[00:42] Could anyone give me a hand with a wget sheel script? [00:43] BiPolah: === zkriesse_ is now known as zkriesse [01:56] Hello. I'm installing the dev tools on a current dev release, and I'm following the directions according to the beginners wiki page. It said to create a file ~/.pbuilderrc and run sudo pbuilder create ... but when I did that it said " root/.pbuilderrc file does not exist" but it went on creating pbuilder. Should I worry about this? [02:01] phillw do you know who can help Billg ? [02:01] sorry Billg I think noone available knows at this time [02:02] people who do know are away [02:10] I'll just mess around with it and see if i can get it working [02:26] Billg: Are you logged in as root? [02:37] how do i check that? [02:40] Billg: whoami [02:50] the command whoami just returned my user name, but I think my user is an adminastrator but when i type sudo etc it still asks for password and i still return to my user name directory when i type cd [02:51] sudo is the command for granting temp ROOT user powers [02:55] so how do i change myself so im not an adminstrator -- how to from command line? the gui way is not allowing orca to read it [02:57] Well, sudo shouldn't mess with the environment variables, so I'm not sure why it is looking at root/.pbuilderrc. I would have to play around some more. If it did creae the chroot though and you can build in it, you are probably fine [03:02] well it worked to build othe hello package like it said to try on the beginner website, but it still gave me error when i did that but continued and worked fine. It put the results in the right directory as specified by the webpage.. it seems to be working fine. I'm just wondering if there is something important in the .pbuilderrc file it needs later on === nuboon2age_ is now known as nUboon2Age [05:00] assalamualaimkum [05:10] Hmm, I want to ask this, but I am likely going to rally people who have xbox receivers to file a bug for me. Which in turn I want to do to make Ubuntu better. [05:12] ?? [05:12] One of my xbox 360 wireless receivers has gone out, so I looked it up and it could be that the F1 fuse has burned out. Is there a way for the maintainers of it with Ubuntu to have it so that before it burns out that the receiver is turned off ahead of time? [05:13] Before it over heats? [05:13] like a wireless controller dongle for your computer? [05:13] usb, yes [05:14] ah, ok...i have no idea, haha [05:14] It's cool [05:15] Also the xbox 360 wireless controller's triggers don't work right [05:15] And the problem with the led lights blinking was never fixed but that one done't bother me [05:16] Well, that's it for me. [05:17] Is there a channel Ubuntu joystick related? [05:17] not that i know of.. [05:18] Ah ha, they have an artwork team. [05:19] Sorry to say I don't like purple, or brown and I didn't like the blue used for Kubuntu. Or is it Kbuntu? [05:19] Must be Kubuntu [05:19] I don't want to upset them [05:19] hmm [05:20] I will have to avoid saying what I didn't like. [05:20] yah it's kubuntu, and that's why there are so many themes to choose from :) [05:20] I thought they did well, but I like blue [05:21] Everyone has there opinion. [05:21] I once tried themes, but I gave up trying that from the Ubuntu Software Center. [05:21] Instead, I have 2 themes [05:22] i don't know if that works well or not. in kubuntu there is a way to download more themes right from the theme selection window [05:23] gnome-look is a popular choice for finding themes for ubuntu, but a couple of things on there have been found to contain malware :/ [05:23] Black and white. With white as text. With the controls as industrial, selected colors 0600CD, window border Clearlooks [05:23] With white and blue I have: [05:26] window border as clearlooks, controls as clearlooks, for colors: window E8F7FF, in boxes white, selected items 0028FF text for selected items is white, and tool tips white [05:27] I went to gnomelook over the months to find blue icon themes that I would like [05:29] Bluestep humanity is more to my liking, but I was shooting for Bluemanity but with out the hint of purple. I was hoping for Blue to black without light blue, and if there is any light blue I don't want gray which is why I don't like the Kubuntu look. [05:30] Before they changed the loggin them I was happy because I had found this: [05:30] oops [05:30] see if this works [05:30] Hardy-blue Brave 2 GDM [05:31] OK, I don't know why that happened. OK, I think I know what happened [05:31] I must have copied with right clicking without thinking instead of right click rename, copy with Ctrl-C. O well [05:32] See you dude [05:37] I'm looking for a good DVD ripper, any suggestions [06:09] Hello everyone, I am having an issue, I have 2 external hard-drives and every time I switch between Windows 7 and Ubuntu and then back I am having issues with windows either not recognizing the file system or it says its gone bad [06:09] does anyone know a fix for this? (and i need windows so dont say delete it lol) [06:10] humanitylos, may be try in ##windows [06:11] Ya ill try that next but most windows ppl dont know ubuntu so I wanted to check here.. [06:28] I decided to keep Windows XP on my other computer. I hope to never have to have a dual boot of Windows and Linux but I would like to learn someday how to make it work. But the only way to do that is to have a setup to have to work out the problems over years to truly understand how to maintain it. [06:28] I am going since I am going to be of no help here. [08:47] Hi there [08:52] Hi buddy! [08:52] Hi acarpine [08:52] hey.... can you help me with something? [08:53] maybe :-) [08:53] I don't know but try please [08:54] I need to do internet sharing, and I don't know how to do that [08:54] I am pretty new in Ubuntu [08:55] there are many thing in Network ( Ubuntu 10.10 ) but... I tried different things, but it's not working [08:56] I never do it under Ubuntu but you could start with https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Internet/ConnectionSharing [08:57] There also other step-by-step tutorials like http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=91370 [08:57] I saw that, I thought there is a Graphic mode to do that, I am really new in everything which means Linux, so... it's not easy for me to do that in a command line [08:58] the second link it's good :D, I think I can handle that [08:59] is there a command, to see my network devices ? I have 2... and I don't know on which ones is my internet connection [09:00] ifconfig [09:01] it is the command to configure your network interfaces [09:02] The section "GUI Method via Network Manager (Ubuntu 9.10 and up)" in the https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Internet/ConnectionSharing explains how to share with the Graphical User Interface [09:03] good luck rokyronnie :-) [09:03] thankyou very much :D [09:05] u r welcome! === JackyAlcine1 is now known as JackyAlcine [09:50] Hello.

[13:31] I have some troubles, I have no sound in Ubuntu [13:31] I mean, no sound from guitar pro [13:32] but you can hear sounds from, lets say youtube? [13:32] tut [13:33] bioterror, gp => midi software [13:33] haha [13:33] ooh cool [13:33] they have a release for Linux now. =) [13:34] who? [13:34] GP [13:34] you mean v6? [13:34] * evilbuclaw gets free trial [13:34] ok, I'll try that, thanks :D [13:35] I've playde guitar since I was 12 and I've never used Guitar Pro :D [13:35] my second question, I've got crashes from shockwave player in Chromium, what can I do? [13:37] I bet it happens on certain web pages? [13:37] it happens every where, for example... youtube [13:37] silly flash [13:37] and with firefox it doesnt happen? [13:38] firefox is fine, but... firefox run very hard :(, that's why I use Chromium [13:38] rokyronnie, maybe problem with chromium, I dunno. I use beta from ppa and no probs. [13:38] rokyronnie, Chromium is beta (for time being), Flash is (and always will be) the product of 'meh' quality. [13:39] hahaha [13:39] flash is teh... [13:39] I cannot find enough describing adjective [13:39] bioterror, 'meh' with a capital 'meh' [13:40] and what can I do ? Firefox works very very hard, and slow, it takes so long to load a page [13:40] rokyronnie, it's likely a Chromium problem though. Having all processes in jailroot containers causes strange things to happen with plugins. n_n [13:41] I understand [13:41] there's lots of 'speed up firefox' guides out there. [13:41] oh, if you know a good one :D, show me [13:42] (I've done some strange things in the past when getting it to play nicely on netbooks) [13:42] Firefox 3.0beta made me D; [13:44] firefox4 is faaaaaaaaaaaast [13:44] * JoeMaverickSett nods in aggggreeeement.

When I plug in a mike and headset I have no sound at all. When I run the alsamixer there is no mute box below the PCM, Mike Boost and Capture fields. They are only on the first two fields (master and speaker). I used the sound guide that was posted on the website, but, honestly I'm afraid that I am just making the problem worse.

[16:01] field === AbhijiT_ is now known as AbhiJit [16:38] how does one set login preferences such that one doesn't need to login when resuming work on a laptop? [16:39] alienmindtrick, its in preferences->screensaver [16:39] AbhiJit: that only works until you shut down and restart, then it goes back to requiring login [16:40] nope [16:40] it works well [16:40] i beg to differ. i just tried that from a thread on ubuntugeek [16:40] and i've tried it many many times in the past [16:41] then i think i dont know what you want. [16:41] i've also tried setting it from System > Admin > Login Screen [16:41] i think you don't, either [16:41] but thanks, anyway [16:42] alienmindtrick: System -> Users and Groups [16:43] and then go to Password : Change [16:43] check 'Don't ask for password on Login' [16:43] If that's what you needed, alienmindtrick [16:43] JackyAlcine: it was already set for that [16:43] I just checked [16:44] ah, well, you want to avoid having to encounter GDM, no? [16:44] the login screen = GDM. [16:44] yes [16:44] It's like the middle man for GNOME and the X server system. [16:44] It's kinda *needed* [16:44] I'm not required to login at startup, but only when resuming work [16:45] and then only if I manually suspend the machine. if it auto-suspends, there's no login screen when i wake it [16:45] Then your screen gets locked; that's a setting, hold on. [16:45] OK [16:47] I'm not sure how to edit the lock screen configuration from GNOME, but I know that Ubuntu Tweak has such a configuration. [16:47] I shall have to get that [16:48] if you have the application, it's under Power Management settings. [16:48] JackyAlcine, screensaver has a on or off button for password on return. [16:48] That's for the screensaver, he's trying to disable the lock screen. [16:49] yes. I've tried the screensaver setting many many times. no change, it still requires login upon resume. [16:53] OK, in Ubuntu Tweak, there's a setting that says 'Disable user list in GDM'. Is that the one to check? It was prechecked, if that makes any difference. This is under the 'Login Settings' tab. [16:55] alienmindtrick: Nope, that just shows a textbox to enter a username. [16:55] OK [16:55] alienmindtrick: Go down the list to Power Management. [16:55] and 'Disable lock screen'. [16:55] done [16:55] wait [16:56] I'll be here. [16:56] System > Power Manager Settings > Enable "Lock screen" when "Blank Screen" activates? it was already unchecked. [16:56] oh oh oh oh oh [16:56] uncheck "Lock screen on suspend" [16:57] Ding! [16:57] :D [16:57] brb [17:14] .... [17:14] he isn't back yet. =/ [17:25] how can I add a Icon in applications categories? like a game(which I must run with wine) I wanna add it in Games category [17:26] rokyronnie: go to system - preferences - main menu [17:26] thank you very much :D [17:26] :) [17:36] can I set a winne window ontop ? cause it looks like this http://postimage.org/image/1qg442ox0/ [17:37] not sure [17:37] i find it depends on the program [17:37] OK, I'm back and sad to report that the change in Ubuntu Tweak didn't stop Gnome from requiring me to login when resuming. what now? [17:37] sometimes there is a full screen option [17:37] sometimes that gets stuck ;) [17:38] alienmindtrick: whats the issue? [17:39] is this 10.10? [17:39] I have login disabled everywhere we can think of, yet my laptop still requires login when i wake it after manually suspending it. yes, 10.10.

[17:58] after making those changes? [17:58] you might want to try that [17:58] um...i didn't change anything [17:58] im not sure about when those settings get loaded [17:58] nothing was checked [17:58] alienmindtrick: you probably made those changes with ubuntu-tweak [17:58] and didnt know [17:58] oh, yes i restarted [17:59] then i suspended and it required login [17:59] and whatever else you've copied and pasted in for several hours [17:59] trying to sort this out [17:59] this *should* do it [17:59] one thing you can try [17:59] use screensaver settings [17:59] did that months ago [17:59] and make sure that its unticked over there [17:59] screensaver, power management, login, deleted login keys [17:59] alienmindtrick: did what months ago? [18:00] all of these things except gconfig [18:00] right [18:00] and since i had nothing to change there, i don't think ...well, i don't think anything will change, right? [18:00] gconf woul have been the best place [18:00] i think [18:00] yes....i think you missed what i said [18:00] i changed nothing [18:00] none of the checkboxes were checked [18:01] alienmindtrick: something did though [18:01] you did [18:01] with something else [18:01] you* changed these settings [18:01] but NOTHING CHANGED [18:01] by some other means [18:01] alienmindtrick: are the unticked or not? [18:01] it still required me to login after i restarted and then suspended it [18:01] out of the box, hibernate and suspend are ticked [18:01] they are...and were...all unticked [18:01] if they are unticked [18:02] then, prior to this, at some point, by some means [18:02] something else changed these settings [18:02] ok, that's accepted. but it doesn't fix the issue, right? [18:02] and who knows what else [18:02] right [18:02] im not sure how i would procede [18:02] so....i'm right back where i was when i got here [18:02] yeah, you're doomed [18:02] ;) [18:02] yeah, it's not a super big issue...except that it is [18:02] ;) [18:03] i think i would make a new user [18:03] and try from inside that accound [18:03] account* [18:03] these settings [18:03] it's just an annoyance when i want to pop my laptop open, check something quickly...but find that i have to enter my entire 17-digit password [18:03] OR, if you have another install somewhere [18:03] soemthing that has had no prior tweaking [18:03] no clue [18:03] try the gconf setting [18:03] just to get 'whatever' had been done [18:03] prior to now [18:04] out of the equation [18:04] how does one do that? [18:04] well, by first trying a different new user account [18:04] on that install [18:05] can i then give that user full administrative rights? [18:05] then, trying another install [18:05] alienmindtrick: i wouldnt [18:05] thats not what you need [18:05] you should be able to find a work around for this [18:06] hmmm [18:06] well, i've been hearing that for months. except that no one can help me fix it. also, as i recall now, it did this even when i had 10.04 LTS, before updating to 10.10 [18:07] so as to a fresh install...i don't think that would be advantageous [18:07] could be a bug [18:07] mmhmm [18:07] i've submitted it as such. haven't heard anything. [18:07] well, it would get whatever tweaks you have done out of the equation [18:07] alienmindtrick: what are you expecting to hear? [18:07] i've also looked high and low, trying to do due diligence [18:07] wheres the report? [18:07] you might could link it in here [18:07] see if its been confirmed [18:07] i thought i might find something on it in a forum [18:07] i will try it [18:08] when i have more time [18:08] right [18:08] and confirm it [18:09] holstein: http://ubuntugeek.com/forum/index.php/topic,4041.0.html [18:10] that's not the first time i've posted it, either. that was just my latest round of frustration [18:10] yeah [18:10] thats not offical ubuntu support though [18:10] oh?

[18:14] alienmindtrick: hey, ubuntugeek is great [18:14] i think that for beginners, ubuntu geek is much easier. [18:15] oh! i'm already registered there. [18:15] which means that i've already posted this there. [18:15] probably [18:15] just make sure you do a bug report about it [18:15] * alienmindtrick blushes and looks embarrassed [18:15] okey dokey [18:15] IF you want anything official to happen [18:15] a forum post can be ignored [18:15] a bug report can be too [18:16] BUT, its more official [18:16] i'm reminded of what my primary russian instructor used to say in monterey: for every 8 exceptions, there's a new rule. but there are exceptions. [18:16] check https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ReportingBugs [18:16] it's ok [18:16] i do technical writing [18:16] i'm sure i can do a bug report [18:17] theres just a bit more responsibility on the user here [18:17] alrighty. thanks a million holstein [18:17] doing bugs properly is a lot of work too [18:17] i did it once [18:17] with 10.04 [18:17] from beta or alpha [18:17] trying to keep up with them [18:17] at any rate, it's far better than windoze! [18:17] ;) [18:17] and report properly [18:18] can be challenging [18:18] I'm trrying to clean up my windows partition so that I can move it again, giving more space to ubuntu. However, when I go to defragment the drive, it is showing some files way out in the free space. I'm plaining to take 60gig from the 115 left for windows. [18:19] johnny77: maybe whatever that is windows calls swap space? [18:19] These few files way out by themselves will they get deleted if I just go ahead and change the partition? [18:19] paging file or whatever [18:19] ? [18:20] holstein: that's possible. I'm just afraid it may be some pictures or music files. something important. [18:20] i seem to remember disabling paging or whatever [18:20] and getting a 'better' defrag [18:21] but, its been years [18:21] is there a way to add my password in a command line ? I don't want to ask me every time I run it [18:21] im not sure about if you resize otherwise [18:21] i think its better to be cautious anyways [18:22] rokyronnie: run? [18:22] sudo ? [18:22] what are you trying to bypass? [18:23] holstein: I bet your right, because when I look at the report it says Pagefile fragmentaion: size: 1.48 gb total fragments 1 - thanks for the idea to turn it off. I'll try that. [18:23] my command is sudo fkjdsfsd whatever it is, and after this, he ask me for password [18:23] that's what I want to pass, I want to add the pass directly in command, so he never ask me [18:23] i think you want to add yourself to the sudoer group?? [18:23] let me look that up... [18:24] personally, i appreciate the extra step [18:24] sanity check :) [18:25] this is relavant [18:25] http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=162867 [18:25] but old [18:26] rokyronnie: [18:26] i have better information [18:26] hmm, I actually want to do that for one command [18:26] sudo adduser USERNAME sudo [18:26] say [18:26] then, you wont be prompted for pass [18:26] you'll say [18:27] sudo whatever [18:27] and it'll just happen [18:27] ok :), thank you [18:28] how can I do 2 commands in same line, I must add & or something? [18:28] its 2 right? [18:28] sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade [18:28] like that i think [18:29] oh, it keeps ask me for pass [18:29] :( [18:32] might need to logout and back in for that? [18:36] hm, I don't think you understand exactly what I want to do :).So... I have a command line, which reset my internet connection ( if it gets down ) and I made it like an Icon in Applications - Internet, which opens a terminal and do what it need to do, but, like any command, it ask me for password, and I don't want it to ask me for password every time, that's why I am asking, can I add a command line before it ? which contains the pass or somethin [18:36] i see [18:37] i would have thought that would do it [18:37] i have a couple icons like that [18:37] and i just put my pass in [18:37] you should be able to script that though [18:37] you need a python guru [18:37] I know, but I wanna see an example :D [18:37] :) [18:38] not even a guru [18:38] i bet thats easy [18:38] im just not there yet [18:38] I must install python guru? [18:38] nah [18:38] i was suggesting finding a python expert [18:38] aa [18:38] I see [18:39] to show you how to write a little pythong progam [18:39] that would do that [18:39] run that command, and put in you pass [18:39] thats do-able [18:39] in theory [18:42] if I put my pass it works, it's just fine, but, I would like to add that directly in command line :D, can you ask someone who knows how to do that? [18:44] hmmm [18:44] im not sure who i would ask [18:44] rokyronnie, you can remove password from sudo [18:44] rokyronnie, make it work without it [18:44] acutally, bioterror is on the list :) [18:44] what [18:45] a go to guy for this question :) [18:46] # %wheel ALL=(ALL) NOPASSWD: ALL [18:46] add your user to wheel and remove # from /etc/sudoers [18:47] like # %user ALL=(ALL) mypass: ALL [18:47] like that? [18:48] %wheel ALL=(ALL) NOPASSWD: ALL [18:48] and add your user to whell group if it's not in it already [18:48] wheel [18:50] this is what I recieve [18:50] bash: syntax error near unexpected token `(' [18:50] what? [18:51] I recieve this if I insert that command [18:51] you're modifying /etc/sudoers [18:51] you must add that %wheel [18:52] to make sudo understand that you want execute sudo command without password [18:52] oooh, I thought I must put that in terminal, sorry [18:52] aahhh [18:52] ubuntu doesnt use wheel [18:53] gotta think [18:53] just a moment [18:53] ok :) [18:54] yeah [18:54] easy peasy [18:54] just a moment [18:55] jep [18:55] you have /etc/sudoers [18:55] last line is "%admin ALL=(ALL) ALL" [18:55] edit it to: %admin ALL=(ALL) NOPASSWD: ALL [18:56] okay [18:56] now I am :D [18:56] I tried NOPASSWD: myaccount [18:56] ok :D, i'll do that now [18:56] ALL works without a problem :D [18:57] I think I'll boot a livecd... [18:57] thohoho [18:58] there's a reason why I active root for a worst case scenarios [18:59] my last line looks different [18:59] I mean, it's just.. I don't have a sudoers dir, just sudoers.d [19:00] and inside of it it's a file called readme [19:01] you're using ubuntu? [19:01] rokyronnie, what if you say "sudo visudo" [19:01] yes, I am using Ubuntu [19:01] let me try [19:02] it shows me something [19:02] oh yeah, I'll boot from recovery mode back to normal ;) [19:03] why are you on recovery mode ? :D [19:04] becouse I messed my sudoers ;) [19:06] oh :D [19:08] with visudo I can edit /etc/sudoers [19:08] good [19:09] my last line looks like root ALL=(ALL) ALL [19:09] [19:09] you just need to add "NOPASSWD: " [19:09] you dont have %admin? [19:09] this is how it looks [19:09] but I am the owner :D :)) [19:10] I have to the same line, but when I scroll more, I get two lines moar [19:11] and if I add NOPASSWD before last all, it will never ask me for pass, for any command? [19:12] yes [19:12] but it should be for a group your user is a member [19:12] and that's admin [19:12] % groups .:21:12:38 on 11-02-11:.

[20:25] http://www.ubuntu.com/community/report-problem [20:30] bioterror: i'm guessing it's not a bug and that I have something configured incorrectly. I wasn't the one who originally set up this install, I'm just trying to migrate it to a flash drive...which is turning out to be a pain. [20:32] hmmm [20:32] when I start up there's also an error that says "Starting AppArmor profiles xargs: /sbin/apparmor_parser: terminated by signal 9 [fail]" ... no idea if this is related [20:34] is here someone who use DeadBeef ? :D [20:36] me, but just for listening chiptunes [20:36] oh, but, in preferences at Global Hotkeys can you add something?
