[00:00] Alexander you can get jasper from the software center inside your "start menu" thingy [00:00] MarkB: well, different models use different chips in the camera, so it varies. Some will work without any effort, some need a little work [00:00] <[TK]D-Fender> shawnboy: yup === maelstrom is now known as Guest56895 [00:00] ActionParship [00:00] MarkB: All newer Logitech cams are using the UVC driver and are compatible. [00:00] After I install Cheese, where will it be? [00:00] Minimec: Where can I get Drivers then? I have c310, is that compatible? [00:00] [TK]D-Fender: have you taken it for a spin? [00:01] Alexander_: Applications > Ubuntu Software Center, search for Jasper, it's called "The JasPer JPEG-2000 runtime library" [00:01] MarkB: Newer cams should be plug&play. Otherwise see http://www.quickcamteam.net/ [00:02] shawnboy: its fine here, its also default in natty [00:02] hey guys,what is the limit of RAM that detects xubuntu? [00:02] im going AFK... private message me for jasper help [00:02] crimsonmane [00:02] I found it, [00:02] My Kubuntu 10.10 system fails to boot on newer kernel versions - 2.6.35-24 works, but -25 and -27 fail - it just hangs on a plain blue screen when Xorg should start. Had a look in Xorg's logs and all I could find that looks relevant is "[ 13.197] (WW) Open ACPI failed (/var/run/acpid.socket) (No such file or directory)". Any ideas? [00:02] Alexander_: under the application menu someplace [00:02] okay. [00:02] <[TK]D-Fender> shawnboy: Minimally on Windows only so far... [00:02] Minimec: What driver do I need to get for my c310 to work on Emesene? [00:03] Because, it will not work for some reason; but I go to Preferences and it works there. [00:03] MarkB: run: lsusb and use the 8 character hex id to find guides [00:03] [TK]D-Fender: sorta stable? === guru is now known as Guest22117 === Guest73235 is now known as FiReSTaRT [00:03] [TK]D-Fender: I may give it a whirl. at least a test run. === Guest22117 is now known as guru2_ [00:03] hello [00:03] <[TK]D-Fender> shawnboy: From what little I've seen, no issues, and so far no bad press... all gold so far [00:03] Action: I put lsusb into run, and nothing happened? [00:04] MarkB: did it not output some text? [00:04] Action: No sir, it didn't. [00:04] who know what is the limit of RAM that detects Xubuntu? [00:05] valadares: 32bit or 64bit? [00:05] i'd say that xubuntu would detact all that your bios would, if you use 64 [00:05] [TK]D-Fender: thanks. for the moment, I'll chalk the envelope thing up to "one of those things". Appreciate your suggestions. [00:05] MarkB: So it is tather an Emsnse problem... Install guvcview once and start it. If it works your cam is 100% uvc compatible. It looks like the c310 is an update of the c300 webcam. http://answerpot.com/showthread.php?814602-Support+for+the+Logitech+C310+USB+HD+Webcam [00:05] 32bits [00:06] ActionParsnip:i use xubuntu 32 bits [00:06] valadares: 32bit can use 3.2Gb, 3.2Gb can use 64Gb (but each process can only use 3.2Gb), 64Bit can use 16 exabytes technically [00:06] <[TK]D-Fender> shawnboy: Idea : Feed the envelope and "cheat" the alignment to get the same ends [00:06] 3.2Gb == 32bit PAE, sorry [00:06] Minimec: Thank you, I will look at this. Do I get guvcview by entering in Terminal? [00:06] hi. i did install ubuntu (gnome) maverick. i use the recommend driver for me nvidia 9500. the problem is that all, especially flash, movies are jerking ... what can i do? before installing ubuntu 10.10 i did use kubuntu 10.04 with the same driver, and everything was fine?! [00:07] MarkB: sudo apt-get install guvcview [00:07] I know that, just wanted to know if you get from somewhere else. [00:07] Trashi: can you use http://pastie.org to give the output of: lsb_release -a; uname -a; dpkg -l | grep flash; dpkg -l | grep gnash; dpkg -l | grep swf thanks [00:07] hola [00:07] ActionParsnip: one moment [00:08] Alexander_: do you see yourself in cheese? [00:08] ActionParsnip: thank you much [00:09] ActionParsnip: http://pastie.org/1626781 [00:10] Trashi: sudo apt-get --purge remove browser-plugin-gnash gnash gnash-common swfdec-mozilla; sudo apt-get --purge autoremove; sudo apt-get update; sudo apt-get install flashplugin-nonfree [00:11] Trashi: you have too many plugins, the command will remove the plugins you have and then install the adobe plugin [00:11] alexander_ you there? [00:11] Hi everyone! I have a script listed to execute in my crontab but it does not appear to actually take effect. I know this because running the script manually has an effect on a log file. When I check that log file, it doesn't show an update! This is very easy to understand from my pastebin: http://pastebin.mozilla.org/1120219 [00:11] having an issue with xkb - have edited the rules and srvr_ctrl files to add back the vtsysreq option, but no joy, suspect ubuntu has disabled the xorg behavior of compiling them on start, how do i get it to runxkbcomp automatically? [00:11] ActionParsnip: ok i'll try that ... i did use your recommended flash package with kubuntu, but ubuntu suggested these packages .. thank you for your help [00:11] Okay, I installed guvcview it works there. [00:11] But it still doesn't work in Emesene. [00:12] welcome back Alexander_ [00:12] Thanks. [00:12] Hey ActionParsnip, I can see my face. [00:12] Trashi: no worries dude, i don't trrust those automatic things personally, I do what I know works [00:12] *sorry if this is a repost, I just identified with NickServ [00:12] Hi everyone! I have a script listed to execute in my crontab but it does not appear to actually take effect. I know this because running the script manually has an effect on a log file. When I check that log file, it doesn't show an update! This is very easy to understand from my pastebin: http://pastebin.mozilla.org/1120219 [00:12] But I can't make video calls with Pidgin. [00:13] What driver do I need to download for my c310 to work in Emesene? [00:13] Alexander_: thats because its not configured === cerpintaxt is now known as syrinx_ [00:13] ActionParsnip: next time i'll take a look for the right package and install immediately via terminal... just to save my time ;) [00:13] How do I configure it? [00:14] Alexander_: can you use http://pastie.org and give the output of: lsusb thanks [00:14] or at lest where the .xkm files are on jaunty [00:15] mycosys: jaunty is no longer supported === jamiep is now known as neonninja [00:15] i am aware of this [00:15] is a simple question tho [00:15] mycosys: then why ask if its not supported? [00:16] If I wanted to, could I buy another hdd and just hook it up to my computer for raid, to make things faster? Or how does it work? [00:16] because it is a simple question that somebody could well know off the top of their head [00:16] hello [00:17] ActionParsnip: and Alexander_ please keep me updated with the video calls in pidgin. i also dont know how to configure the cam in pidgin. doesnt seem to be an option. i'm afk dinner and baby. [00:17] is only a few months out of support [00:17] mycosys: doesnt matter, dead is dead [00:17] anyone have a problem with drop down menus being crooked and slanted when installing gnome on kubuntu? [00:17] MarkB: please use my nick if you are talking to me. I installed emesene and also see my Logitech Webcam sphere in the preferences. Now I cannot tell, if it works for video calls. [00:18] myradlife are you trying to run every minute? I don't think you need the */1. Have you tried just 1 ? [00:19] Minimec: I was talking in-general to everyone. But don't I need drivers to get it working? Or does friend need Emesene too for it to work, she has Msn for Windows. [00:19] anyone have a problem with drop down menus being crooked and slanted when installing gnome on kubuntu? [00:20] greetings [00:20] ActionParsnip [00:20] hallo! when i try to browse my smartphone via bluetooth, the smartphone asks me for a password. which pass should i type??? [00:20] Can I send you a scrennie? [00:20] whenever I reboot, iwconfig reports the essid as something totally weird, eg. ESSID:"g\xC6isQ\xFFJ\xEC)\xCD\xBA\xAB\xF2\xFB\xE3F|\xC2T\xF8\x1B\xE8\xE7\x8DvZ.c3\x9F\xC9\x9A" [00:21] Alexander_: just copy the text and use pastebin, no need for a full screenie, We only need the text [00:21] yeah that looks weird. [00:21] MarkB: Your cam is recognized by ubuntu as uvc cam. You can use it with skype, and other software. I don't now if emesene is able to interact 100% with the uvc driver, but you won't find a better driver for your cam in linux. UVC is the best. [00:22] this is what I have in /etc/network/interfaces http://pastebin.com/LHkKTqkc [00:22] So, my only bet is to get Skype? [00:22] I've tried the ESSID with and without quotes [00:22] no dice [00:23] ActionParnship, http://icanhasimage.com/images/meze29zr5303p75jptp.png [00:23] MarkB: My Logitech cam is working in the 'emesene preferences', connected to my hotmail account, but I never tried emesene before. [00:23] Sorry, I couldn't go on pastebin for some reason. [00:23] I have a 2TB drive Western digital that I cant mount [00:23] it is formatted as NTFS [00:23] I can see it in /dev/sda [00:23] slt28800642, Yes, I'm trying to run every minute not because I must, but it's easier to debug when I'm impatient to wait 30 min intervals [00:24] and it even shows the correct partitions and how much data is on it [00:25] Are there any alternate programs to Pidgin? [00:25] For MSN? [00:25] Alexander_: what protocol do you use? [00:25] fuzion24 - was it properly unmounted on the last system you used it on? [00:25] Alexander_: amsn [00:25] amsn? [00:26] Alexander_: but your camera won't work in amsn either, as you haven't configured it [00:27] mycosys, possibly, but I don't think so [00:27] you would need to force it on this system then, not a good idea [00:27] How do I configure it? [00:27] slt28800642, I've tried with */30 and I have the same issue [00:28] is there some issue with ubuntu and ntfs partitions over a certain size [00:28] put it back in the last system u used it in and use 'safely remove hardware' if it was windows [00:28] Alexander_: if you give the output of; lsusb we can advise [00:28] It is an internal drive [00:28] fuzion24: what happens when you attempt to mount it? [00:28] slt28800642, what do you think is the problem with ipUpdate.pl not correctly executing in crontab? [00:28] ActionParsnip [00:28] look at this screenie [00:28] http://icanhasimage.com/images/meze29zr5303p75jptp.png [00:29] hello, what do i do, i'm brand new?

If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) [00:29] BillyBob: do whatever you want to do! Enjoy your ubuntu [00:29] /dev/sda1 on / type fuseblk (rw,nosuid,nodev,allow_other,blksize=4096) [00:29] all right, anyone know about LTSP? [00:29] Alexander_: ok its a suyin chip and it's ID is 064e:c116 if you'd use a pastebin like I SAID, you can copy and paste it much easier [00:30] sudo mount /dev/sda1 /media/Green [00:30] Mount is denied because the NTFS volume is already exclusively opened. [00:30] The volume may be already mounted, or another software may use it which [00:30] could be identified for example by the help of the 'fuser' command. [00:30] fuzion24: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation. [00:30] Alexander_: so now you can use that ID and find guides [00:30] sorry [00:30] it says its mounted to / [00:30] myradlife: put * * * * * with full /path/script in crontab [00:30] but so is sdb1 [00:31] exutux, I'll try the full path [00:31] myradlife, if that works, try 30 * * * * ipUpdate.pl , doh yea, and full path. [00:31] jrib, any ideas? [00:31] fuzion24 - try ls /dev/disk/by-path [00:31] mycosys, what do you mean /by-path? [00:31] looking for current HOWTO for installing Linksys WMP54G wireless card in Ubuntu 10.04 Lucid, have searched and can find nothing current... [00:31] shows all drives and their mount points [00:31] oh thats an actual directory [00:31] what should I do with that [00:32] or what is that [00:32] any ideas on why iwconfig is reporting that weird SSID? [00:32] ActionParsnip [00:32] What ID? [00:32] 'ls /dev/disk/by-path' - run it fuzion24 [00:33] fuzion24: well... is it already mounted? [00:33] http://paste.ubuntu.com/574743/ [00:33] it says it is [00:33] Alexander_: identifier, its a common work,like a fake ID, or "Can I see your ID please" [00:33] but it says sdb1 is mounted to the same point [00:33] Alexander_: the ID is: 064e:c116 [00:33] so what do I do with that code? [00:34] exutux, slt28800642 , I made that change and I'll see if it takes effect consistently over time. Thank you [00:34] Alexander_: use it to find guides [00:34] fuzion24: so unmount it and mount it where you want [00:34] SO do I google it? [00:34] it wont let me unmount [00:35] fuzion24: is your pwd in the mount point [00:35] How do I set kernel options with the new live cds? === zz_PhilMather is now known as PhilMather [00:35] umount: /: device is busy.

[00:37] no idea [00:37] fuzion24: do you use raid? [00:37] no [00:37] fuzion24: is this a standard install? or wubi? [00:37] standard [00:37] fuzion24: when you first boot, is sda1 mounted to /+ [00:37] want me to reboot and find out?

[00:58] yup [00:58] allblack_soulja: why? [00:58] cuz my sound card isnt working [00:58] allblack_soulja: that's not really related to ubuntu, just put the disc in, reboot your computer and make sure your bios is setup to boot from the cd first [00:58] use virtualbox if you wanna run windows, if thats what you're asking. [00:58] allblack_soulja: so why do you need a windows cd for that, when you are using ubuntu? [00:59] hello all [00:59] does anyone use the 'nzb' newsgroup client? I just installed it and i can't get it to connect, even though my credentials work in two other clients. [00:59] i need help please [00:59] Hezinho: best to just ask the channel your actual question (on a single line) [00:59] i did an it was but it still didnt boot right [00:59] allblack_soulja: why do you need your windows CD for a soundcard when you are using ubuntu, it makes no sense [01:00] my webcam flips the video in ubuntu, best course of action?

I can't find a comparison chart with desktop version. [01:00] i need windows for my cam [01:00] Anyone know where Fvwm finds its mini icons? or if EWMH tells it where they are? I can't find the icon that gnuplot uses [01:01] odeland: no, use the desktop edition. But how much ram do you have? [01:01] ActionParsnip: i dont understand? [01:01] thethinker : you can find out what kernel modules are in use on your system by typing 'lsmod' on a command line [01:01] Hezinho: most zony touchpads are made working with the boot option: i8024.nopnp [01:01] 514MB Ram [01:01] netbook addition just has a different look if i remember correctly [01:01] ActionParsnip: lol @ zony [01:01] thethinker: can you run: lsmod and use a pastebin to give the output [01:01] odeland: i would actually get lubuntu or xubuntu, its a common mistake to think unr is lighter in any way [01:01] nsd: ;) [01:01] Why would Rhythmbox only find 953 of my 7K songs? [01:01] ok, thanks guys [01:01] thethinker: ls (like ls for a directory) mod (modules)... there's also lspci and lsusb for listing what devices are on those busses [01:02] odeland: you should be fine with the desktop edition, though lubuntu and xubuntu are good choices if you find ubuntu sluggish (I run it fine on a similar system). You could also just try out different window managers once you install ubuntu [01:02] Hezinho: sorry: i8042.nopnp [01:02] aeon-lt: I've read reviews of more recent releases of xubuntu that say that it's comperable to Gnome (regular Ubuntu); LXDE (as used in lubuntu) would be faster and lighter, but not officially supported [01:02] jujubee : 6k of files in an odd format?

Also, you can go from LXDE to Gnome to Xfce to KDE any time you want with any version of Ubuntu [01:04] install windows [01:04] turno: no, all mp3 [01:04] allblack_soulja: then put the disc in, reboot, and setup your bios to boot from the cd. ##windows can help you more [01:04] ActionParsnip: never used deadbeef [01:04] guess I'll start with desktop edition and move from there if anything [01:04] ActionParsnip: what does that mean to me?

[01:05] whats the best way to install a very lightweight gui on ubuntu server? [01:05] Hi [01:05] jujubee : no idea then, sorry [01:05] gconf-editor and looking under /apps/gnome_settings_daemon/keybindings [01:05] odeland: All you have to do to try another desktop manager is install the package from Synaptic or on the command line. E.g., if you wanted to go from Gnome (used in Ubuntu) to KDE (used in Kubuntu), that's as simple as sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop [01:05] ActionParsnip: not available accoring to apt-get [01:05] i did this and changed the power parameters [01:05] I am using kubuntu, if that matters. [01:05] JuJuBee: its not in the default repos [01:05] from this link ie https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Hotkeys/Troubleshooting [01:06] nothing I hate more than booting a box that's been off for a month, and finding stuff has stopped working [01:06] and next it went to commandline mode after reboot [01:06] why would wireless keep re-associating? [01:06] does anyone use the client 'nzb' ? [01:06] thethinker: if you run: file /sys/class/video4linux/video0/vflip do you get file not found or is it a text file? [01:06] and as per instructions here https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Security/CPUFeatures [01:06] i enabled the BIOS [01:06] again it is going in command line [01:06] can i edit the alternate iso to install only those applications i use? [01:06] JuJuBee: sudo add-apt-repository ppa:alexey-smirnov/deadbeef; sudo apt-get update; sudo apt-get install deadbeef [01:07] ie regular ubuntu is not picked up, why and how to come around? [01:07] I'm running Ubuntu 10.10 Gnome, and I'm looking at a box talking about a Distribution Upgrade....next upgrade should be 11.04 in late April.... [01:07] visual1ce: I think you might be able to do that if you install in expert mode; otherwise, yes, you can edit the ISO [01:07] visual1ce: take a look at this: http://www.linuxjournal.com/article/10038 [01:08] Geoffrey2: the version number on Ubuntu 10.10 refers to the date it was released. so yes you should do that distro upgrade [01:08] thethinker: if the file exists then the task is very simple [01:08] what i'm supposed to do with this "i8042.nopnp" ? [01:08] I have a question [01:08] maco: in here?

If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) [01:09] anyone know a good place to start learning Csharp but writing and running in ubuntu? [01:09] Is there any software of ubuntu that can remove DRM from music tracks? [01:09] thanks nsd! [01:09] thanks - can you write me the full command that i need to add ? [01:09] nsd: aeon-ltd: jrib: thanks guys, be back later if I need help switching GUI :) [01:09] visual1ce: no problem [01:09] not found [01:09] Hezinho: gksudo gedit /etc/default/grub [01:09] thethinker: darn [01:09] odeland: np [01:10] thethinker: try: http://radu.cotescu.com/flipped-images-ubuntu-webcam/ [01:11] Hezinho: add it in the quotes with the quiet splash save the new file then run: sudo update-grub reboot to test [01:11] Hello? [01:11] Starting to code in Csharp but wanting to start on ubuntu Because i hate windows anyone have any tips [01:11] thank u - im trying it now [01:11] zombie_: Depends on where you live, whether that's legal or not. If you're in the USA, that would violate the DMCA. [01:11] crimsonmane, I'm already running 10.10, and have been since October.... [01:12] zombie_: In other words, it'd be illegal, sorry. [01:12] I need software like sound taxi [01:12] ie regular ubuntu is not picked up, why and how to come around? [01:12] Zombie what is it that you are looking for? [01:12] whitefinger: Isn't there mono for that? I think that's a linux C# implementation. [01:12] Geoffrey2: upgrading will not change your version from 10.10 to anything [01:12] if I buy music I have the right to remove the drm from it [01:13] zombie_: I don't believe that's how the law works; that's the reason for the DMCA. Removing DRM is illegal, afaik [01:13] Windows 7 and xp have sound taxi now I'm on Linux ubuntu 10.10 and I'm looking for a program like sound taxi [01:13] nsd: it is illegal [01:13] crimsonmane, ok, I just wanted to make sure that was an expected upgrade, and I someone wasn't picking up an Alpha of 11.04 somehow.... [01:13] whatever [01:13] ActionParsnip: yeah, though so [01:13] I'm outta here [01:13] lame [01:14] Geoffrey2: 11.04 would indicate it was released November 4th. see how that works? [01:14] crimsonmane: no, that would be 2011, April. [01:14] Pici: thanks lol [01:14] ActionParsnip: I seem to already have those [01:14] i have a beagleboard xm running ubuntu 10.10. Im trying to setup a touchscreen, which the touch works fine, but the monitor is just green. Any suggestions? [01:14] i was way off lol [01:14] hello [01:15] crimsonmane, I'm familiar with the numbering sequence, I've just never gotten a notice for an entire Distro upgrade between version releases...so wasn't sure what was happening... [01:15] login [01:15] I want to install ubuntu from a usb flash drive but gparted keeps failing and the installer fails, is there a workaround ? [01:15] thethinker: well you have an avenue of investigation now, see what you can dig up [01:15] GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="i8042.nopnp" - this is what it looks like - its okay ? [01:15] Geoffrey2: releases that are marked LTS you only have to upgrade from every third (?) release, when another LTS is released. LTS stands for long term support. The last LTS was 10.04, so since you have10.10, do the upgrade. [01:15] sec^nd: did you MD5 test the ISO you downloaded? [01:15] sec^nd: you'll need the Alternative Install disc [01:15] will someone help? [01:15] ActionParsnip: So, Google? [01:15] Hezinho: GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet splash i8042.nopnp" [01:16] sec^nd: If gparted fails, the installer can't continue. You might try partioning with another program (though I doubt that'd help) or another flash drive [01:16] thethinker: if thats the search engine you prefer, yes [01:16] ok [01:16] ActionParsnip: I checked the md5 [01:16] thethinker: you have a lot of ammo to throw in it, also use your lappy make and model too [01:16] nsd: doesn't work, seems to be a problem with the live system being on a flash drive [01:16] Does anyone knoe if it is inefficient to have a bash script run in the background constantly? [01:16] cd burner broken [01:16] sec^nd: at what point does the installer fail? [01:16] ammo? [01:16] There is but testing in ubuntu is seeming to be deficult becuase it is in .exe and wine will run it but close automaticly, even with a stop close oh .net [01:17] ActionParsnip: before partitioning [01:17] thethinker: ammunition, in the shape of information [01:17] sec^nd: have you tried updating ubiquity and gparted in the livecd [01:17] sec^nd: i had similar issues and was absolutely forced to use Alternate disc [01:17] alexanderbandukw: why don't you run it and find out? [01:17] ActionParsnip: no internet :/ === stephen is now known as Guest23492 [01:17] sec^nd: is the system a laptop? [01:17] crimsonmane: can I use the alternative disc from my usb ? [01:18] ActionParsnip: a computer with no internet (box) [01:18] Good evening. Evince. Anybody know what would cause a 3.5mb pdf to take over 2mins to load using 10.04 with 12GB RAM? [01:18] sec^nd: gah, could try the alternate cd as crimsonmane said [01:18] lastm: crap cpu and gpu? :) [01:18] Hey, I was wondering if anybody could tell me to a website where i can learn about unix? please and thanks! [01:18] sec^nd: only if you're using usb cd drive. also, its a usb stick, so you can update it from any computer, like the one you're using now. [01:18] thor: i didn't want to have to write it if it would [01:18] alexanderbandukw: Bash scripts aren't the fastest programs, so no, but that depends on what it's doing. If you're concerned it's eating up resources, just fire up system monitor and see how much of a load it's using [01:18] speeqs: the linux documentatioin project....tldp.org [01:19] crimsonmane: what ? [01:19] I can't get a cron job to run. I set the job up in crontab -e, but it never seems to run. There are no cron logs in /var/log. any advice? [01:19] how to get to ubuntu graphic one from command line as after reboot it takes me to commandline! [01:19] alexanderbandukw: What are you trying to accomplish with the script? [01:19] linux virgin seeks help installing wifi drivers? [01:19] aeon-ltd: Intel Xeon 3.00GHz -- eight of them. [01:19] javahorn try startx [01:19] javahorn: Try logging in and do sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart [01:19] Jgilk1: is it internal or USB based? [01:20] nsd: There is but testing in ubuntu is seeming to be deficult becuase it is in .exe and wine will run it but close automaticly, even with a stop close oh .net [01:20] internal [01:20] sec^nd: i'm sorry i didnt word that very well. you said you're installing via usb drive, and the other person suggested you update it. you said you can't because that computer has no internet. to which i suggest you bring that usb drive to a computer that has internet. [01:20] lastm: tried diff readers? [01:20] Jgilk1: is the system a laptop or branded pc? [01:20] aeon-ltd: No. Any suggestions?

[01:21] whitefinger: Hmmm... Well, I must confess I know hardly anything about C#. If what you're trying to run is an executable and you don't have the source, there isn't much you can do about it but try wine (which you have) [01:21] sec^nd: is it possible for you to borrow someone's cd drive just for this project?

I'm sure it wasn't created well, it is only 20 pages, but it is 3.5mb. [01:22] nsd: wine will run it but close right away even with a close program i install mono and run mono ( application.exe) and it runs its just weird lol [01:22] lastm: no idea, does the cpu spike? [01:23] whitefinger: So it works...? I can't really help, sorry [01:23] aeon-ltd: No. They're all under 50%. [01:23] Jgilk1: i'd use a wired connection and get full updates for a start [01:23] lastm: hdd activity? [01:23] Jgilk1: after a reboot, click system -> admin -> hardware drivers and it may be offered to you [01:23] pac1: nsd none of the option is working [01:24] i cant access internet through wired or wireless connection is the problem only way i have access through internet is on the windows 7 side [01:24] did you try the /etc/init.d/gdm restart suggested by nsd? [01:24] nsd: no problem thanks for the help You have any sugestions on a nice langauge to use in ubuntu that can have graphical interface. [01:24] nsd: constantly check to see if pictures are in my download folder and if so move them to pictures [01:24] Jgilk1: if no, run: sudo lshw -C network and you will be shown the chip, you can use it to find guides [01:24] javahorn, what happens when you do /etc/init.d/gdm restart [01:24] aeon-ltd: Nothing. The Network History shows bumps to 2.0 MB/s, but that's about it. [01:25] hello, uhm im am writing from weechat, i cant get into gdm, im stuck at terminal level after boot :( [01:25] nsd: pac1: init had been replaced by upstart. use sudo service gdm restart :instead [01:25] Jgilk1: updates fix a lot, and you will have access to te web which will have drivers [01:25] alexanderbandukw: That shouldn't be too bad, just make it sleep between tests [01:25] lastm: are you have slow drive problem? [01:25] Jgilk1: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1687636 shows a PPA which will make it work [01:25] badstidrazor: Oh, right, although I could've sworn /etc/init.d/gdm restart still works though [01:25] bastidrazor, thanks I need to be reminded of that. [01:25] i have followed this perscribed step to try to install drivers and it gives me a line of code... should i post line of code here? [01:25] pac1: it says, about script you are trying to invoke has been converted to and upstartjob, you may also use restart(8) utility [01:26] aeon-ltd: Just tried xpdf and it loads without difficulty. === Guest23492 is now known as pv2depoty [01:26] javahorn, does sudo service gdm restart work? [01:26] whitefinger: No. Everything else loads just fine. [01:26] lastm: heh problem solved, assume it was a bug in your previous reader [01:26] pac1: no [01:26] whitefinger: Well, Java is pretty easy to pick up and you can do GUIs pretty easily [01:26] lastm: oh ok i just seen the last post about your drive thats all lol [01:26] yes [01:26] nsd: thanks [01:27] What's good [01:27] does anyone know how to pause the boot proses i have an error msg ? [01:27] thanks i will try that and let you know if i have further problems [01:27] Jgilk1: if you run: rfkill list are any of the entries listed as blocked? [01:27] hi there, please help wih upstart [01:27] whitefinger: You can also do GUIs in python fairly easily (methinks). Writing a gui app in C/C++ is of course gong to be harder [01:27] nsd: hm.. i like basic and i did not mind python but that was years and years and years ago [01:27] bastidrazor: no it is not working [01:27] alexanderbandukw: Any time. [01:27] i have a process that i start up with specified user, that spawns bash -l -c, that spawns another process [01:27] nsd pac1 bastidrazor wha it the workaournd? [01:27] with upstart [01:27] as a result, sudo stop blah doesn't work [01:27] aeon-ltd: xpdf will let me do what I need to get done tonight, but what are they doing differently? Is there anything that can be changed on evince to improve performance? [01:28] javahorn, no workarounds. did you install a server or a desktop ubuntu? [01:28] javahorn, when and what did you install? [01:28] whitefinger: Well, if Basic's your thing, I think there might be some implementations of that that use GUIS, not sure though [01:28] nsd: yeah python was my second languge but i did not like windows execution problems and i want something that i can use for ubuntu and windows base [01:28] lastm: i've had no recent experience with evince so i would not know [01:28] I tried reinstalling GDM but it did not work :( [01:28] pac1: desktop 10.10 [01:29] it was fine [01:29] javahorn, then what? [01:29] https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Hotkeys/Troubleshooting -- i did for powermanagement,changed values [01:29] whitefinger: Well if it's portability you want, Java is pretty good for that. the Netbeans IDE lets you design GUIs right in it, or you can write the GUIs entirely by hand. Take a look at the tutorials at http://download.oracle.com/javase/tutorial/ [01:29] pac1: then rebooted , it said about https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Security/CPUFeatures [01:30] i changed BIOS setttings in Advanced tab for Samsung, and since then it is taking me to commandline and not coming up for regular screen of ubuntu [01:31] javahorn: change the settings back?

I gtg, so if you have any other questions ask someone else ;) [01:33] i have an egalaxy touchscreen but the axis are inverted. How can i config? [01:33] nsd: thanks and will do talk to you another time lol === grim76^ is now known as Grim76 [01:34] Hi. How can I list all files in a directory and its subdirectories and show their full path? I tried [ls -F -R /media/USB | grep "\.avi"] and get all the files, but without their full path... just the filename. Any ideas?

[02:04] pac1: you mean Xwrapper.config [02:04] Ahh, manpage to the rescue - nevermind :) (no by default) [02:04] nope. xorg.conf [02:05] pac1: there is no such file [02:05] are the repos down? [02:06] witeshark: you closest mirror may be [02:06] *your [02:06] javahorn, that's the usual case. [02:06] pac1: ? [02:06] however if you have one, X will try to use it. [02:07] How do I overclock my intel atom to it's max speed of 4ghz in ubuntu? [02:07] rcmaehl: a 4ghz atom? [02:07] wut [02:07] wow [02:07] pac1: /etc/X11 -- here i donot see any .conf file other than wrapper [02:07] hmm [02:07] 4ghz 0.o [02:07] pac1: where we are heading ? to bucket? [02:07] Yes [02:07] specs for the intel atom: did you know that an Intel Atom CPU can be clocked to 4ghz from 1.6ghz? [02:07] javahorn... x11 doesnt come with a config file by default... [02:07] >< [02:08] darn copy fail [02:08] why? [02:08] rcmaehl: heh i doubt it could reach 3 without melting, or kernel panicking [02:08] specs for the intel atom: http://pastebin.com/0CFkZ5Rw [02:08] javahorn, there's xautoconfig package you could download. [02:08] testing [02:08] this is on a netbook... [02:08] pac1: miketomdool how to get regular ubuntu [02:08] when you do it, can you post pics :O [02:08] anybody knows how to wine war3? [02:08] pac1: you mean to say i am missing something? [02:09] rcmaehl: yes multipliers can do that, however cooling is the issue at hand [02:09] javahorn, not necessarily. I can't say for sure. Xconfig is a black art. [02:09] pac1: though i installed 10.10, only 3 days back , it was fine, save for this wretched powermanagement param [02:09] pac1: what is the way out? [02:09] but why abuse that little atom.. [02:10] hi i bought this simcard reader,and its swowing up as a generic multicard, do i have to mount this as i cannot access it? [02:10] pac1: even recovery mode does not take me to this, any other option there in recovery mode, i should select grub one? [02:10] b/c my netbook can;t handle what I need it to [02:10] javahorn, whatever you set is probably interfering with the X window system's attempt to generate a config on the fly. [02:10] so get some better hardware [02:10] rcmaehl: netbooks aren't supposed to do much anyways [02:11] javahorn, if you have options, try them and see where they lead. [02:11] you'll kill it [02:11] javahorn, best advice, reset that power option in the bios. [02:11] rcmaehl: there is no way it's a 4ghz processor [02:11] hello [02:11] pac1: i did , still it does not [02:11] javahorn, can you reset the whole bios to factory installed? [02:11] http://pastebin.com/Lh2F3hYF [02:11] javahorn, dang! [02:11] pac1: let me try that [02:12] got a question about grub legacy [02:12] pac1: what is that? [02:12] rcmaehl: even so 4ghz would be too much, i'd stop at 2.0ghz, with some secondary means of cooling [02:12] How would I be able to generate an xorg.conf? [02:12] Ben64: sudo Xorg -configure ; iirc [02:12] Ben64, not usually needed, but apt-get install xautoconfig [02:13] I need to point grub at my windows install on /dev/sda3, i am not ggetting the right syntax in menu.lst [02:13] also nvidia tools if your mobo is nvidia. [02:13] aeon-ltd: Oh I have cooling [02:13] rcmaehl: besides the stock fan? [02:13] pac1: that would put the automatically generated one as /etc/X11/xorg.conf ? [02:13] can anyone help me out with this sim card reader ive googled and getting nowhere? [02:13] aeon-ltd: watercooling(making a custom laptop case for my netbook [02:13] Ben64, I don't remember. maybe just output to current directory. [02:14] and you copy it in.

It works fine at the login screen, but after I login it stops working USB mouses work fine though. Any thoughts? [02:16] javahorn, at this point I'd be looking around for the install disk.

[02:57] it was also a test, i wanted to see how many people would go to 'close your synaptic' or whatever [02:57] yuskhanzab: no you're on the right path. i just know know the rest of the instructions [02:58] unless you want to compile the latest from source [02:58] up to you [02:58] hello all [02:58] Good morning. Anyone has experience with RAMFS? [02:59] well purge will clear all trace of vlc from your system [02:59] Still no sound.... [02:59] This is odd. [02:59] then it installs from scratch [02:59] it is odd [02:59] Yeah it's reinstalled, & nothing. [02:59] everything else has sound? [02:59] Yesterday sound... Today no sound. [02:59] Yeah. [02:59] Audacious is blaring out sound. [02:59] one sec [02:59] Firefox too. [02:59] Auriga: did you check vlc's audio settings...? [02:59] track, etc? [03:00] hello [03:00] Yup [03:00] Not that I changed them. [03:00] hi. is there any way i can save streaming radio/website ????? [03:00] Auriga: yea but some files have different settings for audio. [03:00] <[thor]> Auriga: when you open your sound control panel ( System > Preferences > Sound ), in the Applications tab, is VLC listed? [03:00] crimsonmane, have u try this webcam in ur system? [03:00] check tools preferences then audio [03:00] Abhijit: not something you can really get help with here. [03:01] make sure the settings are right [03:01] arrrghhh, why? [03:01] arrrghhh, they are free radios [03:01] Abhijit: so? doesn't mean you can freely save the songs. [03:01] Okay got it... [03:01] :-/ [03:01] Not sure how but the output for VLC changed. [03:02] Is it possible to X11forward via localhost? [03:02] thought it might [03:03] any help migrating putty to linux? [03:03] i got two audio cards at once and i have to choose the right one thats why i thought of it [03:03] It was the volume control options themselves, but I'm not getting how it changed... [03:03] Okay, well thanks anyways for the help. [03:03] glad to help [03:04] <[thor]> Abhijit: in the Software Center, look for KRadioRipper [03:04] [thor], ok [03:04] hi i have a some problem with shell script. I want to write a script to copy a file to somewhere esle. However i have two variable in the file name [03:04] Hello, all. I am running Ubuntu 10.10 on a Dell Inspiron 700m. It has a rather annoying quirk: whenever the AC adapter is unplugged, the laptop will always go to Standby. If the laptop is already in Standby or is Hibernating when I unplug the AC Adapter, it will go (back) into Standby once it resumes. Might anyone have an idea as to why it does this? [03:06] [thor], thanks i install kradioripper and kstreamripper too [03:06] I do know that it's not triggering the "Standby button pressed" reaction, as changing the action to Hibernate does not cause it to Hibernate on unplugging. [03:07] Strife1989: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-power-manager/+bug/481312 [03:07] Ubuntu bug 481312 in gnome-power "Laptop suspends when I connect/disconnect AC" [Medium,Fix released] [03:07] Strife1989: WORKAROUND: change lid-closed action to Blank Screen in Power Management properties.

The syslog shows nothing from the time period. The only user apps running at the time were chrome and thunderbird. CPU was pretty much pinned though.

[03:13] noobieTuesday: perhaps that would help? i.e. DISPLAY=":0.0" && export DISPLAY [03:13] joeoshawa: that's not really an option. it's not my server. [03:14] L-Strife89: Dave Kandz in that mailing list link has the same as you and says it works (maybe he means another work around though, you should check)... other than that, I'm not sure what else you can do [03:14] vtor: Right-click the panel, click Add to Panel, then add Main Menu. [03:14] i take it the server does not allow password login [03:14] l-strife89 - there is no pannel just a blank screen [03:14] how do I see how much wubi disk space i have left? [03:15] df -h [03:15] vtor: Literally blank? [03:15] yh [03:15] My Linksys Wireless USB 600 device likes to "stop functioning." It was necessarily installed via NDISwrapper. The time-out used to occur when going idle but i now notice it timed-out when not idle. In fact i was in here. Only a system reboot brings it back to life. After a time-out the computer thinks its still alive. Any thoughts are much appreciated. Private Messages accepted. Thanks. [03:15] i created a folder and can get to root etc but cant find terminal [03:15] vtor: Uh. [03:16] L-Strife89: *great* :p [03:16] psion: Thanks that seems to have helped, at least localhost forwarding seems to work properly. [03:16] on the note of displays: I need to vnc my pc hooked up to my tv and have it access the same :0.0, i.e. mirror the screen via vnc [03:16] vtor: to be honest you're probably better off doing a full clean reinstall rather than upgrading [03:16] arrrghhh, what about this http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=471485 [03:16] crimsonmane, get hardware that has proper linux support instead of relying on the windows driver [03:16] JdGordon|: Hey, I'm not an Ubuntu encyclopedia. :P [03:16] noobieTuesday: np [03:16] ah man took me about 5 hours to install 8/04 lol [03:17] psusi: not an option. i had this long before i had linux. and one pci slot has my sound card.

[03:17] im a noob im learning [03:17] lol [03:17] joeoshawa: ah. looks like i'll have to go back to windows to export, but no biggie. thanks! [03:17] vtor: did you install 8.04 recently or ages ago...? if the former... why? [03:17] psion, which is wubi? http://pastebin.com/gpu3Pe5d [03:17] crimsonmane, then you're out of luck [03:17] no problem sorry i have no idea what putty is sorry i couldn't be more help [03:17] vtor: I was assuming slow/old hardware as the cause of the length. [03:18] just installed today my friend gave me the cd coz my comp is a p3 and didnt think it would take 10.4 [03:18] psusi: for an issue that has been around for years, i would expect it to be fixed [03:18] vtor: 10.10 installs very quickly, especially due to the fact that it installs ubuntu whilst you dilly dally over entering details. the partitioner is easier to use too if that's what you're having problems with [03:18] xrdodrx: they all are... [03:18] yh slow hardware and slow human [03:18] crimsonmane, can't fix it because the windows driver is proprietary... only the manufacturer could fix it [03:18] ? [03:18] vtor: A P3 can run 10.10 if you be nice to it. [03:18] lol [03:18] how nice [03:18] :) [03:18] xrdodrx: / is the main directory, from there you have partitions for /dev, /var, and /host [03:19] In other words, just don't try to do too much at once. ;) [03:19] xrdodrx: /host is your OS's drive, / is the main drive. so you could say there's 11gb left [03:19] truer works never spoken L-Strife89 [03:19] words* [03:19] vtor: if you've got 512 megs of RAM or less, ubuntu 10.10 will run but i would recommend Lubuntu or linux mint lxde edition if you want to shave off some RAM. I run it on my mum's amd athlon XP with a gig of RAM (we're talking 2004?) and it's pretty quick [03:20] psion, yea but wubi is non resizable. My files are on /host; I want to know how much space ubuntu has [03:20] i think i will have to install from cd again . i have 10.4 on my lappy should i upgrade 2 10.10 on my lappy? [03:20] psion: Quick question. That seems to shoot X11 apps to display 0.0. How do I get to forward onto the connecting client computer? [03:20] syrinx_: :) [03:20] xrdodrx: like I said, / has 11gb [03:20] vtor: i'm still on 10.04 on my desktop. no reason to upgrade unless there's some killer feature you want [03:21] ok i will install 10.10 on pc and b nie to it its from about 2002 very old got it for free from freecycle [03:21] noobieTuesday: to be honest, I missed the preface of what you're trying to do. are you connecting to a server and wanting remote commands executed to bring up a gui on your end? [03:21] whats different from 10.04 2 10.10? [03:21] vtor: you should be fine, i have something similar running right now [03:21] psion: Yup. I want to connect from a remote computer and bring the gui onto my end. Currently I am using VNC, but it has trouble with mesa rendering. [03:21] You should wait a month for 11.04. [03:21] crimsonmane, it would seem from google that that device has major issues in all operating systems [03:21] 11.04 wtf [03:22] vtor: a few newer packages (compiz, kernels etc.), a newer theme and a new sound menu. Auriga's right, wait for 11.04 [03:22] not just linux [03:22] Vtor you are new to Linux? [03:22] i'd wait a few months for 11.04 [03:22] vtor: there's updates 6 months.

[03:22] psion, oh, thanks :D [03:22] noobieTuesday: there's a lot of guides online on the topic of "x11 forwarding", have you looked at that yet? tbh it's been a while since I've done it so I'd just be reading a guide then explaining it back to you lol [03:22] windows all my life then i had 2 pay so wanted free stuff [03:23] ubuntu is the bolloks [03:23] How do you convert an audio file thats .ogg to .mp3 on linux ubuntu 10.10?

[03:30] i want to use a remote as a mouse and keyboard shortcut [03:30] someone gave me a processor celeron d? [03:30] L-Strife89: sorry dude. :( i can only recommend more googling, perhaps others have figured it out. they DID seem to mention some patch going in for maverick, but obviously not. here's hoping for natty [03:30] www,newegg.com [03:31] A good place for parts. Without it I wouldn't have upgraded. [03:31] StevenX: shutdown [03:31] heslam, that will shutdown right away. [03:31] heslam: Previous googling didn't turn up much, but here's hopin'.

[03:32] I would use shutdown -P [03:32] L-Strife89: give a man a command and he'll shutdown for a day [03:32] heslam: Point taken [03:32] L-Strife89: direct him to a man page and you'll slightly annoy him, which is more satisfying [03:32] why exactly do I need to use visudo again? [03:32] :P [03:32] Mean you for what? [03:32] my computer's battery notification doesn't work, it keeps saying "estimating" without actually telling the remaing estimated time, how can I fix this? [03:33] like, I'm dealing with some automated system setup kind of stuff [03:33] Oh no I meant Vtor, he said he is broke, I was saying when he has money to go to Newegg... [03:33] and it's not pheasible to use visudo because that's interactive [03:33] if I manually change the sudoers file [03:33] ross, need specifics what laptop model [03:33] ross: Maybe run apt-get install acpi? [03:33] is there some command I must run before the changes take effect? [03:33] abstrakt: no. visudo just checks that the sudoers file is sane before writing it. [03:33] vtor: do you have any old grandparents you can mercilessly bleed dry? [03:33] let me try it [03:33] rww, ok great thanks [03:34] is there a list of applications that can be obtained via sudo apt-get, and are these also available through the software store thingy? if not, why must they be obtained in two different ways? [03:34] exit [03:34] so google native client uses java right?:-/ [03:34] crimsonmane: there's 15 different ways. [03:34] ok trying apt-get install acpi [03:34] Crimsonmane the "Software thingy" Are programs which are in the respitories. [03:34] crimsonmane: the software center is a front-end for apt. [03:35] not all programmes are in there. [03:35] haha nah they already gone and left me nada [03:35] crimsonmane: technically apt-get is a front-end for apt. [03:35] SOmeone correct me if wrong... [03:35] crimesonmane: software centre and synaptic are front ends for apt. synaptic might be more your thing if you're looking for something more technical [03:35] Auriga: please don't answer if you're not sure. [03:35] joeoshawa: my laptop is the pangolin performance by system76 [03:35] what can I change with bash to allow cursor movement within vi during edit mode ? [03:35] thanks for all the responses. my next question is why can't they be compiled under one umbrella for me to browse? why must i go to 15 different places? [03:36] because you voluntarily choose to use more than one place instead of just using apt-get? [03:36] one sec lemme see if i can google something i tend to have better success then most [03:36] (or aptitude, for bonus points) [03:36] Was answering as most of the time no one ever does lol. [03:36] joeoshawa: please, i just got this laptop 2 days ago [03:36] apt-get requires me to know ahead of schedule what it is i'm getting. i like to browse and find new things. [03:36] crimsonmane: you can go to any of those points and get the same info. they all pull from the same repo's. [03:37] what command can you use to see what files a certain process is accessing? [03:37] crimsonmane: so use synaptic or software center. [03:37] JyZyXEL: lsof [03:37] is there a realtime version of that? [03:37] crimsonmane: when whoever it was said "15 different ways", they meant 15 different ways you can view the same information [03:37] like iotop kinda thing [03:38] heslam: lol sorry that was me :/ [03:38] heslam: thanks for the clarity.

[05:08] yes [05:08] digirak, just install ubuntu over one of the screwed partitions and kubuntu over the other [05:08] you can install a win codec packe [05:08] Guess it doesn't matter [05:08] vish, thanks [05:08] i get these funky video color patterns and sound isn't running correctly [05:09] digirak, just reformat one of gthe partitions and install custom to it. you can have grub control from Ubuntu if you want afterwards. [05:09] only files that work well are super old .avi [05:09] digirak, the one you want to boot at the end of the timer install last [05:09] cyybborg: you can install a win codec pack [05:09] why does aucacious suck so much with audio cds on ubuntu? [05:10] it never wants to get the id3 [05:10] or kmplayer [05:10] or vlc player [05:10] they all works well with ubuntu [05:11] command line or synaptic? [05:11] i've got vlc [05:11] nit-wit: how do i paste the scrn shot [05:11] digirak, http://imagebin.org/index.php?page=add [05:12] digirak, name the useless partitions if they are not obvious [05:12] vlc had a bad performance on reall media files [05:13] i don't normally use real media files [05:13] but good working functionality w/ mp4 would be nice [05:13] http://imagebin.org/140860 [05:14] the Linux filesystem and sda8 are useless [05:14] hey when i move my windows around , and i do have wobbly windows active.. i have a ati5850 vid card.. i keep getting lines going across the window im moving .. only happends when i move [05:14] ?

[05:18] digirak: yes but not find any satisfactory answer. [05:19] digirak, those two partitions amount to about 5 gigs. You would have to shrink sda5 and you can remove a swap as well. [05:19] sanjeev_: also check with your disk analyser [05:19] digi_: how can i do this? [05:20] sanjeev_: Administration-disk analyser [05:20] nit-wit: this wont affect my sda5? [05:20] nit-wit: why shrink sda5? [05:20] but there is only disk utility not analyser? === Leman_Russ_ is now known as Leman_Russ [05:21] sanjeev_: yes disk utility [05:21] digirak, the space you offer as replaceable is not enough.

[05:22] digirak: use GParted [05:23] no [05:24] digirak_: no there is no cd rom in disk utility. [05:24] sanjeev_: then ur cdrom is not mapped at boot [05:24] digirak, boot a live Ubuntu cd open gparted right click both swaps and make sure they are unmounted. right click sda5 the resize and resize. Then build the new partitions in the space of the removed and opened space. [05:24] ok so how can i get it mapped at boot [05:25] nit-wit: i have a ubuntu already [05:25] nit-wit: resizing sda5 will make me lose data? [05:26] digirak_: ok so how can i get it mapped at boot [05:27] sanjeev_: i am sorry i dont know thart [05:27] ok so can you tell me where m i get further info regarding this problem?

[05:55] cache_surplus: no [05:55] is there any way to use two desktop environment at a time? [05:56] whats the diff to /dev/urandom vs /dev/zero when whipping the drive? [05:56] speed? [05:56] jiltdil: you could run one in a vm, or run one on a server and access it via ssh from the other [05:56] Jordan_U: google it [05:56] /dev/zero fills it with zeros. /dev/urandom fills it with vaguely random zeros and ones. [05:56] rww: ic, thanks [05:57] so not a real diff in what i want [05:57] i could use either, correct? [05:57] cyybborg: also, do you have the w64codecs?

[06:01] now colors are all crazy, sound is better [06:02] cache_surplus: Disk's don't present such details anymore.

All other flash sites like hulu play ok. [06:11] Anybody know how to make linux run faster on a ps3? [06:11] <_genuser_> syrinx_: something that started like few hours before. [06:11] thanks [06:12] _genuser_: make any recent changes to the system? [06:13] <_genuser_> syrinx_: just the update manager downloaded updates. [06:13] <_genuser_> on netbuntu. [06:13] I've running linux on my ps3 using bootOS and using the external hard drive for the linux OS files and its just almost too slow to use anybody know why the ps3 can't handle linux? Is it because of the very little ram ? [06:13] I've been [06:14] <_genuser_> flashplugin-installer version: 10.2.152.27ubuntu0.10.04.1 [06:14] _genuser_: probably has something to do with it [06:14] Hello [06:14] should i expect that the sha1 or md5 sums of an iso file immediately downloaded from the internet and the same file on disc should be the same? if burn the iso then i rip it back to iso, should i expect its sums to be the same as the initial md5 sha1 sums? [06:14] hey, my launcher/windows/pannels flash non stop after i tried to set emerald as the window decorator in compiz [06:14] my internet is still not working on my ubuntu [06:14] _genuser_: try another flash and see if its the same [06:14] how do i run disks on ubuntu [06:15] like my telstra internet disk [06:15] <_genuser_> syrinx_: however, all the flash sites, such as hulu play fine. Even youtube ads play fine. Just the videos themselves play bad. [06:15] <_genuser_> syrinx_: if you were to youtube something now, does it play correctly? [06:15] <_genuser_> syrinx_: if it does, then I'll have to use another plugin. [06:15] anybody now how to fix? already tried compiz --replace [06:15] I guess nobody knows about ps3 linux [06:15] jiltdil: you can use teamviewer [06:15] or I'm being ignored [06:16] FBANEXT, probably not the right place to ask [06:16] _genuser_: works fine. what browser you using? [06:16] Nobody used yellow dog back in the day? [06:16] FBANEXT: no sir [06:16] FBANEXT, whether or not they did people here usually don't support other platforms [06:16] <_genuser_> syrinx_: thanks. using ff 3.6.13 [06:16] I thought the ps3 was powerful I guess I was wrong it cant run linux any better then a 50 dollar pc [06:17] _genuser_: 3.6.14 works great for me [06:18] FBANEXT: with or without X? [06:18] im sure it would run good as a server [06:18] FBANEXT: actually, sony restricts hardware access in OtherOS. You are basically using 1/8 processing cores which the PS3 has available to it [06:18] I stopped using Ubuntu around Lucid, because I didn't like what it was becoming. Is there a place that I can see how much more things have changed? [06:18] <_genuser_> syrinx_: installing new updates. lol, updates to update updates. [06:18] FBANEXT linux doesn't run on the ps3 very well due to the limitations sony put in the hardware hypervisor [06:18] _genuser_: of course lol [06:18] you have half the system ram, no gpu access and only a very small part of the cell processor [06:19] Well, I forced linux to boot on 3.55 "not supported anymore for linux" oh well, I thought it would be fun to have a powerful pc but, I thought wrong trying to use the ps3.... [06:19] Does Ubuntu still use "Indicators"> [06:20] FBANEXT would have been better off getting a 360 and a el-cheapo pc [06:20] FBANEXT: if sony allowed full access to the hardware then it would be insanely fast, but sadly they crippled it to the point where it is pointless [06:21] Yeah I'm glad LG sued sony and won hahah [06:21] Wow, no one is using ubuntu right now, that they cant tell me if it has indicators? [06:21] very patient there, lifestream [06:21] lifestream: what do you mean, indicators? [06:21] and yes, it does.

[06:36] <_genuser_> rebooting. [06:36] trytohaxme: killall -9 X, but better use Alt+SysRQ+K [06:36] GOOGLEEARTH wont start in ubuntu [06:36] trytohaxme: I would find the process and kill the number [06:36] i understand i think - so if you type say blah in bash, bash looks for blah in default prog directories (/bin , /usr/bin) but if say ./blah it looks for the prog in the local directory [06:36] trytohaxme: SysRQ should be on the PrintScreen key [06:36] Problem with X11Forwarding.. I can run xclock but when i try gedit, i get 'X11 connection rejected because of wrong authentication.' [06:36] Thanks guys, I'm going to try your suggestions.

I have a laptop with an external monitor. How can I set the external monitor to be primary?

[08:13] hopefully chipzzz can help you better then i could sorry i couldn't figure it out [08:14] I need some help in installing a font from shell on my ubuntu server. On my local working machine, I just installed the font with the standard-gui-based-tool ubuntu offers. Everything worked fine, Imagemagick found the font and I was able to use it with it. But now I need to install it from shell, so I put it into /root/.fonts both the otf and a version where I converted the otf with fontforge to ttf. Then I ran fc-cache -fv and it said the font wou [08:14] ld be installed, but Imagemagick doesn't get it. Next trouble is: since I installed a new version of imagemagick, convert -list font doesn't show the table of fonts I'm used to see [08:14] NEIZ:: Sorry, I didn't see that you said anything... I did sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade and that made it update thanks [08:14] jrn: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.

[08:17] my client splitted the message into two === aredhelrim is now known as butterfly_sevil [08:18] anyone can brief me a bit about LVM [08:19] Do linux users need a/v's & f/w's? [08:19] jrn, your message came through [08:19] i have run "update-rc.d snmpd defaults" on ubuntu desktop,but snmpd is not starting automaticaly afrere reboot , what should i do [08:19] a/v's ? f/w's?

[08:20] no for anti virus and firewalls come with but are only needed if you have programs listening to ports [08:20] a/v not at all unless you're transferring to windows [08:21] there are linux virus programs to scan files for transfer to a windows system [08:21] antivirus programs sorry [08:22] !antivirus [08:22] Antivirus is something you don't need on !Linux, except where files are then passed to windows computers (perhaps using samba), See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Antivirus [08:22] what step did I miss? [08:23] viruses generally have no effect in linux except in wine and even then only major if your running wine as root which you should never do [08:23] when fc-cache returns "succeded" and "fonts scanned and installed", the font should be available, eh? [08:23] I was kinda wondering about that whole virus thing, I think its possible to get a windows virus on linux like a flash drive or external hard drive. Then that windows virus you got on linux and transfer off those drive once plugged into a windows system? [08:23] That'd be fun, joeoshawa, heh. :P [08:23] FBANEXT, if you start anything from the flash drive in Wine, then maybe. [08:23] I think we still need to have a scanner for windows virus code because that shit worries me [08:23] there is only one system that is secure:- system that is shut down and kept in bunkers ---- === apocalypse is now known as Guest63317 [08:24] hi, how can i make force check for quota [08:25] a virus would have to interact with linux to get transfered onto the drive unless you copied it there which is what the linux anti-virus is for [08:25] I mean dude, I've done that with the ps3 Browser man, I got some virus saved on there from my ps3 browser and it was named adobe flash or some shit and I gave the virus to a friend not...

[08:26] FBANEXT: not completely, the virus can't put itself on the flash drive [08:26] Secrets: Save to a flash drive or something, you mean?

[08:51] kasad: you can get a 2 terabyte drive these days for <$100... It might be worth thinking about... afaik LVM won't span drives & the alternatives sound messy [08:51] Tricksy: java runtimes? [08:51] jrib: yes [08:51] hum...I just hooked a Zotac ID11 to my TV with HDMI and installed 10.10 on it, picture works perfectly, but I am not getting any sound at all [08:51] jrn: i want to install jruby, but it tells me i need java installed first [08:51] tricksy: find openjdk-jre in synaptic package manager [08:52] kasad, yes you can [08:52] ^openjdk-6-jre [08:52] raid [08:52] Hi Scuttle [08:52] tricksy: sudo apt-get install openjdk-6-jdk [08:52] Chipzzz: that would mean a lot more work, i don't have physical access to machine anymore [08:52] Chipzzz: kasad: Yes LVMs can span multiple drives. Here is a webpage in the Ubuntu help pages that says how. https://help.ubuntu.com/10.04/serverguide/C/advanced-installation.html [08:52] There much to pick from [08:53] there aint much to pick from [08:53] tricksy: or sudo apt-get install openjdk-6-jre/jdk [08:53] Cryptanalyst: good find! thanks [08:53] Scuttle: rhythm box no sound? [08:53] joeoshawa: i can't setup a raid now, because when they gave me server to set it up, they gave it to me with only one drive [08:53] RAID is a method of using multiple hard drives to act as one. There are two purposes of RAID: [08:53] * Expand drive capacity: RAID 0. If you have 2 x 500 GB HDD then total space become 1 TB [08:53] * Prevent data loss in case of drive failure: RAID 1, RAID 5, and RAID 6. You can combine RAID 0 to other RAID, e.g RAID 0 + 1 become RAID 10. [08:53] screenlets kinda blow dockey [08:53] ahh [08:53] ruan: which one, jre or jdk? [08:53] but you have two drives now right [08:53] joeoshawa: only when i completed server setup and traveled 40 miles to set it up at their offices, their IT appeared and gave me the second drive .... ( >_>) [08:54] tricksy: you can try both, jdk first, as it is developers kit [08:54] is there an app that will let me make a live ISO of my install ? [08:54] ruan: so jdk wil include jre? [08:54] joeoshawa: yes, so, when he pulled out the drive, i just opened the case and plugged it in, didn't even format it [08:54] like in Mandriva ? [08:54] that was nice of them lol they like doing things like that [08:54] guyschaos_: no sound anywhere [08:54] i want to install software that needs libavutil.so.49. how to obtain this file? [08:54] kasad: Chipzzz: the part you want starts about 2 thirds the way down the page. https://help.ubuntu.com/10.04/serverguide/C/advanced-installation.html [08:54] tricksy: possibly, jre is runtime and jdk is developers kit [08:55] Cryptanalyst: reading about it now [08:55] well here's the page i found https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/SoftwareRAID [08:55] maybe it will help [08:55] is gt210 better than a 9400gt? [08:56] joeoshawa: will check that out, tho i should mention that this is 8.04 LTS [08:57] lol the page probably is too [08:57] how can I add a new menu entry in applications (I need a shortcut to rdesktop) [08:57] most of them are ancient [08:57] why does huge disk i/o make the system so unresponsive? [08:58] ahh, Terminal Server client.. [08:59] is there any app that will let me make a Live ISO of my install ? [08:59] anybody ? [09:00] rileyp, apparently the 210 is slightly slower probably not noticeably [09:00] almost the same card the 9400 has twice the stream processors and more ram [09:01] but thats all from google searching [09:02] if i am going to get a card it has to be like 250 bucks just to be worth it [09:02] is gt210 better than a 9400gt? [09:02] just cause of why i need it [09:02] no [09:03] almost the same [09:03] anybody have an anser ? [09:03] i just want a card that can do vidpau [09:03] thats vdpau [09:03] smiley7, yes you can probably find it on google [09:04] its not in the repo ? [09:04] joeoshawa, sorry dint see your replies thnask [09:04] i thought about it once as a backup but never got the ambition [09:04] no problem [09:04] where can I download the alternate ubuntu 10.10 for intel 64bit? [09:05] mman, www.ubuntu.com [09:05] so I can get gt210 for $35 new or a 9400gt for $20 pp what should i go for [09:05] 9400gt [09:05] what is vdpau? [09:05] rileyp: also, this is wrong place to ask that I suppose [09:06] joeoshawa, I know, but where exactly, im looking for it but not sure if I download the amd64 is ok if I install it on intel 64 bit processor [09:06] apparently it has a gig of ram and twice the stream processors [09:06] the 9400gt is s/h but Im not scared good seller [09:06] mman: http://www.ubuntu.com/desktop/get-ubuntu/alternative-download [09:06] mman: the amd64 works on ams as well as intel [09:06] Tm_T, I knows soz [09:06] Cryptanalyst, sweet thanks! [09:06] oh well [09:07] i wish i could make a live ISO [09:07] smiley7: what's stopping you from downloading one? [09:07] mman, www.ubuntu.com then download then alternatice downloads under additional options [09:07] http://www.gpureview.com/show_cards.php?card1=621&card2=578 [09:08] is any old experienced ubuntu guy in here? i need help for installing libraries. and NEVER know which version to use.. [09:08] looking at finer details [09:08] is there one for ubuntu ? [09:08] smiley7: try this website http://www.ubuntugeek.com/creating-custom-ubuntu-live-cd-with-remastersys.html [09:08] joeoshawa, thanks, just downloading it. My question was if it was ok to install amd64 on an intel processor, but just got answer I can :D [09:08] Ok [09:08] ok cool [09:09] im on i386 with a amd processor [09:11] you can put linux on anything [09:12] if your determined enough [09:12] hey [09:12] ??? [09:12] anyone [09:12] help [09:13] my swap is gone! [09:13] Swap: 0k total, 0k used, 0k free, 1074040k cached [09:13] is this a known issue? [09:13] how can I recover it [09:13] !enter | wangxile [09:13] wangxile: Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation! [09:13] Ubuntu 10.04.2 LTS [09:13] I have five wine On a Thunder and then displays the download directory is c disk dowload, but how can I put the paper out under ah? [09:14] jatt: pastebin the output of sudo fdisk -l [09:14] jatt, sudo swapon -a [09:14] is this a known issue? no [09:14] jatt: or do swapon and see if it's back first [09:15] thanks!! i try it now [09:15] wangxile, i really don't understand what you are trying to say [09:16] lol. [09:16] i am a cn [09:16] ruan: here the output of sudo fdisk -l: http://pastebin.com/yPRDCuqW [09:16] !cn [09:16] For Ubuntu help in Chinese 您可以访问中文频道：打字 /join #ubuntu-cn 或者 打字 /join #ubuntu-tw 或者 打字 /join #ubuntu-hk [09:16] on my /etc/fstab I do have: [09:16] UUID=748af6cb-3f0d-4a40-b9b4-7b829a5cf4c5 none swap sw 0 0 [09:16] maybe the UUID is not mapping to /dev/sda5 ? [09:17] jatt:looks like it [09:17] hmm [09:17] jatt, does the UUID match with output of "sudo blkid -g ; blkid" [09:17] I did swapon and I get: [09:17] swapon: cannot find the device for UUID=748af6cb-3f0d-4a40-b9b4-7b829a5cf4c5 [09:18] rumpe1: with blkid I am getting: http://pastebin.com/SAc1D9nL [09:18] /dev/sda5 is not in the output of that command [09:18] how is this possible? [09:19] jatt: /dev/sdb5 none swap sw 0 0 [09:19] Anybody have any idea whats wrong with my computer? When every I click wine my computer boots me to the login screen [09:19] ruan: right will try that. those UUIDs are a pain in the neck :) [09:19] jatt: do swapon after changing it to that [09:20] My first time using Ubuntu today [09:20] I am very impressed. [09:21] It's clean and smooth. [09:21] *it's so [09:21] hi [09:21] swapon: /dev/sda5: read swap header failed: Invalid argument [09:21] u'mm sorry but I asked a question [09:21] Gwibber or Pidgin? [09:21] hm [09:22] jatt: did you do "sudo swapon -a" [09:22] yes swapon is answering that read swap header failed [09:22] Wine won't open correctly it just boots me to the login screen whenever I click WINE I get kicked to the login screen then have to relogin [09:23] please [09:23] jatt, use gparted to check the swap-partition or delete/rebuild it [09:23] jatt: you might want to recreate the swap partition [09:23] maybe is this: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/util-linux/+bug/569031 [09:23] Ubuntu bug 569031 in util-linux (Ubuntu) "swapon read swap header failed" [Low,Fix released] [09:23] fix released, it's not a bug anymore [09:24] My machine crashed after I installed openjdk, then it asked me to dpkg --configure -a. Every time I do this, it crashed again, how do I deal with this issue? [09:24] Why am I always ignored when I have a real problem wtf ! [09:24] ok will recreate the partition with mkswap [09:24] FBANEXT: you can try reinstalling it or installing an older version [09:24] FBANEXT, be patient [09:25] No that doesn't work done tryed it [09:25] tried [09:25] zsnes, wine, gmameui all do this shit [09:25] its pissin me off [09:25] !language [09:25] Please watch your language and topic to help keep this channel family-friendly, polite, and professional. [09:25] FBANEXT, check Xorg.0.log [09:26] ok, that worked, thanks ruan [09:26] Swap: 2104476k total, 0k used, 2104476k free, 1155468k cached [09:26] It doesn't say anything in the old X log [09:26] jatt: ok, good :) [09:26] hopefully it starts being used, I was getting random freezes [09:26] I just need to update to the newest X [09:26] Its the only way [09:26] Anybody know how? [09:27] jatt: was it recreated as /dev/sdb5? [09:27] i just installed the newest imagemagick version by downloading the source, extracting it, ./configure, make, make install, but convert -version still brings the old version, what have I missed to do? [09:27] sda* [09:28] so......Do you liek...Mudkips? [09:28] !ot | HyperHoRse [09:28] HyperHoRse: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, for all Ubuntu-related support questions. Please use #ubuntu-offtopic for other topics (though our !guidelines apply there too). Thanks! [09:28] FBANEXT, if you really think, this would solve your problems, i don't wonder any longer, how you got into this trouble [09:28] ruan: the right partition is /dev/sda5, but it is not shown in df -a [09:29] I thought it should appear there? [09:29] jatt: is it shown in fdisk -l? [09:29] yes: [09:29] /dev/sda5 16512 16773 2104483+ 82 Linux swap / Solaris [09:29] anyone experience in compiling programs under linux? [09:29] and in the top command as shown above [09:29] rumpel:: What are you talking about? [09:30] FBANEXT, stick to the version of the package-manager and solve your problem in a different way [09:31] I checked in other machine and it doesn't appear in df -a and is using swap [09:31] so everything is good I guess [09:31] How the log doesn't show any errors and I dunno how to fix this issue [09:31] Anybody feel like helping me with a completely newbie question ? [09:31] jatt: as long as one command shows the swap [09:31] !ask [09:31] 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. :-) [09:31] FBANEXT, how have you installed wine exactly? [09:31] expirement: what is the question? [09:31] sudo apt-get install wine [09:33] I was wondering if the i386 version of ubuntu 10.10 automatically supports intel quad core Q6600. I am confused because the only other package is an AMDx64 package. If i want to use all 4 cores of my processor, which version of ubuntu should i download? [09:33] FBANEXT: locate a .exe you are trying to run in wine and 'wine .exe' and see the output.. might help troubleshoot your problem [09:33] neiz, he won't see output, if it crashes his X [09:33] hmm dunno where it would be [09:34] FBANEXT, maybe move your $HOME/.wine-Folder to somewhere else, to check, if it's triggered by some weird configuration [09:34] expirement: i think it'll handle all 4 cores with 32bit, but the main question is the ram === leonidas_ is now known as Guest66181 [09:35] expirement: amd64 is just packaged to use 64-bit instructions on your processor. Q6600 is a 64-bit processor. I would use that. [09:35] You do realize I dunno how to do what you're saying [09:35] expirement AMD invented 64 bit x86 processors, so the version for them is called AMD 64. works fine on the intel clones too [09:36] Im currently running with 3GB of ram. 1GB stick on the way which i will install soon. Will the 32bit version cap me off at 3GB? [09:36] pretty much [09:36] ugh [09:36] FBANEXT: could always try a sudo apt-get remove wine then start with a fresh installation of wine [09:36] this is terrible help [09:36] not for me [09:36] expirement: yes, because not only the ram is important, also the ram of your VGA and the general PCI-BUS [09:37] fbanext - if you dont like it you could always pay a consultant [09:37] expirement: in that case you're probably better off with 64bit [09:37] right pay somebody, idiot [09:37] I'd just go back to windows xp [09:37] FBANEXT, have fun with xp :) [09:37] and say screw this cheap shit [09:37] FBANEXT: dont forget to leave this channel [09:37] steal, pay, ur choice [09:37] No I don't trust me [09:37] So, not only does 32bit limit your ram, but amount of memory on video card as well ? [09:38] you're an idiot [09:38] lol what [09:38] lol i hope you guys don't get a lot of FBANEXT's around here. [09:38] expirement: it limits your (ram + video memory) to 3.33gb i believe [09:38] raj007 you hope in vain [09:38] expirement: no, your VGA card will use all of its ram [09:39] ruan - is actually a limit of around 4G of addresses [09:39] expirement: but your "real" ram can only handle 4GB ram - VGA - PCI-BUS [09:39] mycosys: ah ok [09:39] expirement: so you can use PAE (so you dont have to reinstall) or you do a fresh amd64 installation [09:40] some are used by the buses, some by vga, what is left the OS can use [09:40] expirement: PAE can hanlde more then 4GB ram, but only 1.8GB per process [09:40] mycosys: 4GB - VGA - PCIBUS [09:40] i do apologize, but i am windows saavy more than anything and acronyms like PAE are foreign to me. If its not an annoyance could u speak in lamens terms for a newbie ? [09:40] -bios - a few other bits [09:41] !pae | expirement [09:41] expirement: To use more than ~3.2GB RAM on a 32bit system you can install the PAE-enabled kernel. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EnablingPAE for more info [09:41] PAE is used in doze too [09:41] expirement: just go with 64-bit (fresh install), currently my setup is Q6600@3.6Ghz & 6GB and is stable, working well. [09:41] expirement: physical address extension i believe [09:41] spot on ruan [09:41] Did you overclock your Q6600? [09:41] mine is 2.4 [09:42] expirement: yeah Q6600 are VERY overclock friendly. [09:42] i want to resize the harddisk so I can have windows and ubuntu at the same time. Im trying to run ubuntu livecd but i always get a initramfs error :S [09:42] awesome. I read something recently about dell bios's not allowing you to overclock, is this true? [09:42] mman: did you verify the integrity of the iso before you burned it? [09:42] expirement: all i did was push my FSB to 405 @ 9x multiplier. And yeah on Dell you can't overclock. [09:42] yes [09:42] expirementnormally yes [09:43] iirc alienware dells can oc [09:43] ruan, yes [09:43] let me open google real quick to figure out what FSB is =) [09:43] yeah alienware would. [09:43] expirement front side bus - the way old core and core2 cpus communicate to the rest of the system [09:43] expirement: urmm you also need to play a lot with voltages, stress test etc. [09:44] and older cpus too i spose [09:44] yea i'd probably wanna upgrade to liquid cooling as well [09:44] expirement NO!!!!!!!!!!!!! [09:44] no ?? [09:44] lol [09:44] good air is as good as most h2o [09:44] i hear overclocking is dangerous because of heat [09:44] hi [09:44] and badly maintained h2o will kill ir system [09:44] expirement: i'm running fine on air, i forgot which cooler i have, it's been years. [09:44] so take the heat away, just dont use liquid cooling ?? [09:44] there is a way to prevent nautilus to show hidden shares when browsing a windows network? [09:45] expirement good air will be enough for ANY 24/7 viable OC [09:45] hi there [09:45] is a bit OT here expirement - feel free to join us on efnet #desktops if u like [09:45] my dad used a large fan to cool his pc when the cpu fan failed, it was 10 degrees colder than it was with the cpu fan [09:45] how can i display the filesystem type of a lvm partition? [09:46] I've noticed that Ubuntu redirects MySQL's error log to syslog. Is it possible to change this behavior? [09:46] ruan - i had a 30cm box fan as my side fan for years [09:46] Wow i'm sorry. OT ?? [09:46] off topic expirement [09:46] ah ok [09:46] and this channel is chaotic [09:46] sry [09:46] why? [09:46] dont be sorry [09:46] i like this channel. Very helpful from the very beginning. [09:46] Grishnackh: i dont know what a lvm partition is, but have you tried sudo fdisk -l ? [09:46] would jus be easier there [09:46] must learn the rules though [09:48] ruan: jepp, i tried fdisk -l...but there's no record containing the filesystem type. lvm partition = lvm logical volume [09:48] i still need help on compiling and installing a program under ubunutu [09:48] did you try lvmdisplay? [09:48] Grishnackh [09:48] I'm sure here is someone who can help me [09:49] jrn: what program is it? [09:49] imagemagick [09:49] i downloaded the source, extracted it, ./configure, make, make install [09:49] Any recommendations for reading material on novice command lines and compiling ?? Books for purchase or awesome websites, doesn't matter. [09:49] but convert -version still brings the old one [09:50] mycosys: there is no command "lvmdisplay", i think you mean lvdisplay. jepp, i tried already [09:50] what step did I miss? [09:50] sudo blkid -g ; blkid is what u need Grishnackh [09:50] sorry [09:51] I meant to only underline novice, my bad. [09:51] ruan: any ideas? [09:51] mycosys: looks better, but for the fs type there's only TYPE="LVM2_member"... [09:51] jrn: did it come with instructions for installation? [09:51] yep, the steps i listed above [09:52] jrn why don't you install the official version from repo? [09:52] which are usual for compiling and installing under *nix [09:52] my repo doesn't offer the newest [09:52] even not after a dist upgrade === samael is now known as Guest33207 [09:53] Grishnackh will show it by mount point for the fs [09:53] jrn: what have the official imagemagick web version, that the the repo version doesn't have? [09:53] Grishnackh try ls -al /dev/disk/by-uuid and you should be able to figure out from the 2 what is what [09:53] 6.6.7-10 is the newest and 6.5.7-8 is what I have [09:54] Can some one help me on making my taskbars smaller [09:54] jrn: but there are some new features? the "old" version does not work? [09:54] sam__: right click it and click properties [09:54] hi, I've got an issue where my python script (maxing out most of my cores) will pause when screen is locked... any ideas? [09:55] ok [09:55] I need it to continue runnign in the terminal, but when i come back to the system after unlocking screen, I see that CPU has been flat [09:55] on my working machine I have the newest version, which can handle the font I want to use, on my server is the old version, which does not handle my font [09:55] do you mean the task bars? [09:55] sam__: yes [09:55] sam__: panels? [09:56] jrn: perhaps you should look for the options available on the ./configure step [09:56] jrn: for example, i use to use ffmpeg compiled from svn sources [09:56] It is not saying properties [09:56] there are no options listed [09:56] is it normal for terminal-based processes (i.e. python scripts) to pause when my screen is locked? Any idea how I can stop this? [09:56] :| [09:57] sam__: what do you mean by "taskbar"? [09:58] the box fount is to big on fire fox and the box itself is really big [09:58] jrn: perhaps in the help files there are not any options listed [09:58] Hi. I've got problem that (hopefully) can be resolved by this http://www.openprinting.org/printer/HP/HP-LaserJet_1005 steps. But can someone tell me where can I find the "sihp1005.dl" file? [09:59] hm I don't think the error lies there... make check let's it all pass [09:59] jrn: but i have just searched the imagemagick web, and look at the following link http://www.imagemagick.org/script/advanced-unix-installation.php [09:59] jrn: there are many options available [09:59] but one last question... afte make install, it should be installed as usual, shouldn't it? [10:00] Can anyone point me in the right direction -- after i lock screen my script (running in terminal) loses focus and seems to pause. When I click on it again only then does it resume... any ideas? [10:00] jrn: yes, but as ffmpeg, by default, there are some featured disabled by default [10:00] jrn: you if you want to have them, you have to recompile with the correct options enabled [10:00] my synaptic segfaults when i type anything in the quick search bar [10:00] any idea why ? [10:00] sam__: you can try F11 to go fullscreen in firefox [10:01] have to leave, i will connect in some minutes [10:01] yes but is there a way to make the boxes smaller? [10:03] sam__: you could remove any toolbars that you don't use [10:04] ok thank you ruan [10:04] hi ! [10:04] speaking of panels, i have this annoying problem. I am using cairo-dock and deleted both my panels (top and bottom). However when i log off and back in, they will both re-appear and i have to delete them everytime. How do i avoid this? [10:06] does anybody heah know why they deleted java jre from the packages [10:07] where can i find the log-file from fstab? [10:08] Grishnackh: /var/log ? [10:09] Dice-Man: i did an ll | grep fstab but there's nothing in [10:10] fstab is a file, not a service. grep for mount, but likely those errors would only occur in boot.log, which is disabled by default [10:11] Grishnackh: first, you want grep -ir fstab /var/log/* and not pipe the output to grep, second what you excpect in a log about fstab? [10:11] if i'm doing a fresh install on a system that already has separate partitions for /home and / is there anything that i need to back up? [10:12] happyhessian_: you cant install into an existing /, you have to format / [10:12] iceroot: i made an entry in fstab for automounting a lvm volume. while booting an error mounting /mnt/nas occures... [10:12] happyhessian_: and keep /home [10:12] iceroot: right, but what information on / is worth saving? [10:13] happyhessian_: configfiles you edit by hand [10:13] all of my personal files and settings are in /home, or at least so i'm led to believe [10:13] so like fstab or sources.list [10:14] are there any other things that i might overlook...vlc, mpd...almost every program i know of keeps its settings in /home [10:14] im a newbie at ubuntu. how can i do manually change dns ,change ip adress or use a proxy [10:14] actually, mpd might be in /etc [10:15] keke: /etc/networking/interfaces is the config file [10:15] llutz_: thanks, i actually found an error in there! [10:15] for ex. :dns server is 156.154.71.1 and 156.154.70.1 , proxy is 192.168.1.1:8080 like [10:17] keke: you can right-click on network manager applet and configure it in the GUI too [10:18] I have a problem with TeamSpeak 3. It fails to capture my mic source correctly. (gnome-sound-recorder has no problem, thus my mic source is ok) This is only this case with my mic source; TeamSpeak 3 captures the loopback source (Monitor) fine. [10:19] Auto eth0 ipv4 manual settings ive write adress 192.168.1.1 what is netmask and whats gateway [10:19] A sample of how TeamSpeak captures my mic source: http://neko.quezacotl.nl/problems/thisisatest.ogg [10:19] Wassasin: have you checked you can record audio with another app? [10:19] Yeah [10:20] gnome-sound-recorder works fine [10:20] keke: if you dont know what those are its best not to mess with them until you do. [10:20] keke: man 5 interfaces but you'd better use networkmanager and change things there [10:21] im a newbie in linux but expert in windows... but i never change netmask and gateway in windows,i only change ip adresses,dns servers etc. [10:21] jrn: did you find something in the link y pasted before? [10:22] is 255.255.255.0 default netmask? [10:22] My only guess is that TeamSpeak 3 implements the PulseAudio API incorrectly and does not check what the source format is [10:22] keke: most likely [10:22] Because that's the only difference between the sources, as far as PulseAudio and TeamSpeak 3 are concerned [10:22] A screeny of padenvchooser: http://neko.quezacotl.nl/problems/teamspeak3.png [10:22] keke: it depends, in your case probably since its class e [10:22] *class 3 [10:23] Hello, I'm getting a "permission denied" when trying to connect to my A2DP headset (Nokia bh-103) to my Ubuntu 10.10 http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/574906/ [10:23] Anyone knows how to solve this? I have tried both the built in Bluethooth manager and blueman. [10:24] Hello all [10:24] can someone give me some guidance? [10:24] How do I uncompress a .xz file? [10:24] !ask | Abdalla [10:24] Abdalla: 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. :-) [10:25] jussi: unlzma [10:25] why xsane recognizes my scanner only when i use the sudo (probably permission issue)? i recompiled genesys backend and xsane 0.98 because xsane 0.96 didn't recognize my scanner either ways [10:25] alright, its cause im newby at this, which os should i download to run on my laptop? the desktop ver10 or the netbook? [10:26] desktop [10:26] Abdalla: i recommend the desktop [10:26] even people with netbooks dont like the netbook version [10:26] Abdalla: the netbook version is a trifle lighter, but its up to you to choose. if your laptop is a bit older or a "mini laptop" - grab the netbook- [10:26] Abdalla: but try them both - its free :) [10:26] Thank you. [10:26] good idea [10:27] Abdalla, i recomend ubuntu 8.04.3 never had any issue with it and worked flawlessly on my win u100 except the wifi that can also be overcome by compiling a new module for wifi [10:28] llutz_: there doesnt appear to be a package by that name - am I missing something? [10:28] jussi: pakage is lzma [10:28] its an older outdated version [10:28] !info lzma [10:28] lzma (source: lzma): Compression method of 7z format in 7-Zip program. In component main, is optional. Version 4.43-14ubuntu2 (maverick), package size 58 kB, installed size 168 kB [10:28] llutz_: ahh, thank you. [10:29] Abdalla: even better than the desktop, try lubuntu for the netbook, it will run better, but it is uglier [10:29] you can always get themes :D [10:29] hello all i had a problem that i am not able to connect to the internet with my ubntu 0.04ltx through a gateway. the gui application again changes my gateway ip to 0.0.0.0 [10:29] ok...another question.im using ubuntu as a virtualOS in vmware,i share folders from my windows partition but how can i see it in ubuntu? (in virtualbox i use "connect to server" ).how can i show my F drive in ubuntu by using connect to server window. [10:29] Hello, I'm getting a "permission denied" when trying to connect to my A2DP headset (Nokia bh-103) to my Ubuntu 10.10 (http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/574906/) Anyone knows how to solve this?

How do I do this? Does Ubuntu has this package? Does it have a non-free repo? [10:47] jrn: i agree with MichaelDobrovits unistall first the previous release of imagemagick you have installed, purge all its components, and then try to reinstall it from sources, if it fails again, then try (first unistall again) to install the binary package ofered in their web but they are rpm files, you can convert them to deb using the program alien, to see how aliens works, type man alien, but you have to install it first, of course === shriekout__ is now known as shriekout [10:48] iqpi, thumbs up :) [10:50] bash is pretty detailed, maybe too much lol [10:50] anyway thanks^^ [10:50] Anubi, try in google: bash scripting or something that you need to know [10:51] Yeah, Michael, i found this: gnu.org/software/bash/manual [10:51] to get java on my machine can I just apt get it? or do I have to go to java.com [10:51] I used apt-get [10:52] shomon, you can apt-get iy but i sugggest using open-jdk instead oracle java === Michael is now known as Guest46610 [10:52] how to add APT line of the repository to install a file hplip-3.11.1.run which is available on HP authorised server? [10:52] yeah so open-jdk is more supported on websites? or is it just more free [10:52] shomon, sudo apt-get install openjdk-6-jre [10:53] shomon: it is totally free [10:53] cool thanks [10:53] shomon: and it works as oracle one works [10:53] ok just installed it! [10:54] thanks again [10:54] hi, which ubuntu version is better: 10.04LTS or 10.10? [10:54] 10.04 is more stable [10:54] pupit: there is no general BETTER [10:55] pupit, it depends which one you like more [10:55] Hi, I'm a debian user and need to install this package http://packages.debian.org/experimental/nvidia-opencl-dev on Ubuntu Lucid. How do I do this? Does Ubuntu has this package? Does it have a non-free repo? [10:55] pupit: there is not any better than other, you need to know what are your needs, if you are looking for stability, then the 10.04 if you don't mind stability or you like to have the never programs versions, then 10.10 [10:55] ah, ok then [10:55] zp, you can download opencl from nvidia i think [10:56] I prefer package [10:56] zp: don't know the answer, but you can try searching in http://packages.ubuntu.com [10:56] either way you can't go wrong [10:56] thank you [10:56] hey quick question, if i installed eclipse from the app ubuntu app store... which directory am i supposed to move the files into? O.o [10:56] O.o [10:56] whats the meaning of these errors http://mail.google.com/mail/?ui=2&ik=6fd2d077ba&view=att&th=12e7b5c73d69122d&disp=imgs? [10:56] thanks all [10:57] xAndromeda: When you say "which directory am I supposed to move the files into" - which files? If you installed from the Software Centre, you'll find Eclipse in your menus. [10:57] zp: if you install the propietary nvidia driver, you will have enabled the CUDA and opencl support enabled [10:58] hi [10:58] does any one [10:58] !anyone | besfort [10:58] besfort: A large amount of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..." Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out? See also !details, !gq, and !poll. [10:58] iqpi: which one? from their website? [10:58] iqpi, i think the nvidia removed opencl and cuda from their drivers [10:58] now any software to convert from bitmap to jpg [10:58] zp: this is an offtopic, your nick is the same as the "rude" way to call our presindent in Spain xD [10:58] besfort: convert (imagemagick) does [10:59] MichaelDobrovits: really? I did not know it [10:59] iqpi, they made seperate packages for them [10:59] for pydev ur suppsoed to copy the plugins/another folder into the eclipse folder, but i cant find where it is lol :/ [11:00] llutz, does it exist in software center [11:00] !info imagemagick [11:00] imagemagick (source: imagemagick): image manipulation programs.

[11:01] zp, http://developer.nvidia.com/object/cuda_3_2_downloads.html [11:01] for pydev ur suppsoed to copy the plugins/another folder into the eclipse folder, but i cant find where it is lol :/ [11:02] zp, nvidia holds the newest toolkit available in their site [11:02] ok thank you [11:02] zp, i'm not aware of any package that holds cuda toolkit or opencl [11:03] xAndromeda: It looks like the recommended way to do it is rather than copying files, to use the help->software updates->find and install menu option in Eclipse. [11:04] xAndromeda: Specifically, go there, choose "search for new features to install", go next, choose "new remote site", use the URL http://pydev.org/updates and it should be clear from there. [11:04] thxx a ton!!! i wasnt aware of that [11:05] xAndromeda: No problem. If you get a prompt about installing in user mode, go with that. Don't try to run it as root to do the install. [11:05] Hi! I'm wondering is LTS image on the site up to date or I have to do massive update on first run?

[11:52] ikonia: yes, it's 40 miles away [11:53] ikonia: i rebooted it after everything was done, wanted to make sure everything is back and running, since i stopped tons of services before i started [11:53] kasad: that's a real pain [11:53] kasad: sorry about that [11:53] kasad: ahhh give it time then [11:53] it may be a little slow coming up, running an fsck for example [11:53] ikonia: YAY you are the man, it's back on [11:54] ha ha [11:54] there we go [11:54] ok i had cold feet for a moment there [11:54] whew [11:54] kasad: big file system change, not unreasonable to run fsck after that [11:54] you are my savoiur and you bring me luck, was really worried now [11:54] kasad: it's quite common, don't worry [11:55] ikonia: i hoped for that, but kinda lots of time passed, and disk is almost empty, machine pretty fast so i was starting to bite my nails [11:55] kasad: big file system change though, can slow it down [11:55] good point [11:55] ikonia: everything running smooth now. thank you so much [11:55] kasad: even if it only had 1 file on it, the change to the layout was not small [11:55] kasad: more than welcome, pleased you're working [11:55] yeah understandable [11:56] thx juk [11:56] <3 [11:56] pirx: got it? [11:56] now i can dive back into safe world of php [11:57] kasad: out of interest thats a massive root partition, why so big ? [11:57] kasad: there maybe a few things we can do to make it a little better for you [11:57] f31n: if you install firestarter a gui for the firewall and click on the active connections it will show all program related traffic.

[12:09] ikonia: sorry was on the phone [12:09] kasad: no problem [12:09] ikonia: massive root partition is because i am a retard and didn't make separate partitions when i had the access to server [12:10] kasad: instead of extending that partition, you can still make use of external partitions to make it easier to manage [12:11] ikonia: they didn't provide me with all hardware i was excepting (they gave me one 7xx GB hd, instead of 2 x 1TB hards [12:11] ikonia: and they gave me 2nd drive when i already delivered the server [12:11] kasad: understood [12:12] ikonia: server is for intranet use only, some kind of information management system for a small company (no more then 20 people + some outside associates) [12:13] kasad: thats fine, just checking there wasn't a better way to do this to make it easier for you [12:13] ikonia: i should have partitioned it differently, but i just ended making one big /root and whole project is in /var/www (they have licenced plesk, so i just used parallels autoinstaller and to be honest i am not really versed in this [12:14] kasad: hindsight always makes things easier, don't worry about it [12:14] ikonia: :D [12:15] f31n: http://how-to.wikia.com/wiki/How_to_monitor_network_traffic_on_a_Linux_or_Unix_like_OS [12:17] i am having trouble understanding the instructions for scalpel file recovery [12:17] is anyone here familliar with this program and maybe could shed some light on the subject for me [12:17] !undelete [12:18] Some tools to recover lost data are listed and explained at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DataRecovery - Recovering deleted files on !ext3 filesystems can be virtually impossible, although methods that might work is some cases are described at at http://www.xs4all.nl/~carlo17/howto/undelete_ext3.html and http://projects.izzysoft.de/trac/ext3undel [12:19] its on an ntfs filesystem [12:20] justgreg: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DataRecovery <<< this has intruccions for photorec scalpel and other such tools. is generic not ext* specific === fred_ is now known as Guest75872 [12:22] Im startinng to see some pcie usb3 adaptor cards out now in stores. Anyone tried one in 10.10 yet? Im wondering if theres even a chance they are supported yet. :) [12:23] Dr_Willis: they should be it is xhci driver. like the {e,o,u}hci for usb 1,2 [12:23] erUSUL: going to try this one out i got later today. :) fingers crossed. === share is now known as ^share [12:23] Hopefully they wont be affected by the SLOW usb speeds bug that seems common on many linux systems. :() [12:24] Dr_Willis: well if you are talking about flash usb stick i do not think it would make much a difference :( [12:24] erUSUL: usb hard drives i find even have the issues for some of my machines. and flash [12:24] ikonia: if you have time, just out of curiosity, how would you partition the disk knowing what the server is meant to do (intranet MIS for 20 or so people who will be storing lots of files on it, with mysql db that will also rapidly grow in size, also they will sometimes access it remotely from their laptops (i use air application for that - go figure they demanded that they have "client" because one of chicks on the board i quote "doesn't like to use browsers" [12:25] I did some tweaks last week. Now getting like 5 MB/S transfers tween my 1+TB usb hd's [12:25] thats up from the 1-2 MB/S speeds i was getting [12:25] can someone help me? i just installed ubuntu netbook and i can't get the right click to work on my mouse [12:26] kasad: just split it into as many options as suites you, eg: /var so your logging is seperate, /srv so your data (mysql/www/whatever) is seperate, / so your root is sperate /boot , /home, swap, [12:26] Amako: try it in the console. see if it works there. You may need to install 'gpm' first to test it. [12:26] bbl [12:26] ok i'll try that one sec === max_ is now known as Max32167 [12:27] yo [12:28] ikonia: thanks, technically i could still do that considering that it's whole / is LVM [12:30] kasad: true, but is it worth the pain due to your location to the server [12:30] ikonia: do you think it would be wise, (knowing there's 2 750 gig hd's available atm). Main reason why I didn't messed with it was because I wasn't sure about the size [12:31] kasad: I'd leave it alone personally [12:31] can anybody help me out with an install on a laptop. I need an updated kernel (as per #600453), so can I get that rolled into my installer somehow or should I go through the text installer? [12:31] so I followed this guide. https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MountWindowsSharesPermanently -- however it does not mount them on boot cause network isn't up fast enough I guess.. I keep having to drop to terminal from x and issue a sudo mount /mnt/destination [12:31] ikonia: i guess it isn't unless i could get some problems due to everything being stuck onto same partition, as i said, main reason is that i was _very_ unsure about the setting proper size (i know it can be remedied via LVM but this way, i hope to never touch it again, until it's time to add another hd) [12:31] kasad: for me, I'd leave it [12:31] ikonia: that makes two of us :D [12:32] my dmesg contains CIFS VFS: cifs_mount failed w/return code = -101 at around 21 seconds in, and again a -113 error at around 40 seconds in [12:32] ikonia: thanks again for reasurrance [12:32] both associated with could not connect to socket [12:32] welcome [12:32] /salute === Guest93222 is now known as JoshuaL [12:33] Hello, i played with xinput yesterday to use two pointers.

How to limit the number of available usb ports? [12:45] hello everyone. I have a big problem: i've got a virus that made impossible to the computer to see my hard disk. I've tried to load the Ubuntu SO, and it sees the partitions, and it can modify the files, but when I was back on the windows installation CD, it says that there aren't disk present [12:46] mechanist: ##windows for help with windows. It seems like you're asking about a windows issue. If I'm mistaken, please let me know [12:46] ys you're mistaking: the question is: why ubuntu sees my hd and windows no? [12:47] :-/ [12:47] partitions are in ntfs [12:47] file system [12:47] :) [12:47] mechanist, its win proble. not ubuntu [12:47] SearchOfSunrise: nope, because its' in NTFS [12:47] google.bg - fix filesystem [12:47] ntfs file system :) [12:47] ntfs is 'their' prop file sys naa? [12:48] fix filesystem?? [12:48] hmmm [12:48] mechanist: I'm not sure how ubuntu seeing an ntfs partition is a problem. Ubuntu can read and write to ntfs. [12:48] http://support.microsoft.com/kb/315265 something like that [12:49] yes but you have to use this program only when the os is loaded [12:49] go to windows and use chkdsk [12:49] in this case neither the os loads [12:50] hm [12:50] what exactly is the .cache folder in home used for? [12:50] it tells me disk error [12:50] mechanist, it seems windows problem. try asking in ##windows [12:50] perhaps more importantly, is it safe to delete?

[12:54] any body can help me, am used ubuntu 10.10 === Guest24446 is now known as jussi01 [12:55] PCChris: reading http://standards.freedesktop.org/basedir-spec/basedir-spec-0.6.html you'll see ~/.cache is what $XDG_CACHE_HOME should default to. Personally, I have several things in there [12:56] jrib, thank you [12:56] hi! need some help with an ssh server. im trying to connect to my friend, but all i get is permission denied when i enter the password. he can ssh to himself. why? [12:56] PCChris: to answer your original question, it should probably be safe to delete but an application could be stupid too in theory... [12:56] jrib, haha ok thanks [12:56] Xecuter: what do you mean by "ssh to himself"? [12:57] jrib ssh 127.0.0.1 [12:57] so what's the easiest way to grab just the kernel from natty?

[13:33] coz_, restricted are also installed plus before that i manualy installed flash by downoading .deb from adobe website [13:33] Abhijit, well search for ubuntu restricted extras if that is installed then flash is installed as well === rohit is now known as Guest73097 [13:33] coz_, ubu restricted extra is shown as instlled [13:33] Abhijit, ok so you installed that,, what is the issue? [13:33] guys, what bugs 're fixed or what exactly the difference in the 10.04.1 and the 10.04.2 ? [13:33] coz_, i cant open flash video website in my firefox nad chromiurm [13:33] general question, is FF building nightly now? [13:33] I just said sudo apt-get in ##windows...I thought the whole place was going to lose their mind lol [13:34] coz_, while visint this page http://linuxologist.com/1general/why-open-source-makes-sense-scientifically-proven/ firefox gives me error plugins missing and chromium just dont show anything [13:34] Abhijit, open firefox in the address bar type about:plugins [13:34] Abhijit, see if flash is listed [13:34] hey tryna test gnome shell with my ubuntu building it up from git and i encouter this error "" ./autogen.sh --prefix /home/wamicho/gnome-shell/install --libdir '/home/wamicho/gnome-shell/install/lib' --disable-static --disable-gtk-doc "" any body know how to solve this ?? [13:34] "what is sudo apt-get????!?!?!?" lol [13:34] Pici, 2 problems : 1/openldap is named slapd in ubuntu, confusing new users. 2/firefox-branding is either a bad choice of name or there is some abuse since branding should not ever come as an "important security update"... [13:35] Help!! the network icon is not showing up?? how to restart it?? [13:35] slipkid08: you don't use ar to extract your packages ? [13:35] Abhijit, I believe it will be listed under "Shockwave flash" [13:35] coz_, this is the only etry with word flash video/flv Flash video flv Yes otherwise there is no mention of slash or shockwave [13:35] no [13:35] wamicho: that doesn't appear to be an error. is the build failing later on? [13:35] toxic: ubuntu-dev mailing list would be the location, but search the archives [13:36] sipor yap [13:36] ar? [13:36] wamicho: that's very informative. [13:36] toxic: and while you add it, the debian-devel ones too [13:36] sipior it says *** Error during phase configure of gnome-control-center: ########## Error running ./autogen.sh --prefix /home/wamicho/gnome-shell/install --libdir '/home/wamicho/gnome-shell/install/lib' --disable-static --disable-gtk-doc *** [13:36] Abhijit, well get rid of ubuntu restricted extras from synaptic see if the manually installed flash works after that [13:37] toxic: (and the reason firefox-branding comes with the security update is because it's built from the same source package as the rest of firefox) [13:37] :-op [13:37] toxic: Well, in the case of slapd, we're just using the package names that debian uses. [13:37] coz_, oh [13:37] coz_, but [13:37] coz_, then i need to reinstall ubu restricted extra afterwards??? ohhh okay i will try it [13:37] coz_, cant we just uninstall that manualy installed flash and then reinstall restricted? [13:37] wamicho: that doesn't actually say what the error is, only the command that generated it. check the build logs. [13:37] kromagg, the building process shouldn't cause such things... [13:37] i'm on ubuntu 10.10 it keeps asking for password for certain operations and it wont accept my loging password. so i'm trying to reinstall. it says 'burning disc (100% done)' but estimated remaining time keeps growing. what do i do? [13:37] Abhijit, well uninstall that first then uninstall the flash you manually installed [13:38] Abhijit, then reinstall ubuntu restricted extras and nothing else [13:38] coz_, ohh okay [13:38] Pici, so I go complain in #debian ;) [13:38] toxic: Essentially. :/ [13:38] coz_, i will try it . i will need some time. will report you after that. [13:38] I am looking for a YouTube video player, kind of like minitube. Anyone have suggestions? I don't really have a need to download the videos. I would like to be able to make a custom playlist though. [13:38] it's not possible to assign applications a default desktop to shop/open on is it? [13:38] I tried googling but found mostly negative answers [13:38] Abhijit, ok [13:38] s/shop/show/ [13:39] coz_, there is only just little prob though! [13:39] toxic: it's a legal artifact in this case [13:39] coz_, thing is this is my 64 bit lucid and i installed 32 bit .deb of flash. so question is how to remove it in command line? [13:39] toxic: but you could always lobby for grouping updates under source names [13:39] GreenNerd: you can make playlists on youtube? [13:39] coz_, i installed it by doing sudo dpkg -i --force-all [13:39] Abhijit, you installed this via a .dev packages...yes? [13:40] coz_, yes [13:40] Abhijit, then it should be in synaptic package manager listed there [13:40] How can I cleanly tell Ubuntu 10.10 to use g++-4.5 as default? Seems everything defaults to g++-4.4 and update-alternatives has no entries for g++. I can do it by editing all the symlinks, but that feels wrong... [13:40] sipior sory am a bit new just following what the article shows how to build this using the jhbuild where do i check the log..? === YL is now known as film [13:40] kromagg, legal artifacts are _not_ security updates.... [13:40] at least shouldn't be ! [13:40] ethanol, I do not want to use a full web browser. I want a small, stand alone player. [13:41] how can i tell my network card to use the kernel device driver iwlwifi? [13:41] coz_, i checked again. its not! :'( [13:41] Anyone know a good meeting note software like MS Notes for Ubuntu? [13:41] wamicho: should be a file in the build directory. [13:41] Thanks. [13:41] Abhijit, what was the name of the package you downloaded from adobe? [13:41] ok, I have just plugged a hard drive into my linux machine, formatted it and now its called "New Volume" I can find the drive in /media/New Volume.. a couple of things.. does this mean is fully mounted/working? i.e I could stick a samba share on it? also how do i change its name? [13:41] film, basket. [13:41] coz_, install_flash_player_10_linux.deb [13:41] oh [13:42] !label | Kingsy [13:42] Kingsy: To rename the labels of your partitions, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RenameUSBDrive. [13:42] toxic: you misunderstand, I was only talking about the reason it's split that way [13:42] Abhijit, not sure then [13:42] what's the pros of using a swap file? [13:42] coz_, :-o [13:42] toxic: that there are no incremental updates (i.e. small patches instead of upgrading everything) has to do with different constraints [13:42] :'( [13:42] hey [13:42] hello? [13:42] it's like adding extra memory, right? [13:42] what is the name of the program that shows the current usb device map? [13:42] lsusb [13:43] like what ports are in use [13:43] ok [13:43] coz_, dpkg -i is for install so what is dpkg for uninstall? tell me that let me try [13:43] thanks [13:43] slipkid08: when you run out of ram your applications won't just die :) Plus if you have enough swap, it allows you to hibernate [13:43] pen_: sudo lshw may also be helpful [13:43] Abhijit, and you are sure there are no flash player packages listed in synatic that are still installed? [13:43] ahh I see [13:43] I don't run out of ram often [13:43] thanks [13:43] only when I am using this as a media server [13:43] coz_, there is swf player for gnome and ubu restricted is listed. no flash player not the adobe one [13:43] !swap | slipkid08 [13:43] slipkid08: swap is used to move unused programs and data out of main memory to make your system faster. It can also be used as extra memory if you don't have enough. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SwapFaq for more info [13:44] Hello, I have linux on every computer, so there's no way to do it from windows. A friend of mine gave me his netbook to install windows xp on it, but there's no cd drive, how can I install windows xp from usb using linux to prepare the usb? [13:44] Hey all. Could you make a second to help me? [13:44] ?? [13:44] Abhijit, ok log off and back on or better yet ctrl+alt+F1 log in then sudo restart gdm [13:44] film, i answered you above [13:44] Is there any good meeting note software like MS Notes for Ubuntu? [13:44] Neosano, you could as last resort install WinXP in VirtualBox and do it from there... [13:44] film, what does MS notes do ? [13:45] coz_, i done all that installation yesterday. this is my 3-rd or 4th loogin now. so i dont think log off will make any difference? [13:45] film, can you read me? [13:45] Abhijit, then I am puzzled [13:45] MS Notes is used to write down the minies of a meeting. [13:45] coz_, :-( [13:45] TinoDidriksen, yeah, but it would take twice of the time :) any faster way? [13:45] kromagg, yes, ok, I'm not against the fact that firefox-branding gets updated so I can update firefox if it firefox has known important security updates. But all dependencies should not be listed in the important security updates.... [13:45] Abhijit, I can read you. But not found your answer. Thanks. [13:46] film, BASKET [13:46] jrib: its not a USB drive if that matters.. its IDE [13:46] film SEE THIS http://basket.kde.org/ [13:46] Kingsy: directions should be the same [13:46] Abhijit, thank you. I tried BASKET before. [13:46] good luck then [13:46] Neosano, could try dd the CD image to a USB stick and mark the partition bootable... [13:46] jrib: np thanks [13:47] Kingsy: you've formatted it already? [13:47] Ab, I'm thinking maybe there is some other ware. [13:47] TinoDidriksen, and by cd image you mean iso file? [13:47] TinoDidriksen, cuz I only have iso :o [13:48] TinoDidriksen, I've tried using unetbootin, cuz somebody there said that it works. But it doesn't work for me [13:48] film, there is basket not pad not sure if that is what you want [13:48] Neosano, that should have worked...could be the partition wasn't set bootable, or the netbook wasn't told to boot from USB. [13:48] Just finished a fresh install of kubuntu 10.10 and my up arrow is not working [13:49] film, there is xournal [13:49] TinoDidriksen, hmmm, should I format my usb thumb to ntfs or fat?

(it's some sort of floating window kept above all windows with a thumbnail of your selected window) [14:27] clearly I need more coffee [14:27] xubuntu89: I don't want an example, I want to know what screen appears [14:27] and I haven't said "window" so much times before in a single paragraph [14:27] xD [14:27] xubuntu89: if you are getting a screen that says "press X to install" then you are booting from install media [14:27] darkguy: You can set a window to be 'always on top' from gnome (and probably in kde too). But the 'selection of a window' part looks a bit more complicated. [14:28] Pici: yeah, that works, but the idea is to have a thumbnail of it, so you can have the window minimized - or in another workspace - and still see it in its full size [14:28] im not getting that im getting nothing coz no loading is happening [14:28] xubuntu89: right, so either a.) your hard disk is dead/dyiung b.) your video card is not setup/compatible [14:28] Hi [14:28] gpodder is horrible for youtube [14:28] Is gnome shell 2.91.90 usable for desktop user? [14:28] I'm at school, nobody around with Linux, and I need to run fsck on an SD install of Debian [14:29] AndChat|: ask the guys in #debian then [14:29] AndChat|: this is ubuntu support [14:29] No answer there [14:29] AndChat|: and you've been told it is a bad idea [14:29] lol [14:29] AndChat|: yes there is, you've just been told it's a bad idea in there, and you've been told it's a bad idea in here, end [14:30] Wow. [14:30] The guy just needed help [14:30] Sux to be him [14:30] why dont you boot a livesystem and run the fsck from that? [14:30] ikonia: I'm on a phone, didn't notice that answer before. And yes, I'm giving up [14:30] darkguy: I'd wonder if the #compiz folks have any suggestions, as any program would need to leverage the compositing window manager to do its thing. [14:31] darkguy: and this is probably a better link to share, it explains the features better: http://www.klopfenstein.net/lorenz.aspx/ontopreplica [14:31] i get Verifying DMI Pool Data and no loading after that !!!!

[14:44] hi, i used to have a sound problem and it was fixed by installing linux-alsa-driver-modules-$(uname -r) then after few weeks by get updates of the update manager the sound vanished "nothing is muted" how can i fix this problem ? [14:44] I found in /etc/fstab I have the line UUID=428c4c33-0208-46d5-8b7d-56d39ca7a3e7 none swap sw but sudo blkid shows I have 3 swap partitions but none with that number, so do I have no swap partition in use? [14:45] crontab entries are put in /etc/cron.d/ where as contents of directories like /etc/cron.hourly/ , /etc/cron.daily/ are regular executables (binaries or scripts) [14:45] try mkswap -U UUID [14:46] jatt: who me?

[14:52] vivek200912: there should be also a tomcat binary, call it with --help to see if there is a debug-mode [14:52] iceroot: what should i do?

[14:55] troulouliou: you can't skip releases [14:56] troulouliou: also, keep in mind 11.04 has not been released and is not stable [14:56] jatt: well I'm not sure what mkswap will do, will that change what is in /etc/fstab? [14:56] jrib: yeah i know it is for testing purpose :) ok so i switch first to 10.10 [14:57] troulouliou: yes [14:57] troulouliou: Also, natty/11.04 support/discussion is only in #ubuntu+1 [14:57] ok [14:57] troulouliou: although, if you just want to test, it would be safer to just use a virtual machine [14:57] hi [14:57] jrib: testing it just fine here ;) [14:58] * jrib uploads natty_explode.deb [14:58] I think to be safe I will modify my /etc/fstab to point at the now present swap and reboot before I mess with the spare swap partitions [14:59] what's the best twitter client for ubuntu, anyone> [14:59] !best > offsense [14:59] offsense, please see my private message [15:00] ubottu: wud u post in here so everybody knows it m8 [15:00] Error: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) [15:00] Hey there, I'm having trouble installing MCRInstaller.bin on Ubuntu 10.10, details here: http://matlab.pastebin.com/Wf7JPBGD Let me know if there's any other relevant info I should post, thanks.

[16:53] Hmmm... I'm curious about how Ubuntu handles memory. I'm a new user and something I am using is eating up a lot of the RAM. In use as cache apparently. I don't know how to free up that memory without restarting. [16:53] !grub [16:53] grub is the default boot manager for Ubuntu releases before 9.10 (Karmic). Lost GRUB after installing Windows? See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestoreGrub - GRUB how-tos: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto - See !grub2 for Karmic onwards. [16:54] ThinkT510, what is the uid=1000 for? [16:54] !vpn | Lars___ [16:54] Lars___: For more information on vpn please refer to https://wiki.ubuntu.com/VPN [16:54] Kaleidomorph: This is correct behavior for Linux. Just mentally subtract the cache size. [16:54] jpmonette: that is the default id for a user account, type id into a terminal [16:54] what is unattended-upgrades ? [16:54] okay [16:54] service [16:54] thanks a lot! [16:55] jpmonette: no worries [16:55] So just ignore the memory in cache? [16:55] Hi. I just installed mencoder [sudo apt-get install mencoder] to convert from .wmv to .avi, but I can't seem to work out how to actually convert the .wmv file. Does anyone know? [16:55] Kaleidomorph: Yes. [16:55] This package can download and install security upgrades automatically [16:55] and unattended, taking care to only install packages from the [16:55] configured APT source, and checking for dpkg prompts about [16:55] Which vpn-service should I use? Or is it same same but different:-) [16:55] dajhorn: Understood. [16:55] Hi. Why does rmmod works while blacklisting in /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf does not? [16:56] Kaleidomorph: The `free` command does some of that math for you. [16:56] Kaleidomorph: Restart your system to boost performance! I too do same task in successive intervals!

Protecting sensitive data etc. [17:10] I should be possible, and I want to see how will my program look without gnome [17:10] guest234234: A better solution could be to disable gnome gvfs automounting.

Disable the "external storage" and "fuse". [17:12] !mailserver | heavy_bullets [17:12] heavy_bullets: Ubuntu supports the Simple Mail Transfer Protocol (SMTP) and provides mail server software of many kinds. You can install a basic email handling configuration with the "Mail server" task during installation, or with the "tasksel" command.

[17:17] maco: if I try startx -x ./HelloWord it says x server is already running [17:17] according to http://intellinuxwireless.org/ the driver is included in the kernel, so i guess it should be working :s [17:18] fadax: what output does lsusb give? [17:18] guest234234: I could defeat your `modprobe -r` security hack by rebooting the computer with a USB stick attached. [17:18] guest234234: And that vector can easily happen accidentally. [17:19] fadax: also, what does lspci give? [17:20] joel135 well i'm not with the laptop at the moment, but i ran that command earlier and lsusb didn't show anything to do with networking. i tried lspci too and that showed a device Intel Corporation Device 0091 (rev 34) which i guess is the network card [17:20] I added the frequency scaling applet to the gnome panel and set the frequency of both cores to 800 mhz. all of sudden my cores are running at much lower temperatures and all the programs run just as fast as before. can someone explain this?

[17:33] histo: the problem is not the mounting. the problem is that I cant access the folder because of permissions. So... do I need to change /home permissions to access that folder from livecd? [17:34] is that the only way? [17:34] jrib, meh. [17:34] help_me: no, the problem is mounting [17:34] Thank you all for making ubuntu..

You probably don't have write access or soemthing goofy with the way it was mounted. [17:36] Has anybody deployed Ubuntu on a Windows domain?

My boss can open PDF and Word Docs on his machine which runs the same versions of the OpenOffice and Document Viewer. We are also on the same kernel version, however I cannot seem to open any documents he sends me. He is running 10.04 and I am running 10.10 any issues you might know about with this?

[17:55] ikonia: dont get me wrong dude, i could have read the man pages of mdadm but i really do not want to mess this one up, ya know *g* [17:55] remoteCTR1: do what you want [17:56] remoteCTR1: if you didn't want to have messed it up, you would have read how to manage a read array before jumping in [17:56] ikonia: i meant that is the reason why i asked here before touching anyting, right? === M3de is now known as FarkBarn [17:56] you didn't you swapped the disk [17:56] how do you unmount a drive from the shell?

[18:36] im completely noob at ubuntu/linux please bear with me [18:36] !lucid [18:36] Ubuntu 10.04 LTS (Lucid Lynx) was the twelfth release of Ubuntu. Download http://releases.ubuntu.com/10.04/ - Release Info: http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/releasenotes/1004 [18:36] ruan could u tell me? [18:36] ruan, it's a tool which lets you pick a color [18:36] and gives you it's hex representation [18:36] Madhu: do you have a ubuntu livecd? [18:36] there are many online tools... [18:36] Would people here recommend using the firefox addon "Flash Aid" ? Will it conflict with chrome?? [18:36] yes === kloeri_ is now known as kloeri === Styx is now known as AStyx [18:37] experiment, how will a FF extension conflict with Chrome? :) [18:37] ty ubottu [18:37] it would be better if any screenshot is avail for partition step by step.

[18:38] oh thanks all of you. [18:38] Because it sais "The following plugins have been detected by Flash-Aid and are selected to be removed. This is essential to make sure the proper plugin, that will be installed, gets loaded by Firefox.

[18:39] Madhu, yes [18:39] Madhu: mp3s play on all systems, provided a proper codec [18:39] to keep your flash up to date in firefox and prevents conflicts [18:39] you might have to install some codecs [18:40] i guess firefox doesn't automatically update flash [18:40] pr0ton: it allows you too maintain the various flash installs on your computer [18:40] gartal, oh ok [18:40] i think flash will soon be dead :P [18:40] anyonr using an nvidia 305m or close to it? [18:40] experiment: but update manager also updates flash [18:40] madhu, in ubuntu you can run "sudo apt-get install ubuntu-restricted-extras" (without quotes) to install most of the codecs [18:40] I have a problem with nautilus [18:41] washuu_de: what is the problem? [18:41] ruan but sometimes it doesn't consider the fact if your using 64bit or 32bit. thats where flash-aid is suppose to come in handy, reduce conflicts and stuff [18:42] nautilus is what is called from GIMP for saving [18:42] ne? [18:42] in fedora faq i read like mp3 support not avail. [18:42] Please see all "# 2.7 Why doesn't Fedora include support for proprietary formats like MP3 or MPEG?" On "http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/FAQ" [18:42] Anybody here care to give me there opinion on using AMD64 ubuntu? Preferably the cons =) [18:42] Madhu: they don't support it, that's why the codecs are in the restricted repositry [18:43] Madhu: it is installable, but its not preinstalled [18:43] then how to use mp3 format? [18:43] oh i got ur point. [18:43] washuu_de, no, it is gtk-save dialog [18:43] is it legally safe.

I am about to install ubuntu 10.10 for dlna server for my samsung un46c6300 LED TV and would like to know if the ubuntu desktop or server i should go with ?. Basically what I am looking for in features is a media server that will distribute movies (.avi.mkv.mp4.mpeg2.dvix) and music (.flac) formats that will play without any hiccups, and i was thinking of using mediatomb for [19:09] this. [19:09] ilessthan3ubuntu: Well, I may have need of compatibility with nonlinux systems for this drive, being primarily a data drive, and I don't know how compatible ext4 actually is. === andrew_ is now known as Guest77449 [19:09] arbitrator: you can use fat32 or fat16 if you wish, neither are particularly great [19:09] Pici, its really freaking me out... i cant handle this shit.

[19:10] Though it doesn't by default support formatting to NTFS. [19:10] is it possible i formate hdd from xp as desired partition and then install ubuntu? [19:10] Madhu: which is funny as its a proprietary file system, wheras microsoft OSes cannot access Ext4 even though the definitions are available freely [19:10] Pici, ok fine man, maco, sorry, but really am in trouble. cant handle this, please help [19:10] Anyway, hardly relevant. So when I try to fdisk -l the external hd it acts like it is completed without actually listing any information. [19:11] learner: please help you handle something? grasp it firmly, then lift [19:11] pici: sorry what you say about my version. PC crahsed. [19:11] learner: Just ask the channel your question again, all on one line if you could. [19:11] kyle1: I didn't understand what your reply was. [19:11] arbitrator: sudo? [19:11] madhu just don't crash your windows or you ll have to start system check through windows for accessing NTFSdrive in ubuntu [19:11] Pici, ok [19:12] Madhu: If you're planning on formatting it to NTFS then you cannot install Ubuntu on that. Your Ubuntu install CD can format the drive itself to the proper filesystem. [19:12] pici: it all says xenserver. [19:12] what version of wine should i install [19:12] sorry but i have a question. is it right that each instalition of linux needs 3 drives one for swap ? that means when somebody wants to instal ubuntu and open suse for example most create 6 ext3 drives which 2 of them are the swap. is it right ? [19:12] is there something else i can check. [19:12] Mmm. That could explain it, when it was mounted it was placed in /media/ but now it isn't. Wonder what heading it is listed under in /dev/ [19:12] AbismoNegro: 2 [19:12] I am having trouble in configuring xulrunner-1.9.2, which is not getting configured while installing or updating or upgrading.

[19:12] AbismoNegro: No,you generally can share the swap drive across two linux installs. Unless you're planning on hibernating one and then booting to the other. [19:12] I am having trouble in configuring xulrunner-1.9.2, which is not getting configured while installing or updating or upgrading. need help. some one helpplease [19:12] ilessthan3ubuntu: or you want to hibernate....

[19:15] AbismoNegro: you can't resize partitions on a disk that the system is using, or horrible things happen [19:15] Madhu, boy be patient [19:15] are there other common apt-get commands [19:15] tim167: ok then you don't want it to mount [19:15] ActionParsnip, man, do i have to reinstall xulrunner too again or is it installed itself with firefox [19:15] tsimpson: you can if you are using LVM [19:15] Madhu: I need to know if you're installing Ubuntu or Fedora [19:15] what about the 2 other ext3 partitions which are going to take open suse? they'll be shared with ubuntu too?

[19:18] ilessthan3ubuntu: hibernate = suspend to disk, not ram. the contents of ram are written to the swap partition [19:18] maco, and i said suspend is fine i dont need hiber [19:18] actionparsnip did you see the pic? what is better to instal open suse in? formatting an ntfs drive or installing it on ubuntu drives [19:18] i know the difference smarty pants [19:18] moby_: faça "/join #ubuntu-br" sem as aspas.

[19:19] pici i have antoher query [19:19] ilessthan3ubuntu: erm yeah [19:19] Hello everyone. I am about to install ubuntu 10.10 for dlna server for my samsung un46c6300 LED TV and would like to know if the ubuntu desktop or server i should go with ?. Basically what I am looking for in features is a media server that will distribute movies (.avi.mkv.mp4.mpeg2.dvix) and music (.flac) formats that will play without any hiccups, and i was thinking of using mediatomb for [19:19] this. [19:19] Ubuntu will be running on a socket 754 dual-core athlon 64 bit 2800+ process w/ 2GB of ram [19:19] AbismoNegro: just leave unpartitioned space ad then select the free space to install suse to [19:19] maco, yeah i was saying that, he prolly needs it sinec he is new to this stuff [19:19] ActionParsnip: the button 'make startup disk' in Make Startup Disk program remains grey and inactive, i deleted the fat32partition on the usb disk, selected a ubuntu iso... === ljl2 is now known as LjL [19:20] Okay guys, completely different question now. [19:20] actionparsnip i know that.i mean that do i have to format and convert ntfs to ext3 for instaling suse? [19:20] tim167: did you choose the right disk in the bottom half of the dialogue [19:20] Madhu: Just ask the channel. [19:20] means pici? [19:20] The reason I have this drive is to copy the contents of a partition of a failing hard disk to it, so that I have some way of saving it. [19:20] ActionParsnip: yes, i choose /dev/sdb [19:20] AbismoNegro: i know it can install to ext3, I am not sure of the ext4 support in suses personally, ask in the suse channel [19:20] Should I copy these contents to a partition on the new drive, or what? [19:20] Madhu: Don't ask me if you can ask another question, just ask. [19:20] why does ubuntu wake up whenever i plug or unplug my laptop? [19:20] Four2zero: i use 'ushare' but it has issues with some formats. there are workarounds that are very simple. my box is below average and it does well. the only hold up is LAN bandwidth [19:20] ok [19:21] you mean installing in the drives which ubuntu is already installed in? dosnt that reduce performance of ubuntu or sth? [19:21] tim167: try: gksudo usb-creator [19:21] ActionParsnip: that's the same program, no ? i'll try [19:21] AbismoNegro: no not at all, you will just have less space for ubuntu, it won't affect speed at all === behel1t is now known as joelsfd [19:21] in xp which programme i downloaded from net they will save on hdd before install, but in ubuntu i cant find the installation where are saving. === joelsfd is now known as behel1t [19:21] they are directly installed. [19:21] tim167: running with gksudo should run it with extra access and may work [19:22] bastidrazor, what formats does ushare have problems with playback and what ubuntu version are your running Server or Desktop ? [19:22] tim167: you could format the stick to fat32 and the app may then pick it up [19:22] so is'nt that better to format and convert the 132gb ntfs drive and install suse there? [19:22] when I boot my machine it doesn't offer me a choice for which kernel to use, like a GRUB menu?? [19:22] ActionParsnip: yes ok i'll format it _back_ to fat32 [19:22] Madhu: when you download something it goes to /home/username/Downloads [19:22] codemagician: hold the shift key while booting to see the grub menu [19:22] no thingt510. [19:23] IdleOne, is there way to configure Ubuntu to always present it? [19:23] i install with synaptic. [19:23] ilessthan3ubuntu: i dont know what "being new" and "needing the system to be able to stay in that state for a week instead of just a day" have to do with each other. or "new" and "needing it to be fully powered down to get on an airplane" have to do with each other either (no, suspend is actually not a valid response to "please turn off..." on the plane) [19:23] ThinkT510: He seems to be telling about package manager. [19:23] !grub2 > codemagician [19:23] codemagician, please see my private message [19:23] codemagician: see the message from ubottu [19:23] Four2zero: 10.04, mp4 have to be renamed to m4v and mkv also needs to be renamed to m4v.. the change in extension has zero effect on playback. [19:23] what's the optimal partition type for a flash drive? I don't need windows support and need file permissions.. [19:23] Madhu, you don't need to worry about where they go. just use sudo apt-get install [19:23] What does it mean when it says "the daemon is being inhibited" when I try to format a drive? [19:24] maco, i never listen when they say turn off electronics [19:24] bastidrazor: be nice if it changed the encoding with the rename wouldnt it ;) [19:24] ActionParsnip: formatted the usb disk to fat32, no change in usb-creator-gtk [19:24] !synaptic | Madhu [19:24] Madhu: synaptic is Ubuntu's Graphical Package Manager. For a good howto see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SynapticHowto [19:25] ActionParsnip: yes and no. more overhead would be an issue for me. [19:25] !synaptic | Madhu [19:25] yes [19:25] tim167: could try unetbootin [19:25] if i have an unmet dependency package teed up for installation and it's blocking other apt-gets, how do i cancel that offending install? [19:25] bastidrazor just the change in extensions, so no transcoding or converting formats. So ushare will work with popular formats that are widely used ? [19:25] i want the installation. [19:25] ubottu, !boot drive [19:25] A minimal install of lucid is 769MBs? [19:25] Four2zero: yes. for me it does exactly what i want.

[19:26] It goes into /var/cache/apt/archives === Pestilence is now known as Guest5051 [19:26] queso: if you use minimal you can get it to about 200Mb if memory serves, you will get a bootloader a kernel and kernel modules [19:26] ActionParsnip: wierd though, the fat32 formatted disk does not mount [19:26] Então estou precisando de uma ajudinha aí... instalei o xubuntu 10.10 e o drive de som não está funcionando.... alguem já passou por isso? [19:26] maco, and i travel ALOT [19:26] Madhu: you want the individual .deb package files? [19:26] tim167: ever thought the USb stick may be bad? [19:26] what does it mean in aptitude when i do a search and on the leftmost column it says [19:26] bastidrazor think i should run it on the ubuntu server or desktop ? [19:26] what's the optimal partition type for a flash drive? I don't need windows support and need file permissions.. [19:26] "iB" or "pB"? [19:26] yes Think. [19:26] its just preference i guess [19:26] or does not matter which ? [19:26] ActionParsnip: Ooh, I used the MinimalCD. How do you do a minimal install? [19:27] Madhu: why? [19:27] moby_: faca /join #ubuntu-br [19:27] tim167: got a windows pc around? Format it there and use the safetly remove option then try it in Ubuntu [19:27] IdleOne, thanks I will reboot [19:27] ilessthan3ubuntu: well good for you for breaking the rules. would you like a cookie? [19:27] !minimal | queso [19:27] queso: The Minimal CD image is very small in size, and it downloads most packages from the Internet during installation, allowing you to select only those you want (the installer is like the one on the !Alternate CD).

[19:27] couse where is net not avail there i can install. [19:27] what does it mean in aptitude when i do a search and on the leftmost column it says: "iB" or "pB" ? [19:27] maco,, i have too many partitions for a swap and like the other guy said i can mount a file [19:27] queso: if you are going to install minimal then just install ubuntu-desktop you are wasting your time [19:27] ActionParsnip: I want minimal *install*, not minimal CD [19:27] ActionParsnip: it's a harddisk usb, and the second one i try, i think it's unlikely that they are both broken... it does mount on windows by the way [19:27] someone can help out?

[19:28] bastidrazor okay, thank you for the reply. its been really helpful. [19:28] allo? [19:28] queso: the minimal can install server which adds extra stuff, there is a difference [19:28] Four2zero: best of luck.

[19:37] just expect brute foreces [19:37] magn3ts: vnc is a weak protocol [19:37] magn3ts, i thought you guys said vnc [19:37] ilessthan3ubuntu, Vino is VNC.

[20:45] Does anyone know the right kubuntu system requirements? I've looked it up and there's about 3 different sets of system requirements and I don't know which one is right. [20:45] I just got a 1TB ext HDD and wonder if there is ant progress in Formating it. i.e. compatibility with 'Windows' (uuurgh) and Linux for transfering files. [20:46] verac:?

[20:47] i supose it's less mouse [20:47] mendip: i'd recommend ntfs for sharing files with windows and linux because fat32 doesn't support files over 4gb [20:48] derpyderp: sure. /list should, but it has no flood control and may flood you off. Ask in #freenode if you need other suggestions. [20:48] ok [segfault]_ that went better than expected, i loaded in grub and dropped to root and did passwd command and i changed the pw [20:48] Thank you xangua [20:49] <[segfault]_> eoss: nice, have you setup your groups for your regular account yet?

[20:54] thanks mouse, I've used gparted before. I just don't recall any options for low level formating [20:54] <[segfault]_> dejan_: I don't remember the old civ sound effects, but a couple of them also remind me of Age of Empires sounds.

I've got the login to the ftp server, and i've managed to login to ftp and get to the wp-content folder but i can't chmod it [21:07] lol [21:07] Jasonn, could be your motherboard, hard drive, video card -- hardware related , you can take your hard drive out of the equation by running a live CD or just boot up into your BIOS --- leave your machine running and check the temperature [21:07] ActionParsnip, ill try [21:07] I just got Ubuntu, its my first Unix based OS, and Im playing around with it. [21:07] tucemiux: its not the hard drive, that i know [21:07] Found out about this "IRC" [21:07] battlehands: is it in your menu somewhere or do you have a shortcut to it? [21:07] sjrp: you might need terminal [21:08] Chipzzz, Its in my applications menu [21:08] battlehands: LOL, well, here we dont spam ;) [21:08] Chipzzz, under games [21:08] battlehands: you new to linux? [21:08] Jasonn:i've done it in the terminal, but all I get is permission denied [21:08] sjrp: sudo -i [21:08] Jasonn, yeah... this is my first day [21:08] i have quick question, does intel turboboost work under ubuntu 10.10 [21:08] Jasonn, trying to learn terminal and other stuff [21:08] !yay | battlehands [21:08] battlehands: Glad you made it! :-) [21:08] battlehands: what OS? ubuntu/kubuntu/xubuntu/other? [21:08] Jasonn, check the other culprits, also check the user for paranoia [21:08] ubuntu 10.10 [21:09] ThinkT510, thanks [21:09] battlehands: right click on the menu bar, click 'Edit Menus", find the game, click on 'Properties'... you will find the command line to use [21:09] i have the latest kernel version if it helps [21:09] battlehands: thats pretty good, first thing you should do is play around with the theme [21:09] Jasonn:I use cd to get to the httpdocs folder, and then i typ chmod 755 -R wp-content, doesn't work with or without sudo. [21:09] Jasonn, already done [21:09] anyone have an idea why xmbc is playing my dvd jittery while vlc does do it right ? [21:09] sjrp: so its saved on the CD? You cant edit the contents of a cd ;) [21:10] Jasonn, Im using the "Clear Look" with thick borders [21:10] I've got a question. There's this old computer I've got and when you start it up the fans and lights come on but that's it. It doesn't load the bios or anything. I know the monitor and ram chips work but that's the extent of it. Any ideas what the problem could be? [21:10] in the command line of Ubuntu (the one you get when you press Ctrl + Alt + F1), is it possible to make the text smaller and fit more characters in the screen area? [21:10] Hagar1: could be a lot of things [21:10] Jasonn, The thick border simulate Windows 7, because I think their bars are done really well. [21:10] battlehands: you should try Kubuntu [21:10] battlehands, check my PM [21:10] Jasonn, one OS at a time [21:10] battlehands: the interface is more windows-like [21:10] battlehands: ytou can switch without reinstalling, i mean just the look [21:10] both vlc and movie player do it flawless, with xmbc I think the drive starts and stops for every frame [21:11] Jasonn: Haha, no sorry that wasn't what i ment. I use the command "cd" in the terminal to get to the ftp server that i've mounted, and when I'm in the "httpdocs" folder i try chmod 755 -R wp-content and get permission denied [21:11] Hagar1: i believe its because xbmc is very memory-hungry [21:11] oh [21:11] ok [21:11] mouse: this isn't really the right channel for that question [21:11] Jasonn, I will try that now [21:11] I thought 4Gig was enough [21:11] Hagar1: what video chip? [21:11] <[segfault]_> mouse: yeah, though off-topic...bad video card? try reseating the ram? [21:11] and 512 on the graphics [21:11] Jasonn, Its not in my default list. Do I need to install it? [21:11] Chipzzz, What channel would you suggest? [21:11] Jasonn, err... dl it? [21:12] Hagar1: which chip? [21:12] Chipzzz, it worked! thanks! [21:12] battlehands: sudo apt-get remove ubuntu-desktop, then you will be in terminal-only mode, then type in sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop [21:12] looking just what type it is hold on [21:12] Hagar1: lspci | grep -i vga will tell you [21:12] sjrp: are you logged in as an administaor? I would just try to edit from terminal as root (sudo -i) [21:12] ATI HD 3650, not the best but it should do the trick [21:13] Hagar1: thats plenty, did you install the proprietary driver? [21:13] mouse: maybe #hardware [21:13] [segfault]_, The graphics card is onboard and I reseated the ram. [21:13] battlehands: :) [21:13] WUBI'd Ubuntu 10.10 on Toshiba Satellite Laptop L505D, the pointer will move randomly when more than one fingers touch it, it works normally when only one finger is touching it. [21:13] yes ati drivers are installed and work , at least it works with vlc and movie plater [21:13] player [21:13] <[segfault]_> mouse: maybe #hardware might be a channel to try.. [21:14] Jasonn, will it erase all my files? [21:14] battlehands: if you are afraid of problems, i wouldnt do it, you can probably find an online-guide thats better than me, andyhow the best and fastest option would be to just reinstall the OS - kubuntu is far more windows-looking [21:14] Hagar1: maybe there is a setting in xbmc, ask in their channel, it may help [21:14] erUSUL: is there bug regarding screen brightness? [21:14] battlehands: how many files do you have? I would back them up before trying anything, but it shouldnt [21:14] is it in freenode as well ? [21:15] ActionParsnip, did not work :-( [21:15] battlehands: i find it best practice to keep my files on a seperate partition so all os's i boot into can access them === Hedgy|Away is now known as Hedgehog456 [21:15] ThinkT510: thats a pretty good idea :) [21:15] hello !

[21:45] Ghostboy: sudo apt-get install openSSH [21:45] Jasonn: Thx a lot ! [21:46] Ghostboy: then follow the instructions on the screen, but you might aswell just install the drivers from terminal directly [21:46] jasonn: its case sensitive, so it would be openssh [21:46] (also ghostboy) [21:46] RabbitDaOne: eth0 will be your wired link, wlan0 or ar0 will be your wireless [21:46] right?

(For streaming media from a server) === wingdspur2 is now known as wingdspur [21:57] RabbitDaOne: ping IPADDRESS [21:57] RabbitDaOne: same in all OSes, in a terminal run: ping 8.8.8.8 [21:57] well everything works and now that i have gotten it to work how can i increase the size of the partition i have linux set to "absorb"? [21:58] @ActionParsnip Cool, thanks for that tip. Will get back with results [21:58] ActionParsnip: any alternatives to xbmc for kubuntu? [21:58] i want to try to fix a splash screen hang by "booting with nomodeset xforcevesa acpi=off", like i read here: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1480026&page=4 (bottom), but HOW do i "boot with nomodeset xforcevesa acpi=off" ? thanks ! === webbhorn is now known as wbh [21:59] ctp: try a different plugin? [21:59] Jasonn: moovida maybe [21:59] ActionParsnip: can it strean via HTTP? [22:00] jdeslaur: you mean flash plugin? [22:00] hi [22:00] Jasonn: not sure, if you want to stream, why not just share a folder and access it that way? === viv`d is now known as vivid [22:00] ActionParsnip: because i want to stream, not download then play, because streaming uses much less BW [22:00] @ActionParsnip so when I disconnected the ethernet, my internet connection did the same. So the ping result was "unreachable". Plugged the ethernet in, it started giving me times [22:01] Jasonn: youo dont have to download, the files will simply be accessible, there is no copying process it will just play from the share to RAM [22:02] Jasonn: I might have a solution but it says I need a "xorg.conf" data [22:02] tim167: just press 'e' when your kernel is highlighted in grub during startup and add the options at the kernel line [22:02] Ghostboy: i really dont know what to tell you bud [22:03] ActionParsnip: and how do i do that if all i have is FTP access to the server (its a seedbox) [22:03] ActionParsnip: or can i do something like a mapped network drive/ [22:03] my mousewheel just randomly stopped working [22:03] :( [22:03] Jasonn: Ok then I just try it:) really thx a lot ! :) [22:03] Jasonn: thats fine, you can mount ftp servers in nautilus and then play the files as if they were local data [22:03] how do I restart ubuntu's mouse driver? [22:03] xrdodrx, is it working on and off or it just quit? [22:03] Jasonn: exactly! [22:03] coz_, It just quit [22:03] Jasonn: you are complicating too much [22:04] sudo dpkg-reconfigure mouse [22:04] i installed UCK (Ubuntu Customization Kit) and i was building a distro that came with a lot of packages, but then, while synaptic was minimized and doing nothing, my entire computer froze and i had to force a shutdown, so how can i reopen that "session" or all of those files with UCK again so i can continue modifying it and installing packages? [22:04] Swves, inragden om lien dost ib? [22:04] ActionParsnip: thanks :) [22:04] has anybody got latest version of ubuntu :(,,, my download is to slow,, anybody would mind sending me through team viewer?? , please [22:04] Jasonn: :D [22:04] xrdodrx, I would restart x first to see if it reloads and the right way to do that is ctrl+alt+F1 ... log in then sudo restart gdm [22:04] coz_, /usr/sbin/dpkg-reconfigure: mouse is not installed [22:04] u_me: use torrents, it'll be a lot faster (assuming your provider doesnt strangle torrents) [22:05] Brach vas clantum edo meadis voristen...? [22:05] xrdodrx, is this a usb mouse? [22:05] coz_, yes [22:05] @ActionParsnip so when I disconnected the ethernet, my internet connection did the same. So the ping result was "unreachable". Plugged the ethernet in, it started giving me times [22:05] sudo apt-get --fix-missing calcfreak89 [22:05] xrdodrx, pull the plug on the mouse and plug it back in [22:05] olskolirc - that's not my problem, i need to re-open UCK and load the files it made so i can continue working with them [22:05] xrdodrx, and / or try another usb port [22:06] coz_, replugging fixed it thanks :D [22:06] xrdodrx, cool [22:06] RabbitDaOne: ok then run: sudo lshw -C network and websearch for the product line for the wireless adapter [22:06] can't believe I didn't think of that u,u [22:06] hey [22:07] hello? [22:07] does anyone know what irc channel UCK has if it has one? [22:07] hello natolee1992 [22:07] yo? [22:07] natolee1992, hi [22:07] hey [22:07] someone is here [22:07] Yay, more debootstrap fun! So I'm pxebooting a client node via NFS on 10.10 and all works well, the debbootstrapped installation comes up no issue until I apt-get install ubuntu-desktop -- everything installs fine, but upon reboot, the kernel loads (from nfs pxe store), and when the gdm screen is supposed to come up, nothing -- black screen blinking cursor. Anyone have any ideas? [22:07] hey guys [22:07] natolee1992, actually, 1568 people are "here" :) [22:08] have a question: is it known when OO.org 3.3 will be released in Ubuntu [22:08] ActionParsnip: how do i manage how much of the CPU is being used as my fans are running really loud [22:08] no.... [22:08] janik: no [22:08] ActionParsnip, i am using torrent [22:08] janik: check OO.org [22:08] bt its slow again :( [22:08] does UCK (Ubuntu Customization Kit) have an IRC channel? [22:08] Jasonn: did already [22:08] janik, yes and no...!11.04 is coming out in april with libreoffice :) [22:08] janik: well we dont know either [22:09] janik: http://www.unixmen.com/software/1477-openofficeorg-330-final-released [22:09] Jasonn: just wanted the easy way using apt-get ;-) [22:09] ahah [22:09] janik, It's unlikely OO.org will see an update before April [22:09] anyone use screenlets? they're a pain in the a$$... [22:09] wow there should be a chatting irc channel for ubuntu and one for help and support since it's annoying when u need some help on something and people are chatting about random new stuff coming out [22:09] !language | natolee1992 [22:09] natolee1992: Please watch your language and topic to help keep this channel family-friendly, polite, and professional. [22:09] !attitude | calcfreak89 [22:09] calcfreak89: The people here are volunteers, your attitude should reflect that. Answers are not always available. See http://wiki.ubuntu.com/IRC/Guidelines [22:09] So Ubuntu is migrating to LibeOFfice? [22:09] calcfreak89: there is, its called #ubuntu-offtopic [22:09] janik, yes :D [22:10] sorry. [22:10] calcfreak89: yes, #ubuntu-offtopic is for chatter [22:10] Jasonn - ok good, now a lot of people should move from here to there [22:10] xrdodrx: its hardly called showing attitude when someone sais something is "annoying" he was just asking [22:10] anyone know of a good converter for music [22:11] Jasonn, yeah, sorry, I forgot the exact text of the factoid :) [22:11] yeah, hold on.. [22:11] xrdodrx: ahah ;) [22:11] janik: libreoffice is default in natty [22:11] ok so nobody knows if UCK has an irc channel? i guess i will ask again here. [22:11] ActionParsnip: btw thank for the very good link on installing ooo trough PPA [22:12] i installed UCK (Ubuntu Customization Kit) and i was building a distro that came with a lot of packages, but then, while synaptic was minimized and doing nothing, my entire computer froze and i had to force a shutdown, so how can i reopen that "session" or all of those files with UCK again so i can continue modifying it and installing packages? [22:12] janik: np bro [22:12] calcfreak89, let me check [22:12] ActionParsnip: is there also a way to install Libre right now on 10.10? [22:12] @ActionParsnip so when I disconnected the ethernet, my internet connection did the same. So the ping result was "unreachable". Plugged the ethernet in, it started giving me times [22:12] coz_ - ty [22:12] Hey how can I adjust my micrphone level? [22:12] calcfreak89: please do not double post as it floods the channel and is ver annoing and prevents some people from getting help [22:12] erUSUL: hey thx for your help f inally i was able to use hibernate again i just unnistalled uswsusp reboot the system and install it again [22:13] RabbitDaOne: I replied to the same text earlier? [22:13] Jasonn - im just trying to get help [22:13] ActionParsnip: is there somewhere i can check/manage the CPU usage [22:13] Jasonn: you can use top [22:13] @ActionParsnip Im sorry I did not see it, could you post it again please? [22:13] bin_bash: System->Preferences->Sound->Input [22:13] anyone know of a good converter for music? [22:13] ActionParsnip: is that a prog or command? [22:14] ActionParsnip: nvm, i got it [22:14] @pv2depoty http://bit.ly/5DMBOe [22:14] calcfreak89, I am not seeing on specifically for UCK which I am assuming is Ubuntu Customization Kit ...yes? [22:15] @rabbitdaone thanks [22:15] coz_ - yes, that's the program, and oh so i guess there is no IRC channel for it, so i will try to get help for it here [22:15] @pv2depoty My pleasure [22:15] calcfreak89, sounds reasonable :) [22:16] well i can't double post but i said my problem a few minutes ago so it's like way back up there [22:18] calcfreak89: we understand, but you have to understand that for one, this is all community-run, so there is no actual staff members here, ALSO, that program is either a thrird party program that is not even supported by ubuntu, or is a program that we have little to no experience with, so you can understand our frustration. [22:18] calcfreak89: scratch that last part (after the comma) === Tabstar is now known as Tabmow [22:19] How do you change your nickname? [22:19] evening all, i have a quick question, i have just installed ubuntu 10.10 from wubi on a computer, so i dualboot windows and ubuntu, but when i restart the computer and get to the boot screen i cant choose ubuntu, my keyboard just wont go down to ubuntu, it is stuck on windows, the keyboard works fine when i enter windows, do you guys know what the error is? [22:20] When I try to make my mic 100%, as soon as I talk, it food back down to "unamplified 100%" how can I change this [22:20] Jasonn - there is no point in wasting time telling other people that u can't help them, just don't say anything... === Guest28512 is now known as Cryptanalyst === Chosi is now known as Choseh === Choseh is now known as Chosi [22:21] hey [22:21] How do I connect to a WEP-e [22:21] can someone help me with reloading ubuntu 10.4? [22:21] scarleo: when I try to adjust my mic all the way to the top, it defaults back to "unamplified 100%" is there a way to ficx that [22:21] secure wi-fi over Iwconfig [22:21] guest28512 /nick newnickname [22:21] nick1345: what part do you need help with? [22:21] bin_bash: Is it muted? (tick box) [22:21] i had it installed [22:21] No [22:22] and was trying to put on a graphics driver witch left me with a black screen always [22:22] scarleo: No, it's not [22:22] nick1345: so now you just need to install it properly? === cafuego_ is now known as cafuego [22:22] now when i try to reload from boot on disk it asks for a password to get to the boot menu [22:23] chmod: cannot access `minecraft.jar': No such file or directory [22:23] witch i dont have any password for [22:23] ls lists it as there and i can rm it and re dl it with same effect [22:23] what is going on :( [22:23] nick1345: dont know how to help you there mate [22:23] its there anyway to bypass that [22:23] ? [22:23] bin_bash: Have you checked alsamixer? run alsamixer in terminal. Make sure it's not muted there [22:23] is there any interactive program for learning shell scripting (or any other language?) [22:23] scarleo: It's not muted, it's just very low for the other party [22:23] or is there a way to undo the faulty driver? [22:24] nick1345: a BIOS password? open it up and wiggle out the CMOS battery (looks like a watch battery) to reset it, then put the battery back [22:24] Screw you guys, I'm going home. [22:24] bin_bash: tell them to turn up the volume ;) No seriously, I'm not sure why that might be [22:24] where woud that be loacated? [22:24] and iv never had it ask for the password before..... [22:24] xfgghjlsine: can you pastebin the output of ls and then the chmod [22:25] nick1345: regular booting normally doesnt require bios password. editing the bios settings or changing what the boot device is can if someone set a password (they're optional) [22:25] nick1345, it is on the motherboard so you will have to open up the case to find it. [22:25] its not my computer so im not gettting into opening it up [22:25] its at my friends bedroom studio === richard is now known as Guest28927 [22:26] any clue of when it would have asked to set the bios password? === Guest28927 is now known as richardfullmer [22:26] nick1345, that is the only way to reset the bios, without flashing a new bios onto the chip [22:27] rcmaehl: xfgghjlsine join #freehelp [22:27] xfgghjlsine: ^^^ [22:27] bin_bash: Where is the bar on Input volume? All the way to the right? [22:28] i have to discharge myself before opening the computer right? [22:28] anything else to prevent killing it? [22:28] ciao a tutti [22:28] nick1345, just keep touching the metal of the case [22:29] and its a watch batter looking thing on the motherboard? [22:29] is there usually a cover? [22:29] nick1345, no not usually [22:29] hi, I'm having trouble getting a Realtek 2560 pci chipset in a Packard Bell EasyNote R1984 laptop. The card is detected and ubuntu loads both rt2500pci and rt2x00pci.. But I can't connect to any networks. I can't scan for networks either. It just says "disconnected" in the network-indicator [22:29] ok [22:29] Is anyone else getting red videos on youtube? [22:30] nick1345, some of the older motherboards will have a different battery that is soldered on but then they have a switch to reset the cmos [22:30] hi there [22:30] hello nameless === bob__ is now known as Bob3 [22:30] i detected some weird stuff on my ubuntu regarding the ls command : http://pastebin.com/T4YFJvWM [22:30] filthpig: what does iwconfig say? [22:30] can someone explain me if it's a normal behavior on ubuntu ? can someone try please ? [22:31] So I'm the only one that is getting red videos on youtube? [22:31] Chipzzz, hang on, I'll pastebin it [22:31] malx_poogee_loo: Yes. [22:31] malx_poogee_loo: not me but there was some one else in her (and one more in #xubuntu) who have reported that effect after an update [22:31] filthpig: ty [22:31] nameless`: what's wierd aboutthat? [22:31] okay [22:31] Thanks === Aranel_ is now known as Aranel [22:32] I'll try back in a day or 2 to see if there is a solution [22:32] malx_poogee_loo: I'm also getting red videos on some of them [22:32] Chipzzz, http://pastebin.com/mXBnyHNE I only took the relevant dev. [22:32] i need the nvidia 32 bit video drivers for wine, (10.10) and can't seem to find them in the repository. should I do a manual nvidia driver install, or how can i locate the 32bit versions? [22:33] nameless`: /sys is a virtual filesystem, and doesn't follow POSIX semantics in many ways. Think of it more as an API than a normal filesystem. [22:33] nameless', yeah it is doing that on mine too [22:33] nameless', it is normal [22:33] Jordan_U: Cryptanalyst yeah, but on my debian it has a "normal" at least "expected" behavior [22:34] tesseracter: install nvidia-current [22:34] ActionParsnip, thats what Im on. [22:34] filthpig: how about dmesg | grep wlan [22:34] scarleo: got an URL (for a red video) to check? [22:34] nameless', you have to remember that ubuntu is not debian even though it is debian based. they have changed some things [22:34] Cryptanalyst: yeah but why is that ? [22:34] ActionParsnip, so that has the 32bit drivers attached? [22:35] Cryptanalyst: can you explain me why it has such a strange behavior ? [22:35] Chipzzz, that only lists my usb device that I'm using to get online now.. aka wlan1.. nothing about wlan0 [22:35] tesseracter: yes that'll match yoursystems arch [22:35] ifup wlan0 says "unknown device, ignoring wlan0=wlan0" [22:35] nameless', in the block folder everything is simlinks [22:36] hi, anyone that are good on reinstalling ubuntu and keep hdd partitions? [22:36] drc: I'll check. Is it possible yo see history on YT? [22:36] ActionParsnip, thats not what i said i needed. i need the 32 bit drivers, even though i am on 64bit, because wine uses the 32 bit version. [22:36] tesseracter: why do you believe this? [22:37] does anyone no anything at all about LTSP? [22:37] scyther_: It's not hard. What do you need? [22:37] scarleo: dunno, but I don't think so, maybe the browser (if you haven't cleared it out since) [22:37] tesseracter: wine manages 32bitness for you. If you use 64bit OS it will run fine [22:37] BillyBob2: best to just ask the channel your actual question (on a single line) [22:37] jrib, because thats what appdb.winehq said. [22:37] filthpig: does lspci see it? [22:37] tesseracter: link? [22:37] Hey [22:37] hey [22:37] jrib: http://appdb.winehq.org/objectManager.php?sClass=version&iId=9901 Team Fortress 2 doesn't start at all or crashes on start [22:37] Chipzzz, yep: 00:06.0 Network controller: RaLink RT2500 802.11g (rev 01) [22:37] dockmanager is conflicting with Faenza apparently [22:38] "trying to overwrite '/usr/share/dockmanager/data/skype_skypeme.svg', which is also in package faenza-icon-theme 0.8 [22:38] No apport report written because MaxReports is reached already" [22:38] what can i do :S [22:38] nameless', the simlink that sda is pointing to is /sys/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:1f.2/host0/target0:0:0/0:0:0:0/block/sda and that is the only thing in that folder [22:38] I created a init script and added it with update-rd.d but when i restart the pc ps aux tells me that this process is running: "/bin/sh /etc/rc2.d/S20myscript start" [22:38] why is screenlets so hard to get working? [22:38] Cryptanalyst: yeah i saw that [22:38] any ideas [22:39] tesseracter: I've played tf2 in the past on 64bit ubuntu, just using the drivers jockey provides automatically [22:39] OK, i installed an LTSP client environment, but itsays 'please select LTSP environment in a dialog box, and there's nothing in it. what do i do? [22:39] nameless', so when you are in the sda folder and do ls ../ it reads the folder directly above it but when you cd ../ it follows the simlink back [22:39] jrib, jockey? [22:40] tesseracter: "Additional Drivers" [22:40] tesseracter: the repositories [22:40] nameless', I don't know about how debian is different [22:40] Cryptanalyst: yeah that's what i didn't get [22:40] Cryptanalyst: ls ../ and cd ../ must (probably) use the same env variable no ? [22:40] if I add a second monitor to my ubuntu system, how does that interact with the four desktop pattern? [22:40] drc: sorry, can't find it right now. I'll get back to you if I find one [22:40] nameless', and I don't have a debian system to test it on [22:41] filthpig: but it's missing from "lsmod | grep rt25", even when the usb device is unplugged? [22:41] Cryptanalyst: on my debian ls ../ and cd ../ & ls have the same behavior [22:41] jrib, yeah, i've got it working at home, but i use the drivers straight from the nvidia binary. [22:41] i'll keep working at it. [22:41] Chipzzz, can't check that now as I'll be disconnected :o [22:41] :p [22:41] scarleo: ok...I must have looked at 25 videos (randomly picked) and could not reproduce the red/violet...sorry [22:41] Silivrenion, both monitor will change when you select a different desktop [22:42] nameless', I understand, I just can't explain why because I can't test anything on a debian [22:42] drc: seems like people had problems with quicktime where videos lost a channel [22:42] drc: http://www.google.com/support/forum/p/youtube/thread?tid=577b40c88cde317d&hl=en [22:42] Cryptanalyst: ok, well, thank you for you explanations :) [22:42] nameless', no problem [22:42] filthpig: you may have to do that to find out why it is't seen... [22:42] hello, i formatted a usb stick to fat32 using gparted, had to mount it manually because it didn't mount automatically, and now i can not copy any files to it, do i have to change its ownership ? [22:43] Hi! If i move my root partition, will GRUB have problems finding it? [22:43] Chipzzz, hm, check this: http://pastebin.com/jJesiL4t My USB stick uses the rt73, so it doesn't appear with grep rt25.. [22:43] tim167, most likely you do [22:43] scarleo: the common factor seems to be quicktime...waiting, out. [22:44] Chipzzz, seems liek it has some IRQ issues.. How do I do what it tells me to try? :) [22:44] What do I need to do to move my root partition? [22:44] if my Grub folder under ubuntu install is empty what can i do about that? under the Disks folder? [22:44] plz ho speak franch [22:44] i need help for nagios [22:44] Cryptanalyst: i need to make it into a bootable, but even with gksudo usb-creator-gtk i get 'installation failed' and it quits, any ideas ? [22:45] tim167, why are you using fat32 if you need to make it bootable? [22:46] Cryptanalyst: i don't know, just trying anything i can think of to make it work with usb-creator-gtk [22:46] filthpig: you could try adding "pci=biosirq" to your grub boot line [22:46] Cryptanalyst: but already it's not normal that it doesn't automatically mount [22:47] tim167, I would try using either ext3 or ext4 [22:47] Chipzzz, okay, thanks! I'll write it down and take a look at it tomorrow. Gotta run ;) ktnxbye! [22:47] hello everyone! how do i move my root partition so that there will be no problems with grub? [22:47] filthpig: gl :) [22:48] tim167, those are the linux filesystems and are much more reliable especially for what you are wanting to do [22:48] does no-one know anything about LTSP?! [22:49] can someone give point me towards the ubuntu site that'd deal with setting up a domain name for my vps. [22:49] i'm not exactly sure where i'm looking here. setting up dns, hostnames, etc.. not sure. [22:50] BillyBob2: what you need to know about LTSP? [22:50] Cryptanalyst: ok, formatted it to ext3 now, still not mounting... [22:51] elnomade: i need to get it working === dave is now known as Guest67466 === Guest67466 is now known as __Serp [22:55] hello everyone! how do i move my root partition so that there will be no problems with grub? === kn100 is now known as Guest41969 [22:56] could anyone please tell me, how to move my root partition [22:57] CommanderCool: I don't think it will be a trivial exercise. You will have to move root without it being mounted. So, you will have to be running some other OS copy. [22:57] could grab a bopy of gparted lice cd [22:57] *live [22:57] ratcheer: will there be a problem with grub finding the partition? [22:58] CommanderCool: You would have to chroot to it and then grub-install. [22:59] ratcheer: from within the live cd? [22:59] CommanderCool: Yes [22:59] i tries 8 different usb disks, they all mount fine on windows, they don't mount on ubuntu, what gives ? [22:59] ratcheer: ok, thank you [23:00] CommanderCool: You're welcome. [23:00] <__yhvh__> hey trying to add the new unity scroll bars globally, http://www.markshuttleworth.com/archives/615#comment-345948 , what now? [23:01] anyone doing 10GigE w/ ubuntu lucid ? [23:01] lotreck: doing what? [23:01] 10gbit ethernet [23:01] is there any software that mimics the functionality of the Windows program "Acer Grid-Vista"? [23:02] lotreck: 10GBit/s you mean. whats the problem with it? [23:02] are there drivers for Intel X520 10GigE cards ? [23:02] id asume so [23:02] Is there a way to regnerate http.conf? accidentally overwrote it [23:03] <__yhvh__> Ahtenus: aren't there skeletons in /etc/default ? [23:03] lotreck: google says the kernel from 10.04 and above can handle that card [23:03] whats the prefered linux ftp application ? [23:03] ssh is the preferred FTP program.

[23:08] don't listen to these nay-sayers, if you're jus tmoving files around, fuggin send it through the "File Transfer Protocol", it's easy [23:08] but if you care about security, SSH it. [23:08] What is the difference between package and package-common? [23:08] Nighthawk``: if you have ssh-access you have also scp access [23:09] Nighthawk``: remeber, when using ftp you are sending your login in plaintext! [23:09] mgolisch: yeah, did that. doesn't really say anything...just shows the connect, disconnect and mail-id, but never gets to the line with the to= and status=sent [23:09] i dont have ssh access just ftp, so for ftp what are u recomend me ? and for ssh access what u recomend me ?

[23:51] hi folks, does anyone else have the problem of not being able to set a proper background image in gnome terminal? Somehow the 'darkness' setting makes the image transparent. Slider to the left means image pretty much fully transparent, slider to the right means image replaced by background color. Any idea? thx [23:51] battlehands: so what's the issue now? [23:52] whoa... lshw is intense :) [23:52] ilovefairuz, http://paste.ubuntu.com/575238 [23:53] Nighthawk``: in system > administration > additional hardware drivers, do you see an entry for your card? [23:53] ilovefairuz, in that dir: /mnt there is /Magnificent which is what I want, but there is also /Magnificnt which I suppose was created on accident [23:53] ilovefairuz, I would like to remove that [23:54] What would be the easiest way to get a basic ubuntu install, with no GUI/bloat? I get tired of how slow it gets, so I'd rather add the WM and such myself. [23:54] Lasivian: -v makes linux programs verbose ;) [23:54] cd [23:54] ilovefairuz, http://i52.tinypic.com/10qmn3d.png [23:55] i'm trying to install untuntu now and am at the Who are you screen. the loading bar says Nready when you are..." but isn't completely filled. i can't press forward yet my info is filled out [23:55] Chipzzz: I just dumped it to a file :) more than happy to sort it out that way, heh [23:55] battlehands: alt + f2, gksudo rmdir Magnificnt [23:55] battlehands: sorry, gksudo rmdir /mnt/Magnificnt [23:55] IanWizard: I installed ubuntu server and only selected the base during tasksel and it did just boots to a shell [23:55] ilovefairuz, I figured it out. thanks] [23:55] IanWizard: i think the alternatecd allows for a minimal installation [23:55] Chipzzz: We Got Sound! Thx [23:55] !minimal | IanWizard [23:55] IanWizard: The Minimal CD image is very small in size, and it downloads most packages from the Internet during installation, allowing you to select only those you want (the installer is like the one on the !Alternate CD). See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/MinimalCD [23:55] howdy everyone [23:56] Priswell: you're very welcome :) [23:56] mgolisch: ahh, but we just got that nice new GUI on the installer, much nicer. Oh well, it'd be worth it in the long run. [23:56] ilovefairuz, now a conceptual question: I created this partition to store files in that I could access from any OS that I booted into from this computer. If I put files in this folder, is that all I need to do? [23:56] battlehands: yeap [23:56] ilovefairuz, awesome. Thanks for all of your help. [23:56] foward button why you no let me click youu [23:56] battlehands: you're welcome [23:57] IanWizard: i dont think the desktop install cd allows for instalaltion of a cmdline only system [23:57] ilovefairuz: ok, I'll use that then. Thanks :D [23:57] mgolisch: yeah, I've never know it too, (not without some fancy stuff in the tty :P [23:58] Crayboff: make the username all lower-case [23:58] Nighthawk``: as far as i know, no better drivers are available [23:58] Is there a way to delete all the files in a folder (through the terminal) but leave the folder? [23:58] IanWizard: in the minimal install you download everything and it takes forever...works though [23:58] battlehands: yes but be very careful: sudo rm -fr /path/to/folder/* [23:58] extraclassic: that's what I'm going to do, thanks. [23:59] I want to disable the Gnome-keyring [23:59] extraclassic: not if you have a good internet connection [23:59] but when installing libpam-keyring, it gets replaced by synaptic with gnome-keyring
