27 |
| aperson | bucky, no | 05:28 |
| lewix | bastidrazor, thanks i just got it now. i was reading the file permissions on linux | 05:28 |
| brokendatapoint | bucky: i do not use Synaptic unless I use the Auto Update feature, Aptitude is simple, fast, can be run remotely, so i like it | 05:29 |
| bastidrazor | lewix: i'm not sure what you mean by that but you're welcome. | 05:29 |
| jsjgruber | vikas: if you right click on the speaker in the panel at the top right of your screen, you can bring up sound preferences (probably the same as what you found in the menu). If you go to the hardware tag you can check for mute and test your speakers | 05:30 |

| lewix | bastidrazor, on a file persimission i understand that there is the owner of the file, the group and the other. and everybody but what exactly is the group | 05:33 |

| thejackal | Why is it that even though I save the xorg.conf that the nvidia settings app makes, I still can't use 2 monitors? | 05:35 |
| setuid | Anyone know how I can configure themes in gdm? The gdm in 10.10 has no theme capability. Why was that removed? | 05:35 |
| bastidrazor | lewix: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FilePermissions will explain better than i. | 05:36 |
| lewix | thanks | 05:36 |
| k4g6 | thejackal: have you tried setting up multiple monitors through the nvidia-settings gui | 05:36 |
| setuid | gdm-config is gone, rep;laced by a generic 'gdmsetup', which has no themeing | 05:36 |
| xangua | setuid: because it was re-writen | 05:36 |
| setuid | xangua, gutted is more like it | 05:36 |
| setuid | xangua, 90% of the functionality was stripped out | 05:36 |
| jsjgruber | you should have an icon that looks like a speaker with sound waves coming out of it at the top right of your screen. It doesn't matter, though it is the same as the sound menu under "preferences" if you go there and go to the hardware tab you can check the mute setting and volume and you can press the test button to bring up the speaker test | 05:36 |
| Philippe | mmm hi again am really new to ubuntu and am having a problem with a micro ds card , i formated it and put some files on it then i took it out and put it back in and i can't put any new files on it says "error the destination is read only" | 05:37 |

| KirkMcDonald | santhosh: Assuming you mean vim, I don't think plain vi can do it. | 05:41 |
| santhosh | oh | 05:41 |
| santhosh | i meant vi | 05:41 |
| setuid | xangua, it's not the gtk theme... I need to theme gdm, not gtk | 05:41 |

| Madpilot | ubottu, tell santhosh about cli | 05:47 |
| ubottu | santhosh, please see my private message | 05:47 |
| RickyT | That's a "no" then? | 05:47 |
| jsjgruber | did it display anything? it should give you a list of devices you could play a sound on | 05:47 |
| bucky | santhosh, if you install gpm you'll get a cursor you can cut and paste with | 05:47 |
| brokendatapoint | Madpilot: wd | 05:47 |
| Madpilot | brokendatapoint, wd? | 05:47 |
| vikas | jbjgruber: i have typed - alsaplay -| | 05:47 |
| santhosh | Madpilot: i dont have menus or accessories menus or naything its a server version | 05:47 |
| santhosh | bucky: do i get cursor in server version | 05:48 |
| santhosh | how to install gpm | 05:48 |
| brokendatapoint | Madpilot: Well Done | 05:48 |
| jsjgruber | vikas: that should be alsaplay -l (it is a dash followed immediately by a lower case l | 05:48 |
| santhosh | sudo apt-get install gpm? | 05:48 |
| KirkMcDonald | santhosh: My recommendation is to ssh into the machine from another computer. | 05:48 |
| bucky | yes | 05:48 |
| Madpilot | santhosh, there's links to further reading at the URLs the bot just sent you, check them. | 05:48 |
| Curly_Q | Brokendatapoint I have found that GVIM is quite the program with a GUI in mind. vi is OK for SSH or remote logging in. | 05:48 |
| santhosh | KirkMcDonald: that is waht im doing | 05:48 |
| brokendatapoint | bucky: if santhosh is asking about getting a cursor, oh dear | 05:48 |
| ray_ | so far so good! I didnt realize how easy to install x86 & x64 Ubunta Desktop on my laptop and desktop pc... | 05:48 |
| bastidrazor | santhosh: then skip how to get to a terminal/CLI and read the bits about using CLI | 05:48 |
| santhosh | KirkMcDonald: i am using windows 7 and using the git bash to ssh into the linux server | 05:48 |
| KirkMcDonald | santhosh: I recommend PuTTY as a Windows ssh client. | 05:49 |
| RickyT | Then i shall leave you with the wonderful words FUCK YOU EXECUTABLEBIT!!! | 05:49 |

| vikas | jsjgruber: okk | 05:50 |
| Sina3 | without him knowing? | 05:50 |
| Curly_Q | It is a Windows app that works great with Linux. | 05:51 |
| Madpilot | Sina3, a existing superuser can upgrade another user. And please don't ask about "hacking" here, OK? | 05:51 |
| Curly_Q | I think they have a Linux app too. | 05:51 |
| santhosh | brokendatapoint: its just strange to know that a total console can have a mouse cursor | 05:51 |

| Curly_Q | It also works with tunneling. | 05:51 |
| nexes | Sina3: They would, of course, be able to check your rights at any point, unless you were to revert your account prior to any opportunity they would have to access the machine. | 05:51 |
| jsjgruber | vikas: I'm sorry. My memory isn't so good. Does aplay -l give you anything? | 05:52 |
| Sina3 | nexes, i dont think he would check | 05:52 |
| hilarie | How can I open a read only file GUI like? The way I am doing it currently is "sudo gedit" and then find through its built in menu, what I would like to do is right click the text file I am trying to edit | 05:52 |
| santhosh | brokendatapoint: im getting an error gpm installation E:sub-process usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code(1) | 05:52 |
| bucky | Sina3, i had a cisco instructor that forgot to change the default root passwd | 05:52 |
| nexes | Sina3: Is it a school issue machine? | 05:52 |
| vikas | jsjgruber: no buddy, it said alsaplay: command not found. | 05:52 |
| Sina3 | nexes, yes it is | 05:52 |
| Philippe | hello anyone know hot to deal with permisions on an micro sd card? | 05:52 |
| Madpilot | bucky, stuff like that would be another reason Ubuntu has no active root account... | 05:53 |
| brokendatapoint | santhosh: you are in a terminal or a console? | 05:53 |
| Sina3 | but i asked him to put ubuntu on it | 05:53 |
| nexes | Sina3: Why specifically do you want root on it? | 05:53 |
| xangua | hilarie: not good isea using sudo with a graphic aplication, use gksu instead | 05:53 |
| santhosh | console | 05:53 |
| santhosh | brokendatapoint: console | 05:53 |
| Sina3 | nexes, install google chrome | 05:53 |
| Sina3 | and other usefull programs. | 05:53 |
| jsjgruber | vikas: could you try aplay -l instead? it should be aplay, not alsaplay. | 05:53 |
| Sina3 | nothing bad. | 05:53 |
| brokendatapoint | k, type this cmd and start fresh => cd && clear | 05:53 |
| KirkMcDonald | Philippe: Which filesystem is on there? If it's FAT (which I would expect) there wouldn't really be any permissions. | 05:53 |
| bucky | Madpilot, what's the default passwd for ubuntu if you make one during install? | 05:53 |
| Sina3 | im 15 and i like the computer i use, i dont want to break it | 05:53 |
| jsjgruber | vikas: sorry for misleading you with the alsaplay thing. | 05:53 |
| hilarie | GKSU so I would do "gksu gedit"? | 05:53 |
| nexes | Sina3: I would just ask him to either install the applications for you, or to set up the machine in a way to allow you to install software without having unrestricted root access. | 05:54 |
| bucky | Madpilot, *dont' make one | 05:54 |
| yuanjie | hi | 05:54 |
| Philippe | yes fat so i dont know what happende i took it out and now i cant put anything in it | 05:54 |
| Madpilot | bucky, there is no default PW. The liveCD/desktop is passwordless, the install will not continue AFAIK if you don't give it a pw | 05:54 |

| Sina3 | nexes can we PM? | 05:54 |

| Madpilot | Dead_Storage, nope. There are alphas out of 11.04 if you're feeling very brave. This early in the alpha releases, I gather the brokenness is epic. | 05:59 |
| brokendatapoint | santhosh: what does this cmd do? => sudo apt-get update | 05:59 |

| arow | ubuser: you should be able to use "sudo apt-get install firefox" | 06:50 |
| ubuser | i click on my short cut and its gone | 06:50 |
| ubuser | okay | 06:50 |
| ubuser | simple enough | 06:50 |
| Blue11 | ajah: dual boot would allow you to have like windows and linux on the same hard drive, and you would choose at boot time (grub) which one you wanted. is that what you want? | 06:50 |
| col0ur | Hello. I'm trying to install 10.10 Netbook Remix via USB, but the install is stuck on the page "Preparing to install Ubuntu Netbook." Any suggestions? | 06:50 |

| ubuser | well i searched for firefox | 06:51 |
| ajah | Blue11, i want multy boot and install the new os on the hard disc without quiting the ubuntu i know how to install another os in ordinary way | 06:51 |
| Blue11 | col0ur: i had similiar difficulties I ended up just installing the regular version. be aware that the netbook remix for 10.10 installs iirc the unity interface. | 06:51 |
| arow | apt-get should tell you if you've already got it installed | 06:51 |
| ubuser | but kinda still new to linux and there are no exe's ... i tried clickin them all but nothin worked | 06:51 |
| ubuser | its saying its still on there | 06:52 |
| Blue11 | ajah: sorry i dont know how to do that, other then virtualbox. | 06:52 |
| ubuser | but i have completely removed them all from sypnatic | 06:52 |
| ubuser | and reinstalled them | 06:52 |
| col0ur | Blue1, iirc unity being...? | 06:52 |
| ubuser | now im stuck with a shitty one | 06:52 |
| Blue11 | col0ur: its a new interface that ubuntu is developing | 06:52 |
| ubuser | plus flash | 06:53 |
| Sc0tt | has anyone in here had experience upgrading gfx drivers in ubuntu i'm completely stumped followed guides and nothings works for me | 06:53 |
| col0ur | ah.. | 06:53 |
| ubuser | teh still dont work | 06:53 |
| Blue11 | col0ur: i played with it long enough to know it wasnt for me. | 06:53 |
| col0ur | Blue1, Unity replaces? | 06:53 |
| Blue11 | col0ur: gnome or kde | 06:53 |
| Madpilot | ubuser, in the terminal, type "firefox" (no quotes) - what happens? | 06:53 |
| bazhang | col0ur, traditional gnome | 06:53 |
| ubuser | no command | 06:53 |
| col0ur | ah | 06:53 |
| col0ur | so just try the regular version you're saying? | 06:53 |
| ubuser | not a command* | 06:53 |
| bazhang | col0ur, yep | 06:54 |
| Blue11 | col0ur: if your looking for the traditional interface, yes | 06:54 |
| bazhang | ubuser, whats the exact error | 06:54 |
| col0ur | bazhang, well see there's a problem with that | 06:54 |
| ubuser | bash: firefox: command not found | 06:54 |
| Madpilot | ubuser, "sudo apt-get install firefox" will get it back | 06:55 |
| ubuser | having to use epiphany | 06:55 |
| bazhang | ubuser, open the package manager and install it then | 06:55 |
| ubuser | any other suggestions | 06:55 |
| ubuser | completely deleted them | 06:55 |
| ubuser | and reinstalled | 06:55 |
| col0ur | i have a Broadcom card. i need to modprobe wl to make it work, which is fine. and earlier, as i had a casper on my netbook remix version, and so i connected to a wired connection, got the module, and used it for my wireless. | 06:55 |
| ubuser | took a minute to get my repositories yayness. | 06:55 |
| Blue11 | ubuser: have you tried sudo dpkg -i firefox | 06:56 |
| Madpilot | ubuser, you shouldn't have to do anything to the repositories to get Firefox back again. | 06:56 |
| === richard is now known as richardr | ||
| col0ur | but for a number of reasons i have no access to a wired connection atm, and so i'd be left without internet for a time, and thus wouldn't be able to update. | 06:56 |
| ubuser | i know i just got teh net | 06:56 |
| col0ur | Also, does selecting "Ubuntu Desktop Edition" from the Netbook Remix login window revert back to Gnome? | 06:56 |
| ubuser | error processing firefox cannot access archive | 06:56 |
| ubuser | no such file or directory with th dpkg | 06:57 |
| Madpilot | ubuser, have you done something to your repositories listings? Firefox is in Main... | 06:57 |
| ubuser | no i downloaded them | 06:57 |
| ubuser | i mean | 06:57 |
| ubuser | it was on the computer, but i went to download the flash players, and they werent working | 06:57 |
| Madpilot | ubuser, you downloaded Firefox from the web? A .deb file? | 06:58 |
| Sc0tt | If i don't have 3d support that means I need to upgrade my graphics driver correct? | 06:58 |
| bullgard4 | What basic commands does Disk Utility (palimpsest) use to arrive at a judgement like: "Drive is functional"? | 06:58 |
| ubuser | so i went online and there was this thing you had to do with a lot of commands and some guy made a script, i checked out the codes, and it deleted my firefox, and his link wasnt good and it isnt installing back | 06:58 |
| ubuser | yeah i asked for the link lol | 06:58 |
| bazhang | ubuser, what script give us a link | 06:58 |
| ubuser | umm alright | 06:58 |
| Madpilot | ubuser, the apt-get command I gave you should reinstall firefox. I think you've done more damage to your install than just deleting FF | 06:59 |
| col0ur | bazhang, Blue1, see above | 07:00 |
| chaospsychex | i need help adding a win7 entry to grub2 | 07:00 |
| bazhang | chaospsychex, check the grub2 instructions yet? | 07:00 |
| Sc0tt | can you make live cd/usb out of win7? | 07:01 |
| ubuser | ill try it again.. | 07:01 |
| bazhang | Sc0tt, try in ##windows | 07:01 |
| chaospsychex | yeah and i cant make heads or tails out of it | 07:01 |
| ubuser | but still my shortcut is sayin it isnt there maybe this script changed the place or something | 07:01 |
| Sc0tt | was just curios why he's adding it to grub | 07:01 |
| bazhang | chaospsychex, explain exactly what you can't understand | 07:01 |
| Blue11 | col0ur: i dont know honestly -- I know if you go with the default, I tried to install trad. gnome AFTER installing the netbook remix, and all I got was unity | 07:01 |
| zs1otb_ | I have setup ntp server 10.04 on 3 machijnes here. All three have different times, whu would that be. I understood that they should all 3 display that same time.. | 07:01 |
| chaospsychex | i have it installed | 07:01 |
| chaospsychex | for some reason it's gone from the menu | 07:01 |
| Madpilot | ubuser, please give us a link to this script you ran. It really sounds like it broke more than just Firefox. | 07:01 |
| chaospsychex | sudo update-grub is not detecting it like it should either | 07:02 |
| faryshta | Hello. Which command is to install audio and video codecs? | 07:02 |
| Blue11 | chaospsychex: tell me what happened? is grub broke or? | 07:02 |
| Blue11 | sorry was awk for a bit | 07:02 |
| bastidrazor | faryshta: sudo apt-get install ubuntu-restricted-extras ::this normally installs everything needed | 07:03 |
| zs1otb_ | I have setup ntp server 10.04 on 3 machines here. All three have different times, why would that be. I understood that they should all 3 display that same time.. | 07:03 |
| col0ur | Blue1, and what about the Broadcom module? | 07:03 |
| chaospsychex | its not broke,the windows entry is just not there after a restart for some reason | 07:03 |
| Blue11 | chaospsychex: you can try rebuiling it, i have link just a min | 07:03 |
| ubuser | maybe ill find the link | 07:04 |
| ubuser | sounds like a virus | 07:04 |
| faryshta | Thanks bastidrazor | 07:04 |
| Blue11 | chaospsychex: this MIGHT work. YMMV applies: http://pkill-9.com/?p=314 | 07:04 |
| Madpilot | ubuser, running random scripts you find on the web... not the greatest thing to do. It doesn't have to be a "virus" if you ran it yourself... | 07:05 |
| bastidrazor | faryshta: you're welcome. | 07:05 |

| inktri | if i have a symbolic link that points to a file called "test.html" and i move the "test.html" file to another folder, will the symbolic link still work? | 07:06 |
| ubuser | it had the file, and it deleted firefox | 07:06 |
| ubuser | yay found itno | 07:06 |
| bastidrazor | inktri: no, you'll need to remake the link to the actual location of the file. | 07:06 |
| ubuser | not like i had history | 07:06 |
| Blue11 | inktri: because symlinks are tied to the physical locan | 07:07 |
| inktri | ok thanks | 07:07 |
| Blue11 | been there, done that! | 07:07 |
| col0ur | Blue1, is there anything I can do about the Broadcom? | 07:07 |
| Blue11 | col0ur: wlan ? | 07:07 |
| col0ur | Blue1, yes wifi | 07:07 |
| Madpilot | ubuser, you found a link to this script? | 07:07 |
| Sc0tt | Any idea what it takes to get my graphics card working properly? I tried upgrading my card and every step of the way I have errors not even sure if the guide is the correct one | 07:08 |
| chaospsychex | how do i add a menu entry to grub if i have the UUID of the partition i want to boot to? | 07:08 |
| Blue11 | col0ur: ahh my friend had problems with that.... | 07:08 |
| col0ur | ya | 07:08 |
| col0ur | Blue1, before i installed it on my caper on my USB when i had access to a wired connection. but for a number of reasons i dont have a wired connection atm, and so if I redid my USB with the regular version i wouldn't have access to that module until i get a wired conection which could be a while | 07:09 |
| col0ur | erm Blue11 | 07:09 |
| Sc0tt | guess I'll ask another day | 07:10 |
| Blue11 | col0ur: i think this is the link he used: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=1071920&mode=linear | 07:10 |
| col0ur | Blue11: "Wired Internet access on the machine with the wireless card on it, in " | 07:10 |
| col0ur | :P | 07:10 |
| col0ur | i dont have that | 07:10 |

| mohddzulffiqar | newbies here | 07:14 |
| Madpilot | mohddzulffiqar, be polite. | 07:14 |
| mohddzulffiqar | ok madpilot... | 07:14 |
| mohddzulffiqar | so.. | 07:14 |
| mohddzulffiqar | this is my first time using xubuntu | 07:15 |
| mohddzulffiqar | anyone can teach me.. | 07:15 |
| juniour | mohddzulffiqar wt you wanna to know? | 07:16 |
| Madpilot | mohddzulffiqar, there's #xubuntu, although it's often quiet | 07:16 |
| mohddzulffiqar | emm.. | 07:16 |
| mohddzulffiqar | how to install software?? | 07:16 |
| mohddzulffiqar | seriously how is it | 07:16 |
| frenocha | mohddzulffiqar: it's fairly self-explanatory in general. May I suggest asking a more specific question? | 07:16 |
| mohddzulffiqar | what the file types for ubuntu`s installler?? | 07:17 |
| juniour | mohddzulffiqar which software you wanna to install | 07:17 |
| juniour | ? | 07:17 |
| mohddzulffiqar | minefield...do you know that software?? | 07:17 |
| Madpilot | mohddzulffiqar, Ubuntu uses repositories, so you don't usually have to download random stuff off websites... | 07:17 |
| chaospsychex | Blue11: I've had to do that method before, when i installed win7 after ubuntu. Could you explain what that exactly does? why would i have to re-install grub2 to the MBR if the entry just dissapeared | 07:17 |
| chaospsychex | i haven't re-installed windows | 07:18 |
| chaospsychex | nothing has changed | 07:18 |
| Madpilot | mohddzulffiqar, there's enough differences between Ubuntu and Xubuntu that you really should ask on #xubuntu | 07:18 |
| mohddzulffiqar | oic... | 07:18 |
| mohddzulffiqar | hehe.. | 07:18 |
| chaospsychex | all i did was delete a ntfs partition i was storing files on for backup | 07:18 |
| hilarie | What was the equivalent to sudo that you should use in GUI programs? | 07:19 |
| mohddzulffiqar | how to switch to #xubuntu..??? | 07:19 |
| juniour | mohddzulffiqar try /join #xubuntu | 07:19 |
| bonjoyee | can i add multiple cache folders for apt-get? | 07:19 |

| frenocha | teapollonius: clicking the NetworkManager icon in the top right corner is a good first step - then pick your network, fill in your password, and you're basically done. | 07:30 |
| ubuser | how was i posed to no the link was dead anyway | 07:30 |

| juniour | sc0tty try this system->addministration->update manager | 07:38 |
| teapollo | frenocha, yeah, that was my thought process as well. Sorry for the delay but I went to retrace my steps and had to go get the wifi password off the router. After putting in the password it keeps poppuing up saying Unlock Keyring. What's that mean? | 07:39 |
| juniour | sc0tty try this system->addministration->update manager | 07:39 |
| juniour | sc0tt try this system->addministration->update manager | 07:40 |
| Sc0tt | http://paste.ubuntu.com/560519/ | 07:40 |
| Sc0tt | there are no updates to install | 07:40 |
| frenocha | teapollo: the keyring is a method of storing all passwords used under one main password, by default the original login password - the analogy is that it's a ring keeping all of your keys (read: passwords) together, i.e. a keyring | 07:40 |
| ubuser | was my file right | 07:40 |
| frenocha | teapollo: depending on when it's asking what, you might need to fill in your login password, your previous login password or simply click 'always allow access' | 07:41 |

| teapollo | frenocha, is there any way to find out what that password is and/or reinstall to get a new one? I just want to be able to use this computer, they told me that there is only one password anything could be, but that password does nothing on this keyring thing. | 07:43 |

| arturo | I can't see internal mobile broadband SIM. Before updating I could use it. VAIO VGN-Z11WN | 09:05 |
| ramontayag | Gnea, how I know that it's jdb2 that's causing this is through iotop | 09:05 |
| ramontayag | That's what you wanted to see, right? The screenshot of jdb2 process hogging the disk io? | 09:06 |
| Gnea | ramontayag: what are you talking about? why can't you just post a screenshot? | 09:06 |
| Gnea | er | 09:06 |

| Gnea | ramontayag: yeah, what's your cpu/ram? | 09:07 |
| loros | Gnea Terminal should show neville@neville-desktop ;-$ but insted show the corresponding number of squares . This also happens when I type text into gedit | 09:07 |
| kt_ | Gnea: now what, bro ? :D it says no such partition | 09:07 |
| Gnea | kt_: okay, try changing 'ufs2' to 'ufs1' on both lines | 09:07 |

| loros | my ubuntu terminal works fine it is my brothers that has the problem and I cannot get a screenshot | 09:09 |

| kt_ | for pastebiniting it | 09:11 |
| loros | might be the go | 09:11 |

| taleon | hi | 09:12 |
| _`-` | hm, so if i hit ctrl-alt-f6, and start irssi through ssh, is there a way to sort of 'pop out' and execute other commands? like another tab | 09:13 |
| Gnea | kt_: okay, just for fun, change "set root=(hd0,ufs1)" to "set root=(hd0,ufs)" | 09:13 |
| Gnea | kt_: and try that | 09:14 |
| kt_ | ok | 09:14 |
| kt_ | and ufs in insmod also? | 09:14 |
| Gnea | _`-`: what are you trying to do? | 09:14 |
| Gnea | kt_: no | 09:14 |
| Gnea | kt_: leave insmod alone | 09:15 |
| _`-` | probably nothing logical, but if i was in ctrl-alt-f6 (surely there's another name for this) and currently using irssi through ssh, how could i, for example, grep without logging out of ssh or going back to my graphical desktop? | 09:16 |
| Gnea | _`-`: the name would be "the 6th console terminal" and you could avoid logout issues remotely by using screen on the remote end | 09:18 |
| vincent | Hello | 09:18 |

| bullgard4 | !sound | breaker313 | 09:21 |
| ubottu | breaker313: If you're having problems with sound, click the Volume applet, then Sound Preferences, and check your Volume, Hardware, Input, and Output settings. If that fails, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Sound - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting - http://alsa.opensrc.org/DmixPlugin - For playing audio files, see !players and !mp3. | 09:21 |
| Gnea | VF_123: what are you using to connect with? network manager or wicd? | 09:21 |
| jussi | How does one check which display driver the machine is using? | 09:21 |
| raviepic3 | people i would like to remove the entire username and password based auth mechanism from my server and implement key based, how can i ? i read about rsa based but that only allows ssh and not the gui mode is it ? | 09:21 |
| raviepic3 | what would be the right approach for me to consider ? | 09:21 |
| kt_ | in set root | 09:21 |
| kt_ | what should i type? | 09:21 |
| kt_ | ufs or ufs1 or ufs2 ? | 09:22 |
| VF_123 | Wicd in the tray | 09:22 |
| Gnea | raviepic3: what you read is correct. | 09:22 |
| kt_ | in insmod its ufs2 now | 09:22 |
| === flone_ is now known as flone | ||
| Gnea | kt_: leave set root alone | 09:22 |
| raviepic3 | Gnea, so how would i enable key based auth for other forms of login as well ?> like GUI mode | 09:22 |

| gunndawg | Does anyone who uses WeeChat know how I can get a channel list on the left side that shows the chanels I am in | 09:22 |
| VF_123 | it's a fresh Ubuntu 10.10 install Gnea | 09:22 |
| Gnea | VF_123: and you're sure network manager has been completely disabled? | 09:22 |
| VF_123 | How do I check that? | 09:22 |
| Gnea | raviepic3: are you talking about using a key-card? | 09:22 |
| Gnea | VF_123: by checking the process list | 09:23 |
| Gnea | gunndawg: oddly enough, a #weechat does exist :) | 09:23 |
| raviepic3 | Gnea, dont know what a key card is, when googled getting weird results | 09:23 |
| raviepic3 | kindly educate me | 09:23 |
| gunndawg | Gnea yeah but they offered only "read the FAQ" which I did look over | 09:24 |
| Jordan_U | kt_: Gnea: The device names you are using are completely invalid. They need to be something like (hd0,a) or (hd0,msdos1,bsd1), and if you really don't have any BSD bootloader installed then chainloader won't do you any good. | 09:24 |
| Gnea | raviepic3: a card that you swipe through a card reader connected to the computer to use in lieu of a password | 09:24 |
| Gnea | gunndawg: then tell them the FAQ didn't cover it | 09:24 |
| raviepic3 | Gnea, no no, similar to rsa for all auth mechanisms | 09:24 |
| gunndawg | Gnea: based off prior experience (not saying all) with trying to get ubuntu help on irc I'll get the response "look harder" | 09:25 |
| Gnea | Jordan_U: ugh, and here I thought I could depend upon ubuntuforums | 09:25 |
| VF_123 | I think it is disabled Gnea | 09:25 |
| gunndawg | Gnea: instead of actual help | 09:25 |
| VF_123 | I only see wicd | 09:25 |
| spenza | #banjarnegara | 09:25 |
| raviepic3 | Gnea, like when system starts it should ask to paste the key contents instead of username and password | 09:25 |
| raviepic3 | and if the contents match allow him/her | 09:26 |
| raviepic3 | no methods like these ? | 09:26 |
| jacktheripper | how can I mark files on fuse drives executable ? (i.e. tweak the default mount permissions) | 09:26 |
| Jordan_U | Gnea: See /usr/share/doc/grub-common/examples/grub.cfg for example entries for various OSs. | 09:26 |
| Gnea | gunndawg: keep in mind that the help you're looking for is with a specific application, which could be ran from slackware or redhat, thus it is distribution independent and the help channel for that application is the best place to ask, even if some of the people there aren't knowledgable | 09:26 |
| ramontayag | Ok it *seems* that the current stable kernel still have some journaling problems with some hard disks. I'm on ext4 - should I move to ext3? For those that didn't see my earlier messages: in iotop, every 20-30 seconds jdb2/sda1-8 pops up with 99.99% disk usage. it slows down my system and is really annoying. Been reading around and there seems to be so many solutions I don't know where to start. And I don't understand most of them. What should I do? | 09:26 |
| Gnea | raviepic3: that doesn't make any sense, at all. | 09:26 |
| raviepic3 | Gnea, why ? | 09:27 |
| ramontayag | If my questions are too technical for this room, where should I go? | 09:27 |
| Switch | ramontayag: what's the question? | 09:27 |
| === _Dotted is now known as Dotted | ||
| Switch | ramontayag: nobody answered your question because nobody cares | 09:28 |
| Jordan_U | Gnea: You may need to "insmod part_bsd" (So that grub will recognise BSD partition tables). Running "ls -l" at the grub shell can be usefull as well. | 09:28 |
| ramontayag | Switch, in iotop, every 20-30 seconds jdb2/sda1-8 pops up with 99.99% disk usage. it slows down my system and is really annoying. Been reading around and there seems to be so many solutions I don't know where to start. And I don't understand most of them. What should I do? | 09:28 |
| Gnea | raviepic3: because it provides no logical method of passing the information from the user interface to the computer. | 09:28 |
| ramontayag | Switch, yeah I wasn't sure if I was in the right room :) | 09:28 |
| Switch | ramontayag: I don | 09:28 |
| Switch | ramontayag: I don't know of any where else | 09:29 |
| Gnea | Switch: you've been warned. | 09:29 |
| ramontayag | Switch, http://superuser.com/questions/101640/disk-operations-freeze-debian has a similar problem but it seems particular to his hard disk. I'm on a seagate 1tb. | 09:29 |
| raviepic3 | Gnea, what are the methods i can handle to avoid dos and ddos attacks in my server ? | 09:29 |
| Gnea | Jordan_U: yeah, that's what we were trying with insmod bsd | 09:29 |
| noobie25 | hi...can someone recommened me a iso burner for ubuntu? | 09:29 |
| raviepic3 | except for switching it off :) | 09:29 |
| Jordan_U | Gnea: It's "part_bsd". | 09:29 |
| Gnea | raviepic3: setting up a firewall, for starters | 09:29 |
| ssfdre38 | where is apt.conf at? | 09:29 |
| Gnea | !firewall | raviepic3 | 09:30 |
| ubottu | raviepic3: Ubuntu, like any other Linux distribution, has firewall capabilities built-in. The firewall is managed using the 'ufw' command - see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UFW | An alternative to ufw is the 'iptables' command - See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/IptablesHowTo | GUI frontends such as Firestarter/Gufw (Gnome) or Guarddog (KDE) also exist. | 09:30 |

| Switch | ramontayag: If there's not a solution, then it's a bug. | 09:31 |
| Gnea | Jordan_U: really? I looked in /boot/grub/ and found no part_bsd.mod | 09:31 |
| ramontayag | Switch, i also read using ext3 instead. but that would mean half a day of setting my the desktop again. but it seems it's my only option | 09:32 |
| Jordan_U | Gnea: Then you must be using a very old version of GRUB2. If you're using anything older than 1.98 you should definitely upgrade.' | 09:32 |
| noobie25 | soreau: sorry to bother you....i did 'sudo apt-get install k3b' unable to locate package k3b. where do i update? | 09:33 |
| VF_123 | About the b43 problem: I installed the LP-PHY driver, I'm using the network manager applet to connect. | 09:33 |

| Gnea | VF_123: okay, then they are likely cancelling each other out - you need to run one or the other, but not both | 09:34 |
| Jordan_U | Gnea: Do you have a /usr/lib/grub/i386-pc/part_bsd.mod ? | 09:34 |

| linux | soreau: i need that ocaml 3.12 for work so i dont want to have something someone somehow "patched" around | 10:05 |
| soreau | linux: Now there is ppa-purge which allows you to easily undo what the ppa did. Its safer to use a ppa than build from source or at least, the likelyhood of you managing to screw up your system into an unrepairable state is less | 10:06 |

| soreau | jussi: For the open driver you want radeon (the default), not radeonhd (discontinued) | 10:08 |
| Gnea | soreau: yeah, I just don't appreciate it when people come in here and expect us to do all of the legwork for them and then they throw a hissy-fit when they expect us to go above-and-beyond because they don't have any patience. | 10:09 |

| david__ | Ascavasaion, just guessing but if soud like you have to rewrite the xorg and tell it the 2 cards and 2 displays .. but i am very new still | 10:41 |
| greppy | gunndawg: I'd say you could go to keybindings under preferences in gnome and either remove the keybinding or change it. | 10:42 |
| Ascavasaion | david__: No, the Xorg file I understand... but the Xorg.0.log file shows that the kernel itself cannot do that feature. I need to know what lightweight distro can. | 10:42 |

| Fuchs | barbadillo: every other way (such as changing the sources list and then downgrading) is not recommended at all | 11:07 |
| sipior | barbadillo: unfortunately, there's no real way to revert to an older version. | 11:07 |

| fdsaseemslegit | repgahroll: Edit this to personalize it for your machine, sudo mkdir /media/sda2 && sudo mount -t ext3 /dev/sda2 /media/sda2 this is a way to mount a filesystem on another partition of the same HDD, 1st you create a directory to mount the filesystem to, then mount it to that directory | 11:09 |

| sipior | milen8204: no, and i suspect from the name that i will be pleased to remain ignorant in this regard :-) | 11:11 |
| Fuchs | nicofs: or, the method I don't really like: rename the gksudo binary, create a script named gksudo which executes gksudo -g instead | 11:11 |
| nicofs | Fuchs, rename gksudo and write a script to run that renamed gksudo with the -g option? | 11:11 |

| nicofs | Fuchs, i can work with German documentation *g* | 11:13 |

| ubottu | pradeep: webmin is no longer supported in Debian and Ubuntu. It is not compatible with the way that Ubuntu packages handle configuration files, and is likely to cause unexpected issues with your system. | 11:21 |

| Dr_Willis | it pays to read the docs... | 12:39 |

| Roobet | how to install Mark Shuttleburger tracking program? | 13:59 |
| Fuchs | psykasso: some basic ideas despite something eating your CPU / RAM would be I/O load, which can be created by desktop search indexing tools | 13:59 |
| Fuchs | abhijain: you have to enable the "universe" repository in your package management tool | 13:59 |

| bazhang | Roobet, there is not such thing. please desist | 14:00 |
| baltazor | bazhang: but this instruction for freebsd | 14:00 |
| Fuchs | psykasso: would you mind writing my nick the right way? Thanks. | 14:00 |
| psykasso | Fuchs: sorry .... mistype ;) | 14:00 |
| c2tarun | :) | 14:00 |
| Fuchs | psykasso: in that case I would recommend checking the hard disk (including DMA mode) with tools such as hdparm | 14:00 |
| itsme2011 | sipior: This is the link for file "gedit /etc/network/interfaces" http://pastebin.com/download.php?i=cPP5NDbs | 14:00 |

| Gnea | hsa2: not all of what's there is necessary | 14:00 |
| Fuchs | psykasso: and looking for suspicious messages in `dmesg` or in the file /var/log/messages | 14:00 |

| sipior | itsme2011: gah. download links? | 14:01 |
| baltazor | bazhang: loader.conf in ubuntu? | 14:01 |
| Fuchs | psykasso: as a side note: the tab key should autocomplete nicks for you in most IRC clients | 14:01 |
| abhijain | Fuchs, how to | 14:01 |
| sipior | itsme2011: why are the interface lines commented out in /etc/network/interfaces? | 14:01 |
| jetboyjetgirl | how do I view my system logging for ubuntu 10.10 so that I can see if my computer is finding an mp3 player that I've just connected? | 14:02 |
| Fuchs | abhijain: depends. What version of ubuntu are you using? | 14:02 |
| psykasso | Fuchs: indeed autocompletion is cool :) I did a dmesg | grep -i errors with nothing in there | 14:02 |
| bazhang | jetboyjetgirl, which mp3 player | 14:02 |
| Fuchs | psykasso: don't grep for the specific term errors | 14:02 |
| jetboyjetgirl | sansa fuze | 14:02 |
| itsme2011 | sipior: I tried using "pppoeconf" command and my Network manager showed "Not Managed", to resolve this, I had to comment them. | 14:02 |
| codemagician | how do I view a spawn a PDF viewer from the bash shell? | 14:03 |
| abhijain | Fuchs, 10.10 | 14:03 |
| jrib | codemagician: evince | 14:03 |
| Gnea | jetboyjetgirl: it should show up in Places | 14:03 |
| sipior | itsme2011: so the mtu is getting set, and then gets reset? when does that happen? | 14:03 |
| codemagician | jrib, cool.. is that the default app that ships with 10.10 ? | 14:03 |
| shcherbak | codemagician: evince, pdftotext | 14:03 |
| jrib | codemagician: yep | 14:04 |
| DJones | jetboyjetgirl: I've got a Sansa Fuze & haven't had any problems with it on Ubuntu, its worked perfectly, all I do is plug it in & it gets mounted as a usb drive | 14:04 |
| codemagician | jrib, thanks | 14:04 |
| psykasso | Fuchs: nothing in htop ... | 14:04 |
| jrib | codemagician: you can also just use "xdg-open file.pdf", then it will be like you double clicked on a pdf | 14:04 |
| jetboyjetgirl | I'm not seeing it under places | 14:04 |
| Fuchs | abhijain: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Repositories/Ubuntu << | 14:04 |
| Fuchs | abhijain: you would need "universe". Afterwards you should be able to install netbeans | 14:05 |
| psykasso | Fuchs, i did a grep ERR in /var/log/messages but nothing there ... should i check for smt else there ? | 14:05 |
| mitm | is it a good idea to use ntpdate on server? | 14:05 |
| Fuchs | psykasso: could you pastebin the whole thing? | 14:05 |
| itsme2011 | sipior: Sorry it never got set by just editing these files, I have to set it using "ifconfig" manually command on every shutdown. | 14:05 |
| dimm | is ext2 is good for /boot for 10.04 ? | 14:05 |
| bazhang | http://art.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1675524 jetboyjetgirl this fuze? | 14:05 |
| psykasso | Fuchs, dmesg or /var/log/messages or both ? | 14:05 |
| DJones | jetboyjetgirl: On teh Fuze, you may need to go into the settings menu and set the USB Mode to MSC, I can't rememebr whether that was something I needed to do | 14:05 |
| lduros | hello, does anybody use php5-cli? In the terminal when I enter "php", the cursor goes one line down and is just idling, while it should load the interpreter. I've tried to reinstall the package without success | 14:05 |
| Fuchs | psykasso: both | 14:05 |
| codemagician | jrib, thanks thats a cool tip too | 14:05 |
| hsa2 | lduros, php -e should be i think | 14:06 |
| hsa2 | for interactive shell | 14:06 |
| jetboyjetgirl | yeah.... thanks for that bahzang, that's the one | 14:06 |
| lduros | hsa2: thanks. just tried and i'm getting the same thing with php -e -- one line down and idling | 14:07 |
| sipior | itsme2011: have you tried configuring the interface in /etc/network/interfaces, and just ignoring network-manager? | 14:07 |
| Gnea | jetboyjetgirl: have you installed linux on your fuze yet? | 14:07 |
| greppy | lduros: it's waiting for input | 14:07 |
| greppy | lduros: what are you trying to do? | 14:07 |
| lduros | greppy it's not, I try: echo "hello"; | 14:07 |
| psykasso | Fuchs, just a sec for firefox to open .... urgh ..... | 14:07 |
| s0ullight | hi, can i install ubuntu without having to install the bootloader? | 14:07 |
| lduros | greppy: and enter, and I get nothing in return | 14:08 |
| jetboyjetgirl | lol, uh oh.... i'm still running the other firmware... | 14:08 |
| bazhang | s0ullight, why would you | 14:08 |
| jetboyjetgirl | that may have somethin to do with it | 14:08 |
| sipior | itsme2011: actually, it's odd that the value in /etc/ppp/options gets ignored. if you run the pppoe config utility, does an error appear concerning mtu? | 14:08 |
| === hsa2 is now known as zz_hsa2 | ||
| greppy | lduros: try <? echo "hello"; ?> ENTER, then hit ctrl-d | 14:08 |
| lduros | greppy: I'm just trying to use the php interpreter as I would with python or irb | 14:08 |
| s0ullight | bazhang, i dont want to overwrite the windows bootloader | 14:08 |
| Gnea | jetboyjetgirl: shouldn't matter either way, perhaps you just need to mount it manually | 14:08 |
| bazhang | s0ullight, its a trifle to reinstall grub | 14:08 |
| itsme2011 | sipior: Yes, my "etc/network/interfaces" has an entry for MTU, I have pasted the owl file, please check | 14:09 |
| greppy | lduros: it's not really designed to work that way, python and irb are designed to work that way. | 14:09 |
| jetboyjetgirl | ok, thanks for the help.... gonna try a couple things | 14:09 |
| lduros | greppy: it worked -- so you have to exit the command to have it executed? | 14:09 |
| greppy | lduros: yes. | 14:09 |
| lduros | greppy: It kinda sucks, I thought it would be an interactive interpreter :-) | 14:09 |
| s0ullight | bazhang, i actually can install the bootloader separetly, i want to install it on the bootsector of the partition, but there is a bug in the ubuntu installer. | 14:09 |
| sipior | itsme2011: i guess i meant, enable the interface properly in /etc/network/interfaces. | 14:09 |
| bazhang | s0ullight, link please to the bug report | 14:09 |
| s0ullight | bazhang, therefore, i want to install it manually | 14:10 |
| s0ullight | ok sec. | 14:10 |
| lduros | greppy: reading some tutorial' | 14:10 |
| s0ullight | bazhang, https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ubiquity/+bug/614309 | 14:10 |
| lduros | greppy: it says php -a | 14:10 |
| lduros | greppy: that's the interactive interpreter sort of | 14:10 |
| itsme2011 | sipior: No, how do I do that. I am connecting now using nm-applet, (the GUI), not using pppoeconf command anymore. | 14:10 |
| psykasso | Fuchs, http://pastebin.com/wrB1KPYK | 14:11 |
| lduros | greppy: If i had read the man entry I'd prbably know that. Thanks for your help. php -a works! :-) | 14:11 |
| s0ullight | somehow the devs refuse to see that as a bug, but that could really affect installations | 14:11 |
| bazhang | s0ullight, dual boot with windows 7? which is installed first, windows? | 14:12 |
| sipior | itsme2011: actually, is there no setting for mtu in nm-applet? | 14:12 |
| s0ullight | it is a netbook i bought preinstalled with win7, i dont want to mess its recovery system | 14:12 |
| sipior | itsme2011: and does mtu auto-negotiation not work for you? you got the 1460 value from your isp? | 14:13 |
| Fuchs | psykasso: processor and dma of the hard disk seem fine to me | 14:13 |
| Fuchs | psykasso: how exactly is the system slow? | 14:13 |
| psykasso | Fuchs, yeah me too ... the /var/log/messages is too large should i paste the last 1000 ? | 14:14 |
| bazhang | s0ullight, its been confirmed as a bug in the report, I've not experienced this myself, and its only i f you choose a custom install of grub from what I see on that bug report | 14:14 |
| Fuchs | psykasso: yes, why not | 14:14 |
| itsme2011 | sipior: yes, their is, but its not working. I need to set MTU to 1460 from 1492(default). | 14:14 |
| psykasso | Fuchs, it hangs on opening applications, on right clicks, on everything practically ... | 14:14 |
| sipior | itsme2011: and you got that value from...? | 14:14 |
| babu__ | hai | 14:14 |
| s0ullight | bazhang, indeed, i want to install grub to the bootsector of the partition im installing ubuntu on, not the mbr | 14:14 |
| ack | join #drupal | 14:14 |
| bazhang | s0ullight, that being said, and you know how to install grub2 manually, what's the issue? | 14:15 |
| Fuchs | psykasso: having a look at ~/.xsession-errors might help as well | 14:15 |
| s0ullight | bazhang, cant disable the installation of the bootloader during the installation of ubuntu | 14:15 |

| itsme2011 | sipior: Any ideas? | 14:19 |
| sipior | itsme2011: hmm. well, i'd say ditch nm-applet and configure the interface the old-fashioned way that happens to actually work. have a look here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ADSLPPPoE. not sure why the mtu setting in nm-applet wouldn't work, but for a fixed interface, there's not much point in troubling with it. | 14:19 |

| MWesten | Hello friends, I have a question: I'm testing some settings on my network, so I'm using "macchanger" so I can change my MAC Address (Wlan0), it always been working fine, but now, it changes, but after some time (say 20 mins) it suddenly changes again to the original one. This is happening in Ubuntu 10.10 because in 10.04 never happened before. Thanks for your help. | 14:19 |
| waza-ari | jrib: its useless in a way that any files below the directory i executed it are gone? | 14:20 |
| babu__ | why means??i had installed a software in a drive other than C...i uninstalled it...but the folder is not removed...so only | 14:20 |
| Gnea | babu__: are you booted into windows or ubuntu right now? | 14:20 |
| babu__ | ubuntu | 14:20 |
| Gnea | babu__: then you should remove from within windows | 14:20 |
| psykasso | Fuchs, well the cpus seem pretty idle in htop ... should i check iostat or smt like that ? | 14:21 |
| jrib | waza-ari: *[^.] expands to all files that do not begin nor end in a '.'. So if the last thing it expands to is a directory, everything gets moved there. If it's not a directory, then mv will complain and do nothing | 14:21 |
| babu__ | i tried in windows also...but in vain | 14:21 |
| Fuchs | psykasso: iotop, yes | 14:21 |
| Gnea | babu__: as administrator | 14:21 |
| Gnea | babu__: ? | 14:21 |
| jrib | waza-ari: thus I don't really see a case where such a command would be used... | 14:21 |
| babu__ | yes!!! | 14:21 |
| Natsirt_ | join #spip | 14:21 |
| waza-ari | jrib: your right, it is not very usefull. i intended to do something else and was searching my files now :) | 14:22 |
| rtyuio | hello there | 14:22 |
| Gnea | babu__: what is the name of the program you removed? and you did it from control panel->add/remove programs? | 14:22 |
| rtyuio | ppl | 14:22 |
| jrib | waza-ari: oh, a 3rd scenario: if it expands to only 2 files, it will rename the first thing to the last thing :) | 14:22 |
| psykasso | Fuchs, here's the xsession-errors | 14:22 |
| psykasso | http://pastebin.com/b04kG7Dr | 14:22 |
| jrib | waza-ari: what did you intend? | 14:22 |
| babu__ | yes i did it from control panel | 14:22 |
| Gnea | babu__: it's possible the program needs another step to finish removing, perhaps it has other components installed under the same name | 14:23 |
| waza-ari | jrib: since it was my home-dir, there where many more files. but i found them in the last remaining folder which is there :) | 14:23 |
| rtyuio | i can't able to install java on i got this error : http://paste.ubuntu.com/560619/ could anyone tell what's wrong ? | 14:23 |
| Fuchs | psykasso: nothing special in there as well (besides the fact that you are using a hack for skype video support, and a firefox plugin (probably flash) is running amok. Should not be the root cause of the problems, though. | 14:23 |
| Ormie | Hello | 14:23 |

| Gnea | babu__: how are you trying to remove it from ubuntu? what steps exactly | 14:24 |
| Gnea | Ormie: there's x-chat | 14:24 |
| psykasso | Fuchs, yeah .... just a sec for iotop | 14:24 |
| itsme2011 | sipior: Yes, this method will resolve my issues, I have already tried it, but i was looking for nm-applet to work, since typing commands (pppoeconf) every time to connect to internet is annoying. | 14:24 |
| Fuchs | rtyuio: this has nothing to do with java, but rather other packages wich seem to be broken | 14:24 |
| Ormie | Gnea, I need mIRC to build bots | 14:24 |
| MWesten | bilalakhtar: Thanks!, Ubuntu is great, this issue just started with 10.10 and yes, I have all the updates. | 14:24 |
| rtyuio | well what's the solutioN ? Fuchs | 14:24 |
| Gnea | Ormie: what sort of bots? | 14:24 |
| Fuchs | rtyuio: there seems to be aproblem with the grub-pc (your bootloader) package, it fails to configure it properly | 14:24 |
| Fuchs | rtyuio: hard to say. sudo apt-get -f install would be worth a try | 14:24 |
| babu__ | i tried rm -rf /media/Backups/Program\ Files\ \(x86\)/ | 14:24 |
| MWesten | bilalakhtar: The macchanger command is working as always, the thing is the MAC suddenly changes again to the original one | 14:25 |
| babu__ | it shows the error rm: cannot remove `/media/Backups/Program Files (x86)/Adobe/Adobe Bridge CS3': Directory not empty | 14:25 |
| sipior | itsme2011: the link presented shows you how to start the link at system boot. | 14:25 |

| rtyuio | sorry i don't get you | 14:25 |
| babu__ | same error | 14:25 |
| rtyuio | i asked you what i have to do ? Fuchs | 14:26 |
| Ormie | Gnea, My job on IRC is to build bots and customer can ask to write this or/and that sort of bots | 14:26 |
| Fuchs | rtyuio: trying sudo apt-get -f install in order to try to fix the grub-pc package | 14:26 |
| Gnea | babu__: okay, try it like this: rm -rf /media/Backups/Program\ Files\ \(x86\)/Adobe/Adobe\ Bridge\ CS3 | 14:26 |

| itsme2011 | sipior: yes, but I have other users, whom I don not want to connect to Internet, this method will connect any users who "logs in" to internet, I used to avoid this happening, by using nm-applet. | 14:27 |
| babu__ | same error | 14:28 |
| Gnea | Ormie: oh, #gazionet? | 14:28 |

| MWesten | I was answering to some old conversation about an old issue, sorry, I'll repost my question | 14:30 |
| Fuchs | rtyuio: that is strange. What software are you using to create and run the virtual machine? | 14:30 |
| rtyuio | i don't know i post everything here [bean] http://paste.ubuntu.com/560619/ | 14:30 |
| rtyuio | xen | 14:30 |
| rtyuio | why ? | 14:30 |
| MWesten | I'm testing some settings on my network, so I'm using "macchanger" so I can change my MAC Address (Wlan0), it always been working fine, but now, it changes, but after some time (say 20 mins) it suddenly changes again to the original one. This is happening in Ubuntu 10.10 because in 10.04 never happened before. Thanks for your help. | 14:30 |
| Gnea | babu__: okay, try this command: mkdir /media/Backups/test | 14:30 |
| queso | Could someone point me to a guide on setting up PPTP VPN via commandline on Ubuntu Linux (latest stable version)? | 14:31 |
| Gnea | babu__: does it work? | 14:31 |
| [bean] | rtyuio: it says your grub config is messed up or something. i dont understand french | 14:31 |
| psykasso | Fuchs, btw installing stress i saw in iotop that my disk was reading/writing very slowly with big pauses ... | 14:32 |
| babu__ | ya | 14:32 |
| Fuchs | psykasso: you might consider reading the hdparm output, then | 14:32 |
| Fuchs | psykasso: plus reading out smart values with smartctl or similar, to see whether the disk is dying | 14:32 |
| Fuchs | rtyuio: I wonder whether this might be a xen problem, then | 14:32 |
| Fuchs | rtyuio: the problem is that the configure script of the grub-pc package fails, due to communication failure with devicemapper | 14:33 |
| sss | !controls | sss | 14:33 |
| ubottu | sss, please see my private message | 14:33 |
| Fuchs | rtyuio: so basically you can't install anything now, not only java, as it will try to configure the unconfigured grub-pc package, which will fail | 14:33 |
| Gnea | babu__: now try: rm -rf /media/Backups/test | 14:33 |

| waza-ari | Hey all, my laptop doesnt boot anymore (ubuntu 10.04) since it had an instant poweroff due to empty battery... i alwas get the following error when trying to start: "status: {DRDY ERR} ... failed command: READ DMA EXT ... end_request: i/O error, dev sda, sector 299777953" and lots of other stuff... my windows 7 on the other partiotions starts and from there i can also access my ext3 filesystem. any idea where this comes from? | 14:35 |
| Gnea | MichaelDobrovits: again? | 14:35 |
| ray | hi all | 14:36 |
| ActionParsnip | waza-ari: boot to liveCD and test your RAM and test your partition health | 14:36 |
| compdoc | waza-ari, sounds like a hard drive problem | 14:36 |
| Gnea | MichaelDobrovits: since when are video files kept within an .exe? | 14:36 |
| MichaelDobrovits | Gnea, i have an executable camera footage of a security camera | 14:36 |
| Gnea | MichaelDobrovits: what is the make and model number of the camera please | 14:36 |
| ray | which is better POL or Wine? | 14:36 |
| MichaelDobrovits | Gnea, the file contains somesort of a player and 14 channel video | 14:36 |
| ActionParsnip | ray: playonlinux is a wrapper app for wine | 14:37 |
| Gnea | MichaelDobrovits: so run it in wine | 14:37 |
| MichaelDobrovits | Gnea, it's a security camera | 14:37 |
| psykasso | Fuchs, hdparm http://pastebin.com/T19bvn6D | 14:37 |
| Gnea | MichaelDobrovits: yes, and it has a make/model | 14:37 |
| ActionParsnip | ray: they are not exclusive, so comparing is not possible | 14:37 |
| waza-ari | ActionParsnip: Ram i dont think since windows on the same machine is workling perfectly... but i'll test the partition... which tool? fschk? | 14:37 |
| ajah | i formated usb flash drive with gparted to fat16 and fat32 and i cant boot it whats wrong | 14:37 |
| MichaelDobrovits | Gnea, just a second i saw the model somewhere inside the file | 14:37 |
| ray | for Starcraft 2? | 14:37 |
| ActionParsnip | waza-ari: it's still wise to test the RAM as RAM i very sensitive to sudden voltage changes | 14:37 |
| babu__ | wat???????? | 14:37 |
| Gnea | MichaelDobrovits: you can't get it off of the camera itself? | 14:37 |
| ActionParsnip | ray: check the appdb | 14:38 |
| erUSUL | waza-ari: https://ata.wiki.kernel.org/index.php/Libata_error_messages | 14:38 |
| Gnea | babu__: eh? | 14:38 |
| ActionParsnip | waza-ari: yes use fsck, look at the man page when you get to the live desktop | 14:38 |
| babu__ | tell something | 14:38 |
| erUSUL | waza-ari: can be a loose cable can be not enough power for the sat disks can be that the disk is daying .... | 14:38 |
| MichaelDobrovits | Gnea, from strings player.exe i get at the end of file TibetSystem.DVR | 14:38 |
| Gnea | babu__: perhaps that directory doesn't need to be removed | 14:38 |
| Fuchs | psykasso: I would need a bit more than that. I am not sure whether it was the -I or -a parameter, but there was one showing all information | 14:38 |
| ActionParsnip | ray: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZBq8HLfsKTo | 14:38 |
| babu__ | wat's this silly ans | 14:39 |
| Gnea | MichaelDobrovits: try it like this: strings -a player.exe | less | 14:39 |
| MichaelDobrovits | Gnea, tried vbox with record my desktop but it doesn't show anything but blank | 14:39 |
| Gnea | MichaelDobrovits: it has DRM | 14:39 |

| erUSUL | sss: sudo apt-get install eclipse | 14:41 |
| ActionParsnip | sss: eclipse is in the repos | 14:41 |
| Gnea | MichaelDobrovits: no, I mean that it is using Digital Rights Management, so you cannot record the video using a screencapture unless you record it outside of vbox | 14:41 |
| sss | thanks, all | 14:41 |
| ajah | i have and a unformated usb flash drive how to format it | 14:41 |
| ActionParsnip | ajah: use gparted | 14:41 |
| waza-ari | ajah: use gparted | 14:41 |
| ActionParsnip | ajah: or fdisk then mk2fs if you relish cli ;) | 14:42 |
| MichaelDobrovits | Gnea, tried also in windows and it has some sort of Digital Rights Managment because in windows it records a blank screen | 14:42 |
| Gnea | MichaelDobrovits: then don't record it in windows | 14:42 |
| MichaelDobrovits | Gnea, somehow the player passes the driver or something so the recording program cannot capture it | 14:42 |

| ubuntuluver | hello i have question for developers | 15:08 |
| nexes | Is this actually being done by the person mentioned, kunwon1, or is this spambot actually trying to make that channel look bad? | 15:08 |
| waza-ari | does somethink like usb-creator exist to make a bootable systemrescuecd on usb? My laptop doesnt seem to boot from dvd-rom... seems this one also is broken.. | 15:08 |
| ubuntuluver | today i was reading this and was shocked http://kernelnewbies.org/Ext4 | 15:09 |
| goltoof | can't they just block any thread containing "kunwon1" ? | 15:09 |
| ubuntuluver | >Why 48-bit and not 64-bit? There are some limitations that would need to be fixed before making Ext4 fully 64-bit capable, which have not been addressed in Ext4. | 15:09 |
| joshb | kunwon is one of the ##politics idiots | 15:09 |
| goltoof | or Liberals and leftists? | 15:09 |
| ubuntuluver | why does ext4 not support 64bit | 15:09 |
| bazhang | ubuntuluver, you just tried this. not here | 15:09 |
| mrmist | nexes: most likely the latter, it's just the latest round of spam. | 15:09 |
| compdoc | ubuntuluver, it does | 15:09 |
| ActionParsnip | ubuntuluver: it does, I have 64Bit Linux OSes installed on Ext4 | 15:10 |
| ubuntuluver | compdoc no it doesnt r u stupid read my quote | 15:10 |
| Dcite | ubuntuluver: What are you talking about? I'm using ext4 on a 64bit system.. | 15:10 |
| nexes | mrmist: Ah, okay. Then I suppose I should feel bad that the guy is probably getting hammered with angry PMs. | 15:10 |
| compdoc | hes not be talking about a 64bit OS | 15:10 |
| sipior | ActionParsnip: he's talking about the block addressing, which is currently 48-bit. | 15:10 |
| [bean] | ubuntuluver: canonical doesnt make ext4, they just use it | 15:10 |
| ActionParsnip | sipior: yeah just found out | 15:10 |

| tehloki | Hi. I'm running wubi with windows 7 and I just did an update and grub no longer loads when i choose the ubuntu option from the win7 bootloader. It just looks for wubildir, finds it on hd0,1, then restarts. is this a known issue? what should i do | 15:11 |
| ActionParsnip | ubuntuluver: dude, the maximum filesize (for 1 individual file) is 16Tb and the biggest partition is 1 Exabyte. Why does it need to be bigger? | 15:12 |
| tehloki | it seems like every time i update grub in ubuntu, it breaks the boot process with wubi | 15:12 |

| sgo11 | goltoof, chrome, firefox. | 15:13 |

| goltoof | sgo11: keep in mind some websites load a different page for mobile devices, ie m.google.com | 15:13 |
| llutz_ | ActionParsnip: your statement is like "640k are enough" :) | 15:13 |
| sipior | tehloki: no, i'm afraid there isn't (to my knowledge) | 15:13 |
| Dcite | Is WUBI effectively a persistent USB install on hard disk? | 15:13 |
| tehloki | it's a virtual disk thing | 15:13 |
| sgo11 | goltoof, yeah, that's why I am trying to access mobile version under PC. how to do that? thanks. | 15:13 |
| goltoof | sgo11: it's not a config in the browser, but how the site is built to look on mobile vs pc browsers | 15:14 |

| DasEi | Encry9: obviousley a typo in the path saved you there | 15:28 |
| tzaeru | mh, is it generally possible to install a distro (ubuntu in this case) on top of another distro while the comp is running? :P | 15:28 |
| Gnea | itsme2011: if you're using /etc/network/interfaces, then you give up using networkmanager | 15:28 |

| tzaeru | not really I don't :P | 15:29 |

| robert__ | im trying to share a folder and keep getting the error Failed to execute child process "testparm" (No such file or directory) have no idea what to do | 15:29 |
| trinikrono_ | tzaeru: cant boot from usb? | 15:30 |
| ikonia | robert__: testparm is a script samba uses to validate it's config | 15:30 |
| ActionParsnip | tzaeru: grab a 1Gb SD card or USB and boot that | 15:30 |
| tzaeru | trinikrono_, no, too old bios :[ | 15:30 |
| ActionParsnip | tzaeru: got a floppy drive? | 15:30 |
| waza-ari | Hey all, my laptop doesnt boot anymore (ubuntu 10.04) since it had an instant poweroff due to empty battery... i alwas get the following error when trying to start: "res 51/01:93:a1:3f:de/01:00:11:00:00&e0 Emask 0x1 (device error) status: {DRDY ERR} ... failed command: READ DMA EXT ... end_request: i/O error, dev sda, sector 299777953" and lots of other stuff.. | 15:30 |
| tzaeru | no | 15:30 |
| tzaeru | ooh, though, thinking of it, I do have a hardrive somewhere with ubuntu installed.. | 15:30 |
| robert__ | should i uninstall samba and re install | 15:30 |
| ActionParsnip | tzaeru: dang, then take the drive out and put it in another system, install then put it back in | 15:30 |
| sambagirlx | how can i get the usb devices to register in vbox? i did the sudo adduser command but it still wont show the usb devices in any vm i have. | 15:31 |
| waza-ari | I started rescuedisk now, made fsck which showed claean and i could mount the filesystem without any errors... why doesnd my system boot? | 15:31 |
| ikonia | robert__: did you actually install samba in the first place? | 15:31 |
| goltoof | sambagirlx: try #vbox | 15:31 |
| tzaeru | ActionParsnip, that's a pretty good plan yeah :P | 15:31 |
| bazhang | sambagirlx, which version of vbox | 15:31 |
| ActionParsnip | tzaeru: or you could set up a PXE boot server and boot from that if the system supports it | 15:31 |
| bazhang | sambagirlx, from the repos or the website | 15:31 |
| ActionParsnip | sambagirlx: you need virtualbox 4 from the site (closed source) for usb support | 15:31 |
| sambagirlx | bazhang let me update the version first. as for asking in #vbox they never could figure it out | 15:31 |
| robert__ | yea when i first went to share my folder i hade to install samba and nfs | 15:32 |
| sambagirlx | i did both i uninstalled the one for website and then i did it from the repo | 15:32 |
| bazhang | sambagirlx, see what ActionParsnip just said | 15:32 |
| repgahroll | how can i allow anyone to modify a partition after manual mount? I've tried to set the folder permission to 777, the device also... | 15:32 |
| ikonia | robert__: I'd look at re-installing it then as testparm should come with it | 15:32 |
| sambagirlx | ok actionparsnip thank you | 15:32 |
| waza-ari | ActionParsnip: i made fsck now, and there where no errors. i could also mount my filesystem from livesystem. Anyway i cant boot.. | 15:32 |
| sambagirlx | thanks everyone brb | 15:32 |
| trinikrono_ | tzaeru: you can try this scary one https://help.ubuntu.com/6.10/ubuntu/installation-guide/i386/linux-upgrade.html | 15:32 |
| ikonia | repgahroll: what file system is on it ? | 15:32 |
| itsme2010 | My Internet was down for last 4 minutes, if any one had prosted any replies, I request you repost it. I was known by username itsme2011. | 15:32 |
| repgahroll | ikonia, ntfs | 15:32 |
| ikonia | repgahroll: you can't, it's mounted in userspace for your user | 15:32 |
| repgahroll | ikonia, nope... it's mounted as root | 15:33 |
| ActionParsnip | waza-ari: then reinstall grub2 to the drive and you should be ok | 15:33 |
| sss | How do I install flash? | 15:33 |
| ikonia | itsme2010: stop messing with /etc/interfaces and ifconfig and use network manager | 15:33 |
| erUSUL | sss: install ubuntu-restricted-extras | 15:33 |
| ActionParsnip | sss: sudo apt-get install flashplugin-nonfree | 15:33 |
| ikonia | repgahroll: 1.) you shouldn't be logged in as root 2.) then only the root user will be able to use it | 15:33 |
| robert__ | whats the easy way to uninstall samba | 15:33 |
| tzaeru | trinikrono_, need to try | 15:33 |
| tzaeru | repartiotioning kinda sucks, was hoping to save both the disks -.O | 15:33 |
| ikonia | robert__: open the package manager, search for samba click "uninstall" | 15:33 |
| DasEi | robert__: sudo apt-get remove --purge samba | 15:34 |
| === catalyst is now known as Guest47543 | ||
| repgahroll | ikonia, so... how can i mount it in order to use as a user? If only root is allowed to mount? =/ | 15:34 |
| trinikrono_ | tzaeru: it would be better if you can use the other drive | 15:34 |
| sambagirlx | here is something else that just started occurring today. then i go to open up a usb device on my laptop it automatically launches vlc and when i open up movies directory or music vlc launches again. what would cause this? it just started this stuff. | 15:34 |
| itsme2010 | ikonia: Then, How do I resolve this issue? | 15:34 |
| ikonia | repgahroll: you don't, fuser is userspace so won't allow it | 15:34 |
| waza-ari | ActionParsnip: i just did fsck /dev/sda5. or are there any more parameters i should have specified? Why should it be grub? but ill try as soon memtest finished its work... | 15:34 |
| robert__ | ok waznt sure if it waz easyer threw the terminal | 15:34 |
| ActionParsnip | waza-ari: read the man page, like I said | 15:34 |
| ikonia | itsme2010: you use network manager to configure your card, and you clear down the entries you have made in the interfaces file | 15:34 |
| ikonia | robert__: no | 15:35 |
| repgahroll | ikonia, there should be a way. i just want to allow a user to write a partition.... =/ =/ | 15:35 |
| ikonia | repgahroll: there isn't a way | 15:35 |
| ikonia | repgahroll: it's "USER" space | 15:35 |
| repgahroll | i need to write things on that partition... that must be a way to do that. | 15:35 |
| itsme2010 | ikonia: ok, I deleted everything, in Interface file and saved it. | 15:36 |
| sambagirlx | it is making some kind of association and vlc is default now | 15:36 |
| ikonia | repgahroll: you're asking how to do it - I'm telling you "you can't" so saying "there must be a way" won't change it | 15:36 |
| ikonia | itsme2010: I didn't say delete everything | 15:36 |
| trinikrono_ | repgahroll: you cant chmod it? | 15:36 |
| ikonia | itsme2010: I said delete the entries you have made | 15:36 |
| ikonia | trinikrono_: it's ntfs | 15:36 |
| trinikrono_ | :D | 15:36 |
| bazhang | sambagirlx, so right click folder choose open with and select nautilus | 15:36 |
| trinikrono_ | repgahroll: its mounted? | 15:36 |
| sambagirlx | when i rightclick bazhang it just launches the applicaiton | 15:37 |
| Pici | repgahroll: How did you mount the drive? Using the terminal? | 15:37 |
| repgahroll | trinikrono_, yep. it's mounted. | 15:37 |
| llutz_ | repgahroll: you want your users to write on a filesystem, not a partition. read about ntfs mount-options how to do it | 15:37 |
| sambagirlx | there are no options | 15:37 |
| trinikrono_ | i would gksudo nautilus it :D | 15:37 |
| itsme2010 | ikonia: its ok, I had deleted entire file once, since then, the file contains only my entries. | 15:37 |
| robert__ | how do i make sure my ftp is working i installed proftpd | 15:37 |
| bazhang | sambagirlx, create a folder on the desktop and right click it, bring up a menu | 15:38 |
| Pici | robert__: Try to ftp to yourself. | 15:38 |
| ikonia | itsme2010: then that's a problem as "lo" needs to be configured | 15:38 |
| sambagirlx | i am now but i cant run vlc in root | 15:38 |
| ActionParsnip | robert__: connect via ftp to localhost | 15:38 |
| bazhang | sambagirlx, you ran vlc with sudo? why? | 15:38 |
| repgahroll | Pici, yep. | 15:38 |
| ActionParsnip | sambagirlx: you can but you shouldn't | 15:38 |
| sambagirlx | no | 15:38 |
| sambagirlx | bazhang i just mentioned it what is the problem is that all folders automatically launch vlc | 15:39 |
| sambagirlx | all of um | 15:39 |
| robert__ | lol ive only been usein ubuntu well this is my second week so not sure how to ftp myself lol | 15:39 |
| sambagirlx | i right click on anything and vlc launches | 15:39 |
| bazhang | sambagirlx, and I told you how to adjust that | 15:39 |
| itsme2010 | ikonia; we are talking about "/etc/network/interfaces ", file right? | 15:39 |
| ankgui | /join #ubuntu-in | 15:39 |
| ikonia | itsme2010: yes | 15:39 |
| Pici | robert__: ftp localhost or use your favorite ftp client and connect to 'localhost' | 15:39 |
| sambagirlx | hold on bazhang | 15:40 |
| ActionParsnip | robert__: in terminal run: ftp yourusername@localhost | 15:40 |
| repgahroll | well. in fact, chmodding the device solved the issue. thanks guys. | 15:40 |
| ActionParsnip | robert__: or use nautilus or an ftp client like gftp | 15:40 |
| gaurdro | Is there any way to change arch (ie go from x86->x86_64) without performing a clean install? | 15:41 |
| itsme2010 | ikonia: Do I have to, reinstall ubuntu to recover that file? | 15:41 |
| ActionParsnip | gaurdro: thats the only way | 15:41 |
| sambagirlx | i did that just now bazhang | 15:41 |
| trinikrono_ | repgahroll: :D chmod wins | 15:41 |
| ikonia | itsme2010: that's a bit over the top, there are examples on the internet | 15:41 |
| jacquesdupontd | bon deja ya des gros con de vieux qui le regardent juste en face de moi et je sais pas ce qu'ils veulent vraiment je vais leur mettre la pression ils vont se casser bon et les prix c'est pas moi qui les fait donc je peux rien changer c'est 25 x 5 125 je viens d'aller me casser les couilles au chiottes pour peser couper tout ca DONC | 15:41 |

| ActionParsnip | gaurdro: if you have more than 3Gb RAM you can install the PAE kernel | 15:42 |
| sambagirlx | i select music from dropdown menu and vlc launches instead of nautilus | 15:42 |
| sambagirlx | or explorer | 15:42 |
| Roasted_ | Has anybody used Zentyal to configure a FreeRadius server on Ubuntu? I'm curious if the access points that I am to set up with Zentyal/Ubuntu are to get DHCP addresses or if they must be static. | 15:42 |
| sambagirlx | maybe i need to reboot | 15:42 |
| jhello | 这里有中国人吗 | 15:42 |
| mbeierl | repgahroll: the device permissions will revert with reboot. I think you might need to put your users in the "disk" group as it has write perms on the permission by default. | 15:42 |
| bazhang | sambagirlx, are you using some kind of tweak script? | 15:42 |
| sambagirlx | i downloaded a bunch of torrents | 15:42 |
| ActionParsnip | sambagirlx: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1631961 | 15:42 |
| joshb | hi, how do i re | 15:42 |
| bazhang | !cn | jhello | 15:42 |
| ubottu | jhello: For Ubuntu help in Chinese 您可以访问中文频道：打字 /join #ubuntu-cn 或者 打字 /join #ubuntu-tw 或者 打字 /join #ubuntu-hk | 15:42 |
| sambagirlx | thank that could be it? | 15:42 |
| sambagirlx | brb | 15:43 |
| ActionParsnip | sambagirlx: replace rhythmnbox with vlc in your head ;) | 15:43 |
| itsme2010 | ikonia: How do I know, which example to apply? | 15:43 |
| jhello | 哈哈 总算见到中国人～ | 15:43 |
| gaurdro | Thanks ActionParsnip, bazhang | 15:43 |
| ActionParsnip | joshb: what is 're'? | 15:43 |
| ikonia | itsme2010: look at the example, and find one that fits just "lo" device | 15:43 |
| bazhang | jhello, english here | 15:43 |
| jhello | ok~ | 15:43 |
| repgahroll | mbeierl, uh. i'll keep that in mind! however, i'm aware that the permission will revert and that's the expected behavior. thank you. | 15:43 |
| bazhang | jhello, #ubuntu-cn for Chinese | 15:43 |
| ActionParsnip | Roasted_: if its a server,I'd use a static IP everytime | 15:43 |
| joshb | action, typo, i was going to say "how do i re-install media_player_gstreamer ? | 15:44 |
| mbeierl | repgahroll: just making sure :) | 15:44 |
| jhello | yeah i have noticed that | 15:44 |
| jhello | thx | 15:44 |
| ActionParsnip | joshb: use tab to complete nicks ;) | 15:44 |
| Roasted_ | ActionParsnip, it is a server, but my question wasn't about the "box" itself. I'm curious if the access points hooked up to the server should be DHCP or static. | 15:44 |
| joshb | yea, ActionParsnip | 15:44 |
| joshb | good point | 15:44 |
| sambagirlx | oh i understand now for this forum use rhythmnbox instead of vlc or i mean opposite to substitute for this exercise ok. | 15:44 |
| joshb | ActionParsnip: im very tired and i just want the stuff to work | 15:45 |
| ActionParsnip | joshb: you can use software centre and mark the package name for re-installation | 15:45 |
| Roasted_ | ActionParsnip, our current Windows Radius setup I believe hands out DHCP to the access points. But it has a lot of problems... problems that many users have told me that are non existent in FreeRadius land (linux based) which is why we're trying it. I'm just setting up at est environment and trying to understand if they should or should not be DHCP (the aps) | 15:45 |
| sambagirlx | i see so i discovered a major bug in ubuntu or linux in general. i should get a reward :) | 15:45 |
| joshb | ActionParsnip: that's under system | 15:45 |
| ActionParsnip | Roasted_: its not something I've used. You could trial both ways for 2 weeks to test maybe | 15:45 |
| joshb | > administration>synaptic packagemanager right ? | 15:46 |
| ActionParsnip | joshb: applications -> software centre or synaptic under sytstem, your call | 15:46 |
| bazhang | sambagirlx, what is that | 15:46 |
| Roasted_ | ActionParsnip, my issue is I'm not even sure if DHCP is *possible* with Zentyal. That's all I'm trying to figure out. | 15:46 |
| joshb | ActionParsnip: thx, been there before but couldn't locate it, but i'll try again | 15:46 |
| sambagirlx | well it is on a need to know circumstance now bazhang sorry :) | 15:46 |
| waza-ari | ActionParsnip: okay, i ran fsck -n /dev/sda5 in order to check and there was "Error reading block 819532 (attempt to read block from filesystem resulted in short read) while getting niext inote from scan". how do you recommand to go on? | 15:46 |
| ActionParsnip | sambagirlx: while you read it, just change the word rhythmnbox in your head to vlc. This isn't new at all | 15:46 |
| bazhang | sambagirlx, there is not a bug unless you file a bug report. | 15:47 |
| DasEi | Roasted_: it is, and it dpends on your needs whether staic/dhcp. | 15:47 |
| ActionParsnip | waza-ari: gran the ultimate boot cd and use the manufacturers tool to test the drive | 15:47 |
| sambagirlx | well i ran into the bug then. | 15:47 |
| bazhang | sambagirlx, please do so if you think you have truly found one | 15:47 |
| ActionParsnip | sambagirlx: yes, but the guide gives a fix | 15:47 |
| Roasted_ | DasEi, have you used Zentyal? Because I'm just not seeing in the interface if its possible. | 15:47 |
| sambagirlx | it was already encountered bazhang. | 15:47 |
| === CripperZ is now known as CripperZ-v6 | ||
| sambagirlx | someone else encountered it prior to me. but it is still something that should be corrected in the future. | 15:48 |
| ActionParsnip | waza-ari: I think the power cut may have dmaged your drive in some way | 15:48 |
| Roasted_ | DasEi, our current setup I believe arranges the APs by MAC address, and just uses DHCP to them. This setup with Zentyal looks to be the opposite, where it manages by IP, and MAC ID isnt anywhere to be found. | 15:48 |
| ikonia | sambagirlx: it can't be fixed if you don't report it | 15:48 |
| ActionParsnip | sambagirlx: its fixable though, did you use the link to get fixed? | 15:48 |
| ikonia | sambagirlx: either report it - or stop referencing it | 15:48 |
| sambagirlx | i see it i'll report it i think i should it is rather a problem. | 15:48 |
| waza-ari | ActionParsnip: okay, then i first will try to safe as much data as possible on my external device | 15:48 |
| joshb | ActionParsnip: im installing ghecko_media player.. | 15:48 |
| ActionParsnip | waza-ari: wy do you not have a backup? | 15:48 |
| Bridge| | anyone know why my nis client on ubuntu (meerkat) keep giving this error: dpkg: version 'nis_2.17-18' bad syntax: invalid character in version number. (this was the version meerkat decided to download from the repositioy, so i dont see why it would be wrong version).... sorry i'm kinda lost here and we've been working on this for a while now with no sucess | 15:49 |
| === CripperZ-v6 is now known as CripperZ | ||
| sambagirlx | thanks brb | 15:49 |
| waza-ari | ActionParsnip: no, not of all files.. | 15:49 |
| ActionParsnip | waza-ari: the power outage could have fried the IDE, then where is your data? | 15:49 |
| DasEi | Roasted_: I recently tried in virtual box, so no "productional" experience, but dhcp on linux works as static does, If your machines often change, use dhcp, else static is one setup, and then less trouble with things like arp going bad | 15:49 |
| ikonia | Bridge|: is/was NIS working on this machine at all | 15:49 |
| ikonia | !info nis | 15:49 |
| ubottu | nis (source: nis): clients and daemons for the Network Information Service (NIS). In component universe, is extra. Version 3.17-31 (maverick), package size 191 kB, installed size 796 kB | 15:49 |
| ActionParsnip | Bridge|: redownload the file | 15:49 |
| === Cain` is now known as Cain | ||
| Bridge| | yea it tries to bind to ypserv then gives that error after a few mins | 15:49 |
| sambagirlx | what is wierd is that the solution exists but it is still occuring. so that is a bug that needs to be reported again i guess. | 15:49 |
| ikonia | sambagirlx: if it's reported, it doesn't need reporting again | 15:50 |
| ikonia | sambagirlx: if it's not reported, it needs reporting | 15:50 |
| ActionParsnip | sambagirlx: it also happens when people mess with default apps and such | 15:50 |
| waza-ari | ActionParsnip: i can mount it in rescuesystem... | 15:50 |
| Roasted_ | DasEi, well my issue isn't really about what to use between dhcp and static. I'm just trying to understand if dhcp is even possible, because in the zentyal interface I'm just not seeing how it's possible. The only other curve ball is if we roll this out, then what? I'm trying to get a plan on how I can arrange all of our access points to connect to THIS server w/ static IPs as opposed to the Windows one without grabbing htem all out of the ceiling. | 15:50 |
| Bridge| | it looks asthough nis client works, but after failed bind attemp I get the error talking about the version | 15:50 |
| sambagirlx | so the issue is already reported then right actionparsnip? | 15:50 |
| ActionParsnip | sambagirlx: how can you have a bug for human error??? | 15:50 |
| ikonia | Bridge|: is the bind failure intermitent or all the time | 15:51 |
| robert__ | thank everyone who help me still waitin to see if my samba work but i can access my ftp from my windows 7 so i was happy about that lol | 15:51 |
| Bridge| | all the time | 15:51 |
| ActionParsnip | sambagirlx: is it a bug if some user delets all the files in /boot and the system no longer works after a cold boot, no its not | 15:51 |
| sambagirlx | >:o | 15:51 |
| ActionParsnip | sambagirlx: if a package install did it by accident, then yes there is a bug | 15:52 |
| Bridge| | ikonia: we have ypserv running on a centOS box listening, and nis client on ubuntu | 15:52 |
| sambagirlx | ok ok ok don't beat me down. geez. | 15:52 |
| DasEi | Roasted_: you define a subnet for the internal ip's and set your clients accordingly | 15:52 |
| ikonia | Bridge|: ok, but does the yp bind on the ubuntu box ever work or does it fail all the time | 15:52 |
| sambagirlx | i still didnt do anything to cause this situation as far as i recall. | 15:52 |
| ActionParsnip | waza-ari: then you may need to use foremost to attempt to rescue the data from an unmounted partition. you will need a suitably sized partition mounted writable to spit the found data onto.I suggest you review your backup regime | 15:52 |
| Roasted_ | DasEi, did you just use freeradius or did you use zentyal in particular? | 15:52 |
| Bridge| | ikonia: all the time | 15:52 |
| ActionParsnip | sambagirlx: then check the bug doesn't already exist and if it doesn't, create it | 15:53 |
| ikonia | Bridge|: so it's never worked ? | 15:53 |
| Bridge| | ikonia:: no | 15:53 |
| ActionParsnip | sambagirlx: just explaining what constitutes a bug :) | 15:53 |
| ikonia | Bridge|: does the version match with this | 15:53 |
| ikonia | !info nis | Bridge| | 15:53 |
| ubottu | Bridge|: nis (source: nis): clients and daemons for the Network Information Service (NIS). In component universe, is extra. Version 3.17-31 (maverick), package size 191 kB, installed size 796 kB | 15:53 |
| waza-ari | ActionParsnip: im currently simply using rsync to copy the data from internal harddisk to external usb disk. i hope to get the important data.. | 15:53 |
| sambagirlx | i know who a bug is :) | 15:53 |
| DasEi | Roasted_: I had a look in zentyal recently, amongst other server slutions, but these things are similar in different distros | 15:54 |
| waza-ari | and, be sure, i will review backup strategy... | 15:54 |
| Bridge| | ikonia: it saays 3.17-18 | 15:54 |
| sambagirlx | i will ask Seveas about it. | 15:54 |
| trinikrono_ | sambagirlx: maybe you can join the bugsquad | 15:54 |
| Roasted_ | DasEi, I see. Little off topic to what I asked but based on what server solutions you found similar to Zentyal, what others did you find? I went with Zentyal because they seemed to have good support, plus when they were formerly ebox I know the forums thought highly of them as a whole. What others did you find worth mentioning? | 15:54 |
| ikonia | Bridge|: ok, maybe worth doing an apt-get update, then seeing if apt-cache search nis shows the upgraded version ? | 15:54 |
| waza-ari | but i have to go offline for now, since battery will be down again in a few minutes, so i have to use the ac-adapter of this machine... | 15:55 |
| sambagirlx | i dont have any bugs i am clean as as whistle. | 15:55 |
| waza-ari | i will come back when i rescued the data i could.. | 15:55 |
| DasEi | Roasted_: I'll pm you | 15:55 |
| sambagirlx | brb let me try their solution to fix this | 15:55 |
| Bridge| | ikonia: k i'll try this | 15:55 |
| sambagirlx | ok this was what occured inode/directory=vlc.desktop; | 15:56 |
| sambagirlx | still unsure how the association occured. | 15:56 |
| ajah | is it possbile to make new partion from the unused space of existing partition | 15:57 |
| bazhang | ajah, unallocated space? | 15:57 |
| trinikrono_ | ajah: i did it last night so yes | 15:57 |
| ajah | bazhang, yes | 15:57 |
| bazhang | ajah, see what trinikrono_ said | 15:57 |
| ajah | trinikrono_, how | 15:58 |
| ActionParsnip | ajah: you can resize partitions to make a new one | 15:58 |
| sacarlson | ajah: I guess you can resize your partition to create another partition with gparted | 15:58 |
| trinikrono_ | it takes really long and dont do it too close ajah | 15:58 |
| undecim | Where can I get a list of packages that are on the default Maverick install? | 15:59 |
| ajah | i`ve got 52 gb ntfs drive and 15gb unused i want to to turn this 15 gb in new partition | 15:59 |
| undecim | ajah: So the 15GB isn't currently allocated to a partition? | 15:59 |
| sambagirlx | inode/directory=vlc.desktop; | 15:59 |
| sacarlson | undecim: try dpkg --get-selections > installed-software | 16:00 |
| ajah | undecim, it is located on partition | 16:00 |
| sambagirlx | ajah use gparted and format it | 16:00 |
| trinikrono_ | ajah: i would make it 12gb :D you never know when you might need it | 16:00 |
| undecim | sacarlson: Well, that would work if I were running a fresh install... I don't have access to one at the moment | 16:00 |
| undecim | ajah: You will need to boot a LiveCD and use GParted | 16:00 |
| trinikrono_ | you can run sudo apt-get install gparted | 16:01 |
| DasEi | !info zenytal | 16:01 |
| ubottu | Package zenytal does not exist in maverick | 16:01 |
| undecim | ajah: Though it's recommended that you make a backup of your important data first. | 16:01 |
| ActionParsnip | undecim: could boot to an ubuntu install CD and run sacarlson's command there. running it on your current system shows the packages yuo have installed NOW, not the default ones | 16:01 |
| sacarlson | undecim: install a fresh one in a virtualbox to create a list to compare | 16:01 |
| ActionParsnip | sacarlson: no need to install, just boot the livecd | 16:01 |
| undecim | ActionParsnip: I know, but that would give me a list of the packages on the CD, which includes stuff not on the default install | 16:01 |
| ajah | when i click ot create partition table it says this will erase all data on entire disk | 16:01 |
| ajah | but i don`t want that | 16:01 |
| ajah | or it is inevitable | 16:02 |
| undecim | ajah: Don't create a new partition table | 16:02 |
| sambagirlx | ajah use gparted | 16:02 |
| ajah | i use gparted | 16:02 |
| sacarlson | ActionParsnip: I guess that would work | 16:02 |
| undecim | ajah: You need to resize the partition with the 15GB free | 16:02 |
| undecim | ajah: Then you have the free space to make a new partition | 16:02 |
| trinikrono_ | ajah: make sure to backup | 16:02 |
| robert__ | how do i bridge my newtwork connection | 16:03 |
| undecim | sacarlson: Yeah, I know, but that seemed a little overkill... I was hoping there is a page I can look at or a file on the LiveCD or something like that. | 16:03 |
| feyd | how can I have MPD save its playback position / playlist when it shuts down? | 16:03 |
| undecim | !ics | robert__ | 16:03 |
| ubottu | robert__: If you want to share the internet connection of your Ubuntu machine with other machines in the network see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/InternetConnectionSharing - You may also use !firestarter: http://www.fs-security.com/docs/connection-sharing.php | 16:03 |
| sacarlson | undecim: ya something that takes about 30 secounds way over kill | 16:03 |
| ajah | from partition menu doesnt display me the resize option | 16:04 |
| Bridge| | ikonia: yea i updated apt-get check the version of nis client which is 3.17-31, still getting same error when trying to bind to ypserv on the centOS box | 16:04 |
| undecim | sacarlson: I want to know what computer you have that can install Ubuntu in VBox in 30 seconds... | 16:04 |
| sacarlson | undecim: you must have missed ActionParsnip suggested just boot a live cd and compare the list of that | 16:05 |
| undecim | sacarlson: you missed my response to that message | 16:05 |
| ikonia | Bridge|: just having a little read on version compatabilities | 16:05 |
| Bridge| | k | 16:05 |
| sacarlson | undecim: I think it must be a subset of what's installed, I"m not sure I never checked it | 16:06 |
| Bridge| | ikonia: ypserv version 2.19 (incase u need it) | 16:06 |
| sambagirlx | actionparsnips that thing worked thanks | 16:06 |
| undecim | sacarlson: It is not a subset, because the default install does not include ubiquity (the Ubuntu installer) | 16:06 |
| ActionParsnip | sambagirlx: simples :) | 16:06 |
| ikonia | Bridge|: thank you | 16:07 |
| MichaelDobrovits | how to get libv4l-dev 32bit for ubuntu 9.1 64bit to install wine | 16:07 |

| EnrgySmth | hi | 16:31 |
| Datz | hi, I just set a static address for eth0 through the network manager app. ifconfig shows the old local address. How do I force the new one? | 16:32 |
| ubuntu | holllow | 16:33 |
| ubuntu | yoyo | 16:33 |
| ubuntu | ;d | 16:33 |
| BluesKaj | Datz, did you set the staic address in /etc/network/interfaces or network manager ? | 16:33 |
| ubuntu | Hi | 16:33 |
| sacarlson | Datz: network manager should work but if that fails you can disable network manager and use ifconfig to change ip | 16:33 |
| EnrgySmth | Datz : try ifdown eth0 then ifup eth0 ? | 16:33 |
| Datz | BluesKaj: network manager | 16:33 |
| Datz | EnrgySmth: I'll try that | 16:33 |
| ubuntu | how are u? | 16:34 |
| BluesKaj | then make sure you turn off dhcp , Datz | 16:34 |
| ubuntu | what`s up!!!!??? | 16:34 |
| jetboyjetgirl | ok, problem solved | 16:35 |
| ubuntu | great;d | 16:35 |
| Bridge| | ikonia: okay, thank you for trying :-) (sorry for late response had to run down for a little, my son was crying non stop) | 16:36 |
| jetboyjetgirl | I guess i can't be "two-timing" using windows and ubuntu for my fuze lol :P | 16:36 |
| BluesKaj | Datz, the best way to maintain a static IP on a network is to delete network manager and let network/interfaces run the configuration , as done here, http://www.cyberciti.biz/tips/howto-ubuntu-linux-convert-dhcp-network-configuration-to-static-ip-configuration.html | 16:36 |

| LinuxNoob | i tried, the laptop has no drivers | 17:03 |
| ikonia | LinuxNoob: use what ever operating system you feel meets your needs best | 17:03 |
| dmar198 | okay thx | 17:03 |
| EnrgySmth | LinuxNoob... you dont really need to have windows7 installed to have ubuntu installed... | 17:03 |
| dmar198 | goodbye! | 17:03 |
| ikonia | LinuxNoob: the install CD will deal with that for Linux | 17:03 |
| LinuxNoob | i tried.. | 17:03 |
| codemagician | LinuxNoob, just download the desktop edition and make USB pen drive | 17:03 |
| maco | LinuxNoob: having windows installed has no effect on whether linux has drivers available | 17:03 |
| LinuxNoob | the laptop requires the drivers to function | 17:03 |
| LinuxNoob | the mobo was designed for win7 | 17:03 |
| ikonia | LinuxNoob: what happens whewn you boot the install CD | 17:03 |
| Starminn | LinuxNoob, Was your computer hooked up to the Internet too? Linux searches for drivers independent of Window. | 17:04 |
| ikonia | LinuxNoob: no, it doesn't | 17:04 |
| LinuxNoob | i already called the asus guy | 17:04 |
| ikonia | LinuxNoob: what happens when you boot the install CD | 17:04 |
| LinuxNoob | which one? | 17:04 |
| LinuxNoob | linux? | 17:04 |
| ikonia | LinuxNoob: the ubuntu Install CD | 17:04 |
| LinuxNoob | i downloaded it to a usb, with this | 17:04 |
| maco | LinuxNoob: linux is a separate operating system. it does not use windows to get drivers. if linux does not have drivers for your hardware, then having windows installed won't change that | 17:04 |
| codemagician | LinuxNoob, if you boot into the linux installer you wont even be using win7 | 17:04 |
| LinuxNoob | o_o | 17:04 |
| codemagician | LinuxNoob, so the issue of drivers is irrelavent | 17:04 |
| ikonia | LinuxNoob: what happens when you boot the install CD | 17:04 |
| LinuxNoob | okay guys enlighten me | 17:05 |
| LinuxNoob | i dont even need win7 | 17:05 |
| ikonia | LinuxNoob: what happens when you boot the install CD | 17:05 |
| LinuxNoob | alright | 17:05 |
| ikonia | LinuxNoob: respond to my question | 17:05 |
| LinuxNoob | ubuntu startup | 17:05 |
| Starminn | LinuxNoob, You said you were using WUBI. Don't use WUBI. | 17:05 |
| LinuxNoob | i get the purple screen that has the 5 dots like its loading | 17:05 |
| Starminn | Just boot from the install CD. | 17:05 |
| codemagician | He's ready to take the RED pill! | 17:05 |
| LinuxNoob | then purple and white checkered screen | 17:05 |
| LinuxNoob | nothing else, waited an hour to see if it was loading | 17:05 |
| codemagician | LinuxNoob, i have probs with CD too | 17:05 |
| LinuxNoob | i used a usb | 17:06 |
| codemagician | LinuxNoob, this is why I suggest using the USB pen | 17:06 |
| ikonia | LinuxNoob: use the ubuntu alternative CD to install, | 17:06 |
| sandyd | LinuxNoob: use nomodeset | 17:06 |
| ikonia | LinuxNoob: that will resovle your graphical problems | 17:06 |
| LinuxNoob | path to finding this please :) | 17:06 |

| EnrgySmth | LinuxNoob : http://www.ubuntugeek.com/how-to-fix-ubuntu-10-04-lts-lucid-blank-screen-at-startup.html | 17:07 |
| ikonia | LinuxNoob: http://mirror01.th.ifl.net/releases//maverick/ubuntu-10.10-alternate-i386.iso | 17:07 |
| ikonia | LinuxNoob: use that install image, and that should resolve your issues | 17:08 |
| GHH | Who know about editing menu? | 17:08 |
| LinuxNoob | alright, what exactly do i do with that iso | 17:08 |
| ikonia | LinuxNoob: you burn it to a CD, then boot from that CD | 17:08 |
| codemagician | is there a way to get back to the netbook remix v9 style instead of the new 10.10 remix left side crazy bar? | 17:08 |
| LinuxNoob | so i can just open the cd, drop the iso in there, burn and put in my other laptop? | 17:09 |
| LinuxNoob | i also have a usb pen, if that would be better | 17:09 |
| LinuxNoob | 8gb | 17:09 |
| ikonia | LinuxNoob: burn the image to a CD and boot from it | 17:09 |
| LinuxNoob | kk | 17:09 |
| codemagician | LinuxNoob, not sure the USB installer handles that .iso | 17:09 |
| LinuxNoob | gotcha | 17:09 |
| EnrgySmth | LinuxNoob - cannot just copy the file to the CD - needs to burn it "from image file" or whatever your burning program states | 17:10 |
| youra | LinuxNoob burn it as an IMAGE not as date | 17:10 |
| youra | data+ | 17:10 |
| EnrgySmth | otherwise it will not be bootable | 17:10 |
| LinuxNoob | kk | 17:10 |
| youra | indeed :D | 17:10 |
| codemagician | LinuxNoob, check on the pull-down list of the USB Installer app to see if it support creating USB pen from that particular .iso | 17:10 |
| lrvick | Hi all I have an issue accessing my esata drive cluster within ubuntu 10.10. The bios sees it fine and reports the correct size etc however within ubuntu i get this: http://pae.st/X2DJ/ | 17:10 |

| lrvick | buffer move 23 | 17:11 |
| codemagician | ikonia, he said he used USB last time | 17:11 |
| lrvick | doh | 17:11 |
| ikonia | codemagician: he's not using it this time | 17:11 |
| EnrgySmth | LinuxNoob - do you have a CD burner in the computer you are on? | 17:11 |
| LinuxNoob | i put in a blank cd, asks me to burn dvd data, burn files to dsic, or burn a dvd video disc | 17:11 |
| codemagician | ikonia, any particular reason? | 17:11 |
| robertcmk7 | LinuxNoob: you have to use an imageburner, like ISO Image Burner on Windows. | 17:11 |
| EnrgySmth | What program is it? | 17:12 |
| ikonia | codemagician: simple | 17:12 |
| Bridge| | hehe, didn't even notice it at first, but i'm laying on the brick from laptops power cord and it feels like a heatingpad for my hurt back, :-) | 17:12 |
| EnrgySmth | Bridge: LOL | 17:12 |

| EnrgySmth | hidnshadows: know anything about grub and software raid in ubuntu? :) | 17:14 |
| hidnshadows | EnrgySmth, unfortunately not, sorry | 17:14 |
| ikonia | EnrgySmth: what's the issue ? | 17:14 |
| Bridge| | goltoof: better then laptop batter exploded and liquid flames squirting out on my unmentionables | 17:14 |
| DasEi | EnrgySmth: details ? | 17:14 |

| hidnshadows | ikonia I'm not new to the policies here, some users that need help wait, I'm terribly sorry if I offended you | 17:16 |
| EnrgySmth | I am switching distros - have been a fedora 64bit user forever... am making the leap to Ubuntu finally after watching for a long time. Am curious if I am going to have any problems setting up a seperate /boot partition under software raid1? | 17:16 |
| thales | not raid but great "backup" command rsync; enter man rsycn for info; never got raid working with adaptec/ "silicon image" chipset | 17:16 |
| ikonia | hidnshadows: not offended me | 17:16 |
| Datz | Hi, the "Desktop" folder in home/ doesn't appear to be a sym link. Can I delete it, or will that cause all sort of trouble? | 17:16 |
| EnrgySmth | will grub recognize software raid1? | 17:16 |
| ikonia | EnrgySmth: none at all | 17:16 |
| clavin12 | My wireless adapter is not listed as an interface, and ndiswrapper tells me it cannot see if hardware is present. I cannot connect through any other means than wireless. | 17:16 |
| ikonia | EnrgySmth: it will be fine | 17:16 |
| hidnshadows | clavin12, is the device enabled under BIOS | 17:16 |
| DasEi | EnrgySmth: works with seperate and boot, and grub handles raid fine | 17:16 |
| ActionParsnip | Datz: you can symlink it to another folder if you wish, the OS will simply see a folder | 17:16 |
| LinuxNoob | whats good software to download the ubuntu.iso to a cd? | 17:16 |
| EnrgySmth | Excellent, thanks guys | 17:16 |

| Dazzled | hello, I just installed Ubuntu 10.10 and found a rather dull language error in the installer | 17:17 |
| DasEi | EnrgySmth: for advanced install options, use the alternate installer, it gives you more fine grained options | 17:17 |
| ActionParsnip | LinuxNoob: its just a file, remember to MD5 test it before you use it | 17:17 |
| erUSUL | LinuxNoob: in windows i recommend infrarecorder | 17:17 |
| hidnshadows | clavin12, try hitting the F_ key on the first splash screen on bootup | 17:18 |
| Dazzled | is there a place I can suggest amenments? | 17:18 |

| LinuxNoob | im putting it on a labtop with nothing on it, blank hdd | 17:18 |
| robertcmk7 | ImgBurn is good utility too. | 17:18 |
| Starminn | LinuxNoob, to download the file just downlod it like anything else. Then get a copy of InfraRecorder (could never get the other one to work right) and follow the step-by-step instructions. | 17:18 |
| clavin12 | hidnshadows: I know how to acces the bios. I will look into it. | 17:18 |
| ActionParsnip | Dazzled: most of the documentation is wiki based so you should be able to create an account and ammend it | 17:18 |
| LinuxNoob | gotcha, i gotta go guys, thanks very much | 17:18 |
| ActionParsnip | LinuxNoob: makes life easier if it is ;) | 17:18 |
| Starminn | LinuxNoob you don't need anything on it. That's the point. =) "Fresh install." | 17:18 |
| EnrgySmth | DasEi - yeah thanks - will be installing LVM volumes on top of raided partitions on the same drives - seperating for performance and flexibility | 17:18 |
| hidnshadows | clavin12 alright, good luck | 17:18 |

| DasEi | EnrgySmth: raid on the same drive or talking of lvm on the same array (aka mdX) ? | 17:19 |
| clavin12 | hidnshadows: there is no setting related to usb adapters in the bios. | 17:20 |

| thales | question on nautilus: Nautilus file manager does not display/recognize multiple files generated as "backups" using 'rsync -a' has anyone encountered this? | 17:20 |
| Starminn | LinuxNoob, it is step number 2 on the link I gave you. I did only that and it worked shortly thereafter. | 17:20 |
| markoso | resize windows partition | 17:20 |
| EnrgySmth | DasEi - more like this... http://www.linuxconfig.org/choosing-the-right-linux-file-system-layout-using-a-top-bottom-process | 17:20 |
| centurion | ciao | 17:21 |
| EnrgySmth | 2 drive performance scenario, but slightly less segregated, and using ext4 mostly... | 17:21 |
| Starminn | markoso, I'd use manual if you know what you're doing but if not just use the slider. Typically the default is suitable. | 17:22 |
| LinuxNoob | how many partitions should i put on my hdd after i get linux installed? | 17:22 |
| EnrgySmth | LinuxNoob - just let it autoconfig dude | 17:22 |
| LinuxNoob | nvm, ill ask all these questions when i get to it lol, ill be back later guys, ty so much guys | 17:22 |
| ActionParsnip | LinuxNoob: I recommend 3, 10Gb for / formatted Ext4, 1xRAM for swap, the rest for /home formatted Ext4 | 17:22 |
| DasEi | EnrgySmth: so you will mirror on two drives, using ext4 for / and ext3 or 2 for /boot, that all can be set up at install without a problem | 17:22 |
| Starminn | LinuxNoob, just let it automatically set it up for you. | 17:23 |
| ikonia | EnrgySmth: you can use ext4 for /boot without an issue | 17:23 |
| markoso | ubuntu 10.10 has no slider | 17:23 |
| EnrgySmth | DasEi - that is excellent to hear, thank you! | 17:23 |
| Starminn | markoso, Is it a fresh install or install alongside something else? | 17:23 |
| markoso | installing ubuntu windows is alreay installed | 17:24 |
| Tjololo12 | If someone tells me he wants me to backup /alt, does he mean /etc/alternatives? Or should I try to have him clarify, because there is no /alt directory? | 17:24 |
| ikonia | Tjololo12: clarify | 17:24 |
| zykes- | anyone know of a network install type iso for ubuntu ? | 17:24 |

| civixier | if I have made a sudo -s in a terminal, how can I reverse it without closing it and open a new one? :) | 17:24 |
| bazhang | zykes-, minimal iso? | 17:24 |
| DasEi | civixier: exit | 17:24 |
| bazhang | !minimal | zykes- | 17:24 |
| ubottu | zykes-: The Minimal CD image is very small in size, and it downloads most packages from the Internet during installation, allowing you to select only those you want (the installer is like the one on the !Alternate CD). See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/MinimalCD | 17:24 |
| zykes- | bazhang: something like it | 17:25 |
| Starminn | markoso, I am using Ubuntu 10.10 and there is a slider. In the wizard hit, "Install alongside" and you'll have a little GUI there. Drag-and-drop the Ubuntu logo to however big you want it. | 17:25 |
| EnrgySmth | ikonia - thank you! | 17:25 |
| civixier | DasEi ah, thanks :) | 17:25 |
| bazhang | zykes-, about 20mb iso iirc | 17:25 |
| markoso | ok star | 17:25 |
| ne2k | is there some utility that will keep a log of which window has focus and for how long, and analyse it to give percentages per day, for example? | 17:25 |
| DasEi | civixier: or ctrl-d | 17:25 |

| Kevin147 | On my laptop I have Ubuntu installed, and I have it partitioned where / has its own space, and /home has its own place. Is there anyway that I can make another partition to /home so I can install Windows 7 without loosing anything? | 17:27 |
| markoso | after slide do i hit installl now | 17:27 |
| ikonia | EnrgySmth: I wouldn't bother, ext works just as fine | 17:27 |
| EnrgySmth | ikonia - more of an experiment than anything... :) | 17:27 |
| GHH | Who know about editing menu? | 17:28 |
| === willians_ is now known as carpeted | ||
| Starminn | markoso, Yep. If everything's how you want it then hit Install Now and just keep doing whatever it asks. Pretty straight-forward from there. | 17:28 |

| AbhijiT | lewix, if want gui tool then install sysinfio | 17:32 |
| Starminn | markoso, I'm not that experienced in all this but I'm searching for something similar. I know that problem is somewhat common in Win7. | 17:33 |
| DasEi | lewix: install gnome-devicemanager, or hwinfo (most detailed) | 17:33 |
| AbhijiT | sysinfo | 17:33 |

| Starminn | markoso, I remember reading something a few days ago about this. Vista and Win7 are different in how you install them. This was for Win7 but I believe it may apply to Vista as well. You apparently have to partition unallocated space while in Windows, THEN install Ubuntu (maual) into that unallocated space. | 17:34 |

| Kevin147 | gobbe: nope, I only made it 10GB. And I've used 5GB already..wouldn't be enough room | 17:34 |

| gobbe | Kevin147: well, you could look for example http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=84235 | 17:37 |
| lewix | =) | 17:37 |
| Starminn | markoso, Then once you do that (although if you can't boot into Windows, not sure how that'll work. Again, not very experienced in this) you choose "manually specify partitions" and what you'll need to do (in your case) when installing Ubuntu is to make a 300GB partition mounted at "/" and make a partition called "swap" that is approximately equivalent to your RAM. | 17:37 |
| ncfi1013 | ok tell me the proper channel i have to go to | 17:37 |

| markoso | we installed win vista and then ubuntu but when boot it goes straight to ubunut | 17:38 |
| Starminn | markoso, You could also try something like this: http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-319814.html since they're already installed. | 17:38 |
| DasEi | klys4: what do want to run/install ? | 17:38 |
| Starminn | markoso, Some people apparently have had to add Vista to the GRUB menu manually. | 17:39 |
| KM0201 | markoso: ok, if it did that then you either 1. erased vista or 2. the install didn't pick up vista for some reason. | 17:39 |
| maco | markoso: hold shift during boot | 17:39 |
| DasEi | markoso: open a terminal .. | 17:39 |

| Starminn | maco: Isn't Linux copyleft? | 17:41 |
| jon_athon | Ok... | 17:41 |
| KM0201 | markoso: did you just use the old partitions.. from the first install, or what? | 17:41 |
| jon_athon | what the... | 17:41 |
| maco | Starminn: copyleft is a term for something is copyrighted but has a very permissive license | 17:41 |
| dmar198 | hey, I'm trying to run a .bat file, but when I double-click on it it merely opens gedit it and shows me the code | 17:41 |
| dmar198 | how do I get it to "run" the bat? | 17:41 |
| jon_athon | I can save .doc files in openoffice.org, but I can't open them. I just uninstalled and re-installed oo.org writer | 17:41 |
| jon_athon | still no love | 17:41 |
| markoso | we formated the hdd | 17:41 |
| maco | Starminn: it is sort of untested whether it is even *possible* (ie, will the courts acknowledge it) to release something directly into public domain | 17:42 |
| koelkast | can ubuntu be used with 2000 laptops and servers that provinding them? haha | 17:42 |
| markoso | then did fresh vista install | 17:42 |
| Starminn | maco: Ah, so it's basically just slang for open-source, eh? lol | 17:42 |
| markoso | now ubuntu | 17:42 |
| Lichte | I've setup pptp in server 10.04 and it's working, but I can't access any of the samba shares..........any ideas ??? | 17:42 |
| jon_athon | This is my homework I'm doing, too...so i need a fix, or at least a bandaid | 17:42 |
| KM0201 | jon_athon: seems you're doing something wrong.. OO.org should read .doc just fine | 17:42 |
| maco | Starminn: which is slang for "free software," right? ;-) | 17:42 |
| DasEi | dmar198: bat is a batch for windows, can try with wine, better tell what was the original need ? | 17:42 |
| sambagirlx | wow this is amazing. i was able to get the whole suicidal tendencies, todd rundgren (utopia), frank zappa, and YES discography and i owe it all to ubuntu :). bbl going to go get new headphones | 17:42 |

| mcloy | is it possible to have video chat or voice chat with one and other but just by using a website. i mean can such a web be made? | 17:42 |

| KM0201 | jon_athon: what version of ubuntu and open office are you using? | 17:42 |
| ikonia | sambagirlx: that is not appropriate in here | 17:42 |
| dmar198 | DasEI :: I realize my mistake now, I'll use it on Windows | 17:42 |

| DasEi | np | 17:43 |
| jon_athon | KM0201, 10.04LTS and 3.2 | 17:43 |
| maco | jon_athon: id work on it in .odt format in the meantime then just swap it to .doc to send to your teacher, in that case | 17:43 |
| Starminn | maco: Not quite as I understand it (not everything free needs to be open) but yeah lol | 17:43 |
| ikonia | sambagirlx: this channel is for ubuntu support only, do not raise topics like that in here | 17:43 |
| KM0201 | hmm | 17:43 |

| KM0201 | jon_athon: i find it strange you're having this issue... i personally doubt libreoffice will fix it, but we'll see i guess | 17:48 |

| saikatdebnath | hii | 17:51 |
| DasEi | battlehands: use a live cd | 17:51 |
| gobbe | battlehands: you cannot unmount partition that is in use, boot with live cd | 17:51 |
| DasEi | battlehands: mounted parti's can't be altered | 17:51 |
| Aikar | battlehands: let windows do the formatting | 17:51 |
| battlehands | DasEi, what is a live cd? | 17:51 |
| soreau | battlehands: If you want to install windows, use the windows disc and/or ask in #windows | 17:51 |
| rami1983 | how can i check out if some connected to my wireless? | 17:51 |
| maco | battlehands: the thing you likely used to install ubuntu | 17:51 |
| DasEi | battlehands: os starting from a boot cd, so hd has no ned to be mounted | 17:52 |
| gobbe | rami1983: from your router | 17:52 |
| maco | battlehands: but shouldnt the windows installer format it for you? | 17:52 |
| DasEi | !live | battlehands | 17:52 |
| ubottu | battlehands: The Ubuntu Desktop CD is a "LiveCD" which can be run without altering existing files on your harddrive. Especially useful for testing your hardware's compatibility, it also includes an install option. | 17:52 |

| ActionParsnip | rami1983: access the router's web config page and find it | 17:52 |
| soreau | rami1983: What does this have to do with ubuntu exactly? | 17:53 |
| Aikar | battlehands: go to manage partitions first and delete all partitions | 17:53 |
| Aikar | so it all says unallocated | 17:53 |
| DasEi | battlehands: for dualbooting, first install win, then resize with ubuntu installer, ask again on how to get win into grub then | 17:53 |

| gobbe | rami1983: it's something that you need to read from manual of your router | 17:54 |

| mettao87 | Hi guys, I have a problem with a new installation of ubuntu 10.10. When I try to install the system doesn't see the HD, and ask to me for a driver. My HD is a WD caviar black 1tb 6gb/s: WD1002FAEX What can I do? thank you.. | 17:59 |
| thehumanerror | Got a strange problem - everytime I boot into Ubuntu 10.10, my Bluetooth name has reset to "Broadcom ModelNUmber3914" adn not the name | 17:59 |
| ActionParsnip | ubuser: grep -i memtotal /proc/meminfo will show how much ram you have | 17:59 |
| rami1983 | soreau: i have wpa and wpa2 persona | 17:59 |
| swazzy | goo is not currently not installed | 17:59 |
| jon_athon | damn, openoffice.org does not uninstall well | 17:59 |
| rami1983 | sorry | 17:59 |
| thehumanerror | any ideas? Quite tricky to search for on the Web | 17:59 |
| ActionParsnip | mettao87: the drive is moot, its the controller you are having issue with | 17:59 |
| Nixolas1 | heh | 17:59 |
| Nixolas1 | free tech support eh? | 18:00 |
| ActionParsnip | jon_athon: sudo apt-get --purge remove openoffice.org* | 18:00 |
| soreau | rami1983: You can create nearly unbreakable encryption by specifying wpa* and setting a pw that is not a dictionary word but consists of random numbers and letters | 18:00 |

| Tadej | hello, where is xorg.conf in 10.10? Where do I change device driver and monitor settings? | 18:00 |
| Thalius | mettao87: strange. Have you tried booting to the live cd? Just to see if you can find the disk from there? | 18:01 |
| soreau | Tadej: Depends on which graphics driver you are using | 18:01 |
| DasEi | klys4: stop pm'ing me ; http://wiki.sa-mp.com/wiki/Linux_Server explains, and you might look up at your webpage for a later version | 18:01 |
| thehumanerror | Tadej: there is no xorg.conf any more for most of the time, it should be automatically configured | 18:01 |
| ActionParsnip | Tadej: it doesn't ship with one but if you make one, it will be obeyed. It goes in the same place it has for years | 18:01 |
| mettao87 | Thalius: not yet. I will try. | 18:02 |
| thehumanerror | Tadej: Your settings are in System -> Preferences -> Monitors | 18:02 |
| Tadej | I have SiS65x | 18:02 |
| DasEi | Tadej: by default there is no xo..conf, but can stell create and use it | 18:02 |
| soreau | thehumanerror: Its not most of the time, its when you are using proprietary drivers, you must have one | 18:02 |

| swazzy | what is goo for? | 18:02 |
| ubuser | ive decided 5.1 has to go | 18:03 |
| soreau | Tadej: Try sys>prefs>moinitors. If you really want an xorg.conf, just place one in /etc/X11 and X will use it | 18:03 |
| ActionParsnip | Tadej: if you run: lspci | grep -i vga you can search for giudes if you copy the output | 18:03 |
| soreau | ActionParsnip: Its not worth looking at.. its SiS | 18:03 |
| ActionParsnip | swazzy: its the start of a command, tab will then autocomplete the rest. i'm guessing you typed goo and pressed enter.... | 18:03 |
| DasEi | ubuser: it's counting cores, beginning from 0, so number one | 18:03 |
| ubuser | well, its 768 proc 128 ram | 18:03 |

| goltoof | what's smarter, stick with 10.04 LTS, or upgrade the system with not LTS versions when they come out? ie, am i missing anything super important by sticking with 10.04 for the next few years? | 18:37 |

| Cyberfusion | hey why would /etc/network/interfaces only contain the loopback? | 18:37 |
| maco | Cyberfusion: because network manager handles everything else | 18:38 |
| aeon-ltd | heh it was getting quiet in the last few months, without freenode spam | 18:38 |
| codemagician | how do I configure gnome to remove the top bar and place all the stuff on the bottom bar? | 18:38 |
| Cyberfusion | where does network manager "live"? | 18:38 |
| ActionParsnip | goltoof: I'd say sticking with LTS. They are supported for longer and if it works, why fix it | 18:38 |
| bj0rn | lol | 18:38 |
| maco | goltoof: you dont get new versions of software, just bugfix/security-patches for old ones if you stick to LTS | 18:38 |
| Thalius | Cyberfusion: Because you dont have a netwerkinterface configured? | 18:38 |
| gaeatano | ciao a tutti | 18:38 |

| bj0rn | ffs | 18:39 |
| ikonia | it should stop now, | 18:39 |
| rsh | its sch frustrating u try to avoid malwares and u get other big hedaches. It isn't worth the efforts. This channel has no ubuntu developer. only monitors. somebdy tell me doing it for 10 days now. whoever dessigned that junk bluez must have been napping. | 18:39 |

| marcules | I've left #freenode for that sort of thing | 18:39 |
| bj0rn | ikonia, ok ok, i'll let you respond to the spammers. | 18:39 |
| maco | rsh: the channel does have ubuntu developers in it... i'm one | 18:39 |
| TheMoonMaster | gross | 18:40 |
| kaie- | bluez does blow | 18:40 |
| goltoof | maco: what do you mean new versions of software? you mean software that's only compliant with new versions? i thought software can be updated anyway. | 18:40 |
| bj0rn | ikonia, has anyone else come in here mentioning that network-manager has been uninstalled during an update? | 18:40 |
| codemagician | how do I configure gnome to remove the top bar and place all the stuff on the bottom bar? | 18:40 |
| jrib | codemagician: right click on the panel, edit panel, drag away | 18:40 |
| ActionParsnip | codemagician: I told you, twice | 18:40 |
| aeon-ltd | codemagician: right click, unlock the panel then edit | 18:40 |
| bj0rn | ikonia, do you have a link to a how-to for re-enabling it from livecd? | 18:40 |
| maco | goltoof: the only updates you get in a stable version of ubuntu are bugfixes and security patches. if upstream release something new, you dont get it without moving to the next version of ubuntu | 18:40 |
| maco | goltoof: the exception is firefox | 18:40 |
| rsh | r u bluez develepor maco?? | 18:40 |
| ikonia | bj0rn: no idea | 18:41 |
| maco | rsh: no, i dont do gnome | 18:41 |
| codemagician | right click which panel the top of bottom? | 18:41 |
| jrib | codemagician: top | 18:41 |
| bj0rn | gah | 18:41 |
| ActionParsnip | codemagician: right click the item to move and unlock it, then drag it to the bottom panel. Or you can just right click the bottom panel and add the item. Right click the top panel and click delete panel | 18:41 |
| maco | bj0rn: you could connect without it, no need for a live cd... | 18:42 |
| maco | bj0rn: and then just sudo apt-get install network-manager-gnome | 18:42 |
| ActionParsnip | codemagician: you must have one panel but you can add or remove any items available to you | 18:42 |
| goltoof | maco: but i imagine there are ways to get new software to use new packages without changing the os? sorry, i'm still not clear on how all the packages, kernel modules, etc apply here. | 18:42 |
| ActionParsnip | goltoof: the OS will be the same, Ubuntu | 18:42 |
| goltoof | ActionParsnip: right, i mean os version | 18:42 |
| maco | goltoof: most software is in the repositories and they are mostly-frozen after the os is released | 18:42 |
| Cyberfusion | . | 18:43 |
| Cyberfusion | . | 18:43 |
| ActionParsnip | goltoof: the LTS release will still get updates when Maverick is dead | 18:43 |
| maco | goltoof: new versions arent added to the repos after release | 18:43 |
| g_o_o | codemagician, right click top panel -> then properities -> orientation -> bottom | 18:43 |
| maco | goltoof: you can get new versions from third parties, if you trust those third parties | 18:43 |
| goltoof | maco: o ic | 18:43 |
| |Long| | have anyone here run glftpd on ubuntu OS? | 18:43 |
| rsh | i don't come on this channel unless ive problm , plenty of forums i went thru. none have solved. No one seem to be intersted. My problem at ansers launchpad is still open. | 18:43 |
| bj0rn | maco, when i boot to the normal install, apt-get fails to find repositories. I booted to liveCD, and used "apt-get install --download-only --reinstall network-manager" ( as well as network-manager-gnome and, for some reason, gnome-bluetooth ) | 18:43 |
| goltoof | rsh, ask away | 18:44 |
| jrib | rsh: that's not a support question :/ Just ask your question | 18:44 |
| maco | goltoof: there is a developer-run "ubuntu backports" repository that contains new versions of software, but those packages dont get maintained in the usual way (ie, they dont get bugfixes and security updates) or much testing, just... "if it builds, ship it" | 18:44 |
| maco | bj0rn: you need to put the .deb thatss downloaded onto the hard disk then so you can get it when you go back to your system | 18:44 |
| bj0rn | maco, following that, i have a network-manager icon in my panel, but "Enable Network-manager" is faded, and "services --status-all" shows [?] network-manager | 18:44 |
| bj0rn | maco: done that | 18:44 |
| maco | bj0rn: if you have the icon, then its not uninstalled... | 18:45 |
| maco | bj0rn: check /etc/NetworkManager/nm-system-settings.conf | 18:45 |
| maco | bj0rn: are your devices managed or unmanaged according to that? | 18:45 |
| bj0rn | maco: it is re-installed.. after copying the .deb and using gdebi | 18:45 |
| bj0rn | maco: one sec, mounting the drive | 18:45 |
| codemagician | jrib, cool. is there a way to get the icons not to bunch and overlap.. like a grid type mode? | 18:46 |
| jrib | codemagician: there might be but I don't know how | 18:47 |
| bj0rn | maco, file says "ifdown / managed=false" | 18:47 |
| maco | bj0rn: make it true | 18:47 |
| bj0rn | maco, where / is a linebreak | 18:47 |
| bj0rn | kkl | 18:47 |
| bj0rn | maco: brb as [thor] if this works .. hehe thanks | 18:48 |
| WillWork4foo | hi all - is anyone here very familiar with plymouth boot screens on netbooks? For some reason, my netbook's screen goes blank twice during boot and I don't see the boot splash screen. It does boot and the system works, but I'm trying to get the ubuntu-sunrise plymouth screen working and it's refusing. It works fine on shutdown however | 18:49 |

| WillWork4foo | thanks ActionParsnip | 18:51 |

| craigfu | this isnt an ubuntu question perse, but does anyone have a recommendation for used 1u servers? Im am wanting to install ubuntu 10.10 server on it. Im just looking to get by for cheap | 18:52 |

| WillWork4foo | ActionParsnip, thanks very much | 18:52 |
| ikonia | craigfu: try ##hardware | 18:52 |
| craigfu | thanks ikonia | 18:53 |
| WillWork4foo | ActionParsnip, it looks like it's loading various gfx drivers during boot or something similar - screen keeps initialising two or three times :) | 18:53 |
| goltoof | craigfu: craigslist | 18:53 |
| WillWork4foo | I'll follow that guide. Much appreciated | 18:53 |

| ThatDudeButch | ikonia or gsp2009: make sense? | 19:01 |
| DasEi | taxon: headless = no gui | 19:01 |
| gsp2009 | ThatDudeButch: using wubi? | 19:01 |
| taxon | I read somewhere that tightvnc is rather old, e.g. the clipboard sharing doesn't work | 19:01 |
| lmh1 | Its is pussible to use unetbootin to make a bigger images? | 19:01 |
| DasEi | taxon: then ssh is your choice rather | 19:01 |
| ThatDudeButch | ive tried three ways | 19:01 |
| ThatDudeButch | regualr install cd | 19:01 |

| ThatDudeButch | ActionParsnip: I can I guess | 19:02 |

| taxon | tightvns is said to be rather slow with e.g. kde and to have some graphic glitches | 19:03 |
| undecim | lmh1: What do you mean by making bigger images? | 19:03 |
| undecim | lmh1: Like live USB drive with more stuff installed? | 19:03 |
| DasEi | taxon: vnc is like sitting on the remote pc , so you don't want to hare a headless server, but a regualar desktop, rdesktop , tightvnc from repos, ultravnc as third party or teamview, free for private use can do that | 19:03 |
| ActionParsnip | ThatDudeButch: then how did you know the image was complete or consistent? | 19:03 |
| ThatDudeButch | gsp, sending link to my phone now will test that work aroundand report back thanks | 19:03 |

| feyd | can someone tell me what a hard link is | 19:04 |
| ThatDudeButch | sup gsp2009 | 19:04 |
| gsp2009 | ThatDudeButch: also this one http://askubuntu.com/questions/15936/installing-ubuntu-10-10-windows-7-dual-boot-confusion | 19:04 |
| lmh1 | some like: http://cdimage.debian.org/debian-cd/5.0.8/amd64/jigdo-bd/ | 19:04 |
| undecim | feyd: It's when you have two files point to the same blocks of data on a hard drive | 19:04 |
| undecim | feyd: Different from a "soft" like which is more like a Windows shortcut. It tells any program using it to look at another file.... | 19:05 |
| taxon | DasEi: which kde / gnome package should I choose that doesn't depend on a lot of xservers? | 19:05 |
| lmh1 | <undecim>: How do you build iso? | 19:05 |
| undecim | feyd: Hard links actually share the same data | 19:05 |
| taxon | I only need a minimal kde / gnome | 19:05 |
| feyd | so if I wanted to have 2 folders mirror the same data (both on different drives), I wouldn't want to use a hard link, rsync would be a better option | 19:05 |
| ThatDudeButch | ActionParsnip: where are the md5s list | 19:05 |
| ThatDudeButch | you know off hand? | 19:05 |
| ActionParsnip | feyd: its like a symlink but makes a copy, if the file source changes the linked file will be instantly updated due to it being a link. It also takes space up, a softlink doesn't take any extra space | 19:05 |
| ActionParsnip | !hashes | ThatDudeButch | 19:05 |
| ubottu | ThatDudeButch: See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuHashes for the md5sums of Ubuntu discs. | 19:05 |
| jrib | goltoof: find -type d -exec stat -c '%h %n' '{}' + | sort -n | 19:05 |
| ThatDudeButch | ty sirs | 19:05 |
| undecim | lmh1: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/LiveCDCustomization | 19:05 |
| undecim | lmh1: If you make an ISO that is too big for a CD, you can use unetbootin to put it on a thumb drive. | 19:06 |
| feyd | ActionParsnip: so if I wanted to have 2 folders mirror the same data (both on different drives), I wouldn't want to use a hard link, rsync would be a better option | 19:06 |
| gsp2009 | ThatDudeButch: yw | 19:06 |
| goltoof | jrib: well.. i guess it's doing something.. lol | 19:06 |
| undecim | feyd: You can't hardlink folders, nor files on seperate partitions | 19:06 |
| lmh1 | can i change files from USB stick with unetbootin? | 19:07 |

| KM0201 | taxon: i've noticed it is kind of sluggish at times.. Teamviewer is better IMO... | 19:08 |
| ActionParsnip | ThatDudeButch: but you learned, so its all good | 19:08 |
| undecim | feyd: Rsync on a cron job sounds like it will do what you want. Just be careful... If you do, e.g. rsync with the --delete option (so that deleting from the source drive deletes from the secondary drive), it will wipe the secondary folder if the source drive fails to mount and the system boots anyways. | 19:08 |
| goltoof | jrib: not quite.. it does list in order of files contained.. not finding all the files though :/ | 19:09 |
| DasEi | taxon: the used desktop has less effect on it than has the used the compression protocoll and the bandwith | 19:09 |
| goltoof | jrib: ie, only showing some 2,000 or so | 19:09 |

| ThatDudeButch | hm taking forever to has | 19:10 |
| feyd | undecim: I'll be sure and test it before committing it, I'm not going to be deleting so much as just mirroring (a RAID would help there too, but rsync is simpler) | 19:10 |

| g_o_o | goltoof, if you're sure you want to remove them try sudo rm -rf | 19:24 |
| mbeierl | goltoof: from what I have read, the system volume information folder is also used as part of NTFS journal - which means that deleting it would corrupt the filesystem | 19:24 |
| goltoof | g_o_o: yes I did that.. | 19:24 |
| DasEi | taxon: err ? one g-card for each box.. so one driver per boox .. I don't understand you | 19:24 |
| mbeierl | goltoof: the answer to that is - it depends. If you want to read/write it from Windows, you should use a Windows filesystem. Linux can read Windows, but without loading additional software into your windows install, it cannot read linux filesystems | 19:25 |

| mbeierl | goltoof: umm. Sorry - suddenly out of my depth if this is mounted via fuse. I'm not that up to date with changes there. Linux uses a series of variant of the "ext" filesystem, with the oldest being ext2, and the most recent release being ext4. Microsoft has 2 common types: FAT and NTFS. Pretty much all versions of Windows now create NTFS by default. Most "pre-formatted" external hard drives will be NTFS out of the box | 19:32 |

| jrib | Chilaquiles: you want vnc, not ssh. And I'm guessing you installed the -server version of ubuntu and don't have Xorg installed at all. So you'll want to install that and some window manager too | 19:36 |

| mbeierl | goltoof: if it really is NTFS, I'm not sure that the concept of chmod works the same way. it might be representing the permissions of the directory as rwx as that is all that is possible to show. The concept of group and world are different in windows than under unix. | 19:47 |
| g_o_o | toks, what is the path to the header file? | 19:48 |
| toks | ActionParsnip: Codename: Maverick | 19:48 |
| mkf00 | who talked to me? | 19:48 |
| toks | g_o_o: /lib | 19:48 |
| kmg | i'm trying to use parted on an hfs+ filesystem, how do I get the start and end block? print just shows 200gb as the end block. | 19:48 |
| g_o_o | toks, the library or the source code | 19:48 |
| goltoof | mbeierl: http://paste.ubuntu.com/560710/ | 19:48 |
| toks | g_o_o: the library | 19:48 |
| ilon | KirkMcDonald: yeah, will take a peek if i cant get it to work properly, otherwise i'll just go with my regular drive, and do some tests on the SSD when i have the time | 19:49 |
| DasEi | goltoof: to clearify, ntfs won't take linux permissions at all | 19:49 |
| g_o_o | toks, but you're writing code which references this lib? | 19:49 |
| toks | g_o_o: where should i put the source? its the first time i do this | 19:49 |
| maco | mbeierl: hit the nail on the head | 19:49 |
| g_o_o | you can put the source where you want create a dir in your home directory | 19:49 |
| toks | g_o_o: thats correct | 19:49 |
| goltoof | DasEi: hmmm.. that explains a lot! even as fusemnt? | 19:49 |
| goltoof | err, fuseblk | 19:50 |
| g_o_o | then include header file as #include "path_to_file/simclist.h" | 19:50 |
| ActionParsnip | toks: http://packages.debian.org/sid/mipsel/sim/filelist shows the location in Debian, it may help | 19:50 |
| mbeierl | goltoof: oh. yes, you did mention I/O error. | 19:50 |
| DasEi | goltoof: yes, this is how data is organized on ext and other fs-systems, they aren't compatible regarding permissions | 19:50 |
| * lee demands his files back from goltoof | 19:51 | |
| mbeierl | goltoof: I'm suspecting something different now. Can you do a tail -20 /var/log/messages and tell me if there are any "errors" reported there? | 19:51 |
| DasEi | goltoof: permissions are part of the used fs, called metadata | 19:51 |
| goltoof | mbeierl: no errors, just new high speed USB device using ehci_hcd and address 114 | 19:52 |
| goltoof | mbeierl: reporting a diff address every second | 19:52 |
| mbeierl | goltoof: well. that is good. For a moment there I was thinking hard disk was... what? | 19:53 |
| goltoof | lol | 19:53 |
| toks | ActionParsnip: to make it easier is there a library for linked lists that comes with the distribution? | 19:53 |
| mbeierl | goltoof: really? That sounds like a bad cable | 19:53 |
| goltoof | mbeierl: well, it is usb 3.0... funky looking cable | 19:53 |
| mbeierl | goltoof: it is disconnecting and reconnecting at a mad pace. that's the I/O error. but ... why? | 19:53 |
| goltoof | http://paste.ubuntu.com/560711/ | 19:53 |
| mbeierl | goltoof: that is most interesting. I suspect that is the cause of the problems. The device keeps getting disconnected and you're losing the ability to manage it. | 19:54 |
| goltoof | mbeierl: i don't get i/o error in all dirs, just certain dirs | 19:54 |
| g_o_o | toks, the code for the SimCList package is available here http://mij.oltrelinux.com/devel/simclist/ | 19:56 |
| mbeierl | goltoof: I unfortunately need to drop for a bit, but I'd suggesting looking into the method of connection (ie: fuse driver vs. direct mount using ntfs) or googling "+ubuntu +make of drive +new high speed USB device using ehci_hcd" etc... to see if that sheds some more light | 19:56 |

| toks | g_o_o: i know thats what i am trying to install, i now found i package libsimplelist0, maybe it is what i want | 19:58 |

| gnuskool | Jordan_U: yup, im on the system now | 20:14 |
| Jordan_U | gnuskool: Assuming the drive you want to install to is sda, run "sudo grub-install /dev/sda" do *not* try to install to a partition like /dev/sda1. | 20:15 |
| Flare183 | gnuskool: If you used windows to resize it, it probably corrupted grub | 20:15 |
| gnuskool | using ubuntu, but i can see all other Oss in the boot menu, but did not try them | 20:15 |
| g_o_o | gnuskool, did you create a new partition? | 20:15 |
| gnuskool | Jordan_U: is that to install to MBR? | 20:16 |
| Jordan_U | gnuskool: Yes, "sudo grub-install /dev/sda" will install grub to the mbr. | 20:16 |

| gnuskool | Jordan_U: Thanks, installed, gonna restart | 20:19 |
| WillWork4foo | and the best I can get is that the system flashes the plymouth boot image for a brief moment at startup, then I get a completely black screen (no power at all to the display) for a few seconds, then I see the boot screen again for a moment and then my desktop appears. | 20:19 |

After a 250mb of update installed, the system appears to work correctly, but when I tryed to install my video card ( Nvidia Geforce GT 425M ) the sceen stay black when I try to log in.

| BuMpIc | is it a big problem if i dont have swap partition? | 21:06 |
| jrib | BuMpIc: how much ram do you have? If you have enough ram for your applications and don't want to hibernate, not having swap is not an issue | 21:06 |
| aeon-ltd | BuMpIc: no, if you have enough ram, and don't use hibernate, or things apps that cache a lot | 21:06 |
| BuMpIc | i have 4 GB | 21:06 |
| goltoof | BuMpIc: based on my limited knowledge, you don't need it with enough ram | 21:06 |
| goltoof | i like being right :) | 21:07 |
| jrib | BuMpIc: you should be ok. If you find yourself low on ram for your usage habits, you can create a swap partition or swap file | 21:07 |

| mbeierl | goltoof: I'm pretty sure it's not the fact that it's ntfs that's the problem. I think there's either hardware or filesystem corruption at play. I wonder... did this start only after the attempt to rm Sys Vol Info? | 21:11 |

| ubottu | d4n1s: please see above | 21:11 |

| goltoof | mbeierl: that folder didn't even appear until after this problem arose | 21:11 |
| mbeierl | goltoof: ok, good then. that makes it less likely to be filesystem corruption. I think it's probably the usb3 then. | 21:12 |

| rafael- | Hello there... I bought recently a notebook sony vaio vpc f136fm, and I was trying to install ubuntu 10.10 64bits there, with through wubi. After a 250mb of update installed, the system appears to work correctly, but when I tryed to install my video card ( Nvidia Geforce GT 425M ) the sceen stay black when I try to log in. I already tryed to download the oficial driver from the nvidea site, | 21:13 |

| coz_ | bluedust, doesnt /system/administration/disk utility help with that? | 21:15 |
| Arleas_ | i've used ntfsresize to shrink a partition, but i can't seem to grow the partition! | 21:16 |

| sl33k_ | hi, i am on 10.04,sometime back I posted about the problem about sound output both ways(speaker and headphone) even after i plug in the headphones. After taking some help from here it got fixed. But after restarting the machine the problem still exist? Any help appreciated! | 21:17 |
| nikitas13 | hi all! | 21:17 |
| Elihai | ? | 21:17 |
| coz_ | bluedust, understood...well if you are on ubuntu at this moment...then look under /System/Administration/Disk Utility that should get you started with formtting an external drive | 21:17 |
| coz_ | bluedust, you dont want to format it at ext3 or 4 if you are using this for windows as well...probably fat | 21:17 |
| feyd | can anyone help with integrating MPlayer in Chromium? | 21:18 |

| arooni-mobile | LeGambitteur, what will that tell me | 21:19 |
| mbeierl | goltoof: ah, yes that was the one: photorec. it looks for "known file headers" and attempts to pull the content off the device: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DataRecovery | 21:19 |
| g_o_o | sl33k_, system, preferences, sound then choose output tab, then at the bottom choose connector analog output | 21:19 |
| arooni-mobile | LeGambitteur, i mean i can use the computer for about 24 hours and it freezes again | 21:20 |
| kenguest | hmm. any ideas how I might be able to always get the icon for a portable external harddrive to always display in the same position (specified by the user) on the desktop? Horribly on-topic I know... | 21:20 |

| kelsey | I have a computer running Ubuntu 9.04 that connects to the internet via ethernet and to an internal network via a wireless adapter. If the internal network is accessed first when the network is started then I cannot access ethernet. Any ideas? | 21:20 |
| goltoof | mbeierl: soo, where to start? | 21:20 |
| kenguest | 9.10 I think | 21:21 |
| mbeierl | goltoof: ddresuce (the gnu one) is another good option - it tries to pull the raw partition onto your local filesystem and then you can mount it | 21:21 |
| mbeierl | goltoof: how much space do you have of direct attached storage? | 21:21 |
| g_o_o | kelsey, are the external connection and internal connections on different subnets? | 21:21 |

| USS_OHIO | can someone please tell me where i can find my windows files in ubuntu | 21:22 |
| LeGambitteur | arooni-mobile: I'v got the same problem with my pentium IV, with that I'v fount that it was not a file system or any modification I'v done that causes the problem, so I'v checked all the hardware and finally found that it was the graphic card. | 21:23 |
| aeon-ltd | d4n1s: ok long story short you don't, they are what you'd call tar balls, you extract and compile them | 21:23 |
| arooni-mobile | LeGambitteur, how did you check all hard ware? | 21:23 |
| g_o_o | sl33k_, beneath that it says connector, drop down box choose analog output | 21:23 |
| mbeierl | goltoof: enough to copy the entire partition of the USB drive over, and then extract a copy of the data? (ie: if it's a 200gb drive that is 50% full, you need 200gb + 100gb for the data after) | 21:23 |
| BuMpIc | i formatted my pendrive form NTFS into EXT3 but my linux doesnt see him so i cant see it in gnome.Why is that? | 21:23 |
| goltoof | mbeierl: well, the usb drive is 1tb, local is only 750gb | 21:23 |
| goltoof | mbeierl: so, this may not work? | 21:23 |

| g_o_o | kelsey, when connected wirelessly you are on a different subnet from the external connection | 21:24 |
| goltoof | mbeierl: the drive is not full, but still it needs to yank the full partition? | 21:24 |
| d4n1s | 10000000 times stick with ur linux, with 2 clicks u can do pretty much everything! | 21:24 |
| mbeierl | goltoof: urg. no, but maybe we can run ddresuce on the drive without making a local copy | 21:24 |
| d4n1s | with ur windows* | 21:24 |
| sl33k_ | g_o_o: its already analog output | 21:24 |
| g_o_o | kelsey, you can edit you routing table to see the other subnet | 21:25 |
| Sc0tt | Any idea why my headphone jack doesn't work. Using ubuntu 10.10 | 21:25 |
| g_o_o | sl33k_, | 21:25 |
| mbeierl | goltoof: the premise is to remove the content as quickly as possible without using the disk any further - that's the reason for the first copy. So, what device is the drive attached as? | 21:25 |
| d4n1s | sudo apt-get windows7 | 21:25 |
| LeGambitteur | arooni-mobile: by removing all the stuf I'v added before (modem card, raid controller card, ...), checking the voltages in the bios monitor... | 21:25 |
| g_o_o | sl33k_, open terminal type alsamixer and check if the channels are muted | 21:25 |
| mbeierl | goltoof: that is the real question. See it might not even show up as a /dev/sdX device if it's the fuser mount thing | 21:25 |
| Mosterd | What is the difference between a window manager and a desktop environment? | 21:25 |
| goltoof | mbeierl: /dev/sdb1 | 21:25 |
| kelsey | g_o_o: Yes | 21:25 |
| goltoof | mbeierl: no, it shows, but ddrescue requires the new media to be larger that the fail disk | 21:26 |
| Mosterd | !ubottu windowmanager | 21:26 |
| mbeierl | goltoof: that rocks! good. ok, let's install ddrescue from that site I sent: sudo apt-get install gddrescue | 21:26 |
| csgradvt | hi again | 21:26 |
| USS_OHIO | ah yes after hours of begging for help and getting absolutly none "thanks by the way" i have found what i was looking for accidently | 21:27 |

| csgradvt | I need help in wubi install ... any1? | 21:27 |
| sl33k_ | g_o_o: master 74<>74 ---- pcm 100<>100 | 21:27 |
| mbeierl | goltoof: that is if the disk itself is unreadable. we might be able to do this another way... hang on a moment...? | 21:27 |
| ThatDudeButch | hey guys | 21:28 |
| kelsey | g_o_o: Alright I will. Thanks. | 21:28 |
| g_o_o | sl33k_, do the channels say MM at the bottom? | 21:28 |
| goltoof | mbeierl: i confuse... i got 200gb on the fail disk.. oh oko | 21:28 |
| ThatDudeButch | anyone personally had a "No root file system detected" error before? | 21:28 |
| BuMpIc | how can i make that if i double click to a pdf then it will opened wih my pdf viewer? | 21:28 |
| sl33k_ | g_o_o: no | 21:28 |
| mbeierl | goltoof: going down that list ... "foremost - Foremost can recover files from an image of the drive, or from the drive directly" Let's try using formost to read the drive instead of fuse | 21:29 |
| g_o_o | sl33k_, when did the sound stop working? | 21:29 |
| mbeierl | goltoof: sudo apt-get install foremost | 21:29 |
| aeon-ltd | BuMpIc: right click, open with, always open with this application (or similar) | 21:29 |
| sl33k_ | g_o_o: after restarting | 21:29 |
| g_o_o | sl33k_, was there sound at logon? | 21:30 |
| BuMpIc | aeon-ltd, thank you | 21:30 |
| mbeierl | goltoof: and then it appears to be simple enough: "sudo foremost -i /dev/sdb -o /recovery/foremost" where /recovery/foremost is a directory that you create, or use "-o ~/recovered_data" or so instead | 21:30 |
| sl33k_ | g_o_o: ya it was there. The problem is that after putting headphones the sound also comes from the laptop speaker | 21:31 |
| LeGambitteur | need help plz : every time I reboot the system I need to change visal effects so I can get the windows border, boutons, .... How to fix that one time for all ? | 21:31 |
| sl33k_ | g_o_o: in addition to the headphone output | 21:32 |
| aeon-ltd | LeGambitteur: are you using compiz? | 21:32 |
| LeGambitteur | aeon-ltd: yas | 21:32 |
| g_o_o | sl33k_, ah ok and if you mute the laptops speakers what happens? | 21:32 |
| goltoof | mbeierl: can't umount sdb1.. busy? | 21:32 |
| aeon-ltd | LeGambitteur: alt-f2, compiz --replace --- after this it should just remember next boot | 21:32 |
| goltoof | how do i make it not busy? | 21:32 |
| sl33k_ | g_o_o: mutes like normal | 21:33 |
| aeon-ltd | LeGambitteur: "compiz --replace" | 21:33 |
| LeGambitteur | aeon-ltd: thx a lot ;) | 21:33 |
| mbeierl | goltoof: that's interesting. so let's see what is using it: "sudo lsof | grep sdb" | 21:33 |
| goltoof | mbeierl: http://paste.ubuntu.com/560741/ | 21:34 |
| ubunturocks3 | hi friends | 21:35 |
| mbeierl | goltoof: Ah. of course - the thing that is using sdb1 is the ntfs mount program. So, what directory does it show up as "mount | grep sdb1" - then use that to grep the output of lsof. Sorry 'bout that. | 21:36 |
| BuMpIc | if in open with it needs other.. and i have to write something into the aplication area what i have to write? | 21:36 |
| aeon-ltd | BuMpIc: the path to the application you want or just the application name | 21:36 |
| goltoof | mbeierl: /dev/sdb1 on /media/My Passport type fuseblk (rw,nosuid,nodev,allow_other,blksize=4096,default_permissions) | 21:37 |

| mbeierl | goltoof: then I suspect that there is some sort of filesystem damage after all, but at the directory structure level, not necessarily the file data level. Reformat is a good idea at this time, but ... I'd still think you would like to get to the root cause at some point before trusting that disk again. | 21:46 |
| goltoof | mbeierl: looks like this will take a while... but after i get all this it's on to reformat, re-backup, and finally reinstall | 21:46 |
| goltoof | mbeierl: you have officially made my day sir | 21:46 |
| sl33k_ | what are the typical setting for alsamixer? | 21:46 |
| ylmson | okay, found it...setting xterm*boldMode: false | 21:46 |
| mbeierl | goltoof: good to know. Btw, I've got an external disk at home that I'd like to recover, so this saved my day too! | 21:47 |
| goltoof | mbeierl: yea, best way to learn is to teach, i find | 21:47 |
| mbeierl | goltoof: another thing that can take some time is to do a surface scan of the disk, looking for bad sectors. A destructive test is okay at the time of formatting. I'm going to do a search for a surface scan utility for this... | 21:48 |
| goltoof | mbeierl: you don't think it being ntfs is the problem? | 21:48 |
| mbeierl | goltoof: it IS possible, but... it's data, I'd rather prefer to be sure before using the disk again, just in case. | 21:48 |

| sockPants | casper.log shows 'cant umount /root/sys: no such file or dir' and similar errors | 22:04 |

| gergio | gaz|schmooster, unless I'm doing something completely ridiculous, there is no /etc/X11/xorg.conf - the file just isn't there | 22:31 |
| mongy | mikebot, is it an intel video card/ | 22:32 |
| mikebot | mongy: Um, not sure... let me try to check | 22:32 |
| KM0201 | CaneToad: i'd suspect some sort of hardware issue.. cuz i have that same realtek device, and it never has caused me a problem | 22:32 |
| CaneToad | KM0201: works perfectly under win (??????) | 22:32 |
| Sc0tt | Yeah i'm having gfx card issues too read guides but can't figure out if the xorg file is obsolete or what seems ubuntu 10.10 doesn't have it by defatult | 22:33 |

| KM0201 | CaneToad: dunno..t hat is strange. | 22:33 |
| mikebot | mongy: IS this it? 10.1" 1024x600 LED Display (16:9); Intel GMA 3150 Graphics | 22:34 |
| gergio | gaz|schmooster, just using aptitude to purge the whole xserver-xorg package and reinstalling it | 22:34 |
| goltoof | CaneToad: which makes me think it's a driver issue, but yeah sometimes a new card does the trick | 22:34 |
| secoif | #join ##politics | 22:34 |
| secoif | bah | 22:34 |
| mongy | mikebot, yeah.... I thought maybe 'nomodeset' might have worked | 22:34 |
| CaneToad | goltoof: new card == new PC [notebook] | 22:34 |
| goltoof | CaneToad: oic | 22:34 |
| mikebot | mongy: UNR is not compatible with INterl vid cards? | 22:34 |
| mongy | mikebot, it is... | 22:35 |
| goltoof | CaneToad: does your network connections icon disappear until you reboot? i've experienced that before | 22:35 |
| Sc0tt | anyone have any experience with changing propriety radeon drivers? I'm stumped | 22:35 |

| CaneToad | goltoof: dunno about icons, but dhclient on the network interface can't bring it up | 22:36 |
| mongy | mikebot, just the desktop installer seems to have issues with intel video cards. | 22:36 |
| mongy | mikebot, is this 10.10 netbook ?? | 22:36 |
| mikebot | mongy: Is there another way to install it? There's an exe in the main usb folder... | 22:36 |
| mongy | mikebot, so nomodeset didnt work? | 22:37 |
| mikebot | mongy: Yeah, 10.10 | 22:37 |
| mongy | mikebot, the netbook version of it ? | 22:37 |
| mikebot | mongy: Oh, I didn't try nomodeset, I tried to noaspci something | 22:37 |
| mikebot | mongy: THis is the netbook version | 22:38 |
| gergio | OK - purging and reinstalling xserver-xorg didn't help. I'm still getting the Ubuntu splash screen and then just blackness. Also, after I reinstalled xserver-xorg and ran "sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg" nothing happened - though I'm not sure if anything was meant to.... | 22:38 |
| mongy | mikebot, nomodeset, then as a last resort, acpi=off | 22:38 |
| mikebot | mongy: I think the default was on acpi=off | 22:38 |
| mikebot | mongy: OK, let me try nomodeset | 22:38 |

| lolcat | What do I do with boot.img.gz? | 23:08 |
| Sc0tt | There are usb boot cd's if your comp doesnt' recognize usb as a boot option | 23:08 |
| mikebot | DasEi: When I boot from usb, it quickly goes to the purple screen then straight to a terminal-like screen and a bunch of stuff flashes and it then freezes | 23:09 |
| chaos2358 | DasEi, in system>pref i have no options relating to printing | 23:09 |
| mikebot | DasEi: someone else told me to press a button on the purple screen and that brought up menus, but when I tried to run or install, the same terminal thing happened | 23:09 |
| mikebot | DasEi: I also tried doing the noaspci and nomodeset and aspci=off things, but the same result | 23:09 |
| DasEi | mikebot: ic, so usb itself works then, try alternate ways of usb utils, what did you use ? | 23:09 |
| mikebot | DasEi: Someone else thought it was my Intel vid card, but I have no clue... | 23:09 |
| mikebot | DasEi: I haven't tried anything else | 23:10 |
| DasEi | mikebot: starupcreator, unetbootin, pendrivelinux... | 23:10 |
| VCoolio | _joey: that will only help to execute stata-se directly without path, but give it a shot; you know how to do that? | 23:10 |
| mikebot | DasEi: Oh, I made the usb with pendrivelinux | 23:10 |
| lolcat | How do I use the boot.img.gz? | 23:10 |
| _joey | VCoolio: what else can I try? | 23:10 |
| mikebot | DasEi: And I did an md5 thing to check the iso image and it matched up | 23:10 |
| _joey | maybe it needs to know the directory because it has all config files along with the executable | 23:11 |
| DasEi | mikebot: try unetbootin or usb-creator (repo); seems like the boot is fine, but the install to it went wrong, thinkpad is very common and thus thankfull hardware | 23:11 |
| Pep999 | Hola a todos | 23:12 |
| mikebot | DasEi: OK.. I also installed it on the usb with pendrive twice... once I formatted the usb myself, second time had pendrive format it | 23:12 |
| lolcat | To prepare a USB stick, back up any data that you have on it (any data will be overwritten) and zcat boot.img.gz >> /dev/sdX where X is the letter of your USB stick. IS that all I have to do? | 23:12 |
| lolcat | No copying or thinking? | 23:12 |
| VCoolio | _joey: yes, that's why I suggested cd blah && execute, to set current directory first; but add it to $PATH, won't hurt | 23:12 |
| DasEi | mikebot: a pre-install to fat is recommended either way | 23:12 |
| DasEi | pre-format, mikebot* | 23:12 |
| mikebot | DasEi: OK... Can unetbootin format the usb drive? | 23:12 |
| DasEi | mikebot: can, but better use gparted, new partitable, then format to fat32 (16 on older thumbs) | 23:13 |
| _joey | VCoolio: where did you suggest that? | 23:14 |
| mikebot | DasEi: OK, thank you. I will try both of those | 23:14 |
| VCoolio | _joey: 23:59 CET | 23:15 |
| _joey | anyway, adding location to path did not solve it | 23:15 |
| DasEi | mikebot: also o unetbootin, don't use the whole remaining space of unetbootin offering for persistant storage, just leave a ~200MB blank | 23:15 |
| mikebot | DasEi: Um.. OK.. will that make sense when I open it? | 23:16 |
| DasEi | mikebot: which size has the usb ? | 23:16 |
| VCoolio | _joey: put it on ubuntuforums in general help and go to bed before you get frustrated, try again tomorrow | 23:16 |

| DasEi | mikebot: roughly estimated the install will fill 800MB, so give 900MB for storage, and unetbootin shall do the job | 23:18 |
| _joey | VCoolio: I can understand why people are complaining about Desktop usability. Something as simple as running application from the panel and there are so many problems | 23:18 |

| KimK | Hi, I'm using Ubuntu 10.04, and I'd like to get newer versions of VirtualBox OSE available from Synaptic. I have 3.1.6 (OSE) installed, but it seems like there should be newer ones available. See http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/multiverse/v/virtualbox-guest-additions/ and http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/universe/v/virtualbox-ose/ for examples. How often does VirtualBox get updated in the repos? | 23:38 |

| needlez | I am trying to add a refresh to the browser I'm running in a script after I change my mac address how can I do this?? | 23:39 |
| KM0201 | Flare183: i see a pidgin-skype plugin in Synaptic... you probably need to add the pidgin PPA | 23:39 |
| john___ | ty bikcmp | 23:39 |
| Flare183 | KM0201: I'm not sure | 23:39 |
| manas | i have just installed ubuntu on my sony vai, but my mouse pad doesnt work. but when i attach a usm bouse it does what cane be the cause? | 23:39 |
| KM0201 | john38: if you add the pidgin PPA, it looks like the pidgin-skype plugin is there | 23:39 |

| sockPants | i think i've killed my cd-rom drive device in ubuntu, is there any service i can restart to make it work again? | 23:42 |
| cb49747 | actual install | 23:42 |
| john___ | i think i will stick with python for linux dev and scripts :) | 23:42 |

| KM0201 | cb49747: which broadcom device is it, do you know? | 23:43 |
| KimK | jrib, sockPants: But the newer versions seem to be sitting there in the repo already. The newer versions won't work with 10.04 (LTS)? How long until the newer versions get back-ported to the LTS version? I'm trying to install CentOS 5.5 in VirtualBox and the CentOS folks say my VirtualBox is too old. | 23:43 |

| john38 | 10.10 maverick wont install on Laptop | 23:44 |
| KM0201 | cb49747: "lspci" in a terminal should do it (thats a lowercase L) it'll output a bunch of stuff, find your wireless device | 23:44 |
| tlir_ | guys, is it possible to add network drives to the Files & Folders side menu in Ubuntu Netbook Edition shell ? | 23:44 |
| jrib | KimK: that version you see is likely for maverick or natty. It may work, but it's not available on lucid because of the update policy I mentioned previously. If you need later versions, the easiest way is to just use the official vbox repositories as someone else mentioned | 23:44 |
| chaos2358 | DasEi ActionParsnip. ok i tried again and it still wouldnt work. so i went and downloaded the debian driver kit from here>> http://support-my.canon-asia.com/contents/MY/EN/0100236101.html << and it downloaded as a tar.gz file. I created a folder and extracted to it. Now what | 23:44 |
| cb49747 | bcm4312 | 23:44 |
| jrib | chaos2358: my printer automagically worked when I plugged into my computer and turned it on. Is that not the case for yours? | 23:45 |
| DasEi | chaos2358: you d/l 'ed the deb ? | 23:46 |
| manas | hi, i have just installed ubuntu on my sony vaio. my mouse pad doesnt work. but when i attach a USB mouse it does . What to do? | 23:46 |
| KM0201 | cb49747: ok... follow the instructions on that link i gave you.. make sure the STA packages are installed properly, and if that doesn't work, try the b43 driver... it's all on that link ubottu gave you a minute ago. | 23:46 |
| chaos2358 | Jrib of course it worked automagically. I'm just bored and trying to find out how to make it work manually. DUHHH. | 23:46 |
| chaos2358 | DasEi yes | 23:46 |
| Valynor | cb49747: in my experience the best solution to deal with Broadcom wireless cards problems is to trash it and buy something based on the Atheros chipset for less than $10. For that you will get well supported drivers | 23:46 |
| jrib | chaos2358: oh you should do something more productive, but to each his own | 23:46 |
| chaos2358 | DasEi and extracted it to a folder | 23:46 |
| DasEi | chaos2358: sudo dpkg -i cnij<TAB> | 23:46 |
| DasEi | in that folder | 23:47 |

| Dr_Willis | coreire: hit space3 or shift when ya see the man, try the nomodeset option also.. | 23:47 |
| ActionParsnip | chaos2358: in the files extracted, you will see deb files | 23:47 |
| john38 | Acid190, when i put in i wont get past installation screen | 23:47 |
| DasEi | goltoof: depends on where it's used on mostly | 23:47 |
| coreire | Dr_Willis: Thanks, will try that now | 23:47 |
| cb49747 | Valynor from what I read on the internet you suggestion seems to be the way to go. | 23:47 |
| DasEi | goltoof: either ext3 or ntfs | 23:47 |
| * hotrod is away: Gone away for now | 23:47 | |

| goltoof | DasEi: mostly on linux, i'd just like to keep it from getting corrupted when i use it in windows | 23:48 |
| john38 | Acid190, wont even load | 23:48 |
| john38 | Acid190, i'd say it hangs | 23:48 |
| DasEi | goltoof: use ext3 then and install additional driver for win | 23:48 |
| goltoof | DasEi: what about ntfs3g ? | 23:48 |
| john38 | Acid190, blinking line on top | 23:48 |
| chaos2358 | DasEi ok that command is returning nothing | 23:48 |
| KimK | jrib, sockPants: Oh, there's an official Vbox repo? OK, I'll try that. At virtualbox.com I'd guess? I saw the debs, but I really like the automatic updates. Thanks! | 23:48 |
| wanderingi | if i have 1>&2 will that ensure stderr and stdout will write to the one file? | 23:48 |
| DasEi | goltoof: ntfs is supported nativly by ubuntu | 23:49 |
| sockPants | KimK: yep i used it the other day, hope it works for you | 23:49 |
| goltoof | DasEi: oh nvm, thats just ntfs driver for linux | 23:49 |
| nix_goddess | any hot linux guys here? | 23:49 |

| avashi1 | guys I am having problem install "wine" .. Wine lets me run window based application on linux | 23:49 |
| DasEi | goltoof: yepp, but for permissions and repair options as for defragging reasons use ext3 | 23:49 |
| nix_goddess | oh sorry | 23:49 |
| chaos2358 | Action Parsnip In the extracted stuff I have "packages, Resources, and an instal.sh but the install.sh wont install in software center when i double click it | 23:49 |
| Acid190 | john38: your installing natively? have a fresh cd and clean hdd? | 23:49 |
| nix_goddess | i need support ;) | 23:49 |
| john38 | Acid190, i tried desktop, netbook and upgrading from 10.04 | 23:50 |
| ActionParsnip | nix_goddess: then ask | 23:50 |
| DasEi | goltoof: the ext3 support works write/reaad and for subdirs, too, not so ext4 | 23:50 |
| goltoof | nix_goddess: if you mean hot as in mad linux skills then yes | 23:50 |
| nix_goddess | i need support for my boobs | 23:50 |
| nix_goddess | yes mad skills | 23:50 |
| john38 | Acid190, on dvd | 23:51 |
| Acid190 | john38: I would hate to recommend a new download, but sometimes that's the case if that dvd can't install at all | 23:51 |
| ActionParsnip | nix_goddess: can you ask an Ubuntu support question, help others or sit quiet/leave | 23:51 |
| hzroot | clear | 23:51 |
| goltoof | nix_goddess: you'd have to be a girl for that support, which isn't likely in your case, and this is for ubuntu support only | 23:51 |
| nix_goddess | action do you need a release hun you seem rather uptight ;) | 23:51 |
| john38 | Acid190, im able to install 10.04 fine | 23:51 |
| DasEi | chaos2358: you used TAB for autocomplete, no errors reported, so driver is installed then, restart cups, try again | 23:51 |
| goltoof | !ot | nix_goddess | 23:51 |
| ubottu | nix_goddess: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, for all Ubuntu-related support questions. Please use #ubuntu-offtopic for other topics (though our !guidelines apply there too). Thanks! | 23:51 |
| john38 | Acid190, so what i should try usb install | 23:52 |
| Acid190 | john38: 10.04 is long-term support, 10.10 is not | 23:52 |
| ActionParsnip | nix_goddess: no thanks, I have a girlfriend | 23:52 |
| gpc | !guidelines > nix_goddess | 23:52 |

| nix_goddess | ty goltoof | 23:52 |
| DasEi | chaos2358: sudo service cups restart | 23:52 |

| ActionParsnip | goltoof: I guess a wire weaves in a line.... | 23:56 |

| chaos2358 | DasEi wait what? find it in the deb i dl? | 23:57 |
| Acid190 | john38: im no guru, unless someone else can help you further, I would google your mic hardware with ubuntu 10.04 and see if a configuration is available | 23:57 |
| wanderingi | if i exit unix but get the message that jobs are still running, what will happen if i try the exit command again? | 23:57 |
| ActionParsnip | Assi: if you run: sudo apt-get update; sudo apt-get -f install and pastebin the output | 23:57 |
| DasEi | chaos2358: no, getting the id under which ubuntu connects it | 23:57 |
| DasEi | chaos2358: lsusb in terminal | 23:57 |
| needlez | who was having the issue with the broadcom?? | 23:58 |
| john38 | Acid190, i dont know what kind of built in camera mic it is i know if use alc269 sound | 23:58 |
| goltoof | ActionParsnip: then again calling a line or a wire "hard" would imply a "soft" variant | 23:58 |
| Dr_Willis | wanderingi: they get closed i imagine. | 23:58 |
| Acid190 | john38: there may be just a hardware update for the mic once you have 10.04 installed instead of upgrading all the way to 10.10 | 23:58 |
| chaos2358 | DasEi Bus 001 Device 004: ID 04a9:173a Canon, Inc. | 23:58 |
| john38 | Acid190, ok | 23:58 |
| DasEi | chaos2358: so usb not disabled | 23:59 |
| chaos2358 | DasEi I guess not | 23:59 |
| needlez | is there anyway to tell a bash script to refresh the webpage im on?? | 23:59 |
