[00:00] jrib:recovery mode [00:00] Please, let's not go down that road.. I'd much rather helps folks with Ubuntu stuff :) [00:00] so if I want to transfor some files from ubuntu to vista using my hard disc..if theere are windows viruses on ubuntu..they will efect my vista also??is this right [00:00] sabag: try this, boot back in normal mode, and try ctrl-alt-f7, ctrl-alt-f8, ctrl-alt-f9 to see if you see gdm. If not, check that you have a login window at ctrl-alt-f1 [00:00] Guest95209: only if the file is opened or used in vista [00:00] Guest95209, not until you run it manually in Vista as administrator. [00:00] arbitrary2: My only suggestion is a diffrent flash drive, I g2g [00:00] Guest95209: and in that case you probably have anti-virus on vista... [00:01] I'm going to try this, then I'm going to use an ArchLive to see if it makes a difference. [00:01] after a recommended Ubuntu update im having problems viewing youtube videos i get a message saying "an error occured, please try again later", also the audio volume controlls no longer modify the subwoofer on the laptop, im using 10.10. [00:01] yaaa..so inthat case is it advisable to have AV on linux too right? [00:01] jrib:ok [00:01] Hi. Does anyone know what "SIOCGFFLAGS error: No such device" might mean in relation to my usb wireless card? === jewhooker is now known as jewhooker2011 [00:02] Guest95209: Won't hurt anything [00:02] Guest95209: From that point of view yes :) There is clamav anti virus [00:02] twitch: are you still here? [00:02] ok buddy thanks for the info... [00:02] could u plz tell me how to install it.. [00:03] Guest95209: no because antivirus on vista will take care of windows viruses and ubuntu doesn't suffer from virus only time you will need av on linux is to scan windows that doesn't have av [00:03] Guest95209: open software center and search for clamav [00:03] i use avast [00:03] ohh yaa u r right === jewhooker2011 is now known as antogg [00:04] Guest95209: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ClamAV [00:04] can some1 help me to investigate my long boot times? my dmesg http://paste.ubuntu.com/565607/ have a look at line 647 (mounting ext3 takes more than 100 seconds!!!) and line 713 and following (take me additional 20 sec). i allread did fsch.ext3 to my both partitons (/ ant /home) from my second ubuntu installed on the same hdd. [00:04] so my question is if i run my AV on vista..will it checks linux partition also..or not === user01 is now known as Sagitario32 [00:04] Clavin12, I have seen that before with someone elses wifi, but unfortunately, I dont know what it means. Sorry [00:04] Guest95209: no [00:04] ohhh [00:05] In narwhal there is a compiz plugin that allows you to drag a window to the side and it would then set that window to half the width of the screen does anyone know what it is called, thanks [00:05] Guest95209: no because windows cannot see linux partitions [00:05] Guest95209: no, because 1) win don't want to read ext2/3/4 partitions [00:05] jrib: back to failsafex, alt-ctrl-f... didn't work [00:05] ok [00:06] +1 | pusherman2 [00:06] sabag: I don't know then. This might be some sort of strange wubi bug I haven't seen before. Maybe try the channel again later [00:06] how do i add /home/user/checkipaddress to crone and run it every 5 mins? [00:06] Guest95209: most viruses are from sites that cater mostly for adult fantasy anyway or from email phreak attacks so don't worry too much about viruses [00:06] so..av program on windows will take care of the windows viruses if they are in those files which i transfer form ubuntu..right?? [00:06] pusherman2: might try #compiz [00:06] Guest95209: to maybe calm you a bit: most windows viruse are not able to run under linux. so even if you have them on your linux (for whatever reason) i am 99% sure it can not be executed [00:06] !crontab | psywiped [00:06] psywiped: cron is a way to schedule execution of software/scripts. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CronHowto - There is also a decent Howto at http://www.tech-geeks.org/contrib/mdrone/cron&crontab-howto.htm [00:06] Guest95209: yes [00:07] Guest95209: if windows has a live antivirus it will detect them the moment they attempt to activate [00:07] yes bro..i have no doubt abt ubuntu..my problem is with windows here [00:07] yaa i agree [00:07] Guest95209: which you have already been told won't happen until you click on the infected file === Logan_WP is now known as Gfoley3 [00:07] ok then, how do i undo an update on Ubuntu 10.10 ?? [00:08] coz I am new to UBUNTU platform..thats why am bothering u with questions :)) [00:08] does reformating a computer constantly, like once a day, damage or hurt the hard drive in any way? [00:08] something like restore to older working setup ? [00:08] jrib:I installed the wubi 10.04 after half year ( that i forgot about windows xp) i upgraded in update manager [00:08] Guest95209, Thats ok [00:09] antogg: reformatting?! either way, it's no difference to normal writing so i'd say no [00:09] are there any side bar like vista in ubuntu [00:09] antogg: every harddrive has it's lifetime, but i dont think formating the harddrive kill's it any faster than regular usage does. [00:10] Guest95209: you can add extra panels and place items in them [00:10] be a bit soon for him/her to start messing with win2-7 === Gfoley3 is now known as Logan_WP [00:10] k thanks benedict and OY1R [00:11] jrib: thank's anyway [00:11] np [00:12] Hello Guys, i have some problem with gwibber-service... everytime it refresh it uses 100% of CPU for a while... like 30 seconds, and sometimes it freezes and only can be killed. Anyone have a clue to fiz it on Maveric? (Lucid solution don't work) [00:12] Guest95209: either follow ardchoille or.... have a look at KDE!!! it's a bit "fatter" than gnome but has more "eyecandy" and is more liberate with changing settings. some people like that some don't ;) - the general perception is, that KDE is a bit easier to use when coming from windows. if you are happy with gnome, keep it and llok at kde later, when you are confident with ubuntu/linux [00:13] Just in case anyone was interested, I found the plugin here, it is called compiz-snap http://www.mikesubuntu.com/2010/06/snap-windows-to-sides-like-windows-7-using-compiz/ [00:13] oh ok [00:13] kde is a piece of buggy junk, it's much, much worse than Gnome. [00:13] benedict: well said [00:14] but I like ubuntu for now..I will see KDE also.. [00:14] thx for the flowers ardchoille [00:14] :) [00:14] Lint: that not true, maybe your opinion [00:14] Guest95209: first take your time with gnome ;) [00:14] I use Dockey on the bottom and on the left to handle my hd mounts and I use Awn on the left for temp and weather and such. [00:14] schnuffle, it's my experience [00:14] sure;) [00:14] Guest95209: there's also desklets, screenlets and google gadgets.. they provide even more way to do things [00:15] Lint: so state it like that [00:15] Awn on the right excuse me [00:15] Hi! What's the command for mounting cd/dvd images in ubuntu ? [00:15] Williams: mount [00:16] icarus-c, the full command ? [00:16] can some1 help me to investigate my long boot times? my dmesg http://paste.ubuntu.com/565607/ have a look at line 647 (mounting ext3 takes more than 100 seconds!!!) and line 713 and following (take me additional 20 sec). i allread did fsch.ext3 to my both partitons (/ ant /home) from my second ubuntu installed on the same hdd. [00:16] Williams: mount -t iso9660 blah.iso /mnt/mountpoint [00:16] icarus-c, thanks [00:16] Williams: see man page for details [00:17] KDE is also looking nice [00:17] benedict: how old is that hdd? Sounds like it might be having to circumvent bas blocks or something [00:18] s/bas/bad/ [00:18] hey you guys...me and someone want to secure out irc chats....is this the way to do it? https://help.ubuntu.com/community/OpenSSL [00:19] ardchoille: i bought that laptop 2 years ago. its a lenovo idepad s12. i am quite careful with it and rarely moved it when it was turned on. on the other hand i turned off/hinbernated it several times a day [00:19] ok, I've got Maverick almost tuned up...but I have one problem. with my cable connection, windows7 and firefox...firefox loads pages lickity-split. Firefox in Maverick takes an amazingly long time (sometimes up to 45 secs) to load same pages. Can someone give me a clue why this is happening? [00:20] How do I install a .run file so it goes in the Applications drop down box? [00:20] like a .deb file.. [00:20] ardchoille: as stated before fschk doesn't complain or something like that... do you know where/how to investigate fruther? [00:21] Abinadai: hm, i saw that firefox always did a IPv6 dns lookup before falling back to ipv4... that always takes time, but never 45 secs.... [00:21] benedict: I'm afraid I don't, but my first suspicion is a dying hdd. I don't know enough about hardware to get that deeply into it I'm afraid. [00:23] ardchoille: hm... i don't want things to die... especially not my hdd... [00:23] Vustom ti depends on the .run, official packages are in the repos.... you could manually make a link i guess [00:23] benedict, no kidding right. I've done some tweaking to firefox, but it doesn't seem to help at all. I'm open to *any* ideas right about now. [00:23] benedict: I'm seeing an app called Disk Utility in System, have you tried to see if that would yield anything? [00:25] Abinadai: open firefox, type in about:config, type "ipv6" (without quotes) into the textbox and see if ipv6 is enabled. I always disable ipv6 and it speeds up firefox tremendously [00:25] ardchoille: my prob is that i use fluxbox on a minimal ubuntu install. i installed gnome-disk-utility what seems to be tha package for that thing in Systems. i was not able to launch it fomr command line in a way that it gives me any new results. can you run it and see how it's process is called so that i can fire it up from cmd-line? [00:25] maco: toram does not work [00:25] iflema: I have done it in terminal but it just puts a folder on my desktop, I can run it within the folder but It doesn't install like a .deb does, why not..? I want to be able to access it via Applications > Internet [00:25] ardchoille, ok I'll do that now. [00:25] Abinadai: put that in your .bashrc export MOZ_DISABLE_PANGO=1 [00:26] can anyne help me add a subdomain to my server? [00:26] Vustom: create a freedesktop menu entry for it? [00:26] ?? [00:26] Abinadai: the export thing helped me a lot [00:26] I'm new to Ubuntu, whats that [00:26] how do i inject ubuntu 10.10 to ram [00:26] benedict: the command used to launch the app here is palimpsest [00:26] ty everyone [00:26] Vustom: you are trying to make a menu entry for an application right? [00:26] yup [00:26] Vustom: in that case you could use System -> Preferences -> Main Menu if i remember correctly [00:27] skullboy: what do you mean [00:27] ardchoille: neat! ok got it running... first sight it says "disk is healthy" do you suggest further steps? === jboyson is now known as mia158 [00:27] Vustom if you try, in a terminal ./runfile.run --help you may see an option to set install directory etc.... most likely youll need to make a manual link from where its installed to the menu [00:27] ok iv tried like 5 different things im trying to install flash 10.2 on ubuntu 10.10 [00:28] benedict: Hmm, sounds like I may have been wrong to start with. If the disk reports as healthy in more than one app then I would assume the hdd is fine [00:28] ardchoille, I did that and that totally fixed the problem!!! [00:28] benedict: That was my only suspicion I'm afraid [00:28] icarus-c: run all the files off ram like in puppy linux or partition magic or backtrack ect [00:28] Abinadai: Glad to hear it :) [00:28] Vustom you can right click on the menu bar you can edit and create/remove shortcuts [00:29] Where do I get the icon for it though.. [00:29] ardchoille: i would have be very surprised if the hdd was damaged. it's slow (i guess it's a cheap/slow 5400 rpm hdd) but it cant account for mre than 100 sec in boot time .... [00:29] ardchoille, now how do I make sure that the setting stays on all the time, or is it just persistent once you disable it? [00:29] icarus-c: run all the files off ram like in puppy linux or partition magic or backtrack ect [00:29] Vustom use another icon, use gimp to make one.... [00:29] exit [00:29] benedict: I agree [00:29] skullboy: for an installed system? [00:29] skullboy: Add the "toram" kernel parameter. [00:29] Abinadai: I tshould remain as you set it until you change it [00:30] ardchoille, outstanding! thanks :) [00:30] icarus-c: no live [00:30] jordan_u: how [00:30] ardchoille: let me benchmark it... could you do a read only benchmark too, so that we can compare? [00:31] benedict: I have no idea how to do that [00:31] ardchoille: use the disk utility [00:31] skullboy: just append toram into kernel parameter when you are in boot menu [00:32] skullboy: Looking at the scrollback you said "toram does not work". What do you mean? What happens when you use the toram kernel parameter and how much RAM do you have? [00:32] link me? [00:32] ardchoille: if you noavigate to your hdd you will see the benchamrk button [00:32] Abinadai: here is more on how to tweak firefox http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/tips/ [00:32] Abinadai: it will be permanet [00:32] jordan_u: do u mean where u press tab to mod the paramaters [00:33] skullboy: Yes. [00:33] jordan_u: 4gb [00:33] benedict: starting benchmark [00:33] why flash no work no more? [00:34] Abinadai: also try my export line i posted before. i disable the ipv6 thing too (this is where i first suspicion came from) and did the exort thing. the export pango thing will disable chinese symbols supprt or so... and it helped me a lot [00:34] ardchoille: thank you [00:34] want to have your server update its ip address to twitter use this http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/565625/ [00:34] Rhythmbox will not start [00:34] Vustom there are many preinstalled to choose from and if worst comes to worst download an imge file and make an icon..... prob best to use apps from the repos anyway, for both security and compatability [00:34] When [00:34] I try to start in in terminal I get this: GLib-ERROR **: /build/buildd/glib2.0-2.26.0/glib/gmem.c:405: overflow allocating 1702060387*4 bytes [00:34] aborting... [00:34] Aborted [00:35] benedict, thanks. do I just use gedit to edit the file you were talking about? [00:35] jordan_u: so just add toram to the paramiters at the end [00:35] :( Ubuntu10.1Flash10.2 broken? [00:35] skullboy: Yes. [00:35] ardchoille, thanks. I'll have a look at that. [00:35] Abinadai: yes. you have to edit .bashrc in your home directory. dont forget about the "." infront of the name! [00:36] jordan_u: i tryed that it still booted useing the usbflash [00:36] benedict: benchmark done. Screenshot be best? [00:36] Hello #ubuntu [00:36] ardchoille: min. read rate is 33.3MB/s max. read rate is 68.1 MB/s average read rate is 54MB/s average acces time is 18.3 ms [00:36] skullboy: What is the output of "mount" and "cat /proc/cmdline" when you do that? [00:36] Anyone here have particular expertise in peripheral USB joypads? [00:36] ardchoille: yes, a screenshot would be great! [00:38] hello all! I'm running 10.10 on a laptop that has had some serious issues with overheating even before the install; now the fan isn't even running and I'm not sure where to start looking for the proper driver for it. Any suggestions as to where to start? [00:38] thanks guys [00:38] jordan_u: when i try to unmount it says the device is busy [00:38] Abinadai: the export line i gave you has to be in a won line. maybe you'll neet to re-login or even reboot... the best thing is, if you add it to your .bashrc and after next boot you try to notice if it makes a difference. if it does, keep it, if not remove it again ;) [00:38] benedict: http://ardchoille.nfshost.com/public/benchmark.jpg [00:38] I am trying to get a USB joystick (originally made for Mac, apparently) to work. [00:39] skullboy: Please try doing it again and pastebin the output of "mount" and "cat /proc/cmdline". [00:39] Currently, the power button turns on, and if Ihold down the right analog stick and twiddle with the analog sticks it moves my mouse around. [00:40] I can't locate it at /dev/input/js0 [00:40] but then again I'm no expert in this field === jboyson is now known as mia158 [00:41] nillerz: maybe it isn't registering as a joystick? [00:41] nillerz: hence why you won't find it in js0 [00:42] benedict: looks like you should be getting better performance than I am.. which leaves me even more puzzled [00:42] mickster04, how do I figure that out, and what do I do about that? [00:42] ardchoille: i'm tying to paste my bench... one sec [00:42] ardchoille: preformance heh [00:43] where is the twidge config file? [00:43] ardchoille: benchmarks are eh real preformance matter then what one progrma thinks [00:43] uhm, there should be logs somewhere of when the device connects, and that would say where the new device is, but I have no idea elsewise [00:43] I am mostly theoretical help :p [00:44] I shall theoretically thank you. :p [00:44] gogeta1: perhaps you can help benedict with an hdd issue? I don't know enough to be able to help troubleshoot [00:44] mickster04: lspci shows names of everything connected to thew pc if it knoes it [00:45] That's what I get for building my own computers from parts that I already know work with Ubuntu, I never have problems so I can't help much with troubleshooting [00:45] ardchoille: hdd prefornace verys alot where on the platters the os is the fs types the rpm the cache speeds and so on [00:45] compiz or metacity compositor [00:46] Bus 002 Device 009: ID 2222:4020 MacAlly <<< That is my gamepad as it shows up in lsusb [00:46] Announcement: compiz has a lot more flexibility and otions [00:46] http://imagebin.org/137287 ardchoille [00:46] nillerz: then the os sees it thats good [00:46] do you have to have #!/bin/bash at the begining of a script? [00:47] Announcement: compiz offer cool effects and 3D desktop, but slow and potentially buggy [00:47] psywiped: yes [00:47] http://imagebin.org/137287 ardchoille gogeta1 [00:47] psywiped: although I think !#/bin/sh will work also [00:47] benedict: hmm.. I wonder why mine is more steady across the graph [00:47] icarus-c: compiz isnt slow on decent hardware or very buggy [00:47] hello can som1 help me? [00:48] !ask [00:48] 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. :-) [00:48] icarus-c: but still unnedded [00:48] icarus-c: compiz isn't slow or buggy here [00:48] oh how switch back to compiz [00:48] gogeta1: try to run a 3D game with compiz on. (oh you have unredirect fullscreen window, but that often coz flickers) [00:48] i accidently did the other oen [00:48] For some reason on my computer there is no longer a sudo or apt-get command, among others. I haven't rebooted it or done any configuring for a while. Any clues as to what could have happened? [00:48] the os recognizes that there is a device plugged into usb, but it doesn't do anything with it. Is it perhaps calling it a mouse or something? It lets me use the controller to do basic (very basic) mouse tricks, but I can't click. [00:49] ardchoille: i also think about possible interpretations about my graph... but i expected it to be steady.... [00:49] too [00:49] icarus-c: i wouldent being if i wanna game i whant all my video cards resources [00:49] bwallen: whats it output when you enter "sudo su"? [00:49] ardchoille: well but i seen compiz crash from time to time :S with nvidia & official driver (which i guess is the best stack for 3D graphics) [00:49] i have a bash script and its returning if/then as unknow tokens [00:49] benedict: ok thats a benchmark of your hdd being i dont knoe the specks on the drives i cant say bad or good [00:49] psywiped: bash: sudo: command not found [00:50] bwallen: dpkg -l |grep sudo [00:50] how did you manage to screw your kernel? [00:50] benedict: yeah, your graph just doesn't feel right to me. I wish I knew how to solve this issue [00:50] Myles: paste the script [00:50] k [00:50] 1 sec [00:50] Myles: in !pastebin [00:50] pastebin? [00:50] ok [00:50] KBlJWQ: This isn't good - "bash: dpkg: command not found" [00:50] pastebin.ubuntu.com [00:51] bwallen: can you gain root? [00:51] just type ! pastebin and paste the script [00:51] benedict: if your using btrfs its known to crawl on some things [00:51] ? [00:51] btrfs [00:51] bwallen: What is the output of "echo $PATH"? [00:51] psywiped: No, but fortunately I still have a root session open [00:51] why in 2011 MP3 playback stutters when I swith windows or sometimes when I just move the mouse?? [00:51] wget?

Both the official server guide and the community documentation have led consistently to dead ends and I know I can't be the first one in history to attempt this. [00:55] doing so now [00:55] http://paste.ubuntu.com/565629/ [00:55] there u go [00:56] gogeta1: i use etx3 everywhere [00:56] it worked on a previous install [00:56] benedict: odd your geting such a preforance falloff [00:56] benedict: hardware issue maybe [00:57] gogeta1: yes... odd thing is that even my worst result equals the best result of ardchoille [00:57] benedict: i got a desktop with a half dead drive and it crawls but i knoe the drive is dieing i have had to wack it a few time just for it to sttartup [00:57] ardchoille: how mucht ime takes boot for you? do you boot into gnome?

[01:20] is there user dirs for lighttpd [01:20] researcher1: you want to actually create a bunch of users right? [01:20] brb [01:20] Jrib yes [01:20] Malqart: use externel install nivida drivers maybe [01:20] and now I have neither advanced video options (3D acceleration) nor sound from internal speakers (I get the sound on headphones though), since I'm using a dual boot, my windows seven too doesn't have sound anymore [01:20] researcher1: « man newusers » [01:20] Malqart: maybe that will fix it [01:20] ok [01:21] dobry wieczor :) [01:21] gogeta1, I just did install it, I don't get any video at all now, that's why I'm using X recovery mode [01:21] jrib:that appear right 4 me [01:21] Malqart: if thats a hp thats a known defect the headphone switch become jammed [01:21] gogeta1, and I'm using it again on the external VGA screen [01:22] gogeta1, it's a samsung Q210 .. [01:22] researcher1: yeah, you might find pwgen helpful to create the passwords too [01:22] Malqart: go to hardware then you should see your nivida driver listed to install [01:22] jrib how do i use pwgen [01:22] Malqart: maybe samsongs have the same defect [01:22] Malqart: sometimes unplugging and replugging the headphones quickly frees it [01:23] gogeta1: Mad7Scientst reading your former posts, let me remind you that i use a lenovo ideapad s12 laptop, that i never opened. i bouthg it new 2 years ago... here are the benchmarks of the hdd i posted before http://imagebin.org/137287 the right one is my benchmark...it looks odd [01:23] gogeta1, I did that, but when I install the nvidia driver, the system stucks on gdm login (I think) and it only works again when I delete the xorg.conf [01:23] researcher1: read the man page :) I used it like: $(pwgen -N 1) in a for loop to create the file that newusers read [01:24] jrib:ok.thanks [01:24] i'm trying to restore backups off an external usb drive formatted in exfat...got the fuse-exfat driver installed, but i can't acess my stuff [01:24] Malqart: man i rember someone with that bug and forgot how i fixed it heh [01:24] failed to get absolute path for `/dev/sdb1' [01:24] gogeta1: Mad7Scientst sudo hdparm -t /dev/sda resutls in Timing buffered disk reads: 192 MB in 3.01 seconds = 63.78 MB/sec [01:24] Malqart: its the video card thinking your ext is your primary monoter [01:24] gogeta1, how can I check that ? and correct it [01:25] benedict: naybe the benchmark program is lieing to you [01:25] maybe [01:25] gogeta1: who knows ^^ [01:25] Malqart: i guess in the configs after you install nivida driver [01:25] Malqart: it still should output to the ext [01:25] benedict, is the hard drive light on while it is stuck mounting it? === taka is now known as Guest72097 [01:26] Malqart: i just rember the bug not the fix heh [01:26] Mad7Scientst: it blinks in an unforseeable way... like reading something but not with full speed [01:26] gogeta1, any commands come to mind in order to correct that ? [01:26] gogeta1, oh ok [01:26] Malqart: i think i had him kill gdm via command line and force the output to the labby [01:26] benedict, maybe a part of the drive is failing, the part that gets read during mount [01:27] Malqart: yea now i rember [01:27] gogeta1, how to force the output ? [01:27] Malqart: restarting gdm correects it [01:27] Malqart: drop to command line service gdm restart === Atom-_ is now known as Atom- [01:28] gogeta1, ?? I did that after installing the nvidia driver, still didn't work [01:28] Malqart: eh his was more random sometimes it whent ext sometimes to the labby [01:28] Mad7Scientst: hm... but in that case fschk should be screaming like mad and also the ubuntu util shouldn't state that my hdd is fine. i also should come across constant readig problems... what is not the case [01:29] Malqart: have you tryed bypassing gdm? [01:29] gogeta1, how ? [01:29] Malqart: service gdm stop [01:29] then startx [01:29] mm [01:29] I'll tr that [01:29] *try [01:29] brb [01:29] Malqart: if anything it will tell why it crashes [01:30] How do I share files across my home network? [01:30] Mad7Scientst: what REALLY puzzels me is the graph of my benchmark... it's contantly going down... max. read speed is 68MB/s min read speed is 33MB/s [01:31] well ubuntu one can show theme from anywhere but from home network uhm.. jus a sec [01:32] Mad7Scientst: one thing i obeserved: when i press a key constantly during boot up the hdd lamp also starts to shine constantly [01:32] maybe it speeds up the read process... what would be VERY weired [01:32] Hi all, have Ubuntu 10.10 Netbook on a HP Mini, Auto Eth0 works fine but the Wireless Connection just sits there as shows the connecting icon and does not work. Anyone else hear of issues with HP Mini? [01:33] brokendatapoint: open a terminal and type "sudo jockey-gtk" to get a closed source driver... if there is one for your wifi-card [01:34] ah k [01:35] brokendatapoint: usually you'll have to restart after activating the driver [01:36] benedict: indeedy thank you [01:36] brokendatapoint: if you have the choic between 2 driver, use the one that has a STA in it [01:36] brokendatapoint: did it work? [01:37] Hello how can I switch the sun java plugin to the iced tea one in firefox? [01:37] benedict: k, my Aspire One works fine with open source, is just a friend's HP that is fussy, waiting...

Acer wins again [01:38] brokendatapoint: eee is auses [01:39] gogeta1: brokendatapoint ducks and runs in shame [01:39] lol [01:39] benedict: no, the jockey-gtk did not work [01:40] brokendatapoint: i guess you can just use the windows driver on the hp usind nids-wrapper [01:40] Need Help getting Operation not possible due to RF-Kill on Ubuntu 10.10 kernel 2.6.35-22 wifi Ralink rt3090sta but trying to use rt2860sta. [01:41] i have a p4 that's showing up as 2 separate processors in cpuinfo (it's a single core)...any ideas why? also, when i go to system monitor, it says cpu0 and cpu1...how can i tell my ACTUAL cpu usage...add them together and divide by 2? [01:41] brokendatapoint: hm, now all i could do is send you the links to the ubuntu forums... they helped me to get my wifi-card up and running... just google ubuntu wireless or something like that and goo for the ubuntu and ubuntu-wiki sites... they offer a quite forward troubleshoot strategy [01:41] Athenon, because its a dual core... or pseudo dual core ( hyperthreading ) [01:41] gogeta1: brokendatapoint nids-wrapper should be last resort... [01:41] benedict: thanks will do later, off into TRW ... gah [01:42] benedict: yea shure heh [01:42] psusi: ok, so it's hyper threaded? So...I can average the 2 usages to get my actual usage, then? [01:42] Athenon, if that is how you define actual usage, yes [01:43] psusi: my atom is hyperthreded heh doesent mean its a dule core [01:43] gogeta1, hence the pseudo part [01:43] psusi: to me, actual usage is 100% of all of my cpu power minus what's actually being used as a percentage. [01:44] psusi: my 64 bit amd dule core also hyperthreded leave my atom in the dust but pcs for diffrent uses [01:44] thank you but I've been trying for couple of days to get this Ralink card working according to the forums it should work and i've tried several things but nothing seems to work... [01:45] gogeta1, hyperthreading is an intel thing.. amd didn't do it [01:45] psusi: tell that to my amd being it does it [01:45] amd just went for actual dual core [01:45] what is the best way to get output of full system specs with Ubuntu? dmesg or something else? [01:45] no, it actually has dual cores ;) [01:45] psusi: hes hyper threded dule core shows as 4 [01:45] yes [01:46] psusi: gogeta1 hyper-threading for intel, hyper-processing is amd - in the end it's pretty mucht he same thing, except for plitting up the processin in different ways [01:46] processin = processes [01:47] afaik, amd never did anything like hyperthreading, they just went to actual dual cores... none of my amd boxes ever had anything like that anyhow... [01:47] psusi: yea amd made there own version as he said but they tend not to boast it rather just make more real cores like the phenom 6 core [01:48] gogeta1: Mad7Scientst thank you both for your time and patience! it helped me a a good bit... i appreciate that [01:48] * psusi fondly remembers his dual athlon MP 1.2 GHz of what? 10 years ago now? [01:48] of course that was two physical packages... [01:49] psusi: probly why the hyperporssing dule cores ddnt come around till like 2 years ago [01:50] hyperthreading was a cheap gimick stop gap measure to get some of the benefits of multi core without actually making a whole second core... there's no reason to add it now [01:50] psusi: hey i just said they did i ddint say why [01:50] exit [01:50] Hey, I have a problem regarding blue vertical flicker on my newly installed ubuntu 10.10 on my laptop, can anyone help me? [01:50] goofy... hrm... guess my athlon64 5000+ black edition was a little older than that [01:51] psusi: im running a ql-65 [01:53] Hello [01:54] psusi: yea i wasent expecting it to have i assumed it didnt being it was amd they they tend to shoot for real cores [01:54] anyone configured ubuntu/eclipse before? [01:55] What's going on? [01:55] tweefari: what's up? [01:55] frostero I use eclipse [01:55] i just tried to connect with rse and it told me connection refused datastore daemon not running [01:56] pring "( . )U( . )" [01:56] im not very familiar with setting up connections between eclipse and linux servers [01:56] agu10^: not cool [01:56] mickster04, why not? [01:56] agu10^: what's that about? [01:57] it's a python program [01:57] print "( . )U( . )" [01:57] what is the significance of posting it in here? -jw [01:58] so do i need to install sugar-datastore package for the daemon? [01:58] Hey, I have a problem regarding blue vertical flicker on my newly installed ubuntu 10.10 on my laptop, can anyone help me? [01:58] and frostero, unfortunately I just use it locally so Idk :( [01:58] agu10^: yeah not appropriate [01:58] mickster04, when is a python program not appropriate?

[01:59] agu10^: when it jhas nothing to do with ubuntu support, nor is it very family friendly [01:59] hello, is there a way from aptitude to know where the package will be installed? [01:59] mickster04, depends who your family is... [01:59] i'm talking about aptitude command line [01:59] :-) [02:00] mickster04, yes, that runs on ubuntu, but first type python[enter] [02:00] then type that [02:00] agu10^: regardelss actually [02:00] !ohmy [02:00] Please remember that all Ubuntu IRC channels share the same attitude of providing friendly and polite interaction with all users of all ages and cultures.

If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) [02:05] my hi mickster04 [02:05] the question comes here === dubstep420 is now known as webprojectx [02:05] I guess that's why you're in #ubuntu rather than #ubuntu-offtopic [02:06] when I boot my computer and select ubuntu as starting os, I get some initrfs prompt [02:06] I've googled it, but I can get it to work [02:06] I just wanted to save my files and reinstall the system [02:07] does anyone knows a way to do this? I've tried to mount the filesystem with a live cd but doesn't work [02:07] Okay, so, something is fundamentally wrong. I cannot boot from a live CD and liveUSBs of two different distros fail to boot in EXACTLY the same way. All I have left is cygwin. I need to find my linux partition, decrypt it, and fsck it.

[02:18] DaGeek247: so I will copy paste that command in the terminal? [02:18] and what exactly this command do? [02:18] yes then logout and in. it should fix it [02:18] DaGeek247: You're really a geek!

When ever I reboot the server I have to log on locally with my keyboard plugged into the server instead of just controlling it as usual through PuTTy. When I've logged on to it locally, it works just fine with the RSA-certificate again [02:39] KrabbaN: your home is encrypted? [02:39] Yes, I assumed that was the problem [02:39] !ssh | KrabbaN [02:39] KrabbaN: SSH is the Secure SHell protocol, see: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SSH for client usage.

[02:41] debian is working great as a live cd [02:41] matrix, Just try it. I bet it works fine :) [02:41] matrix join #lubuntu. [02:41] howdy all [02:41] has any1 tried on an old cpui??? [02:42] my computer is not reading the memory card, help [02:42] i've got a couple of questions [02:42] !ask [02:42] 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. :-) [02:42] matrix: seriously you are pushing into offtopic area, you haven't actually got a problem [02:42] matrix, my advice: If you have the money and your machine can support it, get 2GB of memory. All variants of Ubuntu can run fine on 2GB of memory [02:43] join #compiz [02:43] cant buy [02:43] matrix, Just try lubuntu on your machine [02:43] 1st: I have another hard drive mounted at mnt/HD2 in that I have Videos and Pictures ... I'd like these folders to be accessed at /home, I can get it to be like that, untill i reboot...i'm looking for a more perminate solution [02:44] matrix, how much memory does your machine have right now? [02:44] 128 mb ram [02:44] Hello, I am having some trouble with open-iscsi. I can see drives under fdisk -l ( /dev/dm-0 ) and create partitions, but they will not let me mkfs. it says "device is mounted" that being said, the device does not show up in the output of the mount command? any help would be appreciated school project. [02:44] but want a solid os not like puppy linux which i had [02:44] nybras use a symlink. [02:44] trying debian works great [02:44] but veeery [02:44] hard [02:45] matrix, I think you may be pushing it with Lubuntu. You may have to upgrade to 512MB of memory [02:45] thats why i want either linux mint fluxbox or lubuntu [02:45] and add the automount script to the startup [02:45] matrix, my advice for 128MB of RAM is go with Linux Mint. Its small enough. [02:46] I can't seem to SSH into my desktop from anywhere except from itself, any solution to this? [02:46] latagore: if you have a router, did you forward the ssh port correctly? [02:46] latagore, is your firewall stopping you? [02:46] jrib, it may be his iptables, not his router [02:46] it's always the router [02:46] mnaines: I wouldn't know how to check my firewall for Ubuntu [02:47] alright, i think ubuntu messed itself up [02:47] mnaines: I checked my router and I cleared that part up [02:47] it installed alright [02:47] latagore, are you trying to connect from within your network or outside? [02:47] latagore, if you haven't touched the firewall, then odds are it isn't even set [02:47] slavy: Both [02:47] then it said it needed to restart [02:48] hey guys i asked this question in kubuntu its actually for that system my question but maybe someone may help me here [02:48] dear god everythings going to hello, how are you guys doing? I am very sorry for popping up all the time asking annoying questions, If you can find it in your hearts to help one last time that will be so awesome. Here is my final problem hopefully, When i boot my computer and log-in through kdm my computer doesnt show any kind of widgets ie: all i have is a terminal and a background picture theres no splash, kmenu bar, widgets no nothing [02:48] just the plain old wallpaper and a terminal window that i can type in. this is how i got xchat up but besides that its looking pretty bad.... I installed knetworkmanager and it uninstalled a bunch of stuff dont remember what but now im stuck here sorry guys. (Thank You for your help in advanced.)

If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) [02:48] are you sure that linux mint will be ok for 128 mb ram??? [02:48] ok, i tried sudo ln -s /mnt/HD2/Videos /home/Videos .... didnt work [02:48] its stuck at init: plymouth-splash main process terminated with status 1 [02:48] latagore: | !ufw [02:48] pft [02:48] latagore, you are sure sshd is running, right? [02:49] !ufw | latagore [02:49] latagore: Ubuntu, like any other Linux distribution, has firewall capabilities built-in. The firewall is managed using the 'ufw' command - see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UFW | An alternative to ufw is the 'iptables' command - See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/IptablesHowTo | GUI frontends such as Firestarter/Gufw (Gnome) or Guarddog (KDE) also exist. [02:49] latagore: ufw makes it easy enough to manage it [02:50] latagore: just gotta open port 22 to the outside network for ssh [02:50] latagore: run « sudo iptables -L ». That will tell you whether or not it's a firewall issue [02:51] When Ubuntu boots up, why does it give a bunch of I/O errors but runs fine? [02:51] syphirx: bad iso [02:51] syphirx, do you have a cd in the drive? [02:51] can you helpme please with error 255 kernel compile? [02:51] nope [02:51] its just when i boot from the HDD [02:51] syphirx: dieing hdd or bad install [02:51] what do my windows appear like that of windows 3.1? compiz is on, I've chosen my theme [02:51] syphirx, what device are they for? sr0 ? [02:51] and I now have a sound scheme I never had before [02:52] edbian: im a bit of a noob [02:52] what do you mean? [02:52] syphirx: eyther the hdd has bad sectores or the install cd was bad [02:53] Turns out it was my firewall, thanks to all that helped [02:53] syphirx, the error message? What does it say exactly? Usually it lists the device the I/O errors are on. (sr0 is the cd rom drive) You can see the errors by pressing ctrl + alt + F1 and then ctrl + alt +F7 to get back to graphics (and use shift+page up to scroll) [02:53] Hello, I am having some trouble with open-iscsi. I can see drives under fdisk -l ( /dev/dm-0 ) and create partitions, but they will not let me mkfs. it says "device is mounted" that being said, the device does not show up in the output of the mount command? any help would be appreciated school project. [02:53] how can i tell if the hdd is bad or dying? [02:53] syphirx: run any number of tools to test it [02:54] syphirx, use a live CD and run gparted and use the check button (easiest way) but every 24 boots the system checks the hdd automatically for you [02:54] syphirx: i beleve unubtu has a tool that even tells you diskinfo or something like that [02:54] why 24 boots ? [02:54] MindWarper, IDK [02:55] edbian: when i switch to command line it just asks me to long in [02:55] MindWarper: you can inbvoke it manuly anythime if you qish [02:55] syphirx, apps -> system -> disk utility [02:55] invoke [02:55] no error messages [02:55] syphirx, switch to command line and try to scroll up using shift + page up [02:55] i just checked but my hardware isn't certified [02:55] syphirx: yea thats the one it would eyther have a green light or a ornge saying bad sectors replace soon [02:55] nothing [02:56] syphirx: then you probly installed from a bad iso [02:56] syphirx, mmmm, odd. What about in the disk utility thingy? [02:56] i wrote the cd with imgburn and verified it [02:57] and disk utility came back fine [02:57] syphirx: sometimes the isos themself are cruppt why we use md5 [02:57] but it was really quick [02:57] gogeta1: ahh [02:57] help with sd card reader, its not working [02:57] check on smart status [02:57] Ok odd question here. My school is looking at creating a min-cloud enviroment using Ubuntu cloud and some form of virtualization perhaps (virtualbox or vmware, or kvm). We got a lab ful of core 2 duos and a douzen or so older machines that coudl be used as well as networking equipment to connect them over 10/100 ethernet. The idea is more to get an experimental enviroment up and running to investigate for possable future classes on cl [02:57] oud computing and/or virutalization. Anyone here have any suggestions? [02:58] smart status says its healthy [02:58] anyone in here able to get ubuntu running on a emachine em250 netbook [02:58] use paraleles [02:58] syphirx: yea sounds like a bad cd [02:58] paraleles virtualization is the best [02:58] Mindwrapper: Was that for me? [02:59] yes [02:59] syphirx, I think the drive is fine. Next time you boot catch what the errors are regarding [02:59] linuxman410: install it find out [02:59] for that sort of thing [02:59] linuxman410: didnt even knoe emachines made a netbook [02:59] Not heard of paraleles virtualization but then again I am the student doing the initial research. (googling unless you have a good site to goto) [03:00] yeah it is a em250 [03:00] if I cancel an update and restart my computer, will the downloaded files remain, or will they need to be downloaded again? [03:00] linuxman410: didnt hp buy them so its probly just a knockoff hp mini built cheaper [03:01] i really dont want to reinstall ubuntu again [03:01] syphirx, If the only problem is vague I/O errors then just ignore them. [03:01] wolter: all will be fine meanwhile you don't turn off your pc unplugin it from the power source [03:02] syphirx, does dmesg list any problems? [03:02] xangua, lol its a laptop [03:02] syphirx: just jump foward and do dist upgrade [03:02] i think acer bought them [03:02] wolter: well it's the same, battery=power source [03:02] xangua, thanks though, the update is already at install stage, so I will let it continue [03:03] Thank you so much for the help, jrib! [03:03] linuxman410: i say other then maybe the wifi all netbooks are built the same so most everything if not everything should work [03:03] ok thanks [03:03] edbian: somethings like "end_request: i/o error, dev sdb, sector 264" [03:04] syphirx, there we go. /dev/sdb is your harddrive. [03:04] MindWarper: will that solve the problems [03:04] syphirx, It's having trouble reading some sector (which is an area on a circle) [03:04] !reset [03:04] !panel [03:05] edbian: so what do i do to fix that? [03:05] how to reset the panels? [03:05] !panels [03:05] To reset the gnome panel to defaults, type this in a !terminal: « gconftool --recursive-unset /apps/panel && killall gnome-panel » [03:05] syphirx, I'm researching hang on [03:05] dammit [03:05] linuxman410: and being its a acer knocker off the aspire one works out of the box linux i assume the emachine uses the same base hardware [03:05] tks bastidrazor [03:05] until i get screen replaced if i install with external monitor should not hurt nothing should it [03:06] linuxman410: lolk and its broken [03:06] syphirx, Do you have 2 hdd? [03:06] no, but i have an external [03:06] i am putting a screen in it tommorow ordered it [03:06] linuxman410: how mutch you pay for that broken emachine [03:06] syphirx, this is an error on the external most likely. Can you pastebin the output of sudo fdisk -l [03:06] 54 dollars [03:07] hattttt an machine [03:07] linuxman410: not to bad i guess but you can pick up referbed eee hab models for 150$ bucks [03:07] sure, one sed [03:07] sec* === alhen_ is now known as alhen [03:07] whats an emachine ? === alhen is now known as Guest64713 [03:08] well it has a 250 gig harddrive and a gig off ram and a 1.6 atom proccessor [03:08] MindWarper: they used to be a brand of cheap pc and a good brand but they whent downhill then bought by acer [03:08] how do i get the ubuntu alternet installer to reconize the usb drive enstend of the cd rom [03:08] hello [03:08] MindWarper: they still sell cheap pcs but i wouldent own one === Guest64713 is now known as alondra [03:09] Can I get a pong please? [03:09] MindWarper: i had one of there orignal ones thow a cyrax 333mhz and that things still alive [03:09] how do i get the ubuntu alternet installer to reconize the usb drive enstend of the cd rom [03:09] http://pastebin.com/zWMsnWSN [03:10] syphirx, That's the whole thing? /dev/sdb isn't listed there at all. Is the external no longer plugged in? [03:10] its encrypted and requires software to access [03:10] hi [03:10] skullboy: I guess you would need to change the boot sequence and settings in your bios if it supports usb boot [03:11] so it was connected but not active [03:11] syphirx, Ubuntu saw it on boot time. Perhaps the encryption made Ubuntu think there was an error. I'm not sure. [03:11] i have svn running on apache, how can i change it to run on a subdomain instead of /svn/ [03:11] should i reboot with it unplugged? [03:11] I'm having a problem. I have installed Ubuntu and everything was going well. Unfortunately, when I hooked up a wireless router, Ubuntu cannot find my wireless network. Any help? I'm in withdrawal === soon is now known as lee0w [03:12] how do i get the ubuntu alternet installer to reconize the usb drive enstend of the cd rom [03:12] syphirx, see what happens [03:13] syphirx, I almost guarantee the errors will go away [03:13] !wireless | Keith_ [03:13] Keith_: Wireless documentation, including how-to guides and troubleshooting information, can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs [03:13] skullboy, use the per session boot from key prompt look if the usb is there, f12 is common. [03:13] thanks [03:13] edbian: okay, that fixed it [03:14] but im having driver issues [03:14] nit-wit: no i can boot up off the usb but it says can not mount cd rom [03:14] ubuntu told me about availble drivers [03:14] syphirx, 'fixed it' meaning that Ubuntu can't see the hdd that might have errors. [03:14] got it working, thanks to all that helped :D [03:14] and downloaded and installed them [03:14] help help my servers are on fire [03:14] lol [03:15] syphirx, stop right now. Besides Ubuntu suggesting drivers have you had any reason to switch drivers? [03:15] well, i like to keep them up to date for video games [03:15] heh If your servers are on fire and your first thought is to ask IRC for help, you have bigger issues. :P [03:15] nit-wit: no i can boot up off the usb but it says can not mount cd rom [03:15] gogeta1: dont panic.. if you pour beer on the servers the insurance wont cover [03:15] hey does anyone know what would be the equivalent on tracert in ubuntu? [03:15] traceroute [03:16] joe_happy: mtr [03:16] syphirx, alright then. What driver is this all about? [03:16] mtr? [03:16] skullboy, I haven't had the pleasure of the alternate instal lfor awhile on a thumb just looking at google right now. [03:16] that goes in the terminal? [03:16] my trace route [03:16] graphics driver [03:16] syphirx, ati? [03:16] how does ubuntu know that my website (based on my ip) iis held in /var/www Where is this declared? [03:16] yup [03:16] mtr www.google.com .. will show you each hop to get to google and pings etc [03:16] JasonMSP, In the config files for apache [03:16] there hp racks they warrenty anything [03:16] i know ati is awful with linux [03:16] hehe [03:16] syphirx, That's fine. what driver are you running right now? [03:17] ati works great with linux [03:17] not exactly sure [03:17] how do i check [03:17] syphirx, lsmod [03:17] syphirx, be warned it's a messy output though! :) [03:17] lsmod | grep fglrx [03:17] edbian: i have virtual hosts setup for websites in apache. I don't actually declare my ip/website with the virtual host. it is coming from somewhere else. [03:17] How can I set it so numlock is on by default? [03:17] syphirx, use grep to to filter things === peregrinator_six is now known as user [03:18] JasonMSP, apache is the webserver. It can't be coming from anywhere else unless you're running another webs server [03:18] what should i be looking for [03:18] hilarie: bios [03:19] syphirx, there are two main drivers for ati, fgrlx and radeon [03:19] ^ [03:19] syphirx, sorry, that's fglrx [03:19] @mickster04 not an option there, vista does it for me though [03:19] hilarie: upgrade [03:19] hilarie: like right now [03:19] hilarie: uhm.... have yu updated your bios recent;y, I am surprised you dn't have that option [03:19] edbian: yup your right. there is a "default" setup that points it to that folder. [03:19] hilarie: are you using GNOME? [03:19] hilarie: vista is a horrid os [03:19] i get fglrx 2252898 33 [03:19] gogeta1: don't go there [03:20] @gogetal that may be true, but wine isn't perfect [03:20] and agpgart 32075 1 fglrx [03:20] who needs wine? just download linux software [03:20] hilarie: winds 7 is good [03:20] windows 7 [03:20] @Gogetal @Mickset04 laptop is out of warranty, am not flashing my bios for nothin! [03:20] syhpirx you're using fglrx if it's listed [03:20] okay [03:20] I have my sites in srv/www/ are there any good reasons for separating the hosted sites and the default one in two locations? [03:20] syphirx, yep, that's the proprietary closed source implementation [03:21] hilarie: a bios flash is easy [03:21] hilarie: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/NumLock === kitchen is now known as Guest10488 [03:21] @mickster Can't a bio's fail to flash and brick the laptop? [03:21] okay, now how can i get rid of the graphics glitches [03:21] hilarie: most pc makers offer some easy tools to do it [03:21] JasonMSP: i have 2 sites using apache. one points to /var/www/html and the other points to /var/www/linus. they're consider 2 compelelety different sites and you cant access content from one from the other [03:22] hilarie: i had to do my tosiba being my hotkeys didnt work in 7 simple download and click done [03:22] http://linux.jack-server.com [03:22] jack_: virtual host? [03:22] yes [03:22] edbian: so what now? [03:23] hilarie: if you turn the power off half way thru? but just plug it in with a full battery and you'll be fine [03:23] hi i having problems to start my X because my nvidia someone can give me a light to resolve this? [03:23] syphirx, well I'm not sure. Do you want to switch? What is Ubuntu telling you? [03:23] jack_: thanks. I host multiple sites out of /srv/www the one associated with our ip though is based out of /var/www would there be a good reason to split the website of the localhost to that separate folder? [03:23] @mickster Good point [03:23] PingaR0x: which drivers are you using? the ones that are package with ubuntu? or the ones from nvidia.com? [03:23] I will do it when my new laptop gets here in a week :) [03:23] hilarie: genrely a flash goes horrdly wrong if they downloaded the wrong bios [03:23] JasonMSP: only if you make a reason i guess, give me an example of what is a hosted site and what is a default site, like me.com and here.me.com? [03:23] edbian: what do you mean by switch? [03:23] jack_: from ubuntu i just made a fresh install [03:23] to my note [03:23] skullboy, how did you load the thumb? [03:24] hilarie: if you're getting a new laptop, that won't nee dflashing? [03:24] JasonMSP: the localhost? i wouldn't htink that would make a difference. its good to make that change if you're hosting 2 diff sites from 2 diff URLs but have hte same IP [03:24] syphirx, You have a choice to use either the radeon driver (open source) or fglrx (proprietary). [03:24] nit-wit: unetbootin [03:24] syphirx, Youc an switch between them ;) [03:24] @Mickster04 and it will be under warrenty :) [03:24] skullboy, strange shoul work. [03:24] oh, i just want the one that works [03:24] hilarie: you've heard of tab complete? [03:25] because its late and i need sleep [03:25] syphirx, then you have it [03:25] JasonMSP: for example, emotioncoaster.serveblog.net and linus.jack-server.com and hosted on the same box, but the apache sends them to diff locations. the files do not intersect at all. i cant access content from linus from emotion coaster or vise versa. [03:25] syphirx, :) [03:25] !tab [03:25] You can use your key for autocompletion of nicknames in IRC, as well as for completion of filenames and programs on the command line. [03:25] @mickster04 tab complete? [03:25] see above [03:25] edbian: but i havent fixed the graphical errors [03:25] mickster04: guess hes scared of flashing his bios guess thers still some risk to it but i did 2 labbys without issue one with a windows tool and one with a usb boot image [03:25] syphirx, graphical errors? [03:25] jack_: have any idea to solve this? [03:25] glitchy menus [03:26] gogeta1: they, not he [03:26] PingaR0x: what happens when you boot? [03:26] nit-wit: yea but it trys to install off the cd rom insted of the usb [03:26] gogeta1: i have never had a problem flashing a bios [03:26] syphirx, well that might be a bug in compiz, not the driver. But you can switch like this: sudo modprobe radeon then restart the machine [03:26] /usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lQtGui /usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lQtCore why is this, both are installed. [03:26] jack_: X doenst start... [03:26] it's a bit more tense when you have a pc to flash [03:26] but it seems to only happen at the login screen and when i shutdown/startup [03:26] jack_: i only have one ip. Im running virtualhost files i think in similar fashion which direct to seperate files which contain the websites. They are somewhat chrooted so users can FTP into their folder but not get anywhere else. [03:26] skullboy, [03:26] PingaR0x: you just get a terminal prompt? [03:26] mickster04: oh i had a briked a nivida card once luckly was able to debrick [03:26] jack_: yup [03:26] skullboy, not sure how to fix oit [03:26] JasonMSP: ok. thats the same setup as mine. [03:27] mickster04: i think most newer pcs have protection agenst bad flashes older pca didnt [03:27] PingaR0x: what happens when you `startx`? [03:27] im wondering why in the initial setup though that the URL locahost is directed to the var folder. [03:27] jack_: w8 a sec i will do that again [03:27] (using the default apache virtualhost filder) [03:27] JasonMSP: add a new VirtualHOst with servername 'localhost' and it will point where you want it to. [03:27] mickster04: so iv seen flashes go wrong heh [03:28] jack_: say no screen found [03:28] JasonMSP: at install apache config defaults to /var/www you can change it [03:28] JasonMSP: but i think the defaults are higher in the config file [03:28] PingaR0x: what does /var/log/Xorg.0.log say? [03:28] edbian: i switched and its still bugging out [03:28] nit-wit: well do you know what config files to mod [03:28] syphirx, confirm the switch by running lsmod again. [03:29] mickster04: my eee for example you can totaly brick the flash but it goes into a reflash mode if the bios fail so you can debrick [03:29] sacarlson/jask_: yeah your both right. its in the sites-enabled folder called default. the default virtualhost file is a little more complex than the others and directs it to the var folder. I was just wondering if there really is a need to have them separate. [03:29] gogeta1: odd, my eee flashed fine :P [03:29] jack_: EE no devices detected, fatal error server no screens found [03:29] edbian: still on fglrx [03:29] JasonMSP: I think that if the virtualhost is not matched, it goes to the default "DocumentRoot "/var/www/html"" [03:29] but i executed the command fine [03:29] syphirx, did you run modprobe radeon [03:29] PingaR0x: does `lspci` show your video card make and model? [03:29] yup [03:29] mickster04: it did for me to i just knoe it has that protection [03:29] no errors [03:30] jack_: nvidia 310M its a dell vostro 3300 [03:30] syphirx, did you restart? [03:30] yup [03:30] ed === The_Doctor is now known as Ttech [03:30] !netsplit [03:30] netsplit is when two IRC servers of the same network (like freenode) disconnect from each other, so users on one server stop seeing users on the other. If this is happening now, just relax and enjoy the show. See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Netsplit [03:30] syphirx, sudo apt-get remove fglrx [03:30] Oops. Sorry about that; I guess that cable was important. [03:30] syphirx, we'll get rid of the package entirely [03:30] holy crap that was a huge split [03:31] 52 people split out of over 1450, it's not that bad from where I sit. [03:31] removing it [03:31] PingaR0x: do you get anything when you type `lsmod | grep nvidia`? [03:31] normaly its only a few [03:31] JasonMSP: It's like I can have 10 domain names with different sites on them all on the same ip with appache, if the person comes in with the name show.com he goes to my show site. if they come in on my name domain boots.com site it sends him to another dir with total different site. [03:31] jack_: yep... [03:31] aaah, 4:30pm, time to crack open a cold one [03:32] nvidia gt 218 [geforce 310m] [03:32] PingaR0x: it says that for lsmod? [03:32] mickster04: Nothing like a cold jolt cola. [03:32] indecipherable: this is work, and that means beer :D [03:32] edbian: alright [03:32] its removed [03:32] now what? [03:32] jack_: lspci [03:32] Hello, I want to move to linux but Im not sure my hardware allows that. I have an ATI Radeon 5750 HD card, will I have a lot of trouble getting it to work? [03:32] PingaR0x: what about lsmod? [03:33] sacarlson: sure. thats the point of using virtual hosts. I think the answer is that apache default installs to the var/www folder and it really doesn't matter where on the directory i point each site to [03:33] Phreakish: no, working well may be a different matter though [03:33] jack_: let me check 1 min [03:33] syphirx, restart [03:33] Phreakish: this is what the live CD is for - you can try it without installing [03:33] Phreakish: depends what you mean by work. ati drivers are pretty terrible, but you will get graphics. You may want to try wubi first to see how ubuntu works. if you like it you can switch. [03:33] sacarlson: whereas when i setup my virtualhost files i pointed them all to /srv/www [03:33] syphirx, sometimes fglrx is stubborn and you have to remove it [03:33] mickster04, so I will have problems getting hardware accelration working? [03:34] doesn't really matter for security issues or anything else where you place each individual site. [03:34] Phreakish: maybe [03:34] edbian: i remember dealing with it in openSUSE [03:34] it was a pain [03:34] syphirx, :) [03:34] It is a pain [03:34] Phreakish: just install it as a second OS and test - it will probably be fine - just stick with 10.4 and not 10.10 [03:34] JasonMSP: you can point your directories anywhere. the url you type in will set where you end up. if you go to 'localhost' you'll probably end up somewhere different then typing '127.0.0.1' or your FQDN [03:34] jack_: video 22176 1 i915 and also have a line nvidia 10634091 0 [03:35] the software sources gui app also seems to think that the updates are 3rd party software for some reason [03:35] why should I stick to 10.4? [03:35] Phreakish: 10.10 is fine [03:35] Phreakish: 10.04 is the LTS [03:35] edbian: alright, now its trying to boot but its just a black screeb [03:35] screen* [03:35] JasonMSP: I'm not sure it is posible that apparmor is setup on apache2 so if you move it to something outside /var/www you might also need to change apparmor settings. I would have to look at that to be sure [03:35] syphirx, lsmod | grep radeon === grim76^ is now known as grim76 [03:35] I'm guessing at this point that radeon doesn't like your card [03:36] I need help with a keyboard problem. [03:36] syphirx: wait till 11 and we all switch to kde couse of unity heh [03:36] PingaR0x: you can probably try switching to a generic driver. It used to be vesa but i dont know what it is these days. you may need to google it. [03:36] edbian: i cant do anything [03:36] syphirx: my buddy is testing alpha and he says unity is totaly horrid [03:36] gogeta1: that could be because it's alpha :P [03:36] When I installed ubuntu I picked the wrong keyboard layout by accident. [03:36] edbian: force restart? [03:37] my friend, who requested a pack of ubuntu cds a few years ago, wants to request a cd of the latest. he has a very low bandwidth cap and can't download the cds, but the site is saying he can't request any more [03:37] jack_ im using failsafe to try find a clue! [03:37] syphirx, can you log in? [03:37] jack_: naa its in 10.10 netbook its still horrid [03:37] jack_ btw thanks [03:37] nopw [03:37] PingaR0x: why? what happens when you boot normally? [03:37] gogeta1: it's still an alpha :P [03:37] edbian: just a black screen [03:37] syphirx, oh, this might get ugly. Yeah restart [03:37] syphirx, ctrl + alt + F1 doesn't do anything? [03:37] gogeta1: it's been released for all of what, 2 releases? other desktop environements have been out for years [03:38] Does anyone know how to change the (default) keyboard layout in ubuntu? [03:38] edbian: restarting [03:38] gogeta1: plus i believe they're hurting themselves by ditching gnome. now they have less developers working on a single project which hurts both paths.l [03:38] now its just a black terminal [03:38] what steering whelels ar supported by ubuntu ? [03:38] syphirx, can you log in? [03:38] asking me to log in [03:38] Jeffrey_: System -> Prefereces -> Keyboard [03:38] jack_: unity was made couse they dont like gnome shell. and it is gnome still just with a diffrent ui stacked on it a bad one [03:38] yeah [03:38] /usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lQtGui /usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lQtCore why is this, both are installed. (NVM missing symbolic linkie from *.so.4 to *.so) [03:38] root or my account? [03:39] biker: do you have qt installed? [03:39] syphirx, at all [03:39] syphirx, oh, log in as you [03:39] icarus-c is there a way to do it to where the core of ubuntu is using that layout and not just Gnome? [03:39] gogeta1: that's because canonical hasn't provided anything back to the upstream in years. they're one of the lowest contributors to open source :( [03:39] what brand of steering wheels are supported by ubuntu ? [03:39] icarus-c, yep, i had to do ln -s libQtGui.so.4 to libQtGui.so [03:39] it keeps switching back on me. [03:39] edbian: okay [03:39] now what? [03:40] And I can't delete the other layout. [03:40] jack_: they make debaion easy and thats a huge one [03:40] syphirx, lsmod [03:40] see which driver is running [03:40] gogeta1: that's true but if they keep that up they'll be the next apple in no time. [03:40] jack_: but there gnome ui replacment is bad at best [03:40] lsdeamon [03:41] sacarlson: i don't think im running apparmor unless it is built into apache2 [03:41] edbian: radeon [03:41] syphirx, startx [03:41] no screens found [03:41] JasonMSP: it's built into ubuntu after 9.X or something like that and i checked and I see apache in apparmor but I'm not sure how it's configured [03:42] how can i look what firmware installed on my computer for wireless [03:42] What is the difference between squeeze-updates and squeeze-proposed-updates ? [03:42] Jeffrey_: a little google search give me this https://help.ubuntu.com/community/LocaleConf [03:42] sorry [03:42] syphirx, You should install fglrx and use that. sudo apt-get install fglrx and restart the machine [03:42] for sheeezle my neeZle [03:43] sacarlson: really? wow. [03:43] icarus-c thanks man :) [03:43] hellyeah: isn't hte firmware on the card itself? if not, it'll be in the driver [03:43] edbian: downloading. how do i restart from terminal? [03:43] hey you guys... i want to my ccna certification; however, i don't know which book to read...any ideas? [03:43] edbian, sudo reboot [03:43] cannonfodder: wat. [03:43] jack_: personaly i use lxde these days. but i think with 11 where gonna see people move away from gnome couse of unity kde xfce lxde [03:43] syphirx, sudo shutdown -r now [03:43] The libc that is linked to by gcc within Ubuntu - is that also maintained by the GNU project? [03:43] Guest10488, thanks [03:43] oops [03:44] hello, i'm trying to fix a problem i have with ffmpeg, i get "libx264.c:308: undefined reference to `x264_encoder_open_114'" when i run make install, i compile x264 my self, any thoughts? === Guest10488 is now known as DiscoBurrito [03:44] cannonfodder: I used the Sybex CCNA study guide [03:44] edbian: alright, restarting [03:44] syphirx, awesome [03:44] matthew [03:44] cannonfodder: ISBN: 978-0-470-11008-9 [03:44] ediban distroy [03:44] I used WUBI and finally solved my MBR issue; forgetting my board doesn't detect SATA drives without drivers; so I needed to edit my MBR, format my partition and now I'm shrinking my Windows partition because it's on my SATA2 adapter and for one reason or another it's recognized as a USB disk. So after this long shrinking process I can reinstall with Wubi and finally have a stable ubuntu dual [03:44] install [03:45] jack_: this is my concern [03:45] i try to install debian debian asks for additional firmware [03:45] and i put firmware into my usb [03:45] edbian: still getting the graphics errors but i have a gui now [03:45] but i dont know what firmware is really valid for me [03:45] i have atheros br9287 wireless card [03:45] hellyeah: what card are you using? [03:45] ah [03:45] jack_ thanks [03:46] what brand of steering wheels are supported by ubuntu ? [03:46] sup all? i have a wusb600n wifi adapter and im just wondering why this isnt working with ubuntu live since it has been out for 2 years [03:46] syphirx, We didn't change anything. We removed fglrx, learned that radeon won't work, and put fglrx back in place. I would say you're stuck with that grahpics driver [03:46] i need to learn that do you have a clue [03:46] bt4/ubuntu [03:46] edbian: great... well, should i just try updating everything? [03:46] en1gma: they never relesed the drivers for it or nobody hacked up oss drivers however that card works fine with nids-wrapper [03:46] bt4 ? [03:47] hellyeah: http://wiki.debian.org/ath9k [03:47] syphirx, yeah. That's the best tactic. Ubuntu has some bugs. That's the con of having new and fun software :) [03:47] thanks thanks thanks [03:47] MindWarper: I dont' believe any specific brand of steering wheels are supported by ubuntu. i would search google and look for success stories [03:47] you are number one [03:47] gogeta1 if i boot my computer with ubuntu live dvd and i have no corded net what do i have to do to make it work [03:47] edbian: how do i do that? i had the critical updates window before but now its gone [03:47] en1gma: you may need to enable the proprietary drivers if you haven't already. [03:48] yes bt3 was on slax or slckware [03:48] syphirx: System->Administration -> Update manager [03:48] yea im pretty sure i did [03:48] I'm trying to run a jar file from .xinitrc in my home directory. it runs fine from terminal inside gnome but it won;t load automatically, any ideas what i'm missing? [03:48] you make me feal good [03:48] guys big problem [03:48] syphirx, system -> admin -> update manager [03:48] i broke the terminal [03:48] Success: dun dun dunnnnnnnnn [03:48] hi guys [03:48] how do i revive it [03:48] Success, type reset, press enter [03:48] en1gma: the cd has nids wrapper on it with the gui. you ned to downlaod the drivers being the cd hides the nedded inf file. then install it [03:48] Success: hit ctrl+alt+f4 [03:48] no i mean the terminal wont even open [03:48] Kubuntu 10.10: how can i add French language pack to write a document in french?I installed the language pack but the language indicator doesn't show it,what should i do?

[03:49] i have doubt regarding virtual hosts [03:49] syphirx, that might not fix the bugs :) === ngomes__ is now known as Bop [03:49] satya: orly?

[03:50] so i need the inf file eventhough the drive is under n? [03:50] syphirx, Yes, perhaps compiz is new in this release and compiz has the bugs.

I just want access to interneal disk, I don't want sync anything just make it should like thrumb drive [03:50] satya: note that apache and various web servers support virtualhosts [03:50] Hey, is there any way that I can be prompted for a password before booting all the way into the OS? [03:51] edbian: very true [03:51] en1gma: nids wrapper is on the cd you need to download the windows driver for your wifi card you can install the nids wrapper gui to to make it easyer [03:51] EmuAlert: check your bios for a password option. [03:51] welk im gonna go to bed and let this update. ill catch you later [03:51] EmuAlert: i also believe you can put a password on grub... but i think its just to edit grub. look into that.

[04:11] if you dont put anything after the update part you get a blank line to then put it in and have to then hit enter [04:11] satya: if you modified the /etc/hosts file it might overide the bind9 settings, is that what you mean?

[04:21] satya: what happens when you try to connect to the other? does it not resolve? do you get the incorrect content? [04:21] jack12345: not with generic descriptions like that. :P what kind of error? [04:21] jack_:it does not resolve it [04:22] jack12345: http://www.ubuntu.com/desktop/get-ubuntu/upgrade [04:22] jack_: there is no nameservers and ip adress in /etc/resolve.conf when i connect to wireless [04:22] jack_: there is no nameservers and ip adress in /etc/resolve.conf when i connect to wireless [04:22] satya: if you ping both names from your client and it resolves the ip of your apache2 server then your problem is not dns at this time it's apache configs you need to work on. [04:22] abhilash: put them in there [04:22] An unresolvable problem occurred while calculating the upgrade: [04:22] E:Error, pkgProblemResolver::Resolve generated breaks, this may be caused by held packages.

[04:24] jack12345: sometimes it needs a refesh [04:24] jack_: i created the internal.example.com and reviews.example.com sites [04:24] jack_: ok i'll do it, thanks buddy!! [04:24] jack_: the ubuntu box should ping if the dns server points them to his ubuntu box that has the apache server running [04:24] jack12345: run this: apt-get clean & apt-get auto clean & apt-get update & apt-get upgrade & apt-get dist-upgrade [04:24] gogetal: yes i pressed it thrice, and it didnt show me any new packages. Its after that that i clicked upgrade. [04:25] abhilash: that will only be a temp. fix === Vixie is now known as Fluttershy [04:25] abhilash: if your wireless card uses dhcp, your dhcp is not assignging your nameservers correctly [04:25] jack12345: k normaly thats what makes the update maage mess up guess not this time [04:25] satya: can you ping both sites? [04:25] satya: as in.. do you get returned packets when you type in 'ping site1' and 'ping site2'? [04:26] @jack_ : it says unable to lock download directory [04:26] jack12345: thats probably cos they all ran at once. my bad. try running each part one at a time [04:26] jack_: satya: the virtualhost part is just the header of the packet that points apache2 to the correct domain directory [04:26] satya: ^ [04:27] jack_: i get the response from reviews.example.com only [04:27] jack12345: you gotta close out everything else using apt that includes the updater and there sudo commands [04:27] @jack_ : same error with the first one alone too [04:27] satya: what is the IP of the server? [04:27] ah okay [04:27] jack12345: its probably still doing stuff in the background [04:27] jack_: 10.0.0.4 [04:28] hmm, I closed all windows except IRC, firefox [04:28] still the same error [04:28] satya: type this in your client terminal [04:29] satya: 10.0.0.4 internal.example.com >> /etc/hosts [04:29] jack12345: do ps -A see whats using apt like if the updater is still running in the backround and kill it [04:29] satya: then try to ping it again [04:29] * jack_ takes the dogs outside. brb.

[04:31] gogetal : I did do a restart and tried this upgrade again... [04:31] jack12345: genrely sysanptic and update-manager would be them and as i said they are sudo commands [04:32] jack_: can we create bind server for the virtual hosts that holds the same ip address [04:32] satya: you said you could ping both domain name with the same return of 10.0.0.4, so then pastebin the apache config file so we have an idea what the problem might be [04:33] anything else that I could try? [04:33] or skip the first apt-get clean? [04:33] sacarlson: can we create bind server for the virtual hosts that holds the same ip address [04:33] jack12345: sudo apy-get clean [04:33] apt [04:33] satya: yes [04:33] satya: yes [04:33] satya: something is wrong if you can ping 10.0.0.4 but you cant ping 10.0.0.4 [04:34] jack_: how to do it?

I personally haven't done it but maybe once, and it's probably wrought with caveats. [04:43] eyceberg: are you actually using sftp or did you just ssh to the server? if you're in a bash shell it sounds like plain ol' ssh to me [04:43] eyceberg: there you go. try this instead [04:43] @gogetal : ok.

[05:06] >1MS [05:06] This issue is being replicated on a 2nd laptop with ubuntu, the same 2nd laptop in win7 [05:06] It's like my ISP isn't allowing new connections or something [05:06] hilarie: perhaps [05:07] hilarie: you can ping yoru gateway and yourslef though right? [05:07] It's freakin Crazy [05:07] Jeffrey_: it just works for me, how do you know your alt key isn't recognized? might look at System>preference>keyboard [05:07] I can ping myself, my router, my 2ndary DNS, but I can't ping my ISPs mailserver, or anything off my island [05:07] And yet, here I am [05:07] dkks [05:07] hilarie: maybe somebody tripped over the cable connecting the two routers [05:08] hilarie: maybe you are connected through a local proxy? [05:08] hilarie, ping could be blocked on whatever youre pinging [05:08] hilarie: I guess it's a dns problem? dig yahoo.com [05:08] Not that I am aware of, its my DSL modem to router 1, from router 1 to router 2 [05:08] any other suggestions guys? [05:09] hi all [05:09] sacarison: well for one none of the shortcut work with that key and also I clicked the show button on the layout and it shows up as ISO_L for some reason.

[05:09] abhilash: ok reading [05:09] sec [05:09] you mean do tracert? [05:09] yes [05:09] abhilash: if its not connected you wont have a gateway. if you are connected you can add the gateway with 'route add default gw 192.168.0.1' or w/e your gw is [05:10] im trying hard to get triple monitors working again with 10.10. i did it before but i cant for the life of me get it to work again. i was wondering if anyone here uses triple monitors and if so i could get a look at their xorg.conf file? [05:10] Phantom yea [05:10] hilarie: i woudl assume that your DNS is down. how did you connect to freenode? [05:10] hmmm i was watching and someone said wi-fi then dsl [05:10] ^Phantom^, exactly [05:10] abhilash: yup, you have no default gateway at all, do you have it setup as static or with auto dhcp? [05:10] <^Phantom^> DaGeek247, tucemiux, thank you [05:10] Jack this is what I want to know! [05:10] sacarlson: i have done it auto dhcp, i can also do static, which is better to do? [05:10] hilarie: if you are unable to ping a nameserver that you should be able to ping i would assume that it is down. [05:10] hilarie, perhaps in dns cache? [05:11] ^ [05:11] hilarie: can you ping 74.125.65.99? [05:11] What is DNS Cache, I would google it, but, you know... [05:11] abhilash: well the dhcp should have returned you a gateway so try sudo dhclient wlan0 see what the dhcp give you [05:11] I can ping that [05:11] troll?? o_O [05:11] :) [05:11] local DNS servers will cache results so they dont have to keep asking their parents [05:12] hilarie: put it in your webbrowser [05:12] <^Phantom^> jack_, you seem to be popular again lol [05:12] and try to navigate to it [05:12] Last Call please....: any other suggestions by anyone on resolving my upgrade error?

[05:12] i tried google for an hour before i came to IRC :D [05:13] hilarie set your dns to open dns servers see if you have more luck - 208.67.222.222 208.67.220.220 [05:13] If only my ISP had a person there after 5pm [05:13] jack12345: but you didn't try what i todl you to try right? that was the first result on google [05:13] Hi. Ubuntu 10.10. What is the cmd in terminal to restart ALSA? [05:13] hilarie: what island are you on?

[05:13] anyone using multiple monitors on ubuntu willing to let me see their xorg.conf file? [05:14] jack12345: yeah. its peculiar that you're hitting this. [05:14] the error doesn't give much insight on tot what hte issue is. maybe a logfile will? check in your /var/log directory to see if you get any more output [05:14] jack12345: ^ [05:14] What is an open DNS? [05:14] hilarie: its a DNS server that is public on the internets [05:15] log dir has a bunch of files...which one should i look at? [05:15] hilarie,, has 2 routers and doesnt know what open DNS is o_O [05:15] better reliability, or if my local DNS borks would I still be borked [05:15] jack12345: the most recently updated. do an 'ls -lart' the latest will be at the bottom [05:15] jack_: sacarlson: http://pastebin.com/CY6EjbPq here is the output for sudo dhclient wlan0 [05:15] how to set the pathname? [05:15] hilarie: the ideal situtation is that your local dns gets fixed [05:15] hilarie set your dns to the ips I gave you [05:15] @Tucemiux I just turned off the DHCP and made the IP on the 2nd router .2 vs .1 [05:16] Viru-N, typically in your .bashrc but I could be wrong, it depends on the shell that you use [05:16] abhilash: i think you're supposed to get a dhcp offer there [05:16] those IP's are unreachable at this time, no ping [05:16] is there any file named by .bash_profile?

[05:17] GeekyAdam: no. twinview [05:17] Yeah [05:18] abhilash: password means it's encryted, with wep or wpa? [05:18] i want learn about the C/C++ [05:18] I have no issues on my end.

[05:18] jack_: im trying to setup seperate x screens for each monitor. had it before but reinstalled now i cant figure it out. [05:18] Viru-N: wat [05:18] yes [05:19] GeekyAdam: if you're using nvidida why not use the nvidia gui utility? :D [05:19] Might not be THEIR problem, it might be YOUR problem. Like wireing in your house, or possibly your modem [05:19] sacarlson: It asks for password, i give it. It works from windows 7 [05:19] in ubuntu mysql is not working [05:19] jack_: tried. still not working right.

[05:21] GeekyAdam: twinview makes 2 monitors act as one viewing plane and you can drag windows bakc and forth [05:21] abhilash: well if it asks it must see the Access point why won't the dhcp respond? [05:21] can anybody help me regarding mysql,it is not getting connecting [05:21] vishal: is it started?

Gparted can be ofund on the Ubuntu LiveCD and in the Software Centre.

Launch the LiveCD to "trial" it and it's in System->Administration I believe [05:26] thinks [05:27] :D [05:27] jack_: Starminn: guess i was a bit concerned since the native OS on this device is winXP and whether while in a ubuntu partition, i could use an ubuntu tool to take hard drive space away from XP. if that makes any sense [05:27] How do I customize the Unity application search shortcuts? [05:27] sacarlson: jack_ : So what should i do with my dhcp or gateway to work with wireless??

[05:27] jack_: alrighty, so do the normal install, grab gparted, then use that to expand space [05:27] maco: do you have multiple monitors? [05:28] abhilash: i think you're having driver issues with your card. if you are unable to connect at all. you could also try going into the settings and removing hte *saved* password and re-enteirng it manually when you try to connect [05:28] I'd never had such a probelem with ubuntu from 2 years!! wireless...... [05:28] Abhijit: M looking on that [05:28] cabbie-w7: i'd say make the changes befor ethe install. [05:28] abhilash: you need to get your connection working I assume, since your dhcp server fails to respond I think it's encrytped and data not making it to the ap [05:28] cabbie-w7: you can use the livecd [05:28] GeekyAdam: not right now. i used to hook up my laptop to a larger screen at work [05:28] ie, ssh my_host works, but when i say "scp myfile my_host", it thinks my_host is a filename [05:28] jack_: no it is not working === DarkLoad is now known as antilles [05:28] vishal: i am unsure. :( sorry [05:28] jack_: where is the password settting?

It asks me to choose of 3 options: (install alongside other operating systems), (erase and use the entire disk), and (specify partitions manually). From this link it seems that if I want to customize the space of how much ubuntu gets under step 4: http://www.ubuntu.com/netbook/get-ubuntu/download I need to choose (specify partition [05:35] cabbie-w7: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.

[05:57] cabbie-w7, ok - try it just for fun :) [05:58] well what i want to do is install ubuntu but give it more hard drive space. jack recommended going into the trial version then using gparted to expand it? im not sure how to get from A to B [05:59] cabbie-w7, could you not just have booted from a gparted livecd? [06:00] on a thumb drive [06:00] cabbie-w7: Wait, wait, wait, so Ubuntu is not installed yet? (LiveCD = any portable media, basically) [06:00] i went from instructions from here: http://www.ubuntu.com/netbook/get-ubuntu/download [06:00] no its not [06:00] installed [06:00] cabbie-w7: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.

[06:02] cparker: is that even a question? [06:03] g_0_0: i originally dualbooted into ubuntu with the standard install, but it only gave it 18-ish gigs. i had to wipe my netbook, and want to give ubuntu around 40 gigs of space. IIRC jack said to go into the trial version then use gparted. My goal is to get ubuntu installed with 40 gigs to play with. [06:05] cabbie-w7, you mean boot from a livecd ( on a thumbdrive) when you say trial version ? [06:08] hey, how can I figure out of a filesystem is fat32 or fat16? df -T lists it as vfat [06:09] 1 === arbitrary2 is now known as arbitrary [06:11] cabbie-w7: jack_ said that because him (and I as well) were under the assumption that you had it installed already. SO what you want to do is just install Ubuntu normally "alongside another operating system" (if one exists) and drag the slider to "40GB".

[07:18] no need graphical for that... use vi or nano [07:19] era878: For Office 2007 by the way you could try WINE. I hear it mostly works with a bit of tinkering [07:19] xs1: so you did not complete the install? === kevin__ is now known as pixme [07:19] what vi and/or nano??

[07:31] and then firefox localhost... how can I do that? [07:31] change the read/write permission for the files you are trying to modify you must be root to change permission on most things in the /etc folder [07:32] era878: if i try whit user root i get filesystem read-only [07:33] hey there, i'm trying to connect to a Google Talk account with Empathy and it just comes back immediately saying "network error" - my net however is working fine. any ideas?? [07:33] well... i found out my prob, it was the (windows) dhcp server, i soo love linux... [07:33] did you use sudo?

[07:34] era878: if have tried also sudo [07:34] grendal_prime, try #openssh [07:34] like say someone is sshed into my server. Is it possible for me to ustilize that same tunnel to get to there machine? [07:34] hey guys! Anyone had any success setting up exchange mail on linux, not using imap etc,,? :) [07:34] era878: i have tried also sudo [07:34] GrimmVarg, sync it with your google account. call it a night.

Wouldn't bother. [07:37] hi can anyone help me with mooshak installation [07:38] i've got an intel i5 machine, which supports kvm. would like to use it, but it's all new to me. Could i just install Ubu-desktop on it and then install and use kvm? anyone did this be4? [07:38] just the deep southside [07:38] everywhere else is pretty good [07:38] i been to detroit its a diff story there jeez [07:38] era878: in phase of installation, i haven't configured the eth and then he did not install all packages [07:39] i bet the canadians just laugh at us when they cross the bridge over to the US, just to see burnt our buildings with windows broken, tall buildings with nowindows and graffiti all over once you cross over [07:40] i bet the mexicans the feel the same way [07:41] rename m4v mp4 *.m4v [07:41] Bareword "m4v" not allowed while "strict subs" in use at (eval 1) line 1. [07:41] yea tons of mexicans there its weird [07:41] any idea why i got that error ? [07:41] detroit is full of asian people [07:41] I upgrade my vserver from hardy to lucid the other. upstart ran into a problem that I worked around, but now upstart does not seem to be running and I can't figure out how to restart it: http://paste.debian.net/107278/ Any ideas? [07:41] at least the airport is [07:41] no way [07:41] u srs [07:41] elfranne: Are you trying to rename a file? SHould you be using the "mv" command instead of "rename"? [07:41] this may be off the topic but what is a good newsreader [07:41] i swear, 1 in 3 people at detroit airport was asian [07:41] i know theres a growing muslim community now [07:42] i bet the airport area is nice then] [07:42] i thought muslims were buying new york, not detroit [07:42] muslims everywhere [07:42] elfranne: If you are using "rename", then instead of "m4v" you should be using a Perl-compatible substitute command (ie. /regex1/regex2/) or something. [07:42] Detroit, when I finally left in 92, was frightening enough. My mother went back last year for a school reunion - she WON'T be going back - ever again. [07:42] YankDownUnder, which side [07:43] elfranne: what are you trying to do? [07:43] theres a good side to detroit? [07:43] foofooey, East side. [07:43] elfranne: What are you trying to do, specifically? Rename all files ending in m4v to end in mp4? [07:43] anyone know how to get audacious to figure out the artists and title and all other info of physical cds?

[07:44] my question is.. if i connect to an ssh server how difficult is it for the admin of that server to use that same tunnel i a reverse fashion? [07:44] Nazi strike. [07:44] YankDownUnder, ? [07:45] dude thats a funny phrase [07:45] last comment - detroitians are a bunch of anarchists, and burn their own city, bleh [07:45] detroit smells [07:45] especially the amigos doing it now [07:45] grendal_prime: are you opening a tunnel, or just connecting to the server to get a shell? [07:45] snap you could always boot from a live cd and change the fstab from there [07:45] kwtm abd greppy : got hte solution rename 's/\.m4v/\.mp4/' *.m4v [07:46] greppy, well in the case im worried about i will be sending a crapload of files. [07:46] to a server [07:46] * whatsup[damnNS] back with negative results [07:46] anyone here used PinguyOS ? [07:46] grendal_prime: you mean you want to, or you want to try to prevent? When I provide tech support for my relatives, they ssh into my server and open a tunnel (as I request); then I can ssh into their desktop via that tunnel and open my own tunnel. But I can't unless they open a tunnel to me first. [07:46] grendal_prime: unless you open a tunnel, you don't need to worry about someone connecting back to your machine over your ssh connection. [07:47] grendal_prime: If the desktop just does "ssh -L 5900:localhost:5900" or something like that, there is no reverse tunnel for the server admin to "sneak" back into your computer, if that's what you're asking. [07:48] kwtm, well i have a client that wants me to dump serveral files onto a file server they have behind an ssh server. so for the most part im going to rsync via ssh to there server, so i would be the client. [07:48] grendal_prime: that should be fine. [07:48] i want to prevent them from being able to get into my machine. [07:49] grendal_prime: Sorry, I still don't have the info I need to answer your question. Do you (client) want to prevent the server admin from tunnelling back into your client? Or you want to facilitate the tunnel? [07:49] grendal_prime: Ah, I see. THey won't get into your machine if you tunnel into theirs. [07:49] ok cool [07:50] so ya im tunneling into there server, dropping some files, and then shutting down the connection [07:50] 60 second later doing it again with a new ssh connection. [07:50] grendal_prime: you're not really tunneling if you are copying files using ssh+rsync. [07:50] Anyone interested to help? :\ [07:51] right. because the true def of tunnel is two way. but you get what im saying ..im encrypting the data via ssh.

[07:54] why not use grub2, i tried burg the other day and it looks great and easy to add iso's to boot. [07:54] wiblewoble: that said, they would need root access to be able to do it. [07:55] Shall i explain situation the wider angled? Sysadmin said "Fix this" and left. And if i wanna reset Bios i need keys to open that box. which are, of course, by Murphy, with sysadmin. Em.... About 80km away from here [07:55] kwtm: greppy: i see thanks!

[07:55] why did someone go through all the trouble to write it up? [07:56] whatsup[damnNS], you cant boot up a cd? [07:56] grendal_prime: because there STILL are stupid peepz running unknown scripts with sudo [07:56] grendal_prime: because there have been escalation exploits in other applications where a normal user could get root. [07:56] foofooey: dont have one here :@ [07:56] give me 30secs, brb [07:57] back [07:58] sooo like a cron job that runs as root? and some script that has sudo access to cron that also reads some config file that is world writeable? [07:58] foofooey: if i had damn CD, i could already do it... But now i think theres no other way than with bios reset, so that Legacy mode goes boom, right? [07:58] that sort of thing? [07:59] where does it get stuck at [07:59] but jesushchrist...we are supposed to safegarde from such crazyness? [08:00] foofooey: i boot my computer. option a: i press f1 and i get into boot, nothing works (no keys reactions). or B) i continue boot and i get pass GRUB 1.5 dialogue (even if i slam ESC key) into login window (where all keys work)...

[08:27] EvilPhoenix: He didn't install the server jet, he wants to [08:27] uh... [08:27] Woot, stuff is opened, but i'll reset bios when there's not that much crowd [08:27] doorntje: the fact the server isnt on explains a lot :P [08:27] it wasn't locked, i was opening it wrong way >.< [08:28] EvilPhoenix: The server is turned on when he tries to install ;) [08:28] doorntje: if they want web access, they need to install an HTTP daemon like apache.

Does anyone know why this isn't working? Does anyone have a workaround? [08:28] doorntje: otherwise there should be no reason for a timeout if he's at the machine itself after installation [08:28] Possibly Starminn, thanks =D [08:29] What would happen if i drag bios battery out NOW? :P [08:29] doorntje: so if he hasnt installed the server software yet, then that explains why there;s timeouts: there's nothing listening [08:29] I can use swedish characters in gnome-terminal, but if I run php -a, i.e. interactive commandline php, inside that gnome-terminal php still won't show the swedish characters.

On the Acer, I get eth0, lo, wlan0. On the HP I get eth0, eth1, lo ... what is the go? [08:57] bwt "cat /etc/network/interfaces" on both outputs exactly the same result [08:57] brokendatapoint: its how the drivers/udev pickup the devices. You can mess with the OS to change it. afaik, network manager expects wlan0 but wicd is more flexible and allows you to specify the wireless interface name [08:58] ActionParsnip: so the different hardware (Acer/HP) makes this difference? as far as i can tell, both netbooks are running almost exactly the same motherboard/cpu [08:59] Why my .bashrc only works while I am root? [08:59] brokendatapoint: the interfaces file will always output the same thing as interfaces will only define the loopback device, the rest is managed (by default) by network manager [08:59] brokendatapoint: the board and cpu are moot, its the wireless hardware which makes the difference, and the driver running it, thereof [09:00] ActionParsnip: re /etc/network/interfaces => OK, ah the Acer runs an Atheros and the HP an Intel (I think) [09:00] TonyBurn: in your users home folder run: sudo chown $USER:$USER /home/$USER/.bashrc [09:00] brokendatapoint: that's the difference then ;) [09:00] ActionParsnip: thank you [09:01] wt is meaning of |=? is it assignment operator [09:01] brokendatapoint: no worries dude [09:01] prakash: | is a pipe to pipe the output of one command to another [09:01] ActionParsnip: interesting nick btw ... parsnip hahaha [09:02] Thank you [09:03] hey guys, my cousin uses ubuntu, but he is unable to use invisible mode either with pidgin or empathy.pidgin sets mode as invisible, but his chat list goes away. empathy sets busy instead of invisible.

I need a tool able to schedule download task, provide a view of download progress etc. [09:14] ActionParsnip: k [09:15] simion314: sudo apt-get --purge remove flashplugin-installer flashplugin-nonfree; sudo apt-get install flashplugin-nonfree then close all browsers and re-open should be ok [09:15] ActionParsnip: and it should download to my server, not the client which I use to connect [09:16] hello [09:16] Hi [09:16] dagon666: i see what you mean, let me hunt [09:17] dagon :D [09:17] What a nick [09:17] qrq: may say the same about yours [09:18] lol [09:18] dagon Del Toro is making "In The Mountains of Madness" === zhangjiyang is now known as zjy3186511 [09:19] ... [09:19] That is kind of awesome. [09:19] ActionParsnip: thx, it worked [09:19] is LibreOffice available via apt-get or must I get the Linux Installer? [09:19] Ve2 What exaclty? [09:19] qrq, do you know when it is due to come out? [09:20] Del Toro making Mountain of Madness. :/ [09:20] result |= (1 << (letter_to_index(drives[i].letter))); what is happening by this statement? [09:21] How do I permanently change my DNS on all wireless networks I may connect to, to 8.8.8.8? [09:21] brokendatapoint: Have a look at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LibreOffice That lists a PPA so you can add a repository [09:21] DJones: thank you, reading [09:22] prakash: one is rotated x times, where x = drives[i].letter, the result, for examle 00100000 is ORed with the "result" [09:22] ultrafluffy, you can go into /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-wlan0 [09:22] and add a line that says DNS1=8.8.8.8 [09:22] :/ [09:22] That will set the default for your wireless adapter. [09:22] Ve2 Did you get link? [09:22] Do you want it to ONLY use that? === stas is now known as Guest98359 [09:23] Yes, ta. [09:23] Thank god he signed off from making The Hobbit [09:23] Howto get fade to (real) transparency with reflexion (ImageMagick) ? [09:23] ok [09:23] True that. [09:23] Best left in Jacksons hands. [09:23] Because LOTR movies were awful [09:24] dagon666: jdownloader has a web interface http://www.linoob.com/2010/08/best-ubuntu-download-managers-reviewed/ [09:24] Eh. [09:24] LOTR is awful IMHO. [09:24] ultrafluffy: you can define dns in network manager [09:24] ActionParsnip: yeah, I considered it, but you know ... its Java :( [09:24] Ve2 Well if the story would be about orks then it would be better :D [09:24] ActionParsnip, It only seems to want to do it for each network individually -- I'd prefer if it were automatic for every new WLAN I connect to [09:25] ActionParsnip: I'll take it if there is nothing else better [09:25] Actually, if Del Toro did The Hobbit from the perspective of the dragon [09:25] I would watch that, for sure. :D [09:25] dagon666: whats wrong with java? [09:26] DJones: just removed Open Office, added the libreoffice/ppa, update, install libreoffice => generates a monster package install list, still. [09:26] Ve2 I like when bad characters are main heroes :D [09:26] anyone know anything about ofbiz [09:26] ? [09:27] Poor dragon gets all his treasure stolen, everyone crys at the end.

[09:45] andy-at-home, you own stocks? [09:45] kshallid: i meant from within ubuntu.. i remember there were tools called "stow" or "alien"? [09:45] alien turns rpm [09:45] s into deb [09:46] andy-at-home: use the connect to server in nautilus. bear in mind this: http://thelinuxexperiment.com/linux/accessing-windows-7-shares-from-ubuntu-is-a-pain/ [09:46] Not sure about stow [09:46] Ve2: k, thx [09:46] thanks [09:46] andy-at-home: i suggest you read it if you use live messenger === taka is now known as Guest67542 [09:47] deuterium: oh sorry my reaction if offtopic, alien is tool for rebuild package [09:47] andy-at-home: it messes with samba and win7's revised samba which causes grief, its a pain, and microsoft's fault [09:47] doesnt surprise me [09:47] kshallid: ok, np [09:48] * ActionParsnip nods [09:48] deuterium: it is recommended that you do not use alien. most of the times it will not be able to create the right package. instead use debian packages [09:48] if other folk are having trouble i think i ll just move the files online [09:49] andy-at-home: its fixable, the doc shows how [09:49] after installation and configuration openssl, if connect to the applications from browser it says 500 internal error [09:49] ill give it a read, thanks [09:49] rigved: thing is, i might need to use eclipse, but the version of eclipse ubuntu ships with is pretty old and seems rather buggy. so i thought i'd better try the most current version downloadable from the eclipse site which comes as a .tar.gz [09:50] after installation and configuration openssl, if connect to the applications from browser it says 500 internal error [09:50] compile it from source, deuterium? [09:50] satya: so you seting up an https:// site now? [09:51] yes sacarlson [09:51] Ve2: sounds adventureous and time-consuming ;) [09:51] Nope. [09:51] satya: what instructions have you followed so far? [09:51] It's like three commands. :/ [09:51] !ppa | deuterium [09:51] deuterium: A Personal Package Archive (PPA) can provide alternate software not normally available in the offical Ubuntu repositories - Looking for a PPA? See https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+ppas - WARNING: PPAs are unsupported third-party packages, and should be used at your own risk. [09:51] Also that. [09:52] how can i remove samba from initctl? [09:52] ActionParsnip: thx for the hint, will check [09:52] deuterium: so, when you untar it, it comes as a .rpm package? [09:52] i just configured it from the blog of joe fallen [09:52] I got out batt for 1 min or such and i resetted bios. grub works now w/o prob. [09:52] i just configured it from the blog of joe fallen instructions [09:52] thx anyways :p [09:52] now its start on every starup [09:53] is there a command to remove it, or have i to delete the links in init.d manualy [09:53] You want to stop smb from starting at startup? [09:53] "chkconfig smb off" [09:53] satya: could you show us this link joe fallen? [09:54] kk [09:54] rigved: hm.. the tgz basically just seems to contain a whole folder structure for eclipse.. so i might not even need to convert anything, perhaps just place it in /opt/ [09:54] Ve2: thanks [09:54] this is site http://blog.joefallon.net/2010/08/configure-tls-and-ssl-in-ubuntu-10-04-lts/] [09:54] deuterium, if you're not sure, look for a PPA for eclipse [09:54] it will make it a lot easier. [09:55] deuterium: ok. i remember now. it's just a folder. you need to place it in your home folder. then just run a file in that folder and it will start eclipse [09:56] deuterium: no need to place it in /opt [09:56] rigved: yes, sounds pretty straight-forward, actually :) [09:56] howdy [09:56] deuterium: :) all the best [09:56] deuterium: finding a ppa with a newer version is much cleaner ;) [09:56] Ve2: realy strange. if i enter this command i got "smb unknown service". [09:57] rethus: it's smbd [09:57] but if i do pas aus, i see: [09:57] Pardon me. [09:57] ahh, ok [09:57] rigved: thx ;) [09:57] that works :D [09:57] satya: ok I going to read yours this is the one I had been reading http://library.linode.com/web-servers/apache/ssl-guides/using-ssl-ubuntu-10.10-maverick [09:57] deuterium: np. your are welcome [09:57] ActionParsnip: is winbind and the other smb-services with disabling smbd also off? === someone is now known as Guest79595 [09:58] ActionParsnip: will try https://launchpad.net/~eclipse-team/+archive/debian-package if using the .tar.gz from the home folder fails. [09:58] sacarlson: thank you [10:00] satya: ok I don't see anything badly wrong with that, so did you check sudo netstat -pant to see if you have apache2 listen on port 443? [10:01] sacarlson: no [10:03] deuterium: looks good, it has a maverick repo :) [10:03] rethus: not sure there, would make sense [10:03] ActionParsnip: what's a maverick repo? [10:03] satya: did you check the /var/log/apache log files to see any more detail about error 500? [10:04] yeah, i saw it. but no more information for that error [10:05] satya: no errors seen at all? and port 443 is ok? [10:05] I asked this question earlier tonight but got cut off before I could check for responses (sorry): when a GNOME program like Evolution stores my password to log on to get email, in what file is the password stored? Is it a ~/.config-for-all-gnome/ directory, or is it more a ~/.just_for_evolution directory? [10:06] deuterium: the repo only supports maverick, so if you don't use maverick it is of no use to you# [10:06] satya: you will find the more info you give us the better and quicker we can help you, try to pastebin more of the info requested [10:06] hello how to connect to free wifi from console ? [10:06] hi, there has been a adobe flash upgrade to 10.2, now firefox and chrome cannot use youtube anymore. any workaround known? [10:06] d-devil: you can use wicd in cli, or iwconfig [10:06] ubuntu 10.10 server [10:07] iwconfig [10:07] sacarlson: kk. [10:07] asraniel: symlink the plugin into /usr/lib/chromium-browser/plugins [10:07] d-devil: wicd provides wicd-curses which gives a text/curses based gui to wifi [10:07] d-devil: I am more familiar with iwconfig, but be aware that if you literally mean "Free Wifi", sometimes Windows laptops may offer to let you connect to them (their SSID is "Free Wifi") but it doesn't mean you'll be connected to the Internet at large, just to that one laptop. [10:08] sacarlson: actually i disabled it from my server. thats why i couldnt able to post much. sorry for that [10:08] d-devil: like links2 is to X based web browsers [10:08] on Ubuntu 10.10 Netbook, what is the correct term for the default menu on the left that has Firefox, Cheese Webcam etc in it? [10:08] kwtm, I believe that it is the gnome-keyring [10:08] satya: disabled what? pastebinit? [10:09] i purge the openssl. and removed from my server. [10:09] roccity_: I see. Is it encrypted? Or can any casual user on my laptop just "cat /path/to/gnome-keyring" and be able to read my password? [10:09] by changing the nm-system-settings.conf one can make a nic unmanaged by network-monitor but the nic still shows as device not managed... can you hide that? [10:09] roccity_: I'm switching over to Evolution from Kmail. [10:10] brokendatapoint i think its a addon on firefox [10:10] brokendatapoint: i call it left panel, not sure. If you mean this: http://itmanagement.earthweb.com/img/2010/05/ubuntu-unity.png then it's called unity afaik [10:10] yo all have a major issue using ubuntu10.10 every time i connect my n900 it crashes my pc anybody any idea ?>? [10:10] ActionParsnip brokendatapoint ah [10:10] satya: so why are you here asking us then? [10:11] Console program for wifi signal ? [10:12] i want to install now. thats why and i want to know more about the error and why it is happened to me? [10:12] Hi, I'm wondering if I can install Ubuntu 10.10 on my USB drive without having to reboot my computer? [10:12] d-devil:"Console program for wifi signal ?" Is that a question you are asking us? Were the previous answers inadequate? [10:13] Is ubuntu 64bit preferred on a server with 4gb ram and 64bit cpu? :o [10:13] kwtm: sorry my english is poor [10:13] stanman246: Over 32 bit? Yes. [10:13] er, bad tab. [10:13] That was directed at Stava [10:13] d-devil: Which language do you speak? The answer to your question is: "wicd" and "iwconfig". [10:13] ljsoftnet: thanks but ActionParsnip was correct. [10:14] ActionParsnip: Unity => cool [10:14] JNZ, what would happen if i installed the 64 bit os on a 32bit machine? :O [10:14] You would not be able to address all 4 GB of the memory. [10:14] brokendatapoint: i find it clunky at first, it gets better with age. personally i prefer lxde [10:14] alright [10:14] Stava: it would not work [10:14] You would not be able to take advantage of specific optimizations for 64-bit operations === amalda_ is now known as amalda [10:14] Stava: Ah, read it backwards. [10:14] brokendatapoint my bad [10:14] JNZ: pae addresses (pun intended) the issue with more ram in 32bit [10:14] Yeah, you can't install 64-bit on a 32-bit machine :p [10:14] JNZ, well i get what you're saying [10:14] brokendatapoint no problem [10:15] So with a 64 bit cpu i should always use a 64bit os, if available [10:15] however you can run 64 bit OSes in VMs on 32-bit machines [10:15] ActionParsnip: not a bad call, this is on a friend's netbook, he asked for Win 7 to disappear and he now has Gnome Netbook on, I use Xfce4.4 [10:15] sedulous: Which VM supports that? [10:15] ActionParsnip: k, nice, i use maverick :) [10:15] JNZ: VirtualBox [10:15] does anybody know a -1 channel fix on ubuntu 10.10 have tryed the post at forum but that made things worse [10:15] sedulous: Not on Windows it doesn't. [10:15] sedulous, Is there any downside to that? [10:15] sedulous: It's virtualized, it's slow, all operations are down converted. [10:15] Stava: probably ^ [10:15] if i update smb.conf via dist-upgrade, will it overwrite my current smb.conf? [10:16] Wow, too many S names. [10:16] Bah. [10:16] It's making auto-complete be mad [10:16] :( [10:16] can I run rdesktop in verbose mode? [10:16] ./etc/init.d/network restart === Stava is now known as Xstava [10:16] wlan0: unknown hardware address type 803 [10:16] wlan0: unknown hardware address type 803 [10:16] JNZ, righto ;-) [10:16] d-devil: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation. [10:16] TopCat: i'd do a compare of the 2 files [10:16] this normal ? [10:16] now i'll be easier to tab-target! [10:16] I try and connect and it just says Autoselected keyboard map en-gb and sticks [10:16] I need to find out why [10:16] Stava: on a desktop it was not always a good idea to use 64bit , not as much was supported, it has been improving so I'm not sure about today [10:17] I'd like to install Ubuntu 10.10 on my usb external HDD. What things should I expect about the installation? How does this differ from an installation on my inboard HDD? [10:17] SitFly: in relation to your ?, I think No [10:17] sacarlson, Alright, well im about to install ubuntu on a server (64bit cpu) [10:17] d-devil: use: sudo service networking restart [10:17] sacarlson: that used to be true but i can't think of any desktop application that would be more problematic on amd64, compared to x86_32 [10:17] I'm logged as root [10:18] SitFly: have you downloaded the latest Ubuntu Netbook .iso? [10:18] brokendatapoint: I've downloaded the Ubuntu 10.10 Desktop Edition .iso [10:18] yes its the latest [10:18] it looks the sameish [10:18] nothing really different === root is now known as Guest19363 [10:18] hello i bought a vps server with OpenVZ. ist possible then to encrypt my homedir? [10:19] new terms i suppose === denny_ is now known as denny [10:19] sedulous: I ran ubuntu 8.04 I could count at least 4 big problems 1. canon printer drivers could run on 64 bit, skype at the time (now fixed) didn't work, jackd didn't work not sure if it does now, ruby firewatir didn't work still don't on 64 bit..... [10:19] TopCat: you could run: sudo cp /etc/samba/smb.conf /etc/samba/smb.conf_11022011 [10:19] TopCat: ;) [10:19] does anyone know about torrents??????? [10:20] word [10:20] good idea [10:20] !torrents | newbieOne [10:20] SitFly: I am not 100% sure but I think that the Netbook version is probably more approriate *if* you want to install. It probably has better support for onboard wireless/graphics adapters, Atom CPUs etc [10:20] newbieOne: Maverick can be torrented from http://torrent.ubuntu.com/simple/maverick/desktop/ubuntu-10.10-desktop-i386.iso.torrent or http://torrent.ubuntu.com/simple/maverick/server/ubuntu-10.10-server-amd64.iso.torrent depending on your architecture. Other flavors can be found at http://torrent.ubuntu.com/ [10:20] sacarlson: i take it that the canon printer drivers are closed source, correct? [10:20] SitFly: what O/S and Ver you using now? [10:21] sedulous: that correct and didn't compile them in 64 bit, same with skype closed didn't compile and still isn't compiled in 64 bit [10:22] brokendatapoint: well I'm using 10.04 right now [10:22] ActionParsnip, yo, whats up [10:22] brokendatapoint: I have that on my desktops hdd on the same partition as my windows 7 [10:22] brokendatapoint: my goal is to seperate the drives completely [10:23] sacarlson: that shouldn't be a problem with proper ia32 compatibility libraries and skype has worked for me on amd64 Debian years ago already although I only use it very sporadically and never outside of virtual machines nowadays [10:23] CAN anyone help me on how to upload to Pirate Bay???

[12:31] so touch basically creates a file ? [12:31] in the existing directory [12:31] ok, this is my first time with KDE and konsole, before I was allways using gnome..My question is, why I cant bind shift + up or down for backward/forward history search. just to mention that this must be something with shortcut key of KDE, because in xterm history search works well..Any help how to solve this in konsole ? [12:32] touch creates the file if it didn't already exist [12:32] ok [12:32] but it just sets the date of file access if the file already exists [12:34] do anyone know what would cause my webserver to return a 500 Internal server error instead of the actual PHP error thats in my script? [12:35] deny: why do you need shift+up/down ??? I can browse history with up/down and dont need to change... [12:35] Hi, I just installed Ubuntu 10.10 Desktop i386 onto my external HDD, but now when it goes to boot up it says file not found.

[12:36] zaggynl: what dd_rescue command did you use? [12:37] Hi, I just got a Logitech G510 keyboard for my birthday. I installed the G15tools, but g15deamon wont run...says cant connect to valid g15 device...any help would be apreciated [12:37] at what point does it fail the boot process? [12:37] ActionParsnip: just dd_rescue /dev/sdb /dev/sda -l logfile.txt [12:37] zaggynl: and does the destination partition have enough space and is it mounted writable?

If the drive physically works you can just use foremost on the drive to pull files off [12:40] zaggynl: I tell them, people LOVE learning why backups are good the hardest way possible [12:41] SitFly I don't have anything come to mind, but you may want to learn about grub and explore the problem from there [12:42] Guest5435: do you have a suggestion on a good starting place to learn about grub? [12:42] do you know if unetbootin software can burn an image on a pen directly from a cd, or do i have to pass the iso to the computer first? [12:42] could any one help me. I need to batch change alot of file extensions but im unsure how to go about it [12:42] ActionParsnip: well the problem isn't that dd_rescue isn't working, it's just that it updates the screen oddly, it scrolls like mad [12:43] heyguise: maybe try -> sudo apt-get install krename [12:43] wonderowlrd thanks [12:44] anyone here using KDE konsole? === christian is now known as Guest45552 [12:45] deny:....well I dont know how to config that, I use CTRL+R type for example "apt" and pressing CTRL+R show me next command that I type with apt. then CTRL+R next etc. [12:45] sitfly: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto [12:45] after your first search hit with CTRL-R you can use the cursor keys to cycle [12:45] Guest5435: thanks for the help.

[13:28] jack_: ;P [13:28] I downloaded the alternate CD for 10.10, I checksummed the image and it matches the documented value. I went to places and right clicked on it and chose to write it to CD. All appeared to go well, but when I run the checkdisk it tells me components are bad. So, then I did: dd if=/dev/cdrom bs=1 count=72628992, this latter number being what ls -l showed the image size to be. The checksum... [13:28] ...was not good. repeated process on other computers with different CDs always the same. What am I doing wrong [13:28] the checksum was bad - repeared on different computers, different CDs too. Always the same problem [13:29] MagicJ: what speed do you burn at? [13:29] wonderworld: but think about some edition's of linux for more popular use cases. === KREDO is now known as Rasul [13:30] like multimedia,gaming,etc [13:30] shiftingcontrol: " find targetdir -type f -follow -maxdepth 1 | wc -l " different but not easier [13:30] action - tried burning at max and it selected 10x which should be ok since a 12x disk - but when that did not work also tried burning at 4x which is as slow as I can go [13:30] they are already there.

The assembly was probably created using C++/CLI." [13:31] android is linux based [13:31] yeah another one... [13:31] action - do you mean the "check the disk" If so, yes I can and it is bad [13:31] MagicJ: then its a hardware issue. or a windows issue. if the image you download is fine [13:32] hey folks up here ..... does some one has idea where NetworkManager stores connection data (some .ini type file etc) if keyring is disabled [13:32] * not disabled - password blank [13:32] Magicj: no idea short of a ram test. You've tested at every stage which is great :) [13:32] not using Windoze - did this on multiple machines, running different versions of Ubuntu - so I do not really see how it can be either a windows r a hardware issue [13:33] MagicJ: you think the disk image is bad? i've used it multiple times without problem. [13:33] maybe you're download is bad [13:33] run the md5sum against it [13:33] MagicJ: not sure if a burned CD has the same checksum as the image file it was burned from [13:33] actionparsnip - ramtest on the writing machines I did not think of - will do that now - did do it on the machine I tried to install on and that was fine [13:33] Magicj: bad batch of CDs maybe [13:33] huh i found - it is in ~/.gnome2/keyring/default.keyring [13:33] jack_ please see my comments above, the md5checksum is good [13:33] MagicJ: what are you burning the iso with? [13:34] MagicJ: no only you md5 of the download is good. Not after the burn. You said the checksum doesn't match after burning the iso to disk. === Swish[\] is now known as Swish [13:34] MagicJ: then your burn is bad. [13:34] Magicj: its harder now as you have verified the most common causes as ok [13:34] histo - again see my comments above, I agree the md5sum of what is written appears bad [13:34] ls -la |wc -l,will count fle named . and ..,how to avoid it during counting [13:35] MagicJ: then it's bad [13:35] IF the checksum should be the same with a burned CD it must be the batch of CD's if you tried with different machines [13:35] MagicJ: there is no questionable md5sum it is either equal or bad [13:35] action and others - I just did the memtest on one of th writing machines and it is good [13:35] yes histo - I agree what is written is bad - and what I downloaded appears good - so that is really the question [13:36] MagicJ: I would suggest your media you are using is bad.

[13:38] histo, i guess NOt [13:38] MagicJ: with some software you can have it verify what is written.

[14:10] jolly_xen: o ... yea, the tutorial only covers getting it started.

[14:13] bc81_: with nice you can start your script dirctly with a priority ( i guess thats waht you want) [14:13] with renice you can chnage the priority of a running process [14:13] wonderworld: yea, i'll stick with nice for now, thanks === Swish[\] is now known as Swish [14:14] Bc81_: nice value of -20 will give near 100% cpu to the process. 20 will mean it will take backseat and only get time when the system is idle [14:14] Ever since updating to 10.10 the cross button to exit the window has become slightly misshapen. http://i.imgur.com/85eWf.png [14:14] ActionParsnip: perfect that's just what it needs..this script has my laptop melting onto my legs! lol [14:15] yeah, the "nicer" a process behaves, the more CPU it gives to the other processes [14:15] polite little script [14:15] wonderworld: hehe good info [14:15] Hi I need help with setup of Ubuntu Server in My VPS and to Setup The Perfect server for IRC Shell Hosting Business.

[15:08] ikonia: sorry .. what you mean ? i need support many drivers.. there is no rule for that... i am thinking to install all of them ... what you say about that ? [15:08] raikonen_399: I say that is a bad idea, and only install what you need [15:08] if i wanna restore with rsync is it like this, rsync /backup/shared [15:09] droopal, my guess is that changing the name of the home folder is a bad idea [15:09] it was the same error before, so nothing changed in nthe name change. [15:09] back [15:10] It seems it might be a permissions problem, but I cant work out why. [15:10] ikonia: i know this is not good idea. but i told you: i use ubuntu on usb and i always use it on different laptops, different desktop pc and many many different hardwares... i can not say that i use on this and 2 other machines.. :( so ? what i will lose ? (except usb free space) [15:10] lithpr: what that flash setting does?

[16:53] arand: thanks I'll give that a go [16:53] i dont remember seeing that but i dont think i watched entire boot process either (why dont install work from when ubuntu running tho - i see link) [16:53] It appears that your graphics driver does not support the necessary extensions to use this tool.

[16:53] prisonerofz: then if you are sure that you are not downloading anything currently in kget , then in terminal do sudo killall kget to kill kget [16:53] temb: so it's the same state it was in old version? why did you say it worked before? [16:54] pksadiq: but the system manager says it is sleeping [16:54] cookiesunshinex: I don't know enough about Amazon's AMIs to say if thats whats causing the difference.

[17:56] soreau: it adjusts how often... eeehh or more likely the kernel is to push memory to swap [17:57] how can i remove this volume control from mixers: numid=31,iface=MIXER,name='Software Master' ? [17:57] like amixer? [17:57] I have a on board video issue is there anyone that might be able to help [17:57] danskubr: are you using evolution? that sounds like a calendar notification thing [17:57] jack__: Ah ok.. hence the name then I see :) [17:57] There is a program out there that you download onto ubuntu, make whatever changes you want to ubuntu then save the changes using this program, it creates an iso for you with all the changes. [17:57] What's the name of that program? [17:57] man there are so many people coming and going in this channel is there away to have that turned off? [17:57] No. [17:57] ! ask | warlock [17:57] !remaster | Soul [17:57] warlock: 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. :-) [17:57] Soul: Interested in remastering the Ubuntu !live CD? See: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/LiveCDCustomization or use tools such as http://uck.sourceforge.net/ or http://linux.dell.com/wiki/index.php/DRU_Disc_Remastering_Utility [17:57] Soul: i think thats called compiling your own iso. im nnot sure if there is an appliicationt o do that [17:58] Adrees: its clients pecific [17:58] jack im on irssi [17:59] But I'm sure there is an application for that, but I forget the name [17:59] soul: I'm not sure I see remastersys in that I see aleady above http://www.geekconnection.org/remastersys/ [17:59] Adrees: there's a way in pidgin [17:59] nemam skriptu da valja....Nisam tu! [17:59] can't you do that with brasero? [17:59] Adrees: i have no idea. i use xchat [17:59] Adrees: /ignore #ubuntu +parts +quits +joins [17:59] when i set my on board video to share the least amount of ram it gives me a rom error on restart is there a way i can disable my on board video.So that i am not sharing the memory [17:59] thanks! [18:00] and how to turn it back on? [18:00] anyone else get "proxy error" at http://www.ubuntu.com/certification === Guest26742 is now known as LjL-Temp [18:00] warlock: well you can disable the onboard video entirely in bios settings but I'm not sure that you want that === LjL-Temp is now known as Guest80098 [18:01] Okay thanks sacarlson [18:01] gave debian 6.0 squeeze my best shot. back with ubuntu, yet again, i always go back to ubuntu [18:01] i am looking for an application. it would be web based document storage and management application with front end to allow the user to give the document being uploaded a title and select a storage folder then after upload return a url for the location of the document to the web interface. [18:01] when I will have my bootable pendrive with Ubuntu, will I be able to run Ubuntu which is installed in my HDD? [18:01] warlock: Yea, see if there is a bios setting to disable the onboard video altogether [18:02] i would prefer something i could install with apt-get [18:02] hi ubuntuers, yesterday I was working on adding scripts to ~/bin and then I modified my ~/.profile file to add the path [18:02] jack__: nope, evolution isnt even open, nor any chat program [18:02] running latest ubuntu server [18:02] i was able to execute the scripts in ~/bin from any dir yesterday but I cannot do that today [18:02] mia158: why not? [18:02] mia158: echo $PATH [18:03] @soreau there is not an a ability to do this i can set primary graphics adapter to PCI express but when i move the shared memory it gives me a rom error. [18:03] danskubr: i dont think ubuntu is setup to have ringing bells by default so something must be running to cause that [18:03] ~/bin is not there now [18:03] mia158: check you path with echo $PATh [18:03] Hi, I want to archive files for store only in ZIP format [18:03] mia158: did you adjust your path? [18:03] no, does logout/in affect it? [18:03] jack__: do you know anything about the firefox namoroka? [18:03] warlock: Which onboard gpu is it? [18:03] how do I make it persistent [18:03] danskubr: i've never heard of namoroka [18:03] MIH1406: can you elaborate [18:03] mia158: you can put it in your rc.local file [18:04] jack__: Its a codename for the next version of FF [18:04] me neighter, lol, im trying to help my gf, he likes to invovate, but then its me who have to fix stuff afterwards [18:04] mia158: the account you are in effects it and so does ~./bashrc [18:04] @soreau 7500 series [18:04] .. [18:04] soreau: danskubr: i use google chrome. [18:04] warlock: You mean radeon? If so, ask in #radeon [18:04] how is it that I'm able to run commands as root:root, but not root:othergroup or undecim:othergroup, no matter what I do? [18:05] undecim: what do you mean? [18:05] what do I need to do to add the path permanently? [18:05] schnuffle, I want to add files to a ZIP archive but without any compression level. Just for storing many files in a single file. [18:05] undecim: how are you running things as root:othergroup? [18:05] Having a weird issue in new ubuntu 10.10 install... Whenever I try to run something with "./" I get file not found... Any ideas? [18:05] warlock: Also if the PCI-e card isnt radeon, cant you blacklist the radeon kernel module? [18:05] chrisdpratt: the file doesn't exist in yoru pwd [18:05] mia158: you can add it to your rc.local [18:05] jack_: Sudo, sudo with sudo, sudo with su.... [18:05] it is radeon [18:06] mia158: also check /etc/environments [18:06] chrisdpratt: you need to be in the same directory as the file you are trying to run [18:06] warlock: Oh well ask in #radeon then [18:06] okay [18:06] undecim: what is the exact command you're running that is failing? and whats the failure message? [18:06] ok, I have a tricky little problem. When I installed Maverick, I partioned a 50 GB partition for the OS (and other apps), I also created a (approximately) 244GB NTFS partition so that I could share files with windows 7. I saw last night that whenever I save files to what I thought was that partion they were saved in my DropBox folder, which for some reason, resides in that 50GB partition. Obviously, I can't even see that pa [18:06] rtition and it's not mounted. Can anyone help? [18:06] chrisdpratt: Possibly the first line of the file you are trying to run contains a shebang with a file that is not on your system [18:06] undecim: are you sure it due to the owner or is it becuase of the privs ls -l filename to see priv settings [18:06] I want to add files to a ZIP archive but without any compression level. Just for storing many files in a single file. [18:06] anyone any experiences with the Revodrive on Ubuntu? [18:07] Abinadai: stop saving files there :) [18:07] But it does... For example... If I were to do "sh somescript.sh" it works but "./somescript" does not [18:07] jack_: gahh.... it's on a VM and i didn't set up the guest additions for clipboard sharing... gimme a sec. [18:07] chrisdpratt: what if you type 'ls somescript' do you get anything back? [18:07] chrisdpratt: I reiterate about the shebang [18:07] undecim: just tell me. [18:07] list [18:07] jack_: user root is not allowed to execute .... as root:regnum [18:07] rc.local is hashes out and it says this script does nothing [18:08] chrisdpratt: to ./ a file, it has to have execute permissions set [18:08] MIH1406: use --compression-method store or -0 [18:08] undecim: did you run a 'chmod +x scriptfile' against it? [18:08] jack_, I agree...thats why I need to know how to start accessing that unmounted (obviously) NTFS partition. [18:08] jack_: Yes. [18:08] But its everything i try to run and not scripts i personally created... Scripts that run fine on other computers [18:08] jack_: I can run the binary just fine, just not with the gid I want [18:08] chrisdpratt: you might need to add at the top line something like #! /bin/sh [18:08] Abinadai: it hink ubuntu can moutn NTFS. do a `mount /dev/ /mnt` [18:08] jack_: And it's a GTK program, so it complains with the setgid bit [18:08] evenin' all! [18:08] ok [18:09] hai [18:09] For example ./manage.py for django works on my mac... Not here though... No diffetence in files [18:09] chrisdpratt: where is manage.py? [18:09] Seems to be some system wide setting im unaware of [18:09] jack_: It's a restriction on sudo... I'm trying to figure out why root can do anything on the system, except run a binary with a different GID [18:10] jack_How will I know what device to mount? Is there some command I'm not aware of that will tell me what the size of the partitions are next to the device? [18:10] In project directory... Its not system level [18:10] chrisdpratt: could it be that you have a partition mounted with noexec? [18:10] Abinadai: i bleieve the 'system' will say 'NTFS' [18:10] this is what I did yesterday - "mkdir ~/bin && . ~/.profile && echo $PATH" [18:11] mia158: paste your .profile [18:11] and the path is returned with echo $PATH [18:11] chrisdpratt: post the output of ls -l manage.py [18:11] hi [18:11] how do I configure a new server in Xchat ?

[18:11] AbhijiT: some code just compile with make [18:12] thanks AbhijiT [18:12] Abinadai: mkdir /mnt/ntfs1; mkdir /mnt/ntfs2; mount /dev/sda1 /mnt/ntfs1; mount /dev/sdb1 /mnt/ntfs2 [18:12] chrisdpratt: then it shouldn't be mounted with noexec, paste what yoyoned asked you [18:12] Abinadai: if your ntfs drivers were sda and sdb that is [18:12] pksadiq, make: *** No rule to make target `config'.

But this is a global issue with the use of "./" anywhere on my system for anything [18:15] sacarlson, ammm can you get that code so that you can tell me what to do? if thats possible?

[18:31] AbhijiT, many thanks, have sort of fopund it. you have to enter in two servers and delete the last one [18:31] Its not a file problem... Its a system problem... "./" doesn't work for anything anywhere, even on scripts that run fine with "./" on other systems [18:31] hi all [18:32] MTecknology, yah [18:32] MtrPanda, yeah [18:32] Zephlit: deluser/usermod [18:32] Jelou: if you are mounting them via the fstab. you could use the UUIDs to identify them in fstab. not the /dev/sdXX type nam,eing scheme. [18:32] chrisdpratt: Try asking in #bash perhaps [18:32] Just trying to figure out what could possibly cause that on a system-erode level in ubuntu [18:32] chrisdpratt: Are you inside the path that you're trying to run that from? [18:32] trying to get triple monitors to work. should i use nvidia proprietary driver or linux driver from nvidia.com? [18:32] AbhijiT, many thanks [18:33] I upgraded to 10.04 yesterday, and I don't have any sound [18:33] GeekyAdam: the nvidia.com drivers are just newer properity drivers. the ones in the repos 'should' work. but ive had issues in the past with 3 monitors and nvidia. [18:33] GeekyAdam: Ubuntu gets the proprietary driver from nvidia and makes sure its working then puts it in their repos [18:33] GeekyAdam: best to stick with the drives in the repos. [18:33] Dr_Willis, can i use LABEL also, right? have i to do somthing else after change /dev/sda1 to the label in fstab? [18:33] Jelou: you can use Label also.. ive done that in the past. [18:33] so i am currently running hackintosh os x 10.6, and i want to migrate to Ubuntu. is there a way for ubuntu to easily read my time machine backup disk so that i can migrate my files easily? [18:34] Jelou: unmount/remount to see if it works. [18:34] GeekyAdam: The only way you can get 3 monitors to work on a cards with only 2 crtcs is by using two cards [18:34] Dr_Willis: ahh. well can you give me some knowledges on getting 3 monitors up and working nicely? [18:34] Jelou: but the UUID is the most common way to do it. [18:34] Hi everybody. Can someone tell me what are the default fronts in ubuntu? [18:34] It was the same under 9.04 which I came from, and I have tried the alsamixer, alsactl etc, but nothing works [18:34] fonts* [18:34] i have 2 cards [18:34] GeekyAdam: not much more then to say 'good luck, you will need it' :) [18:34] Pici: Manage.py was just used as an example... Its everywhere and on every file, though... "./script" won't work but "program script" works... Like "sh somescript.sh" [18:34] GeekyAdam: i got it working.. once.. but it never survived a reboot.. this was a year+ ago however.. [18:34] chrisdpratt: And whats the exact error that you get? === tee is now known as t [18:35] GeekyAdam: You have a single nvidia card that has 3 outputs? or using 2 nvidia cards? [18:35] Dr_Willis, i have /home in sda1, can i edit fstab and restart, does it work? [18:35] i have 2 cards [18:35] Pici: no such file or directory [18:35] Jelou: if you edit fstab properly.. it should work. === t is now known as Guest20268 [18:35] GeekyAdam: Then plug them up and get configuring. You can setup two x sessions (one with two monitors and one with the remaining one) or use xinerama (which means things like compi wont work due to the fact that xinerama disables compositing in the x server) [18:35] compiz* [18:36] GeekyAdam: issue to watch out for is that (in one case) the 2 cards COULD need different versions of the nvidia drivers. (had that issue once) [18:36] damn. was wondering why stuff wasnt working right [18:36] Is there some way for me to paste into a program that doesn't support paste? i.e., but simulating the keyboard strokes [18:36] Dr_Willis: im 99% sure they use same driver. checked that yesterday. [18:36] Twinview works with compiz here. [18:36] Dr_Willis, but do i have grub-update or similar after edit fstab, or not? [18:36] chrisdpratt: No, I mean *exactly* like: "bash: ./foo: No such file or directory" ? [18:36] Jelou: grub dosent use fstab.. [18:36] GeekyAdam: With two X sessions, the trick is that you cant move windows between X sessions, only the mouse cursor [18:36] Hi everybody. Can someone tell me what are the default fonts in ubuntu? [18:36] Dr_Willis: yeah but twinview doesnt support three monitors right? [18:36] ok, i'm trying to start a .jar file when X starts. when I put it inside gnome in the startup files section of the gui it works, but when I put the same commandline in .xinitrc it doesn't, any ideas why? [18:36] GeekyAdam: it did here. [18:36] hid: /usr/share/fonts/ [18:36] oh [18:36] hmm [18:37] GeekyAdam: untill i rebooted.. this was a year+ ago... [18:37] I mean "it works" this way, but I want to understand why it fails in the xinitrc file :) [18:37] Dr_Willis, ah... ok, i will try it. Thank you! [18:37] GeekyAdam: i had an onboard nvidia, and a extra nvidia card. so that may been an issue also. === bc81__ is now known as bc81 [18:38] Lasivian: .xintirc is only ran when you start up X from either 'startx' or from GDM by one of the special sessions.

[19:54] evilsushi into py file there are a lot of "tesseract", but i want to change only the string where tesseract is inside [] [19:55] battle_warrior: but that will take a long time ant it will stress the disk quite a bit two factors for disaster if you ask me [19:55] i installed ubuntu using dvd 10.10 in nomodest mode as i use nvidia graphic card,,, nw after everything worked out in install...i rebooted my system and when i select t]ubuntu or ubuntu fix from the boot menu black screen appears..2 hours no luck [19:55] i installed ubuntu using dvd 10.10 in nomodest mode as i use nvidia graphic card,,, nw after everything worked out in install...i rebooted my system and when i select t]ubuntu or ubuntu fix from the boot menu black screen appears..2 hours no luck [19:55] nitansh: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.

[19:58] raisin123:The absolute safest way to do that is to install it on a separate partition, but that's probably more work than you need. [19:58] What I'd recommend is to install Kubuntu. I'm not sure if that's really what you meant when you said "KDE on top of an Ubuntu installation", but Kubuntu is little more than KDE+Ubuntu [19:58] i updated ubuntu 10.10 last night and after the update firefox is rather slow and most youtube videos wont play i just get "an error occured please try agin later". anyone know what's going on ?

[20:08] clby: so... he asked specifically and i quote « try some other *linux* distro now » emphasys mine [20:08] i say let him try bsd [20:08] esrusul: I don't really need a lot of security.

[20:11] erUSUL, ok will try that [20:11] raisin123: i play everything i foind so far . combination of vlc and mplayer is enough for 99% of things [20:11] raisin123: What exactly isn't playing? What formats? What's happening? Nobody can help you unless we know the particular issues you're having. [20:11] torrancew_: video files get stuck in middle sometimes man.

[20:19] raisin123: well is fact of life. windows can pay for using decoders/encoders- linux distributions can't that's why there is no mp3 support out of the box in linux and you have to install packages and add repos that are outside the US [20:19] erUSUL: i was'nt know that......

[20:20] erUSUL_: I don't get it. We have to install the same codecs in windows too. Where is the difference then... [20:20] raisin123: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FreeFormats <<< there is a paragraph or two about it here [20:20] ubottu: no need for this now ....because jdk is working correctely [20:21] raisin123: windows has mpr and mpeg and many formats support out of the box ( not to mention its own media formats like wmv and wma ) [20:22] llutz, it just blindly adds a 0.0.0.0/0 route to route all traffic through the VPN [20:22] * hotrod is away: Gone away for now [20:22] erUSUL_: ahh, Now, I get it. thanks for the info.

It's more than likely because of the massive updates needed [20:59] is it okay to set up a group for /etc and /usr and then chmod o-rx ? and then allow users i want to be able to see those directories to be in that group [20:59] or will that cause a lot of problems? [20:59] erUSUL, You meant 'build-essential' I suppose. I have that installed. But gnumake/gmake ? [20:59] hey, is there any way to normalize any audio? i mean not at the separate application (if some app have it then that app normalize) but all the audio i mean im sick when i listen some online radio and that is very silent need to overvolume it manually cant make it auto? isnt that a nice idea? [21:00] Lilbit: The reason I ask is because when I hold down just the CTRL key, it boots into Mac OS [21:00] hello to everyone [21:00] no windows partition there [21:00] Jenk: make is going to be gmake. [21:00] the system would normalize all the audio that goes thru the master volume control [21:00] NowVoyager: The ctrl key is to keep the usb loading in startup. After choosing to boot in Linux then hold the ctrl key. [21:01] Jenk: gnumke gmake is == make in linux machines. it is called gnumake gmake in bsd (macosx included ) machines becouse they have their own make [21:01] michael99: I don't have any programs to help you, but wouldn't that make silence into a buzz as loud as music, and make loud parts of music just as loud as the quiet parts? [21:01] hey erUSUL I don't see a windows partition there [21:02] erUSUL, Oops !! Thanks a million ! I was wondering why 'sudo apt-get install gnumake' wasn't working.... [21:02] .

The system has a level of audio, but various applications may be cranked up or down. For example, when I watch some YouTube videos if I had it loud last time it will be loud again. But unless you intend on making your system hack YouTube's memory of your last volume or something then.... [21:02] chriss_: you are sure? run « sudo fdisk -l » in a terminal and paste the output in a pastebin [21:02] michael99, what you are looking for is some sort of replaygain on live streams, it should be possible i guess, i'am not aware of any specs or actual implementation thought [21:02] EmuAlert: no there are apps that does it correctly like smplayer has normalize option i dunno how it works but is it working === LjL-Temp is now known as Guest12892 [21:03] Lilbit: To clarify - I hold down the "C" key to boot into Ubuntu LIVECD prompt.

I had the same problem when I first loaded Ubuntu. During the updates the mouse is going to be pretty much useless because of the amount of updates needed. If you can type your password on startup then don't worry about the ctrl key on startup. Use the ctrl key to get your mouse back during the updates. Don't have to hold it down, just until the mouse [21:05] starts working again. [21:05] Lilbit: Thank you for your patience. I am an absolute noob at this. I've been winging it. I appreciate your help. [21:05] im just talking about that i have like master volume set to 50% and some apps are very silent and some are loud, cant the system take control of it? normalize itto the same level [21:06] chriss_: is "fdisk -l" note the space and that it is an l ( L ) not a number 1 [21:06] I am too.

Going to give it a try now [21:07] Hello [21:07] Hello guys, i have some problems after installing ubuntu on my desktop. Now a majority of this problem revolves around windows 7 and i do realize this is a ubuntu channel - but the windows channel is of no help to me and i figured people here surely do dual boots so someone might be able to give me some help. [21:07] michael99: I don't know about a system wide normalizer.. but I beleive pulse audio lets you control the volume of each application actively using sound. [21:07] I started installing ubuntu and messed up the manual partitioning by making my secondary physical hd have no filesystem instead of splitting it. this wasn't such a major issue since it wasn't the hd the windows OS was installed on so i continued with installing ubuntu and all that... had to change the hd to boot from in bios since ubuntu installed grub on the non-booting one. [21:07] My windows 7, as a result of all of this, became unable to standby. It shuts off the screens and then just lights up again at the login screen without ever actually going into any hardware standby. Whats wrong? and on top of that my ubuntu is now unusable because i installed nvidia drivers manually and X refuses to start on the account that my nvidia kernel module mismatches the installed... [21:07] is there a good chess interface better than pychess which has FICS support? [21:07] ...driver no matter how many times i run the .run installer. Any ideas? i probably need to clean out the nvidia drivers or something but specifics would be great, Thank you in advance. [21:07] michael99: Ah, yes, I have that problem with such things as, say, SuperTuxKart. The sysem does adjust it but for some reason it's always louder than I think it should be. Not sure what to suggest, though, sadly. I just mute those apps, but I do understand what you're talking about now [21:08] ciao [21:08] its not a normalizer that is needed, check replaygain.org for some theory 1st...

[21:10] well im not sure how to name it, but it would be nice to have it, ive had problem on any system i was, windows / linux some apps silent some loud , system should check somehow what its volume and set it by % to some iso certify or i dunno === denny- is now known as denny [21:11] Starminn, curent theory cant apply to that afaik [21:11] Dcite, it's pdfs as far as i can see it. i have a pdf viewer. the app is Dartuso [21:11] michael99: It's not so much a standard as how loud something was at the time of recording.. so it's hard to set to some variable.. you usually have to adjust manually. [21:11] Say I have a ubuntu disk 1...in rescue mode with a shell open on my machine and I want I read-write access to an NTFS partition [21:11] would I do that please?

[21:12] philluminati: sudo mount -t ntfs-3g /dev/sdxx /mount/point/ [21:12] brontoeee: Replay gain doesn't help much for things too loud.. and has to be set for things that are too soft..

Make sure it's being opened with WINE [21:24] maco: no, i did that [21:24] Leela: So right-click the .exe and hit "Open with Windows Program Loader" (or whatever the exact phrasing is.)
