[00:50] <anna> Hello.
[00:53] <anna> Can someone recommend a client other then rhythmbox for streaming radio to my linux?
[00:54] <anna> Would use songbird but it has been discontinued.
[00:54] <JackyAlcine> Banshee.
[00:54] <dj_ribale> ^I agree
[00:55] <anna> Would Guayadeque stream radio or does it just do local music?
[00:55] <dj_ribale> Clementine is good too if u like amarok based player
[01:04] <anna> Would Guayadeque stream radio or does it just do local music?
[01:06] <aveilleux> anna: Since it uses the gstreamer framework, I assume it can capture online streams. Let me do some digging.
[01:07] <aveilleux> anna: http://guayadeque.org/forums/index.php?p=/page/using_radio
[01:12] <anna> Sweet thank you Aveilleux. Also Alphur I switched off Linux Mint to Maverick Meericat Ubuntu and had no install or boot issues. Thank you for the advice, it was much appreciated.
[01:13] <alphur> anna, that's great, hope you get things working the way you want
[01:14] <anna> I got my printer working for the first time ever on linux. I have always had such a hard time with these HP printers and Linux.
[01:14] <aveilleux> anna: Simply install the hplip package and you should be all set
[01:19] <anna> How do you guys do the red text responses like that?
[01:20] <aveilleux> anna: I place your name somewhere in my response and it highlights you. If you said "aveilleux" it would notify for me and draw my attention.
[01:20] <aveilleux> example anna
[01:25] <charlie-tca> My turn to ask questions. Can anyone/someone tell me how to install from usb flash drives?
[01:26] <aveilleux> charlie-tca: install Ubuntu?
[01:26] <charlie-tca> yes
[01:26] <charlie-tca> I can't seem to get it to work from a usb drive
[01:26] <aveilleux> charlie-tca: Have you tried using unetbootin?
[01:26] <charlie-tca> no
[01:27] <charlie-tca> I want to be able to use these drives I wasted money on
[01:27] <aveilleux> charlie-tca: You can always reformat the drive after you're finished. There's nothing stopping you from that.
[01:32] <JackyAlcine> charlie-tca, I'm actually running off a USB stick at the moment, but either the Startup Disk Utility in Ubuntu or UNetbootin should work.
[03:07] <yax51> how do I remove a program that is install in /sys?
[03:14] <duanedesign> hello yax51
[03:14] <yax51> duanedesign: hello
[03:15] <duanedesign> yax51: what are you trying to remove?
[03:15] <iggy19> yax51: if you installed it with a package manager (synaptic or apt, say) you should be able to remove it with the same.
[03:15] <yax51> asusg50oled daemon, and no I didn't install it with such...
[03:17] <iggy19> yax51: stumped me
[03:17] <iggy19> ;-)
[03:17] <holstein> how was it installed yax51 ?
[03:19] <duanedesign> yax51: did you use: make, make install?
[03:19] <yax51> holstein: downloaded the .tgz from asusg50oled.sf.net, unzipped it, and ran make, make install
[03:19] <yax51> duanedesign: yes
[03:20] <holstein> is there uninstall info in the readme?
[03:20] <holstein> i guess if you track down where everything went, and remove it...
[03:22] <iggy19> yax51: you are now seeing the power and glory of using a package manager
[03:22] <duanedesign> yax51: if you still have the directory where you installed from try
[03:22] <duanedesign> make uninstall
[03:22] <duanedesign> if the make file does not have uninstall, maybe try the read me file
[03:24] <duanedesign> instead of make install, use checkinstall. Then the package manager will be aware of the program and make removal easier
[03:29] <yax51> ok, checkinstall asks for a decription
[03:30] <yax51> so I write a decription for the package, and I get this message: /usr/bin/checkinstall: line 1198: description-pak: No such file or directory
[03:31] <duanedesign> ahh.
[03:31] <duanedesign> you need to install the checkinstall package
[03:31] <yax51> iggy19: amen!!
[03:31] <duanedesign> sudo apt-get install checkinstall
[03:31] <yax51> duanedesign: I did, sudo apt-get install checkinstall
[03:32] <duanedesign> oh i see, it is getting an error in the checkinstall file
[03:33] <yax51> The package documentation directory ./doc-pak does not exist.
[03:33] <yax51> Should I create a default set of package docs?  [y]:
[03:35] <duanedesign> it is supposed to create a  description-pak file
[03:35] <duanedesign> if one does not exist
[03:36] <duanedesign> did you call checkinstall with sudo?
[03:36] <yax51> yes, get the same message
[03:37] <yax51> so I would cd to the directory I want removed correct?
[03:37] <yax51> then checkinstall?
[03:37] <duanedesign> no
[03:37] <yax51> ok
[03:37] <duanedesign> you would use checkinstall inplace of make install when installing
[03:38] <duanedesign> that would make the package manager aware of the package and make uninstalling easier
[03:38] <duanedesign> not sure it would help now. More of a for future reference
[03:38] <holstein> not something you can run recursively though
[03:39] <duanedesign> yax51: do you have the original folder you downloaded?
[03:39] <yax51> yes
[03:40] <duanedesign> if you cd into that directory and run  'sudo make uninstall'
[03:40] <duanedesign> does anything happen?
[03:40] <yax51> make: *** No rule to make target `uninstall'.  Stop.
[03:42] <duanedesign> yeah they did not include an uninstall rule
[03:43] <duanedesign> yax51: might see if the read me has any suggestions for removal
[03:43] <holstein> but you should be able to look and see what all went where
[03:43] <holstein> and rm it al
[03:43] <holstein> l
[03:45] <yax51> whats the command for remove directory?
[03:46] <iggy19> yax51: rmdir
[03:46] <yax51> thanks
[03:47] <iggy19> be careful not to trash things your system needs!
[03:47] <holstein> yeah, i would look around for a file that says what went where
[03:47] <yax51> of course! just trying to remove the asus oled saemon
[03:59] <iggy19> yax51: someone wiser than myself may be able to make the following command more useful (this one is going to produce a ton of output), but maybe it'll yield something useful.  It would be great to be able to sort the output by date, which would let you nail all the files changed at the time you ran make install.  Commands to try: "sudo ls / -alR |grep 2011-03-10 >/home/<uname>/Desktop/ChangedFiles.txt" should give you a file of all f
[04:01] <yax51> thanks I'll look into into it, but I may not be that wiser someone, as it is I barely know what I'm doing
[04:02] <yax51> as for the removal of the program I gave up, I was really just trying to so a fresh install. and revert all changes back to default...but it's not that important
[04:04] <yax51> and my sister made cheesecake!
[04:05] <iggy19> yax51: sounds like all is good in the world
[04:06] <yax51> yup, now just need ot learn to modify a .class file, change the command so that my oled display can show my GPU temp ;)
[04:22] <yax51> ok so that problem I was having earlier?
[04:22] <yax51> I think I figured out what was going on
[04:23] <yax51> what I thought was part of the asusg50oled program, turns out is the driver for my asus oled display...
[04:24] <yax51> fancy me trying to remove the driver for the very thing I am trying to work with!
[04:29] <iggy19> I figured asusg50oled *was* your display driver.  Just since it had the phrase "oled" in it.
[04:38] <yax51> ok heres another question is there a way to run Nvidia X server from the terminal?
[04:40] <bioterror> startx?
[04:51] <JackyAlcine> I usually ran, xinit.
[04:52] <bioterror> and dont you forget to add something to .xinitrc
[04:52] <yax51> basically what I am trying to do is run the GPU temp in Nvidia X server within the terminal
[04:53] <yax51> I could use nvclock, but nvclock doesn't want to work with my oled daemon...although it should
[05:10] <JackyAlcine> What is Ground Control used for?
[08:30] <yax51_> anyone know anything about remote desktop?
[08:31] <yax51_> I found a tutorial to connect via windows, and it works, however I should be able to control my desktop right?
[08:31] <bioterror> I would suggest VNC
[08:32] <yax51_> VNC?
[08:32] <bioterror> !vnc | yax51_
[08:32] <ubot2> yax51_: VNC is a protocol for remote desktop. https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VNCOverSSH describes how to use it securely.  It works best over fast connections, otherwise look at !FreeNX
[08:39] <yax51_> cool thanks!
[08:51] <yax51_> I havent tried !freeNX yet, but I was able to connect via my windows machine, but I have no control, like I should, and the screen is all messed up
[09:56] <yax51> woot woot!!
[09:56] <yax51> got it figured out!!
[09:57] <yax51> now I can access my computer remotely!!
[09:59] <bioterror> good
[10:05] <MrChrisDruif> Awesomeness
[13:23] <johnny77> I'm having trouble with chromium and flashplugin. I installed flashplugin-nonfree. If I play a video in YouTude it's b/w and messed up a little. But if I pop out the video in it's own window it plays corectly. Any ideas?
[13:24] <bioterror> johnny77, is your system 64bit?
[13:25] <johnny77> bioterror: nope.
[13:26] <bioterror> I have to say weird
[13:27] <johnny77> bioterror: I can get it to play so it's not a big deal, but I thought if someone had an idea.
[13:27] <bioterror> is it just youtube?
[13:28] <bioterror> how about vimeo?
[13:28] <johnny77> i'll check.
[13:28] <bioterror> http://vimeo.com/20736222
[13:28] <bioterror> that video for example ;)
[13:30] <johnny77> bioterror: it's a little choppy.
[13:31] <bioterror> choppy?
[13:32] <johnny77> it's not a smooth movie. Is it supposed to just from frame to frame?
[13:33] <bioterror> nope
[13:33] <bioterror> what does top say for your CPU usage?-)
[13:34] <johnny77> bioterror: it was almost 90%
[13:34] <bioterror> hoho
[13:34] <bioterror> you need faster computer for vimeo ;)
[13:34] <bioterror> but vimeo had colors
[13:35] <johnny77> yup.
[13:37] <duanedesign> johnny77: might look at lovinglinux's blog http://www.webgapps.org/flash/issues-and-solutions
[13:38] <johnny77> ok, thanks. I gotta run for a few bbl.
[13:38] <duanedesign> o/
[14:33] <Dangr_> I listen to ESPN radio via their streaming Flash player... but it crashes after about 15 minutes... any suggestions to make Flash not suck so much?
[14:34] <Dangr_> Right now I'm using FireFox as my primary browser... I haven't tried Chrome at all... don't know if that makes a difference
[14:34] <holstein> cant hurt to try it
[14:34] <holstein> sudo apt-get install chromium-browser
[14:56] <Dangr_> holstein: Sorry wandered off my computer. I have chrome already, just haven't loaded the page in it :P I'll give that a try now.
[14:57] <Dangr_> holstein: isn't chromium the developer builds and Chrome the official release? I get the terminology confused since I don't give much thought to Chromium typically
[14:57] <bioterror> !gnomepanel
[14:57] <ubot2> Factoid 'gnomepanel' not found
[14:57] <bioterror> :(
[14:57] <holstein> Dangr_: chromium is in the repos
[14:58] <holstein> makes it easy to install
[14:58] <Dangr_> holstein: Ahhhh OK I see, cool thanks didn't know that
[14:58] <holstein> not that installing chrome is really all that hard
[14:58] <Dangr_> lol true
[14:58] <bioterror> chrome has flash and spyware bundles, chromium doesnt
[14:58] <bioterror> bundled
[14:59] <bioterror> those are the differences
[14:59] <holstein> yeah, theres an extra package for chromium
[14:59] <holstein> for mp3 playback and all that
[14:59] <Dangr_> bioterror: Hm, didn't know that either. Would that make Chrome a bit better at handing, lets say, Flash as opposed to Firefox?
[14:59] <bioterror> no
[14:59] <bioterror> it just makes G happy
[14:59] <Dangr_> hahaha
[15:00] <bioterror> as they know what kind og ads to show you
[15:00] <bioterror> of
[15:02] <bioterror> once you insta.. chromium and all needed files by using apt-get, you dont have to worry about things
[15:03] <Dangr_> That's good to know too. I just use flash for YouTube and ESPN Radio when I can't get to a TV so I don't use it a whole lot
[15:03]  * bioterror is a typomaster 2k
[15:03] <Dangr_> lol
[15:04] <bioterror> yeah, flashs only function for me is also mvids from youtube and some akward swf/flv files ;)
[15:04] <Dangr_> :-D
[15:04] <bioterror> but
[15:04] <bioterror> youtube.com/html5
[15:05] <bioterror> you dont need flash with chroimium for youtube
[15:05] <Dangr_> ahhh yeah, I haven't been by there in a while, I should check that out again
[15:05] <Dangr_> I also noticed Apple.com has been using HTML5 for a lot of things now
[15:05] <Dangr_> that have that "Flash" feel :P
[15:09] <johnny77> bioterror: I just tried to opt-in on the html5 for youtube.com after disabling the flash plugin and it says a plugin is missing.
[15:11] <bioterror> hmmm
[15:11] <bioterror> ill check when I get to home, or to my parents later
[15:11] <bioterror> daughter decided we should spend our weekend at my folks
[15:12] <bioterror> so ill be a little less in here answering to your trivial problems
[15:12] <Dangr_> lol
[15:13] <JoeMaverickSett> johnny77: sudo apt-get install chromium-codecs-ffmpeg-extra
[15:16] <JoeMaverickSett> johnny77: that is for chromium-browser btw.
[15:19] <johnny77> JoeMaverickSett: thanks! At some point I'll be able to help as often as I myself need help. :)
[15:20] <JoeMaverickSett> johnny77: :)
[15:20] <JoeMaverickSett> rock on! ;)
[15:56] <bioterror> johnny77, html5 worked for me
[15:59] <bioterror> johnny77, http://ricecows.org/youtube-html5.png
[15:59] <johnny77> bioterror: i got it working now. thanks
[16:06] <bioterror> good
[18:07] <jerk_> hey there..... I just need to know whether it's normal for a lot of options to show up on my boot menu every time update my ubuntu 10.04?
[18:08] <charlie-tca> jerk_: if there was a kernel update, yes
[18:08] <charlie-tca> it will add two entries each time
[18:09] <jerk_> yeah.. that's it
[18:09] <jerk_> one is marked "recovery mode"
[18:10] <jerk_> but the thing is... now there are about six or seven of these... and can I trim down the list some?
[18:13] <wolfpack> yes you can
[18:14] <wolfpack> jerk_: There are 2 ways wither remove the old kernels completely or to just remove the entries
[18:14] <wolfpack> either*
[18:15] <jerk_> okay..
[18:15] <jerk_> could you please tell me how to do both?
[18:21] <wolfpack> jerk_: For first option 1) Open synaptic manager and check the old kernel headers and mark for complete removal. Please take care while choosing the kernel
[18:21] <wolfpack> jerk_: For more help check this : http://www.liberiangeek.net/2010/07/remove-kernel-ubuntu-10-04-lucid-lynx-grub/
[18:22] <jerk_> will do
[18:22] <jerk_> thanks
[21:45] <bioterror> gunndawg, long time no see

[21:59] <gunndawg> DarkwingDuck, what do you use ?
[22:06] <DarkwingDuck> Kubuntu
[22:09] <gunndawg> oh ok
[22:10] <gunndawg> I need to get back into the swing of things here on linux and get my development going again
[22:10] <gunndawg> I kinda got sucked into Starcraft 2 :(
[22:11] <DarkwingDuck> :)
[22:13] <gunndawg> great game btw ;)
[22:15] <gunndawg> oops, wrong button
