Ampelbeingratnam11: is it your first install of postfix? if yes, run 'sudo dpkg --configure postfix'00:02
Icderionim getting a error on loading the os after installing it with the error gave up waiting for root device00:02
cal_gdm just keeps cycling back to the login prompt after entering my user/pass .. how do i track down this problem any suggestions?? thanks!!00:02
gratnam11yeah00:03
W3ird_N3rdskxx, is it very new? (2010 or newer) it might not be supported yet, or you may need backports. Is it old? check all the printer settings, black/white feeder etc00:03
gratnam11but don't i have to do supdo aptitude install postfix first00:03
jribcal_: create a new user and see if it happens there00:03
gratnam11can i control d out where i am right now00:03
Icderionim getting a error on loading the os after installing it with the error gave up waiting for root device00:04

W3ird_N3rdtesting, install more memory00:04
gratnam11clt d clt c ctl z00:04
gratnam11what do i do00:04
W3ird_N3rdliminal, you crashed it that quickly?00:04
liminalno that was just on startup.. it hasnt crashed00:04
testingW3ird_N3rd: uhm ... I dont know if that is possible. =)00:04
W3ird_N3rdwhy not?00:05
W3ird_N3rdno money? rob a bank!00:05
cal_jrib: nope, that worked. how do i get my original account working though? lol00:05
testingW3ird_N3rd: No it is maxed out already00:05
skxxW3ird_N3rd: it's fresh out of the box, but it seems to be supported from what i've hear00:05
skxxheard*00:05
W3ird_N3rdtesting, how much you got?00:05
testing2GB00:05
W3ird_N3rdmemory I mean, not money00:05
jribcal_: check ~/.xsession-errors on the problem account00:06
W3ird_N3rdthat shouldn't get maxed out so quickly. You run heavy apps?00:06
testingbrowser and qt creator00:06
skxxW3ird_N3rd: i got it working using the designjet 110 driver, as someone said on openprinting.org.  thanks for the tip, man.00:07
W3ird_N3rddon't know qt creater00:07
testinggcc is a real hog00:07
W3ird_N3rdyw skxx :)00:07
Seppozwhere can i read how to make my own deb package?00:07
W3ird_N3rdSeppoz, try checkinstall00:07
W3ird_N3rdthere are many ways00:07
jrib!packaging | Seppoz00:07
ubottuSeppoz: The packaging guide is at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/PackagingGuide - See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuDevelopment/NewPackages for information on getting a package integrated into Ubuntu - Other developer resources are at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuDevelopment - See also !backports00:07
W3ird_N3rd^^ that's more informative00:08
jahmanm huse are you their00:08
W3ird_N3rdtesting, generally, if you have a low-spec machine you can consider installing xubuntu or lubuntu, but that's not the case here. If you run memoryhoggers, wel.. you just need enough memory00:08
testing2GB is nothing these days00:08
W3ird_N3rdnot much you can do about that00:08
W3ird_N3rdyou could get a RAM-drive and put your swap on that, but you're probably better off getting a new mainboard that supports more memory00:09
tvonIs the notify-osd bubble supposed to go blurry when I hover over it with the mouse?00:09
jribtvon: it's supposed to get out of your way00:09
W3ird_N3rdtesting, I still run Lubuntu on a laptop that has 384MB memory. I even have a laptop running Ubuntu on 384MB, but that's sluggish when you open a webpage or 200:09
cal_jrib: thanks man! that file had what i needed. problem solved!00:10
testingI need it till kill off some program or something to free up memory. Not just stalling everything.00:10
tvonjrib: would going blurry be it's way of getting out of my way?00:10
jribtvon: hmm, I don't know.  I haven't used standard gnome in a while.  For me it just disappears but I'm not using compiz and all that fancy stuff00:10
PolahW3ird_N3rd: Surely if you're putting the swap on a RAM disk then it's pointless to have it?00:10
tvonjrib: okay, thanks00:10
testingW3ird_N3rd: how is that possible gcc uses 300MB+ whenever i compile00:10
W3ird_N3rdPolah, why?00:11
jribtvon: you can ask the channel again about what behavior is expected on standard gnome.  Surely, someone can tell you :)00:11
PolahW3ird_n3rd: It'd be a part of the RAM itself and thus putting a swap there would be unecessary since it would be used anyway00:12
testingand the browser easily takes 800MB00:12
W3ird_N3rdI see what you mean but I meant a "disk" that has DIMM slots and a SATA connector00:12
W3ird_N3rdit's a different "ramdisk"00:12
W3ird_N3rdputting swap in your memory would indeed be pointless00:12
PolahOh00:13
PolahWell then why not just put it on a normal hard drive? The maximum transfer speed would still be the same00:13
W3ird_N3rdslow random access00:13
PolahI suppose00:14
=== usar is now known as pyus
W3ird_N3rdPolah, besides, you could have something that has DIMM slots and a PCIe connector00:14
W3ird_N3rdtesting, browser taking 800MB is pretty normal if you have some tabs open00:15
testingyeah i know00:15
testingand it is horrible00:15
W3ird_N3rdbut in the end you have to make a choice: buy more memory (and possibly new mainboard), install lighter software (maybe less features) or use less applications at the same time00:16
W3ird_N3rdyou can't have it all00:16
testingsomeone should make a browser which focuses on low memory consumption instead of speed speed speed00:16
UbuntuDaveanyone got G13 to work correctly yet? i cant get G15daemon to start...00:16
liminalokay made it crash00:17
W3ird_N3rdchromium in my experience is pretty fast on a low-memory laptop00:17
liminalnothing came up in the terminal00:17
W3ird_N3rdso maybe install chromium, testing?00:17
testingi would like the operating system to do something smart instead ... i dont want the computer to lock up ... if it is slow that is ok ...00:17
drctesting: Midori?00:17
W3ird_N3rdit locks up?00:17
W3ird_N3rdtesting, do you have a swap partition that's big enough?00:17
RubenAlonzodoes anyone know how to make Pidgin automatically come to this channel please? At the moment when in start it, i have to fish around for it.00:18
testingI dont have a swap partition.00:18
W3ird_N3rdwell there's your problem!00:18
testing?00:19
xanguaRubenAlonzo: add it to your buddy list and put it to autojoin00:19
testingwhy would a swap partition solve this problem?00:19
W3ird_N3rdswap partition is used to put stuff on the hard drive that would otherwise go into memory, when the system runs out of memory00:19
RubenAlonzothank you, xangua00:19
W3ird_N3rdif you don't have a swap partition and the computer runs out of memory, it crashes00:19
testingehhh? no00:19
UbuntuDaveanyone tell me the logitech channel?00:19
Random832W3ird_N3rd: no, it starts randomly killing processes00:20
liminalW3ird_N3rd, i have both chrome and chromium00:20
liminalthey both crash.. does does FF00:20
Random832probably starting with your web browser and X, since IIRC it targets the ones with the most memory00:20
W3ird_N3rdRandom832, not my experience. I've been rebooting a laptop several times after opening too many webpages when I forgot to set up swap00:20
Random832anyway you can get the same effect from running out of swap00:20
testingif it runs out of memory, it should start telling the applications that there is no more memory00:20
Random832W3ird_N3rd: turn overcommit off00:20
W3ird_N3rdaltough Random832, I have to admit that was an old Ubuntu00:20
W3ird_N3rdmight be different now00:20
Random832testing: the problem is the way the fork() function works00:21
Random832it doesn't know for sure that a program is going to _actually use_ memory that's copy-on-write00:21
Random832so there's no explicit allocation action in those cases00:21
Random832windows doesn't have this problem because it doesn't have fork00:21
testingRandom832: yeah, it is the same way with malloc i think00:22
RubenAlonzois 2 gigs of ram sufficient for ubuntu 10.0 netbook? i currently have 1 gig and everything works but its my first linux distro computer and i want to have the best experience possible.00:22
Random832you create a process and specify the new exe for th process all as one action00:22
W3ird_N3rdRandom832, I've reinstalled that laptop ages ago so I don't have the problem anymore. Wouldn't want it to kill my browser and X anyway00:22
testingit gives the appklication a pointer but doesnt allocate it until the app actually writes to it00:22
Random832W3ird_N3rd: i nver said it was a good thing00:22
Random832but it still depends on how much memory you have00:22
testingit is a bad system00:22
fisch246how do you upgrade to a newer version of grub?00:22
Random832i mean, it's not like having swap will save you if you run out of swap00:22
Random8321GBram+1GBswap isn't better than 2GBram00:22
RubenAlonzoRandom,  i currently only have 1 gig but my little netbook is upgradable to 2 gigs max.00:23
W3ird_N3rdRubenAlonzo, 2GB is enough for web browsing/mail/IM00:23
W3ird_N3rdmay be low for image-editing, video-editing and gaming00:23
RubenAlonzothank you W3ird00:23
DiamondciteRubenAlonzo: Depends on what you run with it.. I stared out with 1GB, but upgraded to 1.5GB and I find that to be more than enough.00:23
soreauIs there a way to have a root gnome-terminal start when logging in? I tried putting gnome-terminal in /etc/rc.local but it start it as user00:23
testing2Gb with ubuntu is unusable00:23
PolahW3ird_N3rd: For average gaming 2Gb is generally fine, especially with a swap of the same size.00:23
testingwhatever you are running00:23
W3ird_N3rdPolah, agree, depends on your games00:24
testingperhaps pine and lynx ...00:24
testingbut i have my doubts00:24
DiamondciteW3ird_N3rd: With 1.5GB... Web-browsing, flash video, IM, OpenOffice Spreadsheets, VirtualBox VM, Comics reading, video.00:24
RubenAlonzoDiamond, i have a tiny eMachines em250 computer i use just for surfing and watching videos on, but i did order a Crucial 2 gig stick to max it out, it has 250 gig hdd00:24
Photocopy#midori seems inactive...00:25
RubenAlonzoyou know for my forums stuff and the like is what i use it for since the wife is always on FarmVille00:25
testingcrashed my work computer the other day ... 4 GB ram and 8 GB swap ... it ran out of memory ... basically locked up the same way my laptop does not ... this is a reoccurring problem00:25
Photocopyhow can I make midori my default broser?00:25
Photocopybrowser*00:25
DiamondciteRubenAlonzo: Generally I don't feel any pain of memory unless I've been running for over a month without rebooting.00:25
testingdoes now00:25
Photocopymidori itself doesnt seem to offer me the option00:25
UbuntuDavedoes crossover have a irc channel?00:26
Diamondcitetesting: What you do with your system matters alot.. querying an entire DB to put out a PHP page takes alot of memory :)00:26
xanguasystem>preferebces>orefered apps Photocopy00:26
peeps[lappy]i have some text files containing raw SMTP email messages, what would i use to extract attachments from these?00:26
Random832Photocopy: i think there's a default browser setting in system preferences.. don't know, haven't used ubuntu gui in a while00:26
xanguapreffered*00:26
W3ird_N3rdDiamondcite, I run plenty of stuff on low-memory machines, but RubenAlonzo wanted to have the best experience so I was careful in my advice ;)00:26
Photocopythank you xangua00:26
testingit shouldnt lock up in oom situations!!!!!00:26
DiamondciteRubenAlonzo: Okay.. what do you intend to do with your machine? Just to see if it's workable :)00:26
W3ird_N3rdyou can easily do webbrowsing/mail/IM on 512MB but I don't recommend that when somebody asks for "the best experience"00:27
Diamondcite(An Atom N270 can only handle so much before it's out of CPU power instead of memory)00:27
hihihi100does anybody here use OpenBVE?00:27
BajKWhich Intel processor do I need to have the Intel GMA X4500 graphics adqapter on board? is it included with the processor (core i5 i think will have it?) or the mainboard?00:27
RubenAlonzoso far its been a flawless experience, everything works as planned, only thing i cant seem to get recognized is the built in SD Card reader. Also is an external hd supported in Ubuntu? i saw some at bestbuy like the WD Passport elite 500gig ones i was wanting but sure if it works00:27
Death_irc.freenode.org -> #gentoo00:27
=== jack is now known as Guest94848
testingDeath_: ?00:27
BajKok the core i3-540 has dhe gma x450000:28
DiamondciteRubenAlonzo: I can't answer on things like the WD passport.. I tend to buy external USB Harddrive docks and use physical hard drives.00:28
drcRubenAlonzo: Have one of those (WD P 500gig HHD) too, works fine out of the box00:28
W3ird_N3rdtesting, it doesn't matter: if you run out of memory and swap your system is either going to lock up or randomly kill processes, you don't want either00:28
p_resW3ird_N3rd: I used 512MB for years with Ubuntu with no issues.00:28
RubenAlonzoDiamond, any idea how to format usb drives in ubuntu please?00:28
DiamondciteRubenAlonzo: I use gparted for that purpose00:29
testingW3ird_N3rd: i would want the latter ...00:29
jack_^RubenAlonzo, ? what're you trying to do? create a new filesystem?00:29
RubenAlonzothank you Diamond00:29
W3ird_N3rdp_res, I still use Ubuntu on a 384MB laptop with no issues, other than being slow. Lubuntu is fine on 384MB though00:29
RubenAlonzojack, no i wanted to buy an external usb drive but not sure if it would be recognized in ubuntu00:29
testingas it gives you at least some hope of recovery ...00:29
AnubArackhow can i stop a [sudo] password request (until now i just entered wrong one 3 times, there must be a better way)00:29
=== Guest18989 is now known as DarkDevil
DiamondciteAnubArack: ctrl+c00:29
AnubArackty00:29
p_resW3ird_N3rd: I wouldn't use it with anything below 512. Not with GNOME desktop anyway.00:30
W3ird_N3rdtesting, why don't you just set up a swap partition so it does't lock up in the first place?00:30
=== DarkDevil is now known as Guest66309
W3ird_N3rdp_res, agree, Ubuntu on 384MB is indeed slow, but Lubuntu (lxde, not gnome) is pretty ok00:30
bob__840I have redone a 2.1G stick w/ ext4: remove exist part then repart then format00:30
RubenAlonzodoes anyone know when the next release of ubuntu is out? i have 10.10 but i really wish i could hide the side dock on the left as i have a tiny screen00:30
p_resW3ird_N3rd: Yeah I've used LXDE in the past. It's a nice alternative but not for me. ;-)00:30
W3ird_N3rdBut I'm still running ubuntu (with gnome) on a 384MB laptop because I can't upgrade it further and am too lazy for a reinstall00:31
xangua!natty | RubenAlonzo00:31
ubottuRubenAlonzo: Natty Narwhal is the codename for Ubuntu 11.04, due April 28 2011 - Help and support (only) in #ubuntu+1 - Natty is unstable and is not intended for production systems.00:31
p_resW3ird_N3rd: Whatever suits your needs I guess.00:31
W3ird_N3rdp_res, next time I reinstall it I'm going to put lxde on it ;)00:32
p_resFair enough.00:32
aromanhey, how can I uninstall my ATI proprietary drivers from maverick? I want to remove them so I can install the latest ATI drivers (update).00:33
W3ird_N3rdI don't use it very often so it doesn't bother me much :)00:33
[segfault]RubenAlonzo: just fyi, the release numbers are the year and month of the release:  YY.MM00:33
RubenAlonzoi heard the next update will allow the side dock to be moved or hidden. also HOW do i update Ubuntu? do i have to do a clean install of every new version released or is there a way to simply click an application to update current 10.10?00:33
W3ird_N3rdaroman, remove them in synaptic?00:33
testingW3ird_N3rd: i am running a wubi installation and the NTFS stuff is not good for swap performance00:33

W3ird_N3rdRubenAlonzo, if you start typing a nickname you can complete it using the TAB-key ;)00:36
W3ird_N3rdyou didn't think I typed RubenAlonzo every time completely? :)00:37

RubenAlonzodoes anyone use an external usb storage? any problems getting it recognized?00:38
W3ird_N3rdRubenAlonzo, always works flawlessly00:38
RubenAlonzoi meansied a thumbdrive00:38
RubenAlonzoi meant besides a thumbdrive, sorry00:39
p_resRubenAlonzo: I use a 1TB Seagate external usb.00:39
W3ird_N3rdRubenAlonzo, a harddrive?00:39
RubenAlonzop_res, did you have to somehow format it or was it recognized immediately?00:39
W3ird_N3rdalso no problem. On a laptop, you might have trouble if your USB doesn't supply enough power for the harddrive to work00:39
p_resRubenAlonzo: At first plug in I had to reboot once.00:40
RubenAlonzoyes w3ird like a western digital 500 gig usb drive00:40
RubenAlonzoah ok, thank you p_res00:40
W3ird_N3rdRubenAlonzo, did you buy it as an external drive? Or did you put a drive in an external case00:40
p_resRubenAlonzo: It works formatted as both ntfs and ext3/4.00:40
DiamondciteFor me after changing the format of a drive, I had to disconnect and reconnect it00:40
fisch246this is the last thing i need to do and my computer is about as secure as it can get...00:41
W3ird_N3rdRubenAlonzo, if your drive isn't formatted yet, you need to format it first.00:41
W3ird_N3rdan external harddrive off the shelf might be pre-formatted00:41
RubenAlonzoW3ird, i have not bought it yet, i was going to but got cold feet somehow at the last minute because i thought it might not get recognized like my built in card reader, although the thumbdrive gets recognized easily, so maybe i was being over-cautious00:41
RubenAlonzoi'm still new to ubuntu00:42
p_resW3ird_N3rd: I think they're all formatted to ntfs by default these days.00:42
RubenAlonzoand ubuntu is ntfs?00:42
p_resRubenAlonzo: Use the disk utility.00:42
W3ird_N3rdp_res, yeah, that's less than ideal, but it'll still work using ntfs3g00:42
gundasHi all, is there is a suggested method to remove a specific node in an XML file which is over 300mb in size? Platform is Ubuntu Server.00:42
RubenAlonzothanks all00:42
p_resW3ird_N3rd: Yeah I know. But I use Windows a lot still, but I have had mine formatted to ext4 once before.00:43
W3ird_N3rdRubenAlonzo, if you also need to access the drive on a windows machine, you probably want it to be NTFS-formatted00:43
p_resRubenAlonzo: ;-)00:43
wonderfulhello everyone! i have a question:  if i have a ton of zipped files, how do i extract them all into the same directory?  instead of unzipping one by one and having a new directory for each zip file?00:43
wonderfullooking for a terminal command00:43
RubenAlonzoroger that, will do W3ird.  i am highly HIGHLY skilled in windows, but never had a linux distro and only been using it so far for a couple days after install from pendrive00:44
=== raul1979 is now known as raulin1979
W3ird_N3rdRubenAlonzo, if you want the drive NTFS-formatted (and if it isn't out of the box), it's best to format it on Windows00:45
W3ird_N3rdI'm not even sure if you can NTFS-format a drive on Ubuntu at all00:45
p_reswonderful: You just need to use 7z and have all the zip files in the same directory and use *.zip and extract them all to the same output directory.00:46
omacneilyes you can format a drive as NTFS on ubuntu00:46
RubenAlonzowell i was wanting the best option to format in, either fat32 or ntfs for use on my little netbook with ubuntu00:46
p_resRubenAlonzo: Don't use fat32.00:46
RubenAlonzoroger that. NTFS it is! thanks00:47
omacneilsudo aptitude install ntfs-3g00:47
p_resomacneil: It should be installed by default anyway.00:47
W3ird_N3rdRubenAlonzo, don't use fat32, always trouble with partitions >32GB. The best options for your netbook would be ext4, but you won't be able to read it on Windows in that case, so NTFS is probably the best choice00:47
happy_ubuntuerhi. what is name of package under "Applications -> Sound & Video -> Sound Recorder"? i'd like to remove it00:47
omacneilp_res: I believe you are correct00:48
RubenAlonzothanks W3ird00:48
p_resomacneil: ;-)00:48
W3ird_N3rdhappy_ubuntuer, gnome-sound-recorder. But first right-click on "Applications" in the top-left corner of your screen and pick "edit menus"00:49
W3ird_N3rdif you just want to remove it from the menu00:49
W3ird_N3rdactually the application is called gnome-sound-recorder, but that's not the package name..00:50
RubenAlonzobe back shortly, i will see if i can google my way into making my built in  SD Card reader enabled on my netbook00:50

JasonnW3ird_N3rd: lets say i wanna move the file "file" to the location "end" (Which is in the parent dirctory) Can i do mv -r file /home/server/end00:57
hiexpoWhisky_, did you format it firstand what file system did you format it as00:57
omacneil Whisky_: perhaps you did not succeed in creating a boot key, what files are on the disc when you boot from the HD or CD ?00:57

fisch246yea that's what i thought it did... which makes me even more confused...01:04
Yoinxconfused about what fisch?01:04
W3ird_N3rdfisch246, you probably need to share the script so we can be confused about it too. :P01:05
WarwoltWhy is Ubuntu so complicated compared to other OS? :C01:05
W3ird_N3rdWarwolt, it isn't01:05
Yoinxcompared to what other OS?01:05
WarwoltAll I've tried01:05
hiexpoWarwolt, ubuntu is the easiest01:05
YoinxThen you've been trying some weird OS's01:05
edbianWarwolt, It has more choices and therefore more complication.  (Nobody is forcing you to install / configure JACK)01:05
W3ird_N3rdYoinx, do phone OS's count?01:06
* Warwolt is just new and tired of spending over an hour getting a software running only to get the software riddled with problems01:06
YoinxUbuntu is one of the better distro's of linux out there.01:06
edbianWarwolt, Why do you want JACK in the first place?01:06
* Warwolt is going to blame the OS and not is nonadequate knowledge01:06
jack_^damn you. you're blowing up my notifications. :P heh01:06
Warwoltedbian: Because Supercollider uses JACK, apparantly, for its output01:06

Yoinxjust in two separate spots, scroll up01:19
edbianblue112, flash player is pretty intensive.  Is your fan dirty / blocked?01:19
aeon-ltdblue112: 90% of laptops are like that01:19

edbianWarwolt, killall jackd01:22

jgcampbell300ok so sudo addgroup "Domain Admins" dosnt work and sudo addgroup 'Domain Admins' dosnt work ...  even tryed sudo addgroup $Domain Admins$01:22
WarwoltYoinx: Because everything I've been trying to do the last couple of hours I'd have gotten done in 20 minutes on XP01:22
edbianWarwolt, That should kill all processes with that name.  If you run ps -e again you'll see they should all be gone.01:22
applejuiceblue112: as a point of reference, my 1 and a half year old laptop hits 50 to 60 degrees C when I'm watching flash vids. But I'm on crunchbang, and crunchbang is lighter than ubuntu01:22
System_Default_1Well, I think Windows XP is good option for graphical design, rendering and gaming.01:22
edbianblue112, Because adobe wrote a lousy version for linux.01:22
applejuiceweird thing is, i see better flash performance on linux than i do on windows 701:23

ajanthakariyawasYes01:31
Yoinxwhy not ill?01:32
applejuicei'm not on ubuntu, but on crunchbang and windows 7, i get up to 60 degrees max when watching flash vids01:32

jgcampbell300can anyone tell me how to add a user group to ubuntu that has two names ? Domain Admins ?01:32
joe__243hello do you think ubuntu is lame?01:32
Yoinxapple, do you use chrome or firefox with flashaid?01:32
edbianjgcampbell300, What do mean with 2 names?  You want the same group to be called 2 different things?01:32
blue112applejuice, now 75°...01:33
ajanthakariyawasI can surf the net but not with Fire fox01:33
applejuiceYoinx: i use chromium and ive never heard of flashaid. is it good?01:33
Yoinxsupposedly, it helps with the flash CPU use stuff.01:33
System_Default_1jgcampbell300: System > Administration > Users and Groups01:33
applejuiceblue112: you'll have to ask someone else, cause i dont know whats the problem and i dont think 75 degrees is normal/good. :/01:33
jgcampbell300edbian, no ... i need one group called Domain Admins but i am having trouble getting the command right01:33
applejuiceYoinx: I'll check that out, thanks01:33
jgcampbell300System_Default_1, it is server01:33
edbianjgcampbell300, You cannot have spaces in group names.  Do something like this: Domain_Admins01:33
YoinxI know chrome with the 64bit flash lib, Im usually at 70%+ cpu use... just for chrome01:33
Yoinxfirefox/flashaid it's usually around like 30-40%01:34
jgcampbell300edbian, ok thanks for that ... no wonder i couldnt find a way that worked01:34
blue112applejuice, mokay :/01:34
System_Default_1jgcampbell300: Sorry. --A.V-- 0xc0782a.01:34

applejuicetemp is 47 degrees01:34
joe__243hej! finns det nåra svennefanskap her?01:34

joe__243thank ju bye bye  have it good01:41
joe__243 /join #ubuntu-se01:41

joe__243thank ju again bye01:42
Aurigaapplejuice, Yeah I'm sure I could I just didn't put the time into it... Slitaz is proving difficult in a VM too though...01:42
applejuiceAuriga: That's exactly why i didn't try it out yet. it seems like it would take long to set up everything from scratch.01:42
applejuiceAuriga: Never really found out what slitaz was like.01:42
Aurigaapplejuice, Yeah it's in a vm right now, downloading updates, this is my first time with Arch, I like the idea of using a command named Pacman which is why I'm playing with it lol.01:43
=== andrea is now known as Guest27014
Aurigaapplejuice, But it is taking it's time though.01:43
=== Guest27014 is now known as chompiras
applejuiceAuriga: Hahaha, I love your reasoning. :D01:44
illmortal1Does anyone know if the Asus P5Q-E motherboard supports booting off of USB pen drives for Linux? (It does support Windows, that how I got Windows 7 installed onto my machine)01:44
blue112Well, so my CPU is high because of flash :/ ?01:45
blue112can't I say to the fan "cool harder" ?01:45
Aurigaapplejuice, I suggest taking a look at Slitaz also, as there is a major upgrade tonight, so tomorrow there will be a new release bug FREE.01:45
applejuiceblue112: I still feel like theres something else at work though, because a new laptop shouldnt be at 65 degrees evenw ithout flash01:45
applejuiceAuriga: I might just do that if I have the time and can get off my lazy butt, hahaha01:46
AurigaLol.01:46
Aurigaapplejuice, Go set up a VM!01:46
blue112applejuice, it's at 81 now :/01:46
blue112applejuice, how can I see that ?01:46
ajanthakariyawasneil_d yes I can ping01:46
alecbenzerin the middle of upgrading from 10.10 to 11.04 the upgrade seems to have failed somewhere and halted - what's the best course of action for not blowing stuff up?01:47
Yoinxill, if a mobo boots of usb, it boots off USB, it doesnt care what it's booting.01:47
xanguaalecbenzer: then don't upgrade to alpha stuff01:47
applejuiceAuriga: Alright, but only if you promise to try CB again sometime. :P01:47
Yoinx...unless it's an apple motherboard >.>01:47
applejuiceBlue112: See what? Hey, open up your system manager or whatever ubuntu has and see which processes are taking up the most of your cpu resources01:48
blue112Yoinx, was that apple troll :p ?01:48
blue112applejuice, is top ok too :p ?01:48
=== ExplodingPiglets is now known as ForeverAlonedotJ
applejuiceblue112: top is fine. :)01:48
blue112top says : plugin-container => 110% CPU01:48
Yoinxnah, just saying... their mobo's (whatever brand they actually are) would care what they're booting.01:48
blue112 then rythmbox => 8%01:48
=== ForeverAlonedotJ is now known as ForeverAloneJPG
alecbenzerxangua: ie, I'm still in the middle of the upgrade, and ctrl+c-ing warns me that this may leave my system in a broken state. am I just gonna need to deal with that?01:48
blue112Then  xorg and pulseaudio01:48
Aurigaapplejuice, I will tomorrow maybe, I promisish...01:48
blue112with 5% and 3%01:49
jeniaHow do I redirect an error output to a file? When I do: command > file.txt, it only saves output that's not error, but errors it only displays on the screen.01:49
=== ForeverAloneJPG is now known as ExplodingPiglets
applejuiceblue112: so it's plugin-container then. i just looked it up, it has something to do with firefox. kill it for now01:49
applejuiceblue112: and then see what your temp is after that.01:49
blue112applejuice, ok, let's do that.01:49
applejuiceblue112: what are your specs? like processor, ram. gpu?01:49
Aurigaapplejuice, Will posting a link get me kicked?01:49
blue112Killed.01:49
rubin110Is there a way I can have an ubuntu machine get its hostname over DHCP?01:49
applejuiceAuriga: No idea, I'm new to the irc channel, aha.01:50
neil_dajanthakariyawas: that is good.  but I have never had any trouble with firefox, without the trouble being with the internet connection, sorry I no idea what is wrong.01:50
Aurigaapplejuice, Same to irc in general...01:50
soares#ubuntu-br01:50
ubuntu__hy01:50
blue112applejuice, processor is a dual core AMD, 3GB ram, GPU is ATI (argh) with fglrx drivers.01:50
Aurigaapplejuice, Well here is the latest cooking release of Slitaz anyways... http://mirror.slitaz.org/iso/undigest/slitaz-cooking-core.iso01:50

blue112CPU actually is : AMD Athlon(tm) X2 Dual-Core QL-6401:50
xangua!ot | Auriga01:50
ubottuAuriga: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, for all Ubuntu-related support questions. Please use #ubuntu-offtopic for other topics (though our !guidelines apply there too). Thanks!01:50
jeniarubin110: I think you have to do it by DNS server with DHCP assigning the DNS server's address01:51
applejuiceblue112: better specs than my machine. Could it be your gpu thats making your laptop hot?01:51
applejuiceAuriga: Thanks, reading about slitaz right now01:51
blue112applejuice, maybe, then how can I fix it ?01:51
ajanthakariyawasneil_d thanks for your help01:51
blue112applejuice, I'm not even sure what the temp is related to... I'm using sensors.01:51
tohuwWhy don't cd and echo work via sudo?01:51
jeniaHow do I redirect an error output to a file? When I do: command > file.txt, it only saves output that's not error, but errors it only displays on the screen.01:51
applejuiceblue112: sorry, I have no idea how to deal with it. :/ Except for the frustratingly bad answer "make sure drivers are updated"01:52
blue112applejuice, they are :(01:52
Aurigaapplejuice, Sure, just saving you the hassle of going through what I went through with it not working.01:52
applejuiceblue112: whats the temp now that plugin-container is killed?01:52
blue112applejuice, my fan just reduced its speed, and my temp fall down to 60°01:52
applejuiceAuriga: Thanks, but why wasnti it working?01:52
applejuiceblue112: that's still a bit too hot. if windows 7 can run at 40 to 45 without flash, then ubuntu should be close too.01:53
Aurigaapplejuice, Apparently a bug that was never fixed... That's what I was told by a bug tester.01:53
tohuwjenia: Try redirecting stderror. ./your_script 2 > output01:53
applejuiceblue112: maybe try posting in the ubuntu forums?01:53
Aurigaapplejuice, He is the one who gave me that link just now.01:53
blue112applejuice, I don't know then :/01:53
YoinxThe flash one? It's well documented.01:53
blue112applejuice, I don't like forums...01:53
applejuiceAuriga: Ouch, sounds bad. I see that slitaz uses openbox? awesme. :)01:53
YoinxAnd like I said... quite a while ago, your CPU is going to be hot while it's sitting near 100% use.01:53
applejuiceblue112: Why not?01:54
blue112applejuice, how can I see what my sensors values referers to ?01:54
Aurigaapplejuice, That's more than I remember, I haven't ever seen it boot lol.01:54
applejuiceblue112: Whats the name of the program you're using?01:54
blue112applejuice, it's slow, and I should keep watching I have answers01:54
armyantstohuw: they probably built-in's in shell01:54
blue112applejuice, the package is lmsensors and the command is sensors01:54
blue112Is there any other ?01:54
blue11256° now...01:55
monaI did ln -s /usr/share/applications/defaults.list /etc/gnome, trying to make a symlink to that file. Is there any way to recover from that? I don't know what other files where in /etc/gnome before...01:55
jeniatohuw: so, "2" in "2 >" means to redirect stderror?01:55
blue112When I look at it, it decreasing, but when I speak here, it goes to 60°01:55
blue112So I think it won't go lower.01:55
tohuwjenia: yes01:56
gartral_I can't get docky too load the Do addon/plugin/feature01:56
tohuwjenia: http://tldp.org/HOWTO/Bash-Prog-Intro-HOWTO-3.html01:56
Aurigaapplejuice, If you decide to look at Arch there is a page I found that is incredibly useful thusfar.01:57
applejuiceblue112: I don't really understand this stuff. :( Unless someone else here can give you advice, I think you might have to resort to the forums. You can also try posting in the Crunchbang Forums, I'm pretty sure they won't mind trying to help01:57
tohuwjenia: you can also just ./your_script 2>&l to throw all the errors into stdout (the other stuff you're seeing)01:57
applejuiceAuriga: Ooh, link me01:57
jeniatohuw: thanx, is it possible to redirect both: stdout and stderror to a file at the same time? do I need to do something like this?: command > output.txt 2 > error.txt ?01:57
Rogueanyone know if there is a solution to BUG: scheduling while atomic ?01:57
armyantstohuw: but it's not reason it not working :/01:57
blue112applejuice, mkay01:58
* blue112 tries01:58
Aurigaapplejuice, That will get me another warning, then probably kicked...01:58
applejuiceAuriga: ahh, anything I can maybe google to pull up the page?01:58
blue112Anyone here can help me with laptop CPU overheat ? \o/01:58
jeniatohuw: OK, thanx, got it.01:58
Aurigaapplejuice, I just pm'd you.01:58
YoinxYeah blue. Stop using flash in linux... Problem solved :p01:59
Aurigaapplejuice, Or what ever the irc equivalent is...01:59
blue112Yoinx, first of all, I'm a flash developper.01:59
Yoinxat least in ubuntu, it's been a bug for like 2 years now.01:59
tohuwjenia: command &> output.txt01:59
blue112Yoinx, secondly, I'm not using flash for now, and it's still at 60°01:59
blue112Yoinx, it doesn't happen in debian ?01:59
Yoinx60 doesnt sound too bad02:00
Rogueis there a ubuntu in hyperV channel?02:00
blue11260 is kinda hot :/02:00
YoinxDunno, I dont look into much about debian. I just use ubuntu, and know the problem with flash/cpu use has existed for liek 2 years02:00
tohuwRogue: not specifically. Ask your question here, someone may know.02:00
blue112Yoinx, mkay02:00
jeniaYoinx, that's a very bad suggestion to stop using flash on linux. Linux is supposed to be more powerful, then windows, so you should be able and should do anything in linux.02:01
applejuiceBlue112: I'm almost certain it's not a Ubuntu bug since the same packages are used elsewhere and I've never seen temps go up to 85 degrees02:01
Yoinxi know apple said he doesnt have the issue on whatever distro he's using02:01
Gorilla_No_Bakahello everyone...02:01
blue112applejuice, mokay02:01
blue112applejuice, once, it reach 103° then the computer shut down :(02:01
jeniatohuw: thanx, I am reading that howto, you gave me.02:02
RogueI setup Ubuntu Server 10.10 in HyperV, and now I get reoccuring errors saying BUG: scheduling while atomic : swapper (or rsyslogd, or flush).02:02
Da_WreckaI'm having a peculiar issue with Nautilus on my Lucid netbook... I've got a couple of bookmarks set up to shares on my Windows 7 gaming machine. Now, the share works fine, it prompts me for the password and then I'm in, but some of the directories - directories not flagged as hidden, I'll add - won't display. Equally, some of the files in directories that DO show up won't display either.02:02
tohuwjenia: excellent, hth02:02
gartral_jenia: well it's true that *Lnux* is more powerful than anything microsoft can produce, the quality of plugins and other software IN linux is a direct result of the time and talent poured into it.. in the case of Firefox and Chrome, thy're both exceptional.. but Adobe felt there wasn't need too nuild linux-flash as well as they did for windows...02:03
applejuiceblue112: definitely something isnt right.. if you cant find any answers on the forums, try installing crunchbang? It's way faster, more resource efficient, and it'll probably be colder than ubuntu. you'll have to learn to use the terminal more though, but it should be fine02:03
applejuiceblue112: i'm leaving now, but I hope you find your solution soon! :)02:03
Da_WreckaThere seems to be a pattern; The files and directories that show up haven't been modified in Windows 7. The ones that aren't displayed, have.02:03
Yoinxbut here's a search of launchpad for bug reports... https://launchpad.net/+search?field.text=ubuntu+flash+CPU02:03
gartral_[did that get cut off?]02:03
blue112applejuice, I know the terminal, no problem with that02:03

uekixxHello! i have vps and one IP and also a domain, how can i point my domain to my IP? please help me!02:03
applejuiceblue112: hehehe, thats awesome then. :) I'm out!02:04
Da_WreckaAnyone know how to get Nautilus to show the missing files? Oh yeah, I've also checked, and Nautilus is set to show hidden and backup files, not that the missing entries are marked as either.02:04
Gorilla_No_BakaHey guys  i have a problem with ZTE USB Modem FFF1 We have been issued some of thins things and dince they come already set with the username and password (they only work on Apple OS and Windows and it`s really a matter of pluging it in point and click in order to connect to the internet) I thought is gonna be a easy job to get online with my Linux box..02:05
uekixxHello! i have vps and one IP and also a domain, how can i point my domain to my IP? please help me!02:05
Gorilla_No_Bakabut i had no luck so far.. anny ideas02:05
Da_WreckaAs an example: If I navigate to H:\0MULTIMEDIA\VIDEO in Windows Explorer on the Win7 box, everything is fine. Navigate to the Video directory in Nautilus via the Windows Share, and while a directory like GameTrailers.com shows, Youtube does not.02:05
YoinxUek, you need to set it up to point to your IP on your DNS02:05
Gorilla_No_Bakaany ideas on how to make them work on ubuntu02:05
jeniagartral_: I agree, but I cannot just ignore all those flash animations on many websites and a collection of cartoons that I've got in flash, and say, F*it, I will just ignore flash and throw away my cartoon collection and stop watching videos on video sites, such as utube, etc.02:05
uekixxYoinx: im new, how can i configure my DNS02:06
uekixxgimme a tutorial02:06
jeniagartral_: or switch back to windows, just to watch some flash animations02:06
YoinxUsually you would do it through wherever you bought the domain from.02:06
YoinxSince you probably don't have a DNS server.02:07
Da_WreckaAdditional: I can still navigate to hidden directories in Nautilus, IF I type in the name manually into the Location field. But they won't show up in the file list02:07
uekixxcan i just configure it from my VPS Yoinx02:08
uekixxno?02:08
Yoinxdunno, whoever you have your VPS through can probably do it for you, since they typically manage DNS02:08
uekixxi have a cpanel for it02:09
uekixxaight ok i'll try config it02:09
Da_Wreckanobody have any ideas with Nautilus?02:09
YoinxNo idea Da_Wrecka, is it a samba share, or nfs?02:10

aeon-ltd!enter | dustin02:11
ubottudustin: Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line. Don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation!02:11
Da_Wreckasacarlson: And it shouldn't be hiding the entries in question anyway, as they're neither dotfiles, nor marked 'hidden' in Windows.02:11
sacarlsonDa_Wrecka: could be permisions of that user to not see all files maybe start as a sudo user gksudo nautilus  but that can be risky02:12
Da_Wreckasacarlson: The same user account has no trouble viewing the files directly on the Windows box02:12
Yoinxyeah, i'm gonna guess with sacar.02:12
sacarlsonDa_Wrecka: windows box is not the same user02:13

Da_WreckaYoinx: No differences between my Youtube directory and the GameTrailers.com directory. GameTrailers.com shows, Youtube doesn't02:16
brains_so shocked that IRC still lives02:16
Da_Wreckasacarlson: Give me a sec to find out...02:16
dustinlike i mentioned im very new to this  yoinx02:16
YoinxDa_Wrecka,  are you actually checking them with chmod, or just looking at them in the properties window?02:16
Yoinxdustin, shouldnt be too hard, i havent installed it02:17
sabgentonis there a way to check your runleaves of a prog with update-rc.d02:17
sabgentoncan't see it02:17
dustinkk02:17
Da_WreckaYoinx: Using the properties window, since Windows doesn't have chmod02:17
dustinim gonna eat ill talk to you again yoinx02:17
Yoinxwait....02:17
dustinthanks alot aeon btw too02:17
dustinu folks are great02:18
gartral_brains_: ahhaha.. it's not, we're all bots talking like humans :)02:18
ke1hahello all .. i created a ramfs with [ sudo mount -o remount,size=2G /tmp/ngs ] is there an automated way to add this to /etc/fstab at boot time ?02:18
YoinxDa_Wrecka, are you having problems getting to it in windows or ubuntu?02:18
Da_Wreckasacarlson: The directories involved don't show up in a terminal listing02:18
Yoinxand where is this share at02:18
brains_that makes more sense gartral02:18
Da_WreckaYoinx: From Ubuntu. The Windows machine can access every file without issue, it's the Ubuntu one that's having visibility problems02:18
Da_WreckaAs for 'where is the share at', I'm not quite sure what you mean. Can you clarify?02:19
YoinxBut you said you can manually type the path and get to them right?02:19
sacarlsonDa_Wrecka: anything not seen with ls will not be seen with nautilus,  nautilus is just a gui for ls and other utility02:19
Da_WreckaYoinx: Right.02:19
Da_Wreckasacarlson: Which means the problem is lower-level than I thought02:19
YoinxWell, the way you just typed that... I assume the folders are on the windows machine.02:19
sacarlsonDa_Wrecka: sounds like some kind of a samba thing?02:19
Da_WreckaYoinx: They are; I'm trying to access them from the Ubuntu machine over the LAN02:19
Da_WreckaAnd before you ask it's not a signal problem, I'm using CAT5, not wireless.02:20
Frogging101How do I change the link encap of my wireless card from "Ethernet"? It's causing some problems and I'd like to know how to get ubuntu to properly treat my wifi card as a wireless interface.02:20
Da_Wreckasacarlson: Yeah... Okay, so I need to do some more searching I guess02:20
sacarlsonDa_Wrecka: well don't samba mounts show up like anyother with sudo mount ?02:21
Da_Wreckasacarlson: Sort of. I'm using the GVFS fuse daemon here. I couldn't get plain old CIFS mounts to work for some reason02:21
skutr34hey my internal mic isnt working.... it wont record in skype or sound recorder02:22
skutr34please help02:22
sacarlsonDa_Wrecka: I think gvfs still shows up in mount and you should see the directory where it should have put it02:22
Brando1995can someone with good linux knowledge pm me and help with my problem?02:22
Da_Wreckasacarlson: GVFS has a single mount point at /home/dawrecka/.gvfs. I can get to the mounted shares from there.02:23
YoinxDa_Wrecka,  if you can get to them by typing them.. you should be able to do ls -l on them02:23

Brando1995what02:23
skutr34my mic wont record or anything02:24
YoinxI would see if ubuntu is seeing the permissions as the same on them, there might be one missing for listing the files02:24

Brando1995Sorry, so if i am running amd 64 x2 3800 I need to use the amd64 or it wont work right?02:24
Da_WreckaYoinx: Using the VIDEO directory example again, if I do an ls -l from the VIDEO directory, Youtube doesn't show up. If I do ls Youtube -l, then it gives me the Youtube directory listing like it should02:24
brains_#02:24
Da_WreckaBrando1995: No, you can use the x86 kernel too. The Athlon64 supports x64 as well as x86.02:25
Brando1995well which should I use, or does it not matter02:25
bastidrazorBrando1995: how does common sense not help you at all?02:25
sacarlsonDa_Wrecka: mybe the file is still open so maybe try sudo sync and see if that forces it to create the file that is not closed yet02:25
Yoinxthat doesnt make any sense Da02:25
skutr34can anyone help me with my internal mic please it doesnt seem to be working02:25
Da_WreckaYoinx: And yet, that's what's happening02:25
Brando1995I was asking because I had an error with the 64 version, and I didnt know if its like windows you only use 64 bit if you have 4gb of ram02:26
Da_Wreckasacarlson: I did sudo sync, then ls -l; Youtube is still not in the listing02:26
Yoinxtry to just do ls -l VIDEO02:26
Yoinxwich should show the persmissions on all the subdirs (should be the same as doing it from inside the dir.... but you never know)02:26
illmortal1Can anyone assist me in getting Grub2 working? I'm dual booting with Windows 7 and now just upgraded to Ubuntu 10.10. Grub should be installed onto HD0,2. Currently using Ubuntu 10.10 LiveCD02:27
Da_WreckaYoinx: Okay, I think I'm with you now. Let me clarify; My shell is currently navigated, through GVFS, to the VIDEO directory on my Windows machine. GameTrailers.com and Youtube are both subdirectories of VIDEO.02:27
Da_WreckaIf I enter ls -l, Youtube is NOT in the list, but GameTrailers.com is.02:27
Da_WreckaIf I enter ls Youtube -l, then it will list the contents of the Youtube directory just as it should02:27

Ben64Da_Wrecka: after you use a ; in the command, it stops being under sudo02:35

illmortal1blue112, ok I think I see what's going on. MBR should be located on my SDD2, and it is currently mounted on /media/Ubuntu. Problem is that when I do a ls /media/Ubuntu I don't see the files listed on the How To documentation. And I thnk it's because I installed Ubuntu 10.04 LTS through windows a few months ago.. using Wubi, I believe. So that's where I'm stuck.. I'm following the how to you mentioned earlier: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Recovering02:52
Da_WreckaIt doesn't show up in listings but it can still be accessed from the shell02:52

illmortal1I really regret using Wubi too... I would assume it would all be the same.. but I have a feeling that Ubuntu integrated itself with Windows heh..03:00
illmortal1instead of being on a legitimate partition of its own.. but I could be way wrong.03:00
meanEvolution cant bind hotmail account?03:00
Jordan_Uillmortal1: First, stop trying to install grub to a partition. You almost never want to, and especially with a wubi install as grub is actually not supposed to be installed even to the mbr but rather to a file on your windows partition.03:00

mcurrananyone know how I could fix a gap in my partition numbering scheme?  I removed a partition with gparted (/dev/sda2), that I was going to install OS X on, but I needed the space on my Windows 7 partition (/dev/sda1).  I want to now have /dev/sda3 to correct itself to /dev/sda2...  I read online that GParted might not renumber, but fdisk does, so I'm creating another /dev/sda2 and will delete it with fdisk and see if that works,03:39
mcurranbut let me know if you have any better suggestions, because this is taking forever03:39

smwOnix3232, read the install howto and we will help if you run into probems04:16
Jordan_Uillmortal: Wow, that's a lot of disks.04:17
Onix3232Ok, hold on, Ill go get the error msg04:17
illmortalya... should be 5 hard drives total04:17
smwSaik, he asked if it would be easier for someone new. I know some people like KDE more, I used to be one of them ;-).04:17
illmortalJordan_U ^04:17
hiexpoyes it tells you thatin the tutorial i sent you is the first command copy and paste them in terminal qcjn204:17
SaikOnix3232, installing is pretty straight-forward what part are you having trouble with?04:17
qcjn2hiexpo, ok, thanks04:17
Saiksmw, I like xfce,but tat's just me :P04:17
smwSaik, icewm ftw04:18
illmortali have both Ubuntu and Windows 7 on an SSD.. otherwise it would have been 4 HDDs :P04:18
Saiksmw, and yes, kde would beeasir for someone new, because of the windows mentality04:18

Saikhey guys. anyone with a Dell Dimension E310 that can help me with unlocking the SYSTEM password?04:18
skullboysomeone explain the output of fbset to me im trying to forge it04:18
Jordan_Uillmortal: According to that output you don't have any Wubi install.04:19
smwSaik, you mean BIOS password?04:19
Saiksmw, I believe so04:19
Saiksmw, it refuses o boot ANYTHING without it04:19
katsrchas anyone tried Amazon Instant Video on ubuntu?04:19
illmortalJordan_U o.o; I'm pretty sure that's how I installed it.. but then again I could be thinking of this laptop, assuming I did the same to my desktop =X04:19
RubenAlonzosmw, i have read that maybe some aspects of kubuntu may not be as stable as ubuntu. BUT that may have been a biased review, also i am totally new to ubuntu having only 2 days experience on my personal netbook, and installation was flawless with everythiing working except the built in sd card reader.04:19
katsrci know Netflix doesn't work because of the Moonlight dependency04:20
armyantsSaik: google coreboot flashrom04:20
Saikhm?04:20
smwSaik, it normally involves opening up the hardware and flipping the switch04:20
illmortalJordan_U: how do we go about fixing this issue if it's not installed via Wubi, rather on it's own partition? (sdd2)04:20
hiexpoSaik, if it's your lappy you should no the pasword right04:20
Onix3232When I try to boot my computer using ubuntu  it says 'ISOLINUX 4.01 debian-20100714 ETCD' and doesnt go any farther... What am I doing wrong/how do I get past this?04:20
smwSaik, that information can be obtained from the manufacturer (or their website)04:20
RubenAlonzoso hopefully the i use ubuntu netbook remix, the better acquainted i will be04:20
Saikhiexpo, I'm FIXING the pc, it's not mine04:20
smwSaik, armyants was kidding.04:20
armyantsSaik: did you steal it?04:21
xrdodrxI figured out how to share my ubuntu desktop but how do I access other remote desktops???04:21
Saikarmyants, no.. I'm fixing it. I'm a tech (well, amature, but yea..)04:21
Jordan_Uillmortal: Follow this guide: http://grub.enbug.org/Grub2LiveCdInstallGuide04:21
Saikand who sid it was a laptop?04:22

smwSaik, http://www.tech-faq.com/reset-dell-bios-password.html google is god.04:22
armyantsSaik: ah, cool04:22
KimKOK, I'm getting closer, I think xrandr is what I'm looking for. Anyone around that has used xrandr to scroll/pan a larger screen than would have fit on their display?04:22
Jordan_Uillmortal: When you are booted into Ubuntu again run "sudo dpkg-reconfigure grub-pc" and select sdd as an install device for grub (and make sure *no* partitions are selected). This is an important step as it will prevent this problem from occuring again.04:23
illmortalok Jordan_U, thank you... ill be afk for a few minutes04:23
Jordan_Uillmortal: You're welcome.04:23
Saiksmw, you knowif all Dells use he phoenix bios?04:24
Saikthe bios on this one is Phoenux + 1.10 A0304:24
Onix3232Also, what are you supposed to do when your MD5SUMs dont match up?04:24
SaikOnix3232, download a new CD?04:24
smwSaik, it should not matter04:24
Saiksmw, I'm hoping not lol04:25
smwyou need to switch a physical jumper04:25
Saikwell, time to tear this PC apart then :P04:25
Onix3232But I downloaded it from the ubuntu website... shouldnt it be fine?04:25
SaikOnix3232, did you torrent it?04:25
smwSaik, on the only computer I had to do that to, it has a nice switch :-P.04:25
Saiksmw, 've had several PCs and none of them have been nice lol04:26
Onix3232No, I got it from http://www.ubuntu.com/desktop/get-ubuntu/download04:26
RubenAlonzofor anyone that has installed ubuntu netbook remix 10.10, either Acer One or eMachines em250, have you had issues with getting the built-in card reader to work or even be recognized?04:26
hiexpoOnix3232, if the md5sum is not correct download it again04:26

Onix3232theres nothing else i can do? im reluctant to download bittorrent on my friends laptop04:28
smwOnix3232, download it again?04:29
RubenAlonzoif he has ubuntu, use transmission for torrents04:29
smwOnix3232, utorrent is a better torrent software anyways :-P04:29
RubenAlonzoor if he has windows, i like utorrent, its very light and works fine04:30
smwOnix3232, anything is better than bittorrent ;-)04:30
Saiknow if ony O could figure out how to take this desktop apart lol04:30
Onix3232I've tried it 3 times, none have matched... Is there something I can do to increase the odds of it coming out right?04:30
Saikonly I *04:30
SaikOnix3232, use utorrent04:30
smwOnix3232, it maybe that the md5s are wrong04:30
qcjn2hiexpo, this real nice and great explain. But i don't understand the part of a back up, just   after the "make"04:31

smwOnix3232, there are many mirrors. one may be out of sync?04:33
qcjn2hiexpo,  sudo checkinstall --pkgname=x264 --pkgversion "2:0.`grep X264_BUILD x264.h -m1 | \04:33
qcjn2hiexpo, what i understand, is that it made a .deb package04:33
Onix3232Alright, I'll try a mirror, and then if that doesn't work I'll try a torrent. Thanks for the help everyone.04:34
qcjn2hiexpo, i don't know why, and in terminal, it says it can be remove with dpkg -r x26404:34
hiexpoqcjn2, oh ok yes it uses checkinstall which creates a deb file which is cool cause you can use it to install later if need be ith   >   but before you do that command open synaptic and check all and type checkinstall and install it first04:35
Saiksmw, still seeking system password04:35
smwSaik, did you switch the jumper?04:36
Saiksmw, ye04:36
Saikyea*04:36
hiexpoqcjn2, oh did you already havecheckinstall installed04:36
smwSaik, did you turn it on after switching the jumper?04:36
Saiknope that's probably what I forgot lol04:36
qcjn2hiexpo, from what i understand, is that if there would be any problem , i could re install this deb file.04:37
qcjn2hiexpo, what is check install04:37
illmortal1Jordan_U awesome I was able to get back onto my Ubuntu... but that command that I needed to type.. it popped up the Grub configuration window.. and I accidentally hit Enter where it read, "command line"... not sure if I was supposed to type something in there or not...04:37
Blueleafk04:37
smwSaik, don't forget to switch back the jumper afterwards04:37
hiexpoqcjn2, it says that cause it has mad a deb file and used the deb file to install it04:37
qcjn2hiexpo, is checkintall an app for checking install04:37
qcjn2hiexpo, ok.04:38
Jordan_Uillmortal1: You didn't need to change anything there.04:38
qcjn2hiexpo, it already used it, to install04:38
kevdogno checkinstall is for making a psuedopackage like an apk04:38
hiexpoqcjn2, !checkinstall04:38
illmortal1oh.. ok. I used this this command: sudo dpkg-reconfigure grub-pc but nowhere did it mention a device to select =X  Jordan_u04:38
kevdogPersonally I think checkinstall sucks, and I would just do a sudo make install since in my experience it breaks thing04:39
hiexpoqcjn2, ok than you already had checkinstall or one of the commands had you install it i don'tremember it   but good04:39
qcjn2kevdog, apk, is for apt-get ??, anyway, it s a package04:39
smwSaik, did it work?04:39
Saiksmw, seems that just disables the password, but I just switched it back04:39
kevdog?04:39
Jordan_Uillmortal1: Can you pastebin the output of "debconf-show grub-pc"?04:40
qcjn2hiexpo, ok, then , i ll just continue04:40
Saikand yea it did :)04:40
illmortal1sure will, Jordan_U04:40
hiexpoqcjn2, es04:40
hiexpo^yes04:40
kevdogis someone compiling from source04:40
RubenAlonzobrb, gotta turn something off real quick04:40
smwSaik, of course it "just disables the password". What more did you want?04:40
xrdodrxI figured out how to share my ubuntu desktop but how do I access other remote desktops (I already installed tightvnc)?04:41
kevdogyea and sorry -- I meant a .deb not apk04:41
intokwhy is it impossible to take a screenshot of movie player/totem?04:42
Saiksmw: well, what I meant was it does't seem like it would mater lol04:42
Saikodd.. I switched it back and it's still disabled?04:42
smwSaik, it is used to clear the password. Not disable it.04:43

luisgood evening everyone04:49
illmortal1I closed it after you told me that I didn't need to make any changes there, Jordan_U04:49
illmortal1But it did warn me that the terminal was in the middle of the processes when I attempted to close it, Jordan_U04:49

illmortal1oh crap...04:50
illmortal1can I re-run the same command again? Or will it cause an issue?04:51
Magizianhttp://os.hopto.org/04:51

A while ago Ubuntu 10.10 had issues with some xserver stuff when upgrading, so I was recommended some commands that held those specific packages back. The issue has been fixed for a while, but I'm not sure how to reenable these xserver packages again. Any ideas?05:01

rwwapiechowski_: Password hashes are stored in /etc/shadow. They're hashed with SHA-256 on Ubuntu 10.10, if memory serves. Assuming a strong password, reversing this hash is computationally infeasible.05:37

mrkrrtftecinx3, it isn't that kind of suspend.08:05
tonysanI partitioned the usb disk to /dev/sdb1 sdb208:05

tonysanDr_Willis: Will that make the usb bootable?08:05

airtonixecinx3: when i want to use a pen, i also use paper08:26
Dr_Williseto:  with the old grub - you edit /boot/grub/menu.lst and add it to the end of the kernel line.08:26
Dr_Willisor edit the proper line to make it the default for all kernels.08:26
jiltdili have two OS installed on my  virtual box and i wand to acess these two via ssh through my host how to do this as both of guest OS have same ip adress?08:26
Dr_Willisgrub2 = you would edit /etc/default/grub eto .08:27
Abhijitis there any frontend for rsnapshot?08:27
Dr_Willisjiltdil:  you can run 2 instances of vbox. and let each os have its own ip. and then if your network is set right. they see each other as if they were on a lan.08:27
jiltdilDr_Willis: two instances means?08:28
Dr_WillisYou can set up vbox network settings where each guest, and the host os. all appear as if they were on the lan also.08:28
Dr_Willisjiltdil:  run it twice...08:28
ecinx3lol airtonix but with one note it automatically puts the time I did the notes and  it's organized . I have tons of physical notebook and don't know where anything is at.08:28

jiltdilDr_willis:how to do this   set up vbox network settings where each guest, and the host os. all appear as if they were on the lan also means all guest OS and host can acess each other ? how to set up this?08:29
ebaheto, you would open /etc/grub.d/40_custom, add a menu entry including your perameter and then run sudo update-grub. You can get your current menu entry by looking at /boot/grub/menu.1st08:30
jiltdilDr_willis: should i set up virtual box network in bridge mode08:30
ecinx3airtonix: that is a personal problem, true. But onenote takes care of that fine.  I just wish I can have linux  apps and use onenote simultanous.. I don't know if I should remove ubuntu,(kubuntu in my case) all together and just run it virtualized. I have 8GB memory if that helps any .08:30
airtonixecinx3: i wouldn't08:31
airtonixecinx3: virtualised windows is easier to rollback when it gets viruses08:31

Pethinesure fisrt mac minis were ppcs. I really dont understand the issue itself. I figured this was just a package problem.09:14

StepNjumpGuys, I am using claw mail and I am trying to move the folder where all the mail resides. How can I tell the software that my mail is now located elsewhere?09:18
leaveboy/wc/c09:18
Dr_Williseto:  i must be overlooking somthing. I dont see in either of those url's where it mentions a kernel option needed. just editing of the fstab.09:18
Dr_Williseto:  with the updates to ext4. im not even sure its really needed these days either.09:19
PethineDoc, can post the text Im seeing in the error.09:20
PethineI read a read today that some one had installed it and had it working.09:20
PethineIf possible (and I know you are a busy man) can you explain to me whats going on so I better understand.09:21
Dr_Willisif some archive servers are not working. You could weich servers.09:21
Dr_Willisthere may be some down due to the problems in the pacific.09:21
Pethinewow far reaching isent it.09:22
Pethinehow do I try switching servers09:22
Dr_Willisyou edit your /etc/apt/sources.list but ive rarely needed to ever change. :) middle of the USA here.09:22
PethineOk I opened that with nano09:23
CherishWhat ' s the difference between added INIT=/sbin/init at kernel boot command line or not?09:23
Dr_Willisback it up first Pethine  :) always s good idea.09:23
Dr_Willis init is noprmally the first process started by the kernel i think..09:24
Dr_Willisso init=/sbin/init is the same as the default i would belive.09:24
Pethinewill do09:24
Dr_WillisI seem to have a few servers down or slow to respond also Pethine09:24
Pethinewhat server should I add, what line, and any commands in front?09:24
flexyupgraded 10.04 to 10.10, now my laptop stays nearly every boot at cpu freq governor performance. IE, /etc/init.d/ondemand seems not to get processed. But it has rights to run, there is symlink in /etc/rc2.d/ to it. I don't get why it fails to run.09:25
Dr_Williswhat ones are giving you the issue Pethine ? theres country codes that can be used to point to specific servers09:25
CherishIt is different。。。。09:25
StepNjumpGuys, I am using claw mail and I am trying to move the folder where all the mail resides. How can I tell the software that my mail is now located elsewhere?09:25

CherishAnyone know how upstart work?09:27
Dr_Willis!upstart09:27
ubottuUpstart is meant to replace the old Sys V Init system with an event-driven init model.  For more information please see: http://upstart.ubuntu.com/09:27
Dr_WillisCherish:  services ran from /etc/init/   basically.  Not really seen any good 'beginner' docs on upstart yet.09:28
Pethinewould like to se xbmc working at some point first heh09:28
CherishIt's not clear09:28
Dr_WillisPethine:  with boxee i just downlaoded the deb and did a 'sudo gdebi boxee.deb' and got it gong here.  of course xbmc was just a 'sudo apt-get install xbmc' also once i setup the boxee ppa.09:28

Dr_Willisupstart is the service handler.. so yes. init eventually calls upstart.09:31
Jordan_UCherish: Dr_Willis: /sbin/init *is* upstart.09:31
CherishIf I added INIT=/sbin/init at kernel boot command line, it could boot smooth, IF not ,I will get an error, and should manual goto tty2 to login.09:32
CherishSo I don't think they are same.09:33

ubottuphoenixsampras: Ubuntu, like any other Linux distribution, has firewall capabilities built-in. The firewall is managed using the 'ufw' command - see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UFW | An alternative to ufw is the 'iptables' command - See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/IptablesHowTo | GUI frontends such as Firestarter/Gufw (Gnome) or Guarddog (KDE) also exist.10:27

r4yI am looking at the settings, but there is also a file that  believe is the config file for recordmydesktop under the home directory10:43
Dr_Willisopen 50 apps? i think youneed to reconsider your 'work flow'10:43

WipsterHi all, a friend has powerline networking but cant make it detect the network in linux. The adapter is working fine if ethernet is connected straight to the router, and the powerline is working fine if windows is used but linux doesn't like it. Any ideas?10:44

mintuxthe flash plugin doesn't have sound in my firefox . what's wrong ?10:45
AcePreshawThe network applets10:45
Dr_WillisWipster:  it maybe the adaptor needs special drivers in linux. does ifconfig even show a network card? does dmesg even mention it..10:45
zs1otbwhere do I set gnome file browser to automatically play mp3 upon mouseover10:45
soreauAcePreshaw: Do you see the network icon and the wifi aps in the list?10:45
r4yWhat can display be changed to?, I tried reading the online instructions but didn't make sense to me at all10:46
Dr_Williszs1otb:  i think theres an extra package you install, then thats under the preview settings in the gnome file manager10:46
r4ycan it be 1024x76810:46
r4yhow?10:46
soreaur4y: What error does it give?10:46
zs1otbmy machine does it bu my wifes machine not so I wondered where to look, I'll have a look to see which package10:46
WipsterDr_Willis, from what he has told me its ethernet from the linux computer into the powerline device so its juat acting as a physical layer. The ethernet on the ubuntu machine works if connected directly.10:46
zs1otbyou don't prhaps know which package10:46
phoenixsamprasoh well, its a pitty to know that Ubuntu Doesnt support officially hibernation as marketed :(10:47
r4yThis is from the error log: http://paste.ubuntu.com/579681/10:47
r4yhold up10:47
soreauphoenixsampras: Its a finicky feature. Some machines are better at it, other machines, no code can fix it10:47
Dr_WillisWipster:  i 2would check the forums for that exact device.    Ive never touched one. :) they seem a neat idea. but ive heard they can have big issues10:48
Dr_WillisWipster:  plug it in. check dmesg, check ifconfig, try pinging the router..  wouldbe the first steps.10:48
r4yimproper window specification which is exit status 281610:48
brontosaurusrexWipster, Dr_Willis it works here, but i have : router > adapter > switch > machine1, machine210:48
WipsterDr_Willis, yeh same I had wondered if the stack was more prone to errors of timeouts in linux and the rate control is backing off more then in windows10:49
Dr_Willisphoenixsampras:  often its the bios makers that have their own flakey buggy hibernate issues.10:49
soreaur4y: My guess is youre passing some wrong arg10:49
Dr_Willisphoenixsampras:  or you need more swappartion size.10:49
r4yplease take your time and answer other people's questions which are more important, I really have a lot of time, I am not kidding10:49
phoenixsamprasDr_Willis: i have 12 gb Ram10:50
Dr_Willisphoenixsampras:  and your swap size is ?10:50
phoenixsamprasDr_Willis: like 8gb10:50
Dr_Willisphoenixsampras:  that may be the issue...10:50
brontosaurusrexWipster, Dr_Willis actualy: router > adpater1 > adapter2 > switch > machines10:51
Dr_WillisI would make a swap partion of at least 12gb and perhaps bigger..  like 16+GB  and see if it works.10:51
r4yThis is what I believe to be the config file for recordmydesktop http://paste.ubuntu.com/579695/10:51
jwtiyarDr_Willis, if i do apt-get remove packagename the apt-get install packagename it will save in var/cache/apt?10:51
Dr_Willisjwtiyar:  if it redownloads it.. it caches it there.. yes10:52
Dr_Willisjwtiyar:  apt-get has a option to just download...10:52
lotuspsychjer4y: did you try xvidcap screencapture yet?10:52
Wipsterbrontosaurusrex, thanks perhaps the powerline in his case is not sending a link up or negotiated and the switch is sorting you out in that regard10:52
Dr_Willisno need to remove/reinstall10:52
r4ywhat's that?10:52
r4yO, it's a different program10:52

BaKeRno fun ubuntu it top linux but shure hell to get running smooth12:27
Dr_Willisive very few issues with it BaKeR .. your issue sounds like it may be more hardware related then software..12:27
coz_yuzodo,  you want the hex number for that color?12:27
Dr_Willisbut fitureing out what hardware.. may be the trick.12:27
iwois there any way to run an app in a debug sandbox or something?? i need some way of seeing what went wrong when my system hangs :\12:28
Crush_coz_ thanks, I've tried looking all over google, can find them for mp3 etc, but nothing for changing the tags on video12:28
yuzodocoz_, I'm in the gtkrc file and I wanna change the orange but idk what the orange is and where i can find it in the file :D12:28

coz_yuzodo,  ah not sure I havent looked in there but it may be a hex number in which case it would be    #EB754512:29
BaKeRwhy would it be caused by hardware? the only thing i did was set sync to vblank and uncheck detect refresh rate12:29
yuzodook coz_, and is there also a value to make the borders 0px?12:29
Dr_WillisBaKeR:  if you power off... and an hr later.. its flakey... but not if you power off for 10 sec... that sounds tome like some hardware cooling off/not seated properly due to heat.12:29
yuzodoactually nvm, I'm just changing it via the Appearance prefs12:30

MumrahI need to find a way to stop my panels from _occasionally_ disappearing, when I set their property to "autohide".

ThinkT510!gksudo | Guest3981114:14
ubottuGuest39811: If you need to run graphical applications as root, use « gksudo », as it will set up the environment more appropriately. Never just use "sudo"! (See http://psychocats.net/ubuntu/graphicalsudo to know why)14:14
YoinxI'm not even sure what "users,user_xattr" is doing in that mount line... I cant find them as valid options anywhere.14:14
MeanEYEGuest39811: sudo is terminal switch user do... gksu is the same only for gnome, using sudo with gedit will result in complaint on gedits part for not being able to open display14:14
llutz_Yoinx: man mount14:14
Guest39811ThinkT510, MeanEYE, i m used to sudo vi... so... :)14:14

MeanEYEGuest39811: np :D just saying :D14:15
llutz_"users" in mount options for /home is nonsense, nobody wants users being able to umount /home14:15

vesper_ya14:53
ruanjimbibob1: you're in a grub recovery console, not ubuntu recovery mode14:53
bastidrazormrdeb: make it do a fsck if the boot fails. my wife has powered my 10.04 box off multiple times and its always booted back14:53
Yoinxvesper, check your file associations14:53
MeanEYEvesper_: please don't spam, bot might kick you... did you try right clicking and seeing in preferences what is the default program to open file with14:53
genewitchjimbibob1: you're not booted into ubuntu yet, grub is a bootloader14:53
genewitch!info grub14:53
ubottugrub (source: grub): GRand Unified Bootloader (Legacy version). In component main, is optional. Version 0.97-29ubuntu60 (maverick), package size 396 kB, installed size 924 kB (Only available for i386 kfreebsd-i386 hurd-i386 amd64 kfreebsd-amd64 lpia all)14:53
vesper_ya14:53
bastidrazor!fsck14:53
ubottufsck is the FileSystem ChecKer, which runs automatically when you boot if you didn't shutdown cleanly. Type "man fsck" for information on running it manually. The command "sudo shutdown -F -r now" will force a reboot and a filesystem check; "sudo touch /fastboot" will skip a filesystem check at next reboot14:53
vesper_its all the smae as before14:53
MeanEYEvesper_: every single file is opened with totem or just media files?14:54
Bruce_WayneHey guys, is there any way to call a python script automatically when we log in?14:54
jimbibob1ruan: ahhh sorry, im new to this where do i go from here, or is this gonna get long winded?14:54
MeanEYEBruce_Wayne: you can pretty much put anything in System -> Preferences -> Startup Applications14:54
Bruce_WayneMeanEYE: It doesn't work like that.. I don't know why14:54
neil_dBruce_Wayne: yes.  put in the 'startup applications'14:55
MeanEYEBruce_Wayne: make sure you set +x (executable) on that script14:55
ruanjimbibob1: i think you'll need to boot a livecd and repair grub14:55
mrdebbastidrazor: how do you run the check in root safe mode14:55
Bruce_WayneMeanEYE: It is already14:55
vesper_@Yoinx: how to check file associations14:55
MeanEYEBruce_Wayne: does script has #!/usr/bin/env python as frist line?14:55
jimbibob1ruan: thanks, ill give it a go :)14:55
Bruce_WayneMeanEYE: It's not my coding.. let me check for that Shebang14:56

llutz_that fsck-factoid is wrong, "shutdown -F " won't work with ubuntu since years.14:56
Yoinxvesper, you can find them in ubuntu tweak if you have it installed.14:56
bastidrazormrdeb: sudo touch /forcefsck   then reboot, afterwards remove /forcefsck14:56
Matissehow do I find out which files are added when installing a certain package?  apt-cache <smth.> package  ?14:56
MeanEYEllutz_: shutdown does work, just needs sudo14:56
Yoinx...probably the easiest way since it provides them all in a list like windows does.14:56
llutz_MeanEYE: shutdown -F won't work14:57
neil_dMatisse: you can find out via synaptic.14:57
Matissellutz, read-edid  cant be called by the command read-edid  :)14:57
mrdebremove how14:57
MeanEYEllutz_: I don't see -F in flags14:57
bastidrazormrdeb: sudo rm /forcefsck14:57
Bruce_WayneMeanEYE: what should I write in the command section?14:57
llutz_MeanEYE: thats what i say. it was an option for shutdown, until ubuntu "patched" it14:57
MeanEYEBruce_Wayne: python /path/to/script.py14:58
bastidrazormrdeb: those commands will make a file then delete it.  the command 'touch' just makes a file14:58
Matisseneil_d, thx14:58

neil_di have a raid 1 setup doing something strange here... md0 is used by the system (/var & /home) ...  md1 is a swap partition ... md2 is a data partition ... both drive are in a hot swap caddy... so as a test I removed one (while the system is going)... but only 1/3 (md0) is indicated as having a failed partition ... anyone know why?  I have created a small file on md214:59
nerdshellI can see in wikipedia that the latest kernel is 2.6.37.3, and i have an older one, why update manager didn't notice about that?14:59
ruannerdshell: different distros use different kernel versions14:59
Dr_Willisnerdshell:  the latest kernel from kernel.org is not  always the latest in ubuntu.14:59
Dr_Willisnerdshell:  you will proberly find MOST things in ubuntu are not the latest version.15:00
MeanEYEnerdshell: it's not wise to install kernels from other repositories than ubuntus because they are tested to ensure stability15:00
nerdshellMeanEYE: this is what take so long, no?15:00
josecomo estas?15:01
genewitchneil_d: because you only removed one partition?15:01
MeanEYEnerdshell: yeah, ubuntu has to consider business users as well15:01
genewitchneil_d: apt-get dist-upgrade15:01
Bruce_WayneMeanEYE: I'll be back after reboot.. I presume this will work..15:01

Crash1hdugg I canceld a check and now I am no longer able to see the hdd I can see it in the Disk utility but not in gparted help15:02
neil_dgenewitch: I removed the whole drive, so all partitions on that drive should be failed, I would think.15:02
mneptokCrash1hd: run the fsck again15:02
YoinxYeah nerdshell , if they update to a newer kernel before they've ensured stability... and your home computer crashes, well it sucks. If they do it, and a business shuts down because of crashes... now they'e costing people money. They try to avoid that.15:02

genewitchneil_d: i don't think you understand how raid works. you took out 1 drive with 1 partition15:03
YoinxYou can always compile your own kernel, and run ubuntu on it... But you may experience...odd... behavior. (you can always choose the older kernel in grub though)15:03

madsjwhat's the trick to get this fixed?15:05
jiltdilwhay is in some system there is /sda or /hda15:05
genewitchneil_d: raid is multiple drives. if you "created a small file" on one of your drives, it's not a raid. you can't control where files go with RAID. There are other ways to do that... (LVM) Raid is redundant. removing one drive shouldn't mess up the others. that's the whole point.15:05

IzshaHi there.  I have installed Ubuntu on my laptop before without problems, but have gone back to Win7 due to program compatibility issues.  However, I have tried installing 10.10 today, and everything is fine except for my wireless.  It says that I am connected, but I can do no web browsing at all.  However, the odd thing is that I was able to download updates during the install, and download...15:41
Izsha...them from the update manager on a different install.  Any ideas?15:41
vlaarwzrdsg is the driver in use too?15:41
hiexpoThinkT510, ya it was comflicting with totem gstreamer15:41
ikoniaIszak: ok, if you want to access that share you need to "mount" it15:41
diogo_79man you are a saver15:41
ubuntu10ikonia: when i try to install something like kde-full or try to update it says insert media cd..blahblahblah15:41
xenMeanEYE, yea i googled stuffz later on... and found out tat its there in the repository itself15:41
wzrdsgit says it is15:41
diogo_79thanks a lot15:41
MeanEYExen: did this "plugin" asked for password before installing?15:41
Iszakikonia, okay right I can man that, how do I view my bookmarks to other drives/servers?15:41
Savage^iszak what's the shortcut?15:42
xenMeanEYE, nope...15:42
ikoniaubuntu10: ok, that means the ubuntu CD is currently in the source.list as a repo, remove it, re-run apt-get update then install15:42
ThinkT510hiexpo: i'm a vlc man myself, can't stand totem, good work15:42
MeanEYExen: yea it did, anyway, file is somewhere in your system, no clue where...15:42
IszakSavage^, it's just one you create when connecting to a network server.15:42
ubuntu10ikonia: how would i do that?15:42
MeanEYExen: problem probably isn't with that plugin but I'd still remove it15:42
Savage^well there any many ways to 'connect to a server'15:42
xenMeanEYE, damn... i've tried everything to figure this out... :(15:42
ikoniaIszak: bookmarks on your windows machine ?15:42

JernejL_i have a odd problem i can't figure out, how would i.. grep a text file and see if some sequence of lines appears in it?15:43

Iszakikonia, they've got to be stored somewhere.15:43
hiexpoThinkT510, yes me to but some of the videos online are wmv so kinda forced to using it15:43

ActionParsnipIzsha: in ubuntu try to ping your routers internal IP (most home grade stuff uses 192.168.0.1). You should also head into device manager and disable power management on the network devices as well as disable the ability for the network devices to wake up the PC16:07

tim167_hi, how can i play a video file with "video/x-gst-fourcc-m2v1 decoder" ???16:58
ikoniaKrabbe: don't worry, I saw the mistake, I understand now16:59
ActionParsnipilter: just use:   sudo -i16:59
Dr_Willistim167_:  try vlc and mplayer with the proper codecs (w32codecs)16:59
ilterikonia: Thank you, i jknow sudo. But unfortunately i can't chmod for a file by "sudo chmod ..".16:59
Krabbeilter what file is it and where?16:59
ActionParsnipilter: yes, thats how you would chmod a file which isnt yours16:59
Dr_Willisi use sudo chmod ... all the time..16:59
ikoniailter: what is the exact comment you are using16:59
tim167_thanks Dr_Willis, it's a Apple video though, i'll try...16:59
Krabbetim167_ a MOV file? VLC should play it anyways.17:00
Dr_Willistim167_:  if vlc cant play it...  its proberly got some nasty DRM on it17:00
ActionParsniptim167_: try gnome-mplayer :)17:00
influx6tim167_: as far apple files are concern  vlc will play it all17:00
AnubArackHow can I enable the multimedia keys on my keyboard ? (mostly with Rythmbox)17:00
tim167_influx6: vls doesnt play it17:00
MeanEYEAnubArack: there should be a plugin for that17:00
Dr_WillisAnubArack:  gnome keyboard settings dialog has options to map them to specific features.17:00
ActionParsnipAnubArack: if you run:  xev   do the keys create events?17:01
influx6tim167_: also ensure you have installed all codecs,go into synaptic  n search gor gstreamer plugins u will see those with multiverse,ugly,nice, install them all17:01
davideThinkT510, ActionParsnip : so I don't simply have to edit /etc/default/grub as described in all the documentation?  I have to edit the files in /etc/grub.d/  ?17:01
smwAnyone know how to change max_user_watches permanently? (/proc/sys/fs/inotify/max_user_watches)17:01
davidels17:01
davideoops17:01
pentesteranyone try natty yet?17:01
tim167_influx6: thanks, i'll try17:01
ikoniasmw: you can put it in systcl17:01
Jasonn!natty | pentester17:01
ubottupentester: Natty Narwhal is the codename for Ubuntu 11.04, due April 28 2011 - Help and support (only) in #ubuntu+1 - Natty is unstable and is not intended for production systems.17:01
AnubAracklol, all of a sudden they work :|17:01
smwikonia, where is that?17:01
ikoniasmw: /etc/sysctl.conf17:02
smwikonia, ty17:02
ThinkT510davide: yes then issue update-grub17:02
Dr_Willistheres a lot of neat things in /etc/sysctl.conf17:02
ikoniasmw: or you can do an init script that updates /proc for you17:02
davideThinkT510, so what is the purpose of /etc/default/grub?17:02
influx6tim167_: welcome17:02
smwikonia, so what would I add?17:02
Dr_Willisdavide:  read up on the grub2 config/docs/wiki pages..17:02
ThinkT510davide: not sure, never used it myself17:02
ikoniasmw: you need to do a little research for the parameter name17:02
Dr_Willisdavide:  /etc/default/grub  settings that the grub.d scripts can read/use17:03
smwikonia, ty17:03
KoLosiema17:03
pozzi0ok17:03
davideDr_Willis, I see... I guess something is getting lost there however... because the settings are not being updated17:03
Dr_Willisdavide:  they dont get used untill you run 'update-grub'17:03
ActionParsnipdavide: you never edit grub.cfg as it is GENERATED so as soon as update-grub is ran, it will destroy the changes. You edit the scripts and config files which make the file and it will be applied and maintain your change.17:03
ActionParsnipdavide:what are you tryinig to achieve?17:04
davideDr_Willis, I've run update-grub several times... everytime I edit... but the updates don't take17:04
davidesimply change the boot order17:04
davideI would like one OS to boot by default instead of the other17:04
pozzi0i had made apt.get install pentium-builder, but my "g++ program.cpp" still doesnt work..17:04
pozzi0could someone help me?17:04
ActionParsnipdavide: do you mean windows instead of Ubuntu?17:04
davideyes17:04
Dr_Willisdavide:   check the grub2 docs/wiki theres a setting you uncomment. then you can seelct the default from a command line command.17:04
pozzi0i had made apt.get install pentium-builder, but my "g++ program.cpp" still doesnt work..17:04
tim167_influx6: i installed all gstreamer plugs i can find (good/bad/ubgly..) still no luck17:05
ActionParsnipdavide: then why didnt you say that?17:05
davideLOL cause I don't want you to think any less of me :P17:05
MeanEYEpozzi0: is that ubuntu related?17:05
Dr_Willisdavide:  making windows first is even easier..  rename /etc/grub.d/09_os-prober to be a higher #.17:05
pozzi0yes it is17:05
randomuseri have a new desktop install with a sporadically flickering display.  I dont suspect the monitor because the 'flickering' is only from the desktop, console is ok, and fullscreen games are ok.  I don't see anything jumping out in /messages or /Xorg.0.log17:05
pozzi0im in ubuntu17:05
marenostrumHello. Lucid here. Is there anybody who uses Firefox 4.0 RC (downloaded from Firefox sites) or Firefox (Minefield) 4.0b13pre from ppa? With those versions I can't view videos from Youtube site. Flash videos from some other sites are viewed. My flash player version: adobe-flashplugin 10.2.152.270lucid1 .17:05
ActionParsnipdavide: no, we wouldn't think any less of you17:05
KoLo /ame You can give me a link to the IRC17:05
davidehaha17:05
* KoLo You can give me a link to the IRC17:05
MeanEYEpozzi0: lol, ok, then form a question, use paste.ubuntu.com to give more detail what compiler says17:05
ActionParsnipdavide: if you give details, we can help. If you withold details it makes things a tonne harder17:05
ikoniaKoLo: you are in irc17:05
pozzi0iok17:06
davideI'm sorry it wasn't my intention17:06
tjiggi_fodavide, install StartupManager from Synaptic (it'll go to System >> Admin) and use that to set the order17:06
davidetjiggi_fo, I did that and set the order, and it still doesnt update17:06
ThinkT510marenostrum: i don't think we can support that here, because thats not a final release17:06
* KoLo but I wanted to link to the IRC17:06
ilterikonia:  The file is on my external hd.17:06
ikoniaKoLo: you are IN irc now17:06
davideDr_Willis, all I have in grub.d is 00_header    10_os-prober  30_memtest86+  README 05_debian_theme  20_linux      40_custom17:07
ThinkT510marenostrum: perhaps you ran into a bug to report to mozilla or #ubuntu+117:07
ikoniailter: what is the exact command you are usingf17:07
ikoniausing17:07
mongydavide, i'd just chnage the GRUB_DEFAULT=  in /etc/default/grub to whatever the os is17:07
ActionParsnipdavide:  sudomv /etc/grub.d/30_os-prober /etc/grub.d/08_os-prober; sudo update-grub17:07
=== l is now known as Guest28487
Dr_Willis move the XX_os-prober to be a first #  /etc/grub.d/09_os-prober17:07
Dr_Willis:)17:07
davidemongy, ya been trying that for hours now17:07
gradiohow do i add an user to a group via terminal?17:07
mongydavide, so like, if windows is the 3rd one in the menu, it would be GRUB_DEFAULT=217:07
llutz_gradio: sudo adduser user group17:07
mongydavide, then sudo update-grub17:07
davidemongy yup.. it just hasn't worked17:07
davideyup done that17:07
ikoniagradio: usermod17:07
Dr_Willisthe  name to set 'GRUB_DEFAULT=' to - can be rather.. confuseing.17:07
IatagoreA question: Why does it seem that packages seem to be outdated on the repositories?17:07
mongydavide, odd, works for me17:07
ilterikonia: Now,  i copied to my local hd then i can change it's permissions.17:07
Iatagorecertain packages*17:07
ActionParsnipmongy: the default number doesn't respect new kernel installs17:07
marenostrumThinkT510, I see; OK. Just asked to be sure if I need to deal with a bug report to somewhere.17:07
gradiollutz, the user already exists17:08
ikoniailter: ok, I'm not going to help you any more as I've asked you 3 times for the exact command you are using and you have ignored it 3 times and come back with other information that I have no use for17:08
llutz_gradio: hopefully, else you can't add him to a group17:08
davideActionParsnip, I don't have 30_os-prober17:08
gradioi think usermod will do the trick, thanks ikonia17:08
davideActionParsnip, I have 10_os-prober17:08
davidejust replace it with that?17:09
llutz_gradio: man adduser17:09
ilterikonia: As i wrote before i'm using "sudo chmod 777 <file name>"17:09
ThinkT510davide: it's easier to do what Dr_Willis said regarding the grub_default17:09
ikoniailter: you did not post that,17:09
Dr_Willisdavide:  it has to be a lower # then the  10_linux one..17:10
davideoh17:10
Dr_Willisdavide:  each one of those ##_scripts gerenates Part of the grub.cfg  in order...17:10
Dr_Willisdavide:  logical eh? :)17:10
davideDr_Willis, all I have in grub.d is 00_header    10_os-prober  30_memtest86+  README 05_debian_theme  20_linux      40_custom17:10
davideso idk... what do I name it as it's already lower..17:10
judgetHi on Ubuntu 10.04 I tried to add a new user but when i try to login with that user  I get an error: Couls not Update ICEauthority17:10
Dr_Willisdavide:  so rerun sudo update-grub and see what happens. it could be your OTHER tweaking messed somthing up17:11
gawkerhello any one can help me with arpspoof?17:11
Dr_WillisMine is 09_ and windows is first here.17:11
davideso far all I've tweaked is /etc/default/grub17:11
iqpiDr_Willis: how have you added the user?17:11
marenostrumThinkT510, Thanks #ubuntu+1 is a good idea, in order to be sure of the problem before reporing to mozilla. Thanks.17:11
Dr_Willisiqpi:  ive not added any users. :)17:11
iqpiusp sorry man xD17:11
IatagoreWhat do I do when I want the newest version of software when the version on the repos is outdated?17:11

iqpijudget: how have you tried to add a new user'17:12
judgetyes thius was the new uer that I just added17:12
davidewhen I run sudo update-grub I get Searching for default file ... found: /boot/grub/default17:12
Dr_Willisdavide:  after you run update-grub, you can look at the grub.cfg and see what order they are in.17:12
davidewhat is that file17:12
marenostrumThinkT510,  I got it. Thanks a lot.17:12
Over-LifeHey17:12

georgie_bin .vimrc file "au FileType c set makeprg=gcc\ % " settings writes the output to a.out file .. how to get it to write to filename.op17:13
georgie_b?17:13
davideDr_Willis, when I run update-grub shouldn't it be looking for /etc/default/grub?17:14
trismgeorgie_b: it would probably be easier to build a script that strips off the .c extension and then compiles it, and then use that as makeprg17:15
deft_n1xhi all, how can i remove trademark images and strings from ubuntu packages?17:15
ikoniadeft_n1x: you don't, they are there for a reason17:15
georgie_b@trism as in it can retrieve the file name without the extension using %:r but how to use the got filename to write the output into17:15
trismgeorgie_b: on it that case, just add -o %:r to the line17:16
judgetsooo the original user is the only one I have on this system when i try to add a user i get that error regarding ther ICEauthority17:17

judgetyes several times17:18
onelinerso i ve installed python 3.2 but python --version still reports as 2.6.6, what am i missing?17:18
pozzi0that he missed g++17:18
pozzi0and i made17:18
pozzi0apt-get install pentium-builder17:18
davideDr_Willis, in the /boot/grub.cfg it says that those menu entries should be /etc/grub.d/10_linux, /etc/grub.d/20_memtest86+ /etc/grub.d/30_os-prober.... but those titles don't match the actual files that are in grub.d17:18
pozzi0coz he said that it will be ok17:18
pozzi0with it17:18
davideDr_Willis, I have 10_os-prober, 20_linux...17:19
judgetin the past i thought when u made a new user the home directrory structure was created automatically including a Desktop folder and others as well17:19
ThinkT510oneliner: what does python3 --version tell you?17:19
a931bwHello, could anyone explain me diffirence between Router and switch17:19
panfistis it possible to integrate with the file browser the ability to mount files that i've dumped from partitions using dd17:19
Dr_Williscat /boot/grub/grub.cfg  | grep BEGIN17:19
ikoniapanfist: no17:19
Dr_Willisdavide:  they match in mine.. see that cat command above to show their order17:19
trismgeorgie_b: if %:r doesn't expand to the full path, I don't know, maybe ask in #vim17:19
judgetin this system it makes the home fiolder and only  the following .profile .bashrc .bash_logout17:19
Jasonna931bw: Router splits the connection between a number of computers, while a switch determines one computer to send the connection to17:20
onelinerThinkT510: not installed, which is not the case, maybe am not registering the install properlly?17:20
RabbitbunnyJasonn: You got that backwards.17:20
Abhijita931bw, ##hardware and try wikipedia and google17:20
influx6am sorry if i was away17:20
llutz_a931bw: different layers17:20
davideDr_Willis, nope, they don't match in mine17:20

pozzi0ok, so I have installed g++with "apt.get install pentium-builder". Now, still g++ doesnt work. g++ cannot find such file or directory17:21
onelinerThinkT510: followed these , correcting url for it was a rc2 which is not valid anymore http://pythonicway.blogspot.com/2011/02/install-python-32-on-linux-ubuntu.html17:21
davideDr_Willis, that's probably why nothing is updating after I make changes17:21
georgie_b@trism i tried #vim ,but it says cannot talk to channel , nd individual users dont respond,.. is there any way to get accepted into the channel like registering or something?17:21
Dr_Willisdavide:  No idea. on clean installs - i just change that # and  poof windows is first.17:21

twistedstormmeaneye do you have any ideas?19:08
influx6cjae: you cant shrink a partition while using it,u best boot into a live system through a cd or use one of the cd partiton managers out there to do the shrinking ,would advice you to use the ubuntu dvd/cd live session and use dparted or disk utility19:08
ThinkT510Jacruth: hmm, thats odd19:08
influx6be03099205: yes you can upgrade19:08
khrmbe03099205 Well first did you try it using cd?19:08
cjaeIdleOne: is that the only way, is it cause when I stop kdm and sudo su and move off the /home for present working directory19:08
influx6be03099205:  go into terminal type  sudo update-maanger -d19:08
cjaeIdleOne: and umount still won't work19:08
ThinkT510Jacruth: how did it crash?19:08
IdleOnecjae: unmount won't work because /home is currently in use19:09
MeanEYEbe03099205: System -> Administration -> Update Manager -> Settings -> Release upgrade set to Normal releases... close and then check for updates you should see upgrade to 10.1019:09
influx6be03099205: though on normal bases it should show an upgrade button on top of your update-manager19:09

jgcampbell300hello .. I need some advice ... I am looking for a good tutorial for installing and setting up samba ldap and dns on a server I plan to make a PDC out of ... can anyone help me ... most of the info i have gathered from the net is either incorrect, outdated, or just all out hard to understand  not to mention missing things20:11
madsjis there some reason why ubuntu 10.10 messed up with ssh? when I try to login to servers which have my public key, I am requested for the password for some odd reason (wasn't in 10.04 and earlier versions)20:12
[TK]D-Fenderl0b: few manufacturers provide direct driver support, most is via the community, and "backward support" is pretty much a constant.  With newer releases you get MORE supported device,20:12

mweichertanyone know of a volume manager or filesystem with good copy-on-write snapshot support?20:15

soreau40GB out of 500, I'd be more upset about it ;)21:08
Tectusoreau, i think that the space isn't the problem, it's just gay when it mounts every time a CD, dosn't it ;)21:08

ubottusean``: Ubuntu Server Edition is a release of Ubuntu designed especially for server environments, including a server specific !kernel and no !GUI. The install CD contains many server applications. Current !LTS version is !Lucid (Lucid Lynx 10.04) - More info: http://www.ubuntu.com/products/whatisubuntu/serveredition - Guide: https://help.ubuntu.com/10.04/serverguide/C/ - Support in #ubuntu-server22:29

crlcan81Whenever I try and load multiple windows/tabs of flash content, using the Adobe flash plugin for Ubuntu 10.10 64 bit, only the last opened flash application will be active. Doesn't mater if it's Seamonkey, firefox, or Chromium. I can use them all at the same time, as they're separate plugin instances, but otherwise the Adobe flash plugin is seriously glitched. Didn't know if it's something that can be solved on my side, or if I have to22:46

edbianNewguy, You could probably save money by buying a hdd instead of a new laptop.22:57
Newguyhow would i use it as the main HD instead of a external?22:57
NewguyI have a terabyte thats doing nothing22:57
edbianNewguy, You would buy an internal hdd and replace the one that is in the machine.  (You'd need to install an Operating System on it, like Ubuntu)22:57
DiamondciteNewguy: You can either use an HDD dock via USB.. or buy a new laptop HDD for about $40?22:58
edbianNewguy, What do you mean you have a terabyte doing nothing?  A terabyte external drive?22:58
Newguyedbian yea22:58
nrikWhy in tty I have no problems with locale, but in GUI (xfce4-terminal)?22:58
edbianNewguy, Install Ubuntu on that.  Tell the bios to boot to that hdd.22:58
edbianNewguy, Of course then your laptop isn't very portable anymore.22:59
DiamondciteAlso external 1TB drive.. are not the fastest... won't compare to an internal dirve.22:59
Newguyeh i connect it to a 42" flat screen anyways22:59
DiamondciteSo it's not very portable to begin with ^_^22:59
Newguywhat if i used a firewire or wouldnt help?22:59
DiamondciteFirewire is what faster, not too much23:00
Newguyhell i could probably just rip open the casing and run a sata cable to it23:00
KimLarouxUSB 3.0 is faster than Firewire23:00
th0rNewguy: is the external a 2.5" or 3.5" drive?23:01
KimLarouxNewguy, why don't you just go shopping for a normal hard drive? they are seriously cheap23:01
DiamondciteNewguy: 3.5" and the 2.5" Sata drives DO use the same connector.. just.. do you have such a wire?23:01
Newguynot atm but i can just run to fryes or something and nab it23:01
Diamondcitewhy spend a little money when you can spend alot more just trying to connect it :)23:01
DiamondciteErr that doesn't sound right23:02
Newguylol23:02
DiamondciteI have never tried to boot from firewire.23:02
Newguywell its just a thought and a half trying to bring this laptop from the grave is all23:02
DiamondciteI can say that while the Data cable is standard for SATA drives the power might not be an issue.23:02
projdarkhow do people use headphones if there arent any drivers23:03
DiamondciteWhen I had to bring a laptop back from the grave I opted to just buy a new hard drive.23:03
Diamondciteprojdark: Most systems headphone ports work without drivers..23:03
Newguyyea which is probably what i will do but i still dont have the technical expertise to installit23:03
Diamondciteprojdark: That or the driver is already provided along with the sound card/chip drivers.23:04
greyhatsalafihard drive is easy23:04
Newguywell it couldnt hurt it anymore than it already is23:04
projdarkthe thing is, it has "clearchat pro usb" under hardware in sound23:04
DiamondciteNewguy: Assuming you can find the drive bay, it is usually 2 screws, 1 cover and 1 SINGLE connector.23:04
projdarkbut when i press test is crashes23:04
Diamondciteprojdark: Are these 3.5mm type or USB type?23:05
projdarkusb23:05

qwphi is there any reason to prefer 32bit unbuntu over 64bit ubuntu even for 64bit machines?23:05

illmortalanyone know if you can skin Rhythmbox? In other words, GUI themes? If not.... what would be the next music player?23:05

Do NOT take polls in the channel. If you insist on getting people's opinions, ask BestBot in #ubuntu-bots.23:09

Rodolfoaeon-ltd there is a new incubator build that includes an API for low level hardware acceleration and its working for windows 7...23:28
_jesse_Rummage: there is a search box on the page23:28
BlueBomber7projdark: Which step has you confused? It looks like you'll need wine, then you pull open any shell (like bash, csh, zsh, ksh, etc.) and follow his steps.23:28
Rummage_jesse_: Not that I can see.23:29
illmortaldamn there needs to be more themes for google chromium lol23:29
josh_projdark: 'shell' refers to a terminal in this case (or a vt console :] ).23:29
BlueBomber7projdark: If you have any other non-Ubuntu specific question about your issue, please PM me and I'll try to help.23:29
MeanEYEillmortal: more?23:29
_jesse_Rummage: are you looking at http://packages.ubuntu.com/ ?23:29
_jesse_it's halfway down the page23:29

mia158Hi Ubuntu'ers, I have a 10.4 disk on a dell latitude 610 laptop. When I boot the system I get a message that the disk is password protected but a authentication system. I do not think it is a BIOS issue since I already reset the eeprom today and I also transferred the disk to a second system and got the same message.23:32
arandBaKeR: sudo fsck /dev/#target#23:32
BaKeRfrom terminal23:32
edbianmia158, Where did you get this hdd?  It seems to me that there is an encrypted partition23:33
V13AxelRummage: Have you found them yet?23:34
mia158The disk had alsways been working on a laptop. My friend called me to come look at it and this is what I walked into...He is not technical so there is no way he encrypted the disk.23:34

jk09is there a way to "apt-get install" a 32bit version on 64bit ubuntu?23:35
V13AxelYou can find gstreamer and all it's utilities here: http://packages.ubuntu.com/search?searchon=names&keywords=gstreamer23:35
RubenAlonzoHey All! Woot I managed to reformat external drive as Ext4. and also installed Deluge torrent client. so far everything is working flawlessly. feels good to be a total Ubuntu noob like me but able to figure stuff out like install commands and such, really been a nice experience so far with ubuntu netbook remix 10.10 on my 'lil netbook :)23:36

* josh_ Hi-Fives RubenAlonzo23:37
RubenAlonzothanks Josh23:37
josh_We've all had our little challenges, and it's nice to get through them.23:38
zachRatty: hello23:38
[segfault]jk09: depends on what you mean by 32-bit version.  if you just want to run a 32-bit app that is giving you trouble under 64-bit Ubuntu, 'sudo apt-get install ia32-libs'23:38
RubenAlonzoI still got the windows machine but the missus uses that for facebook games and wow so this lil netbook has been awesome so far23:38
hiexpoKnowone else is having the issue when doing sudo apt-get update and upgrade     failed hash sum mismatch23:39
RubenAlonzojosh_: thats true, and i'm REALLY at ubuntu having only a couple full days experience so far since reformatting this thing23:39
RubenAlonzohiexpo: have you tried sudo apt-get install first then doing update?23:40
jk09segfault: I'm wanting to install the 32bit version of the freeimage library. I thought it would be something like: sudo apt-get install libfreeimage3 -i38623:40
hiexpoRubenAlonzo, sudo apt-get install update ?23:41
RubenAlonzojk09: try sudo apt-get install freeimage see if that works?23:41
Kilian]hi23:42
RubenAlonzohiexpo: no, first install then wait for it to do that, then  after its all done try to update it23:42
RubenAlonzohope that helps23:42
Kilian]can anyone help me and say me who is the maintainer of the whitelist to automaticly add an repository with a one-click-button ?23:43
jk09segfault: sudo apt-get install libfreeimage3 works for grabbing the 64bit version23:43
RubenAlonzoBTW, what exactly IS freeimage? whats it do?23:43
hiexpoRubenAlonzo, i don't get what your saying i am trying to update my system than do upgrade but been getting this hash sum mismatch now for 2 days23:44
jk09its a library for loading images23:44
=== Axlin|AFK is now known as Axlin
josh_hiexpo: There's nothing to crazy going on with your sources.list right?23:44
[segfault]jk09: ahh, ok.  Well, I suppose as you found, the default is to install the version that matches your current setup.  I suppose you could try it from another repo that would allow you to get the 32-bit specifically.. perhaps?23:44
josh_hiexpo: and sources.list.d o' course23:45
hiexpojosh_, thats what i am trying to find out23:45
RubenAlonzohiexpo: sorry about my advice then, only been a couple days for me in ubuntu but learning alot with getting stuff to work. is it predominantly a 32 bit application for windows? if that is the case might emulation through Wine?23:45
jk09segfault: I think i might end up making from source, thanks anyways23:45

mia158Hi peeps, I have a 10.4 disk in a dell latitude 610. I cannot boot it. A BIOS looking screen appears saying that the Primary HDD is password protected by a password authentication system. I've never seen this b4. I do not think this is at thet BIOS layer bcuz I reset the eeprom earlier today. Anyone else ever have this problem? I can move the disk to another latitude 610 that works w/m an LM disk, but23:47
mia158when I insert this password protected disk I get the same message and cannot boot it.23:47
Suit_Of_Sableswhat do you guys use to embed album art into flac files? it seems picard lacks this ability23:47
=== v_ is now known as v
[segfault]jk09: you would d/l the package from packages.ubuntu.com then use that command to install them.. didn't mean use it as an apt-sources repo.23:48
MeanEYEmia158: reseting bios won't help. business laptops often store password on hard disks themselfs so even if hard disk gets taken out no one can take the data. I think your best bet is contacting dell support and see about that. it's not related to ubuntu dvd however23:48
PolahCan someone tell me what the "%u" is after the firefox command in the default Firefox launcher on the panel?23:48
jk09segfault: I got you, trying it now. thanks :)23:49
josh_Polah: I'd assume a parameter for a url to be passed in :)23:49
hiexpojosh_, there is no etc/sources.list that i can fing23:50

MeanEYEjosh_: lol :D no need... didn't want to interrupt eariler :)23:50
mia158MeanEYE: Thanks. I pinged Dell earlier today and they said I would need to fill out the xfer of ownership doc in order to gain support from them. This is a work system that my employer gave to me since the hardwar/platofmr is a bit old an they're not longer supporting it. What is strange though is this system was working for over two years and now it's not.23:51
Polahtrism, thanks23:51
hiexpook what am i looking for that could be bad23:51
PolahAlso, would anyone know why my GNOME side panel does not display launcher icons?23:51
MeanEYEmia158: hm I have only bad experiences with dell, however my toshiba has similar technology for it's own hard drive. my guess is in worst case scenario you can just buy a different hard disk and make that machine usable again.23:52
josh_hiexpo: for that file, just make sure it contains either ubuntu's official repos or repos you authorized.23:52
josh_hiexpo: preferably, you might want to have 3rd party repo's in /etc/apt/sources.list.d/23:52
hiexpojosh_, yes only things in there are ubuntus and repos i have added23:53
mia158MeanEYE: Yep, thanks. I can pick up a new disk @ work but was pinging here to see if anyone had run into it b4...guess not and since it's an ubuntu issue I'll bail out now. thanks again23:53
MeanEYEmia158: no problem... gl with your laptop23:53
mia158sorry, not ubuntu issue23:53
jk09segfault: looks like that got it working, thanks for your help :)23:53
josh_hiexpo: hmm. Anything in /etc/apt/sources.list.d/ ?23:54

MrProper__Hi - Does anyone know how to keep wireless connected even when you are logged out of a machine? I want to leave sshd running and log in remotely, but if I logout at the actual machine it falls offline23:55
MeanEYEMrProper__: you can lock your screen23:55
MeanEYEMrProper__: that way no one will be able to access it and you'll be able to log in from remote machine23:55
andrea-lincigno23:55
josh_hiexpo: Maybe it's one of those (I have a few repo's I *should* clean out due to issues). Could you put up your apt-get update in a pastie?23:56
MrProper__I know the issue is because it needs the WPA user/pass from my keyring, its just irritating that on ethernet I could be logged out and it would work headlessly :)23:56
MrProper__Screenlock would be a workaround23:56
hiexpojosh_, sure23:56
