mr_gnuJonii: I don't have a swap since I have 8 gigs of ram. But that's my preference.00:00
mickster04mr_gnu: well if you wanna use hybernate that won't help any00:00
ActionParsnipJonii: you need swap for hibernate00:00
Noxes42ikonia: Could it possibly be the PCI slot itself? If I were to move the card to another slot, would that make a difference?00:00
Guest93163ok so i can ssh in but only as root00:00
mr_gnumickster04: I never hibernate lol.00:00
mickster04Jonii: but if you don't mind just using sleep, then you don't really need it :p00:00
Guest93163is that normal?00:00
mickster04mr_gnu: me neither00:00
geekbriJonii: the only harm it causes is not having that space available as normal storage.... :)00:00
ActionParsnipGuest93163: me neither00:01
Joniigeekbri, well, I do have more than enough space00:01
mickster04Guest93163: depends if you are doing root@server00:01
immyhow can i delete an encrypted partition created with disk utility?00:01
mickster04Jonii: in which case make a swap partition00:01
Guest93163i tried dave@server and got host terminated00:01
drcmr_gnu: but jonii is from .fi and it gets cold there in the winter00:01
mickster04Guest93163: is dave an account on the server?00:01
Guest93163yes00:02
Geocan someone tell me a c++ help channel?00:02
sparky44i need to organize music on my walkman on ubuntu 10.10 whats the best to use00:02
ActionParsnipGeo: #c++ or #programming00:02
sparky44what program is best to use i mean00:02
mickster04sparky44: banshee and ryhtm box both have that ability i believe00:02
ActionParsnipsparky44: there is no best00:02
mickster04!best | sparky4400:02
neyhayYankDownUnder: It doesn't seem to want to mount.  http://paste.ubuntu.com/570835/00:02
ubottusparky44: Usually, there is no single "best" application to perform a given task. It's up to you to choose, depending on your preferences, features you require, and other factors. Do NOT take polls in the channel. If you insist on getting people's opinions, ask BestBot in #ubuntu-bots.00:02

GeoActionPaesnip thx00:02
PhoenixSTFHow do I apply a patch to the lucid kernel? do i Have to recompile?00:02
mr_gnudrc: lol00:02
ActionParsnip!patch00:03
macoPhoenixSTF: yes00:03
ubottuPatches are files describing the changes in code to achieve some results.  There are a number of ways these can be produced, but https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Bugs/HowToFix and https://wiki.ubuntu.com/PackagingGuide/PatchSystems may provide some useful guidelines.00:03
makefile!path00:03
YankDownUnderneyhay, What happens when you try to manually mount the /dev/sdb1 mate?00:03
JoniiAnd, help page says I should use ext3, but it's good to use ext4?00:04
mickster04Jonii: just use ext400:04
JoniiOk00:04
mickster04Jonii: that help page may be slighty behind...:p00:04
mickster04Jonii: ext4 is still relatively new00:04
functorHow do I blacklist the rt2860 mod(s) in 10.10 netbook in order to use the official one?00:04
functorit seems lsmod has a bunch of them00:05
mickster04!blacklist > functor00:05
ubottufunctor, please see my private message00:05
PhoenixSTFmaco: great how about upgrading lucid server kernel to 2.6.32-25, how do i do that?00:05
immyhow can i delete a "dm-X" device - n is an integer00:05
JoniiSo, I'm making root(that is, "/" as mount point), but why is it logical and not primary? Logical seems less worthy than primary, and my windows partitions are primary00:05
JoniiDoes this matter at all?00:06
sparky44mickster04 thanks and sorry for saying best meant had thoes capabilities00:06
immycan i just go into /dev and sudo rm?00:06
mickster04Jonii: don't worry bout it00:06
functormickster04: rather, "which ones" should i blacklist00:06
ActionParsnipfunctor: just add a new .conf file in /etc/modprobe.d with a .conf extension wuth the words:  blacklist modulename      in the file00:06
functori know how blackist works00:06
macoPhoenixSTF: -25 is no longer in the repos. it's old. bugfixes have pushed it up to -2800:06
functorthere is rt2800lib and sta, but the official one is different00:06
ActionParsnipfunctor: just blacklist what you don't want00:07
JoniiSo I select logical, and choose the amount of memory as installation program suggested, and use ext400:07
Guest93163does anyone know the default password for openssh00:07
macoPhoenixSTF: you could dig it up on launchpad.net if you /really/ want00:07
jribGuest93163: there isn't such a thing00:07
ActionParsnipGuest93163: there isn;t one00:07
Guest93163crap00:07
mr_gnuJonii: You really only need to use logical if you are seperating your "/" partitions00:07
ActionParsnipGuest93163: you use YOUR account to connect00:07
mickster04Jonii: well you shouldn't need to select either logical or primary, it should have been chosen for you?00:07
rwwGuest93163: openssh uses your user account passwords for authentication00:07
Joniimickster04, yeah, it's autoselected as logical00:07
Guest93163then why if i try to login as root@server and i give the password i use for sudo it fails authentication00:07
=== Geo is now known as guest0000
KB1JWQrww: Or ssh keypairs.00:07
macoGuest93163: becauase that's your user's password, not root's00:08
macoGuest93163: root has no password00:08
Guest93163huh...00:08
macoGuest93163: use your username00:08
mickster04Guest93163: cos is shouldbe that sudo isn't an account on the server00:08
JoniiBut this seems a bit weird00:08
PhoenixSTFmaco: yes well i am talking about lucid server, im how can i upgrade the kernel on it? apt-get upgrade wont go above 2.6.32-2100:08
ActionParsnipGuest93163: there is no root pass, that's why. Login as your own user00:08
JoniiBut, I select logical, and it's all good, right?00:08
macoPhoenixSTF: do you not have the security or updates repositories enabled?00:08
mickster04Jonii: if that is what is defaulted yes00:08
macoPhoenixSTF: check your /etc/apt/sources.list00:08
PhoenixSTFmaco: never mixed on sources....00:08
neyhayYankDownUnder: tried both ext3 and 4  http://paste.ubuntu.com/570841/00:09
pareliare there any other way to do so new windows get centered other than using compiz?00:09
Guest93163aha!00:09
Guest93163geniuses the lot of ya00:09
jribpareli: you could use devilspie00:09
jrib!devilspie | pareli00:09
ubottupareli: devilspie is a tool that performs actions on windows in GNOME's metacity such as resizing, positioning, and pinning.  Usage information can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Devilspie00:09
mickster04bbiab00:09
PhoenixSTFmaco: i have all security updates and repositories enable, on apt-get upgrade is says some have been keeped back00:10
Guest93163thanks alot then fellas/lasses im off to play with me ssh terminal00:10
ActionParsnipGuest93163: the sooner you forget about root, the better dude00:10
Guest93163i dont know why i tried root00:10
Guest93163frustration i imagine00:10
macoPhoenixSTF: and lists the kernels specifically?00:10
ActionParsnipGuest93163: if you connect with:  ssh -X name@server   you can use X forwarded apps :)00:10
pareliubottu: so no other way than using 3rd party software?00:10
ubottuError: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :)00:10
PhoenixSTFmaco: its syas linux generic pae00:11
mr_gnuIs the "auto-complete" feature to search the repos in apt-get a some what new feature/patch? I don't remember it in the past.00:11
Jonii"Make sure you've a root and swap partition and that your windows partition has a mount point so you can access it."00:11
Guest93163im using an android phone as the client so i dunno about that00:11
JoniiHow do I do this? Does doing this risk breaking my windows?00:11
macoPhoenixSTF: and if you run "sudo apt-get update" that doesnt change anything?00:11
PhoenixSTFnop00:11
PhoenixSTFmaco : The following packages have been kept back:00:11
PhoenixSTF  linux-generic-pae linux-headers-generic-pae linux-image-generic-pae00:11
Guest93163well im off to play anyway. thanks guys00:11
jribpareli: well presumably you're asking how to do in metacity since you specified wanting to avoid compiz, and metacity is meant to be a very straight-forward window manager.  So yes, you need to use something like devilspie00:11
ActionParsnippareli: http://jetpackweb.com/blog/2009/08/06/ubuntu-tip-force-new-windows-to-open-centered-on-the-desktop/00:12
JoniiLike, how do I make sure windows partition has a mount point?00:13
mr_gnuGood ol' windows, gotta love the dual boot. ^_~00:13
toastyjusticeI am trying to run a couple commands in the background using "at now", but nothing seems to be happening, nor is a job created, maybe I am doing something wrong?00:14
PhoenixSTFmaco : is it on backports?00:14
gr8Qanyone run playonlinux here00:15
jribtoastyjustice: we can only know if you tell us what you are doing00:15
jribgr8Q: best to just ask the channel your actual question (on a single line)00:15
JoniiWindows partition, mount point?00:15
ActionParsniptoastyjustice: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ClamAV   has an example of 'at' being used at the bottom00:15
toastyjusticeLike: at now; touch /tmp/test;00:15
nRydoes anyone know I can search if my system has a driver named: ds9490r00:15
toastyjusticeDoesn't create the file00:15
nRyI need to find out if Ubuntu ships with this driver and if so if I can safely remove it00:16
jribtoastyjustice: you run at now, you get a new line, you type "touch /tmp/test", you press enter, you press ctrl-d00:16
ActionParsnipnRy: try:  sudo modprobe ds9490r      if you get no error, it exists00:17

parelican i turn off the capabilities to use mouse in a particular terminal?00:17
toastyjusticeJrib: Perfect, thanks! I knew it had to be the exit keystroke I was messing up00:17
jribpareli: no idea, but I'm curious as to why?00:18
entityHi guys. I wanna grow my ubuntu partition.00:18
jribtoastyjustice: at reads jobs from stdin (that's why it prompts you like that).  You could also do something like: echo touch /tmp/test | at now00:18
ActionParsnipentity: do it in live CD environment00:19
toastyjusticeOh yeah, that pipe uses the prior command as input, right?00:19
parelijrib: i have a transparent terminal in the upper left corner of my desktop, and for more desktop intergration i was thinking of turning of the usage of mouse in that terminal00:19
entityfabulous.00:19
jribtoastyjustice: command1 | command2 sends stdout from command1 to stdin of command200:19

nRyActionParsnip: http://pastebin.com/96BuLHmJ00:20
entityAhh ActionParsnip. I remember you. Thanks for the suggestion. I'll get on that.00:20
jribpareli: so you'd want it to sort of pass through?  What do you want it to do when you right click on it?   Act like nothing happened, or act like you right clicked on the desktop?00:20
th0rpareli: depending on what is displayed in the terminal you might be better served to use something like conky00:21
ActionParsnipnRy: if you are root, you don't need sudo00:21
voglsterany experts on routing here?00:21
snowrichardvoip apps like paltalk or skype seem to have a little trouble with the audio streaming though00:21
ActionParsnipvoglster: in what sense00:22
nRyok, but does this mean the driver is not present?00:22
ActionParsnipnRy: you should also run:   mv /etc/modprobe.d/virtualgl /etc/modprobe.d/virtualgl.conf   to supress that message00:22
parelijrib: i want so nothing happens when i click on it, just so when mouseover theres no way to click on the terimnal, the only way i want to use it is by: alt&tab00:22

parelijrib: i'l check into that, right now im using xfce4-terminal as the desktop terminal, the terminal itself can be configured to be totaly transparent + noborders, and so on.00:25
voglsterActionParsnip, internet works fine, but noting in network B can access resources in network A00:25
ActionParsnipJonii: grub2 will overwrite the windows loader and will manage the dual boot for you entirely00:25
voglsterActionParsnip, but everything in network A can access network B resources.. http, ssh, rdp etc...00:25
ActionParsnipvoglster: can you ping the IP addresses in LAN A from LAN B00:25
JoniiActionParsnip, sounds good enough00:25
voglsterActionParsnip, and I can both ways00:25
voglsterActionParsnip, ping*00:25
ActionParsnipvoglster: and can you ping names?00:25
voglsterActionParsnip, yup.. dns works fine00:25
shigutsoI have a 1GB flashdrive with badblocks. Is there any Linux command to fix that? Or at least hide the badblocks?00:26
jason__guys, do i need a chromium apparmor profile? or it's ok the way as it is?00:26
ActionParsnipvoglster: ok, what resources areyou trying to access00:26
voglsterActionParsnip, http, ssh, anything really...00:26
ActionParsnipjason__: seems fine here00:26
ActionParsnipvoglster: are you using the local accounts when you SSH or do you have a domain controller?00:26
jason__ActionParnship, thx :-)00:27
voglsterActionParsnip, i can access those resources on network A's router from network B (i think but id need to verify) but i cannot get to a webserver located somewhere in network A00:27
voglsterActionParsnip, Local00:27
ActionParsnipvoglster: if you can ping the IP then you shouold be able to connect to the services on the system as the logical connection is present00:27
voglsterActionParsnip, my thoughts exactly ;-)00:28
parelijrib: by tilda and yakuka you mean drop-down terminal? for that i'm using guake-terminal00:28
voglsterActionParsnip, guessing its a firewall issue with network A's default gateway00:28
jribpareli: yeah00:28
nRy<ActionParsnip: is that message going to possibly cause any problems on the system?00:28
parelijrib: ok, thanks but il see00:28
ActionParsnipnRy: it means that the file with the bad name isn't being processed, so whatever you added in there isn't being used00:29
parelijrib: into the posibilities on writing your own script for the window not to be selected by mouse00:29
=== Enissay__ is now known as Enissay
ActionParsnipvoglster: have you setup the forwarding of the ports used by the other protocols to go to the other LAN, kinda like an internal port forward00:30
voglsterActionParsnip, nope... in fact the ubuntu box has a blank firewall...00:30
voglsterActionParsnip, just accept all00:30
ActionParsnipvoglster: strange00:30
voglsterActionParsnip, exactly00:31
Jeruvyvoglster: its true, but you can quickly add a deny all rule and then add from there.00:31
ActionParsnipvoglster: maybe you need a rule to push packets  destined to a certain subnet mask down the relevant interface00:32
voglsterActionParsnip, then why is ping working? hehe00:32
ActionParsnipvoglster: not sure, maybe icmp is handled automagically00:32
Bing0Hi. Ubuntu 10.10.  What is the best way to share files between two Ubuntu machines?  I tried SSH but the overhead on the CPU is too high. This is LAN traffic so security isn't important for this.  Thanks!00:33
aeon-ltd!samba | Bing000:33
ubottuBing0: Samba is the way to cooperate with Windows environments. Links with more info: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MountWindowsSharesPermanently and https://help.ubuntu.com/10.04/serverguide/C/windows-networking.html - Samba can be administered via the web with SWAT.00:33
voglsterBing0, samba?00:33
avis-su do00:33
voglsterActionParsnip, i like that... automagically00:33
ActionParsnipBing0: samba is quick and dirty and will accommodate windows clients should you get any00:33
ActionParsnipvoglster: I'd look at the route table of the central PC to make sure it smells right.00:34
ActionParsnipBing0: its not the best way, as a best way doesn't exist00:34
ActionParsnipBing0: you could setup tftp and it will be quick :)00:35

ActionParsnipharold: if you want hibernate then you'll need swap, or if you expect to exhuast your RAM (Large image manipulation or video edittng will do that), You will need 3Gb RAM at least00:37
drcharold: conventional wisdom say swap = ram00:37
ActionParsnipvoglster_: can you pastebin that please, irc is killing the formatting00:37
voglster_harold, you dont "need" swap if you never go over 3 gigs of ram but thats a BAAAD thing.. if you EVER do... system will panic and lock00:38
haroldbut I allocated free space of HDD to swap. I have other partitions which are logical not primary. can i change swap area to them?? Like windows uses pagefile in other partitions???00:38

sasy360guys i'm trying to compile a software and it needs a package but it's packaged with a little different in title so it could not find it00:48
parelii cant't seem to open gconf-conf, isn't gconf-conf standard on gnome?00:49
SakuyaJordan_U:  this http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en/w7itproSP/thread/9083e953-f06c-4041-8977-115235359e2300:49
Zosohey does anyone know where to point me to a chat about LDAP/SAMBA00:49
allisonvollsasy360: what is the package?00:49
daniel_treeChogyDan, should I cancel compiling the kernel ??and try this ppa method ?? or would it take as long ?00:49
ActionParsnippareli: gconf-editor do you mean?00:49
Roman34Every 60 seconds (exactly) the sound goes mute if I use build in loudspeaker but never happens with headphones (works just fine) on Ubuntu 10.10, any clue?00:49
shcherbakpareli: gconf-editor ?00:49
WeThePeopleActionParsnip, LOL, this is so easy!!00:49
bc81dostoj: something like this: http://pastebin.com/mRwALAuV   (make executable, click it when you wan the button layout back)00:50
blackstarActionParsnip .. the files does not exist on lucid or maverick00:50
ChogyDandaniel_tree: the ppa would only take a few minutes, the other a few hours.  It is allot quicker.  You should be able to try and install some of the ppa kernels while the compile is running00:50
ActionParsnipWeThePeople: yeah, its good for helping folks who forget their admin pass :)00:50
sasy360allisonvoll: actually i'm on sabayon. trying to compile midori and it needs valac but it's packaged as vala00:50
dostojbc81, thanks, i will try that00:51
daniel_treeChogyDan, is it ok if I install the latest one v.26.38 -rc6 natty on 10.10 ?00:51
allisonvollsasy360: you can do # apt-cache search valac00:51
ChogyDanya00:51
pareliActionParsnip: gconf-editor is that the gnome registry editor?00:51
ActionParsnipblackstar: it assumes server which runs syslogd00:52
pareliActionParsnip: that did the trick00:52
allisonvollsasy360: if you want to compile by hand, probably you will need the -dev package with contains librarys and headers files00:52
ActionParsnippareli: its the gnome settings editor, its similar to the windows registry but isnt nearly as sensitive00:52
blackstarok, how about and a desktop can  that be enable also?00:52
nRyactionparsnip: http://pastebin.com/sWUJu6vg00:53
daniel_treeChogyDan, only the image and the headers ?? or should I download all the files ???00:53
ActionParsnipblackstar: if you add the line to one of the stop commands in the system it will work, or make your own init.d script and have the shutdown stuff call it00:53
ChogyDandaniel_tree: yeah, image and headers00:54
ActionParsnipnRy: use tab to complete the filenames00:54
blackstarok cool00:54

Roman34Can I get some help please: Every 60 seconds (exactly) the sound goes mute if I use build in loudspeaker but never happens with headphones (works just fine) on Ubuntu 10.10, any clue?00:54
Jordan_USakuya: Interesting, thanks for the link. You can re-install grub from a liveCD/USB or even install grub to a CD/USB so that it doesn't need to be in the mbr if you'd like to try to work around the problem. It is truly surprising though.00:54

StoqLivebasket (notepad)...i don't if it is  problem..or after the update by canonical...01:22
mickster04StoqLive: what does that do?01:22

mickster04uhuh, so how did you expect that to work? i mean it shouldn't cause a kernel panic but... and i assume all kernels reach kernel panic?01:24
StoqLiveafter the install and remove this app i saw that some libs are duplicated and triplicated at /usr/lib...i decide to remove some01:24
StoqLivemickster04 yes01:24
mickster04StoqLive: oh man, well done, sudo apt-get autoremove && apt-get autoclean would have been  better01:24
mickster04StoqLive: i think you may have quite broken your install...i mean kernel panics are beyond me, if you can boot a live cd and back up any data do...otherwise...i dunno what to suggest01:25
StoqLivemickter04  i tried it01:26
mickster04StoqLive: tried what?01:26

RoastedIs there a reason why Rhythmbox doesn't detect all of my music on my mp3 player? Each time I plug it in, Rhythmbox "imports" a different number. It varies from, 0, 690, 665, 700, 890, 1100, etc. Yet the number NEVER changes....01:45
nejodeteddyb,  remember to run "sudo apt-get -f install" after reboot to fix the broken install01:45

RoastedJeruvy, no, but I'd REALLY like to stick with rhythmbox since it does a nice job of playlist handling with my Sansa...01:48
alberthello01:48
RoastedJeruvy, I just hate how right now, it picked up 461 songs when there's almost 1200 on here.01:48
drcRoasted: After watching this struggle for days :) ... maybe it's time to try #rhythmbox on irc.gnome.org ?01:48
mickster04DandyKoffin: well ask wine channel01:48
JeruvyRoasted: OK, Can't say I've had any luck with rythmbox  personally.01:48

xrdodrxDoes Ubuntu have fluid handwriting recognition like Windows 7?01:50
Roastedoh look! Rhythmbox has detected 482 songs this time, whereas 5 minutes ago it was 461. BUT... there's 1200 on here. Isn't that cute?01:50
Roastedg_0_0, yeah, tried it. didn't work.01:50
GeekManoh i didnt give it enough time i guess lol01:51
nejodetokinjoe, if you're using virtualbox you need to install "guest additions"01:51

mickster04GeekMan: add 3 before pressing tab01:52
Roastedtheos, because I like to , you know, manage my music collection on my mp3 player.01:52
Roastedtheos, evidently all of the linux players fail to do so.01:52
drcRoasted: I'd try #rhythmbox on irc.gnome.org (the horse's mouth) ... after all this time, it can't hurt01:53
theosRoasted, why so? whats your problem in linux?01:53
JeruvyRoasted: gmusicbrowser is the only player that manages my library, rythmbox is crap.01:53
ruanthere still are more01:53
sacarlsonimmy: for that kind of thing I use virtualbox so I can try it and not break anything. in fact in ubuntu 8.04 I ran virtualbox to get my printer to work on a 64bit machine01:53
mickster04hydester: use sudo with that command01:53

theosRoasted, almost all players in ubuntu can manage mp3 atleast. m4b is a problem i guess01:54
TeligardI was wondering if anyone has had issues where their floppy and hard drives go through a seek check about 20 times after logging in01:54
Roastedtheos, rhythmbox won't see all of my music. each time I plug in, it sees a different amount. 490, 482, 1100, 690, 800, 700, 665, it just sees random amounts and seems to skip over a lot of bands I have on there. Banshee works but shuts off at random times and its playlist support as of now sucks, exaile's playlists come up empty on my sansa when I unplug and all other players don't have the support I need.01:54
trebuchetlol01:54
immythx for the tip sacarlson01:54
Teligardadditionally, I run into a similiar issue with the login audio01:54

kindarihey guys, migrating a windows server over to ubuntu. There is a raid card installed with two hard drives setup for raid 1, the card itself reports raid is just fine (pre ubuntu.) Not sure how ubuntu handles raid though. When doing "lshw -C disk" I see both of the disks in the array, trying to decide how I should go about mounting one.02:23
ubuntu_mickster04 yes02:23
raidotrentg: it is possible to install a server kernel on a desktop install but you would know it you did that02:23

crlcan81and with the changes I make to my system constantly I rarely am on for more then a day or two before I'm restarting for some reason, usually a change that makes it prettier or easier for me to alter aspects of.04:00
arandMrCleanWithHair: And the request is offtopic here, I'm afraid.04:01
crlcan81no actually gaelfx, it's fine :P waiting on updates, once that's done I'm going to do a quick menu check to remove via sudo some entries.04:01
gaelfxTrav: it sounds like the partition manager made a mistake, you might need to do it by hand04:01
MrCleanWithHairarand, this channels so noisy anyway it doesnt really matter does it.04:01
gaelfxcrlcan81: hey, that doesn't sound too bad!04:01
crlcan81got some multiple programs that do the same thing, going to take out the ones I added that don't work or don't really alter anything at all, becuase it's for the earlier version of Ubuntu.04:01
mickster04bbl04:01
arandMrCleanWithHair: It matter exactly bcause of that.04:01
jordan_hypatia, hey04:02
crlcan81since I want to alter splash screens and splash screen doesn't do that for me.04:02
crlcan81gotta restart for kernal update though.04:02
crlcan81once it's done :(04:03
hypatiahey jordan_ how is your ubuntu going04:03
hypatiagood luck crlcan8104:03
gaelfxcrlcan81: yeah, it's pretty tough to get around that one, but it actually is possible to update kernel without rebooting04:03

grom358I've got the environment variables set according to phpinfo()04:06
sxndavecrlcan81 : Ive notice somthing similar before, I believe it changes the toolbar icon for restrat required directly after installing the package that requires the restart. the rest will just finish as normal. You can then restart when you are ready04:06
hypatiayeah definitely don't restart til it's done installing04:06

coihi guys. does the graphical installer for 10.10 not provide a way to do full-disk encryption? or do i still need to use the alternate cd approach?04:07
sxndavefair point, never thought of it that way tbh04:07
hypatiac-unit: just ask your question :)04:07
hypatiacoi still need the alternate04:07
coithanks hypatia04:07
hypatiacoi: the graphical installer only does homedir encryption04:08
coihypatia, thanks :D thats what i thought/had04:08
hypatiai look forward to the day when FDE is in the main installer :)04:08

crlcan81yay all the unnecessary packages are removed, what exactly is knetattach?04:11
albertc-unit, i am sorry04:11
gaelfxyou know what would be pretty handy? if there was an easy way to share info about your system with someone trying to help, like they could search through what packages you have installed, system version and stuff like that04:11
WeThePeoplesacarlson, no it never started when i logged into Lubuntu04:12
crlcan81only one I have no clue if I need or not, the rest I removed I knew I'd not need as I had alternatives alaready installedes04:12

Jinxed- or later04:12
hypatiacoi: the alt installer lets you do encrypted lvm, which encrypts everything except your kernel04:12

gaelfxJinxed-: you should check out the PPA for blender04:12

DouglasKQuestion, how do you find which package contains a specific file?05:06
sxndaveSenjai: In nautilus, select 'File > conect to server...'. There are several options of how to do it. You will either need to have ssh access to the remote machine and use that account of ftp access to it.05:07

macoDouglasK: ^ its not from an ubuntu package05:08

=== nick is now known as Guest52834
Senjaisxndave, sftp uses ssh protocol, ftp uses.. ftp protocol.05:11
Senjaisxndave, that's what I'm trying to do05:11

motionwhat I have done this time, which is a bit different then most times when I've installed ubuntu is I've used one hard disk - 500mb, windows has half and linux has half, 250 - so linux being linux I've given it a 20gb SWAP and a 210gb EXT4 -- after installing ubuntu using the manual-partitioner via ubuntu installer it fails to boot through GRUB giving me no selection of OS, just booting into ubuntu05:16

MACscrgrrr, i dont get it, no matter what i select in ubuntu, its using my hdmi for sound output08:43
syrinxi believe it is...should i go down there and check?08:44
coz_thauriswulfa1,  festival is "text to speech"   it doesnt have an interface  ,, it will work with any application that needs test to speech...  you could open a terminal and type     man festival08:44

p896gbmhi folks. i have a RAID question. i have an external 1TB usb harddrive which had been flaking out for a few weeks and stopped responding entirely, so i disassembled it and found two regular 512MB drives. i took them out and added them to my computer and both seem to work fine; no smart failures or anything. one of them contains the start of the filesystem; fsck says the filesystem size is twice the drive size. the other has no superblock.09:14
p896gbmsince this appears to be a simple raid array, my question is how do i assemble it so i can rescue the data?09:14
gaelfxcoz_: yes, the system is totally updated, but you don't understand, I didn't have this problem in 10.04 and I really would prefer not to use git just to get vlc working09:15

p896gbmikonia: no clue. it's just a very small circuit board that connected both drives. it has two sata ports, two hdd power connectors, a connector for a power adapter and a usb port, that's it09:17
ikoniap896gbm: is it mdadm based on a hardware raid solution ?09:17
coz_gaelfx,  no I couldnt find any other channel that could help with t his...although stay here and ask again ... others may have a solution that I do not...also you could ask in ##linux  ,,, its possible someone there may also have a solution09:17
p896gbmikonia: i have no clue. i tried assembling it with mdadm but i don't really know what i'm doing. i'm hoping it's just a raid-0 array but i don't know09:18
ikoniap896gbm: before touching it with mdadm you need to know the technology that the device was put together with09:18
greenIThi, does any1 know how to install javaME on ubuntu?09:18
p896gbmikonia: i assume the circuit board implemented a hardware raid array; the usb drive showed up as a single partition whenever you plugged it into a computer, no drivers needed09:18
ikoniap896gbm: if it's hardware array, then you'll need the hardware array to build it09:19
p896gbmikonia: ok. is there a way i can find that out? i thought i would first try assembling it as raid-0. it seems the most logical thing the hardware would do09:19
p896gbmikonia: why? isn't raid-0 a standard way of assembling drives? i should be able to emulate that with a software like mdadm, no?09:19
ikoniap896gbm: using mdadm to assemble it if it's a hardware controlled array will help09:19
p896gbmk09:19
beliveyourdreamis there a software for vector graphics with a command line like autocad ?09:19
ikoniap896gbm: sorry, typed that terrible09:19

=== cftygv is now known as ededdy
p896gbmso? there's gotta be a way i can reassemble the filesystem on here. if i can figure out how it's striped, i could in theory create a 1gb file, copy all the chunks in, and then loopmount the file09:21
p896gbmi mean the data is all there, it's mountable *somehow*09:21
ikoniap896gbm: why does there have to be a way ?09:21
p896gbmi'm not sure why i need the hardware. the hardware is dead09:21
p896gbmikonia: there has to be a way because the drives are fine, it's the controller that died09:21
ikoniap896gbm: you need the hardware as it knows and understands (and builds and presents) the finished array09:21
p896gbmk09:22
ikoniap896gbm: yes, but the controller is what makes the raid array, if that is dead a different raid technology doesn't understand how it's built09:22
p896gbmikonia: yes i know that, that's why i figured i would start by assuming it's raid-009:22
p896gbmisn't raid-0 a standard? different controllers would mount it the same way, no?09:22
ikoniap896gbm: assuming it's raid-0 is pointless if you don't know how it's built09:22
p896gbmk09:23

castMACscr: actually, you can09:26
ikoniap896gbm: it's not telling it how to stripe, guessing it's raid-0 is fine, but the layout of the disks and how it's assembled and intergrity depends on the device that built it09:27

MACscrbut that would mean they would have to share the same kernel, correct?09:28
castyip, sure09:28
castwhat kernel does android use again?09:28
castone wouldn't use chroot, but....i think you're getting my point09:29
p896gbmikonia: i'm not convinced of that. i'm sure it's simple, because it looks simple. i can even mount the first drive alone, and see the directory structure. this is a simple ext2 filesystem09:29
castfor what its worth, linux can run under linux as a process, aka UML09:29
[deXter]cast: depends on the android version. for instance mine is running 2.6.37.109:29
p896gbmikonia: if i fsck the first drive, it recognizes the ext2 filesystem and can even repair it. it says the filesystem is twice the size of the drive09:29
ikoniap896gbm: if you can mount the first drive, it probably isn't a raid disk09:29
cast[deXter]: right, so it uses linux :P09:30
ikoniap896gbm: if it was a raid device you wouldn't be able to mount the first disk unless it was raid 1 possibly09:30
wonderwal-hi which kernel does 10.10 server come with?09:30
wonderwal-!kernels09:30
castwith linux its pretty trivial to seperate OS instances with the likes of vserver and openvz,09:30
MACscrcast: yeah, i see your point. Im not a big fan of chroot setups09:30
llutz_wonderwal-: 2.6.35-2209:31
p896gbmikonia: ok. so it's probably not raid then. it's something simpler. do you think the controller just put the two drives back to back? maybe i should just cat the two devices together into a file and try loopmounting it09:31
castthough...back to the original question, i was more thinking it would be feasible to install android on a piece of similar hardware, such as an ARM laptop09:31
wonderwal-llutz_: whats the -22 for? theyre on 2.6.35.1109:32
ikoniap896gbm: no, I don't think the second drive was but back to back as that would be raid 1 and I don't think there is any raid on it09:32
castikonia: that would not be raid 109:32
p896gbmikonia: well raid-1 would replicate the data, no? there's no replication here09:32
ikoniasorry raid 009:32
ikoniatypo, had raid 1 on the brain09:32
castikonia: that would not be raid 0, either, unless you set the strip size to the size of the disks09:32
p896gbmi thought raid-0 striped it for better speed09:32
ikoniacast: I agree it would not be raid 0, which is what I said09:33
p896gbmcast: do you know if i can tell mdadm, or some other tool, to mount it as a raid array with the strip size == the size of the disks?09:33
ikoniap896gbm: yes, but to make two disks presented as one file system would have to be done through some sort of raid or lvm09:33
castp896gbm: rather than catting the two devices together you could suggest using a dmsetup to create a virtual device that was the concat of the two drives09:33
MACscrgrrr, this audio thing is driving me crazy. Why the heck is ubuntu not switching my sound output back to the correct device. its showing that it switched, yet all apps still use hdmi09:33
ikoniap896gbm: 1.) there is no raid used on your disks 2.) you cannot tell mdadm to build arrays out of other raid technology disks/arrays09:33
p896gbmikonia: is there a linux tool to do that in software? or should i try telling my motherboard it's a raid array and booting from a livecd?09:33
ikoniap896gbm: its NOT a raid array09:34
MACscrhere is some of my pacmd output: http://pastebin.com/9pxHujxf. Any help is sincerely appreciated09:34
p896gbmcast: that would be great. so dmsetup will let me do that?09:34
p896gbmcast: k i will try that09:34
wonderwal-what is kernel 2.6.35-22 ?  is that 2.6.35.0 with patches or something?09:34
castikonia: actually, you can, mdadm surprising supports non-mdadm native arrays...it won't support all the various HW and fake and soft raid formats, but i believe it supports a few09:34
ikoniacast: it never works09:35
wonderwal-:'(09:35
ikoniacast: the main ones, LSI/3com/HPciss it never works due to the private region data not being accessible09:35
ikoniaor in an understan09:35
ikoniaoops09:35
castthat private region is enforced by the raid controller :P if you have the raid controller, you'd use that for raid...09:36
ikoniacast: totally agree09:36
castit is annoying how some raid cards don't obviously have a way to just act as a normal sata/sas controller09:37
castp896gbm: dmsetup will, using linear mappings. the devicemapper is how cryptsetup/mdadm/lvm implement their functionality09:38

oopepeHi, where is a good place to store my custom iptables script in ubuntu so that it gets loaded on server reboot? Im running ubuntu server 10.04. I dont want to use ufw.09:50
p896gbmcast: cool. the filesystem size (indicated when i fsck it) seems to imply that the number of sectors used is slightly less than the number on the drive. blockdev gives me 976773105, but if i work out half the filesystem size it's 976768032. i'll try it both ways09:50
MACscrhmm, could my pulseaudio be failing and alsa is being used instead? Seems none of my pulseaudio options are working09:50
MACscri cant even use the master volume controls (aka, they dont apply)09:51
Gneaoopepe: I just save it somewhere like this:  iptables-save > /etc/network/firewall  then call it at boottime in /etc/network/interfaces like this:  post=up iptables-restore < /etc/network/firewall09:51
Gneaoopepe: er, post-up09:51
YankDownUnderoopepe, You can use /etc/rc.local => put the contents of the script there, or call it from that script.09:51

MACscraka, sound contorls09:52
MACscrcontrols09:53
MACscrhow do i know which is being used?09:53
GneaMACscr: alsa is the driver that makes the sound hardware work - pulseaudio is nothing more than an application layer that attempts to form a mold around it. alsa has historically been better, is better, and will always be better than using a sound daemon. pulse works good for some hardware situations, though.09:53
TalicomI am dual booting with windows 7. how would i be able to mount the partition that my windows files are in on startup?09:54

ubottuTalicom: To view your Windows/Mac partitions see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AutomaticallyMountPartitions - For write access, see !NTFS-3g or !FUSE09:54
GneaMACscr: you can easily control alsa (And have more fine-tuned control) by using alsamixer09:54
MACscrGnea: everything worked fine until a yesterday when i changed the default output to my hdmi temporarily09:54
Talicomthanks09:54

bullgardIs there a Ubuntu command to print the known hosts in the LAN?09:56

Back4More420if I can get the drivers from this OS I could then put them in the UE11:21
Jean1penalvch: I don't want to use sudo all the time11:21
spidlaJonii, I thought that you want to get back to Windows install only . Then the proble is probably in the GRUB loader configuration. Try to boot from Ubuntu live-cd and then you can access your Ubuntu partition and repair GRUB11:22
Joniispidla, hmm... GRUB is this Ubuntu-related OS-choice-manager-thing?11:23
Lintdr0id, not for rm11:23

GneaBack4More420: I think you'll want to ask in #ultimateedition11:25

(e.g. how to check for how long sockets are open, to some certain IP, during say 1minute)11:34
spidlaJonii, there should be a list of available operating systems. There you can delete the Wubi lines and you can set your Vista installation as a default operating system. Second boot menu should disappear11:34
Gnea!tv | bibic68211:34
ubottubibic682: http://www.linuxtv.org/ has extensive information about using TV cards under Linux.

For both analog and digital cards, !MythTV is a powerful framework. Your card may work the !IVTV drivers. See also !TV-Out11:34

SataurosThalius, and that worked? (i'll be configuring a primary and secondairy mail relay, is this possible?)12:41
Sataurosjrib, the link you gave doesn't mention anything about sendmail, any other suggestions?12:42
ThaliusSatauros: You can try. It can easy be configured using exim-config.12:42
Satauroswithout GUI?12:42
jribSatauros: you can use postfix or exim.  If you really want to use sendmail, sure use that.  Each of these projects have their own irc channel for configuration questions12:43
Sataurosok, *searches for the sendmail irc channel :p*12:43
ThaliusSatauros: It has a commandline gui, really easy to config12:43
jribSatauros: out of curiousity, why do you want to use sendmail if you don't know how to configure it?12:44

Sataurosdue to lack of other options, jrib12:44
jribSatauros: but we just gave you two other options12:44
Sataurosmy boss told me to set the mail relay on the ubuntu server12:45
Sataurosso first option i noticed, sendmail12:45
jribSatauros: I've always used exim, mostly because sendmail is notorious for being difficult to configure :/12:45
Sataurosfirst come, first serve12:45
bfriany one help me find where my temp files are when i open a youtube page?12:45
Sataurosok, exim it is12:45
Sataurosyou've convinced me12:45
Satauros^^12:45
Sataurosi suppose a simple sudo apt-get install exim will do the trick?12:46
ThaliusSatauros: yes12:46
jribSatauros: might be exim4, check the link12:46
Sataurosi'll try right away12:46
ThaliusSatauros: exim4 indeed. After that use sudo exim4-config, youll get this: http://library.linode.com/web-applications/project-management/redmine/images/redmine-debian-5-exim-config-1.png12:47
Sataurosok installed  - i'm so happy it automatically uninstalled sendmail :D -12:47
bfriany one help me find where my temp files are when i open a youtube page?12:48
Sataurosdon't you mean sudo dpkg-reconfigure exim4-config Thalius?12:49
jribbfri: /home/jrib/.mozilla/firefox/p26rxi5a.default/Cache ?12:49
jribbfri: or whatever your *.default directory is.12:49
Sataurosso that worked Thalius, now, in order to make this work (using our primary and secondairy mail relay), which option should i choose best?12:50
Satauros(yes i have entered n00b mode)12:50
ThaliusSatauros: Dont know tbh. Been some while since i configged it, and i only use 1 relay12:51
bfrijrib: i dont have that location you mentioned and i just up graded to 10.04 and my default directory no longer has them12:51
doodiehow do I join 2 empty partitions using gparted?12:52
jribbfri: you don't have ~/.mozilla/firefox/*.default/Cache?12:52
ThaliusSatauros: I picked the internetsite option, since that matched my needs/requirements12:52
SataurosThalius, i suppose i should be choosing 'mail send by smarthost, no local mail'?12:53
Sataurosin my case12:53
ThaliusSatauros: would make sense since you dont want to host a mailserver on the same host, and only want to send out forgot-my-passwords mail12:53
=== peregrinator_six is now known as dial_up_br
ThaliusSatauros: You can always check if the relay works by sending a mail from commandline.12:54

jribbfri: can you answer my question?12:55
bfrijrib: no i dont have that directory12:57

Sataurosnext question, to set my primary and secondary DNS, i suppose i only have to edit the /etc/resolv.conf file?12:58
bfrijrib: ok there it is i was trying to just go to that directory manually12:58
ThaliusSatauros: Yup. considering you dont have a daemon generating the config file12:59
Sataurosyes I read that the dhcp3 client reconfigures that resolv.conf file12:59
Sataurosbut i'll be using a static IP, so probably will remove the dhcp client, if possible13:00

pilasOk, so I am doing my first hard disk install on a 500GB ATA with one NTFS partition with my windows on. Ubuntu needs its own linux partition: Can I trust linux to do the partition without fucking up windows?13:14

rams_panducan I access windows vista desktop from ubuntu10.04?13:18

Neosanorams_pandu, desktop?13:18
MaslowKWell13:18
Neosanoyou mean desktop folder?13:18
rams_panduMaslowK, can you tell me how?13:19
MaslowKDepends on what you mean by that13:19
jribshane4ubuntu: what do you mean, you linked it?  When you install ddclient it should automatically be there13:19
MaslowKIf you mean having both installed and being able to switch between them, you can do that.13:19
AbhijiTrams_pandu, use teamviewer13:19
shane4ubuntujrib hmm, mine wasn't at least I don't think it was, yes, I linked it.13:19
rams_panduNeosano, I mean i have many apps on windows, I want to access all of then from ubuntu. like start button, programs etc13:19
jribshane4ubuntu: how did you install it?  Surely, you used apt?13:19
shane4ubuntujrib: if it was in there it is possible that I linked over top of it, but I'm about 90% sure it wasn't running13:19
MaslowKOh, well.13:19
Neosanothat's a different thing..13:20
shane4ubuntujrib yep apt13:20
MaslowKNot really rams_pandu13:20
AbhijiTrams_pandu, is this vista and ubuntu installed on the same hard disk?13:20
jribshane4ubuntu: ddclient package includes /etc/init.d/ddclient13:20
Neosanorams_pandu, mostly no. though you can install windows on a virtual machine and use windows from linux.13:20
shane4ubuntujrib, it didn't seem to be running though, is there a way to check if it is running/configured correctly?13:20
rams_panduAbhijiT, yeah, both are installed on the same harddisk13:20
jribshane4ubuntu: furthermore, what exactly did you link?  /etc/init.d/ contains init scripts, it's not just links to executables13:21
AbhijiTrams_pandu, hmm then you cant access vista menus programs from ubuntu. you can only access files, folders, data, music, videos, etc13:21
shane4ubuntujrib: sudo ln -s /usr/sbin/ddclient /etc/init.d/13:21
jribshane4ubuntu: yeah, that's not correct13:21
shane4ubuntujrib, ok, should I remove the link and re-install ddclient?13:22
jribshane4ubuntu: yeah, purge and install again13:22
rams_panduAbhijiT, yeah, I know that. In my hard disk windows and ubuntu are installed in different partitions13:22
NeosanoDo you guys know how can I catch window events? I need to see if there's any window fullscreened.13:22
AbhijiTrams_pandu, still you cant13:22
jribshane4ubuntu: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DynamicDNS walks you through the configuration13:22

sipiorHowler: if your domain is already pointed there, yes. but if you don't expect the machines on your local network to be reached directly from the larger internet, there's no need for an fqdn. each machine with a fqdn should be listed in an authoritative name server. that's probably overkill for a home network.14:07
supremehmm anybody around who can tell me the route add command to route all traffic to ppp0 ?14:08
sipiorHowler: if your domain points to the internet side of your home router, you can use port forwarding to direct service requests from that external address to the appropriate internal machines, without involving the dns further.14:08

Voitaoliver do I type the pathway under exec=?14:11
Howlersipior: Sure, I understand that. No reason for the outside world to reach any machine except my webserver. I just saw that sendmail kept complaining about not knowing its fqdn, and I didn't know that I should have one =). But, that makes sense, I really only need a fqdn for machines that can be seen by the outside world. That's why sendmail cares...because why would it be on a machine the outside world can't see.14:12
Howlersipior: Thanks for helping me understand.14:12
sipiorHowler: sure. are you really running sendmail, and not postfix? postfix is much easier to configure (and the machine itself doesn't need an fqdn, you simply have to tell the mailer what to use).14:13
sipiorHowler: you might also look into ssmtp, which probably fits better with your expected usage.14:13

delemiJust a general question. I encrypted a raid array for a dentists office today, he is running server v10 w/ all updates. He asked me if there was a destructive encryption in case some one tried to access it. Like a 3 tries system and then it corrupts the data. He has secure backup offsite. He is worried about patient records.16:10

uRockjuk, no doubt18:33

stianhjGuest83497, i386 version is the correct version for you18:35

Tigerboyjoeoshawa those are in addition to the analog ports in the back which are used for the speakers19:31
ActionParsnipaddiks: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat/+archive/x-updates   has 270 beta driver. The 260 driver nearly ALL new nvidia chips19:32
Tigerboyjoeoshawa on win 7 they are sep so you can turn on the headset but the speakers off or both on19:32
joeoshawaok so you have sound just no headset19:32
Tigerboyjoeoshawa and you can turn on hdmi and digital also19:32
mikebotIf my system is set up to dual boot to windows and unr, if I format my entire hdd, if I try to install something on the blank hdd, will the grub thing be messed up?19:32
Tigerboyjoeoshawa onlything not working is the analog headset port in front19:32
joeoshawaahh19:33
Tigerboyjoeoshawa we are trying to get off of win 7 dual booting19:33
joeoshawak one sec your lucky actually none of my headset ports work in ubuntu lol19:33

fnkyspccdtHey guys, anyone know of common issues with Wubi on ubuntu 10.04.2 ?19:35
joeoshawayeah i am sure we can i just never bothered cause i have a headset jack on my speakers and i have a kinda complicated setup19:35
fnkyspccdtit installs from windows, reboots, and then i just get a blank screen, keyboard doesn't even respond to numblock19:35
fnkyspccdtand then monitor loses sync19:35
fnkyspccdtand i have to reset the pc19:35
joeoshawamy desktop is also my htpc19:35
mikebotThinkT510: OK, even the boot loader preferences or whatever? Because I remember that (year ago) if you had UBuntu installed and tried to install WIndows, the boot thing would be messed up... (or something like that...)19:35

connyosisso...I'm running Ubuntu 11.04 (Since 10.10 and earlier wont work properly on this laptop) and after upgrading packages I get this weird problem where at boot the computer freezes and the screen slowly turns white and then slowly turns black.19:36
Tigerboyjoeoshawa that is nice. yes there are some nice add on sound cards out now.19:36
ThinkT510mikebot: installing windows after linux does overwrite the grub bootloader, but grub can be reinstalled19:36
Jordan_Ufnkyspccdt: I would recommend against using wubi.19:36
connyosishas my problem happened to anyone else? It's quite strange19:37
Tigerboyjoeoshawa sound system in board is: Realtek ALC88819:37
fnkyspccdtJordan_U, yeah i know, don't have the time/energy atm to partition with gparted atm19:37
mikebotThinkT510: OK, maybe you can help me with this... is it possible to clear my hdd, install ubuntu, and then install Win 7 after ubuntu to dual boot? Or is it always easier to install windows first?19:37
joeoshawadid you check your preferences and make sure the headset is not muted19:37
joeoshawaand alsa as well19:37
Tigerboyjoeoshawa yes I did and I made sure it was selected also19:37
ThinkT510mikebot: it is always best to install windows first, this is because windows assumes its the only thing being installed and always overwrites the boot loader19:38

mikebotThinkT510: But how do you install windows first?19:40
joeoshawaalsa has a seperate control for each jack and your front ports volume would be completely off by default19:40
erUSULjordan_: yes; long ago. maybe still works ;P19:40
mikebotThinkT510: Or, you don't install windows at all?19:40

jordan_mikebot, there should be screws on the underside of the laptop that will release the hdd19:43
joeoshawapulseaudio works off alsa so no volume in alsa no volume in pulse19:44
Tigerboyjoeoshawa it does state the chip realtek alc888 correctly19:44
mikebotjordan_: I know that I /can/ remove it, but in any event, I don't have tools to format it once it is out19:44
joeoshawaturn the volume up and you should be all set then19:44
mikebotThinkT510: So I can use the ubuntu usb to format my whole drive, then I can remove the usb, install windows, then install ubuntu?19:44
jordan_mikebot, your not tearing  a part the hdd, your just removing it, so no warranty should be voided, unless for some reason they stuck a "void if removed" sticker across it19:44
Tigerboyjoeoshawa ok good to know but on the "headphone" it will not go up19:44
jordan_mikebot , ah gotcha19:44
joeoshawayou can play with the settings to get it just right19:44

rethusi have shortly gnome installed, now xfce. but if i start xfce, during startup the desktop wallpaper still show for 3 seconds the old gnome wallpaper... and siwtch then to the actual paper.20:14
SUFLEXi mean Desktop Downloads and etc20:15
silverlightningactionparsnip, however, is white screen a fault in grub or lubuntu startup?20:15

palhmbsright great - so purge first then use force-downgrade, thanks!20:15
ActionParsnipsilverlightning: it sounds like a driver thing, do you use nvidia gpu?20:15
ChogyDan!purexfce | rethus (maybe this)20:15

Amithielguys, i know this is a highly debated conversation but.. ubuntu 32 vs 64 bits. how can i convince a friend that 64 is already stable and he will get much more advantages? any good reading? also, i got some doubts because i saw a benchmark on a site and in the results the 32 bits gets more perfomance. can't understand why...20:27
ActionParsnipAmithiel: the 64bit apps are as supported and stable as 32bit20:27
bullgardAmithiel: You cannot.20:27
Amithielright, but is it possible that 32 bits gets more performance than 64?20:28
bullgardAmithiel: Yes.20:28
Amithielsorry for my poor english20:28
ActionParsnipAmithiel: for desktop normal use, the advantages are isignificant, for 3d rendering and other data intensive activities will benefit20:28
BluesKajAmithiel, if yoyr friend has over 4G ram then he might some benefit from 64 bit totherwise it's negliglable20:28
=== roaming is now known as INFURNO
ActionParsnipAmithiel: *insignificant20:28
sogeking99hey guys on ubuntu 10.10 when i go into hibernate or close my laptop i get just a blank screen and must restart20:28
Amithielhum. i am 4 gb of ram. am i gaining some advantage?20:29
BluesKajer negligible20:29
anthony_drc, bullgard, ThinkT510 thanks very much for your help.  will look at xubuntu instead.  I want to grab files off it initially then look at doing a minimal install when backed up.  in your experience how does hardware support differ between ubuntu and xubuntu?  is there much of a difference?20:29
BluesKajAmithiel, perhaps20:29
ActionParsnipAmithiel: you can use pae with 32bit and get access to up to 64Gb but each process can only access 3.2Gb RAM20:29
jordan_Ubottu, i went to the site how do i install the lm_sensor20:29
ubottuError: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :)20:29
palhmbsmaco, right - so I can use apt-get to download just the package - but not install it with apt, then run dpkg -i --force-downgrade sun-java-jdk_blah_.deb?20:30
bullgardanthony_: Not much difference, but a small diffference.20:30
Amithieloh...now i understand20:30
ThinkT510anthony_: exactly the same support, just different desktop environment, i prefer xfce myself20:30
jordan_really?20:30
jordan_hmm, i thought that was a reg person20:30
jordan_that sux20:30
macopalhmbs: yeah20:30
palhmbsmaco,  sorry for picking on you - thanks, you've been a great help!20:30
drcanthony_: ifxubuntu is still not working well (although the specs say 192 meg RAM), I'd look at lubuntu20:30
silverlightningthis is what I get running; sudo lspci, the whole sudo lspci | grep vga doesn't give anything http://pastebin.com/S2LKZE3p20:31
ActionParsnipAmithiel: if you have more than 4Gb RAM then I'd always go 64Bit, at 4Gb you are in the middle so you need to analyse what your system is for and make the choice based on that20:31
jordan_currently i installed 4 gb ram and ran the 64bit20:31
ActionParsnipAmithiel: the 64bit OS will mean you can upgrade RAM easier as the RAM is seen as one lump20:31
Amithieli'm desktop normal user. not video editing or something. but i have 64bit version20:31
jordan_i figured i got 64 bit hardware, why not run it to its potential20:32
raidohx420:32
raidooops, wrong keyboard20:32
ActionParsnipAmithiel: then there is no noticable speed difference betwen the 32bit and 64bit OS for you but your RAM will be seen as 4Gb rather than 3.2Gb and then the extra bit used by PAE20:33

bc81Slart: you could try -c (skip based on checksum, i imagine...though, i'm not really an rsync guru)22:48
konaya__ilessthan3ubuntu, I know :) seriously, though. I kinda prefer when it is text-only. Graphics when your video mode isn't the native resolution for your screen looks terrible.22:48

ilessthan3ubuntui couldve sworn i used grub with graphic icons22:49
konaya__ilessthan3ubuntu, I don't buy graphic icons, but graphic backgrounds I recall seeing. Looks terrible IMO :)22:50
Slartbc81: mm.. I've been eyeing that switch aswell.. but I was kind of expecting rsync to do the size/mod-time comparison by default (since there is a special switch to start using checksums).. but perhaps I'm expecting to much from little rsync.. anyways.. thanks for your time, I'll try the checksumming and see if it does what I want22:50
ilessthan3ubuntukonaya__, on that topic dmesg says i have intel /nvidia cards in this laptop, how do i determine which is in use?22:50
ilessthan3ubuntulsmod or22:50
bc81Slart: there's always grsync, it might be a little easier to deal with22:51
konaya__ilessthan3ubuntu, do you have two graphics adapters in your laptop then? Spec wise?22:51
blundakatWhen I run "additional Drivers" in lubuntu Nothing appears in the list, does this mean the proprietary drivers are not compatible with my graphics card? typing lspci shows my Graphics card to be Radeon IGP 330M/340M/350M22:51

I'm not preserving the modification timestamp when copying files so the files in the DEST-dir have a different timestamp.. that means rsync thinks they are different from the the source and needs to be copied again.. there is a switch --size-only that basically tells rsync to just look at file sizes and not timestamps.. it's working now22:57
