[04:17] <mahgiaz47> is ubuntu 11.04 Alpha 3 the latest?
[04:18] <aveilleux> mahgiaz47: I believe so. The latest testing version, anyway. The latest stable is 10.10.
[04:20] <mahgiaz47> ya i accidently upgraded, and quite honestly some features are great but others are not that good
[04:21] <aveilleux> mahgiaz47: How did you accidentally upgrade to 11.04? It's not in the normal upgrade path yet.
[04:22] <mahgiaz47> through terminal, it wasnt actually accidentally but i was just a little curious, then i just ended up upgrading
[04:23] <mahgiaz47> "upgrade-manager -d" in terminal
[04:43] <nlsthzn> I seem unable to force apt-get to install packages it is saying it is holding back... I read the man page but none of the switches seem to do the trick
[04:44] <holstein> i usually try aptitude in that scenario
[04:44] <nlsthzn> holstein: me too... forgot :p (got to go install it then :D)

[05:58] <bioterror> Tue13:51*<halpbatman> has anyone else tried setting up ssh server?
[05:58] <bioterror> did you install it?
[05:58] <halpbatman> i have ssh server set up
[05:58] <halpbatman> as well as tonido
[06:04] <halpbatman> bioterror: the problem i was having was the the dsl modem at home goes through a VoIP adaptor and then to a router
[06:05] <halpbatman> bioterror: so the port forwarding was bit tricky

[07:06] <beachbuddah> hi all - anybody got any special knowledge about cd/dvd drives
[07:06] <beachbuddah> ?
[07:10] <yax51> does anyone know anything about the asus g50 oled daemon?
[07:39] <yax51> I recently installed Ubuntu 10.10, and now I can't get my mic working, or headphone jack to work
[07:40] <yax51> I've gone through the comprehensive sound guide in the forums, but that didn't help
[07:43] <zkriesse> yax51: What type of mic/headphone?
[07:43] <zkriesse> USB or regular plug in
[07:44] <yax51> internal mic, regular headphone jack
[07:45] <yax51> http://paste.ubuntu.com/577716/
[07:45] <yax51> I think it might be the drivers, my card is actually a Realtek
[07:45] <zkriesse> Good man for using pastebin!
[07:45] <zkriesse> :D
[07:46] <zkriesse> Hmm
[07:46] <zkriesse> I can do some quick research
[07:46] <yax51> this isn;t my first rodeo :p
[07:46] <zkriesse> Ah ok
[07:46] <yax51> I've actually just re-installed it, I had all of it working at one point, but cant remember how I did, it was a long time ago
[07:47] <zkriesse> Oh ok
[07:52] <yax51> zkriesse: I ended up putting the line "options snd-hda-intel model=g71v" in the file "/etc/modprobe.d/alsa.conf" and rebooting. This got my headphone jack working properly on my Asus g50vt-x5. Good luck!
[07:52] <yax51> Thanks, Tinka. It worked for me on Asus g50vt-x6
[07:52] <yax51> I found this in the forums....going to try a reboot
[07:53] <yax51> this does look familiar....
[07:53] <zkriesse> Great
[07:58] <yax51> SWEET!!!
[07:58] <yax51> ok got that going and the mic too
[07:59] <yax51> however with the mic, I can only control it via alsamixer, not in sound preferences at all
[08:02] <zkriesse> Argh
[08:02] <zkriesse> That sucks
[08:03] <yax51> yeah, might need to tweak it a little, but I remember it was really easy, almost too easy, and I know it had to do with the model....
[08:03] <zkriesse> :)
[08:10] <yax51> yay! got it!!
[08:10] <yax51> it WAS the model!
[08:16] <zkriesse> yax51: Awesome
[08:16] <zkriesse> yax51: Lol, not many people come here and then solve their own issues :D
[08:16] <zkriesse> yax51: Maybe you should right a doc on it or improve existing docs
[08:18] <yax51> zkriesse: I know right, but I find just giving voice to the question, and usuing others as a sounding board helps to to look at the problem differently
[08:18] <zkriesse> Indeed
[08:18] <zkriesse> I find that helps...indeed it does.
[08:18] <yax51> zkriesse: mayeb I should just post a new thread on the forums.....or is there another way I should go about doing it
[08:19] <zkriesse> Forums would be ideal
[08:19] <zkriesse> Under the How-To section for sure
[08:28] <yax51> yay my first thread!!
[08:28] <yax51> http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=10539903#post10539903

[08:48] <brandin> can really see just how bad these TN panels are with this.
[08:49] <brandin> much better on the eyes tho.
[12:59] <ray_> I got a some what dumb question
[13:00] <duanedesign> no dumb questions, only answers
[13:00] <duanedesign> :)
[13:00] <ray_> Is there a google free search engine
[13:00] <ray_> I mean
[13:00] <ray_> that searches for things that are only free
[13:00] <ray_> Never mind
[13:01] <ray_> I will ask a different question
[13:01] <ray_> I am a drummer
[13:01] <ray_> and I am looking for free drum samples
[13:02] <duanedesign> there are google search sites that search Ubuntu related stuff
[13:02] <ray_> specifically roto tom samples in wave or what ever format like mp3 ogg whatever can be played through a music player
[13:02] <duanedesign> ohh, you are looking for free (non software) stuff
[13:02] <ray_> Right
[13:02] <ray_> I looked and looked
[13:03] <ray_> it says it's free but then I don't find what I am looking for that it says it has
[13:03] <ray_> like that bing commercial
[13:03] <ray_> anyways I really really like google
[13:03] <ray_> I don't use Bing
[13:04] <ray_> Bing = Microsoft
[13:04] <ray_> Microsoft = scammers, lol
[13:04] <ray_> he he
[13:04] <JoeMaverickSett> http://duckduckgo.com/ ?
[13:04] <ray_> I will check it out
[13:06] <ray_> Part of the problem is I should be limiting what the search is so "free drum samples -loops -tracks" and so forth
[13:08] <JoeMaverickSett> ray_: how about http://soundcloud.com/ ?
[13:10] <ray_> Dang, at this point maybe I should just try to create my own roto tom drum samples. I have roto toms but the middle toms head broke apart from the hoop
[13:11] <ray_> it had drum tracks
[13:11] <ray_> I should try gluing the head back ti itself separate from the hoop of coarse
[13:12] <ray_> I have a garbage mic  though
[13:12] <ray_> computer mic
[13:17] <ray_> hmm, maybe I should shoot for rack tom samples
[13:20] <ray_> I was going to post this though I know you guys must know of it:
[13:20] <ray_> http://www.google.com/linux?hl=en&q=&btnG=Search
[13:23] <ray_> I found this:
[13:23] <ray_> http://www.dooleydrums.com/free_drum_samples.php
[13:23] <ray_> I am going to try it
[13:23] <ray_> nope, I can't no credit card
[13:24] <ray_> well I am going to just go, thank you guys for trying

[13:50] <KinkyPinkie> Hey! I just chaged desktoptheme, and the minimize/maximize/close buttons on the windows now apear on the upper right hand side. is it any way I can hack the code to  move them back, but keep the rest of the theme?
[13:52] <ray_> I am not sure, I was looking for how to move them to the right:
[13:53] <ray_> https://help.ubuntu.com/10.04/config-desktop/C/window-button-order.html
[13:53] <ray_> however, I like clearlooks so it didn't matter to me in the end but I understand
[13:54] <KinkyPinkie> thank you :)
[13:54] <ray_> http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1617977
[13:55] <ray_> no problem
[13:55] <KinkyPinkie> I heard that in future versions they are going to make app-panel in the top right corner, so I woulnt want to get used to having them there again :p
[13:55] <ray_> I want more features for themes
[13:56] <ray_> I want to change the purple to black
[13:56] <ray_> with white as the Ubuntu and the Ubuntu logo
[13:56] <KinkyPinkie> yea
[13:57] <ray_> or have the ability with ease to be able to change it to any color like blue or slightly darker blue or some color
[13:57] <KinkyPinkie> i got this theme today http://kde-look.org/content/show.php?action=content&content=87004 apart from messing up sytaxhilighting in eclipse i totally love it
[13:57] <ray_> gloss whould be a nice added feature for any color any kind of theme
[13:58] <ray_> With icon themes I just drag and drop them into themes under apprearance
[13:58] <KinkyPinkie> mm
[13:59] <ray_> I didn't know this but in order to get Emerald themes to work I had to have compiz fusion
[13:59] <ray_> just sharing some info
[14:00] <ray_> It makes installing icon themes a breeze, in fact I don't know how to install icon themes otherwise
[14:01] <KinkyPinkie> compizfuison looks a bit facier than what i managed to do with compizconfig (source google pictures) am I right?
[14:01] <ray_> what does facier mean?
[14:02] <KinkyPinkie> http://media.techeblog.com/images/ubuntulinux.jpg
[14:02] <KinkyPinkie> and round cube
[14:02] <ray_> I found compiz fusion to be too much of a resource hog so I stopped usingit
[14:02] <KinkyPinkie> i just managed to get mine to turn fullscreen
[14:02] <bioterror> horrible compiz cube
[14:03] <bioterror> I've never seen the benefit of that
[14:03] <bioterror> except it looks cool in the eyes of 14 year old kid
[14:03] <KinkyPinkie> haha true
[14:03] <bioterror> you spin it around two itmes and ditch it
[14:04] <KinkyPinkie> still I like to play around with everything I can possibly play with :p
[14:04] <ray_> Ya, I can control which workspace I am in without compiz
[14:04] <ray_> how
[14:04] <ray_> howeve
[14:04] <bioterror> I have better use for my graphics card ;)
[14:05] <ray_> I used compiz fusion to display a movie on my TV screen through an s-video cord and a video game on my monitor
[14:05] <KinkyPinkie> I dont atm :/
[14:05] <ray_> I agree bioterror
[14:05] <ray_> :)
[14:06] <ray_> I can get twin view without it and  don't need independent screens, and there are workspaces for that if needed anyway
[14:07] <ray_> Themes
[14:12] <ray_> I am looking for an icon theme like the brave blue theme for splash, this is a wallpaper which looks like it:
[14:12] <ray_> http://imagebin.org/141968
[14:14] <ray_> oops I meant GDM theme
[14:16] <ray_> I guess it's not on gnome look anymore
[14:16] <ray_> I still have a copy
[14:17] <ray_> bye
[14:17] <ray_> I need to chill
[14:18] <ray_> o/
[14:45] <jsk_> I have a problem with grub. it is loading a grub file I can not find any where
[14:47] <bioterror> what
[14:47] <jsk_> I have tried grubedit but that edits a grub file but when I reboot the system boot on to the grub I can not find
[14:48] <bioterror> I'm not following
[14:48] <jsk_> Sorry
[14:48] <jsk_> My problem is the grub loader
[14:49] <raju> have u failed on grub loading
[14:49] <raju> jsk_:
[14:50] <jsk_> No, the system boot from a grub file I can not find to edit
[14:50] <raju> are you doing it from root
[14:51] <jsk_> No. I can not get root privilege
[14:51] <raju> then you can't edit it
[14:52] <raju> u should be root ....
[14:52] <jsk_> I am using Grubedit
[14:53] <jsk_> Grugedit finds a grub file and edits it but it is not the grub file the system is using
[14:53] <raju> jsk_: http://grumpymole.blogspot.com/2007/05/ubuntu-how-to-edit-grub-boot-parameters.html
[14:54] <jsk_> Thanks I will give it a try now
[14:58] <szczur> menu.lst is no longer in use since ubuntu 9.10 . The correct path will be /boot/grub/grub.cfg
[14:58] <jsk_> so I need to edit grub.cfg ?
[14:59] <raju> szczur:  but we need to be root
[14:59] <raju> jsk_: Yes
[14:59] <szczur> yes, he needs to be root
[14:59] <jsk_> can I use gksudo
[15:00] <raju> szczur:  but he have not root privis
[15:00] <szczur> sudo gedit /boot/grub/grub.cfg should give him one
[15:00] <raju> no root privil's
[15:01] <jsk_> I will try now and come back to you.
[15:01] <raju> jsk_: u should be root
[15:01] <szczur> you can become root with sudo su
[15:01] <szczur> then he can edit anything
[15:03] <bioterror> szczur, I would suggest just sudo
[15:03] <raju> szczur:
[15:03] <raju> - jsk_, 20:21 -
[15:03] <raju> No. I can not get root privilege
[15:03] <bioterror> !sudo | jsk_
[15:03] <ubot2> jsk_: sudo is a command to run command-line programs with superuser privileges ("root") (also see !cli). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for more information. For graphical applications see !gksu (GNOME, Xfce), or !kdesudo (KDE). If you're unable to execute commands with sudo see: http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/fixsudo
[15:05] <jsk_> I have looked at Grub.cfg and it said do not edit this file?
[15:06] <bioterror> unless you know what you're editing
[15:06] <bioterror> can you tell us what you're trying to do
[15:06] <raju> jsk_:  its for security
[15:07] <raju> jsk_:  what you wanna fo ?
[15:07] <bioterror> grub is something not to mess with, becouse then you come where complaining you cant access your ubuntu :D
[15:08] <jsk_> My motherboard packed up so I am using an old one and when I boot it up I could not get anything
[15:09] <raju> is it a good one jsk_
[15:09] <jsk_> I have ubuntu 9 and 10 = windows xp and 2 HD
[15:09] <raju> good
[15:10] <jsk_> I can get to 1 HD and no windows and my wife OU work in on windows
[15:11] <jsk_> OU = Open University
[15:11] <bioterror> are you trying to say that you want to boot to windows?
[15:12] <jsk_> yes
[15:12] <bioterror> sudo apt-get install os-prober
[15:12] <bioterror> sudo os-prober
[15:12] <bioterror> sudo grub-update
[15:12] <bioterror> sudo reboot
[15:12] <jsk_> I see
[15:13] <jsk_> I will be back. thank you all
[15:23] <jsk_> I tried the os-prober and I get E: Invalid operation
[15:26] <jsk_> could I change the grub.cfg for a copy a file I know I has the right list
[15:27] <bioterror> yes
[15:27] <jsk_> OK.
[15:28] <jsk_> I have nothing more to lose.
[15:29] <bioterror> make copy of your current grub.cfg
[15:30] <jsk_> is this chat line open for what some might call really stupid questions
[15:30] <jsk_> I have 2 copys
[15:34] <jsk_> I have to keep going back to windows because I can not get some apps to work or they load and I can not find them
[15:38] <jsk_> I have a Velleman K8055 USB interface board. I down loaded the files and installed it but can not find where.
[15:38] <johnny77> jsk_: What apps are you having trouble with?
[15:39] <jsk_> johnny77_ the main one is the K8055 board
[15:40] <johnny77> jsk_: I'm not familiar with that applcation. What does it do?
[15:42] <jsk_> johnny77_ it is an experiment board for connecting the computer to the out side world
[15:43] <jsk_> I am using it for a MIDI controller
[15:44] <jsk_> If I could controll it with Gambas as I do with Visual Studio on windows that would make my world complete.
[15:46] <johnny77> jsk_: I'm not sure what you've tried and honestly, I'me not sure how much I can help you. I did find this http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1660136
[15:48] <jsk_> I did not see that one. thanks
[15:49] <johnny77> jsk_: How bout this one? http://gambaslinux.eg2.fr/articles.php?lng=en&pg=289
[15:50] <jsk_> johnny77_That looks good too. I will go and try changing the grub.cfg file and get my wife up for work.
[15:51] <jsk_> Chat to you all later. thanks once again
[15:51] <johnny77> jsk_: I'm sorry that I can't help you more... just out of my area of knowledge. But hang around there are a lot of smart people here. maybe try again later.

[22:18] <yax51> hello, does anyone know anything about nvclock?
[22:49] <yax51> I am trying to install nvclock, and when I go through the installation process it says that it needs xext
[22:50] <yax51> so I go to synaptic and search for xext and it finds x11proto-xext-dev so I installed that
[22:51] <yax51> but when I go back to the installation it still says that xext is missing
[22:51] <yax51> am I missing a step here somewhere to install xext?
[22:53] <johnny77> yax51: how are you installing nvclock?
[22:54] <yax51> johnny77: according to the install doc, running autogen.sh, then configure
[22:56] <johnny77> yax51: I just tried to install nvclock and it installed with no problem and not requiring anything else. What install doc are you refering to?
[22:56] <yax51> but when I get to the configure portion its checking for xext and I get the error message "xext required for nvcontrol support"
[22:57] <yax51> install
[22:57] <yax51> the basic installation directions
[22:58] <yax51> would you be able to walk me through what you did? maybe I am doing something wrong
[22:59] <johnny77> I'm not sure where you are getting the install directions. But I just typed in the terminal sudo apt-get install nvclock
[23:01] <johnny77> yax51: does this help any? http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=175436
[23:04] <johnny77> yax51: I would try to download it with the command I gave you, then configure as it says in the link.

[23:07] <yax51> which version are you running? maybe the newest one doesn't like me?
[23:08] <johnny77> I'm not running nvclock. I just was trying to recreate the error you were getting by trying to install.
[23:08] <johnny77> yax51: where did you get your install instructions?
[23:09] <yax51> from the nvclock0.8b4 package
[23:09] <yax51> make
[23:10] <davidl_> think I may have figured it out...  http://goo.gl/on4H4  does this look right?
[23:12] <yax51> http://paste.ubuntu.com/578081/
[23:12] <johnny77> yax51: I noticed there was a IRC channel #nvclock Maybe they can help you better over there.
