| alexMocanu | hi everybody | 14:15 |
| alexMocanu | simple question about how memory is allocated when running your program... | 14:16 |
| alexMocanu | so suppose you have a local variable int i; somewhere in your source code. when you compile it, will there by allocated memory for it even though you may not use that variable at all in your program? | 14:16 |
| tsimpson | alexMocanu: usually, yes | 14:30 |
| alexMocanu | tsimpson well what are the exceptions then? | 14:31 |
| tsimpson | well, the compiler _may_ detect that it's never used and get rid of it, but it may not | 14:31 |
| tsimpson | you could use -Wunused or -Wunused-variable when compiling to get warning about that kind of thing | 14:32 |
| alexMocanu | ok, cheers tsimpson! | 14:57 |
| xyclo | evilduanedesign,?? | 14:57 |
| xyclo | haha i like that | 14:57 |
| xyclo | is that an non-helpful duanedesign?? | 14:57 |
| xyclo | a | 14:57 |
| xyclo | Question, evilduanedesign: About fglrx, if you remember our chat the other day, would these Gentoo instrucitions work with Ubuntu | 14:59 |
| xyclo | http://en.gentoo-wiki.com/wiki/Lenovo_ThinkPad_T400 | 14:59 |
| xyclo | ... | 15:06 |

| xyclo | ... | 15:16 |
| bioterror | sudo apt-get install fglrx | 15:17 |
| bioterror | sudo Xorg -configure | 15:17 |
| bioterror | sudo mv xorg.conf.new /etc/X11/xorg.conf | 15:17 |
| bioterror | sudo reboot | 15:17 |
| bioterror | actually | 15:20 |
| bioterror | ubuntu has that driver thingie in the menu | 15:20 |
| bioterror | I dunno what that's called as I'm not running vanilla 'buntu | 15:20 |
| JoeMaverickSett | (on the panel) System > Administration > Additional Drivers | 15:21 |
| xyclo | thanks bioterror | 15:26 |
| xyclo | it is not that I don't know how to do it | 15:26 |
| xyclo | it does not work | 15:27 |
| xyclo | we had a long back and forth with duanedesign the other day | 15:27 |
| xyclo | we tried lots of things, and ended looking at bug reports... | 15:28 |
| bioterror | which ati card you have? | 15:28 |
| bioterror | I have 4350 and no problems with radeonhd and catalyst | 15:29 |
| xyclo | mobility radeon hd3400 | 15:29 |
| xyclo | lenovo t400 | 15:29 |
| xyclo | let's see the catalyst... | 15:29 |
| bioterror | what's wrong with the radeonhd? | 15:29 |
| xyclo | It is installed | 15:29 |
| xyclo | but I cannot activate it | 15:29 |
| xyclo | it conflicts with the kernel | 15:30 |
| xyclo | hm | 15:30 |
| xyclo | Catalyst? How do I check? I think I installed 11.2 | 15:30 |
| xyclo | oh! | 15:31 |
| xyclo | It might have worked this time... | 15:31 |
| xyclo | I'll be back after restart | 15:31 |
| xyclo | Thanks! | 15:31 |
| xyclo | Hi again | 15:44 |
| xyclo | fglrx | 15:44 |
| xyclo | is working | 15:44 |
| xyclo | great! | 15:44 |
| xyclo | Bad thing is that it works with the generic kernel, but not the rt one | 15:44 |
| xyclo | I need the rt one for low latency + no xruns with my FW audio interface... | 15:45 |
| xyclo | I guess I can use video intensive apps with generic and audio with rt, when I need them... | 15:46 |
| xyclo | Thanks | 15:46 |
| holstein | xyclo: try -lowlatency | 15:48 |
| holstein | i assume you are in lucid? | 15:49 |
| xyclo | hi. holstein | 15:53 |
| xyclo | I just switched (back) to Maverick | 15:53 |
| xyclo | You know why? | 15:54 |
| xyclo | the torrent link to 10.04 64bit is broken... | 15:54 |
| xyclo | So I got lazy... | 15:54 |
| xyclo | Anyway, | 15:54 |
| xyclo | I'll give the lowlatency a try | 15:55 |
| holstein | what -rt kernel are you using then? | 15:55 |
| xyclo | It did not seem to work nearly as well as rt. | 15:55 |
| xyclo | As I said, I just switched back | 15:55 |
| holstein | you want https://launchpad.net/~abogani/+archive/ppa | 15:55 |
| xyclo | I have not even installed rt | 15:55 |
| xyclo | yep | 15:55 |
| holstein | why do you need it? | 15:55 |
| holstein | realtime synths? | 15:55 |
| xyclo | xruns go down dramatically | 15:55 |
| holstein | right | 15:55 |
| xyclo | yep | 15:55 |
| holstein | OK | 15:56 |
| xyclo | yoshimi, remember? | 15:56 |
| holstein | :) | 15:56 |
| holstein | now i do | 15:56 |
| xyclo | but I'll see | 15:56 |
| xyclo | I have more ram now | 15:56 |
| xyclo | and 64bit | 15:56 |
| xyclo | although same sound card | 15:56 |
| xyclo | firewire ESI-PRO Quatafire | 15:56 |
| xyclo | works great | 15:56 |
| holstein | cool | 15:56 |
| holstein | i found in natty | 15:56 |
| xyclo | but lots of xruns... | 15:56 |
| xyclo | hm... | 15:56 |
| xyclo | what? | 15:56 |
| holstein | -lowlatency performed as well as -realtime | 15:56 |
| xyclo | aha! | 15:57 |
| holstein | with my presonus firepod | 15:57 |
| xyclo | I am so anxious waiting for Natty | 15:57 |
| holstein | xyclo: what chipset do you have? | 15:57 |
| xyclo | chipset... | 15:57 |
| xyclo | let's see | 15:57 |
| holstein | run lspci | 15:57 |
| holstein | if you *dont* have a texas instruments chipset | 15:57 |
| holstein | you can stop beating your head against the wall | 15:57 |
| holstein | and just get something with TI chip | 15:57 |
| xyclo | Intel Corp Mobile 4? | 15:58 |
| xyclo | Does that make sense? | 15:59 |
| xyclo | holstein, something with TI chip? | 15:59 |
| holstein | yup | 15:59 |
| holstein | firewire TI chipset | 16:00 |
| holstein | thats what you want | 16:00 |
| holstein | for example | 16:00 |
| holstein | when i run modest JACK settings | 16:00 |
| holstein | with -generic kernel | 16:00 |
| holstein | say, something in the 20+ms range | 16:00 |
| holstein | i dont get xruns | 16:00 |
| holstein | unless im opening and closing big apps | 16:00 |
| holstein | like ardou | 16:00 |
| holstein | r | 16:00 |
| xyclo | right | 16:00 |
| xyclo | nice! | 16:00 |
| holstein | but not idle xruns | 16:00 |
| holstein | BUT | 16:00 |
| holstein | with a funky chipset | 16:01 |
| holstein | you'll just get them | 16:01 |
| holstein | nothing you can do about it really | 16:01 |
| xyclo | I see... | 16:01 |
| xyclo | Well, for my next interface purchase I'll remember that! | 16:01 |
| xyclo | Hey, what system do you run? | 16:02 |
| xyclo | I mean Ubuntu, Arch... | 16:02 |
| xyclo | ubuntu-beginners... duh? | 16:02 |
| holstein | ubuntu on most everything | 16:02 |
| xyclo | ok | 16:02 |
| xyclo | hey, holstein, the low latency I get from abogani as well? for Maverick?? | 16:20 |
| holstein | yeah | 16:20 |
| holstein | you can add that PPA anyways | 16:20 |
| holstein | AFAIK | 16:20 |
| xyclo | yes, I have it | 16:20 |
| holstein | i just DL'd the .debs | 16:20 |
| xyclo | but for Maverick? | 16:20 |
| webjadmin | Wow, I missed xChat. :D | 16:20 |
| holstein | xyclo: thats the way i did it | 16:21 |
| xyclo | ok | 16:21 |
| xyclo | you also run 10.10? | 16:21 |
| holstein | and i was told you can just add the lucid or natty one | 16:21 |
| xyclo | aha | 16:21 |
| === webjadmin is now known as JackyAlcine | ||
| xyclo | I thought I ran into some trouble originally, to instell rt maybe, and that's why I switched to 10.04 | 16:21 |
| xyclo | install | 16:21 |
| holstein | maybe | 16:22 |
| xyclo | we'll see... | 16:22 |
| holstein | i assure you its your chipset though | 16:22 |
| holstein | ask Strayfolk | 16:22 |
| holstein | next time you see 'em in #ubuntustudio | 16:22 |
| holstein | had a ricoh chip set | 16:23 |
| holstein | was trying all kinds of things | 16:23 |
| holstein | rtirq | 16:23 |
| holstein | kernels | 16:23 |
| holstein | you name it | 16:23 |
| holstein | TI chip set is what did it :) | 16:23 |
| xyclo | Actually with rt I get 0(0) xruns throughout | 16:24 |
| xyclo | using 48kHz, ~10ms | 16:24 |
| xyclo | 4ins, 8outs | 16:24 |
| xyclo | so, not bad | 16:25 |
| JackyAlcine | Hey, is Snort good for security? | 16:25 |
| JackyAlcine | Or is there a better one? | 16:25 |
| holstein | xyclo: 10ms is find | 16:25 |
| xyclo | but rt has quite a few limitations I see | 16:25 |
| holstein | fine* | 16:25 |
| xyclo | fine, yes | 16:25 |
| xyclo | no complaints | 16:25 |
| holstein | if you need lower latency | 16:25 |
| xyclo | just rt... | 16:25 |
| holstein | move closer to your speakers ;) | 16:25 |
| xyclo | hahah | 16:25 |
| holstein | i can get 1.2 stable | 16:26 |
| holstein | but i hardly ever do that | 16:26 |

| Eriam | i need a lot of help from a patient person :) | 16:31 |
| Eriam | can i find such a person here ? | 16:31 |
| xyclo | plenty, Eriam | 16:31 |
| Eriam | good :D | 16:31 |
| Eriam | thank god | 16:31 |
| Eriam | so guys... my problem goes like this | 16:31 |
| xyclo | thank the admins better :) | 16:32 |
| Eriam | windows user here .. so ... | 16:32 |
| Eriam | i want to install LAMP ... on a ubuntu 10.10 desktop ... not server cause im used to GUI + i dont have experience with the linux command lines at all | 16:33 |
| Eriam | all the sites i found that say how to install apache and the rest .. tell me that i just have to use sudo apt-get install apache2 for example | 16:33 |
| oCean | Eriam: as i tried to point out, there is an easy way: use the 'tasksel' command | 16:34 |
| Eriam | but when execute the command ... it says it cannot find the thing ... | 16:34 |
| oCean | Eriam: tasksel is a tool that installs multiple related packages as a co-ordinated "task" onto your system | 16:34 |
| JoeMaverickSett | Eriam: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/9030439/InstallingALAMPServer.pdf that pdf shows you how :) | 16:34 |
| Eriam | is tasksel a basic application in a desktop version of ubuntu or do i use synaptic to bring it ? | 16:35 |
| JoeMaverickSett | !tasksel | 16:35 |
| oCean | Eriam: first, you have to install it: "sudo apt-get install tasksel" | 16:35 |
| oCean | after that, "sudo tasksel install lamp-server" will do it all for you | 16:35 |
| Eriam | well ... im gonna try that after the update module applies all the modifications ... | 16:36 |
| Eriam | I must sound like a real moron to u guys :)) | 16:36 |
| JoeMaverickSett | Eriam: that pdf was from a ubuntu-classroom session. | 16:36 |
| JoeMaverickSett | Eriam: no, you don't sound like one. :) | 16:37 |
| oCean | Eriam: but, as ikonia told you in #ubuntu, on https://help.ubuntu.com you'll find a guide that introduces you to the basics of Linux. | 16:37 |
| holstein | Eriam: check out http://www.turnkeylinux.org/lamp | 16:38 |
| holstein | i used to run some of these appliances in virtual box :) | 16:38 |
| Eriam | im gonna look into that too ... it's a lot of info at once | 16:38 |
| oCean | Eriam: yes, a lot of info. I really would recommend installing LAMP using tasksel, (more info https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Tasksel) | 16:40 |
| Eriam | will try that in a moment... installing pidgin on it now ... then im gonna reset the system so as the updates take effect then im gonna try installing LAMP through that | 16:40 |
| Eriam | so ... theoreticaly after i use tasksel and manage to install LAMP , webHTB ... the network shaping tool... it should work ... i guess | 16:44 |
| oCean | Eriam: I'm not sure what your goal is, but if you're a beginner at linux, don't expect everything to work automagically. You really should learn the basics | 16:48 |
| Eriam | yeah i know that ... but im kinda forced to do it ... | 16:50 |
| Eriam | so i got lamp to install | 16:50 |
| Eriam | finaly somtheing works ^^ | 16:50 |
| oCean | !yay | 16:51 |
| Eriam | :)) | 16:55 |
| xyclo | holstein, I cannot even see abogani's ppa in maverick... | 17:01 |

| xyclo | I'll have to wait a month to make pc music (till Natty)... Back to guitar I guess | 17:03 |
| holstein | xyclo: just DL the debs | 17:03 |
| holstein | http://ppa.launchpad.net/abogani/ppa/ubuntu/pool/main/l/ | 17:04 |
| holstein | xyclo: ^^ that worked for me in maverick | 17:04 |
| holstein | i got the idea from http://jackschnippes.freeunix.net/index.php/2010/11/04/lowlatency-kernel-and-realtime-kernel-for-ubuntu-10-10-maverick | 17:05 |
| holstein | xyclo: you added the PPA ? | 17:06 |
| holstein | and ran sudo apt-get update? | 17:06 |
| Eriam | so ... i installed the LAMP ... now how can i start the processes ? | 17:08 |
| oCean | Eriam: most likely they are running. And setup to run after you boot | 17:09 |
| Eriam | how do i start mysql ^^ ? | 17:09 |
| holstein | https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ApacheMySQLPHP | 17:09 |
| holstein | maybe read ^^ | 17:09 |
| xyclo | holstein, yep | 17:11 |
| holstein | xyclo: what about sudo apt-cache search linux-lowlatency ? | 17:11 |
| holstein | no good? | 17:11 |
| xyclo | returns nothing | 17:11 |
| holstein | how did you add the PPA ? | 17:11 |
| xyclo | synaptic. Repos. Other Software | 17:12 |
| holstein | try - sudo apt-add-repository ppa:abogani/ppa | 17:12 |
| xyclo | I can see it in that list, but not under "Origin" in main Synaptic page | 17:13 |
| * xyclo is doing as instructed... | 17:13 | |
| oCean | Eriam: probably running. Type ps axuww | grep sql to check | 17:13 |

| holstein | OK | 17:14 |
| holstein | xyclo: go and get rid of that PPA | 17:15 |
| holstein | if its still in your sources | 17:15 |
| holstein | from before.. | 17:15 |

| holstein | setting up mysql is not trivial | 17:16 |
| holstein | i did it once, to say that i could :) | 17:16 |

| trinikrono | Eriam is it just a test server? | 17:19 |
| Eriam | so i got lamp up .. | 17:21 |
| Eriam | and i wanna use a software that helps me to do some network shaping | 17:21 |
| Eriam | from here https://www.webhtb.ro/how-to/details/?q=3 | 17:21 |
| holstein | Eriam: i would suggest trying what you got | 17:22 |
| holstein | and using those tools as-needed | 17:22 |
| Eriam | yeah but... what tool does ubuntu desktop have for network shaping ? | 17:23 |
| holstein | wondershaper came up | 17:24 |
| holstein | http://ubuntu-snippets.blogspot.com/2008/07/easy-network-traffic-shaping-on-your.html | 17:24 |
| holstein | for me in google | 17:24 |
| holstein | personally, ive never felt like i needed it | 17:25 |
| holstein | Eriam: are you having complaints? | 17:25 |
| holstein | about the traffic to your server? | 17:25 |
| Eriam | im trying to get the server up so as to limit the trafic on a network ... i was told that that tool is newb friendly | 17:26 |
| holstein | well, i would say im not really a noob anymore | 17:27 |
| holstein | and nothing you have asked about so far is something i would consider newb-friendly | 17:27 |
| Eriam | so i figured... | 17:27 |
| holstein | but, why do you need it? | 17:27 |
| Eriam | still ... im gonna continue trying .. | 17:27 |
| Eriam | to limit download/upload speed of usesers on the network im in | 17:28 |
| holstein | Eriam: i use ddwrt on my routers | 17:28 |
| holstein | i think there are som advanced tools like thta in there | 17:28 |
| holstein | Eriam: im not clear on why you need mysql | 17:31 |
| holstein | for packet shaping | 17:31 |
| Eriam | it's a requierment for the application | 17:32 |
| holstein | seems like you can just install wondershaper | 17:32 |
| holstein | per machine | 17:33 |
| Eriam | it's easyer this way than to distribute that on every machine... those use windows | 17:33 |
| Eriam | im gonna have a great headache tonight if i manage 2 to this | 17:35 |
| Eriam | can you suggest a pdf or something like a tutorial on how to use ubuntu ? with commands and thing like that ? like a manual ... not a help file ? | 17:35 |
| holstein | the wikis are helpful | 17:37 |
| holstein | if you know what you are looking for | 17:37 |
| trinikrono | Eriam: did you ever see the server guide | 17:38 |
| holstein | Eriam: hey, http://www.turnkeylinux.org/forum/general/20101116/appliance-mastershaper-network-traffic-shaper | 17:38 |

| xyclo | holstein, question: If i install thr rt kernel, and fglrx does not work with it, it should still work when I run on my current generic kernel, right? | 17:39 |
| holstein | xyclo: should | 17:40 |
| xyclo | nice | 17:40 |
| holstein | like dual booting | 17:40 |
| holstein | in a way | 17:40 |
| holstein | i do that on a laptop | 17:40 |
| holstein | the wifi doesnt work with -realtime | 17:40 |
| xyclo | exactly, it's what I thought | 17:40 |
| holstein | i dont use 3d on my production machine anyways | 17:41 |
| xyclo | really? wifi worked with abogani's rt kernel | 17:41 |
| xyclo | but well... | 17:41 |
| holstein | eh, i dont use networking either | 17:41 |
| holstein | usually * | 17:41 |
| xyclo | haha, what DO you do then... | 17:41 |
| xyclo | Bass, right? | 17:41 |
| holstein | make music :) | 17:41 |
| holstein | well thats my day-job | 17:42 |
| holstein | bass | 17:42 |

| Eriam | can someone tell me how can i install a program that is already downloaded ? | 18:45 |
| Eriam | after it's extracted | 18:45 |
| holstein | Eriam: there should be a readme | 18:46 |
| holstein | it really depends on the program | 18:46 |
| holstein | what its dependancies are and what-not | 18:46 |
| evilduanedesign | Eriam: is the program not available in the repositories? | 18:46 |
| Eriam | no ... so guys ... i came early.er with the problem.. i managed to install all it's dependencies | 18:47 |
| holstein | yeah ^^ apps in the repos are always the best/easiest way to go | 18:47 |
| Eriam | and modified the rc.local file | 18:47 |
| Eriam | meh ... now it tels me that i have 2 go to /var/www | 18:47 |
| Eriam | went there | 18:48 |
| Eriam | and executed the wget command to download the file from the given link | 18:48 |
| Eriam | and it says that the link is not good | 18:48 |
| Eriam | but still i managed 2 download the file with firefox | 18:48 |
| Eriam | problem now is that i cant copy it's contents in var/www from home/username/downloads .... | 18:49 |
| holstein | you have to sudo copy thing into var | 18:50 |
| holstein | probably have to sudo wget thing into var | 18:50 |
| holstein | maybe, cd /var/www | 18:50 |
| holstein | sudo wget whatever | 18:51 |
| Eriam | what does wget do more precisely ? | 18:51 |
| holstein | it gets things | 18:51 |
| holstein | from www | 18:51 |
| holstein | DL's | 18:51 |
| Eriam | and what is the copy comand from a folder to another ? is it something like sudo copy "home/user/ etc/file.x" to "var/www" ? | 18:52 |
| holstein | cp | 18:53 |
| holstein | probably need -R | 18:53 |
| holstein | cp -R | 18:53 |
| holstein | http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=439580 | 18:53 |

| evilduanedesign | xyclo: you got flgrx working? | 18:55 |
| bioterror | evilduanedesign, ofcourse, I was around :D | 18:56 |
| evilduanedesign | lol | 18:57 |
| bioterror | but I dunno what he did :--) | 18:58 |
| evilduanedesign | bioterror: we could not get it to work with the RT kernel for nothing | 18:58 |
| bioterror | mystical realtime | 18:59 |
| holstein | yeah, it wont | 19:01 |
| holstein | AFAIK | 19:01 |
| holstein | theres a patch for the nvidia proprietary drivers | 19:02 |
| holstein | -lowlatency should work fine though | 19:03 |
| holstein | in both ways | 19:03 |
| holstein | decent latency | 19:03 |
| holstein | and 3d :) | 19:03 |
| holstein | testing in natty looks good with the -realtime kernel | 19:04 |
| holstein | hopefully, we generally wont need a -realtime kernel anymore | 19:05 |
| evilduanedesign | holstein: i think the last bug we were at was bug 573748 | 19:08 |
| evilduanedesign | Launchpad bug 573748 in fglrx-installer "[MASTER] fglrx does not build on 2.6.33 kernel and higher" [High,Fix released] https://launchpad.net/bugs/573748 | 19:09 |
| holstein | evilduanedesign: thats not RT specific then right? | 19:09 |
| holstein | *in a couple minutes when that page loads, i'll read for myself ;) | 19:10 |
| evilduanedesign | holstein: actually i think this is it :P | 19:12 |
| evilduanedesign | Launchpad bug 159941 in fglrx-installer "fglrx driver does not work in RT kernel" [High,Fix released] https://launchpad.net/bugs/159941 | 19:13 |
| holstein | sounds about right | 19:13 |
| holstein | no one is maintaining that kernel anyways | 19:13 |
| evilduanedesign | i have too many bugs in my history | 19:13 |
| evilduanedesign | aha | 19:13 |
| holstein | in testing, we are going to go with the -lowlatency | 19:13 |
| holstein | with ubuntustudio | 19:13 |
| holstein | in natty | 19:13 |
| holstein | either via PPA or in the repos | 19:14 |
| holstein | not sure if anyone will maintain a realtime one | 19:14 |
| holstein | hopefully, the -generic one will be suitable by 12.04 or so | 19:15 |
| holstein | that will be awesome :) | 19:15 |
| === JoeSett is now known as JoeMaverickSett | ||
| xyclo | Hey evilduanedesign | 19:20 |
| xyclo | I see you guys had a whole discussion on the issue already | 19:21 |
| xyclo | My take is that it won't work with the rt kernel | 19:21 |
| xyclo | And now, apparently I cannot come back from standby... | 19:22 |
| holstein | xyclo: with the RT kernel? | 19:32 |
| holstein | yeah, that not really what that kernel is about | 19:32 |
| holstein | IF you need to do both, -lowlatency is the way to go | 19:33 |
| MrChrisDruif | Both? Vid and rt? | 19:33 |
| MrChrisDruif | Than -lowlatency I'd guess | 19:34 |
| holstein | MrChrisDruif: both have your cake, and eat it to ;) | 19:34 |
| MrChrisDruif | xD | 19:34 |
| MrChrisDruif | Yammy, cake...I could eat that....even now :P | 19:35 |

| ubuntu42321 | im trying to resize my ubuntu partition and I have an extended and I have ext4 | 19:50 |
| ubuntu42321 | which part is ubuntu on? | 19:50 |
| pleia2 | ext4 | 19:50 |
| ubuntu42321 | ok, now, I'm on a livecd and when I run sudo update-grub2 I get an error. | 19:51 |
| ubuntu42321 | Do I need to chroot in order to run OS-Prober? | 19:51 |
| ubuntu42321 | and update-grub2? | 19:52 |
| pleia2 | what is the error? | 19:52 |
| pleia2 | you can chroot, but it usually finds it | 19:52 |
| ubuntu42321 | ubuntu@ubuntu:~$ sudo update-grub2 | 19:53 |
| ubuntu42321 | /usr/sbin/grub-probe: error: cannot find a device for / (is /dev mounted?). | 19:53 |
| pleia2 | ah | 19:53 |
| ubuntu42321 | mhm :P | 19:53 |
| ubuntu42321 | I have two drives and I'm resizing Ubuntu to run on SDA. I have win7 on SDB so I need to let grub2 know this after the partition is done resizing. | 19:54 |
| ubuntu42321 | Do you know how to do that? | 19:57 |
| xyclo | holstein, I have not tried with the kxstudio rt kernel yet | 20:17 |
| xyclo | I am installing a bunch of other stuff now | 20:17 |
| holstein | xyclo: firewire will probably still require lowlatency or realtime | 20:18 |
| holstein | -generic still has issues in natty with firewire | 20:19 |
| holstein | getting RT privs* | 20:19 |
| MrChrisDruif | privs? | 20:20 |
| xyclo | do you know another ppa for a lowlatency kernel (in Maverick) | 20:20 |
| xyclo | privileges, right? | 20:20 |
| holstein | yeah, whatever you want to call it | 20:20 |

| xyclo | don't know | 20:21 |

| holstein | thats what is loosely proposed | 20:22 |

| MrChrisDruif | Hai Screw :) | 20:51 |
| Screw | how's things here? | 20:53 |
| ubuntu42321 | oh, things are fine. Just resizing my partition | 20:56 |
| ubuntu42321 | I need help chrooting into it though and updating grub2 | 20:56 |
| MrChrisDruif | Screw: Things are well....bit tired | 20:58 |
| Screw | I experienced an interesting thing. I turn off X11 'cause I thought my laptop would be better battery time. However it became warmer. The proprietary ATI driver didn't work on console and didn't put on powersaving mode my graphics card. | 20:59 |
| MrChrisDruif | That's indeed interesting | 20:59 |
| Screw | <ubuntu42321> Did you run out of space? | 21:00 |
| ubuntu42321 | Nope. I got another HDD. | 21:00 |
| ubuntu42321 | I dual-boot 10.10/win7x64 | 21:01 |
| ubuntu42321 | I want sda to have ALL ubuntu and sdb to have ALL windows. | 21:01 |
| ubuntu42321 | before, sda was split in half | 21:01 |
| ubuntu42321 | Its about to be done resizing in two minutes. | 21:01 |
| MrChrisDruif | What is the current set up then ubuntu42321? | 21:01 |
| ubuntu42321 | Now, I need to know how to chroot in and update grub2. | 21:01 |
| ubuntu42321 | Current setup? | 21:02 |
| MrChrisDruif | With partitions and such... | 21:02 |
| ubuntu42321 | SDA will be done resizing in twenty seconds. | 21:02 |
| ubuntu42321 | SDB has win7x64 on it. SDA will have 10.10x64 on it. | 21:03 |
| ubuntu42321 | It's checking for errors now. | 21:03 |
| ubuntu42321 | SDA1+2 -used to- have win7x86 on it, while sda 3+5 had 10.10x64 on it. | 21:04 |
| ubuntu42321 | I deleted sda1+2 and resized sda3 and then sda5 to the rest of the drive. | 21:04 |
| ubuntu42321 | using gparted | 21:04 |
| ubuntu42321 | now, I have sda3 and sda5 as my ubuntu | 21:05 |
| ubuntu42321 | sdb is my win7 | 21:06 |
| MrChrisDruif | root and home? | 21:06 |
| ubuntu42321 | Right now, I need to update grub 2. | 21:06 |
| ubuntu42321 | MrChrisDruif, i dont know if it's seperated into root and home. | 21:06 |
| MrChrisDruif | What are sda3 & 5? Is one swap? | 21:07 |
| ubuntu42321 | one is extended and one is ext4 | 21:07 |
| ubuntu42321 | how do i check if one is swap or not? I dont think I made a swap space... | 21:07 |
| ubuntu42321 | I can provide screenshots or whatever you need me to do. I just want to get this fixed :P | 21:08 |
| MrChrisDruif | Extended is a partition to put multiple partitions on it... | 21:09 |
| MrChrisDruif | *IF* I'm not mistaken | 21:09 |
| ubuntu42321 | Ok. So, do I need to change that? | 21:09 |
| ubuntu42321 | How do I make ubuntu primary on sda? | 21:09 |
| ubuntu42321 | I'm going to just try and reboot. | 21:11 |
| ubuntu42321 | idk what grub is doing or if it changed at all but here we go! | 21:11 |
| RealEyes | ok | 21:16 |
| Screw | Does ubuntu4321 have ubuntu live cd or we can see him tomorrow? :) | 21:20 |
| RealEyes | Screw, I am him. | 21:20 |
| RealEyes | I have livecd | 21:20 |
| RealEyes | The resize worked and I'm able to get into linux no problems. | 21:20 |
| Screw | :) | 21:21 |
| RealEyes | But, look at this pastebin: http://pastebin.com/cwMQaJGK | 21:21 |
| MrChrisDruif | Great to *see* you RealEyes :) | 21:21 |
| RealEyes | ;D | 21:21 |
| RealEyes | os-prober and update-grub2 dont *see* my sdb w/ win7 on it | 21:21 |
| MrChrisDruif | Meh :P | 21:23 |
| RealEyes | haha! So, how do I get all these to play nice together? | 21:24 |
| MrChrisDruif | Ow...*I might know*....<_<" | 21:25 |
| RealEyes | >.>; | 21:25 |
| RealEyes | I might try the way you know. | 21:26 |
| MrChrisDruif | You probably need to fix Windows | 21:26 |
| RealEyes | fix it how? | 21:26 |
| MrChrisDruif | Just grab a Windows installer cd and boot to it...say you want to recover windows... | 21:26 |
| MrChrisDruif | Then back in ubuntu do sudo update-grub(2?) again | 21:26 |
| RealEyes | lmfao | 21:26 |
| MrChrisDruif | What? :-/ | 21:27 |
| RealEyes | uh, yeah, I dont' have a windows CD. | 21:27 |
| MrChrisDruif | xD | 21:27 |
| MrChrisDruif | Lol | 21:27 |
| RealEyes | I have win7 on a usb stick | 21:27 |
| RealEyes | bootable | 21:27 |
| Reaper50435 | can anyone help me setup a brother MFC-490CW printer/scanner | 21:27 |
| RealEyes | MrChrisDruif, you think I should do that? | 21:28 |
| RealEyes | Maybe it's something wrong with the HDD in /sdb | 21:28 |
| RealEyes | it was set up for raid before and I haven't messed with it since. I dont have raid on my pc | 21:29 |
| MrChrisDruif | RealEyes: I'm not really sure, but I think the resizing had borked Windows up a bit.....boot to an installer (CD or USB ;)) of Windows should be able to fix the problem | 21:30 |
| RealEyes | I will try and I shall return with news! | 21:30 |
| Screw | good night | 21:44 |

| MrChrisDruif | Internet Content.....like filter? | 21:58 |
| fredhami | IT lets you prevent you children accessing inapporiate material over the Internet | 21:58 |

| pleia2 | Dan's Guardian is probably the most popular | 21:59 |
| pleia2 | https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DansGuardian | 21:59 |
| fredhami | you can download Dan Guardian from SOftware Center? | 21:59 |
| MrChrisDruif | fredhami: Set up OpenDNS, that way you can filter that content...and get a great speedboost to boot (can be relative that speed boost) | 22:00 |
| pleia2 | fredhami: yes, it's in the software center | 22:00 |
| pleia2 | it takes some configuration though | 22:00 |
| fredhami | WHat is OpenDNS? | 22:01 |
| MrChrisDruif | An alternative to your ISP's DNS servers :) | 22:01 |
| fredhami | Is this available on the SOftware CEnter too? | 22:01 |
| fredhami | and can it filter the content that accessible on the internet | 22:02 |
| MrChrisDruif | http://www.opendns.com/ | 22:02 |
| MrChrisDruif | And you set it to filter that content....and for all PC's at once :) | 22:02 |
| fredhami | where do I setup it up from? | 22:03 |
| MrChrisDruif | It's all explained on the website :) | 22:03 |
| fredhami | www.opendns.com? | 22:03 |
| MrChrisDruif | Yeah, but without the question mark :) | 22:05 |
| fredhami | So I have two options here I can set up Dan Guadian from the SOftware CEnter or set OpenDNS from it website www.opendns.com | 22:05 |
| MrChrisDruif | I think there are more options, but those two are probably tour best shot :) | 22:06 |
| fredhami | thankyou Ill check it out | 22:06 |
| fredhami | i am planning to buy a netbook and install Ubuntu on it and sometimes my kids cans use it and I dont know how to block content on Ubuntu | 22:08 |
| MrChrisDruif | Well, Firefox "might" have some content filtering options, not sure....no need for me.....single with no kids <_<" | 22:13 |
