[00:00] shawndrost: my advice: update your system if you're linux save or compile apache and create a package from the source otherwise. that way its easier to revert if you have problems [00:00] chaos2358, Have you tried installing and running as sudo? (At least installing so everything gets where it needs to be) [00:00] <``> if this problem was ongoing for more then a few days and u dont want to blow your brains further tryng to resolve it try a fresh instal @ chaos [00:00] Starminn, yes of course. [00:00] Any ideas why I can't grab the kernel sources using apt-get(I get a 404? [00:00] http://pastebin.com/zn2FL2g4 [00:01] shawndrost: normally an update is painless, but sometimes you have to correct something [00:01] chaos2358, :) Just making sure. Alright, well the only thing I'm left with is just reinstalling it. Just back up your Home folder and reinstall Ubuntu. May be killing a fly with a bazooka but at least it'll work. (Anybody else wanna chime in?) [00:02] Do I need to add anything to /etc/apt/sources.list ? [00:02] <``> @ starmin thats what i said a few times already so i agree! [00:03] The error from vlc is: [0xb7300be0] main input error: ES_OUT_RESET_PCR called [00:03] Starminn, i'm hoping I can get away without having to do that because i have over 150 gigs of media stored on it. family photos, etc [00:03] <``> Good lucj chaos! [00:03] hey [00:03] Confused: Mplayer must be broken. Try to upgrade or re-install mplayer or smplayer [00:03] mike_miller, no... change the package-server [00:03] can some1 help me? i have troubles installing ubuntu [00:03] schnuffle1: thanks. by "create a package", do you mean create my own apt package, or just compile the new version? [00:03] rumpe1: How? To point to what? [00:03] I did all that and I reconfigured everything using dpkg-reconfigure. [00:04] can some1 help me? i have troubles installing ubuntu [00:04] luigiana: what is the issue at hand [00:04] whenever i boot, and press install it goes blackscreen [00:04] mike_miller, to another mirror [00:05] try to add [00:05] In fact, I purged all of the media players and libreaddvd and libdvdcss and reinstalled everything. [00:05] chaos2358, Just put the Home folder on its own partition and just don't touch that partition on reinstall. [00:05] vga=471 [00:05] Luigiana, have you tried safe-graphics mode. [00:05] dont remember number exactly [00:05] luigiana: which version are you installing? [00:05] mike_miller, 404 means the current mirror you are using is not available [00:05] shawndrost: you can use the checkinstall tool to create a de package, or you get the ubuntu package source ana create it with the debian tool. first way is easier second one cleaner and gets you all dependencies [00:05] im installing the 10.10 [00:05] rumpe1: How would I go about changing my mirror? [00:05] and im running a intel quad core [00:05] <``> @ Lugiana does your pc meat the requirements for installing ubuntu 10.10 [00:05] <``> ? [00:05] mike_miller, e.g. with synaptic-packagemanager [00:05] as mentioned im running quad core [00:06] rumpe1: Which mirror should I change to? [00:06] luigiana: and graphics card? [00:06] 7600 gtx i think [00:06] chaos2358, have you tried reinstalling gnome-main-menu, maybe I'm not following what the problem is [00:06] chaos2358: How did you install? Synaptic? Did you open it from CLI? If so, did you start it with sudo synaptic or gksudo synaptic? [00:06] Confused: How about libdvdcss ? [00:06] Also, I don't have a GUI. What would I use instead of synpatic? Would editing source.list have the same effect? [00:06] one sec guys. [00:07] mike_miller: yes === nathan is now known as nmr8 [00:07] luigiana: will Ubuntu be the primary os on your drive? [00:07] I reinstalled libdvdcss after purging it but libdvdcss is actually working and has always worked. It generates the key, but the DVD play. This isn't a decryption problem, or at least I don't think it is. [00:07] yea [00:07] okay, so what mirror WOULD have linux_2.6.35-24.42, if not security.ubuntu.com? [00:07] g_0_0, ok it gives invalid command trying to install. [00:08] mike_miller, yes, you could edit sources.list [00:08] Confused: Maybe codecs need to be installed or re-installed, (not complete or lacking in some way)... [00:08] OttifantSir, I tried installing via sudo apt-get in terminal [00:08] Did all of that. [00:08] mike_miller: do a aptitude update and retry [00:08] Confused: DO you have GStreamer codecs ? [00:08] Yes, I do. [00:08] All purged and reinstalled. [00:09] Confused: permissions for the dvd-drive do allow your user? another strange idea would be to check for libdvdnav version, though it is not necessary to play dvds [00:09] schnuffle1: looks like that did the trick, thanks [00:09] mike_miller, mirrors are e.g. in /usr/share/update-manager/mirrors.cfg [00:09] luigiana: I have seen graphics card errors with 10.10, I would try the lts release of Ubuntu, version 10.04. there really isn't much of a difference. [00:10] second are you installing through a thumb drive or dvd? [00:10] mike_miller: that happens when you don't have the latest repo infos and something has changed [00:10] Ivis: just right click on any flash embedded media, then it should have some options; also if you're using compiz disable that, it may make the video smoother [00:10] I am in the cdrom group which seems to be all of the permissions I should need, but just to be sure, I changed the permissions for /dev/dvd to 777 just for testing purposes. When that didn't work, I changed them back to what they should be. [00:11] chaos2358: OK. I just remembered that opening GUI-apps with sudo from a terminal can give you problems. [00:11] hello - SHN audio files are not working, can someone help please [00:11] OttifantSir, anyother ideas? [00:11] guys please help if possible: problem just clean installed ubuntu 10.04lts when i boot or try to boot all i get is a message (Boot form atapi cd-rom : error : out of disk.) then a grub rescue prompt any ideas how to fix [00:11] Confused: Try installing mplayer from http://www.mplayerhq.hu/design7/news.html [00:11] I like how you are thinking though Midas and user13. [00:11] Confused: /dev/dvd should already be 777 becouse it is a symlink to the actual device /dev/sr0 [00:12] chaos2358, no luck reinstalling gnome-main-menu? [00:12] Confused: I'm still thinking it's a video driver prolem. See http://www.mplayerhq.hu/design7/news.html [00:12] g_0_0, no in terminal it gives invalid command and i cant find the package in synap or software center. [00:12] How do you think that would help usr13? They all use the same basic libraries. If it were a video driver problem, how would I be able to play ripped dvd's using the same players? [00:13] Confused: Let me ask you this; Is this 10.04 system fully updated? [00:13] chaos2358: Not really. I thought about maybe installing ubuntu-desktop to see if that solved it, but that's ONE big package, and isn't what I'd try so soon [00:13] chaos2358, so sudo apt-get install gnome-main-menu doesn't work? [00:14] Confused: What command are you using to tell mplayer to play DVD? [00:14] Yes, I am fully updated. I am running kubuntu by the way in case that makes any difference. [00:14] chaos2358: Have you checked your enabled repos? In Synaptic or sources.list [00:14] g_0_0, nope invalid command is the output [00:14] <__name__> hello. [00:14] can anyone help me with grub rescue [00:14] <``> chaos fresh install should save u allot of head aches dont forget back up your home folder b4 u fresh install ;-) [00:14] brb guys rebooting [00:14] mplayer dvd://12 (12 is the longest DVD title.) [00:14] say, any reason why a brand new, fresh install of 10.04 server would be grabbing the KVM packages at only 30 kb/s? Its hooked up via a gig nic, plenty of bandwitdh [00:15] Confused: did you try the --verbose= switch on the cli with xine? sry if i missed something, i did not read the whole backlog [00:15] <__name__> can i except a network to be displayed as roaming in networkmanager? [00:16] I made a patch using patch -p0 -b < myFile. How can I undo the patch? [00:16] (since it didn't apply cleanly) [00:16] I get this message when running xdg-open file:///path/to/home in terminal: gvfs-open: path: error opening: No program registered. Can anyone help me correct this? I can open Nautilus, but Nautilus can't open Videos/Documents etc from any of AWN's menu or folder applets. At #awn I was told it was a problem in Gnome. [00:17] @lart gpc [00:17] Confused: Any luck with just mplayer dvd:// [00:17] ? [00:17] Well, thanks for the attempts guys. I have to take a phone call now, but I will keep working on this and I will add something to the forums if I solve it. [00:17] what is the help command for grub rescue prompt [00:17] Nope, mplayer dvd:// doesn't work either. [00:17] Confused: Very good. sorry... [00:17] Confused: or try putting it in '' [00:17] Ok [00:18] 'dvd://' [00:18] ok good luck Confused [00:18] !resetpanels [00:18] To reset the gnome panel to defaults, type this in a !terminal: « gconftool --recursive-unset /apps/panel && killall gnome-panel » [00:19] I have to say, mplayer is the most interesting malfunction since there is no error state reported. The application just exits with an error state of 0, although it obviously malfunctions. === walt is now known as waltard === xyclo is now known as xyclo_ [00:19] Bye for now.

Just wanted to make sure it was just that before I threw my LTSP server on here in KVM [00:21] how do i restore GRUB2 [00:21] hello [00:21] !grub2 [00:21] GRUB2 is the default Ubuntu boot manager since 9.10 (Karmic). Lost GRUB after installing Windows? See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestoreGrub - For more information and troubleshooting for GRUB2 please refer to https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Grub2 [00:21] lol [00:22] Even on my DSL where I get 175K download speed on 1.5 I hit a few bad mirrors. [00:22] anyone have any idea how to remove a program, specifically google earth from my machine(ubuntu 10.10) [00:22] robehend1, if you're talking about an ubuntu mirror you can search for a faster one via the edit software sources in the software center [00:22] bozdog: dpkg [00:22] nikrud: yep, got it figured out. i was pulling from a mirror in Europe ;0 [00:23] usr13 dpkg? [00:23] I remember when doing that was faster :) [00:23] agreed [00:23] * philip_ noms on some burgers mmm :) [00:23] <``> Aoaoo [00:23] bozdog: Yes dpkg -r [00:23] bozdog: Man dpkg [00:23] bozdog: man dpkg [00:23] bozdog, where'd you get google earth? [00:24] nikrud google site [00:24] anyone here use the linux-rt package? I use it b/c it makes things more responsive, especially during I/O... one annoyance though, grub doesn't seem to want to let me make it the default at boot [00:24] looks like it isn't installed [00:24] was it set up as an ubuntu package? [00:25] but is still there [00:25] bozdog: or apt-get remove googleearth-package [00:25] nikrud pretty sure it was [00:25] bozdog, I'd run that last command from usr13 - if you got the right stuff from google you'll be gold [00:25] (pls tell me if you actually use linux-rt and have grub setup....i've tried multiple suggested approaches and of course rtfm ;) [00:25] probably need sudo apt-get [00:26] bozdog: dpkg -S google [00:26] 10.04.1 LTS [00:26] thanks all [00:27] pls privmsg me if you know the answer, this channel is too high volume to monitor....thx [00:27] Hello.

[00:29] Is there a way to forward a ms windows application windows(s) to a linux desktop without the desktop (VNC and similar programs show the whole desktop not just the application)?

[00:31] just in case, Linfert [00:31] still have the google earth installed, it works ok apart from the fonts are all illegible [00:31] nikrud: they are. easiest way is to just change the theme to clearlooks, but you can change it in gconf as well [00:32] LinuxNoob: try running steam from the terminal, via wine /path/to/steam . it should give you any crash errors [00:32] and it doesn't appear on the list of installed applications [00:32] thanks robehend1 . I'm poking around again - nice to see that the underpinnings are still recognizable [00:32] Mhhh, yes, i know, but, they do not respond... [00:32] how do i find the path to steam? its on my desktop [00:32] (im complete noob to this) [00:32] LinuxNoob: that case, the path would be /home/username/Desktop/, etc etc [00:33] LinuxNoob, you might also look under the Applications menu at the top of ur screen [00:33] so "wine /home/cameron/desktop/steam or steam.exe [00:33] LinuxNoob: steam.exe [00:33] LinuxNoob, look under Applications menu at the top of ur screen [00:34] cannot find [00:34] LinuxNoob, is Wine under your applications menu ?

[00:54] jrib, the latest unsupported version is 8.10 https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes === CripperZ-HE is now known as N0DEH [00:54] I'm on LXDE Ubuntu and I run fine on a AMD Sempron 3000+1.8GHZ 1Gig ram Machine. [00:54] btw, im using wine [00:54] 3.0 ghz atholn II 2gb ddr2 1200 [00:54] jbwiv, ^ [00:54] 10.10 [00:55] jrib, ^^^ [00:55] Athlon II X4? [00:55] yeah [00:55] hybrid processor :D [00:55] can run 64 and 32bit [00:55] Julien i prefer gnome look then w7... [00:55] Ubuntu doesn't isn't that great at multi-core CPUs [00:55] edbian: that's just out of date 9.04 had support for 18 months and that expired in october of last year [00:55] It seems that it uses one of my cores alot and the others zip [00:55] when i try and open steam it asks for steam login, pass,etc..then logs in, steam opens the browser, friendslist, etc..then about 1 second later, closes out steam. what are the possible causes? [00:56] jrib, Can you cite a source? [00:56] LinxuNoob, its because Steam isn't made for Ubuntu. Get Virtualbox [00:56] im using wine [00:56] is virtualbox better? [00:56] Wine isn't that great [00:56] UbuntuUser16, i notice that too, but when it needs em, it will use all the processors [00:56] gotcha [00:56] Virtualbox allows you to run Windows in Linux [00:56] edbian: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Releases [00:56] HI [00:56] LinuxNoob Virtualbox is a Virtual OS install thing. [00:57] jrib, Alright I believe you. Thanks [00:57] I'M NEW USER UBUNTU [00:57] Please take off Caps. [00:57] what os should i install to keep this comp super fast, while still playing games :D [00:57] but virtualbox and so on could be quite difficult to get hardware accelerated 3d working iirc [00:57] LinuxNoob, Tiny7 [00:57] brandon420: your machine can definitely run 10.04 smoothly [00:57] ive got a fast labtop [00:57] it needs a file directory so i jsut chang the terminals dir [00:57] jrib, it doesnt. [00:57] right? [00:57] lol. [00:57] brandon420: of course it does [00:57] i know the guy that made tiny7 :D [00:57] Linuxnoob, what CPU/GPU do you have? [00:58] jrib, i updated to that yesterday, and had to reinstall 9.04 cause it was so slow, not to mention 10.04 is ugly as hell [00:58] brandon420: maybe you had compiz enabled and didn't get a chance to install video drivers? Hard to speculate. [00:58] uhhh, lemme check..(where at..im windows savy..not linux savvy) and i forgot my specs [00:58] i had compiz installed, and had updated my drivers before i nuked it [00:58] GeekMan: Yea, that's right. [00:58] GeekMan: was on the phone.... [00:58] Hey! I have a laptop, Toshiba Satellite Pro A100 (PSAACE), and running Ubuntu 10.10. I had this problem, no sounds, that got (barely) fixed by adding options snd-hda-intel model=auto to the end of /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base.conf - though now the sound is very very quiet, even when boosted over 100%. alsamixer states everything is to the max, but master doesnt have a bar/value.. [00:59] aplay -l says HDA Intel, ALC861 [00:59] GeekMan: Wait.. What did you say? [00:59] IS there a Bluefish CHANNEL? [00:59] nvm hold on [00:59] bindi, no sound, or is it really quiet? [00:59] GeekMan: tar zxvf install_flash_player_10_linux.tar.gz ; sudo mv libflashplayer.so /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins/ # That's all there is to it. [00:59] brandon420: really quiet [00:59] brandon420: I'd recommend troubleshooting your issues with 10.04 or trying 10.10 instead [00:59] i get only left channel (headphones plugged in atm) [00:59] Bindi go to your audio settings [00:59] I had the same problem, Ubuntu is weird there [01:00] bindi, open a terminal and type "alsamixer" [01:00] brandon420: did that [01:00] its 100 as i said [01:00] and boosted to 140% or so from the gui [01:00] and turned up the first one? [01:00] master can not be turne [01:00] d [01:00] hmmmss [01:00] so what after that just try it out agian [01:00] http://bindi.arkku.net/upload/XwvHS3afb6.png looks like this [01:00] i had that same problem, but that fixed it [01:00] !who | brandon420 [01:00] brandon420: As you can see, this is a large channel.

Nor sure why but.... [01:05] bindi, lsmod | grep -i snd gives ? [01:05] yeah [01:05] hold on [01:05] to bad we have such inferior mobo's [01:05] we could make 1tb ram sticks :D [01:05] g_0_0: http://pastebin.com/MnPukLXX [01:05] GeekMan: I don't think re-installing the OS will help.

Burning .iso files: see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BurningIsoHowto [01:06] brandon420: i think you can just righ click an iso and tell it to burn [01:06] no trust me man this version of linux sux [01:06] unless gnome removed that feature too [01:06] hi all [01:06] is there an unrar tool other than unrar? [01:06] ariqs: why? [01:06] ariqs: there's unrar-nonfree [01:06] jrib, why you keep !w/e me, when the question has been answered? [01:06] GeekMan: might be for you, but not for all, [01:06] Ubuntu 10.10 problemas de suspencion.

Si busca ayuda en español o charlar entra en el canal #ubuntu-es. Escribe "/join #ubuntu-es" (sin comillas) y dale a enter. [01:06] i have used lost of diffrent distros of linux but this one is very crippled [01:06] brandon420: !burn gives you several options [01:07] brandon420: every answer starting with ! is to invoke the bot to say the answer [01:07] this line is correct sudo apt-get remove --purge "the packet name" [01:07] join #ubuntu-es [01:07] GeekMan: oh yeah didnt hp like disable the command line on their version too? [01:07] jesus, its gonna take 20mins to download this hoe [01:07] ? [01:07] Hey, I could use some help with a GStreamer installation [01:07] Everything was working perfectly up until a few days ago [01:08] gilbert_: necessita "/join" no solo "join" [01:08] !enter | KG [01:08] KG: Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation! [01:08] thank god it has root command LMAO i dont even enter a password for sudo [01:08] maco: Package unrar-nonfree is not available, but is referred to by another package.

[01:09] ariqs: sorry [01:09] ariqs: you very likely want unrar, not unrar-free [01:09] jrib: Sorry, habit. But since then, GStreamer can't find any plugins but the core elements like fakesrc/sink. When I use gst-inspect, only 20 elements are listed. However, /usr/libs/gstreamer-0.10 is filled with all the plugin .so's that GStreamer can't find. [01:09] np, it's just I have unrar hitting on a different file in the archive as corrupt each time. [01:09] jrib: this seems backwards of how things normally get named. that is, the free one is plain, and the nonfree one is -nonfree [01:09] its gnome but a funky version of it theres no way to use the gui to change settings for update manager [01:09] thanks jrib thats all bye [01:09] and I wanted to try a different unrar to figure it out since unrar is being ridiculous [01:09] g_0_0: ah i think i found something [01:10] bindi, ? [01:10] Codec: LSI Si3054 [01:10] maco: it used to be like that many releases ago, I guess too many people were grabbing the free version and it's pretty useless [01:10] how do i get rid of this?

[01:35] the driver setup wrong [01:35] or set to play from wrong device [01:35] goddard: maybe try ##php [01:35] pooltable: if the ubuntu cannot communicate properly with the device then wine won't. Did you find any guides [01:35] i have speakers [01:36] can I mount a partition to a directory that doesn't exist? I am trying to figure out what is on an unmounted parition... and am not sure where to mount it so was just thinking of mounting it at /explore [01:36] jrib: Yep, that's the case. [01:36] ActionParsnip not really [01:36] gbear14275: no you need the mount point to exist [01:36] john-john1: is it a fresh install or old install [01:36] john-john1: does other players work well? [01:36] pooltable: that's what you need to do [01:36] KG: hmm, try reinstalling the relevant packages before we spend more time troubleshooting? [01:36] fresh [01:37] jrib: Yeah, hope I wouldn't have to but that's what I get for being silly [01:37] john-john1: what version are you running [01:37] pksadiq: Exec format error [01:37] no no sound from other players but the test sound work [01:37] blixten: I mean try the command file [01:37] 10.10 [01:37] !sound | john-john1 [01:37] john-john1: 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. [01:37] ActionParsnip, thanks [01:37] ah oh [01:38] is there anything other then the packages to be installed that needs to be on a Ubuntu LiveCD? [01:38] ok... next question... Can I dd a running disk? [01:38] they are all the way up [01:38] pksadiq: ELF 32-bit LSB executable, Intel 80386, version 1 (SYSV), dynamically linked (uses shared libs), for GNU/Linux 2.2.0, stripped [01:38] using openssl, is there a way to tell if a file encrypted with a symetric cipher was decrypted correctly? [01:38] nvm [01:38] jrib: how to use md5sum with a directory? [01:38] blixten: what does ./ does? [01:38] MrUnagi: md5sum operates on files [01:38] hey [01:38] I have an approx 7 year old pci card but does not seem to fit into my new HP pavilion. It almost fits. Did they change the spec for a pci card recently? [01:38] then that is why i wasnt using it :D [01:38] i am having some permission issues [01:39] pksadiq: cannot execute binary file [01:39] kde-devel@rakesh-eMachines-E725:/usr$ cd local [01:39] -su: cd: local: Permission denied [01:39] blixten: try chmod +x [01:39] can someone help me with that [01:39] brophat: ask in ##hardware , this is ubuntu support [01:39] Can I unmount /boot once the machine is booted and running? [01:39] ok thanks [01:39] blixten: then again do ./ [01:39] the rythymbox is ghosting on the screen even though it was turned off. [01:39] pksadiq: it has -rwxr-xr-x [01:40] drwxrw-rw- 10 root root 4096 2011-01-25 13:52 local [01:40] these are the permissions [01:40] blixten: what is the output of: lsb_release -d thanks [01:40] blixten: do you have a linux32 command available? [01:40] john-john1 click on exit [01:40] where's the blacklist file at? [01:40] ActionParsnip: Description: Ubuntu natty (development branch) [01:40] ridin: /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf [01:41] pksadiq: yes [01:41] blixten: your release isn't supported hre [01:41] k [01:41] blixten: #ubuntu+1 is where natty is supported until it is officially release [01:41] ActionParsnip: what rls shall i use on a ppc64 box? [01:41] blixten: try linux32 command and then run ./ [01:41] @juniour the rythymbox doesn't show a symbol at the top like it usually does. [01:41] pksadiq: that gives me; 1: Syntax error: "(" unexpected [01:41] how do i know if my computer is infected by a keylogger or something, My password for one of my forum accounts (its very exlusive and cant be replaced) has been stolen twice now [01:41] blixten: maverick is the highest release supported here, the guys in #ubuntu+1 will support you. Natty is NOT stable and NOT ready [01:42] !ppc | blixten [01:42] blixten: PowerPC. Formerly used by Apple for the Macintosh line of computers. Variants are now used in popular gaming consoles. PPC was a fully supported Ubuntu architecture up to and including edgy. It is now a community port, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/PowerPCFAQ [01:42] Dead_Storage: rkhunter may help [01:42] natty wouldn´t work on my machine driver issues i think [01:42] blixten: please join #ubuntu+1 and continue support there [01:42] blixten: wow,ok linux32 thinks that its a shell script , I'm afraid, I think if you can't run 32 bit directly you can run by chroot command [01:43] Which folders in / are owned by who normally? I might have messed up a bit... [01:43] nicofs: what did you do? [01:43] pksadiq: please don't support natty here, it's offtopic. Natty is only supported in #ubuntu+1 === SolidLiq is now known as solid_liq [01:43] HI [01:43] ActionParsnip: I said nothing about natty [01:43] nicofs: most are owned root:root but there are anomolies [01:43] How would I convert a Raid-1 array into a Raid-5 array? [01:43] jrib, install a root file system by extracting a .tar.gz - and i don't think everything ended up as it should [01:43] ActionParsnip, I used something simmalar to that and it came up negitive for any malacious code [01:44] pksadiq: but you are advising blixten whom is using natty, natty isn't supported here [01:44] Dead_Storage: should be ok then [01:44] nicofs: I'd advise starting over and doing it right [01:44] ActionParsnip, so i rephrase to which folders in / are not owned by root... [01:44] ActionParsnip: wow, K , sorry [01:44] Dead_Storage: you can also run: ps -ef | less and analyse each process === SirNeo is now known as sirneo [01:44] jrib, i can only extract the tar.gz - and end up with what i have now... [01:45] nicofs: so you don't have access to the original files with the permissions? [01:45] !trivial [01:45] !trivial [01:45] jrib, i created that tar with rootstock... [01:45] ping [01:46] can someone help [01:46] digirak: pong [01:46] digirak: ask away [01:46] ActionParsnip: i am getting a permission denied for a cd [01:46] !game [01:46] !quizz [01:46] !games > Julien [01:46] Julien, please see my private message [01:46] ActionParsnip: and the file has read permissions for all [01:46] digirak: what asort of CD is it and what are you trying to do [01:47] i'd like to know what is this pae kernel? what is the difference between it and the generic kernel? [01:47] nicofs: I don't know what "rootstock" is [01:47] What the command to toggle capslock? [01:47] ActionParsnip: na am getting a permission denied for a change direcrtory [01:47] jrib, a program to create a root file system [01:47] ruffleS: it can address 64Gb RAM wheras the generic can only reference 3Gb [01:47] cd local [01:47] -su: cd: local: Permission denied [01:47] As in, change the state of capslock, but not do anything to the capslock key [01:47] digirak: if you run; sudo -i can you do what you need [01:47] nicofs: ok, and you can't redo that but tell it to create the tar.gz with permissions intact? [01:48] digirak: forget su, use: sudo -i [01:48] how to uninstall ubuntu 10.10 [01:48] ActionParsnip: i cant cd with sudo [01:48] JOHHN SMITH WESTON [01:48] ActionParsnip, should i use it then? will it make any difference to my lappy? [01:48] Julien: #ubuntu is for technical support, not silliness. Thanks. [01:48] digirak: run sudo -i and you can then issue the cd command seperately [01:48] ruffleS: if you have 32bit OS and all your RAM isn't being used then PAE will make it get used [01:49] juniour: giving up? [01:49] rww: i dont attack you so be pacifist and pragmatic. Or ... [01:49] rww: tanks a lot for you comprohension [01:49] ActionParsnip: wow that worked but then the local is highlighted in green [01:49] why? [01:50] KM0201 WT ARE YOU TALKING ABT? [01:50] juniour: did you not ask how to remove ubuntu 10.10? [01:50] jrib, in the end, rootstock creates a tar. i can tell rootstock what shall be inside - but not with which rights... i assume that in most cases it's correct - but even un-taring can have an effect on ownership... so the best and most efficient way to sort out my problem would be to manually adjust what went wrong... [01:50] digirak: how do you mean 'local'? [01:51] KM0201 how to remove that i wanna to use 10.04 thata y i waan to remove [01:51] ActionParsnip: see its like this [01:51] juniour: just install 10.04 over 10.10. [01:51] nicofs: tar will preserve permissions by default and keep them intact when you extract as superuser by default (maybe pass --preserve-permissions during extract to be sure) [01:51] ActionParsnip: i am trying to run cmakekde and it gives a permission error on usr/local/bin [01:51] ActionParsnip, ok thanks. one last question. i guess i'll get it installed so what is the metapackage i should install? would it be linux-generic-pae? and also, does it include the ubuntu patches? [01:52] KM0201 last time i did the sam but it dident work [01:52] ActionParsnip: and i am trying to change the permissions but then the directory has read permissions [01:52] juniour: afaik you'll need to backup your necessary data and reformat/reinstall. I could be wrong though. [01:52] jrib, yes, but even so - the fact that i don't install but just extract is complex... numeric ownership and so on... [01:53] frotzed i am ona dual boot with win7 [01:53] nicofs: no, it's not === plusfags is now known as plustax [01:53] frotzed i have installed ubuntu 10.10 through usb [01:54] Kernel panic - not syncing: VPS: Unable to mount root fs on unknown-block(0,0) [01:54] jrib, i just changed ownership of /lib from 500 to root - resulting in the network manager to disappear... [01:54] juniour: have you manually removed the 10.10 partition and installed 10.04 in its place? [01:54] frotzed alongside other operating system [01:54] nicofs: look, the best way is to this properly, preserving permissions from the start [01:54] How do I fix this Kernel Panic? [01:55] frotzed now i have done nothing [01:55] nicofs: if that's not possible, you can use getfacl -R to record the permissions of the original file and then restore them on this [01:55] ? [01:55] I just installed linux and it says i need a vga compatible controller. where do i download one from? [01:55] frotzed i am askig you how to do that [01:55] jrib, but what would be the original file? [01:55] ? [01:56] nicofs: the files you created the tar from [01:56] Snowman1 system->addminstration->hardware drivers [01:56] is dapper server EOL in june? [01:57] ok that is the thing i went to that and all i have are 2 different broadcom installs. i have done 1 but nothing else is there. [01:57] sagaci: yes [01:57] sagaci: yes https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Releases [01:57] my buddy told me i need to find out what to get so it can be [01:57] jrib, but what if indeed rootstock creates them wrong... [01:57] sagaci: dapper = 6.06 = June 2006. LTS for server is 5 years, so June 2011. [01:58] thanks [01:58] nicofs: I was under the impression you used rootstock to create the tar.gz from some install, is that not the case? [01:58] juniour: I believe there are several tuts online. Basically your task is to boot to a live 10.04 CD, remove the 10.10 partition (might be able to use the gui) and then select that partition as the one in which you'd like to install 10.04. GRUB should take care of itself. [01:59] jrib, rootstock takes packages from the repositories and uses qemu to emulate a system where to install them (thats how i understand it) - enough room for mistakes [01:59] actionparsnip got it to work with this thanks 1390:0001 TOMTOM B.V. GO 520 T [01:59] pooltable: cool [01:59] pooltable: glad you got the gold bro [02:00] actionparsnip got it to work with this thanks http://pytomtom.tuxfamily.org/index.php?title=Main_Page [02:00] sorry [02:00] pooltable: IDs are dead handy, what is printed on the plastic case isn't terribly useful :) [02:01] #samba [02:02] nicofs: how did you extract the tar.gz? [02:03] jrib, "tar xvzf file.tar.gz" [02:03] nicofs: as a regular user? [02:03] I'm having issues getting Wifi working on an HP Mini 1010nr with Ubuntu NE 10.10. I followed the steps at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupport/Machines/Netbooks#HP%20Mini%201010nr, but after updating WL I don't see anything in the Additional Drivers manager except the b43 drivers (no STA). The first time I tried it, STA did show up and that driver actually worked. Now it's gone from the list... any ideas? [02:03] jrib, as root on host system. [02:04] Tohuw: try a reboot [02:04] Is there a config file which determines the layout of the desktop bar? I've noticed that my arrangement is significantly different from thoseof new users I create. Is there a way to "reset" the config file so it goes back to default? [02:04] ActionParsnip: I did, that's what made it disappear from the list :D I'll try another though [02:04] ubottu: resetpanel | gbear14275 [02:04] gbear14275: To reset the panel to defaults, type this in a !terminal: « gconftool --recursive-unset /apps/panel && killall gnome-panel » [02:05] nicofs: also ubuntu? [02:05] nicofs: erm [02:05] jrib, host: ubuntu, target: shared internal storage of android 2.1 [02:05] ActionParsnip: I should have also mentioned, it can't connect to networks, but I can see the networks. (as opposed to when I first installed the OS and the driver wasn't even present) [02:07] hello everybody [02:07] Tohuw: what kind of router / wireless security are you trying to connect to? [02:07] Fredo42, hi [02:07] djjonex: hello [02:07] nicofs: well I don't know how to fetch the permission data in a tar.gz, but checking that would see if rootstock is to blame or not (I found no bugs to the effect). Otherwise, try passing -p to tar and see if it makes a difference [02:07] i wanto to setup a outgoing mail server to work with php (mail()) [02:08] frotzed: WPA2 on a Cisco SMB router. I connected just fine to a linksys using wpa2 earlier today though. [02:08] Tohuw: so the _only_ thing that has changed is the router? [02:09] frotzed: That and restarting. I have no issues with this router on another ubuntu system, though (granted, it's using an atheros) [02:09] ActionParsnip: frotzed: now the STA shows up again, but trying to install either yields the message: InstallArchives() failed [02:09] jrib, the thing is that "restarting" is really only my last resort... since getting this system running was quite some work... and since then i added lots of other things, drivers, firmware - somewhere in this process some ownerships have gone wrong - all i really need is the info, what should be owned by who... [02:09] nobody knows about localhost mail server? i need to configure one [02:10] !anyone | djjonex [02:10] djjonex: A large amount of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..." Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out? [02:10] nicofs: extract it properly somewhere else then get the info there (you can use getfacl trick for this) [02:10] i was trying to configure Sendmail Mail Server [02:10] but not lucky [02:11] djjonex: try postfix instead. It's less arcane. [02:11] my friend ran 'sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop', and now it always says kubuntu at start up [02:11] !postfilx | djjonex [02:11] !postfix | djjonex [02:11] djjonex: postfix is the default !MTA and !MDA on Ubuntu. For help, read https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Postfix and https://help.ubuntu.com/community/PostfixBasicSetupHowto - See also !MailServer [02:11] ok [02:11] he does not know how to remove/rollback it [02:11] i have it installed [02:11] I have not seen the computer in person yet.. [02:11] anybody know how to refresh GRUB2 selection menu? [02:11] pragmaticenigma, sudo update-grub2 [02:12] What do I do I if have no fstab? [02:12] edbian: that should clear out the old kernel references? [02:12] pragmaticenigma, if the kernels are no longer on the system. But if you remove those packages it takes them off the list and updates it for you. [02:13] rcmaehl, Are you SURE? How does your OS find the / drive? [02:13] pragmaticenigma: what is wrong with your name? it looks like it has a cancerous growth of letters on it [02:13] also, it's too long [02:13] pragma_, it's an enigma [02:13] no it's not [02:13] your just jeleous [02:13] jrib, it says that /lib should be owned by 500... that just sounds weird... [02:13] what's the command for metacity replace? [02:13] it makes perfect sense [02:13] IDK but according to ls-ing into the /etc/ dir after getting stuck at (initramfs) there's no fstab\ [02:13] nicofs: what says that? [02:14] john-john1, metacity --replace [02:14] edbian: IDK but according to ls-ing into the /etc/ dir after getting stuck at (initramfs) there's no fstab\ [02:14] thank you [02:14] my whois says "pragmatic chaos" [02:14] * pragma_ wins. [02:14] jrib, extracting and having a look at the owner states "500"... [02:14] rcmaehl, oh, you're stuck at initramfs (now this makes sense) You could write it by hand? Do you have busybox? [02:15] john-john1, sure [02:15] edbian: idk how to [02:15] nicofs: then it may be an issue with rootstock [02:15] but yes it says busybox [02:15] rcmaehl, do you have nano? === taka is now known as Guest46766 [02:16] jrib, it's not only rootstock - as i said it's also all the other things i added - so it really would be helpful to know how it should be on a running system... [02:16] edbian: umm idk [02:16] doesn't look like it in the help [02:16] rcmaehl, type nano, press enter [02:16] rcmaehl, this will help in writing it: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fstab [02:16] nicofs: what do you mean "it's also all the other things I added"? [02:16] edbian: /bin/sh: nano: not found [02:17] nicofs: you have a running system anyway, don't you? The host ubuntu system? [02:17] Tohuw: In my experience wireless networking can be frustrating. I'd really pour through that Cisco router and see if perhaps it's being too restrictive. [02:17] my postfix is running [02:17] greetings [02:17] jrib, firmware, drivers, the lot... [02:17] now i need to edit php.ini ? [02:17] nicofs: well what went wrong? [02:18] edbian: how do I write it? [02:18] jrib, i had hoped there is a better way that taking my host's filesystem and going through all folders on it... [02:18] Tohuw: Perhaps it has some other security measures in place other than a simple encryption. [02:18] rcmaehl, you should probably just follow this thread: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=895273 [02:18] frotzed: I am absolutely certain it is not the fault of the router. There is something strange going on with the OS itself... the STA driver appears and disappears out of jockey, and trying to install the lph version of b43 driver, which is what it really should be using, doesn't work because the URL the deb pulls from is dead. [02:18] can you guys suggest any great universal tech forums that i can join ? [02:19] ubuntuforums [02:19] djjonex: lol [02:19] frotzed: I'm a network engineer by trade. :) This is a ubuntu 10.10/b43 issue. [02:19] not a cisco router issue. [02:19] XD [02:19] yeah, by unviersal i mean everything inside technology [02:19] nicofs: of course! The better way is to get the permissions right from the start! But asking here for the permissions of folders would just give you the same info you already have from your ubuntu system. Like I said, if it's not possible to do the permissions properly for whatever reason, you can use getfacl/setfacl to copy permissions over [02:19] u know they have everything there [02:19] singularity: tomshardware.com [02:19] jrib, as such nothing went wrong - but things that should work don't... for instance wifi - when i do "ifconfig ra0 up" all i get is SIOCSIFFLAGS: Operation not permitted [02:19] singularity: askubuntu.com and the rest of stack overflow stuff [02:19] thanks rww [02:19] Tohuw: gotcha ;) Then you're more advanced than me. [02:19] djjonex: They have everything, but it's far from great.. [02:20] nicofs: but that's probably caused by the original permissions issue, no? [02:20] nicofs, sudo ifconfig ra0 up [02:20] :'( [02:20] anyother [02:20] edbian, yes, i meant that === gary_ is now known as Guest82218 [02:21] edbian, i just always forget to mention because sudo -s is what i do first... [02:21] jrib, you wouldn't believe it, but i have been through this delete all, extract again thing several times now for various reasons... [02:22] trying to run hplip-3.11.1.run but does not finish, get Running 'sudo apt-get install --assume-yes libsane-dev' [02:22] Please wait, this may take several minutes... [02:22] error: Package install command failed with error code 100 [02:22] any ideas appreciated. [02:22] cb1066: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation. [02:22] edbian: well when i'm on live cd fstab appears but when i boot from grub it doesn't [02:22] rcmaehl, that's because you're looking at the live CD's /etc/fstab, you'd have to mount your Ubuntu partition and copy /etc/fstab over (then edit it appropriate) [02:23] no I'm on /media/(UUID here)/etc/fstab [02:23] what are the speed of usb 3.0? [02:23] it exists but not when I boot from grub... [02:23] rcmaehl, does it all look correct? [02:23] yes [02:23] can I get some help with rsync or can someone point me to where I can get some help with rsync [02:24] rcmaehl, Well then you my friend need to boot (the system, not the live CD) and look for errors to figure out why you're getting dumped to busybox. It's possible that the / partition is not being mounted so you're not seeing your /etc/fstab even though it is there. [02:24] rcmaehl, oh hi =P [02:25] datakid, I can help. More specifically what is the problem? [02:25] is there a way to have 2 hard drive one with windows os the other with ubuntu and both boot at the same time if so how ? [02:26] pooltable, It is not possible to boot two OS's at the same time. [02:26] edbian: proc doesn;t have a device though' [02:26] ok [02:26] edbian, I am backing up a 550GB drive. I've done a 3 day cp -a to get 500 across. Now I want to rsync the remaining files, but only those that don't already exist in the destination [02:26] just noticed that [02:26] pooltable, You can have two running at the same time using virtualization. but one is the host OS and one is virtual [02:26] edbin ok [02:27] rcmaehl, That's cause you're not really booting into Ubuntu. So the whole ubuntu / is not available. Busybox is very limited. Do you see any errors during the Ubuntu boot? === richard is now known as Guest61568 [02:27] edbian, It's a mail spool, that can't go down - so I am expecting some files to have changed, hence mv from cp to rsync [02:27] my postfix is running how do i send an email now? :( [02:27] datakid, ok hang on, I have to think [02:27] datakid, Should it delete files that are at the destination that are not at the source? [02:27] edbian, for some reason I get the impression that rsync will actually overwrite or re-copy files that allready exist [02:27] pooltable, virtualbox is neat like that :) [02:28] I only want the diff [02:28] edbian, yes, I have --delete already [02:28] datakid, rsync is built specifically to easily do what you want [02:28] datakid, -u is the flag you're looking for [02:29] edbian: yes something about something not mounting or something it whent by too fast [02:29] can I auto enter a command in a new terminal window while opening it by gnome-terminal in teminal :P ?

[02:30] edbian, but I did seee something about copying files that already existed, which is not waht I want :) [02:30] datakid, a: archive z: compress v: verbose u:update (what I suggested) [02:30] edbian: mount: cannot read /etc/fstab: No such file or directory [02:30] MikeMike1: nope but if you'd tell us, it would me much appreciated, I could pass on the knowledge [02:30] datakid, the -u flag will do what you want. I do it all the time [02:30] is thre an ubuntu social channel? [02:30] edbian, Blue1 thanks - appreciate it [02:30] rcmaehl, go back before that [02:31] rcmaehl, we know that is actually there via the live cd right? so ignore that [02:31] I know you guys handle tech and I just want to chat with some fellow Ubuntu fans in a techinical fashion [02:31] i will report back with info [02:31] edbian: mount: mounting /dev on /root/dev failed: No such file or directory [02:31] Romulas, #ubuntu-offtopic [02:31] thank you [02:31] rcmaehl, that's a good one. go to the first error (that's how debugging works) [02:31] Romulas, no problem [02:31] m_fulder.

[02:37] rcmaehl, well that's bad... Are you sure you're doing that correctly? Perhaps you're pointing it to the wrong /dev/sdX ?

[02:54] rcmaehl, no, def not that (must have been a typo) root=/dev/sda1 [02:55] edbian: ok [02:55] rcmaehl, I'm betting that your system and the live CD name them the same [02:55] rcmaehl: it says I have installed "NVIDIA accelerated graphics driver," and it has a green icon. [02:55] ActionParsnip, http://www.alsa-project.org/db/?f=81a5f70f9ebdd201c2f9e4f35edea851f2030582 [02:56] aLemmer: are there others? [02:56] * rcmaehl hugs edbian It worked! [02:56] rcmael: no. [02:56] rcmaehl, I feel like a hero [02:56] aLemmer: then it should automatically detect the device when the svideo is connected to the card and the device [02:57] rcmaehl: I did a 'sudo apt-get build-dep ' before I installed it. [02:57] * rabbit_ 'I am little boy' [02:57] edbian: so sudo update-grub2? [02:57] brandon420: is the systenm a branded pc or laptop? [02:58] no [02:58] Hi all. I'm looking to facilitate my workflows for a couple specific use cases, and I was wondering if Ubuntu had any helpful features or if any software existed that might support me. For example, it would be nice to have a single shortcut which launches a couple programs and positions them appropriately on the screen as well. [02:58] rcmaehl, yeah, it should say stuff about 'found this kernel' and 'found that kernel' Is your grub menu totally erased? [02:58] edbian: update-grub2 not found [02:58] rcmael: its not, [02:58] rcmaehl, sudo update-grub2 [02:58] edbian: I tried [02:58] rcmaehl, sudo update-grub ? [02:58] ACameron: You can use launchers to do that :) [02:59] TDJACR: Nifty! I'll have to check out their documentation. =) [02:59] I have a RAID-1 array which I just tried to resize. First I resized the underlying partitions and then tried to use mdadm grow. The partitions are larger, but the mdadm won't let them grow === rcmaehl_fallback is now known as rcmaehl [03:00] edbian: http://pastebin.com/NXTh2q55 [03:00] rcmaehl, reading [03:00] y/n? [03:00] rcmaehl, oh hell yes [03:01] sorry, 'heck' yes [03:01] lol [03:01] rcmaehl, That pretty much solves the entire problem [03:01] option to include file in ubuntu tar? [03:01] TDJACR: So I would do something like "matlab -nodesktop && firefox www.mathworks.com", for instance, as the command for my launcher to run? [03:02] ok, so I have this mother board: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813500046 and I am unable to get sound out of any but two chanels, it seems that the onboard audio has some sort of soft switch that changes the function of the jacks [03:02] ACameron: A ; instead I believe [03:03] TDJACR: ..right; && would block until matlab completed, right? Also, how do I get the launcher to position & size the windows it opens? [03:03] anyone willing to help the wireless driver questions? [03:03] welshmen, here for ya [03:03] ACameron: I believe so and I'm not sure [03:05] TDJACR: Well, thanks. That's a start, anyway. =) [03:05] TDJACR: Perhaps the docs for compiz can tell me more... [03:05] cool, so i put BT4 on my laptop and knew that my broadcom won't work or would be a hassle but i found a driver and installed it rebooted and it was there, but when i came back to it today and booted up it was gone [03:05] welshmen, This is support for Ubuntu not Backtrack [03:05] welshmen, sorry! ;) [03:06] went through the same proess and can't seem to get it [03:06] ok sorry than [03:06] so any idea on my audio problem? [03:08] welshmen: backtrack isn't supported here [03:09] ok another question i have another laptop that today i put ubuntu on and the laptop is a touch screen, would there be any such drivers that would support that input [03:09] welshmen: what is the make and model, it's massively important [03:09] onekenthomas, tar --append --file=foo.tar bar.txt where foo.tar is the existing archive and bar.txt is what you want to add [03:09] hp tx2 touchsmart [03:11] welshmen: so you never found this: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1252492 [03:12] lexvegas, tks, I had just essentially figured --append is the only way to do what I want with gnu tar :) [03:12] hello [03:13] welshmen: i literally found that in 120 seconds.... [03:13] sorry but after i was told this was strictly and ubuntu chat it just popped in my head [03:13] i recently installed ubuntu side by side with windows 7 although i installed it on a diffrent drive coz i have two of them,i could get the network up and running [03:13] i installed 8.10.. [03:14] xe-dll: ubuntu 8.10? [03:14] is there something wrong with the way i installed it? [03:14] onekenthomas, no problem. i think you may be able to do something with the u option, but i couldn't find anything [03:14] i was not trying to lazy [03:14] xe-dll: 8.10 is two and a half years old. [03:14] ^ [03:14] welshmen: the forums are awash with handy guides like that, if you websearch a little before asking you'll probably find stuff. Ask here if you get stumped :) [03:15] yep 8.10 its he only cd that i have unfortunately..i know its a lil bit old..:) [03:15] Anyone have software raid, fs experience? [03:15] welshmen: you need not try to be lazy, it happens automatically ;). just do nothing [03:15] whats the best looking window manager?

[03:16] Tempus_Fugit: might be #compiz, but enough here if it's ubuntu specific [03:16] thanks pksadiq that does look pretty good [03:16] xe-dll: dollar tree now has 3pack 52x cd-rs for $1 [03:17] has anyone else upgraded to the newest distro of ubuntu......26 and had compiz stop working??

[03:19] no [03:19] Tempus_Fugit: are you using nvidia? [03:19] does your card support 3d acceleration? [03:20] touchsmart tx2 seems to have some issues with the Nvidia Ubuntu driver, AFAIK [03:21] pksadiq: not sure which card I have a dual boot but I hardly ever go into windows however before I did the upgrade all my effects worked fine...i.e cube and effects for open and minimize [03:23] Where can I get help on using Compiz? [03:23] I cannot get it to do the cube. [03:23] It was working before then stopped working. [03:23] I have another question as well....when I boot up, before I log in the appearance window pops up and I have to close it before I can log in [03:23] how do I get rid of that [03:24] Tempus_Fugit: try ls pci and find which it does [03:24] Tempus_Fugit: I mean lspci [03:24] j#suse === Spacewalker_ is now known as Spacewalker [03:25] pksadiq: 00:02.1 Display controller: Intel Corporation Mobile 4 Series Chipset Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 07) [03:25] Which kinda popups?

[03:47] knoppies: i know that now :D [03:47] only after like..30 minutes of fustration [03:47] lfmaoooo [03:47] ok, so, I have just installed 10.10 on a zotac nm10-a-e mobo and I cannot get the 5.1 sound [03:47] everything is case sensitive [03:47] LinuxNoob: try bash-completion [03:47] LinuxNoob, yea, some of us have been there too. [03:47] * brandon420 hates it [03:47] well. i dod formated my hdd, and linux is my only os [03:47] I just plugged in a usb stick and waited.. then did lsusb and it is recognized but not mounting.. how do I mount it? [03:47] LinuxNoob: but usually variables are named in capitals . try the export command and see some [03:48] i know how to use windows like a master pokemon trainer [03:48] now time to add over 11k songs to banshee =/ [03:48] !tab | LinuxNoob [03:48] LinuxNoob: You can use your key for autocompletion of nicknames in IRC, as well as for completion of filenames and programs on the command line. [03:48] ActionParsnip: that's /old/ ... see 8.04? even the one that says 386 is now 686 [03:48] hola. anybody know of a utility to view which mouse button is which when I click them? [03:48] o_o [03:48] yondering: xev [03:48] ActionParsnip: what is the difference between 386 and 686? [03:48] the way i installed it, was i Have to learn what im doing to do it, i cant go back to windows :D [03:48] trying to install from usb, but getting cannot mount cd-rom, ideas? [03:49] inless..i reinstall it ofcourse, which i wont do, inless i have to for a project for school lol [03:49] maco, that's the one I was looking for, thanks.. just couldn't remember the name. [03:49] whiteshadow, is the error from GRUB or the cd-rom? [03:49] need to disable the 'wobble' keys on this mouse. =/ [03:50] pksadiq: its a matter of what cpu instructions intel added at what point in history. cmov was added in i686, so UnderSampled probably has a i586 (which would be quite old) or a Via or some brand of thin client (which simply stuck with the old architecture very long) [03:50] LinuxNoob: if you use Only ubuntu for at least a week, M$ windows will look bad, especailly the scrolling techniques and ....... of ubuntu [03:50] LinuxNoob: also try virtualbox [03:50] does anyone know how to fix problem where CUPS printers are not shown in the print dialog (evince, firefox, etc...) ? [03:50] maco: is there something special with the naming/ [03:50] knoppies: i'm not using grub, i used univeral usb installer [03:50] LinuxNoob, you could use something like virtualbox to run windows (assuming your hardware is sufficient), or use WINE which enables you to run some windows apps on linux. [03:50] ive got xp,vista,7 cd's i dont need a vm [03:51] >switch to ubunt [03:51] >2 years later, visit windows 7 [03:51] i just am for lack of better quote, jumping in to linux and programming in general without knowhing how to swim [03:51] >cant find drivers for computer [03:51] lol [03:51] ive got an asus gaming labtop, it can run lots of stuff :D [03:51] whiteshadow, is the .iso supported by universal USB installer? [03:51] LinuxNoob: genuine? [03:52] linuxnoob: no offense to anyone here but the best OS for gaming is Win7 unless you love to mess with WINE [03:52] yeah my stuff is legit :) [03:52] whats the best media player for a large volume of music? (flac) [03:52] knoppies: yeah, it is supported, otherwise it wouldn't find the iso, i had trouble with it for a bit cuz i was selecting a desktop version when i had the server iso [03:52] father_longcat: #ubuntu is for Ubuntu technical support. Your opinions on Ubuntu vs. Windows 7 are not technical support. [03:52] yes. [03:52] im goin to school to be a CNT, i know windows, just never messed with linux [03:52] LinuxNoob, you could use your CDs to install the OS on a VM. You could also duel boot the two. Many people (including myself) do that. [03:52] but neither is stating "I have an asus laptop" [03:53] Have to agree with father ubuntu lts for servers FTW... [03:53] and ill need this for later on, when i do servers, as alot use UNIX [03:53] cnt? [03:53] ^ [03:53] pksadiq: um... 586 is newer than 386 nd 686 is newer than both? i mean...i think this corresponds to pre-pentium days [03:53] lts is great for servers [03:53] brandon420: mpd [03:53] maco: Undersampled has a AMD-K6(tm)-2/300 [03:53] brandon420: or vlc :) [03:53] knoppies: http://ohioloco.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1550317&highlight=mount+cd-rom i think i'm supposed mount my cd-rom as the usb, but i can't seem to understand those directions, sort of linux noob [03:53] maco: which was released in 1998 [03:53] --keeps pokeing about my audio problems in the futal hope that I will find myself on the top of the stack-- [03:53] 386>586>686 [03:53] i plan on getting my CCNA [03:53] =/ [03:53] if you have a computer that still runs, it is 686 class [03:53] maco: then why the numbering is in the reverse order? any ideas? [03:53] descending order of set [03:53] I mean [03:53] fool_, there isnt anything like foobar, or winamp [03:53] ? [03:54] it went from 386 to 586 [03:54] and then to 686 [03:54] pksadiq: 386 is the old 8082 CPUs. 686 includes Pentium 3 CPUs and higher (from what I remember) [03:54] Used to run centos now run lts on just about everything. [03:54] question guys, i tried to make a windows batch file(for cmd) and he couldnt open it [03:54] any date when 11.04 is releasing? [03:54] the naming is a bit confusing [03:54] brandon420: there are many players, you just have to try them all [03:54] !schedule-#ubuntu+1 | father_longcat [03:54] father_longcat: A schedule of Natty Narwhal (11.04) release milestones can be found here: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/NattyReleaseSchedule [03:54] father_longcat: april [03:54] UnderSampled: k6-2 is a 586. amd apparently kept it for a very long time [03:54] father_longcat, april 2011 [03:54] I mean the real release date, not beta [03:54] LinuxNoob: define he [03:54] brandon420: personally i use vlc/mpd [03:54] UnderSampled: even some thin clients being manufactured *now* are still 586. maybe its a cheaper architecture to produce *shrug* [03:55] LinuxNoob: you will need notepad++ to thn resave it as Linux uses different CR characters to Linux [03:55] windows user [03:55] thanks [03:55] gotcha [03:55] father_longcat: the wiki schedule page has the release date also. [03:55] thank you again. [03:55] i had to explain it to him over msnger === bencahill is now known as bencahill_ [03:55] father_longcat: by definition, 11.04 is april 2011. if it was in may, it'd be 11.05 [03:55] UnderSampled: the k6 claimed to be a 686 but it actually wasnt fully compliant with the 686 spec [03:55] he wanted a prank he could do to his moms computer, so i wrote him one [03:55] fool_, i have over 11k songs, i need something that will organize it all for me, lol. i know vlc doesnt do that, not sure about mpd, but imma give it a try [03:55] . [03:55] UnderSampled: this is what the google is telling me [03:55] yes. [03:55] .** [03:55] oic [03:55] can i use icon themes from gnome to xfce? [03:55] month, year. [03:56] ljsoftnet: yes [03:56] . [03:56] whiteshadow, I can suggest using a tool which mounts the drive using GRUB legacy and then trying to follow what that guy said in the forum post. [03:56] anyone know why rsync -r --delete doesn't work within a script? [03:56] brandon420: mpd takes a little to set up, but once it runs it's very nice :) [03:56] brandon420: what about mplayer or rhythm box? [03:56] okay which ftp program is better filezillia or vsftpd [03:56] haha sorry ive got dyslexia [03:56] xangua how about gtk themes? [03:56] maco: I'm guessing that it doesn't matter, because I'm burning 10.04 anyway [03:56] brandon420: my ~/music is about 80gb as of now :) [03:56] ljsoftnet: yes [03:56] If your going for CCNA take a look at vyatta and tell your instructor about that and watch his face drop lol. [03:56] mine is >250gb [03:56] rewineland, I use nautilus for some basic ftp, but its probably not what you are looking for. [03:56] xangua ah thanks man [03:56] good question fool_: how much of it is legal? [03:56] knoppies: sure, i don't wanna waste anymore time installing this thing, what's the other good installer, unetbootin? [03:56] fool_: my whole hard disk is ~80 GB :O [03:57] father_longcat: not much [03:57] pksadiq, rhythm box crashes when i try to add that much music at once. and mplayer is about like vlc [03:57] i am just looking for control someusers and there access to files [03:57] father_longcat: define legal :) [03:57] ~/music/ is 507 GB [03:57] fool_: RIAA sucks anyways [03:57] sorry if anyone was talking to me I was away for a few [03:57] --keeps pokeing about my audio problems in the futal hope that I will find myself on the top of the stack-- [03:57] father_longcat, what media player you use? [03:57] whiteshadow, no, I used the multi-iso thing from pendrivelinux, I forget what its called, Let me find it for you. You will have to edit the menu.lst, but otherwise it should work. [03:57] brandon420: tried deabbeef? [03:57] MPC-HC [03:58] fool_: size is not a matter, how much of that do you hear? [03:58] deadbeef sorry [03:58] whiteshadow, http://www.pendrivelinux.com/boot-multiple-iso-from-usb-multiboot-usb/ [03:58] knoppies: gonna give that a shot, be back in 5 [03:59] whiteshadow, I suggest you install some small .iso (other than your server one, we will do that manually) then copy your server.iso onto the root of the flash drive. Then we will need to edit the menu.lst [03:59] ActionParsnip, imma try that now [03:59] one day.... [03:59] seens kegut' [03:59] legit [03:59] we will invent the self-extracting TARball [03:59] Pendrive is good stuff [04:00] whiteshadow, 64 or 32bit? Because that doesn't seem to have the 64bit under the options, but I think you can use it anyway. [04:00] knoppies: Does your system support 64 bits? [04:01] WHYYYYYYY [04:01] so no ideas on a good ftp server [04:01] must all the good shit be a bitch to install?! [04:01] KB1JWQ, yes it does, Im talking about a tool that puts .iso files onto a USB flash drive. [04:01] rewineland, ubuntu server comes with one [04:01] For the tool itself, shouldn't matter. [04:01] can I somehow run .sh files by doubleclicking on them? [04:01] Proftpd for the win. [04:01] brandon420: keep it family friendly please [04:01] m_fulder: set them executable [04:01] yes but i am looking for easy setup [04:02] ultrabizweb2: openssh-server is a more secure method ;) [04:02] m_fulder, yes, in gnome I can. You need to set them as executable first. chmod u+x [04:02] !permissions | m_fulder [04:02] m_fulder: An explanation of what file permissions are and how they can be manipulated can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FilePermissions [04:02] Hey, I am having a little problem. I have the ATI Radeon IGP 330m/340m/350m video card in my HP Pavilion ze5604rs notebook. I have looked over the net all day and cant find drivers for ubuntu. Does anyone know where i could find drivers? Thanks in advance! [04:02] rewineland: vsftpd [04:02] Yes it is I use it too scp and sftp [04:02] !ati | drue_ [04:02] drue_: For Ati/NVidia/Matrox video cards, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto [04:03] rewineland: nothing much easier than apt-get install openssh-server [04:03] I have that already but I want multipl users that will not be on my system [04:03] pksadiq, Thanks! [04:03] I've already set my permission to +x but still I can't run it ... I mean making it executable it only shows me a window where I can choose to edit my script run in terminal etc... but while I choose run in terminal nothing happends :S @ lahwran & knoppies [04:03] carlson i'll look into it [04:03] --keeps pokeing about my no 5.1 sound on a zotac nm10-a-e problems in the futal hope that I will find myself on the top of the support stack-- [04:03] I use virtualmin install script simple and effective. [04:04] Does use more ram for gui though. [04:04] ultrabizweb2: so why run an ftp server as well as sftp? [04:04] m_fulder, does your script have the #!/bin/bash (I think its called a shabang or something) [04:04] rewineland: well you said you wanted something that needed no account, so maybe ssh wouldn't be as easy for that [04:04] m_fulder: you might have to change the first line , what is it now #! .......? [04:04] knoppies, yes it has [04:04] For legacy support [04:05] pksadiq, its #!/bin/bash [04:05] Most of the time I use scp [04:05] yeahhh [04:05] I have a developer or 2 that uses it. [04:05] deadbeef is 100% legit [04:05] m_fulder, then Im not sure what your issue is then. Is it possible that the script works its just so quick you dont see the terminal?? [04:06] m_fulder: might be you need to change it to #!/bin/terminal -e or what ever your terminals path is and try double click [04:06] Hello, anyone here? [04:06] knoppies, the script should open up new terminal windows and while run directly from terminal I can see them open with 1 sec between them === windkids is now known as windGone [04:06] JoseeAntonioR, there are alot of people here [04:06] !question [04:06] Please don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line and in the channel, so that others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) [04:06] pksadiq, oki will try that :) [04:06] yeah, pveople are heree [04:07] m_fulder, Im stumped then. Sorry I couldn't help. [04:07] =/ I need to intall glib2.5 or higher, but apparently the highest glib is 2.26 via the repos? [04:07] ActionParsnip, i think i love you [04:07] brandon420: deadbeef is not in the repos but it's light on resources and pretty sweet [04:07] knoppies, np, thank you anyway :D [04:07] Or, atleast, when going apt-get install libglib2.0 [04:07] brandon420: hehehhee [04:07] Can I ask a question? [04:07] pksadiq, -e or -c didn't help :( [04:07] Hahahaha [04:07] virtus, get it from their website [04:07] Tulio: sure, ask away [04:07] Please tell me you're not THAT far behind [04:07] does anyone know how to fix problem where CUPS printers are not shown in the print dialog (evince, firefox, etc...) ? [04:07] !question | Tulio [04:07] Tulio: Please don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line and in the channel, so that others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) [04:07] anone ? [04:07] :/ [04:08] Just joking, the bot already said [04:08] fool_, have you added the printer using System->admin->printing? [04:08] m_fulder: is the path to terminal right? [04:09] Jesus christ =/ [04:09] It's like dependancy hell INSIDE UBUNTU [04:09] knoppies: acroread prints fine [04:09] ActionParsnip, deadbeef is awesome! you can change anything to your likings! this is what i was looking for! woot! [04:09] Apparently it needs glib-2.0 -- When I have 2.26 [04:09] I have a problem with Pidgin, it signs me in, and then it disables my account because it says I have connected in another place, and when I re-enable it, the same thing happens. [04:09] knoppies: it's evince/firefox/otherbrowsers/ that does not show the printers in the print dialog [04:09] very weird [04:09] brandon420: it uses a heck of a lot les resources too. it was considered for lubuntu [04:09] pksadiq, what do you mean my path to the terminal :P [04:10] virtus: you're doing it wrong [04:10] JoseeAntonioR, it seems that your signed in somewhere else.... [04:10] I have an issue with notify-osd. When I have a wine virtual desktop on a separate workspace, it suppresses notification bubbles from coming up as if it's a full screen app. [04:10] jrib: Of course I am. [04:10] Either tell me 'how' or, don't adress me. [04:10] Please. [04:10] brandon420 No. [04:10] virtus: start from the beginning. Why do you think you need this version of glib? [04:10] ActionParsnip, thats just a plus =) quad core baybee [04:10] jrib: For screem. -- A editor. [04:10] brandon420: i dont follow [04:10] Says 'You need Glib 2.5 or higher' when compiling. [04:10] So, naturally. I try apt-get, then synaptic [04:11] JoseeAntonioR, pidgin doesnt lie. try signing in with www.meebo.com sometimes meebo will kick where ever you are signed in at. [04:11] virtus: screen isn't an editor, but moving on... glib-2.0 is just the package *name*. the version is 2.26 [04:11] ^doing something horribly wrong [04:11] Nothing. Go to the site, highest glib there is 2.27 -- I go to the GTK+ part- [04:11] m_fulder: try which terminal command , you might see the path [04:11] Screem. Learn to read. [04:11] ActionParsnip, lol, means im not worried about using resources, i have more then enough [04:11] the xwininfo and xprop for my wine desktop are at http://pastebin.com/YZCzAVFJ if anyone knows what to look for [04:11] Rember editing apt sources can be your friend. [04:11] do they make a app in the ubuntu software center thats like "ubuntu for dummies" or "so easy a kindergardener can do it" [04:11] brandon420: ahhh i see, i have spare but always use lightweight stuff so the OS is snappier [04:12] brandon420 I have already tried, and it works normally. [04:12] hmmmmsss [04:12] JoseeAntonioR, you try it with empthy? [04:12] brandon420: You around here breda? [04:12] Ubuntu is the easiest. [04:12] maco: You're saying there is no 2.5? 'Cause, this is becoming stupid. [04:12] Tulio, sup mane [04:12] just how i roll, its not right or wrong, just my bag :) [04:12] knoppies: LOL, well, i didn't even bother using the multiboot thing cuz i'm super lazy, and decided to just drop the .iso onto the root of the usb (after i had formatted it with universal usb inst) and followed those directions, it works :) [04:12] what is the file I need to copy to make a new user's shell experience like my original users? (I mean the new user has no tab completion and such) [04:12] brandon420 Empathy doesn't shows my contact list. [04:12] knoppies: not done with the install though, i'll let you know [04:13] Mane? How did ya called me? [04:13] virtus, why dont you just dwonload from their website? [04:13] or is the fullscreen flag necessary for the virtual desktop to go overtop of gnome-panel? [04:13] anyone? [04:13] AbhijiT: Again. If you would read - Highest on their site is 2.27 [04:13] whiteshadow, awesome. Im glad you are winning. [04:13] JoseeAntonioR, it seems like there is something wrong with your account, maybe try making a new one to test it with? that would let you know if it is your account, or client. [04:13] virtus: im saying 2.26 is WAY NEWER than 2.5 so should be dandy [04:13] configure: error: [04:13] *** GLIB 2.5.6 or better is required. The latest version of [04:13] Tulio, hahah, yeah. [04:13] virtus, what is this http://ftp.gnome.org/pub/GNOME/sources/glib/2.25/ [04:13] duckwars: ~/.bashrc [04:13] virtus: you need -dev packages to compile things [04:14] fool_: thank you [04:14] duckwars: as well as many other ~/.dotfiles [04:14] jrib: Why? That sounds very inconvenient [04:14] virtus, what is this http://ftp.se.debian.org/pub/gnome/sources/glib/2.5/ [04:14] virtus: erm, because users do not usually need to compile things [04:14] virtus: because -dev packages have headers [04:14] =( my eq only goes down to 55hz [04:14] brandon420 I use MSN Messenger, and I have two accounts. The two of them have the same issue. [04:14] virtus: you cant compile against binaries [04:14] Well. I have both. [04:14] virtus: what do you have exactly? [04:14] apt-get install build-essentails I think? [04:15] libglib2.0-dev is already the newest version. [04:15] virtus: it tells the compiler and libraries how to talk to the binarys when they run, its pretty inconvenient though, especially when compiling huge things like X or gnome [04:15] JoseeAntonioR, have you tried reinstalling pidgin? [04:15] virtus, answer me? [04:15] virtus: then tell your configure script to stop being silly? [04:15] JoseeAntonioR: don't login in the online client [04:15] AbhijiT: Shh. I'm dealing with people actually helping me. [04:15] jrib, i gave him location to download 2.5 [04:15] JoseeAntonioR: update pidgin === Newa2 is now known as NewaWrk [04:15] JoseeAntonioR: there's a pidgin developers ppa with a later version [04:15] jrib: Wish I could. 'Tis bein' very rude. [04:15] AbhijiT: he'll just break things if he starts compiling glib :/ [04:15] brandon420 When I reinstalled it, the issue was solved. Now I have reinstalled two times and nothing. [04:16] hmm :/ [04:16] JoseeAntonioR, 1 sec. i am going to try something on my end. it may be msn, it messes up alot on me. [04:16] ActionParsnip: Already done that, nothing. [04:16] JoseeAntonioR: bah [04:17] does anybody know how i can get notify-osd bubbles to show up with a wine virtual desktop, and still have the desktop obscure the gnome-panel? xwininfo/xprop on the desktop at http://pastebin.com/YZCzAVFJ [04:17] voidmage: have you asked in #winehq [04:18] ActionParsnip: i haven't because notify-osd is an ubuntu thing [04:18] voidmage: i guess [04:18] suppose i could ask in #winehq as well [04:19] What package installs test-mpeg2?

[05:19] will I be assimilated? [05:19] father_longcat: Assistance is futile. [05:19] qreezy it could also be due to GNOME.

[05:21] Yes you can. [05:21] I'm using it right now. [05:21] would reinstalling the driver work [05:21] Dead_Storage: so use "locate conky" and look for that file..

[05:24] Bop: you can try this but there might be easier ways with a gui someplace http://pkeck.myweb.uga.edu/ssh/ [05:24] do the cpu spikes mean anything? or is the ubuntu gui resource monitor just slow?

[05:25] My machine is using a VIA Chipset and I have no issue. [05:25] xgt001, the open source nvidia driver is great. If you never plan on doing anything at all with your hardware (3D for example) [05:25] otherwise it's a pos [05:25] shcherbak, Oh how can you not love the linux, support is wonderful, thanks again :) [05:25] phillip: grow a pair and buy a real chipset [05:25] I have an entire via mainboard and have no issues [05:25] philip__: because 9 out of 10 times you need to form an xorg.conf file and often they either don't do 3D or do it badly [05:25] nisstyre ... yeah .. i was referring to official nvidia drivers [05:26] VIA killed mah pa! [05:26] < 190$ [05:26] xgt001, those are closed source [05:26] philip__: I had a via sound card that made sound but never recorded, I worked for weeks to find a solution gave up get a new card, thumbs down for me and via chips [05:26] I haven't had a single problem with that on my end. [05:26] 4545415 [05:26] You know what i hate? When people ask what distr and you answer - "Ubuntu" they start laughing and saying that you are noob [05:26] Realtech/via here. [05:26] what happened to the compiz cube deformation thing in the compiz config manager? [05:26] it's stupid [05:26] Bop: might be easier to just remove then reinstall openssh [05:27] okay, thanks guys, my videos seem to be running well in firefox now. but i wonder why offline video in any media player still lags even after closing all instances of google chrome? don't the memory leaks clear up after the processes are killed? [05:27] Ivis: nice, thanks. [05:27] just google "nvidia issue 10.10" and u will get dozens in the ubuntu forum [05:27] I try to play angrybirds on my ubuntu labtop it's not work [05:27] Loshki, i know that , but i dont have the filesystem mounted [05:27] Ivis: let them, it changes nothing [05:27] Loshki, its on rescue mode on /mnt [05:27] xgt001, I have no problems with the latest nvidia drivers [05:27] Ivis: tell them you run Suicide Linux on a headless terminal. [05:27] must be a problem with gnome or something [05:27] :D [05:27] or the default xorg configuration [05:28] nisstyre : are u using 10.10 [05:28] Ivis: That distro thing is partly true... [05:28] xgt001, I'm on Arch [05:28] 'sudo nvidia xconfig' [05:28] Ivis: http://qntm.org/suicide [05:28] Hello. Does anyone speak Russian? [05:28] nvidia 260.19.36-1 [05:28] Ivis: or find a really obscure distro like Chakra [05:28] Nisstyre: Arch is rpm based i guessed [05:28] zerokl: /join #ubuntu-ru [05:28] xgt001, no [05:28] Ivis: they'll be all like "huh?" [05:29] rww Thank you :) [05:29] thorbj0rn, ohh :D:D [05:29] Nisstyre: debian????!!!! [05:29] xgt001, it's similar to crux [05:29] xgt001: Arch uses neither .deb nor .rpm for packages. It has its own thing. [05:29] thorbj0rn: sl [05:30] rww, it uses the basic package format, .pkg.tar.xz [05:30] just compressed archives [05:30] rww: cooool i gotta try that.. i thought all used either rpm or deb [05:30] anyway [05:30] i mean i have installed gentoo in terminal mode, arch linux etc... but i choose ubuntu for many reasons and becouse it's easy to use doesn't mean that you are end-user or else... :D [05:30] Bop: from http://www.symantec.com/connect/articles/ssh-host-key-protection: ssh-keygen -t rsa /etc/ssh/ssh_host_rsa_key # ssh-keygen -t dsa /etc/ssh/ssh_host_dsa_key # ssh-keygen -t rsa1 /etc/ssh/ssh_host_key [05:30] the problem isn't with the nvidia drivers [05:30] Nisstyre: I use Arch fairly extensively. Great system to tinker with, for one. [05:30] it's with ubuntu [05:30] Nisstyre: Arch(ives) ? [05:31] who would ahve thought [05:31] rww: doesn't it use burritos? [05:31] Ivis: totally, gentoo teaches a LOT === rogerzanoni is now known as albtraum [05:31] On 10.04 server, sudo command does not require password. I've tried to put PASSWD:ALL in /etc/sudoers, but no difference. How can I check it to require sudo password? [05:32] ActionParsnip, after painfull couple day reading manual i finally start understand how kernel works and so on... [05:32] s/check/change/ [05:32] pragma_: burritos? [05:32] tomoyuki28jp: by default, sudo doesn't ask for your password if you've supplied it within the last N minutes (I forget how many, maybe 10). [05:32] tomoyuki28jp, I thought the default was to require a password? Also, I hope you're not editing the sudoers file directly [05:32] use visudo [05:32] Ivis: since using Ubuntu, I devepled very sneaky method of copy/paste (how to's), but lost ability/ambition to read... [05:32] rww: Nisstyre: I see, thanks! [05:32] but Ubuntu is the distro which beats even windows when it comes to user friendliness and consistency [05:32] xgt001: beats how? [05:33] Yeah, I'd question that statement. [05:33] xgt001: not [05:33] shcherbak, copy/paste (how to's) ? [05:33] Loshki, Too many arguments. [05:33] @all: i am speaking abt my own experience which may differ from person to person [05:34] Bop: ? [05:34] give-me that error [05:34] cant understand why [05:34] xgt001: thats fine [05:34] i have tried Ubuntu , Fedora,Opensuse, PClinuxOS, puppyLinux, Mandriva [05:34] I am using a dual 1080p monitor setup on ubuntu 10.04. I would like to have one monitor in landscape and one monitor in portrait, however this option vanishes in the Monitor Preferences unless I have "Same image in all monitors" checked. Is there a way around this? [05:34] People tell me please I want to start using ubuntu how to install a better version of me? [05:34] but Ubuntu suited me the most [05:34] And what's is the greatest part of all this - community i always liked linux people they are different i think you know what im saying :) [05:34] ubuntu is the best [05:35] Arty: in some ways yes, in others not [05:35] Ivis: with this mass of user base, most of problems are solved, so developing method of transfering web content to console issue, but this is exactly why i use Ubuntu. [05:35] * rww notes that #ubuntu-offtopic is available for non-support discussions ;) [05:35] i have a hp dv6 laptop with 4 primary partitions: system, windows, recovery drive, hp tools. I want to dualboot it but can't have anymore primary drives, any solution beside only booting ubuntu or formating whole drive? [05:35] Arty: Blanket statements are typically the realm of the ill-informed. Best at what? [05:35] rww: ;) [05:35] Bop: you understand it's meant to be 3 lines of text, right? [05:35] Loshki, yeah , i know [05:35] Loshki, i've just inserted first one [05:35] best for my use [05:35] Zerokl: you might end up having to edit your config manually :/ [05:35] shcherbak, ahh understand [05:36] Arty: And what use is that? [05:36] Arty: that qualifies it a bit better [05:37] Programing , Social network , ETC. [05:37] Bop: you're right! Mine too. Please stand by... [05:37] hello. I have question about ubuntu on my Asus netbook. After I shutdown, Ubuntu will switch off my wifi card so that when I turn the netbook on again I need to go into the bios to enable the wifi card again. Is there a way to prevent Ubuntu from not turning off the wifi card on shutdown? [05:37] Can someone please suggest compilator for C# ? === Kasjopaja23 is now known as Kasjopaja === Kasjopaja is now known as Guest2810 [05:38] !info mono-mcs [05:38] mono-mcs (source: mono): Mono C# 1.0 compiler for CLI 1.1.

[05:39] Bop: looks like you need to add '-f' before the filename e.g. ssh-keygen -t rsa -f /etc/ssh/ssh_host_rsa_key [05:39] just force architect . [05:39] where is the option to make the compiz "cube" a sphere? it used to be there, but not anymore...... [05:39] sacarlson, /mnt is my filesystem , im on rescue mode [05:39] but i've manually installed a telnet server [05:39] as failsafe [05:40] zerokl: What versions are you considering? [05:40] is google chrome better than firefox? [05:40] Bop: I guess you could turn keys off in ssh also if it's the server side [05:40] in terms of memory management and speed [05:40] Someone can tell about RAMDisk [05:41] seems already twice as fast [05:41] @qreezy: yeah [05:41] hi I have installed a program called "enfuse", but it's stripped, and I would like to debug it [05:41] what am I supposed to do? [05:41] hah, google isnt perfect! [05:41] i use chromium and its more than double speed [05:41] zerokl: " cat /etc/lsb-release " to see your version info [05:42] is chromium coded by google [05:42] qreezy: i find it chews fewer resources personally [05:42] qreezy xgt001 opera with turbo enables is faster, don't go too much !offtopic here ;) [05:42] qreezy- not to me [05:42] could someone that is running bind9 on ubuntu explain this... this is from a client within my network http://pastebin.com/USAf28mU [05:42] katphive I see 2 version. ubuntu 10.04 and ubuntu 10.10 [05:43] hello. I have question about ubuntu on my Asus netbook. After I shutdown, Ubuntu will switch off my wifi card so that when I turn the netbook on again I need to go into the bios to enable the wifi card again. Is there a way to prevent Ubuntu from not turning off the wifi card on shutdown? [05:43] Opera turbo not fast for me [05:43] qreezy: chromium also precaches DNS while you read, making it faster there [05:43] dschuett: What about it are you questioning? [05:43] thanks everyone for the help, gotta run! :) [05:43] dschuett: looks like google's dns server [05:43] It's connect to Opera server before load web page [05:43] xangua: i am going offtopic because i am learning way more stuff here :-D.... but chromium was in ubuntu repos by default (not chrome)so i tried tat [05:43] katphive: if i do a nslookup through googles public dns it still resolves my INTERNAL hosts even after flushing dns [05:44] dschuett: Some routers intercept DNS requests if they look like they're destined for LAN hosts. [05:44] thorbj0rn ^^ [05:44] katphive: even ubuntu running bind? [05:45] rad_sci_guy: you might be able to turn it on with rfkill command, if so then you might add that in a script at boot [05:45] dschuett: you can run a local dns service on the system like dnsmasq and make dns resolution take 0ms rather than 50ms or so [05:45] katphive i am using an ubuntu server box with two nics as my router which is running iptables and bind/dhcp [05:45] dschuett: Depends on its configuration, I think. Google would reject a request for a host that's not an FQDN or something similar. [05:46] how can i install the compiz "extra plugin" package? [05:46] dschuett: Also, if the system's running BIND, it's going to try using its own internal resolver FIRST - which means that BIND is going to resolve your host before it ever kicks it out to Google. [05:46] katphive: yeah, i know it isn't actually google that is resolving it...i just wish i knew HOW it was doing it.. [05:46] How bad is this? sudo apt-get autoremove python [05:46] dschuett: Check your /etc/resolv.conf [05:46] hello [05:46] dschuett: I know that nslookup is SUPPOSED to use the specified server for DNS resolution, but who knows. [05:47] spikku: VERY [05:47] katphive: try: dig www.yahoo.com [05:47] brandon: Ubuntu software center, there u type compiz-plugins-extra [05:47] sacarlson: how do you turn it on with a rfkill command? [05:48] or even this will work i guess sudo apt-get compiz-fusion-plugins-extra [05:48] ActionParsnip, haha, autoremove seems to act differently then I interpreted the documentation === windkids is now known as windGone [05:48] katphive: get this as well... if i manually set my client to use some random ip for its dns it still resolves....? [05:48] dschuett: Haven't the foggiest. I haven't run BIND in a long time. [05:48] sorry the latter wont work [05:49] dschuett: And I'm a little fuzzy from lack of sleep. On that note, g'night all. [05:49] but Ubuntu software cnter must be fine [05:49] katphive...thanks for your input. [05:49] dschuett: Sure, however brain damaged it might be. :P [05:49] xgt001: That's because it's 'apt-get install blah' not 'apt-get blah' [05:50] katphive : thanks :-D [05:50] i'm having trouble installing Glib 2.26.1 [05:50] * katphive @derps, "I'm useful, yaaay!" [05:50] any1 testing natty alpha 2 over here???? [05:50] i keep getting a make error [05:50] xgt001: No, how is that, anyway? [05:51] have to download that ... i am on alpha1 yet [05:51] alpha1 is pretty stable... (unity is almost unusable in alpha 1 :P) [05:52] gnome (now called as Ubuntu Classic Desktop) is very stable except for a couple of buggs [05:52] xgt001: you could ask in #ubuntu+1 [05:52] @rigved: thanks for the info [05:53] xgt001: :) [05:53] help please with this [05:53] http://paste.pound-python.org/show/2521/ === belak_ is now known as belak51 [05:55] xgt001: putting alpha2 lubuntu on my lappy on sunday, should be ok [05:56] can u tell me the differences b/w lubuntu and ubuntu [05:56] pylix, try removing the space in "New Folder" or rename new folder without spaces [05:56] lubuntu is lxde i guess?? [05:56] okay [05:56] xgt001: yes [05:56] pylix: New\ Folder [05:57] spaces need escapes [05:57] xgt001: ubuntu uses gnome + compiz/metacity by default, Lubuntu uses LXDE + openbox and is drastically lighter even than Xubuntu [05:57] i took out the space [05:57] pylix: easier [05:57] differences btween gnome,lxde and xfce pls :) [05:57] pylix, and any luck? [05:58] gonna re ./configure first [05:58] then try make [05:58] yep [05:58] xgt001: base apps and reasources used [05:58] When System Monitor 2.30.0 says 22% memory used as cache, is that essentially prefetch like on windows? [05:58] xgt001: you can install gnome apps in LXDE if you wish [05:58] compiz wont work in lxde??? [05:59] hilarie: can u tell the system conig [05:59] *config [05:59] Ubuntu 10.10? [05:59] xgt001: sure will, its a bit weird though, using a light desktop like LXDE then adding fat old compiz... [05:59] xgt001: gnome, kde, xfce, lxde are window managers [05:59] on an HP DV7 1129 WM [05:59] i mean ur ram, cpu [05:59] thorbj0rn: no [06:00] thorbj0rn: they're desktop environments [06:00] what he said. [06:00] hilarie: yes, your kernel will use the ram as disk cache, unused ram is wasted ram [06:00] thorbj0rn: metacity, kwin, xfwm, and openbox are window managers. [06:00] 4gb of ram (3.6 for memory and the rest for VideoRam) [06:00] thorbj0rn: gnome's window manager is metacity. kde's is kwin. xfce's is xfwm4, and at least in lubuntu lxde uses openbox for a window manager [06:00] @thorbj0rn: diff bw xfce and lxde??? [06:00] I am faster than the maco. [06:00] rww: im more specific [06:00] @actionparsnip would it be possible to turn it up? so it would use closer to 50% as cache? [06:00] rww: however you are a he [06:01] xgt001: you can find out more than we can tell you with a few simple websearches [06:01] and compiz is a window manager or a windw decoratot??? === xyclo is now known as help [06:01] *decorator [06:01] xgt001: window manager === help is now known as xyclo [06:01] exit [06:01] xgt001: gtk-window-decorator and kde-window-decorator are supported decorators for compiz [06:01] similar error http://paste.pound-python.org/show/2522/ [06:02] xgt001: emerald is an old unmaintained and unsupported decorator for what existed /before/ compiz-fusion (beryl) that you may occasionally find references to [06:02] maco: ok.... if i use compiz effects like cube etc... it replaces metacity or will it just display the effects inside metacity??? [06:03] xgt001: replaces [06:03] hilarie: not sure, if you set vm.swappines = 0 in /etc/sysctl.conf it will keep apps in ram rather than swapping out to swap [06:03] pylix: ...the library `Folder/glib-2.26.1/glib/lib... looks like it is still looking for "New Folder" somewhere [06:03] xgt001: gtk-window-decorator ensures that it maintains your theme though [06:03] xgt001: thats why you run: compiz --replace to get compiz stated [06:03] how do i fix that? [06:04] * jonnyboi anyone know about gnome shell support for 11.04 [06:04] pylix rename NewFolder as just Folder [06:04] ok in the desktop effects.. if i choose normal/none it uses metacity and if i choose extra then it runs compiz am i correct [06:04] @actionParsnip where would I do that at? or if my swap space is never used, is that not happening? [06:04] gnome 2.32 in 11.04 [06:04] pylix: rename 'New Folder' to 'NewFolder'...without the quotes [06:04] sigh, thanks, any chance of ppa support? [06:04] jonnyboi: it'll be in a PPA, yes. [06:04] but gnome 3 will be included in the software center [06:04] :D [06:04] i already did [06:04] g_0_0: it might be mis-parsing the line to "New" "Folder/... etcetcetc" [06:05] hilarie: like I said, in /etc/sysctl.conf [06:05] thorbj0rn, I think it's expecting NewFolder to be called just Folder [06:05] pylix: what is the top of the tree that you are trying to compile? what application? [06:05] i´m gonna re-extract the source without the folder altogether [06:05] Another question, I remember dell was going to release an ubuntu laptop but it fell through due to the 6 month release cycle [06:05] thorbj0rn, we already renamed it NewFolder [06:05] glib 2.26.1 [06:05] any chance that there will be a rolling release ubuntu? [06:05] similar to what mint is doing? [06:05] jonnyboi: no [06:06] jonnyboi: mint rolling is debian based i guess [06:06] jonnyboi: Dell ships Ubuntu laptops, and Ubuntu is not going to become rolling release. [06:06] jonnyboi: miint is now debian based which is a rolling release [06:06] g_0_0: yeah, but the script might still have a "New Folder" in there somewhere [06:06] pylix: that not an application that a lib, what application is it you plan to run it with? [06:06] they do? In the US [06:06] thorbj0rn, possibly but we haven't seen the makefile, worth a try just to rename it [06:06] jonnyboi: http://www.dell.co.uk/ubuntu [06:07] I'm also a gentoo/arch user but I was wondering if ubuntu would go rolling release similar to mint [06:07] oh i need the dependency to get gtk+2.22.1 [06:07] pylix: pastbin makefile? [06:07] no no... ubuntu will be 6 month cycle [06:07] jonnyboi: sorry: http://www.ubuntu.com/dell [06:07] the whole thing? [06:08] pylix: i suggest restarting the make process by forcing it to start fresh, instead of using the cached files [06:08] thanks, and the next LTS version is 12.04? [06:08] pylix: gtk_2.22.1 is also a lib, what application on top top top of that? [06:08] jonnyboi: yes [06:08] hi, when trying to compile rawstudio I get an error about not being able to find glib.h, but I already installed libglib2.0-dev, and I did apt-get build-dep rawstudio - it seems like a lot of include directories are missing to the gcc command, what should I do? [06:08] rolling release requires us to break our heads over broken packages :D (thats wat i guess) :P [06:08] 12.04 will be LTS :) [06:08] xfce 4.8 [06:09] hmm, I know with arch/gentoo you have to merge config files with new updates [06:09] I suspect it would be too hard for common users to do manually [06:09] not sure how mint is going to pull it off [06:09] ya ... thats the reason [06:10] is it possible to login to ssh as the mysql user? [06:10] but mint have seperate editions for lxde, xfce, kde, gnome (ubuntu) and gnome (debian which is rolling) [06:10] Can we move the general OS talk to #ubuntu-offtopic, please? [06:11] pylix: well even that's a lib, but there are already ppa in 10.04 and 10.10 for that http://www.webupd8.org/2011/01/xfce-48-ubuntu-1004-and-1010-ppas.html [06:11] rww: can i update my current ubuntu install offline??? === skpl is now known as rodimus [06:12] what is a ppa?

It installs packages that are newer in your current version's repositories than on your computer. [06:14] yeah .. but wats that [06:15] xgt001: "man aptitude" [06:15] are synaptic , ubuntu software center and aptitude independent ??? [06:15] the reason i used a folder was cause i didn't think the extract would make one [06:15] xgt001: they're different frontends to the same package management system.

[06:19] i'm not chatting.... [06:19] Abhinav1: nope [06:19] i use my cell nokia 6600 to connect to the internet and i use bluetooth to connect for pc .... but i tried both ubuntu 10.04 and 10.10 both seem to hate my cel..............they dont even pair with my cell :( [06:20] xgt001: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BluetoothDialup [06:20] but it works flawlessly in 11.04 !!! [06:20] use 11.04 then [06:20] thats eating my headoff! [06:21] dude 11.04 is in alpha stage... (incomplete distro!!) [06:22] #ubuntu is for released versions of Ubuntu. Try #ubuntu+1 for natty discussion. [06:22] xgt001: then make your call, which is more important.. [06:22] rww : there is no one online in #ubuntu+1 :( [06:23] xgt001, then be patient === jonnyboi is now known as jonnyboy [06:23] xgt001: probably because people keep asking #ubuntu+1 questions in other channels. [06:23] xgt001, its offtopic here [06:24] ok... :) any ideas about connecting nokia 6600 via bluetooth to Ubuntu 10.10 /10.04 for net connection???? [06:24] get the packages that are updated in 11.04 and add them to your 10.10 install [06:25] Mixing packages from different versions of Ubuntu is not supported in this channel. [06:25] xgt001: http://www.abttech.com/connecting-internet-in-ubuntu-using-mobile-as-modem-via-bluetooth-or-datacable/ [06:25] SoulPropagation1, supremely bad advice [06:26] i agree with bazhang ... will break lots of packages.... [06:26] actionparsnip: i tried it ... doesnt work :( [06:26] xgt001: could just wait 2 months [06:28] it works with 11.04's packages; it doesn't work with 10.10's packages. that means the only option is to use the updated versions of the packages. you could manually install them but there's no real option outside of version mixing [06:28] how can i check my computer specs? [06:28] the basic problem is... 10.10 cant access my cellphone's bluetooth services ....(even file sharing) .... [06:29] SoulPropagation1, dont recommend it here. its not helpful at all. [06:29] brandon420, sudo lshw [06:29] I'm having trouble locating a spidermonkey package for Ubuntu 10.10, does anybody have any helpful hints on where I could find it? [06:29] brandon420: noob even i know that, j/k :D [06:29] brandon420: or use lshw-gtk [06:29] brandon420, sudo lshw | less [06:29] @brandon420: go to system>administration>system monitor> system [06:29] xgt001: might it just be in the kernel of 11.04? you should be able to backport that [06:30] !info lshw-gtk [06:30] lshw-gtk (source: lshw): graphical information about hardware configuration.

[06:31] !info spidermonkey-bin [06:31] Package spidermonkey-bin does not exist in maverick [06:31] xgt001: why did you already boot the 11.04 kernel in 10.10 and fail? [06:31] gah [06:31] whyyyyy [06:31] SoulPropagation1, backports [06:32] @sacarlson: nonono i was using 10.10 b4.... bt then formatted it and installed 11.04 (only for testing)... and i noticed that bluetooth works so dint remove it [06:32] xgt001: do you have problems with 11.04? [06:33] lazyPower: do you mean Mozilla's C implementation of JavaScript. [06:33] ActionParsnip: its required to run the jslint plugin for gedit is all i know [06:33] the ppa didn´t work [06:33] my txt rendering is messed up now [06:33] @SoulPropagation1: not with the connection but with the gui of the OS .... i cant logout easily, notification area and compiz crashes randomly and so on [06:34] pylix: ooooooo i hadn't considered searching for a ppa. thanks! [06:34] thats justified though... its still in alpha...any help for 10.04 ??? [06:34] xgt001: so make a dualboot system with 10.10 and 11.04 and try backport the 11.04 kernel then, if not boot the one that has the feature you need at the moment [06:34] lazyPower: maybe: https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/lucid/i386/spidermonkey-bin/1.8.1.16+nobinonly-0ubuntu1 never heard of it personally [06:35] Hi everyone. Xorg has gone berserk and is taking up 100% CPU time on one core, and not working correctly. For some reason, despite sending it SIGKILL and SIGSTOP repeately, it won't die. How do I kill it? [06:35] @sacarlson: 11.04 has a sad grub as of now.... it wont install with the normal installation... it shows error ... so no 10.04 dual boot :( [06:36] PurplePeter, you kill it softly. Also, Have you tried to reboot? [06:36] xgt001: how about installing 10.04 second to use its grub [06:36] xgt001: you don't need to change grub to boot the 11.04 kernel, keep 10.04 grub and try just port the kernel [06:36] ok first i have to install 11.04 then 10.04??? [06:36] hey guys my pc is screwed, it keeps freeing on the graphical 'Ubuntu' screen with the .... under it, it's before the GDM or what ever it is login screen. [06:37] xgt001: or use 10.04's installer to reinstall grub [06:37] sacarlson: can u explain how to port the kernel??? [06:37] try fedora [06:37] xgt001: you said you already have 11.04 installed, you just need to setup a spare 6 gig partition to install the secound [06:37] Skilz: when the splash shows, press ESC and you can see the useful text that plymouth hides [06:37] chupacabra: please be constructive [06:37] @chupacabra: ya i tried fedora as well ,... doesnt work [06:38] lol sorry [06:38] xgt001: this might help re-install grub: http://pkill-9.com/?p=314 [06:38] what video chipset? [06:38] fdsaseemslegit: I have not. I was more worried about whether I've gone insane and SIGKILL doesn't actually just rudely remove the process from the run queue, than worried about how to fix the issue. For reference, I just discovered that dmesg has some pretty horrific things in it, so I think this issue may be that of a crashed graphics driver. [06:39] xgt001: to port the kernel just get the deb file for it and install it in 10.04 or just copy the two files that make up a kernel and put them into /boot and create a custom grub2 entry to boot that set of ported kernel to try [06:39] ActionParsnip: not working [06:40] sacarlson: ok the simple deb install should work??? [06:40] hi, I just moved my home folder to a new drive/partition, and I see a "lost & found" folder in it - is that normal? I'm a Linux noob - ty [06:40] wat about the dependencies???? [06:40] lazarus: ya thats normal... [06:41] ok, thanks - is that like the hidden "recycler" in windows? [06:41] Skilz: ok then hold shift at boot, select recovery mode then select root, you can now use nano to edit /etc/default/grub and remove the quiet splash boot options, you can then run: update-grub to apply the change and reboot to get a text boot [06:41] xgt001: I'm not sure if the kernel is you problem or not but it's one difference between that it could be, what version kernel is your 11.04 now running? [06:41] @lazarus: exactly! [06:41] tyty [06:42] 2.6.37 rc3 [06:42] ActionParsnip: I already have that option turned off [06:42] cant play dvds and done most things like medibuntu - but dvd is japanese u think that is problem [06:43] am in japan :) [06:43] Skilz: then you should get no splash, just text [06:43] might have to change region on the dvd player, listerdl [06:43] thanks is that an option in VLC lazaruspc? [06:44] listerdl: doubt it - in windows, you right-click on the player, properties - not sure in linux (I'm noob) [06:44] thanks [06:44] gl [06:45] think it affects the firmware [06:46] xgt001: I see kernel 2.6.38 available in daily build ppa you could try on both 11.04 and 10.10 https://launchpad.net/~kernel-ppa/+archive/ppa?field.series_filter=lucid [06:47] hey anybody here with a separate home partition can help me out [06:47] sacarlson: is it a deb file??? [06:48] blitzer:I just did it 5 min. ago, but I'm a major noob [06:48] xgt001: it an added repository that adds deb files yes [06:48] when you had it in the home folder was it just your user name folder or was there other files [06:48] sacarlson: will give it a shot :) thanks [06:49] Hi [06:49] blitzer: I believe there were all the default subfolders, but not sure -this is fresh install [06:50] Hi how to report bugs in boot process after upgrading to 11.04 [06:50] I followed directions on this page: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Partitioning/Home/Moving [06:50] hi [06:50] so inside the home folder there is a boot folder and an initrd.img amongst other things or no [06:51] where is the trash option present? [06:51] I see no boot folder in mine [06:51] the commands on the page I just listed move everything to the new home folder [06:51] i want to restore my file from trash . where the trash present ? [06:51] okay thanks i thought so i can delete those then thx just wanted to double check [06:52] blitzer: I'd back it up first [06:52] can't be too safe [06:52] what is the terminal command to restore from trash? [06:52] i already have a separate home partition setup thats not it my home partition is 10 gb and its only showing about 3 gb but i think i forgot to format the partition after changing it from the whole install to just the home partition [06:53] cse03_: how about just going to the trash and then move it back out again? [06:53] if you deleted something using the command line, then it is gone [06:54] blitzer: that page should help - took me a while, but I'm very new to this [06:54] just to be sure zenithdk_- ubuntu doesn't install any system files on your home partition right? [06:55] blitzer32: I have no idea how your partition layout is, so can't answer that [06:56] okay how about this i have a initrd.img file on my file system partition and on my home partition is that normal [06:56] whats the easiest web serveri can use? [06:56] apache [06:57] 2? [06:57] apache 2? [06:57] the newest [06:57] blitzer32: I would expect it only to be on the file system partition, but I am no expert [06:57] Hi how to report bugs in boot process after upgrading to 11.04 [06:57] chupacabra: is that not a bit overkill? apache is hardly easy to configure? [06:58] gl blitzer, good night to all [06:58] apache goes as pre configured [06:58] is for me. get something less and when you need a real feature it ain't there [06:58] put anything to /var/www [06:58] okay thanks i'm pretty sure i know whats wrong so ill take the plung and delete them whats a reinstall anyway [06:58] if it is olny static web site [07:00] how can i delete the main topbar? [07:00] right click -> delete? [07:00] but then your menu and everything will be gone :) [07:00] better to just move [07:00] move it to the bottom that is [07:01] i want it gone, lol [07:01] i have cairo-dock [07:02] and you cant right click and delete === buschwus_ is now known as buschwusch [07:02] what does it say when you try?

[07:13] errr [07:13] is ubuntu going to be doing point releases now? eg 10.04.2 [07:13] brandon420, nope [07:13] Datz: long term support releases get them every 6 months starting 3 months after release [07:13] i dont think so Datz what would make you think that [07:13] blitzer32: the fact that the 10.04.2 freeze is currently in effect? [07:14] well, 10.04.1 was apparently the first point release [07:14] I need some help here. Just set up my server with spam assasin, and I want to test it. Anyone know of any sites where I could post my email address that would guarantee spam? [07:14] I was wondering if this is a new strategy [07:14] I just gotta say it, I'm stumped. Is there a file I could edit to change default compiling options? Y'know, so I don't have to specify everything every time? Such as in Gentoo there's /etc/make.conf [07:14] really i missed that i just went to 10.10 and forgot about the rest [07:15] Datz: 8.04 also had point releases [07:15] maco: ah. ok thanks [07:15] holmser: http://www.financial-freedom-informant.com/free-spam-guard.html [07:16] do you know why there are point releases?

[08:15] I have pc1 sharing internet 'ppp0' via 'eth0' to pc2 and I want to share the internet from 'eth0' on pc2 over wifi to my phone and macbook [08:15] windparadise: For an application I am developing. The last step is to associate the mime-type with the application. All other things have been done [08:15] hakermania: you can set default apps by rightclicking then selecting 'other app' if you tell the OS to it ca [08:15] Can remember your wishes [08:16] ActionParsnip: I am developing an app for including it to the Ubuntu. By installing the DEB file, user should be ready to run the files and open by default with my app. [08:17] !panel coldfront [08:17] ActionParsnip: So, there should not be user action. These new mime-types should be opened by default with my app. [08:17] Is anyone there? [08:17] hakermania: why not remaster the ubuntu iso so the app is installed on any machine you setup with it [08:19] Hello, I just reinstalled Ubuntu on a new partition and I'm trying to replace its root.disk with wubi root.disk I had before. How can I do this? [08:20] ActionParsnip: I wasn't probably understood. I am developing an app. It is currently reviewed by the MOTUS, in order to be included to ubuntu. This app has some project files. These files have to be opened with my application by default, once my application's deb file is installed. Imagine that you're downloading a DEB file from Ubuntu Software Center e.g. audacity, it does have .aup project files, that open by default with Audacity. I wan [08:21] I have created the new mime type, I've added an icon for this mime-type, and all work, except the association application-mime type, i mean, to open this mime-type with my application. [08:21] hakermania: there is a textfile in the user folder to set associations per user so the file may be in /usr/skel [08:22] Or is it /etc/skel [08:23] guys i need help [08:23] how to install tor proxy in ubuntu ?

[09:35] thanks greppy for responding and pointing me to this link [09:35] RicoSwave: there is no root.disk in a new ubuntu install. [09:35] firian: You cannot update directly to 10.10.

[09:38] Minimec: i know it will probably be time consuming but if i just go through the 9.04 and 9.10 updates will my data be saved? [09:39] raven, e.g. mount -t smbfs //$server/share /local/mount -o rw,username=$USER [09:39] My Ubuntu took infinite time to boot,hence I formatted C drive & installed XP.Now trying to install Ubuntu freshly but cant succeed [09:39] rumpe1, tnx [09:39] do i need two wireless cards for internet connection sharing, because i have one wireless card and all my lan systems have also one wireless card [09:39] firian: Well normally yes, but even then I would backup most important personal data.
