[00:00] <dgtl> that is such a pain.. i'm spending my freetime with such a mess which should pretty much work out of the box
[00:00] <preecher> is it possible to install winff,devede & imagination and they work? when i try to install devede and imagination i get a message telling me that i have to remove certain libavcodec files (ubuntu 10.10)
[00:00] <DasEi> Duck79: so get it in ver 0.97 or such
[00:00] <Jordan_U> DasEi: Why did you install 8.04 rather than 10.04?
[00:00] <W43372> th0r: The clock on the panel is five hours behind, but when I click on it, it shows the correct time zone, city, and even the correct time, but the clock above it is wrong
[00:00] <DasEi> Jordan_U: I'm helping Duck...
[00:01] <Duck79> DasEi - so do I look for an older version and downloaed and install it on the ubuntu 8.04?
[00:01] <th0r> W43372: there is a hw clock and when you installed linux you probably told it to set the hw clock to local time. Then on bootup the system tries to adjust that time for the local timezone. I think it will fix the problem if you tell ubuntu to set the hw clock to utc
[00:01] <DasEi> Duck79: it's a cd you burn and then boot from it (or use a usb-stick)
[00:01] <W43372> th0r how do I do that?
[00:01] <kimboub> ActionParsnip  when i download somthing my speed conec is near32 ko
[00:01] <Jordan_U> Duck79: Why did you install 8.04 rather than 10.04?
[00:02] <th0r> W43372: not sure....want me to google it for you?
[00:02] <DasEi> Duck79: it autodetects installs of os'es and grub, and also has an repair option
[00:02] <ActionParsnip> kimboub: its a known bug
[00:02] <kimboub> no
[00:02] <W43372> th0r sure, that would be cool.
[00:02] <ActionParsnip> kimboub: no what?
[00:02] <ActionParsnip> kimboub: i'm telling you, it is a bug
[00:02] <kimboub> is not bg
[00:02] <kimboub> bug
[00:03] <kimboub> not bug
[00:03] <Duck79> Dasei - ah got it thanks. Sounds like it would probably be less hassle to just reinstall 8.04 but this time without it's grub. Oh I installed it just for fun + to check out my old graphics card which 8.04 likes alot.
[00:03] <ActionParsnip> kimboub: why is it not a bug? and how?
[00:03] <Guest13942> how can i see in a mobo the chipset used for the cpu?
[00:03] <vivid> Duck79, just read about grub and add mint to menu.lst
[00:03] <th0r> W43372: http://www.google.com/search?client=opera&rls=en&q=set+ubuntu+hw+clock+to+utc&sourceid=opera&ie=utf-8&oe=utf-8&channel=suggest
[00:03] <veilig_abt> I'm trying to install a 2nd video card to get a 3rd monitor to work.  one is ATI and one is nVidia.  if I can see the boot screen (ubuntu w/ the dots underneath) on the new 3rd monitor, but it goes black after that screen - is that indicitive that I should be able to get this working and just my xorg.conf if messed up, or will this not work at all?
[00:03] <vivid> its pretty easy
[00:04] <ActionParsnip> kimboub: i've seen peopledisable acpi to maybe get more speed. It IS a bug, if there wasn't a bug it'd work wouldn't it. Think about it
[00:04] <lusmus> why is wlan0 down in iwlist?
[00:04] <kimboub> because myProvider give 128 ko
[00:05] <Duck79> vivid - yeh have been doing a bit of reading on that - is it difficult to do?
[00:05] <ActionParsnip> kimboub: then shouldnt you hit 128kb?
[00:05] <kimboub> no
[00:06] <ActionParsnip> kimboub: so whats the issue then?
[00:06] <vivid> Duck79, easy stuff, just read about grub legacy
[00:06] <Duck79> vivid -grub legacy?
[00:06] <kimboub> i explain what i want
[00:06] <vivid> grub legacy is what we call the old grub that youve installed
[00:06] <kimboub>  i want to have more then 32 ko simply
[00:07] <kimboub> when i download
[00:07] <Duck79> vivid-ah ok got you. Sure
[00:07] <ActionParsnip> kimboub: there is te bug then, try the      acpi=off    bootoption
[00:07] <LucyIntheSky> how do I run a program via ssh x forward on the server and client simultaneously ?
[00:08] <lusmus> why is wlan0 down?
[00:08] <preecher> does anyone know a version of ubuntu that i can run imagination/devede/winff on without having to remove some of the libvcodec files?
[00:08] <jrib> LucyIntheSky: MAYBE xpra?
[00:09] <ActionParsnip> preecher: they willallact the same, they areexactly the same under the hood
[00:09] <EvilPhoenix> anyone here got experience with PPAs on launchpad, as well as building .debs?  could use some help debugging a .deb package i'm trying to upload to a ppa
[00:09] <jrib> EvilPhoenix: try #ubuntu-packaging or #launchpad
[00:10] <Duck79> vivid + DasEi - thanks for your help. Bye.
[00:10] <kimboub> ActionParsnip i ve configure my router
[00:10] <kimboub> to have fix ip
[00:10] <ActionParsnip> kimboub: that's moot
[00:11] <Guest13942> ok guys, i think i get something here: can i use the p4 3GHz processor present here http://www.asrock.com/mb/overview.asp?Model=P43Twins1600 into this one:
[00:11] <Guest13942> http://support.dell.com/support/edocs/systems/opgx260/en/ug/specs.htm
[00:11] <preecher> ActionParsnip i'm confused--i was using mint which is based on ubuntu i thought and didnt get these warnings---does that mean that i can go ahead and install the programs and they will work like they did in mint?
[00:12] <W43372> th0r: I followed the directions on that link and rebooted and the clock is still wrong
[00:12] <kimboub> ActionParsnip  and i've thing if i could configurate my router for another ip to have more then 32 ko
[00:12] <phoenixsampras> hello,
[00:12] <ActionParsnip> Guest13942: it will take any socket LGA 775
[00:13] <Matr|x> hello
[00:13] <Matr|x> i dont have sound working on ubuntu right now
[00:13] <kimboub> because to surf you must have line phone
[00:13] <Guest13942> ActionParsnip, you mean the mobo i want to put it on has to be 775?
[00:13] <Matr|x> pulseaudio
[00:13] <Matr|x> E: pid.c: Daemon already running.
[00:13] <Matr|x> E: main.c: pa_pid_file_create() failed.
[00:13] <JavitxuNLC> hola
[00:13] <Guest13942> what if it is Intel 845G?
[00:13] <ActionParsnip> preecher: I'd assume so but I've not used mint as its support isn't as large as ubuntu's in community
[00:14] <Matr|x> hello
[00:14] <vivid> Guest13942, those two boards use completely different CPUs, almost nothing in them is compatible between the two
[00:14] <kimboub> ActionParsnip  abecause to surf you must have line phone
[00:14] <ActionParsnip> Guest13942: the asrock is a socket 775 motherboard
[00:15] <preecher> ActionParsnip thanks---i guess its alot easier to see before jumping the gun for another install
[00:15] <bazhang> kimboub, you're not making any sense
[00:15] <ActionParsnip> Matr|x: what is the output of:wget -O alsa-info.sh http://alsa-project.org/alsa-info.sh && bash ./alsa-info.sh
[00:15] <Guest13942> vivid, oh... is it stupid to say Intel 845G is not the LGA 775 socket? or are those things not same function?
[00:15] <vivid> Guest13942, Intel 845G is the chipset on the motherboard, has nothing to do with the cpu socket
[00:16] <MagmaRules> Hi there i was looking for a free solution to manage several ubuntu machines in my network so thata i can control software versions in all of them. is there a solution for this?
[00:16] <vivid> the socket on the second board isnt mentioned, but i can gurantee you an old P4 will not be LGA775
[00:16] <bazhang> Guest13942, ##hardware ,as thats offtopic here
[00:16] <ActionParsnip> MagmaRules: use ssh
[00:16] <Matr|x> ActionParsnip http://www.alsa-project.org/db/?f=bea2f495d1ddd9a4ce047fb36fe6a1beedd310f0
[00:16] <Guest13942> bazhang, i know and i am sorry, but i can t connect to hardware and i don t know how to do it...
[00:17]  * Fireblasto is away: Auto-away after 30 mins idle (gone at 12th Mar, 00:17:16)
[00:17] <MagmaRules> ActionParsnip: Ssh?
[00:17] <kimboub> ActionParsnip  have you understand
[00:17] <Guest13942> vivid, thank you this enlightens me!! so there is a possibility :)
[00:17] <vivid> Guest13942, short answer is No
[00:17] <bazhang> Guest13942, sure you can.  #freenode for help. please stop asking here

[00:18] <ActionParsnip> MagmaRules: secure shell
[00:18] <kimboub> ActionParsnip  yes

[00:18] <Guest13942> ok guys, bazhang, i stop it here. vivid, i misread: thanks for your help, it  s a pity ot won t work. buy guys and thank you
[00:19] <ActionParsnip> MagmaRules: you can script using ssh if you use key files rather than passwords
[00:19] <recognosco> kimboub: dial up can't get any faster than 56.6kbps as far as i know
[00:19] <Guest13942> MagmaRules, I would deploy a net install
[00:19] <recognosco> kimboub: so you're stuck with that speed
[00:20] <Guest13942> and some kind of sync between all the pachines. like one install, 39 syncs
[00:20] <MagmaRules> Unn googling net install
[00:20] <Odigem> Hi
[00:20] <kimboub> recognosco you can say that
[00:20] <Eruaran> Can anybody help - I'm trying to get Ubuntu 10.10 to work with a Telstra BigPond Turbo NextG (3G)
[00:20] <ActionParsnip> MagmaRules: also run a local apt server and you can schedule local upgrades from that which will use less internet speed
[00:20] <Eruaran> It's driving me mad
[00:20] <Matr|x> brb rebooting
[00:21] <recognosco> kimboub: do not send private messages. i am not helping you anymore. sorry.

[00:24] <frankcox777> Could anyone tell me if the virtualbox  4.04 for 9.10 will work in 9.04 ?
[00:24] <th1nG> error; and that's all
[00:24] <bazhang> frankcox777, #vbox please
[00:24] <Logan_> !virtualbox | frankcox777
[00:24] <Jordan_U> frankcox777: 9.04 is no longer supported. You really shouldn't be using it.
[00:25] <Jordan_U> !eol | frankcox777
[00:25] <Jordan_U> th1nG: Could you please rephrase the question?
[00:25] <xelister> on boot to my Ubuntu, full-disck encrypted system, I very often get: "error: out of disk." followed by GRUB rescue console. When I reboot and try again then often (around every 2nd time) it boots normally. When 2 hard drives are connected to the computer, then always it shows this error never booting correctly. Wtf. How to fix that?
[00:26] <frankcox777> Ok-I was working on that project but haven't got my new hard drive yet-
[00:27] <mrdeb> under what circumstances would one revert to 10.04 from 10.10?
[00:27] <bazhang> mrdeb, when you wanted to do a full reinstall
[00:27] <th1nG> sanek epta =)
[00:28] <yourwhiteshadow> trying to install 10.10 from USB alongside windows vista, is the partitioning of a 320 gb hard drive supposed to take 30 minutes?
[00:28] <bazhang> yourwhiteshadow, resizing?
[00:29] <Skaperen> is anyone (on 10.10) else having trouble with Rhythmbox accessing (in the Radio section) "NRK Klassisk" ?   ... I upgraded Rhythmbox to be sure, but it doesn't work ... accessing via mplayer works fine
[00:29] <sanek> где я?
[00:29] <Opie> yourwhiteshadow: hdd speed?

[00:30] <Skaperen> there seems to be no #ubuntu-ru
[00:31] <bazhang> sure there is
[00:31] <Opie> yourwhiteshadow: fast enough... i assume your usb is 2.0?
[00:31] <sanek> th1nG это почему?
[00:31] <xrdodrx> how can I figure out the encryption method of my wireless network from the terminal?
[00:31] <Skaperen> well, it's not showing up in the list ... hidden?

[00:34] <yourwhiteshadow> Opie, thanks, let's see how it goes, approaching 35 minutes
[00:34] <bazhang> iiicyg, ubuntu support question?
[00:35] <Skaperen> bazhang: does the rhythmbox package count as ubuntu support question?
[00:35] <Opie> yourwhiteshadow, np goodluck hopefully it finishes up soon.
[00:35] <bazhang> Skaperen, I've not got it running yet

[00:38] <Logan_> !ask | muji
[00:38] <Skaperen> bazhang: so it's broken?
[00:38] <bazhang> Skaperen, perhaps file a bug report?
[00:38] <iiicyg> bazhang, no, thank you. I would like to help other.
[00:39] <muji> so i bought a vps. its ubuntu 10.10.so i go to the ssh and type in sudo apt-get update but it doesn't seem to connect to the distro center. what should i do?
[00:40] <W43372> my hardware clock is somehow set to HAST instead of UTC
[00:40] <dorian> Well, hey there. I installed 10.10 on my laptop (Dell XPS 14) and was running beautifully and then I enabled the Nvidia drivers and it desired to reboot, so I allowed it being the gentleman I am, and when it rebooted it would show the 'Ubuntu loading screen' and then instead of going to the login manager like usual it dumped me like a one night stand at the console -- why? I tried startx, xinit, etc but it mentions that there is no screen.
[00:40] <Skaperen> W43372: do you have a question?
[00:40] <muji> so i bought a vps. its ubuntu 10.10.so i go to the ssh and type in sudo apt-get update but it doesn't seem to connect to the ubuntu distro center. what should i do?
[00:41] <W43372> Skaperen: How do I change the hwclock timezone from HAST to UTC?
[00:41] <Skaperen> muji: do you have DNS configured?
[00:41] <recognosco> muji - see if you can connect to the distro mirrors
[00:42] <recognosco> muji: with like simple wget
[00:42] <muji> how? how can i configure dns?
[00:42] <Eruaran> Apparrently no one can explain to me why Ubuntu wont work with a Telstra Bigpond Turbo NextG wireless modem
[00:42] <Eruaran> Or what to do about it
[00:42] <Skaperen> W43372:W43372: my guess is it's a timezone issue, not a clock issue
[00:42] <Eruaran> Threads on the forums are dead ends
[00:42] <recognosco> muji: edit the file /etc/resolv.conf
[00:43] <iiicyg> W43372, see /etc/default/rcS for UTC=yes
[00:43] <mechanarchy> Ubuntu 10.10 install cd gave me the "unknown user id" error, so I installed with the minimal CD; but Ubuntu isn't booting. Any ideas?
[00:43] <recognosco> muji: add a line like - nameserver x.x.x.x
[00:43] <Matr|x> my sound stoped working
[00:43] <Matr|x> ?
[00:44] <recognosco> muji: replace x.x.x.x with your dns server's IP
[00:44] <stevenson> maybe you went deaf
[00:44] <bazhang> !sound | Matr|x
[00:44] <muji> wait, with mine or my vps's?
[00:44] <bazhang> stevenson, thats not helpful
[00:44] <stevenson> i know baz :(
[00:44] <stevenson> i'm sorry
[00:44] <Skaperen> my sound went dead, too ... but it was because I left the headphones on and the battery ran down
[00:44] <W43372> iicyg i already did that. when i type sudo hwclock -r it shows me the proper time but it's saying hit's HAST and not UTC I don't know what the deal is but every time i reboot the clock is wrong
[00:45] <dorian> [bump] I installed 10.10 on my laptop (Dell XPS 14) and was running beautifully and then I enabled the Nvidia drivers and it desired to reboot, so I allowed it being the gentleman I am, and when it rebooted it would show the 'Ubuntu loading screen' and then instead of going to the login manager like usual it dumped me like a one night stand at the console -- why?

[00:53] <mechanarchy> iiicyg: regular install disk gives me "unknown user id 0" error normally.
[00:53] <Cody3290> Instead of getting "/media/0d104aff-ec8c-44c8-b811-92b993823444 type ext4 (rw,nosuid,nodev,uhelper=devkit)" I get "/dev/sda1 on /media/84189aef-7d5c-41c4-9b29-7cebba67c23b type ext4 (rw,nosuid,nodev,uhelper=udisks)"
[00:53] <induz> or some animation on a web browser
[00:53] <rajvi> Nrik i think its silverlight
[00:53] <nrik> induz, no, it is Microsoft technology, not even flash
[00:53] <rajvi> shockwave
[00:53] <Whisky_> I tried updating to the latest KDE in my Kubuntu 10.10. For some reason, the update got stuck half way and I had to switch my laptop off. Now, my computer won't boot. It get's stuck half way while starting services or something and never actually gets past the Kubuntu boot splash.
[00:53] <nrik> rajvi, You`r right
[00:53] <Cody3290> Whisky_: You may want to check in #kubuntu if you haven't already
[00:53] <rajvi> wrong chaneel Whisky
[00:54] <nrik> rajvi, You`r right, Silverlight!!!
[00:54] <dorian> bozhang: You are both a gentleman and a scholar. May the Gods smile upon thee this day.
[00:54] <induz> yes nrik  i had to register my ID on msn live and it asked me to install moonlight and i diid
[00:54] <induz> but i didnt know what it is
[00:54] <rajvi> yup i understand
[00:54] <rajvi> its a plugin right
[00:54] <nrik> induz, http://www.silverlight.net/
[00:54] <Whisky_> rajvi, Cody3290: Yes, I'm aware. It's just that there's no one 'awake' there and I believe this would be more related to Linux it's self and not just KDE? I might be wrong though.
[00:55] <muji> my vps cant ping google or anything else. nor can it connect to ubuntu distro center, any1 know what i can do?
[00:55] <iiicyg> mechanarchy, I see, then my recommendation is not relevant your problem.
[00:55] <nrik> induz, Silverlight is a powerful development platform for creating engaging, interactive user experiences for Web, desktop, and mobile applications when online or offline.
[00:55] <induz> is it like APIs?/
[00:55] <rajvi> i know that nrik
[00:55] <induz> thanks nrik
[00:56] <recognosco> induz: moonlight is miscrosoft silverlight replacement for linux
[00:56] <recognosco> muji: did you edit /etc/resolve.conf and add that nameserver?
[00:56] <rajvi> ok thanx recognosco
[00:57] <nrik> who can help with locale? I have question marks in terminal window.
[00:57] <induz> I understood that
[00:57] <rajvi> i vivek
[00:57] <induz> ok bye for now
[00:57] <rajvi> hi vivek
[00:57] <muji> recognosco: i tried but it wouldn't like even open it up
[00:58] <rajvi> good 2 c indians linux users
[00:58] <aroman> hello, how can I un-lockdown all applets on my gnome-panel?
[00:59] <YankDownUnder> right-click the applet, choose unlock from panel
[00:59] <aroman> YankDownUnder: my entire panel I mean
[01:00] <rajvi> one applet
[01:00] <aroman> the panel itself is locked
[01:00] <recognosco> muji: what text editor are you using?
[01:00] <rajvi> right click first
[01:00] <Vivekananda> Hello everyone.Am using lucid 32 with firefox 3 6 15 and am facing a problem after a recent update(around a few days back).The problem is then when I run youtube the first video is in color but the subsequent ones are in black and white.On running firefox in the terminal I get the error-- Mesa 7.7.1 implementation error when I play a subsequent video.Can anyone help?
[01:00] <aroman> nvm I got it
[01:00] <Opie> yourwhiteshadow, hows it coming?
[01:00] <muji> i have gedit on my pc but idk bout the vps

[01:01] <AngryParsley> what's the live search that most people use on ubuntu? tracker? beagle?
[01:01] <rajvi> problem with mesa
[01:02] <rajvi> hi
[01:02] <recognosco> muji: in the vps command line type this: sudo echo "nameserver 96.8.113.13" > /etc/resolv.conf
[01:02] <AngryParsley> basically I want something like spotlight on OS X, but on ubuntu. and I'm wondering if ubuntu has mostly standardized on a spotlight-like thing yet
[01:03] <recognosco> brb
[01:03] <Jordan_U> Vivekananda: Try disabling hardware acceleration in the flash settings (right click a flash video).
[01:03] <AngryParsley> recognosco: shouldn't that be >> ?
[01:03] <AngryParsley> that overwrites his resolv.conf
[01:03] <recognosco> AngryParsley: could be either
[01:03] <recognosco> AngryParsley: his DNS ain't working
[01:03] <AngryParsley> oh
[01:03] <recognosco> brb
[01:04] <FoolishOwl> Do we know when the beta release of Natty is expected?
[01:04] <W3ird_N3rd> I may be blind, but where it the release schedule for natty?
[01:04] <W3ird_N3rd> *it=is
[01:05] <W3ird_N3rd> there used to be release schedule pages for the version that's coming up, but I can't find it (neither can google)
[01:05] <W3ird_N3rd> that would answer FoolishOwl's question as well :P
[01:05] <Cody3290> :)
[01:05] <Cody3290> I fixed my MBr
[01:05] <Cody3290> Now, my question is - How do I load up my windows? >.<
[01:05] <FoolishOwl> Yes.
[01:06] <Tech_Support> do you guys know what's happening in japan?
[01:06] <yeats> !11.04 | W3ird_N3rd FoolishOwl
[01:06] <Cody3290> The stsunami
[01:06] <W3ird_N3rd> Tech_Support, yes.
[01:06] <Cody3290> who *doesn't* know about it
[01:06] <Tech_Support> well I found out a half hour ago
[01:06] <Cody3290> lol
[01:06] <W3ird_N3rd> support, support.. just looking for a release schedule
[01:06] <Cody3290> i found out this morning from bbc news
[01:06] <W3ird_N3rd> that's hardly "support"
[01:06] <Cody3290> but this is off topic
[01:06] <Tech_Support> ok
[01:06] <Cody3290> Anyone can answer my question? :)
[01:07] <Vivekananda> Jordan_U:Did not have this problem earlier.It fixes the problem thanks but could you tell me more to read on why this problem happens and why acceleration is causing it?
[01:07] <Tech_Support> I was just released from the hospital so
[01:07] <Tech_Support> no outside comunication until now
[01:07] <Cody3290> Oh
[01:07] <W3ird_N3rd> Cody3290, install grub and reboot
[01:07] <Cody3290> Sorry for your lots
[01:07] <Tech_Support> lots?
[01:07] <Cody3290> I did install grub, now I can't seem to be able to load xp
[01:07] <Cody3290> loss, rather
[01:07] <Tech_Support> I didn't loose anything
[01:07] <Cody3290> and by loss I mean loss of time.
[01:07] <Tech_Support> oh
[01:07] <Cody3290> from being in the hospital.
[01:07] <Tech_Support> well that I lost
[01:08] <Tech_Support> but whatever
[01:08] <Fopp> Hello!
[01:08] <Tech_Support> hi
[01:08] <Cody3290> !grub2 > Cody3290
[01:08] <Tech_Support> bye
[01:09] <Cody3290> hm
[01:09] <Cody3290> maybe I just missed the screen that asked me what to load
[01:09] <W3ird_N3rd> FoolishOwl, https://wiki.ubuntu.com/NattyReleaseSchedule
[01:09] <Cody3290> rebooting again
[01:09] <Fopp> Ok, everyone, I need to perform what really is a somewhat simple terminal function. however, i am no good at using the terminal. I need to change the permissions of my kindle, as it is currently a read only device. any help to do this would be great. thanks
[01:10] <Cody3290> :O
[01:10] <Cody3290> THe kindle is compatible with linux?
[01:10] <Fopp> wel
[01:10] <Fopp> until the recent update
[01:10] <FoolishOwl> W3ird_N3rd, thank you.
[01:10] <Cody3290> Through Wine, ain't it.
[01:10] <Fopp> yes, absolutely.
[01:10] <Cody3290> x.e
[01:10] <Fopp> however, ever since the recent update, I've had problems.
[01:10] <Vivekananda> Jordan_U:??
[01:10] <Fopp> buuutt.. other kindle linux users are telling they're not having the problem I am!
[01:10] <Cody3290> Interesting. Sorry for leading you on, I can't really help you. Only been a week or so on Linux myself
[01:11] <Cody3290> Rebooting, br
[01:11] <Cody3290> brb
[01:11] <Vivekananda> I did not see any mesa update from synaptic but should I do an update by building ?
[01:13] <Fopp> it's actually been quite a pain for me. I had the kindle 3 days before the update came out. as soon as that happened, i can't transfer any files.
[01:14] <Cody3290> Ok. Weird.
[01:15] <Cody3290> I installed WinXP, and have fixed my MBR. Now ubuntu loads, but straight away, and I have no option to load up XP
[01:15] <aaa> "sudo start doesrailswork" just says "stop/waiting" http://pastebin.com/raw.php?i=yhyQqGjj
[01:15] <noah> if you chown/chmod stuff under var, e.g. /var/log/mysql.err, does it automatically get reset? if so, what does it?
[01:15] <epicenter> Q: I have onboard AMD/ATI video but also have a PCIe ATI video card. Onboard works awesome in Ubuntu. How do I get the 2nd video adapter to kick in?
[01:15] <epicenter> Thanks!
[01:16] <navatwo> Hi, I was just trying to modify my partition table and GParted buggered up.
[01:16] <navatwo> Could someone point me in the right direction for restoring my partition table? I have the details etc.
[01:17] <noah> navatwo, "buggered up"??
[01:17] <epicenter> navatwo: I am no pro on this. But AFAIK if you assemble a grub config file matching your existing partitions (that are bootable), you should be in business
[01:17] <epicenter> if Grub can run you can boot to any accessible volume
[01:18] <navatwo> epicenter: Its not grub thats broken. noah the operations for moving failed.
[01:18] <noah> failed how?
[01:18] <epicenter> My typical solution for a busted partition table is to move out any data that can be salvaged, remove all partitions and set up new ones
[01:19] <epicenter> then move it back
[01:19] <Cody3290> hmm
[01:19] <epicenter> Though I've not encountered a partition table that just shit the bed out of nowhere; it must relate to a new OS install or attempt
[01:19] <navatwo> noah: it told me to save the details and that the partition movement failed. I have the file.
[01:19] <Fopp> so, i *think* I need to change my file permissions of the system, but I'm told it's a read only file system... and I need to sign in as root to do that?
[01:19] <Cody3290> I'm just gonna reinstall ubuntu
[01:19] <Cody3290> sudo is for root, i believe
[01:19] <iiicyg> navatwo, show details.
[01:20] <navatwo> iiicyg: I will upload it, one second.
[01:20] <Fopp> yeah, but i dont know how to change permissions via the terminal
[01:20] <iiicyg> navatwo, http://paste.ubuntu.com
[01:20] <Fopp> once i figure that out, hopefully I'll be home and dry.
[01:20] <navatwo> iiicyg: its an HTML files.
[01:20] <epicenter> I'm really curious if someone can figure this out. I have onboard video AND a PCIe graphics card hooked up to the 2nd monitor. Ubuntu does not immediately activate the 2nd. Where should I start looking to get this sucker running?
[01:21] <epicenter> Both cards are AMD/ATI made
[01:21] <navatwo> epicenter: install the proprietary drivers for your graphics card.
[01:21] <j_ayen_green> I have a NAS that I mount as CIFS, recently I've been getting an error at the start of booting about not being able to use the socket, I think it's error 101. Oddly enough, the NAS is still available for use by simplebackup, but what was happening is that right after the backup was written the system would hang (cursor still moves) with high CPU. Descheduling the backup ended that issue.
[01:21] <iiicyg> navatwo, http://dump.bitcheese.net/
[01:21] <navatwo> iiicyg: and noah http://paste.ubuntu.com/579088/
[01:22] <epicenter> navatwo: Ihave installed the prop. drivers (ATI Catalyst Ctrl Ctr.) and only the onboard is seen
[01:22] <iiicyg> navatwo, ok/
[01:22] <navatwo> iiicyg: noah http://dump.bitcheese.net/files/ojijuxe/gparted_details.htm easier to read version.
[01:22] <epicenter> In Windows, the ATI Ctrl. Ctr. will find both cards as both share one giant driver pack.
[01:23] <navatwo> epicenter: how are you looking for the monitors? Through the ctrl center?
[01:23] <epicenter> Navatwo: Yes.
[01:23] <kaloid> brasil
[01:23] <kaloid> brasil
[01:23] <kaloid> me tranfere para o brasil
[01:23] <noah> navatwo, you could try what it suggests, assuming you care about your ntfs partition
[01:24] <noah> "NTFS is inconsistent. Run chkdsk /f on Windows then reboot it TWICE!"
[01:24] <iiicyg> "Run chkdsk /f on Windows then reboot it TWICE!"
[01:24] <iiicyg> ^-)
[01:24] <navatwo> I just saw that, the issue is I'm not sure I want to reboot..
[01:24] <bazhang> !br | kaloid
[01:24] <navatwo> Although, the other partitions which contain windows/ubuntu seem OK.
[01:25] <iiicyg> navatwo, be sure.
[01:25] <noah> navatwo, yeah, the log seems to be saying things are fine except the ntfs partition
[01:25] <kaloid> #ubuntu-br
[01:25] <navatwo> ofc, that one has over 600gb of media on it. >.>
[01:25] <need_space> hello im running maverick livecd in virtualmachine and I need space. if i try to remove --purge applications it wont allow.... HELP
[01:25] <bazhang> kaloid, /join #ubuntu-br
[01:26] <iiicyg> navatwo, don't panic, just do it.
[01:26] <bazhang> need_space, static? or allowed to grow as needed
[01:26] <epicenter> navatwo: Where is the best place to analyze installed devices?
[01:26] <need_space> bazhang: none just the cd
[01:26] <TheMusicGuy> For some reason, I am no longer being asked for a password whenever I used sudo or gksudo. It just automatically grants root permissions, even though I haven't used sudo/gksudo since starting this session.
[01:26] <epicenter> navatwo: or detected devices without drivers
[01:26] <need_space> bazhang: livecd
[01:26] <navatwo> epicenter: google.. lspci is a good start to get full names though.
[01:26] <navatwo> `lspci`*
[01:26] <Jordan_U> navatwo: The log also seems to show that no resize was attempted as an already existing problem was detected.
[01:26] <navatwo> anyways
[01:26] <navatwo> brb
[01:26] <yourwhiteshadow> Opie, it finished eventually, everything is installing and working well, my friend says thanks
[01:27] <bazhang> need_space, its not installed?
[01:27] <need_space> bazhang: no
[01:27] <navatwo> Jordan_U: implyying?
[01:27] <epicenter> navatwo: I know all the details. I need to know if the kernel loaded a driver for it or not
[01:27] <bazhang> need_space, then that wont work
[01:27] <need_space> bazhang: why not
[01:27] <Jordan_U> navatwo: Implying that there is nothing that needs to be reverted that gparted has done.
[01:27] <navatwo> hmm
[01:27] <bazhang> need_space, its a fixed size. the cd is not resizable
[01:27] <noah> TheMusicGuy, does relevant /etc/sudoers line say NOPASSWD ?
[01:27] <navatwo> so essentially, gparted is upset over nothing?
[01:27] <need_space> bazhang: how can I add swap to it
[01:28] <navatwo> over something* but it hasn't affected anything
[01:28] <bazhang> need_space, you dont
[01:28] <TheMusicGuy> noah, no
[01:28] <Jordan_U> navatwo: No, there is a problem. It's just a problem that existed before you started doing anything with gparted.
[01:28] <need_space> thats an horrible answer
[01:28] <navatwo> anyway, brb. going into windows.
[01:28] <navatwo> Jordan_U: thanks :)
[01:28] <archpatri> I'm stuck in 800x600 low-graphic mode and Ubuntu freezes at boot if I don't choose the failsafe option. GPU drivers are installed correctly. Maybe the GPU is dead?
[01:28] <navatwo> noah: and iiicyg thanks as well.
[01:28] <Fopp> oh dear I dont seem to be too good at this =(
[01:29] <bazhang> need_space, there is no solution unless you install. asking to manipulate a livecd just wont work
[01:29] <iiicyg> navatwo, you are welcome :-)
[01:29] <noah> TheMusicGuy, what do you mean by "this session"? i think sudo uses timeouts that remain in place even if you log out and back in
[01:29] <Jimmey> Hello, I want to set a file to have the permissions -rw-r---r-- 1 root root 64 -------- how can I do this?
[01:29] <Whisky_> Can anyone help me get WiFi working in shell?
[01:29] <need_space> bazhang: I could remove programs..
[01:29] <noah> Jimmey, chmod 644 foo
[01:30] <recognosco> Jimmey: sudo chmod 644 file
[01:30] <bazhang> !wifi | Whisky_ have a read
[01:30] <bazhang> need_space, from a livecd? no you cant
[01:30] <iiicyg> And don't forget chown root:root
[01:30] <need_space> k bazhang
[01:30] <Jimmey> recognosco, noah, thanks
[01:30] <TheMusicGuy> normally I am aksed for the password every time I open a new terminal window and use sudo/gksudo. In this case, however, all newly-opened terminal windows and dekstop icons with gksudo in them, etc, all act as if I had already entered the password.
[01:31] <Jordan_U> TheMusicGuy: That's normal for a few minutes after you have antered your password.
[01:31] <TheMusicGuy> Could this be caused by having a sudo'd command running from one of the text ttys?
[01:32] <TheMusicGuy> Jordan_U, not for me it isn't. This has never happened before.
[01:32] <Fopp> Ok, hopefully this is a simple question: Now I've managed to get the terminal to recognise my kindle, what is the code to change its permissions? thank you!
[01:32] <K4k> Is there a way to add a script to the suspend on lid close?
[01:33] <bazhang> K4k, a script to do what
[01:33] <iiicyg> To suspend.
[01:33] <nava2> iiicyg: and Jordan_U so, I think chkdsk just checks teh current drive/partition, not all of them.
[01:33] <iiicyg> K4k, yes.
[01:34] <K4k> bazhang: It checks what my IP is and if it's one of a certain subnets it will start a file sync to my server
[01:34] <shaneo> can some one help me with the following error `bind': Address already in use - bind(2) (Errno::EADDRINUSE)
[01:35] <cfedde> shaneo: sounds like some other program is already listening on the port.
[01:35] <need_space> bazhang: installing
[01:35] <K4k> iiicyg: I should be more specific. I'm using gnome-power-manager and does it use the scripts under acpi, pm or something else?
[01:35] <need_space> meh
[01:35] <nava2> nvm, got it.
[01:35] <shaneo> how do i find out what progam
[01:35] <cfedde> shaneo: what program are you starting?
[01:35] <mike_> I need some help getting my wifi to work on my netbook
[01:35] <bazhang> mike_, what chipset
[01:36] <shaneo> ummmm
[01:37] <j_ayen_green> while I'm waiting for help on the CIFS issue... is it smooth (no or few manual config changes) and worth it to upgrade from 10.04 to 10.10
[01:37] <bazhang> j_ayen_green, yes
[01:37] <shaneo> n/m got it
[01:37] <cfedde> shaneo: cool!
[01:37] <j_ayen_green> bazhang, nice. why doesn't update manager offer it?
[01:38] <bazhang> j_ayen_green, check to allow non-lts
[01:38] <j_ayen_green> bazhang, ah, ok. thanks :)
[01:38] <j_ayen_green> bazhang, but i guess i need to get my cifs issue resolved first, so I can back up :-s
[01:38] <Fopp> still havn't got it working. i did make a thread, but i havnt recieved an answer on it http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1703814
[01:39] <A|i3N> soooooo......... lol. any good audio converters out there? As far as WMA --> MP3 without worrying about DRM
[01:39] <ricorx7> Fopp: is it mounted? i do not know how kindle is connected
[01:40] <durando> hey guys i'm brand new to using ubuntu server, but have experience with ubuntu desktop and i'm trying to setup raid 5 for the first time my first concern is that when i sudo fdisk -l all i'm seeing is the 3 drives attached ot the mobo and not the additional 4 drives attached to the daughterboard (my mobo has a daughterboard configuration no i dont mean a pci card)
[01:40] <Fopp> ricorx: via usb
[01:40] <K4k> bazhang: Do you happen to know what gnome-power-manager does to start suspending on lid close? I would like to run this script before it tries to run any of it's normal suspend actions
[01:40] <Guest91512> Anyone know anything about getting WiFi to work on a netbook?
[01:40] <bazhang> A|i3N, it has drm?
[01:40] <bazhang> Guest91512, I asked you what chipset
[01:40] <K4k> Guest91512: that's a bit vague. Do you have the brand/model of the laptop?
[01:40] <ricorx7> Fopp: did you type mount and make sure its not read only
[01:41] <Fopp> No, but im not sure how to do that.
[01:41] <ricorx7> type "mount"
[01:41] <Fopp> ok
[01:42] <Fopp> ah terminal has thrown some stuff at me. i will paste bin it.
[01:42] <Fopp> http://pastebin.com/24DLCEfB
[01:42] <ZenGuy311> my firend is using joliloud(joliOS), the sound plays from one app at a time.. for example , vlc will playback sound from a video but simaltanously won't play sound from a youtube video .. this occurs with ALL programs
[01:43] <A|i3N> Bazhang - something that'll decrypt digital rights. I have some stuff I ripped in windows from CD and well, it was on a windows computer that didn't have software to rip to MP3...
[01:43] <bazhang> ZenGuy311, then go to jolicloud support, this is not it
[01:43] <A|i3N> so if i try to put it on an MP3 player, it won't play.
[01:43] <A|i3N> Don't want to rip all the cd's again lol
[01:44] <bazhang> A|i3N, for an ipod type device? or just on your computer
[01:44] <Yoinx> If you ripped it in windows, why would it have DRM on it?
[01:44] <A|i3N> All I know is the windows software I was trying to use to convert them wouldn't do it lol
[01:44] <ZenGuy311> bazhang: i did but ther was no support, i thought since it was based on ubuntu i could get some help
[01:44] <ricorx7> Fopp: its mounted with R/W.  Did you try copying from the kindle to your computer
[01:44] <ricorx7> Fopp: then copy back

[01:45] <bazhang> ZenGuy311, all the more reason to avoid it
[01:45] <Fopp> Rico: I have tried the first part. I will try it again and see what happens
[01:45] <bazhang> A|i3N, if you ripped it with windows with the drm intact then you're out of luck
[01:45] <ZenGuy311> bazhang: the netbook support was very specific to his model and unmatched
[01:46] <Guest91512> I need some help getting my wifi to work
[01:46] <A|i3N> yea it probably was enabled for some reason.. it was an older laptop running 2000
[01:46] <Fopp> ok, I was able to copy a file to my desktop easily enough. I tried moving it back and was told: Error opening file '[my file]': Read-only file system
[01:46] <bazhang> Guest91512, third time: what chipset
[01:46] <ricorx7> Fopp: give the copy command
[01:46] <bazhang> Guest91512, just repeating that will get zero help
[01:47] <Fopp> the command I sued to copy? I dragged it to the desktop
[01:47] <Vesuivius> my mp3 player will not mount in ubuntu, how can i fix this?
[01:47] <Guest91512> Sry, BMC4313
[01:47] <ricorx7> Fopp: which folder did you copy to put it on the kindle?
[01:47] <bazhang> !broadcom | Guest91512 here
[01:47] <A|i3N> bazhang: Kinda funny ya can take copyrighted DVD's and copy them for backups but can't bust drm LOL
[01:47] <stan> xchat to get here I had to stop firefighter.  What should I have done?
[01:47] <bazhang> Vesuivius, which make/model what have you tried, with which music software
[01:48] <Fopp> rico: I copied a regular .mobi file from the kindle.
[01:48] <bazhang> stan, pardon?
[01:48] <Guest91512> thanks i'm gona try again
[01:48] <bazhang> stan, you mean firewall?
[01:48] <Vesuivius> bazhang: it is an ipod and i use rhythmbox, im having trouble with mounting and changing it from read only
[01:49] <Fopp> oh dear, seem to have been cut out there. sorry!
[01:49] <stan> Yes firewall, I wonder where I've landed?
[01:49] <Yoinx> vesuvius, you may have to toggle the setting on the mp3 player for "mtp" to "msc"
[01:49] <bazhang> Vesuivius, did it ever work?
[01:49] <bazhang> stan #ubuntu channel for ubuntu support
[01:49] <Yoinx> sorry, I was a bit late on the reply, not sure if that will apply for an ipod.
[01:49] <Alphanaut> can anyone reccomend a good apache server admin gui?
[01:49] <Alphanaut> er, a free one...
[01:50] <Vesuivius> bazhang: it worked before with an 8gb ipod, but i just bought this one and need to configure it
[01:50] <ricorx7> Fopp: what is the folder path?
[01:50] <Fopp> it is /media
[01:50] <A|i3N> bazhang by the way, I never got handbrake to work. Works fine on my uncle's computer - but I have lucid with no updates installed because of slow internet, and he has maverick fully updated - worked without a hitch with the same codecs installed. I installed all the same stuff on his computer that I did on mine and it works better then CloneDVD and AnyDVD ever did for him. Now if we can get WoW working on his computer under linux we'll be doing great lol :)
[01:50] <ricorx7> Fopp: /media/kindle or /media
[01:50] <bazhang> Vesuivius, okay, some of the newer ones may have difficulty as apple changes firmware to stop non itunes users
[01:50] <Fopp> te former, rico
[01:51] <bazhang> A|i3N, what about ogmrip
[01:51] <ricorx7> Fopp: you need to copy to /media/Kindle
[01:51] <stan> Is firestarter any good as a fire wall, problems working with Samba and now XChat
[01:51] <bazhang> stan, try gufw
[01:51] <Fopp> oh, sorry misunderstood
[01:51] <Fopp> I am copying to that folder, yes. media/kindle
[01:51] <bazhang> !info gufw | stan
[01:51] <Vesuivius> bazhang: it worked before with an 8gb ipod, but i just bought this one and need to configure it
[01:52] <ricorx7> Fopp: in console type "cp theFileName.mobi /media/Kindle" see if its the same error
[01:52] <bazhang> Vesuivius, yes, understood. most of mine work, the latest I am having trouble with
[01:52] <Fopp> ok, on it
[01:53] <skullboy> does ekiga make calls to land lines
[01:53] <Vesuivius> bazhang: its a possibility its new, do you have any ideas
[01:53] <ricorx7> Fopp: also type "ls -al /media/Kindle".  It may to  go in a specific folder on the Kindle.  I have a Nook, so i am not sure
[01:53] <A|i3N> bazhang: i'm not even gonna worry about it right now because of internet speed. If I wanted to, can I scrap this linux installation somehow without screwing my windows installation up, and do a clean install now that I know a little more about it? I want to allocate more space to the file system and make sure I didn't screw anything up in the first place. It's a dual boot with windows 7 on the same hard drive/same partition. Is there an un-install procedure?
[01:54] <xelister> how to mount full-disck encrypted partiotions from livecd / rescuecd ?
[01:54] <bazhang> A|i3N, wubi install?
[01:54] <Fopp> ok rico
[01:54] <Fopp> I have done this. I am given te exact same error.
[01:54] <A|i3N> Bazhang, what do you mean? I
[01:54] <bazhang> A|i3N, aka from within windows? you can resize that if you wish
[01:55] <ricorx7> Fopp: what about ls -al
[01:55] <A|i3N> actually I booted offa the CD to do it I believe
[01:55] <Fopp> now doingi it
[01:55] <bazhang> A|i3N, then it would not be the same partition
[01:55] <xelister> how to mount full-disck encrypted partiotions from livecd / rescuecd ?
[01:55] <wn1zid> hi, i just received a eeepc 1005ha, is it reccomended that i use netbook ?
[01:56] <bazhang> wn1zid, what screen size
[01:56] <wn1zid> 10.5 i think
[01:56] <Fopp> ricorx7: here's what I get http://pastebin.com/BtVCXdDT
[01:56] <bazhang> wn1zid, both will work try them and see which you like
[01:56] <neiz> xelister: how was it encrypted? truecrypt?
[01:56] <A|i3N> bazhang: hm. ok. Maybe so? GParted only sees one partition, plus the recovery partition on the computer so maybe I did go through windows. Will it be in my start menu?
[01:56] <wn1zid> ok, how big is it, i have a 120 meg usb stick, is that enough ?
[01:56] <xelister> neiz: no
[01:56] <xelister> neiz: LVM
[01:57] <bazhang> A|i3N, a wubi install can be removed from the add/remove in windows
[01:57] <ricorx7> Fopp: "ls -al /media/Kindle/documents"
[01:57] <Dextroid> How do I se the output of a command page by page instead of one quick flow of output which I can't scroll back? In shell by the way
[01:57] <bazhang> A|i3N, or you could resize it if you wish
[01:57] <neiz> xelister: ah, sorry, only familiar with truecrypt
[01:58] <A|i3N> ok cool. Would that explain handbrake not working though? No updates on Lucid and not the latest version?
[01:58] <Fopp> ok rico, more of the same.. obviously a lot longer due to having more files in there (It's where my ebooks are stored). pastebin here http://pastebin.com/59BP1P2c
[01:58] <bazhang> A|i3N, doubtful that would affect handbrake though
[01:59] <Dextroid> Anyone?
[01:59] <ricorx7> Fopp: in console type "cp theFileName.mobi /media/Kindle/documents" see if its the same error
[01:59] <A|i3N> ok. His worked off the bat with no issues that's why I want to do a clean install. I mighta messed something up in my complete ignorance of linux. LOL. We both like it better though.
[01:59] <Fopp> on it!
[01:59] <bazhang> A|i3N, yep, I real dual boot is preferable in my opinion
[02:00] <bazhang> err a
[02:00] <Dextroid> How do I se the output of a command page by page instead of one quick flow of output which I can't scroll back? In shell by the way
[02:00] <vince> just less the cmd
[02:00] <A|i3N> Bazhang, I coulda sworn I dual booted it/installed it right offa the CD. I'm gonna go log onto windows and check I guess.
[02:00] <bazhang> Dextroid, with less?
[02:00] <Fopp> rico: same old, same old. cp: cannot create regular file `/media/Kindle/documents/file.mobi': Read-only file system
[02:00] <vince> yeah
[02:01] <bazhang> Dextroid, whats the command
[02:01] <Dextroid> I'm scanning for wireless networks. How do I use less?
[02:01] <bazhang> Dextroid, using iwlist?
[02:01] <Dextroid> Yes
[02:01] <A|i3N> oh - Bazhang - Just checked GParted again. I've got sda1, and sda3, but no sda2? Could that be an indication it's running on it's own partition? How do I check?
[02:01] <bazhang> doubtful youd need that
[02:02] <ricorx7> Fopp: last thing i can think "type umount /media/Kindle" then type
[02:02] <Dextroid> I do. The networks just fly across the screen
[02:02] <ricorx7> Fopp: "mount /dev/sdb1 /media/Kindle"
[02:02] <bazhang> okay
[02:03] <Fopp> ok
[02:03] <dpzhang314> may be sda2 is an extended partion
[02:03] <xnui> Hi
[02:03] <dpzhang314> hi ,there
[02:03] <Fopp> mount point /media/Kindle does not exist should I try just /media?
[02:04] <dpzhang314> just mkdir for it
[02:04] <ricorx7> Fopp: no
[02:04] <dpzhang314> ??
[02:04] <Fopp> oh, ok
[02:05] <Fopp> uh oh ear
[02:05] <A|i3N> oh - Bazhang - Just checked GParted again. I've got sda1, and sda3, but no sda2? Could that be an indication it's running on it's own partition? How do I check?
[02:05] <Fopp> dear
[02:05] <A|i3N> sorry if you got that twice just got knocked off.
[02:05] <leaveboy> Fopp: danning!
[02:06] <Fopp> ubuntu just threw this at me: unable to mount location error creating moint point: Input/output error
[02:06] <ricorx7> Fopp: thats ok
[02:06] <Fopp> ok
[02:06] <ricorx7> Fopp: unplug and replug in your Kindle
[02:07] <Fopp> i just did, that error message came up =|
[02:07] <Fopp> kindle appears under places, but whenver i click it I get the error message I put above
[02:07] <ricorx7> hmm, cuz the /media/Kindle folder does not exist
[02:09] <Fopp> right
[02:09] <ricorx7> Fopp: Kindle 1 or 2, which ubuntu
[02:09] <Fopp> it's the newest kindle, whatever they're calling it, ubuntu is 10.10
[02:09] <Yoinx> kindle 3.
[02:10] <_Tristan> so I sudo apt-get remove'd evolution, and it was like "LOLK removing ubuntu-desktop". Now I'm trying to install it again, and it's like "LOLK openoffice 300MB <3"
[02:10] <_Tristan> what do?
[02:10] <ricorx7> Fopp: has it ever worked, if so, what did you change
[02:10] <bazhang> _Tristan, ubuntu-desktop is safe to remove
[02:10] <bazhang> _Tristan, its just a meta-package
[02:10] <Fopp> uhhh, sorry, that was my internet cutting out. been doing that for a while now (not an ubuntu problem, happens to windows using housemates too)
[02:10] <_Tristan> bazhang: now that just doesn't sound right, you sure?
[02:10] <bazhang> !metapackage > _Tristan
[02:10] <bazhang> _Tristan, very

[02:12] <lusmus> which are good of these.. blackbox openbox or fluxbox?
[02:12] <isleshocky771> If I run VBoxSDL --startvm 'Windows XP' --evdevkeymap from the command line evdevkeymap works properly. If I run that same command from a "launcher" shortcut then it doesn't. Is there any kind of caveat of a launcher that I don't know about such as options or something?
[02:12] <Fopp> hi yoinx. i will look. the odd thing is, until very recently I was having no problems using my kidnle with calibre. te problems began as soon as amazon sent out a new software update for the kindle. Yet, othe kindle users with ubuntu do not report the problems i am having
[02:12] <bazhang> lusmus, try them and decide
[02:12] <wolfric> what package should i install for curses library that gcc can use to compile programs needing ncurses.h
[02:12] <ricorx7> Fopp: Yonix,  thats what i was looking at too
[02:12] <lusmus> lightwighted
[02:12] <bazhang> lusmus, openbox and lxde are lubuntu
[02:12] <xrdodrx> how do I edit the text of my $PATH?
[02:12] <xrdodrx> I messed it up
[02:12] <xrdodrx> with too many export commands :<
[02:12] <lusmus> bazhang: ok how many are they?
[02:13] <bazhang> lusmus, how many are what
[02:13] <skullboy> does ekiga make calls to land lines
[02:13] <[segfault]> wolfric: I think its ncurses-dev
[02:13] <leaveboy> xrdodrx: echo $PATH and export PATH=xxxxxxx
[02:13] <xrdodrx> leaveboy, right but I have lots of weird stuff in it
[02:14] <xrdodrx> I want to minus all that
[02:14] <ricorx7> Fopp: have you used the umount command before when in ubuntu and kindle plugged in
[02:14] <Fopp> never before today. never needed to.
[02:14] <Fopp> but right now I cant access my kindle's files
[02:14] <wolfric> [segfault]: got it cheers
[02:14] <ricorx7> Fopp: on the weblink Yonix gave you, it describes what possibly happened
[02:14] <oneliner> how can i make an adress match the loopback ip? like the hosts file in windows
[02:15] <ricorx7> Fopp: its always a good idea to eject the USB device before disconnecting
[02:15] <Fopp> ok
[02:15] <dejan_> hi, when I watch videos fullscreen video gets white flashes why?
[02:15] <ricorx7> Fopp: make sure the kindle is not listed when  you type "mount"
[02:15] <dejan_> if its not fullscreen its ok
[02:15] <bazhang> dejan_, flash?
[02:15] <ricorx7> Fopp: then give the command "sudo dosfsck -r /dev/sdb1"
[02:16] <dejan_> i am not sure how to check if i have flash
[02:16] <Yoinx> you may wanna make sure you actually get it listed under fdisk -l as well... (it should show)
[02:16] <leaveboy> xrdodrx: PATH=/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/bin:/usr/games is
[02:16] <dejan_> yes flash is video that i am watching
[02:16] <bazhang> dejan_, no, is the video flash
[02:16] <A|i3N> Oooook. bazhang - I've got an ubuntu menu under add/remove, but I can't change the install, only remove.
[02:16] <xrdodrx> leaveboy, is what?
[02:16] <ricorx7> Fopp: a person is describing the same problems as you and said this fixed it
[02:16] <bazhang> dejan_, disable compiz then? flash fullscreen just is not very good to be honest
[02:16] <xrdodrx> leaveboy, enter that?
[02:16] <Fopp> tanks
[02:16] <A|i3N> So I guess I did use wubu.
[02:16] <dejan_> bazhang: what is compiz?
[02:17] <leaveboy> xrdodrx: originality
[02:17] <xrdodrx> leaveboy, huh?
[02:17] <bazhang> dejan_, the 3d wobbly windows stuff. better to download the flv and play on hdd
[02:17] <ricorx7> Fopp: if this does fix it, it means, you need to remember to always eject or umount the device before unplugging it
[02:17] <Fopp> ok
[02:18] <leaveboy> xrdodrx: original?
[02:18] <bazhang> A|i3N, you want to resize it? or just remove
[02:18] <AnubArack> how to i remove a program + settings left behing ? --purge?
[02:18] <xrdodrx> leaveboy, entering that command wroked, thanks :)
[02:18] <dejan_> bazhang: um compiz what is that man i dot understand how to disable it?
[02:18] <ricorx7> Fopp: when you gave the command, did it said it found any problems?
[02:18] <bazhang> dejan_, alt f2 metacity --replace
[02:19] <bazhang> Polah, hi
[02:19] <A|i3N> bazhang, You said I could do either. How do I resize if I want to? It only gives the option to remove.
[02:19] <dejan_> i cant download the vide..
[02:19] <DasEi> AnubArack: remove with config, too ? --purge,yes
[02:19] <bazhang> A|i3N, let me get you the link

[02:19] <dejan_> bazhang: i did that what is that what did that command?
[02:19] <AnubArack> i need to remove chrome + settings
[02:20] <DasEi> AnubArack: the browser ?
[02:20] <AnubArack> yes
[02:20] <dejan_> bazhang: i did alt f2 metacity --replace what was that command
[02:20] <DasEi> AnubArack: sudo apt-get remove chromium-browser
[02:20] <dejan_> bazhang: what that command did ?
[02:20] <leaveboy> xrdodrx: to enable it when restart modify PATH that in  /etc/barsh.rc and ~/.bash.rc
[02:20] <DasEi> AnubArack: sudo apt-get remove --purge chromium-browser , sry
[02:20] <A|i3N> Thank you bazhang that's all I need :) If I uninstall it though, can I split the partition and stuff and do true dual boot from the CD? I am familiar with this stuff but don't know much bout linux swap partitions and junk.
[02:21] <dejan_> omg
[02:21] <dejan_> pls
[02:21] <dejan_> now i cant watch videos at all
[02:21] <bazhang> dejan_, it turned off compiz
[02:21] <dejan_> bazhang: pls help
[02:21] <dejan_> i did metacity how to tur on?
[02:21] <dejan_> pls
[02:21] <dejan_> tell me
[02:21] <A|i3N> (and no i don't mean dual boot from the CD, .... installed from the cd lol)
[02:21] <bazhang> dejan_, stop with the enter key
[02:21] <dejan_> ok but pls tell me hot to turn that on?
[02:21] <bazhang> dejan_, be patient
[02:22] <xelister> Ubuntu is bricking itself
[02:22] <DasEi> dejan: calm down a little, and phrase on technical issues
[02:22] <AnubArack>      Package chromium-browser is not installed, so not removed --- i have chrome dev channel not cromium
[02:22] <dejan_> bazhang: ok so i did metacity --replace now how to turn that back on pls?
[02:22] <bazhang> A|i3N, you want to migrate the wubi install to a real install? resizde it? or just remove it
[02:22] <dejan_> dashua: ok
[02:22] <xelister> cant people write a system that boots itself at least... https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/grub2/+bug/477430
[02:23] <[segfault]> dejan_: alt-f2 "compiz --replace" will turn compiz back on
[02:23] <dejan_> anyone? pls now i cant watch videos after i did alt f2 metacity --replace
[02:23] <bazhang> dejan_, you want flash to run well in fullscreen? its not going to happen.
[02:23] <bazhang> dejan_, download it for better , though
[02:23] <dejan_> thanks now i can watch porn in fullscreen again
[02:23] <bazhang> dejan_, that makes zero sense
[02:23] <[segfault]> *facepalm*
[02:24] <bazhang> !guidelines > dejan_
[02:24] <A|i3N> bazhang - I want the option to do all three. LOL. Just need to know how, cause windows is only giving me an uninstall option. I will more then likely uninstall and do a true dual boot.

[02:27] <jnbptst> i asked a question a few hours ago about some issues copying files from ubuntu to mac os using an external hard drive
[02:27] <jnbptst> it appears that the issue is due to the fact that ubuntu is case sensitive while mac os is not
[02:27] <jnbptst> and that there are some subfolders that have similar names
[02:27] <jnbptst> so it screws up when i try to copy them back on ma

[02:33] <xelister> without stupid grub2 bug  that bricks it... https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/grub2/+bug/634639
[02:33] <A|i3N> bazhang - ok So ... say I were to just trash this installation. Boot up from the CD. Can I do all the partitioning I need from the install CD, resize/split/whatever I need and just do a clean install with a dual boot? That'd save me a lot of crap. lol. There's nothing I need in my current install.
[02:34] <jnbptst> segfault: i'm afraid i don't quite understand... could you be more explicit? what could "break"
[02:35] <[segfault]> jnbptst: well do the directory names matter to some application or are they arbitrary?
[02:35] <[segfault]> jnbptst: if it is just data like photos, music, and videos, for example...
[02:36] <jnbptst> segfault: I think it's just data. like mp3 files spread between two folders spelled almost alike
[02:36] <jnbptst> segfault: if I found a way to identify similar folder names and rename them without having to visually search, that'd be great
[02:37] <bazhang> A|i3N, sure you can
[02:37] <bazhang> A|i3N, the installer will see your windows partition and place next to it
[02:38] <A|i3N> ok good. I like to work smarter and not harder. LOL. How do ya keep up with all the questions baz lol
[02:38] <[segfault]> jnbptst: well keep in mind that I am not a command line guru, so maybe we could get some help here, but you could do "find /myfiles > myfilelist" and then process that list to sort, compare, and then rename duplicate files to append an underscore or something.  it would involve awk, sed, grep, etc, which I only know how to use in their very basic forms.
[02:38] <bob__> pauljw: do you like classical? (I'm listening to Walkure, act 2)
[02:38] <Guest17880> who here is upgrading to natty narwhai
[02:38] <bazhang> A|i3N, tab complete    a| <tab> highilights you
[02:39] <jnbptst> segfault: could Unison do the job more easily maybe?
[02:39] <bazhang> Guest17880, people in #ubuntu+1
[02:39] <[segfault]> jnbptst: it might actually be a good question for the gurus over at #linux.  Never heard of unison, sorry. :/
[02:39] <A|i3N> I didn't mean literally but thanks LOL i meant you get so many and you seem to be here all the time, yer a busy man :)
[02:39] <bazhang> A|i3N, welcome, but tab complete really is the answer
[02:41] <A|i3N> Well yer one smart person bazhang :) thank you for all your help! It's people like you that helped me learn DOS back in the day, now I'm on a mission to learn linux lol probably should have got into it earlier
[02:41] <Guest17880> why cant you just answer it heah
[02:41] <DasEi> jnbptst: man diff
[02:41] <harisund> Running "file" on a particular file gives me "Little-endian UTF-16 Unicode text" ... I am unable to grep anything in it. How do I convert it into regular ASCII?
[02:42] <bazhang> Guest17880, no polling here, for one.  also #ubuntu+1 is the natty support channel
[02:42] <A|i3N> so you'll probably see me around here a lot ;)
[02:42] <bazhang> !manual | A|i3N this may help
[02:42] <Dr_Willis> That Manual is going to be so out of date for the next release. :)
[02:43] <[segfault]> Guest17880: there are over 1400 of us, do you really want to see that kind of spam? I don't
[02:43] <jnbptst> DasEi: man diff?
[02:43] <Osmodivs> Hello. Does anyone knows where to find the ppa for LibBoosy? I am trying to install 1.44 (Ubuntu 10.10 has 1.42) and in the libboost website they only have 1.46, How can I install 1.44?
[02:43] <DasEi> !info diff | jnbptst
[02:43] <A|i3N> *saves that* I'm more of an advanced computer user, so once I learn something it's there, but I guess it might help to actually read the instructions ;) Not one to read the user manual though LOL
[02:44] <DasEi> jnbptst: enter  man diff in terminal for sorting similar named, different files
[02:44] <jnbptst> nice
[02:44] <jnbptst> thanks!
[02:44] <bazhang> A|i3N, also the help.ubuntu.com and ubuntu wiki are invaluable tools as well as ubuntuforums.org
[02:44] <A|i3N> But there's a lot of stuff I don't understand about linux so it'll be of help :)
[02:44] <A|i3N> like what are all those dang folders for LOL :)
[02:44] <bazhang> A|i3N, yep, and here of course

[02:46] <UbuntuDave> anyone have sucess with G13 logitech gamepad and ubuntu 10.10?
[02:46] <A|i3N> I'm hoping one day Linux will be so easy to use that major software companies start making ports for linux for people that use it. That's be awesome. Buy the windows software, download a free port. hehe.
[02:46] <Abhijit> A|i3N, linux is alredy enouth easy to be used by any person
[02:47] <DasEi> A|i3N: is so already, more often other way round
[02:47] <Dr_Willis> A|i3N:  ive allready seen some companies do that.
[02:47] <Dr_Willis> Ive rarely found a need to buy software for linux, most all the work i need to do  can be done with allready avail free/gpl/oss apps.
[02:47] <Cody3290> hello
[02:47] <Osmodivs> Abhijit: Thx. But, does that means I am gonna have to download each one of them? I was thinking of adding an adress to the USC and then automatically updated, is it posible?
[02:48] <Abhijit> Osmodivs, no idea. try adding them.
[02:48] <A|i3N> Yea, true. Except when you have to get into the terminal for something. But windows is confusing enough for the complete novice so linux isn't much different to them.
[02:48] <Abhijit> !ppa | Osmodivs
[02:48] <Dr_Willis> Corey-needhelp:  You could 'zero' the drive via use of dd, and repartion/reformat.
[02:48] <Cody3290> UsingGParted, if i delete a partition, does th space automatically get redistributed?
[02:48] <Dr_Willis> Cody3290:  no it does not. that wouldent make sence.
[02:49] <Cody3290> So, what happens to the space?
[02:49] <Corey-needhelp> Dr_Willis, i believe i tried that, ACtionParsnip gave me the command
[02:49] <Cody3290> It disappears?
[02:49] <overclucker> Cody3290: it sits there
[02:49] <[segfault]> Cody3290: it remains unallocated
[02:49] <jnbptst> DasEi: diff seems to allow comparison of files/folders which you've already identified as being similar, but can it make you find similarly named files/folders amid a whealth of data?
[02:49] <Yaurielchino> Hi
[02:49] <A|i3N> I'm surprised blizzard hasn't released a WoW port with it's millions of players lol. I don't even play but I'm trying to get it to work on my uncle's computer hehe
[02:49] <Osmodivs> Abhijit, Well, thx anyway, those are .deb files, I was looking for a ppa address, but I guess I am gonna have to download each one of them, one by one
[02:49] <DasEi> jnbptst: yes, by ls command
[02:49] <DasEi> jnbptst: man ls

[02:50] <Ritlee> A|i3N, wish i could remember where i read about it, but somewhere some one did some studies and found Ubuntu was an OS easier to learn for some one that hasn't used a computer before than winblows
[02:50] <Cody3290> Ok. Lets say I want to install XP, and HTEN ubuntu, but I already have both on my disc. Can I format  the entire disc? If so, how? Can I just delete all the partitions and it will make one giant unallocated spot?
[02:50] <bob__> A|i3N: there are Linux manuals (pdf) out there - I downloaded one
[02:50] <Cody3290> I'm on a LiveCD, btw
[02:50] <fisix> anybody know how to get screenlets working on 10.10?
[02:50] <A|i3N> yea that doesn't surprise me too much Ritlee
[02:50] <DasEi> jnbptst: it goes through subdirs, gives an alphabetical output and can, f.e display last access or size , too
[02:50] <Ritlee> A|i3N, as for WoW, blizzard bans all accounts using wine to run WoW on linux
[02:51] <UbuntuDave> ritlee: incorrect
[02:51] <Ritlee> UbuntuDave, have they changed their policies?
[02:51] <A|i3N> Ritlee - sure about that??! UbuntuDave enlighten me lol
[02:51] <Cody3290> How di I format my drive?
[02:51] <nit-wit> fisix, whats going on it is just a install generally
[02:51] <UbuntuDave> Ritlee: i have played WOW on wine for years, and there was even a blue post on blizzard forums awhile back
[02:52] <bazhang> Cody3290, to install ubuntu?
[02:52] <Ritlee> UbuntuDave, when i was playing WoW, they claimed everyone using linux to play, was using it to cheat
[02:52] <Cody3290> To install WinXP, and HTEN ubuntu
[02:52] <Cody3290> I'm having trouble doing the reverse
[02:52] <jnbptst> DasEi: thanks. not very familiar with command line so this is proving a bit challenging
[02:52] <Cody3290> so I want to start afresh and install the winblows first

[02:52] <bazhang> Cody3290, use the xp installer, then the ubuntu one

[02:52] <Cody3290> I know.
[02:52] <fisix> that's what's going on

[02:52] <xangua> with gparted Cody3290
[02:52] <Cody3290> gparted
[02:53] <Cody3290> do I just delete all the partitions?
[02:53] <nit-wit> fisix have you tried the menu

[02:53] <Cody3290> I am on LiveCD, I have GParted loaded up. Now what?
[02:54] <Abhijit> bazhang, what is xp installer? link please
[02:54] <fisix> nit-wit, what do you mean by the menu?
[02:54] <bazhang> Abhijit, ##windows for that
[02:54] <fisix> http://paste.ubuntu.com/579102/ nit-wit
[02:54] <Abhijit> O_o
[02:54] <Abhijit> bazhang, you just said to use xp installer above? i thout its some kind of software to be used on linux to install xp in vm?
[02:55] <bazhang> Abhijit, nope, he wants to dual boot xp and ubuntu
[02:55] <Cody3290> He meant the WinXP CD, i think
[02:55] <Corey-needhelp> hm
[02:55] <Abhijit> bazhang, ohhh ok nvm
[02:55] <Cody3290> How would I format the drive then? Is there an option to format it or do I just delete all the partitions?
[02:55] <DasEi> jnbptst: for instance to a textfile for better readability: ls -lar ~/Desktop  > ~/Desktop/myDesk.txt
[02:55] <bazhang> Cody3290, mount the partitions then delete them
[02:56] <Cody3290> do I delete the partition that has "filesystem Extended" and "linux-swap" as well?
[02:56] <nit-wit> fisix, Not sure why it is not working try purging it then reinstalling, the command should work, There is a icon for it in accessories.
[02:56] <Cody3290> They have little keys next to them.
[02:56] <bazhang> Cody3290, yes
[02:56] <jnbptst> DasEi: so in the end it's still a kind of manual search; no way to automatically merge similarly-named folders into a consolidated folder?
[02:57] <Cody3290> bazhang: When I press delete on them, nothing happens
[02:57] <Sega_dude> Is it safe for me to update Wubi 10.04 to 10.10 using the update manager?
[02:57] <DasEi> jnbptst: you can pipe, sort , search append, truncate, whatever.. man locate,find,sort...
[02:57] <bazhang> Cody3290, be sure they are mounted; you really are better off doing this with the windows installer disk
[02:58] <bazhang> Sega_dude, sure
[02:58] <jt13> can anyone tell me how to set up multiple machines (3) all running 10.10 to automatically share all multi media files? Also, one of the machines is set up as dual boot with only a 20 gig partition for the operating systems and a ntfs partition containing all the media files i.e movies and music.
[02:58] <fisix> hey nit-wit , it doesn't work through Applications > accessories
[02:58] <Cody3290> How do I mount them?
[02:58] <bazhang> jt13, nfs share?
[02:58] <fisix> nit-wit, how do i purge?
[02:58] <Sega_dude> k thanks bazhang
[02:58] <Cody3290> WinXP only lets me do partitions, it doesn't let me choose to format the entire disk
[02:58] <jt13> bazhang, ??
[02:58] <bazhang> jt13, network file shares?
[02:59] <bazhang> jt13, or did you want a streaming media server like mediatomb et al
[02:59] <DasEi> jnbptst: you ask to far in the wild, mv lets you move within subdirs, but carefull with similar named ones without sorting beforehand
[02:59] <jt13> bazhang, yes i just want to share over the network
[02:59] <DasEi> too*
[02:59] <nit-wit> fisix, sudo apt-get purge packagename
[02:59] <jnbptst> DasEi: sorry I'm not sure I understand clearly
[02:59] <jt13> maybe it will help if i explain what i am trying to do bazhang
[03:00] <bazhang> jt13, I thought you wanted to share all media ie a streaming server
[03:00] <jnbptst> DasEi: basically it's all raw data, nothing linked to programs, so there wouldn't be any harm force-merging everything
[03:00] <fisix> nit-wit, i'm gonna follow the purge by sudo apt-get install screenlets. sound good for trial #2?
[03:00] <blakbird> hi all
[03:00] <jnbptst> DasEi: just music, photos etc
[03:01] <nit-wit> fisix, may have just been a borked download.
[03:01] <jt13> bazhang,  I have three machines all running 10.10. My main machine is connected to my 50" tv and it has a 280 gig ntfs partition containing alot of movies. I would like to set it up so that all computers on my wireless network can access these files as well as the media files on each other
[03:02] <UbuntuDave> whats the wine channel anyone know?
[03:02] <blakbird> big stuff huh
[03:02] <bazhang> UbuntuDave, #winehq
[03:02] <UbuntuDave> thanks
[03:02] <DasEi> jnbptst: so first run fdupes on the whole original dir, rename if needed and then rsyng it all together
[03:02] <fisix> nit-wit, i don't think so, this is the 3rd time i've tried uninstalling/reinstalling
[03:02] <DasEi> rsync*
[03:03] <maddog_2009> hello
[03:03] <DasEi> hi
[03:03] <bob__> jt13: movies copy to ubuntu easily -no converting
[03:03] <Cody3290> Is there something for linux like Belarc Advisor?
[03:04] <bazhang> Cody3290, what does that do
[03:04] <jt13> bob__ I am aware of this. I am trying to setup network file sharing so all the computers can see the movies and music that are on one another
[03:04] <Cody3290> Audits your PC and gives a report of all the hardware you have
[03:05] <Cody3290> So in case WinXP PnP misses some stuff you can manually download drivers and stuff based on what hte report says vs. what your device manager says
[03:05] <bazhang> Cody3290, sudo lshw
[03:05] <Iatagore> Greetings, are there any options for lpr to suppress the GUI?
[03:05] <Cody3290> Like I know for a fact WinXP doesnt detect my atheros wlan
[03:05] <Cody3290> hmm
[03:05] <bazhang> Cody3290, not really needed for ubuntu though
[03:05] <Cody3290> ok thanks bazhang :)
[03:05] <Cody3290> Yea but I'm gonna dualboot winXP

[03:32] <skullboy> nit-wit: ok but it is black in the left coner i want it transparent in the right coner
[03:32] <bazhang> skullboy, ubuntuforums has a great conky beginners guide
[03:32] <dada_dede> somebody here has taken a hotplog while doing the bootstrap?
[03:32] <nit-wit> skullboy, you will need to find scripts for cool looking ones or build it the scripts are easier. they go in a text file named .conkyrc in home
[03:32] <culser> kacpi_notify is using 88% cpu, how can i disable, please advise
[03:32] <bazhang> skullboy, conky beginner , its the first link
[03:33] <nit-wit> bazhang, thanks
[03:33] <iszak> culser, kpill "kacpi_notify" in terminal :D
[03:33] <culser> kpill?
[03:33] <iszak> pkill*
[03:33] <culser> you mean kill iszak
[03:33] <iszak> nope
[03:34] <iszak> culser, pkill - look up or signal processes based on name and other attributes
[03:34] <culser> iszak ok thank you i will try great
[03:34] <cactusfrog_> hey anyone got any good keybord recomendations
[03:34] <iszak> i mean just to be safe maybe pgrep it first
[03:34] <W43372> How do I get permission to access files on an HDD when I'm using a live CD to recover files before installing Ubuntu?
[03:34] <cactusfrog_> wirelesss
[03:35] <iszak> cactusfrog_, Logitech MK710
[03:35] <dada_dede> why the fuck isn't there any decent movie player for ubuntu?
[03:35] <test23> hi, anyone know a solution/workaround to 10.10 freezing while logging off, when more than one user is logged in?
[03:35] <iszak> dada_dede, licensing issues probably, get VLC
[03:35] <[segfault]> cactusfrog_: iszak: +1 Got the MK700
[03:35] <IdleOne> !language | dada_dede
[03:36] <bazhang> dada_dede, stop the cursing
[03:36] <iszak> test23, try using command like to shutdown? shutdown -P now
[03:36] <iszak> test23, or log off for that matter
[03:36] <iszak> cactusfrog_, I never use the media keys, but work flawlessly never installed any drivers for it, just tested
[03:36] <dada_dede> hi bazhang i came from a ghetto. it's the standard language here.
[03:36] <iszak> except the audio
[03:36] <cactusfrog_> [segfault]:  yeah on ubuntu those don't usally work
[03:36] <test23> the screen goes black, and i cant input from mouse or kbd
[03:36] <dada_dede> thanks iszak i'll see if i get the mofo running here with the subtitles
[03:37] <culser> iszak - pkill does not work
[03:37] <test23> sometimes, 3 finger salute works, but mostly, i have to hard reboot
[03:37] <cactusfrog_> [segfault]:  are logotec the best keybords usally?
[03:37] <culser> kill does not work.
[03:37] <dada_dede> hey, what happened here?
[03:37] <bazhang> dada_dede, this is not the ghetto so keep it family friendly
[03:37] <[segfault]> cactusfrog_: worked right out of the box, so logitech must be doing something right now. used to be a pain with a lot of logitech stuff.  I like the wireless mouse that comes with the MK710/MK700.. super scroll wheel.
[03:37] <W43372> How do I get permission to back up my home folder if I'm trying to recover files using a live CD?
[03:37] <culser> kacpi_notify is using 88% cpu, i have tried kill, pkill nothing works
[03:37] <iszak> culser, probably can't find it, pgrep for it
[03:37] <iretch> is there any kind of best standard for mapping the F-keys to brightness, volume settings etc?
[03:37] <dada_dede> family friendly your momma!
[03:38] <cactusfrog_> [segfault]: yeah already have one of those, nice because ajustible
[03:38] <test23> i thought many ppl faced this issue
[03:38] <culser> izsak, why i am using pgrep?
[03:38] <nit-wit> culser, killall
[03:38] <iszak> culser, it's easier than ps aux | grep "string"
[03:39] <saintbasil> Question: I get a mount error (http://pastebin.com/73k0HW2M) whenever I connect ANY external HDD to my computer via USB, but all printers work fine that way. What's the problem?
[03:40] <culser> iszak i know the process id
[03:40] <iszak> so then kill it
[03:40] <culser> nit-wit - what is the syntax of killall
[03:40] <iszak> man killall
[03:40] <Yoinx> W43372, this guide is a little old... but it probably still applies https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DataRecovery
[03:40] <[segfault]> culser: you may need to 'sudo killall' or 'sudo kill -9 <processid>' it if it isn't a process you own
[03:40] <nit-wit> culser, it is just a kill command
[03:41] <nit-wit> saintbasil, is sdb a hd and is it a ntfs
[03:41] <Yoinx> W43372, this one should help if your data was encrypted. https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EncryptedPrivateDirectory
[03:42] <culser> acpi for instants , i can kill it but it comes back as seen in top
[03:42] <saintbasil> nit-wit: ntfs i believe
[03:42] <nit-wit> saintbasil, looks corrupted a bad block hit, do you have a windows setup to initiate a chkdsk
[03:43] <culser> i cannot use killall - it will take my system down.
[03:43] <fizy[laptop]> how would i go about making evolution access my gmail account without it messing it up? i still want to use gmail.com to check my email, and i know that one of the 2 email protocols deletes the emails from the web version as it downloads them locally. i dont want that. i want it to just act as if it was a built in chrome window with my gmail pulled up
[03:44] <iszak> [segfault], is your volume up a bit buggy on the keyboard?
[03:44] <th0r> fizy[laptop]: you want to use imap
[03:44] <saintbasil> nit-wit: dont think anything is corrupted, as it happens to both a music player and an external HDD. I do have a windows partition on my ubuntu here a well, but ran chkdisk on it yesterday
[03:44] <sendliquid> how do i get my dell webcam to work
[03:44] <lionfaggot> how do i get my usb mic to work family
[03:44] <bastidrazor> fizy[laptop]: that is a gmail option to not delete the messages. i use gmail and evolution in that way.
[03:44] <[segfault]> iszak: no, everything works great, media keys included.. only thing I would change would be to not have to use fn-break to sleep the pc.
[03:45] <Yoinx> yeah, i use Imap... doesnt delete my mails on the server.
[03:45] <lionfaggot> why cant i use usb mic in ubuntu
[03:45] <saintbasil> nit-wit: checked in gparted, sdb (the external hdd) is actually hfs+, originally formatted on a mac
[03:45] <lionfaggot> i try kicking my mic
[03:45] <fizy[laptop]> imap? thats what i thot. can anyone give me the stuff to put in evolution? or the webpage that has the numbers?
[03:45] <lionfaggot> it didnt work
[03:45] <culser> what file is loading kacpi_notify kernal command at the time of boot, where would look in ubuntu 10.10
[03:45] <fizy[laptop]> lol lionfaggot
[03:45] <saintbasil> nit-wit: but this happens with a sony walkman usb, so cant be that
[03:45] <bastidrazor> !gmail | fizy[laptop]
[03:46] <lionfaggot> wats gmail
[03:46] <sendliquid> where do i get my gmail drivers
[03:46] <nit-wit> saintbasil, not sure really, sorry.
[03:46] <sendliquid> my arch linux is broken
[03:46] <xangua> sendliquid: /join #arch
[03:46] <fizy[laptop]> you know, this bot is starting to grow on me. i feel like somethings wrong if i dont come here with a question so common that its preproggrammed into a bot
[03:46] <lionfaggot> u use linux at mcdonalds?
[03:47] <Yoinx> dunno fizy, evolution set itself up when I tossed my gmail address in.
[03:47] <Yoinx> ...shouldnt be too hard to get it working
[03:47] <culser> what file is loading kacpi_notify at the time of boot, in ubuntu 10.10
[03:48] <W43372> Yoinx: I don't know if it was encrypted or not
[03:48] <jeeves__> how can I get my "task bar" back on my desktop?  the bar is there, but there are no icons for the running programs
[03:48] <W43372> Yoinx, I don't remember if I chose to encrypt ir or not whein I was installing
[03:50] <iszak> [segfault], audio up key is a bit buggy for me, hmm

[03:52] <nit-wit> SuperPaco69, run this script and pastebin it.  http://bootinfoscript.sourceforge.net/
[03:52] <SuperPaco69> nit-wit, thaks let me see that page if helps
[03:53] <nit-wit> SuperPaco69, it will produce a text file so pastebin it. It is not a fix but a system outline for finding the fix.
[03:54] <SuperPaco69> nit-wit, is not taking the command :s
[03:55] <aroman> anyone have any idea why is doesn't have any effect: sudo gconftool-2 --direct --config-source xml:readwrite:/etc/gconf/gconf.xml.defaults --type string --set /apps/docky-2/Docky/Interface/DockPreferences/Dock2/Autohide "Foobar"
[03:55] <nit-wit> SuperPaco69, download the script drg it to the desk top and run this command in Ubuntu sudo bash ~/Desktop/boot_info_script*.sh
[03:55] <nit-wit> *drag
[03:56] <SuperPaco69> nit-wit, my ubuntu will pass from the stage grub rescue> I am now in a windows computer...
[03:56] <jinwei_> where is the bot
[03:56] <bazhang> jinwei_, why
[03:56] <SuperPaco69> there is no way to down load it I am stock in grub nit-wit
[03:57] <nit-wit> SuperPaco69, boot a live Ubuntu cd for running the script. I could guess your problem do you want that or a informed answer.:)
[03:58] <SuperPaco69> dont get you on the last part nit-wit but let me boot form a live cd
[03:58] <sendliquid> says my gmail is missing its drivers
[03:58] <nit-wit> SuperPaco69, cool the script just keeps it from a guessing game.
[03:59] <bazhang> sendliquid, that makes no sense
[04:01] <EvilPhoenix> sendliquid:  if you're on an Arch system, ask in #arch, not #ubuntu
[04:02] <ruan> is there a media player which allows buffer configuration?
[04:02] <MK`> Hey guys, questions: I installed Ubuntu on the 2nd half of my hdd, but now I find myself never using Windows and want to shrink the ntfs partition and add it to my ext4 partition. Can I do this without damaging the ntfs partition/windows installation, and can I "merge" it with the ext4 partition from the front? or would it need to be separate?
[04:03] <oldos2er> hello
[04:04] <nit-wit> MMk, you can't merge them but the ubuntu if moved from the front will probably need grub reloaded to the mbr
[04:05] <MK`> hm
[04:05] <WeThePeople> i am using a slower computer, what would be a good file format to play videos in
[04:06] <nit-wit> MK`, you can move any partition into a unallocated left by moving another out of the way, not merge, is that what you mean?
[04:07] <nit-wit> WeThePeople, how slow is the computer I don't think the file type is going to matter much.
[04:08] <Semitones> What file system should I use for USB flash drive: fat16 (read speed), fat32 (?), or ext2 (??)
[04:08] <WeThePeople> nit-wit: 500Mhz 320Mb ram
[04:08] <bazhang> Semitones, 32
[04:08] <nit-wit> WeThePeople, wahts the distro your running
[04:08] <nit-wit> *whats
[04:08] <bazhang> Semitones, if you mean usb stick
[04:08] <bazhang> Semitones, otherwise ntfs if shared with windows
[04:09] <WeThePeople> nit-wit: Lubuntu
[04:09] <A|i3N> so, old question i had a while back that nobody was able to answer. Never put it in this format though. Windows keeps my cell phone dialup connection alive just fine and dandy. Ubuntu wants to drop it off every minute. Any ideas?
[04:09] <Semitones> bazhang, yeah -- it's mostly for trying lubuntu
[04:09] <Semitones> as a startup disk
[04:09] <bazhang> Semitones, usb stick?
[04:09] <Semitones> tes
[04:09] <AnubArack> anyone here uses chrome or chromium ?
[04:09] <Semitones> yes
[04:09] <bazhang> Semitones, whatever unetbootin does then
[04:09] <Semitones> bazhang, haha, here we go!
[04:10] <Semitones> ill let you know what it chooses
[04:10] <A|i3N> (I ask because I'm in windows now on mirc and well, haven't had any problems - at all.)
[04:10] <bazhang> AnubArack, ask a n actual question please
[04:10] <a5413a9e4> hi
[04:10] <nit-wit> WeThePeople, Lubuntu is good but with that small of a cpu and ram I would be using puppy or another small distro
[04:11] <nit-wit> WeThePeople, your choice though, if you have some other area to run another OS to try out.
[04:12] <AnubArack> bazhang, don't get snotty with me kid, i'm in a very bad mood. And learn some semantics, that was an actual question
[04:12] <sacarlson> A|i3N: I wonder if it just needs a little data moving over time.  keep alive normaly just sends a ping every 2 minits.  I guess you could try a script that pings google.com every 60 secounds and see if you see any improvments
[04:12] <bazhang> AnubArack, just polling wont get  a response, please ask an actual issue needs to be resolved question
[04:12] <doug9> Hi.
[04:13] <bittyx-laptop> Hi all, little question! I'm running Ubuntu 10.10 on my laptop. Before i go to sleep i always go to System->Preferences->Power Management, and select "Put display to sleep after" 0:01 (ie. to turn my display off after a minute). Then when I wake up, and wake the display as well, I set it back to 1:00 (1 hour). Is there a better way to do this? E.g. a keyboard shortcut that puts my display to sleep instantly.
[04:13] <EnigmaticCoder> I'm trying to cross compile Pioneers to Windows XP and Mac OSX. Does anyone know how to do this given the source code, a configure script, and make?
[04:13] <A|i3N> sacarlson - OK I am a novice, gotta tell me how to do this or send me a faq or something LOL
[04:13] <jrib> bittyx-laptop: I use: sleep 2; xset dpms force off
[04:13] <sacarlson> A|i3N: oh I guess you don't need a script it's builtin to ping with    ping -i 2 google.com  it will ping google every 2 secounds
[04:14] <doug9> Does the internal wireless override the ethernet input of a radio card?
[04:14] <Semitones> bittyx-laptop, yes! there is. open up keyboard shortcuts, and you can set your own :) (I have mine set to ctrl alt . )
[04:14] <A|i3N> oh ok thank you sacarlson hehe that sounds like a solution
[04:14] <Semitones> bittyx-laptop, oh yeah -- you have to make a custom shortcut -- use the command jrib suggested
[04:15] <sacarlson> A|i3N: I'm not sure it will help or not but it's worth a try
[04:15] <WeThePeople> what type of file is a low bit rate video format
[04:15] <Semitones> jrib, dang, that's smart with the sleep 2, I'm going to use that :)
[04:15] <jt13> I'm sure everyone is familiar with the cooliris 3d wall add-on for fire fox but does anyone know of a image viewer with similar effects for local images stored on the computer 10.10
[04:15] <A|i3N> sacarlson So I just open terminal and let that run?
[04:15] <sacarlson> A|i3N: yup
[04:16] <bittyx-laptop> Semitones: but i don't have "put display to sleep" in my keyboard shortcut actions? and jrib: I could run that from a terminal and it would work, right?
[04:16] <A|i3N> sacarlson thanks I'm gonna log back into ubu and try that :)
[04:16] <jrib> bittyx-laptop: yeah, give it a try
[04:16] <Yoinx> A|i3N, is it a 3g cell connection?
[04:16] <Nicolas_Leonidas> hey
[04:16] <A|i3N> Yoinx yea it's metroPCS
[04:16] <Semitones> bittyx-laptop, you can do it from terminal, which would be easiest. But in keyboard shortcuts you can make custom shortcuts, and that's what I did :)
[04:16] <doug9> Anyone know if the internal wireless overrides an external wifi card?
[04:16] <bittyx-laptop> jrib: awesome, thank you!
[04:16] <Nicolas_Leonidas> I just installed ubuntu server, does it not come with X server?
[04:17] <bittyx-laptop> Semitones: yeah, that's what i'll do now.
[04:17] <bittyx-laptop> thanks both of you!
[04:17] <bazhang> Nicolas_Leonidas, no
[04:17] <jt13> I'm sure everyone is familiar with the cooliris 3d wall add-on for fire fox but does anyone know of a image viewer with similar effects for local images stored on the computer 10.10
[04:17] <Semitones> np!
[04:17] <bazhang> jt13, perhaps a compiz plugin
[04:18] <jt13> hmmm
[04:18] <leaveboy> hmmm
[04:20] <oldos2er> quiet tonight
[04:21] <sacarlson> doug9: no it should just see two wifi nics
[04:21] <HaPK_PerCar> I'm having promes with ubuntu one... whenever I try to sync my files in this computer they end up having a *.u1conflict extension, and the Xorg process eats up half my processor... What can I do?
[04:21] <bazhang> HaPK_PerCar, perhaps #ubuntuone can help
[04:22] <HaPK_PerCar> bazhang, hmmm, I'll try that
[04:23] <rigved> HaPK_PerCar: if nothing helps, then reset your connection settings to ubuntuone
[04:23] <shmup> ubuntu 10.10. samsung rf510. getting feedback on my mic. like, if i put my hand near or over it, makes a reeeeal high pitched noise. same when i close it.
[04:23] <Zopiac> how do I ssh into a specific computer on a network?
[04:23] <shmup> i attempted to fix this by just muting the mic. not working.
[04:23] <HaPK_PerCar> rigved, I tried that already
[04:23] <shmup> can you suggest anything else? i'm not sure how i could go about truely disabling my mic.
[04:24] <HaPK_PerCar> rigved, even deinstalled and reinstalled ubuntu one
[04:24] <rigved> Zopiac: ssh <ip_addr_here>
[04:24] <shmup> same when i close my laptop, is what i meant. as it's closing you get the high pitched squeeel from speakers meeting mic hole, i guess.
[04:24] <rigved> HaPK_PerCar: how did you reset it?
[04:24] <Zopiac> rigved: how to i tell it to connect to one computer as opposed to another on that IP?
[04:25] <HaPK_PerCar> rigved, I "eliminated" the connection from this machine to ubuntu one's service
[04:25] <rigved> Zopiac: use ifconfig on the computer to find out its ip. no two computers have the same ip
[04:25] <Zopiac> rigved: it's the same internet IP
[04:25] <Zopiac> rigved: going through a router...
[04:26] <HaPK_PerCar> rigved, and since I couln't reconnec to it I uninstalled it
[04:26] <skullboy> how do i host a pop3 and stmp
[04:27] <skullboy> how do i host a pop3 and stmp
[04:27] <[TK]D-Fender> skullboy: Go read a guide on setting up an MTA like sendmail, postfix, exim, etc
[04:28] <bittyx-laptop> jrib: hey, i've tried that. if i put my shortcut as "xset dpms force off" (no quotes), the screen turns off, and on immediately (it probably reacts to KeyUp when i let go of my shortcut), unless i press the shortcut *really* fast. however, when i put "sleep 1; xset dpms force off" (no quotes again) and press my shortcut, nothing happens. if i put the last command with quotes i get an error (error executing command). what gives?
[04:28] <skullboy> [TK]D-Fender: can u send the link
[04:28] <[TK]D-Fender> skullboy: www.google.com <- they have THOUSANDS.
[04:29] <doug9> sacarlson:  I'm so far not able to get onto the internet with my new engenius ecb3500.  Our landlord has a signal with password.  I can use it with the laptops internal wifi.  I can get the 3500 to see and accept the key.  But when I return the computer to DHCP and reboot, I still don't have a connection to the internet.
[04:29] <rigved> HaPK_PerCar: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuOne/Bugs
[04:31] <skullboy> [TK]D-Fender: i want a pop3 and stmp server
[04:31] <bazhang> skullboy, on your ubuntu server?
[04:31] <[TK]D-Fender> skullboy: And I jsut gave you the precise names of several.
[04:32] <skullboy> bazhang: i dont have a ubuntu server
[04:32] <neo_> hello world
[04:32] <bazhang> skullboy, and how would you do it then
[04:32] <[TK]D-Fender> skullboy: The kind of names you could.. I dunno ... look for in the ubuntu software center or Synaptic.
[04:32] <amh345> i have a question regarding ssh, but i dont know how to describe it.   i had this working before, but something happened.   i use to have to do ssh some-keypair user@server.com to ssh into my server, then i ran something that added some-keypair to a file so all i needed to do was run ssh  user@server.com.  does anyone know what im talking about?  im trying to google it but cant recall what it's called or how it's done.
[04:32] <[TK]D-Fender> skullboy: And then the kind of names you could .... maybe Google up a how-to for.
[04:33] <skullboy> bazhang: how do i set up a ubuntu server
[04:33] <Nicolas_Leonidas> ok I installed x server using sudo apt-get install xubuntu-desktop
[04:33] <Nicolas_Leonidas> how do I start the GUI now?
[04:33] <bazhang> !lamp > skullboy
[04:33] <shmup> startx
[04:34] <Zopiac> how do I ssh to a specific computer on a network over internet/through router?
[04:34] <Semitones> Zopiac, man ssh, but basically "ssh user@192.168.1.xx
[04:34] <Semitones> "
[04:35] <Semitones> make sure they have ssh installed and enabled and stuff
[04:35] <skullboy> bazhang: so once i get the server up and running how do i host a pop3 and stmp
[04:35] <Zopiac> Semitones but that doesn't work over internet...I need to use the internet IP
[04:35] <Zopiac> otherwise it would try to connect to that computer on the local network
[04:35] <Semitones> oh -- nvm I'm not sure then -- I know I've seen huge ssh guides that describe how to do it though
[04:35] <Zopiac> OK will google some more
[04:35] <bazhang> skullboy, thats out of scope of this channel, you've been given some search terms to follow on your own
[04:35] <Semitones> good luck!
[04:36] <Zopiac> thanks
[04:37] <rigved> Zopiac: use port forwarding
[04:38] <rigved> Zopiac: set the router to forward tcp connections to a random unused port to a specific machine on the local network
[04:38] <Zopiac> rigved: so, comp1 has ssh server set to 22 and comp2 has it as 23, and router has 22 forwarded to comp1 while 23 is forwarded to comp2?
[04:38] <rigved> Zopiac: exactly
[04:38] <Zopiac> OK i kind of thought so but have been unable to test it

[05:04] <bittyx-laptop> just wanted to put that out there

[05:05] <nit-wit> linuxuz3r, what flash have you installed
[05:05] <linuxuz3r> nit-wit, when i view videos on you tube

[05:06] <nit-wit> linuxuz3r, adobe?

[05:06] <linuxuz3r> thats what the repo says
[05:06] <nit-wit> linuxu you need the adobe or gnash run in the terminal sudo apt-get install ubuntu-restricted-extras
[05:07] <amh345> overclucker: ok. i did that.  reran the cat ~/......  and still got a permission denied
[05:07] <linuxuz3r> downloading now
[05:08] <nit-wit> that should add the codecs and the flash needed overall.
[05:09] <overclucker> amh345: you might need to set the permissoins for the .ssh folder itself: chmod 755 ~/.ssh
[05:10] <amh345> overclucker: same error :(  permission denied.   i dont know if this is coming from local or serverside.
[05:10] <amh345> overclucker: i have it feeling it might be on the remote ubuntu server
[05:12] <overclucker> amh345: that could be, you should check the permissions for your home directory, your .ssh directory, and .ssh/known_hosts on the remote host
[05:12] <alkisg> I'm trying to setup a second IP in network-manager, but the GUI forces me to specify a route. Is there any way to not specify a route? If not, which one should I put there, 0.0.0.0 or my IP?

[05:38] <ruan> hmm it just takes a long time to start
[05:38] <ruan> never did that in the past
[05:38] <ruan> Auriga: how did you install it?
[05:38] <needhelp1> i need some help, i have a ton of mp3 files that have no metadata, but are named like .. artist_song.mp3. and then i have a lot that have no metadata but are just like track 4.mp3 .. is there a way i can pull this info from somewhere to have it filled in automatically? the cddatabase thing with easytag doesnt work for me
[05:38] <fizy[laptop]> so yeah is it going too far with the whole hacking thing if i uninstalled cydia and crashed their itouch? i dont think so. i think doing anything less than that is an insult to the name of linux
[05:39] <Auriga> ruan, From within Screenlets itself as in the install button from a .tar.gz
[05:39] <cr4x0r> fizy...wtf
[05:39] <ruan> fizy[laptop]: you're destroying apple :D
[05:39] <cr4x0r> apples only good for uninstalling os x
[05:40] <cassidyjames> fizy[laptop], I used to pull music off of peoples' iPods when they were jailbroken.
[05:40] <cassidyjames> :P

[05:41] <cr4x0r> well, i can google ssh ipod touch in 5 sec... so i win
[05:41] <cassidyjames> fizy[laptop], I'm not sure using a default root password is considered "hacking."
[05:41] <Auriga> ruan, I just tried opening the file, & extracting the contents to the .screenlets location, but again it appears as if it is installed, but it won't start...
[05:41] <rww> !ot | fizy[laptop]
[05:41] <fizy[laptop]> cassidyjames: the default password isnt the ipod password. the ipod password is alpine
[05:42] <trans> hello guys
[05:42] <cassidyjames> Hi trans!
[05:42] <needhelp1> bleh, we better be careful that the TPP doesnt pass, because its updates to the DMCA which they are taking world wide will ban things like jailbreaking
[05:42] <rww> needhelp1: take it to #ubuntu-offtopic, please.
[05:43] <ruan> Auriga: there is a screenlets tool in ubuntu software centre
[05:43] <fizy[laptop]> its kind of funny tho. if it werent for me, they wouldnt even have been on the wifi. im the one who hacked the password every time they change it. they use WEP encrytion, so im not at fault here
[05:43] <win189> RWW do u know how to use samba

[05:43] <fizy[laptop]> rww ok
[05:43] <trans> any idea?

[05:44] <Auriga> ruan, I have that installed already...
[05:44] <ruan> Auriga: did you install it from ubuntu software centre?
[05:44] <Auriga> Yes.
[05:45] <ruan> Auriga: if you go to it in ubuntu software centre, does it tell you where it is?
[05:45] <kaushal> hi
[05:45] <Auriga> How do you mean? Where it is installed?
[05:46] <tohuw> I have a home server I ssh to. My DNS (running on the same server, as it happens), broadcasts a different IP for this server internally (namely, its local IP). So, when I ssh to myserver.example.com from the outside, I get the public IP, but from the inside using the same address, I get the local IP. Here's the problem: the outside IP is stored in known_hosts. How do I also add the inside IP to known_hosts, so it doesn't freak out?
[05:46] <ruan> Auriga: hm, im not sure
[05:46] <ruan> Auriga: can you start it from a terminal?
[05:46] <kaushal>  what type of Point to Point Protocol is Tata Photon Plus ? is it PPPoE or PPPoA ?
[05:47] <Auriga> ruan, The program is installed, I have another screenlet working fine, impulse however won't won't start, it's installed, but won't appear on screen.
[05:48]  * win189 pets rww and thanks him
[05:48] <win189> then hides
[05:49] <Auriga> ruan, It won't run in a terminal but there is a lot of information though...
[05:49] <ruan> Auriga: what information does it give?
[05:50] <Auriga> ruan, still going through it...

[05:59] <sacarlson> jiltdil: you should be able to put both your guest os networks into bridge mode so that they get into the same local net instead of the nat mode
[06:00] <jiltdil> how to do that? and i am sucessfully acess my host os through guest os

[06:11] <tripelb> how do I get the new version of transmission? apt-get update didnt do it. (me be so naive)
[06:11] <juk> !update
[06:11] <tripelb> juk I dont want a new version of ubuntu - read my text
[06:12] <kaushal> checking in again for the query ?
[06:12] <rww> windows_is_gay: Don't use "gay" as a pejorative, please.
[06:12] <xangua> add transmission ppa then tripelb
[06:13] <juk> tripelb: did you read apt-get --help?
[06:13] <leaveboy> flay: 我这一直都在，不过经常性的掉线
[06:14] <windows_is_gay> !jp tsunami > windows_is_gay
[06:14] <tripelb> juk nevermind you are the old-style difficult help. the guys who say reinstall windows.
[06:14]  * leaveboy Opps！ wory channel！
[06:15] <ilea> hi all
[06:15] <dunmanifestin> i need help with compiz
[06:15] <juk> tripelb: from "old-style" help
[06:15] <juk> update - Retrieve new lists of packages
[06:16] <juk> tripelb: dont be naive
[06:16] <dunmanifestin> anybody??
[06:16] <andruHA1123> Hey guys, can anyone tell me why xubuntu is super slow on an older computer, but is really fast in a VMware with the same specs?
[06:16] <ilea> how to add little gadgets on the desktop like a clock, a cpu meeter and a weather gadget?
[06:16] <dunmanifestin> ilea thats easy, just download screenlets
[06:17] <dunmanifestin> im assuming your using ubuntu, you will find it in the package manager
[06:18] <ohzie> andruHA1123: Probably because of video drivers?
[06:18] <ilea> thanks dunmanifestin
[06:18] <juk> tripelb:not sure what you mean in your second sentence
[06:18] <ohzie> andruHA1123: if you have an older computer don't use compositing on xfce. It defeats the purpose of xfce on a slower computer. ( ,_,)
[06:18] <dunmanifestin> no probs ilea. i cannot get my application switcher to work
[06:18] <andruHA1123> ohzie, can i install drivers manually? if so, how?
[06:18] <tripelb> juk, I mean thanks but not right now. I am walking someone through using transmission.
[06:19] <ohzie> andruHA1123: what version of xubuntu are you using?
[06:19] <dunmanifestin> Ive installed compiz, tried to get the cube thingy to work. now the alt tab thing wont work
[06:19] <leaveboy> andruHA1123: how about ubuntu + awesome
[06:20] <andruHA1123> ohzie, i installed Xubuntu as it seemed to use the least ram and still be very functional
[06:20] <RJ_F1> lol. gotta love how chanserv just hands over ops to rww, and rww gives back.
[06:20] <andruHA1123> leaveboy, is that a distro?
[06:20] <juk> tripelb: ah, "spread the word" , nice :)
[06:20] <RJ_F1> dunmanifestin: have you got emerald?
[06:20] <dunmanifestin> no I dont, do i need it?
[06:20] <RJ_F1> I believe so
[06:21] <RJ_F1> do a quick sudo apt-get install emerald
[06:21] <andruHA1123> leaveboy, btw, im new to linux ;P, but learning, so bear with me
[06:21] <RJ_F1> in a terminal
[06:21] <ohzie> RJ_F1: It's generally good practice to only use ops when you need it. That behavior is especially such on freenode, because most people here use sudo and su. =)
[06:21] <dunmanifestin> im on it
[06:21] <ohzie> so, it becomes habiual
[06:21] <ohzie> habitual*
[06:21] <RJ_F1> what, running stuff as root?
[06:22] <dunmanifestin> dowloading..
[06:22] <phreck> huh
[06:23] <kriume> help please what do i do here to continue? hitting enter or try to press the "Ok" button on there doesent work!!!! picture: http://bildr.no/image/841377.jpeg
[06:23] <andruHA1123> ohzie, what distro would you recommend for a computer with 256mbs of ram and 1.2ghz cpu? (im trying to make something like a fileserver with this old PC, but need gui)
[06:23] <xangua> kriume: hit tab
[06:23] <dunmanifestin> something about a firmware-b4343-installer?
[06:23] <ohzie> kriume: click the window for focus and then try to select the ok button with the keyboard
[06:24] <kriume> xangua: haha ok! it worked lol
[06:24] <xangua> !lubuntu  | andruHA1123
[06:24] <ohzie> kriume: xangua's suggestion of tab it on the money
[06:24] <RJ_F1> andru: I would say, Lubuntu
[06:24] <win189> umm question i know this sounds stuped
[06:24] <phreck> andruHA1123, not ubuntu desktop
[06:24] <kriume> its installing now ;P
[06:24] <win189> what is the 755 number for Read and list only
[06:24] <vitorh2m> boa noite
[06:24] <vitorh2m> melhor dizendo
[06:24] <vitorh2m> bom dia
[06:24] <xangua> !pt | vitorh2m
[06:24] <durando> hey guys i have a Marvell 88SE6145 and cant get it to work with ubuntu server at least i beleive this is whats causing issues with booting correctly etc
[06:24] <ohzie> andruHA1123: Ubuntu, even xubuntu, is not good for old things unless you install ubuntu-server than then put a bare minimum gui on top of that.
[06:24] <andruHA1123> phreck, the thing is that i won't be able to configure everything via terminal.. im kinda a newb in linux
[06:24] <SuperPaco69> how can I hack?
[06:25] <dunmanifestin> sub process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1) it says.. that keeps coming up
[06:25] <xangua> SuperPaco69: read and study a lot
[06:25] <ohzie> andruHA1123: I'd suggest ubuntu-server and aptitude install blackbox
[06:25] <ohzie> and go from there
[06:25] <bazhang> SuperPaco69, hack what
[06:25] <RJ_F1> you could install u. server, and then install Xfce on it, which is a lighter version of gnome.
[06:25] <ohzie> SuperPaco69: Be awesome
[06:25] <win189> whats the chmod for Read and list
[06:25] <RJ_F1> essentially create a xubuntu-server
[06:25] <ohzie> win189: there's no list. list is read on the directory
[06:25] <win189> !chmod
[06:25] <SuperPaco69> that is right!
[06:26] <andruHA1123> ohzie, what is blackbox? like a lightweight gui?
[06:26] <Vituz> probably not the right place to come for help regarding this.. but recently upgraded to Natty and somehow broke Vuze... I've tried replacing libswt-gtk-3.5-java already to no avail
[06:26] <dunmanifestin> exit
[06:26] <ohzie> andruHA1123:  very very lightweight gui. It's too lightweight for most people to tolerate. That or tdm are going to be your best friends if you absolutely need some sort of GUI......
[06:26] <win189> nvm i figured it out its 555
[06:26] <bazhang> Vituz, #ubuntu+1 for natty
[06:26] <ohzie> Vituz: :(
[06:26] <Vituz> thanks
[06:27] <RJ_F1> hey, quick question about that, how we get the beta?
[06:27] <ohzie> andruHA1123: out of curiosity, what is the GUI needed for?
[06:27] <Vituz> I doubt its a natty issue anyway
[06:27] <Vituz> I think its a java issue
[06:27] <rww> RJ_F1: ask in #ubuntu+1 ;)
[06:27] <Vituz> but thanks for redirecting me so quickly :)
[06:27] <jiltdil> sacarlson: ok i more ques i have to acess other comp in WAN how to do that. is it is same as like in bridge mode or something different setting for it?
[06:27] <andruHA1123> ohzie, i will need it to set up what I need.. I don't know how to do everything in terminal
[06:29] <ohzie> andruHA1123: Weeeelllllll what things are you doing setup in the GUI, and maybe I can point you in the right direction of where to learn? =) Blackbox+vnc server are going to be great fallbacks if you need the gui, but SSH is faster and runs a lot lighter. :3
[06:29] <ohzie> andruHA1123: Not plugging the OMG GUI ON A SERVER thing, I don't judge, I'm just saying that help is aailable. =P
[06:29] <ohzie> available*
[06:29] <jiltdil> i have to acess other comp in WAN how to do that. is it is same as like in bridge mode or something different setting for it?
[06:29] <jiltdil> using ssh
[06:29] <SuperPaco69> any one know how to hack voip sip protocol with ubuntu?
[06:29] <casey> hey guys. i need some serious help. I am getting VERY frustrated. First and foremost, every time I try to access my home folder via the panel on top, it says error. This happens with documents, computer etc. Please help me find out why this happening.
[06:30] <juk> !please
[06:30] <andruHA1123> ohzie, oh, i would probably uninstall gui once im done configuring what i need
[06:30] <ohzie> casey: Well, what kind of error?
[06:31] <casey> i'll copy verbatum. hold on just a sec
[06:31] <jiltdil> i have to acess other comp in WAN through ssh  how to do that. is it is same as like in bridge mode or something different setting for it
[06:31] <casey> Error: File can not be found
[06:31] <casey> however, is i navigate to it by other means, the file is indeed there.
[06:31] <casey> I just don't know how the path could have got messed up?
[06:32] <andruHA1123> anyway, thanks for the help guys..
[06:32] <cryptodira> i was expecting a password prompt to activate the fglrx drivers.... instead, i get "you are not authorized to perform this action"... what would be the proper cli syntax?
[06:33] <leaveboy> andruHA1123: instal
[06:33] <leaveboy> andruHA1123: install ubuntu live cd
[06:33] <casey> any ideas on why the path could have gotten messed up?
[06:34] <ohzie> casey: I had this problem before on an older install
[06:34] <ohzie> my hard drive was not working very well
[06:34] <htat> When both me and my bro switched to Ubuntu (months apart), we noticed internet took a while longer to respond. I tried disabling the thing that searches for IPv6, but I still get that lag time while "looking up <servername>". what else might be wrong?
[06:34] <andruHA1123> leaveboy, and?
[06:34] <ohzie> it would sort of work sometimes and not work other times.
[06:34] <casey> ohzie: how did you fix it?
[06:34] <casey> it's driving me nuts
[06:34] <ohzie> casey: =\ I reinstalled ubuntu.
[06:34] <ohzie> casey: I back up all my stuff so often that I don't even mess with stuff like that
[06:34] <casey> :(
[06:34] <ohzie> *boom*
[06:34] <ohzie> I'm just like
[06:35] <casey> are you sure thats the only way?
[06:35] <ohzie> casey: Oh surely it isn't. I just didn't bother trying to find the way to do it, because I was lazy and needed my computer to work and didn't want to spend time fixing it.
[06:36] <casey> oh ok
[06:36] <casey> well i guess i'll look more into it
[06:36] <casey> i'm getting so frustrated with all of this
[06:36] <andruHA1123> how about this, whats the lightest linux distro that can run FireFox and OpenOffice?
[06:36] <ohzie> casey: How long have you been using linux?
[06:36] <ohzie> andruHA1123: DSL
[06:36] <casey> ohzie: by any chance, do you know how to use wine to run photoshop 7?
[06:36] <leaveboy> andruHA1123: and don't open 3D，that will work fine
[06:37] <casey> ohzie: about 3 weeks. I'm a big noobie.
[06:37] <cryptodira> i was expecting a password prompt to activate the fglrx drivers.... instead, i get "you are not authorized to perform this action"... what would be the proper cli syntax?    10.10 amd/64
[06:37] <xangua> you can try in #Linux to make polls andruHA1123
[06:37] <andruHA1123> ohzie, i tried dsl and it wouldn't run latest firefox...
[06:37] <ohzie> casey: http://appdb.winehq.org/appview.php?iVersionId=1336 It seems to run fine out of the box.
[06:38] <BlackWeb> Does anyone know if theres a way to defragment a harddrive on linux, My HD use to be only 25% full then Copied alot of backup stuff on it and it went to 60% Full, Which I erased it and its still showed and being 60% Full, I also tried booting into another linux system and running fsck on the HD but still didnt solve the problem
[06:38] <leaveboy> andruHA1123: that means dont install display driver
[06:38] <xangua> i've alrady told you !lubuntu is an option
[06:38] <skulltip> ohzie - better question is which window manager is best to run those
[06:38] <casey> ohzie: isn't that just a trial though?
[06:38] <lickalott> gents...  anyone in here running a znc on ubuntu 10.10 and have successfully used an ipv6 tunnel through tunnelbroker?
[06:38] <casey> or can i use it to enter my product key?
[06:38] <andruHA1123> xangua, thanks, im downloading that already
[06:38] <skulltip> sorry meant andruHA1123
[06:38] <andruHA1123> just looking for option
[06:38] <ohzie> casey: you should be able to put in the product key
[06:39] <lickalott> znc doesn't really matter
[06:39] <TodMore> how do I install two versions of an application, like opera 9 and opera 10 without simply upgrading to 10?
[06:39] <TodMore> can that be done with deb packages?
[06:39] <casey> ohzie: awesome. Thanks for the help. Any ideas on where to point me with the other issue we were taking about?
[06:40] <ohzie> TodMore: I would suggest installing the binary for the second version separarely.
[06:40] <ohzie> TodMore: and not using a deb
[06:40] <BlackWeb> Is there a way to defragment harddrive with ubuntu
[06:40] <dunmanifestin> I have emerald and all the compiz updates but none of my application switchers will work
[06:40] <TodMore> ohzie: so you mean look for a tarball or whatever install?
[06:41] <ohzie> casey: None at all. What I CAN say is that I've had less problems with Ubuntu than I've had with FC and Mandrake, and that Ubuntu is "where it's at" as they say.
[06:41] <ohzie> TodMore: Yes
[06:41] <ohzie> casey: So stick to this distro! Don't be swayed! :P
[06:41] <TodMore> ohzie: thank
[06:42] <casey> ohzie: well i'm glad I at least went with the right linux distro lol ;P. Not just to get "hip" with this linux stuff as they say.
[06:42] <dunmanifestin> how do I get these features to work? application switcher? static aplication switcher? desktop cube?
[06:42] <ubotttu> I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :)
[06:42] <ubotttu> I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :)
[06:42] <ubotttu> I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :)
[06:42] <ubotttu> I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :)

[06:43] <BlackWeb> dunmanifestin do you have your video card installed
[06:43] <leaveboy> casey: distro ？？ what's it mean?
[06:43] <casey> ohzie: Got to go but thanks for the help :D!
[06:43] <casey> leaveboy: stands for distrubution :D
[06:43] <casey> got to go
[06:43] <BlackWeb> leaveboy its the distribution of linux your using
[06:43] <casey> catch you guys later
[06:43] <dunmanifestin> um where do I get drivers for it blackweb? its an ati radeon x1200 if that helps
[06:44] <lickalott> dunmanifestin - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/KeyboardShortcuts
[06:44] <lickalott> 1/4 the way down
[06:44] <BlackWeb> dunmanifestin have you tried googling, what version of ubuntu you using
[06:45] <dunmanifestin> I have spent the whole night googling.. ubuntu 10.10 x64
[06:45] <BlackWeb> in order to get your compiz to work need to install video card then enable desktop effects by right clicking on screen
[06:45] <ohzie> I see a lot of AMD laptops using the ATI 4250's. Do ATI cards actually not suck with linux now? Like, last time I tried an ATI graphics card with linux was a 9700 Pro. It was feelsbadman.jpg all over the place.
[06:45] <PrinceKhaled> hello everyone, i am new to ubuntu and i need someone to help me configure my graphic driver
[06:45] <BlackWeb> dunmanifestin one sec I'll search
[06:45] <rww> ohzie: I'm using a HD3450. Works fine for me.
[06:45] <ohzie> But I'd like to not shell out the extra money for a laptop with an nvidia card unless I have to
[06:45] <ohzie> rww: Oh? No weird driver issues?
[06:45] <PrinceKhaled> Please i need this help
[06:46] <BlackWeb> Princekhaled what graphics card
[06:46] <PrinceKhaled> ATI
[06:46] <rww> ohzie: nope. Had no issues with xserver-xorg-video-radeon (the free software driver). fglrx (the non-free one) is a pain in the backside, though.
[06:46] <dunmanifestin> 	thanks alot blackweb.. I know the shortcuts lickalott they dont work
[06:47] <PrinceKhaled> built in
[06:47] <ohzie> rww: Ahhh
[06:47] <PrinceKhaled> lap top: Toshiba satellite A505-s6005
[06:47] <BlackWeb> Princekhaled, run lspci | grep VGA in terminal and paste results
[06:48] <PrinceKhaled> 00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation Core Processor Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 02)
[06:48] <leaveboy> BlackWeb: 3q
[06:49] <PrinceKhaled> Black web?
[06:49] <PrinceKhaled> still there?
[06:49] <BlackWeb> dunmanifestin, still searching for a driver for you, With ubuntu then the default is fglrx
[06:50] <BlackWeb> princekhaled, ya you using ubuntu 10.10 also
[06:50] <PrinceKhaled> yes
[06:50] <dunmanifestin> apparently this xserver thing is meant to work but maybe theres some kind of conflict
[06:50] <mix22891> there is a C# programming program in linux?
[06:51] <linuxuz3r> yes
[06:51] <linuxuz3r> try mono
[06:51] <linuxuz3r> mix22891,
[06:51] <linuxuz3r> try mono
[06:52] <BlackWeb> the thing is with linux and new version of linux then when they come out with a new version then theres time that you sometimes have to wait for someone to make a driver for the updated version, or you can resort older version such as 10.04 but still searching
[06:52] <mix22891> yes?
[06:52] <mix22891> ok
[06:52] <mix22891> thanks
[06:53] <mix22891> MonoDevlop?

[06:53] <linuxuz3r> yes
[06:53] <BlackWeb> dunmanifestin go here http://support.amd.com/us/gpudownload/linux/Legacy/Pages/radeon_linux.aspx?type=2.4.1&product=2.4.1.3.12&lang=English
[06:53] <mix22891> ok thanks
[06:54] <BlackWeb> dunmanifestin download that driver through ati and install it and see if that fixes your graphics
[06:54] <juk> BlackWeb: what drivers are you talking about?

[07:08] <ruan> Akshay: are any of the updates shown related to graphics?
[07:09] <Akshay> ruan:Do I simply run the bash file from the archive.
[07:09] <ruan> Akshay: yes
[07:09] <win189> Can some one inform me as to what i need to do to make windows see my ubuntu samba
[07:10] <ruan> !samba
[07:10] <win189> i did what it says but windows wont see it
[07:11] <ruan> does ubuntu see windows?
[07:11] <dr_Willis> win189 You can try just right clicking on a folder, and select share, you have tried that?
[07:11] <win189> um if it was that easy i would have
[07:11] <Akshay> ruan:done!
[07:11] <bvierra|l> hey all, long time linux user... first time kubuntu user... first of all, can I ask questions about kubuntu in here?
[07:11] <dr_Willis> win189 it is that easy for my lan normally.
[07:11] <rww> bvierra|l: here or #kubuntu
[07:11] <dr_Willis> sometimes the right click share thing. does not install the samba servifes properl;y however.
[07:11] <bvierra|l> ahh ok cool thanks :) dont really have any questions yet, just figure that I will
[07:11] <Akshay> What next??
[07:12] <ruan> Akshay: if you can't change to the resolution yet, reboot
[07:12] <visual1ce> killall gnome-panel works perfectly
[07:12] <ruan> Akshay: if installation was successful
[07:12] <dr_Willis> win189 you coud edit /etc/samba/smb.conf and be sure the workgroups are correct also.  and try manualy entering the share paths.  \\serverip.number\sharename
[07:12] <Akshay> ok, be right back sfter reboot.
[07:12] <Akshay> *after
[07:13] <win189> ok if i muked up the install
[07:13] <win189> can i just uninstall and reinstall
[07:13] <win189> will it clear all the settings
[07:14] <ruan> win189: i think it might keep settings. i remember seeing folders of things i uninstalled
[07:14] <dr_Willis> win189 depends on what you mesed up.  what have you done  so far?  things are almost alwyas fixable...
[07:14] <dr_Willis> when in doubt backup system configs you are editing.
[07:14] <ruan> ^^
[07:15] <Akshay> ruan: No change, still can't find 1152x864
[07:15] <ruan> odd.
[07:16] <win189> i think i messed up the config
[07:16] <ruan> well the drivers were released in 2004
[07:16] <dr_Willis> win189 what did you change in the config exactly?  I nomrally only need to edit a few lines if the smb.conf file.
[07:16] <Akshay> Yes, this is a very old machine.
[07:17] <dr_Willis> !find smb.conf
[07:17] <ruan> Akshay: 82845G right?
[07:17] <dr_Willis> Hmm. all those packages must have example smb.conf files.
[07:17] <Akshay> No, 82865G
[07:18] <ruan> oh ok
[07:18] <jiltdil>  i have two guest os soto acess one from other i activate bridge mode under network option in virtual box but now when i want to acess my host os it is not acessing through guest whhile when th evirtual box setting is in nat mode the  host is acessed.at this point m able to acess my guest os also through host but vice versa not possible.why ?
[07:19] <ruan> Akshay: i googled and found http://absolutebeginner.wordpress.com/2006/07/26/installing-intel-815852855-graphics-controller-drivers-on-ubuntu-debian/
[07:19] <rohitvvv> I downloaded ubuntu 10.04 and burned it to pendrive using unetbootin. When I boot the system with pendrive as first boot it does not boot? any clue?
[07:20] <win189> rohitvvv
[07:20] <dr_Willis> rohitvv what does it do ecacxtly? theres tools other then unetbootin. the pendrivelinux web site has other tools.
[07:20] <win189> rohitvvv it some times dosent work the first time
[07:20] <dr_Willis> You could evne set up grub2 to boot iso files.
[07:20] <ruan> Akshay: sudo apt-get install alien
[07:20] <sensini> #cdkey
[07:21] <sensini> #cdkey
[07:21] <Akshay> ruan:I guess, I tried out this.Trying again now.
[07:21] <sensini> #cdkey_office_2010
[07:21] <jmwpc> I'm stuck on a bash scripting problem. If I want to get the path portion of a file name into a variable (i.e. /home/myuser/music/somesong.mp3), how to do I get just the path?
[07:21] <bazhang> sensini, not here
[07:21] <win189> rohitvvv make shour to use ur f12 key to make it boot off of ur usb but if it dosent boot it could be a curuped download i sudjest the torrrent download and the tool listed on the site
[07:22] <ruan> sensini: who needs office 2010 when you have openoffice?
[07:22] <dr_Willis> jmwpc i recall there nbeing some commands in bash that do that.. the advanced bash scripting guide may give examples. Ive no tdone that task in ages.
[07:22] <dr_Willis> jmwpc i think one was called 'base'  or similer.
[07:22] <ruan> jmwpc: first read the docs, then go to #bash if you still have a problem
[07:23] <jmwpc> dr_Willis: I'll check that out... thanks
[07:23] <sensini> need office_2010_key, willing to do paypal transfer
[07:23] <llutz_> jmwpc: "dirname file"
[07:23] <Akshay> ruan:getting some error while downloading.
[07:23] <bazhang> sensini, not here stop asking
[07:23] <ruan> Akshay: what is the erro

[07:24] <ruan> Akshay: the mirror could possibly be offline
[07:24] <rww> win189: be nice, please.
[07:24] <Akshay> Is it due Indian Server..
[07:24] <sensini> i run linux, sister needs one
[07:24] <rww> sensini: freenode is not a filesharing network, and piracy is off-topic here.
[07:24] <ruan> Akshay: system > administration > software sources, switch mirror
[07:24] <Akshay> ruan:any other way to install package??
[07:24]  * win189 meeps ok RWW i wont chew peoples head off thats trying to get windblows crap
[07:25] <ruan> sensini: there's openoffice for windows too
[07:25] <sensini> got it
[07:25] <win189> (hates the fact he needs to rely on windblows cause he was to cheap to get ps3)
[07:25] <sensini> cool thanks
[07:25] <Akshay> Do I change the download from Option.
[07:26] <rohitvvv> I went for an option to install ubuntu inside windows using wubi. After a few minutes it starts downloading the iso from the internet. I already have the iso downloaded.?
[07:26] <ruan> Akshay: Download from: (change server)
[07:27] <dr_Willis> rowitvv you really sure you want to be using wubi? Most people hate it.  I think you need the iso in th eproper location. and it will see it.,
[07:27] <dr_Willis> oops that was for askhakshay i think,,...
[07:27] <rohitvvv> I extracted the contents of the iso using winrar
[07:27] <rohitvvv> and then I had wubi inside it.
[07:27] <ruan> dr_Willis: it wasn't, lol
[07:28] <Akshay> raun:E: Couldn't find package alien
[07:28] <win189> sorry all i ben haveing a short temper all day
[07:28] <ruan> Akshay: did you run sudo apt-get update?
[07:28] <rww> !alien
[07:28] <dr_Willis> im on my android - by the timne i answer.. the question has scrolled off the top of the screen
[07:29] <Akshay> no.
[07:29] <ruan> hmm..
[07:29] <win189> rww is there a general chat can
[07:30] <win189> that ubuntu admin has setup
 Thanks for the hint. It worked. wubi has to be in the directory where iso resides. It works :)
[07:30] <ruan> Akshay: ok, install 915resolution instead
[07:30] <dr_Willis> i relly hate wubi...
[07:30] <rww> win189: #ubuntu-offtopic (and read the /topic when you go there)
[07:30] <Akshay> how??
 why so?
[07:30] <win189> k rww ty
[07:31] <dr_Willis> to many issues rohitvv. You may learn to hate it also.
[07:31] <dr_Willis> I would rather run in virtualbox then use wubi
[07:31] <rww> this ^
 But virtual box would run much slower
[07:32] <dr_Willis> but its more relieable...
[07:32] <Stryker> why don't u use grub?
[07:32] <juk> wubi helps spreading the word anyway...
[07:32] <dr_Willis> ive seen way way way to many 'wubi broke on me' questions in here
 I have a windows 7 installation. Need to get ubuntu installed. Wubi seemed to be a easier option.
[07:33] <dr_Willis> virtualbos is the easiest option.. :)
[07:33] <ohzie> I don't even know what wubi is. :3
[07:33] <ohzie> !wubi
[07:33] <ohzie> Oh dear lord no.jpg
[07:33] <ruan> lol
[07:33] <dr_Willis> for some machines. i run ubuntu from a flash drive these days..
[07:33] <geoffmcc> rohitvvv: dual booting win7 and ubuntu is a breeze
[07:34] <Akshay> ruan:can't find it in Synaptic Package Manager
[07:34] <Stryker> why not just partition, and use grub?
[07:34] <dr_Willis> I advise using caution and paranoia backups. when using wubi.
[07:34] <dr_Willis> I have seen windows 7 installs that use 4 primary partitions.. that can make installing ubuntu normally a big hassle.
[07:35] <ruan> 4 partitions?
[07:35] <Potato> At last i got my alpine working for me. Whatever be the case somebody should have responded whether you knew or not.
[07:35] <dr_Willis> Yes - i have seen win7 Installs using 4 Primary partitions.
[07:35] <geoffmcc> dr_Willis: good point
[07:35] <Potato> Anyways thank you guys!
[07:35] <Stryker> so rohitvvv has the primaries taken up? arent logical partitions compatible with linux unlike unix
 yes they are taken up
 I have ubuntu installed now using wubi in one of the logical partitions.
[07:36] <Akshay> ruan:Pls help me out.
[07:36] <ruan> Akshay: im confused as well :/
[07:36] <Stryker> i think it would be possible to create a logical partition and boot it with grub
[07:37] <lighta> it is Stryker
[07:37] <Stryker> !logical partition
[07:37] <Stryker> !logicalpartition
[07:37] <Stryker> i tried
 yes
[07:37] <lighta> wante to create some using windows or ubuntu ?
[07:37] <dr_Willis> Hmm.. wubi installs to a file. no tits own partition
[07:37] <lighta> !gparted
[07:37] <Akshay> ruan:looking at this guide
[07:37] <Akshay> http://goo.gl/PiyX
[07:38] <ruan> yeh wubi installs to a .disk file
[07:38] <Stryker> many logical partitions can be made, unlike primaries
[07:38] <rohitvvv> Okay guys thanks for the help will get back in touch from ubuntu. May be installing grub from ubuntu would be easy.
[07:38] <rohitvvv> Thanks
[07:39] <lighta> using it at application isn't the same as "real"
[07:39] <Stryker> rohitvvv,
[07:39] <Stryker> wait
 Yes
[07:39] <Stryker> i don't think u wanna use grub for a wubi install
[07:39] <Stryker> rohitvvv, that wouldn't make sense
[07:39] <dr_Willis> wubi does use grub. windpows chainloads it i think.
[07:39] <dr_Willis> from what little ive used wubi.. :)
 Okay.
[07:40] <ruan> i tried a wubi install but it didnt boot, so i made a livecd
[07:40] <Stryker> rohitvvv, it is bulky, and hard to undo if you don't have a fresh install of real ubuntu
 The issue is making a bootable pendrive has being a problem. It does not boot. Hence I went in for wubi.
[07:41] <Stryker> have u tried using unetbootin?
 I would love to go for a real ubuntu install. But the pendrive won't boot for reasons.  Yes I have tried unetbootin
[07:41] <Stryker> try an ubuntu server install
 It drops at some prompt and says the kernel is missing
[07:41] <iceroot> rohitvvv: some pendrives cant boot because of the logic how the data is randomly written to the pendrive, so the bootsector is moved on some sticks
[07:42] <dr_Willis> theres OTHER installer apps then Unetbootin..
 any work around
[07:42] <dr_Willis> pendrivelinux has info on proberly 5+ others
[07:42] <iceroot> rohitvvv: hm your issue is not because of the random write
[07:42] <Stryker> what do you even mean iceroot ?
 shall I download one app like unetbootin from pendrivelinux
[07:43] <iceroot> Stryker: pendrives are writting data randomly so you dont write the data alaways at the same place, bad pendrives are also writing the boot-sector randomly at some place on the stick
[07:43] <Stryker> i have myself made a previously uninstallible flavour work on a pendrive
[07:43] <dr_Willis> download and try them er.r.. ALL.. :) its not like they cost $$$
[07:43] <Akshay> ruan:Did you find any solution
[07:43] <iceroot> Stryker: its not often but some pendrives around there are not bootable
[07:43] <dr_Willis> You can always try making your own grub2 booting iso file pendrive
[07:44] <Stryker> iceroot, that is a filesystem, and program error
 Sure I will try one. Fingers crossed.
[07:44] <dr_Willis> ive had old pendrives now work wiht some old machines..
[07:44] <dr_Willis> not much issues with new ones.
[07:45] <Stryker> that is a point, but grub2 can boot from pendrive like dr_Willis said
[07:45] <Stryker> lol
[07:45] <ruan> Akshay: not yet
[07:46] <dr_Willis> you could even boot a cd, and do a normal install to a pendrive.
[07:46] <Akshay> :{
[07:46] <Stryker> you could boot an iso with virtualbox, and install the system onto the pendrive
 That's really a long cut.
[07:47] <Stryker> what does that mean?
[07:47] <dr_Willis> ive done that befor. :)
[07:47] <Stryker> that is not a part of my slang
[07:47] <dr_Willis> vbox -> pendrive. is nifty trick
[07:47] <Stryker> i agree
 Any tutorial ?
[07:47] <W43372> I just installed 10.10 a couple of hours ago and my clock is all kinds of messed up. Screenshot: http://img851.imageshack.us/i/whatthefuckisthisshit.png/
[07:48] <Stryker> rohitvvv, i am sure there is
[07:48] <dr_Willis> pemdrive web site has severla installers thqat work well.
[07:48] <Stryker> rohitvvv, i could help u with teamviewer
[07:48] <Stryker> pendrivelinux sucks
[07:49] <dr_Willis> ive had no issues with the pendrivelinux web site tools
 plz let me know ... teamviewer
[07:50] <W43372> i can has halp plz?
[07:50] <Stryker> ?
[07:50] <dr_Willis> not eveyr one has a web browser to check every site/image.. sumarize the issue.
[07:50] <gump> Hello,I come from a university of China. When I use the line of our school to connect irc servers,it always failed, I don't know why.
[07:50] <Stryker> teamviewer, rohitvvv is an app so i can remotely help u on ur pc
 I need to download it then
[07:51] <Stryker> rohitvvv, i would be happy to help
 Nice of you. but it would nice if you let me know about a tutorial for vbox-> pendrive
I could try
[07:52] <W43372> dr_Willis: I just installed, hwclock had the correct time but it's timezone is HAST. I don't live in hawaii. The clock on the panel is wrong, but when I click on it and check my location it has the correct city and the correct time, but the panel is still wrong.
[07:52] <dr_Willis> i doubt if there is a specific tutorial for vbox->pendrvive., Get vbox seeing the flash drives. and  set it up
[07:53] <Stryker> i used to use vmware
[07:53] <rohitvvv>  <dr_Willis> Okay I would try getting vbox to boot the iso first
[07:53] <Stryker> i am not too great at vbox
[07:53] <dr_Willis> w43372 - it could be a 'clock set to UST/GMT  vs Localtime type issue.'
[07:53] <ruan> vmware is able to share files with drag n drop.. does vbox also support that?
[07:53] <W43372> dr_Willis: how do fix?
[07:53] <lifestream> Hi, I need a simple search and replace tool (NOT a text editor). I can't use sed/awk. I tried SearchMonkey and Regexxer but I can't understand them
[07:53] <dr_Willis> ruan wiuth the guest addations - i think so
[07:54] <iceroot> lifestream: why you cant use sed?
[07:54] <dr_Willis> w43372 check what your hw clock is set to in bios
[07:54] <lifestream> iceroot:  I have tried to learn since atleast 2-3 years ago, but I can't manage to learn it
[07:54] <iceroot> lifestream: you dont know how to use it or other reasons?
[07:54] <Stryker> my bios is set to GMT and in linux is PST
[07:55] <iceroot> lifestream: hm, sed 's/foo/bar/' -i filename   will replace foo with bar
[07:55] <iceroot> lifestream: what else do you need?
[07:55] <lifestream> iceroot: I need it to scan my whole home folder for only plain-text files
[07:56] <tohuw> Where does bind9 log why it failed to start?
[07:56] <iceroot> lifestream: so you want to replace in every textfile a string and only in textfiles?
[07:56] <iceroot> tohuw: /var/log/daemon.log
[07:57] <tohuw> oh, since it's a daemon and all... thanks iceroot -.-
[07:57] <lifestream> iceroot: yes iceroot, I found a script on the web to replace, but it scanned through lots of movies and a 20gb music collection  T_T  Also, I needed to change this string: /home/eris/ to /home/wish  and instead, I got /home/eris//   <- double slash
[07:57] <lifestream> So now none of my configs work because they point to /home/eris//    :P
[07:59] <Blue1> hail eris!  all hail discordia.
[07:59] <Blue1> no wait wrong channel
[07:59] <ruan> lol
[07:59] <mehdi> im haveing bluetooth problem
[08:00] <mehdi> i can recive nor send files
[08:00] <Nrik> I can`t boot into X11 - black screen
[08:00] <W43372> dr_Willis: the bios hw was wrong, I fixed it but my problem is still the same
[08:00] <mehdi> it gives error : make sure u installed the personal file sharing
[08:00] <iceroot> lifestream: sed 's/eris\/\//eris\//' should do the job
[08:01] <W43372> dr_Willis sudo hwclock -r is still accurate but in HAST timezone, panel is wrong, but locations still has correct city and time
[08:01] <iceroot> lifestream: to correct eris// to eris/
[08:01] <dr_Willis> w43722  try setting the clock to set its dat automatically now. it may correct oitself
[08:01] <dr_Willis> or try chaning timezones toi some other zone. then back.
[08:02] <dr_Willis> the gnome clock also may NOT set its self right untill you log out.. its been a bit brain dead in the past i recall.
[08:02] <andruHA1123> wow! whoever recommended me lubuntu was awesome! its really nice and very functional!
[08:02] <Stryker> W43372, try using the time and date settings under system>administration instead of the panel settings
[08:02] <Akshay> ruan:Are you still looking into my problem.
[08:03] <ruan> Akshay: i'll google further
[08:03] <Akshay> thanks mate :)

[08:17] <W43372> The SD slot doesn't work on my new netbook; any idea on how to fix it?
[08:17] <loi> what is it
[08:17] <nigg3r> Nick newnick is already in use
[08:17] <ruan> lol...
[08:17] <kothaguy_ubuntu> W43372, : i am able to record voice with audacity with distrubance,but y not i am able to record in sound recorder,and i am also unable to record my voice in skpe
[08:17] <rajvi> check if it installed or not
[08:18] <kothaguy_ubuntu> W43372, :My SD card slot also doesnt work,myne is acer aspire 532h netbook,what abt u?
[08:18] <W43372> kothaguy_ubuntu: I honestly have no clue, man. You asked how to do audacity, I know audacity. is the mic external?
[08:18] <loi> anybody how to install CJK?
[08:18] <W43372> kothaguy_ubuntu acer aspire d225
[08:19] <dr_Willis> some netbooks requier specific kernel  codes at bot time for them to work . even then they may not work totally how you want
[08:19] <Cale> Why does my updater perpetually want to remove the nvidia-current package?
[08:19] <kothaguy_ubuntu> W43372, :do u have two slots or only one
[08:19] <Cale> Should I let it do that and then reinstall nvidia-current after?
[08:19] <W43372> kothaguy_ubuntu: I just have the one on the right side of the computer
[08:19] <dr_Willis> !info nvidia-current
[08:19] <ruan> Cale: maybe it's installing a different driver.
[08:20] <loi> what are you talking about?
[08:20] <loi> hoho
[08:20] <Cale> I think nvidia-current is holding back a bunch of xserver-xorg-* packages
[08:20] <dr_Willis> i was thinking that pointed to a differnet  version depneding on the system.. but ive never had the system want to remove it
[08:20] <arlander> anyone: why do I have clock-app command, when I run lsof, I don't want any open ports, why is clock-app trying to connect to some IP on port 80 ?
[08:20] <kothaguy_ubuntu> W43372, :untill the stable release of natty,we cant do anything,sd card reader is going to work in natty,i already filed the bug
[08:20] <W43372> the SD slot is the only thing on this new machine that doesn't work OOTB
[08:20] <Cale> Maybe I can tell it that I don't want those packages.
[08:20] <ruan> arlander: looks like time synchronisation
[08:20] <rajvi> nvidia collliding with usb slots !!
[08:20] <dr_Willis> arlander - the gnome clock has a weather feature.. it connecting to a port is not really a security issue..
[08:21] <ruan> or weather.
[08:21] <arlander> ruan: Time Synchronization is TURNED OFF, I have set it to MANUAL
[08:21] <W43372> :(
[08:21] <W43372> so there's nothing I can do to get this card reader working until then?
[08:21] <arlander> dr_Willis: I turned the weather thing off, still its communicating to some port 80
[08:21] <kothaguy_ubuntu> guys,any one can help me,i can record my voice with audacity,but not with sound recorder,unable to use skype,unable to record video in cheese booth webcam also,help please
[08:22] <t{^c_^}z> sup. I'm a face.

[08:22] <FloodBot3> loi: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
[08:22] <rww> !ot | loi
[08:23] <newnickk> kothaguy_ubuntu: go to System Preferences and open Multimedia System Selector
[08:23] <llutz_> arlander: use tcpdump/wireshark to find out _what_ the clock really does
[08:23] <newnickk> if you have it
[08:23] <Cale> Oh, one of the packages being kept back is xserver-xorg itself
[08:23] <Cale> huh
[08:24] <kothaguy_ubuntu> newnickk, : There is no multimedia system selector in my preferences
[08:24] <Cale> Probably nvidia-current demands a particular version of xorg...
[08:24] <milamber> does anyone know how to turn off dh_auto_test in debuilder?
[08:26] <kothaguy_ubuntu> there is pulse audio preferences,sound, in sound pulse audio volume control,gnome alsa miser,alsamixeer gui only
[08:26] <W43372> so there's nothing I can do to get this card reader working until then?
[08:26] <kothaguy_ubuntu> W43372, :yes,
[08:27] <newnickk> kothaguy_ubuntu: right click in menu
[08:27] <newnickk> kothaguy_ubuntu: then edit menu go to system preferences and enable the shortcut
[08:28] <kothaguy_ubuntu> Newnickk: yes i got multimedia system selector
[08:28] <newnickk> kothaguy_ubuntu: open it
[08:28] <newnickk> kothaguy_ubuntu: then check default input and try the one ALSA
[08:28] <kothaguy_ubuntu> opened
[08:28] <newnickk> and check device too
[08:28] <newnickk> play with those options

[08:38] <llutz_> ceo: thats why you have to remaster it
[08:38] <ohzie> ceo: This is probably not the best place to get a lot of help for something like that. I suggest that for advanced things like that, you check out http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/ to learn a lot about linux in general, and then come back and try again.
[08:39] <ceo> how about my applicaton
[08:39] <dr_Willis> Yet another pontless remaster of Uubntu :) - there was some web site (recontrouctor.org ?) that helped you do that. but its not free any more.
[08:39] <ceo> are that can include to
[08:39] <ohzie> ceo: It's important to learn a lot of the meat before you start sucking the bones, as they say?

[08:40] <ceo> nooooooooooo
[08:41] <dr_Willis> launchers can have url's i recall
[08:41] <doma> yes, don't work
[08:41] <ohzie> ceo: If you're doing something as intensive as remastering a livecd, you really need to read the documentation. =( We can point you in the right direction, but we can't do it for you.
[08:41] <doma> from chromium, maybe from firefox work?
[08:42] <dr_Willis> ive got links to web sites on myh dsktop at home i revcall.. wasent to hard to make  them.  You could always make a launcher that runs 'firefox http://facebook.com'
[08:42] <doma> i'll try that

[08:45] <ohzie> Oh wow how did I miss that
[08:46] <ohzie> dr_Willis: ty
[08:46] <dr_Willis> Lubuntu is a work in progress.. iuts basuically Openbox+pcmanfm and a few exta tools
[08:46] <llutz_> ohzie: nothing to worry about
[08:46] <ohzie> dr_Willis: Not on your phone anymore? :)
[08:46] <dr_Willis> lubuntu works decently well. but compared to gnome  - it is lacking  some features.
[08:46] <newnickk> kothaguy_ubuntu: you didnt solve it?
[08:46] <dr_Willis> on my phone now. :)
[08:46] <ohzie> dr_Willis: I remember when XFCE was very lightweight but with about the functionality of gnome.
[08:46] <ohzie> Then they started bloating it.
[08:46] <ohzie> Now it's amazing
[08:46] <ohzie> but not exactly lightweight
[08:46] <Nrik> Please, help: can`t start gdm after reboot
[08:46] <dr_Willis> Nick completion is not working right. the tab key dont do it.. i hav to hits the phones search button...
[08:46] <kothaguy_ubuntu> newnickk, :No yar,skype is unable to record my voice,but i can hear the skype test call voice, :-(
[08:47] <newnickk> kothaguy_ubuntu: if the mic works in audacity it works in all other programs too
[08:47] <newnickk> kothaguy_ubuntu: if just a configuration that is not right
[08:47] <dr_Willis> Roll your own desktio. :) pick a wm.  pick a fm... there ya go.
[08:47] <newnickk> *it is*
[08:47] <kothaguy_ubuntu> In audacity,it is able to record voice,with disturbance,but in skye,unable to do that
[08:47] <ohzie> dr_Willis: I used to use gnome+xfwm4+konqueror for evrything.
[08:48] <ohzie> that was me until 9.04
[08:48] <dr_Willis> Ive been exploring JoliOS this week. :)  shame on me.  Waiting to get the guts to try 11.04 soon
[08:48] <kothaguy_ubuntu> Even in cheese booth webcam,i cant record videos,What the hell happening to my netbook,
[08:49] <Cale> I remember there was a nice one-line command that one could run to tag the version of a package that one was recompiling from source so that apt wouldn't try to reinstall the distribution's version over and over. What was that?
[08:49] <newnickk> kothaguy_ubuntu: check skype preferences! you are doing it wrong
[08:49] <dr_Willis> !pin
[08:49] <Cale> I mean, when building the package in the first place
[08:49] <Cale> I don't want my package's version number to be the same as the one in the repository
[08:50] <kothaguy_ubuntu> newnickk, in skype,i checked the sound option,there also it is not able to record voice,but video is there
[08:50] <Cale> (I want to add a tag to the end of it)

[08:53] <KimK> Is it possible to send an update request to the Canonical maintainer for libncurses5 and related? I'm trying to install BRL-CAD from their .deb into 10.04, but gDebi wants libncurses5 of at least 2010xxxx, and 10.04 only has 2009xxxx. Can libncurses5 be updated in the repos?
[08:53] <bullgard> Nrik: What do you abtain after 'sudo service gdm restart'?
[08:54] <bullgard> s/abtain/obtain/
[08:54] <bullgard> KimK: You can do it via Launchpad.
[08:55] <KimK> bullgard: I've never done that, is there a FAQ?
[08:55] <bullgard> KimK: What do you mean by "there"?
[08:55] <KimK> bullgard: Oh, you mean send the request?
[08:55] <bullgard> KimK: Yes.
[08:56] <KimK> OK, I'll take a look. Thanks.

[09:00] <bazhang> Piggie, no
[09:00] <newnickk> no
[09:00] <bullgard> Piggie: No.
[09:00] <newnickk> they wont
[09:00] <Piggie> why not?
[09:00] <newnickk> because gnome is for noobs
[09:00] <bazhang> Piggie, try #ubuntu-offtopic

[09:01] <Piggie> isnt Gnome obsolete now and getting replaced by Unity
[09:01] <W43372> Anybody still here from when I was on earlier talking about my problem with the card reader?
[09:01] <Piggie> in Ubuntu
[09:01] <Piggie> ?
[09:01] <bazhang> Piggie, lets take chit chat to #ubuntu-offtopic please
[09:01] <Piggie> I’m on topic
[09:02] <bullgard> Piggie: <bazhang> advised you to discuss that in #ubuntu-offtopic.
[09:02] <Piggie> I’m asking if unity is replacing Gnome so that gnome can be dropped completely
[09:02] <newnickk> Piggie: stop being a big
[09:02] <bazhang> Piggie, no
[09:02] <arturs> hello..
[09:02] <arturs> anyone?
[09:03] <jiltdil> i use this sudo /etc/init.d/ssh stop to stop its writting stopping but when i checks sudo /etc/init.d/ssh status it shows it still running  any idea?
[09:03] <Piggie> OK, but Gnome wont ship by default, right?>
[09:03] <Piggie> just an optional thing...
[09:03] <W43372> Ok, anyway; since I logged off I found this thread about the card reader problem in ubuntu: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1506925

[09:03] <W43372> I haven't tried the solution yet because I'm about to go to bed, but I hope it helps
[09:03] <Tm_T> Piggie: GNOME will be the default, Unity is just a layer on top of it
[09:04] <arlander> llutz_: but it's weird because I have stopped the weather update option
[09:04] <W43372> Thanks for all the help today guys. I'm off to bed.

[09:04] <zebulon> hi! I have a pb with my new fresh 10.10: there is no more opt.h in the lbavutil-dev package !? I can't compile a friend's prg without it (he run debian 6)

[09:06] <arturs> xUbuntu 10.10: after rebooting, X11 cannot open DISPLAY. Just showing black screen (Alt+F1-6 do not work, untill I restart and pressing F2 while booting)
[09:06] <llutz_> arlander: check settings twice. if its really deactivated, file a bug report
[09:06] <Piggie> I’m a bit confused. You want me to discuss ubuntu on #ubuntu-offtopic?
[09:06] <Tm_T> Piggie: yes, this discussion is not related to ubuntu support in released versions
[09:07] <bullgard> arturs: What does /var/log/Xorg.0.log say?
[09:09] <arlander> llutz_: thanks, at least wireshark helped me understand whts happening, might restart pc and check if communication still exists, might submit as bug when I am sure everythings good wrt disabling services
[09:10] <arlander> llutz_: na no bug, I strted the service and shut again, now its gone, seems like it takes some time, thanks a ton for helping out
[09:10] <arturs> bullgard: ...log | grep '(EE)': Failed to submit batch buffer, expect rendering corruption or even frozen display..
[09:11] <doma> I think i'll give up. There is no way to put shortcut to facebook on desktop in Lubuntu.
[09:11] <arturs> bullgard: ...bad file descriptor
[09:11] <arturs> bullgard:  What is that mean?
[09:11] <Cale> Ah, I found the tool I was looking for before, it's  dch -v <version>
[09:11] <ruan> is it possible to install ubuntu on a smartphone?
[09:12] <bullgard> arturs: So you will probably find more fundamental error messages in /var/log/dmesg.0. Analyze them first.
[09:12] <Cale> I can never remember that one when I need it :P
[09:13] <Cale> ruan: I would be very surprised if it is. Ubuntu is geared quite heavily to desktop environments. It's possible to run Linux on some smartphones...
[09:13] <bullgard> ruan: It is possible to install it on some advanced Nokia smart phones.
[09:15] <jiltdil> how to stop sshd?
[09:15] <llutz_> jiltdil: sudo service ssh stop
[09:15] <iceroot> ruan: normally you dont want ubuntu or other distris on a smartphone, its not made for them (controls, resolution and so on) you want android on a smartphone
[09:15] <jiltdil> llutz_:thanx
[09:16] <Cale> I would think it would need to be a pretty heavily modified Ubuntu set-up. The default configuration would be pretty inappropriate I'd think.
[09:16] <iceroot> jiltdil: sudo /etc/init.d/ssh stop
[09:16] <jiltdil> iceroot:that not works
[09:16] <iceroot> jiltdil: then maybe sshd
[09:16] <jiltdil> iceroot: no there is no sshd command in that
[09:17] <jiltdil> iceroot: service ssh stop works
[09:17] <Cale> Did llutz's command work?
[09:17] <Cale> okay
[09:17] <Cale> Weird
[09:17] <iceroot> jiltdil: sudo /etc/init.d/ssh stop is working fine here (ubuntu 10.10)
[09:17] <Cale> Since I thought the service command was just a shortcut to running the things in /etc/init.d
[09:17] <Cale> maybe it isn't
[09:17] <sneha> .com
[09:17] <Cale> yeah, it works for me too
[09:18] <iceroot> Cale: no, service is for upstart init.d is for the old init-script-method

[09:18] <BezNalogov> Hello
[09:18] <bullgard> In Ubuntu versions < 10.04 there was an entry  System > Administration > Services > (Services Settings) > Database server > 'mysql'. Where has it gone in Lucid and Maverick?
[09:18] <jiltdil> iceroot: but i tried it already it says that it is stopping but when again     i go to check status it says sudo /etc/init.d/ssh status it shows it is active
[09:18] <Cale> iceroot: Then the manpage for it should be updated, since it says "run a System V init script"
[09:18] <arturs> bullgard: I can`t find anything
[09:19] <iceroot> jiltdil: hm, you are right
[09:19] <jiltdil> iceroot: :)
[09:19] <llutz_> crappy mix of upstart/sysv-init
[09:19] <iceroot> jiltdil: maybe its time for me to change to this new service-thing
[09:20] <BezNalogov> I am having a problem with my ubuntu 10.10 machine. Yesterday I updated it, but it seems that something went wrong (allthough I didn't get any errors). The problem is that after the update the network card isn't working anymore. When I do a dmesg | grep eth I don't see anything appear, so it seems the card is unused. What can I do?
[09:20] <bullgard> arturs: So I think that your X server is not properly configured. But I do not know how to best correct that.
[09:20] <iceroot> BezNalogov: what have you update? from 10.04 - 10.10 or only security fixes?
[09:21] <arturs> bullgard: log/Xorg also say, that dir /share/fonts/X11/cyrillic does not exists
[09:21] <iceroot> BezNalogov: a kernel-update?
[09:21] <iceroot> BezNalogov: is "sudo ifconfig -a" showing eth0?
[09:22] <yinruzhi> quit
[09:22] <bullgard> arturs: This may be another error. You probably can fix that by installing a cyrillic font. (But I think that this is secondary in importance to the first rported error message.)
[09:22] <BezNalogov> I did the normal security updates, the kernel was upgraded to 2.6.35-27-generic, but also with the old kernel the network card doesn't work
[09:22] <bullgard> s/rported/reported/
[09:23] <BezNalogov> with sudo ifconfig -a the card doesn't show up either
[09:24] <iceroot> BezNalogov: so the card never worked with 10.10?
[09:24] <arturs> bullgard: by the way, how can I install cyrillic fonts?
[09:24] <BezNalogov> Yes it did
[09:24] <BezNalogov> I use 10.10 for a while already
[09:24] <BezNalogov> Just after running the update-manager yesterday it stopped working
[09:24] <jiltdil> llutz_:  redhat uses   service sshd stop  and ubuntu  service ssh stop quite same :) thanx
[09:24] <llutz_> jiltdil: debian too
[09:24] <llutz_> (ssh)
[09:25] <iceroot> llutz_: debian is on upstart? (squeeze)
[09:25] <llutz_> iceroot: naaaa never  (hopefully)
[09:25] <iceroot> llutz_: good. strange new things...
[09:25] <llutz_> iceroot: but "service command works fine with squeeze
[09:25] <bullgard> arturs: '~$ sudo apt-get install xfonts-cyrillic'. Or use Synaptic.
[09:25] <iceroot> llutz_: but its calling the old init-scripts
[09:26] <jiltdil> llutz_:yes but backtrack like debian os provides it automatically in option  :)
[09:26] <BezNalogov> should I normally see a network card with lspci?
[09:26] <llutz_> iceroot: true, but make switching between systems easier
[09:26] <iceroot> llutz_: never touch a running system
[09:26] <llutz_> lets wait for systemd
[09:26] <iceroot> llutz_: pulseaudio, upstart, wayland....
[09:26] <arturs> bullgard: I can show You log files on web http://winlinmac.ath.cx/~arturs/errors/
[09:27] <llutz_> iceroot: upstart is crap, shouldn't be used in the wild (imho)
[09:27] <jau> Hello ubuntu friends. I have 3 virtual server. I'm located in Finland, i think the servers are located in Germany. recommendations to timezone settings? UTC, Europe/Berlin? what? now one has UTC, two others Europe/Berlin, and i'm confused ;)
[09:27] <bullgard> arturs: http://winlinmac.ath.cx/~arturs/errors/ gets me: "Not found".
[09:28] <iceroot> jau: what about using YOUR timezone
[09:28] <Tm_T> jau: whatever suits you best
[09:28] <Cale> The manpage for 'service' says that it runs sysv init scripts, but taking a look at the source for it in Ubuntu 10.10 reveals that before it does that, it also checks for upstart configurations.
[09:28] <silv3r_m00n> is there any docking application for ubuntu 9.10 , that can be installed from synaptic ?
[09:28] <Cale> (and uses those if available)
[09:28] <inad922> Hello
[09:28] <inad922> Is there anyone here who runs boxee on ubuntu and managed to make it work flawlessly?
[09:28] <iceroot> Cale: but the init-scripts dont check if upstart is used
[09:29] <Diverdude> I hve asked this question several times and nobody answers. It is very frustrating. suddenty my packet manager does not work any longer, it sends me this error message: An unresolvable problem occurred while initializing the package information.Please report this bug against the 'update-manager' package and include the following error message:'E:Dynamic MMap ran out of room. Please increase the size of APT::Cache-Limit. Current value: 2516
[09:29] <Diverdude> 5824. (man 5 apt.conf), E:Error occurred while processing less (NewFileVer1), E:Problem with MergeList /var/lib/dpkg/status, E:The package lists or status file could not be parsed or opened.'  How do i solve this?
[09:29] <iceroot> Cale: seen on sudo /etc/init.d/ssh stop
[09:29] <Cale> It looks in /etc/init/${SERVICE}.conf and if that exists it won't run the init script
[09:29] <arturs> bullgard: now its ready :)
[09:29] <iceroot> llutz_: luckily it takes years until debian is using new technologies :)
[09:29] <jau> iceroot: thinking of setting the /etc/timezone to something usable to me... the geolocation of the server confuses me, all servers have ntpdate in use, but i'm thinking of multiuser scenario, so any user could set their own
[09:29] <Cale> Or at least, it won't run it directly.
[09:30] <llutz_> iceroot: let's hope that toy story has enough characters left...
[09:30] <kuribas> Bash completion just stopped working after I installed some packages.
[09:30] <iceroot> llutz_: :)
[09:30] <Cale> It executes a command whose name is the same as the action (except in the case of force-reload, apparently), with the service's name and options passed as args.
[09:30] <jau> iceroot: so setting the server to UTC, and in my profile my own possible?
[09:30] <ruan> Diverdude: increase apt cache-limit? i dunno how though
[09:30] <Cale> So if you know that it's an upstart task apparently you could just use start ssh / stop ssh
[09:31] <ruan> !apt
[09:31] <iceroot> jau: if i am correct you can have user-specific timezones
[09:31] <kuribas> I hate when things that always worked suddenly break because of a change in the system.
[09:31] <Cale> But using the service command is more backwards compatible :)
[09:31] <bullgard> arturs: I fid the same error message "[   939.401] (EE) intel(0): Failed to submit batch buffer, expect rendering corruption or even a frozen display: Bad file descriptor.". You need to confgure your Intel graphics card properly.
[09:31] <Diverdude> ruan, yeah well i kinda figured that also
[09:31] <Diverdude> ruan, but i have no idea how
[09:31] <iceroot> Cale: depending what you are running
[09:31] <bullgard> +i
[09:32] <iceroot> Cale: normally i am on lenny, there i would use init.d  if i write tutorials or scripts i use init.d. bad if other distris are using service
[09:32] <Diverdude> ruan, its really quite bad disappointing that ubuntu has this kind of stupid issues
[09:32] <arturs> bullgard: I tried, but fail
[09:33] <bullgard> arturs: What did you try specifia
[09:33] <bullgard> arturs: What did you try specifically?
[09:33] <killadaninja> does anyone know where "run commands" cache is stored
[09:33] <arturs> bullgard: dpkg-reconfigure -a
[09:33] <killadaninja> not shell
[09:33] <ruan> Diverdude: maybe theres a config for apt somewhere
[09:34] <ruan> /etc/apt?
[09:34] <Diverdude> ruan, where?
[09:34] <arturs> bullgard: but did not change aything.. it just stops working
[09:34] <ruan> hmmm
[09:34] <bullgard> arturs: This is not enough. You will need to reconfigure your graphics system. Google for the precise error message and your computer type. I am sure other had the same problem before and a solution.
[09:35] <milamber> Diverdude: did you try sudo apt-get clean?
[09:35] <Diverdude> ruan, have /etc/apt/apt.conf.d but have many files there
[09:35] <BezNalogov> iceroot, any suggestions what I can do for the network card problem?
[09:35] <Diverdude> milamber, yeah i tried that....it did not do any difference
[09:35] <bullgard> arturs: You can add as a catchword your current Ubuntu distribution.
[09:36] <iceroot> BezNalogov: maybe have a look at dmesg
[09:36] <ruan> need to scout config for the line APT ::Cache-Limit
[09:36] <iceroot> BezNalogov: lspci is not showing the card?
[09:37] <BezNalogov> no lspci isn't showing it, dmesg doesn't show anything either
[09:38] <milamber> Diverdude: what version of ubuntu
[09:38] <milamber> ?
[09:38] <pika_> hello , somebody know the issue with the slow transfert with the USB ?
[09:38] <SoftarPaul> Hello! I've got problems with a command

If I ssh to the FQDN, I get ssh'd into the localhost of whatever machine I'm on! nslookup of the FQDN seems fine... ideas?

[09:44] <bullgard> arturs: Yes.
[09:44] <dagon666> do you guys know any console html2pdf tool available in the repositories ?
[09:45] <arturs> bullgard: but, while installing this package, I miss cyrillic caracters in console
[09:45] <mrcreativity> my touchpad stopped working...can anyone help me please?
[09:45] <mrcreativity> i installed the network indicator applet and now my mousepad isnt working

[09:47] <Tewo> Hello, is it possible to setup Ubuntu on a flash drive (or install lm_sensors or something like that) to monitor temps of a machine just after install ?
[09:47] <crlcan81> I've already asked the question, and not gotten an answer.
[09:47] <Tewo> As in , install of the machines parts
[09:48] <crlcan81> why I asked the experience question.
[09:48] <milamber> Diverdude: and then sudo apt-get update
[09:48] <crlcan81> I'm running Ubuntu 10.10 64bit and whenever I have one tab/window open with flash active and open another flash activity in firefox the first goes gray like when plugins are first loading. Using Adobe's flash plugin.
[09:48] <bullgard> Tewo: What are "temps"?
[09:48] <etfb> About the fglrx video driver (ATI/AMD proprietary) -- is the one in the Maverick repositories really the latest one?  Can I find a more recent one if I compile the source from somewhere?  One that can handle Flash without dying would be nice...
[09:48] <arturs> bullgard: Ok, all good now
[09:48] <Tewo> bullgard: "Temps of the machine"
[09:49] <Tewo> bullgard: "CPU temp, hard drive, etc"
[09:49] <bullgard> Tewo: Do you speak about "temperature"?
[09:49] <arturs> Yhooooo
[09:49] <arturs> :)
[09:49] <Tewo> bullgard: Yes I speak of "temperature" White man.. how how
[09:49]  * Tewo burps
[09:50] <arturs> bullgard: Thanks again.
[09:50] <crlcan81> I'm honestly already paranoid enough about this thing with the fans without knowing my exact cpu/hard drive/gpu temp
[09:50] <bullgard> arturs: You are welcome.
[09:51] <crlcan81> need to upgrade the case to one that supports anything larger then 80mm fans.
[09:51] <crlcan81> Not quite silent enough though she's pretty quiet already.
[09:51] <tohuw> So here's an odd problem: I'm trying to ssh into my local DNS server. If I ping it by FQDN (e.g. myserver.site), I get the correct IP address, and the ping times are fine, but there's a very long gap between pings. If I ssh to the FQDN, I get ssh'd into the localhost of whatever machine I'm on! nslookup of the FQDN seems fine... ideas?
[09:51] <San> ubuntu sucks!
[09:51] <San> i like backtrack
[09:51] <bullgard> Tewo: "is it possible to setup Ubuntu on a flash drive (or install lm_sensors or something like that) to monitor temps of a machine just after install ?" <-- Yes
[09:52] <Tewo> anyway yes.  "temperature" .  As in to figure out if the machien is running hot.
[09:52] <Tewo> bullgard: Just use the live CD and/or flash drive ?
[09:52] <milamber> Tewo: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=102636
[09:52] <Tewo> milamber: Does Ubuntu have something like Prime95 to stress the CPU ?
[09:53] <bullgard> Tewo: Either one is all right.
[09:53] <milamber> !info stress | Tewo
[09:53] <Tewo> bullgard: it seems after you install lm-senors it requires a reboot.  I guess that wouldn't be an option
[09:54] <Tewo> sensors
[09:54] <ruan> you could also write a bash script to stress the CPU, infinite loop echo
[09:55] <Tewo> ruan: I assume I could check it in BIOS to begin with first off anyway?
[09:55] <ruan> Tewo: yes you can check temperature of cpu in bios
[09:55] <bullgard> Tewo: If rebboting is not option for you you better have qualified that before.
[09:56] <bullgard> s/not/not an/
[09:56] <Tewo> bullgard: A live flash drive doesn't allow changes to the OS?
[09:56] <Tewo> bullgard: I guess?
[09:57] <Tewo> bullgard: such as installing and keeping a new package?
[09:57] <bullgard> Tewo: A live flash drive does allow to make changes in the OS.
[09:57] <Tewo> bullgard: where as the CD wouldn't?
[09:58] <bullgard> Tewo: I do not understand your question: "where as the CD wouldn't?"
[09:58] <Tewo> bullgard: So in general I could run Ubuntu , and keep it updated , off of a flash drive?
[09:58] <Tewo> bullgard: Doesn't allow changes such as updates, new packages, etc ?
[09:58] <bullgard> Tewo: Yes.
[09:59] <Tewo> bullgard: Yes to keeping it updated and running off of flash drive?
[09:59] <linux_> whois todd_
[09:59] <bullgard> Tewo: No.
[09:59] <Tewo> OK.
[10:00] <Tewo> bullgard: So I can only make the ISO in to a setup on the flash drive?
[10:01] <iceroot> Tewo: you can have a normal ubuntu-installation on a flashdrive like on a normal harddisk
[10:01] <bullgard> Tewo: Im you have a normal Ubuntu computer you can produce a modified flash drive which includes the additional packages which you want.
[10:01] <iceroot> !usb | Tewo
[10:01] <bullgard> s/IM/If/
[10:03] <hayz> how much storage does ubuntu 10.10 OS takes?
[10:03] <Diverdude> milamber, do i need to restart before it works?
[10:03] <Tewo> iceroot: I'm assuming it would over right the boot data on the main hard drive unlike the flash setup installer ?
[10:03] <bullgard> hayz: This depends yon your setup.
[10:03] <milamber> Diverdude: should just have to do sudo apt-get update
[10:03] <bullgard> s/yon/on/
[10:04] <Tewo> iceroot: or would it install Grub2 over windows' ?
[10:04] <Diverdude> milamber, brb
[10:08] <GOMI> am curious about one thing , my ubuntu crashed twice on both times i had a video player on pauze while i was doing something else
[10:08] <GOMI> is that a known problem ?
[10:08] <red2kic> GOMI: Check htop -- Look for something that cause high spikes in CPU or MEM.
[10:09] <Diverdude> milamber, its stilol not working :(
[10:09] <arand> hayz: 5GB absolute minimum, 10GB if you plan on getting a fair amount of applications, 20GB if you want to be sure 20GB+ If you intend to store data (music, video, isos, virtual machines) on the partition as well.
[10:09] <GOMI> oke
[10:09] <Diverdude> milamber, i set it to 10MB, did update and restarted
[10:09] <bullgard> GOMI: This sometimes happens if you are using a proprietary flash driver.
[10:09] <Diverdude> but still gives the same error
[10:10] <GOMI> aha ok
[10:11] <milamber> Diverdude: did you do apt-cache clean?
[10:11] <hayz> arand: ok im having a 10GB for my OS as "/" mount point and the rest 30GB for my "/home" as my Datadisk for my 40GB Hard Disk...
[10:11] <Diverdude> milamber, ahh now i tried setting it to 50Mb and it seems to work better
[10:12] <red2kic> hayz: If you only have 40GB HDD. It might be easier to get another HDD solely for your $HOME.
[10:13] <bullgard> In Ubuntu versions < 10.04 there was an entry  System > Administration > Services > (Services Settings) > Database server > 'mysql'. Where has it gone in Lucid and Maverick?
[10:13] <arand> hayz: Unless you really need a separate home partition, it could be useful to allocate it all to / unless you know specifically how much will be where in the end.
[10:14] <Diverdude> milamber, is it possible somehow to see how much cache size is actually needed ? Instead of just guessing
[10:15] <hayz> red2kic: i think that would be fine...coz most of the things we're doing where office like encoding reports and printing no games and other extra installation...
[10:15] <arand> hayz: Although I guess that you may be able to do resizing at a later time provided the /home and / partions are adjacent. ...or you could use lvm...
[10:16] <red2kic> hayz: Ah. Gotcha. That probably will be fine.
[10:16] <milamber> Diverdude: i think it depends on how much you are doing.
[10:17] <Diverdude> milamber, you mean how many packages are installed?
[10:17] <hayz> is there a way for to format another partition as FAT32 so that if reverting back to something like winxp OS that partition still be accessible and vice versa?...i'd remember last i cant do this...all i did was all were in ext4
[10:18] <red2kic> hayz: Windows Disc OS would install fat32/ntfs.
[10:18] <milamber> Diverdude: apt cache is similar to get, but a separate command: http://www.ccl.net/cca/software/UNIX/updating-redhat/apt-howto/how-to-use-apt-cache.html
[10:18] <red2kic> hayz: gparted can format fat32
[10:20] <arand> hayz: I would use ntfs unless it's on a usb stick.
[10:20] <Diverdude> milamber, apt-cache stats shows me: Total space accounted for: 17.4M
[10:20] <Diverdude> milamber, probably thats it
[10:20] <milamber> Diverdude: probably. that's why 50 was enough
[10:20] <hayz> arand: ubuntu can create partition NTFS?
[10:21] <arand> hayz: Installing ubuntu on ntfs might not be a very good idea though.
[10:21] <Odaym> there are tools for that
[10:21] <Odaym> but ubuntu on NTFS is NO
[10:21] <species> would that even work?
[10:21] <hayz> thats what im thinking
[10:21] <species> NTFS does support arbitrary properties on its nodes, so for example it can be used for unix type file permissions
[10:22] <GOMI> i dont think you get that option during install ?
[10:22] <Nevyn1> Süpecies, asking a group of certified nerds if it will work is a challenge.
[10:22] <iceroot> species: there is imo only a FUSE ntfs-driver, to its not working
[10:22] <hayz> is ext4 partition accessible or readble in windows XP OS?
[10:22] <iceroot> hayz: not by default but with ext4 drivers, yes
[10:22] <Odaym> but i think that NTFS is instructed to use page file instead of our swap partition
[10:22] <Odaym> maybe

[10:30] <red2kic> sillyman50: You wanted to downgrade something just for themes and lols? Whilst I'nt not against customizations, but consider if it is worth your time (30+m~) for gdm theme that you only see for five seconds mininum.
[10:31] <john123> hi
[10:31] <dr_Willis> you can instagll the older GDM. but i dont thin its worht the effort just for themes
[10:31] <yuzodo> hi
[10:32] <dr_Willis> there are a few features in the old gdm that some people may need. but Not many
[10:33] <SnowmanX11> Can somebody point me to a good guide, how to resize root partition? (I guess that LiveCD and Grub2 update is needed, isn't it?)
[10:33] <dr_Willis> live cd with gparted. and a lot of patience. :)
[10:33] <dr_Willis> make  backups first also.
[10:34] <SnowmanX11> dr_Willis: OK, but how?
[10:34] <dr_Willis> it may be easier to just move some system dirs to a new filesystem  to reoorgeniaz  the space
[10:34] <dr_Willis> boot gparted cd. use it to resize.. reboot.. hope it works.
[10:34] <SnowmanX11> and the grub?
[10:34] <dr_Willis> if needed - fix it. via live cd.
[10:34] <SnowmanX11> size will change, which may confuse the grub setup
[10:34] <dr_Willis> !fixgrub
[10:35] <AcePreshaw> dr_Willis: I can't see the icon it's runing I can see it
[10:35] <dr_Willis> it Might confuse it.. if the uuids change.
[10:35] <dr_Willis> !resetpanel | AcePreshaw
[10:35] <SnowmanX11> OK
[10:35] <AcePreshaw> Ok
[10:35] <juggernauts> Is there any way in which i can know which kernel functions are called whenever i type a command in terminal??
[10:36] <SnowmanX11> One more question. How can I grab the complete video DVD (cartoon for the kids) by compression to fit 4,5GB disc?
[10:37] <SnowmanX11> Like in DVD SHrink in MS
[10:37] <cosmo> I'm still pissed that when I was installing ubuntu it asked if I wanted to install it along side another operating system so I said yes and it proceeded to erase my win7 install
[10:38] <john123> i'm trying to disable some daemons (smbd, cupsd....). i have tried bum and sysv-rc-conf. the only service that disabled was bluetooth. what should i do?
[10:38] <dr_Willis> Or you messed up cosmo.. but in any case.. ine should always have backups.
[10:38] <dr_Willis> Ive had windowsw destroy Linux mch much much more then the reverse has ever happened.
[10:39] <natoka> john123: man update-rc.d
[10:39] <arand> cosmo: This should be reported as a bug, so the win7 partition is gone and the current ubuntu partition covers the whole disk?
[10:39] <dr_Willis> Ubuntu dosent really use sysv system any more john123  those tools may not work
[10:39] <dr_Willis> !upstart
[10:39] <cosmo> arand yep
[10:39] <juggernauts> Is there any way in which i can know which kernel functions are called whenever i type a command in terminal??
[10:39] <natoka> john123: or man invode-rc.d if you want to disable deamons temporarily
[10:40] <john123> ok thank you so much
[10:40] <_cronus_> SnowmanX11, you could use dvdshrink under wine, dvd95 or k9copy... among other tools
[10:40] <dr_Willis> john123 that info is not totally correct either.. usew the 'service' command as needed
[10:40] <dr_Willis> I use k9copy to backup  video dvds :)
[10:41] <cosmo> it's a kick in the pants to try going completly over to linux the only bad part is I dont have the preferences now for most of my stuff, thank god I put most of my games and media on another hard drive
[10:41] <arand> cosmo: If so report a bug on launchpad, against ubiquity (initially) and insclude the logs which should be present in /var/log/installer/ and/or /var/log/ubiquity
[10:41] <juggernauts> Is there any way in which i can know which kernel functions are called whenever i type a command in terminal???
[10:42] <dr_Willis> !debug
[10:42] <dr_Willis> I imagine anything calls 1000's of kernel functions...
[10:42] <kubz> awesome :3
[10:42] <juggernauts> thanks...i hope link helps...
[10:44] <john123> ok, i knew these tools, but i'd like an easier tool for my younger brother, so the command line is the only way for now, right?
[10:44] <dr_Willis> given how vague what you are asking is... :) i would be suprised..  heh.. debuging can get. complex.
[10:45] <dr_Willis> john123 what are yo trying to do exactly?
[10:45] <john123> just disable startup services
[10:46] <dr_Willis> what service?
[10:46] <dr_Willis> some are as simimple as editing /etc/init/whateer.conf to be whatever.DONTRUN
[10:46] <john123> smbd, cupsd
[10:46] <dr_Willis> look in /etc/init/
[10:47] <dr_Willis> i think both are ran from there. but may not be using those exacxt names
[10:47] <Repnina> Hi everyone
[10:47] <_cronus_> john123, check update-rc.d also
[10:48] <Repnina> I have a problem with ubuntu, can i get here support?
[10:48] <_cronus_> john123, *check out
[10:48] <kubz> Repnina: seems so :p
[10:48] <dr_Willis> the  rc.d stuff is for the older sysv system. thats slowly getting phased out.
[10:48] <john123> ok
[10:48] <dr_Willis> most of the rc.d scripts are in fact upstart scripts these days
[10:49] <roger_> Hey guys, does anyone know why a flash drive would unmount itself?
[10:49] <dr_Willis> read/write erors.. flakey usb port.. currupted filesystem
[10:49] <Repnina> I have intel wifi invilink 5150 and ubuntu 10.10 netbook edition on acer aspire one. And i can't make wifi work (
[10:49] <dr_Willis> roger_ check dmesg output when it happens
[10:50] <rick__> how can I find out whether I'm running 32 or 64 bit version of ubuntu?
[10:50] <roger_> dr_Willis: Both my usb ports do this. Ok, let me check that output
[10:50] <dr_Willis> sounds like possible bad usb disk, or filesystem
[10:50] <linux_user> Hi, Sorry if my question was being asked before,.. I've installed linux on my usb,. and I managed to make about 3GB storage for saving my files.. now I've downloaded a driver installer.. and every time I'm trying to install it it says "the free space is 0"
[10:51] <dr_Willis> and how big is the usb disk?
[10:51] <dr_Willis> 3gb isa not a lot of space...
[10:51] <Diverdude> what is sslug?
[10:51] <roger_> dr_Willis: It's happening on my usb stick as well. I believe it's the filesystem. it's 16gb
[10:51] <roger_> on my *new usb stick
[10:51] <dr_Willis> fsck the fileysstem, or reformat it. perhaps.
[10:52] <linux_user> 8GB
[10:52] <linux_user> and I have about 3.5GB free

[10:53] <Repnina> How to make work Intel 5150 on Ubuntu 10.10???
[10:53] <SnowmanX11> hayz: shortly: no way
[10:53] <lilytown> hello?
[10:53] <hayz> sounds good!
[10:53] <vietred> @rick__: try uname -m
[10:53] <linux_user> any idea..?
[10:54] <Diverdude> what is sslug?
[10:54] <rick__> How do I install a 64bit version of Wine? I have an old .wine dir I can't access otherwise
[10:55] <linux_user> sslug ?
[10:55] <mena> hi
[10:55] <mena> i have a problem with shutdown
[10:55] <SnowmanX11> meaning?
[10:56] <vietred> @rick: why don't you use google first?
[10:56] <mena> ???
[10:56] <roger_> If you guys have a minute to take a look, here's the output of dmesg for my usb stick unmount problem
[10:56] <roger_> https://pastebin.com/vX19jNsv
[10:56] <mena> i can't specific my error exactly
[10:56] <SnowmanX11> mena: what is the problem with shutdown?
[10:56] <dr_Willis> ive never noivued any wine stuff being 32 or 64bit dependant.
[10:57] <SnowmanX11> shymptom or something tangible
[10:57] <mena> my problem is when i shutdown ubuntu .....it hanging
[10:57] <SnowmanX11> for how long?
[10:57] <SnowmanX11> or never stops?
[10:58] <SnowmanX11> mena: look for sys logs
[10:58] <roger_> mena: I had the same problem, but the new updates fixed it. Have you updated lately?
[10:58] <SnowmanX11> there you may find the reason
[11:00] <hayz> my USB got infected by windows virus being inserted on other windows machine and started creating exe files with a folder icon...I could not delete them on windows machine...it always keep coming back...what I did is..run to Ubuntu OS machine and started deleting those I suspected exe files...thinking that It wont infect my Ubuntu OS machine...
[11:02] <linux_user> hayz, there is no way possible
[11:02] <dr_Willis> hayz it shouldent
[11:02] <dr_Willis> i would suggest just reformating the usb.
[11:02] <dr_Willis> and use some live antivirus cd on the windows box.
[11:03] <hayz> yeah before reformatting I should back up first my files...
[11:03] <hayz> that should be done on Ubuntu
[11:03] <linux_user> does anyone know how can I install a file from the source on an usb-os
[11:04] <linux_user> because its keep saying the the free space is zero
[11:04] <mena_> hi
[11:04] <linux_user> while it is not
[11:04] <roger_> hayz, if you're worried about a virus(which i doubt you have), you could always install and run clamtk. it's anti-virus for linux
[11:04] <dr_Willis> You can install a Live-cd typs setup to ausb flash drive. or ou can do a normal full install.
[11:05] <dr_Willis> linux_user  you have a save file that could be full. or the actual flash drive may be getting full.
[11:05] <Emanon> Hey, all the beta channel is #ubuntu-natty isn't it?
[11:05] <dr_Willis> Live-cd to flash setups can get full real fast. and are not ideal for constant updateing.
[11:05] <oCean> Emanon: #ubuntu+1
[11:05] <Emanon> ahh thanks oCean
[11:07] <mena_> h have a problem with shut down any one can help me?
[11:08] <linux_user> its not\
[11:08] <linux_user> it has 3.2GB
[11:08] <linux_user> anyway
[11:08] <linux_user> thanks
[11:09] <dr_Willis> if you did a install  to a 8gb flash drive. and made a 4gb 'persistant save file' that means you Are only using perhaps 5gb od the thole thing.
[11:09] <dr_Willis> clean out the apt cache perhaps. that can free up space.
[11:09] <cardiel> Which is the best sopcast software for ubuntu?

[12:59] <AcePreshaw> dhanijeremy, yea
[13:00] <ruan> i tried installing it from apt-get, but it says that it has no installation candidate
[13:00] <dhanesh> bazhang>so how can i check for bad sectors in ubuntu?
[13:00] <dhanijeremy> AcePreshaw, how do i activate it?
[13:00] <bazhang> dhanesh, badblocks ?
[13:00] <Dr_Willis> ruan:  you may want to find a diffent source/ppa for that program if it comes precompiled. or compile it youreslr.
[13:00] <gakhan> dhanesh, fsck -c
[13:01] <ruan> Dr_Willis: it has no source or ppa :/
[13:01] <dhanesh> gakhan> fsck how ?
[13:01] <ruan> its a linux version of a game, and the windows one doesn't run
[13:01] <Dr_Willis> ruan:  you may be out of luck. expecially if its an OLD game.
[13:01] <gakhan> fsck -c unmounted_device
[13:02] <ruan> last modified: jun 26 2007
[13:02] <dhanesh> how to run fsck

[13:04] <Dr_Willis> i recall having the native version als running.. but that was ages ago also.\
[13:04] <ruan> Dr_Willis: on wine it gives an error related to a sound lib
[13:04] <Dr_Willis> check the wine app database perhaps.

[13:05] <Cherish> Hi, Today I install apache on my ubuntu server , and enable ssl, but when I start my ubuntu server,the SSL let me imput password. After that it is dead.This is Why?
[13:06] <gakhan> Cherish, ssl has nothing to do with passwords
[13:06] <Cherish> I said the key's password
[13:07] <Cherish> openssl genrsa -des3 ...
[13:07] <Cherish> It needs password
[13:08] <Cherish> The error log is "Init: Private key not found",but my path is right
[13:08] <Cherish> When I used the key doesn't support password , have no error log.
[13:08] <dhanijeremy> I have a built in Broadcom wireless and D-Link USB Wireless and now i want to use my D-Link wireless, usually both device will show up in the wireless network but now only my Broadcom is shown. How do i fix this so that i can use any one of them anytime.

[13:32] <gakhan> bullgard, the program which runs when user sync logs in; also man sync
[13:32] <mongy> raven, check the UUID of your swap matches that in /etc/fstab
[13:33] <bullgard> gakhan: Who logs in? A 'user sync'? Who is that?
[13:33] <gakhan> bullgard, a user called 'sync'
[13:33] <raven> mongy, how to get the uuid?
[13:33] <bullgard> gakhan: Ah! Thank you.

[13:37] <S0LIDUS> Hi all, can anyone help me with update issues?
[13:37] <Duck32> !mintsupport | Duck32
[13:40] <coz_> S0LIDUS,  if you describe the issues someone may have a solution
[13:40] <FrameFever> how can I build qt from source
[13:40] <FrameFever> ?
[13:40] <ikonia> FrameFever: why do you want to ?
[13:41] <Odaym> it is...correct to run a mail server on a virtual machine running Ubuntu and Zimbra on it?
[13:42] <Odaym> it is just as functional as with a physical machine?
[13:42] <ikonia> Odaym: if you want
[13:42] <ikonia> Odaym: a virtual machine will work
[13:42] <Odaym> and what does it take to make a machine a mail server?
[13:42] <hamitron>  id 2tits4me
[13:42] <Odaym> something to change in /etc/hosts and then putting a mail application on it?
[13:42] <S0LIDUS> coz_, Yep thanks for that. Well when i try and install software from the synaptic package manager. It says it failed to download please check my network connection. I am connected to the internet though?
[13:42] <ikonia> Odaym: depends on a lot, size, thorughput, etc
[13:42] <rosetree> Hi, I have a problem with the Internet. I can connect with W-Lan and I can chat with Skype. But I can't use Opera, Firefox or something else ! I'm now online with a live CD. Has anyone an idea?
[13:43] <ikonia> rosetree: the browsers are in offline mode ?
[13:43] <amateur> ...
[13:43] <coz_> S0LIDUS,  ooo   have you tried from a terminal?
[13:43] <amateur> no tired
[13:43] <FrameFever> \msg ikopnia because I like to
[13:43] <coz_> S0LIDUS,  in terminal    sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade
[13:43] <ikonia> FrameFever: ok, then read the documentation about how to do it
[13:44] <FrameFever> there is no
[13:44] <rosetree> well, I hope not ... that would be really stupid!
[13:44] <ikonia> FrameFever: there is, there are README and INSTALL files within the source code
[13:44] <S0LIDUS> coz_, yep!
[13:44] <Odaym> can you advise a better mail server than Zimbra, ikonia
[13:44] <Odaym> ?
[13:44] <ikonia> Odaym: it's personal choice, exim/postfix/sendmail/qmail up to you
[13:44] <coz_> S0LIDUS,  did you install or delete anything just before you noticed this happend?
[13:44] <rosetree> but I'll try! Thanks ikonia
[13:45] <mrcreativity> anyone install the indicator-network applet?
[13:45] <S0LIDUS> coz_, Nope!
[13:45] <Pumpkin-> it is personal preference, zimbra has everything needed to "do mail" though. You can also go for piecemeal solutions where you need to pick seperate bits of software to do different bits of the mail job
[13:45] <FrameFever> how can i start a script ?
[13:46] <coz_> S0LIDUS,  then I may not be the person to  help with this one...so stick around and then repeat the issue
[13:46] <ikonia> FrameFever: just type the script name
[13:46] <Pumpkin-> like an SMTP server, an IMAP server, something to do webmail, something to do spamfiltering etc ..
[13:46] <FrameFever> ./configure
[13:46] <FrameFever> "not allowd"
[13:46] <ilya> it
[13:46] <S0LIDUS> coz_, Thank you for the suggestions!
[13:46] <medo> I'm using TwinView mode but I want to rotate one of the two monitors... how can I do this ?
[13:46] <ikonia> FrameFever: change the permissions
[13:46] <coz_> medo,  did you open nvidia-settings
[13:47] <FrameFever> how does I change the permisson?
[13:47] <Pumpkin-> FrameFever: is it executable ? (does ls -la ./configure have any x's in the permissions) ?
[13:47] <ikonia> FrameFever: if you don't know how to change permissions, you should not be blindly trying to compile software for no reason
[13:47] <ikonia> FrameFever: I'll ask again, what is the reason you want to build QT from source ? what is wrong with the version ubuntu has built for you
[13:47] <S0LIDUS> When I try and install software from the synaptic package manager. It says it failed to download please check my network connection. I am connected to the internet though?
[13:48] <ikonia> S0LIDUS: probably a dead mirror, in the termianl do "sudo apt-get update" does it error ?
[13:48] <FrameFever> because I want to know, how can I do it by my own
[13:48] <medo> coz_:  I managed only to rotate the two monitors, I want to rotate only one of them !
[13:48] <S0LIDUS> ikonia, In the terminal it says connection timeout.
[13:48] <ikonia> FrameFever: you are not at that level to be able to do it if you are not in a position to know how to change permissions
[13:48] <ikonia> FrameFever: I'd suggest checking https://help.ubuntu.com about learning the basics of using linux/ubuntu
[13:49] <ikonia> S0LIDUS: what software mirror is it using ?
[13:49] <FrameFever> no x in the permisson
[13:49] <zelev> S0LIDUS: the same thing happened to me and i switched my ubuntu software mirror from Spain to the Main server
[13:50] <S0LIDUS> zelev, Thanks !
[13:50] <zelev> S0LIDUS: applications, ubuntu software center, edit software sources, Ubuntu software tab and then: Download from
[13:50] <zelev> S0LIDUS: you´re welcome
[13:50] <ruan> yep, i had to switch my mirror today as well
[13:50] <ruan> downloads stalled and timed out
[13:51] <S0LIDUS> zelev, You fixed it, thanks.
[13:52] <S0LIDUS> ikonia, Thank you for your help!
[13:52] <zelev> S0LIDUS: I´m glad I could help
[13:53] <FrameFever> I dont found the tutorial for "how does I start a script"?
[13:54] <ttist25> good morning - would this be a good place to get help with a software RAID5 setup?
[13:57] <ttist25> can anyone help with a RAID5 setup?
[13:57] <Odaym> in SCP, the first operand is the source?
[13:58] <FrameFever> sudo bash script does start a script...
[14:00] <cellardoor_> Anybody here any good with Pascal or Lazarus? I know this is totally the wrong place to ask, but nobody is active in the
[14:00] <cellardoor_> appropriate channels.
[14:04] <oneliner> hello there, where is the path evironment variable stored?
[14:04] <Odaym> pwd you mean?
[14:04] <Odaym> /bin/pwd
[14:04] <oneliner> nope
[14:04] <oneliner> path
[14:04] <Odaym> ah path
[14:05] <_cronus_> oneliner, in the $PATH variable
[14:05] <jrib> oneliner: why do you ask?
[14:05] <oneliner> _cronus_: so far so good, how could i add to it a directory?
[14:06] <_cronus_> export PATH=$PATH:<directory>
[14:06] <miniminiyo> ubuntu-es
[14:06] <oneliner> jrib, am getting up to speed with assorted configuration methods
[14:06] <precubcr> pls
[14:06] <precubcr> #!/bin/bash
[14:06] <precubcr> if true [ $pwd -e "/home/cristian" ]
[14:06] <precubcr> then
[14:06] <precubcr> 	cd "home/cristian/Desktop"
[14:06] <precubcr> 	echo "Ya esta cambiado..."
[14:06] <precubcr> else
[14:06] <FloodBot2> precubcr: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
[14:07] <oneliner> _cronus_: would that overwritte other entries? would that survive a reboot?
[14:08] <jrib> oneliner: well the answer to your question depends on what exactly you want to do.  I can imagine at least 3 different things: (1) how to temporarily add a directory to my path (2) how to permanently add a directory to my path and (3) how to permanently add a directory to every user's path
[14:08] <Hammer> a
[14:08] <_cronus_> oneliner, it won't overwrite entries since what it does is it appends the directory to the path ($PATH is the original path value), but it won't survive reboot or be shared by shell sessions
[14:09] <oneliner> jrib, i know i could probably google each out, but if you could be so kind to exemplify, in a oneliner :)
[14:09] <micha_> hi, is there any program that allows me to write the output of a shell script directly to my gnome desktop ?
[14:09] <brontosaurusrex> how would i check if there is another gnome session running? (connecting via nx)
[14:09] <phix> hey
[14:10] <rigved> micha_: if the command is run from the terminal, you can pipe it to a file on your desktop. is this what you were looking for?
[14:10] <phix> why does ubuntu use an older kernel than debian?
[14:10] <jrib> oneliner: well what _cronus_ said earlier does (1).  To do (2) you essentially do (1) in ~/.profile.  If you view ~/.profile you'll see an example of this with ~/bin (the code there actually checks if ~/bin exists, and if it does, adds it to the PATH.  To do (3), you would use /etc/environment
[14:10] <phix> and why doeant it have proper xen support like debian?
[14:11] <rigved> phix: 10.04 uses 2.6.32-29        squeeze uses 2.6.32-5
[14:11] <oneliner> jrib: excelent, thank you very much
[14:11] <micha_> rigved: no not exactly, i am looking for a programm which displays text on the desktop for a defined time
[14:11] <rigved> phix: so debian uses an older kernel

[14:33] <rigved> bassharmo: are you getting any errors?
[14:33] <ruan> !requirements
[14:33] <prabhu> or where to start understanding it
[14:33] <cg2916> ok
[14:34] <prabhu> @rigved tat's ok ...
what?what where?
[14:34] <ruan> bassharmo: go to system > administration > software sources, download from: choose different server
[14:34] <ruan> bassharmo: i had the same problem today
[14:34] <prabhu> @sudipta u said tat u have tat sched.c file in kernel no? i found tat
[14:34] <bassharmo> thanks ruan
[14:34] <prabhu> but i cant find the same thing in my system
 yup
[14:35] <ccvvcc> is it possible to create custom log file to any app? so it will save automatically every output presented on the screen of the program?
[14:35] <ruan> ok, the count of people having that problem today is 5
[14:35] <rigved> prabhu: Linux Kernel in a Nutshell. google that. it's a free book. donwload it. read it. it'll help you get started
[14:35] <hiexpo> ruan, because i am getting this  hash sum mismatch
[14:35] <ruan> hiexpo: oh
[14:35] <prabhu> @rigved thank u:) i try it out
[14:35] <hiexpo> ruan, is that a repos problem or my system
[14:36] <_cronus_> ccvvcc, do you want to save the output of a command line app to a file?
[14:36] <patrols1> hi every one,
[14:36] <Potato> Yoinx, i m trying to retrive my mails from hotmail .. it s taking long time and that too on old ones...I've more than 2 thousand emails ..I want to receive only the newer ones or better if I can control which 1 to fetch and which 1 to not
[14:36] <ccvvcc> no
[14:36] <ruan> hiexpo: sudo apt-get update    try that
[14:36] <rigved> bassharmo: when you go to the choose server window, click on choose best server and choose that.
[14:36] <Potato> Yoinx, im using evoution
[14:36] <hiexpo> ruan, thats what i was running and getting that error
[14:36] <ccvvcc> i want to save the output of terminal includint applications run by it
[14:36] <ruan> hiexpo: oh
[14:36] <crazyzhang> 你们好
[14:36] <ruan> !cn | crazyzhang
[14:37] <ruan> if that is chinese
[14:37] <bugarmy> ruan: yes
[14:37] <Kakurady> That is Chinese.
[14:37] <Kakurady> Although, kinda un-Chinese-ish...
[14:37] <ruan> sometimes i find it difficult to distinguish between chinese/japanese
[14:37] <bugarmy> ruan: ah
[14:37] <Kakurady> They share many characters.
[14:37] <_cronus_> ccvvcc, how about redirecting the output of bash? you could use "tee" for it
[14:38] <Yoinx> Potato, unfortunately I don't know of any settings in evolution that would make it not syn your entire mail....
[14:38] <bassharmo> rigved: Just got "Spain" and "Main" (i'm translating from spanish) I'm switch from Spain to Main
[14:38] <prabhu> @rigved so how did ya expertise  in linux
[14:38] <Yoinx> What you *could* do is move all the mail on the server out of the inbox into a folder, then set evolution up to only download subscribed folders (perhaps)
[14:39] <Potato> thanks yoinx for responding
[14:39] <rigved> bassharmo: ok. if that fails, run the choose best server test again.
[14:39] <Yoinx> np, doubt that's really a solution for you though.
[14:39] <bassharmo> Thank you guys, everything working fine now.
[14:39] <laserbeam> guys.... I'm having some dbus memory leaks... can anyone here help?
[14:40] <rigved> prabhu: by experimenting with various options till you understand what each does.
[14:40] <Yoinx> laserbeam, why? If your memory is leaking... you'd just forget anyway. :p
[14:40] <laserbeam> = )) good one Yoinx
[14:41] <_cronus_> ccvvcc, screen has logging capabilities also
[14:41] <bassharmo> rigved: Did not know that option, thank you for your help. Ubuntu has an excellent community!
[14:41] <shubbar> i don't like samba share, some application i tried cannot access it
[14:41] <Yoinx> Is it for something you're writing, or something you downloaded?
[14:41] <laserbeam> nah... well... memory used by dbus got to 130 MB in 2 hrs of uptime
[14:41] <ccvvcc> thanks
[14:41] <prabhu> but that book says its for installing and configuring not the programming aspects
[14:42] <rigved> bassharmo: you are welcome. don't forget to spread the ubuntu worm to your friends, family etc.
[14:42] <rigved> laserbeam: ask in #dbus
[14:43] <nishant> how do I install the driver for my LCD ? I think its using the generic one . Mine is a netbook - Acer
[14:43] <bassharmo> rigvedd: I'll keep working at that!
[14:43] <laserbeam> ow... awesome rigved ... didn't know that channel existed
[14:43] <yuzodo> bassharmo, check my PM
[14:44] <prabhu> but that book says its for installing and configuring not the programming aspects
[14:44] <rigved> prabhu: read that first. you'll learn a thing or two about the kernel. then move on to http://tldp.org. you'll find a lot of documentation there
[14:44] <prabhu> okay :)
[14:45] <jnbptst> hello

[14:48] <hiexpo> Yoinx, what you mean changemy server
[14:48] <Yoinx> I'm on 'Server for United States' atm, and it's working fine
[14:49] <ruan> i had about 5 servers in my area so i just switched
[14:49] <Yoinx> hiexpo, system > administration > sources list
[14:49] <ruan> software sources
[14:49] <hiexpo> Yoinx, ok in there
[14:49] <stas> привет
[14:49] <ElNota> !ru | stas
[14:49] <Yoinx> you have a spot for "download from" you should have at least a 'main' and some sort of 'local'
[14:49] <Yoinx> toggle them, and see if you can download
[14:50] <Yoinx> or go to 'other' and try some mirrors at random
[14:50] <prabhu> when will ubuntu 11.04 will get released
[14:50] <ruan> !natty
[14:50] <prabhu> yeah
[14:50] <ruan> prabhu: see above
[14:51] <prabhu> cool
[14:51] <Yoinx> prabhu, you can download nightly builds of it now... but its not stable yet.
[14:51] <prabhu> alpha release?
[14:51] <ruan> alpha/betaish
[14:52] <Yoinx> http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/daily-live/current/ if you're interested.
[14:52] <bhavesh> erm can I ask a small c++ help here?
[14:52] <Hedgehog456> if i start compiz, will it become my permanent window manager?
[14:52] <Yoinx> you can toggle back hedgehog
[14:52] <ylmfos> 有中国人吗？
[14:52] <bhavesh> how can I make my screen pause.. I used getch(); earlier in windows but in g++ I cannot use getch.. whats a substitute for that?
[14:52] <prabhu> actually i found a bug with ubuntu
[14:53] <Yoinx> did you submit it?
[14:53] <ruan> bhavesh: you could try in #c++
[14:53] <prabhu> when i open a folder with image viewer for one time and if i open the folder again t opens with image viewer
[14:53] <ruan> 700 people in the channel iirc
[14:53] <Chapati> hi
[14:53] <prabhu> it can be solved by again opening with file manager
[14:53] <Yoinx> are checking the "always open" or "remember my select" (cant think of the check box)
[14:53] <Gavzorz> fun fun >>
[14:54] <Yoinx> that's checked by default?

[14:54] <Guest36171> пля, hello
[14:54] <mrdeb> has anyone noticed that 10.10 has better sound quality over 10.04
[14:54] <Potato> hi Chapati
[14:54] <mrdeb> what is the reason for this
[14:54] <oneliner> after altering /etc/environment do i need to "flush" the environment variables?
[14:54] <ruan> is it jp or is it chinese? again im confused
[14:54] <prabhu> but the thing is why ubuntu is taking it in such a way that a folder which should be always opened with file manager , isn't it?
[14:54] <Chapati> whenever i boot ubuntu on my (asus) laptop, the graphics fail. i get a scratchy screen and cannot do anything. any way to fix this?
[14:54] <MeanEYE> ruan: I thought it's japanese, but chinese is possible as well :/ kanji are quite the same
[14:55] <ruan> yep
[14:55] <illmortal> Can someone assist me with my wireless broadcom network card? At first it was listing my wireless card as, "not managed"... so I decided to sudo apt-get install bcmwl-kernel-source dkms   and now it's missing from the network manager device list =\
[14:55] <ruan> !broadcom
[14:55] <prabhu> @Chapati is it happening only for linux or for windows os too?
[14:56] <ugliefrog> do ssd hard drives work with ubuntu?
[14:56] <Chapati> prabhu: only ubuntu. i have another usb with backtrack and it loaded and installed fine
[14:56] <Aikar> rythymbox is way too buggy :/ cant wait for Ubuntu One store in banshee
[14:56] <_cronus_> jnbptst, "find -type d | tr  '[:lower:]' '[:upper:]'|uniq -c|less " might help. just check the count to be greater than 1
[14:56] <ruan> !ssd
[14:56] <ruan> !teach | ubottu
[14:56] <prabhu> @chapati then try downloading appropriate graphics driver for ur system
[14:56] <Aikar> I bought music last night and some are still stuck on "Transferring to your Ubuntu One Storage", most say download complete, yet none of the music is under "Purchased from Ubuntu One"
[14:56] <ylmfos> 娘希匹
[14:56] <Chapati> ic
[14:56] <Yoinx> aikar, try #ubuntu-one (i think's the channel)
[14:57] <mrdeb> did you buy music from the store?
[14:57] <MeanEYE> !cn | ylmfos
[14:57] <prabhu> @chapati or if u dono how to do it
[14:57] <Aikar> yes
[14:57] <Jonta_> Microsurvey: Easiest and second-easiest (and 3rd, 4th etc. if you want) mousemovement? (up, down etc.) /msg please. Thanks.
[14:57] <MeanEYE> ruan: it's chinese
[14:57] <Guest76997> Hello need help
[14:57] <prabhu> @chapati just go to desktop ,right click ,choose background preferences
[14:57] <ruan> MeanEYE: looks like it
[14:57] <MeanEYE> ruan: I had to check... :D

[14:57] <MeanEYE> Guest76997: shoot!
[14:57] <prabhu> @chapati select visual effects
[14:57] <Jonta_> Guest76997: State your problem
[14:57] <ShaZ> Hmm...
[14:58] <prabhu> @chapati then select extra
[14:58] <prabhu> @chapati if u dont have graphics driver installed it will automatically ask u to install
[14:58] <Chapati> ok

[15:00] <prabhu> wait
[15:00] <Yoinx> guest, http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1270055 here's a "SOLVED" for your exact error.
[15:01] <Guest76997> ok thank you very much
[15:01] <illmortal> Can someone assist me with my wireless broadcom network card? At first it was listing my wireless card as, "not managed"... so I decided to sudo apt-get install bcmwl-kernel-source dkms   and now it's missing from the network manager device list =\
[15:01] <Yoinx> just let us know if your problem isnt the same
[15:01] <jnbptst> _cronus_: thanks but it doesn't give me much conclusive results
[15:01] <ruan> !broadcom | illmortal
[15:01] <prabhu> is tat a problem with wireless?
[15:01] <Yoinx> ill, did you try the message ruan's giving your from the bot?
[15:01] <illmortal> ya.. that's not helping out my issue...
[15:01] <ruan> hmm
[15:01] <illmortal> of course.
[15:02] <Yoinx> just have to ask :p
[15:02] <prabhu> lol
[15:02] <Yoinx> Is your card showing when you do "lspci"
[15:02] <Jorge> hello, i am recently having trouble playing avi files. an error pops up saying to insert ubuntu studio 10.10. I have macbuntu install on my computer
[15:02] <jnbptst> _cronus_: actually, you are my hero. THANKS
[15:02] <Jonta_> Jorge: What error?
[15:03] <illmortal> Yes, it does, Yoinx
[15:03] <prabhu> @Jorge i think you have mounted ubuntu image
[15:04] <Hedgehog456> does ubuntu default-use metacity?
[15:04] <ruan> !info metacity
[15:04] <ruan> optional
[15:04] <prabhu> @Jorge try right clicking the avi  and open with movie player
[15:04] <hiexpo> ok i changed itto themain server and i am still getting this http://pastebin.com/B1yTNWPu
[15:04] <Jorge> i did
[15:04] <Yoinx> can you copy/paste the line for it ill?
[15:04] <Hedgehog456> what is the default WM then?
[15:04] <illmortal> When I activate the broadcom wireless card, it appears in network manager.. but reads, "device not managed"
[15:04] <hiexpo> i have never ever had thisproblem before
[15:04] <ruan> Hedgehog456: it might actually be default
[15:05] <Hedgehog456> i think it is...
[15:05] <Jonta_> Jorge: What error?
[15:05] <ruan> Hedgehog456: i have it installed, but i dont remember installing it
[15:05] <illmortal> Yoinx: http://pastebin.com/0tMBfLZb
[15:05] <prabhu> @Jorge was it running properly before?
[15:05] <Jorge> no
[15:06] <Jorge> i just started using it rite now
[15:06] <ruan> !info gedit
[15:06] <_cronus_> jnbptst, it should list the folders that have the same name - a good place to start
[15:06] <sveint> is there an own channel for natty discussion?
[15:06] <prabhu> @jorge hmmm then try getting codecs for video to play
[15:06] <ruan> Hedgehog456: i think everything in component main is preinstalled
[15:06] <ruan> !natty | sveint
[15:06] <_cronus_> jnbptst, you can then  check for files with the same name (omitting the -type d)
[15:06] <Yoinx> and you're on 10.10 ill?
[15:07] <sveint> thank you
[15:07] <illmortal> actually 10.04... would it be better to upgrade Ubuntu?
[15:07] <Jorge> prabhu : i did, but when i try, a message pops out saying that Ubuntu Stuio 10.10 is required
[15:07] <Raydiation> hi im looking for the kde 4.6 wallpaper in the biggest resolution possible, if someone could upload it id be gratefull
[15:07] <cg2916> I used WUBI to install ubuntu inside windows, and when I restarted and booted into ubuntu, i get a flashinmg white caret
[15:08] <prabhu> @jorge do you see any hard disk like icons got mounted in desktop?
[15:08] <ruan> cg2916: for how long now?
[15:08] <cg2916> ruan: about 5 minutes
[15:08] <cg2916> i could type into it
[15:08] <brontosaurusrex> Jorge: you may want to use VLC or smplayer, or install ubuntu restricted areas
[15:08] <ruan> cg2916: hmm
[15:08] <Jorge> prabhu: only a usb flash drive
[15:08] <jnbptst> _cronus_: got it. it is exactly what I needed, thanks so much
[15:08] <areeda> I get this occasionally and it somehow fixes itself if I type a return or a control-c
[15:09] <cg2916> ruan: i did use a virtual cd drive for wubi
[15:09] <prabhu> @jorge have ya plugged in any pen drives?
[15:09] <ruan> cg2916: looks like a failed boot
[15:09] <Jorge> yes
[15:09] <brontosaurusrex> Jorge: also note that there is gazzilion option on what might be inside a certain avi, google for 'mediainfo' - they have ubuntu debs as well
[15:09] <prabhu> @jorge hmmm do you have mp3 files?
[15:09] <cg2916> ruan: in that case, what should i do
[15:09] <Jorge> nope
[15:09] <ruan> cg2916: im not sure about wubi :S
[15:09] <ruan> !grub2
[15:10] <Yoinx> burg's prettier ;)
[15:10] <Yoinx> But, it needs grub2 anyway
[15:10] <prabhu> i am asking it because once u have it and on playing it will lead you to have download codecs
[15:10] <cg2916> ruan: do you know what wubi is?
[15:10] <prabhu> which in turn will solve your avi problems
[15:10] <ruan> cg2916: yes
[15:10] <cg2916> ruan: ok
[15:10] <hiexpo> ok i see nooneis gonna help me with this problem with thesources so i can not upodate or do anything on this computer now
[15:10] <ruan> cg2916: im just not very experienced with wubi
[15:10] <cg2916> ruan: well, i wanted ubuntu over crappy vista
[15:10] <illmortal> Yoinx am I better off just updating from 10.04LTS to 10.10?
[15:10] <ruan> cg2916: i've heard of problems with wubi
[15:11] <cg2916> ruan: ok
[15:11] <ruan> cg2916: you can dual boot ubuntu
[15:11] <Yoinx> ahh sorry ill, i sent you something in a message
[15:11] <Yoinx> and nah, you souldnt need to.
[15:11] <cg2916> ruan: how?
[15:11] <Yoinx> what does your /etc/NetworkManager/nm-system-settings.conf file say?
[15:11] <illmortal> let me check.
[15:11] <ruan> cg2916: instead of using wubi, you could use a livecd to install
[15:11] <ruan> cg2916: or a liveusb
[15:11] <cg2916> ruan: can i make my own?
[15:11] <Yoinx> ruan, wubi is the livecd
[15:11] <Yoinx> its what runs when you load it in windows...
[15:12] <ruan> Yoinx: no, wubi is windows installed for ubuntu
[15:12] <ruan> !wubi
[15:12] <Yoinx> yeah, its on the livecd as well.
[15:12] <cg2916> ruan: i have windows, wubi runs in windows
[15:12] <ugliefrog> MIC CHECK
[15:12] <Yoinx> if you boot up the cd in windows, wubi launches.
[15:12] <ruan> Yoinx: yes, but if you boot up the cd, it doesnt install with wubi
[15:12] <cg2916> ruan: yes it does
[15:13] <Yoinx> sorry, I meant launch. But yeah, I wouldn't use wubi either.
[15:13] <prabhu> actually wubi is for checking out how ubuntu is ...its like a promo for ubuntu :)
[15:13] <illmortal> Yoinx:
[15:13] <jnbptst> _cronus_: is there any way to save the output in a txt file for easy search?
[15:13] <illmortal> [main]
[15:13] <ruan> cg2916: livecd install is different from wubi install
[15:13] <illmortal> plugins=ifupdown,keyfile
[15:13] <Yoinx> Nah, he means if you actually boot the computer off it.
[15:13] <illmortal> no-auto-default=00:22:15:9c:a4:8a,00:22:15:9c:8f:1f,
[15:13] <FloodBot2> illmortal: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
[15:13] <illmortal> [ifupdown]
[15:13] <illmortal> managed=false
[15:13] <cg2916> ruan: ok, where do i get a livecd
[15:13] <bhavesh> I <3 ubuntu :)
[15:13] <hiexpo> ok when i changed my server from us to main it stopped some of the errors but still getting some hash sum mismatch errors on a fewoftheubuntu sites how do i fix this and what caused it
[15:13] <ruan> cg2916: you burn the iso to a cd OR you copy the iso's contents to a usb
[15:13] <ruan> flash drive
[15:14] <ruan> !install
[15:14] <prabhu> @Jorge try installing vlc player and play files
[15:14] <_cronus_> jnbptst, remove the | less at the end and put a redirection to a file ( > somefile.lst)
[15:14] <cg2916> ruan: i did burn the iso to a cd, it loads wubi
[15:14] <prabhu> yeah it will if u use in windows
[15:14] <ruan> cg2916: boot off the cd
[15:14] <Jonta_> prabhu: Poke
[15:15] <cg2916> ok
[15:15] <prabhu> @jona lol
[15:15] <prabhu> @jonta
[15:15] <jnbptst> _cronus_: so that would be find -type d | tr  '[:lower:]' '[:upper:]'|uniq -c|  > somefile.lst   ?
[15:15] <bhavesh> just bring up the boot screen and u are done :D
[15:15] <prabhu> @cg2916 but if u have pen drive it will be lot more easier
[15:15] <bhavesh> yes
[15:15] <prabhu> @cg2916 u dont need to waste a cd
[15:16] <ruan> yeh. i tried to boot off usb but my motherboard refused
[15:16] <cg2916> prabhu: will I need to format my usb?
[15:16] <ruan> cg2916: i doubt it, just put everything in a different folder though
[15:16] <prabhu> @cg2916 not necessary if u have enough space
[15:16] <_cronus_> jnbptst, find -type d | tr  '[:lower:]' '[:upper:]'|uniq -c > somefile.lst
[15:16] <cg2916> ok
[15:17] <prabhu> @cg2916 cool
[15:17] <jnbptst> _cronus_: thanks!
[15:17] <ruan> i think i should've disabled hard drive boot when i tried usb
[15:17] <ruan> in bios
[15:17] <prabhu> @ruan u dont need to disable , just change the priority
[15:18] <ruan> prabhu: i did
[15:18] <ruan> prabhu: with 2 usbs
[15:18] <ruan> and 3 different usb creators
[15:18] <prabhu> @yeah good
[15:18] <prabhu> @ruan but u dint get ?
[15:18] <ruan> prabhu: nope, i couldnt boot off my usb
[15:18] <hiexpo> ok i can not seem to find an answer for this problem so now ubuntu has become completely useless to me so i am going have to do a reinstall pof some distro
[15:19] <omikron4> for those who have lost MBR after winthows install I've developed an aplication which recover grub 2 and for those never actualize ubuntu nor install any other a aplication (loosing root password) It s in spanish language until I'll know much more english... I hope you'll never need it. http://dl.dropbox.com/u/6738015/Recovery.tar.gz
[15:19] <prabhu> @ruan u have startup disk creater?
[15:19] <hiexpo> maybe it is time to try mint
[15:19] <ruan> prabhu: wanted to use that but when i chose the iso nothing happened
[15:20] <ruan> prabhu: but it doesnt matter now, i've used a livecd install
[15:20] <prabhu> @ruan oki
[15:21] <prabhu> @ruan but try using usb, learning experience
[15:21] <hiexpo> does noone know why i am getting this hash sum mismatch when trying to update or upgrade my software
[15:21] <ruan> hiexpo: have you tried sudo apt-get check?
[15:21] <hiexpo> ruan, no let me see
[15:21] <prabhu> or sudo apt-get update
[15:22] <ruan> yeah he tried sudo apt-get update
[15:22] <amp_> hi
[15:22] <prabhu> hmmm
[15:22] <prabhu> hi
[15:22] <hiexpo> sudo apt-get update is giving me those errors
[15:22] <yuzodo> hey amp_
[15:22] <ruan> !info aptitude
[15:23] <hiexpo> still sameproblem
[15:23] <erUSUL> hiexpo: a single warning ( not error ) that probably will go away in a day or two has made ubuntu *useless* for you ? ¬.¬
[15:23] <Yoinx> hiexpo,  is it just one repo that's doing it when you do it from the command line, or all of them?
[15:23] <erUSUL> the paste he provided is about the partner repo.
[15:23] <_cronus_> hiexpo, try software sources > authentication > restore default
[15:23] <erUSUL> he/she
[15:24] <black_> hello, need help with the backtrack in ubuntu please got the repo and gpg keys
[15:24] <erUSUL> !backtrack
[15:24] <bazhang> black_, use the backtrack channel not here
[15:25] <Jonta_> Still might be applicable for Ubuntu as well though
[15:25] <bazhang> nope
[15:25] <Jonta_> Not necessarily BT-specific
[15:25] <prabhu> yup
[15:25] <Jonta_> No?
[15:25] <bazhang> not supported here
[15:25] <ruan> repos are different
[15:25] <ugliefrog> ubottu | ugliefrog
[15:25] <hiexpo> _cronus_, now ifi do restoredefaults is thisgonna deleted all the other stuff i have added like mediabuntu
[15:25] <guest> where does ubuntu store user "startup applications" ie preferences->startup applications ?
[15:25] <Jonta_> Reading the question again, probably not
[15:25] <ugliefrog> ubottu ssd
[15:26] <ruan> guest: preferences > startup applications...
[15:26] <guest> yes..
[15:26] <guest> but from bash
[15:26] <_cronus_> hiexpo, it shouldn't
[15:26] <Jonta_> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AddingProgramToSessionStartup
[15:26] <hiexpo> ok
[15:26] <jnbptst> _cronus_: that formula wouldn't work for names that are similar because of accents right?
[15:26] <guest> ive added a startup script that wont allow me to load gnome
[15:26] <guest> so i need the actual script locations
[15:26] <ruan> init?
[15:26] <jnbptst> _cronus_: it wouldn't identify an e from an é or a è?
[15:27] <Rizzo> hey
[15:27] <guest> mm.. they are user level, i think they are running from home/user/?
[15:27] <phoenixsampras> help please
[15:28] <_cronus_> jnbptst, no. just uppercase and lowercase
[15:28] <ruan> phoenixsampras: yes?
[15:28] <prabhu> what help?
[15:28] <hiexpo> _cronus_, nope still the same look http://pastebin.com/XvVJc6Hg
[15:28] <_cronus_> jnbptst, does mac see then as equal?
[15:28] <delac> going to upgrade from lucid to maveric. have previously removed unneeded pacjages such as indicator-me and ubuntuone-stuff. Are they going to be reinstalled automatically on upgrade? Should I reinstall them before I upgrade to avoid any possible problems at upgrade?
[15:29] <jnbptst> _cronus_: not sure
[15:29] <prabhu> @delac no need

[15:30] <EricSon12331> hi there i was looking forward to setup a full encrypted ubuntu 10.10 using this script " http://readm3.org/os/ubuntu/full-disk-encryption-lvm-luks.sh "
[15:30] <jnbptst> _cronus_: just checked, it seems so
[15:30] <_cronus_> hiexpo, how about aptitude update?
[15:30] <EricSon12331> and the ubuntu-live-session
[15:30] <oneliner> ok so after altering the path environment variable in /etc/environment the login user can uses it but sudo dosent seem to find apps listed in its path, any ideas why sudo dosent handle the same path as user?
[15:30] <hiexpo> let me try
[15:31] <EricSon12331> but after i checked the dm-crypt wiki i found out, that dm-crypt has 2-factor-authentication...
[15:31] <Jonta_> guest: Couldn't you start up GNOME manually? Then change it from there?
[15:31] <bhavesh> Why do I always get "Waiting for Jockey-backend to end"? when I try to install anything from software centre?
[15:31] <EricSon12331> and after googling a bit, i found this here " http://lfde.org "
[15:31] <Bamboo> 你们到底在干吗啊 我不是很懂哦

[15:31] <ruan> !cn | Bamboo
[15:32] <ExplodingPiglets> Are there any animation programs that save as SWF files?
[15:32] <STALKER> hi all
[15:32] <bhavesh> I cannot install anything becoz of Jockey-backend...
[15:32] <panfist> my computer won't boot into newer kernel versions. the latest version of ubuntu that it boots into is 9.10, but if i upgrade that, it does not work. 10.04 or 10.10 live cds do not work, either
[15:32] <bhavesh> searched everywhere.. the results are mostly useless
[15:32] <Yoinx> hiexpo,  just wait a little while. Every search I do for your problem says it clears up.
[15:33] <panfist> basically if i install from 9.10 and always choose the oldest kernel version from grub, it works
[15:33] <Jonta_> ExplodingPiglets: Ktoon?
[15:33] <lordjj> Hi, can someone tell me how to disable Write Caching on my External USB Hard Drive in Ubuntu? Also will this disable it locally on my machine, or will it affect the external HDD such that wherever I connect it write caching will be disabled?
[15:33] <hiexpo> Yoinx, ok
[15:33] <bhavesh> All I have to do is restart ubuntu to install it...
[15:33] <Yoinx> most of us are probably on maverick, so we're using different repos.
[15:33] <Bamboo> Yoinx,ok
[15:33] <ExplodingPiglets> sudo apt-get install ktoon
[15:33] <ExplodingPiglets> er
[15:33] <ExplodingPiglets> I thought my cursor was in the terminal lol
[15:33] <Jonta_> ^^
[15:33] <phonex01> hello guys , anyone know a good video editing software working under ubuntu i mean something like sony vegas ?

[15:51] <RubenAlonzo> thank you very much,ubotto. my emachines em250 netbook came with Win7 Starter but it was so slow is why i decided on Ubuntu and i am very impressed that everything worked out of the box, even built in webcam.

[16:06] <BluesKaj> cinnabarisland12, "hidden wireless network" ?
[16:06] <ohzie> cinnabarisland12: Make sure your router is plugged in and accepting connections

[16:14] <bitgrazer> Can touchpad being wonky on ubuntu somehow contaminate windows?  my gut says no, but i have one that worked for a day on windows, then worked for a day on ubuntu, but now broke on ubuntu and when I go back to windows, is still broken.  I figure this is hardware, but is it possible it isn't?
[16:14] <MeanEYE> Guest96779: IRC
[16:15] <cinnabarisland12> MeanEYE: oh hi MeanEYE, you'll remember mefrom yesterday, hopefully :P
[16:15] <Guest96779> ok i will try again, and is there a certain server i type in irc? do i enter irc.freenode.net?
[16:15] <forkup> bitgrazer: sounds like hardward
[16:15] <yuzodo> yeah
[16:15] <MeanEYE> cinnabarisland12: :D hi. yes I remember the nick but  not the problem :D

[16:15] <yuzodo> that's good Guest96779
[16:16] <MeanEYE> cinnabarisland12: I have a handy brain, purges everything automatically :D
[16:16] <cinnabarisland12> MeanEYE: wifi wasn't reconnecting after a reboot which you helped me fix but I've screwed it up again :(
[16:16] <MeanEYE> cinnabarisland12: haha congratz
[16:17] <tomasm-> anyone know how i can switch resolutions in X by the ctrl+alt+plus/minus ? sometimes im playing games and they crash or dont set the resolution back properly
[16:17] <Guest96779> ok, hopefully, like MacArthur, i shall return. will give it another go. Thank  you all for the patience and help in my questions.
[16:17] <cinnabarisland12> MeanEYE: lol I figured the same might apply to the 64bit version, turns out it doesn't :P
[16:17] <yuzodo> :)
[16:17] <MeanEYE> cinnabarisland12: really?
[16:18] <MeanEYE> cinnabarisland12: did you check logs?
[16:18] <cinnabarisland12> MeanEYE: yep, I figured it must be the driver for the wifi card so I reinstall the 32bit version and guess what? doesn't reconnect to the wifi after a reboot or your fix
[16:18] <cinnabarisland12> MeanEYE: logs?
[16:18] <MeanEYE> cinnabarisland12: System -> Administration -> Log Viewer or something like that, you'll see changing logs get black...
[16:20] <cinnabarisland12> MeanEYE: ah right ok, I'll try the whole thing again and I can't get it going then it's out with the Fedora CD (oh joy of joys)

[16:40] <geirha> azizLIGHTS: They'll get a few tries, then it'll get silent.
[16:41] <RubenAlonzo> i shall return everyone, (hopefully) i will go read on the ubuntu manual as i am completely new to it and would like to get a handle on the terms like sudo and such.
[16:42] <jetscreamer> what's the current stable version

[16:44] <jetscreamer> i forget
[16:45] <jetscreamer> you can do it per application type, get a list with --help i think
[16:45] <jetscreamer> or just man update-alternatives

[16:52] <gilburtgtr> coz_: thanks
[16:52] <lordjj> does Ubuntu use Write Caching on external drives??
[16:52] <MarconM> my ethernet dont connect
[16:53] <eliezer> can ubuntu mount images on desktop with out using external softwares ?
[16:53] <phoenixsampras> help please
[16:53] <coz_> phoenixsampras,  what is the issue
[16:54] <MeanEYE> eliezer: yes
[16:54] <MarconM> eliezer, i dont understand what you want ?
[16:54] <MeanEYE> eliezer: ISO images, NRG nope
[16:54] <MarconM> to mount external images
[16:54] <MeanEYE> MarconM: access ISO image contents without burning it, just mounting it to local folder
[16:55] <eliezer> MeanEYE:) i got an option mounting with archive mounter but it does not mount on desktop after i click
[16:57] <Dr_Willis> the fuseiso and i think fuseiso9660 tools can mount nrg and other cd/dvd images.
[16:57] <MeanEYE> eliezer: mount -t auto -o loop /what /where
[16:57] <MeanEYE> eliezer: something like that
[16:57] <Dr_Willis> !iso
[16:57] <ruan> if you mount an iso to /media/cdrom0 with gmount-iso, it's bound to appear on your desktop.
[16:57] <MeanEYE> Dr_Willis: thank you!
[16:58] <Dr_Willis> I think gnome has a setting to show any mounted devices on the desktop.
[16:58] <MeanEYE> Dr_Willis: it does
[16:58] <chain> !iso
[16:58] <Dr_Willis> a cluttered desktop. :) what fun.
[16:59] <eliezer> Dr_Willis:) i remember just clicking on images and they automount and even appear on nautilus to see content of image
[16:59] <Dr_Willis> theres some nautilus extensions that do that i recall. check the pacakge manager.
[16:59] <ruan> i remember when i extracted all directx modules to desktop.. it was literally full
[16:59] <Kamakazi> nice
[17:00] <derp> LULZ lol
[17:01] <Dr_Willis> seems the trend is slowly moving away from Desktops filled with icons. :)  they are beccoming where they auto sort and keep things neet and tidy now.
[17:02] <chain> kk
[17:02] <donnib> hi
[17:02] <chain> eliezer: for more explanation about mount you can type man mount
[17:02] <yuzodo> hey there donnib
[17:03] <Dr_Willis> !mount | eliezer
[17:03] <donnib> what's the best torrent client for linux ? something simmilar to utorrent on windows ?
[17:03] <yuzodo> donnib, transmission
[17:03] <yuzodo> !transmission | donnib
[17:03] <Dr_Willis> donnib:  theres dozens of them.. there is utorrent for linux. but its web-interface only
[17:03] <Dr_Willis> donnib:  it all depends on your needs.
[17:03] <ruan> im using qbittorent at the moment
[17:03] <donnib> can it do stuff like, move when done to folder, web interface, watch folder for added torrents ?
[17:03] <yuzodo> yup donnib
[17:04] <Ph03b3> Hello!
[17:04] <awanti> geirha: its not getting connecting its showing "connection to host 192.168.1.x was close"
[17:04] <awanti> Presently i am testing this in vmware.
[17:04] <ruan> donnib: what's a web interface?
[17:04] <donnib> i am talking a webserver
[17:04] <ruan> ah
[17:05] <mneptok> donnib: look at Deluge, too
[17:05] <ruan> qbittorrent can doo all of those you mentioned
[17:05] <ruan> do*
[17:05] <Dr_Willis> Most all the torrents can do those features.
[17:05] <Hedgehog456> is there an apache httpd package?
[17:05] <Ph03b3> Have any of you ever heard of problems with drivers for the Canon Pixma MG5150? I can't find any ubuntu related ones on the web.
[17:05] <Dr_Willis> Canon has very very very poor linux support Ph03b3
[17:06] <donnib> mneptok: will look at it, thx
[17:06] <Hedgehog456> what about advent printers?
[17:06] <Dr_Willis> I plan on never buying canon again.
[17:06] <FarkingBish> !apache | Hedgehog456
[17:06] <Dr_Willis> Even some canon printers that have 'drivers' often have very limited drivers.  You dont want me to get into the issues ive had with canon. :)
[17:07] <alabd> Good day all , where to find a driver source in ubutnu ?
[17:07] <ruan> alabd: depends on the driver
[17:07] <donnib> one thing that utorrent is quite bad at is, you can't sort stuff in the web interface, you can't do something when every torrent is done
[17:08] <ruan> and if you want the source, you're in for a hard search..
[17:08] <galaxyAbstractor> hey
[17:08] <yuzodo> hey
[17:08] <donnib> sorting in utorrent is also bad
[17:08] <oCean> !best | donnib
[17:08] <alabd> ruan driver name is poseidon and it's for tlg2300 chip
[17:08] <Katronix> Can anyone recommend a good free alternative to cPanel for Ubuntu?
[17:09] <ruan> donnib: i suggest you try the mentioned applications and see for yourself
[17:09] <W3ird_N3rd> http://www.ubuntu.com/desktop/get-ubuntu/download says that I need a USB stick with "at least 2GB of free space". Really? 1GB not gonna cut it? You need more space on a USB stick than the ISO takes?
[17:09] <donnib> yeah, thx for the input
[17:09] <galaxyAbstractor> is SSH enabled by default in ubuntu, or do I need to enable it myself some way?
[17:10] <ruan> !ssh
[17:10] <erUSUL> galaxyAbstractor: you have to install the ssh server
[17:10] <erUSUL> !sshd > galaxyAbstractor
[17:10] <ruan> yep
[17:10] <xangua> W3ird_N3rd: if you are going for a persistent install on an usb, sure
[17:10] <W3ird_N3rd> xangua, I want to install from USB (USB startup disk generator)
[17:11] <W3ird_N3rd> I don't want to install on USB, but from

[17:12] <UnderSampled> how do I share my cellular network with other computers over wifi?
[17:13] <galaxyAbstractor> seems like SSH is already set up, but I am getting "Permission denied" when trying to login
[17:13] <galaxyAbstractor> (I didn't see that tutorial mentioning anything about requirement to add users to it??)
[17:13] <Katronix> anyone have any suggestions?
[17:14] <W3ird_N3rd> zvacet, thanks, it says netbook is ok with 1GB but desktop/server needs 2GB..
[17:14] <ruan> Katronix: what is cpanel?
[17:14] <ruan> Katronix: some kind of dock?
[17:14] <galaxyAbstractor> a webhosting panel
[17:15] <Katronix> ruan its a web based way to manage domains etc
[17:16] <erUSUL> ispconfig ? http://www.howtoforge.com/perfect-server-ubuntu-10.04-lucid-lynx-ispconfig-3
[17:17] <kevdog> UnderSampled: wireless tether
[17:17] <azizLIGHTS> what is all this in "who", it looks like myip:S.1, myip:S.2, myip:S.3 .. etc
[17:17] <_cronus_> Katronix, i have used ispconfig with decent results
[17:18] <ruan> is there a way i can seed an ubuntu torrent without the partfile?
[17:18] <Katronix> ok I'll look into it
[17:18] <azizLIGHTS> theres also one that looks like :pts/1:S.0
[17:18] <ruan> just the iso
[17:19] <UnderSampled> kevdog: how?
[17:19] <brunn123> hello
[17:19] <geirha> awanti: Sure you've set the vm's network up properly?
[17:19] <kevdog> UnderSampled: Not sure what you mean -- you using android?
[17:19] <UnderSampled> no
[17:19] <UnderSampled> it's a usb card
[17:19] <brunn123> i haw big problem with ricoh dvd reading in ubuntu
[17:20] <UnderSampled> i'm trying to share it's internet with multiple computers
[17:20] <geirha> awanti: Normally, the default is so that you can't contact the VM from the outside, but the VM can contact the outside.
[17:20] <kevdog> UnderSampled: Not sure then -- I've only wirelessly tethered to phone -- however what you want to do is called Internet Connection Sharing
[17:20] <awanti> OK i will try..
[17:22] <brunn123> searching and googling but all seem to saing that nothing possible?
[17:24] <Polah> Is there an application I can use to attempt to repair an NTFS filesystem? The filesystem on a drive is corrupt, but Disk Utility keeps saying it's clean
[17:26] <erUSUL> Polah: ntfs utils in linux are limited... better look for windows software
[17:26] <ruan> the only data recovery util i know is testdisk, but that's limited
[17:27] <Anon31> anyone near makati? T or group T anyone? Power B here with place
[17:27] <oCean> Anon31: what?
[17:27] <Anon31> oops sorry
[17:28] <ruan> lol
[17:28] <Anon31> wrong room
[17:28] <erUSUL> Polah: if what you want is do data recovery then...
[17:28] <erUSUL> !undelete | Polah
[17:28] <marTech> ho
[17:29] <_cronus_> UnderSampled, you could create a new wireless network using network manager and select shared to other computers under ip4 settings
[17:32] <Aikar> ok, i dont understand this. Xinerama setting on nvidia drivers is required to have desired behavior for dual monitors, do we really have to give up alot of apps that want the compiz stuff or is there another solution?
[17:33] <eliezer> http://pastebin.com/rcyvmn9E  i found this scrypt  - how can i install it ?
[17:33] <bcj> I've updated /etc/network/interfaces (setting a static IP) and run sudo /etc/init.d/networking restart, but the settings haven't taken - any ideas?

[17:35] <sburwood> I've two questions.  Just bought a Q6600 based computer.  What advantage would I have in using a 64-bit version of Ubuntu?
[17:35] <bcj> Maybe it's because the Ubuntu machine is on VirtualBox with NAT networking?
[17:35] <lusmus> what rss would you recommend?
[17:36] <mrdeb> sburwood: more responsive. however, flash is not officially supported, so you have to dl it and save it to the mozilla plugin folder.
[17:36] <GauravButola> can someone help http://askubuntu.com/questions/30063/dual-boot-10-10-and-11-04-cant-boot-into-10-10-after-an-update
[17:36] <Polah> Can anyone recommend a data recovery tool?
[17:36] <mneptok> Polah: for NTFS?
[17:36] <mneptok> lusmus: Google Reader
[17:37] <sburwood> Second question - I tested the CPU.  It's supposed to be a Quad 2.4.  CPU #2 is said to be 2.4.  The other cores are said to be at 1.6. Is that normal.
[17:37] <Polah> Mneptok: Yes
[17:37] <sburwood> ?
[17:37] <mneptok> Polah: use a Windows tool, as erUSUL already suggested
[17:37] <lusmus> mneptok: i meant a on the computer or something
[17:37] <ruan> sburwood: does it show as quad core if you run "cat /proc/cpuinfo"
[17:37] <mneptok> lusmus: Liferea
[17:37] <Polah> Mneptok: I don't have Windows available right now
[17:37] <reval> sburwood yeah, it's based on the power daemon that you are using, I agree with ruan's statement/question
[17:38] <sburwood> mneptok: hold on, I'll try
[17:38] <nit-wit> Polah, do you need to rocver stuff from a windows install.
[17:38] <mneptok> Polah: then you have a very serious risk of data loss using Linux tools
[17:38] <nit-wit> mneptok, that is not true with gtyhe information given.
[17:39] <nit-wit> *the
[17:39] <mneptok> nit-wit: huh?
[17:39] <Polah> Nit-Wit, Mneptok: I have a drive here with an NTFS partition on it. It's unmountable due to the filesystem being corrupt so I'd hope to be able to format, then use some data recovery tool to attempt to get the data back

[17:40] <aroman> dunmanifestin: what package name?
[17:40] <sburwood> ruan, Processor 0  = 2400, Processor 1 = 1600, Processor 2 = 1600, Processor 3 = 1600
[17:41] <Polah> nit-wit: No, how would I do that?
[17:41] <durre> and the same with .bashrc
[17:41] <erUSUL> aroman: System>Preferences>appearance||Effects set to none
[17:41] <dunmanifestin> well im using the simple compiz settings thing and using very light settings , it works but it locks up when i try log in
[17:42] <sburwood> ruan:  Processor 0 = 2400, Processors 1,2,3 = 1600
[17:42] <erUSUL> durre: why are you using sudo on your own profile? use a simpler editor like nano or gedit
[17:42] <thevishy> there is an ubuntu software for night time LCD dimming nayone knows the name
[17:42] <sburwood> Is that normal.
[17:42] <sburwood> ?
[17:42] <nit-wit> Polah, 3rd post  http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=694301
[17:42] <dunmanifestin> just use the ubuntu software center, its a simple tool compiz fusion
[17:42] <durre> erUSUL: this isnt a desktop version. SSH only
[17:42] <nit-wit> Polah, you can use a -f as well
[17:43] <sburwood> thanks for the answers.  I had never before gotten answers that quickly
[17:43] <erUSUL> durre: use nano then without sudo
[17:43] <Polah> Nit-wit: I'll try that now, thanks
[17:43] <sburwood> and I hope that everyone you know from Japon is safe.
[17:43] <sburwood> bye
[17:43] <dunmanifestin> aroman:sudo apt-get compiz-fusion should work
[17:43] <T-rock007> Hey guys i need some help with my video resolution
[17:43] <T-rock007> Can someone help me plz
[17:44] <Polah> Nit-wit: That failed as well
[17:44] <dunmanifestin> i need some help setting up compiz properly
[17:45] <erUSUL> !emerald | dunmanifestin
[17:45] <MarconM> dunmanifestin, what you want
[17:46] <MarconM> dunmanifestin, which distro your is using
[17:46] <erUSUL> !emerald --info
[17:46] <nit-wit> Polah, I would get to a windows computer and run a chkdsk /r if you can.
[17:46] <durre> erUSUL: it worked, thank you!
[17:46] <dunmanifestin> ubottu:im not worried about emerald i just want compiz to work.. are there no alternatives
[17:47] <ActionParsnip> dunmanifestin: kde can perform compositing
[17:47] <dunmanifestin> im using maverick
[17:47] <erUSUL> dunmanifestin: if you are using emrald + compiz then it may well explain the lockups
[17:47] <Dr_Willis> other window managers can do composting also.
[17:47] <erUSUL> dunmanifestin: first take emrald out of the equation
[17:47] <Dr_Willis> emerald is basically a dead project from what ive read.
[17:47] <dunmanifestin> okay emerald is gone.. im new to this
[17:48] <ActionParsnip> erUSUL: doesn't emerald replace compiz?
[17:48] <Dr_Willis> emerald is a wwindow decorator. one of 3 that compiz can use.
[17:48] <ActionParsnip> erUSUL: hence having to get it going with: emerald --replace
[17:48] <ActionParsnip> i see
[17:48] <erUSUL> ActionParsnip: compiz-fusion replaced oldcompiz + emerald back in 8.10 - 9.04 days
[17:48] <Dr_Willis> kde has one and so does  gnome. i forget their names.
[17:48] <haavard> how can I let iconv write output back to the same file?
[17:48] <haavard> like this: iconv -f latin1 -t UTF-8 1.txt -o 1.txt
[17:48] <Anon31> wrong room
[17:49] <aroman> is there any way of getting effects in metacity?
[17:49] <aroman> or can it just not do compositing animations?
[17:49] <Dr_Willis> metacity has compositing. but not the fancy effects.
[17:49] <dunmanifestin> so how do i best configure my machine to use its 3d acceleration
[17:49] <haavard> without specifying the file TWICE
[17:49] <Dr_Willis> some docks and other apps can use compositing for teransparancies and other effects
[17:49] <ActionParsnip> dunmanifestin: what video chip are you using?
[17:49] <haavard> something like: iconv -f latin1 -t UTF-8 1.txt -o SELF
[17:50] <phoenixsampras> help please
[17:50] <dunmanifestin> then whats the point of the fancy effects if theres nothing useful about it?
[17:50] <ruan> the point of fancy effects is to look fancy
[17:50] <nit-wit> Polah, have youlooked to see even though your not getting a mount if the HD shows up in gparted?
[17:50] <oCean> phoenixsampras: 'help please' is all you say. Why
[17:50] <dunmanifestin> ActionParsnip: ati radeon x1200 in me laptop..
[17:50] <Whisky_> I can just not establish my WiFi connection in shell. It says something something invalid arguement "MYKEY" when I do iwconfig wlan0 essid MYESSID key MYKEY
[17:51] <dunmanifestin> ruan: lol but you cant use any of the fancy effects
[17:51] <ActionParsnip> dunmanifestin: what make / model is the laptop please
[17:51] <luist> what do you guys think about a business card witth the phrase: "I don't work for money" big in the front and "It's all about the challenge" in the back, along with the info and a qrcode?
[17:51] <Dr_Willis> I find a few (very few) of the compiz effects usefull.
[17:51] <greenIT> hi, can anybody here program shellscripts? if yes, i have a question: i have 2 echo-commands (one before and one after another command) like the following:
[17:51] <dunmanifestin> its an emachines d620 amd 64
[17:51] <greenIT> echo "changing directory..."
[17:51] <greenIT> cd directory
[17:51] <greenIT> echo "done"
[17:51] <greenIT> however, is there any way to get the output of the 2 echo-commands in the same line?
[17:51] <FloodBot1> greenIT: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
[17:51] <Dr_Willis> greenIT:  echo has a option to not print a \n (line feed) so yes..
[17:52] <Dr_Willis> check its docs.
[17:52] <ActionParsnip> greenIT: ad a 2nd line as:   echo
[17:52] <greenIT> Dr_Willis, thx
[17:52] <erUSUL> Whisky_: maybe you have to do « key s:MYKEY  » for a clear text key
[17:52] <galaxyAbstractor> hey again :P
[17:52] <oCean> greenIT: echo -e "line one\c line two"
[17:52] <vlaar> luist you will sure get a few laughs
[17:52] <ActionParsnip> greenIT: so after the changing directory echo, add the echo line
[17:52] <galaxyAbstractor> I just installed some stuff with aptitude, how do I uninstall everything I just installed (wrong version of php :\)?
[17:53] <Dr_Willis> echo -n line1
[17:53] <Pumpkin-> from memory, the surpress newline is -n
[17:53] <Whisky_> erUSUL: Tried that too. No luck :(
[17:53] <erUSUL> greenIT: use echo -n in the first to avoid the newline. also you should chck cd return status. the dir may not exist
[17:53] <luist> vlaar: :P
[17:53] <greenIT> yay, thx for the many answers^^
[17:53] <erUSUL> Whisky_: note that iwconfig only works for wep
[17:53] <oCean> greenIT: that would be echo -e "line 1\c "; cd blah; echo "line 2"
[17:53] <B3vcard> Hello.
[17:53] <Whisky_> erUSUL: Oh! I'm on WAP
[17:53] <B3vcard> Just wondering if anyone has fixed the slow wifi problem on 10.10 64bit Ubuntu !?
[17:54] <erUSUL> greenIT: echo -n "changing directory..."; cd dir && echo "done" || echo "failed"
[17:54] <dunmanifestin> i havent even bothered with the wifi problems yet
[17:54] <azizLIGHTS> can u use ssh -R and -L together
[17:55] <kevdog> I don't think you can do that
[17:55] <bullgard> '~$ lsof | grep /var/log/kern.log' does not produce any output. How can I determine what program writes my file /var/log/kern.log?

[17:55] <Whisky_> erUSUL: How do I connect to WAP then?
[17:55] <dunmanifestin> i need help
[17:56] <Dr_Willis> dunmanifestin:  you have ran the addational drivers tool and installed whatever extra drivers that video card may need?
[17:56] <llutz> bullgard: used sudo?
[17:57] <bullgard> llutz: No. I wil repeat but using sudo.
[17:57] <jgcampbell300> hello, anyone good with samba ... I am trying to get samba4 installed but every time i try to install it does not seem to be droping the files where there suposto be... /etc/samba/smb.conf there is nothing in the dir and im wondering if anyone knows why
[17:57] <dunmanifestin> Dr_Willis:to my knowledge, yes.. the effects activate but after i logout, i try login and the screen locks up. maybe that was because of emerald. Im trying with KDE this time. will kde help with 3d rendering?
[17:58] <Dr_Willis> dunmanifestin:  kde has its own special effects.. and i would remove emerald and forget it ever existed...
[17:58] <greenIT> ok... one more question: is there a way to say the shellscript that the command is longer than one line? for example to put cd dir in one line and put && echo "done" in the line below?
[17:58] <Dr_Willis> greenIT:  yes.. You may want to be reading up on some bash tutorials soon. :)
[17:58] <bullgard> llutz: : "~$ sudo lsof | grep /var/log/kern.log; [sudo] password for detlef: ***; lsof: WARNING: can't stat() fuse.gvfs-fuse-daemon file system /home/detlef/.gvfs;  Output information may be incomplete. rsyslogd    815      syslog    5w      REG        8,6   425596     292906 /var/log/kern.log.'  --  Thank you very much for your help.

[17:59] <Katronix> Trying to reset my MySQL password, following the directions here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MysqlPasswordReset but seems the newest version of mysql works a little differently, are there updated directions anywhere?
[17:59] <greenIT> k, then i ask google^^
[17:59] <dunmanifestin> Dr_Willis:ive removed emerald let me see what KDE does. ill be back im sure
[17:59] <Katronix> It replies to  SET PASSWORD FOR root@'localhost' = PASSWORD('password'); with ERROR 1290 (HY000): The MySQL server is running with the --skip-grant-tables option so it cannot execute this statement
[18:00] <reval> Katronix, if you used the method I used, try using the password you gave as root instead of the mysql account too
[18:00] <erUSUL> Whisky_: via terminal commands... you have to use wpa_supplicant...
[18:01] <reval> there was something screwy like that involved, if you've been trying the password you gave as root, try it as the sql account, but either way the password worked, just for a different account than I had suspected
[18:01] <dgtl> hi there, i'm using ubuntu 10.10, and i wonder why there is no binary package for xine (libxine) which has vdpau enabled, also applications based on xine (kaffeine for example) is therefore unable to play 1080i (hdtv) content
[18:01] <dgtl> its hard to express how much that sucks to me
[18:02] <mrdeb> dgtl: interesting
[18:02] <kevdog> Whisky_: wpa_supplicant is a file that lists all your commands needed for wpa authentication
[18:02] <ActionParsnip> dgtl: try the vdpau ppa
[18:02] <MeanEYE> dgtl: there's Xorg drivers ppa with vdpau enabled
[18:02] <greenIT> Dr_Willis: yay, i found the command... pretty simple^^ i just have to put a backslash at the end of the line^^
[18:02] <dgtl> ActionParsnip, i wouldnt be here if i hadnt tried that before
[18:02] <dgtl> ActionParsnip, there are only packages for older ubuntu versions, not for 10.10
[18:03] <ActionParsnip> dgtl: I can't assume anything can I, do you expect me to assume some thing you may have tried!?
[18:03] <Whisky_> kevdog: I'll try that now. Thank you. Be right back.
[18:03] <ActionParsnip> dgtl: think about it
[18:03] <dgtl> ActionParsnip, not the point, no offense anyway
[18:03] <MeanEYE> dgtl: nvidia right?
[18:03] <ActionParsnip> dgtl: there is nothing you can do as I assume youo have tried every possible avenue of solution.....
[18:03] <dgtl> MeanEYE, yes
[18:04] <MeanEYE> dgtl: do you know how to add new repository?
[18:04] <ActionParsnip> dgtl: why don't you tell us what you have tried in order to helpus help you....
[18:04] <dgtl> MeanEYE, sure, i did
[18:04] <manukalibur> hello
[18:04] <andai> Anyone else having problems with watching more than one youtube video at the same time? 64 bit, google chrome
[18:04] <dgtl> MeanEYE, i added those ppa repos
[18:04] <Gnea> dgtl: the point of asking for help isn't to assume that everyone knows every avenue that you've attempted
[18:04] <MeanEYE> dgtl: nvidia-vdpau?!
[18:04] <durre> oops... I accidentaly messed up all my environment variables. where is "nano" located? I need to change my /etc/environment again :(
[18:04] <manukalibur> I have trouble getting an usb2vga adapter working
[18:04] <manukalibur> manufacturer is "manhatten"
[18:04] <ActionParsnip> andai: no but why and howcan you watch 2 videos at once?
[18:04] <dgtl> Gnea, again, not the point + no offense given
[18:04] <erUSUL> durre: /usr/bin/nano
[18:05] <kosiini> 64-bit Flash Player seems to explode if I try to watch 2 videos at the same time in Chromium
[18:05] <dgtl> MeanEYE, yes
[18:05] <manukalibur> when I modprobe sisusbvga nothing happens
[18:05] <dgtl> MeanEYE, there are no packages for 10.10
[18:05] <dgtl> MeanEYE, in those repos
[18:05] <MeanEYE> dgtl: oh I see
[18:05] <reval> I didn't know 64 bit flash was such a culprit, maybe that's what's screwing up my firefox 4 beta =/
[18:05] <andai> ActionParsnip: You open two windows!
[18:05] <vlaar> andai flash and 64-bit just suck big time
[18:05] <manukalibur> I'm on 10.10 64bit
[18:05] <manukalibur> can anyone help me?
[18:05] <andai> vlaar: Yeah. If i close the second one, the first one stops being weird/stuttering
[18:06] <ActionParsnip> andai: surely you can only watch one at a time, wouldnt the sound get garbles..
[18:06] <reval> ActionParsnip He might be an elvis impersonator like me =(
[18:06] <MeanEYE> dgtl: there's also ubuntu-x-swat ppa with newer drivers but I don't know if there's vdpau support
[18:06] <ActionParsnip> vlaar: never had an issue with 64bit flash
[18:06] <dgtl> MeanEYE, currently only mplayer is able to take advantage of vdpau in 10.10, i wonder why there are no binary packages for vlc, xine (and based apps) and so on..
[18:07] <Gnea> 64bit flash with chrome doesn't like more than one youtube video playing at a time here either
[18:07] <andai> ActionParsnip: I'm watching tsunami footage from japan
[18:07] <dgtl> MeanEYE, i already got x-swat in my apt sources-list
[18:07] <andai> ActionParsnip: Basically opening a bunch of videos looking for the good ones
[18:07] <vlaar> ActionParsnip then i guess you're one of the lucky guys
[18:07] <dgtl> MeanEYE, there is nothing
[18:07] <ActionParsnip> andai: news travels slow huh
[18:07] <reval> my problem is with 64 bit flash and firefox, but I think it is relevant in that it helps narrow things down
[18:07] <Gnea> dgtl: no binary packages for vlc? since when?
[18:07] <manukalibur> there aint much information on the web about sisusbvga
[18:07] <andai> ActionParsnip: Yeah i slept for like 15 hours today. I watched it yesterday too
[18:07] <rigved> manukalibur: maybe the kernel module is not available in the place where modprobe looks for kernel modules. use insmod
[18:07] <dgtl> Gnea, with vdpau support, please check context
[18:07] <ActionParsnip> vlaar: I just know nice tweaks to make it nice, plus all my hardware is purposefully 100%linux compatible
[18:08] <Gnea> reval: I gave up on firefox, but the problem seems to be specifically with flash
[18:08] <reval> Gnea yeah, that's what I was aiming at saying, hehe
[18:08] <Gnea> dgtl: offense taken at your suggestion that I did not.
[18:08] <manukalibur> thanks rigved, I tried insmod, but dont know how
[18:08] <metrix> I would like to allow the same login/password to work across multiple ubuntu machines.. how would I go about this?
[18:08] <Gnea> reval: :)
[18:08] <ActionParsnip> andai: I see, have you tried other browsers?
[18:08] <manukalibur> insmod: can't read 'sisusbvga': No such file or directory
[18:08] <andai> Yup, firefox, same thing
[18:08] <andai> I tried firefox in wine but that just crashes everything :D
[18:08] <mrdeb> andai: use a newer flash
[18:09] <manukalibur> also tried : insmod /lib/modules/2.6.35-25-generic/kernel/drivers/usb/misc/sisusbvga/sisusbvga.ko
[18:09] <bullgard> llutz: Installing the DEB program package »sysklogd« would install the daemons sysklogd and klogd and apparently deinstall rsyslogd. What is the advantage of such an endeavour?
[18:09] <rigved> manukalibur: go to the folder where you have the kernel module. then in the terminal, type - sudo insmod filename.ko
[18:09] <ActionParsnip> andai: tried opera or midori or arora?
[18:09] <reval> Andai any idea if gnash would solve your problem?
[18:09] <llutz> bullgard: i don't see any advantage, imho rsyslogd is much user-friendlier and does a good job
[18:09] <andai> ActionParsnip (apt-get install) xD
[18:10] <ActionParsnip> andai: or lightspark
[18:10] <ActionParsnip> andai: what do you mean?
[18:10] <reval> !lightspark
[18:10] <reval> aww =(
[18:10] <dgtl> things like that are a hell of a reason why ppl dont wanna use linux, no vdpau support, no possibility to play 1080{i,p} content without going through a lot of pain
[18:10] <ActionParsnip> andai: http://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/2010/08/open-source-flash-alternative-lightspark-final-released/
[18:10] <bullgard> llutz: Ah! Thank you very much for your judgement.
[18:10] <manukalibur> insmod: error inserting 'sisusbvga.ko': -1 Invalid module format
[18:10] <luist> what do you guys understand with a business card that is written in one side: "this card is off-topic"?
[18:10] <andai> ActionParsnip: Oh hey it works in Opera
[18:10] <manukalibur> from within the directory
[18:10] <ActionParsnip> dgtl: never had an issue with it here
[18:11] <ActionParsnip> andai: then thats cool :)
[18:11] <llutz> bullgard: syslogd/klogd are much older and were used in most distros over years. thats why most howtos/docs refer to it
[18:11] <andai> ty
[18:11] <dgtl> ActionParsnip, try playing 1080i content with kaffeine, and you will have an issue
[18:11] <dgtl> :-)
[18:11] <phoenixsampras> does ubuntu comes with mongodb?
[18:11] <bullgard> llutz: I see.
[18:11] <ActionParsnip> dgtl: i use lxde with gnome-mplayer and its fine
[18:11] <dgtl> ActionParsnip, try playing 1080p content with vlc under ubuntu 10.10, then you will have further issues
[18:12] <dgtl> ActionParsnip, this list goes on and on and..
[18:12] <tzaeru> uh. I hope this isn't asking for a war: but anyone got IDE suggestions? I really like CodeLite, but for example I can't open half a thousand files at a time in different subdirectories.
[18:12] <tzaeru> and frankly big project managing is a small hell with it
[18:12] <ActionParsnip> dgtl: tried mplayer (smplayer in kde, gnome-mplayerin gnome)
[18:12] <ActionParsnip> !ide | tzaeru
[18:12] <joelixny> Does someone here have experience with grub?
[18:12] <tzaeru> ActionParsnip, but I asked suggestions, not list
[18:12] <ActionParsnip> !poll | tzaeru
[18:13] <llutz> !info syslog-ng | bullgard to make the confusion complete, this also exists :)
[18:13] <tzaeru> ActionParsnip, and I asked exactly preferences :>
[18:13] <ActionParsnip> tzaeru: try a few, see which you like
[18:13] <dgtl> ActionParsnip, then you might have a 'big' cpu, because your cpu will have to decode
[18:13] <Gnea> dgtl: FWIW, 10.10 just plain sucks when it comes to certain things, vdpau being one of them.... you could go back to 10.04 or hope that 11.04 has it working right... #ubuntu+1 might be of some help
[18:13] <tzaeru> oh well
[18:13] <tzaeru> yeah
[18:13] <mrdeb> dgtl: there are certain realities you ahve to face with respect to driver support for various operatin systems
[18:13] <ActionParsnip> dgtl: 3000 AM2 semperon with 2Gb RAM
[18:14] <ActionParsnip> dgtl: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1037625   sounds like you are using default configs
[18:14] <Gnea> ActionParsnip: I wish Unity didn't suck so bad, there are people that are trying to make an honest attempt at rolling it out in some production scenarios and it's just not very user-friendly
[18:14] <dgtl> ActionParsnip, and you can play real 1080p content without any problem?
[18:14] <ActionParsnip> dgtl: have you looked in settings for your players and tweaked?
[18:15] <manukalibur> rigved: can you help me further or is there just no answer?
[18:15] <jgcampbell300> The program 'samba' is currently not installed.  You can install it by typing:
[18:15] <jgcampbell300> sudo apt-get install samba4
[18:15] <jgcampbell300>  that is what it says when i type in samba
[18:15] <ActionParsnip> dgtl: as far as I can tell, I've plaed a tone of video on it witout issue. I'm bound to have played some at one time
[18:15] <acicula> real 1080p content is moot, as its dependent on the scene how much resources are needed for rendering
[18:15] <dgtl> mrdeb, sorry sir, ubuntu 10.10 is out for a while, there is no reason for not supporting 10.10 while every older version is able to use vdpau
[18:15] <Gnea> jgcampbell300: why are you telling us this? why don't you just do what it suggests?
[18:15] <reval> tzaeru may be a bit late but I really like just using vim. It's got some great features, and amazing plugins from vim.org
[18:15] <mrdeb> dgtl: so 10.04 does not have this issue?
[18:15] <ActionParsnip> Gnea: i'm getting used to it but purely for support means
[18:15] <rigved> manukalibur: does this kernel module output anything to the logs?
[18:15] <jgcampbell300> Gnea, becouse i just installed it
[18:16] <mrdeb> why dont you install the deb for it
[18:16] <Gnea> jgcampbell300: okay, so what's the problem?
[18:16] <dgtl> mrdeb, no, it does not have this issue, cause one can use the nvidia ppa for vdpau enabled packages
[18:16] <tzaeru> reval, yeah well, I'm not big of terminal based editors due to their steep learning curve :P
[18:16] <manukalibur> rigved: I dont know which log to look at
[18:16] <ActionParsnip> dgtl: then use 10.04, its supported way after Maverick support ends, and some of natty too

[18:17] <DKDude36> hey ubuntu peoplez i need some help
[18:17] <jgcampbell300> gnea, well i cant get a compleat install of samba to happen again ... i had samba runing but decided i need to remove becouse i made a mess of things so i sudo apt-get purge samba ... now when i try to install i is not even droping files in /etc/samba/
[18:17] <ActionParsnip> DKDude36: ask away
[18:17] <dgtl> ActionParsnip, never, cause this would mean that i have to reinstall and configure a whole new system, that is no alternative, never
[18:17] <DKDude36> DAMN 1500 MEMBERS!
[18:17] <ActionParsnip> dgtl: well you have your choices
[18:17] <phoenixsampras> who is superior, Perl or Python?
[18:17] <dgtl> ActionParsnip, that is no choice at all
[18:18] <acicula> DKDude36: try describing your problem
[18:18] <DKDude36> well ya so anyways, i;ve tried to duel boot a fe times on my imac
[18:18] <reval> tzaeru I've gotta say, I had trouble with visual studio when I tried it due to figuring out even enough options to make a program. I'm by far not professional, but the flexibility involved with vim combined with a disciplined methodology beats out any ui I have seen with the exception of xcode for it's newer autocorrecting features.
[18:18] <manukalibur> rigved: kernel: [  450.867179] usbcorsisusbe: registered new interface driver
[18:18] <DKDude36> but i always get a symbol on the bottom of the screen
[18:18] <erUSUL> !best | phoenixsampras
[18:18] <rigved> manukalibur: in the terminal - tail -f /var/log/messages and in another terminal - tail -f /var/log/kern.log After this, open another terminal and try the modprobe and insmod commands again and check if anything gets logged to the logs
[18:18] <DKDude36> tjat looks like a chip = a person
[18:18] <dgtl> ActionParsnip, do you know a tv application such like kaffeine for ubuntu 10.10 which is able to use vdpau and therefore can handle 1080i content?
[18:18] <Gnea> jgcampbell300: what version of ubuntu is that?
[18:18] <ActionParsnip> phoenixsampras: both and neither
[18:18] <acicula> dgtl: PPA's are not available for whatever revision its maintainer chooses to release them. Either match the release they package for or you will have to package the software yourself
[18:18] <dgtl> does anybody in here know?
[18:18] <jgcampbell300> gnea, 10.10
[18:18] <DKDude36> and then the livedvd whirrs for about 10 mins and then comp shuts off
[18:18] <acicula>  -not
[18:18] <erUSUL> phoenixsampras: python is said to be easier and is used heavily in ubuntu though
[18:19] <phoenixsampras> ActionParsnip: should i learn C++ , python or perl?
[18:19] <reval> tzaeru Whatever you choose is obviously up to you, but I'd urge you to find a good resource on vim and just play around with it.
[18:19] <dgtl> acicula, thanks for hint, but i already knew that
[18:19] <ActionParsnip> dgtl: I always use gnome-mplayer under lxde and i've never had an issue but its a case of !wfm
[18:19] <tzaeru> reval, if I know vim commands from my backbone yeah, might be true. but I already have dyslexia and learning difficulties, trying to keep in my mind any key commands without days and days of learning doesn't work
[18:19] <tzaeru> *know=knew
[18:19] <ActionParsnip> phoenixsampras: whichever suits your needs
[18:19] <llutz> phoenixsampras: to do what?
[18:19] <phoenixsampras> erUSUL: i see, sounds like i should learn pythin
[18:19] <douglarret> Can someone please help... things are going from bad to worse... I cannot boot ubuntu 10.10 cd on system I have installed 2 instances of 10.10 on previously -> the only difference between then and now is upgraded video card then was nvidia 6200 now is nvidia 220
[18:19] <tzaeru> on top of that it's handy to see names of directories and files with projects of +2 000 files :)
[18:19] <phoenixsampras> to make standalone application appliances
[18:19] <ActionParsnip> DKDude36: so you are booting livecd / usb?
[18:20] <dgtl> ActionParsnip, what means 'wfm'?

[18:20] <ActionParsnip> dgtl: works forme
[18:20] <mrdeb> dgtl: why did you upgrde to 10.10
[18:20] <dgtl> ActionParsnip, i see
[18:20] <vlaar> erUSURL that's not really an argument. C is heavily used too
[18:20] <ActionParsnip> DKDude36: ok, did you MD5 test the ISO you downloaded?
[18:20] <douglarret> How can I install ubuntu on machine with newer/incompatible video card?
[18:20] <DKDude36> ActionParsnip: i couldnt find the md5 on the site
[18:20] <reval> tzaeru hey fair enough, my goal isn't to push you into discomfort, it was just to give my opinion on the question.
[18:20] <ActionParsnip> !hashes | DKDude36
[18:20] <dgtl> mrdeb, i havent, i have just installed the newest version
[18:21] <DKDude36> thansk ActionParsnip
[18:21] <dgtl> mrdeb, that was 10.10 when i decided to use ubuntu
[18:21] <mrdeb> dgtl: well, there must be a solution

[18:21] <manukalibur> Mar 12 19:20:41 ooc-desktop sudo: pam_sm_authenticate: username = [ooc]
[18:21] <marlow59> why bash doesn't find cd when running sudo cd [path ] ?
[18:21] <tzaeru> reval, yah, I don't mind.
[18:21] <reval> douglarret have you tried virtualization? You can install it within windows through virtualbox or vmware
[18:21] <dgtl> mrdeb, i really hope so, but i cannot see any at the moment ;>
[18:21] <manukalibur> ok sorry
[18:21] <marlow59> why bash doesn't find cd when running sudo cd [path ] ?
[18:21] <mrdeb> just keep looking
[18:21] <douglarret> All I get is pattern of one inch black and white squares when I boot 10.10 install disc - any suggestion?
[18:21] <dgtl> mrdeb, i will
[18:21] <numberto> Ubuntu 10.10 -  cannot change desktop folder icons. They are grey look like if they are from 1998.  When I change the them it kinda changes the pannels but not the icons.
[18:22] <rigved> manukalibur: is that what you were expecting? to insert a new driver in the kernel?
[18:22] <kevdog> marlow59: what does mount say?
[18:22] <douglarret> reval I dont use windows
[18:22] <douglarret> not installed
[18:22] <reval> douglarret there is a text based install, I'll find it in a second
[18:22] <manukalibur> rigved: I dont really know, what I'm doing, just trying to get the usb2vga adapter working
[18:22] <douglarret>  reval thanks for your help
[18:22] <acicula> mrdeb: do you mean a media player or a program for a tv tuner, mplayer and the gstreamer backend(used by kaffeine/totem) both can use vdpau
[18:22] <manukalibur> rigved: got this from the rare information on the web
[18:23] <DKDude36> ActionParsnip: srry it took so long ya md5 matches
[18:23] <awanti> I have 1 LDAP server and 20 clients and os is Ubuntu 10.04. Here every one having romaing profile. Now what i want is I want to restrict 3 pcs being login by other users and that 3 pc users can't login to other 17 pc...
[18:24] <rigved> manukalibur: and is the usb2vga interface working?
[18:24] <rigved> manukalibur: now after you have inserted the driver?
[18:24] <kreantos> hey guys
[18:24] <acicula> err mrdeb that was meant for dgtl
[18:24] <manukalibur> rigved: no it's not working, only works under windows, even in virtualbox
[18:24] <vooze> Haha, talking to my stupid mate, and he says no way your computer kan take a 90/90mbit line (fiber) :D haha
[18:25] <galaxyAbstractor> ugh
[18:25] <farhan> Farhan
[18:25] <DKDude36> so is there no way to dual boot on a new imac/
[18:25] <manukalibur> rigved: meaning hardware is working
[18:25] <galaxyAbstractor> what is the easiest way to restore ubuntu like it was when it was first installed?
[18:25] <erUSUL> galaxyAbstractor: doing a clean install
[18:25] <kreantos> does one of you have an idea (or the same problem) why nm-applet / network-manager some times stop working and i have to restart my notebook to reconnect to the wlan?
[18:25] <reval> douglarret here is a link to the minimal installer, there is also an alternate install option that is also text based (I couldn't find it time is a factor), try this https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/MinimalCD
[18:26] <manukalibur> rigved: xorg log: 	Information	[    22.337] (WW) Falling back to old probe method for sisusb
[18:26] <yuzodo> kreantos, YES! i thought i was the only one but apparently not!
[18:26] <dgtl> acicula, i mean both, a mediaplayer would be okay for me, it is at least 'anything'
[18:26] <marlow59> why bash doesn't find cd when running sudo cd [path ] ?
[18:26] <erUSUL> !alternate
[18:26] <erUSUL> !minimal
[18:26] <tzaeru> apparently no IDE supports adding full directories to project.. >_>
[18:26] <tzaeru> geez.
[18:26] <dgtl> acicula, they cannot use vdpau under ubuntu 10.10
[18:26] <kreantos> yuzodo: thinkpad?
[18:26] <marlow59> why bash doesn't find cd when running sudo cd [path ] ?
[18:26] <yuzodo> kreantos, a dell
[18:26] <erUSUL> marlow59: cd is not a command
[18:26] <LtHummus> Can someone help me diagnose my lirc issues?  I had it working in 10.04, but my remote control is unresponsive in 10.10.
[18:26] <dgtl> acicula, because there are no packages which are coming with vdpau support enabled
[18:26] <virusking> koi mera hindi bhai hai ?
[18:26] <kreantos> yuzodo: do you have a solution for this?
[18:26] <erUSUL> marlow59: cd is a internal shell order
[18:26] <yuzodo> kreantos, using the global menu?
[18:27] <marlow59> erUSUL: and what is it?
[18:27] <erUSUL> marlow59: what are you trying to do ?
[18:27] <kreantos> yuzodo: global menu?
[18:27] <yuzodo> kreantos, to have the menus in the top panel
[18:27] <numpy> tzaeru, I use NetBeans, and you can add directories, Eclipse, and the spin off Aptana does the same..
[18:27] <DKDude36> so nobody can help me? no ubuntu for imac?
[18:27] <tohuw> How do I make an init.d script I made not detach the session to run it?
[18:28] <marlow59> erUSUL: just get into some directories without using su, there's no way to use temporar priviledges to run cd ?
[18:28] <dgtl> if you want for example kaffeine with vdpau support, you will have to compile xinelib and some other stuff with vdpau support, after that you will have to compile kaffeine against that vdpau-enabled xinelib
[18:28] <dgtl> and so on
[18:28] <dgtl> that is a pain
[18:28] <tzaeru> numpy, last I tried eclipse it was still painfully laggy and isn't netbeans java only?
[18:28] <dgtl> a huge pain
[18:28] <kreantos> yuzodo: do you mean the context-menu of nm-applet?
[18:28] <FloodBot3> dgtl: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
[18:28] <erUSUL> !rootshell | marlow59
[18:28] <ActionParsnip> DKDude36: ok when the disk starts to boot, press SPACE and test the CD for defects as well as test RAM
[18:28] <dgtl> omg FloodBot? lol
[18:28] <acicula> dgtl: ah like so, what about this PPA ? https://launchpad.net/~nvidia-vdpau/+archive/cutting-edge-multimedia
[18:28] <yuzodo> kreantos, no, nevermind :P, I have no idea to fix it then sorry ><
[18:28] <numpy> NetBeans is NOT a Java only IDE, it supports all but COBAL and FORTRAN afaik :-) its huge.
[18:28] <marlow59> erUSUL: sudo su is a variant?
[18:28] <DKDude36> ActionParsnip: what would u classify as disk booting?
[18:29] <vlaar> tzaeru netbeans is awfully slow too.
[18:29] <erUSUL> marlow59: yes
[18:29] <ActionParsnip> dgtl: log a bug then
[18:29] <Katronix> is there any reason not to have your mysql root password the same as the root user password?
[18:29] <douglarret> reval thanks
[18:29] <marlow59> erUSUL: not advisable ?
[18:29] <kreantos> yuzodo: ok ;) so you have to reboot also every time?
[18:29] <dgtl> acicula, no packages for 10.10, not the needed packages (libxine) for example in the cutting edge repo
[18:29] <erUSUL> marlow59: sudo -i is preferable
[18:29] <ActionParsnip> DKDude36: when the DVD starts to boot, you should see a stickman with a keyboard. Press SPACE there
[18:29] <reval> douglarret I might also check out the options on the regular install to see about a text based from that
[18:29] <marlow59> erUSUL: why?
[18:29] <DKDude36> ActionParsnip: ya thats exaclty what i'm seeing lemie try that
[18:29] <manukalibur> rigved: I have to leave, thanks for your help
[18:30] <numpy> vlaar, tzaeru: I personally don't have performance issues with it, but results may vary.
[18:30] <acicula> dgtl: yeah i just saw that too, odd that its not repackaged
[18:30] <DKDude36> and should i use bootcamp or disk utility to partition? or does it matter?
[18:30] <ActionParsnip> DKDude36: you should test RAM and CD from there
[18:30] <yuzodo> kreantos, i logged out and back in, but i managed to fix it, but that won't work for you, make sur eyou have all the latest updates
[18:30] <dgtl> acicula, yes...
[18:30] <tohuw> Katronix: always. Anytime you have the same password for multiple critical services, you make the system that much easier to compromise. Most especially if you have MySQL open to the world (for which you deserve to be slapped anyway).
[18:30] <Da|Mummy> is there a way to overclock within ubuntu? w/o having to do it from bios?
[18:30] <erUSUL> marlow59: it uses the users env; no good
[18:30] <marlow59> ah i see
[18:30] <erUSUL> Da|Mummy: do not think so
[18:30] <kreantos> yuzodo: ok, i have already the latest updates
[18:30] <DKDude36> thank you so much ActionParsnip lemmie partition reboot and try it
[18:30] <tohuw> Da|Mummy: overclocking happens below the OS level. You overclock from your BIOS, not your operating system.
[18:31] <marlow59> erUSUL:  but why other commands such as ls coud be run with sudo, and not cd? I don't get it
[18:31] <reval> Katronix it is also a bad practice to really have mysql enabled for the root account. having it's own separate account allows people to utilize the mysql capability without having too much power over the system.
[18:31] <erUSUL> marlow59: becouse cd is *not* a command. ls is a command but cd is not
[18:31] <dgtl> ActionParsnip, i see no sense in doing so, cause there is obviously no critical mass on my side, which would mean that the bug woul be ignored
[18:31] <mrdeb> hmm
[18:31] <DKDude36> one last question do i partition as free space or fat or what?
[18:31] <erUSUL> marlow59: cd is an internal shell thing...
[18:32] <marlow59> erUSUL: okay, I'm gonna search info about cd. Thanks
[18:32] <vlaar> numpy, tzaeru in big projects using member menu to jump to certain functions takes ages on a fresh install
[18:32] <acicula> dgtl: well from what i can glance right now vdpau is included because of license disagreements, so if you want to have it working reliably sticking with repackaged binaries for lts versions is your best bet
[18:32] <dgtl> ActionParsnip, been there, done that before with some other stuff, bug hangs there for more than half a year now, getting 'autoclosed', lol no thx
[18:32] <tohuw> How do I make an init.d script I made not detach the session to run it? I just want it to kick off and return me to my session... I have an exit 0 at the end of the script.
[18:32] <yuzodo> kreantos, ok, sorry then >< maybe someone else knows
[18:32] <acicula> dgtl: as it does not seem that vdpau will be included in the official release soon
[18:32] <qanadin> I am having issues installing drivers for Asus N13 usb dongle, with error, make: *** [LINUX] Error 2
[18:32] <ActionParsnip> dgtl: shame
[18:32] <DKDude36> ok i'll go free space bi
[18:32] <dgtl> ActionParsnip, :>
[18:32] <dgtl> can you tell...
[18:32] <kreantos> yuzodo: np, thank you
[18:32] <erUSUL> tohuw: your question makes little sense. what does that script do ?
[18:32] <LtHummus> Can someone help me diagnose my lirc issues?  I had it working in 10.04, but my remote control is unresponsive in 10.10.
[18:33] <qanadin> anybody know how to fix this?
[18:33] <yuzodo> :)
[18:33] <erUSUL> qanadin: you shouldn't need to install new drivers
[18:33] <phoenixsampras> what about ruby, says is slower than java?
[18:33] <qanadin> erUSUL well it doesn't see the USB dongle
[18:33] <erUSUL> qanadin: try this first « sudo apt-get install linux-backports-modules-wireless-$(lsb_release -cs)-generic »
[18:33] <erUSUL> qanadin: reboot
[18:34] <dgtl> acicula, thanks for your opinion, yes, it seems going back to LTS is the only option (which is no option for me)
[18:34] <reval> would a backport hely with dgtl's problem?

[18:35] <douglarret> Wow...
[18:35] <qanadin> erUSUL I will give it a try thanks
[18:35] <erUSUL> marlow59: yes but there is a difference between internal shell commands like cd; for; done; if; set; shopt etc... and external commands that come in binaries outside bash's
[18:35] <tohuw> erUSUL: when I issue "sudo /etc/init.d/smuxi-server start", I get "Detaching to start /usr/bin/smuxi-server...done." and I can't do anything in that session until I break with Ctrl+C.
[18:36] <acicula> dgtl: im curious though why vdpau support isnt made part of the restricted-extras package like any other codec
[18:36] <Vampire0> Hey guys, I have a kind of problem. I boot Ubuntu and it continues booting though one of my partitions is fscked. I don't want to continue booting as long as the fsck is running as my data are on that drive. Can I somehow change this behaviour?
[18:36] <bittyx-laptop> man, i haven't updated ubuntu in a while (running 10.10 from a fresh install) - i've got like 300mb of updates available for download. i'm really scared to do it all at once, since, chances are, something's gonna stop working. and there are just so many updates that 1 by 1 isn't feasible. is there any way to revert to my current system state if something goes wrong?
[18:36] <marlow59> erUSUL: ok, so bash can't find internal commands if run with sudo?
[18:36] <Dr_Willis> marlow59:  it can.
[18:36] <erUSUL> marlow59: no; it is sudo the one that can not find a cd binary becouse there is none
[18:36] <LtHummus> Can someone help me diagnose my lirc issues?  I had it working in 10.04, but my remote control is unresponsive in 10.10.  The USB reciever is definetly there as lsusb sees it.  I've tried reinstalling/reconfiguring lirc to no avail.  irw shows nothing when i press buttons (and the little LED on the reciever lights up to indicate that it sees my presses)

[18:38] <GeekyAdam> hi all. im making a new website for a client. is it better to create a new godaddy account for my client's webiste(s), or should i just register them under my godaddy account? just wondering which is easier in the long run?
[18:38] <numpy>  tzaeru vlaar, im not saying its the best, but it does support source imports to existing projects, as do Eclipse and a few others that use SCM. Heck I think most higher level ide's do, it just may not be apparent i.e. calling it source import etc.
[18:38] <dougl> rajvi, just to do some work use a shell
[18:38] <acicula> bittyx-laptop: not really, but updating is fairly safe in my experience
[18:38] <aroman> hi, does anyone know of a way to execute a script after ubiquity finishes the install? Thanks ;)
[18:38] <acicula> GeekyAdam: maybe ask godaddy support?

[18:41] <awanti> I want to restrict users to changes in their pc (like wallpaper changes , moving icons, deleting short cuts from desktop etc)
[18:42] <ania> Alexander
[18:42] <vlaar> iamaregee2: you could search in synaptic or in aptitude if you prefer term
[18:42] <bittyx-laptop> thanks! didn't know that either (though i could have guessed really). won't spam no more, bye and thanks for the help!
[18:44] <jquiterio> hi
[18:44] <tzaeru> random question of curiousity, does it generally have much of a speed impact whether OS is 32bit or 64bit? I have 64bit CPU but 32bit Ubuntu.
[18:44] <jquiterio> i wont help
[18:44] <jquiterio> my keyboard do not work
[18:44] <jquiterio> some body can help me ?
[18:44] <reval> tzaeru it matters a bit but it goes both ways, some apps are faster 64 bit some are faster 32, and 32 seems a bit more developed and stable (flash for example)
[18:44] <mrdeb> tzaeru: you will notice more responsiveness and faster performance in media and encoding. however, it's no substantial in most cases for common programs
[18:45] <tohuw> erUSUL: I found the problem... the debug (verbose) output for smuxi-server is -d, not -v. So the script was choking on an invalid param
[18:45] <mrdeb> the bigthing is flash
[18:45] <threexk> hello.  X in Ubuntu is locked up for me and I cannot do anything but move the mouse cursor.  Is there any way I can regain control of my system?
[18:45] <erUSUL> tohuw: good to hear
[18:45] <jquiterio> after upgrade ubuntu screem stilled command line stile...
[18:46] <qanadin> erUSUL:  Thanks fro the help, downloading that package and a reboot solved the problem.
[18:46] <erUSUL> qanadin: no problem
[18:46] <jquiterio> then... i was installed ubuntu-desktop... and... up this time... keyboard stop
[18:46] <jgcampbell300> hmm, what was the cli to del dir structur
[18:46] <dougl> how can I back up my 10.10 install from sda and restore it to my sdc?
[18:47] <acicula> dgtl: did you try mplayer for vdpau support?
[18:47] <llutz> jgcampbell300: rm -r
[18:47] <jgcampbell300> nm i found it
[18:47] <jgcampbell300> llutz, thanks
[18:47] <Dextroid> My computer got stuck during updates and had to be shut down. I've done an apt-get upgrade now but still it won't boot after CHECKING BATTERY STATE OK. Any ideas?
[18:48] <llua> setting a "xset m" setting should go into ".Xresources" or my ".xinitrc" to set it every login?
[18:48] <Frenk> Hey, my syslog got 300MB because of netfilter - how do i "filter" netfilter?
[18:48] <erUSUL> Dextroid: run « sudo dpkg --configure -a » ?
[18:49] <Dext-roid> My computer got stuck during updates and had to be shut down. I've done an apt-get upgrade now but still it won't boot after CHECKING BATTERY STATE OK. Any ideas? Sorry got disconnected.
[18:49] <UnNoobUbuntu> Hello everyone
[18:49] <UnNoobUbuntu> How to customize my screen login ?
[18:50] <UnNoobUbuntu> i'm using ubuntu 10.10
[18:50] <UnNoobUbuntu> Because I downloaded a GDM THEME from gnome-look but I can't install it
[18:50] <mrdeb> UnNoobUbuntu: google "change gdm ubuntu 10.10"
[18:50] <reval> Frenk: is there anything in particular you are looking for within netfilter?
[18:50] <erUSUL> Frenk: custom iptables rules? ufw?
[18:51] <exodus_ms> using 10.04 LTS (64 bit system) upgraded yesterday and chromium and firefox require flash plugin, i have the old one avail but how can I install the new plugin?
[18:51] <UnNoobUbuntu> mrdeb: I'm looking for thanks
[18:51] <hseal12> Hey guys, I'm dual booting 10.10 and vista, and I'm trying to delete the vista partition with gmod so I can use the memory. I've been following instructions I found on the net, but I'm running into some problems.
[18:51] <hseal12> I'll link to the instructions I'm using...
[18:51] <hseal12> http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/linux-newbie-8/how-can-i-remove-vista-from-a-ubuntu-vista-dual-boot-648401/
[18:52] <reval> Frenk if the file is getting to be too big, you could rename the log file to something like "etc.log.old" and make a new log file, and if you want specific things, such as a certain i.p. you can use grep!
[18:52] <Dext-roid> Can anyone help me please? I'm stuck on my phone because of a non booting computer :(
[18:52] <hseal12> When I try to enter the code "sudo chmod -R username.username /home/username/Data"
[18:52] <awanti> I want to restrict users to changes in their pc (like wallpaper changes , moving icons, deleting short cuts from desktop etc)
[18:52] <hseal12> it says "invalide mode:"
[18:52] <erUSUL> Dext-roid: not even recovery mode will boot?
[18:52] <Frenk> reval: 300 mb after 24 hours ;)
[18:52] <Dext-roid> ErUsul; I'm in recovery mode in netroot.
[18:53] <awanti> plz. give me solution for this plz.
[18:53] <erUSUL> hseal12: is chown not chmod
[18:53] <erichynds> if i right click on an image and set it as the wallpaper, where does ubuntu store the images?
[18:53] <Frenk> erUSUL yes, -A INPUT -j LOG and -A FORWARD -j LOG
[18:53] <llutz> Frenk: why did you enable logging if you don't want logs?
[18:53] <dougl> is there an installer I can run in ubuntu 10.10 to install a ubuntu system on sdc ?
[18:54] <erUSUL> awanti: http://www.linux.com/archive/feed/62060 http://tombuntu.com/index.php/2008/05/27/how-to-lock-down-gnome/
[18:54] <reval> Frenk: I'm leaning towards the iptables suggestion that someone else mentioned, but is there a certain thing that you know of inside these logs still that you want to get rid of?
[18:54] <alecbenzer> is there a way to grab all packages from a ppa that are updates to current packages? (want to try out gnome3, I added the ppa but running apt-get upgrade doesn't change anything)
[18:54] <hseal12> Thanks, erUSUL, that worked.
[18:54] <erUSUL> awanti: search google for "gnome lockdown" or "gnome kiosk mode"
[18:54] <dougl> err -> is there an installer I can run in ubuntu 10.10 installed on sda to install a ubuntu system on sdc ?
[18:54] <Frenk> llua: its for psad
[18:54] <reval> alecbenzer did you also do sudo apt-get update?
[18:54] <awanti> ok
[18:55] <exodus_ms> dropped offline for a moment, i dont want to repost and clutter, anyone know where i can find new 64bit flash plugin
[18:55] <erUSUL> Frenk: so you are complaining because the system is logging what you asked it to log ?
[18:55] <llua> @Frenk, ?
[18:56] <Frenk> erUSUL: yes. the time-frame the entries should be stored is like ... 5 minutes ... not the whole day =D
[18:56] <jiltdil> how to open pdf file from terminal?
[18:56] <erUSUL> Frenk: you can make rsyslog log to a different file see /etc/rsyslog.d/20-ufw.conf
[18:56]  * dougl install ubuntu /dev/sdc
[18:56] <Frenk> reval: http://paste.debian.net/110455/ this is getting ennozing
[18:56] <erUSUL> Frenk: and then configure logrotate to keep only what you want
[18:57] <exodus_ms> jiltdil, are you wanting to read the pdf file in the terminal or just open it from the command line?
[18:57] <Dext-roid> ErUSUL: I'm in netroot in recovery mode. In shell now with networking up.
[18:57] <reval> Frenk, change your degree of concern drastically in one direction, I'm on the case
[18:57] <erUSUL> Frenk: or use iptables ULOG
[18:57] <itaylor57> exodus_ms: try this link http://labs.adobe.com/technologies/flashplayer10/square/
[18:57] <jiltdil> exodus_ms: both
[18:57] <alecbenzer> reval:  I hadn't, but I just did and apt-get upgrade still doesn't work
[18:57] <erUSUL> Dext-roid: run « sudo --configure  -a && sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade »
[18:57] <stef> is there someone who can help me a little with softraid (raid1) please
[18:57] <exodus_ms> itaylor57, thank you, I saw that but its not final release and im weary of running into probs with developmental versions of flash
[18:57] <qanadin> anybody have a recommendation for a good VM software?
[18:58] <jiltdil> exodus_ms: means i want to open it via terminal and also i want to open it in terminal if possible?
[18:58] <alecbenzer> though I also tried manually apt-getting something thats in the gnome3 ppa and it said it was already at its newest version...so Im guessing something isn't configured right
[18:58] <erUSUL> !anyone | stef
[18:58] <erUSUL> !vbox > qanadin
[18:58] <itaylor57> exodus_ms: no good solution right now, I just avoid flash myself
[18:58] <Frenk> erUSUL: i think ill go with logrotate =)
[18:59] <exodus_ms> jiltdil, gpdf file.pdf or evince file.pdf depending on what your using, that will open the file from the command line
[18:59] <reval> alecbenzer if you've done an update, and an upgrade, but gnome has not changed, the only other thing I can think of is that gnome3 is a different package and simply must be installed.
[18:59] <stef> i have ubuntu dekstop 10.04 installed. i created a raid-array, it works, but i want it to auto mount and auto start the array on startup, but it doesn't work.
[18:59] <exodus_ms> itaylor57, cool, thanks for your help
[18:59] <qanadin> erESUL, does it support x64 at all?
[18:59] <jiltdil> exodus: thanx
[18:59] <erUSUL> qanadin: it does
[18:59] <erUSUL> !fstab | stef for automount see here
[19:00] <Dext-roid> ErUSUL: done. Nothing changed. Everything 0. I just ran an apt upgrade a while back.
[19:00] <qanadin> sweet
[19:00] <exodus_ms> jiltdil, i forget to ask if your using gnome or kde, for gnome you would use gpdf and for kde use kpdf
[19:00] <stef> ubottu: Thanks
[19:00] <erUSUL> stef: about autobuild in boot check /etc/mdadm/mdadm.conf ?
[19:00] <pheuter> How do i remove certain services from not automatically starting upon boot
[19:00] <erUSUL> stef: but it should just work afaik
[19:00] <hseal12> All right, so now I have a "data" file in my home folder. How do I use the memory for my other files?
[19:00] <jiltdil> exodus_ms:thanx
[19:01] <Dext-roid> ErUSUL: I just did X in shell and the screen turned black.
[19:01] <erUSUL> Dext-roid: do you have an older kernel in grub menu? to try if that boots?
[19:01] <Dext-roid> ErUSUL: I'm trying an old kernel now and same :(
[19:01] <bfri> can anyone help me put my network manager back on my panel
[19:02] <stef> ubottu: in fstab, i added this line     /dev/md0    /storage   /ext   defaults   0   0       so then last thing i have to do is auto start the disk-array ?
[19:02] <alecbenzer> reval: hm, well there doesn't seem to be any "gnome3" package, but it looks like apt can't see the ppa at all.
[19:02] <erUSUL> bfri: make sure you have a notification area on the panel. do alt + f2 and run nm-applet
[19:02] <edbian> bfri, It's in the 'notification area' applet
[19:02] <Frenk> Okay and one pretty dumb question - I had a VPS and every time I logged in, everything was colorful - even when I run vi or ls. Now on the new hosting everything is b/w ... I want color back in my life =D
[19:02] <stef> erUSUL: in fstab, i added this line     /dev/md0    /storage   /ext   defaults   0   0       so then last thing i have to do is auto start the disk-array ?
[19:02] <reval> alecbenzer then it may have not been added correctly or there may have been a typo.
[19:03] <erUSUL> Dext-roid: :( hard to know what is going on... do you have a custom /etc/X11/xorg.conf ? or use nvidia graphic card?
[19:03] <ccvvcc> Im trying to setup ssh keys and im failing.. I followed a guide and didn't succeeded
[19:03] <erUSUL> stef: should be ext4 not ext/ ?
[19:03] <Dext-roid> ErUSUL: :( its a hp dv6000 with an onboard nvidia card
[19:03] <Dr_Willis> Frenk:  ls --color (or other alias) and insdtall the full vim package.
[19:04] <erUSUL> Dext-roid: do you use the propietary driver? if so how did you installed it?
[19:04] <coz_> hey guys
[19:04] <Frenk> Dr_Willis: even my hostname was colorful - like user@hostname - thats why im curious
[19:04] <Dext-roid> ErUSUL: I had the nvidia utility install it for me when my system was fine.
[19:05] <stef> erUSUL: sorry, it's like you said, EXT4, when i reboot now, ubuntu says, could not mount device to /storage . that's because it's not started yes, so i only have to auto start the disk array (sorry for my english)
[19:05] <erUSUL> Dext-roid: the oe you download from nvidia's site?
[19:05] <doodoo> any idea when ATI catalyst driver will come to natty. I can't play games now as it is missing :(
[19:05] <erUSUL> stef: check /etc/mdadm/mdadm.conf ?
[19:05] <Dext-roid> ErUSUL: I just installed it with package management :/
[19:06] <mrdeb> is ATI stable on ubuntu? when i installed it before, there was corruption
[19:06] <adam__> hi
[19:06] <adam__> i have "Compression yes" in my sshd config file. How can i check it is actually compressing the data over ssh?
[19:07] <alberto> Hello
[19:07] <Dext-roid> Ughhh.....it just gets stuck at CHECKING BATTERY STATE....OK
[19:07] <adam__> @mrdeb ive had really bad experiences with ATI. So i moved to nVidia
[19:07] <reval> adam_ that's a really odd question. You can see how big the file is, and then through perhaps ifconfig or another means find how much data has gone over a fresh connection
[19:07] <bfri_> can anyone help me put the network manager back on my panel
[19:08] <bfri_> can anyone help me put the network manager back on my panel
[19:08] <bfri_> can anyone help me put the network manager back on my panel
[19:08] <stef> erUSUL: this is my mdadm.conf file http://pastebin.com/K5TW3bcQ
[19:09] <adam__> @reval yeah it is an odd question, maybe there was a tool that ive never heard of to check this. guess not.
[19:09] <jgcampbell300> can anyone tell me what to do about this ?? debconf: Perl may be unconfigured (Can't locate strict.pm in @INC (@INC contains: /etc/perl /usr/local/lib/perl/5.10.1 /usr/local/share/perl/5.10.1 /usr/lib/perl5 /usr/share/perl5 /usr/lib/perl/5.10 /usr/share/perl/5.10 /usr/local/lib/site_perl .) at (eval 1) line 2.
[19:09] <Dext-roid> ErUSUL: any possible way to get back into the system? :(
[19:09] <reval> adam_ I'm definitely not trying to close the question, I'm just saying that that is currently the only way I would know of
[19:09] <awanti> Can I able to install Ubuntu through LAN upto 400 pc one at a time
[19:09] <itaylor57> bfri_: did you try right click on the top panel and choose add to panel?
[19:09] <acicula> jgcampbell300: find whatever package provides strict.pm and install it
[19:09] <erUSUL> !automate
[19:10] <erUSUL> awanti: ^
[19:10] <alecbenzer> reval: pretty sure it's spelled correctly. I tried adding with apt-add-repository and the ubuntu software center, both seemed the same
[19:10] <erUSUL> Dext-roid: i am really at a lost here... doing some googling but nothing turns up
[19:10] <Dext-roid> :(
[19:10] <reval> alecbenzer are you using a particular guide to do this?
[19:10] <jgcampbell300> acicula, well thats kina the problem ... it was samba but i uninstalled and tryed to erase all of the directories it left behind so now im at a loss
[19:10] <reval> alecbenzer I'll give it a shot and see how far I get
[19:10] <erUSUL> stef: you may have to add the deffinition for your array ?
[19:11] <Dext-roid> Even failsafeX won't start
[19:11] <bfri_> can anyone help me put the network manager back on my panel
[19:12] <jgcampbell300> i think if i do apt-get source samba ... then apt-get build-dep samba ... would that put things back where it needs to be ?
[19:12] <alecbenzer> read about gnome3 here: http://blogs.gnome.org/rodrigo/2011/03/03/gnome3-on-ubuntu/
[19:12] <reval> brzi if you go to system > preferences > startup applications, do you see a network manager option there?  if so restarting may solve
[19:12] <jgcampbell300> acicula, accualy it hi another error dpkg-source: not found
[19:13] <reval> brzi if it is not there, this should help http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-527735.html
[19:13] <Dext-roid> How do I use less to display less output when I do apt-get --help ?
[19:14] <acicula> jgcampbell300: what directories did you delete?
[19:14] <adam__> @reval i nver thought of that method, i might try it later on. Reason i ask is cause, im tunneling connections from the iPad to my server running squid,privoxy and tor for anonymity and faster browsing. ANd it would be sweet to know if its actually compressing the data in the tunnel. Less bandwith and secure. Specially on public networks
[19:14] <jgcampbell300> basicly anything that had samba on it
[19:14] <bfri_> itaylor57, yes i did i dont see it
[19:14] <itaylor57> Dext-roid: apt-get --help | less
[19:14] <ChogyDan> bfri_: try: nm-applet --sm-disable
[19:14] <acicula> jgcampbell300: source just fetches source code packages and has no use in system package managment
[19:14] <stef> erUSUL: so this lines would make it works http://pastebin.com/XRBaV64Q (add to mdadm.conf)
[19:14] <reval> Dext-roid try this: cat apt-get --help | less
[19:15] <saud12> hi all
[19:15] <jgcampbell300> acicula, ok i did sudo find / -name samba -print and erased any directory that it listed
[19:15] <erUSUL> stef: probably. you can try easily...
[19:15] <bfri_> chogydan, where do i put that
[19:15] <Dext-roid> Thanks. Worked.
[19:15] <ChogyDan> bfri_: on a command line / terminal
[19:15] <stef> erUSUL: Thanks! it works! i searched days for this. Thanks
[19:15] <saud12> dear i have email for linux how can i open ? where shell i go to open ?
[19:15] <reval> adam_ as a side note you're the man lol, but that's all I've got still for ideas. I love compression but in practice stuff like this is elusive to me
[19:16] <erUSUL> stef: no problem
[19:16] <Vixxo> hi guys, how can I turn on a wifi card turned off by the hardware button ?
[19:16] <stef> erUSUL: Is there a way to test if my raid1 one, like unmount one hard drive or something ?
[19:16] <saud12> i do that
[19:16] <reval> afk a bit
[19:16] <Vixxo> I mean, from terminal
[19:16] <dougl> when does the next version of ubuntu come out? and is there a way to get a sneak peek at it now?
[19:16] <ChogyDan> !cli | bfri_
[19:16] <bfri_> chogydan, says couldnt initialize the d-bus manger
[19:17] <douglarret> yeah
[19:17] <jgcampbell300> acicula, wow i have things messed up now ... i think i have erased something that apt-get install needs
[19:17] <ChogyDan> bfri_: can you pastebin the error?
[19:17] <ChogyDan> !paste | bfri_
[19:18] <jgcampbell300> acicula, it seems like everything that fails is related to perl
[19:18] <adam__> @reval lol
[19:18] <acicula> jgcampbell300: yeah it seems you broke the package manager itself
[19:18] <cdtank> on Ubuntu 10.10 on a Thinkpad W510 with default graphics drivers shows weird brightness issues
[19:18] <Dext-roid> ErUSUL: any update? :( i
[19:18] <cdtank> few seconds after I log in screen goes pitch dark.
[19:18] <stef> Is there a way to test if my raid1 one, like unmount one hard drive or something ?
[19:18] <erUSUL> Dext-roid: nope sorry :(
[19:18] <jgcampbell300> acicula, hmm yep ... wonder how i could fix this
[19:19] <cdtank> more info here http://goo.gl/NJBch
[19:19] <acicula> jgcampbell300: reinstall is the shortest route
[19:19] <bfri_> chogydan http://pastebin.com/YGd2yvnd
[19:19] <jgcampbell300> acicula, the os ?
[19:19] <Dext-roid> ErUSUL: is there any possible way to fix the system now?
[19:19] <ChogyDan> bfri_: how about: sudo service networkmanager restart
[19:20] <acicula> jgcampbell300: yes
[19:20] <bfri_> it says unrecognized service
[19:20] <bfri_> chogydan it says unrecognized service
[19:21] <acicula> network-manager
[19:21] <jgcampbell300> acicula, ok thanks for the help
[19:21] <ActionParsnip> ChogyDan: bfri_: how about: sudo service networking restart
[19:21] <enterneo> if I don't have any nameserver on my resolv.conf, where would all of my dns queries goto?
[19:22] <bfri_> actionparship, "restar: unknown instance:"
[19:22] <s5fs> bfri_: try /etc/init.d/networking restart
[19:23] <s5fs> bfri_: gotta sudo it tho. also, type out /etc/init.d/network and then start hitting tab to see what scripts start with the word "network"
[19:23] <stef> Hi, i have RAID1, but when one hard drive is broken, my raid won't auto start anymore. Is there a way to auto start a raid-array even when there is only one hard drive ?
[19:23] <user1234> Hi. I am trying to copy files from ext4 on to ntfs drive and I get "The folder "UCZELNIA" cannot be handled because you do not have permissions to read it.". Help please.
[19:24] <ChogyDan> bfri_: yeah, it is network-manager.  btw, any idea how this happened?  Where you changing the panels at all?
[19:24] <s5fs> enterneo: I'm guessing nothing..?
[19:25] <Dext-roid> ErUSUL: you there? :(
[19:25] <ActionParsnip> bfri_: read the command I gave, then realise where you went wrong
[19:26] <Dext-roid> Is there anyway to restore my system? X is gone for me after an upgrade crash even though I did an upgrade in recovery mode.
[19:26] <s5fs> Dext-roid: why not just do a fresh install?
[19:27] <s5fs> Dext-roid: assuming you back up all your important stuff, it shouldn't be too painful.
[19:27] <dougl> why is all the 64 bit ubuntu for amd only?
[19:27] <Dext-roid> S5fs: will I lose my data? And can't I do it from shell?
[19:27] <skraps> does anyone know the core grub modules used when building a grub-image that is required by a ubuntu system
[19:27] <s5fs> Dext-roid: You'll need to back your data up to an external drive, or a file server, or something before you begin the reinstall.
[19:27] <itaylor57> dougl it is forall 64 niy
[19:27] <ChogyDan> dougl: its not just for amd, amd invented it
[19:27] <ivorensis> My friend can't get her 3G-connection working with 10.10. The 3G-capability is built-in, so there's no need for USB-stick. Is there a way to get it working?
[19:28] <bfri_> chogydan i just accidentally right clicked and removed it
[19:28] <milk> when launching an gui application from a console window, it keeps the console busy until the app is exited or ctrl-c is hit. is there anyway to avoid this restriction?
[19:28] <yuzodo> there isn't milk as the terminal hosts the app
[19:29] <ChogyDan> bfri_: try right clicking on the panel, and adding the notification area
[19:29] <dougl> itaylor57,  ChogyDan  so I should use for 64 bit intel install?
[19:29] <Jon--> How can I check the return code of the last run binary from Terminal?
[19:29] <chims> just use & at the end of the command
[19:29] <jgcampbell300> well i guess that gives me more time to play warcraft :)
[19:29] <s5fs> milk: nohup <command> &
[19:29] <itaylor57> dougl yep
[19:29] <yuzodo> my bad s5fs
[19:29] <ChogyDan> dougl: I would say use 32 bit if you are unsure
[19:29] <s5fs> yuzodo: no worries, we all learn job control today ;-)
[19:30] <yuzodo> xD
[19:30] <Jon--> How can I check the return code of the last run binary from Terminal? I may want to script this (bash) later. Just testing something right now.
[19:30] <Dext-roid> How do I check how big a directory is in shell?
[19:30] <itaylor57> Dext-roid: du -h
[19:30] <s5fs> Dext-roid: du -h
[19:30] <llutz> Jon--: $?
[19:30] <Jon--> Dext-roid: du -h --max-depth=x [useful option]
[19:30] <milk> s5fs; ty!
[19:30] <s5fs> yw
[19:30] <qanadin> erUSUL what would cause an error in creating the virtual disk
[19:31] <qanadin> saying VERR_FILE_TOO_BIG
[19:31] <stef> Hi, i have RAID1, but when one hard drive is broken, my raid won't auto start anymore. Is there a way to auto start a raid-array even when there is only one hard drive ?
[19:31] <qanadin> And it only does this when I am using a fixed storage, instead of variable
[19:32] <llutz> Jon--: http://tldp.org/LDP/abs/html/exitcodes.html
[19:32] <durando> what is the command to download the entire source tree from command line for ubuntu server
[19:32] <Jon--> llutz: I know what the exit code should be I just needed to know how to check it in a bash script.
[19:32] <milk> what chims noted, just putting the & at the end also works and the console goes straight onto a new line, where as nohup requires a ctrl-c still. what is the difference there?
[19:32] <Gavzorz> ahh
[19:32] <Dext-roid> is there any way to do a fresh install from shell?
[19:33] <Dext-roid> I do have networking
[19:33] <dgtl> acicula, yes, i did, i have tried mplayer with vdpau, tried it with 1080p (x264) content, and tried to play 1080i content via a dvb-c card and a channels.conf - both the same, the movie/stream hangs and slows down
[19:33] <dougl> Dext-roid, install from a shell running in 10.10?
[19:33] <milk> a-ha; http://hacktux.com/bash/ampersand
[19:33] <Dext-roid> Dougl: yes
[19:34] <llutz> Jon--: if [ $? = 0 ]  then do something else do something different fi
[19:34] <dougl> Dext-roid, that is what I was asking earlier and got no response
[19:34] <Dext-roid> Dougl: sorry I'm online from my phone its easy to skip messages :(
[19:35] <qanadin> anybody know much about VirtualBox OSE?
[19:35] <qanadin> I am having errors when trying to create a fixed hard drive
[19:35] <Dr_Willis> !vbox
[19:35] <itaylor57> Dext-roid dougl I believe you must install ubuntu from live CD or USB
[19:35] <dougl> I think there should be a installer that runs in current ubuntu version that installs the next version on another hard drive
[19:35] <ActionParsnip> qanadin: give us some details and we may be able to help
[19:35] <Dr_Willis> qanadin:  it has a rather large manual at its homepage..  what do you mean by 'fixed hard drive' ?
[19:35] <dougl> itaylor57, I think you are right
[19:35] <jgcampbell300> Dext-roid, i think it is possable but it would be a net boot thing and i dont think it would be practical unless you are deploying a large network
[19:35] <dougl> thanks
[19:36] <ActionParsnip> dougl: suggest it on http://brainstorm.ubuntu.com
[19:36] <Dr_Willis> dougl:  'debootstrap' can do that.
[19:36] <XOXO1> hello, I have a question. I got a laptop without a HDD, it currently runs on ubuntu live CD. this laptop has a memory card reader and I need to transfer the content of the memory card to another pc via local network. how can I share this memory card folder on my local network?
[19:36] <Dr_Willis> but debootstrap is not for beginners. :)
[19:36] <Dr_Willis> XOXO1:  what os is on the other pc?
[19:36] <XOXO1> W7
[19:36] <ActionParsnip> !samba | XOXO1
[19:36] <dougl> I have been usint linux for 15 years can debootstrap work for me?
[19:37] <Dext-roid> Jpcambell300: so I should use a dvd? Will my files be preserved if I don't format?
[19:37] <Dr_Willis> XOXO1:  set up samba, or install ssh server and use winscp on windows. for accessing it.. but if its on a memory card.. why not plug that into the otehr pc?
[19:37] <Dr_Willis> dougl:  check its docs and find out. :)
[19:37]  * dougl googling debootstrap
[19:37] <qanadin> When I am creating the Virtual disk, I am using a fixed amount, instead of a dynamically expanding hard drisk.  But I am getting an error when creating the disk space.  "VDI: setting image size failed for '/media/Storage/VirtualMachine/harddisk/win7.vdi' (VERR_FILE_TOO_BIG).
[19:37] <Dr_Willis> dougl:  ive never wanted to install that way.
[19:37] <XOXO1> my second pc does not have a card reader :>
[19:37] <ActionParsnip> qanadin: how much free space do you have available in $HOME
[19:38] <qanadin> I am not installing it in my $HOME directory
[19:38] <qanadin> I am putting it on a secondary 850 gig hard drive
[19:38] <ActionParsnip> XOXO1: sudo apt-get install samba    and you can share the mount point of the card
[19:38] <Dr_Willis>  vbox generates the hd image files in the users home last i looked...
[19:38] <qanadin> that has like 700gigs avail
[19:38] <Dr_Willis> .vbox dir.. double check that its using that perhaps..
[19:38] <ActionParsnip> qanadin: is it mounted writable?
[19:38] <Dext-roid> Can't I get rid of my desktop environment via apt and install it again?
[19:38] <qanadin> yes
[19:38] <Dr_Willis> Dext-roid:  you can remove and reinstall stuff.. but what are you thinking you will gain?
[19:39] <ActionParsnip> Dext-roid: fairly useless, it will still use the same cofigs
[19:39] <Dext-roid> Hmm
[19:39] <enterneo> is there a ipv6 version of apt-get
[19:39] <qanadin> ActionParsnip it should be as I am able to write to it not using VirtualBox
[19:39] <Dext-roid> can't my data be preserved with a fresh install? I don't have anything to backup my data onto.
[19:39] <Dr_Willis> Dext-roid:  the system package manager does NOT NOT NOT touch the users config files.
[19:40] <Dr_Willis> Dext-roid:  backup your home dir, and other setting files to an online service perhaps.
[19:40] <Dr_Willis> 2gb for free at UbuntuOne.
[19:40] <Dext-roid> But I'm in shell....how do I do that? I'm a noob :(
[19:41] <Afflicto> Hey all. I can't switch workspaces. What's wrong? hotkeys are not working and the buttons down in the lower right won't work.
[19:41] <dougl> Dr_Willis, debootstrap = ubuntu the gentoo way -> I have been avoiding that for about 10 years - lol
[19:41] <ActionParsnip> qanadin: i'd ask in #vbox too
[19:41] <qanadin> k
[19:41] <EricSon12331> if i install ubuntu 10.10 over the alternate-cd, do i get a Window-Manager like Gnome installed as usall?
[19:42] <ActionParsnip> EricSon12331: makes sense.I'd do a clean install personally
[19:42] <Dr_Willis> EricSon12331:  just install the ubuntu-desktop package...
[19:42] <Dr_Willis> 'install ing over a installed system' would that not be basically eraseing the installed system.. theres no 'over' type install option.
[19:43] <arand> EricSon12331: It will install it automaticaly per default
[19:43] <EricSon12331> thank you arand :)
[19:43] <EricSon12331> just asking as iam going to install it over the alternate-cd due to the crypt-features :)
[19:44] <Dr_Willis> the amternative cd - installs a normal desktop same as the Desktop cd.. last i tried it.
[19:44] <EricSon12331> ok, thats fine^^
[19:45] <wullee> does the alternate iso still does not work with wifi or mobile broadband?
[19:45] <ActionParsnip> wullee: depends on the chip
[19:45] <wullee> ActionParsnip, i forgot yes
[19:46] <Dr_Willis> after it installs.. it would be the same as a desktop install. :) but during install.. hard to tell.
[19:46] <Dext-roid> Dr_Wills: how do I perform the backup in she'll).
[19:46] <Dr_Willis> Dext-roid:  via proper use of the 'cp' command or scp to copy it somewhere..  i dont know where you are putting things.
[19:46] <Dext-roid> Dr_Wills: ubuntuone?
[19:47] <Dr_Willis> 'Ubuntu One' is a directory in your home that gets synced.. No idea how that works from a console only setup
[19:47] <Dr_Willis> #ubuntuone may know.
[19:48] <Jon--> Dext-roid: ubuntuone is like a 2GB share between your ubuntu machine and other ubuntu machines that you can access. It's a way you could transfer files and configuration between your computers. Any other method for transferring data will work.
[19:50] <Odaym> when i am extracting a .tar, it's not extracting with its folders and whatnot
[19:50] <peturie> Hello
[19:50] <Dr_Willis> I dont even know if the ubuntu one 'service' is ran befor the user logs in normally to X or not. I would think its part of gnome.
[19:50] <Odaym> and just dropping all the files in the 1st level of all folders, randomly
[19:50] <Odaym> how do i do it properly on terminal?
[19:50] <Afflicto> Hey guys
[19:51] <peturie> I need a centralized user database for a network of ubuntu machines, is NIS the way to go?
[19:51] <llutz> Odaym: tar xf foo.tar
[19:51] <Afflicto> I can't switch workspace! buttons in lower-right doesen't work, nor does the hotkeys. help! I need to work.
[19:51] <Odaym> it will extract to that same folder yes llutz?
[19:52] <llutz> Odaym: yes, use -C to give a path (man tar)
[19:53] <ActionParsnip> peturie: look into openldap
[19:54] <wullee> I used the tool bastille from repository and it messed everything up like programs not running and other things but internet still working, then I went in here and asked about it. Then I saw someone sending or receiving files from me. Now I use a live cd and did these revert steps of the tool. How can I check if everzthing is correct again?
[19:54] <Chilaquiles> hey guys does anybody know any software that compares two text files and tells me what are the differences between those in ubuntu?
[19:54] <llutz> Chilaquiles: diff
[19:55] <Chilaquiles> with GUI
[19:55] <arand> Chilaquiles: tkdiff
[19:55] <ActionParsnip> Chilaquiles: diff isn't bad at all :)
[19:56] <Chilaquiles> ActionParsnip: isn't that the one that runs on the terminal?
[19:56] <XOXO1> hey i managed to share a folder on my Home dir but i cant share a memory card folder, says folder is not accessible
[19:57] <N3wBi3> neeeeeeeeeeed help plz plz plz plz!!! ubuntu is not responding after the login screen!!
[19:57] <N3wBi3> someooooooooooooone help me
[19:57] <ActionParsnip> Chilaquiles: sure but its a decent app, all ANY gui will be is an X version of the same data, so why bother
[19:57] <phoenixsampras> N3wBi3: what is the log message?
[19:58] <Chilaquiles> I tryied that I think on the terminal and gave me headache
[19:58] <Chilaquiles> *tried
[19:59] <arand> Chilaquiles: "diff -u file1 file2 | less", meld is another popular gui alternative
[19:59] <ttist25> hi everybody.  I'm having trouble trying to get a software RAID5 to boot in degraded mode .  Can anyone help?
[19:59] <hiexpo> what is the differance in useing apt and aptitude
[19:59] <ikonia> ttist25: is /boot on a seperate non-radi5 partition
[20:00] <ttist25> everything is on the array
[20:00] <kitty_> where would i find help on getting library dependancies for a package resolved?
[20:00] <ikonia> ttist25: you know /boot should be on a seperate partition that is not raid 5 don't you ?
[20:00] <Frogbarf> I just installed unbuntu on xen, but was never prompted to enter a root password during installation.  Do I still need to do that?
[20:00] <Frogbarf> i can't su root
[20:00] <ttist25> no - I thought I could have everything in the array
[20:00] <ikonia> Frogbarf: no
[20:00] <ikonia> !sudo  | Frogbarf
[20:00] <ikonia> ttist25: no, you can't
[20:00] <ttist25> I figured it was something fundamental like that
[20:01] <ttist25> crap
[20:01] <ActionParsnip> Frogbarf: use:   sudo -i
[20:01] <Frogbarf> thanks
[20:01] <ttist25> I'm setting up a virtual machine server that will be running 6 winxp machines in virtualbox
[20:01] <ActionParsnip> Frogbarf: your user is in a group called Admin giving it access to sudo and gksudo
[20:02] <Frogbarf> sorry, I'm a Suse user. This is my first experience with this distro. I am trying to get networking to work
[20:02] <BusMaster> I was to download the ubuntu-server CD .iso from a mirror in Sweden. Why is it so darn difficult to find the url to the iso?
[20:02] <ttist25> i wanted to use raid so that if a drive failed it would still run degraded until i could get onsite and fix it
[20:02] <ikonia> Frogbarf: look at https://help.ubuntu.com fo overview dos
[20:03] <ttist25> would raid1 work?
[20:03] <Frogbarf> Since it's a xen install on a "remote" box, I'd like to be able to log into it via remote x
[20:03] <ikonia> ttist25: reading and understanding the rules before implementing is an important part of doing someonething with out rushing in
[20:03] <BenXYZ> Is there an editor packaged with ubuntu out-of-the-box that includes C syntax highlighting?
[20:03] <Frogbarf> this vnc window is  horrible
[20:03] <BusMaster> one would imagine a link to a list of mirrors to figure prominently on the download page. Instead, there is a silly button which masks the original url so I can't conveninently wget it from my text based setup
[20:04] <ttist25> agreed - that's why i'm testing this - it's not production
[20:04] <ikonia> ttist25: ok, then it's time to do some research
[20:04] <ttist25> i'm doing dry runs to make sure i can recover when i need to
[20:05] <wullee> I get critical warnings after i used a tool that changes user settings. I did all revert steps but is there a tool that can check if ubuntu is safe again?
[20:05] <Buceph> Is there any software that's like DU Monitor. That'll show me my current download speed and total downloaded amount?
[20:05] <troulouliou> hi how can i disable ssh service startup ; neither /et/init.d nor update-rcd are working on 10.10
[20:05] <ttist25> i've seen documentation where people are using os partitions in a mirrored raid1 configuration and then having the raid5 on three other drives
[20:05] <gilles> hi could any1 help me install starcraft 2 with my cd ans wine please?
[20:05] <ikonia> wullee: what tool
[20:05] <ikonia> ttist25: yes, that is true
[20:06] <ttist25> I've only got 4 sata ports
[20:06] <wullee> ikonia bastille
[20:06] <ikonia> wullee: ok, so what's the real issue then ?
[20:06] <saulus> hey, I want to create a NAT gateway. I followed this howto http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=713874 but it does not work. Can you help me?
[20:06] <ttist25> so my os drive would be unprotected
[20:06] <ikonia> ttist25: raid 1 is a mirror it's protected
[20:07] <wullee> ikonia, after the changes i couldnt open programs and someone downloaded or send me files via dcc
[20:07] <ttist25> btw - thanks for discussing this with me.  I've been banging my head for three days
[20:07] <ikonia> wullee: yes, that's what bastile mode will do
[20:07] <lucid_j> Hi, is there any plugin for Totem movie player that allows me to watch internet tv channels?
[20:07] <baslisks> hey, does firefox in 10.4 lts have html5 support?
[20:07] <ttist25> right - but I was hoping to use raid5 because of read times
[20:07] <wullee> ikonia, now i worry that the system is corrupted and i have not enough knowledge to see if its true
[20:07] <ShakeyJake> buceph: conky can probably do what you want
[20:07] <ikonia> ttist25: what will your machine be doing
[20:08] <ttist25> i thought it would be better for my application
[20:08] <ikonia> wullee: then you need to re-install to go to a sane config
[20:08] <_cronus_> ttist25, it might be better to invest into a hardware raid solution. I never had any problem with those.
[20:08] <ttist25> it's going to run headless as a virtual machine server
[20:08] <ikonia> ttist25: does your application push high iops
[20:08] <Frogbarf> woohoo, I have a network connection
[20:08] <wullee> ikonia, is there no other chance?
[20:08] <Buceph> Cheers Shakey.
[20:08] <ikonia> wullee: not if you don't know what it's done
[20:08] <ttist25> my client is broke - trying to avoid spening more money
[20:09] <ShakeyJake> buceph: are you comfortable using it? running it already?
[20:09] <ttist25> i'm using vboxheadless boxes 6 of them
[20:09] <mer_ge> will there be a stable ppa for firefox 4? the mozilla stable ppa seems offline and outdated...
[20:09] <gilles> hi could any1 help me install starcraft 2 with my cd ans wine please?
[20:09] <Frogbarf> Now how can I configure it allow remote x sessions?
[20:09] <ikonia> Frogbarf: read the document URL I gave you earlier
[20:10] <lucid_j> ShakeyJake: I am using it and I was wondering if I can add a Totem movie player on desktop using Conky!
[20:10] <wullee> ikonia, can i send a lof of something to someone who could tell me whats wrong?
[20:10] <ttist25> not sure what an iop is - input output?
[20:10] <Frogbarf> k
[20:10] <wullee> ikonia, can i send a lof of something to someone who could tell me whats wrong?
[20:10] <wullee> }log
[20:10] <ttist25> i'm skating on the edge of noobidity
[20:10] <ikonia> wullee: there are paid consultants, sure, contact canonical
[20:10] <tripelb> hiexpo I'm looking
[20:11] <ActionParsnip> gilles: try playonlinux  it may help
[20:11] <arand> wullee: Or is there is a specific issue, pastebin the error here, or ask for help on the forums.
[20:11] <GOMI> got a question , i have ubuntu running good right now but i wish to experiment with commands to learn is theire a safe enviroment in ubuntu itself ?
[20:11] <daniel_> ok this is gonna sound dumb but can i get android apps to work on ubuntu ?
[20:11] <wullee> ikonia, would posting it in a forum be a security risk or something? arand, ok thank you everybody
[20:11] <GOMI> or must it be vm stuff
[20:11] <ShakeyJake> lucid_j: as far as im aware there's no option to play video through conky, although  you can do some pretty funky things with lua these days
[20:11] <ikonia> daniel_: they are a different operating system
[20:11] <chims> no for now
[20:11] <ikonia> wullee: that's up to you to decide
[20:11] <ActionParsnip> daniel_: http://news.softpedia.com/news/How-to-Run-Android-Applications-on-Ubuntu-115152.shtml

[20:13] <lucid_j> Is there any plugin for totem that allows me to watch internet tv channels?
[20:13] <ttist25> would I be better using RAID1?
[20:13] <tripelb> re difference between aptitude and apt-get for me and hiexpo  - What does this mean? --> aptitude is a wrapper for dpkg just like apt-get/apt-cache, but it is a one-stop-shop tool for searching/installing/removing/querying.
[20:13] <ActionParsnip> gilles: maybe some help there
[20:14] <arand> wullee: I presumed you knew which file and had a specific error that you experienced when I suggested that, if there are no current symptoms, that will presumably not do.
[20:14] <shomon_> hi, how do I configure my firewall to allow me to connect to windows computers via samba?
[20:14] <shomon_> I'm using firestarter...
[20:15] <wullee> arand, no damn...
[20:15] <arand> tripelb: apt-get is the recommended tool in ubuntu.
[20:15] <ActionParsnip> shomon_: seems to be port 445 and 139 TCP
[20:15] <shomon_> thanks!
[20:15] <tripelb> re difference between aptitude and apt-get for me and hiexpo  - arand. I use it, ie apt-get but I'm wondering. why is it the recommended.
[20:15] <daniel_> ok now vice versa can i get ubuntu apps in android?
[20:15] <gilles> how do i take screen shots of my desktop ? .. same thing as wiondows? .. print sreen key?
[20:16] <itaylor57> daniel you would have to port them via android sdk
[20:16] <arand> tripelb: since aptitude was removed from the standard desktop seed.
[20:16] <x_> applications/accesories/take_screen_shot
[20:16] <wullee> arand, it says that some files have no ending but i know this only from the ani virus log. where can i see all system changes?
[20:17] <x_> @gilles
[20:17] <tripelb> arand, what does "seed" mean in this context? And what was the disadvantage or advantage that caused it to be removed?
[20:17] <shomon_> ActionParsnip: is there a wildcard for 192.168.0.everything?
[20:17] <Iatagore> When I use GDebi, is there a log for this? What application is used to install .deb files?
[20:17] <arand> wullee: logs ara normally in /var/logs
[20:17] <ActionParsnip> shomon_: 192.168.0.0/24   if it accepts network classes
[20:17] <arand> tripelb: It was removed to save space on the liveCD
[20:17] <tripelb> arand, apologies if I am not having a "problem" but I need somehow to get some background understanding so .. I am teaching myself to fish.
[20:18] <hseal12> Hey guys. I just deleted my vista partition in gparted. How do I use this memory for a different partition (namely the one I'm using for Ubuntu)?
[20:18] <shomon_> ok, well, I'll try and see, thanks ActionParsnip
[20:18] <wullee> arand, i know, but there are so many different config files, i looked already, will check again now
[20:18] <naknomik> I'm trying to install additional SATA disks and I see that when number of disks changes and I reboot, everytime each disk gets a different /dev/ id, for example, root disk sometimes gets /dev/sda[1,2,3,4,5] etc and sometimes /dev/sdd[1,2,3,4,5] etc. I use UUIDs for kernel and fstab command line so booting works, but this doesn't seem to work for RAID arrays (md* devices) how do I fix this?
[20:18] <reval> hseal, have you tried using GPartEd?
[20:18] <hseal12> that's what I'm using now
[20:18] <tripelb> hseal, why not just use it for storage. or as a NTFS partition that can be read by any system
[20:19] <lucid_j> Is there any plugin for totem that allows me to watch internet tv channels?
[20:19] <tripelb> I need a subnick "learning_to_fish" like a subtitle
[20:19] <x_> @nakomik i heard if you turn the shower on, throw the HDD in there, soap, water blow dry.  prob solved
[20:20] <broon_sparrow> Hi. Something weird going on - I'm not see two USB conected storage devices (a HD and flash card) that used to connect fine), but I am getting a new NETWORK drive, when I click on it I get a DESKTOP and Windows Network folder in it. Bizarrely when I connect the flashcard to another computer I still can't access the card but can now see this network option which has a windows network and MYCOMPUTERNAME desktop....wha
[20:20] <broon_sparrow> t's going on? Any ideas?
[20:20] <naknomik> x_: Have a nice day!
[20:20] <bcj> How do I add extra filesystem types to mount?
[20:21] <bcj> I get the following: "mount error: ceph filesystem not supported by the system"
[20:21] <bcj> How can I add support for mounting Ceph filesystems
[20:21] <bcj> ?
[20:21] <arand> bcj: search for utils in the repos
[20:21] <bcj> arand: How do I search in the repos?
[20:22] <bcj> Ah
[20:22] <bcj> I think I need ceph-client-tools
[20:22] <bcj> Hmm, maybe not
[20:23] <reval> bcj are you familiar with synaptic?
[20:23] <arand> bcj: Seems like it's too new to be in the repositories: http://ceph.newdream.net/wiki/Debian
[20:23] <reval> bcj also do you have a gui going, or no gui?
[20:23] <bcj> Well, the test machine is headless
[20:23] <arand> bcj: Otherwise it would be e.g. "apt-cache search ceph"
[20:23] <broon_sparrow> I'm running 10.04 and have had no problem connecting the drives before.
[20:24] <bcj> arand: Something is up then
[20:24] <bcj> I've installed ceph on the host machine
[20:24] <lucid_j> When I try to watch a YouTube video on Totem I receive an error: GStreamer encountered a general supporting library error
[20:24] <reval> bcj you can probably still apt-get install aptitude, and then do aptitude search ceph, but the guy in between my 2 texts prob. has a better solution
[20:24] <lucid_j> Does anyone has the same problem?
[20:24] <bcj> I've already installed ceph
[20:25] <bcj> The host parts of it are working fine (the Ceph system is running) - I just can't mount the thing
[20:25] <ActionParsnip> lucid_j: can you use http://pastebin.com   and give the output of:  uname -a; lsb_release -a; dpkg -l | grep flash; dpkg -l | grep gnash; dpkg -l | grep swf
[20:25] <broon_sparrow> the only item in the desktop is a folder called PRINT$
[20:25] <jwtiyar> where the conversation saved in empathy?
[20:26] <reval> bcj you'd probably find a ceph fuse module or additional plugin for filesystems. also though http://ceph.newdream.net/wiki/Debian
[20:26] <reval> as reposted from arand
[20:26] <donnib> how does one set ubunto to mount a smb on every boot ?
[20:26] <bcj> reval: From what I was reading of Ceph, it's in the kernel now - the FUSE filesystem layer is no longer supported
[20:26] <donnib> is there some where in settings ?
[20:26] <x_> yo sucka
[20:26] <x_> fuckin irish mic
[20:27] <lucid_j> ActionParnship: Paste what?
[20:27] <irishmick> new to ubuntu. this OS is sweet
[20:27] <reval> bcj I did not know that.
[20:28] <x_> irish mic is a n00000000000000000000b
[20:28] <arand> bcj: mount.ceph
[20:28] <oCean> x_: stop that please
[20:28] <Lancelot> My sound has stopped working. Is there a way for me to restart ALSA or do I need to restart my computer
[20:28] <x_> @ocean no
[20:28] <arand> bcj: Maybe you'll have to specifically use the mount.ceph binary in /sbin/
[20:28] <oCean> !guidelines > x_
[20:29] <reval> Lancelot which ubuntu are you using? I want to know if it is a newer one with pulse or one with just alsa
[20:29] <broon_sparrow> what/where is smb://
[20:29] <gakhan> broon_sparrow, it's gvfs convention for SMB networks
[20:30] <bcj> arand: I'll try that, thanks
[20:30] <Lancelot> reval, I'm using Karmic
[20:30] <Lancelot> reval, to be honest I'm not sure
[20:30] <reval> Lancelot I bet that has pulseaudio, from terminal type in 'pulseaudio --kill' and then type in 'pulseaudio --start'
[20:31] <Lancelot> reval, standby
[20:31] <lucid_j> I cannot play youtube videos on totem: GStreamer encountered a general supporting library error. Any advice?
[20:31] <broon_sparrow> gakhan - sorry but what does that mean? I've got a weird network folder showing up and it's location is smb://edward-desktop/  -I've noever come across that locatyion before, what would that mean? any ideas? Since it's appear no USB storage devices are working
[20:32] <popeluvsu> Having tons of wifi issues with ubuntu 10.10 on my lenovo thinkpad edge. its my first time using linux at all and I spent the last 2 days glued to forums and tutorials trying to resolve.. should switch to 10.4 instead? Is that less buggy?
[20:32] <Lancelot> reval, it didn't work
[20:32] <reval> lancelot ok, one minute then
[20:32] <gakhan> it's your computer name... ther should be shares in it
[20:32] <tsimpson> broon_sparrow: smb is windows shares
[20:33] <reval> Lancelot try sudo /etc/init.d/alsa-utils restart
[20:33] <broon_sparrow> why would I have a windows shares folder on Ubuntu? Would WINE create it? How can i delete it?
[20:33] <Lancelot> reval, I already tried that
[20:33] <GeekyAdam> why doesn't thunderbird like my godaddy site email password?
[20:33] <ActionParsnip> lucid_j: run the command, make a pastebin
[20:33] <reval> lancelot ok one more thing then, finding it, they changed it around at some point.
[20:34] <tsimpson> broon_sparrow: it would either be created by installing samba, or someone on your network sharing files/directories/printers
[20:35] <lucid_j> ActionParnship: Which command?
[20:36] <reval> lancelot I know at some point you could do sudo service gdm restart to deal with the gdm, but I can't find a similar command, this thread shows how to kill the processes involved, and that might help.. my last resort really http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=452448
[20:37] <Lancelot> reval, I might as well just reboot
[20:37] <azizLIGHTS> how do i scp files through a reverse ssh tunnel?
[20:37] <Inphernal> Does Ubuntu have a file name length limit like XP?
[20:37] <broon_sparrow> tsimpson: i've not installed samba (as far as I know!) and i'm not on a network
[20:37] <reval> lancelot I know that was a format change from /etc/init.d/gdm (or alsa-utils) restart
[20:37] <Lancelot> I haven't followed that too well
[20:37] <ActionParsnip> Inphernal: yes it does
[20:37] <reval> lancelot if it is a constant problem, you could probably make a script to kill it
[20:37] <Lancelot> reval, is there a place that has good documentation on this stuff
[20:38] <Lancelot> I guess I could
[20:38] <bcj> arand: Ok, when invoking /sbin/mount.ceph directly, I still get the same error: "mount error: ceph filesystem not supported by the system"
[20:38] <broon_sparrow> also it appears on another PC (with my computer desktop) when the flash card is plugged into their machine
[20:38] <reval> lancelot I really don't know, I'm a hobbyist at best.
[20:38] <gilles> hi i am trying to install Starcraft 2 with play on linux .. i get to a point where its asking me for a command and i get an error? can any1 help
[20:38] <ActionParsnip> Inphernal: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ext4 says: 256 bytes
[20:38] <reval> I've got the same question now though, heh.
[20:38] <Lancelot> reval, here's something interesting, the process can't die.
[20:38] <reval> even with sudoL?
[20:38] <ActionParsnip> gilles: grab the wine ppa to getwine 1.3   it may help
[20:39] <Lancelot> I tried killing it from the process manager this time
[20:39] <reval> how is it unkillable?  does it just say it can't die?
[20:39] <Lancelot> it just comes back as root, and then runs under my user
[20:39] <dean> helo
[20:39] <W3ird_N3rd> oh my
[20:39] <W3ird_N3rd> I'm sad now
[20:39] <gilles> ive been trying this for a few days// might have to go back to windows
[20:39] <reval> well, on the bright side, if it's doing that it was restarted to a degree
[20:39] <ActionParsnip> gilles: also ask in #winehq
[20:39] <reval> what is your specific problem? what are you trying to get to happen?
[20:39] <W3ird_N3rd> how is it possible the task bar on top on a fresh (mini.iso) Ubuntu 1010 install just.. vaporizes
[20:39] <Inphernal> ActionParsnip: I have an external HD with about 50-100gb of backup data, but the disk is messing up. I'm trying to copy the contents to my XP computer, and it keeps stopping a little into it complaining it cannot copy the files cause the file names are too long. Any recommendations as to what I could do to save my data before I send the disk in?
[20:40] <gilles> i have teamviewer if some1 wants to view and help me out ?
[20:40] <Lancelot> reval, I tried terminating the pulse audio process
[20:40] <W3ird_N3rd> it's still there, I can open the menu using alt+F1
[20:40] <Lancelot> reval, when I do, the python process comes out of sleep, and the process re-appears
[20:40] <W3ird_N3rd> but otherwise invisible
[20:40] <ActionParsnip> Inphernal: what file system is the external storage using?
[20:40] <Inphernal> I thought maybe I could copy it into this computer with Ubuntu, but I guess I'll just encounter the same problem
[20:40] <dunmanifestin> how does KDE work?
[20:40] <reval> I started a dialogue box so it wouldn't spam other question askers, heh.
[20:41] <Inphernal> ActionParsnip: NTFS
[20:41] <ActionParsnip> dunmanifestin: can you expand the question please
[20:41] <jiltdil> how to unzip a .zip file via terminal?
[20:41] <ActionParsnip> Inphernal: should be ok, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ntfs
[20:41] <ActionParsnip> jiltdil: unzip filename.zip
[20:41] <dunmanifestin> well.. how do i know its installed properly? like a gui or something?
[20:41] <itaylor57> ActionParsnip: LOL
[20:41] <ActionParsnip> jiltdil: or install unp and run:  unp filename
[20:42] <broon_sparrow> tsimpson: i seems I do have samba installed - is it safe to uninstall?
[20:42] <arand> bcj: I don't know then, I'm afraid
[20:42] <Inphernal> ActionParsnip: Will Ubuntu not complain about the file name lengths?
[20:42] <ActionParsnip> dunmanifestin: if you used the package system it will be installed properly
[20:42] <jiltdil> ActionParsnip:thanx
[20:42] <ActionParsnip> Inphernal: ntfs has limits, listed on that page
[20:42] <bcj> arand: Thanks anyway - it might be a bug in the package.
[20:42] <dunmanifestin> what, the synaptic package manager? it should be but it keeps crashing when i try enable desktop effects
[20:43] <coz_> hey guys
[20:43] <yuzodo> yo
[20:43] <Inphernal> ActionParsnip: Ok, I'll give it a try. Thank you
[20:44] <W3ird_N3rd> ok
[20:44] <W3ird_N3rd> now seriously
[20:44] <W3ird_N3rd> I install a fresh Maverick
[20:44] <W3ird_N3rd> and now after 2 reboots or so, I CAN'T LOGIN.
[20:44] <douglarret> hey coz_
[20:44] <cryptodira> ActionParsnip, i was expecting a password prompt to activate the fglrx drivers.... instead, i get "you are not authorized to perform this action"... what would be the proper cli syntax?    10.10 amd/64
[20:44] <W3ird_N3rd> now I understand not every bug is found in testing
[20:44] <W3ird_N3rd> but what the fuck is this shit?
[20:44] <jrib> W3ird_N3rd: what happens when you try to login?
[20:45] <W3ird_N3rd> I login, background from user comes up, get thrown back to login screen
[20:45] <jrib> W3ird_N3rd: please mind your language in this channel.  Also, try to keep questions and replies to a single line
[20:45] <ActionParsnip> cryptodira: gksudo jockey    should do it
[20:45] <jrib> W3ird_N3rd: create a fresh new user and see if you can login there
[20:45] <tsimpson> broon_sparrow: if you don't want to use windows file sharing, remove it
[20:45] <LtHummus> Can someone help me diagnose my lirc issues?  I had it working in 10.04, but my remote control is unresponsive in 10.10.  The USB reciever is definetly there as lsusb sees it.  I've tried reinstalling/reconfiguring lirc to no avail.  irw shows nothing when i press buttons (and the little LED on the reciever lights up to indicate that it sees my presses).  I've tried asking in #lirc but no response
[20:45] <W3ird_N3rd> sorry jrib this kind of bugs just makes me loose any understanding. It's too obvious and any testing should have shown it
[20:46] <gilles> i have teamviewer if some1 wants to view and help me out install star craft 2 ? been trying for quite a long time
[20:46] <AcePreshaw> someing is eating my laptops cpu im on 10.04 LTS
[20:46] <jrib> W3ird_N3rd: well, we have no idea what the cause is.  Then we can determine if it's a bug or not.
[20:46] <AcePreshaw> gilles i will
[20:46] <broon_sparrow> tsimpson: any reason why it would interfere with other starage devices? and how would it have been installed?
[20:46] <W3ird_N3rd> jrib, I make a fresh install, set it up to auto-login, reboot, dead
[20:46] <W3ird_N3rd> any testing would have shown that
[20:46] <jrib> W3ird_N3rd: do you have encrypted homes?
[20:46] <ActionParsnip> W3ird_N3rd: what release did you install?
[20:47] <cryptodira> ActionParsnip,  tried that.... it searched for drivers then returend the same error mgs: 'you are not authorized to perform this action'.
[20:47] <qba> hey, is it ok to buy radeon graphics 4 ubuntu?
[20:47] <ActionParsnip> W3ird_N3rd: how big are your partitions?
[20:47] <tsimpson> broon_sparrow: no, it shouldn't have any effect on a storage device
[20:47] <ActionParsnip> qba: most are supported, yes
[20:47] <qba> thx
[20:47] <W3ird_N3rd> ActionParsnip, ext4 little under 60GB, 1,5GB swap iirc
[20:47] <broon_sparrow> tsimpson: ty. i'll uninstall and then see if I can access storage devices.
[20:48] <cryptodira> ActionParsnip,  the flgrx are on the system.... just not activatalbe
[20:48] <W3ird_N3rd> jrib, no encrypted home, ActionParsnip, maverick 10.10
[20:48] <antonio_> djd
[20:48] <jrib> W3ird_N3rd: can you login with a fresh new user?
[20:48] <ActionParsnip> W3ird_N3rd: ok so not due to full systems
[20:48] <W3ird_N3rd> just set it up so the only user (made during install) should auto-login
[20:48] <douglarret> +----
[20:48] <lucid_j> Is there any way to watch internet tv streaming channels on Totem Movie Player?
[20:49] <douglarret> -+++++
[20:49] <W3ird_N3rd> I can't really set up another user now anyway, I can't get past the login screen
[20:49] <W3ird_N3rd> I'll try the commandline
[20:49] <jrib> W3ird_N3rd: use a tty (ctrl-alt-f1)
[20:49] <W3ird_N3rd> jrib, that was my idea, but doesn't work
[20:49] <W3ird_N3rd> screen goes weird
[20:49] <ActionParsnip> lucid_j: if you give the output of the command I gave I can help you
[20:49] <jrib> W3ird_N3rd: what doesn't work?
[20:49] <W3ird_N3rd> no visible tty
[20:50] <jrib> W3ird_N3rd: use recovery mode then
[20:50] <GuRaX> Hey, did somebody ever tried to sync evolution contacts to a remote couchdb(not ubuntu one) and succeeded??
[20:50] <W3ird_N3rd> graphics corruption, it looks like a mixture of backgrounds
[20:50] <W3ird_N3rd> jrib, I guess I'll just put in another graphics card
[20:50] <W3ird_N3rd> hopefully that'll fix it
[20:50] <ActionParsnip> W3ird_N3rd: what video chip do you use?
[20:51] <W3ird_N3rd> Matrox G400
[20:51] <ActionParsnip> W3ird_N3rd: tried the bootoption: nomodeset
[20:51] <ActionParsnip> W3ird_N3rd: you can also try blacklisting the current driver so you force the OS to use vesa, you can then get updated
[20:52] <W3ird_N3rd> ActionParsnip, I guess updating isn't going to do much, I don't think the Matrox drives has been updates for ages
[20:52] <e\ectro> My laptop keeps booting and lucid startup gives an error that the FS contains errors and its checking,  After checking it reboots and im stuck in an infinite boot loop of checking.  I have knoppix on a USB, i boot in run fsck.ext4 -v /dev/sda1 and reboot only to be stuck in the boot loop once again.  Any ideas?
[20:52] <W3ird_N3rd> *driver
[20:52] <Tesa1> How can i assign the result of this line $echo 'lo[example] (lol)' | sed 's:\([()=!"'\''$'\[' ]\):\\\1:g'   to a variable?
[20:52] <W3ird_N3rd> e\ectro, the laptop reboots while checking?
[20:53] <e\ectro> W3ird_N3rd: after it checks to 100%
[20:53] <AcePreshaw> e\ectro, it can be an bad seter on your HDD
[20:53] <e\ectro> auto reboot
[20:53] <jrib> Tesa1: foo=$(some command in here)
[20:53] <e\ectro> hmmm
[20:53] <ActionParsnip> W3ird_N3rd: but the kernel has as has Xorg, could be the difference
[20:54] <AcePreshaw> your best bet the the hdd went
[20:54] <W3ird_N3rd> ActionParsnip, there's nothing to update anyway, I installed from mini.iso, so unless I activate backports..
[20:55] <ActionParsnip> W3ird_N3rd: i'd look into that.
[20:56] <cryptodira> ActionParsnip,  here is the pastebin for the same problem as lucid_j.... grep flash and swf did not return anything....http://pastebin.com/jDFLiZeY
[20:56] <gilles> i have teamviewer if some1 wants to view and help me out installing starcraft2, been trying for a long time .. thx
[20:56]  * AcePreshaw is away: I'm busy or i put the lid down
[20:57] <jrib> !away > AcePreshaw

[21:14] <ActionParsnip> W3ird_N3rd: cool, sounds like a bug with the driver for matrox
[21:14] <W3ird_N3rd> I think I've seen this bug before, it's been wandering around for years but nobody actually still uses a Matrox
[21:14] <W3ird_N3rd> wel except for me I guess
[21:14] <ActionParsnip> memo_: try adding the boot option:    acpi=off
[21:14] <ActionParsnip> W3ird_N3rd: I guess :(
[21:14] <memo_> how do i do that
[21:15] <kramble> hi, is there a shortcut to autosize columns in the file explorer ?

[21:16] <sum_> hi guys
[21:16] <hseal12> Hey guys, I'm trying to do this (I was here earlier but I somehow messed it up after successfully following some advice): http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/linux-newbie-8/how-can-i-remove-vista-from-a-ubuntu-vista-dual-boot-648401/
[21:16] <gratefulgrass> hi
[21:16] <Repozitor> ?
[21:16] <hseal12> Anyway, I was told that this line of code "sudo chmod -R username.username /home/username/Data"
[21:16] <coz_> gerrin,   in terminal   lspci | grep -i vga
[21:16] <ActionParsnip> mongy: huh?
[21:16] <hseal12> was incorrect somewhow
[21:16] <hseal12> and it was chmod that was wrong, but I can't remember exactly what it was replaced with.
[21:16] <ActionParsnip> gerrin: or     sudo lshw -C display
[21:16] <MeanEYE> hseal12: use : instead of .
[21:16] <kramble> hseal12, maybe username:username is better
[21:16] <mongy> ActionParsnip, hah, just saying, I have learned a few things..
[21:17] <Odaym> if i am SSH'ed as root to a certain machine, and i want to grab a file from a user UserX on that machine and throw it to the machine that i am SSH'ing from.. this is the right way? "scp -P 22015 82.133.5.30:~/UserX/home/file1 oday@Hive696:~/"
[21:17] <hseal12> All right, tryin' it..
[21:17] <ActionParsnip> mongy: hehe nice, not sure if it works but we'll see
[21:17] <dougl> why doesn't ubuntu support my video card - nvidia GeForce GT 220?
[21:17] <hseal12> Invalid mode error.
[21:18] <gratefulgrass> anybody use jolicloud?
[21:18] <hseal12> I'm on 10.10 by the way.. I remember specifically that I was told "chmod" was incorrect and to replace it with ad ifferent command.
[21:18] <dougl> I mean the ubuntu installer cd does not work... I get garbage display
[21:18] <hseal12> That sounded really similar..
[21:18] <Odaym> but chmod is fine and works
[21:18] <kramble> chmod incorrect ? what a crazy thing
[21:18] <sum_> could someone help me solve a problem with java.security.accesscontrolexception: access denied
[21:18] <memo_> i dont understand once in the grub what and where do i have to add
[21:18] <coz_> dougl,   the driver doesnt show up under additional drivers?
[21:18] <ActionParsnip> Odaym: allowing ssh as root is a really bad idea if you have access from WAN
[21:19] <ActionParsnip> dougl: it does
[21:19] <Odaym> but that's not what i asked
[21:19] <itaylor57> sum_: what are you running?
[21:19] <sum_> ubuntu
[21:19] <ActionParsnip> dougl: install nvidia-current    and it will work
[21:19] <cryptodira> ActionParsnip,  Bingo!  multiverse was NOT enabled.... doing a reload has returned this: pastebin.com/BJtVcpFY
[21:19] <coz_> dougl,  what is causing you to think it is not supported?
[21:19] <memo_> i see the part where says quiet splash
[21:19] <Ben64> Odaym: its wrong
[21:19] <Ben64> you need to do ~user
[21:19] <itaylor57> sum_: what  program is giving you this erros
[21:19] <Odaym> without the ip and all that?
[21:19] <coz_> dougl,   go to system/administration/additional dirvers
[21:20] <ActionParsnip> memo_: line 5?
[21:20] <dougl> coz_, the install cd does not give me the display it does on other machines
[21:20] <Ben64> Odaym: well.. depends where you want to scp and stuff
[21:20] <ActionParsnip> cryptodira: looks like they took the ppa down
[21:20] <Odaym> from the machine, to my machine
[21:20] <dougl> coz_, I cannot get it installed the boot cd always shows garbage
[21:20] <Ben64> but ~/user as root would translate to /root/user
[21:20] <coz_> dougl,   oh!!
[21:20] <gerrin> trying to fix a problem with choppy audio while running VisualBoyAdvance, Im running a 1.80ghz P4 processor, with a ATI Rage128 Pro Ultra TF, graphics card. Anybody know a fix
[21:20] <sum_> an irc chat on a private website
[21:20] <coz_> dougl,  you may want to try the either the alternate cd or the minimal install cd
[21:20] <cryptodira> ActionParsnip,  yepper..... Thank YOU for you help.
[21:21] <ActionParsnip> gerrin: i'd ask in #vbox
[21:21] <ActionParsnip> cryptodira: got flash?
[21:21] <gerrin> ok thanks
[21:21] <llutz> Odaym: scp -P <port-your-local-machine-listens> ~/UserX/home/file1 oday@hostname-of-your-local-machine-from-wan:~/"
[21:21] <memo_> does it supose to look like this GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet splash acpi=off"?
[21:21] <dougl> coz_, will look for the alternate cd again
[21:21] <ActionParsnip> memo_: yes that's it, see it was there wasn't it
[21:22] <llutz> Odaym: man ssh, man scp, "some basic ssh/scp documentation taken from google"      would be my suggestion to read
[21:22] <Odaym> llutz, it keeps asking me for the root password (the one which i logged in with) and i enter it, and it keeps giving me wrong password
[21:22] <onur_> ActionParsnip: sorry about delay. Xchat was frozen

[21:29] <Tester> give me a sec, let me try
[21:29] <coz_> reval,  well the easiest way would be to take an existing theme and do some editioing
[21:29] <coz_> editing
[21:30] <coz_> reval,  there isnt a real goog how to on gtk themeing that I have found
[21:31] <alabd> coz_:  Stryker thanks

[21:31] <onur_> r i will re install ubuntu.
[21:31] <swordz> Stryker, Explain? I don't think so.
[21:31] <Tester> erUSUL i get  -bash: syntax error near unexpected token ´do´
[21:32] <swordz> I have 2 monitor ports on the same card, one VGA, the other DVI
[21:32] <llutz> Tester: ssh user@128.100.100.100 "watch date"
[21:32] <Tester> let me try llutz
[21:32]  * douglarret almost has ubuntu-10.10-alternate-amd64.iso downloaded
[21:32] <coz_> reval,  well not to my knowledge,, unless you already code ... if you look at the gtkrc file you will get an idea as to what you might have to do from scratch
[21:32] <Stryker> swordz, that problem would probably happen when u use 2 vga from one vga port
[21:32] <llutz> Tester: ssh user@128.100.100.100 "TERM=linux watch date"             TERM might be needed on some hosts
[21:32] <coz_> reval,  gtkrc  in one of the exisiting themes I mean
[21:32] <swordz> Stryker, I am not splitting from one out port.
[21:32] <Stryker> swordz i suggest using one monitor on dvi and another from vga
[21:33] <Stryker> do u have nvidia card?
[21:33] <alabd> Stryker:  which repo have you checked ? 10.10 ?
[21:33] <Stryker> yeah, alabd
[21:33] <swordz> I don't know what card I have. And I am using one from each port, one from VGA and one from DVI
[21:33] <alabd> Stryker: your result is not the same as coz_
[21:34] <Tester> llutz it works, thanks, now, how can i make it every 10 seconds or something like that?
[21:34] <Stryker> if u completely uninstall via command line, it will show u what will be unintalled before you make it do so with (y/n)

[21:47] <Odaym> because i created a user while i was root
[21:47] <Odaym> it will be in /root/home..
[21:47] <Odaym> right?
[21:47] <r3m> Hi, I would like to know if its possible with wireshark to search for packet containing the word hello in the data
[21:47] <llutz> nonsense Odaym
[21:47] <pauru> I've read an article witch says that "ubuntu 10.10 is the last distro with 'editions' for desktops and laptops and that from now on there will only be 1 version of the new ubuntu distro
[21:47] <llutz> Odaym: /home/<user>     is the path
[21:47] <Gnea> Nastya: Alright, is the phone an android or windows mobile?
[21:47] <Nastya> Gnea, I'm just curious if it's possible to syncronize android which is basically linux with Ubuntu which is linux either
[21:47] <Nastya> Gnea, Android
[21:48] <Odaym> but still doesn't explain why i'm getting wrong password
[21:48] <llutz> Odaym: ssh in and recheck
[21:48] <hiexpo> r3m, probally better place that would no more about wireshark would be in backtrack-linux
[21:48] <Odaym> password is correct
[21:48] <itaylor57> Nastya: android is a subset of linux
[21:48] <Gnea> Nastya: It shouldn't matter, since 'sync' is a communications protocol that is independent of the OS itself
[21:48] <ActionParsnip> Odaym: users cannot create users
[21:49] <memo_> i didnt apply it because you left
[21:49] <Odaym> i had this problem the first time you guys were helping me put SSH up
[21:49] <Odaym> just refuses the password mindlessly, while it's correct
[21:49] <r3m> thanks
[21:49] <ActionParsnip> Nastya: sync in what way? Sync on its own means nothing
[21:49] <pauru> Android is based in the linux kernel
[21:49] <memo_> what did i had to do?
[21:49] <Nastya> Gnea, thus I can't sync the contacts with my ubuntu?
[21:49]  * Nastya very-very sad
[21:49] <ActionParsnip> memo_: the boot option you added, did it make th touchpad work after a reboot?
[21:49] <greyhatsalafi> anyone of you kind folks know the way to launch a java app (such as minecraft.jar) from the command line?
[21:50] <hiexpo> yep r3m but don't tell them your using ubuntu otherwise they might not help you just ask your ?
[21:50] <erUSUL> greyhatsalafi: java -jar file.jar
[21:50] <Gnea> Nastya: That's not what I said.
[21:50] <thraspic> I'm looking for a screensaver that can output an ascii image in a text file.  Anyone ever seen anything like this?
[21:50] <memo_> i didnt change the boot option how do i do that
[21:50] <erUSUL> greyhatsalafi: it may need some other options. consult minecraft docs ...
[21:51] <Gnea> Nastya: what happens if you choose 'hard drive'?
[21:51] <llutz> Odaym: scp -vvv ....            and watch for errors
[21:51] <ActionParsnip> memo_: in the /etc/default/grub   file, remember? you added acpi=no ??
[21:51] <pauru> Benn: whats the problem?
[21:51] <Nastya> It mounts SD card as a flash  drive
[21:51] <ActionParsnip> memo_: it was less than 15 minutes ago
[21:51] <hiexpo> hello Gnea
[21:51] <Gnea> Nastya: so that shows up in Ubuntu?
[21:51] <Gnea> hiexpo: hi
[21:51] <hiexpo> how you doing today ?
[21:52] <Odaym> debug1: Authentications that can continue: publickey,password
[21:52] <Gnea> the sun is shining, that's about as good as it gets :)
[21:52] <Odaym> Permission denied, please try again.
[21:52] <Nastya> Gnea, Yes. the problem is that the contacts are saved in internal mevice memory, not in the external flash
[21:52] <hiexpo> yeppers
[21:53] <memo_> hold i will reboot
[21:53] <Gnea> Nastya: well, there seems to be some information out there, not sure exactly where yet, but there are a few threads you may want to puruse until we figure it out: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1449864
[21:53] <ActionParsnip> memo_: did you run: sudo update-grub     first?
[21:53] <llutz> Odaym: and ssh root@bla   succeeds?
[21:53] <memo_> yes
[21:53] <Odaym> yes
[21:54] <Odaym> it goes in and prompts for password
[21:54] <hiexpo> Gnea, I am having this weird problem when doing sudo apt-get update   > outputs many errors   > like here is oneof them   have you ever seen this and do you know how to fix it   Failed to fetch http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/lucid-updates/main/source/Sources.bz2  Hash Sum mismatch

[21:55] <MeanEYE> little technical question, do you know where settings for custom folder icons are stored?
[21:55] <leftist> has anyone successfully run dreamweaver in ubuntu?
[21:55] <erUSUL> !appdb | leftist
[21:56] <itaylor57> hiexpo: there seems to be some unreachabe ubuntu repos today

[21:56] <llutz> Odaym: no idea then. your ssh-installation seems to be broken, i never had seen a thing like this.
[21:56] <leftist> i looked at some concepts online but i dont have the right environment for the procedures i see erssul. they dont even respond in #winehq
[21:56] <Gnea> hiexpo: not surprising, given the recent severing of a few underwater hardlines
[21:56] <hiexpo> itaylor57, oh ok so it is a ubuntu problem not my problem ?
[21:56] <leftist> so i hate to use xp in a vm but i have no choice i guess
[21:56] <memo_> it is recognized but not as elantech touchpad it is recognized as a logitech ps/2 wheel mouse
[21:57] <Nastya> Gnea, they claim it is possible to sync contacts with google account. lemme check it
[21:57] <MeanEYE> Odaym: I know how to do that. What am interested in is where is stored information that Downloads folder should have different icon than any other folder
[21:57] <itaylor57> hiexpo: yep change you software sources and all should be good
[21:57] <jenia> how do I test integrity of a deb package or  a folder with deb packages?
[21:57] <Odaym> OH
[21:57] <hiexpo> itaylor57, how do i do that
[21:59] <MeanEYE> so, anyone has any idea on where information about custom folder icon is stored?
[22:00] <itaylor57> hiexpo: go to System  synaptic settings repos

[22:16] <Scunizi> I use Nautilus and Dolphin (kubuntu's default file manager).. each has their plus.. but Dolphin does some things that I'd love to get Nautilus to do.. when dragging files to a new directory it asks if I want to Move, Copy, or "Link here".. If I select multiple files and F2 to rename it will automatically number each file after the name I give.  How do I get Nautilus to do this?

I can't seem to change permissions in the Properties dialog in Nautilus because every time I try I get, "Sorry, could not change the permissions of "disk": Error setting permissions: Read-only file system". Any ideas?

[22:35] <hihihi100> soreau, sounds plausible

[22:38] <Habstinat> soreau: There is no "Disk Utility" in my System/Preferences folder. Also, the device is a PSP. I don't think it should matter though.
[22:39] <eeto> the icon is always 32x32 not changing like real video folder's icon
[22:39] <soreau> Habstinat: Which version of ubuntu?
[22:39] <eeto> how can i assign the "switching" icon to a folder?
[22:39] <Habstinat> soreau: Maverick.
[22:39] <soreau> eeto: You probably need a scalable icon or something
[22:39] <Tesa1> echo "roftlol"     how can i colorize this in shell scripting?
[22:39] <Habstinat> soreau: Found it, it was in System -> Administration.
[22:40] <soreau> Habstinat: Sorry, sys>admin>Disk Utility
[22:40] <eeto> soreau: theiconsthere are already scalable
[22:40] <soreau> eeto: I don't really know much about icons
[22:40] <AnubArack> Anyone knows where I can find Plymouth-manager ... the 1.3.0 in sourceforge gives me a Wrong architecture 'i386'
[22:41] <Habstinat> soreau: Alright. Will this require me to back up my stuff then reformat it?
[22:41] <eeto> soreau: how do one assigs the ones which switch accordingly?
[22:41] <soreau> Habstinat: No, you can just unmount it then mount it again and see if it's rw
[22:41] <soreau> eeto: I have no idea
[22:41] <Habstinat> soreau: Good. So I should press "unmount"?
[22:42] <soreau> Habstinat: yes
[22:42] <Habstinat> soreau: Then mount again?
[22:42] <soreau> Habstinat: right
[22:42] <eeto> anybody else plase?
[22:42] <Habstinat> soreau: It's still RO.

I tried installing on Mint 9 via pkg mngr and after install and config on 9 it does not start and I get all kinds of access errors even when starting as root user or via sudo.  http://pastebin.com/1ZFCqsdM  any ideas?
[22:46] <eeto> bazhang: okay i know that, where shoul i navigate then for "Video" icon?
[22:46] <alex_> Akuma_s: I can't find it at the software.opensuse.org
[22:46] <soreau> Akuma: alex_: nm-applet is just the GUI for gnome-panel. networkmanager is the underlying service
[22:46] <router> how likely is it that i would lose data if i shrunk my windows partition?

[22:47] <Akuma_s> I know that soreau thanks
[22:47] <router> tim_: in other words you havent?
[22:47] <tim_> you can use a tool like dropbox to save your important files as a backup
[22:47] <eeto> bazhang: what?
[22:47] <router> tim_:  yeah i have dropbox
[22:47] <tim_> router, I haven't lost any data from resizing
[22:47] <tim_> :)

[22:48] <bazhang> eeto, your HOME folder
[22:48] <router> tim_: i wanted to give a bit more space to linux
[22:48] <soreau> Habstinat: No, don't use /dev/sda1
[22:48] <yshi> Quick question, a sym link is a sym link is a sym link, right? Like if I have a system with two partitions and boot off a livecd to link link then it WILL work properly when I reboot?
[22:48] <soreau> Habstinat: You want the device node for your psp, /dev/sdd1
[22:48] <eeto> oh my,  I want assign proper icon same as "Video" icon to another folder named "Bla"
[22:49] <eeto> such that it will change with folder view type

[22:49] <bazhang> eeto, then go there and copy the icon
[22:49] <soreau> Habstinat: Run 'mount' to see what's mounted, 'sudo umount /dev/sdd1' and sudo mount /dev/sdd1 /location/ etc etc etc
[22:49] <user____> test
[22:49] <eeto> bazhang: the original icon is spread out into 8 folders/files within ubuntu
[22:49] <hv> is there a way to force each screen output (monitor) have its own panels?
[22:50] <router> tim_: you there/
[22:50] <tim_> heym sorry
[22:51] <soreau> hv: You might be able to have the panel stretch across both monitors but the only way to have two separate panels for each output would be to run two separate X screens, which means you can't drag windows between screens
[22:51] <eeto> so anybody else?
[22:51] <tim_> I like doing it from linux and yes, gparted is my favourite
[22:51] <Tesa1> echo "roftlol"     how can i colorize this in shell scripting?

[22:53] <yuzodo> PeturI, check my PM
[22:53] <truppel> It says no crash reports have been submitted.
[22:54] <tim_> router, I'm heading off to bed at the moment but there are pleanty of tutorials there. It's a very simple tool and you kind of get the hang of it just by opening ti up
[22:54] <truppel> Only the Flash plugin crashes. Firefox still runs.
[22:54] <router> tim_: ok
[22:54] <tim_> *there --> available
[22:54] <user____> truppel: try https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/The%20Adobe%20Flash%20plugin%20has%20crashed

[22:55] <Dthibault> Hello
[22:55] <Whisky_> How do I install Ubuntu from a USB flash drive? I don't have a DVD so I'll download Ubuntu on to the usb drive and install from there.
[22:55] <bazhang> Whisky_, unetbootin
[22:55] <greyhatsalafi> Whisky_ yeah
[22:55] <greyhatsalafi> unetbootin
[22:55] <Dthibault> Use UnetBootIn
[22:55] <greyhatsalafi> easiest solution
[22:56] <greyhatsalafi> it's in the software center as well
[22:56] <bazhang> unetbootin.sourceforge.net Whisky_
[22:56] <Whisky_> Thank you everyone :)
[22:56] <Whisky_> much appreciated
[22:56] <g0r33k> Hi everyone, When I read about ubuntu I was given the impression that when updates were installed it was not required to restart the computer. After update installion though, I seem to get a prompt asking to restart?
[22:57] <bazhang> g0r33k, security update, like kernel need it
[22:57] <guntbert> g0r33k: usually only when a new kernel was installed
[22:57] <g0r33k> oh I see
[22:57] <g0r33k> thanks
[22:58] <Habstinat> soreau: Ok, so now it's mounted with the special options to /home/habs/PSP/mount. The filesystem is still read only though. I can't do anything as a user, but when I run Nautilus as root I can at least try to change the permissions before I get the same error I was getting earlier.
[22:58] <Whisky_> Anyone have any idea what "Kubuntu 10.10 HDMedia" is?
[22:58] <Whisky_> Got my answer, sorry :)
[22:59] <Habstinat> soreau: Sorry, I have to go. Thanks for all your help. I'll stay idle on the chat if you come up with something.
[22:59] <soreau> Habstinat: You'll just have to google. ISTR having a similar issue when messing with a PSP, though it's been awhile. Hope you figure it out
[22:59] <eeto> anybody?
[23:00] <abountu> hi, how can I check if polipio is running ok? torbutton in firefox is saying it cant reach my proxy
[23:00] <Whisky_> Can anyone help me with this question: What would you recommend? 10.04 LTS or 10.10?
[23:00] <extra11> hi friends
[23:00] <dotlegend> 10.04 LTS
[23:00] <extra11> how do I get my os version
[23:00] <extra11> distro version
[23:01] <arand_> extra11: lsb_release -a
[23:01] <soreau> Whisky_: It all depends on your purposes
[23:01] <phix> hi extra11
[23:01] <soreau> Whisky_: What will you be using ubuntu for?
[23:01] <truppel> user___: The support.mozilla.com page basically said to check that I was running the most recent Flash and Firefox versions. I am.  That doesn't seem to be the issue.
[23:01] <Whisky_> Facebook/email etc. Not really a professional computer or anything. Just the average usage.
[23:01] <extra11> thanks arand, appreciate it
[23:02] <phix> I am having stability issues with 10.10 so if you are using ubuntu for a server (which you shouldn't be, you should use Debian Squeeze :)) then I wold suggest 10.04
[23:02] <ndxtg> does anyone know what command to check if a DVD disc presents in the DVDrive?
[23:02] <phix> ndxtg: mount
[23:02] <abountu> clicking the test button on torbutton in firefox gave me this error message, any idea how can I check if polipo is running properly: "Tor proxy test: Local HTTP Proxy is unreachable. Is Polipo running properly?"
[23:02] <abountu> tfh@tfeh:~$ sudo /etc/init.d/polipo start
[23:02] <abountu> Starting polipo: polipo.
[23:03] <arand_> Whisky_: LTS is if you want things to stay the same for a long time, regular release if you want newer things and intend on upgrading to a new ubuntu version every couple of years or so.
[23:03] <illriginal> Can someone assist me? I just upgraded Ubuntu to 10.10 and it appears that Grub2 might need to be re-installed as I get an error: the symbol 'grub_xputs' not found. I'm trying to follow a guide using the Live CD (8.10) to mount my drive and install Grub.
[23:03] <user____> truppel: yea, are you?
[23:03] <ndxtg> phix: do you know which field? I typed it before but only USB fields present, not for DVD/CD disc
[23:04] <truppel> user___: I'm running the most recent flash and firefox.
[23:04] <arand_> Whisky_: *Every year or so
[23:04] <phix> ndxtg: so try and mount it, if you get an error message then there is nothing in there.  However ubuntu usually automounts so you will see it in mount
[23:05] <kitty_> illriginal can you elaborate what point you're @ during boot when that happens?
[23:05] <heras> Hi. I'm on 10.10 with gnome. When I want to resize a window by dragging the mouse, there's about 1 or 2 pixels at the edge where I can resize it. Can I increase this more pixels?
[23:05] <phix> ndxtg: if you see nothing in mount either the automount feature broke or there is nothing in the drive
[23:05] <Whisky_> phix: any insight into usability speeds? I want it to be fast :/ I believe it slowed down when I upgraded to 10.10 from 10.04
[23:05] <siddhion> hi. i lost the top bar of all my applications and nautilus windows so now i can't grab them anymore. i am using global menu on 10.04. how to get the top bars back on all apps and windows?
[23:05] <illriginal> kitty_ i get that error typically when Grub gives me a list (Windows 7, Ubuntu, mem test)
[23:05] <illriginal> at boot*
[23:05] <phix> Whisky_: What slowed down?  what are you using ubuntu for? desktop? server? pr0n?
[23:06] <Whisky_> phix: Lol desktop :)
[23:06] <arand> heras: You can use alt+middlemouse to grab and resize anywhere on the window
[23:06] <phix> ok, gaming? office? general interneting?
[23:06] <Whisky_> phix: General internet mainly
[23:06] <truppel> If my flash/firefox problems aren't something that's happening to a lot of people, I'll just try some detective work with setup I have. Maybe it's a plugin conflict or something.
[23:07] <truppel> user___: Thanks for trying to help.
[23:07] <phix> Is it just me or does CTRL+ALT+D, highlight and middle mouse button not work any more?
[23:07] <Whisky_> phix: Boot times etc. increased when I upgraded to 10.10 from 10.04
[23:07] <phix> Different key bindings or were these features dropped?
[23:07] <joegiampaoli> !away
[23:07] <heras> Hey, thats great arand :). Nice to know. But can I also increase the margin at the border?
[23:07] <hihihi100> can you help me to install a java6.24 bin file in my ubuntu 10.10? I have tried this: http://paste.ubuntu.com/579511/
[23:07] <phix> Whisky_: ok, perhaps it is loading more stuff, or there is a service  that hasnt been configured correctly that is lagging at startup
[23:07] <eeto> so?
[23:08] <[TK]D-Fender> Whisky_: 10.10 has a newer kernel, more supported devices because of it, etc.  Seems to work great for most people, so I'd go with taht and keep an eye on 11.04 on the horizon
[23:08] <Whisky_> Okay, thanks. Going for 10.10 :)
[23:08] <phix> hihihi100: what's wrong with the java that comes with ubuntu?
[23:09] <illriginal> Whisky... make sure you prepare yourself for grub to break ~.~
[23:09] <Whisky_> illriginal: WHY!!?? :|
[23:09] <hihihi100> phix; i dont know: i just installed freenet, and upon using it for the 1st time, it said that  should download that version of java from their official site
[23:09] <illriginal> just upgraded and now I can't boot into windows or linux
[23:09] <phix> I still don't understand why grub2 is being used now, grub1 was so simple to setup and install
[23:09] <Whisky_> illriginal: Lol I already have 10.10 but it screwed up so I'm doing a fresh install :)
[23:09] <greyhatsalafi> install ubuntu-restricted-extras
[23:09] <illriginal> and the commands I'm using seem to be useless since I'm using 8.10 live cd
[23:10] <greyhatsalafi> and install sun-java6-jre
[23:10] <illriginal> ah nice lol
[23:10] <greyhatsalafi> works the best
[23:10] <greyhatsalafi> at least for minecraft :)
[23:10] <kitty_> illriginal you want to make a bootable cd that will load your ubuntu kernel instead of the live cd?
[23:10] <arand> heras: I think different themes define different widths, but I don't know how.
[23:10] <[TK]D-Fender> illriginal: Every version hsa some person with some sort of problem.  Why the doom-speak for your situation?
[23:10] <phix> hihihi100: I see, well if you are going to install a third party java I recommend installing it under /opt/java or something like that.  Then use the alternates application to set it as the default java bin
[23:10] <RubenAlonzo> Hello Everyone, so far so good on my eMachines em250 netbook (little 10.1 inch screen) after dumping that Windows 7 Starter and installing Ubuntu 10.10 netbook remix.
[23:10] <phix> [TK]D-Fender: !!! How's it going?
[23:11] <Whisky_> Will the download that I'm making now for 10.10 come with the latest KDE or will I have to upgrade?
[23:11] <[TK]D-Fender> PhiStill breathing.... hows life down south?
[23:11] <illriginal> because I have a feeling using 8.10 live CD is pretty much useless right now for me to fix Grub2.
[23:11] <AnubArack> How can I get playmputh-manager to run on amd64 ? (I get Wrong architecture 'i386' )
[23:11] <[TK]D-Fender> Whisky_: Ubuntu comes with Gnome, you can add KDE after or download kubuntu instead
[23:11] <kitty_> illriginal, you have a second computer so we can walk you through fixing it or is this your only computer?
[23:12] <RubenAlonzo> not bad here in south texas, but weather gonna get way hot now, we live in Laredo, TX
[23:12] <[TK]D-Fender> illriginal: considering grub2 came with 9.10+ I think that should answer itself.
[23:12] <rww> Whisky_: 10.10 includes KDE 4.5.1. There's a backport PPA linked from http://kubuntu.org that contains 4.6.1.
[23:12] <illriginal> i have a second computer. ill log on with it.
[23:12] <Whisky_> thank you.
[23:12] <heras> arand: Ok, I didn't know it may be theme dependent. I'll check it out, thanks.
[23:12] <illriginal> right TK.
[23:12]  * kitty_ waits
[23:12] <[TK]D-Fender> illriginal: What you've admitted is you don't actually have the right tool for the job.  Looks like download time for you...

[23:16] <illmortal> lol... kitty_ what other command do I use rather than gedit.
[23:16] <Matthew11_> answeme: Wrong solution. After an update it will regenerate the wrong one.

[23:17] <NicolasBahamonde> Does AnyOne Knows how to install a soundcard driver in Ubuntu????
[23:17] <MightyTweek> NicolasBahamonde, normally any devices in the system should just work without having to install anything. Are you having problems?
[23:17] <NicolasBahamonde> Yes
[23:17] <answerme> Matthew11_ well you'd have to look inside those scripts in /etc/grub.d/
[23:17] <NicolasBahamonde> I'm having problems with Conexant Smart Audio.
[23:18] <MightyTweek> NicolasBahamonde, What is happening exactly?
[23:18] <illmortal> menu.lst does not exist.
[23:18] <illmortal> kitty_ ^
[23:18] <crlcan81> I don't know if anyone answered this while I was asleep, but whenever I run a second flash window/tab in firefox the first goes gray like when plugins first load. I'm using Adobe's flash plugin on Ubuntu 10.10 64 bit.
[23:18] <Matthew11_> answerme: That is what I afraied of. I have done, but i hav'nt found the related part of the scripts.
[23:19] <NicolasBahamonde> The Input/Output jacks are not working properly. The Soundcard doesn't know when the sound must get in/out from.
[23:19] <cal_> trying to get X working after messing it up trying to get dual monitors working. since unplugged the other monitor, still getting this --  NVIDIA: Failed to load the fb module.
[23:19] <NicolasBahamonde> Example: When I connect the headphones, sound goes out from speakers
[23:19] <illmortal> kitty_ fdisk -l : www.pastebin.com/ehhjzkuu
[23:19] <NicolasBahamonde> And not from Headphones.
[23:20] <answerme> Matthew11_ hmm give me sec ill look
[23:20] <Matthew11_> answerme: Additionally, the blkid not listed the root partition :(
[23:20] <MightyTweek> NicolasBahamonde, have you tried changing the output under Sound Preferences?
[23:21] <Logan_> !stages | cal_
[23:21] <NicolasBahamonde> I tried it, but the screen prefs. are so basic.
[23:22] <answerme> Matthew11_ link me /etc/default/grub
[23:22] <MightyTweek> NicolasBahamonde, I'm not sure what you mean. On my computer, when you go to the Output tab, it lets you select which jack to output on. Are you not seeing that?
[23:23] <Matthew11_> answerme: http://paste.ubuntu.com/579517/
[23:23] <yuzodo> RubenAlonzo, hey
[23:23] <NicolasBahamonde> No, I can see only an option: Analog Stereo Audio
[23:24] <answerme> Matthew11_ well not there
[23:24] <illmortal> So you were saying, [TK]D-Fender... I need to download and burn 10.10 onto a disc for better compatibility?
[23:25] <illmortal> I can't trouble shoot this issue with 10.10 commands on a 8.04 live disc.. lol im going no where.
[23:25] <[TK]D-Fender> illmortal: If you want to manipulate a grub2 system, I'm saying it'd be smart to use a disc that even came with it...
[23:26] <NicolasBahamonde> What's happening with the Driver, is it a generic driver?
[23:26] <illmortal> lol ya I can't even try to download/install grub via terminal right now.
[23:26] <illmortal> ill just go download the latest distro
[23:26] <cal_> ubottu: I ran apt-get install -reinstall nvidia-current ... would that cause the problem you mention?
[23:27] <MightyTweek> NicolasBahamonde, you might want to do a search on your particular model of sound card/computer and see if anyone has encountered the same issue. You don't need to install a driver though, since sound is working
[23:27] <RubenAlonzo> immortal, i just saw your last post as i came in, what i did was install 10.10 ubuntu from a pendrive. i apologize if thats not the answer you were looking for

[23:29] <skxx> so i'm trying to get a printer working.  it's an hp deskjet 1000 j110 series, and i'm running ubuntu mav. i installed the printer through System -> Administration -> Printing -> Add and everything went alright, except when i went to print a test page the printer did absolutely nothing.  it shows up in the print queue as a completed job, but when i click print test page it just stacks another (apparently completed) job.  any clue what i'm doing wr
[23:30] <kitty_> illmortal do you have a cd burner?
[23:30] <answerme> anyone knows an app that can communicate with linux socket like netcat communicates with tcp ports?
[23:31] <ndxtg> "apt-get install gnome-volume-manager" - does not work? any idea?
[23:31] <kitty_> illmortal, you'll want to make a bootable cdrom that has your ACTUAL kernel is loaded and uses your actual filesystem
[23:31] <kitty_> illmortal, i don't know the specifics for grub2, but i'm familiar with a normal grub installation
[23:31] <skxx> ndxtg: what error message is apt-get giving you?
[23:31] <RubenAlonzo> does anyone have an installed sd card reader on their computer? mine wont recognize the sd card slot
[23:31] <RubenAlonzo> its the only thing not working on my computer
[23:32] <NicolasBahamonde> Can I do one more question?
[23:32] <ndxtg> skxx: Package gnome-volume-manager is not available, but is referred to by another package (Ubuntu 10.4 Lucid Server with Gnome-core)
[23:32] <MightyTweek> NicolasBahamonde, yes, of course. You don't need to ask to ask a question.
[23:32] <skxx> ndxtg: use synaptic and search for it. there might be another package that you should use instead
[23:32] <NicolasBahamonde> Well, here it goes...
[23:33] <kitty_> illmortal, 'mkisofs -R -b boot/grub/stage2_eltorito -no-emul-boot -boot-load-size 4 -boot-info-table -o grub.iso iso' and "iso" is the directory where you put all the files you'll need (you can just copy /boot to there or use /boot instead i don't care)
[23:33] <drc> RubenAlonzo: yes...SD Host Controller: Ricoh Co Ltd R5C822 SD/SDIO/MMC/MS/MSPro Host Adapter  worked out of the box :)
[23:33] <NicolasBahamonde> I'm having some problems with make and makeinstall. What are the correct steps for a good terminal installation?
[23:33] <AzoteLogiko> NicolasBahamonde, try: apt-get install nameofprogram
[23:33] <MightyTweek> NicolasBahamonde, what is it you are trying to install?
[23:34] <ndxtg> skxx: do you have any suggest about any package that automounts CD/DVD when insert? Im looking for one
[23:34] <douglarret> how do you install nvidia drivers when you cannot get display on ubuntu 10.10?
[23:34] <AzoteLogiko> or try ./make
[23:34] <NicolasBahamonde> Firstly, I was practicing with TuxKart classic to learn.
[23:34] <NicolasBahamonde> But I have problems with it.
[23:34] <skxx> ndxtg: there should be a setting for that. tink around in administration to find it. (i'm not quite sure where it is)
[23:34] <Tesa1> well everyone, see ya tomorrow ;)
[23:35] <ndxtg> skxx: ok thy
[23:35] <skxx> ndxtg: np man
[23:35] <answerme> NicolasBahamonde: if you're compiling from sources there usually is a file called README or INSTALL that explains all necessary steps and requirement
[23:35] <douglarret> how do you boot ubuntu to console login?
[23:35] <MightyTweek> NicolasBahamonde, unless you are doing development, I don't recommend installing software using make/makeinstall. It's much better to search for the program in Synaptic and install from there
[23:35] <answerme> NicolasBahamonde: unless its not available there
[23:35] <skxx> so i'm trying to get a printer working.  it's an hp deskjet 1000 j110 series, and i'm running ubuntu mav. i installed the printer through System -> Administration -> Printing -> Add and everything went alright, except when i went to print a test page the printer did absolutely nothing.  it shows up in the print queue as a completed job, but when i click print test page it just stacks another (apparently completed) job.  any clue what i'm doing wr
[23:35] <NicolasBahamonde> I've followed correctly, but I get scared when I see "make" errors.
[23:36] <answerme> that means that probavly u dont have some required packages for compilation
[23:36] <answerme> NicolasBahamonde: that means that probavly u dont have some required packages for compilation
[23:36] <answerme> NicolasBahamonde: nothing to be scared of it wont break anything
[23:37] <NicolasBahamonde> How can I know what packages are needed?
[23:37] <answerme> NicolasBahamonde: they're listed in readme or installing file :)
[23:38] <NicolasBahamonde> ok.
[23:38] <AnubArack> How can I get plymouth-manager to run on amd64 ? (I get Wrong architecture 'i386' )
[23:38] <NicolasBahamonde> Thanks.
[23:38] <answerme> NicolasBahamonde: sometimes the hint is also in make errors
[23:38] <answerme> NicolasBahamonde: if it says that something is missing try looking fo it in synaptic
[23:39] <NicolasBahamonde> OK
[23:39] <answerme> NicolasBahamonde: also install dev packages, theyre mandatory for compiling sources
[23:40] <answerme> anyone knows an app that can communicate with linux socket like netcat communicates with tcp ports?
[23:40] <answerme> something like telnet to linux socket
[23:41] <NicolasBahamonde> OK, thanks.
[23:41] <NicolasBahamonde> Good bye, I'll come when I have more qquestions.
[23:41] <Far^Side> is there an easy way to fix filenames with wrong character encodings? I have some files with iso-8559-1 filenames, witch is problematic in e.g. Midnight Commander on an UTF-8 system.
[23:42] <daftykins> Far^Side: is it on a separate file system? i had issues with mounting my file server over SMB, so i mounted it as UTF-8 and now they display correctly
[23:43] <Far^Side> daftykins, no, it's on a local ext3 filesystem. (Sometimes copying files from Windows with WinSCP gives this problem)
[23:43] <skxx> so i'm trying to get a printer working.  it's an hp deskjet 1000 j110 series, and i'm running ubuntu mav. i installed the printer through System -> Administration -> Printing -> Add and everything went alright, except when i went to print a test page the printer did absolutely nothing.  it shows up in the print queue as a completed job, but when i click print test page it just stacks another (apparently completed) job.  any clue what i'm doing wr
[23:44] <gakhan> how to make METACITY to run automatically on startup??
[23:45] <liminal> is anyone here familiar with how AMD multicore processors work?
[23:45] <ent0mbed> anyone here ever mess with booting on an EFI machine?
[23:45] <W3ird_N3rd> skxx, parallel or USB printer?
[23:45] <daftykins> Far^Side: hmm, not filenames with accent characters and so on then?
[23:45] <W3ird_N3rd> liminal, how they work? I'm not sure you'll find AMD engineers here
[23:45] <answerme> lol
[23:45] <liminal> im monitoring my cores and 2 are maxed and the other 2 are idol.. is that how it should
[23:45] <crlcan81> I'm not familiar with how they work but I do have one :P
[23:46] <Matthew11_> ok, I have solved my problem: Add the root partition to the /etc/blkid.tab file. The partition type must be ext2 even if you use ext[34], then run update-grub2. The generation is correct now.
[23:46] <Far^Side> daftykins, norwegian characters like Æ, Ø, and Å
[23:46] <liminal> and ive got applications crashing all over the shop
[23:46] <skxx> W3ird_N3rd: it's a usb printer
[23:46] <crlcan81> Usually I have one maxed if something really important or huge is going on.
[23:46] <crlcan81> otherwise they never max.
[23:46] <Polah> Liminal: Perhaps affinity is being set to two cores only
[23:46] <W3ird_N3rd> liminal, you need more multithreaded software probably
[23:46] <answerme> liminal: last i heard there wasnt many applications that could support 4 cores
[23:47] <W3ird_N3rd> skxx, what happens when you look at dmesg before and after plugging in the USB cable?
[23:47] <crlcan81> they're nice to have though, aren't they? Just for the sheer 'geek' factor?
[23:47] <daftykins> Far^Side: ah, i wonder if WinSCP has some character encoding settings
[23:47] <skxx> W3ird_N3rd: lemme check
[23:47] <W3ird_N3rd> liminal, you could probably pretty much max them using x264 or so
[23:48] <W3ird_N3rd> or run four 1080p movies without hardware acceleration
[23:48] <Far^Side> daftykins, yes, I know that. But the problem is that I have some files spread around my harddrives with wrong character encodings, and I'm looking for an easy way to find and fix them...
[23:48] <Far^Side> s/files/filenames/
[23:48] <daftykins> Far^Side: oh ok, i misunderstand then. sorry.
[23:48] <hihihi100> about:plugins does not work in firefox, whats is the exact command? NOT UBUNTU TERMINAL

[23:49] <liminal> W3ird_N3rd, what is x264
[23:49] <W3ird_N3rd> h.264 encoder
[23:49] <W3ird_N3rd> !google x264
[23:50] <liminal> im not saying the application are multithread, im saying the cpu is maxing out and crashing the apps
[23:50] <hihihi100> daftykins, i was following https://sites.google.com/site/easylinuxtipsproject/java#TOC-HOW-TO-FOR-32-BIT-UBUNTU
[23:50] <hihihi100> final check section
[23:50] <W3ird_N3rd> liminal, your CPU is not crashing apps

[23:51] <induz> Drupal5 or Drupal6 >>
[23:51] <W3ird_N3rd> liminal, if all your applications are crashing (not just one), try memtest
[23:51] <liminal> tested the mem.. all clear
[23:51] <W3ird_N3rd> and check your power supply.. and so on. It's probably a hardware problem
[23:51] <liminal> changed the mem any way.. same problem
[23:51] <hihihi100> daftykins, lol, thx
[23:52] <liminal> its an expensive psu.. tested the voltage.. all clear
[23:52] <daftykins> hihihi100: my pleasure ^_^
[23:52] <daftykins> liminal: i find it hard to believe apps would crash just because the processor's being taxed!
[23:52] <W3ird_N3rd> or could be a driver problem. any case, which or how many cores on your CPU are being used doesn't crash apps.
[23:52] <gregL> liminal, What video card do you have?
[23:52] <neuro_damage> what's the best way to setup an nvidia card for Xorg
[23:53] <daftykins> neuro_damage: which Ubuntu, which card and gaming or not?

[23:54] <daftykins> neuro_damage: ah laptop, you could get the latest from the website if you're good with command line so happy to stop X and restart it, otherwise just use the nvidia-current package from hardware drivers
[23:54] <soreau> How to enable the icons in system menu?
[23:54] <gregL> liminal, If using a nvidia install vdpau and the video will be off loaded to the Graphics card,and it won't spike your cpu..
[23:55] <liminal> actually im on an ati now
[23:55] <liminal> basiclly all apps

[23:56] <liminal> yeah I find flash websites crash more than none flash ones
[23:56] <gregL> liminal, Ati won't cut it..They don't have off loading..
[23:56] <neuro_damage> daftykins: cheers
[23:57] <liminal> but my current version of google chrome flash isnt working.. and it still crashes
[23:57] <soreau> sagaci: What's the key?
[23:57] <W3ird_N3rd> gregL, irrelevant, Flash for Linux doesn't offload anything
[23:57] <soreau> sagaci: I know it's some gconf key to change, just never can remember which
[23:57] <Stryker> is it possible to have 2 monitors, one on one nvidia card, and another on an ati card?
[23:57] <W3ird_N3rd> liminal, how does it crash?
